Under the persuasion of Chen Xi and others, the last thing Liu Bei could do was to prepare a large amount of supplies for Yizhou and prepare for them to take over after Liu Zhang's defeat.
After all, what Chen Xi and the others said makes sense. Sichuan is a trap in itself as the road has not yet been built. The Hengduan Mountains in Xichuan make it difficult for you to enter comfortably no matter how you enter.
Even relatively speaking, supplies are not so lucky. Even if the Yangtze River waterway is bound to be opened to the east of the Yangtze River, it will not be so easy to transport supplies by warship. It is estimated that the only way to transport supplies beyond Xichuan is by land.
It was transported inside.
Fortunately, Yan Yan had fought his way out of Bazhou once before, and had a big attack with Sun Ce in Nanjun. The road was still forced out. Although it was a bit difficult to get in and out, he could still transport some supplies. Besides, it was not possible to transport some supplies.
Is there a Sun Bofu?
Sun Ce is a second-rate guy, but he has no problem in the general direction. His behavior of raising the Han flag in Northern Xinjiang shows that this guy's mind is often not online, but he can still see the overall situation very clearly, and Zhou Yu's
As a human being, Sun Ce will definitely send a batch of supplies when the time comes.
It's amazing that I'll praise Sun Ce a little when the time comes. Anyway, this guy will definitely support Liu Zhang after learning the news. Then let Sun Ce find a way to send it in.
Anyway, Chen Xi heard that Zhou Yu raised a lot of Yunnan horses, and now he is probably struggling with what to do with them. The poor Yunnan horses are only one meter long. Chen Xi does not believe that Zhou Yu can use Yunnan horses as mounts to form a cavalry. By the way, Zhou Yu has done it.
A lot of it, a lot of energy was spent, a lot of food, materials and manpower wasted, and it is probably collapsing now!
Now it would be good to send a batch of supplies to Zhou Yu using Yunnan horses to deliver supplies from Yunnan. Yunnan horses happen to run this way, which is gratifying.
"That's it, Zichuan, you and Wenru will take stock of the war preparations, send people to Yizhou, and tell Ji Yu that if you can't beat him, don't go up, there will be us behind you." Liu Bei sighed, since everyone
They all thought that nothing big would happen, so he could only believe in this judgment. After all, these people had never let him down in so many years.
"Here." Li You said calmly, while Chen Xi nodded.
Later, Li You came to Chen Xi to ask how to send supplies to Sichuan. The waterway was too tight to send them to Nanjun. If he wanted to send them further, he could only take the land route. No one can change this. The gap between where the Yangtze River starts is a bit awkward.
People collapsed.
"Why are you thinking so much? Just ask Xingba to send the supplies to Jiangdong in a big ship, and then ask Sun Bofu to help." Chen Xi said nonchalantly.
Chen Xi really didn't believe that Sun Ce would refuse such a thing. Anyway, in Sun Ce's mind, it must be a gift to one family and two families. At most, Chen Xi should be responsible for the food and grass lost during transportation. As for corruption, Sun Ce, a second-rate man, would definitely
Can't do it.
"I'm telling you, Zichuan, if you do this, Zhou Gongjin will beat you sooner or later." Li You patted Chen Xi's shoulder very solemnly.
"Don't worry, don't worry, he won't hit me. Besides, I didn't fool him." Chen Xi said with a smile, Zhou Yu hit him? What a joke.
"You first deceived Zhou Gongjin into setting up a horse farm, and then used the truth to make Zhou Yu understand the mistake and use local materials. You probably raised 20,000 to 30,000 Yunnan horses. This time, you brought Yunnan horses to your trade route.
I don’t want to pay it back yet, what do you think Zhou Gongjin will think." Li You sighed and said, "Facing a person of this level, it is not cost-effective to do things to this extent."
Li You is a person who likes to do certain things once and for all, which is the so-called perfection of things, but even Li You is not willing to provoke a monster of Zhou Yu's level. It is completely unnecessary.
On the one hand, you can't really get rid of Zhou Yu, on the other hand, you really pissed off Zhou Yu, and it won't be easy to clean up later. Even Li You has to admit now that this era is really about the waves behind the Yangtze River pushing the waves ahead, and Zhou Yu's
In Li You's view, the level of power is at a level where he must give face to himself, and there is no need to constantly trick Zhou Yu.
"Yes, I do seem to have gone too far." Chen Xi scratched his cheek. It was right after thinking about it. Zhou Yu happily went to the racecourse. When he turned around, he found that he had been tricked by Chen Xi. He was probably so depressed that he was about to vomit blood. He was tricked again.
It will probably explode at once.
"Forget it, let's talk to him directly and show your sincerity. Wen He, please give me a copy of the information on the Northern Country Ranch and send it over together so that Zhou Gongjin can see what he needs." Chen Xi turned sideways and looked at the cotton-wrapped clothes.
Lu Su, who was tremblingly walking past him, greeted Jia Xu, who had already run away. Chen Xi can now guarantee that Lu Su's fear of the cold is definitely a mental illness.
"Will you give it after the Central Plains is unified?" Li You raised his head, Zhou Yu would be tormented by Chen Xi sooner or later and become prematurely old. Speaking of which, Sun Ce had been causing trouble for Zhou Yu all day long, and now there was another Chen Xi.
"That's for sure. Besides, it's not easy to transport." Chen Xi said with a smile.
"Just play, I'll wait to see Zhou Yu chase you and fight." Li You said with a headache. After the world is unified, the first thing the three families will do when they meet is probably Zhou Yu chasing Chen Xi.
"I'm still afraid of him, but I'm protected by someone," Chen Xi shouted.
"I guess Master Han won't care about this matter at all when the time comes." Li You shook his head repeatedly, Chen Xi, just do it. Han Qiong will definitely not care about this kind of thing then.
Chen Xi shook his head disdainfully and ran away. The next day, he and Lu Su and others counted a bunch of supplies and ordered them to be transported to Donglai and sent to Gan Ning who was training troops. After loading, they took the sea route into the Yangtze River.
As Chen Xi had estimated, Sun Ce did not stop Gan Ning and allowed him to take the large and small boats along the Yangtze River waterway until he reached Nanjun.
As for the letter, it was also sent to Sun Ce. Although Zhou Yu's face was full of dissatisfaction, but after seeing the list of Northern Xinjiang National Ranches that Chen Xi sent, he still waved his hand and transferred the more than 30,000 Yunnan people who had been unhappy for a long time.
The horse was handled by Liu Bei.
What happened in the Central Plains had no impact at all on Zhang Ren, who was still in Indochina. After the spring plowing was completed, Zhang Ren and others once again threw themselves into intense training.
After all, for Zhang Ren now, nothing can stabilize people's hearts more than the army in his hands. Especially after receiving information from intelligence personnel that there was something strange happening in Kushan, Zhang Ren acted intuitively on the current situation.
Made a judgment.
I guess it can only be the group of rubbish next door who want to take action against them. However, there is nothing to be afraid of. Although the city has only completed one foundation so far, Zhang Ren was not just messing around last year and went south.
The craftsmen he brought produced a large number of crossbows and a large number of trebuchets.
If others are still pursuing the accuracy of these war weapons, then Zhang Ren gave up on accuracy from the beginning.
Zhang Ren only has one requirement for war weapons, and that is quantity. He cuts down wood on the spot to make siege equipment. The crossbow that looks so rough and has no polished surface is the finished product that Zhang Ren ordered the craftsmen to madly make last year.
.
As for the trebuchets, they are patched everywhere, and the accuracy cannot be guaranteed at all, but there are enough, so just shoot them in a row. As for whether they are ugly or not, Zhang Ren doesn't care at all. What he wants is practicality and power.
, save the rest, this is a weapon of war, if you have free time to make something beautiful, you might as well make more.
So far, the craftsmen under Zhang Ren have produced a large number of inferior bed crossbows. In terms of quantity, they are probably the most war weapons such as bed crossbows on a single battlefield in history. A bed crossbow can only be controlled by three people working together.
, a total of 1,300 were produced.
There was no way, Indochina was full of trees during this period. It had retreated a bit and found a suitable place as a base. As a result, it took a long time just to cut down the trees, and it was not easy to deal with the felled trees piled aside.
It will also hinder traffic.
Zhang Su waved his hand, and all the craftsmen went to practice. After a year, the craftsmen led by Zhang Ren had not learned anything else, but they were quite proficient in making war weapons, crossbows and trebuchets.
There is no way, no matter who makes this thing every day, if he doesn't do anything else for a year, he just keeps making it over and over again, it is strange that he still can't make perfect without practice.
By the way, just because of such endless efforts to make bed crossbows, even if the accuracy is not pursued, later on, the accuracy of Zhang Ren's bed crossbows is quite good, but the appearance is still too rough, there is no way, there are some
Too much pursuit of speed.
In the end, the trebuchet was converted into a trebuchet because there were not enough silk strings. It is inevitable to make it with the tendons of vines to make it elastic. Otherwise, the number of bed crossbows may exceed 2,000. How crazy. It can be said that they are now installed everywhere in the base.
It's a bed crossbow. There is a craftsman in the military camp who can make and repair this thing. I am convinced.
In short, when I heard that there was something unusual happening in Guishan next door, Zhang Ren was not only not nervous, but actually felt excited about finally waiting for the other party to get sick. After all, it was agreed at the beginning that the Han Dynasty had won, and Guishan would give half of the fertile land of the Baicheng Dynasty.
The result hasn't been given yet, but Zhang Renke still remembers it clearly.
"General Zhang, Shilang Zhang has an urgent report. Please go back and deal with it." Just when Zhang Ren was counting war weapons and making war preparations for the rumored Kuishang movement, his personal guards came to report urgently. Zhang Su's side
If you have any questions, please contact Zhang Ren.
Last year, Liu Zhang brought things with him to the imperial meeting. In addition, after the eldest princess took over as regent and the Yuan Dynasty changed, the civil servants and generals under Liu Zhang, relying on the actual achievements Liu Zhang brought, were all promoted to high positions like other princes. Zhang Su also
A minister of state affairs was added.
"Okay, I'll go over there right now." Zhang Ren nodded, with excitement or anticipation on his face. He picked up a spear, got on his horse and headed towards the semi-permanent base they built. His intuition told him that there was no place for Guishan.
