Han Dao world

Chapter 619

Liu Bei dared to accept Jian Yong's suggestion and decided to live and die with Pengcheng, which had a lot to do with Guan Yu and Zhao Yun's suggestions.

Liu Bei knew very little about the emperor's way of using troops, and most of them were mentioned in the letters of Guan Yu and Zhao Yun.In his opinion, there is nothing new in fact, it is nothing more than caring for soldiers and strengthening training.

All the famous generals in ancient times were like this.

He felt that, compared with these, the key was to promise land to each soldier.

Under the heavy reward, there must be a brave man.The temptation of at least [-] acres of fertile land per person is the fundamental reason why soldiers use their lives.

In order to further motivate the soldiers, Liu Bei wanted to increase the reward, raising fifty mu to one hundred mu.

But Jian Yong objected.

The reason why the soldiers believed Liu Bei's reward was because Mi Zhu was a wealthy man in the East China Sea and had such financial resources.In fact, fifty acres is just the basic line, and the soldiers who have done meritorious service will be rewarded separately. The total amount in the future will be an astonishing figure, which even Mi Zhu can't figure out.

It's just that no one thinks of that now.

In the case that the reward has already had a good effect, if the reward is easily doubled, the soldiers will be insatiable, and at the same time, it will make people suspect that Liu Bei is lying and deceiving, and has no intention of fulfilling it.

Liu Bei thought it was reasonable, so he gave up the idea of ​​raising the reward and focused on training his troops.

Chen Lin's persuasion to surrender had no results, and he himself was not in the mood to persuade him to surrender. After spending two days in the city, watching Liu Bei and his ministers prepare for the war wholeheartedly, he went out of the city contentedly.

He told Yuan Shao that Liu Bei did not want to surrender, at least not yet, so it is better to wait.

Although he didn't explicitly say that Liu Bei had the intention of descending again after a hundred days, he hinted at this point all the time.

Yuan Shao understood it, and stopped urging the siege.

There were casualties in the siege, and they were heavy casualties.Since Liu Bei will surrender sooner or later, why sacrifice soldiers in vain.

Just wait a while longer.

Shen Pei and Tian Feng didn't intend to attack by force, so the fighting eased down.

It didn't take long before Yuan Shao received the news that Cao Cao surrounded Suiyang with an army of [-], and was about to attack Suiyang.

Shenpei asked Yuan Shao to send troops back for help.

Although Suiyang could not be easily conquered by Cao Cao, but the autumn harvest is approaching, if Cao Cao is not driven away as soon as possible, Cao Cao is likely to harvest all the crops outside Suiyang City.No food, no amount of army.

After discussing with Tian Feng for a while, Yuan Shao agreed.

Anyway, they don't plan to storm Pengcheng, and it's useless for the judge to stay here. Let him go back to reinforce Suiyang and drive Cao Cao away.After the autumn harvest is over and the grain returns to the warehouse, it will not be too late to bring the grain to Pengcheng.

In order to help the trial match, Tian Feng also suggested that Yuan Shao send Zhang Ying and Gao Lan to lead the cavalry to assist the trial match.

They received news that Cao Cao had obtained many war horses from the imperial court.The cavalry led by Cao Ren and the tiger and leopard cavalry led by Cao Chun are all elite cavalry, and their combat effectiveness is not weak.Especially the latter, it is said that each soldier is carefully selected, similar to the armored cavalry under the emperor's command, has a strong ability to break the formation, and is a threat to the infantry.

Yuan Shao knew that Tian Feng's move was to show his favor to the judge, but he still agreed.

Defeating Cao Cao and defending Suiyang is related to the overall situation.Once Suiyang falls, he will not be able to besiege Pengcheng with peace of mind. After waiting for a few months, the ripening fruits will disappear.

-

Zhang He and Gao Lan led [-] cavalry and rushed forward along the Chi Road.

They rushed to the foot of Suiyang city under the order of the judge, and informed the defenders in the city that reinforcements were coming, so they could defend the city with peace of mind.

After Feng Tianfeng's secret order to wipe out Chen Deng's tribe, they endured a lot of pressure, but the income was also very considerable.The people of Jizhou firmly held the military power. Yuan Shao obeyed Tian Feng and Shenpei's words, and they were also reused, commanding the most elite cavalry.

The only regret is that Tian Feng and the judge are not in harmony, and there are conflicts from time to time.

Fortunately, these conflicts were all private and not made public.

This time Tian Feng suggested that the trial match should return to Suiyang, and then transferred the cavalry to cooperate with the trial match. The intention of repairing the relationship was very obvious.If this battle can be fought well, the trial match and Tian Feng will cooperate more tacitly, which is naturally a good thing.

The two knew Tian Feng's intentions well, and they wanted to win the battle and make new achievements.

Even so, Zhang He and Gao Lan didn't dare to be careless, and sent a large number of scouts to the front to inquire about the news, spared no effort to report back and forth, for fear of being ambushed.

They have long heard about Cao Cao's use of troops, especially the brothers Cao Ren and Cao Chun who commanded the cavalry.

"Notify the rear army to rest in Dangshan for an hour." Zhang Yun raised his head and glanced at Dangshan in front of him, and sent someone to inform Gao Lan of the rear army.

Dangshan is about [-] miles away from Suiyang. Even if Cao Jun has enough cavalry, it is unlikely to appear here.After passing Dangshan, the situation is hard to say. They may encounter the enemy at any time, and they will not be given a chance to rest peacefully.

The personal guard took the order, turned the horse's head, and galloped towards the rear army.

Zhang He rode his horse forward and gradually came to the foot of the mountain.

He looked up at the mountain, and thought of the story that Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty escaped from prison and hid in Dangshan Mountain, and Empress Lu could always find him, and he was emotional for a while.

Back then, Liu Ji never thought that he would become emperor and establish the Han family.

Today's Yuan Shao didn't expect the emperor to reverse the situation, and the fire of the great man was revived.

God's will is unpredictable, Jizhou people serve Yuan Shao, is it a moth to the fire, or a phoenix reborn?

Seeing Dangshan, the soldiers who were covered in oil and sweat from the sun dispersed one after another and rushed to the water to drink water and horses. The formation was chaotic, and many people untied the horses' girdles to make the horses relax.

Zhang Yun watched carefully, frowned, and ordered someone to beat the drums to announce that no one should untie the horse's girth, so as not to be caught off guard when attacked.

The order was sent out, but the effect was very limited.Marching in such weather, even if you don't wear armor, the sun will make you sweaty.It is also far away from Suiyang, and it is impossible to meet the enemy. Everyone is very relaxed.

Gao Lan thought the same way. Hearing the sound of war drums, he rode over and smiled at Zhang He, "Junyi, don't be so nervous."

"Yuan Guan, soldiers are fierce and dangerous, so don't be careless." Zhang Yun said solemnly: "Cao Cao often uses troops unexpectedly. Cao Ren rides horses, and he doesn't follow the rules. They are from Qiao County, not far from here, so they should be familiar The terrain here. It is not impossible to ambush here."

Gao Lan also became nervous.

Cao Cao and Cao Ren were not only from Qiao County, but also conquered Xuzhou many times, so they must pass by here, and it is inevitable to be familiar with the terrain here.

"Jun Yi is right. I heard that Cao Ren was a knight-errant when he was young and wandered between Huai and Si. This kind of person..."

Before the words fell, Gao Lan suddenly closed his mouth, turned his head and looked deep into the forest.

In the depths of the forest, frightened birds flew up.

Gao Lan suddenly felt his scalp go numb.

Zhang He was the first to react and shouted loudly. "Enemy attack—"
