"The road Gongyou is well built." Chen Xi drove on the road to Yanzhou. Compared with Xiapi to Fenggao, it only took ten days to get from Fenggao to Linyi.
"Sun Changshi is now a very famous construction master." Hua An replied with a smile. After Hua Xiong left, Hua Xiong's fellow villager Hua An replaced Hua Xiong as Chen Xi's bodyguard.
"Well, over in Yanzhou, aren't Lu Fengxian and the others digging?" Chen Xi asked after thinking for a while.
"No digging. On the contrary, Chen Gongtai wants to buy some materials for building straight roads from us." Hua An said with a smile.
Hearing this, Chen Xi nodded. It wasn't that he didn't know how to ride a horse. The main reason why he wanted to ride in a car was because the unlucky guy Pang Tong died while riding a horse. This was really a tragedy, and he didn't want this tragedy to happen to him.
[Chen Gongtai has a good eye and is very clear about the importance of this straight road, but he just doesn't know whether he wants to build the main logistics line, whether the state road is going to Mount Tai or Wei County. ] Chen Xi thought silently.
Compared with Yuan Shao who has no scruples and Yuan Shu who is not focused on the great cause, Chen Gong has more to consider. The logistics line must be repaired. Only in this way can food loss be reduced and the march speed be accelerated. But after repairing the logistics line , which side you want to depend on must build a state road. Of course, you don’t need to build this state road yourself, the other party can also build it.
Chen Xi is very satisfied with the current situation. At least Chen Gong did not stop the road Sun Qian built. This shows that Chen Gong still has the intention to turn to his side. Of course, this road to Linyi is not a state road!
In fact, Chen Xi didn't know. Not only did Chen Gong pretend to not see Sun Qian building the road, but Chen Gong also pretended not to see Yuan Shao building the road. Anyway, he didn't know who he was leaning against. It was Yuan Shao and Liu Bei who were doing the trouble. What does it have to do with him? It is clear that he is looking for a new home!
Of course, the road construction from Wei County to Yanzhou on Yuan Shao's side was slower. After all, the low-quality pirated cement was produced in Liu Bei's side. Yuan Shao wanted this recipe, but Zhen Jiaming said he couldn't get it, and Yuan Shao's spies didn't have any good ideas. , we can only follow the rules. Fortunately, Chen Xi never minded selling this thing to Yuan Shao, so the Zhen family's shipment volume was pretty good.
Regarding low-quality pirated cement, Yuan Shao has always said that the more the better. He is confident that he will never lose to Liu Bei. Liu Bei dared to build the county road to the border of Qingzhou. Naturally, Yuan Shao also has the courage to do this, but unfortunately, courage cannot be used as cement. Yuan Shao could only reserve some cement and then build roads as much as possible.
In this way, all the necessary roads were built in Jizhou, all the necessary roads were built in Youzhou, and only the main roads were built in Bingzhou. However, despite this, Yuan Shao's food and material transportation and the marching speed of the army were all improved. It rose significantly, and Yuan Shao was very satisfied with it.
However, due to the increase in the speed of troop deployment and baggage transportation, Gongsun Zan, who originally wanted to counterattack, had no hope of fighting back to the south of Youzhou. Shenpei directly took up residence in Youzhou. In the defensive battle, Shenpei showed that he was very confident. Even though Gongsun Zan is a white-horse general, it is really not easy to conquer the city that Shenpei defends.
Naturally, after Chen Xi knew that the governor of Youzhou had been replaced by Shen Pei, he gave up hope on Gongsun Zan's counterattack. It was not that he looked down on Gongsun Zan, but because Shen Pei's defensive record was too terrible. Compared with Cao Ren, a famous defensive general like Hao Zhao , thinking about the record of trial matching, I guess I have to say something.
When Cao Cao was at his peak when he first guarded Ye City, Cao Cao personally took command. He had all the plans and five men, and there were countless ministers and generals under his command. Then he guarded Ye City for half a year without any support. In the end, his nephew rebelled and opened the door. After reaching the gate of Yecheng, Cao Cao captured Yecheng...
Compared with the achievements of Hao Zhao and Cao Ren, this record definitely scared the opponent to death. Therefore, after Chen Xi learned that Shen Pei had gone to Youzhou, he completely gave up on Gongsun Zan's counterattack against Youzhou. Compared with Xianden's invasion such as Fire, Shenpei's defense is definitely on the same level as an iron wall!
Not to mention that Gongsun Zan is now half disabled, even Gongsun Zan at his peak would be angry to death if he encountered this situation.
"Where are you approximately now?" Chen Xi asked, "There are about a few days left until Linyi."
"Back to the military advisor, General Zhao was worried that a battle might start immediately when he arrived at Linyi, so he ordered a slow march the day before yesterday. Our army will probably be able to join General Guan and the others tomorrow!" Hua Yun explained, saying that because It's a march, Zhao Yun is in the front army, and Chen Xi is in the middle army.
"Tomorrow?" Chen Xi raised his eyebrows, "Ask Zilong to send more scouts. After all, we are not too far away from the rendezvous now, so as to prevent others from taking advantage of it. Although Zilong is not worried about being ambushed, he still doesn't want to encounter such a situation. This situation is good, but losing troops is not a good thing."
"Here." After Hua Yun handed over the position of the groom to a guard, he rode on horseback to inform Zhao Yun.
"It is true that everything has its pros and cons. This road speeds up the march a lot, but it also limits the marching place, making it easy to be ambushed." Chen Xi looked at the distance and said to himself.
"Zhang Ming, you lead a thousand white horse Yi Cong to hang on the left rear. Huang Shao, you lead the troops to strengthen the defense of the left wing. The hills in this area are all on our left. Send more scouts." Zhao Yun said toward Xue Shao and Huang Shao The man ordered that one of the two men should lead the cavalry and the other should lead the infantry to prepare.
"Here!" Huang Shao and Xue Shao both cupped their fists and saluted, and then each led his troops to move to the left.
A large number of cavalry and infantry wearing Lu Bu's army's leather and cloth armor were stationed on a hill dozens of miles away from Chen Xi and his party, and now a scout was reporting the current situation to a general.
"Report, general, our army has encountered an enemy scout, and the location has been determined to be under the command of Zhao Yun of the Taishan Army!" A scout responded towards the tall general.
"Did you encounter it head-on?" The man wearing silver armor and holding a spear had a smile on his face. "What's my name?"
"The general is Yanmen Zhang Wenyuan!" the scout replied loudly.
"Okay, remember everything, I am Zhang Wenyuan of Yanmen!" Zhang Jia roared, and all his soldiers responded loudly.
There is no need for these people to pretend, they are real Bingzhou Wolf Riders. Bringing them here will not only increase Lu Bu's favor. No matter what his character is, Lu Bu will always have a lingering feeling for Bingzhou, and this is good at calculating minds. Xun Chen seems to be a good breakthrough point.
Similarly, Zhang Jaw led the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry to appear here to create an ironclad fact, that is, Lu Bu does not welcome Liu Bei. After the established fact appears, both Liu Bei and Lu Bu have only one choice. In that situation, regardless of Like it or not, Lu Bu has no choice but to join Yuan Shao! (To be continued.)
