Jia Rong got Zhan Lujian and the officials in Chang'an saw that it was not that simple. Many officials believed that this was God's intention, which meant that Jia Rong would become a prince. In the Han Dynasty, the prince was not that easy to be.
Yes, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, Liu Bang famously decreed that no one with a foreign surname could be the king.
But now, the weapons of the princes in the world have the emperor Yuan Shu, and Jia Rong is just a king, so what is there to make a fuss about? The current Han Dynasty is like the scene in the Warring States period, fighting with each other because of interests, completely
He did not pay attention to the people of Li in the world. Betrayals, assassinations, and plunders were staged every day. With the strength of the Xiliang army, Jia Rong could still afford it if he wanted to become king.
Zhang Zhao and dozens of more influential officials in Chang'an wrote a letter asking Jia Rong to become king, but Jia Rong shook his head and denied it.
Yuan Shu was destined to be emperor for a long time. He was beaten by Cao Cao and could only shrink into a corner. The food the emperor ate was not even as good as the ordinary officials of the Xiliang Army. Could such an emperor win over his ministers to work for him? If not
The aquatic products under his rule were abundant, and it is estimated that Yuan Shu's army would have collapsed long ago.
Just because Jia Rong didn't claim the title of king, it didn't mean that others wouldn't dare. In the sixth year of Xingping, Liu Yan of Yizhou came to the throne of Hanzhong. The world was shocked for a while. Liu Yan had always stayed in Yizhou, the land of abundance where the great ancestor made his fortune. He was not affected by the turmoil among the princes of the Central Plains.
The impact is naturally that the army is well-equipped with food and supplies.
Then Liu Biao ascended the throne as King of Jing and announced to the world.
Since then, one emperor and two kings have appeared in the world.
Yuan Shu, the emperor, was destined not to last long. As soon as Cao Cao had his hands free, the first thing he had to do was to completely eradicate Yuan Shu. He was not as greedy as the princes. Cao Cao still used his position as a Han hussar general and pursued what ministers should do.
The Central Plains also gained a good reputation and attracted many scholars to like him.
However, Yuan Shu still had something in his hands. Even under Cao Cao's fierce offensive, he was still able to stand firm without letting Cao Cao take any advantage. What's more, there was Liu Biao, King of Jing, eyeing him.
After recuperating, Liangzhou had one of the few good harvest years, and the grain and grass in the warehouses became abundant again. Coupled with the support of two relatives, Mi Zhu and Wei Guan, the Xiliang army soon obtained a large amount of food from the rich areas of the Central Plains.
The supply of food and fodder and the 100,000 standing army have been recruited, and the whole army is in high morale.
In the General's Mansion, Jia Rongduan sat on the throne and looked at the civil and military officials in the hall, feeling proud in his heart.
"Li Ru of Bingzhou once betrayed the Xiliang Army. This general wants to send troops to Bingzhou to regain the territory." Jia Rong said word by word.
When the generals in the hall heard this, they looked shocked. In the past, they were summoned to discuss matters, which were nothing more than domestic affairs that did not interest you. They rarely involved military affairs. Now that the Xiliang Army is planning to launch an army, it is natural that military generals are indispensable.
Come and play.
"The three armies have not moved, and the food and grass must go first. Mr. Zhang, are there any difficulties with the food and grass?" Jia Rong turned his attention to Zhang Li.
"General, the food and fodder in the warehouse is enough to consume an army of 50,000 for a year." Zhang Li cupped his hands and replied. Chang'an's senior officials had already received Jia Rong's order when the princes retreated, and they would take action against Bingzhou. That's why
The hoarding of food and supplies has never stopped.
Jia Rong nodded slightly, "Soldiers rely on their own strength and elite armor to kill enemies on the battlefield. How many people can use the weapons made in the craftsman's workshop?"
Pu Yuan replied: "General, the weapons are enough to support an army of fifty thousand!"
"Well, I've got to thank Master Pu for this matter. The craftsman's workshop is the foundation of our army. We must not lose anything. Be careful of princes fishing in troubled waters and inquiring about the news." Jia Rong warned.
"No!" Pu Yuandao said. In recent years, with the continuous development of the war, Pu Yuan's position in the Xiliang Army has become more and more important. None of the civil servants and military generals said anything because of Pu Yuan's origin. On the contrary, the generals
When they met Pu Yuan, they were respectful. This man was the man who provided magic weapons. They did not dare to provoke him. If they accidentally made him unhappy, it would affect whether they could obtain good weapons.
The improvement of his status made Pu Yuan more cautious. During the time to recuperate, the General's Office executed a group of corrupt officials. The methods of divine punishment were pervasive. Pu Yuan was not so arrogant that he could run amok just by relying on his merits.
.
"Siege equipment must be built in large quantities. No equipment can be remade, but it is extremely difficult to train a soldier after losing one."
"promise!"
Jia Rong cleared his throat, glanced at everyone in the hall, and said: "This general is going to attack Bingzhou. I want to raise 50,000 troops."
The general, who had no energy just now, immediately became excited, knowing that the main event was coming.
"The army is dispatched. I wonder which general is willing to serve as the vanguard?"
As soon as he finished speaking, several generals immediately stood up.
Jia Rong's face became serious and he said: "The vanguard is the vanguard of the army. They open roads across mountains and fill bridges when encountering water. They also have to find out the enemy's movements along the way. When fighting, they take the lead and are not afraid of death. The soldiers under their command dare to use their lives to attack the city.
Only those who are brave and resourceful can take charge of the stronghold."
"Fengxian, are you willing to serve as the vanguard of the army?"
Lu Bu knelt down on one knee, clasped his fists and said, "If you can't fulfill the important tasks entrusted to you by the general, I'm willing to come and see you." Being on the grassland these years has made Lu Bu quite uncomfortable. Occasionally, he heard that horse thieves appeared somewhere, and he was very worried.
I was excited to go. The three fortified cities on the grassland have become holy places on the grassland. Herders on the grassland live inside and outside the city. Lu Bu is only responsible for the safety of Danhan City and monitoring the various tribes. Under the heavy pressure of the Xiliang Army,
Due to these measures, most of the aristocrats on the grassland have declined and have become ordinary people on the grassland, without the influence they had in the past.
"Fengxian bravely champions the three armies and is the leader of the Xiliang army's tiger generals!" Jia Rong praised.
When the generals in the hall heard Jia Rong's words, they all looked at Lu Bu with envy. In the past, although the generals in the army secretly ranked each general, the meaning was naturally different from Jia Rong's words. Presumably, after today, Lu Bu
The name will resound throughout the Xiliang Army.
Lu Bu's hands trembled slightly. He thought that after he accidentally let the Han Emperor go, the Xiliang army would be suppressed. Unexpectedly, Jia Rong did not care about the past grudges at all. Looking at the world's princes, who can have such a mind, and Lu Bu also
Having saved a considerable sum of money, he would have no problem even if he lived well in the rest of his life. What made him even more reassured was that with the help of Wei Fu, he got married to the daughter of a wealthy businessman, and now he has
Having children means you have a family.
"In this humble position, I will do my best to wipe out the enemies in Bingzhou for the general, and bring the head of Li Ru's dog thief to the general." Lu Bu said in a deep voice, his blood boiling in his chest, and he wanted to immediately pick up the weapon and attack Bingzhou.
"Feng Xian, you must think carefully about everything. Bingzhou Li Ru is very cunning. You must not let your soldiers suffer innocent losses because of your carelessness." Jia Rong warned.
"promise!"
"The commander of the first army!"
All the generals stared at Jia Rong with sharp eyes, fearing that they would miss any detail.
"Huang Zhong!"
The generals breathed a sigh of relief. Although they had the answer in their hearts, they were inevitably a little disappointed when they actually found out. Since the capture of Dai County, Huang Zhong's status in the army has skyrocketed, and now he is the regimental general.
Entering the core of the Xiliang Army, he not only has strategies, but also has strong martial arts. He always guides others carefully when they encounter difficulties, and is very popular in the army.
Huang Zhong walked out steadily, cupped his fists and said: "I'm here to serve you!"
"The first route of the army, commanding 3,000 cavalry and 7,000 infantry, will set off at a certain date. The significance of the first route is of great importance. I won't say much. I will wait for Han Sheng to return victoriously and will greet you at Feng Lai Tower!"
Jia Rongdao.
Everyone in the hall burst into laughter. The story of Huang Zhong and Guo Jia at Feng Lai Tower was widely spread among the Xiliang Army. The two wine lovers were often teased by civil servants and military officers.
Huang Zhong blushed slightly and said in a deep voice: "Thank you for your trust, general. I will do my best in this humble position and I will not give up until I capture Bingzhou!"
"Coach of the second army!" Jia Rong continued: "Zhao Yun!"
The generals were whispering to each other and discussing. Among the Xiliang army, Zhao Yun's qualifications were not high. He used to be the commander of Jia Rong's bodyguard, but now he has become the commander-in-chief of the army. His future is unlimited.
"Here I am!" Zhao Yun's handsome face was filled with blush. He became the marching coach for the first time. You can imagine the excitement in his heart.
"Command 2,000 cavalry and 3,000 infantry. The army will set off on a certain day!"
"promise!"
"Coach of the third army!" Jia Rong pointed at himself with a smile and said, "Of course it's me!"
Everyone did not expect that Jia Rong would make such a joke, and they all laughed. No matter how high the prestige of these generals in the army, they could never defeat Jia Rong. This is an indisputable fact.
"Li Ru, Bingzhou, is not an idle person. The generals who are selected to fight on the battlefield must not underestimate the enemy and act rashly. They must not be greedy for merit and rush forward, and obey the command." Jia Rong said with a straight face.
The generals agreed with a roar.
"The commanders of each army gathered their troops and waited for orders." Jia Rong said: "The first army marching strategist Guo Jia, the second marching strategist Xu Shu, the third marching strategist Jia Xu."
The three of them accepted the promise. The situation in the grassland has stabilized, and Xu Shu no longer needs to guard the grassland. The battle to merge the state is not a trivial matter. The trade to the grassland is easier from Bingzhou. What's more, the Xiliang army once
In Bingzhou, considerable material resources were invested in building a cement road. When the scale was just completed, the state affairs were stolen by General Li Ru. Jia Rong was already furious, but the situation of the Xiliang army at that time did not allow for a campaign, so he gave up.
After two years of recuperation, the Xiliang army was able to withstand successive battles. With the consumption of 50,000 soldiers in one year, there was no need to worry about Bingzhou being unable to be pacified. No matter how high the price was, Jia Rong would not hesitate. The Xiliang army ruled Bingzhou.
Although the time was short, the people's aspirations were definitely not comparable to Li Ruqi's. Jia Rong was still very confident in this battle.
