Although Li Yi's plan is also risky, it is still a big pie that fell from the sky for Zang Ba, Yin Li and Wu Dun, who have been looking for opportunities. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Whether from the perspective of interests or considering the etiquette of master and slave, Zang Ba and others must express their corresponding respect and gratitude as soon as possible.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Zang Ba to rush over with Yin Li and Wu Dun.

Speaking of which, when Zang Ba and Yin Li, Wu Dun and others were both Taishan thieves, they were also sworn brothers, but they went their separate ways.

"The general is polite, I heard that the general intends to use troops in Mount Tai, summon Yu Ba, and prepare to obey orders."

As soon as they met, Zang Ba fell to the ground, and in the Han Dynasty, when kneeling was not popular, this was quite a grand etiquette.

Zang Ba was very respectful, and Li Yi didn't hold it up, so he hurriedly held Zang Ba's arms, and said with a smile: "Chaotic ministers and thieves, all those who are loyal to the Han family can be punished for it, and if they rebel against major events, how can they get General Zang?" However, there are many Cao thieves, although they are frustrated for a while, they must not stop there, and General Zang must be more careful before and after entering the army. ”

Zang Ba Zhengse replied: "The general's good words, Ba dare not forget or forget them." ”

"General Zang is too polite, please." Li Yi said a few more polite words, and then extended the guest with a false hand, and asked Zang Ba to enter the account.

"General, please." Zang Ba didn't dare to slack off, and returned a salute, only then did he lend half a step behind Li Yi and enter together.

The wine and food in the tent have been removed, and a map of Yanzhou was hung next to Li Yi's handsome case, and Li Yi did not invite Zang Ba and the three of them to sit, but pulled Zang Ba directly to the map.

This move is not in line with etiquette, but Zang Ba didn't care, don't say that he just lost the battle, and the strength of his subordinates has been weakened a lot, even when he just led the army to withdraw from the plains, he didn't have the confidence to deal with Li Yi? What's more, his attention was drawn to the map.

This map is not made of the usual sheepskin, but a new white paper from Hebei. The ink was clear, and it was clearly newly painted. The white paper emits a soft glow, which brings the ink to life.

The map is drawn quite finely. Mountains and rivers, city roads, no matter how big or small, are all marked, and there are small characters on the side, indicating the corresponding data, which is breathtaking.

In addition to this, there are many markings on the map, which are colorful and particularly eye-catching.

The most on the picture are red, yellow, green, and black arrows. Zang Ba guessed that these arrows should represent the route of the march, but there are many styles of these arrows, some are hollow, some are painted solid, some are drawn with dotted lines, and many arrows have only a single line behind them, or incoherent dotted lines, which obviously represent some specific meanings.

In addition, in the position of representing the roads of the city. It is also marked with some special symbols, which are divided into several regions by dividing the counties of Henan, Yanqing, and Xu. Zang Ba guessed that this division method should represent the sphere of influence of the princes of the Central Plains.

Shanyang County is located in the south of Yanzhou, bordering Yuzhou Peiguo in the south, Jiyin County and Chenliu County in the west, Dongping Kingdom in the north, and Lu Kingdom in the east. On the map, this large area is marked in dark blue.

Qingzhou, north of the river and east of Mount Tai, is red.

The two counties of Jibei and Taishan County to the north of Dongping Kingdom are at war, and the forces of the two sides are intertwined, so the red and blue dotted lines are used. According to this division method, the two counties were divided into three regions by Li Yi.

The area in the north is the largest, focusing on the county seat of Lu County, the national governance of Jibei, and the land north of Taishan is included along Taishan; The middle one is slightly secondary, focusing on Fenggao City in the middle of Taishan County, which includes a large area of land, including Fenggao City; The southernmost piece is Gaixian to Nanwuyang City.

"The red represents us, the blue represents Cao Cao, the yellow one is Yuan Shao, and the green one is Liu Bei; The arrows represent the route of the march, the different arrows represent the different states before and after the war, and the dotted lines represent the possible directions of the troops......"

Li Yi's detailed explanation came to his ears, and Zang Ba nodded again and again when he heard it, and he was also amazed in his heart. This annotation method is not complicated, but it is concise and intuitive, not only does not require people to bother to recall the battle situation, but can play a prompting role.

Zang Ba has a little more understanding of Li Yi's military literacy, but he feels that just this insight has not come in vain today.

Zang Ba sighed: "There is an old saying: no matter how big or small, there is a reason for heaven and man. The general is invincible in a hundred battles, there are those who do not distinguish the reason, and vainly say that the general is only brave and ruthless, and he won by luck, and when he sees it today, the hegemon knows his big mistake, and the next time he hears it, there are also refuting words. ”

Li Yi laughed and said: "General Zang praised it falsely, it's just a small way to covet convenience, where can I deserve such praise, General Zang said this, but he spoiled me." ”

This thing is not a special invention, it is just a gadget that I was used to seeing in my previous life and made it habitually. No one thought before, it doesn't mean that the ancients were stupid, the map of this era is a precious thing, who is willing to scribble on it?

In fact, this thing has been used in the Northern Xinjiang Army for more than ten years, but outsiders don't know it.

Waving his hand, Li Yi said again: "Cao Cao has currently adopted a strategy of strict defense and death, if our army takes the initiative to attack, it will inevitably become a war of attrition and a tough battle, our army is small and fine, naturally unfavorable, so I plan to do the opposite, not to touch the line of defense first, but to encroach on the land of the two counties of Jibei and Taishan County step by step." To this end, I have divided the two counties into three theaters......"

After explaining in detail, Li Yi concluded: "Cao Cao is arrogant, although he was stunned for a while, but when he comes back to his senses, he should soon start to fight back." No matter which war zone you choose in the end, you can't be careless. ”

"What does the general mean ......" Zang Ba looked up sharply, his eyes full of disbelief.

When Li Yi explained, he had already guessed, but after all, he still didn't believe that happiness would come so suddenly. A war zone is the land of half a county, and it is the place where the elite of Yanzhou is located. What's more, according to Li Yi's policy, he can attack those powerful people, and the resulting notoriety can be pushed to Li Yi.

If it goes well, he will soon be able to gather enough money and food.

As for the risks that Li Yi has always emphasized, Zang Ba and others just take it as a breeze for the ears. Of course, there will be risks in fighting, and if there is a risk, you will retreat, so who else will fight for the world?

What's more, Cao Cao at this time has been beaten dizzy, even if he has a good face, the Yanzhou army, which has suffered heavy casualties, will not be able to launch a counterattack for a while, even if there is a big war, it should be next year. With this year, even if I can't completely gain a foothold, I can still build a reliable force.

Li Yi said with a smile: "My troops can't move lightly for the time being, and now there are only three people who can do these things, and I hope that the three of them will not refuse." ”

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be." Zang Ba thanked him, but his mind had already followed the map and flew to the land of Yanzhou.

When Li Yi explained, Zang Ba had already begun to analyze.

Now, Cao Cao's main forces have been restrained by the Northern Xinjiang Army, and there are not many troops left to guard various places.

Thinking of this, Zang Ba made up his mind, and he decided to choose the northern area of Taishan County and Jibei Kingdom in the north.

Zang Ba is the strongest and the eldest brother, so Yin Li and Wu Dun naturally don't dare to compete with him.

After Zang Ba made his choice, Wu Dun chose the southern region. Although the territory and population here are smaller, after all, the terrain is dangerous, and it is far away from Li Yi, so it will not be constrained too much by Li Yi. Of course, the danger here is also greater, because to the south is Liu Bei. However, considering that Liu Bei is now at war with Yuan Shu in the south, fighting for the Xiapi Kingdom and Guangling County in Xuzhou, he should not have much strength to manage here. What's more, Wu Dun has traveled in this area before, and he is relatively familiar with the terrain.

Yin Li, on the other hand, chose the central region, which is the elite land of Taishan County and the populous Levan Plain. Moreover, Li Yi is leading a large army to besiege Fenggaocheng, and he may get Li Yi's support at any time.

Thanking Li Yi again, Zang Ba and the three of them left the Chinese army, lit up their soldiers and horses, mixed in the rolling crowd, and galloped away in different directions.

This all-out war on the land of the Central Plains began.

After the battle line was opened, Fenggaocheng, a small place, soon became the busiest place in the Central Plains and even in the world. The rides are constantly shuttling back and forth. Information from all over the Central Plains, and even the world, has been sent here in a steady stream. Every piece of information received. Li Yi's already complicated map would add a few more strokes, and it would soon become messy.

"Enlightened Lord, three days ago. Lu County has fallen, Shouzhang Shou will be shaken, although he did not send troops to rescue, but sent a thousand soldiers and horses to reinforce the northern country of Jibei, Zang Ba asked for instructions, whether to continue to go west......"

"General Wu Dun conquered Liaocheng yesterday and completely annihilated the defenders of Wuyang City in the south, and the generals of the Cao army stationed in Lu did not dare to move lightly......"

……

The battle is going well, all fronts are advancing with great triumph, and according to this situation, it will soon be able to advance to the expected position. But Li Yi's expression was very solemn, and if he didn't know, he thought that the battle situation was already in jeopardy.

Xu Shu, who was accompanying him, asked, "What is the lord worried about?" ”

Li Yi frowned and stared at the map, and said without looking back: "I always feel that something is wrong, Cao Cao's resistance is too weak." ”

In addition to Xiahoudun's division of troops to reinforce Jibei, Cao Cao's local guards all put on a posture of holding their heads and being beaten, as long as the coalition forces did not attack their heads, they turned a blind eye to the surrounding situation, and had no intention of rescuing each other at all.

The situation was already unfavorable, and if it was broken by the coalition forces individually, the battle situation naturally deteriorated. (To be continued.) )
