Chapter 358: In the spring of 6 years, Chu Zi tried to attack me (1)

The latest website: Jiaodong Linglong Gold Mine, which produces 300 taels of gold this month, and is expected to produce 1,000 taels of gold per month in the future. There are still many gold mines in Dongnae County that have not yet been explored. If it can produce ten thousand taels of gold a month, it can support tens of thousands of elite soldiers. "

"The merchant ships to Dongying are ready in Qu County. This time there are 134 merchant ships. Dongdu school lieutenant Mi Zhu will go to Dongying again to preside over the trade. The forces of Hirado City Lord Ping Yoshimori are still there, and he sent 80 Dongying ships during the period. Come to Xuzhou Quxian for trade."

"Quxian County and Xihai County are planning the ports according to the master said. Among them, Quxian County has six-level shipyards and six-level docks..."

"According to the lord's order, in addition, Penglai Port was built in Huang County, the prefecture of Donglai County, and Weihaiwei was established to conduct multilateral trade with Liaodong, Gaoli and Dongying."

"Salt fields are widely distributed in various ports, and the annual salt production can satisfy tens of thousands of people. All sea salt is monopolized by the government, and the price is controlled. If the price of sea salt is increased by ten copper coins, you can get hundreds of thousands of taels of silver."

...

After Sang Hongyang became Minister of Economy, he reported to Chutian about the economic development of the territory.

Sang Hongyang presides over macroeconomics and Mi Zhu presides over foreign trade. The two cooperate with each other to reduce the burden of summer coolness.

Xia Liang now takes care of his children wholeheartedly, but only occasionally provides advice, without personally taking care of the economy.

"Let Mi Zhu pay close attention to the situation in Dongying and win over the samurai and merchant class of Kyushu. As for the farmers of Dongying, just exploit them."

Chu Tian deployed Prince Yan in Monan, and at the same time made Mi Zhu pay attention to the situation in Dongying and make arrangements for the four directions. If we unify the Eastern Han Dynasty in the future, we must attack everywhere and sweep the whole country.

Arrange the pieces in advance, and it will be easier in the future.

"The governing office of Jiujiang County has been transferred from Yinling County to Shouchun City, and Shouchun City has become the center of Huainan. The subordinates have opened up 300,000 mu of new fertile fields to appease the exiles and recruit more than 20,000 bandits and bandits. Shouchun defends The Legion and the Hefei Defensive Corps have been formed to repair the walls of Shouchun City and Hefei City, and build fortifications..."

Liu Fu, the prefect of Jiujiang, came to Xiacheng and reported to Chutian about the administration of Huainan.

Huainan is an extremely important territory. The unknown prefect Liu Fu took care of Huainan for Chu Tian and promoted farming in Huainan, comforted the people, recruited bandits, and turned Huainan into a granary.

Hefei was guarded by Xu Sheng, Zang Ba, and Sun Guan to resist the forces of Lujiang Prefect Tongque infiltrating Huainan.

"Have you placed a scout in Lujiang County? What is the threat from Lujiang?"

"A hundred scouts have been sent to places such as Shuxian County and Wanxian County. As long as there is a large-scale mobilization of troops and horses in Lujiang, they can be immediately noticed, and Xu Sheng, Zang Ba, and Sun Guanzhu will be notified to defend. Lujiang Prefect. Leading the main force, known as the Beifu Army, aggressively attacked Wu County. Wu County Yan Baihu and the local alien lords were defeated. Among them, Yan Baihu was captured and killed by the Beifu Army. If the bronze bird gets to Kuaiji County again, it is very likely that he will spy on Huainan."

"He may also go to fight Jingzhou. Increase the penetration of Jiangnan."

Chutian had to guard against the northern army of Tongque.

The Beifu army is powerful, conquering Danyang County and Wu County one after another, and then annexing Huiji County and Yuzhang County, Tongque will own Jiangnan, Minnan, Jiangxi and other places, and become the great princes in Jiangdong.

Although Tongque always bears the title of Lujiang Prefect, he is actually an out-and-out Yangzhou Mu, and few princes in Jiangdong are his opponents.

If the direction of Tongque's expansion changes to Huainan, it means that Chu Tian will allocate half of its troops to confront it.

Chu Tian would rather he go to fight Jingzhou than to fight the Beifu army in Huainan so quickly.

"Guangling County has opened up 500,000 mu of fertile land this year, built 13 dams, and opened more than 100 miles of canals. The main focus is on flood control. Huai River is the foundation of Guangling, but every rainy season, Huai River is in trouble, destroying countless farmland and houses. Therefore, building water conservancy projects and advising farming mulberry are the key points of governance."

Chen Deng, the prefect of Guangling County, also returned to report on his achievements.

Guangling County and Jiujiang County actually belong to the Huainan area. They formed the Yangtze River defense line and blocked the lords from the south of the Yangtze River.

"Pengchengguo has a Ma Pingchuan, with a million acres of fertile land. The damage caused by the locust plague last year has basically subsided, and there will be gains this year.

Peng Guoxiang Wang Lang came to report from Pengcheng.

Every once in a while, the prefects from all over the world would come to Langya State to report on what they did. This is a part of the centralization of power, and they are also subject to supervision.

After listening to the reports from the crowd, Chu Tian made a few comments, and then sent the prefects from all over to return to his rule.

Civil ministers who can serve as prefects have basically 80 or more political attributes, and they are all big figures with good looks, and none of them are incapable. The only thing Chu Tian needs to consider is the relationship between the aristocratic families and their loyalty.

There is no shortage of civil servants in Xuzhou. These civil servants give Chu Tian no worries, and Chu Tian can deal with Cao Cao with confidence.

After Chu Tian rested for two months after the Battle of Xiaopei, the injuries of Saint Joan of Arc, Zhao Yun, Gongsun Ao and others were basically healed.

The servant regiment of Joan of Arc was used as cannon fodder by Chu Tian and was exhausted. Chu Tian simply arranged for her to serve in the Fifth Academy of the Northern Army.

In this way, Chu Tian was a little looking forward to the third national war.

The servant legion is blessed by the fanatical belief of Joan of Arc, which is very practical. The servants only receive half of their military pay, and they don’t need to pay a pension if they die. The cost of war is extremely low.

It's a pity that Chu Tian can only serve for himself by capturing foreign soldiers from prisoners of war. Unless he can occupy other civilized areas, he can continuously recruit servants.

At present, Joan of Arc's servant legion cannot be replenished in time and can only wait until the national war.

Chu Tian began to dispatch troops to the Yanzhou battlefield, hoping to completely eliminate Cao Cao who was entrenched in the East County, and annihilate the most powerful hero of the Three Kingdoms.

Xia Liang saw Chu Tian not long after he came back, and was about to set off again, so before Chu Tian left Langya Kingdom, he squeezed Chu Tian, ​​and then let Chu Tian go.

...

In the East County of Yanzhou, Cao Cao's forces reached the most dangerous moment. All the civil servants and generals under Cao Cao's command knew that Xuzhou Mu was planning to conquer Yanzhou himself, as if he was facing a major enemy.

Wherever Xuzhou Mu went, there was no hope of being invincible. This time, Chu Tian finally used his main generals to deal with Cao Cao.

"We must defeat Pang Juan before Chu Zimou arrives!"

"In the past five years, we have conquered the South and the North before we have today's territory. How can we give it to others!"

Cao Cao still wanted to resist Chu Zimou's oppression, swearing in Puyang City.

Cao Hong, Cao Chun, Xia Houyuan, Le Jin and other generals who were trapped in Puyang burst into tears. They finally found their current territory. As a result, they have been suppressed by Chu Zimou, and even Yanzhou cannot be unified.

At present, the forces of Cao Cao are only Dongjun and Chen Liu. Lost East County, only Chenliu County, Cao Cao is equivalent to a prefect.

"Get out of the city and fight Pang Juan to the death! Only by working together can we turn defeat into victory!"

Cao Cao spoke tragically and led the generals to fight against the city with 30,000 soldiers.

The wind is desolate and the water is cold, and the strong men never return.

Cao Cao felt like a tragic male protagonist. At the beginning, all foreigners in East County supported him. The development momentum of Cao Cao's forces is extremely good, and it has the potential to sweep the entire Yanzhou. Until Cao Cao met the man, the development of Cao Cao's influence stopped, and the territory became smaller and smaller, no longer the grand occasion of the year.

Cao Cao has been forced to a corner by Chu Zimou, and must work hard.

At night, Cao Cao led 30,000 soldiers and horses to fight to death with Pang Juan, Xu Rong, and Hua Xiong who surrounded Puyang City. He shouted and killed all civilians in Puyang City!

Pang Juan’s forces are at an advantage, but Cao Cao himself is the commander-in-chief, and there are many generals fighting to death, but to suppress Pang Juan!

Cao Chun led the Tigers and Leopards riding in the Pang Juan Army to fight back and forth, fighting bravely, he was really unwilling to hand over the territory that Cao Cao had laid to Xuzhou Mu!

Liu Ya shot Cao Chun's armor, and Cao Chun didn't realize it. The spear pierced Wei Wuzu's shield and nailed a Wei Wuzu to the ground! He pulled out the saber on his waist and ran into Pang Juan's army with heavy armor!

"The enemy has the ambition to fight to the death, so you can't fight with it!"

Guo Jia heard from Cao Jun’s shouting and killing that Cao Jun had the conviction to fight back, so he persuaded Pang Juan, Xu Rong and others to retreat.

Cao Cao contracted all his troops, and it was the moment of life and death. His soldiers were united, and Pang Juan could not deal with it.

Cao Cao's entire army aura blessed the generals of Cao and Wei. All the soldiers fought bravely. The new bow general Li Ling, who joined Cao Cao's command, shot 20 consecutive arrows and killed 17 enemies.

"Withdrawal!"

Pang Juan followed the advice of military master Guo Jia and personally led Wei Wu's queen. Guo Jia obviously has insight. When Guo Jia realized that the situation was not good for his army, he proposed to withdraw troops to avoid the entire army of Pang Juan from being annihilated.

Operation Cao is one of the top commanders of the Three Kingdoms, and he is determined to fight desperately against the generals and defeat the Pang Juan Legion!

Because Guo Jia proposed to withdraw troops in time, Pang Juan's regiment avoided heavy losses and retreated smoothly.

In the battle, Cao Jun lost only 3,000 people and killed more than 10,000 Pang Juan. Xu Rong was unable to use flexible tactics such as sneak attacks under the city of Puyang, and could only fight head-on with Cao Cao, but was defeated by Cao Cao.

Cao Cao made up his mind to fight, and all the soldiers were determined to fight to the death, and broke out a strong fighting force, expelling Pang Juan from the East County, with great momentum!

Not only that, Cao Cao regained confidence and pursued Pang Juan one after another!

"Cao Cao can still be so tenacious, he deserves to be the number one hero of the Three Kingdoms."

Gong Ziwen fought with Cao Cao for a long time, and he was very familiar with Cao Cao and knew about his abilities. Cao Cao was different from Yuan Shu. Even though Yuan Shu had ten counties, he was still betrayed by Chutian in Pengcheng.

But even if Cao Cao only has two counties, there is still the possibility of a comeback!

Unless Cao Cao is completely convinced, Cao Cao will give up resistance!

Cao Cao came up against adversity in the East County. Guo Jia's opponent was Xun You, who was quite a bit older. He could only do his best to protect the Pang Juan Army and set up suspected soldiers.

Gong Ziwen and Cao Cao saw each other, losing more and winning less, but he could disgust Cao Cao for two years, and he didn't care about losing once.

Gongziwen retreated to Dingtao, waiting for Chutian's main army to arrive.

"Cao thief is really difficult to deal with because of Xun's support."

Guo Jia still called Cao Cao the Cao thief, thinking that Cao Cao had the support of Xun You and Xun Yu, so he could defeat the Pang Juan Army.

Guo Jia's considerations are basically not biased.

If Cao Cao did not have the support of Xun You, Xun Yu, Cheng Yu and others, he might have been annihilated in this offensive long ago, how could he organize a counterattack?

After Cao Cao defeated Pang Juan, he went to attack Le Yi non-stop, trying to imitate Chu Tian and use the tactics of destroying one by one.

Le Yi heard that the Pang Juan Corps had failed, and gave up attacking Dong'e County and returned to Jibei. Also wait for Chu Tian to dispatch an army to attack Cao Cao.

At present, Cao Cao has three important cities under his control, Puyang City, held by Xun Yu, followed by Juan City, held by Xiahou Dun, and Dong'e County, held by Cao Ren and Man Chong.

The counterattack of Cao Cao's forces was very quick, and even Le Yi had to temporarily avoid his edge.

For a time, the counterattack of Cao Cao's forces caused quite a stir, and few people could achieve such a result under Chu Zimou's offensive. Cao Cao defeated the Pang Juan Corps and repelled the Le Yi Corps, which had only one main general, to the south of the Yellow River!

"If Cao Cao's power can develop, he can undoubtedly become a powerful prince, but why he develops in Yanzhou is right next to Chu Zimou. Chu Zimou is only now swinging his butcher knife at Cao Cao, and Cao Cao has jumped up and down. It's been too long. Fortunately, I didn't conspire against Chu Zi."

Gongziwen returned to Dingtao. Although he failed to eliminate Cao Cao this time, he still suffered a small loss due to the efforts of everyone in Cao Cao, but the problem was not big. Cao Cao won, but some of his troops were lost.

"General Wei Qing has arrived!"

During the rest period of Chu Tian, ​​Wei Qing commanded the Five Northern Army Academy, the Servants Corps, the Scout Corps and other main forces to Dingtao.

"Wei Qing..."

When Gong Ziwen heard the name of the commander, his head went blank.

Wei Qing, one of the double walls of the Han Empire, was actually under Chu Zimou's command!

However, if you consider that Chu Tian participated in the Battle of Mobei, as the first place, winning a Wei Qing, it seems not too much.

"Lord, Xuzhou is here for herding!"

The soldier in charge of guarding the teleportation array came to report to Gongziwen urgently.

"He is finally here!"

After Gong Ziwen lost to Cao Cao again, he heard that Chu Tian had finally come personally, so he led Pang Juan to meet.

"Gong Ziwen, I heard that you lost to Cao Cao."

Chu Tian led Zhao Yun, Saint Joan of Arc, Li Xiuning, Gongsun Ao, Tai Shici and other generals to The quality of the generals was so high that Gongzi Wendu was eye-catching.

Gongziwen explained for himself: "Cao Mengde may be a king-level or imperial-level commander, and Xun You is the mastermind. It is normal to lose to him..."

"From now on, your army will be handed over to me to command, and Pang Juan will be loyal to me, and you will still be the prefect of Jiyin County."

Chu Tian formally took over the power of Gongziwen and annexed the two counties owned by Gongziwen-Jiyin County and Shanyang County.

"Final General Pang Juan is willing to work for his lord!"

Under the sign of Gongziwen, he cancelled his loyalty relationship with Gongziwen and formally became loyal to Chutian.

Pang Juan is not a first-rate commander, but there are elite Wei Wu soldiers and heavy infantry.

"According to my deployment, attack Cao Cao with all my strength!"

In the sixth year of the lord’s calendar, Cao Cao’s book records: In the spring of the sixth year, Muchuzi of Xuzhou tried to attack me and the generals fought...
