Chapter 81: The Battle Begins

"From this moment on, I will temporarily take the position of state pastor, but I will not accept it~"

After Cao Yun finished speaking, he glanced at the officials in the palace hall, but no one made a sound, they all lowered their heads. Some people may be unconvinced, but in this environment, no one dares to stand up and question.

"General Wenpin, how is the Jiangling Military Report?" Cao Yun asked.

"Lord Qiqi, the spies have come to report that Wuzhou Prefecture Mu Sun Li has occupied Jiangling City. Wen Pingli said.

"How many soldiers are there in the Wu army?"

"About fifty thousand. ”

Cao Yun frowned when he heard this, "How many soldiers can go to the battlefield in Qingyang City now?"

"Thirty thousand. Wen Ping replied loudly.

"It was decreed that if there are more than two sons in the family, one of them will be exempted from paying taxes for two years if he joins the army, and two people will be rewarded with three acres of fertile land. The whole army was ordered to be promoted to the rank of the army by killing the number of enemies in the future, killing 100 people as commanders, 1,000 people as captains, and killing 10,000 people as generals. The herald ordered to build fortifications outside the city, block the gates of each city, and not allow a single person to enter or exit, and those who dare to force their way in and out will be killed directly. Cao Yun said in a deep voice, and gave several orders in a row.

"Commanded"

"From this day on, we will enter a state of war, and everything will serve the war. ”

Later, Cao Yun discussed with Huang Chengyan about the internal affairs of Qingyang City during this time, after all, Cao Yun almost didn't understand these things, and he had to rely on Huang Chengyan. Although Zhang Zixi has some knowledge in internal affairs, he does not have enough experience and is not enough to be of great use.

discussed with Huang Chengyan and arranged some future internal affairs, and Cao Yun also emphasized pacifying the people, stabilizing prices in the city, etc., and then went to Dongcheng with Xu Zhi, Pang Shiyuan, and Gan Ning to inspect the fortifications.

Boom, it was still raining heavily at this time, but Cao Yun and the others let the rain hit their bodies, but several of them were wearing armor, so it didn't matter much.

"Your Excellency. Seeing Cao Yun coming, Wen Ping and Zhang Ge hurriedly came over, these two people are the generals in the city, and in such a situation, it is natural to personally supervise the construction of a defensive military.

"How many soldiers were sent to build it?" Cao Yun asked on the horse.

"Three thousand soldiers, the other soldiers have already arranged the deployment rounds, and they dare not move. Wen Ping said.

Cao Yun nodded when he heard this, and then rode towards the fortifications.

After inspecting the fortifications, Cao Yun told a few more words, asking Wen Ping to strengthen the patrol of the spies, and also strengthen the collection of the situation in various states. Later, Cao Yun ordered the villagers of the villages around Qingyang City to be temporarily moved into the city, and some simple tents were set up in the city to avoid the tragedy of driving the villagers in front of the besieging soldiers when the Wu army attacked Jiangling City. However, in this way, Qingyang City's internal affairs expenditure will be increased a lot.

Subsequently, Cao Yun returned to the state pastor's mansion.

"The young master is back. Seeing Cao Yun coming back, Xiao Yao got up and shouted.

"Young Master. "Come to Ying'er and get up.

"Ying'er, do you play any war tunes?" Cao Yun asked casually on a chair in the living room.

"Yes, there will be a lot. Lai Ying'er's eyes shone slightly when she heard this, obviously expecting Cao Yun to let her play.

"Play a song and I'll listen to it. Cao Yun said lightly.

"Good young master. Then Ying'er happily brought a lyre.

The sound of the piano was very fast and fast, and under the playing of Lai Ying'er, Cao Yun closed his eyes and thought of a battlefield where thousands of horses galloped and thousands of troops were killed, and infinite pride was born in his heart.

The sound of the piano ended abruptly after a while, and Cao Yun opened his eyes suddenly. Lai Ying'er wanted to ask Cao Yun how he was playing, hoping to hear a few words of praise, but she didn't want Cao Yun to get up straight and walk into the back room. Walking into the inner room, Cao Yun moved his mind to enter the Temple of Eternity.

Bai Qi is looking at a book on the throne, the book is floating in the air, and the picture is a little weird. Cao Yun strode to the Black Throne.

"Please also ask the ancestor to teach me martial arts. Cao Yun said respectfully in front of Bai Qi.

"What kind of thing do you want to learn?" Bai Qi asked, turning his head as the book floated in the air suddenly sank into the throne.

"Please Ancestor teach me how to use a gun!" Cao Yun said sincerely.

"You're going to battle?" Bai Qi asked, his red eyes shining a lot.

Cao Yun nodded heavily when he heard this.

"Battlefield, how long has it been since I smelled blood. Bai Qi said lightly, "But if you want to learn gun skills, you have to have a spear." ”

Cao Yun immediately returned to the Lord World Realm to find a spear, and then learned the spear skills with Bai Qi in the Hell Demon Realm for fifteen days, and it was only an hour after the Tumeng World Realm.

After returning to the room, Cao Yun went to the study to find a military book, and read it for half an hour before falling asleep.

In the early morning of the next day, Cao Yun got up early, first went to visit the injuries of his grandfather Cao Xian and father Cao Hao, and then went to the hall of the state pastoral mansion to deal with political affairs.

"Dong Zhuo was killed by Lu Yuan?" After arriving at the palace hall, Cao Yun looked at the information in his hand and was slightly surprised.

Yuan Chu and Cao De teamed up to attack Dong Zhuo, but they couldn't capture Luoyang for a while, but they didn't want Lu Yuan to suddenly kill Dong Zhuo, and broke through and returned to Yanzhou, Yuan Chu and Cao De took Luoyang.

"Luoyang was captured, but I don't know how Cao De and Yuan Chuwei divided it. When Lu Yuan returned to Yanzhou, he was mostly worried that Sun Li would attack Yanzhou, and he also wanted to compete in the world. Xu Zhi analyzed.

"Luoyang was captured, judging from the two armies of Yuan Chu and Cao De, they would not tear their faces for a while, and it is estimated that they will make a fuss with the emperor, either to maintain the current status of the emperor, or to re-establish a new monarch, and the two sides can also use this to tear their faces. That Lu Yuan is brave, but it is not easy to compete in the world, and now we still have to set our sights on Sun Li. If we can repel Sun Li, we will have time to breathe. Pang Shiyuan said.

What Shi Yuan said was that now that Sun Li had captured Jiangling, it was estimated that he would attack Qingyang in the next two days. Moreover, Sun Li's son Sun Wu and Wuzhou general Zhou Yu captured Runan together, and now they are besieging Shouchun, and it is estimated that they will also be captured. Cao Yun looked at the information in his hand and said in a deep voice, his expression was extremely grim.

"If Sun Wu captures the entire Yangzhou, it will be really unfavorable to my Qingzhou. Xu Zhi also said in a deep voice.

"Newspaper~"

At this moment, a soldier ran with information in his hand.

Cao Yun got up as soon as he saw the information in his hand, and opened it to look at it.

"My lord, what's wrong?" Looking at Cao Yun, who had an extremely gloomy expression, Xu Zhi and Pang Shiyuan asked out loud at the same time.

"Sun Li is attacking with a large army!" Cao Yun said in a deep voice, and handed the information in his hand to the two of them.

"What, so fast. Xu Zhi and Pang Shiyuan were both a little surprised, and at the same time took the information and looked at it together.

"This Sun Li didn't stay in Jiangling, and led the whole army to attack, this is really going to capture the entire Qingzhou by thunderous means. Xu Zhi said with emotion.

"What other garrisons does Jiangling need, Runan is his Wuzhou, and Jiangling is surrounded by Wuzhou territory. Pang Shiyuan said with a sigh.

"Order, the army assembles. ”

Cao Yun then took Xu Zhi and Pang Shiyuan to the barracks.

Zhang Zixi, who watched Cao Yun leave in the palace hall, muttered to himself: "Is there a war? Don't get hurt." His face was full of worry, and he was praying for Cao Yun in his heart.
