Chapter 172: Meeting on a narrow road
After deciding on the vanguard, Lin Chen quickly appointed Li Gui to be responsible for logistics, Liao Chun led two thousand troops to guard Yexian Gen, and Liu Jing was responsible for allocating ships and troops to cross the Lishui River...
"send troops!"
With everything arranged properly, Lin Chen issued an order to send troops near evening that day.
Crazy...
On the banks of the Lishui River.
The 20,000 troops, under Liu Jing's busy arrangement, boarded the boat to cross the not-so-calm Lishui River.
Compared to him, Li Gui was much more relaxed. He had been doing logistics all the time. At this time, he calculated the cost of the army and was not panicked. He was able to command the soldiers to carry food and weapons with ease.
"military adviser."
After nearly half of the soldiers crossed the Lishui River, Li Gui found Lin Chen and respectfully handed out a document and said: "Ji has just calculated that after the army crossed the Lishui River, it will take up a full twenty days. In other words, once the second batch of military equipment is not delivered by the fifteenth day, the military advisor must withdraw his troops..."
"Why not prepare more?"
Lin Chen asked subconsciously, but after asking, he regretted it.
I'm stupid.
If you can prepare more, how could Li Gui not prepare?
The key is that the size of the ships is not enough at this moment, and although some ships were arranged to Ye County before, they still lack ships.
In general...
Even if Li Gui wanted to put more food, it would be unlikely.
"Qi Bing Military Advisor."
"It's not impossible, it's impossible!"
Li Gui didn't think anything, but he thought that this was Lin Chen's exam for him. Therefore, he thought for a while before answering: "Our army lacks large ships, and the siege must be sufficient. In addition..."
After reporting the approximate data, he looked at Lin Chen carefully.
“Good done.”
Lin Chen smiled and said, "It's not easy for you to calculate the transportation limit so quickly. Well, this time, the military is hasty, so let's take the exam for the school."
"If there is another next time, I will tell you about the day of military use in advance, and you will not be in such a hurry again."
Admit your mistake?
It does not exist.
As for the school entrance exam, there are always anytime.
He was just taking the exam for Li Gui in the school, is he suitable for the position of logistics officer?
Forgot? It doesn't exist at all!
"Thank you, the military advisor!" Li Gui was very energetic.
He knew that with Lin Chen's guarantee to help him, he might be able to slowly get in touch with the military congress.
Now...
He himself felt that he was still a little short of it.
Especially compared to Lin Chen, he felt that his shortcomings were even bigger and bigger.
"Do it well, I'll be optimistic about you."
Lin Chen patted Li Gui on the shoulder and said with a smile: "I also hope that those who follow your lord like you in the early years will be able to leave a great foundation for your children and grandchildren in the future."
"Here!"
Li Gui was extremely excited, and after agreeing, he still felt that it was not enough. He immediately promised: "The military advisor valued Zhi so much, and Zhi should swear to the sky and never attacked him when allocating military funds. If there is... please cut my head!"
"I hope it's as you said." Lin Chen looked at Li Gui with complicated eyes, shook his head, and then went to command the army.
"Military advisor, what does this mean?"
Li Gui was stunned.
He had thought that Lin Chen would laugh, and perhaps expressed some disbelief, but he never expected that the latter would have such complicated eyes.
But no matter what, from this moment, Li Gui remembered Lin Chen's meaningful gaze firmly.
Afterwards, when he couldn't help but want to do something several times, he thought of this gaze, which led to him successfully passing through a series of subsequent rectifications and finally staying in the local area.
Not only that, his descendants later became one of the representatives of the local faction.
Of course, these are all later stories.
On the other hand, Lin Chen, who gave Li Gui a complicated look, also set up a camp tent across the opposite side and began to cross the river.
The Lishui River is not very wide, but it can definitely serve as a defensive line.
It is precisely because of this that Xiahou Yuan and Cao Ren did not send a large army to attack.
However, when crossing the river, the opposite side reacted.
The first thing that moved was Ren Jun, who was stationed in the Dongbugen area.
After the scout who had been arranged on the side of the Lishui River, he moved after he said that Lin Chen's army had already begun to cross the river.
Ren Jun is a very strong person.
Therefore, after hearing the legendary experience of the pair Lin Chen and Liu Bei, he immediately felt jealousy that he was unwilling to admit.
This jealousy is now transforming into his motivation to send troops quickly.
"Come!"
However, before moving, Ren Jun first sent a message to Xiahou Yuan and Cao Ren.
"This will be a frontal battle!"
Then, he murmured with excitement: "Lin Ziyuan, I want to see how powerful you are and whether you will show magic!"
After saying that, Ren Jun took the lead and led a large army to attack Kunyang quickly.
He thought very well on the way.
For example, once Lin Chen fails, he can try to surrender. If he can surrender to Cao Cao to such a person...
For example, if he could quickly cut off Lin Chen's logistics line, he might not only be able to force himself to subdue him, but also gain an army of 20,000.
For example...
All kinds of thoughts emerged like dreams.
In fact, Ren Jun didn't know why he was so excited.
Originally, he wasn't that kind of person either.
But he just couldn't help it.
If you have to find a reason, it is probably that you will meet the opponent and meet the good talent.
The reason why Xiahou Yuan and Cao Ren did not have this feeling is mainly because they are not civil and military talents.
Only true civil and military talents can have this idea about Lin Chen.
It is obvious that Ren Jun is just such a person.
"Gan Xingba, here!"
However, he soon met his opponent.
Thousands of teams were coming like hurricanes, and the people in the head were even more ill-faced with evil smiles.
"Well!"
Ren Jun pulled the reins hard, thought about it carefully, and suddenly laughed: "Gan Xingba? Could it be that Gan Ning Gan Xingba who was like a bandit in the Nanyang area?"
"You're looking for death!"
Gan Ning was furious and rode his horse out of the crowd, lifted his sword and pointed at Ren Jun angrily, "Do you dare to fight me?"
"Sure enough, are you that Gan Ning?"
Ren Jun shook his head and responded: "Personal bravery is really insignificant, let alone..."
"I did not travel with the powerful generals during this trip. Do you dare to compete with me?"
"What's not to dare?!"
Gan Ning didn't talk much nonsense, and immediately shouted "kill", and then rushed over first.
"Kill!"
"Follow General Gan to kill the enemy and make achievements!"
"The general is not afraid, let alone us?"
"kill!"
Seeing that he was so brave and a little hesitant, Dajun, who had no doubts in his heart, instantly followed his pace.
In comparison, Ren Jun's side is much worse.
Although Cao Cao's command is full of tigers and wolves, it depends on who leads it.
When the one who led them was Yu Jin and Le Jin, they were real tigers and wolves.
And if Ren Jun is replaced, everything will change.
In addition, I have to say that.
In such an era, the driving force of the powerful generals is still extremely strong.
"Are you cheating?!"
