The First Military Division of the Three Kingdoms

Of course, although they are all generals of the legion, it is impossible to sit on an equal footing with veterans like Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong. Even now, the two lead an army alone, but once there is a war, Zhang Xiu must accept Zhao Yun's command unconditionally, even if there is no army. ministry orders.

After the three army commanders, there are major generals. Among them, Guan Ning is the deputy commander of the army. If Zhao Yun is the commander of the Liangzhou theater, Guan Ning is the deputy commander, and his status is very high. After all, Guan Ning He is the old man of Liu Bei Group and Liu Bei's confidant general.

Among the three Liangzhou garrisons, Chen Ziming found that there are many famous generals in history, such as Agui and Wanwan from the Di tribe, Erhe Shaoge from the Qiang tribe, and Liu Zhang's original generals, including Pang Xi, Wu Yi, Zhang Yizhou and other famous generals from Yizhou. bract.

Among the generals sitting, Chen Ziming valued the most, not to mention Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiu, Yan Yan is already a veteran, that's all, and the one sitting at the end is an eight-foot-tall general who Chen Ziming pays the most attention to .

This person was the Jiangdong general who was sent by Sun Quan to attack Yizhou. Zhu Zhi was a famous general. He followed Sun Jian to conquer east and west, followed Sun Ce to occupy Jiangdong, and then became Sun Quan's confidant general.

He was captured during the attack on Yizhou. As for how such a Jiangdong general joined Liu Bei, Chen Ziming could only hehe, he fell into Liu Bei's hands, and wanted to retreat. Is it possible? Chen Ziming also thought he was not as good as Liu Bei's ability to recruit and surrender. .

Of course, Zhu Zhi was not without conditions. He proposed to Liu Bei that he would never bring a single soldier into Jiangdong in this life.

Liu Bei readily agreed, and even sent people to Jiangdong to bring all Zhu Zhi's family members to Dahan.

Sun Quan didn't get in the way, and Zhu Zhi joined Liu Bei. Sun Quan just sighed, and instead of punishing Zhu Zhi's family, he sent people to protect him all the way. After all, Zhu Zhi fought for the Sun family all his life and made great contributions.

Besides, during this period, it was common for generals to surrender after being captured, and it was not treason.

The Three Kingdoms and Three Kingdoms are actually one country, three forces, not three countries in the true sense. They are all princes of the Han Dynasty. The three countries in history have not been recognized by the people of the Han Dynasty.

"What do you think of the current situation of General Zhu's army?"

Chen Ziming and Zhu Zhi walked alone on the magnificent Jincheng tower, looking at the blue sky without a single white cloud, Chen Ziming relaxed a lot, and suddenly asked Zhu Zhi's views on the current world situation.

"Unification of the world is unstoppable."

The simple eight characters show that Zhu Zhi has a clear understanding of the situation in the world, and it also makes Chen Ziming's Zhu Zhi look at him differently as a wise general.

"Liu, Cao, and Sun have established a tripartite confrontation. Why does the general think that the world can be unified?" Chen Ziming continued to ask.

Zhu Zhi sighed slightly, and said in a low voice: "Before I joined the Great Han, I would have thought that the world would be difficult to unify, and Jiangdong would definitely dominate one side."

Chen Ziming said softly, "What about now?"

Zhu Zhi shook his head and said with a sigh: "I used to sit in a well and watch the sky. Only when I became a great man did I know the strength of a great man, only then did I know how weak Jiangdong is, and only then did I know the ignorance of the world."

"Hahaha..." Chen Ziming laughed loudly after hearing this. All of this was done by him. The big man can have the strength he has today. Now the big man can have such a strong strength.

After chatting with Zhu Zhi for a while, Chen Ziming asked, "How many soldiers and horses will the big man need if he wants to go to Jiangdong?"

After Zhu Zhi heard this, he was silent for a while. He didn't want to mention everything about Jiang Dong, and he didn't want to see Jiang Dong perish. Although he joined Liu Bei, it didn't mean he would betray Jiang Dong as the starter

Zhu Zhi remained silent, Chen Ziming didn't care, and said softly: "Unification of the world is inevitable. Although Jiangdong is strong, it is far from the enemy of the Han. The general is at ease. The Han has millions of tigers and tigers. There are no generals who attack Jiangdong."

Zhu Zhi continued to remain silent, and Zhu Zhi did not express any opinion on this matter. After a while, Zhu Zhi sincerely said to Chen Ziming: "Prime Minister, can the Sun family be allowed to make a debut?"

"The general wants to intercede for the Sun family?" Chen Ziming glanced at Zhu Zhi, seeing Zhu Zhi nod firmly, Chen Ziming nodded secretly, and then said: "The emperor is benevolent, Liu Zhang's generation can still be crowned king, and live a peaceful life."

"Thank you, Prime Minister." After receiving Chen Ziming's reply, Zhu Zhi breathed a sigh of relief. There are always a few losers who have not been exterminated, but it is another matter to fall into Liu Bei's hands. There was no case of genocide.

Chapter 571 Leave a thought

Chen Ziming communicated with many leading generals alone to strengthen communication, understand the thoughts of these generals, and prepare for the unification battle in the near future.

"If you attack Yizhou from the outside, it will be difficult to break through, but if you attack from the inside, there is no danger to defend." Yan Yan's evaluation of the current situation in Yizhou is very simple. If there is a war, it will be difficult for Huang Zhong to occupy the southern part of Yizhou. Big, after all, most of the most dangerous checkpoints are in the north.

The dangerous passes in the south are all on the periphery. On the Chengdu Plain, it is difficult for Cao Jun to block Huang Zhong's offensive.

While Chen Ziming was patrolling Jincheng, the atmosphere in Tongguan was heavy. In Liangzhou where Chen Ziming appeared, the news of summoning the generals of Liangzhou had already spread to Tongguan.

"Mr. Bo Ning, Chen Ziming suddenly appeared in Liangzhou and summoned all the generals. What is his intention?" Yu Jin frowned and asked the military adviser Man Pang in a deep voice.

After pondering for a while, Man Pang shook his head and said: "Liangzhou has Liu Bei's 15 soldiers, and Zhao Yun's commander, Tian Feng is planning, if you want to attack Tongguan, you don't need Chen Ziming to travel long distances."

Yu Jin worried and said: "According to investigations, Guan Yu also came with Chen Ziming. The coming is not good, so we must guard against it."

"Of course." Man Pang didn't dare to be negligent, and immediately said: "Send out scouts to investigate the situation of soldiers and horses in Liangzhou, and report to the lord quickly, and the lord will decide."

"Yes." Yu Jin has no other good solution. Of course, he is not afraid of a battle. There are [-] troops around Tongguan, and there are natural dangers in Tongguan. Although Chen Ziming is powerful, he is not a fool, and Tongguan is not that easy .

After arranging everything, while Yu Jin was relieved, he couldn't help being full of doubts about Chen Ziming's appearance in Liangzhou. He was worried and discussed with Man Pang.

Man Pang was also puzzled and said: "Now Liu Bei is recuperating, and he will not start a war at this time. Chen Ziming should have other plans when he enters Liangzhou."

"Hey." Yu Jin sighed and said: "Liu Bei has sealed off all the places, and it is difficult to detect Liu Bei's troop mobilization with careful work. If we fight, we will be very passive."

"Mr. Zhicai once said that there will be a battle between Cao and Liu, but this battle should be one to two years later, and this time is definitely not an opportunity to start a war." Regarding the current situation, Cao Cao has already convened everyone to discuss, and they are all looking forward to the future. Prepare for the future.

"Send a message to Xianyang and other places to be careful, in case Chen Ziming sends troops down the Weishui River to cut off our Tongguan grain road." Tian Feng did this before, sending troops from the Weishui River to attack Xianyang, just when Chen Ziming wanted to escape from Xianyang, He hit the target by mistake and rescued Chen Ziming.

This incident dealt a great blow to General Cao Jun. If Zhang Xiu’s soldiers and horses who came to attack Xianyang had not appeared at that time, Chen Ziming would have become Cao Cao’s prisoner. Without Chen Ziming going to Liangzhou to preside over the battle, Cao Cao might have won Liangzhou Zhou, and even took Hanzhong and Yizhou successively.

There is no such severe situation now, and Yu Jin secretly sighed in his heart, God really does not help Mr. Cao, just a little bit, can completely change the situation of the world.

Following the news of Tongguan, Chang'an and Xianyang were under martial law, especially in the Xianyang area, the people dare not go out, otherwise, once they encounter Cao Jun on patrol, they are likely to be arrested as a spy. There are also Cao Jun on both sides of the Weishui River. Inspections and defenses are not lax.

However, these did not affect Chen Ziming's inspection plan. He continued to inspect the various legions in Liangzhou. After inspecting Zhao Yun's army, the second target was Yan Yan's army, which was stationed in the northern part of Liangzhou.

In fact, there are no powerful enemies in the north of Liangzhou. The Qiang and Di people have already integrated into the Han. The only danger is the Xiongnu, but the territory of the Xiongnu is not close to Liangzhou. .

"It's bitter cold in the north. The old general defended the border for the great man, and he worked hard." Chen Ziming followed Yan Yan to inspect the various armies. Yan Yan's army had [-] soldiers and horses, and they were divided into five garrisons. In the Central Plains, after Guo Huang passed, it was the boundary of the Western Regions.

However, the Western Regions are very chaotic today, a city is a country, and the Western Regions are in a sense the territory of the Han, no matter how the Han is, the Western Regions regard the Han as the main country, and dare not invade the territory of the Han at will.

Of course, since it was the Han territory, Chen Ziming had no reason to let it go. Although Guo Huang was far away, Chen Ziming ordered the Yan Yan Legion to send [-] troops to Guo Huang to establish a border defense line.

It’s not that Chen Ziming didn’t want to send more troops, it’s that Guo Huang was too far away, the transportation was difficult, and the logistics supply couldn’t be supplied. It's already the limit.

Because of food and grass issues, the former great Han had abandoned the garrison in the Guohuang area many times, and also gave up the sovereignty there. Fortunately, the Protectorate of the Western Regions still exercised their powers to ensure that Guo Huang and other places could not threaten the great Han.

"Prime Minister, the general thinks that there is no strong enemy in the northwest, so there is no need to garrison too many troops." Yan Yan was puzzled by Chen Ziming's sudden order to station troops in Guohuang and other places, and none of their generals were willing to go to Bitter Cold The land, complaining endlessly, let him, the old general, be the starter

Chen Ziming was helpless after hearing Yan Yan's complaints. In this era, the sense of sacred territory is very indifferent. They only care about the fertile land in the Central Plains, which can bring them benefits.

Looking up at the still blue sky, Chen Ziming calmly said to Yan Yan: "Guarding the frontier and defending the territory of the Han Dynasty is the duty of the soldiers of the Han Dynasty, and Guo Huang and other places are cheap, but they are the territory of the Han Dynasty, so how can they be left alone. "

"The officers and men of the Han Dynasty have the responsibility of guarding the land, but they must not chill the hearts of the officers and men. The officers and men guarding the border, according to the degree of bitterness, the military department will increase the corresponding treatment, and the army guarding the border will implement a rotation system, limited to three years, and exchange places with other ministries for garrison. "

After that, Chen Ziming talked about many solutions to alleviate the difficulties of stationing troops in remote places, but they were all palliatives, not the root cause. The ultimate reason was the inconvenient transportation and lack of high-tech communication methods in this era.

Yan Yan failed to persuade Chen Ziming to give up the garrison in the northwest, so he had to settle for the next best thing: "The guards in Guohuang, Zhangye, Jiuquan and other places want to reduce the number of garrisons. First, there are no strong enemies, and second, it is difficult to collect food and grass."

Chen Ziming shook his head and said: "The number of garrison troops is determined by the military department, and cannot be increased or decreased at will, but you and the others can adjust the defense appropriately to reduce the garrison time of each department.",

It is impossible for Chen Ziming to give up and reduce the garrison, because in Chen Ziming's view, the land area of ​​the big man is still too small, and it is far from meeting his requirements. land, but at least leave a seed, leave a thought.
