Chapter 221

"Chu Zimu has come back. Once he goes south to attack Donghai and xiapi, we are short of famous generals and will not be able to defend."

"His next step is probably to take down the whole of Xuzhou and become a real Xuzhou herdsman."

The lords who participated in the second anti Chu Tian alliance were afraid of Chu Tian's return to Langya.

Even the second and third line defenders of Langya state can defeat more than 100000 coalition forces. Who can block the front line main force of Chutian when they come back?

The Lords of the other four prefectures in Xuzhou felt a sense of crisis. They had heard that Chu Tian had told Dong Zhuo about Xuzhou's animal husbandry.

If Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu didn't hold back, Dong Zhuo almost agreed to move to Xuzhou.

But other lords in Xuzhou knew that even if Chutian didn't get Xuzhou animal husbandry successfully, he would kill the present Xuzhou animal husbandry and replace it.

Once Tao Qian, the biggest force in Xuzhou, was eliminated, they could not resist the powerful army of Langya state.

"It seems that it is necessary to organize a third alliance, otherwise we will be defeated by the scheme of Chu Zi. There is no suspense."

"The goal of the third alliance was not to attack Langya, but to protect itself. It focused on defense. Defense is much less difficult than attack. As long as we use our military strength and solid city to block the front of Langya, he will fall into a long and difficult battle, and then our reinforcements will continue to come to support and exhaust them. "

"You have overlooked that he has many famous generals, but we have only a few weak generals. A famous general can even increase the combat effectiveness of an army by 50%, or even double or double. His troops seem small, but his combat effectiveness is very strong. That's why we failed last time. "

"I have historical facts here, general Song Jiang, who can fight first."

"Forget it. How miserable was your general Song Jiang beaten in Langya state last time? Except for the cavalry troops of the four kingdoms, the rest have not fled

“……”

"Tao Qian has no military general to use. Although Tao Qian gave a lot of heads, the amount of money and food for his troops and horses was definitely higher than that of Chu's. All he lacks is a famous general. If he had two or three famous generals instead of Cao Bao and Mi Fang, maybe he could defeat Chu zimou with his strong strength and family support. Today's Tao Qian, spare no effort to prepare for the war, should be able to provide 150000 troops. "

"The famous generals of Xuzhou are almost concentrated in Chu Tian's hands. Where can I find them?"

It is difficult for the remaining lords of Xuzhou to find a qualified military general with historical facts to serve as commander-in-chief.

"The heroes of Xuzhou are all in Langya."

The Lords of Xuzhou couldn't help sighing.

There are many generals in Langya state. How to resist them?

A lord of xiapi said, "I have a famous general here, Xiang Yan, a famous general of Chu state."

"Xiang Yan?"

Many lords heard Xiang Yan's name and finally moved.

They finally have a real sense of the famous general!

Xiang Yan, a famous general of the state of Chu at the end of the Warring States period, Li Xin, a general of the Qin Dynasty, led 200000 troops to attack the state of Chu, went deep into the territory of Chu, and tried to join forces with Meng Tian. Xiang Yanwei stayed with him for three days and three nights. He defeated Li Xin's army and killed seven Duwei. Li Xin fled back to the state of Qin.

Later, Qin Shihuang sent Wang Jian to lead 600000 troops, which defeated Xiang Yan and destroyed the state of Chu.

Although he was not as good as Wang Jian and other top commanders, Xiang Yan was qualified to be the first-class commander by defeating Li Xin and destroying Li Xin and Meng Tian's attack of destroying Chu state.

"Before attacking Langya, why didn't Xiang Yan become a general in time?"

"I have only recently recruited Xiang Yan, who wandered to my territory. Otherwise, I would not have been defeated by the garrison forces of Langya state."

"Lending Xiang Yan to Tao Qian for the time being, and using Tao Qian's forces and resources, may be able to block the attack of Chu zimou."

"There is a lord in Guangling County who has a general, Yang Wudi. If he can help him, Xiang Yan will lead the bowmen, and Yang Wudi will command the cavalry, then Chu zimou will hate Yihe. Guangling county is also one of the five prefectures in Xuzhou. Once chuzimou swept through Xuzhou, Guangling County, which was far away from the Yangtze River, could not be spared. Therefore, the Lord of Guangling county should send Yang Wudi to join. "

"Yang family General Yang Ye?"

"Yes, he was brave and good at fighting. He and song general pan Mei attacked 100000 Liao soldiers at Yanmen pass. Whenever Khitan saw Yang Ye's banner, they immediately fled. It is a pity that later, Wang Ying, the supervisor of the army, gave a disorderly command, so that Yang Ye died in the ambush of the Liao army. "

"With Yang Wudi and Xiang Liang, together with Cao Bao and Song Jiang, we may not be defeated by Chu Zimu!"

"I'm going to contact the Lord of Guangling county. He seems to be about to unify Guangling county. Yang Ye deserves to be invincible. He runs across Guangling county and is invincible. "

The Lords of the four prefectures prepared troops and horses one after another.

They have realized that Langya will soon go south to occupy Xuzhou. Only the Lords of four prefectures can block the front of Langya.

At present, there are two great lords in Donghai state, three great lords in xiapi state, three great lords in Pengcheng state, and only one great Lord in Guangling county.In addition to these great lords, there was also the most powerful Xuzhou Mu Tao Qian.

Guangling County, a lord captured the county city, General Yang Ye led the cavalry into the city.

Zhang Chao, prefect of Guangling, was killed in the battle of hulaoguan when he was fighting against Dong Zhuo. His troops and horses left behind in Guangling county were annexed by the Lords of Guangling county. The LORD with Yang Ye took the opportunity to sweep the whole Guangling county and capture the county city. He became the great Lord of Guangling Prefecture, which occupied more than half of Guangling county. His territory was no less than that of Chutian.

But he was very afraid of Chu Tian.

His number of military generals was less than that of Chutian, and he occupied Guangling county too late.

Chu Tian had already digested Langya state, established order in Langya state, and formed its own system. The public sentiment and public order of each city were very high, and appointed officials handled the internal affairs step by step.

The Yellow turban army, Mount Tai bandits and mountain bandits in Langya were eliminated or recruited. There are mountain bandits and water bandits in Guangling County, which is enough to show the gap between the two prefectures.

Once it entered the state of war, Langya could continuously recruit troops and transport grain without any worries. Guangling county was not an opponent.

"I'm half a year slower than Chu Zimu, and I've already suffered a lot. If he is allowed to annex Donghai and xiapiguo, and our country is just a Guangling County, how can we block his military front? Yang Wudi, you follow me and use the transmission array to reach xiapi. We'll go to see the governor of the state. "

After careful consideration, the Lord finally decided to join the army that resisted Chu Tian's southward annexation of Xuzhou.

Xuzhou began to prepare for the war and was once again in a state of chaos and panic.

Before the storm came, everyone was suffocating.

Instead of offering 50000 taels of silver as compensation, Tao Qian continued to recruit troops from various cities with the support of Cao Bao, and then set up defenses in Tan county.

Tan county is adjacent to Kaiyang County. It is only more than 100 kilometers from Tancheng to Xiacheng, which is not far from the Lord.

So the contest between the two sides lies between Tancheng and Xiacheng.

Among the five prefectures in Xuzhou City, the Lords of the other four counties gathered together to discuss how to strengthen the defense line of Tan county and block the military front of Langya state.

Xiang Yan, Yang Wudi and Song Jiang, three historical military generals, met with Tao Qian under the leadership of their lords. They were the historical military generals of xiapiguo, Guangling county and Donghai state.

They had famous generals, and Tao Qian had money for food, soldiers and horses, so they fell in love with each other.

Not only Xuzhou, but other states also started civil war. The Lords with less strength often united to deal with the great lords.

At this time, Chu Tian, the focus of Xuzhou, was talking with the great Confucians in the late Eastern Han Dynasty at the Du Fu thatched cottage.

With the characteristics of "four generations and three princes", Chu Tian found that Lu Zhi, Cai Yong and other literati looked at themselves differently.

In their eyes, Chutian is also an aristocratic family, and his popularity has doubled. He is no longer belittled.

Langya state Chu Zimu, four generations of Sangong, peach and plum all over the world.

Chu Tian's family background changed quietly in the eyes of heroes in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.

In short, it is easier to win over the celebrities in the late Eastern Han Dynasty with the status of an aristocratic family.

Du Fu, the sage of poetry, also took part in the conversation. Lu Zhi, Cai Yong and others were amazed by Tang poetry and Han Yuefu Poetry, so they stayed in Xiacheng for a long time.

Chutian plans to set up a literati group in Xiacheng, which will enhance Xiacheng's influence and become the cultural center of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Cao Wei had seven Jian'an sons, and Chu Tian could also establish eight famous families, including Langya Qizi, Kaiyang Qixian and Xuzhou

Cultural influence is equally important to the territory, improving the birth probability of economy, popular will and special talents.

In the chat with Cai Yong, Chu Tian learns that his daughter Cai Wenji is in Chen Liu's home, so Chu Tian reminds him to remove Cai Wenji as soon as possible to prevent being plundered by the southern Huns.

When Cai Yong heard Chu Tian's suggestion, he wrote it down in silence.

Chu Tian is the ultimate benevolence and righteousness.

In fact, Chu Tian didn't have to worry about CAI Wenji being taken away by Xiongnu, because the LORD with incorruptible power kept in Bingzhou and didn't teach Hu Ma to do Yin Mountain.

Some relatives and soldiers reported in a low voice: "Lord, the Lords of the four prefectures of Xuzhou are gathering in xiapi city to discuss the strategy of resisting the southward movement of Langya state."

"A mob without a lot of teeth. If Cao Bao is still the commander-in-chief, a million troops will not help. "

"They intend to appoint Xiang Liang as the general of Zhonglang, commander in chief of Xuzhou's bowmen, Yang Wudi as cavalry captain and commander of Xuzhou cavalry."

“……”

It's not easy now.

No matter Xiang Liang or Yang Ye, Chu Tian knows that one is a famous general of the Warring States period and the other is a famous general of the Northern Song Dynasty. Both of them have won great battles. Xiang Liang was more inclined to commander-in-chief, while Yang Ye was more inclined to force.

With the cooperation of two famous generals, Song Jiang, Cao Bao and other second and third rate generals, and with Tao Qian's financial resources, it is not easy to unify Xuzhou.

Chu Tian waved his hand and asked the soldiers to withdraw.

Seeing Chu Tian's solemn expression, Lu Zhi couldn't help wondering, "why is zimou worried? What happened? "

"Alas, I have made great achievements in fighting for the imperial court, including the Yellow scarves of Jizhou, collecting the thieves of Mount Tai, suppressing the Yellow scarves of Qingzhou, and attacking Dong Zhuo, a national thief. I have made great achievements in the war and have devoted my heart to the peace of the world. However... "Chu Tian sighed.

Lu Zhi and Cai Yong looked at each other, and were curious about the troubles of the younger generation: "zimou might as well say that we can help if we can."

"However, Mu Tao Qian of Xuzhou repeatedly sent troops to attack Langya state, and the war spread to civilians and bones everywhere. Not long ago, I went to Luoyang to crusade against the state thieves. However, he attacked Langya state with his troops, which almost made me lose all my previous efforts. Now, he has another 300000 troops, and intends to wipe out Langya at one stroke. It is really worrying. Tao Qian can't employ people. He only has relatives, which is harmful to one side. If the state of Langya governs it, the people will be in dire straits. "

Chu Tian tried to exaggerate Tao Qian's shortcomings in order to attract the sympathy of Lu Zhi and Cai Yong.

He is the weak side.

A prefect sent out troops to attack Dong Zhuo, but he was bullied by Zhou mu.

Listening to Chu Tian's remark, Lu Zhi and Cai Yong, who had a good feeling for Chu Tian, felt a little sympathy for Chu Tian.

This is the case.

Chu Tian took part in the crusade against Dong Zhuo, but Tao Qian did not. In contrast, the Langya phase of Chutian was more popular with the celebrities in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

In the past, Tao Qian had the advantage of fame, but now Chu Tian's "four generations and three gongs" still has the appeal to the aristocratic family.

Therefore, it is not difficult to understand that Lu Zhi and Cai Yong tended to help Chu Tian.

"I intend to count down Tao Qian's crimes, attack him, and save thousands of people in Xuzhou. But I'm short of military division, so I dare to ask Lord Lu to come out of the mountain and serve as a military division all the way to conquer Xuzhou. "

Chu Tian tried to recruit Lu Zhi for the first time.

Lu Zhi's qualifications are so old that Chu Tian doesn't dare to ask Lu Zhi out of the mountain easily. I really don't know what position to give Lu Zhi.

Lu Zhi's official position was higher than that of Chu Tian, so he could not be a division commander or a Duwei, even if he was a school captain.

Lu Zhi used to be a senior officer of beizhonglang. Unlike now, generals are everywhere.

So Chu thought about it and decided to let Lu Zhi, an old man, serve as a military adviser and Fang Xuanling as a member of the army. In fact, both can be used as advisers.

Lu Zhi is a commander-in-chief and intelligent hero, while Fang Xuanling is an intelligent and political hero.

Fang Xuanling was the only counselor of Chu Tian, who could only take care of all the way.

If there are more than one counsellor for each general, the actual combat effectiveness of the Legion will increase.

Lu Zhi was moved when he heard that Chu Tian wanted to worship him as his military adviser.

Even if a man is old, a hero is a hero after all. When he has a chance to meet him, he will not be lonely. Therefore, he has the feeling that he is quite old and can still feed.

Lu Zhi was replaced by Dong Zhuo before the Yellow turban was finished. Lu Zhi had some regrets after all.

"If there is a war between the two sides, maybe I can serve as a military adviser..."

Hearing Lu Zhi finally let go, Chu Tian was overjoyed.

So Luzhi was loyal to him?

However, the system does not have any confirmation prompt.

Chu Tian understood that Lu Zhi and Zhao Yun were in a state of willing to contribute, but for some reason, he was not willing to recognize the Lord.

Zhao Yun was not willing to become a new leader in a short time, while Lu Zhi didn't recognize him because of his high seniority.

It's good to be able to play for yourself.

Chu Tian did not force Lu Zhi to recognize himself as the Lord.

As for whether Luzhi will betray, most will not. It is more difficult to betray such upright people than to kill them.

In this way, Chu Tian had two military divisions: Fang Xuanling and Luzhi, who had not yet recognized the owner but promised to serve.
