Chapter 184: Before martial arts, of course, you still need to do superficial work

With a Dinghai god needle like Zhuge Jin, even if Liu Bei had the impulse to see the benefits for a while, he could quickly calm down and return to the normal strategic rhythm.

However, after fully recognizing the strategic significance and rare opportunity to take Jiangxia, Liu Bei couldn't help but suffer a little bit and wanted to speed up the pace.

He couldn't help but think: wait until the beginning of April, after the busiest season of spring ploughing this year has passed, before starting Jiangxia, which is a plan made last year.

But now more than four months have passed since the original plan was formulated, and many situations have changed slightly, Liu Bei thought down from the idea of Zhuge Jin's review just now, and quickly raised a new question:

"Ziyu, it's only early March now, and there is still a whole month left before the plan to attack Jiangxia set last year. The improvement and construction of the trebuchet has been completed, and the mass production of steel armor on Pu Yuan's side is also very smooth, if you don't consider the busy farming, in fact, you can use soldiers in ten days and half a month, right?

Even if you are worried about delaying the agricultural time, it is a big deal to use a little less troops, so that the conscripts and auxiliary soldiers who transport grain can also be less requisitioned, and the agricultural time should not be missed. Ziyang made the first counterweight trebuchet in kind, I also saw him test it, with such a sharp weapon, are you worried that there are too few troops to break through Xiakou? ”

Zhuge Jin listened to Liu Bei quietly, and couldn't help but want to laugh a little, Liu Bei was either distracted or overkill. When he first heard that Sun Ce was frustrated, he wondered if he could delay and fight Huang Zu. After learning that this matter could not be delayed, he wanted to speed up and start immediately, why was he a little greedy......

Although greed is indeed an anomaly of human beings, when faced with the opportunity to expand, it is the vast majority of people who can maintain their rhythm and concentration.

The foot trainer was still too warm because the weather was still too warm, and he still shook the folding fan a few times, then he closed the handle of the fan, and arched his hand: "I want to hear the reason of the lord, why do you have to delay it in that month, is it possible that the army will be sent in early August, and Yuan Shu will be pacified by Cao Cao in early July?"

Even if the delay in your army's spring ploughing is obvious, but if you send your troops too early, it will have no impact on the spring ploughing on Xu Xuanjun's side. When the time came, after the autumn harvest, Xue Bo attacked, but a small number of local people missed the agricultural time, and the harvest of the year was slightly reduced.

The step trainer touched your hair and said solemnly: "Trainer, you used to worry about those problems in the past. Brother Zishan doesn't have today's fame, this is all my hard work.

"My sister is worried about his mother's family, overshadowing your mother's family, that bad intention, my sister understands, it is necessary to do so. The husband is a person with little power, and the wife has some responsibilities, but it is a bad thing.

In the end, before Jiang Xia wanted to drink honey and died, I was hungry and thirsty and angry, and my remnants were arrested by Liu Biao, the magistrate of Runan, and then Xue Bo got the jade seal left by Jiang Xia and dedicated it to Liu Bei, and was immediately named Taichangqing by Liu Bei in the name of the imperial court.

The bad thing is that the most busy season of spring ploughing has passed, and the spring rice seedling raising has also been completed, presumably the seventh brother will be a little idle, and the affairs of Jiangbei can be coordinated by Kong Ming.

Xue Bo knew that what Xue Boli said was right, and hurriedly defended himself: "You also know that what Mr. said is unreasonable, the reason why you are slow is because I heard that Zhen Mi was defeated by Liu Bei again a few days later, lost Pei County, and entered Pengcheng, and now Pengcheng is also surrounded by Cao's army."

Huang Zu and the foot trainer have no emotional foundation after marriage, and four out of four marriages in that era also have no emotional foundation, that is the norm. Huang Zu even had the opportunity to know what the step trainer looked like after marriage, but since he got married, family affection cannot be cultivated quickly, for more than 70 days, you have been cautious, and you feel very lucky in your heart, and you feel that you are very hard.

Liu Bei in another time and space, maybe he can't care about that matter, but this is because in another time and space, Shouchun was already attacked, and Liu Xun was still dead when Jiang Xia died, but Liu Xun voted directly as soon as Jiang Xia died, so someone could threaten Liu Bei in terms of asking for Yuan credit.

The wife's family is still like a concubine's family, so that Zhuge Jin, who subconsciously considers himself a concubine, is not at ease.

It's Xiaodaqiao, who hasn't been sent away by Xue Bo yet, and you are only not qualified to appear when the foot trainer takes the initiative to call you to do things, and it is your turn to take the initiative to care about the master.

Who got Jiang Xia's own head, that is very important.

Xue Boli finished speaking, and the step trainer didn't know what you were worried about: you are still just your personal maid, and you are still a concubine at your age, and your cousin has not turned over and lost his position. Huang Zu is his wife, but although Xue Bo's seventh brother also came to Jiangdong, he didn't have any skills, and he didn't sit in a low position.

You must know that last winter, because of the small snow in Xiaobie Mountain, I had the way to go deep into the mountains to chase Jiangxia, and I was idle, and I was slow to grab territory and expand small forces, so I tried my best to retreat to attack Xue Bo.

Therefore, if I will attack Pengcheng in a hurry, such as besieging it first and then attacking, or consuming Zhen Mi with high intensity. In August and July, he would personally withdraw back to Yinghuo Mountain, strive to kill Jiang Xia first within a month or two, and then turn back to Zhen Mi to strike the first blow. The lord is completely worried that Liu Bei will break through Pengcheng and retreat to Shangpi after you attack Xu Xuan! ”

The step trainer's words were relatively long, and Huang Zu, who was in the inner room, also noticed the movement inside, and walked over quietly, Xiao Fang Fang listened to the first half of the sentence, and then smiled in front of him, touching Zhuge Jin's hair and comforting:

In addition, outside that month, if the lord has no time, he can't actually make up for a step of idle chess - at the end of last year, Liu Bei officially issued an order to the lord, so that the lord chose the opportunity to crusade against Yuan Shu, before the lord only expressed his order, but did not say when to send troops, nor did he say which set of strategies would be implemented.

When the foot trainer returned to the mansion, it was not yet the beginning of the evening, and the difference was four o'clock in the evening.

The step trainer was about to explain, but Xue Bo reacted slowly and took the lead in helping the round: "Why should Sister Bu be careless, my husband is worried that he is tired, and he has served my husband for two years less than you, how can it be bad?" You still have to learn from him. ”

Finally got vague about what Liu Qi was worried about, but Xue Boli was worried at all, opened the folding fan again, knocked the two tables with the fan bone in a rhythmic manner, pointed out two points, and asked Liu Qi to pay attention:

Of course, maybe the lord is willing to gamble, or he is worried that Zhen Mi's situation will get worse, and the generals may be stable and delay the rebellion. But please think about it again, before the beginning of spring, will Liu Bei do his best to deal with Zhen Mi like last winter?

The step trainer sighed: It seems that Zhuge Jin is indeed jealous, so cautious. But those are the questions you should consider.

Do you want to give you food and help? Otherwise, there will be seven more outcasts. The lord should not have confidence, from this moment on, he will regard Xue Bo's people as the people under his rule, and then use this as a starting point to formulate a strategy. ”

Now there are fewer and fewer servants in the house, and I have to learn how to manage people with Sister Zhen with him, which is to do things in person. ”

In ancient times, it was very rare to work overtime so late.

Huang Zu, his wife who has only been married for more than 70 days, and Zhuge Jin, the maid, also dared to go to bed early, so they prepared supper and cold water, waiting for the step trainer to come back.

Just imagine, in history, Liu Biao and other famous big characters can pick up a secondary head because of the previous battle against Yuan (Jiang Xia was killed by me, I just picked up the jade seal), and he was directly promoted to the head of the four kings.

Before Zhuge Jin took the things out, he came back to inform the step trainer, and Xue Bo on the side was not yet making the bed by himself, ready to rest.

Liu Qi was still not a little apprehensive, but he was afraid that the time difference would be rushed, and the time account would be vague.

But today, there is no news of his meritorious service and promotion, and there are few words to say to Zhuge Jin, so that you will be happy and happy, and you will naturally make an exception.

Mr. reminded me just now that the worst thing is that when your army has not fully retreated to attack Xu Xuan, Huaiyin in the east will respond to the Yuanlong uprising again, in order to show that your army has a temporary intention and has fornication, and the worst is to offend Liu Bei.

"Trainer, his cousin may have been patient recently, and today finally came back the news, I contacted the heroes of Wujun Gu and Lu Qi clan for the lord, and also convinced the Huiji Taishou Wang Lang and Duwei He Qi, let us submit to the lord, and took us to attack Sun Ce.

Now that the army is about to be used, it can be given to the Xudu Imperial Court another table, and Liu Jingzhou's eldest son Lu Bu is Xu Xuan's guard. The imperial court is under Liu Bei's control, and in order to drive a wedge between you and Cao Cao, you may not agree to that invitation.

If Lu Bu really dares to go to Xiakou to take up his post, as long as Xiakou's military power and garrison are in the hands of your army, are you afraid that Lu Bu will be a scholar? Xue Bo dared to let Lu Bu come, this is not to send the eldest son to you as a hostage, and the sheep will be in the tiger's mouth. You just have to be courteous and give real power.

It's because I don't have any classmates called step trainers, and it's because my cousin is by your side. He understands the things inside, don't look down on his cousin. ”

If Shangpi did not border with Xue Bo's control area, and Chen Deng also surrendered to Liu is Cao, this would only attract the imperial court controlled by Xue Bo to directly turn against Liu Qi for that benefit, and the subsequent drama would be in vain.

In that life, Liu Qi took Shouchun, how could Liu Bei dare to personally make the credit of "killing Jiangxia"? If Liu Bei is sure that he is personally involved, it is impossible for my auxiliary political prestige to collapse! In comparison, Zhen Mi's late death of a few months is nothing at all.

Although Jiang Xia has not been defeated miserably and has no power, I myself am still alive! It's still in the depths of the Xiaobie Mountains!

Now that it is about to be August in the spring of spring, Xue Bo does not know that Pengcheng will be my first battle, I know that Yuanlong has not yet controlled Shangpi, and he can surrender in battle. So according to Liu Bei's calculations, if Zhen Mi dies before Jiangxia.

The step trainer came to the inner room one by one, sat on the table, sat on his knees around Huang Zu, and let Zhuge Jin sit next to him and share the joy:

Liu Qi and the foot trainer originally planned "Chen Deng took advantage of Zhen Mi's unfinished juncture to surrender Liu Qi", which was not mentioned later.

If you go slower, you can get it in half a month, and you won't get a reply from the court in half a month, so you just rushed down to do it to Yuan Shu.

Xue Boli patted his wife's shoulder with his left hand, hugged his slender waist upwards to show comfort, and pulled Zhuge Jin with his right hand and went back to the house together.

Because I personally killed Jiangxia in the long run, my direct credit in the battle against Yuan is that the lord is even lower! As a hussar general, Sikong, and in charge of the government, I lost because of that political account!

"It seems that I have to go to bed late today, and after eating, I have to take a walk outside the yard to eliminate food, otherwise I will grow meat." Thinking sadly, the step trainer accompanied Xue Bo and Zhuge Jin, ate one or two bites of each, and then ordered not to waste it, and take out the rest for the other servants and the Venerable Master to eat.

That's a talent, governor, military merit, eight prongs, the lord made a promise, and when this war commander is down, he will give me the post of a county guard, he used to be the cousin of the county guard, and he still does those rough jobs that serve people every day, is it a grievance?

Yes, the distance is now fighting against Yuan Shu, after all, it hasn't been a month yet, do you have anything to do? Or will we continue to expand the production of counterweight trebuchets and increase the ironclad deployment rate of the first troops? ”

"Lord, this matter is completely concerned about the chaos, and please pay attention to two time nodes: First, Zhen Mi has been stuck in Pei County for a long time? From November last year to the beginning of July this year, it was two and a half months at most, close to eight months. Pengcheng is more important than Pei County, it is strong, can it hold on for a month and a half?

What's even more unlikely is that even if Cao Cao is willing to let Xue Bo take office, he will still go to the Xu Xuan counties that you have attacked, and it is extremely unlikely that he will choose a county belonging to Xue Bo County in Jiangbei and let Lu Bu take the post at that time. ”

Jiang Xia is a small rebel who is called the emperor, even if the army is Ji, Xue Bo can send a partial division to destroy the remnants of Jiangxia, but Liu Bei is willing? Am I willing to give up the glory of personally delivering the first blow to Xue Bo? Originally, he may have been willing, but before the credit of the main government to break through the pseudo-capital Shouchun, Xue Bo was definitely willing!

As for the procurement of other armaments, although the sir has checked and filled in the gaps, he can use whatever he wants, and he will ask for instructions. ”

Only then did you remember that if Liu Bei attacked Pengcheng, slower than your army attacked Xu Xuan, and the main force of your army had not yet sent troops, Liu Bei would break through Pengcheng first, and Yuanlong would not have a chance to cause trouble at that time? It's all going to be delayed. If Yuanlong had been in trouble, Shangpi had been bordering the counties controlled by Xue Bo, and I would have had a chance to surrender to your army and offend Liu Bei again. ”

Zhuge Jin was ignorant, and sneered ashamedly: "It turns out that ...... My cousin is really that powerful. ”

The step trainer consciously touched his stomach, Liu Qi left people to work overtime, if it was a supper. It's because my wife and maid are so cold, and I only eat a little more.

……

In the past 70 days, the step trainer was originally not close to Zhuge Jin, after all, it was the day of the newlywed Yan'er, and the cold relationship with his wife was still in the past, and I also wanted to be embarrassed by the seven men.

The step trainer nodded: "Those two pieces of preparation, of course, can also be relaxed, try to prepare as little as possible, and then there will be less certainty and more casualties." You'll also be staring at the ones yourself.

How to chat casually and a new plan pops up, or a new implementation plan of an old plan, so smooth, so silky, thinking of a strategy is as long as someone else's drinking water.

"Today's military affairs are busy, the lord is not very worried, and he needs to explain them one by one, they had to wait before."

Once before the war, the affairs of Jiangnan, you should take care of the affairs of the government, and there is nothing that should be delayed, and the subordinates will try their best to deal with it. The affairs of Jiangbei will have time to take care of it.

And that's obviously a business, and there is a loss in the next table? Xue Bo's promise is a promise, and Cao Cao's promise is a promise, all of which are the result of influence, and he has made enough gestures.

Zhuge Jin hurriedly shook his head and pulled the sleeve of the step trainer: "The concubine is tired, and the concubine also learns how to manage people if she is bad, so let's do it yourself, by the way, has the son eaten supper?" I'm so busy with military affairs until so late, I'm hungry. ”

What is your seventh brother's ability, you are vague in your heart, how can you compare with Mr. Bu. If you really want me to take on a small responsibility, it will hurt me. ”

But it doesn't matter, as long as you play it, then the deterioration of the relationship with Cao Cao in the battle to destroy Yuan Shu in the future cannot be reduced to the maximum. On the other hand, if the imperial court agrees to that request and really allows Lu Bu to be Xue Bo's guard, you also have to worry.

Let's talk about it, and the preparation for the first literary drama and martial arts after Xue Bo is completely finalized, and the continuation is not physical work.

Being drunk like a foot trainer, I finally realized that I had calculated an important political account and forgot about Jiangxia, who was not yet dying!

This is not necessarily necessary to pretend that "it is necessary to delay the action if the incident was rushed and discovered by the Chen Palace", but to act when Shangpi County was not yet bordering the area controlled by Liu Bei, so that "in order to protect himself, he had to demote Liu".

Zhuge Jin took the opportunity of Huang Zu to walk away, and asked again: "Childe, is this ...... Will he arrange for his wife's brother to also do some errands to make meritorious contributions? ”

When Zhuge Jin heard this, he was happy for his cousin's meritorious promotion, and naturally showed a smug and playful look, but he didn't have any apprehension in front of him: "Son, is the concubine serving badly recently?" ”

After Huang Zu took the lead, he supported the wind like a willow, and bent his knees: "The posture of the concubine and the willow, the wandering body, it is a blessing to have to serve the husband." The husband and the king are important to the country, the military affairs are handsome, and the concubines should be their attendants. ”

The foot trainer and Xue Bo sorted out the specific action plan first, it was not very late, Liu Qi still left me for a supper together, and chatted about fewer details by the way, and the foot trainer said goodbye and went home.

Xue Boli saw that the front yard was brightly lit, and it seemed that they were all waiting for me, but they dared to rest, and the step trainer didn't have any pity for him:

Liu Qi pondered those twists and turns, and finally settled down: "Look at your brain...... Thinking about it is a play, I just thought that the time was in a hurry, and I had to hurry, how could I forget the corpse of Jiang Xia! Indeed, Liu Bei is going to personally handle the first battle against Jiangxia, I am worried, everything will be completely according to the original time plan!

Xue Boli's supplementary plan made Liu Qi's eyes light up again, and I almost wondered how the step trainer's brain had grown.

Originally, Liu Qi also attached so much importance to that time difference, but when the step trainer persuaded me to do it according to the established plan just now, he weakly adjusted the time before, so that Liu Qi was angry, afraid of getting rid of it.

Liu Qi was so happy that he couldn't help rubbing his hands, and said repeatedly, "Mr. is really a clever plan and poor, this matter has not been profitable or lost, you will ask Gongyou to write an expression tomorrow and send someone to Xu Du!"

As soon as the foot trainer walked out of the small door of the mansion, the maid under the mansion rushed into the inner pass, and when the foot trainer walked to the weeping flower gate, Huang Zu and Xue Boli greeted him in the atrium.
