Three Kingdoms, I Yuan Xi, married Zhen Mi at the Start

Chapter 86: The food and grass are in short supply, and the 4 princes outside the capital of Xu have

After Xuzhou and Yanzhou were pacified in succession, Qi Jiguang also heard news that most of Xiahou Yuan's army had been destroyed!

Now it occupies half of Guanzhong, only a few important towns such as Luoyang and Chang'an have not been won!

Hearing this news, Yuan Xi also burst out laughing!

"Zhang He didn't surprise me, the terrain in Xuzhou is flat, no matter how strong Cao Ren is, he can't resist!

"However, Qi Jiguang was able to capture Sishui Pass, Hulao Pass and other places one after another, which surprised me a bit!"

"It should be said, he is indeed a famous general I like!"

As soon as he thought of this, Yuan Xi also immediately ordered!

"Pass my military order, order Zhang He to lead the army to temporarily station in Xuzhou, and Xu You to temporarily be the prefect of Xuzhou to deal with the military and political affairs of Xuzhou!""

"As for Qi Jiguang's side, let him be stationed at Sishui Pass first, and wait until news comes from Tianfeng's side, and then decide whether to march!

After hearing Yuan Xi's words, Zhang Yan below also asked to fight!

"My lord, the last commander has not made any achievements since he joined the master, but he has spent countless money and food for the master with Brother Montenegro, and the last commander is ashamed!

"My brothers in Montenegro are not people who don't want to repay their kindness. We have been training hard in the Taihang Mountains these years, and our only wish is to bring peace to the Lord!

"Please, Lord, allow the last generals to join the battle to conquer Yuzhou! 35

After 23 Zhang Yan opened his mouth, Yuan Xi also smiled and said!

"General Zhang doesn't need to do this, let you stay in the Taihang Mountains, but it's me who is the lord, isn't it, the environment on the mountain is too boring, the world is better!"

"But you have already made a great contribution in this battle. You have eliminated Cao Cao's main force, and you have been able to let Cao Cao be fooled. You have successfully executed Cao Cao and other civil and military affairs. You are the first!"

After smiling, Yuan Xi also continued!

"I originally planned to let you lead a hundred thousand troops to Luoyang to help in the battle. Since there is a chance to win Guanzhong, then we naturally don't let it go!

"However, Tian Feng sent a letter a few days ago, saying that our army is going to fight 800,000 troops this time, and I am afraid that there will be insufficient food and grass in the future, so I need to pay attention!

"Besides, there are millions of people in Montenegro who are about to go down the mountain, which is also a huge expenditure on food and grass. I am afraid that this battle will not go on!"

Originally, Yuan Xi felt that Zhang Yan had just officially come under his command, and he still had to make more contributions!

This is to appease his depression after staying in Taihang Mountain for several years!

But I didn't expect that the 800,000-strong army was about to go out for nearly half a year, and the food and grass saved in Hebei in the past few years would not be enough!

In addition, in the past few years, most of the people in Montenegro needed Hebei's money and grain support, and these were all expenses!

Of course, the most important thing is that there are still millions of people from Montenegro who are going down the mountain, after the food and grass are prepared!

It is estimated that Hebei can only support Yuan Xi in fighting for more than a month at most!

And when Yuan Xi said this, Zhang Yan was also a little helpless, and at the same time a little ashamed!

It is all because of him and the people of Montenegro that Yuan Xi could not continue to expand his victory and completely wiped out the Central Plains!

This………

Seeing Zhang Yan's helpless expression, Ju Shou, who was beside him, also laughed!

"General Zhang, there is no need to worry, the lord has already said, if you are not the dark sons this time, I am afraid it will be extremely difficult to destroy Cao Cao! 39

"Once you are trapped in the place where he fled and defended the city, it is also a war of attrition, and it is impossible to fight completely and achieve full success!

After Ju Shou opened his mouth to comfort her, Zhang Yan felt better!

But he also knew it in his heart, and was deeply moved, and vowed that he would do his best to repay Yuan Xi!

A few days later, when Tian Feng heard the news, Yuan Xi also clearly knew that the remaining inventory in Hebei could only allow the 800,000 army to fight for another month and a half!

But if you count the people of Taihang Mountain, then this time has to be shortened!

After all, the autumn harvest is still several months away. During these few months, Yuan Xi can't let the people under his control go hungry!

If all the food and grass are used for war, it will be so hard, and it will be the people who will starve to death!

And this time Xuzhou, Yanzhou and Guanzhong were not planted because of the war. Although there is still Cao Cao's stock, it is a drop in the bucket!

These places also need a lot of food and grass rescue before the autumn harvest!

You must know that when soldiers are fighting, they have to eat three meals a day, and they have to eat and eat, otherwise how can soldiers be willing to fight desperately?

But if it is not during the war, the consumption of food and grass is only two-thirds of the wartime!

So if you continue to fight, at least more than half of the troops cannot be used!

"Hey, it seems that we can't take too big steps, this battle has already captured the land of two states, and there are half of the levels, it can be considered a perfect ending!

Thinking of this, Yuan Xi also opened his mouth and said!

"The army will be stationed in Chenliu first, and let Tian Feng set aside part of the food and grass to receive the people of Montenegro, and send the rest to Yanzhou!"

"If there is still a shortage of grain and grass, then let the Zhen family pay for the purchase of grain and grass all over the country, especially the noble family, at least until the autumn harvest!""

"As long as we survive the autumn harvest, our days will be better!"

After receiving Yuan Xi's order, all the civil and military officials began to arrange their own arrangements!

Of course, he couldn't support an army of one million to fight, but Yuan Xi could still persevere if he sent more than one hundred thousand troops!

So Yuan Xi asked all the ministries to temporarily station in the same place, and personally brought the Beiwei Army, Jinyiwei and Zhang Yan's 100,000 people to Yuzhou south to help the battle!

After all, in the remaining half of the customs, Xiahou Yuan could only continue to survive, leaving only Luoyang and Chang'an!

Not at all to be afraid of!

If Yuan Xi sends troops again, he can easily take over the whole of Guanzhong!

But if the Yuzhou area is captured by Sun Ce, with the ability of this little overlord and Zhou Yu, it is also a great enemy of Yuan Xi!

So no matter what, Yuzhou cannot fall into the hands of Sun Ce!

A few days later, when Yuan Xi led his army to Xuchang, he found that Zhao Yun had already captured both Liang and Chen counties!

The army is located at the north gate of Xuchang City!

But in the same way, Liu Biao's generals, Liu Pan, Huang Zhong and Wen Pin also led 150,000 troops to take Runan County, located at the south gate of Xuchang!

As for Sun Ce, he led an army of 70,000 troops, with Zhou Yu, Huang Gai, Cheng Pu, Han Dang, Taishi Ci and other generals, stationed at the east gate of Xuchang!

And Sun Ce also captured the Pei Kingdom in Yuzhou, which is also the land of Longxing, the original Han emperor Liu Bang!

In today's Yuzhou, there is only one Xuchang under Cao Cao's command. There are 5,000 forbidden troops in the city, and some second- and third-rate civil servants under Cao Cao's command!

However, it is the top scholar Zhong Yao who is in charge of Xuchang's defense!

Speaking of Zhong Yao, he can be considered a first-class talent, both in government and military affairs, and his son Zhong Hui, they can be regarded as representatives of the Three Kingdoms.

In a mere city, there are 263 princes from all over the world stationed, and there is no immediate war, which is surprising!

Of course, it is estimated that at this moment, neither Liu Biao nor Sun Ce want to easily provoke Yuan Xi, who destroyed Cao Cao with a great victory!

Otherwise, there would never have been such restraint!

And in Xuchang City at this moment, after Cao Ang died, Cao Cao's eldest son, Cao Pi, was also anxious at the moment!

In the palace, Liu Xie also showed a look of horror, and he spoke uneasy to all the civil and military officials below!

"My dear ministers, the prime minister has passed away, Yuan Xi's army has already invaded the city, and Sun Ce and Liu Biao are coming. What should we do?"

Although, Liu Xie was very happy when he first heard that Cao Cao died in battle!

After all, this powerful minister has finally died, so it should be the emperor himself!

In this way, he can also learn from Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, clean up the old mountains and rivers again, and create a great Han again!

However, the ideal is very beautiful, the reality is very skinny!

Liu Xie panicked when Yuan Xi's army broke through Chen State and Liang State and entered Xudu in the hinterland of Yingchuan!

Not only was he panicked, but all the civil and military officials of the dynasty were panicked!

Now that there are only 5,000 soldiers and horses in the city, how can they stop Yuan Xi's army of millions?

What's more, there are two princes Liu Biao and Sun Ce attacking!

Although Liu Biao is also a clan of the Han family, he has already recognized the emperor Liu He in Hebei as the emperor!

This means that even if it is Liu Biao, it is absolutely impossible for him to be the help of Liu Xie!

Not to mention, Cao Pi and others who still have a grudge against Yuan Xi at the moment!

Facing such a situation, Zhong Yao is also helpless, he can only say that he will try his best to strive for some benefits under the confrontation between the three factions!
