Four hundred and five won the domination of the world, lost the dead bones in the tomb
For Yuan Shu, the number of 100,000 people is already the limit, and it is at the level of military and military power.
If he exceeds this number, he will not think about fighting, and the army can starve to death directly.
Moreover, there are no more strong men, so it is time to bring women into the army and learn from women from Liangzhou to fight on the battlefield.
With strong reserves as the basis, Guo Peng used 200,000 auxiliary soldiers, civilians, tens of thousands of carts, tens of thousands of livestock, and on the road to transport grain, people and animals, and grain transport teams stretched for tens of miles.
It was a little difficult to continue to march south rashly, so as not to pull the logistics supply line too long and the pressure was too great. Yuan Shu was better, and he dared to use the 300,000 army?
Everyone likes to claim to marching and fighting to intimidate the enemy, but Yuan Shu is really outrageous. You have to spend 300,000 people to come, afraid that it will be a man who has finished hiring the woman?
So Guo Jia treated this matter as a joke.
"If His Majesty the Emperor of Chen really comes with a army of 300,000, I don't think we have to panic and don't think of surrendering. Just wait here. As long as he can bring the army of 300,000 to us, Guo will drink a jar of horse pee!"
In order to mock Yuan Shu, Guo Jia even said such words, which made Xi Zhong mock Guo Jia for being "Sima, a Ma Zhi".
But not to mention 300,000, and for the same 100,000 army, does Yuan Shu have such a large reserve for confidence? Does he have such strong transportation capacity to maintain logistics?
If not, he is taking risks, he is betting, one is betting on a quick battle and one is betting on a quick battle, and the other is to quickly eliminate Guo Peng and resolve the crisis.
Win the club...Phoe!
Win and dominate the world, lose the dead bones in the tomb.
So this is already Yuan Shu’s last ripple.
But it’s true that some things are not done by normal people, but Yuan Shu can do them.
So Guo Peng was thinking that if Yuan Shu really brought the army out of 300,000, let alone other places, if he could bring his army from Shouchun to Qi County, Guo Peng admired him and promised to surrender without fighting and become a loyal minister and general of the Chen Empire.
This bragging too much and everyone doesn't believe it, and it is obviously not a good thing.
But it doesn't matter. Yuan Shu doesn't care. Yuan Shu thinks that many people can kill Guo Peng, and he must fight quickly.
So before Yuan Shu people arrived in Long Kang, they asked Lu Mian on the front line to launch an attack, fight a front-line battle, and build barracks for the army.
So Lu Mian led his army from Long Kang to camp and camped at dozens of offices south of Qi County. He sent mail cavalry to explore news and military intelligence. When he learned that Guo Peng had set up a company camp here, he sent people to attack tentatively.
Guo Peng ordered the captain Zhang He to lead the army to fight back and fight several small-scale victories, which caused Lu Mian to suffer a considerable loss.
Zhang He made a lot of contributions, and was personally hosted by Guo Peng to entertain the banquet and rewarded items. He held his hands and stroked his back with a very intimate look, which made Zhang He very happy and made other generals a little jealous.
For example, Cao Hong, who is still a commander, is a little jealous of surrendered generals like Zhang He, and is eager to see Guo Peng give him some chance to get back the lost face.
Lu Mian was very angry and blamed his generals, but he also had some concerns about the combat effectiveness of Guo Peng's troops.
Guo Peng is not too slow anyway. After the summer and autumn grain collection is completed, the warehouse is full of food, so he is not worried at all.
Then, as winter began, we mobilized winter clothes from warehouses in various places to change the soldiers, prepared hot water and ginger soup, and everything was in order.
But Yuan Shu is different. It’s good if you have a stutter. Do you want to change your winter clothes?
This is obviously impossible.
So as the weather became colder day by day, Lu Mian was also worried. Seeing the soldiers rubbing their hands and feet and unable to hold their weapons, he wrote to Yuan Shu many times to ask for some additional items to keep the cold.
Yuan Shu repeatedly emphasized that victory, victory is achieved, everything is available.
In fact, Yuan Shu himself couldn't bring out more things. All the cold-proof clothes in the treasury were not enough to arm the 100,000 army. Although Yuan Shu didn't care how many of these big-headed soldiers died, he would be very unhappy if his victory was gone.
While eating and wearing, we are ready to fight with warmth, we are cold and hungry, and fighting power is worrying. Outsiders don’t know, but insiders know that it is really difficult to fight.
On November 14, the second year of Xingping, Yuan Shu led his army to the military camp in the southern part of Qi County, and officially launched a large-scale battle with Guo Peng.
The total strength of both sides is 170,000, so this war is indeed a huge scale.
After arriving at the military camp, Yuan Shu immediately convened a military meeting and asked the entire army to launch an attack immediately, launch a decisive battle against Guo Peng, and destroy Guo Peng's main force in one fell swoop, so that Guo Peng would pay the price for his actions.
However, all the subordinates looked worried.
Yuan Shu was puzzled and asked immediately.
"Your Majesty, please follow us in the future."
Lu Mian took Yuan Shu to the military camp, accompanied Yuan Shu to the military camp, and then watched the actual situation of the soldiers.
What Yuan Shu saw was a soldier whose hands were blushing in the cold wind, his face turned blue and his lips were purple.
The soldiers all looked like this, rubbing their hands and stomping their feet. A gust of cold wind blew, and they were all trembling and sneezing constantly.
Yuan Shu could see some soldiers gathered around a pile of firewood to keep warm. The firewood was about to be exhausted, but people kept coming to keep warm, and the result was probably overcrowded and a fight broke out.
Lu Mian waved his hand and asked his personal soldiers to deal with it, and took Yuan Shu into a tent himself.
"The weather is too cold, and the tent is difficult to keep warm. The army has too many people and there is not enough firewood to make fire. Therefore, the tent is wet and cold, and soldiers are prone to getting sick. Over the past period of time, hundreds of people have not subsided in high fever, and the number is still increasing."
Lu Mian said to Yuan Shu with great thought: "Your Majesty, victory is important, but if the soldiers cannot get things to keep warm, they cannot even catch weapons, let alone fight? Please add clothes to keep warm for the soldiers."
"This is the matter between Han Yin and Yang Hong. You should ask them. Gu has already given the order."
Yuan Shu looked at Lu Mian with a serious look: "And is it the only one we are spending the winter? Is it spring on Guo Zhe, but it's just that we are cold here?"
"Your Majesty, all the clothes for the Guo thief army are released. The soldiers of the Guo thief army we saw are wearing tight clothes, with winter hats and winter boots from head to toe. They are not afraid of the severe cold at all. Our army comes here to stay in the cool autumn season. In a blink of an eye, a month has passed, and the cold wind is together, making it difficult to keep the clothes from the cold."
Lu Mian told the truth.
"Can't even stand this coldness? Is it still the Yuan army?"
