Zhao Yun didn't know Tian Chou, and he didn't know where Lin Mo had asked about this person, but he always knew that it was never easy for Lin Mo to write a letter to invite him.

But Yan Liangwen Chou is familiar with Tian Chou's name, not that Tian Chou is famous, although he is also known as a great Confucian scholar, but what really makes these two brothers remember him is Yuan Shao in the middle of the sky, and he was rejected twice.

The brothers were very puzzled, Lin Mo actually sent him to him with only one letter, but the old lord couldn't move this guy even if he sent someone and gave gifts.

After entering the mansion and reporting the situation of the family, it turned out that it was a like-minded group of scholars led by Tian Chou who did not even guarantee their lives in the three counties ruled by Wuhuan, coupled with their enslavement policy of the Han people, if it were not for their strength, they would have started to work with Wuhuan a long time ago.

It's such a coincidence, Lin Mo now also wants to overturn Wuhuan, and after receiving the letter, he packed his bags and set off for Zhuo County.

"In the early years, Wuhuan was a vassal state of the Xiongnu outside the Guanwai, paying tribute to cattle and horses, spices and grain every year.

But in recent years, with the continuous civil strife in the imperial court and the relaxation of the borders, Wuhuan has long been called a subsidiary and is actually independent.

Moreover, I also heard that Bunton was reconciling with the two major Xianbei tribal leaders, Budugen and Kebineng, and once they were allowed to entangle their power together, it would be a bad thing.

Hou Ye can take this opportunity to go out of the three counties and level Wuhuan, a wise move, which is also in line with Chen Zigong's arrogant words back then, those who commit strong men will be punished even if they are far away!

Only one battle can not only make the Han people of the three counties see the light of day again, but also deter Xianbei outside the Guan.

Although he is not talented, he is willing to make a modest effort to share the worries of the Hou Ye and achieve this feat! ”

Tian Chou said impassionedly, even spittle, and his hatred for Wuhuan can be seen.

Even Zhao Yun and Yan Liangwen felt their blood boiling after hearing this, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.

However, what he said was actually Lin Mo's inner words.

First, Lin Mo wants to tell Xianbei, tell the Huns, and tell Wuhuan that those who commit crimes against strong men will be punished even if they are far away!

Furthermore, fight with one punch, lest a hundred punches come; If you beat Wuhuan down, Xianbei will throw a mouse bogey, otherwise I don't know how many battles will be fought on this border in the future.

It is undeniable that when the champion Hou made a move, the Huns were really entertained like children, and the wolf Juxu was even more famous.

Even in this era, there are also fierce men like Gongsun Zhan.

But if we simply look at the battle tables submitted by the counties, the plundering of Xianbei, Xiongnu and Wuhuan in recent years has generally taken advantage.

It's time to do something.

This kind of war is not to expand the territory or plunder resources, but to tell them that from now on, here, Youzhou, is your forbidden area, and the people can be protected by the Han again.

"Zitai, my heart to cut Wuhuan is as solid as a rock, you can rest assured of this, I came to you to hear what suggestions you have for our army's march route." Lin Mo sipped his tea and said slowly.

Tian Chou obviously came prepared, and directly took out a sheepskin drawing from his arms and put it on the table in front of Lin Mo, and pointed to one of the clearly marked lines and said:

"Lord Hou, please see, this is the galloping road that the imperial court has communicated with Wuhuan for many years, that is, the coastal road, and it can be pointed directly to Liucheng, the head of Wuhuan, from Yi County."

Lin Mo frowned and looked at the line in front of him, this was the route that Cao Cao took back then, but it seemed that he returned because of the rain problem, and took another route.

Just when he was about to ask a question, Tian Chou took the lead in speaking, "The biggest advantage of this route is that although it also crosses mountains and mountains, the carriages and horses can still travel, and the disadvantage is that the rainy season in summer and autumn every year will cause no vehicles and horses and no boats."

After the winter, the snow is falling, the supply is not lost, it is not conducive to the battle of the army, it is now the rainy season, no matter how late the winter can not fight, or the next spring can send troops again. ”

What Tian Chou said is generally consistent with the history that Lin Mo knows, and there is obviously no hiding any secrets.

He bowed his head slightly and said with a smile: "In addition to the coastal road, are there other passages into Liucheng?" ”

Tian Chou was stunned, obviously his mind was on the coastal road on the way here, so that he couldn't react when Lin Mo asked this.

After a short time, he stepped forward and pointed to another route, and said in a deep voice: "There is another way, take Lulongsai, cross the Yanshan Mountain Range to reach the gate and enter the White Wolf Mountain, and finally you can also reach Liucheng, but"

That's right, this is the passage where Cao Cao attacked Wuhuan in history!

After getting Lin Mo's nod, he continued: "This plank road has been abandoned for nearly two hundred years, not only is there many damage along the way, but also many mountain roads are only open to one horse, not to mention the difficulty of the army, each group can only advance two thousand people, once surrounded, the rear army can not be reinforced, and it will immediately fall into a dead situation."

In addition, this road is impassable, and the grain and grass cannot be transported to the front line for supplies. ”

That is to say, it is useless if you go with a lot of people, because the particularity of this path determines that when you meet in the front, there will be two or three thousand people.

At the same time, the army can only carry rations with them, and once they get caught in a bitter battle or confrontation, they will most likely starve to death.

Now I understand why such a ruthless person as Gongsun Chan couldn't take off the black huan, the conditions are really difficult.

In all fairness, Cao Cao in this battle, if it weren't for the Liao God who beheaded him in front of the battle, people would have dragged you to death.

"In this way, divide 30,000 troops to take the coastal road to attract the army of Wuhuan, and then use a team of 10,000 people to travel lightly out of Lulongsai to attack Liucheng, after the city is broken, Wuhuan will be chaotic, and immediately join the army to divide and rule the Wuhuan departments."

The sound of attacking the east and the west is not very clever, but it is actually a complete replica of the battle in history in which Cao Cao annihilated Wuhuan.

The only difference is that Cao Cao also made a trip to the wrong road, and he was trapped on the coastal road and had to turn away from Lulongse.

"I have heard that Hou Ye is like a god with soldiers, if it is really famous, it is better to meet, if it is like this, Liucheng will be broken!" Tian Chou was the first to applaud.

Zhao Yun exchanged glances with Zhang Yan and Yan Liangwen, and the four of them also agreed.

The only question is who will lead the elite to the surprise attack, who will lead the troops to feint, and who will stay on the border of Zhuoxian.

In this regard, Lin Mo has been prepared for a long time.

The most critical part of this battle is that it must reproduce the feat of slashing Dun, otherwise it is really waiting for Wuhuan to assemble, not jokingly, it can't be beaten, but people claim to have more than 20,000 cavalry.

Therefore, Zhao Yun, Yan Liang and Wen Chou must be out of Lu Longsai in a group.

As for Zhang Yan, in fact, he is also very capable of fighting, this point Zhao Yun has already been admitted to the school, so it is necessary for him to stay at the border of Zhuoxian County to prevent Xianbei from suddenly attacking.

As for the feint, it is enough to send a lieutenant colonel to take it.

Didn't Jiao Touch and Zhang Nan make meritorious contributions, just took this opportunity to let them take command, and they didn't have to worry that they would lead people to run away, because the thing of being in command is just nominal, 30,000 troops have a total of six captains, and the four people in charge of the army must be their own people.

Lin Mo doesn't plan to go, the pain of going deep into the barren and bitter cold land is bearable, although the strong man who commits a strong man will be punished far away, it is not a good slogan, the problem is that the old father-in-law went to Pengcheng, so Yecheng must be guarded.

If you also go to fight Wuhuan, it is really easy to have problems in the rear, and now this group of families is eyeing it.

The old father-in-law is really, at such a critical time, he actually had doubts about his self-worth, and he simply threw the mess to me alone!

Of course, there is another reason, this time the opponent has brains, but not much, if Zhao Yun wants to become a commander in charge, this is a very good opportunity for training, he should take more troops out, otherwise who will share the pressure on himself in the future?

"Yunwen, I want Berning to be my lieutenant." Everyone had no opinion on this arrangement, but Zhao Yun stood up.

Full of pets?

Of course, he also wants to go together, this guy is also brave and resourceful, and he is very compatible with Zilong.

What's more, this time it is an attack on foreign tribes, and it will take a period of time to govern after the three counties are defeated, Tian Chou can certainly contribute, but he is definitely not as rough as Man's favored means, let him go, appropriate.

Lin Mo agreed without thinking about it.

It's just that when he mentioned full pet, Lin Mo subconsciously looked around but didn't see him in the hall.

Just as he was about to ask a question, three people walked into the hall.

Led by Manzhong, he was followed by two young men in armor.

Both of them are about twenty years old, but they don't see the youth that should be at this age.

There is a person on the left, with eyes into the falcon, a bronze complexion, a resolute face with a bit of chapped vicissitudes, a very standard border man.

The other person, with a book between his eyebrows, but the calluses that were clearly visible on the tiger's mouth on his right hand holding the sword indicated that this man had been practicing martial arts all year round.

In Lin Mo's suspicious gaze, Man Zhong and the two behind him shook at the same time, "I've seen the Marquis of Lanling." ”

"Master Hou, please introduce General Rong, this."

Man Chong retreated to the man on the left and introduced: "Guo Huai, the word Boji." His father is Yanmen Taishou Guo Yi, and the virtuous brother of Boji followed his father to the border, not only personally went into battle to kill Xianbei, but also read ancient and modern war strategies, and was really a civil and military all-rounder. ”

"I've seen Master Hou below." Guo Huai gave up.

He is the person who is several times more talented than him as Berning said, and it seems that he has just passed the weak crown, but he has such a talent, Zhao Yun muttered in his heart.

But Lin Mo couldn't help but stand up slowly.

Guo Huai?

My God, the young man in front of me is Guo Huai?

In history, Cao Wei's famous general Guo Huai?

Zhuge Liang's most difficult opponent in Qishan is of course Sima Yi, but in the process of rejecting the Shu army, it is not all Sima Yi's own credit.

Regardless of the rest, just when Zhuge Liang went out of Qishan for the fifth time, even Sima Yi failed to detect Zhuge Liang's intention to seize the Northern Plains, in fact, it was not Sima Yi who didn't see it at that time, and Guo Huai was the only one in the entire Cao camp who guessed Zhuge Liang's intentions and successfully resolved a crisis.

Within a few days, Zhuge Liang used the strategy of attacking the west again, feinting to attack the west siege, and actually taking Yangsui, which was also resolved by Guo Huai.

Moreover, when he followed Cao Cao to participate in the Hanzhong War in the early years, it was he who strongly recommended Zhang He to take over after Xiahou Yuan's death, which stabilized the defeat and not all of them were scattered by the Shu army.

In Guo Huai's career as a horseman, he will not be like the group of twenty-four generals, all of whom have the feat of single-handedly or rebellious generals, and more often play the talent of domination.

And it is precisely at the moment that this kind of talent is the most scarce in Lulin Group.

Besides, if he absorbed him, Cao Cao broke a fierce general, which was really a win-win situation.

"Guo Boji"

Lin Mo stepped forward, circled around him, and nodded, "It's a wise move to come to our army. ”

"Thank you, Master Hou!"

Guo Huai probably didn't expect that Lin Yunwen, who was famous all over the world, was a person without a fight, and he could treat his fledgling self with courtesy, and he still had a sense of satisfaction in his heart to be appreciated.

He looked at the man on the side and said, "Lord Houhou, I didn't set off immediately after receiving Brother Boning's letter, but invited Bo Dao to come with me.

Bodao has been in Taiyuan, although there is no actual combat, but for many years has been studying the tactics, especially the law of defending the city has a unique opinion, hope that the marquis will accept it. ”

"In Xia Hao Zhao, the word Bodao, I have seen Hou Ye."

Ahh

This, this, this.

has no actual combat experience, and has been reading military books, which makes Yan Liang always have a sense of déjà vu when he hears about soldiers on paper.

But only Lin Mo knows that this is another big bull.

The most famous Chencang defensive battle, Hao Zhao has more than 1,000 people on hand, and the Shu army, more than 30,000, can't break through the siege day and night for several days, you must know that it was personally commanded by Zhuge Liang, and it is dozens of times the gap between soldiers and horses, and the morale problem is going to be killed, but Hao Zhao was able to block the Shu army under Chencang City in this adversity, and how strong the ability to defend the city is, you can imagine.

"Hao Bodao."

Lin Mo patted him on the shoulder and smiled happily, "Don't worry, it doesn't matter if you don't have actual combat experience, as long as you are a talented person, you will definitely have a chance to get ahead in our army's camp." ”

"Thank you, Master Hou!"

To tell the truth, the fame of these two people cannot, of course, be compared with the twenty-four generals, because they may still lack a little bit of the temperament of a single commander.

But as far as the middle level is concerned, these two are definitely the most top-notch people.

Wow, since he dug up Zhao Yun and Lao Yin, Lin Mo has been managing internal affairs or going out to fight with him, and he hasn't poached people for a long time.

It's not that he doesn't want to, but there are some things that he really can't remember, and not everyone can rush into the army like Zhao Yun and shout, 'I am Changshan Zhao Zilong!' Especially these middle-level generals, the role they play is destined not to be too dazzling.

But this does not mean that they are not capable, on the contrary, judging from the current situation in Lu Ying, the first-class generals do not say that they crush the Cao, Liu, and Sun families, but if they want to say that they are brought out to fight alone, I am afraid that no one is an opponent.

In the middle level, the Liu and Sun families are not as good as Lu Ying, but Cao Jun is definitely above Lu Ying.

Think about it, Cao Zhen, Cao Xiu, Cao Chun, Li Dian, Le Jin, Li Tong, etc., how many people have been killed, and all of them are famous fierce men in history, even so, Cao Cao's military general background can still support him to compete with Lu Ying, which shows the strength of the middle level of Cao Ying.

Now that it's okay, two middle-level members have been added in one go, Lin Mo feels that he is in a good mood, the territory is so big, there are so many soldiers and horses, without these people, how can he do more soldiers.

"Boji, Bodao, you two are willing to join my command, if there is a war, you can have a good experience." Originally, Yan Liang was actually not very optimistic about these two.

Because he was not by his side when Man Zhong said those words at that time, coupled with a person like Hao Zhao who didn't even have actual combat experience, he was even more uneasy.

The crux of the matter is that Lin Mo's excitement has seriously exceeded the upper limit of a coach for newcomers.

The days when he came to Lu Ying were not a day or two, and there were many rumors about Lin Mo, all of whom said that he had a discerning eye, could recognize talents, and was a real famous general.

Zhao Yun and the others, didn't they just let him be promoted from Qianmo.

For him to be so excited, there must be something about these two people that he can't see.

"Eh, Brother Yan, I told Berning before they came, I want them to practice slowly under me, so that their brothers can get together." Of course, Zhao Yun didn't agree.

"Zilong, you can't forget your roots, how did Berning join our army, don't forget." Yan Liang said faintly, with an indescribable expression in his eyes.

Zhao Yun frowned slightly, of course I know that it depends on you, the problem is that I can't do it now that I lack a deputy general, and it is impossible for you two to follow me all the time, so Zhao Yun didn't plan to back down, looked at Lin Mo and said:

"Yunwen, the military power is in your hands, you can decide."

"Master Hou, our brothers haven't begged you for anything, we want two people, it's not too much, right?"

"Yes, Master Hou, give them to our brothers, they must be trained well." Wen Chou hurriedly opened his mouth.

Guo Huai and Hao Zhao are both blinded, are we so popular?

On the way here, I have been worried that Lu Ying is full of talents, and he has no military merits when he just came, so he is afraid that he will have to start from the team rate, but he can follow the full favor.

Who would have thought that as soon as he came in, he was fought over by Zhao Yun and Yan Liangwen, these three people, which one of them is not famous in the world, he was really flattered.

"Or, one for each person?" The palms and backs of his hands are all meat, and the most taboo in the army is distant relatives and close relatives, especially Lin Mo's current position, and he is not allowed to deliberately favor Zhao Yun.

"Follow me, Boji, you have combat experience, be a military marquis!" Zhao Yun was very generous, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he gave Guo Huai five hundred sergeants.

Yan Liang sneered coldly, "Bo Dao, although you have no combat experience, but just now they said that you are studying war strategies, so you can be a Sima under me, it is not a grievance against you, right?" ”

"Where this general says, he will live up to the general's high expectations!" Hao Zhao knelt directly on one knee.

Good guy, if someone gives a military marquis, you give a Sima a level bigger, which is a bit of a vindictive.

Hao Zhao is just a newcomer, and it is easy to be unable to suppress his subordinates as soon as he comes up to Sima.

Moreover, it is also easy to create a situation in which the military is not convinced.

But now in this army, the Northern Army is the mainstay, and Yan Liangwen's ugly prestige is there, and if he says a word, it is estimated that no one will dare to make trouble.

If you want to talk about strength, meritorious service, and combat achievements, of course Zhao Yun crushed Yan Liangwen and the ugly brothers to death, the problem is that the prestige in the Northern Army, Zhao Yun really can't compare to these two brothers.

So, he's qualified to mess around.

"Don't worry Boji, as long as you are talented, don't say Sima, the general also has you to do." Zhao Yun comforted Guo Huai.

"Bo Dao, follow our brothers, nothing else, you still earn military merits, show us some skills." Yan Liang is probably a cockfighter, and even this has to be angry with Zhao Yun.

Several of them were teasing each other in a weird way, and Lin Mo was angry and funny.

That's it, let's make trouble, the strategy of the army has been decided, and with Yan Liangwen and Chou, Yuan Xi's old department can quickly integrate into this collective.

Zhang Yan, his cubs are all in the state, so I don't worry that he won't be honest and fight the border.

Youzhou is almost.

It's time to head back to Yecheng.
