Chapter 353
"Military Advisor, Cao Mengde's great army has been stationed here all this time. Apart from plundering a bit of grain and fodder, they have remained completely motionless. What is the reason for this?"
Leading an army alone for the first time, Seeing Dian Wei scratched his head in a daze and asked Cheng Yu!
This time, because three great armies were attacking!
Lin Yang did not have enough generals under his command, so he could only let Seeing Dian Wei lead the army, with Cheng Yu accompanying him as Military Advisor!
Although Seeing Dian Wei was the one leading the army, everything had to be done according to Cheng Yu's instructions!
"E Lai, there are some things that do not necessarily have to be obtained through battle!"
He glanced at Seeing Dian Wei; it was normal for the latter not to understand!
Casting a glance at Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin to the side, Cheng Yu also understood!
Lin Yang had handed over all the military affairs here to him!
These three were all martial generals!
"Youping, arrange for one thousand soldiers to transport one hundred thousand shi of grain and fodder and send it to the Cao army opposite us!"
As soon as Cheng Yu spoke, Seeing Dian Wei, Zhou Tai, and the others on the field were all stunned!
What?
Sending grain to the enemy as soon as they arrived?
This, why is this?
"Hmm?"
With his brows slightly furrowed, Cheng Yu looked at the shocked Zhou Tai and asked in confusion!
"Understood!"
Reacting from his shock, Zhou Tai did not say much more and went directly to make the arrangements!
In any case, Lin Yang had ordered the three of them to listen to everything Cheng Yu said!
So, whatever Cheng Yu said, they would just do it!
After a short while, watching the soldiers transporting the grain out, Cheng Yu's expression also became solemn!
"It seems that under Cao Mengde's command, there are also troublesome strategists!"
Cheng Yu sighed; Cao Mengde remaining motionless had caused all of his plans to fall through!
It seems that the person behind Cao Mengde giving him advice is not simple either!
With this, Cheng Yu also felt a sense of oppression from the unknown!
Just as Cheng Yu was sending the grain, on the other side in Qingzhou, in the land of Dongpingling
"Military Advisor, Cao Mengde's great army has been stationed at the border for more than half a month now, why haven't they taken action yet!"
In the land of Dongpingling, Yuan Benchu's one hundred thousand-strong army was also stationed there!
Because of Lord Gongsun Zan of Youzhou, Yuan Benchu did not arrive this time!
Instead, Tian Feng personally requested to serve as the Military Advisor under Yan Liang, specifically coming to the land of Qingzhou!
"General Yan Liang, there is no need to pay attention to it. This time Cao Mengde is attacking Xuzhou, he is clearly harboring malicious intent!"
Tian Feng curled his lips. The reason he personally requested to come was because the water in this Xuzhou battle was too deep!
It appeared to be three families sending troops to attack Xuzhou!
But in reality, it was an invisible confrontation between strategists!
Once a wrong step is taken, it is very likely that the great army will be plunged into danger!
Therefore!
He had to come personally!
"Oh? Then Military Advisor, what should we do next!"
Compared to Yuan Benchu, a great general like Yan Liang was quite willing to listen to Tian Feng!
As a great general under Yuan Benchu, Yan Liang had self-awareness regarding his status as a martial general!
In battlefield slaughter, he could hold his ground against ten thousand!
But when it came to marching and fighting, or devising strategies, he was truly not up to the task!
And!
He was not Yuan Benchu; he did not have the authority to command Tian Feng!
"General Yan Liang, now that we have taken Jinan Commandery, we only need to march east and take the two commanderies of Le'an and Qi!"
Tian Feng spoke, which left Yan Liang stunned!
Taking the two commanderies of Le'an and Qi is enough?
Yuan Benchu's order was to take the four commanderies of Qingzhou, right?
"Military Advisor, we are not attacking Beihai Commandery?"
Yan Liang was a bit bewildered; he could not understand such an arrangement!
When armies go to war, how come Tian Feng and Yuan Benchu's plans were different?
"We are not attacking. After taking Qi Commandery, we will return to Zhu'a County in Pingyuan Commandery to station!"
Pointing to the location of Pingyuan Commandery on the map, Tian Feng directly planned the next step of action!
"This!"
For a moment, Yan Liang looked at this layout, his thinking unable to keep up!
The remaining two commanderies of Qingzhou were in the east of Qingzhou!
And this Pingyuan Commandery was in the far west of Qingzhou!
Zhu'a County was also a place bordering Xuzhou, and it also bordered Yanzhou!
What is this Tian Feng trying to do?
"Military Advisor, my lord ordered us to conquer Qingzhou. Changing the stationing location without authorization like this, I cannot make the decision!"
Yan Liang said, and the meaning behind his words was very simple!
He needed to send a message back to Yuan Benchu about this matter, and let Yuan Benchu make the decision!
After all!
It was agreed upon at the beginning that they would attack Beihai Commandery!
Now that they had just occupied one commandery of Qingzhou, they were not following the agreement; as the commander-in-chief of the army, he could not make that call!
"Fine, General Yan Liang can first occupy the two commanderies of Le'an and Qi, and then wait for my lord's reply!"
Tian Feng was slightly helpless, but at this moment, this was all he could do!
At the same time, he would also write a letter to Yuan Benchu to explain his plan!
Now!
He could only hope that his plan would succeed!
Otherwise, no one could predict the situation that would follow!
Qingzhou, Beihai Commandery, the land of Pingshou
"Gongjin, you have finally come!"
In Pingshou County, Huang Zhong, who was stationed there with his seventy thousand-strong army, looked at the arriving Zhou Yu and welcomed him warmly!
The pressure on Huang Zhong for this great battle was self-evident!
The operation of a seventy thousand-strong army was no child's play!
The layout, command, and so on of the great army all required someone to assist from the side!
Although Chen Deng was a Military Advisor sent by Lin Yang!
His experience was still insufficient!
He was left in the rear by Huang Zhong to lead ten thousand troops and maintain the supply of grain and fodder!
"General Hansheng, how is the war situation now?"
Having just led Han Dang to arrive, looking at this middle-aged man in his forties, Zhou Yu was also slightly surprised!
Is this the fierce general who is already over forty years old and can still fight fiercely with Yan Liang and Wen Chou?
With such a fierce general in hand, this Qingzhou can be plotted against!
"Look, Yuan Benchu's one hundred thousand-strong army has already captured Jinan Commandery, and the great army is stationed there!"
Pointing to the place where Yuan Benchu's great army was currently located, a sharp light could not help but appear in Zhou Yu's eyes!
"Tsk tsk, with such a slow rate of advance, it seems that this land of Qingzhou will eventually fall into my lord's hands!"
Zhou Yu said; Yuan Benchu's army advancing so slowly actually gave him an opportunity!
"General Hansheng, have the things my lord planted all been harvested?" ===== CHAPTER 354 =====
