After Brother Zhu took the order given by Liu Xie to dispatch the Red Dragon Guard, Liu Xie looked at Fa Zheng again and said, "What news has been in the Central Plains in the past half month?"

Fa Zheng glanced at Yang Xiu, and Yang Xiu bowed and said, "The news about this has always been sorted out by Weichen."

In fact, the military service department was sorting out the news, and then the military service department passed the news to the Shangshutai. Although Zhu Ge and Yang Xiu were both Liu Xie's secretary, they were still famous in the military service department. This time the layout was that Zhu Ge commanded the military service department to operate.

Without the cooperation of the powerful intelligence agencies of the Military Affairs Office, Zhu Ge's wisdom is no matter how high his wisdom is, it is hard for a good man to cook without rice.

Now that the three big men of the Military Affairs Office are on the battlefield, Liu Xie asked Zhu Ge to take charge of this matter, which also means testing and training him. What's more, there is also a way to give some advice and help, and it may not be very wrong. As for Liu Xie's temper before, he just gave them a reminder.

Liu Xie believed that they should not be unaware of the importance of this matter. Therefore, they should have just acted, but just wanted to get Liu Xie's personal advice and recognition. Since they wanted the Shangfang sword, Liu Xie naturally would not be unwilling to give it to him.

In Liu Xie's idea, the Military Intelligence Department must not only have the Military Intelligence Department, but also the Central Intelligence Department. The Military Intelligence Department is external and the Central Intelligence Department is internal and supervising all illegal acts of internal subjects. This part of the functions should have been done by the Censorate, but the Censorate obviously does not have the time and energy, and it is even more impossible to touch some corners that cannot be touched. At this time, the existence of the Censorate is very necessary.

Just like the Jinyiwei of the Ming Dynasty, the emperor could know any movement at the first time. Of course, the existence of this institution has advantages and disadvantages, so there are no need to explain it. But Liu Xie felt that as long as he exists, the existence of this institution is still very necessary.

At present, the functions of the Military Affairs Office are not separated, but from the perspective of long-term interests, the CIA will sooner or later be separated from the Military Affairs Office.

"Ten days ago..." Yang Xiu began to tell Liu Xie, "There was news from the Central Plains. Cao Cao had surrounded Lu Bu in Xia Pi. According to the news, according to Lu Bu's original defense, he should have been preparing to defend Xia Pi, but for some reason. He suddenly led his troops to break through overnight and headed south all the way. Now he is unknown."

Hearing this, Liu Xie smiled bitterly in his heart. This Lu Fengxian, who really got his reminder, is now ready to break through!

Going south all the way, would he want to go to Jiangdong to carry the tripod with the little bully? But this possibility should not be great. Lu Buqiang is in the cavalry and when he arrives in the south, he will die.

After thinking about it, Liu Xie looked at Fa Zheng and said, "Did the Military Affairs Office arrange for people to investigate their whereabouts? So many people cannot disappear out of thin air at once! Find it out and send him a letter to me and tell him that in this world, I will only be the one who dares to use him Lu Bu!"

"Here!" Fa Zheng hesitated for a moment, then bowed and walked to the side, and began to grind and write.

"Dezu, continue talking!" Liu Xie pinched his chin and signaled to Yang Xiu.

"Here!" Yang Xiu bowed again and said, "After Cao Cao took Xuzhou, he asked Cao Cao's son Xiao to take charge of Xuzhou. He then returned to the court. At the same time, he sent Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Miaocai to lead 5,000 as the vanguard, and he personally led 30,000 troops and horses. The troops turned and turned to Zhang Xiu, Nanyang."

Liu Xie frowned and said in confusion: "Didn't it mean that Cao Mengde is short of food? How can he continue to fight?"

Yang Xiu smiled and said, "Your Majesty must have no idea that Cao Mengde got a lot of food and supplies from Yuan Highway. In addition, Xuzhou was almost taken down by him in one go, so he did not consume much food and salary at all. He also obtained a lot of food and food stored by Lu Bu. It should be no problem to support them in the battle of Nanyang!"

Liu Xie nodded, thinking that something was right. After all, Cao Cao took Xuzhou, because he did not participate in Liu Paopuo, so he did not toss and struggle in Xuzhou at all, so the loss was naturally much less. Think about the fact that Liu Paopuo participated in history, Xuzhou changed hands several times!

There should be a big difference between Xuzhou today and Xuzhou in this period in history, not about the place, but about the population, money and food.

"What are the actions of Cao Mengde's troops pointing to Nanyang, Nanyang and Jingzhou?" Liu Xie asked, clasping his fingertips.

"Jingzhou has reached an alliance agreement with Nanyang half a month ago. After Cao Mengde advanced to Nanyang, although Jingzhou did not send troops to support him, it supported a lot of money and food." Yang Xiu said with a smile. From his smile, Liu Xie could see that he was a little dissatisfied with Jingzhou's actions.

"Do you have the idea of ​​continuing to send someone to test Zhang Xiu?" Liu Xie asked again.

"Yes!" Yang Xiu smiled and said, "According to Your Majesty's strategy toward Zhang Xiu, we sent people to test it twice. The first time Zhang Xiu was a little hesitant, but the second time he refused. Wei Ju felt that we should wait until Zhang Xiu was beaten by Cao Mengde and Jingzhou could not provide further assistance, so let's take action again!"

Obviously, Yang Xiu also knew that Zhang Xiu had Jingzhou as his backing and did not consider Liu Xie, who was far away in Yizhou. After agreeing to Liu Xie's conditions, he had to give up the land of Nanyang. This was a pity for Zhang Xiu, who finally grabbed the territory from Liu Biao.

But Liu Xie felt that Zhang Xiu was just used by Liu Biao as a shield. Perhaps when Nanyang was taken away by Zhang Xiu at the beginning, Liu Biao would be very angry, but Liu Biao would not have thought that if Cao Cao went south, Zhang Xiu would become his first obstacle to going south, and Liu Biao could calmly deploy it later.

But even if Zhang Xiu knew Liu Biao’s idea, he had no choice because he needed a place to develop too much.

"In addition, the rebellion of the Southern Central Barbarians also has the shadow of Jingzhou Fang'er behind it." Yang Xiu said again: "The rebellion of Jingzhou has increased by 10,000 naval troops. The commander was Zhang Yun. On the grounds of naval training, the rebellion training was made. If the war broke out, they could hit Yu Fu directly within one night."

Liu Xie nodded and said, "How is the navy army formed in Gan Xingba?"

Liu Xie rarely consulted about the construction of the docks in Ganning and the formation of the naval army, and has never seen them yet. However, Liu Xie made many suggestions on shipbuilding. Although he was not very clear about shipbuilding, he still knew about setting up keels between warships.

It was precisely because of Liu Xie's proposal that the Yizhou Navy officially began to build such a keel warship.

Now, I guess I have gained something, after all, it’s almost half a year passed. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
