073. Rectify military affairs

After deciding on the plan, Cao Xin called a meeting of his generals.

Cao Xin was the general of Pingnan, supervising the military in the south and ensuring the safety of the southern line of Yuzhou.

The generals under him include Dian Wei, the commander of the Wuwei, Pei Yuanshao, the commander of the Tanma Battalion, Yu Poison, the commander of the Langya Infantry, Liao Hua, the commander of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, Liu Dashi, the commander of the Baggage Battalion, Li Dayan, the commander of the Bow and Arrow Battalion, as well as General Yu Ban and the county lieutenant Chen Lan.

The first six commanded the Langya army and auxiliary armies with a total of 3,000 troops, Yu Ban led 5,000 troops, and Chen Lan led more than 3,000 troops.

These 10,000 people belong to the regular army, and the total number is more than 20,000, including the garrison troops scattered in various county towns.

Compared with Danyang Yuan Shu, Huiji Sun Ce, Yuzhang Liu Xuan, and Jiangxia Huang Zu, Cao Xin was at a disadvantage in terms of troops.

After the generals arrived, Cao Xin briefly introduced the situation in Huainan County.

Outside, there are Yuan Shu, Qiao Rui, Sun Ce and other princes eyeing each other, and inside there are fine works, mountain bandits, and rebellious soldiers, who are sabotaging everywhere, and the Huainan clan is willing to degenerate and collude with the traitor Yuan Shu.

Internal and external troubles, the situation of Cao Jun is not optimistic.

"Ladies and gentlemen, if you have any opinions or countermeasures about the situation in Huainan, you can talk about it."

After speaking, Cao Xin glanced at the generals.

Dian Wei's face was expressionless, Yu Poison's face was expressionless, Liu Dashi's face was expressionless, Pei Yuanshao and Yu Ban frowned and pondered, Li Dayan stared with wide eyes, Chen Lan frowned, absent-minded.

No one spoke.

Seeing this situation, Cao Xin couldn't help but miss Wei Yan.

Although Wei Yan has an extreme personality, his brain is flexible, his mouth can speak, and he is also active in fighting.

"Hehe~ General, with you and Jia Changshi here, how can we give advice, we will just do what you say."

Li Dayan grinned.

"Bastard, you are a general, asking you to use your brain is training you, like you don't seek progress, how can General Ben rest assured that you can lead the troops alone."

Cao Xin said with a dark face.

"Hehe, general, the last general never thought of leading the troops alone, the last general only needs to follow the general to fight."

Li said with a hippie smile in his eyes.

Cao Xin glared at him angrily, he had no ambitions, no learning and no skills, and he was a cowardly with Cao Hong, who was under the prime minister.

"Yuan Jian!"

He looked at Liao Hua again, Liao Hua has brains, but he is young and has little experience, he is slow to think about problems, and he is not confident enough.

"General!"

Liao Hua hesitated and said, "After General Xiahou went north, our army only had 10,000 horses in Huainan, and the troops were insufficient. ”

"Yuan Jian is right, waiting to see what happens, and braking with quiet, is a suitable method for our army."

This plan is five points similar to Jia Xu's strategy, which shows that Liao Hua has used his brain.

Liao Hua smiled happily and retreated with his fists clenched.

"Who else?"

Cao Xin asked.

Pei Yuanshao clenched his fists and smiled, "General! His subordinate Tanma heard a rumor from Huainan, Jiangdong and other places, which was related to the general, and the last general did not know whether to talk about it or not. ”

"Say!"

"That's right, in the past, Huainan children cried at night, as long as the adults said that the wolf was coming, the children didn't dare to cry anymore, but now as long as they say that the general is coming, the children are so scared that they don't dare to cry."

Haha~

The generals burst into laughter.

Cao Xin's face turned dark, he can cure children crying at night, is this a compliment?

"Yuan Shao, we are talking about the military, what are you talking about?"

"General Rongyu!"

Pei Yuanshao said with a smile, "After the general led the troops to Huainan, he defeated and killed many famous generals in Huainan, the general's prestige is in Huainan and even the counties of Jiangdong, everyone knows it, even the three-year-old child knows the general's prestige, and the last general thinks that with the general here, the enemy will never dare to easily invade Huainan." ”

Pei Yuanshao meant that Cao Xin was fighting too fiercely, and with him sitting here, Yuan Shu didn't dare to single out and make trouble, so he didn't have to worry about the enemy coming.

The generals listened and nodded their heads.

Jia Xu also nodded.

His best policy also advocates waiting and seeing, waiting for the problem to come and then solve it, and leaving it alone if there is no problem, but Cao Xin wants to solve it quickly, so he has a middle strategy and a lower strategy.

Cao Xin shook his head, when he came to Huainan, he still led the troops alone, how to do it without fighting, how to earn attribute points without fighting, and how to increase resistance to one hundred.

"Yuan Shao's words are also reasonable, but it is better to take the initiative to destroy thieves in a thousand days, our army's task in Huainan is not only to stabilize a county, but also to prepare for the capture of the entire territory of Yangzhou, it is not enough to wait and see what happens, this general must first set Huainan, and then set Lujiang, take Yuzhang, capture Danyang, and control all the Huainan Jiangbei region in the hands of our army in one fell swoop."

Cao Xin clenched his fists and said.

The generals listened with different faces, some excited, some hesitant, Dian Wei and Liu Dashi were still expressionless.

"General! Our army has only more than 10,000 troops in Huainan, and the generals are outnumbered. ”

Yu Ban said with his fists clenched.

"Haha, Wen Ze reminds that General Ben also understands, so before Huainan is completely pacified, General Ben has no intention of waging war against foreign countries."

Cao Xin reassured.

——

The military discussion ended, and Cao Xin began to assign tasks.

Yu Ban is a general, equivalent to a colonel, and the highest-ranking general under him.

Cao Xin ordered Yu Ban to continue to sit in Lu'an County, defend Qiaorui and Jiangxia soldiers and horses in the west, and try to keep the five counties of Lujiang without losing.

Among the remaining generals, Pei Yuanshao led the Tanma Battalion to continue to spread news, monitor the movements of the surrounding princes, arrest the detailed work in the city, and investigate the big families and officials in the city who were connected with Yuan Shu.

Liao Hua and Chen Lan were responsible for clearing out bandits and bandits in Huainan County and maintaining law and order.

Liu Dashi was responsible for recruiting, training, and raising grain and grass.

Yu Poison and Li Dayan led the troops to inspect Shouchun and actively prepare for war.

Dian Wei was responsible for protecting the safety of the main generals Cao Xin and Chang Shi Jiaxu.

"Yes, General!"

The generals hugged their fists and retreated, only Chen Lan hesitated and stood still without moving.

"Captain Chen, what's wrong?"

Cao Xin asked, holding a teacup.

"General, during the period when the last general was on duty in Huainan, he had some dirty encounters with General Xiahou, and the last general wanted to explain to the general, mainly because..."

Without waiting for Chen Lan to say it, Cao Xin waved his hand,

"Captain Chen, you are the person recruited by General Ben, General Ben doesn't care how you behave under other generals, but here in General Ben, if you don't care about doing things, General Ben will not be spared."

"Yes, General! The last general must work hard to complete the general's task, and if there is a mistake, let the general deal with it. ”

Chen Lan said loudly, sweating slightly on her forehead.

Cao Xin nodded, asked Chen Lan to sit down and drink tea, asked the landlord about Huainan, and asked Chen Lan to go down to do things after he understood it clearly.

"Mr. Wenhe, is this arrangement appropriate?"

Cao Xin asked.

"Very proper."

Jia Xu nodded, put down his pen and said, "The general supervises the military in the south, and there should be several people in the account, engaged in, and joined the army, but now there is only one person, and the general should hire more talented people to serve as the general's military staff." ”

Jia Xu rubbed his wrists, the work of recording the meeting should have been done in the recording room, but there was no one on Cao Xin's side, so he could only be done by him, a long history, and he was in his fifties, and he was an old bone, and calling him a memory was simply bullying the elderly.

Cao Xin laughed, "Mr. Wenhe, don't worry, the people I recruited are on the way, and they will arrive in two days, and Mr. Wenhe will bring them more when the time comes." ”

Jia Xu said yes and breathed a sigh of relief.

"General, Huainan County Shou Yang Hong asks to see you."

Dian Wei shouted at the door.

"Haha, just in time, General Ben was about to talk to him."

Cao Xin walked out of the hall and personally went out to greet him.
