58. The so-called luck is that there will be a free warm-up before the war
"I said Fengxian, it's not like you to give up so easily?"
Since we knew that we were likely to face a strong enemy, the entire Lishi City naturally had to make more preparations for this. However, what surprised Li Shushi was that Lu Bu took the initiative to find him and said that he was not good at organizing city defense. He hoped that Li Shushi would respond accordingly.
Gao Shun and Cheng Lian were given the job. After all, Gao Shun's family had been serving in the army in Yanmen for generations. Gao Shun himself served on the front line in Yanmen's defense against aliens in his early years, and his relevant experience was far richer than his own. Even Cheng Lian's early years
He was also an officer and soldier who fought against alien races.
"It's true that I'm not willing to give in, but it's important for people to be self-aware. If you ask me to charge into battle and fight decisively between the two armies, then I, Lu Bu, will do my part. But you ask me to be on guard and watch the enemy outside, but I can only huddle in.
If you let them attack and scold you in the city, I guess I will do nothing but cause trouble for the general. Who told me I have such a personality?"
Although he said he was a little unwilling, there was no sign of unwillingness at all on Lu Bu's face, because Li Shushi gave him an order that suited him well - lead the light cavalry troops to be ready to go out of the city to fight back at any time or according to the situation.
Simply go out of the city to harass the enemy's logistics. Such a job is really suitable for Lu Bu, who had been a horse thief in his early years.
"But I didn't see it when I was in Dong'a. It turns out that Cheng Zhongde is really good at defense. With him checking for Zian's mistakes and filling in the gaps, I think he can do it in Lishi City without leaks."
Due to Lu Bu's withdrawal and recommendation, Gao Shun became the commander-in-chief of this defensive battle. Of course, the nominal commander-in-chief was Li Shushi, but everyone knew that with Li Shushi's experience and ability, he was basically similar to a mascot, except that Li Shushi
This mascot can provide a lot of abilities that give the place a lot of headaches, and it can also provide a powerful doctor, Su Xiaololi.
As for Gao Shun's lieutenant general, the second command authority on the battlefield was given to Cheng Yu to prevent Gao Shun's death and the whole army from chaos. Although many generals in the formation were not very familiar with Cheng Yu, for Li Shushi, regardless of
Did he learn about Cheng Yu's excellent defense in Dong'a from Bu Ji, or did he learn about it from his previous life?
It is known in the history books that his outstanding performance against powerful enemies such as Lu Bu and Yuan Shao made people very reassured. More importantly, this uncle had a tough temper. According to the history books, there was a case where he kicked a Yellow Turban soldier to death.
Records can definitely hold the scene and not allow the army to collapse easily after the fall of the supreme commander.
With the help of these two generals, plus the assistance of Lu Zhi, Wei Yue, Qu Yi and Zhang He who had experience in defending the city during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Li Shushi once again successfully became a hands-off shopkeeper and involved many people.
Bronze official seal required for military and civilian mobilization.
Of course, the official seal is not a seal, let alone a radish stamp carved from a big radish, so Li Shushi is still of some use. "My lord, Mr. Jia hopes that you can rush back to the prefect's mansion as soon as possible and report to you any important military information."
Just when Li Shushi and Lu Bu climbed up the city wall of Lishi City and looked at the snow-covered scene in the distance, a very, very unpleasant voice came over, and Li Shushi, who was searching for suitable verses to plagiarize, lost all inspiration for a moment.
"Forget it, since it's Wen He, there must be important news, otherwise he can solve it himself."
Although Li Shushi was very depressed by being disturbed in his poetry, he also knew Jia Xu's character very well. If it was not a big deal, Jia Xu would at most mention a few words to him or explain it in detail in the briefing to him, and he could make Jia Xu's character very clear.
The news that Jia Xu was so eager to let himself know must be something he considered very important.
Although Li Shushi himself is always lazy and slippery, he does not dare to be confused when it comes to major issues.
"Fengxian, go find Zian and Zhongde and come with them. You also know Wenhe's temperament. I'm afraid something big has happened."
After calling Lu Bu to look for Gao Shun and Cheng Yu, Li Shushi hurried back to his mansion. In the mansion, he not only saw Jia Xu, who had been waiting for a long time, but also Lu Zhi, Tong Yuan and Yan Zhong.
This group of old foxes always like to hide their existence just like Jia Xu. From this, Li Shushi is even more sure that what Jia Xu wants to say is quite important.
"In a moment, Zhongde and Zian will be here. Let's wait for a while."
But when Li Shushi said this, three people had already arrived at the meeting hall of the prefect's mansion.
"Okay, let's not talk nonsense. This time, I mainly have two pieces of news to inform you. One is the news provided to me by my old friend, and the other is the information Wen He just obtained. My information is relatively simple.
, according to the information provided by some familiar businessmen, some leaders of the Xianbei people have gone to the royal court of Danhan Mountain in Xianbei. The climate on the grassland this year is even worse than here, and there have been several heavy snowfalls in many places, so it means that
We will definitely be under a lot of pressure this year.”
As soon as everyone sat down, Tong Yuan could not wait to tell everyone the news he had received.
"Why does Tong Gong assert like this? Don't we still have troops from Yanmen, Shuofang and Wuyuan in the north? Although General Du Liao has been idle for many years, the soldiers under his command are still a group of veterans with considerable combat effectiveness."
Among the people, Gao Shun, who knew the most about the military situation in the north of Bingzhou, frowned and asked.
"Let me explain this." Lu Zhi took over the conversation at this time, "Friends in the DPRK gave me some news. It is said that in order to reduce border expenses, His Majesty sent soldiers originally under the command of Generals Jilucai and Duliao
Some were transferred to Yanmen and returned to Xianbei
General Zhonglang restrained the troops, and another part was sent to the north to prepare to attack the Qiang rebels from the flanks. In other words, the entire force in the northwest of Bingzhou has been basically exhausted. The only ones who can guarantee the Sili are us and the Xiongnu General Zhonglang.
Tens of thousands of troops under his command."
After hearing Lu Zhi's explanation, everyone present fell into silence.
After everyone came to Xihe, they had some understanding of the habits of the grassland people outside the Great Wall, especially the behemoths like Xianbei. Combined with the current situation of the Han Dynasty, it is conceivable that facing the huge temptation of directly invading the core area of Sili of the Han Dynasty, I am afraid that this winter
It is difficult for the Xianbei people to give up after suffering heavy losses. Not to mention that Xianbei suffered as big a loss as Zhang Jue, Gongsun Zan and others in the northeast. The situation in the northwest is so complicated, and the situation here seems to be so weak.
"Forget it, Xianbei is so huge that it won't be able to start gathering until the spring of next year anyway. We still have time to deal with it. Wenhe, it's your turn. If you have any bad news, just tell me. The debts are too heavy to bear."
Seeing that everyone was deep in thought, Li Shushi had no choice but to speak out to wake everyone up. In fact, he was the one in charge who had the least worries here. After all, Lu Bu, Gao Shun, and Tong Yuan were all people with extraordinary martial arts skills. Jia Xu and Cheng Yu
Too
Lu Zhi is a man of profound resourcefulness, and he is even more versatile in both civil and military affairs. If these people can't come up with any good ideas, then it is impossible for him, an ordinary person, to come up with any amazing ideas, so at this time, his mentality is more normal.
Some.
"Compared to the news just now, maybe this news from Xu is a good thing."
Jia Xu, who was originally thinking hard about how to deal with it, felt relieved for no reason when he saw Li Shushi's ordinary-looking face, but extremely calm at this time, so his tone became much more relaxed when he spoke.
"Oh~ It's actually good news. Let's talk about it. Sure enough, after being baptized by bad news, you will feel that good news is so precious, so it is the right way to say that it is bitter first and then sweet~"
Seeing Li Shushi's exaggerated expression, everyone felt relaxed in their hearts. The somewhat depressing atmosphere just now disappeared unconsciously. The corners of Jia Xu's mouth, which was about to report, even curved into a rather strange smile.
radian.
"It is indeed good news." Looking at Li Shushi's expectant eyes, Jia Xu's mouth curved even higher, "According to the news from our ally Shi Le Clan Chief, the Jie people's chief Shi Kele has summoned all the Jie people's tribes to discuss
Regarding our attack, it seems that we want to take revenge on the thousands of people who were defeated by us a while ago, or because of that defeat, they had to come to us in order to prevent other tribes from thinking that they were weak and easy to bully.
Come and establish your authority.”
"Is this good news?!"
Hearing Jia Xu's words, Li Shushi almost fell down on the table, but looked at Jia Xu's serious look, as if he had indeed told Li Shushi some pretty good news.
"If it weren't for the previous bad news, Wenhe's news wouldn't really be good. But with the previous news as a foreshadowing, then this is really good news."
Looking at Li Shushi's confused look, and Lu Bu and Gao Shun, two guys who were also confused, Tong Yuan felt that his educational mission was indeed long and arduous, so he couldn't help but remind him.
However, Tong Yuan's thoughts not only made Gao Shun fall into deep thought, but also for the other two, one was in his early thirties and the other was only one-third stronger than ⑨. He had a basic understanding of such profound things.
No way.
As a result, Tong Yuan retreated magnificently in front of the two fools, leaving only a pile of gray-white things in front of him. One had a silly smile on his face, while the other tried his best to pretend to be cool and gradually faded away.
"Okay, let me explain it."
Seeing Tong Yuan next to him who looked like he had suffered a huge blow and was unable to recover, Lu Zhi smiled gracefully and spoke.
"Although the Jie people are good in strength, they are limited after all. They are far behind the Xianbei people. What we lack most now is actually experience, especially the experience of defending the city. After all, we have too many new people here and basically the veterans
There are not many. So wouldn’t it be a good thing to have a weak opponent like the Jie people to train our troops? Or with General Lu’s strength, those Jie people will still make you afraid. If
If that’s the case, just pretend I didn’t say anything.”
Lu Zhi was indeed very powerful. Not only did he explain clearly in a few words, but he also threw a provocative technique at Lu Bu. Looking at the way Lu Bu continued to pretend to be cool, he knew that Lu Bu's IQ had been reduced to ⑨ by the provoking technique.
"What's more, there is an internal agent among the Jie people. As long as our disadvantage is not that big, then they will definitely be able to provide us with enough intelligence. After all, it is a good deal to use our hands to weaken his enemy.
matter."
Lu Zhi continued to explain to the two, or Gao Shun, but Li Shushi was not sure whether this additional explanation could be realized. After all, the relationship between Xihe and the other party was just mutual contact, whether in terms of feelings or interests.
The relationship between us has only just begun, so we are not sure what actions the other party will take against us in this situation.
Of course, at least after Lu Zhi's explanation and through Lu Bu and Gao Shun's words, Li Shushi believed that there was absolutely no need to worry about the morale of his troops.
After resting for so long, it seems like it’s time to stretch out my muscles.
p.s. I don’t know why, I feel so tired and have no motivation...
p.s. I’m still writing even though my grades are so bad. We don’t know whether we should be persistent enough or thick-skinned enough. I feel so confused...
