Chapter 61?
"If so, I will suggest that the lord urgently order General Jiang Zheng to pacify the two remnants of Han Sui and Ma Chao, or to drive them to the north of Jincheng." Zhao Deng stood up and said with a solemn look on his face.
Liu Yun was stunned and asked, "Why is there such a saying? Do you have to settle the country first when fighting foreign countries? Haha. But Zhao Deng, you also know that whether it is Han Sui or Ma Chao, they are all centipede insects. They are not so easy to pacify when they die without being stiff. These two people are now fighting in Yuzhong with tens of thousands of troops. How could Jiang Zheng easily pacify the two sides? The battle between the two sides becomes a melee?"
"We must first settle the country before fighting against foreign countries... This is probably the case. Because of this, the last general suggested that the lord take this opportunity to pacify Han Sui, Ma Chao and the two Liaos. In the battle between Yuzhong, it has been several days since the battle between them. Both sides are tired troops. If there is an elite army, attacking them from behind, they will definitely be dispersed." Zhao Deng said.
Liu Yunban lay on the table and raised his hand and said, "You keep talking."
"The collapsed army will be difficult to become more climate in a short period of time. At this time, the lord can do his best to deal with all the things in Guanzhong, and raise all the troops from Hanyang, gather tens of thousands, and the army is facing Chang'an. Anything happens can be dealt with. At the end, the general heard that many princes of the Kanto counties have raised their troops to rebel against Dong. At that time, the lord will have an absolute advantage in the face of the Kanto princes." Zhao Deng analyzed.
His suggestions reveal his former swordsman's style of opening and closing.
Liu Yun simply understood it as using his absolute military advantage to suppress the uneven alliance army in the east and take the initiative.
In fact, the advice is indeed good. This is a matter of who has the biggest fist.
And Liu Yun’s fist is not small at all now.
Although it is a place between two counties and is still a little far from the territory of one state, but Liu Yun has many soldiers under him.
And they are all professional soldiers after Liu Yun's reform, which is a unique feature of the place where Liu Yun owns it.
If the city defense forces in various places were added, the total number of troops under Liu Yun should be 120,000.
Among the princes in various places, the soldiers under Liu Yun's command were definitely a very terrifying number.
Even Liu Yan, Liu Biao and others who occupied a state, did not have as many military horses as Liu Yun.
Now that the only one with Liu Yun’s military strength is equal, Dong Zhuo is probably the only one!
There is no one else besides this.
With this, Liu Yun already has the foundation to admire heroes in the world.
The great men's kindness and chivalrous spirit made Liu Yun feel quite terrifying.
In just a few months, it was not obtained by Liu Yun's various forced recruits.
Liu Yun, the army of Hanyang County, was the first part. After he merged with Ma Teng's troops, he received tens of thousands of people, and almost all of them were refugees from all over the country.
After they came to Hanyang and settled their homes here, many people immediately turned around and joined the army.
After hearing that there is still food to get in the army every month, this amount becomes even more terrifying.
Almost every day, it grows in the posture of hundreds or thousands of people.
"What do you think?"
Liu Yun did not give any reply to Zhao Deng's suggestion, but instead asked others.
Except for the lieutenant under Zhao Deng, the others here are all lieutenant under Jiang Zheng.
In the Han Dynasty, the lieutenant was considered a true general in charge of the army and had actual military power.
A high-ranking and powerful general only had the power to lead troops during wartime.
But for Liu Yun, it is completely different.
The lieutenant and the marquis of the army are all intermediate generals, and the one who really takes charge of the first army is the general.
That is, Gai Xun, Zhao Deng, Wang Zhi and Jiang Zheng.
A captain under Zhao Deng stood up and said, "Lord, General Zhao's plan is completely feasible. Or, he can leave a military horse to guard against Han Sui and Ma Chao in the north, and watch the tiger's fight on the mountain. The variables are smaller than going down the mountain to fight on the tiger."
"These two men fought in Yuzhong and were close to us. If we did not take advantage of the situation and eliminate the roots, we would have to leave trouble. If our troops trapped Sanfu, one of the two men took advantage of the situation and entered, there would be no way out at that time." Another lieutenant immediately stood up and retorted.
"But have you ever thought that Han Sui and Ma Chao have a deep foundation in Liangzhou. The two of them gathered in Yuzhong at this time had more than 100,000 troops. Unless the lord set up the troops in the county and the army was approaching, it would be difficult to completely eliminate the roots." The captain under Zhao Deng stared at his eyes and said loudly.
...
Seeing that the generals were having a big quarrel about this matter, Liu Yun raised his hand to stop everyone and said, "Han Sui, Ma Chao is not the focus, so there is no need to discuss it anymore. Jiang Zhengtun guards Didao and set up a defense line. What's more, Gai Xun and Wang Zhi are in the west of Longxi, and they cannot escape for the time being. If Han Sui, or Ma Chao, take advantage of the opportunity, can also help. Our intention to send troops this time is for Guanzhong, and we don't have that much time."
After discussing for a long time, Liu Yun felt that his previous considerations were more reliable.
Without any underestimation of the enemy, neither Han Sui nor Ma Chao is so easy to deal with. There is almost no possibility of solving it once and for all.
The battlefield changes rapidly, and no one knows what the result will be until the last moment.
Liu Yun must use the most reliable way of playing, and seeking other things is necessary, but maintaining his foundation is still the first priority.
Liu Yun made the decision and the matter was settled, and Zhao Deng didn't say anything else.
"There are two ways to advance to Luoyang. First, go south to Hanzhong, second, take the detour to Wuzhangyuan, and stand on the side of Chang'an. What do you think?" Liu Yun asked around everyone.
Zhao Deng's mind was a little overturned. He asked with difficulty: "Lord, why did you take Hanzhong? Isn't this a completely different way?"
"Hanzhong has abundant grains and abundant food and grass. If we are deeply trapped in Guanzhong, we must fight a protracted battle, and Hanzhong can provide us with sufficient food and fodder." Liu Yun said.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Deng had almost no consideration and said decisively: "I will see you at the end and take Hanzhong first."
"Does other people have other opinions?" Liu Yun looked at the six or seven captains in the hall and asked.
Everyone was speechless and expressed their opinions with their expressions, and took Hanzhong first.
After all, these generals knew in their hearts that although Hanyang is now strong, he is very poor and short of food.
"Send an order to reveal the world and raise an army to fight against Dong's thieves! Zhao Deng sent a fast horse to Hanzhong to meet Su Gu and ask for food and supplies to support Dong's request. If he doesn't agree, don't hesitate, turn around and leave, and then we will kill him." Liu Yun waved his hand, stood up with a knife in his hand, and shouted in a deep voice.
"Here!" Zhao Deng smiled a little meanly and replied.
Because he felt that his lord's move was really a bit cheap, and he would beat you if he didn't give him food. How could Su Gu think that his lord had such a bad temper?
