Chapter 1530: The Battle of Xuzhou (127)

Although there were some differences between the judge and the frustrated professor on this matter, it was obvious that the two were very interested in using birds to transmit information, and he didn't understand what kind of brain Liu Lan was, how he had such an idea, and the most rare thing was that he not only put it into practice but also succeeded.

In fact, now compared to the trial, the most unconfident is frustrated, this breeding pigeon, is not as easy as imitating a dwarf, as long as according to the map or according to the physical imitation, the craftsman can make it, it will not be too complicated, but raising livestock and birds, this is difficult.

The two people who walked out of the room were worried and happy, and the previous trial of Liu Lan's use of soldiers like gods was obviously the one with a happy face, because he finally found the reason why Liu Lan used soldiers like gods, if he knew the enemy's actions early in the morning and deployed in advance, he could also guarantee to defeat any enemy, no wonder Liu Lan has been so arrogant in recent years, this matter was placed a few years ago, and it would be found that it was not something that Liu Lan could do at all.

At that time, Liu Lan was low-key, of course, maybe he was fledgling, but Liu Lan at that time was like two people now, and he had seen Liu Lan once in Yecheng, but at that time, he only glanced at Liu Lan who was chasing the Huns to Yecheng from a distance on the city tower.

At that time, Liu Lan was just Cao Cao's 'pawn' and could be completely ignored, but his performance in the Battle of Jizhou was completely unexpected, and it can be said that he turned the tide of the battle with the strength of one person, otherwise Gongsun Zan would definitely die, but he would definitely lose.

From which time, the trial began to really examine Liu Lan, this person is low-key, can endure and have the patience to find fighters and wait for the opportunity to appear, as long as the opportunity appears, then he will exceed the determination and courage of ordinary people, this has always been a point that the trial match admires, but with the disclosure of the truth, he found that the formation that was not Liu Lan's thing was different from what he thought.

It's like Lu Bu's defeat, which he has never been able to understand, Lu Bu raided Xuzhou City, such a secret action, Liu Lan actually mobilized more than half of the main force from the battle with Yuan Shu in just a few years, and arrived at the moment when Xuzhou City was about to break the city, not only successfully held Xuzhou, but also defeated Lu Bu, so that Lu Bu had to flee to Cao Cao alone.

The answer he thought of before was nothing more than Liu Lan's fast reaction, but now he knew that it was not Liu Lan's fast reaction, but that he got the information quickly and was able to make the most accurate deployment in the shortest time, otherwise the news of Xuzhou's attack would reach Liu Lan's ears from Xuzhou, and Liu Lan would send troops back to help.

He finally understood the reason, and he attached more importance to the transmission of carrier pigeons, whether in the short term or in the long run, the significance of carrier pigeons is extremely important, it can not only accurately grasp the situation of the enemy when facing the enemy, but more importantly, once anything happens under their rule, it can also be transmitted through the carrier pigeon.

Thinking of this, the trial was already very excited, as for whether it would fail, he didn't think so much, and even didn't think about the frustration of the singing, yes, Cao Cao failed, but with Cao Cao's financial resources, not to mention the failure of the carrier pigeon, there is a chance that everything will fail.

On this point, the trial is confident, and they don't think that Cao Cao can't do what they can't do, Cao Cao wants to do it without the financial resources to do it, but they are different, they have strong financial resources, not to mention a small carrier pigeon, even if it is to raise tigers, it is no problem.

The judge walked out of the house with a happy heart, and almost hummed a small tune, and the depressed face that contrasted with him was not so good-looking, but there was some bitterness and some sin, so he could only break the silver teeth and go to the stomach, it was useless to complain about difficulties, what he had to do now was to find a way, if he could solve the difficulties.

And for the henchmen and ministers who have been with Yuan Shao all the year round, they naturally understand this truth, the general handed over such an important task to you, not just trust you, but have great hopes and pinning on you, you have to take this matter, you have to take it if you don't take it, and you must do it well, and you have to do it beautifully.

This is the embarrassment or helplessness of the position he is in now, it is one thing to have unlimited scenery on weekdays, and it is another thing to have a lot of pressure and heavy responsibilities, otherwise why is it your turn to sit in this position?

Think about the predecessor Tian Feng, will he be worse than himself, not bad, but now, hang a false position as an idle errand, this is the risk of his position, enjoying the scenery of one person under ten thousand people, and also under the huge pressure from all directions, frustrated to cheer up some spirits, first of all, at this time, especially before doing nothing, I can't be discouraged, otherwise this flying pigeon will have no hope.

walked out of the backyard without saying anything with the judge, and then the two of them each boarded into their respective temporary living rooms, and Yuan Shao, who saw the two leave, did not improve at all on his face, although he found the truth he wanted to know, but the key battle of Xuzhou did not change much.

If flying pigeons is the top priority now, then the battle of Xuzhou will be before it, and with Guan Yu's arrival in Langya, all their previous plans will be in vain, Yuan Shao cannot force Gao Ran to attack Langya, and Gao Ran will not attack rashly, so in this case, he can only send Wen Chou over in advance, although this seems to be a bit rushed, but in addition, is there any better way?

Although he has not yet received news from Gao Ran, he can think that when Guan Yu arrives in Langya, no matter how much the Setshan camp passes with him, Gao Ran has no hope of capturing Langya, and it is very easy to fall into the quagmire of Langya, and the trouble will only be greater at that time.

For Guan Yu, Yuan Shao has some understanding, this person is different from ordinary generals, and can not be described as a martial artist, it can be said that he is a general with both civil and military skills, and he has his own set of methods for commanding operations, especially in defense, when he was in the battle of Jizhou, he was able to hold the plain with very few troops, so that Yan Liang could see that this person still had some experience in defending the city, in this case, let Gao Ran go to attack Langya, there is no chance of winning.

Yuan Shao figured out these truths after receiving Gao Lan's documents, so he simply sent Wen Chou over, so that hundreds of thousands of troops were gathered together, not to mention launching a huge Langya exhibition, even if it was put aside, it could make Liu Lan worry, and his family had a thick foundation, a lot of food, and he was the most accountable if he consumed it, not to mention that Cao Cao was still eyeing him on the side, and it was definitely not them who would have a headache when the time came.

~~~~~~~~~~~

When he returned to the wing, the first thing he did when he entered the door was to call Pingyuan Xiang, and ask him to send a few county officials and scribes early tomorrow morning, and after the market opened, he would call all the breeding merchants in Pingyuan County to him.

The things that the frustration gave the order of the plain naturally did not dare to slack off, listen carefully, and after the frustration gave the explanation, he waved him away, there is too much information about today's things, he needs a person to quietly recall what happened before and after, recall what he has omitted, this careful thinking, only to find that because the lord suddenly mentioned the carrier pigeon, the most important battle of Xuzhou was forgotten.

In fact, he had reservations about Yuan Shao's decision to send Wen Chou, but when he knew that Liu Lan had carrier pigeons to deliver the news, he didn't think about it so much, if Liu Lan didn't have such a convenient way to communicate, Fu Zhu would prefer to wait for Gao Ran's results to investigate Langya before making a decision on whether to send Wen Chou, but if Liu Lan had a carrier pigeon in his hand, then such a decision would be meaningless, because the distance between the plain and the North Sea, it is impossible for you to dare to reach the position you want to go to before Liu Lan makes a deployment, not to mention a sudden attack, it's good not to be attacked by others.

So this matter he can be regarded as acquiescing in the decision of the lord, and another thing, tomorrow the housekeeper will go to gather the breeders, whether they can breed pigeons to pass the message is not clear, but after all, the plain is only a middle county, if there is no such breeder here, then he can only rely on finding this kind of breeder from a metropolis like Yecheng, as long as there are such people, breeding carrier pigeons is the first step.

Similarly, Fu Zhu has prepared for the worst, none of them have experience in breeding carrier pigeons, let alone passing on the book through carrier pigeons, if this is the case, then he can only spend his efforts to find some people from these people to study how to breed carrier pigeons, if the trial can catch Liu Lan's spies and get more details from them, the matter of carrier pigeons will be considered a clue.

"It's up to tomorrow to see the result." He muttered, but heard the door creak and was pushed open, and then a cool voice sounded, and said, "So, what about the headache of the carrier pigeon?" Don't blame me for not reminding you, things look difficult, but you have no contact with this matter before, and you are a layman, so you are so unconfident, but this kind of thing is completely to find someone else to do, farmers, and even Xuzhou internal guards, if they have no way anywhere, then you will have to test yourself to innovate. It's not too late for you to be sad, but now, there's no need for that. ”

The moment the voice of the trial sounded, he raised his head suddenly, but found that the judge not only came uninvited, but also crossed the threshold directly and entered the hall without any concern, and finally did not forget to close the door with his backhand, as if he was entering his own room.

"Why are you here?" Frustrated Professor stood up and hurriedly greeted him.

"It's nothing, I'll talk to you." The relationship between the two of them can't even be said clearly, purely from a political position, they both belong to Hebei scholars, and they once had a honeymoon period, and the relationship is very harmonious, but with the disagreement on the matter of establishing the son, the two have not sat together in private like this.

After all, the contradiction has completely changed from the initial Nanyang and Yingchuan scholars to internal disputes, in the matter of Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang, there were great differences, and in the end it was completely split.

As a result, today because of the birds, the two of them once again had the opportunity to sit together.

The frustrated professor who greeted him let the judge into the room, and after the guest and host sat down, the frustrated professor said: "Come so late, talk to me, I'm afraid it's not so simple, or is it for the carrier pigeon?" ”

"Haha." The judge laughed and teased: "Sure enough, I can't hide anything from you, since you have guessed it, then I won't hide it from you, it's true, coming out of the chamber and going to the wing, all I think about this way is the carrier pigeon, if I don't find someone to talk to, I'm afraid I'll go crazy." “

Fu Zhu smiled slightly, scooped up a bowl of wine, and said: "You are not good at this point, you have to come step by step in everything, you can't be too anxious, otherwise it will only backfire, and the so-called speed will not be achieved." ”

"I understand all of this."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Just when the two were chatting, Gao Ran in the city of drama received bad news one after another, the spies he sent to Langya finally sent back the news, but this news is not good news, according to them, Kaecheng is just one day today, and it took three hours to enter the city from the east gate to the Setshan camp, and the specific number of people and horses is simply countless, anyway, far more than the number of people in the Setshan camp is 50,000, they even suspect that Liu Lan may have transferred the troops of Pei County to Langya.

Such news really makes people feel bad, and the three-hour army is long, how many people do it take, at least seventy or eighty thousand people, right?

He didn't dare to think about it, seventy or eighty thousand people, plus the defenders of Langya, these more than 100,000 people, even if Wen Chou came, they had no chance of winning, let alone them?

However, what really bothered him was that with his arrival, all kinds of riots suddenly came from the counties of Qingzhou for a while, and even the situation of bandits looting the counties and counties, making the counties and counties miserable, for this reason, although Yuan Tan was arrested in the counties of Moling, but the whereabouts of these bandits were uncertain, if the county soldiers were sent in the county, the number of people could still deter them, but if the number was small, they would be attacked.

In desperation, Yuan Tan only seemed to ask Gao Ran for help, hoping that Gao Ran could give him a Jizhou army, not too much, even if it was only 5,000 people.

Yuan Tan didn't dare to say too many numbers, but Gao Ran had to help him, after all, the reason for the current situation was that Gao Ran had requisitioned and transferred all the Jizhou troops in his hands, otherwise, he wouldn't have asked Gao Ran for help in this matter, right?

Yuan Tan's request for help was urgently sent to Xi County, and when Gao Ran saw such a letter, the first thing he thought of was that it was impossible for so many riots to suddenly appear, there must be a reason for this, and the reason was very simple, it must be Liu Lan, and his purpose was obvious, that is, to disrupt all his deployments.

It seems that this matter must be resolved as soon as possible.
