People wrote diaries in the Three Kingdoms, and Cao Cao became paralyzed.

Chapter 108

Cao Cao's face was full of helplessness, and he added:

"He didn't let me tell you that, but I did."

"I just want you to know that the entire Cao Army doesn't want to see anything wrong with you."

Lin Anxin was touched, but he quickly covered up his emotions and assured:

"This is the last time."

"Next time, if you want me to go, I won't go."

Lin An stretched his waist and turned to look at the main hall of Wei Jun's Taishou Mansion, the corners of his eyes slightly wet.

Avoiding Cao Cao's gaze, he said expectantly for a while:

"If you want to go, hurry up, get Bao Xin done, and he and Meng Zhuo will jointly lobby Yanzhou and others."

"If they agree, Yuan Wei will not be able to accept it."

"At that time, let's see if the main hall of the prefecture pastoral mansion is more luxurious than the Taishou mansion."

Cao Cao stood up with a smile and said directly:

"Hahaha, that's for sure."

"However, Yuan Wei's pass, I'm afraid it won't pass so easily."

The corners of Lin An's mouth rose:

"If you can't get by, then fight it."

"Taking Wei County this time can almost be said to be a no-brainer."

"That Yuan brothers have always felt that we will only be opportunistic and scheming."

"This time, let them see the strength of our army."

It's gotten to this point.

Cao Jun already has enough confidence to show his arms.

No need to hide and tuck like before.

"Good!"

Cao Cao's eyes were like a torch, and a fierce fire burned in his heart.

If they really took the entire Yanzhou, their strength would accumulate even faster.

It is getting closer and closer to that ultimate goal.

After some exclamation.

The two directly left the Taishou Mansion of Wei County, straightened out the soldiers and horses, and one cavalry team after another quickly rushed towards the direction of Puyang.

Take the entire Wei County in seven days

This is indeed opportunistic.

Departure from Wei County

Everyone rushed directly back to Puyang.

Following Lin An's instructions, Cao Cao personally rushed to Jibei with a small team from Dian Wei and Xiaohu Battalion to visit Bao Xin.

As for Lin An

Naturally, I went back to Puyang to sleep.

The army returns

For the entire Puyang, it also caused a lot of commotion.

After all

It had been more than half a month since the last expedition of the army.

No one knows for what.

I didn't expect to come back so soon.

And

The soldiers and horses seem to have more.

Puyang had 15,000 soldiers, and Cao Cao's soldiers went to various places to meet Lin An in five ways.

Now that the combined troops have returned from one place, the number has directly become 20,000.

This still left 5,000 people for Cao Hong, plus 10,000 horses who had collected Wei County.

Otherwise

The effect is even more impressive than that.

At the city gate

Xi Zhicai, Mi Zhu and other officials of the Eastern County had already received the news and were waiting at the city gate.

Looking at Lin An on the horse, Xia Zhicai and the others were full of smiles, and saluted:

"Welcome Mr. Triumph."

Lin An smiled and waved his hand,

"You don't have to be polite, the army is triumphant, kill pigs and sheep, and reward the three armies."

If you win a battle, the reward must be rewarded.

If Liu Dai hadn't died suddenly, this celebration banquet would have been held when he was in Wei County.

Now I can only go back to Puyang and get it again.

"Don't worry, sir, the wine and food have already been prepared, all the way into the city, right?"

Lin An nodded and waved his hand towards Zhao Yun, Cao Chun, Yu Ban, and Le Jin behind him:

"Into town!"

The order was quickly transmitted from the front army to the rear army.

An army of 20,000 marched into the city.

Everyone went to arrange, and Lin An, Xia Zhicai, and Mi Zhu temporarily gathered together for a small meeting.

"Wei Jun let Zi Lian stay in the town."

"In addition to the five thousand soldiers and horses left here, the eight thousand defenders left in Wei County and the two thousand defenders from each county were all integrated, and then let Zi Lian recruit five thousand soldiers and horses."

"Twenty thousand troops guarding Wei County should be enough for now."

"The eldest brother has now gone to Jibei to persuade Bao Xin to come forward to persuade the Yanzhou officials to support the eldest brother as the Yanzhou pastor."

Lin An first told the two of them the matter simply.

Xia Zhicai also nodded immediately:

"I will instruct the Ministry of Works to transport stirrups, horseshoes, saddles, and crossbows to Wei County first, and first equip Wei County's 20,000 troops."

"Also, if Zi Lian needs some manpower, after the talent selection on the East County side, he can transfer two people who handle government affairs to the past..."

Xia Zhi naturally knows.

The capture of Wei County this time is opportunistic, and it will definitely lead to Yuan Shao's counterattack in the future.

Plan ahead, Wei County is actually the most dangerous place.

Lin An nodded with a smile and explained:

"It does take a few people to send over."

"The situation in Wei County is complicated, and the original Wei County officials have left some."

"During this time, you also help coordinate some and strive to let Zilian take these powers into his own hands."

"It's best to let the officials of the original Wei County be transferred to another county."

"Good!"

Xia Zhi smiled heartily, naturally knowing what Lin An meant.

meantime

Lin An asked again:

"How much of the ordnance has been rebuilt during this time?"

"I see that the soldiers and horses gathered this time, the horse sets and equipment are basically ready, right?"

Xia Zhicai nodded and reported:

"Puyang's 15,000 soldiers and horses have all been equipped."

"Stirrups, saddle, horseshoes, plus crossbows, each crossbow guarantees at least twenty arrows."

"At present, there will be another batch of equipment of nearly five thousand people, which was originally intended to be sent to Miaocai."

"Now since Zi Lian needs it, let's give it to Zi Lian first."

Lin An nodded.

The speed of this forging was far from keeping up with the speed of the expansion of their team.

Counting the 20,000 horses added this time, the strength of the Cao army must add up to more than 70,000.

In a flash, he rushed to the 100,000 mark.

"And sir, you explained before leaving, a separate forging department was established to be responsible for creating armor weapons, and now there are five thousand sets of equipment out."

"However, without Mr. Wang's instructions, it is not equipped into the army for the time being."

"The weapon is sharp enough to easily slice through our original armor."

"The armor is so hard that ordinary bows and arrows cannot penetrate even at close range."

"However, the weight is almost a third heavier than before, and I don't know if the soldiers can adapt."

Speaking of this

Xia Zhicai immediately became excited.

Lin An

It's really a strange person.

Lin An nodded in satisfaction and said:

"A third of the weight is nothing, if you can't adapt to this, then don't be a soldier."

"These armors are first equipped from the original soldiers."

"After training for so long, their fitness should have improved and it should be easier to adapt."

"Get them used to it as soon as possible."

"This Yanzhou incident is likely to be a battle in which our army is fighting."

As soon as these words came out, Mi Zhu on the side said with some solemnity:

"Sir, do you mean that this time there will be a war in the end?"

Xia Zhicai explained thoughtfully:

"Sir, I'm afraid it's Yuan Wei."

Lin An nodded.

After experiencing the events of Wei County, the Yuan family will definitely not give up.

Moreover, even if there was no contradiction before.

Liu Dai's death is a great opportunity for us, but it is also a great opportunity for Yuan Wei.

But anyone who is a little ambitious will probably not miss it.

"Yes!"

"When this negotiation is over, I will immediately instruct the Forge Division to send the equipment to the barracks."

Lin An nodded again and asked Mi Zhu:

"How's the plan going?"

"There's nothing wrong with Zifang, right?"

Seeing the mention of himself, Mi Zhu also fixed his mind:

"The second brother's side is basically finished."

"The Mi family's main industries have basically all been transferred to the four counties."

"Now all that's left is some finishing touches."

"It won't be long before you can come to Puyang to join us."

Lin nodded calmly, and Mi Zhu continued:

"In the month of your absence, sir, the three counties have already built the workshop."

"All kinds of talents have started to move into the workshop, and production is already beginning to bear fruit."

"The goods are almost hoarded."

"I will inform my second brother to send some merchants from all over the country to arrange to enter the Wei army and run its market."

"Strive to open the passage to Jizhou through Wei County."

Lin An nodded in satisfaction and said directly:

"Since it's almost ready, let's start supply."

"Changes in local policies do not need to be stopped without affecting commercial circulation."

"Of course, those who go to various places must set up a commercial escort to ensure the safety of these goods."

Lin An said, looking at Xia Zhicai's side,

"You will help implement and prepare for this, and the transportation of money and food in various places also needs to be protected by escorts."

"Once the caravan is out of our army, other counties are not obliged to ensure our safety."

Xia Zhicai clearly agreed:

"Good."

"It's just that the training of the convoy is also entrusted to the military camp for unified training?"

"Among the several generals, who will be selected?"

Since it is a convoy for commercial protection, it naturally does not participate in marching battles and daily military movements.

Lin An pondered and was considering a candidate, but Mi Zhu hurriedly said:

"Sir, the matter of military training, my second brother and I can do it." (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) ）

As soon as these words came out, Lin An's eyes also lit up, and he said with a smile:

"I almost forgot about your brothers."

"In that case, the convoy will not go to the official side, but every soldier needs to be registered and ensure their own discipline."

"And the critical period, really to that point, but also the soldiers who went to the battlefield."

"The number of people is tentatively set at 2,000, and when everything is ready, it will not be too late to expand."

"Yes!"

Mi Zhu answered again excitedly.

Commanding troops

This is also one of his and Mi Fang's dreams.

Although they are only training the convoy now, their dream is now considered to be another realization.

Lin went on to add:

"By the way, get ready, in addition to the current four counties, the remaining four counties in Yanzhou can also be prepared and arranged."

"Yanzhou, we are bound to win."

"The net is almost ready, it's time to get into the water and fish."

"Yes!"

Mi Zhu answered again.

My heart became more and more excited.

This month

It's all in preparation.

Now that Lin An has returned, and the preparations are almost the same, it is the first step in the three-step strategy to show his strength.

After a little meeting

Another congress took place.

Of course

The main purpose of the conference was to readjust the arrangements for some things after Cao Hong's absence.

Originally, Cao Hong was the commander of the previous 15,000 Puyang defenders, and Cao Chun, Lejin, and Yu Ban served as deputy generals.

Now I'm bringing Lejin out.

Led by Lejin, he commanded the remaining 10,000 troops, with Cao Chun as an adjutant general.

Zhao Yun, according to Cao Cao's previous arrangement, collected and trained the 10,000 troops left by Yuan Shao, and Yu Ban went to Zhao Yun as an adjutant general.

If you want to say that you are not convinced, for Yu Ban, there will definitely be.

After all, Zhao Yun was even younger than Yu Ban, and he directly served as the commander as soon as he joined the Cao Army.

But

Lin An doesn't care about these things.

He believed in Zhao Yun's ability, and even more believed that Zhao Yun could handle these things well.

And then, there is nothing else.

Celebrate with wine

Cao Cao was not there, and Lin An didn't drink alcohol, which was a little less interesting.

Of course

There is nothing to celebrate at the top.

These things are not eaten by everyone on weekdays.

The main thing is to reward the soldiers.

Of course

Just as Lin An was preparing to leave the Taishou Mansion.

When he went home and saw the two little wives of Mink Cicada and Cai Yan, who were probably ready to pick up the wind and wash the dust for him.

Xia Hou Wei came back.

After disappearing for more than a month, Xia Hou Wei finally returned.

Taishou Mansion

Cao Cao's study

Xia Hou greeted him and saluted Lin An:

"'Sir! Xiahou Zhute came back to life. "

Lin An hurriedly stepped forward to stop Xia Hou Wei's salute, and asked directly:

"What about people?"

Xia Hou Wei hurriedly said:

"Temporarily placed in the small courtyard of the post station."

"The attendant Cai Yong, as well as Cai Yong's wife Liu Shi, and Cai Yong's second daughter Cai Lin were all safely escorted to Puyang."

"Go, go and see."

Lin An said and was about to leave.

Xia Hou Wei said with some hesitation:

"Sir, you go to see Mr. Cai, or bring Mrs. Cai with you."

“......"

Looking at Xiahou Wei's state, and thinking of the order he gave to Xiahou Wei, Lin An asked suspiciously:

"You brought people by force?"

Xia Hou lowered his head helplessly.

Noncommittal.

For him, although the mission is completed, this mission is not perfect.

This is also a manifestation of his lack of ability.

This result.

Lin An was even more surprised.

When he gave Xia Hou Wei an order.

This consideration is just in case.

It stands to reason that after reading that letter, Cai Yong should not refuse, right?

(Li Nuozhao) frowned, Lin An asked directly:

"What's going on?"

"Doesn't he want to come with you?"

"For Dong Zhuo?"

Although Cai Yong's death was originally because of Dong Zhuo, it does not mean that Cai Yong is from Dong Zhuo's camp.

Or do you say...

Because of his appearance, things have changed?

Xia Hou Wei nodded and shook his head again, and explained truthfully:

"After Mr. Cai read the letter and the pamphlet given by his husband, he sighed for a while, and he was full of praise for him, saying that there are future successors of Han literature."

"However, he didn't seem to believe in our abilities and was ready to let us go back."

“......"

Lin An was stunned for a moment.

The reaction was even more helpless,

"So, you just robbed their family out?"

Xia Hou Wei nodded and added:

"I've repeatedly assured Mr. Cai, but he just doesn't believe it."

"There is no way, I can only enforce the task according to what Mr. said."

"Later, I went out of Luoyang, and after getting the order of this sir, Mr. Cai seemed to be quite critical of you, sir."

"If Mrs. Yan follows, the atmosphere should be a little calmer."

“......"

After listening to Xia Houwei's explanation, Lin An was even more helpless.
