Chapter 171 169. Liu Bei: I am willing to listen to my husband’s instructions (please subscribe for a monthly ticket)

An army, of course, can only have one commander.

Although the two armies are united, they must have a leader and a deputy. Otherwise, if the military orders are different, it would be better not to unite.

The group of people present also understand this extremely simple truth.

Therefore, people on Liu Bei's side were a little stunned when faced with Huang Yueying's question.

In terms of official positions, Liu Bei was General Zuo, Yuzhou Shepherd, and a clan member of the Han Dynasty, while Mr. Xiao was just a member of the Jingzhou Shepherd's Tent engaged in offering wine, so of course it was Liu Bei who made the final decision.

In terms of age, Liu Bei also completely beat Mr. Xiao.

But...in terms of military strength, Liu Bei's side was completely defeated.

Besides, Mr. Xiao’s record is not simple either.

After Huang Yueying asked this question, she received astonished looks from everyone, and her face still maintained the same expression as before.

She didn't think that this group of people would have only this reaction.

Next to him, Wang Can was really surprised, because... A Chu's words were indeed a bit rude.

As expected, Guan Yu's already red face turned even redder, and he saw some anger in his eyes.

Zhang Fei slapped the table and said angrily, "You kid, you are so rude!"

"Third brother!"

Liu Bei quickly persuaded Zhang Fei and shook his head to signal Guan Yu. The latter calmed down a little and stared at Huang Yueying seriously.

"Bei believes that it doesn't matter who the order comes from, what matters is what kind of military order." Then Liu Bei looked at Huang Yueying seriously and said this.

He is now past his forties. Since the defeat of the Yellow Turban Army, he has been wandering around and has no place to settle down. It has been seventeen years.

He had long since stopped getting too angry because others looked down on him, not to mention that the thin young man in front of him was not the kind of person who would look down on him.

"That's what Mr. Xuande said." Huang Yueying smiled and nodded.

During this period, the emperor's uncle was already a mature version of the emperor's uncle who had experienced severe beatings from society, and he was really calm.

"So, how can we educate primary school students?"

"Sun Tzu said: The passion of the army means speed, taking advantage of others' inadequacy, and attacking them by unexpected means." Huang Yueying thought for a while, and her tone was serious when facing Liu Bei, "Cao and Yuan have been in a stalemate for several months.

, Xudu is empty, this is a good opportunity, but, the general’s plan, can Cao Cao’s thieves know?”

"How could Thief Cao know about my elder brother's plan?" Zhang Fei said loudly.

Others started to think about it.

Cao Cao knew that Liu Bei and Liu Pi were united, which meant that... if there was a chance to end the confrontation with Yuan Shao, Cao Cao would definitely rush back to Xudu as soon as possible and pacify the rear.

"Please ask the young general to teach me!" Liu Bei thought for a while and was so shocked that he broke into a cold sweat.

He only has a thousand soldiers, plus Liu Pi's Yellow Turban Army, it looks like there are five or six thousand soldiers, but in fact, when encountering Cao Cao's troops, they will disperse in a rush, and their combat effectiveness is not at the same level.

Since Cao Cao knew that he was south of Xudu, why wouldn't he not try his best to deal with Yuan Shao and return reinforcements as soon as possible?

Yes, he takes it too much for granted.

He took it for granted that Yuan Shao would be able to hold Cao Cao back.

He was familiar with both Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.

He also agreed with the young gentleman in front of him last year: he must win against Shao.

Now that the two have been facing each other for such a long time, perhaps, there is only one opportunity left for the war situation to turn around.

So, he has to speed up.

"So, soldiers are valuable and quick." Huang Yueying nodded and asked, "How many horses and cavalry does the general have under his command?"

"This... is less than two hundred." Liu Bei was a little ashamed.

With such a small force, what right of say can he have?

"However, my second brother, third brother, and Zilong are all extraordinary generals..." Liu Bei added.

"Young man, I understand." Huang Yueying agreed, "General Guan beheaded Yan Liang in the midst of thousands of troops. General Zhang also had the courage that ten thousand men would not deserve, and General Zhao was even more of a hero in the north. During this trip, I searched for nearby people."

Four thousand horses.”

"Four thousand!" Liu Bei was surprised.

Zhang Fei also widened his eyes, Jingzhou people are so rich! He likes it!

Guan Yu's hand that was placed on the desk was also clenched into a fist.

"But if the emperor is in the capital, how can he attack the city if he is all cavalry?" Zhao Yun asked the question.

He was originally a cavalryman, so he naturally knew the weaknesses of the cavalry. Although he came and went like the wind and moved freely, it was still a big problem when attacking a city.

"This place is only eighty miles away from Xudu." Huang Yueying smiled and looked at Zhao Yun, "If we are all cavalry, we can get there in just one day."

Yes, the place where Liu Bei set up his camp is really close to Xuchang.

Come to the cavalry and go back and forth, it may not even take a day.

Moreover, the eighty miles in the Han Dynasty was about one-fifth shorter than the eighty miles in later generations.

"If cavalry is used to transport infantry, it may take longer, but it will not exceed two days."

"Use cavalry... to transport infantry?" Everyone's thoughts were suddenly opened.

If this is the case, then the current 16,000 to 7,000 troops will appear directly at Xuchang City at dawn the day after tomorrow...

They can guarantee that the number of combatable soldiers in Xuchang City will not exceed 5,000.

"However, if we attack by force..." Liu Bei was a little worried. Even if there were very few troops in Xuchang City, it would be difficult to attack the emperor by force.

"You have to outsmart yourself." Huang Yueying continued to say with a smile.

"How to outwit him?" Liu Bei's eyes lit up.

"This time, I brought with me one hundred thousand pieces of Chu paper." Huang Yueying said with a smile.

Except for Jingzhou, Chu paper is a best-seller in all other states. Even if there is a war, merchants still have their own methods, so they looked at Mi Zhu.

It is impossible for this former Xuzhou rich man not to have any connections in Xuchang.

Even if there is no such relationship, it doesn't matter.

She also has the relationship with Sili and the Yuzhou agent that she can use.

Then, everyone looked at Mi Zhu.

They know that to be wise, they should cooperate inside and outside.

To knock on the door with 100,000 pieces of Chu paper is already a huge feat.

"Bei, thank you very much for your generosity, young gentleman!" Liu Bei almost stood up from his seat, there were a hundred thousand pieces of Chu paper!

This is nearly one million dollars in Xuchang!

Which family in Xuchang City can give up such benefits?

None of them will give up!

Although the price of Chu paper today is much lower than last year, it is still a best-seller.

Outside of Jingzhou, it is far from five cents a piece.

"If we can really welcome back the emperor, these expenses will be nothing." Huang Yueying waved her hand. She paid for these 100,000 pieces of Chu paper at the Chu paper workshop in Nanyang.

It's much closer than driving all the way from Xiangyang.

"In addition, I have already sent a letter to Military Advisor Cai to station troops in Duyang. In two days, he will march directly from Duyang to Xuchang."

"This..." Liu Bei was even more surprised.

This means that the probability of their plan succeeding will be higher.

Then, he had to give in.

The boy in front of him, who was no more than fourteen years old, was really beyond his expectation.

How could these plans be the work of a fourteen-year-old boy?

He envied Liu Biao so much!

"Thank you sir!" Liu Bei bowed his hands and expressed deep admiration. "In this battle, I am willing to obey sir's instructions without any hesitation."

Huang Yueying raised her eyebrows. The small characters of "Little Mr." have been removed!

not bad.

"If the general is willing, then...are the other generals also willing?" Huang Yueying said with a smile.
