Lord of the Gaming World Chapter 194: Family Choice
In Xiapi City, Xuzhou, the prefect Tao Qian received an order from the Han court. The Han court, which was supported by Yuan Shao, requested all troops and horses to go to King Qin of Luoyang to prevent Dong Zhuo from entering the capital.
Tao Qian, the prefect of Xuzhou, was one of the most powerful princes. Xuzhou suffered relatively small losses during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and Tao Qian's strength did not suffer much. However, not long ago, the 50,000 Xuzhou elite soldiers led by Cao Bao and Mi Fang were ambushed and defeated by Dorgon in Beihai Kingdom, and only brought back more than 10,000 people, which troubled Tao Qian.
He brought in Wang Lang, a general manager of governance, Zhao Yu, and Cao Bao, a subordinate, to discuss how to deal with the dispute between Dong Zhuo and Yuan Shao, as well as the threat of Chutian in Langya.
Langya is located in the northern part of Xuzhou. After the threat of the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou was lifted, Chutian, who was guarding the northern gate of Xuzhou, became Tao Qian's confidant again.
"The Prime Minister of Langya plundered 800,000 Yellow Turban thieves from Qingzhou and placed them in Kaiyang and Juxian areas. If he is allowed to go on, he may go south with 800,000 Yellow Turbans and covet the whole of Xuzhou. Your Excellency must be on guard."
Cao Bao told Tao Qian in detail about the suppression of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army, especially because Mi Fang and Chu Tian had a close relationship, which made Tao Qian frown.
"Nowadays the world is in great chaos, and the generals under the Prime Minister of Langya are extremely brave, and even the Yellow Turban Army that swept Qingzhou was defeated by him. How should I guard against him?"
Tao Qian thought that only Mi Fang and Cao Bao used his generals. Compared with Chutian's generals, they were not at the same level.
Chutian could plunder 800,000 Yellow Turbans with less than 50,000 people, but Mi Fang and Cao Bao were defeated by Dorgon with 50,000 people. No matter how mediocre Tao Qian was, he realized the difference.
There is also the Mi family with an ambiguous attitude.
Cao Bao saw that Tao Qian had a worried look on his eyebrows, and probably knew that Tao Qian was taking precautions against Chutian, so he said: "I will return from Beihai Kingdom at the end of the day, and I am trying to find a way to curb the development momentum of Langya Kingdom. Is there anything in our Cao family? One of the young disciples, one of the strangers, believes that Chu Tian, the prime minister of Langya State, will definitely lead his elite divisions to attack Dong Zhuo. As long as you do not join the Kwantung Allied Army, concentrate your elite troops, and lead your troops to attack Langya State from the last general, you can take advantage of the vacancy. Enter and go straight to Xiacheng."
Tao Qian listened to Cao Bao's advice and found out that it was an immoral conspiracy, so he couldn't help but hesitate.
Chu Tian led his elite divisions to attack Dong Zhuo and save the Han family from the fire. If he took this opportunity to attack Langya from Xiapi and Donghai, it would not be too unkind.
Engaged Wang Lang said: "Your Excellency, it is absolutely impossible. All governors and prefects should work together to help the Han family. Langya is a subordinate of Your Excellency, so how can we fight for profit?"
Don't drive Zhao Yu to shake his head as well.
Tao Qian dismissed two of his subordinates, leaving Cao Bao alone: "Wang Lang and Zhao Yu are famous scholars, but they are not familiar with the art of war, so it is useless to discuss with them. You present in detail your plan for a surprise attack on Langya."
Cao Bao said: "Sir, you can gradually add troops and horses to Tanxian County, so that the number of troops and horses in Tanxian County can reach 50,000 people. If the snow is flying, the last general will lead 50,000 troops and horses out of Tanxian County and force an army of 200 miles, within three days. You can reach the bottom of Xiacheng, and you can break the city in five days!"
Tao Qian has no confidence in Cao Bao: "How can you be the opponent of everyone in Langya? Mi Fang and Chu Tian are too close, so you can't take a heavy responsibility."
"Your Excellency can secretly contact the lords of Donghai, Pengcheng, and Xiapi, and jointly divide up Langya. The general thinks that they will definitely participate in the operation."
"Let me think about..."
Tao Qian closed his eyes and rested his mind. Chu Tian secretly contacted Xuzhou's aristocratic families, which seriously affected his status in Xuzhou.
Chu Tian is considering who to attack Dong Zhuo and who to stay in Langya.
There are hundreds of prefectures in the Eastern Han District, and Chutian controls a prefecture and is qualified to be called a prince. After the family business is big, he can't leave only a small number of people to look after the family as before.
This time, the system will no longer provide protection to the lord's territory during the crusade against Dong Zhuo.
The defense area of Langya Kingdom consists of three places, Kaiyang County in the south, Ju County in the middle, and various counties in the north. In other words, Chutian had to keep at least three guards.
Xihai County, which is located by the Yellow Sea, is difficult to control due to its remoteness and requires a garrison.
"Xu Sheng and Liu Sandao coordinated the defense of the southern regions such as Xiacheng, Langya City, and Liangshan Town, Xue Yue, Sun Kang, Wu Dun coordinated the defense of the central region such as Ju County, Xue Yue City, Yangdu County, etc. Zang Ba , Sun Guan to coordinate the defense of the northern regions such as counties and Dongwu County. Yin Li guards Xihai County.”
After Chutian has the characteristic "Great Teacher", the Taishan Bandit is more loyal to Chutian, and Chutian can safely use the Taishan Bandit as a general to guard the house.
The most important Xiacheng was handed over to Xu Sheng for defense.
Although the generals Chutian used to defend the city were the second-tier generals of Langya Kingdom, as long as they could not defend themselves, they would be enough to stop the offensive of the first-rate generals.
The threat to the south came from Tao Qian of Xiapi and Tanxian.
Chutian is not very afraid of Tao Qian. Tao Qian lacks famous generals.
The threat to the north comes from the North Sea Kingdom's Zhao Gongzi and Kong Rong. They have two fierce generals, Taishi Ci and Xue Wanche. In Chu Tian's eyes, they are a bigger threat than Tao Qian.
However, Zhao Gongzi's main force is besieging Dorgon, Guan Hai, and Wu Sangui. It is estimated that he will not be able to participate in the crusade against Dong Zhuo. Otherwise, once Dorgon is allowed to counterattack, Beihai Kingdom will fall again.
In this way, Mr. Zhao's threat is not too big.
Another threat is the great lords of Taishan County, Donghai County, Xiapi Country, and Pengcheng Country.
"Only bring 20,000 people to crusade against Dong Zhuo, and another 30,000 to defend the city. At the same time, 10,000 Qingzhou troops are recruited. When the crusade against Dong Zhuo is over, and then the Qingzhou army is disbanded, the financial burden will not be too large."
Chu Tian was careful, but he kept his hand. He temporarily selected elites from the 800,000 Yellow Turban refugees and recruited 10,000 Qingzhou troops to assist in defending the city.
"My lord, four hundred light cavalry horses from Youzhou have arrived, spending a total of 29,121 taels of silver."
"Got it."
Chutian purchased high-quality war horses to supplement the loss of high-level cavalry, while expanding the scale of high-level cavalry.
The suppression of the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans resulted in dozens of high-level cavalry casualties.
If the high-level cavalry dies in battle and the warhorse is still alive, then you need to re-select a suitable source of troops and spend two months recruiting a new Iron Eagle Scout or a Datang Cavalry Archer (level 10).
If the warhorse dies and the high-ranking cavalry survives, you only need to change to a new warhorse, and the level will not be affected in any way.
It's hard to say whether the horse is more important or the cavalry is more important...
Cavalry can be recruited again, but recruits are recruits, not the original veterans.
Chutian expanded the high-level cavalry of Hua Mulan, Xue Rengui, and Li Guang to 300 cavalry each to perform special tasks, such as detouring, attacking the opponent's flank, cutting the opponent's food supply, and destroying the opponent's morale.
"There are also 150 heavy cavalry horses from Liangzhou to form a heavy cavalry squad. With the existing heavy cavalry, you will have a heavy cavalry squad of 300 people. The heavy cavalry's armor and horses The armor is being produced in Shangbi Town. The armor used by the heavy cavalry includes armor skirts, armor sleeves, etc., and the armor is still used, but the price is several times that of the ordinary light cavalry and infantry. There are 210 horse lances, and 190 horse lances are in production, and it is expected that they will all be put into storage before December. Among them, 300 will be placed in the heavy cavalry squad, and 100 will remain in the warehouse as supplies or later. Expand the use of heavy cavalry."
"So far, 5,000 silver-level ordinary Tang Dao have been produced, and the light cavalry is the priority, followed by the Xiliu Ying, and then the ordinary soldiers."
"Zhemu composite bows are gold-level, and they require additional materials and are expensive to manufacture. They are only equipped with a sound-shooting battalion. Xuzhou archers and Qingzhou archers are equipped with silver-level ordinary compound bows, and city defense archers are equipped with bronze-level bows. A single wooden bow...".
Each type of equipment costs at least 1,000 taels of silver.
Horses, lances, Tang swords, composite bows, heavy cavalry armor (cavalry and warhorses)... and stirrups, reins, shields, military boots, spears, knives, arrows, cotton coats, quilts, Tent, iron pot...
Xia Xia Liang reported to Chutian the preparation of hundreds of strategic materials.
Chutian is already familiar with all kinds of materials, so it sounds effortless. The only thing that hurts is Bai Huahua's silver.
More than half of Langya State's fiscal revenue is used to expand the army and rectify its armaments. This is a troubled time, and everything is given priority to supplying the army to ensure sufficient military virtue. Farming and doing business are just to get money and food for the army.
After the world is at peace, military spending will gradually decline.
"Has Zhao Yun been loyal to me recently?"
"Sorry, I don't see any such tendency."
"This time, I intend to use human favors to invite Zhao Yun to join the expedition to Hulao Pass. Only by returning him to the battlefield will the idea of re-emerging will arise."
Chu Tian knew that Zhao Yun would be unwilling to be lonely.
Chu Tian didn't believe that the five tiger generals wanted to disarm and return to the field. Zhao Yun has been serving Shu Han until his old age, working hard without complaining. Like Xue Rengui, he is a military general who can be used for decades.
"Aren't you afraid that Zhao Yun will leave after repaying his kindness? Or maybe he met Liu Bei because he got along well with Liu Bei, and was then abducted by Liu Bei? At the beginning, Zhao Yun worked under Gongsun Zan, but later he joined Liu Bei."
"That's because Gongsun Zan was destroyed by Yuan Shao, and Zhao Yun has friendship with Liu Bei. So far, Zhao Yun and Liu Bei have not had any intersection. If Zhao Yun leaves with Liu Bei as soon as they meet, then I have nothing to say... ...and I have Xue Rengui here."
"Do you think Xue Rengui can keep Zhao Yun?"
"Don't underestimate the life-and-death relationship between military generals. The death of a scholar for a confidant is not just a talk. Although most people put their interests first, some people still pay attention to loyalty. Xue Rengui asked Zhao Yun to participate in the crusade against Dong Zhuo. war."
In order to subdue Zhao Yun, Chu Tian decided to take an adventure and used his kindness to Zhao Yun to invite him out of the mountains to participate in the battle of Hulao Pass.
Xue Rengui was called over by Chutian. Chutian's order was very simple. He gave Xue Rengui 5 taels of silver, and asked him to get Zhao Yun drunk, so that Zhao Yun agreed to follow Chutian to join the Kwantung coalition.
Xue Rengui intended to join forces with Zhao Yun to command the cavalry to kill the enemy, so he agreed.
So Xue Rengui came to Zhao Yun with a few pots of wine...
"Why are the soldiers and horses in the city moving so frequently?"
The female military general who finally bought an ordinary house in Xiacheng, where the land price is still high, sees soldiers and horses coming and going in and out of the city from time to time, so she finds someone to inquire.
"Dong Zhuo, the general of the broken army, and Yuan Shao, the commander of Sili, were fighting in the area of Hangu Pass. The commander of Sili called on all the troops to enter King Qin of Luoyang. Our lord is expected to send troops soon."
"The Prime Minister of Langya is planning to go to Luoyang?"
"Most of it is. Our Prime Minister of Langya has a righteousness, subduing the Taishan thieves, suppressing the Yellow Turban thieves, killing the Yellow Turban army commander Zhang Kai, and the leader of the Yellow Turban thieves Zhang Liang, throwing our heads and blood for the court, now the emperor is in trouble, Why not go!"
"Langya country prime minister is really a strange man."
The female generals heard positive comments about Chutian in Xiacheng, and could not help but be surprised.
Chutian has never done anything maddeningly bad. The forces attacking are all those with bad reputations, such as the Taishan Bandit and the Yellow Turban Army. Moreover, he is the official Prime Minister of Langya. As long as the people under his rule can survive, these people will sing praises to him. In troubled times, people's lives are as cheap as grass, and living is already a luxury.
Zhao Yun was drunk by Xue Rengui, and finally agreed to join the army of Langya in the crusade against Dong Zhuo.
Langya country's fierce generals are like clouds. Zhao Yun met Xue Rengui, Li Guang, Xu Sheng and other generals in Xiacheng, and gradually became friends, and has gradually fallen.
Using the friendship between the generals to leave Zhao Yun behind is undoubtedly the right choice.
With Xue Rengui, Li Guang, and others, Zhao Yun would hardly be kidnapped by Liu Bei.
When Chutian was preparing for the crusade, other great lords also frequently submitted their applications to the court to apply for the prefecture, the state minister, and even some people applied for the prefecture of the state and the state shepherd.
Now that Yuan Shao and the Yiren Guild Han League control Luoyang, it is easier to obtain official positions such as prefect, general, state governor than when Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty.
In the name of Emperor Han Shaodi, Yuan Shao named himself a general of chariots and cavalry, declared Dong Zhuo a traitor, and then he wanted to confer officials to win people's hearts.
Yuan Shu was named the prefect of Nanyang by Yuan Shao, Zhao Long, the lord of Jizhou, was named the prefect of Wei County, and Cao Cao was named the general of Fenwu...
The Liaodong lord Mingguan used Xiangping City's teleportation array ~IndoMTL.com~ to send Yuan Shao 30,000 taels of silver and 700 Liaodong war horses. Yuan Shao named him the prefect of Liaodong.
Some lords followed suit and sent gold, silver and supplies to Yuan Shao, and obtained the positions of prefect and prime minister.
As for the prefect and the state shepherd, Yuan Shao did not dare to arbitrarily seal them. Basically, no strangers were appointed as the prefects and state ministers. However, Liu Yu, a relative of the Han clan, was named Youzhou Mu and Liu Yan. Shepherding for Yizhou...
Therefore, a large group of princes appeared in the Eastern Han District.
"Yuan Shao went too far."
Chu Tian learned that Yuan Shao was entrusting the feudal lords, and knew that Yuan Shao wanted to use his official position to win over the various feudal lords, and asked them to enter Luoyang to resist Dong Zhuo.
But Yuan Shao went too far, and the number of canonized princes was large, and he went to the doctor in a panic.
Chu Tian was originally the only alien lord who had obtained the status of a prince, but now at least five alien lords have obtained official positions on an equal footing with Chu Tian, making Chu Tian's status as the Prime Minister of Langya somewhat lowered.
That's how inflation happens.
When everyone is the prefect and the general, the value of the prefect and the general will drop.
Chu Tian was wondering about the decline of his status as the Prime Minister of Langya, and Yuan Shao's envoy had arrived in Xiacheng.
