When the sunset was picturesque, Xun Yu returned to Lu Ren's office with his hands behind his back and humming a song. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info seeing that Xun Yu, who has always been old and calm, is now this virtue, Lu Ren knows how things are going with his toes.

In fact, Cao Zhang can't be said to be unconvinced by Lu Lingqi, but should be unwilling. Being unconvinced and unwilling are actually two different things. Now that Xun Yu has come out to play a round game, and then enlighten Cao Zhang as an elder, the matter will almost be done.

By the way, don't look at Xun Yu has been away from Cao Ying for seven or eight years, but Xun Yu still has a lot of prestige in the hearts of many people in Cao Ying. Especially for goods like Cao Zhang, Xun Yu has helped Lao Cao sit in the base camp for many years, and small characters like Cao Zhang have to be respectful and obedient when they see Xun Yu.

These are no longer too much to talk about, just say that after Cao Zhang, Lu Ren made the following arrangements:

The Liaozhou side will reinforce the Jinyang front line in three parts, the combination of Lü Lingqi and Chen Gong is the Chinese army, the combination of Sun Shangxiang and Zhou Yu, and the combination of Cao Zhang and Tian Chou are the left and right wings. And Lu Ren will pull Tian Chou, mainly because he is worried that Cao Zhang, this kid, will not be able to hold back his temper, so he has to have someone in the middle to help slow down. In addition, Cao Zhang's temperament is too anxious, so it is better to have a calm Tian Chou to stare at Cao Zhang.

Similarly, arranging for Chen Gong to follow Lu Lingqi's side also had similar intentions. On the other hand, Zhou Yu is not a fuel-efficient lamp, there is no highly resourceful character to help Lu Lingqi keep an eye on, God knows if Zhou Yu will play some tricks to sell Lu Lingqi and Cao Zhang. In terms of hard strategy, Chen Gong may not be as good as Zhou Yu, but if he just makes corresponding adjustments and precautions, Lu Ren believes that Chen Gong should have no problem.

In terms of staying behind, Chen Gong followed Lu Lingqi on the expedition, so the person in charge of Liaoxi and Liaodong was replaced by Liu Ye, and at the same time, it was further determined that the new governance office of the entire Liaozhou would be Shenyang. In other words, Lu Ren was implementing the strategic deployment of completely merging Liaoxi and Liaodong into a complete Liaozhou. Don't think this is nonsense, in fact, Liaoxi and Liaodong in the Han Dynasty had a feeling of "separating the family", and Lu Ren just wanted to erase this state of "separating the family".

Of course, the meal has to be eaten bite by bite, and the road has to be walked step by step, and Lu Ren is not in a hurry. Therefore, Jinzhou in western Liaoning is still in charge of Tuoba Yu and Murong Ziying, Xiangping in eastern Liaoning is in charge of Deng Ai, and Jinzhou and Xiangping are to ensure all aspects of Shenyang City's needs at the same time. Let's put it this way, the next Jinzhou and Xiangping are a bit like satellite cities of Shenyang. Under such a pattern, I believe that as long as the time is a little longer, Shenyang will naturally become the core of Liaozhou.

At this time, the time has entered February of the twenty-sixth year of Jian'an...... In the original history, there was no Jian'an for 26 years, because in the 25th year of Jian'an, the emperor Liu Xiechan was given to Cao Pi, and the Eastern Han Dynasty officially perished. But now, because of that series of changes, Lao Cao and Xiao Cao didn't even get their hands on the prince, and the Eastern Han Dynasty was preserved because of this.

This matter may not be much to others, but to Lu Ren...... Lu Ren could only be secretly funny. Think back to what kind of little role you were when you first crossed over? But for more than 20 years...... No, it's been almost 30 years, and I have finally influenced a relatively large historical process, is this a kind of success and pride?

Regardless of this, at the beginning of February, Lu Ren sent Lu Lingqi and Cao Zhang onto the ship to Liaoxi, and at the same time asked them to complete the preparations for the expedition in Liaoxi in two to three months. If everything goes well, let Lu Lingqi send troops in May and June.

Some people may say how the war dragged on for so long. In fact, it's not a long time, you must know that Lao Cao's death has only been a little over a year now, and the Xiongnu and the three-ethnic alliance army that invaded Liaoxi only received the news and took action two or three months after Lao Cao's death, in other words, these guys took action probably after the autumn of the twenty-fifth year of Jian'an.

Among them, the Xiongnu side was still worried at that time and held a wait-and-see attitude, so it was not active in action, so the action was relatively fast, but it was the three-ethnic alliance army that invaded Liaoxi. Then at the end of the twenty-fifth year of Jian'an, after Lu Ren completely defeated the alliance of the three tribes, he spread the news vigorously, and after it reached the Xiongnu side, it also further affected the mentality of the Xiongnu side, making them hesitate a little more about whether to go south, and the action was slower under this hesitation.

There was no major movement on the Huns' side, only some small-scale harassment battles, which needless to mention. On the contrary, it was on the side of the Western Regions Alliance, although they also received the news of the defeat of the Three Clans Alliance in Liaoxi, but it did not have much impact on them.

On the other hand, the Western Regions Coalition Army invaded Liangzhou in the twenty-fourth year of Jian'an, taking advantage of the battle between Lao Cao and Liu Bei in Hanzhong, and took several important towns in the west of Liangzhou in one fell swoop. Having taken the town, they took the bridgehead; seized Lao Cao's grain stockpile, so that they got relatively sufficient provisions. With these two points, the Western Regions Alliance Army has the ability to fight in Liangzhou for a long time.

Moreover, these Western Regions coalition forces also took advantage of the contradictions between the Cao and Liu families as much as possible, which can be seen from the fact that they first intended to unite Liu Bei at the beginning, and then intended to unite Lao Cao. And after that, although Lao Cao and Liu Bei both expressed the intention that they should work together to resist foreign enemies, who can guarantee that Cao and Liu will fully cooperate? Which one will have a little ninety-nine in his heart? And these little Jiujiu between Cao and Liu naturally became the objects that could be used by the Western Regions Alliance.

Because of this, the war in Liangzhou was always stopped, stopped, and a year passed in a flash. And this situation, Zhao Yu explained to Lu Ren in the telegram more than once, and Lu Ren was helpless about it. To put it mildly, even if Lu Ren has the ability, can he let Lao Cao Xiaocao and Liu Bei go all out to kill the Western Regions Alliance? This is obviously not a realistic thing, okay?

Now in the spring of February, the fighting that had been suspended due to heavy winter snow is still being fought. However, this time the situation seems to be better, because Cao Pi has spent more than half a year making his throne much more secure, so that he can devote a lot of energy to foreign operations. And Cao Pi should be said to have listened to Lao Cao's words at this point, and after pulling out his hand, he intensified his attack on the Western Regions Alliance, with the intention of stimulating Liu Bei to hurry up his efforts, otherwise several territories in Liangzhou would not have Liu Bei's share. Of course, at this time, Cao Pi was only making preparations, but the news had already spread.

Liu Bei received the news, and Lu Ren also received the news. What Lao Cao left to Cao Pi, Lu Ren didn't know, but for Lu Ren, Cao Pi increased his attack after stabilizing the throne, one is that he can understand some of Cao Pi's difficulties, and the other is that he can see Cao Pi acting like this, which can be regarded as a little peace of mind.

By mid-February, after Lü Lingqi and Cao Chang had arrived in western Liaoning and began preparations for the expedition, Lu Ren ordered Gan Ning's First Fleet and Huang Zhong's Second Fleet to return to Yizhou. Now that there is no problem on the Liaozhou side, Lu Ren will let Gan Ning and Huang Zhong continue to prepare for the voyage and battle. When Shirley came back from Kushan, there was nothing wrong with what she heard...... Well, if you don't agree with each other, you will start fighting! Knocking out the problem of Guishan from the sea route is likely to mean that the coalition forces of the 36 countries in the Western Regions will lose their support from the rear, and if nothing else, they can directly force the Western Regions coalition forces to retreat. This is the judgment made by Lu Ren.

Time passed day by day, and during this time, except for some skirmishes on the Liangzhou side, there was no big news reaching Lu Ren's ears. Until this day, Shirley finally returned......

"What do you say? There seems to be something wrong with Kushan's royal family? Probably also related to rest? ”

These were the words that Lu Ren asked in amazement after listening to the information reported by Shirley.

Shirley nodded. This time, Shirley went for more than two months, collecting as much information as possible in Guishan. According to the information collected by Shirley, two or three years ago, the rest side sent an envoy to Guishan, and after the two sides didn't know what to talk about, Guishan began to unite the countries of the Western Regions, which should be preparing to invade Liangzhou in Dahan.

According to some "grapevine", the high-level nobles of Guishan originally did not approve of the invasion of Liangzhou, but they did not know what they had done, and almost overnight, the attitude of those high-level nobles who did not agree with the invasion of Liangzhou had a 180-degree change, and they were almost fanatical about attacking Liangzhou and entering China.

And then, the rest side gave a lot of economic and military support to the Guishan, and the Guishan side took the money, grain, and ordnance and then distributed it to the 36 countries of the Western Regions, including the "primary artillery" used by the Western Regions Alliance when they invaded Liangzhou. In other words, Kushan himself did not have artillery, and all the artillery used was given in peace!

After hearing the news, Shirley immediately collected as much information as possible about Sabbath, but because the time was too tight, Shirley did not collect much, but she collected information that Sherry had used artillery in the counterinsurgency battle. At this time, Shirley was taken aback and didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly came back to report to Lu Ren. Because in terms of time, it was at least four or five years ago that Rest had artillery, and with these four or five years, what would be the situation in terms of Rest?

At this time, Lu Ren was also stunned, and his first feeling was that the artillery technology he had here had been stolen so early?

Then Shirley also told a "grapevine", that is, it is said that after the meeting between Anshan and Kushan, in addition to preparing for those wars, those large and small nobles run to Shashan in batches every few months, and when they go to meet the Queen Regent who rests, they all adhere to the courtier's etiquette...... Guishan and Anxi's national strength are equal, to be precise, Anshan has entered a period of decline in this period, but Guishan is at the peak of national power, even if Anshan has a regent queen who has emerged, but in terms of comprehensive national strength, Anshan has no ability to make Guishan so subjugated, which is obviously unreasonable.
