Sun Qian stood up and reported all the supplies consumed this year and the supplies in reserve. Jia Xu, Liu Ye and others who could understand began to calculate after hearing the accurate data, and then looked happy. They looked at each other and saw the excitement in each other's eyes.
"This is the situation. There is not much difference in Zichuan's original estimate. After next year's summer grain is put into the warehouse, we will have enough food for ten months without stopping!" Lu Su said calmly. They had already done everything for this day. There are too many preparations. Other princes are excited enough if they have three months of surplus food for fighting, but they have to reserve several times the surplus food.
"All-out war, starting from Bingzhou along the border and Jizhou along the border, a full-scale war!" Li You knocked on a few cases in front of him and said. Although he had not shown his strong military vision in front of Liu Bei before, he was struck by Lu Su's words. After being filled with excitement and pride, Li You couldn't help but speak.
Liu Ye was stunned for a moment, and then he understood what Li You was planning in the next moment. Then he looked at Li You with a surprised expression. He had never thought that Li You had such an amazing vision. This plan was beyond his previous thoughts. All the plans that flashed through it.
"Yuan Benchu's strength is not weaker than ours. They are both two and a half states. Yuan Benchu's Jizhou can be said to be the essence of the north. It is not only the best grain-producing land but also a horse-producing land. Similarly, the southern part of Bingzhou is the essence of the three Jins. However, because there was no strong force to suppress the Hu people in Saibei in the past, Bingzhou's population was too small and its grain production was not much. But now, if my estimate is correct, Tian Yuanhao and others should be moving the population to Bingzhou." Li You ignored Liu Ye's look and stood up. said.
In fact, when Li You saw Liu Ye's expression, he knew that his performance was a bit too much. After all, if he had not experienced some things, it would be difficult for him to think of them even if he was as smart as Liu Ye. But since he had already spoken, he did not finish the words. , on the contrary, it will attract people's attention, rather than directly giving them a deep impression.
"Youzhou, Bingzhou, and Jizhou are all horse-producing places, and Yuan Benchu himself is well-equipped with troops and food. The children of Bingzhou are not satisfied with Yuan Shao's efforts to fight against Xianbei, but as long as Yuan Shao helps them completely clear the north of the Great Wall Baili, then Yuan Shao sends troops, and the children of Bingzhou will automatically join the army!" When Li You said this, he was filled with sighs in his heart.
It can be said that Dong Zhuo at that time mainly used infantry at the beginning, and Li Ru did the same thing as Tian Feng does now. He completely overwhelmed the Qiang people in Xiliang with less than one-third of the Qiang people. This is how the Liang cavalry gathered together. When Dong Zhuo left, the men from Xiliang followed up on their own horses, and those people were the most elite flying bear army under Dong Zhuo's command!
The men in the border counties value loyalty. If Yuan Shao puts an end to their war with the Hu people and allows the people of the border counties to completely overwhelm the Hu people, then these people will buy their lives for Yuan Shao!
The truly elite cavalry in the late Han Dynasty, whether they were Xiliang Iron Cavalry, Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry, or White Horse Yi Cong, were actually all automatically attached to the wings. This kind of cavalry was incredibly loyal and brave. Natural combat effectiveness has also reached the top level.
This is also the reason why the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, despite their powerful equipment advantages, are only slightly better than the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, but their number is only one-tenth of the number of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry. A group composed of brave men under heavy reward will never be able to A brave man who transcends and follows his faith.
"At that time, we estimate that we will mainly have to deal with cavalry. It is estimated that the opponent's combat effectiveness will not be lower than that of the two existing cavalry." Li You said calmly, "From this aspect, we have a lot of strength and types of troops.
We don’t have an advantage, we are even at a disadvantage, but our team is strong enough.”
"Wen Ru, you can consider your plan, but it's not yet time for us to start a full-scale war with Yuan Shao. We will study it when that time comes. Now we'd better listen to Zijing's report." Liu Bei smiled and said, now.
This is not the time for an all-out war.
"Here." Li You calmly returned to his seat and sat down.
Li You also knew that he was a little impatient, but he understood that Yuan Shao would not drive away the Bingzhou wolf cavalry who had come over. After all, these warriors from the border counties who had come over with their own horses could definitely complete the mission with a little training.
Most of the troops in Yuan Shao's hands were destroyed, and these people came here to repay their kindness, so their loyalty is absolutely guaranteed.
"Ha, Wenru, you are still very good." Chen Xi said in a low voice.
"Horses consume too much food. Unless we have a mascot like you, we can't support more than 20,000 cavalry. What's more, once the battle begins, the food consumption will increase exponentially." Li You also said in a low voice,
It seems that the two of them just deserted under Liu Bei's nose.
"You mean we take the initiative to attack, let them fight us out, and then force us back to our border and then have a stalemate, right?" Chen Xi frowned and said, "I don't think it is necessary. I admit that if it is really a head-to-head confrontation, we will face each other.
It is unlikely that Yuan Shao will win, and Yuan Shao’s advantages in strength and types of troops are difficult to eliminate, but if we use the secret weapon, we can directly steal at least half of Jizhou."
"If we activate it at the beginning, we won't be able to severely damage the opponent. And don't you think that as our power changes, a lot of sand will be mixed inside?" Li You said with squinted eyes.
"If we take the initiative to attack and are beaten out, the whole world will probably be shocked. If Yuan Benchu shows his momentum, if nothing else, let me ask you, is Yuan Benchu the hero?" Chen Xi also has his own considerations, although Li You's method
Good, but too dangerous.
"When he was in Luoyang, he was the only hero who dared to point his sword at Dong Zhongying, and based on his current performance in the north, let's put it this way, without Xuande Gong and Cao Mengde, I think he has the greatest possibility of defeating Huanyu." Li You
He said solemnly.
"Actually, if Cao Mengde hadn't massacred Xuzhou, I would have been most optimistic about Cao Mengde, followed by Yuan Benchu. But if we were to compare who could win the world, if it weren't for Xuande Gong, I would be more optimistic about Yuan Benchu." Chen Xi nodded.
Chen Xi is now very suspicious that Yuan Shao has taken something like Tiangang Zhengqi Water. His whole character is abnormally heroic. He is powerful and courageous. He employs people with no doubts. All his subordinates, both civil and military, are impressed by him. This is simply the pinnacle.
An enhanced version of Cao Cao during the period! And the most important thing is Yuan Benchu's good cards, which is not intimidating to Liu Bei compared to his overall strength!
"Zichuan, I admit that you are indeed a genius. It's a pity that Mr. Xuande's foundation is too weak. You made Mr. Xuande go from nothing to this level, which is beyond everyone's expectations. It's a pity that you started from nothing.
, and the Jizhou that Yuan Benchu took over has a strong foundation." Li You said with a wry smile.
"I know that Ju Gong and General Jizhou have built a good job." Chen Xi nodded and said, "I will think about your tactics later."
