The First Military Division of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 246 Liaodong Iron Mine
"Yuanlong, when we go to Yizhou, we need to bring gifts to visit famous families in Yizhou and maintain a good relationship with them. I have prepared the necessary gifts.

You are a big family in Xuzhou, it is common to go to visit various ethnic groups, you should not attract the attention of others, the rest of the people can communicate normally, but the new Yizhou don't drive Zhang Song, you can talk about it in detail. "

Before the team to Yizhou set off, Chen Ziming asked Chen Deng, the deputy envoy who accompanied Guan Yu, to explain.

When choosing people to accompany Guan Yu to Yizhou, Liu Bei originally wanted to send Sun Qian there, but was stopped by Chen Ziming. Although Sun Qian was talented, Chen Deng was better at engaging in conspiracies and tricks.

Moreover, Chen Deng could understand Chen Ziming's meaning very well. Zhang Song was arrogant and confident, and most people would not notice him. Only someone from a rich family like Chen Deng who was given the important task of Liu Bei could have a close friendship with Zhang Song.

Chen Ziming wanted Zhang Song to know that Chen Deng was a role model. At the beginning, Chen Deng also made great efforts in leading Liu Bei's army into Xuzhou. Now that Liu Bei has reused him, Zhang Song can do the same.

With Chen Deng's intellect, there is no problem in completing such a small matter. Chen Deng occupied a high ranking among countless fierce men in the Three Kingdoms period.

Chen Ziming had to pay attention to Zhang Song, because Yizhou was so important to Chen Ziming. He didn't want another Three Kingdoms to appear in history.

On this envoy's trip, Liu Bei and Chen Ziming led an army of [-] to accompany Guan Yu to Peijun in Yuzhou. Cao Cao in Yuzhou was shocked and hurriedly led the army to confront Liu Bei.

Cao Cao was really afraid that Liu Bei would raid Yuzhou in the name of escorting Guan Yu. Although Xi Zhicai and others believed that Liu Bei did this to protect Guan Yu, Cao Cao couldn't afford it.

In fact, Cao Cao did the right thing, because Chen Ziming really thought about it, if Cao Cao was not prepared, he would take this opportunity to make a surprise attack on Cao Cao, take Yuzhou in one fell swoop, and kill Cao Cao.

You must know that Zhang Fei's 20 army originally had Zhang Fei in Peijun, and now Liu Bei has brought another [-]. The [-] army is fully capable of killing Cao Cao, provided that Cao Cao has no defenses.

You must know that Liu Bei's accompanying lineup this time is very luxurious. Liu Bei sits in person, Chen Ziming, Chen Gong, Xu Shu, Chen Deng and others are military advisers, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Zhang Jai, Zang Ba and other strong generals, and 20 elite troops , After Cao Cao knew Liu Bei's plastic surgery, he immediately mobilized troops from all over the country to Yuzhou to sit in town.

Fortunately, Liu Bei's main purpose was to escort Guan Yu and set up troops on the border to keep Guan Yu safe.

Chen Ziming, Chen Gong and others who were traveling together discussed for a long time. According to Cao Cao's defense, there is no possibility of a successful sneak attack, and it is indeed not suitable for a big battle with Cao Cao.

The vitality of Liu Bei's army has not yet recovered, and it is impossible to kill Cao Cao in one go. Liu Bei and Cao Cao will lose both sides in the fight, and it will only benefit others.

After Chen Ziming knew the lineup of Cao Cao's army, he had to give up this unrealistic idea.

Cao Cao personally sat in the town, accompanied by Xi Zhicai, Cheng Yu, Xun You and others, and there were many strong generals, such as Xu Chu, Xia Houyuan, Xia Houheng, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Le Jin, Li Dian, Yu Jin and many other strong generals.

Compared with Liu Bei, it is not much different, and the most important thing is that Cao Cao also gathered 20 troops and distributed them around, looking like he was strictly guarding, and did not give Chen Ziming the slightest chance.

In the end, the mission led by Guan Yu passed through Yuzhou under the supervision of Cao Cao's army, entered Jingzhou, and then entered Yizhou from Jingzhou.

In order to guard against Guan Yu and others, Cao Cao sent generals Xu Chu and Xia Houheng to lead an army of [-] to follow, which shows how careful Cao Cao is.Although Guan Yu and others only have a thousand people, their power is also very terrifying. Let alone Guan Yu, who is an enemy of ten thousand people, Gao Shun's eight hundred traps are not blown out. Cao Cao has a deep memory.

It's not that Cao Cao never thought of taking advantage of this opportunity to kill Guan Yu and others and remove Liu Bei's arm.But seeing the posture of Liu Bei's army waiting in full force, Cao Cao had to give up this plan. Just as Chen Ziming and others thought, Cao Cao and Liu Bei are not suitable for a life-and-death battle now.

If Cao Cao dared to attack Guan Yu, Liu Bei would definitely fight Cao Cao desperately. Whatever the final result, Cao Cao would not have a good time, and he would even be wiped out by Liu Bei directly.

Now Liu Bei is not restrained by a powerful enemy like Yuan Shao. As for Jiangdong Sun Ce, he will never send troops until Cao Cao and Liu Bei have a winner.

In fact, Chen Ziming was also afraid that Cao Cao's head would get hot. If he gave Guan Yu a shot, he would enter a hornet's nest. If anything happened to Guan Yu, Liu Bei would definitely go crazy. At that time, Chen Ziming would not be able to control it.

Fortunately, Cao Cao was sensible and didn't mess around. Everything was left in the future, and everyone had no worries before coming to fight to the death.

Guan Yu's mission to Yizhou went very smoothly, and nothing that Chen Ziming worried about happened. Both Cao Cao in Yuzhou and Liu Biao in Jingzhou sent troops to escort Guan Yu and others all the way to ensure the safety of Guan Yu and others.

More than a month later, Guan Yu led his team back safely, Liu Bei and others led the army to leave, and at the same time let Zhang Jai lead an army of [-] to sit in Pei County, and Zhang Fei followed Liu Bei back. war.

"Military division, Liaodong County, Youzhou discovered a very large iron ore vein, and the iron content is very high, the accuracy is very good, and it is very easy to mine."

Not long after Chen Ziming returned to Linzi, he received good news from a team going to Youzhou to explore minerals.Chen Ziming remembered that in the Liaodong area of ​​Youzhou, there was a huge iron ore vein, but he didn't know where it was. All he sent this expedition team only gave them a rough range.

I didn't expect the good news to come so soon. What Liu Bei lacks now is iron ore. Neither Qingzhou nor Xuzhou has a large amount of iron ore storage, but Youzhou has it.

As for Fuzhou, there are iron mines there, but it is too far away, and mining is very difficult. It is not as convenient as Youzhou, and it does not need a lot of manpower and material resources to transport.

"Order the Ministry of Military Industry to immediately establish a military factory where the iron ore is found, and immediately mine the iron ore. It is necessary to raise the required armor for the entire army within one year."

"Let Mi Zhu immediately deploy the required funds without any delay." Chen Ziming immediately ordered. You must know that with this huge iron ore vein, the equipment level of Liu Bei's army can be improved to a higher level. crush all enemies.
