Chapter 1,238: Zhao State's Unusual Movements

Bingzhou Shangjun skin treatment (now Yuhe Town, Yulin, Shaanxi Province). There are a total of 99 people in the game. The cities are Fushi, Qiuci, Baitu, Zhenlin, Sheyan, Gaonu, Dingyang, Diaoyin and Qiyuan. In addition, there are dozens of foreign tribes scattered throughout Shangjun, which are exactly the same as the former Wuyuan and Shuofang counties controlled by Zhao Zilong and others.

It can be said that this is the case in the entire Hetao area. Dozens of cities are controlled by foreign tribes. Not only that, the areas outside the cities are also the sphere of influence of various tribes. Jiangshan was forced to leave Hedong and enter Shangjun. Fortunately, there were 20,000 Hedong soldiers and horses, so he quickly occupied Fushihe and Gaonu. However, he did not have a strong history in his hands at that time. Military general, and the distance between the two cities is really far, his 20,000 soldiers and horses can only barely maintain the stability of the two cities, let alone continue to expand the scope of influence.

If this is the case even for the country, let alone the leftover and the dominant, the importance of historical generals to players is self-evident. Just like Xia Ke, when he first entered Shuofang, his military strength was comparable to that of Jiangshan, or even slightly inferior. However, he had one civil, two military and three generals in his hands. It was these three generals that allowed him to quickly open up the situation in Shuofang.

Jiangshan's real rise came after he inadvertently took Fazheng under his command. With the addition of this top strategist-level general, Jiangshan quickly stabilized the situation, and soon after surrendered the Hun King Liu Bao. In this way, Jiangshan developed even more. speed up. Soon they first captured Yuanyin City in Xihe County.

After stabilizing Yuanyin City, he closed the Yulin Pass on the north side of the Great Wall and beat the dogs, killing all the foreign tribes south of the Great Wall. After that, he set his sights on Kucha City north of Yulin Pass.

If Huangfu Chaobo had given him another year or two, it is estimated that Jiangshan would be able to occupy all the nearly twenty cities within the several bays of the Yellow River.

With the country's foundation, it can barely reach the level it is today, let alone the one who remains is the king and the hegemon. It's good to have a general like Xu Huang, but his starting point is far inferior to Jiangshan, so even with a general like Xu Huang, his development is not embarrassing.

At present, the King of the Remainers only occupies a city in Dingyang. In addition to the soldiers, horses and family members he brought with him to Shangjun, as well as the people gathered around him after capturing Yiyang, Dingyang City and its surroundings are now There are nearly 60,000 people in the several villages and towns under the control, and they can barely support 10,000 soldiers and horses.

The situation in Shangjun is really too bad. If there is a Central Plains region, with a county of 60,000 people and a general like Xu Huang, after a few years, it will be well-equipped with troops and food, and then it will have already begun to attack the rest of the country. The place developed. There would not be only 8,000 infantry and 2,000 cavalry like now.

And Xiongba should be the worst among the three. Except for the county town of Diaoyin, it has the lowest population, soldiers, and generals among the three.

After listening to Guo Jia's detailed introduction, everyone was obviously relieved. Although Shangjun also has more than 50,000 troops, the real elite should be 15,000 to 20,000, and the rest are ordinary county soldiers. It belongs to three forces, and their own army of 50,000 to 60,000 people should be no problem.

Huangfu Chaobo, who was on the throne, thought for a moment, turned to look at Pang Tong and said, "Leave the war in Shangjun to Shi Yuan!"

"I obey your orders!" Pang Tong stood up and accepted the orders;

"General Dian, after the discussion is over, we will draw one thousand Iron Eagle warriors and one thousand Yuan Rong crossbowmen from the Guards, and three thousand cavalry, as Shi Yuan's personal guards to protect his safety. Each of these five thousand soldiers will be one person and two soldiers. Horse configuration." Huangfu Chaobo thought for a while.

And he ordered;

Pang Tong was also very moved and quickly stood up to thank him. Huangfu Chaobo didn't pay attention, waved his hand and said, "There are a few things that I would like to remind Shiyuan to pay attention to."

"Please give me your orders, Your Majesty!"

"One is the military advisor named Fa Zheng under Jiang Shan. Shi Yuan must pay more attention to it. Fa Zheng, whose courtesy name is Xiaozhi, is from Fufengyin. He is the grandson of Fa Zhen, a famous scholar in Guanzhong. It is said that he is good at scheming. He joined Jiang Shan's subordinates from then on. , even the rapid development of Jiangshan's power can be seen."

"There is another general who is under the command of the leftover king. His surname is Xu Minghuang. He should be from Yang, Hedong. It is said that he is brave enough to be invincible. He uses a big ax and has extraordinary martial arts. He should be the same as Hua Xiong. The generals are equal to each other. If the generals in the army are against him, he should be very careful. Moreover, he is calm and calm in his troops, so he should be careful when fighting against him."

Huangfu Chaobo was talking, and Pang Tong was listening and nodding. After talking about the people the opposing generals should pay attention to, he thought of the several famous battles that took place here when the new dynasty was on the Loess Plateau in the real world, and quickly explained: : "The terrain in the southern part of Shangjun is unique. There are ravines everywhere. It is completely different from the terrain we usually know. After Shiyuan arrives in the army, he must act with caution."

Several people were talking, and suddenly they stood aside and reported in a low voice: "Your Majesty, General Shi A is asking for a meeting outside the palace, saying that he has important information to report to the King!"

Huangfu Chaobo was stunned and immediately said: "Quickly pass!"

A moment later, Shi'a's figure appeared at the door of the palace. He was seen walking in a hurry, holding a dove letter in his hand. After arriving at the palace, he bowed: "I have to bow to the king!"

"General Shi invites you!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Your Majesty, I just received the pigeon message from Jinyang. Zhao Jun's troops and horses have moved!" As he said that, he handed the pigeon message in his hand to the servant next to him.

Huangfu Chaobo took a look at the pigeon letter and frowned: "Zhao Jun is secretly mobilizing troops and horses to go north to Yanmen. Is Lu Bu going to attack Wuyuan again?"

With that said, he handed the pigeon message in his hand to the chamberlain and motioned for him to hand it over to Guo Jia in the palace, who was originally responsible for intelligence analysis. After Guo Jia took the pigeon letter, he read it twice carefully. Then he quickly walked to the map and looked at it carefully. After a long time, he said: "Your Majesty, King Zhao's intention this time is probably not Wuyuan, but here..."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed at a place, and everyone looked in the direction of his finger.

"Shanggu!" Huangfu Chaobo said with a frown;

"That's right, Shanggu!" Guo Jiadao said: "King Zhao has already been defeated twice at the foot of Feiyang City. In addition, Shangdang was taken away by our country last year, so he should not send troops to Wuyuan again this time."

Having said this, he raised the pigeon in his hand and said: "According to the news sent back from the shadow, Jinyang's several convoys transporting grain and grass were all heading towards Yanmen. If Zhao really wanted to attack Fuyang, why? Instead of going directly to Dingxiang into the clouds, take a detour to Yanmen?”
