Chapter 1813 Grain Dao Competition [-]
"Pessimistic?" Yi Ji didn't understand: "Why do you say that!"

"If he didn't feel Jiangdong's future, he wouldn't do it!" Gu Yong said in a low voice: "Killing Sun Zhongmou is actually the best way!"

He smiled, and continued: "If it were me, I would choose to take the opportunity to kill Sun Zhongmou, and then push this charge to the Jiangdong family, and then lead the army to make an example!"

"Won't Jiangdong be chaotic?" Yi Ji frowned slightly.

"The chaos is a bit chaotic, but you can take the opportunity to do some things, and at this time, your Ming army doesn't have enough troops to attack Jiangdong. They still have time!"

Gu Yong said: "With Zhou Yu's cleverness and calculation, coupled with Zhang Zhao's ability, these so-called turmoil can actually be suppressed. In this way, a united Wu Dynasty can be left behind, and all Jiangdong People's back road is cut off, and those who can be twisted into a ball in the future will fight to the death with the Ming army!"

"But he didn't choose to do that. Instead, he used the blood of Yuzhang Wei's family to put an end to Sun Quan's return to Jiangdong!"

Yiji suddenly understood: "He is leaving a way for Jiangdong. Now Sun Quan has no way to break out of their control, but if Sun Ce is defeated in the future, then at least Sun Quan will stand up and surrender to our country of Wu. Jiangdong's breath of vitality, instead of letting the future Jiangdong, in the flames of war, be empty!"

This calculation is far-reaching, but it seems pessimistic. That is to say, in Zhou Yu's heart, he no longer has absolute confidence to compete with the Ming army.

"That's it!"

Gu Yong said: "The situation in this world is changing so fast that even Zhou Gongjin can't see it clearly. In addition, your Ming army is too strong, so strong that it is not surprising that the world changes color and the dynasty changes!"

He looked at the faint blue fields in the sky: "Perhaps there will be more and more Jiangdong people who are willing to surrender to you. After all, people yearn for the side that wins!"

"That is to say, if we win the battle in the northern border, maybe Jiangdong doesn't need to fight at all, and we can get it at our fingertips!" Yi Ji's eyes lit up.

"Not necessarily!"

Gu Yong shook his head: "Most people can't represent Sun Bofu, the little overlord of Jiangdong, this little just refers to his age, he is a overlord after 400 years, this person is too proud, he can't bear to fail, So he will fight to the end with you, even if he is faced with an ambush from all sides, he will not give up, if you want Jiangdong, you still have to defeat him!"

"Humph!"

Yiji said with a sneer: "If the main force of our army is here, he can't stop it if he wants to!"

Their main force has never entered Jiangdong.

But this time, Sun Ce sent troops to entangle Huang Zhong's main force, which indeed caused some grievances. It's okay to not fight this battle.

"Although Sun Quan has returned to Jiangdong, it can cause some troubles for Sun Ce, but it will not affect too much. Zhou Yu is more than a few. In addition, you have been keeping a low profile recently. Zhou Yu dared to attack the Wei family in Yuzhang. He is already tearing his face. Now, he won't have too many bottom lines now!"

Gu Yong warned: "If you fall into his hands, it is impossible for us to help, because at this moment, except for the Wei family, all of us are still waiting to see whether your Ming court can replace the Han Dynasty. , it's too early to say!"

"Understood!"

Yiji also knew that it was unlikely that the Jiangdong aristocratic family would surrender at this time. After all, the aristocratic family and the situation were in danger, so they would not bet easily.

He looked to the north and said faintly: "But I believe that our Ming Dynasty will not be defeated. The world belongs to our Ming court!"

........................

Luoyang City.

After changing hands several times, this city has become a thousand warehouses and full of holes. The traces of the fire at the beginning are still there, but now countless traces have been added after the war.

There are even fewer people in the city. Sometimes you can walk two streets without seeing a single person.

There is no way, the war can involve many people, and it can also make many people fear. With the Ming army defending the city, the Wei army and the Yan army attacked the city, and then the Ming army came back.

It's frustrating and I don't know who to trust.

But it also made some people numb, whoever loves will come, as long as they can live, they will already be thankful to you.

In fact, in this era, many people have become numb. The war has been covering them all the time, and they no longer care about how long they can be afraid of themselves.

That being the case, they can only live with peace of mind, even if the flames of war spread to the front of their house, as long as they can survive, they will use all their strength to survive.

"Although some of these people came back with us, some of them will stay here even if they die. The way they look at us has lost a lot of trust!"

Xu Shu's eyes swept over, and he could see that every household with people was closing their doors. These people might be really scared.

They don't trust anyone anymore.

"In the future, if we want to manage this city, we have a long way to go!"

Xu Shu felt a lot of emotions in his heart.

"My lord, as long as the war is over, we will one day make the people trust us again!" a confidant said softly.

"I hope so!"

Xu Shu is not a sentimental person, but he just walks all the way, feeling a little bit emotional, and when the feeling passes, he will return to the right track immediately.

"My lord, General Chen Dao Zhonglang is back, please go and discuss the military situation immediately!"

A cavalry rode up.

"it is good!"

Xu Shu took a deep breath, calmed down his restless mood, and returned to the Governor's Mansion of Luozhou.

The Luozhou Governor's Mansion has become the headquarters of the Ming army's logistics line.

And the person who is in charge of the house is Xu Shu.

Among the leading generals, Zhang Ren, Pang Xi, and Chen Dao all had the ability to lead the army to the north and open up the grain road.

However, in Luoyang, the person who is most familiar with the terrain and also the wisest person is Xu Shu. They are willing to trust Xu Shu and fight according to Xu Shu's layout.

………………

"How's the situation?" Xu Shu strode in, and asked immediately before shaking off all the snowflakes on his body.

A large number of generals have gathered here, and they are discussing against the sand table.

"Can't beat it!"

Chen Dao bowed his hands and saluted.

Xu Shu belonged to the Political Affairs Hall, and they belonged to the Privy Council. It is reasonable that they are not a system, but now it is wartime, and wartime will not pay too much attention to these things.

After saluting to Xu Shu, he said: "I led the army to cross the Yellow River smoothly, but on the north bank of the Yellow River, there are too many roads. The enemy tiger and leopard cavalry have been guarding against us. If we want to transport food, we will not be able to cross it. Even if we transport troops It is very difficult to go north, let alone transport food!"

"Tiger and leopard ride?"

Xu Shu narrowed his eyes: "Wei Jun has spent a lot of money. He even released the tiger and leopard cavalry. The speed of the tiger and leopard cavalry is too fast. You can't get over it. That's normal!"

"Now we have no way to enter Shangdang from Hanoi, which means we are stuck in Hanoi. If Shangdang does not continue to receive our food and grass support, there will definitely be problems with the army's logistics!"

Pang Xi raised his head and glanced at Xu Shu: "My cavalry is still capable of fighting, why don't you let me go north, entangle the tiger and leopard cavalry, and then let Chen Dao Yunliang go north, no matter what, we have to make a breakthrough!"

"Once your cavalry is dispatched, it's not as simple as breaking through the grain road!"

Xu Shu shook his head.

He paced back and forth, his eyes flickering coldly.

"General Zhang Ren, do you have an idea?"

Xu Shu glanced sideways at Zhang Ren.

"It's still the same idea, go to Hedong!"

Zhang Rendao: "Even if the main force of the Wei army can enter Hedong, it will not be too large. They dare not divide the troops. Dividing the troops is equivalent to losing the effect of siege on the main battlefield. It is easy to be directly killed by the main force of our army! "

"So the defense of Hedong is the lowest!" Zhang Ren continued: "As long as we enter from Hedong, even if they dare to send troops into Hedong, I will be sure to break through!"

"But even if we can break through, how much food and grass can we transport there? The food and grass of your Majesty's hundreds of thousands of troops is not a small amount. They don't need to stop you at all, they just need to keep harassing you. You still want to transport food into the upper Party?"

Xu Shu sighed, and said helplessly, "We can't underestimate the Wei army. The Wei army is not inferior to our Ming army in terms of strategic or tactical arrangements!"

"Then what should we do now, neither the left nor the right, can we just watch His Majesty's hundreds of thousands of troops run out of food for the winter?"

Chen Dao's temper couldn't be suppressed a little, and he charged at the case: "I'll force my way in, isn't it just a fight to the death, I don't believe they can stop it, at worst I will throw all my troops in!"

"Uncle Zhi!"

Zhang Ren glanced at Chen Dao and shook his head.

Chen Dao gritted his teeth and sat down.

"At this point, we can only take risks!"

Xu Shu sighed.

It was a dangerous move, if they really went on, this move would drag them all to death, and perhaps exhaust all Luo Yang's troops.

But at this point, they have no other choice.

"Any news from Jing Wusi?"

Zhang Ren's eyes lit up.

He also agreed with Xu Shu's idea at the beginning, and it was possible to stand out from other people's layout by attacking him by surprise.

"There is a general orientation, as for the detailed points, we still need to investigate!"

Xu Shu said: "Insufficient preparations and long-distance raids, we suffer a lot. Once we don't know the point, then we will fall short, and we may plunge into other people's main army camps. At that time, it will really be stealing." A chicken can't be eaten without rice!"

"But now we have no better solution. Uncle Zhi led the army to the north. I went to see that the main force of the Wei army on the other side of the Yellow River is not limited, especially in Hanoi. They didn't give us any chance at all!"

Zhang Ren said in a low voice: "Ever since they knew that Luoyang was lost, they have been preparing for us to transport food northward. Trapping the main force of our army in Shangdang is one of their strategic and tactical arrangements!"

"So we can only fight with our backs!"

Xu Shu made up his mind.

Zhang Ren, Pang Xi, and Chen Dao looked at each other, cupped their hands and said, "We will follow Master Xu's strategy and fight hard!"

"it is good!"

Xu Shu took a deep breath, and then began to assign tasks: "I am not a member of the Privy Council, but there are special circumstances and special treatment. If there is any overreach in the future, I will personally explain it to Zhaoming Pavilion. From now on, all the troops in Luoyang , be ordered by me!"

"Yes!"

"This time we will divide our troops into two groups. The first route will be led by me personally to transport grain to the north. After we cross the Yellow River, we will divide our troops here. But the division is not the main force, but a feigned attack along the way, transporting grain along the way, whether we can transport it to the north or not. , It depends on how many troops there are on the east side of the river!"

"The main route is on the east side of the river?" The generals squinted their eyes.

"Hanoi is still too powerful for the Wei army. Even if we have a chance to break through, with the pursuit ability of their tiger and leopard cavalry, we can't transport much food and grass!"

Xu Shu nodded.

"What's the rest of the way?"

"Assault on Wei Junliang Road!"

When Xu Shu said this, everyone was shocked.

"I will take half of Luoyang City's troops, and Uncle Chen will fight with me. As for the two of you, I don't need to arrange the specific battle plan for you. I will inform you of the news from Jingwu Division at any time. I only have one request. Even if you can't make a surprise attack, you still have to retreat completely, and you can't lose too many troops!"

"Yes!"

Pang Xi and Zhang Ren looked at each other, and bowed their hands to accept the order.

"This battle is about whether we can transport food to the north and solve your majesty's difficulties. Let's encourage each other!"

Xu Shu saluted all the generals.

"Let's encourage each other!"

Resoluteness and firmness also appeared on the faces of the generals.
