Chapter 157

"My lord, I agree with Yuantan's suggestion!"

Wang Can off to the side, at this moment, also spoke up, expressing his agreement with Gu Yong's suggestion!

"I once heard the lord and Mr. Zhongde say, build high walls and store grain widely, and I think this is very correct!"

Guangling Commandery now has over nine hundred thousand people under its command!

Lin Yang has sufficient food supplies in his hands and can completely recruit more refugees to expand the army!

There is no need to rush for a moment and start a war with Tao Gongzu!

Now competing for Xuzhou, once the war is deadlocked, there is danger!

Listening to the suggestions of Gu Yong and Wang Can, Lin Yang also nodded and expressed his approval of the two!

According to the normal situation!

The suggestions of Gu Yong and Wang Can are undoubtedly the most secure!

As long as he secretly accumulates strength!

Relying on the supply of materials from his reputation marketplace, he can absolutely expand the current troops by another fold!

At that time, fighting Tao Qian, the chances of winning will be greater!

But!

This is under ideal conditions!

In one year, Lin Yang is developing, and others will also be developing!

Moreover!

The speed of others' development might exceed Lin Yang's!

If Lin Yang remembers correctly!

In the middle of this year!

A massive uprising movement will break out again in Qingzhou and Yanzhou!

The Qingzhou Yellow Turbans will make a comeback and sweep across several provinces!

And in the end, the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans were pacified by Boss Cao!

Boss Cao directly gained hundreds of thousands of people and one hundred thousand troops!

He organized the elites among them into the Qingzhou Army and took Yanzhou in one fell swoop!

With this!

Boss Cao's strength increased greatly, and he joined the ranks of the top warlords in the world!

And Xuzhou is right next to Yanzhou!

This means!

If he can't handle Xuzhou this year!

Then next, when he wants to conquer Tao Qian again, he will have to be distracted to guard against Boss Cao!

A Tao Qian, whose mind is played so dirty!

Facing an owl like Boss Cao, Lin Yang needs to be extra careful!

And this is just the first point!

The second point is the war in Nanyang!

I heard that in the Battle of Nanyang, Yuan Shu led his troops to return in time, not only blocking Sun Jian's attack but also showing signs of forcing Sun Jian back!

This is also not good news for Lin Yang!

Sun Jian!

The Tiger of Jiangdong!

Although he is the Grand Administrator of Changsha, he is a person from Jiangdong!

Lin Yang doesn't know if this guy will return to Jiangdong if he is defeated!

Now that he is in this chaotic world, wanting to compete with Yuan Benchu, Cao Mengde, and others, the choices left for him are not many!

First take Xuzhou, then attack Yangzhou!

Only by taking the land of two provinces can he be qualified to advance west into Yuzhou and Jingzhou, and use this to compete with the northern warlords!

Once Sun Jian is defeated and returns to Jiangdong!

Relying on the Jiangdong elites under his command, the group of people in Yangzhou now will definitely not be his opponent!

Once Yangzhou is occupied by Sun Jian!

Even if he occupies Xuzhou by then, he will be besieged by the heroes!

Block Yuan Benchu in the north, block Cao Mengde in the west, block Sun Wentai in the south!

Just thinking about this situation makes Lin Yang feel exceptionally stimulated!

"No, I must get Xuzhou done before Boss Cao and Sun Wentai rise!"

The thirteen provinces of the world, there is only so much space!

One step slow, every step slow!

He doesn't have to take Yanzhou!

But Xuzhou and Yangzhou must be taken!

This is the place to settle down!

"I have already known your suggestions!"

The hall was silent for a long time, and Lin Yang finally spoke!

For a moment, following Lin Yang's words, everyone's gaze could not help but look over!

Next!

Lin Yang's choice will determine the future direction of Guangling Commandery!

Once the war starts, the entire Xuzhou will be ignited with monstrous flames of war!

And if he endures, the situation in Guangling Commandery will be pushed in another direction!

Under the gaze of everyone, Lin Yang also spoke slowly, setting the tone for this matter!

Meanwhile, in Guanglingcheng

"What choice will this Lin Ziyuan make?"

What Chen Gui could think of, Chen Deng also thought of!

He had already been in this Guanglingcheng for nearly half a month!

The reason why he didn't rush to visit Lin Yang!

Was that he was waiting for Lin Yang to make the final choice!

If Lin Yang chooses to fight!

Chen Deng would be willing to go up and help!

If the other party chose to endure!

Then Chen Deng would also have to consider it!

"Drive... drive..."

Accompanied by several war horses galloping in the city, Chen Deng, seeing this scene, had his expression slightly startled!

Zhao Yun and Taishi Ci have come out!

There is a result!

Moreover!

Looking at the way these people left the city, Lin Yang has already made a choice!

And just as Chen Deng was waiting here, on the other side, in Xuzhou, in Bai Mahu, a wooden boat was floating on the lake!

At the bow of the boat, a young man with a free and easy personality was drinking wine and chanting poetry, as if waiting for a friend!

"Young Master, a fast horse has gone straight to Xuzhou!"

Just at this moment, a book boy came over in a hurry to report!

Hearing that a fast horse had galloped away, a smile appeared on the young man's face!

"Hahaha, this Lin Ziyuan is interesting!"

Laughing in his mouth, the young man took a sip of wine, and then ordered the boatman to go down the river and head straight for Guangling!

As time passed bit by bit, a few days later, in Xuzhou City

"Report, urgent fast horse!"

Following the war horse transmitted from the direction of Huaiyin, everyone in Xuzhou City had their expressions change!
