"Brother Bogui's letter asking for help? Didn't I send reinforcements there a long time ago?"

Qingzhou, Plain Country.

Chen Mu was writing a secret letter on his desk when Liu Bei suddenly broke in and asked him anxiously when he would send reinforcements to help Gongsun Zan.

Hearing his answer, Liu Bei was surprised and said: "Why didn't I know what happened when?"

Chen Mu stood up, pushed the impatient elder brother down on the table, and said with a smile: "Brother, have you forgotten that I have already written to Luoyang, asking the emperor to ask the Hu tribes in Youzhou to immediately go to support Brother Bogui?

?”

"Rely on those barbarians?"

Liu Bei was a little angry, pointed to the north and asked: "Fourth brother is so confused, are you really pointing to those barbarians who can help you?"

"The Hu people are still reliable in this regard, not to mention the imperial edict issued by the emperor today?"

Chen Mu sat back in his seat and rubbed his ink with a smile.

Liu Bei couldn't sit still and stood up again and said: "My fourth brother, if the Hu people can be trusted, they will not rebel against the court many times and bring trouble to the border areas. I have to remind you that the Hu people have always been cunning and changeable. Who knows what they are doing?"

Will he take advantage of the emperor and get benefits, but be unwilling to serve?"

"The Hu people are unreliable. Who can I rely on? Gongsun Du?"

"Even more unreliable."

"A man who became king in Liaodong?"

"To be king is to be rebellious! Who can be a serious person to be king?"

"Brother, do you dare to claim the throne?"

"No."

"Are you afraid or unwilling?"

"It is impossible."

"Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu don't dare to do it now."

"Although Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu are rebellious, he is even more hateful than this person. In the alliance of the great ancestor Baima, no one but Liu can be king, but this generation actually established himself as the king of Liaodong in Liaodong!"

"Since the Hu people are unreliable and Gongsun Du is unreliable, who can I rely on to save Brother Bogui?"

Chen Mu shrugged: "Are we going to kill them through the Bohai Sea? Yuan Shao is not a fool, how could he let us pass?"

There is only this little power near Youzhou now.

To the north are the central Xianbei and eastern Xianbei of the Inner Mongolia grassland.

Then there are the various Wuhuan tribes living near Yanshan and Gongsundu who became the king of Liaodong.

Gongsun Du claimed to be the King of Liaodong as early as the first year of Chuping, and he had already become lawless.

Yuan Shao was close to the water tower and could send troops directly.

However, Qingzhou could not send troops there unless it started a direct war with Yuan Shao on the Bohai Sea.

But now is the beginning of a full-scale war, and the military strength must be concentrated. Once you choose to rescue Gongsun Zan from the Bohai Sea, it will be bad.

Therefore, Qingzhou cannot move at this time.

After all, Yuan Shao himself had placed his main army in the south and only sent a small number of troops to the north. As soon as Qingzhou moved, he lost the opportunity and was defeated by others.

Liu Bei was silent for a long time and asked tentatively: "Why can't we use ships to transport troops to Youzhou?"

Chen Mu smiled and said: "Brother has been on a ship before, and the soldiers of the ship guard have to train for many years before they can stand up. The people from the north are not good at taking ships. Tens of thousands of troops were transported there, and they walked and vomited all the way.

How many people are still capable of fighting when we get to Youzhou?"

Liu Bei was silent for a long time. After a long time, he said softly: "Fourth brother, do you think those barbarians will really obey the emperor's call and go to rescue Bogui?"

Chen Mu pointed at his head and said: "Brother, don't form fixed thoughts in your mind. What happened in Qiu Liju back then was certainly due to the cunning and changeable Hu people, but the court also has the responsibility to look at the problem dialectically. What's more, the emperor this time

The people who were recruited were not the original tribe of Qiu Liju, but other small tribes of Wuhuan, so they are not the same."

"Perhaps the court was indeed at fault for what happened to Qiu Liju back then. But...well, forget it, we can only rely on the Hu people this time."

Liu Bei sighed, thought for a long time, shook his head, and turned around helplessly to go out.

He actually wanted to take care of this matter.

First, it’s loyalty.

Secondly, it’s face.

Historically, when Gongsun Zan died, he had no ability at all, because he was being controlled by Cao Cao in Xudu at that time. Due to the issue of clothes and edicts, he was having a drink with Cao Cao Qingmei and discussing heroes, and then he was waiting for an opportunity to escape.

At that time, the Clay Bodhisattva could not save himself when crossing the river, and he was far away. The news of Gongsun Zan's death was probably heard a few years later.

And now?

Not only does he have the ability, but he also has the strength to match. He can completely intervene in Youzhou's affairs and protect Gongsun Zan's base.

As we all know, Liu Bei was a ranger from the Yan region.

Walking in the world, righteousness comes first.

In this regard, he and Gongsun Zan are very close to each other, and both of them are loyal.

That's why he was afraid, fearing that if Chen Mu's strategy failed, even if Liu Yu issued an edict, the Hu people would still not do anything, resulting in Gongsun Zan's defeat, and Gongsun Zan would blame him and even resent him.

He will be embarrassed by then.

However, there is no other way now. Everyone in Qingzhou is preparing to go out, and their troops are also concentrated in large numbers, preparing to start the war with Jizhou.

Now we are sending people over. We need to go through Yuan Shao's territory in the Bohai Sea by land. We can go by sea. It is exactly as Chen Mu said. Tens of thousands of people will pass by and the journey will be bumpy. After arriving, it will be a question of how many people will be able to fight.

Therefore, he could only comfort himself in his heart, hoping that Chen Mu's strategy would work, and that Liu Yu's golden signboard would still work in Youzhou.

But watching Big Brother leave worriedly, Chen Mu smiled without caring at all.

Diodes are not recommended.

Liu Bei was born on the border of Youzhou and had seen the capriciousness of the Hu people, so he questioned whether Chen Mu's strategy would work.

But as a time traveler, Chen Mu is also familiar with history.

He clearly knew how much power Liu Yu had in Youzhou, and how much trouble he could cause in Youzhou with just one order.

Historically, Gongsun Zan killed Liu Yu, and Xian Yufu just raised his arms and avenged Liu Yu. In an instant, more than 100,000 troops rose up and cooperated with Yuan Shao to completely defeat Gongsun Zan.

If this doesn't prove Liu Yu's prestige, what else can prove it?

What's more, Liu Yu in history was still a dead man.

The dead will not bring any benefit to the living, and avenging the dead will not bring any honor.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! But even so, there are still so many barbarians who are willing to follow Xian Yufu to participate in the war. If they want to avenge Liu Yu, you can know how high his prestige is.

But now Liu Yu is not only still alive, but has also become the nominal leader of the Han Dynasty. No matter those who support him or those who want to gain some benefits from him, they will not let this opportunity pass by.

Therefore, Chen Mu even boldly guessed that the number of Hu people who responded to Liu Yu's call this time was definitely much greater than in history.

As long as Liu Yu agrees to take action, with his prestige in Youzhou, Chen Mu is too lazy to worry about whether Gongsun Zan will be defeated by Yuan Shao. Instead of thinking about an absolute thing, he might as well think about his relationship with Jizhou.

Tactics for starting a war.

"Ada!"

After pondering for a long time in the small hall, he finished writing the secret letter and put it in an envelope. Chen Mu called the guard Ada.

A Da came in and said, "Four Generals, what's the matter?"

"Send it to Cao Shi and ask Hou Lingshi to send these letters to Jizhou."

"OK."

Ah Da saw more than one letter on the table. Although he was a little curious, he still didn't ask too much.

But before he could be sent to the room, Hou Xu hurried over.

Yes, Ah Da doesn’t need to go either.

Chen Mu smiled and said: "Mr. Bo Zhu, I was about to ask Ada to deliver something to you."

Hou Xu cupped his hands and said nothing.

Ah Da wisely put down the letter and left.

After he left, Hou Xucai said with a gloomy face: "Si Ming, something happened."

"What's up?"

Chen Mu saw that there was something wrong with his expression, and thought about whether there were any loopholes in the plans he had recently laid out all over the world.

If you think about it carefully, there should be no such thing.

Zhang Yan's side is waiting for their instructions to act, and Xun He's side should not be exposed.

The north and south sides are all just dark chess pieces, and there is no movement at all.

So where does the problem lie?
