Chapter 464 Cao Yuan Night Meeting
Faced with Liu Fan's righteous expression, the princes present felt a stern heart.
No one thinks Liu Fan is joking! They all know a little about what Liu Fan did. In particular, Cao Cao and Sun Jian fought with Liu Fan and knew very well about Liu Fan's military management.
What Liu Fan said was within the scope of "the teacher of benevolence and righteousness". They all beat the title of the teacher of benevolence and righteousness.
After returning to the camp, you must warn your subordinates to strictly enforce military discipline.
Otherwise, if Liu Fan caught the handle, he would not only be unable to bear the weight, but also involve a large number of troops and consume their strength.
"A teacher of benevolence and righteousness should do things of benevolence and righteousness, and should be in charge of benevolence and righteousness. We should keep in mind the orders of the leader and do them with caution!"
Yuan Shao, who was sitting on his right head, said in a straight voice.
"Well! I said so much at first." Liu Fan nodded and said to everyone: "My army has more than 400,000 troops and horses, and I have no choice but to do anything about food and grass. Which general is willing to govern the grain and grass to supply the army? After fighting Dong's victory, he will remember his great achievements."
Food and grass are related to the lifeline of a military, which is a very bad idea.
Many people want to respond, but the question is where to collect the grain of more than 400,000 troops?
"My brother Yuan Shu was the prefect of Nanyang. Nanyang was rich and the people had surplus grain in their homes. Shao suggested that Yuan Shu governors the food and grass, collect food and grass in Nanyang and Jianghuai, and deal with it in the camps."
Yuan Shao once again suggested to Liu Fan that he recommended Yuan Shu to serve as a key position in transporting grain.
"I think the same as Benchu's thought. Good! I ordered the Nanyang Prefect Yuan Shu to governor the food and grass. Each battalion took out money and handed it to the Nanyang Prefect. When collecting grain, no levy of taxes must be forced. After collecting grain, all battalions must be equal and there is no shortage of envoys!"
Liu Fan loudly announced the candidate for the governor's food and supplies.
Liu Fan's order surprised the princes.
There is no doubt that yesterday, Liu Fan had already made a grudge with Yuan Shu.
Food and grass are the lifeblood of a military. If the army has no food and grass for a day, the morale of the army will be dispersed.
Now they praised Liu Fan in their hearts for repaying his grievances with kindness and being a gentleman.
"Oh! The Jianghuai River is rich and will be able to supply food and supplies to the army!"
Yuan Shu was overjoyed. Transporting food and grass not only allowed him to earn the oil and water of various princes, but also did not have to go to the front line to fight and retain his strength!
After he was challenged, he could use his prestige and become the world's number one prince.
At the same time, Yuan Shu secretly looked at Liu Fan. Could it be that he was like Dong Zhuo to show goodwill to him?
However, Yuan Shu will be revenged if he has a grudge. He still has a gap with Liu Fan in his heart.
Even if Dong dares not target Liu Fan this time, he will definitely take advantage of the situation in the future.
Liu Fan nodded.
It seems that Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu have not broken yet. If the two Yuans worked together to support the Han Dynasty in history, there would be no matter how many princes were involved.
Liu Fan dared to use the grain and grass of Yuan Shu, because the Jianghuai land was the easiest place to collect grain.
Second, Liu Fan wanted to return history to the track for easy control. At the same time, he would cut off Sun Jian!
Liu Fan was not afraid that Yuan Shu would play tricks with him. All the princes came to challenge Dong, and they all carried a lot of food and grass, and Liu Fan was no exception.
Whether Yuan Shu collects grain or not, the grain and grass brought by Liu Fan can last for a month and a half, and there is no need for Yuan Shu to collect grain.
"Our army of more than 400,000 is striking against the rebel ministers, and it is a huge momentum. One person needs to be the vanguard, bypass Xingyang and go straight to Arc deputies. Who can win first and win morale for our army? I will win another title."
Liu Fan looked at the princes below.
"The last general Sun Jian is willing to promote his troops as front and take down Arc destiny for the Allies."
Sun Jian stood up and volunteered.
Among them, Sun Jian's background was relatively humble. His background was similar to Dong Zhuo, and he was not a noble family, but a wealthy family.
Descendants of the Grandson of the Soldier?
Now Sun Jian dares not claim to himself because he doesn't know if he is descended from his grandson.
In history, after Sun Quan became emperor, in order to improve his identity as the royal family, he traced his ancestors to the military saint Sun Son.
This situation is common in history. Dong Zhuo and Empress Dowager Yongle formed a relationship. Li Tang called himself a descendant of the saint Laozi.
They are not like the aristocratic families, with genealogy and historical allusions, and are based on the evidence of their appointment as high-ranking officials.
Sun Jian heard in Changsha that Dong Zhuo was tyrannical and domineering in the government, and was arrogant and reckless. He sighed: "If Zhang Wen listened to my words back then, how could the court have the disaster today?"
Sun Jian, Dong Zhuo and Tao Qian worked under Zhang Wen's command together. Sun Jian had seen that he had long seen Dong Zhuo's ambitions.
It is worth mentioning that Sun Jian is not a simple loyal minister?
His ambitions were completely exposed. Because before he confronted Dong, Sun Jian did two major things.
Once the troops arrived in Jingzhou, they forced the Jingzhou envoy Wang Rui to death. Otherwise, Liu Biao would not have "ride into Jing alone".
Second, the troops arrived in Nanyang and killed Nanyang Prefect Zhang Zi. Zhang Zi was the prefect of Nanyang following Yang Sheng.
Wang Rui and Xu Huang fought against the Yellow Turbans in Nanyang. They also fought with Sun Jian to destroy the Quxing rebellion.
The reason why Wang Rui was forced to death was only because Sun Jian and Wang Rui had a quarrel. Sun Jian deceived Wang Rui and captured the city, causing the Jingzhou assassin to swallow gold and die.
When Sun Jian killed Zhang Zi, the prefect of Nanyang, it can be seen that he had collusion with Yuan Shu. After killing Zhang Zi, Yuan Shu represented Sun Jian as the general of the defeated captives and also served as the prefect of Yuzhou. However, Dong Zhuo disagreed. Yuan Shu took the opportunity to lead the prefect of Nanyang.
Sun Jian killed Zhang Zi in order to obtain food and grass, and he made up a crime and lured him to kill him!
All signs show that Sun Jian is not only a tiger in Jiangdong, but also a tiger in his heart.
Therefore, although Sun Jian was one of the eighteen princes, the prefect of Changsha. All princes rejected Sun Jian so much that Sun Jian could only approach Yuan Shu and seek shelter. Changsha was too far from Luoyang, and Sun Jian could only rely on Yuan Shu for food and grass.
Sun Jian was fighting for the vanguard to prove himself and to show prestige in the world.
In troubled times, heroes fight! Emperor Gaozu, a humble man, accomplished great things! Why don’t they dare to fight?
"The Wentai is brave and fierce, and you can take on this responsibility!"
Liu Fan agreed to Sun Jian as the pioneer.
"Thank you, leader!"
Thank you Sun Jian.
"The other tribes are scattered, breaking through the small counties occupied by Dong Zhuo, and marching westward. Once there is a big battle, gather immediately. First determine Xingyang and then Chenggao. After Wentai takes the Arctic Pass, 400,000 troops will be headed straight to Hulao Pass, and the plan will be completed!"
Liu Fan said to all the princes with serious expressions: "Wentai will first capture the Arc destiny today. All the generals will return to the camp to make arrangements. Three days later, it will be the day for us to advance."
"promise!"
The seventeen princes bowed and took the order.
"We are the righteous soldiers who punish the chaos and eliminate violence, not the arrogant soldiers who bully the weak. The righteous soldiers are invincible, and the arrogant soldiers will perish themselves. The military orders are like mountains, so remember them!"
Liu Fan had a serious look and emphasized again.
All the princes knew what Liu Fan meant. They had their own plans in their hearts.
...
Yuan Shao’s camp. After dusk, soldiers held the lights.
Except for the patrol soldiers, the rest went to the camp to rest.
But in the main general's tent, the lights were brightly lit.
"I have known Meng De for many years, but I rarely drink it like today. The two of them pushed the cup and drank, recalling the secret meeting with Meng De and resisting the eunuchs. It is also a friend of life and death!"
A man with a dissatisfaction sitting opposite Yuan Shao, isn’t it Cao Cao?
Chapter completed!
