Chapter 51: Preparing for War
Looking at their distant figures, Cheng Feng couldn't calm down in his heart for a long time, the emperor himself is so noble, what a high-ranking title, but now Cheng Feng looked at Emperor Han Ling, and sighed infinitely, this is a person in his thirties, he should be full of vitality and hope for the future, but now he is so helpless, it is really unthinkable, are those last emperors inactive? I'm afraid not, it should be caused by not being able to control the court situation, and there is no military power in his hands, after all, since he can be the emperor, he must have a specialty, now look at Emperor Ling's arrangements and means, this person is not an ordinary person, but a person who can't resist the wheel of history, and finally drowned in the rolling red dust. After seeing the figure, Cheng Feng no longer sighed, but hurried back to prepare, since His Majesty wants the heads of the three Zhang Jiao brothers, then he has to plan well, after all, there are more than 200,000 Yellow Turban troops in Jizhou, that's not for fun, if something happens, he has to be in a hurry for a while, now his own Changshan is not many generals, at this time Cheng Feng is extremely hopeful that Zhang He and Zhao Yun are all there, so that they can take Guangzong in one go!
Since Emperor Ling left, Cheng Feng has often been thinking about what he has done recently, to see what he has missed, no, now he has a lot of soldiers, according to His Majesty's meaning, he is the last person to pick peaches, in this way, he has to calculate, otherwise he not only can't pick peaches, but also may become the person who works for others, Cheng Feng carefully calculated, he now has an army of 100,000, which is all after layers of selection, the final determination of the troops, These people are all selected according to the standards of Chengfeng, and are currently training under the supervision of Zhang Liao, modern military training and weapons built by the iron battalion, it is estimated that Zhang Jiao will cry for a while, as for the special forces selected by Chengfeng, there are only two prototypes at present, one is his own Praetorian Legion God of War, and the other is the original 8,000 veterans led by Zhang Liao, but now they have gone out to train under the leadership of Zhang He Xu Shu, but there has been no news since they went out, and it is estimated that they should come back now, After all, the decisive battle with the Yellow Turban Army is about to begin! Thinking of this, I hope to have a few mobile phones, this communication is too inconvenient, it seems that I still have to train a group of carrier pigeons, but I am not proficient in these, I can only see if anyone understands this! Chengfeng saw that it was not too early, so he stopped thinking about it, and waited for tomorrow later, and Zhang Liao Tianyu and them discussed, there are many people and ideas, after all, he doesn't have much experience in this matter, and now these things are all his own thoughts, as for the implementation, it is Tian Yu's business!
"What people! Hold it! Zhang Liao shouted at the head of the city, and at the same time was shocked, why did so many people quietly come to the city wall, and he didn't even find out, this is really undeserved. While shouting, Zhang Liao waved his hand, telling the people on the city wall to be ready with bows and arrows, and if there was any movement below, shoot directly.
"Haha, General Zhang, don't come unharmed!" Xu Shu laughed and hurriedly said hello, I was really afraid that this Zhang Wenyuan would give an order and shoot himself as a rabbit, and when he came back this time, he deliberately chose a time period when everyone was easy to get sleepy, to test the defense of Changshan, and also check the ability of the group of people he trained by him, on the whole, both sides are good!
"It turns out that Mr. Xu and Junyi are back! Haha" Zhang Liao also laughed, after all, it was not an enemy army, which made his face look much better, and besides, these more than 8,000 people were all soldiers brought out by himself, and he was happy for them to see them make such great progress.
"See General Zhang!" The soldiers under the city wall greeted loudly, and they were very happy to see Zhang Liao again, in this Changshan they respected Zhang Liao the most, followed by Chengfeng, the most admired is Zhao Yun, followed by Chengfeng, as for the most feared, that is the terrifying Mr. Xu around him, followed by Chengfeng, so in their hearts, Chengfeng will always be in the second place, referred to as the second goods.
"Good, good! It's good to be back! Hurry up and open the city gates, so that the brothers can rest! Zhang Liao said with a smile
After Zhang He and the others went in, Zhang Liao was a little surprised, this group of people has changed too much, and they don't even walk loudly, if this was put in the past, the big feet stomped on the ground, but now they are uniform, it seems that they have suffered a lot. However, it is not only them who have harvested, but they have also brought back a lot of things when they come back this time, in addition to the daily food and grass, the most are weapons, which can be regarded as a solution to the urgent need! Xu Shu's return made Cheng Feng even happier, but everything had to be discussed after they were rested, and Cheng Feng planned to call Guo Jia and Zhao Yun back, so that Chang Shan could let go of his hands and feet to clean up the Yellow Turban Army.
"Kill!" Bocai has been in infinite scenery recently, since the last time he broke the siege of Zhu Jun, he has succeeded in many consecutive raids, and now his morale has been raised to the extreme, this time he personally led the team to attack Huangfu Chong's camp, this Zhu Jun and Huangfu Chong set up a large camp separately, giving him an opportunity, Zhu Jun has a Sun Jian under his hands, it is more difficult to fight, this Huangfu Chong's subordinates can not have anyone who can take it, as the saying goes, persimmons pick soft pinch, Bo Cai chased Huangfu Chong to fight, and the famous general who hit him pulled a face every day! "Uncle, this Bocai is simply unreasonable!" However, seeing that Bo Cai killed again, Huang Fu Chong had no other way than to defend on the spot, after all, Bo Cai was all cavalry, and if he ran with people, it would be even less cost-effective, how could a person's two legs outrun the four legs of a horse. Fortunately, there is also a big shield brought by Feng Fang that can be used, as soon as the big shield is released, a spear, how can it resist Bocai's charge, as long as Sun Jian comes over, Bocai will retreat, just like that, Bocai attacked on both sides, only tired Sun Jian and vomited blood, and scolded in his heart, "Uncle, can't you two join forces together!" ”
"General Zhu, why don't you join forces with General Huangfu Chong!" In the end, Sun Jian couldn't stand it anymore, and said to Zhu Jun that if he continued like this, he would have to become the first general to die of exhaustion.
"Not yet, not yet, not to join forces yet!" Unexpectedly, Zhu Jun actually rejected Sun Jian's proposal, which made Sun Jian wonder a little, could it be that the two generals really had an estrangement and no longer trusted each other so much? But this shouldn't be, I've been with them all the time, and I've never seen them blush, what's going on? Could it be that there is a plan in it, thinking of this, Sun Jian's eyes lit up, and he was about to ask, but Zhu Jun said, "Wentai, you are also tired, let's hurry up and rest!" ”
"This! All right! Subordinates obey! On the way back, Sun Jian has been thinking, it seems that these two generals are going to join forces with Lu Bocai, so he should seize the time to recover his strength, after all, the force is still his highest.
Cao Cao has been very low-key in making a fortune in a muffled voice since he flattened Runan, this time he received Zhu Jun's letter, without too much delay, and secretly quietly brought 30,000 troops and Cao Ren Xiahou Yuan to the vicinity of Wancheng, Cao Cao has not shown up, but he is ready, and Zhu Jun and they have set a time to meet, as for how to deal with Bo Cai and them, they can only wait to meet and then talk, now it is a good way to hide the soldiers! Cao Cao has been in a good mood recently, Qingzhou and Yanzhou have become their own territory, and Xiahoudun and they are secretly recruiting troops, although he is not as famous as Yuan Shao now, but his own power is more than five times that of Yuan Shao, this time he brought troops to help, if Wancheng is defeated, not to mention anything else, these tens of thousands of horses will have to take half of them! "Wonderful! This time, you don't want to go up with a fight, if you do fight, you can find a chance to get some more horses back! Cao Cao smiled and said to Xiahou Yuan, after all, Xiahou Yuan is the most suitable for long-distance travel, if he is given the opportunity, it is estimated that he can send these horses to Chen Liu within five days!
"Lord, don't worry, don't dare to say anything else, I have to get at least 10,000 horses back this time!" Xiahou Yuan said with a smile
"It doesn't take so much, just five or six thousand, we can't afford to raise more, and before the world is chaotic, Qingzhou's bandits can't all be cleared, we have to keep some, otherwise we have to go home and continue farming!" Cao Cao laughed
"I understand, but I can't let Bo Cai go again this time, after all, he is an important leader of the Yellow Turban Army, and killing him can accumulate a lot of fame!" Xiahou Yuan's eyes lit up, reminding Cao Cao.
"Hmmm! I know this thing, if we can catch it alive, it is the best, and if you really can't die, we will fight for the credit this time, but if we catch more horses, this credit will be given to them, otherwise it will cause suspicion in the court and will not be good for us in the future! Cao Cao thought for a while and said
"Hmmm! I can't figure it out, we don't understand, I'll just catch more things this time! In that case, I'll go and prepare, and I'll listen to your orders when the time comes! Xiahou Yuan rarely had no fire, and said with such a hippie smile, after all, Xiahou Yuan has a strong temperament and is notoriously quick tempered, more powerful than his brother Xiahou Yuan, his brother is short-tempered, he is quick tempered.
watched Xiahou Yuan walk out. Cao Cao also thought in his heart, how to exchange the smallest loss for the greatest benefit this time, I hope that Bo can take the initiative again, now that the Huangfu Chongda camp has retreated, he can't retreat anymore, as long as Bo Cai does it again, he must look good.
"Big brother! Eldest brother! As soon as Zhao Yun returned to Changshan, he ran to Chengfeng as soon as possible, and made Chengfeng Yixi, who was practicing, "Oh, this is not our Han's unequaled marquis, Changshan Zhao Zilong!" Cheng Feng deliberately exaggerated, after all, Zhao Yun's majesty was seen with his own eyes, and now he took this opportunity to tease him.
"Big brother, don't make trouble" Zhao Yun said a little shyly, sure enough, as Cheng Feng expected, his brother was still young, and he began to blush after a few words, plus that baby face, it was really rare.
"Haha, okay, no kidding, Zilong, why are you back? Isn't there something wrong? Cheng Feng stopped joking and hurriedly asked
"It's a big deal!" Zhao Yun then told Cheng Feng about the subduing of the bandits and Zhang Bao's granary, but Cheng Feng was not happy, as for Guo Jia's map, the two of them chose to ignore it, because one waited to say and the other waited to ask, this kind of thing has to be talked about by the parties, so that it seems to respect others! "Well, yes, yes, I'm really sleepy, someone will send a pillow, so you can take advantage of the fact that no one has reacted yet, you take 20,000 people, pull things back, hurry up, set off now, you don't want anything else, get those herbs and weapons back, as for those grains and grasses that can be taken, you can take them, and if you can't take them, send someone to inform General Lu Zhi and let him transport them!" Cheng Feng said with a smile, only rolling his eyes a few times at what Zhao Yun said.
As for our military division Guo Jia Guo Fengxiao, after coming back, he first went to have a drinking addiction, and when he saw Chengfeng, Guo Jia burped vigorously, full of alcohol, as if he was out of the wine jar, Xu Shu was stunned, and said angrily, "You wine barrel, drink it to death!" Provoked everyone to laugh, although the contact time is not much, but everyone knows that this Guo Jia is still relatively reliable, although he loves to drink, and his behavior is a little uninhibited, but he is really careful to do things, and he has never delayed his business because of drinking for so long.
"you, I call it a combination of work and rest, what do you know? Do you have to be as cynical as you are? Guo Jia rolled his eyes, opened his mouth and scolded Xu Shu, and suddenly made the atmosphere more active, Han Yong was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, and he whistled there, which made a group of people laugh, such a harmonious atmosphere is also unique to the whole Han Dynasty.
"That's it! No kidding, you're all back this time, so let's figure out what to do next. In the end, it was still a seal to play a round game, otherwise these two people could fight for a day, "Now we can send troops, mainly because I don't know when it's good to send troops, and there is a question that we will deal with first when we send troops?" ”
As soon as Cheng Feng's words came out, the room quieted down, after all, this is the right thing, Xu Shu thought for a while after listening to it, and said, "If we send troops, we can only attack Zhang Jiao, and the others don't care!" ”
"Yes, as the saying goes, the thief captures the king first, we are too close to Zhang Liang and Zhang Jiao, if we deal with others, it is easy to be attacked by Zhang Jiao, so we can only deal with him first! As for the time to send troops, we don't panic now, and when Wanchengbo is destroyed, it will be the time when we send troops! Guo Jia also said
"Isn't that a little late? After all, now that there are wars everywhere, only we are confronting Zhang Jiao, with our strength, I think it will be more beneficial to counter-rebellion in other places to destroy Zhang Jiao directly? Tian Yu had a different opinion, after all, he was too close to Zhang Jiao.
"Actually, it's okay, the main thing is that we are close to the giant deer, otherwise, let's send troops to occupy the giant deer first, and force Zhang Jiao to fight with us, so that Zhang Jiao's mental pressure will be much greater, I heard that he has not been in good health recently, so I can't go to see the king of Hades in a hurry, so we can save a lot of trouble!" Guo Jiadao, after all, Guo Lao Mo is good at attacking, and he is really not willing to do this defensive thing!
"Good! Then it's decided, now let the soldiers rest first, wait for Zilong to come back, let's send troops, this time to beat Zhang Jiao hurt, I want to see how rich this giant deer is! Cheng Feng said with a smile
No matter how they discussed, Zhao Yun quietly came to Zhongshan with 20,000 elite soldiers at this time, and took advantage of the night when the army directly took Zhang Bao's warehouse, Zhang Bao's soldiers were still sleeping, and they were taken down by Zhao Yun, Zhao Yun surveyed the terrain in advance, bypassed a lot of dark sentinels and patrols along the way, and smashed Huanglong, and waited until Zhao Yun took the entire warehouse, and none of the Yellow Turban Army was aware. "Kill!" As Zhao Yun shouted, the heads rolled to the ground, as for saying that someone surrendered, Zhao Yun would not allow it, and beheaded everyone, because this was a surprise attack, and it was for supplies, how could he have time to manage the prisoners, not to mention that the people who could be sent by Zhang Bao to guard the materials must be his henchmen, even if they surrendered, it would be endless troubles! When Zhao Yun opened the warehouse, he realized how wrong he was, at the beginning, he only knew that there were medicinal materials, weapons, farm tools, and some food, but he didn't expect that there were so many, "Hurry up, move away, transport away!" Zhao Yun said with rare excitement, after all, there are too many, Zhao Yun dares to swear, this is the largest warehouse he has ever seen, it is estimated that it is the one secretly designed by Zhang Bao, because in addition to these strategic materials, there are also a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, which really makes Zhao Yun open his eyes, "Wu Tiangang!" Zhao Yun shouted
"General! What's the matter? Wu Tiangang was smirking, after all, it was the first time he had seen so many things, he originally thought that the warehouses he robbed were big enough, but now it seems that those are small, this group of Yellow Turban Army is really rich, it is said that it is so rich that it is almost oily, it should be rich and rival the country!
"You hurry back and tell the eldest brother, just say that you can't pull it, tell him to shoot another 50,000 elite soldiers, and escort them along the road, otherwise Zhang Bao will fight with us!" Zhao Yun said with a smile
"Yes! Checkmate! Wu Tiangang hurriedly rode to Changshan after speaking, because this goods often do this kind of errand work, so Chengfeng specially gave him a BMW, although it is not as good as the Red Flame Snow Shadow, but it is also a sweaty BMW, and it took less than half a day to run to Changshan.
"My lord! Hurry up! General Zhao called me to ask for support, saying that he wanted 50,000 people" Wu Tiangang didn't see it, but he heard his joyful voice, and shouted that the people in the room were a little confused, isn't it just to grab a warehouse, why are you still playing so big? When Chengfeng understood what happened, he didn't say anything, and took Guo Jia and Zhang He to lead an army of 50,000 out of the city, and there were more than 20,000 carriages alone, and this convoy could be lined up from Changshan to Zhongshan. "Be careful with me, my eyes are good on the road! Zhang He, you are responsible for security, and all the troops you see, as long as you don't identify yourself at the first time, you will be killed! Cheng Feng commanded, his heart was also very excited, it seems that this time Changshan's materials can last a few more years, and he can better start to develop Changshan's agriculture.
