The First Military Division of the Three Kingdoms

"Furthermore, Cao Cao of Yanzhou, with the heart of a jackal, once the elder brother suffers heavy losses, how can he give up such a good opportunity, and he will definitely lead his army to attack Xuzhou and other places with all his strength. In this way, the people under the elder brother's rule will suffer from the flames of war."

Chen Ziming once again said that when Liu Bei came and sent troops to attack Jizhou, it was really looking for death, and the good situation would be completely ruined by this battle.

"I have Xuzhou soldiers and Taishan soldiers, which can stop Cao Cao." Liu Bei still didn't want to give up, and immediately proposed a way to deal with Cao Cao.

"Brother, combining Xuzhou soldiers and horses with Taishan soldiers and horses in the land of Mount Tai can prevent them from attacking Qingzhou, but how to prevent the land of Xuzhou and the land of Jizhou and Jizhou."

"If elder brother and Yuan Shao are both injured, Cao Cao will send troops to Xuzhou and Jizhou. After capturing the two states, he will take Bingzhou and Yuzhou. Will my lord have the ability to stop Cao Cao, who is sitting in the land of five states?"

Chen Ziming said, if both Liu Bei and Yuan Shao suffer heavy losses, the biggest winner will be Cao Cao, because at that time, no one in the whole north will be able to stop Cao Cao's attack.

For Liu Bei, the best way is to retreat to Qingzhou. When Cao Cao captures other states, it will not be a matter of minutes to destroy Liu Bei. Qingzhou does not have the natural danger of the Yangtze River, and it is impossible to burn Chibi.

"Ziming, Bo Sui is in trouble, and I have to help him." Liu Bei looked at Chen Ziming in embarrassment, hoping that Chen Ziming would come up with a good way to rescue Gongsun Zan.

"Brother, according to the discussion years ago, we should focus on defense and let the elder brother rule and recuperate, and we must not start a war again."

"As for the Battle of Youzhou, according to the original discussion, the eldest brother can support Gongsun Zan with a large amount of food and grass, and at the same time ask Gongsun Du from Liaodong to send troops to help." Chen Ziming mentioned Gongsun Du again, and he really wanted Gongsun Du to bring him closer to the war in the Central Plains. Because the Liaodong area is the place that Chen Ziming must win, it is best to consume some Gongsundu's strength.

"Bo Sui said in the letter that Gongsun Du did not want to send troops to help, but instead sent troops to block the entry into Liaodong." Liu Bei shook his head helplessly.

"Brother, you can send Gongyou to bring a lot of money, go directly to Liaodong by boat, and persuade Gongsun Du to send troops." Now Liu Bei has not many troops here, but he has a lot of money. He is definitely the richest among the many princes. More, Chen Ziming didn't believe that he couldn't impress Gongsundu.

"You should give it a try." Liu Bei immediately called Sun Qian to discuss the matter of sending him as an envoy to Liaodong.

Three days later, Sun Qian set off from Linqu Military Port with a boat full of gifts and headed straight for Liaodong. At the same time, the 20 troops in the Linzi Camp began to mobilize.

Zangba led [-] people to Xuzhou and accepted Zhao Yun's jurisdiction to guard against Cao Cao, who was about to enter Yuzhou. In this way, there were [-] troops stationed in the Xuzhou theater, and the generals included Zhao Yun, Zhang Jai, Gao Lan, Zangba, and Xu Shu as military advisors. .

Zhang Liao led [-] troops from Fenggao of Taishan County to Nancheng to garrison. Generals Guan Hai and Li Yan accompanied him. The military division was Guo Jia. The purpose was to put pressure on Cao Cao. Be careful, there are fifty thousand soldiers behind him.

Chen Dao led an army of [-] to station in Fenggao, and his task was to reinforce the troops from all walks of life at any time.

Guan Yu led [-] troops into Jinan and joined Tai Shici's [-] troops. As a result, there were [-] troops in the Jinan theater. Generals Guan Yu, Tai Shici, Pan Zhang, Xu Sheng, Pei Yuanshao, Zhou Cang, And there is Chen Gong as the military adviser.

Guan Yu's [-] troops confronted Yan Liang's [-] soldiers. Yuan Shao, who was leading the army to fight Gongsun Zan, was relieved to hear that Liu Bei only sent [-] more troops to Jinan. He could now take Youzhou with peace of mind.

The remaining [-] soldiers and horses were commanded by Zhang Fei and stayed behind at the Linzi camp, just in case.Liu Bei has not completely given up his plan to lead his troops to attack Jizhou. He asked Zhang Fei to command the [-] soldiers and horses. Fifty thousand soldiers and horses.

Now in addition to Zhang Fei, the main general of the Linzi camp, there are also Huang Zhong, Xu Huang, and Gao Shun, all of whom are very brave generals, and they are definitely the main force.

"Ziming, a large number of people fleeing from Yuzhou have already poured into Xuzhou. If this continues, the pressure on the navy will increase." Now the navy not only has to transport a large number of people to Fuzhou, but also transports a large number of various tools and daily necessities for Fuzhou's construction. , Eight warships and a three-masted sailing ship were too busy at all, and there was still time to transport food and grass to Youzhou to support Gongsun Zan.

Besides, it is not a problem for a large number of people to hoard in Linqu Military Port, and there will be a steady stream of people going to Linqu in the future.

Chapter 131 The next goal

"This is indeed a problem, but these refugees are very important to the development of the big brother, and there are definitely not too many. Let me think about it." Chen Ziming began to think about it. According to the size of Fuzhou and the current conditions, it is not a problem to feed 200 million people. .

With the refugees who fled from Yuzhou, Fuzhou can eat them all at once, but the sea transportation conditions are limited, especially in the early stage, all the necessities of life on the island have to be transported by the navy from Qingzhou, which is very difficult to solve.

"Brother, can you bring me the sea chart from the navy's survey." Chen Ziming suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly found the sea chart, which was drawn by Chen Ziming when Gan Ning and others were training.

"Brother, please take a look." Chen Ziming pointed to the map and began to explain to Liu Bei:

"This is Qingzhou, this is Jizhou, this place is Youzhou, this place is Liaodong, this place is Qingzhou Donglai County, brother, have you found anything?" Chen Ziming pointed to the map and marked a few points.

Qingzhou at the end of the Han Dynasty is the Shandong area of ​​later generations. The most prominent piece of land is Donglai, which is completely inserted into the sea.And Liaodong is the Liaodong Peninsula of later generations.

The sea area surrounded by Donglai County and Liaodong will be the Bohai Sea in later generations, and now Liu Bei’s Linqu Military Port is probably the junction of Tianjin and Shandong in later generations. If you want to go to sea from Linqu Military Port, you basically have to go to the entire Bohai Sea area.

"It's very close from Donglai to Liaodong!" Liu Bei could see the characteristics of this terrain at a glance.

"Yes, it only takes one day at most to get there by boat from Donglai to Liaodong. Moreover, brother, please look here. There is a place protruding from the sea in the past of Liaodong. The north is Lelang County and Xuantu in the west of Liaoning. County, Zhenfan County, and Lintun County, these four counties are the four counties of the Han Dynasty established during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty."

"As for the area in the south, it is not the territory of the Han Dynasty. It is occupied by Mahan, Chenhan, and Bianhan. It is divided into various places, with various forces and a large population."

"According to Gan Ning sent people to go ashore to investigate, this place is only half of Qingzhou, but there are dozens of countries here, the most powerful of which are Mahan, Chenhan, and Bianhan, so we call it Sanhan Peninsula .”

"To the north of Liaodong, bordering Xuantu is a powerful force, Goguryeo. General Gan and others have not been able to find out how big Goguryeo is, but it borders Liaodong, and it often conflicts with Gongsundu."

Chen Ziming pointed out the Sanhan Peninsula and Goguryeo of the Liaodong Peninsula in the past. The Sanhan Peninsula, that is, the southern part of the Korean Peninsula in later generations, is a very small area, not even half of the Korean Peninsula in later generations. The southern peninsula belongs to The territory of the Han Dynasty, that is, where the four counties of the Han Dynasty are located. As for Goguryeo, it still occupies the northern part of Heilongjiang and other places in later generations, which is quite powerful.

"Well, yes, Xingba has made a great contribution." Liu Bei said happily looking at this relatively complete map of power distribution.

"Brother, what I want to say is not these, but this place." Chen Ziming pointed across the Sanhan Peninsula, pointing to Fuzhou, which is the Japanese island of later generations.

"Fuzhou has been occupied by General Gan Ning. Fuzhou is too far away from Linqu. Now the naval warships are going smoothly, and it may take more than three days to arrive. But, brother, please look." Chen Ziming pointed his finger directly at Donglai County, San Korean Peninsula and Fuzhou.

"If you start from Dongnae County, it only takes one day to get to the Samhan Peninsula, and it only takes a little more than a day to get to the nearest place in Fuzhou. From the Samhan Peninsula to Fuzhou, it only takes half a day, and a slightly larger boat It can also cross this strait and reach Fuzhou from the Samhan Peninsula." Chen Ziming gestured back and forth in three places, explaining the terrain of this area to Liu Bei.

"Ziming, you mean to build a military port here?" Liu Bei also had a very strategic vision. After Chen Ziming finished speaking, he focused his attention on Donglai County.

"It is very necessary for Donglai to build a military port, so that it can draw in the connection with Fuzhou, so that it is very convenient for the navy to go north to Fuzhou or go south along the coast." Chen Ziming said affirmatively.

"Okay, let the navy choose a port on the coast of Donglai, and Donglai County will provide comprehensive assistance." Liu Bei has now felt the benefits of the navy, and easily won the land of the next state, although there is no population on it. , but this is a large piece of land, and it can be regarded as expanding the territory.

"Brother, have you never thought about taking this place?" Chen Ziming pointed his finger at the Sanhan area and asked Liu Bei suspiciously.

"Huh? Here, although the Han Dynasty did not establish a government here, it can be regarded as a vassal state of the Han Dynasty, and this place borders Zhenfan County in Liaodong. If you capture this place, you may conflict with Gongsundu." Liu Bei frowned. , I don't really want to capture here.

"If you capture this place, you must fully cooperate with the navy and mobilize a large army. If you capture it, you must station a large army to prevent Gongsundu in Liaodong." From the map, although it is very close to Donglai, it is separated by the sea. It limits the conditions for connecting with Qingzhou, and the navy is necessary.

But now the main task of the navy is to transport supplies and people to Fuzhou, and there is no way out to capture the land of Samhan.

"Brother, in the land of Sanhan, there are many contacts with the big Han. It can be defined as the subject of the big Han, and it is easy to accept the rule of the big brother. Moreover, there is a large population in this place, but most of them are slaves. Most of the people are Sanhan nobles. Slaves, the nobles of Sanhan can be killed at will, it is an uneducated land, big brother, you should practice the way of a saint and save the people from fire and water."

Chen Ziming lured Liu Bei again. The strategic position of the Sanhan Peninsula is too important and must be held in his hands. It is too close to Fuzhou. If it is taken here, it can be connected with Fuzhou.

The most important thing is that this place can be used as a bridgehead for Liu Bei to attack Liaodong. As long as the land of Sanhan is occupied, Liu Bei can attack the entire Liaodong area.

Now Yuan Shao is still very strong, and Gongsun Zan in Youzhou is not weak, and he has a good relationship with Liu Bei, so it is not easy to attack.

However, if Liu Bei wants to develop, he has no other places to go to except Jizhou, Yanzhou, Yuzhou, and Xuzhou for a long time.

So Chen Ziming set his sights on the Liaodong area. Anyway, Liu Bei now has a powerful navy, and it is no problem to transport tens of thousands of people to take Liaodong.

"Furthermore, Gongsun Du of Liaodong separatist side, led Liaodong Marquis by himself, ignored the great man Tianwei, the eldest brother is the uncle of the great Han emperor, and the emperor personally appointed the general of Hussars, so he should remove and condemn Gongsun Du for the big man." Chen Ziming knew Liu Bei, and there was no righteous thing Liu Bei will not do it.

So Chen Ziming immediately found an excuse for Liu Bei to attack Liaodong, and this excuse made sense everywhere. Gongsun Du was the first person who disobeyed the imperial order and took the Marquis of Liaodong himself, and he was definitely a rebel.

Chapter 132 Battle Report

"How many troops and how much will it cost to capture the land of Sanhan?" Liu Bei was already moved.

"Hehe, the land of Sanhan is very backward. There are few irons and armors. It only needs 2 horses, and it can be dispatched in a month or two." It's not that Chen Ziming is arrogant, but the land of Sanhan is really backward. They cannot produce ironware by themselves, and a small amount of ironware is obtained from the big man, and all of them are in the hands of a few nobles.

"As long as you conquer the Sanhan Peninsula, destroy the nobles of Sanhan, practice the government of a saint, and educate the people, you can make the people of Sanhan work for your elder brother."
