Chapter 4 Situation

"Brother Ziyu is such a bad word. Today is the time of a big fight. Sending troops to seize prefectures and counties first is the best way to weaken other princes. If Jingzhou and Yuzhou are both captured by our army, with tens of millions of population resources in the two places, both food and grass and military sources will increase exponentially." Gao Cheng had not answered, but saw Xi Zhicai stand up and walk two steps, and said with a smile.

"The world is in a great way. The strong prey on the weak. If the strong ones are strong, they will be strong, and if they are weak, they will be destroyed. If the lord can fight against Jingxiang in the west and settle the Central Plains in the north, he will definitely defeat Dong Zhuo and welcome the emperor back, why worry about the unrest of the Han Dynasty?"

Zhang Zhao, who was standing in the head, couldn't help but feel a little moved when he heard these passionate words. The Han Dynasty had been established for hundreds of years and the people were still in their hearts. In addition to the ambitious people who were determined to fight for the world, most ordinary scholars had the desire to revive the Han Dynasty deep in their hearts.

Hua Xin was handsome and had a long beard. He was refuted by Xi Zhicai in person and was not angry. He just said lightly: "Military Master Xi said it well. Unfortunately, Liu Biao in Jingzhou and Yuan Shu in Yuzhou are not easy, especially Runan County, which is the foundation of the Yuan family. To say something that makes the general angry, Yangzhou is now full of soldiers and food, but it is ultimately not as good as the thousands of years of Yuan family in Runan!"

If it is a low-level world, Yangzhou's current strength is enough to sweep the world. Unfortunately, in the advanced world, soldiers and horses and money are not the biggest factors in the battle for hegemony. A strong man in the supernatural power realm can easily kill an army of ten thousand people. If he starts a killing spree, no matter how strong the power is, he will not be able to withstand it.

Zhang Zhao and several other scholars from aristocratic families looked at each other and felt that what Hua Xin said made sense. Yuan is one of the eight major families in the world, with countless disciples and officials, and I don’t know how many masters and guest officials have been gathered. Especially Runan is still the foundation of the other party. Once troops are sent, no one dares to win without the ninth level of refining the Gang or the magical artifact to suppress the formation.

Now Lu Dai and Zhou Tai stationed troops in Ruyin, relying on the advantage of warships on Yingshui to hold Ji Ling up.

Xi Zhicai's expression remained unchanged. He was not scared by the Yuan family of Runan that Hua Xin said, but said in a deep voice: "It is precisely because of this that we must send troops as soon as possible. Before the Yuan family's accumulation has been exerted, we must send troops to improve our strength as soon as possible!"

Hua Xin smiled and stopped talking. At the beginning, he was the prefect of Yuzhang and a famous scholar in the world. After being forced to surrender, he came to Shouchun to serve as the prefect of Jiujiang.

Unlike Xi Zhicai and Zhang Zhao, who formally defected to Gao Cheng, he was Gao Cheng's subordinate and not a retainer in his official position. He had already done his duty when expressing his opinions when discussing matters. If Gao Cheng sent troops and was defeated by Yuan, it would have nothing to do with him.

Gao Cheng raised his hand and stopped the two of them from discussing. Hua Xin was the third Duke of Cao Wei in the future, served as the Minister of the Shangshu, the Prime Minister, and was also a talent for the slave. This person has a deep background and once appointed as the Grand Marshal Chen Qiu as his teacher. He has a close relationship with the Chen family of Guangling. Now his mental power is hidden and he has reached the fifth level of soul refining.

For such talents, we can only slowly win over them.

Gao Cheng turned his gaze to a kind young man kneeling at the bottom of the right side, with a smile on his face and said, "Zijing, you are a military officer, what are your opinions on sending troops?"

If Gao Cheng's biggest gain in the gourd world is the dragon clone, then the biggest gain of the original body in Yangzhou in the past two or three years is that Lu Su, who was originally known as one of the four heroes of the Eastern Wu, took the initiative to come and defect.

The four heroes of the Eastern Wu, the twelve tiger ministers, the four prime ministers of the Shu Han, the five tigers, the eight tiger cavalry of the Cao Wei, and the five good generals. These famous ministers and generals were originally famous in Gao Cheng for the ages, so naturally they had extraordinary abilities.

After Gao Cheng occupied Yangzhou, many famous ministers and generals who originally belonged to the Eastern Wu were taken over. Among them, the four heroes of the Eastern Wu were Zhou Yu, Lu Xun, Lu Su and Lu Meng! These four men served as the Grand Commander and made the most important contributions to the Eastern Wu.

Zhou Yu defeated Cao Cao at Chibi, Lu Xun and Yiling defeated Liu Bei, and Lu Mengyin attacked Guan Yu to occupy Jingzhou. Lu Su proposed the best strategy to guide the Eastern Wu strategy.

Now Zhou Yu and Lu Su have both been transformed into Gao Cheng's subordinates. It can be foreseen that Lu Xun and Lu Meng will be included in him in the future. After all, Lu Xun is a child of the Lu family in Lujiang, and Lu Meng was born into a poor family in Runan and should have come to Yangzhou during the previous few migrations of refugees.

Of course, Lu Xun and Lu Meng are both things in the future. Now that Gao Cheng has Zhou Yu and Lu Su, he is already very satisfied.

After Lu Su surrendered to Shouchun, Zhang Zhao and Zhou Yu talked to him and admired his abilities very much, so he recommended him to work as a military officer and assisted Gao Tai in the training of new recruits. He provided reserve troops to Zhou Yu, Lu Dai and Wu'anguo. His status in Yangzhou is considered to be of medium status.

Lu Su looked up at Gao Cheng, feeling a little surprised. He had made suggestions several times before, and some suggestions were adopted or not.

The Right General was famous all over the world and had extraordinary achievements in the past, but after his observation, the other party should have a steady personality. Unexpectedly, he suddenly thought about sending troops and took the initiative to seek his own opinions.

"Reported to the right general, I think we should send troops, but we did not send troops to Yuzhou, but took Guangling first and took down all the land south of the Huai River! In this way, the defense line in the eastern part of our army will be pushed from the river to the Huai River. At that time, only navy troops can block the river, making it difficult for Xuzhou troops to cross the border!"

Lu Su stepped forward and bowed, then slowly expressed his opinion. "With the navy blocking the river, General Wu'an, who was originally stationed in Zhongli, could lead his army to Ruyin to support him. At this time, he would have a great chance of winning!"

As soon as this statement came out, Xi Zhicai, Hua Xin and others all looked slightly moved, especially Xi Zhicai. Only then did he realize that there was a talent under his lord who was good at strategic temple calculations. After careful sensing, he also found that Lu Su's spiritual power was very obscure, like a bottomless well, hiding powerful power.

Lu Su was used to being low-key. Except for Zhang Zhao and Zhou Yu who knew him a little, everyone else only regarded him as a friend with a kind personality and could interact with each other, and did not know his abilities.

Gao Cheng laughed and showed admiration. He said, "Zi Jing's words are profound and my intentions. Liu Biao and Yuan Shu have a deep foundation and are eager to find it difficult to solve it. Tao Qian, Xuzhou, although there are enough food and supplies, has few generals under his command. He is the weakest among the three forces. I will lead the troops personally and will definitely defeat him!"

After returning to Yangzhou to sort out his memories, he had already made a decision and was about to break the encirclement composed of Liu Biao, Yuan Shu and Tao Qian.

"Mr. Zhang, you are the chief minister of the General's Mansion, please stay in the rear for me and prepare food, grass and military supplies!"

Gao Cheng stood up and saluted Zhang Zhao. Zhang Zhao quickly replied: "I will accept the order! I will never let down the trust of the right general."

When a large army is dispatched, the most important thing is logistics support. Zhang Zhao is not very good at making suggestions for marching and fighting, but he has few skills in preparing money, grain, and military funds to sort out internal affairs.

Gao Cheng was quite relieved to hand over the rear to him. Of course, in addition to Zhang Zhao, Gao Tai also guarded the rear. Gao Tai followed Gao Cheng for many years and has been loyal. After continuous training, he has gradually grown up. Although he has no outstanding advantages, he has no flaws. He is stable and has been named General Jianwu, and his military power is not weak.
