The portable magic tower of the Three Kingdoms

"General Lu, the relationship with the officers of the frontier army has indeed become closer and closer recently. Brother, the foolish brother may be a villain with a villain's heart, but this situation must be guarded against." Lu Yan reminded.

When it comes to issues involving military power, there is nothing wrong with being more cautious.Really wait for someone to completely control the military power, then it will be easy to go wrong.

"It's not a big problem at the moment. If someone plans to rebel, they will inevitably suffer a very tragic end. But in the long run, there are only two ways to solve it." Liu Tao replied casually, "One is to introduce military salaries, and the other is to send supervisors .”

At present, in the army, only officers, at least corporal leaders and above, will receive military pay.At present, the amount of military pay is not much, Liu Tao promises that he will gradually increase it when he becomes rich.

The distribution of military pay is more to give the soldiers some hope and a sense of belonging to the army; Needless to say, a group of civil servants went in, under the name of the Supervising Army, to do propaganda work, and even served as supervising officers.

These military supervisors are directly responsible to him, they are his eyes and ears in the army, Liu Tao had already thought about it, and in the future, Guo Jia would be responsible for this aspect. Strictly speaking, it would be more appropriate for Jia Xu to do it.

The biggest problem at this stage is that one is not enough money and the other is not enough scribes, so we can only use stupid methods.

Thinking of this, he clapped his hands and said, "Okay, let's not talk about that, another question, what do you think?"

"Speaking of which, my subordinates are also a little curious. If they sent people south to check because the previous two thousand soldiers failed to return, then they should also go south from the Yinshan Mountains first, which is more normal. Now it is from Dingxiang. Come over here..."

That is to come from outside the Great Wall. Strictly speaking, it is still under Yanmen County, and there is a Qiangyin County outside the Great Wall.Of course, this county seat has also been abandoned, which is said to have happened more than ten years ago.

Liu Tao read Xianbei's information before traveling. After Tan Shihuai's death, Budugen's sphere of influence was Yunzhong and Yanmen; Kebineng's department was active in Daijun and Shanggujun, which is next to Yanmen. .

Not ruling out the possibility that the other party came over through Yanmen County, Liu Tao now suspects that the Xianbei tribe that came over is actually not the Budugen tribe, but the Kebineng tribe.Until this happens, the roots of Budu will sometimes not respond, which is what he cares most about!

Chapter 300 Everything is under control

It is necessary for everyone to look at the map together, and we can see some clues.

If you are coming from the grassland north of Yanmen, you should take the mountain road in the north and pass through Wuquan County.Wuquan County is located in the northeast of Beiyu County, about twenty miles away, just on the Beijing-Xinjiang Expressway.

If Budugen wants to go south, he usually goes to Beiyu, just to be on the safe side, so he adds Wuquan County.Now Wuquan County has not been set up, so Beiyu County has become the front line of resistance to the roots of Budu.

"That is to say, if the roots of Budu go south, then the first warning should be Beiyu County, not Dingxiang County." Liu Tao pointed to Tuyu, "The way to Dingxiang County should actually be It's over there in Yanmen County."

There are mainly mountain roads that can run through Liangcheng County in later generations, and the front and back are only about eighty miles away.The mountain road is not very easy to walk, but it takes two or three days to get there.

Fifty miles southeast of Liangcheng County is Qiangyin County, which is a lonely city in Yanmen County hanging outside the Great Wall.The reason why the city was set up here is because it is close to Yanze, which is an inland lake called Daihai in later generations.

It belongs to the inland saltwater lake. In the final analysis, this is the meaning of the existence of Qiangyin County.

"Since there is Yanze, can Budugen really monopolize here?" Guo Jia proposed a direction of thinking.When it comes to the issue of salt, don't think that this must be a battleground for Xianbei's military strategists.

"In addition, starting from there, the terrain is gradually flattening, and it is more suitable for the Xianbei to attack. Qiangyin County is not far from Daijun, and the possibility of the Kebi Neng's being active is still very high." Xun Yu also agreed with this view. .

Many things can be seen more or less just by looking at the map.

"Then the conclusion is almost there." Liu Tao nodded, "This time, the ones who came here are not the Budu Root Department, but the Kebineng Department. But why did they come here when the winter just started?"

It is not very confusing to say that it is not very confusing. In the memory of 186 years, that is, next year, Xianbei will invade Bingzhou in December.In December, you can go south in the deep winter. In the early winter, if the weather is not completely cold, then don't be afraid!

"This year's winter seems to be relatively warmer, so I shouldn't have so many scruples." Lu Yan thought for a while.

"What's more, we didn't expect them to call in the early winter, so it's even more impossible to know about Budu's roots. We even need to make a hypothesis, in case Kebineng comes to explore the way, The root of the next step will go south, so what?" Jian Yong put forward a new point of view.

"No, no, my subordinates think that this should be Ke Bineng's own intention." Guo Jia shook his head, "Yunzhong is the conscription point at the root of Budu, and when you need to conscript and plunder, you can go south. This is also an important basis for his confrontation with the Kebineng Ministry, this is his hunting ground, and he will not allow others to come and hunt."

"What if he feels that the lambs in this hunting ground have become man-eating beasts, and he may not be able to handle them, so he asks Ke Bineng for help?" Jian Yong retorted.

Liu Tao's ability can only be fixed in one field, so it's hard to say whether Beiyu can guarantee that Budu's roots will not go south.Perhaps, Bu Dugen deliberately did not go south, and it is also possible that he would go south to pick up the cheap after Liu Tao and Ke Bineng had an inextricable fight.

"In that case..." Xun Yu pointed to the map, where Yuanyang County was located.

Yuanyang can be said to be Liu Tao's arrival in Yunzhong County, the last county in the north that did not have an abandoned county, and now it has become the rear.

In other words, it is precisely because it is in the rear that its role as a city connecting Beiyu and Dingxiang County is much more important than before.

"Just in case, I decided to use Yuanyang County as the rear and set up camp here." Liu Tao pointed to Yuanyang County, "The whole army will prepare and then go out. That should be a day or two later. Counting the distance, it should have been about five or six days when we arrived at Yuanyang County."

For five or six days, it is impossible for the Xianbei army to remain completely silent.The greatest possibility is that Dingxiang County has been surrounded, and at the same time, it has begun to loot that area over there.

Of course, it is estimated that nothing can be looted. The military town has been completely transformed there, and the grain has been harvested early and stored in the granary in the city.Guan Yu has been in the past for so long, in the final analysis, he specially built several large granaries in the city.

At the same time, several wells were specially dug, so even if they were besieged, there was no need to worry about food and water issues.

"I have heard that in the past Xianbei raided grass valleys, they seldom attacked cities, after all, they didn't have the ability. So they mainly plundered places, plundered food, supplies and people." Jian Yong said slowly, he said this It's not for nothing to be the master for a while, "They will not surround Dingxiang County, they will keep moving. When we pass by, there may be encounters!"

"So the cavalry is the main force, and the crossbowmen are responsible for restraining them. It is almost impossible to rely on infantry to catch up with them." Liu Tao had expected.

The reason why the Hu people are difficult to calm down is that a big man lacks horses and cannot catch up with the other party.The second is that the imperial court is too unfamiliar with the grassland, and it is easy to get lost when there are no landmarks. The opponent can easily use the grassland to fight back.

When the number of Hu people is large, you can still see some tribes after walking a certain distance, which is somewhat rewarding.

But when the fight reaches a certain level, the opponent directly plays guerrilla warfare. At this time, the harvest is getting less and less, the expenditure is increasing, and the battle is getting more and more difficult to fight.If the eyes are covered by the bonus of the war in the early stage, then the future is doomed to be miserable.

At this point in the temple calculation, it is almost the end. Many things cannot be calculated, especially the encounter battle, which really counts for a long time, but the actual fight is another situation.

Of course, Liu Tao's situation is a bit special. If he is willing, he can walk ten miles a day, and then rely on Fenglong's insight to see all the way. Generally, he can see the situation of the enemy army, how many people there are, and how they came here.

After all, a radius of ten miles is still a bit small, but if you want to upgrade, it means you need to increase the level of air magic, which means you need to consume 1 free skill point.

If possible, at this stage, he decided to point out the light magic and metamorphic magic first.

Things are as expected, it only takes an hour for the whole army to assemble, but it takes a day for the transportation of materials.The city defense was arranged, so Zhang Yun was left behind.

He had some regrets about not being able to go out with the army, but he was also very aware of the importance of his responsibility to stay behind, so before the army left, he just solemnly promised that he would swear to defend Yunzhong County.

"The enemy army is heading towards Dingxiang County..." Liu Tao said on the first day of the expedition, "It is expected to arrive in a day. Xianbei rarely attacks cities, so it is very likely that they will be looting After a while, head towards Yuanyang County, we have to move forward quickly! Tell the whole army to speed up!"

"Here!" All the generals responded one after another, and at the same time sighed: It is really convenient to have the eyes of heaven!

Chapter 301 They Are Here

Yunzhong County is only more than 70 miles away from Yuanyang County, mainly because Yunzhong County is the seat of Yunzhong County.

After confirming that Xianbei's main force was only in Dingxiang County and did not advance westward on a large scale, the army quickly accelerated its movement and finally arrived at Yuanyang County before nightfall.

"This marching speed..." Lu Bu looked at the pawns, feeling a strong sense of incongruity.In the past, if you marched like this, you would definitely be able to arrive, but the soldiers below are basically exhausted.

As a result, the pawns are exhausted now, but depending on the situation, they still have enough combat power; and this time, it is almost half an hour earlier than scheduled... In a daze, he seemed to think of something, and immediately looked at Liu Tao.

As if feeling his gaze, Liu Tao looked up at him.At this moment, Lu Bu's eyes were full of doubts, and there was also some hint of consulting.Liu Tao thought for a while, then nodded towards him.

Sure enough, it was the lord's spell... Lu Bu felt that something was wrong when he was sparring with Wang Shi's men before.It was only later that I found out that the lord was actually a child of the Xian family.With the descendants of the Xian family and the clan members of the Han family, if he is not the emperor, who will be the emperor?

Otherwise, why would I be so eager to hope that he could start his army sooner?He even felt that, with this background, why didn't he just raise an army, maybe he could become the emperor sooner, and he had to wait for some chaos in the world, it was a waste of time!

Fortunately, Chen Gong explained to him later: Wang Xing is a teacher of justice!The protagonist walks the kingly way, not domineering!

"Set camp on the spot. The Xianbei troops stopped at Dingxiang. It seems that they don't plan to set up camp, but they don't plan to move either. We can have a good night's rest." Liu Tao ordered.
