Chapter 1023 Northern Expedition

Gu Yong persuaded him like this, and when he saw that Liu Zheng seemed to have made up his mind, he stopped persuading him.

I could only retreat with a stern face.

However, Gu Yong had just stepped down, and Chen Deng stood up on the other side.

"Your Majesty has another matter. If Your Majesty wants to lead the army in person, the marriage that he had discussed with General Lu Bu before may be delayed."

Chen Deng is the minister in charge of this wedding.

Since Liu Zheng wanted to lead the army in person, I was afraid that time would not be able to catch up.

He couldn't make any decision on this matter, so he could only ask Liu Zheng what he meant.

Liu Zheng forgot about this incident. At this time, he frowned after hearing Chen Deng’s reminder.

Things that were decided before the marriage event could never be changed now.

But if Liu Zheng wanted to lead the army in person, it would be difficult to have the best of both worlds. He could not wait until he got married before expeditioning to the northern alien races. If he really did that, let alone destroy Yuan Xi, the daylily would be cold.

Yuan Xi and his group had long since run away.

He didn't want to let Lu Qiling down, and he was unwilling to let go of the matter of being the emperor's command in person.

After frowning and pondering for a moment, I still thought of a way to achieve two things by barely.

"Let's do this, the wedding is held normally, but I'll hold it on the way to the north."

"You are in Jianye City. I will take Lu Qiling to Qingzhou to give me a vacation time to get me and Lu Qiling together."

Anyway, they are not unfamiliar with Lu Qiling, and they have known each other for many years.

Besides, Lu Qiling is also a female general in the Women's Camp under Liu Zheng.

This time I went to the north to attack Yuan Xi and took Lu Qiling's women's camp with me.

Just hold the wedding on the way.

Extraordinary moments, extraordinary times, extraordinary methods.

After Liu Zheng said this, Chen Deng, who was a little confused before, was also stunned. He never expected that Liu Zheng would do this.

He had some doubts at first, but after hearing Liu Zheng say this, he understood that he could only do what Liu Zheng said.

"I understand, let's go and give orders."

After Chen Deng's question was over, there were no other doubts among the people present.

Since no one opposed Liu Zhengyu's personal expedition, the next step was to plan how to personally expedition and how to deal with the nomadic peoples in the north?

Liu Zheng does not need to participate in this personally.

With his think tank to help him plan everything, he just needs to listen to their advice.

In half a day, Guo Jia, Chen Deng, Gu Yong, Mi Fang and others had planned everything.

The food and grass have begun to gather and transport it to the north.

Before the army moved, food and grass came first.

Although Liu Zheng's command was not short of food in various places, since he had to face the attack of the northern nomadic peoples, he would draw almost all the soldiers and horses from Qingzhou and Xuzhou, and the food consumed by these soldiers was not in a decimal place.

The daily consumption of the 100,000 army is a terrifying number, if you don’t prepare in advance.

In case of shortage of military rations, it will be a huge blow to the morale of the army.

In addition to mobilizing food and grass to the front line in advance, orders need to be issued and troops stationed in various places must be mobilized to start gathering.

This time Liu Zheng’s plan was not just to defend against Yuan Xi’s attack.

He even wanted to destroy Yuan Xi in one fell swoop, thus eliminating all foreign races such as Wuhuan and Xianbei.

If you do this, the number of soldiers and horses that Liu Zheng needs is not a small number.

So he needed to mobilize a large number of troops in advance.

Not only the soldiers and horses near Yangzhou, but also the soldiers and horses stationed near Xuzhou.

They all need to go to Jizhou in advance. After all, they are not cavalry and have weak mobility. It takes three or four days to pass through the garrison, and even half a month to arrive.

After all, Liu Zheng has not many troops stationed in Jizhou now, and the only troops stationed in Qingzhou that can quickly reach Jizhou are Zang Ba.

Other troops that need to be mobilized, such as Sun Ce, Zhou Yu's army, and Wenpin's men were stationed in Yangzhou and Xuzhou.

It is still a bit far from Jizhou, so it will definitely take time to get over.

It does not mean that they can arrive in three or two days, and their troops are mainly infantry and their mobility is not fast.

Therefore, Liu Zheng had to make arrangements in advance and lead their troops to Jizhou to quickly join the army and make plans.

Because this time the war against the northern nomadic peoples was of great importance and Liu Zheng could not be careless, he decided to mobilize more troops.

The fallen soldiers alone already occupied nearly half of Liu Zheng's troops.

If it weren't for Huang Zhong, Gan Ning, Sun Jian, Liu Chong and others who would have to guard Jingzhou and Yuzhou, they would really not be able to mobilize their troops.

Liu Zheng really planned to dispatch some troops from them to Jizhou.

After all, there are many cavalry under the nomadic peoples in the north. If there is no force to compete with it, it is not easy to completely eliminate them.

After all, the number of cavalry under Liu Zheng has always been a shortcoming. If you want to fight them head-on on the front battlefield, the chances of winning are really not very good.

We can only suppress it by relying on the military advantage far superior to them.

Only in a short period of time can these northern nomadic peoples be driven out of China.

Because the war in the north was urgent, Liu Zheng did not have much time to stay in Jianye City. On the second day, Xu Huang, Taishi Ci and others had already led the cavalry to Jizhou first.

He himself took Lu Bu and his daughter, as well as their camp and the women's camp, all the way north along the way.

Go to Xuzhou first to meet Sun Ce and Zhou Yu who were stationed in Xuzhou.

Although Xuzhou is still the Chen family and Mi family who manage Xuzhou, the military power has always been firmly controlled by Liu Zheng.

After all, Xuzhou was taken away by Liu Bei once before, and some of Liu Zheng's forces in Xuzhou were almost wiped out.

Now is the manpower that Liu Zheng arranged again after he regained Xuzhou.

Of course, in order to prevent other forces from getting involved, the troops stationed in Xuzhou were the most trusted personnel of Liu Zheng.

For example, his eldest disciple Zhou Yu was guarding Xuzhou.

This time, Liu Zheng was going north along the road to Xuzhou and would come to Zhou Yu's troops.

Although he wanted to mobilize many troops to go to the north to attack the alien races.

However, there are no fewer troops stationed in various places. Every legion under Liu Zheng could only draw out a portion of troops to follow him to Jizhou.
