Invincible Three Kingdoms System

Chapter 369
Zhao Qian nodded, and said to Tai Shici beside him: "Ziyi has done a good job, the mental outlook of this army has changed a lot."

Tai Shi Ci quickly clasped his fists and said, "To serve the lord, Ci dare not slack off in the slightest!"

"Boping!" Zhao Qian shouted.

Gao Shun hurriedly came to Zhao Qian, cupped his fists and said, "The last general is here!"

Zhao Qian pointed to the Huaiyang troops in front of him, and said to Tai Shici and Gao Shun: "The [-] Huaiyang troops were successfully attacked by Boping and adapted by Ziyi. I will hand them over to you two." , hope to make good use of it!"

Tai Shici and Gao Shun looked at each other, seeing the expression of joy in each other's eyes, and quickly said: "Thank you, General!"

Zhao Qian nodded, and said: "Since you two are allowed to lead the army, I will give this Huaiyang surrender army a name, let's call it the 'Dispute Army', and crusade against non-officials!"

"Thank you, General, for the name!"

The Huaiyang surrendered army, that is, the sergeants of the rebellious army, thanked them in unison. Since Zhao Qiandu had given them names, it meant that he really accepted them and no longer regarded them as surrendered troops.

Moreover, those generals and schools who were friendly to Yuan Shu in the army have all been controlled now, and those who are now in the top positions are usually severely suppressed.

Therefore, I am very grateful to Zhao Qian for appointing them as new generals. In their hearts, Zhao Qian is naturally more worthy of allegiance.

Afterwards, after a few words of persuasion, Zhao Qian returned to the camp. As for how to distribute the rebellious army, he didn't ask too much. At that time, what he wanted was a loyal and capable army in the matter of Tai Shici and Gao Shun. The winning team.

Back in the army tent, Zhao Qian looked at his subordinates and said with a smile, "Although Lei Bo is broken, Yuan Shu's other armies should not be underestimated!"

Indeed, Lei Bo's army can be regarded as a vanguard army, and the real main force is the [-] troops stationed by Qiao Rui in Runan, which is the main force of Yuan Shu's resistance to Zhao Qian this time.

However, Zhao Qian has an advantage that Yuan Shu cannot match, and that is the collection of intelligence.

The sergeants of Feixun Battalion led by Jing Fei sent back various information from various places in Runan and Shouchun every day.

Including military mobilization, the status of the people, and the status of civil servants and generals, Zhao Qian is not only well aware of it, but at least he can know it well.

On the other hand, Yuan Shu only knew that Zhao Qian led the army to attack, and only knew a few roads that the army must pass, and almost nothing about the others.

Which generals did Zhao Qian bring?How much food and grass did you bring?Where is the food and grass stored?Yuan Shu knew nothing about these.

Xun You nodded, and said: "Pengju's subordinates have heard that Chen Ji has led his army to Shangcai. After hearing that Lei Bo was defeated, he strengthened his defenses day and night, for fear that our army will attack, hehe."

"Then Chen Ji is not very capable, but he is a fine person. His combat mission this time is to intercept our army when we are retreating. Therefore, even if he hears that Lei Bo has been defeated, he will not send troops to rescue him. He just sticks to it. If we don’t come out, we will wait for our army to retreat.” Zhao Qian also said with a smile.

"Oh, Chen Ji really looks down on us!" Zhang Fei said honestly, "Brother, I invite [-] soldiers and horses to go to Shangcai, and I would like to bring the head of Master Chen Jixiang to see Big Brother!"

Zhao Qian nodded. He also wanted to clean up Chen Ji first. Although Chen Ji hadn't come to attack him now, it was not a reassuring thing to put such an uncertain factor behind him.

If he and Qiao Rui were having a good fight, and Chen Ji came from behind, although he wouldn't be able to defeat him, it would still be quite uncomfortable.

Therefore, before entering Yuan Shu's hinterland, this hidden danger must be eliminated.

At this moment, Xun You said: "My lord, if you attack Chen Ji, you must guard against Qiao Rui."

"That's right, Qiao Rui is different from Chen Ji. He is the main force resisting the heavenly army this time. Lei Bo was taken down by us quickly. He didn't have time to react, but Chen Ji was a deep ditch and a high fortress, defending with all his strength. I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to attack in a short time, and Qiao Rui will definitely take this opportunity to attack." Zhao Qian agreed.

Xun You nodded and said, "So, my lord must be on guard."

Zhao Qian thought for a while, stood up, and shouted: "All generals listen to orders!"

"The last general is here!" Several generals stood up and waited for Zhao Qian's arrangement.

"Yide, Meng Qi, you two will go to Shangcai with me to attack Chen Ji!" Zhao Qian said to Zhang Fei and Ma Chao.

"Order!" The two hurriedly accepted the order.

"Zhongkang and Boping! The two of you lead the army and continue to move forward. The speed can be slowed down appropriately. Find a vital place to garrison, and restrain the Qiaorui army from coming to rescue!" Zhao Qian said to Xu Chu and Gao Shun again.

"Decree!" The two had no objection.

"Ziyi, you lead the first army, responsible for the transportation of grain and grass, and the support between the two armies." Zhao Qian ordered Tai Shici again.

Tai Shici clasped his fists and responded, "Decree!"

Watching several generals leave, preparing to send troops, Zhao Qian asked Xun You: "According to Gongda's opinion, how many days will it take for Shangcai and Chenji to be broken?"

Xun You frowned slightly, and said: "Chen Ji has always been timid and cautious. I'm afraid he will only stick to the city. It may not be easy to take it down in a short time."

The corner of Zhao Qian's mouth raised, and he said: "This battle has Yide and Meng Qi personally participating in the battle, and this general is also leading the battle. Could it be that Shang Cailai can't be defeated?"

"My lord's thinking is too simple." Xun You smiled, "Then Chen Ji has [-] soldiers and horses in his hands. If he can't hold on, his defensive power cannot be underestimated."

Of course, Zhao Qian knew this, but he sent Zhang Fei and Ma Chao to attack Shangcai and Chenji this time.
However, Zhao Qian also knew that Xun You's strategy was powerful, since he said so, he must have his reasons.

At that moment, Zhao Qian asked: "But I don't know what kind of strategy Gongda has, so that I can win Shangcai as soon as possible?"

Xun You bowed his hands and said, "It's not a clever plan, but there is a way to defeat the enemy."

"Please tell me the future." Zhao Qian said hastily.

Xun You replied: "Chen Ji's 3 people, if you really want to stick to it, you can't attack by force; however, these 3 people are not only Chen Ji's advantage, but also a place that restricts him."

Zhao Qian frowned, thought for a while, then suddenly realized, and said with a smile: "Gongda's meaning, is it because the [-] army has consumed too much?"

Xun You nodded, and said: "Shangcai is not a big city, and there is not so much grain. To feed an army of [-], grain must be transported here from other places. My lord only needs to find the grain road of Chen Ji, and go to Shangcai on the way." After the city runs out of food, either surrender or go to war, when the time comes, the lord will win."

"Although this plan is good, there is still food in Shangcai city after all, but I don't know when it will be consumed. It is better to attack first. I think that with the courage of Yide and Meng Qi, Shangcai will be captured!" Zhao Qian is confident. Said.
