Chapter 591 How do you want to fight

It's not the channel of Zhou's Inn. Zhou's Inn has gradually withdrawn from the intelligence system of the Shadow Guard. After all, an intelligence department that is on the surface is meaningless.Shadow guards have become more and more formalized and can act independently.

Since last year, a large number of so-called Kunlun slaves have appeared in Guanzhong. Their skin is darker than that of the Chinese people, and they speak an incomprehensible language, which is obviously not the Chinese language system.This group of Kunlun slaves came from the Western Regions. I don't know exactly where they are. I only know that most of them are more obedient, and most of them can work hard if they have a bite to eat.

Both mining and agriculture used these Kunlun slaves in large quantities, which eased the relatively tense population in Guanzhong.Kunlun slave women also appeared in various kilns, so that the men in Guanzhong also had a taste of exotic customs, although it was just the same thing.

Even a few were sold to Da Chu, but the price was slightly expensive, and those poisonous women were not beautiful, so the sales were not satisfactory, and they seemed to be secretly executed by slave traders in the end.

Compared with these poisoned slaves, both the Qiang people who are famous for their beauties and the Hu people who know how to speak Chinese are more valuable.They all know how to herd herds, and they are experts in breeding. Li Ming bought a large number of them and transported them to Yazhou and Yizhou to be used as herd slaves and miners.

After the population problem was alleviated, Dahan's economy began to recover after a year of development.In addition, the trophies from Shendu came back one after another, and Cao Cao brought Mianmian back.

The cotton planting on Li Ming's side expanded rapidly like an explosion. Unless the big man didn't send spies, how could he not know about the cotton crop?Seeing that more and more soldiers are wearing cotton armor in winter, the big man naturally knows the importance of this crop, but Li Ming's control over the cotton fields is too strong, it is difficult for them to get cotton seeds, Cao Cao can get cotton It was a surprise.

The people below reported this matter, but Li Ming didn't care.After all, there is no way to keep it secret, but the key is to protect the cottonseed in the existing cotton fields from leaking out. After all, this is not a thing with thick fibers like Indian cotton. place to get.

"Self-confidence started to swell?" Not to mention Wang Yu, Li Ming also received the news that cotton planting had successfully started last year, and Liu Ting's actions were not lacking. After the first batch of cotton was produced, he was in a hurry.

After all, without the machines for removing cottonseed and spinning yarn, it would be difficult for Liu Ting to do it.In the end, it seems that a young man named 'Ma Jun' developed it by himself, which solved the urgent need.

With cotton, the first batch produced is naturally cotton armor, and then directly shipped to the soldiers in northern Xinjiang and Jizhou.Obviously this is to prepare for the battle for hegemony in Hebei.Grain was continuously mobilized from Yizhou and Jizhou, and then secretly transported. No one knew where they were transported. The leader of the shadow guard could only guess from some transport routes that the transport target should be somewhere in the Taihang Mountains. I don't know exactly.

"How likely is it that the east will attack the west?" Li Ming looked at Guo Jia and Jia Xu. The shadow guard's report mainly came from the transport vehicles on the big man's side, but no one knew what was inside these vehicles.

"Actually, Your Majesty doesn't need to be so nervous..." Guo Jia stepped forward, "The big man's offensive route is nothing more than five routes: Shangyong, Nanyang, Nanzhong, Hulao, and Jizhou. There are so many miasmas that it is difficult for even the locals to walk around, let alone the army of the big Han. Shangyong and Nanyang are also difficult to walk. After all, we have mountain troops stationed there, and there is Lu Bu in the tiger prison. The only one on the other side The choice is to start a war with us in Jizhou, and at most involve Youzhou."

"Today's problem is relative to where to fight..." Jia Xu also stepped forward, "It's better to worry about when the opponent will fight. Whether it's summer or winter, the battle damage will double. It's not an ideal time to fight. The same. , Wars in summer and winter will have unexpected effects, and the imperial court has tasted the sweetness, so they may not wage wars in winter, and they also have cotton."

Indeed, rather than caring about where the opponent will start the war, it is better to pay attention to what season the opponent will start the war.People who practice qi have a strong yang fire, and with the addition of cotton clothes and furs, they may really be able to fight in winter.There is no need for a large army, with [-] qi practitioners, even a qi practitioner who cultivates rubbish like "Dou Zhan Jue" can become a leading soldier in winter.

"If we really want to beat us in winter, they will be the ones who will suffer! Do you think it would be good to have cotton? The cotton is different, and the cotton cloth made of their thick fiber cotton is not very effective in keeping warm, or they can only be added. Thick, the result will be very cumbersome and affect the activities." Li Ming waved his hand, and he was really not afraid that the other party would launch a war in winter.

I am not afraid of summer, if the production process of artificial ice and Chuhou Xingjun powder is not leaked for a day, then I am not afraid.It was only in July and August that the attack was launched, and the opponent was directly heated to death, especially those soldiers who had been wearing helmets for a long time. If they took off their helmets one day, a large piece of hair might be torn off.The so-called ghost shaving the head among the people is actually the same thing.

"If you don't make an agreement with the other party, how about the specific time of the war?" Zhang Mo said weakly at the side, "The Son of Heaven is an upright teacher, agree on the time and place, and the outcome will be upright."

"Haha, the two of you really don't understand better than Zhang Mo. Also, we don't need to guess when the other party will attack, just send someone over to discuss it. Could it be that we are worried about their sudden attack, but they are not afraid Did we fight over suddenly? Fear is equal, and no one will take advantage of this!" Li Ming laughed loudly upon hearing this.

No way, Liu Ting was worried that he would call in summer or winter.

"Do you want to make second-hand preparations?" Guo Jia asked.

"Yes, definitely! Don't say it's us, the other party will do it too. Focus on where to put it, Hulao Pass or Nanyang?" Li Ming asked while looking at the map.

"Hulao Pass is more likely!" Jia Xu stepped forward and said.

"Then Hulaoguan, order Lu Bu to be careful of the enemy's surprise attack, Zhang Liao has also grown up, and privately send him a message, let him supervise Lu Bu, and don't let him be greedy." Li Ming ordered.

After more than ten days, a "Letter of Credence" naturally came to Chang'an City and fell into Liu Ting's hands.There is only one sentence in this credential: "How do you want to fight? Give me a time and place!"

Liu Ting has recently mobilized soldiers and supplies on a large scale. He really intends to wage a major war, at least to regain the area of ​​Hebei. For this reason, he even contacted Xianbei and Wuhuan, and the Southern Huns also sent elite soldiers to assist.In the predetermined plan, he set the focus of the attack as the area of ​​Youzhou.Yuan Shao, just need to hold back Li Ming.

It doesn't matter if they can't hold back, let Li Ming's army drive straight in, and they can't look around behind. When the army goes south, it will naturally make them unlucky!In the end, he lost his wife and lost his army, which means that, of course Liu Ting didn't know this allusion that didn't happen.

"This letter of credence has been circulated, and now everyone knows it, but I don't think you need to care about it. You can fight as you like. History books are the result of the winner. The final victory is the key. During the period, use some tricks. It's not an exaggeration." Shen Ye reminded from the side.

"He wants to be upright, so we'll be upright with him!" Liu Ting threw the credentials aside and smiled faintly.
