"On that day, I went to the General's Mansion for a banquet and heard my lord's poem about Liangzhou with my own ears. I wonder if you still remember it?"
Everyone was talking about it, and many people even recited the Liangzhou poem. This poem has a unique style and profound connotations. It has long been spread among the Han Dynasty, and many scholars have praised it.
Guo Jiadao: "Who do you think the biggest enemy of the Xiliang Army is?"
Jia Rong suddenly understood and looked at the reactions of everyone in the tent with a smile. With Guo Jia's talent, it was not a problem to be promoted one after another, but after all, he had only been in the Xiliang Army Group for a short time and lacked enough prestige. If this strategy was successful, he would be
Promotion is a sure thing.
"Yuan Shao", "Cao Cao" and "Liu Biao" were even mentioned as "Ding Tai" in Bingzhou. I wonder what Ding Tai thought when he found out.
Guo Jia shook his head slightly, picked up the tea in front of him and took a leisurely sip.
Seeing Guo Jia Tuo, many officials had unhappy expressions on their faces. In any case, Guo Jia's experience in the Xiliang Army was still shallow. If it were Jia Xu who did this, all the officials would definitely be used to it.
"The biggest enemy of the Xiliang Army is the Xianbei on the grassland!" Guo Jia said lightly.
Jia Xu, who was beside Guo Jia, showed a faint smile and nodded slightly, seeming to agree with Guo Jia's statement.
"The whole country of Xianbei is equipped with soldiers. The soldiers can mount their horses to fight and dismount their horses to plow the fields. Such an enemy is nothing to worry about when the Han Dynasty is strong. At the beginning, Tan Shihuai unified all the Xianbei tribes and had more than 200,000 string-controllers under his command.
Why are you willing to succumb to the harsh climate of the grasslands instead of aspire to conquer the Central Plains?"
"Now the princes of the Central Plains are occupying each other and the royal family is weakened. If Xianbei breaks through Yanmen Pass, just imagine what will happen to the people of Youzhou and Bingzhou. Remember that the Xianbei people have a rule. All Han men who are over the wheel will be killed, and all women will be killed.
Take them all away and make them slaves."
Many officials turned slightly pale. It was obvious that they were aware of the Xianbei people's behavior.
"The existence of Xianbei will contain the Xiliang army to a great extent. Just imagine, if the lord leads the soldiers to fight with the princes of the Central Plains, and the Xianbei people take the opportunity to attack Beidi County, what kind of situation will the Xiliang army be in?"
Guo Jia raised his hands slightly and dropped them heavily, "So, Xianbei must be eradicated!"
Everyone here is the core figure of the Xiliang Army. Guo Jia is not afraid that this matter will be leaked. Of course, if the people of the world know that the Xiliang Army is determined to eradicate Xianbei, they will definitely be happy. The Han Dynasty is fighting against Xianbei.
The wars between the Huan and Qiang people exhausted the country's power and increased taxes, which aroused the anger of heaven and the resentment of people.
Seeing Guo Jia's meticulous analysis, Jia Rong made the final decision: "It is imperative to defeat Xianbei. All supplies such as grain and grass must be fully prepared, and everyone must perform their duties without neglect. All matters must be subject to the full command of the General's Office. Any violation of laws and regulations is prohibited."
Those who engage in military law."
Everyone looked solemn and made a promise together.
"Master Wang, I hope you will take more care about the food and grass matters!" Jia Rong turned his attention to Wang Mu.
"No!" Wang Mu said, cupping his fists.
"Master Zhang, we need a strong backup to fight Xianbei. I will entrust you with the affairs of Chang'an."
Zhang Li looked solemn, stepped forward and bowed: "No!"
"Everyone else, please do your duty and obey orders!" Jia Rong said loudly.
After everyone dispersed, Jia Rong left behind four people: Jia Xu, Zhang Li, Zhang Zhao and Guo Jia.
"Fengxiao, tell me your specific strategy!" The meeting just now almost became Guo Jia's talk.
"My lord, I am in a humble position and have little talent and little knowledge. I would like to hear what the military advisor has to say."
Jia Rong said with a smile: "In this case, there will be military advisor Lao." Unexpectedly, Guo Jia was quite good at life.
"My lord, Xianbei has raised 80,000 troops, which is all the national strength. It must be empty internally. If a Han army suddenly appears at Xianbei headquarters, what will be the effect?"
Jia Rong looked stern, Jiang was still very old. He was thinking about how to repel the Xianbei people, but Jia Xu was thinking about how to completely defeat the Xianbei people. If the Xianbei headquarters were in chaos, the Xianbei army fighting at Yanmen Pass would definitely be full of fighting spirit.
Wu, who wanted to return to his tribe, it would not be difficult for the Han army in Yanmen Pass to take advantage of the victory to pursue and defeat Xianbei.
"I would like to hear the details." Jia Rong looked solemn.
"Yanmen Pass is a natural danger. Zhou Yi is a veteran on the battlefield. He has three thousand soldiers and horses in his hands, which is enough to guard it for more than a month. On the one hand, the lord can send soldiers and horses to Bingzhou to help Bingzhou Mu Dingtai calm down the Xiongnu disaster, and send another brave general.
, lead the troops to the Xianbei headquarters."
After hearing Jia Xu's plan, Guo Jia's relaxed expression disappeared. This plan was not innocuous. It helped Ding Tai pacify the Huns. Then the ownership of the city captured by the Xiliang Army was naturally a problem. The dispatched general
When he leads his army to the Xianbei headquarters, there will definitely be another bloody storm. Once the plan comes out, tens of thousands of people will die.
Zhou Yi was left at Yanmen Pass to resist the enemy. After one month, how many soldiers and horses could be left under his command? The strength of Ding Tai's troops was not a secret among the upper echelons of the Xiliang Army, and there were many people from Bingzhou in the Xiliang Army.
"Okay! This matter will be left to the military advisor and Fengxiao. We must come up with a complete plan."
"No!" The two looked at each other, stood up and bowed.
Jia Rong turned his attention to Zhang Li, "Chang'an's money and food can allow the Mi family, the Wei family, and the Xianlian Pavilion to take care of the following affairs in the city. I'm sorry to bother you, sir."
Zhang Li bowed and said, "It is my duty to do so!"
"Sir Zhang, the Xiliang Army's battle with Xianbei this time will definitely be a protracted war. If you find any changes in the officials under your command, kill them first and then report them. If you don't have enough money and food, you can turn it over to the Mi family."
Zhang Zhao looked excited and bowed: "No!" The power Jia Rong gave him was not insignificant. He killed it first and then reported it. With this sword in his hand, any official of the Xiliang Army would not be respectful to Zhang Zhao when he saw him in the future. Jia Rong
Rong's words also completely established his position in the Xiliang army.
After the four people left, Jia Rong got up and went to the craftsman's workshop. In war, sophisticated weapons are an important guarantee for soldiers to kill the enemy.
"These are the serial crossbow vehicles produced according to the Lord's wishes. There are five hundred units in total." Pu Yuan said.
Jia Rong looked at the row of ballistas lined up with a moved expression. He seemed to have seen such a ballista suddenly appear in front of the battle formation, and the enemy fell down like wheat.
"Very good!" Jia Rong said.
Pu Yuandao: Lord, these are 20,000 war knives, all of which are made using coal as a fire source. They are more than twice as sharp and strong as the previous weapons!"
Jia Rong nodded slightly, naturally trying his best to appear calm in front of his subordinates.
Ten thousand scimitars lay quietly in the box, like an exhibition. Zhao Yun followed Jia Rong, his expression uneasy.
As for the hand crossbows and other weapons used by the lone wolf soldiers, they are all kept secret. Even the senior generals in the army do not know about it. The daggers in the hands of the lone wolf soldiers were replaced by Jia Rong with terrifyingly powerful three-sided military thorns.
"This is the plate armor used by soldiers! It is completely made according to the wishes of the lord."
It can be said that most of the money earned by the Xiliang army was invested in craftsmen's workshops.
Jia Rong laughed and said: "Our army has so many sharp weapons, why worry about being defeated by the enemy?"
"Lord, these ballistas, however, consume arrows similar to those of short spears. They cost a lot of money." Pu Yuan said with pain.
Jia Rong shook his head and said: "Master Pu, what you said is wrong. With this sharp weapon, it can greatly weaken the enemy's strength and save the lives of our soldiers. Why waste time? Just make it. As for the crossbow arrows, make 20,000 first."
!”
"No!" Pu Yuan bowed and said.
Such a crossbow is extremely powerful in field battles, but it only gives the enemy a shock once. With the current speed of the serial crossbow, there is no time to prepare the second wave of arrows.
The huge machine of the Xiliang Army started operating in an orderly manner under Jia Rong's order. The cavalry were assigned brand-new armors and scimitars, and the soldiers were assigned sophisticated weapons. In order to adapt to the new weapons, the soldiers trained with an unprecedented intensity.
soar.
Three days later, at the main camp of the Chinese army, Jia Rong said in a deep voice: "Guo Si is the leader, Jiang Yu is the assistant, and Xu Shu is the accompanying military advisor. He leads 3,000 cavalry and 5,000 infantry to Bingzhou to assist Ding Tai in quelling the Xiongnu rebellion. There will be
General Hua Xiong responded. After entering Bingzhou, the people must not be disturbed. Chang'an will send officials and soldiers to take over the captured cities."
"No!" The three of them worshiped in unison, especially Guo Si, who was leading an army for the first time and was also the commander-in-chief, which was of great significance.
Since he joined the Xiliang Army, no one in the Xiliang Army dared to underestimate him because of his identity. He held the position of a camp general, but he lacked sufficient prestige. To put it bluntly, he had not made any great military exploits.
"Guo Si is appointed as the division commander, and Jiang Yu is the deputy division commander! All troops will leave immediately!" Jia Rong ordered.
"When it comes to grain and grass supplies, Wang Mu and Zhang Zhao are responsible for it, and there must be no mistakes! The other officials should perform their respective duties and must not be neglected."
"No!" Everyone said in unison.
After the officials dispersed, Jia Rong left four people, Guo Jia, Jia Xu, Zhang Zhao, and Zhang Li. Now, the four of them can be said to have high positions in the Xiliang army.
"The troops heading to the Xianbei headquarters will be led by my general, with three thousand cavalry. Zhao Yun will be the deputy general, and Guo Jia will serve as the accompanying military advisor!" Jia Rong said calmly.
One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and Jia Rong went out to fight again. It was understandable that the four people were shocked. They did not want Jia Rong to put himself in danger.
"My lord, think twice. Now the Xiliang army has millions of people under its control and an army of one hundred thousand. My lord, you must not put yourself in danger. As the saying goes, a gentleman will not stand under a dangerous wall!" Jia Xu looked shocked.
Guo Jia took a look at Jia Xu, and finally saw the excited moment of this normally indifferent military advisor.
"Lord, think twice!" The four of them bowed in unison.
"I have decided on this matter. In Chang'an City, Wenhe is in charge of intelligence, Zirong is in charge of internal affairs, Zibu is in charge of officials, and Wang Mu is in charge of food and grass. I have nothing to worry about. After all, I am also a general of the Han Dynasty. I can't sit back and tolerate what Xianbei does.
Therefore, it is imperative to eradicate Xianbei. Feng Xiao also said before that Xianbei is the biggest enemy of the Xiliang Army."
Without waiting for the four people to argue, Jia Rong continued: "I have walked through the desert from Beidi County to Xianbei before, and I am relatively familiar with it. There is no need to worry! Moreover, officials from Beidi County have also sent people to explore it many times.
As long as you are properly prepared, there is no danger."
