Chapter Seventy-Nine: Plotting Nonsense

"Yan can't take you in. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 After being silent for a long time, Yan Bei made a difficult decision in front of Luo Shi's hot eyes and said, "But maybe I can help you a little." ”

He couldn't contain Zhang Yan and his subordinates, there were too many of them, and they couldn't afford it at all. Liaodong County can't afford to support more people, even the tens of thousands of displaced people who have moved away recently have made Liaodong County's already abundant food once again show a crisis, and Zhang Yan's subordinates are gathered, almost without thinking, their food will be eaten up this winter.

By next year, Liaodong County will be in chaos.

Another problem is Yanbei's troops. The subordinates of the captain of the Wuhuan school have only one school captain department in the standing position, and the previous school captain department of the Wuhuan school has only maintained a standing army of 2,000 at most. When he arrived in Yanbei to serve as the captain of Wuhuan, the precedent had been broken.

The original intention of Liu Yu and the state government was actually like using no grain and grass and no official salaries to force Yanbei to disperse his troops and keep the troops within the controllable range of the state capital. After all, there are only a few standing troops in the entire Youzhou, and after the Erzhang Rebellion, Youzhou has been battered with holes, and the standing force has been maintained at more than 10,000.

There are more than 10,000 county soldiers in the entire state, and a Liaodong county in Yanbei has four captains and two captains, and the number of heavy soldiers and field soldiers together has exceeded 10,000. In the entire Youzhou, except for the powerful soldiers, there are only three parties who really have power and horses, and they are equipped with bows and crossbows.

In the state capital, the county captains, school captains, and soldiers are engaged in more than 10,000 county soldiers.

Gongsun Zhan, the general of Fenwu, after the soldiers and horses were scattered by Yanbei, there were only 3,000 white horse troops.

Yanbei, four captains, two county captains, nearly 20,000 brave people under his command!

This kind of force ratio is not suitable at all, and it is not conducive to the long-term development of Youzhou. If it weren't for Liu Yu Huairou, who was worried that Yan Bei's new attachment would order him to cut off the soldiers, he would not be disliked, and Yan Bei's subordinates would definitely not have such a huge force now.

The greater the control of the forces, the greater the danger.

Even if Liu Yu never explicitly asked Yanbei to cut soldiers and horses, he could secretly take money and grain, or this southern expedition...... Yan Bei knew in his heart that it was difficult for the state capital not to be afraid of him as a behemoth based in Liaodong.

The ancients said that the three of them became tigers, but now Liu Yu is beside him and says bad things about him, are there only three people?

Far more than that, even if he Yanbei is a white lotus, it is also said to be black. Moreover, he is not white, but black.

Yanbei doesn't have much political acumen, although he is not full of killing, but he doesn't know much about the operation procedures of the state capital, but he understands people's hearts. He has seen too many of them in the past twenty-two years, living and dead...... There are many reasons why people live well, but the reasons for those who die are roughly the same.

It is nothing more than blocking the way of others and moving other people's wealth.

Isn't Yan doing less of this kind of thing? There are not many people in the whole north who want to kill him!

Liu Yu's rebuke to him in the letter, now he can laugh it off, at least Liu Yu scolded him unpretentiously. Turning back and waiting for him to ride Ma Ji County, he bowed his head to Liu Yu and pleaded guilty, in the end, he still made meritorious contributions, this was just a pimple in his heart, and it couldn't hurt his roots.

But since it's a knot, it's hard to get rid of it.

This jealousy will always remain in Liu Yu's heart, more or less, Yanbei has his own plans.

At this time, if he collected Zhang Yan's 50,000 people from Montenegro...... Back in Youzhou, either he dies or Liu Yu dies.

There is no second way.

Liu Bo'an was the one who gave him and his brothers a new lease of life, and although killing a Zhang Ju made his conscience uneasy, he could be tolerated by his brothers. If you kill Liu Yu? Heh, he Yanbei is an irreredeemable person, not to mention anything else, his control over Liaodong will be reduced to a minimum.

People will no longer believe him, and he, the leader, will become someone who can be betrayed by others instead of being unreasonable, because he is a man of no way!

What's more, the morality in his heart will not allow him to point the butcher knife at Liu Yu.

Luo Shi's face flashed with defeat, Tai Shici was also stunned, and nodded secretly in an instant, he could understand Yan Bei's distress.

"Yan has two ways to send to General Zhang, these two roads will eventually return to Montenegro, but one is to lose everything, you may return to the past, hunger and cold, many people will die silently in Montenegro. The other is much more difficult, but once it happens, General Zhang may be able to get more than he is now, even in Montenegro. Yan Bei put himself in Zhang Yan's position, said two directions equivalent to Shangjia taking risks, and said to Luo Shi: "But I don't know which way your general wants to choose." ”

Luo Shi was rejected by Yanbei, and his heart was full of bitterness. They have become like this, even if they give away their soldiers and horses, they will be rejected. Except for Yanbei, they couldn't think of anyone else in this world who could accept them...... Zhang Yan thinks that this raid on the county is a mistake at all, and they have already tasted the bitter fruit.

The once poor but powerful Montenegro was torn apart by the wealth outside, and became a thief who could be bullied by others at will, and was defeated one by one. Externally, there are Yanbei, Yuan Shao, Gongsun Zhan, and Dong Zhuobu Hu Zhen of Yanbei, the third prince of the fourth world, which of these people will not shake the world when they say it? But now these people are sending troops to attack them.

They are not an army of hundreds of thousands, but a bunch of fish on a chopping block!

Seeing that there was nothing to do, Mayor Luo sighed, he had already planned to say goodbye to Yanbei, but when he heard Yanbei's words, his heart was a little excited again, and he bowed down to the ground and asked respectfully: "I beg the general to show the way!" ”

"The first way, naturally, is to withdraw to Montenegro, you can't get anything, in the face of the situation of enemies on all sides, even General Zhang's talents can't find a way out. The second is to spare no effort to defeat Hu Zhen, and I will ask the court to surrender on your behalf. ”

Luo Shi originally thought that Yan Bei would say something, but when he heard this plan, he couldn't help but sigh and said: "General Yan, the matter of asking the court to surrender has also been thought about by my general. Since I waited for the mountain, General Zhang asked the court to surrender, but unexpectedly, the first emperor died, the court was in chaos, and no one paid attention to us at all. It was precisely because of this failure that General Zhang's prestige plummeted, causing all parts to fall apart...... What's more, defeating Hu Zhen is not easy. ”

Yanbei didn't know that if there was no him in this world, the people of Montenegro would send troops to Jizhou a few months earlier, and they would surrender before the death of the first emperor.

"This time, that time. At that time, the court was chaotic and no one paid attention to you and others, but now it is different. Now that the imperial court is in the hands of the warriors, if General Zhang can show his skills and defeat Hu Zhen, he may be able to win Dong Zhuo's approval. Yan Bei was sure to win this, he clearly knew that if Dong Zhuo wanted the situation to be stable, the surrender of hundreds of thousands of Qianshou and nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses in the huge Montenegro would increase his prestige, so he said: "What is General Zhang's control over the people of Montenegro now, can he unite all the troops to fight Hu Zhen again?" ”

Zhao Yun, Tai Shici, and Jiao Touch were all wide-eyed when they heard it...... General Yan, you are the captain of the imperial court! After all, isn't Hu Zhen also a member of the imperial court, is he just helping outsiders plan how to beat his own people?

Excessive, right?

"Those who are still loyal to General Zhang are only Bai Huan, Bai Cai, Huang Long, etc., with about 50,000 soldiers and horses."

"It's enough, if 50,000 people can't beat Hu Zhen." Yan Bei smiled contemptuously, Hu Zhen is only 5,000 soldiers and horses, and if ten times the number of people can't defeat Hu Zhen, then no matter how much you plan, it's useless. Yan Bei turned his head to focus and said, "Take the topographic map of Jizhou." Where did Hu Zhen come from? ”

Jiao Touch took the map and laid it in the middle of the military tent, Zhao Yun was noncommittal on this matter, he felt that Yanbei was choosing between Hu Zhen's soldiers and horses and hundreds of thousands of people in Montenegro. Tai Shi Ci was a little at a loss, he did achieve his mission, but he didn't expect things to evolve like this...... General Yan wants to help Zhang Yan of Montenegro plan to defeat Hu Zhen's soldiers and horses?

Luo Shidu couldn't react anymore, and said cowardly: "From Hanoi, there is a stalemate between the big rivers. ”

The so-called big river refers to the Yellow River.

Yan Bei nodded, pointed along the line and said, "Skirmishers, let Hu Zhen in, cut off his grain and grass...... He must know the combat strength of the people of Montenegro, if you pretend to be defeated and he can't detect it, put it under Yecheng, send a strong army to cut off the river, two hundred miles of grain is enough for you to do something, under Yecheng, surrounded on all sides, he can't escape. But this kind of thing is too difficult for you, and a feigned rout will become a real defeat. ”

Yan Bei scratched his nose with some distress, "Look at your luck, you can't give him the city, choose an official road that leads directly to Yecheng, and also, you must not kill Jizhou Mu Hanfu and Hu Zhen, you must be captured alive, otherwise no one can bypass you." The lives of hundreds of thousands of Montenegro are in your own hands. ”

"If this thing is done, I will lead the army south to force to Yecheng, and then let General Zhang and me pretend to be enemies, and threaten me with the lives of Han Fu and Hu Zhen, and I will make a table for you." Yan Bei frowned, "This matter is eighty percent certain." ”

Yan Bei didn't need to worry much about this matter, he only needed to worry about the trust between Zhang Yan and him.

But for the people of Montenegro?

It was very difficult for them to do so, even though they had 50,000 soldiers.

The so-called enemy knows the enemy best, and Yanbei is very clear about the combat strength of the Montenegrin Army, and it is extremely fragile. However, he then remembered that he had not taken Wei County, and asked Luo Shi: "General Zhang occupies Wei County, so he should get a lot of armor, right?" ”

All the armor in the northern part of Jizhou was looted by him, but Wei County, Bohai County, and Qinghe Kingdom, these three places were not involved in the soldiers and horses of his subordinates. Now Bohai is obtained by Yuan Shao, and Wei County and Qinghe are obtained by Zhang Yan...... The sergeants of the Montenegrin Army are still very powerful, but they don't have armor, and now Zhang Yan should have a soldier in armor in his hands, but I don't know how many.

Seeing Luo Shi nodding, Yan Bei took a deep breath and said, "It's up to you to do this." told General Zhang that Yan was no longer the Yellow Turban Yu Party, and he was not planning to help him, but just to let Jizhou return to stability as soon as possible. If this can be done, the people of Taihang Eight Paths will want General Zhang to treat him like a parent, and be respectful. Otherwise, Yan will give up his life and slaughter you! ”
