Chapter 180 A different way of marching

Wuyin City.
"Kong Ming, Yuan Shao has gathered a large army in Yin'an and Yuancheng. Cao Mengde sent someone to let us gather a large army in Yangping to meet with each other!" After receiving news from Cao Cao, all previous preparations would be put into this battle. Baixidao: "With his army, we will no longer worry about food and grass, just stay for half a month!"
The past half month has been the fastest period of Baixi's expansion of its army, with millions of people in Nanyang.
After several recruitment, if all the counties were added together, the army would have a total of 200,000.
The policy of exchanging officials for food and grass has also been put into effect. Now the military's food and grass reserves are almost sufficient.
However, although the army is 200,000, the maximum number of troops that can be used is only 100,000. After all, some of them have to be stationed in Nanyang.
"Kong Ming, you will give orders later!" Bai Xi continued: "With Zang Ba and Lei Bo as the main generals, Wu Jiang as the deputy generals, 50,000 troops will be led to Yangping and the army of Cao Cao in the near future. Everything will be followed by Prime Minister Cao's orders."
"Chen Lan and Xu Shu stayed in Nanyang and were responsible for the mobilization of food and grass, and Nanyang affairs!"
"Yes, brother!" Zhuge Liang said: "But won't my brother and I go to Yangping to meet with General Zang and General Lei?"
"I have arrangements for this!" Baixi Road.
It is still late August, and Huang Yueying and Jia Zhen are going to give birth in the past two months.
But I was helpless and the plan could not keep up with the changes. I have sent troops recently and I don’t know how long it will take to come back.
Therefore, after Baixi and Zhuge Liang arranged all the matters, they went home to settle down.
Fortunately, Huang Yueying and Jia Zhen are well-educated and knowledgeable. Although they are reluctant to leave, they only instructed them to pay attention to safety on the battlefield.
Although the princes around Nanyang did not threaten Nanyang in the past six months, Jiangdong has changed a lot recently. Sun Ce was extremely ambitious and kept swallowing up all parts of Yangzhou.
Baixi sent someone to write a letter to Lu Bu to keep him paying attention at all times.
Bai Xi knew that Jiangdong and Lu Bu would have a battle sooner or later, and even if they didn't fight this year, they would fight to the next spring tomorrow.
That night, the torches were brightly illuminated in the suburbs of Yincheng, and the sky and the earth were illuminated.
Forty thousand soldiers were arranged in front of the camp, with solemn faces. Wang Meng, Lu Meng, Guan Yu and Zhang Liao stood in front of the army one by one.
"Raising troops for a thousand days, using troops for a while, brothers, it's a dog or a wolf. I'll give you a chance to show off!" Bai Xi stood on the high platform built in the army, his eyes swept across everyone, and tried his best to see the eyes of every soldier.
"Wang Meng, Lu Meng, Guan Yu obeyed the order!"
"The last one is here!" The three of them took a step forward after hearing this.
"I ordered you three to lead an army of 10,000, Lu Meng and Wang Meng, you two will break up the team, with a hundred people as a team, along the commander and the two states, targeting Dai County and Zhongshan. Remember to keep in mind that you should not be as happy as you see and hear. Every time you reach a hundred miles, you will contact each other and register the number of soldiers!"
"Guan Yu and I personally led 10,000 soldiers along Yuzhou, Qingzhou, and Jizhou Bohai, and target Fanyang County in the same way!"
"Did you understand!"
"I understand!" The three of them bowed.
In fact, Bai Xi divided the selected 90,000 troops into two groups, one of which was Zang Ba, Lei Bo, and the 50,000 troops led by Wujiang went to Yangping, Yanzhou to meet with Cao Cao's army.
The 40,000 troops were in one group. Due to the large number of people, the goal was too large and the road was long, it was impossible to directly arrive in Youzhou to assist Zhao Yun. Then they were broken into pieces and divided into four routes, with ten cavalry heads, hundreds cavalry heads and thousands cavalry heads as steps, and then they were divided into different paths.
This is equivalent to a tree map, where it is constantly separated and contacted, and will meet again after reaching the destination.
Bai Xi has written a booklet for them to share the location and the precautions on the road.
As for the specific difficulties encountered along the way, let Wang Meng and Lu Meng carefully decide to solve them.
Bai Xi knew that Wang Meng and Lu Meng were young, and they were very young, and they lacked experience on the battlefield, but most of the 40,000 soldiers were actually on their first expedition and facing different dangers.
And this time, the reason why young generals and leaders led the young soldiers was to train them, because they have been in a greenhouse like Nanyang for too long and need to go through such hardships.
Once this trip is gone, it is much more dangerous.
Perhaps Bai Xi did this and finally arrived in Youzhou with only 20,000 soldiers, or even fewer.
But Bai Xi believes that as long as the people who can finally stay during this long journey will be strong soldiers.
The so-called fighting to support war.
Lu Meng, Wang Meng, and many young cavalry captains in the army. What the Qiancavalry captains experienced this time is no less experience than fighting ten or hundreds of battles.
If Lu Meng and Wang Meng do it well, they will be able to form the spirit of a general in the future and truly stand on their own.
Many soldiers will eventually stand out from it.
Moreover, this marching method is faster than the overall marching, and you may be able to reach your destination in less than fifteen days.
"General Wenyuan, you and Hou Wen came from Liangzhou and Bingzhou to the Central Plains. There must be many ways to deal with foreign races that others don't know, so General Wenyuan will spend more time this time!" Bai Xi continued: "I will tell him where Hou Wen!"
In fact, according to time, Zhang Liao would return to Xia Pi soon.
Of course, Bai Xi didn't want to let such a mature general leave. It happened that this time the troops were sent, so he had to be brought with him no matter what.
"I understand this. In the past, most of the Qiang people were fighting. This time I met Wuhuan, I would do my best!" Zhang Liao replied with his hands.
In fact, although there is something to do every day, Zhang Liao has been holding back for a long time when he gets used to living on the edge of a knife.
This is the first time that Bai Xi has so resolutely advanced to Youzhou in this way.
The journey is full of challenges, especially the complex situation in Youzhou, which is no longer as good as Zhang Liao likes this kind of challenge in Bingzhou and Liangzhou back then.
"I'm going too!"
"Qi Ling, why are you here?" Bai Xi turned around and saw Lu Qi Ling wearing armor, handsome and handsome, who had arrived in front of him and Zhang Liao.
"I'm going to Youzhou this time, I'm going to go too!" Lu Qiling said again.
"Qi Ling, this time it is quite dangerous, isn't it as stable as it is in this Central Plains?"
"You think I'm afraid." Lu Qiling continued: "This kind of leadership of troops, especially when you go to places like Youzhou, you can ask General Wen Yuan, I'm no worse than anyone!"
"Brother Bai, Miss Wen has been following Marquis Wen for many years. This ability to fight in war is indeed not a single person. Why not let the lady follow her!" Zhang Liao said at this time.
"Okay, since that's the case, you can also bring a team!" Bai Xi nodded: "It's just that you must not act willful on the way. Everything depends on my arrangements with Sima in the army!"
