Chapter 230 Jia Xu's Arrangement

Chapter 230 Jia Xu's Arrangement

"What I'm saying is, I have to take good care of myself and not make him worry."

"Okay, sister, which time did the husband go out and didn't come back, you should go back quickly and be careful of your body."

Diao Chan pulled Ye Zitian, who was talking endlessly, and persuaded softly.

Once again, Ye Zitian looked at the place where Ye Xiao walked, and left reluctantly.

September is destined to be a year of unrest, as autumn harvests and wars start in September.

After receiving Yuan Shao's letter, Yuan Shu decided to help his eldest brother, Beizheng Ye Xiao.

Along with him was Jingzhou Mu Liu Qi.

Strange to say, Yuan Shu and Liu Qi can be regarded as sworn enemies.

Yangzhou is close to Jingzhou, and Yuan Shu took advantage of Yuan Shao's power to rob some wealthy areas in Jingzhou many times.

Ye Xiaolai was already in Chen Ping when he got the news, and he was already prepared for Yuan Shu's dispatch.

Ye Xiao never expected that Yuan Shao's hand could reach out to Jingzhou to help Liu Qi seize the position of Jingzhou Mu.

But just the status of a state shepherd is worthy of enemies like Liu Qi and Yuan Shu regardless of previous suspicions?

Ye Xiao learned from Jinyiwei's information that Yuan Shao promised to hand over all the Wancheng area to Liu Qi after the matter is completed.

Therefore, it can also be seen that there has never been any relationship between the princes.

Interests come first.

There is Chen Gong in Xuzhou and Jia Xu in Yuzhou. The two sit in town and have enough soldiers and horses to deal with Yuan Shu and Liu Qi.

"What did the Lord say?"

A few days later, Jin Yiwei sent the letter to Yuzhou.

First, Jia Xu let out a long breath, then looked at the questioner and said
"Gongtai, come and see for yourself."

The two people talking in the room were Jia Xu and Chen Gong who was defending Xuzhou.

"is it?"

Chen Gong frowned slightly, it took a long time to put down the letter, and lowered his head.

He tapped on the table with his fingers, but the thoughts in his mind were spinning rapidly.

"I wanted to come to you to borrow some soldiers and horses to defend Xiapi."

"Looking at it now, neither of us has the upper hand. Damn Liu Qi, my lord should have killed Liu Biao when Wancheng was attacking!"

The ferocious knocking stopped abruptly, and Chen Gong raised his head slightly, and said in a hateful voice with anger on his face.

"Now Yuan Shao raised 20 troops and devoted all his strength to fighting the Lord. I guess it was because Yuan Shao was going to attack Gongsun Zan first, destroy Gongsun Zan, and then turn around and attack the Lord."

Jia Xu was not stupid, so she naturally guessed that Yuan Shuruo just wanted to save Yuan Shao, so naturally she would not be so desperate, and soon thought of the reason.

After hearing this, Chen Gong felt a little helpless, who made him a brother or a prince?

Except for the two, I am afraid that there will be no other princes who can help each other like this, so they sighed.

"Liu Qi also has a lot of troops. Liu Biao accumulated a lot of wealth when he was alive. In addition, in order to prevent Liu Cong, Cai Mao and others, he expanded his army by [-], and there are nearly [-] troops."

Jia Xu also said with a smile.

"We have almost [-] soldiers and horses in our hands. These people add up to the number of people in a county."

"Yuan Shu's army is mostly recruited by force, not elite, and cannot be compared with our army."

"However, even so, Yuan Shu still has a lot of troops at his disposal. Once the troops approach the city, I'm afraid it will not be so easy to defend them. I'll go back and think of a way."

Soldiers cannot be borrowed, so they can only rely on the existing troops in their hands to resist. Chen Gong did not want to sit longer, so he bid farewell to Jia Xu.

He didn't stop Jia Xu either, and reminded him.

"There are too few troops stationed in Xu County. Xu County is the only way to enter Xuzhou. If Yuan Shushou sends people directly to Xu County, I am afraid Xuzhou will lose."

"Besides, in Yingchuan City, Dong Chengzhi and others are not convinced by the lord. I'm afraid they will cause civil strife."

Chen Gong was very convinced by Jia Xu's reminder.

"What the public platform said is true."

After Chen Gong left, Jia Xu quickly ordered the generals in the city to go to the prefect's mansion.

Chen Gong's words before his departure reminded Jia Xu that since it is difficult to defend the city, why not take the initiative to attack?

Several people in the county magistrate's mansion gathered together after a while and sat down one by one.

"Be careful, my lord. Liu Qi is about to send troops to attack my border. Of course it is good to defend the city, but now that the harvest in Yuzhou City is approaching, if you stick to it, you may lose a lot of food. After a bloody battle, even if Liu Qi is repelled, it will not be worth the loss. .”

"The battle in the north is about to begin. My lord has no time to worry about him. Now I have ordered you to wait for us to cooperate with me to ensure that the city of Yuzhou is not lost."

Some military commanders couldn't help being elated when they heard this. They were born for fighting, and the blood flowing in their blood is fighting blood.

Besides, if you don't have military exploits, how can you be promoted?

"I want to command [-] troops and go out of the city to fight Liu Qi. There must be a general in the city to guard the city. Who will come?"

It's quiet, it's quiet, there are several people in the room looking at you, I'm looking at you, no one answered.

Unlike some literati, generals prefer to fight on the battlefield.

In their view, even if the strength of the enemy and the enemy are very different, they prefer to fight to the death in war. Who would like to defend the city?
Chen Gong was not angry when he saw this situation, he just laughed.

"Then I'll start pointing."

There was a hint of complacency in Chen Gong's eyes, he knew that some generals would not stay here to defend the city obediently, so he played a trick.

"Wang Cheng, you have always been prudent and stayed in Yuzhou City. Yuzhou City is the foundation of our army and the most important place in our army. If this war can be won, you will have to contribute."

The art of war is like a mountain, the art of war is like a mountain, and the art of war is like a mountain, so there is no longer any room for people to argue, Wang Fang can only sigh inwardly for his misfortune.

"Wu Anguo, I want you to ride [-] horses to be the vanguard. It is reasonable to say that the weak can defeat the strong. You should be resourceful and think twice about everything."

"Relax, I know"

Wu Anguo accepted the order gladly, patted his chest excitedly, and opened his mouth to promise.

Chen Gong nodded, smiled, turned his head and said to the rest of the people.

"Zhao Xun stayed in the city to transport food, let me go out of the city to meet Liu Qi for a while, to see how confident he is, and dare to send people to the border of Yuzhou."

The rumble of armor in the city came out.

A group of soldiers walked to the distance, it was none other than the soldiers led by Wu Anguo.

The 500 people are all cavalry. In this era of cold weapons, war horses are important military supplies.

In many cases, cavalry is often the key to a battle, it is not only difficult to obtain, but also consumes a lot

Among the various princes in the world, only Gongsun Zan, Ma Teng and Ye Xiao were equipped with a large number of war horses, especially Ma Teng and Ye Xiao.

Ma Teng owns all of Liangzhou and part of Yongzhou. These two places have always been places where war horses gather, and cavalry are the main conquests.

Later, the wealth that Ye Xiao looted from the great families was used to buy horses and build cavalry.

The cavalry that Ye Xiao built with the wealth of the big families in the three counties was only a hundred thousand cavalry, which shows how scarce war horses are.

"General, why did the military division only send 500 people?"
