The Peerless God-level System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 133 Prepare to march
Good days are beautiful and happy, but the sky doesn't follow people's wishes.

While everyone was still indulging in the joy of the wedding, Yuan Yao suddenly summoned Du Ruhui and Li Ji, because the soldiers stationed at the border sent an urgent report, an urgent report about the South China Sea: The Ministry attacked the people who were reclaiming wasteland and took away a large number of cattle.

In this era, cattle farming is the key to agriculture. Cattle farming has always been the most typical form of agriculture in ancient China.

It was recorded that Dong Zhuo once slaughtered cattle to entertain his guests. This guest thanked Dong Zhuo for his kindness and brought back thousands of miscellaneous animals to thank him after returning. This shows the importance of cattle in the Han Dynasty.

The value of one ox is sometimes greater than ten horses.

This time, Qu Jing heard a report from his subordinates that there were more than a hundred cattle in the reclamation crowd, which aroused his greed. He pretended to be a thief and ransacked a group of reclamation cattle on the border, and took away 110 cattle in total. Cattle.

Yuan Yao had long wanted to attack Qu Jing and seize Nanhai, an important town in Jiaozhou. Now that Qu Jing took the initiative to provoke him, how could he let go of this great opportunity? Moreover, at this time, his finances are also sufficient, which can fully support him in a big battle field.

A smile appeared naturally on Liu Shang's face, and he said: "The spies came to report just now, and the South China Sea area suddenly sent troops to attack my people in the land reclamation, so I hurriedly ordered the two of you to discuss countermeasures together."

"South China Sea area view?"

Qu Jing, who occupies the land of the South China Sea, has some elite soldiers under his command, and colludes with the Yue people, acting as a dominator, even the imperial governor dares to kill and rob the people of the land reclamation, it is reasonable .

Du Ruhui nodded, and said: "Since Qu Jing dares to rob my people openly, my lord should send out righteous soldiers to attack."

Yuan Yao turned around and asked Li Ji, "Military division, when is the best time to dispatch?"

Li Ji said with a smile: "Soldiers are precious and fast. Qu Jing took the initiative to provoke this time, which is extremely abnormal. I'm afraid it's not as simple as coveting cattle. There must be someone instigating it. My lord should raise troops immediately. If things are delayed, Qu Jing is prepared. It's not right."

Du Ruhui also said: "The South China Sea is a remote place. Although there are many Han people, there are also many barbarians. These people do not obey the king's law, and respect their strength. Since the area is in trouble, if the lord does not give a thunderbolt, I'm afraid People in Yue thought we were timid and had a different heart."

He also said: "Below the scene of the district, the crime of slaughtering the court's assassin should be punished. It is only because of the remoteness of the South China Sea and the many affairs of the court that he is allowed to go unpunished. Today, the lord is looking for a thief, and he must go to the emperor to explain the reason."

Yuan Yao nodded, deeply convinced that even though the imperial court is controlled by Cao Cao, the status is still there after all, the area is easy to deal with, but it is rare to be Shi Xie, this person is well-known, and he is very popular in Jiaozhou Hanyue, South China Sea , is also his territory in name, if he sends troops rashly, there is no guarantee that Shi Xie will not send troops to rescue, if there is an edict from the emperor, it can just stop Shi Xie's mouth and make him sit on the sidelines.

Immediately, Yuan Yao asked Du Ruhui to write the form, signed his name and affixed the seal, then sent envoys to rush all the way to Xuchang City to submit the form.

After receiving Yuan Yao's letter, the subordinates of the prime minister's mansion did not dare to be negligent. Cao Cao had ordered the documents of the princes from all walks of life to be presented to him as soon as possible.

Therefore, after receiving Yuan Yao's letter, even though he knew that Cao Cao was having a banquet, the little official also galloped out, found a fast horse, and rushed straight to Cao Cao's private house, where the guards stopped him at the gate. .

In the inner courtyard, there was a sound of singing and dancing. Cao Cao’s close friends, civil servants and generals gathered together. The civil servants Xiang, Xun Yu, Xun You, Guo Jia, etc., were all resourceful men. On the side of the generals, Xia Houchun, Xia Houyuan, Cao Ren, Le Jin Everyone can be called a good fighter.But in front of Cao Cao, these people held their breaths and concentrated, they all quietly looked at Cao Cao who was sitting on the main seat and writing vigorously. disturb.

As a result, the footsteps of the guards coming hurriedly seemed particularly abrupt.

When Cao Cao was inspired, he frowned when he heard footsteps outside. He raised the pen and never dropped it, but he winked at Xu Zhu beside him.

Xu Zhuhu stared, strode out, and came in with the guard after a while.The guard knelt down on the ground with a plop from far away, and said loudly: "I want to report to the prime minister, the little official outside the door came to report, and Yuan Yao came to make a statement."

Jingnan Yuan Yao and Cao Cao were also quite surprised, and hurriedly asked to bring the little officials up.

The little official saluted, presented the form, and then hurriedly retreated in the corner, not daring to speak.

Cao Cao unfolded the form, read it carefully, then put away the form expressionlessly, and pushed everyone away, leaving Xun Yu, Xun You, Guo Jia, and Cheng Yu alone in the study, and handed the form to Guo Jia, said in a deep voice: "Yuan Yao submitted a request to crusade against the South China Sea, what do you think?"

Guo Jia glanced at it and said with a smile: "Since Yuan Yao wants to fight, why doesn't my lord agree?"

Cao Cao frowned and murmured, "Yuan Yao's ambitions are getting bigger and bigger. Now that he is trapped in Jingnan, he can find a way to restrain him. If he gets the South China Sea and captures Jiaozhou, he will help his wings."

Cheng Yu sighed: "Nowadays the Han Dynasty is in decline, the prefects everywhere, and the governors have already gone their own way, ignoring the imperial court's order, Yuan Yao's submission is just a formality, if the lord opposes, it will not be able to stop Yuan Yao from sending troops. Why don't the lord agree with the trend and make a deal?" good luck."

Cao Cao nodded, but he was a little unwilling.

Driven by the flames of war, on the day he received the imperial edict, Yuan Yao set off for Jiuyi Mountain with Qin Qiong, Gao Chong, Gan Ning and other generals, as well as 6000 people from the First Army and the Second Army.

At the same time, Yu Chigong's vanguard battalion has already acted as a vanguard, opening up roads in the mountains, building bridges in the water, and fighting all the way to the South China Sea. A war is imminent.

At the same time, Jingzhou also received news that Wenpin, as a general, saw Yuan Yao's troops transferred to Jiuyi Mountain, and hoped to take back the three counties in Jingnan and wash away the shame of Jingzhou's generals. Doubtful Mountain, Lingling County is definitely empty, you can send troops to attack Changsha, and I will lead the army to attack Lingling County, such a two-sided attack, or the three counties in Jingnan can be recaptured."

Cai Hao pricked up his ears, thinking that Wenpin would come up with some good suggestions, but when he heard that he was attacking Yuan Yao again, he couldn't help but feel bored, and said lightly: "A few days ago, the plan of drawing salary from the bottom of the pot failed. Since he dared to mobilize troops Entering Jiuyi Mountain, how can you not be on guard against our attack?"

The matter was over, and Cai Mao was terrified of Yuan Yao.

At this time, Yuan Yao was ordering the army to rush forward at full speed, heading towards Jiuyi Mountain.

Pang Tong had already made preparations in advance at Jiuyi Mountain.
