At The Beginning of The Game, The Five Tiger Generals Were Intercepted

Street kiosk!

Hearing the word Jieting, everyone tensed up again.

If there is a crisis in Jieting, let alone conquering the counties west of Longshan, I am afraid that the whole army will immediately gather to support.

If the Jieting was breached by the Xianbei, then the Yizhou army would immediately face a greater threat than Han Sui's 400,000 Qiang army before.

Losing the street pavilion, there will be no terrain for the Yizhou army to contain the powerful enemy, and no way to block the passage. The entire Hanyang County will let the Xianbei gallop!

"Speak quickly!"

Liu Zhang's tone was anxious, but he never believed that Jieting would fall.

Even if Lu Su couldn't defeat the Xianbei people, he could still keep the Xianbei people out of the street pavilion by relying on fortifications.

"My lord, the army division of Lu urgently reported that the Xianbei people gave up Jieting and led the army straight to Fufeng County!"

Hearing this news, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

It was a false alarm. It turned out that the Xianbei people evacuated the street pavilion.

"How is Jieting now? Did Army Master Lu ask you to bring me a message?"

The soldier nodded quickly, and reported to Liu Zhang exactly what Lu Su told him.

"My lord, Lu Junjun speculates that the Xianbei people had to retreat because they ran out of food and grass."

"The crisis in Jieting is basically resolved now. If the lord needs it, the Army Division of Lu can dispatch 20,000 troops from Jieting to come to support!"

Liu Zhang's heart warmed, and Lu Su really had a heart.

As soon as Jieting was relieved of the crisis, Lu Su wanted to share the pressure for Liu Zhang. It is hard for the monarch not to like such a caring courtier.

"Go back and tell Lu Junjun that the battle in Yuzhong is over, and let him guard the street pavilion to prevent the Xianbei people from leaving and returning."

"Obey!"

"Go."

Liu Zhang waved his hand, and the soldiers didn't dare to delay, so they immediately got up and returned to the street pavilion.

Although the Xianbei people will not go back and forth, but the more than 30,000 soldiers in Yuzhong are enough, and Liu Zhang doesn't need to waste his troops in vain.

"My lord, the threat from the Xianbei people is gone, can we march into Hexi?"

Fazheng was still somewhat reluctant to part with the land of Hexi, in his opinion, it only needed a few thousand troops to take it.

"No, we are maintaining our original plan."

The news of Jieting did not change Liu Zhang's mind, and he still did not adopt Fazheng's opinion.

"Mr. Cheng."

Cheng Gongying got up quickly and waited for Liu Zhang's orders.

"My lord."

"Please ask Mr. Cheng to take the post of prefect of Jincheng temporarily."

Cheng Gongying was very surprised by Liu Zhang's decision. Jincheng was so important that he was handed over to a person who had just surrendered.

"My lord, isn't it appropriate for me to be the prefect of Jincheng..."

Rather than letting Liu Zhang's counselors raise objections, Cheng Gongying felt that it would be better to raise it himself.

After all, he is Han Sui's old minister, and it is inevitable that he will be criticized as the prefect of Han Sui's lair.

Liu Zhang chuckled a few times, and gave Cheng Gongying a reassuring look.

"Mr. Cheng, you don't have to think too much, I also have a heavy trust for you."

"Also ask the lord to make it clear."

"There are ten counties in Jincheng. I want you to assist the army to conquer the counties in Jincheng County and try to persuade them to surrender."

Jincheng County is Han Sui's hometown. He has been running here for more than ten years, so there must be many loyal people.

Let Cheng Gongying be the prefect of Jincheng in order to appease the hearts of the people in the counties of Jincheng County.

If every city is resisting, it will undoubtedly be a very headache.

"I take orders!"

Cheng Gongying did not hesitate, and immediately surrendered.

From the moment he decided to submit to Liu Zhang, he was ready to do his best to help Liu Zhang.

"Ziyi."

"The end is here!"

Tai Shici heard Liu Zhang's call, and quickly got up to obey his orders.

"You will lead Wu Fengying and Mr. Cheng Gong to conquer all the counties in Jincheng."

"The general obeys orders!"

"Everything is based on Mr. Cheng Gong's opinion."

Other counties may not have any problems, but Jincheng County will definitely have the power to continue to resist.

Even if Cheng Gongying goes out in person, it will take a lot of twists and turns, and it will take a lot of time.

Cheng Gongying was greatly moved by Liu Zhang's order, but he didn't expect to let the earliest Tai Shici personally ask him to listen to his opinion.

"My lord, don't worry, I will definitely say that all counties in Jincheng County will surrender!"

"Ok!"

Naturally, there is no problem in regaining Jincheng County, the main thing is whether they can not fight.

Cheng Gongying has such determination, Liu Zhang can naturally put his heart in his stomach.

"Gongda."

"What are your orders, my lord?"

"Send someone to order Zhang Liao and Xu Huang to quickly occupy the entire territory of Longxi County and Wuwei County."

"Obey!"

Xun You has no objection, and this order is very suitable for the current situation.

"By the way, send someone back to Chengdu to ask Wen He about the food situation."

Xun You frowned slightly, and there was a trace of sadness between his brows.

Long before Liu Zhang sent troops, he gave Jia Xu a secret order to buy grain through the chamber of commerce.

Xun You knew about this, but the effect was not very good.

"My lord, grain harvests in Jingzhou and Yangzhou are in short supply this year. In addition, wars broke out in the Central Plains, Hebei, and Jiangdong. I'm afraid the procurement of grain is not ideal."

"However, my lord, there is no need to worry too much. The food in Hanzhong County and Hanyang County can still last for a year."

Soldiers suffered heavy casualties in the successive battles, but the consumption of food was also greatly reduced.

There are civilian villages and military villages in Yizhou. As long as they last until the harvest season, the food will be full immediately.

"Gongda, how much food can we use now?"

"this…"

Seeing Xun You's serious and sad expression, Liu Zhang knew that it must not be good news.

"Say it!"

"There are two million stones left..."

Hearing the number of two million, everyone in the room showed expressions of horror.

Fears vary, though, with some fearing too much and others feeling too little.

Ma Chao, Pang De, Cheng Gongying and others almost dropped their jaws in shock. They had no idea what kind of figure two million shi grains were.

I'm afraid I have never seen so much food and grass in my life!

If they had this food and grass before, why bother to find Liu Zhang desperately every day?

I am afraid that the offensive and defensive sides will be completely reversed, and it is the Yizhou army who are watching and sighing under the city of Yuzhong.

However, Pang Tong, Fazheng and others also had disbelief in their astonished eyes.

Two million stones are piled up into a mountain, and it is an astronomical figure to be placed in any party.

If Cao Cao had received two million shi of grain during the Battle of Guandu, he would not be unable to fight Yuan Shao with troops.

But for the Yizhou Army, two million is an unacceptable number.

Because before sending troops to Hanzhong, Liu Zhang mobilized five million stones, grain and grass!

With only one hundred thousand troops, three million stones were consumed in less than a year?

This is indeed too appalling!

Although Liu Zhang was mentally prepared, he still found it hard to accept this number.

He wanted to say something, but couldn't say anything.
