On April 21, when Li Chong received the news, he was urging the construction of a warehouse city.

The staff suggested that the name "Fancheng" (near Pingquan in later generations) was because it was not far from the late Han Dynasty Fancheng east of Bailang Mountain. The city was abandoned and the name was just used. This is also one of the reasons why many cities in the border areas are debated endlessly.

Either they relocate frequently or their names are misappropriated.

Cangcheng is located at a high place, and the post road is under the city. At this moment, a huge team is advancing.

Li Chong had just talked with the Taishan Goats children who led the team and learned that they had dispatched 3,000 people, both civilians and military land, and sent them to Pinggang with grain.

Pinggang's broken earth city was also being built and expanded. King Shao Yu of Yan allowed them to use some military rations, then rammed earth to build a city, log wood and set up sheds, and in short, they did everything possible to expand the storage of military rations.

If 50,000 combat soldiers are not considered as servile animals, they will consume 130,000 to 140,000 hu of food in a month.

A carriage can only carry food ranging from forty to sixty hu of hu of food, and there are more ox carts, but after all, it is not much larger than land transportation. Besides, ox carts are larger and the road conditions are just like that. Some places are more troublesome than horse carts.

The Beiping Camp started preparations last year, and now it has gathered more than 10,000 vehicles in some counties and counties in Youji and Sizhou, including pack horses and donkeys, and transported supplies, equipment, crossbow trucks, wounded medicines, tools and other items day and night.

It is gratifying that Li Chong sent many tribes to the north from Youzhou to set up defenses in the mountains. He has not yet encountered large-scale attacks by the Murong Xianbei cavalry.

As for hundreds of riders, it is not considered a harassment, and it is directly expelled.

The war has not yet begun, but the preliminary preparations have gone very smoothly.

Li Chong was very politically conscious. He felt that this was the emperor's contribution, because he made a quick decision to protect the Murong Ren power in Liaodong, which made them restrain many enemy troops.

Goguryeo may have gone out, but it should be their usual sneaking, that is, they break into Xuan County and robbed wealth and people, which also has a restraining effect.

Unfortunately, the Fuyu Kingdom was like a dead man. He neither paid tribute to Daliang nor sent troops to attack Murong. He only lived his own life behind closed doors. However, can he really be isolated from the world in a great battle? It is impossible.

"As Jiang Ke as the governor of the sea route, he led the Silver Gun Left Camp and the Left Cavalry Guard, and was equipped with tens of thousands of auxiliary soldiers. He went out of Linyu Mountain, crossed Liaoze, and attacked Tuhe River. The left long straight guard and the right dragon and tiger guard guard guarded the western part of Liao to protect the retreat for it and urged the delivery of resources."

Li Chong used troops, and the first priority was to the rear route and food route. From this order, we can see that his fighting style was not radical at all. First of all, he was on the premise of trying to be undefeated. Even if he was defeated, he should withdraw as much as possible.

"The remaining troops of the Right Knight Guard, Lin, Jingsai and Beikou, gathered 10,000 troops, immediately galloped towards Pinggang, and each looked for the thief cavalry to fight. If the vanguard commander and the King of Yan had an order, he would obey his order."

This order seems a bit strange, but in fact, considering that the King of Yan had never commanded so many people, these generals were allowed to maintain their independence and not wait for the King of Yan to send orders in everything. They took the initiative to find enemy cavalry to fight and press the thieves to the east.

To put it bluntly, Li Chong did not trust Shao Yu's ability.

The King of Yan had the ability to lead three thousand cavalry to destroy the edges, but he had not proved his ability to command more than 10,000 infantry and cavalry mixed teams.

If it weren't for Shao Xun's special request, Li Chong would have let the King of Yan lead three thousand cavalry to serve as the personal guards of the Beiping camp and set off with him, Li, to be safe and able to make a contribution.

"The governor of Heishao Right Camp Zhao Wei is the only one who stays behind the camp, and the two counties of Heishao Zhongying are divided into Yan and Beiping. If any thief crosses the mountains and breaks into Youzhou, they will be severely suppressed."

This was the emperor's order. First, he was worried that the Xianbei people would cross the tunnel in Yanshan Mountains and break into Youzhou to create chaos. He was even more worried that there would be rebellion in the rear, so he left two imperial guards and left and right imperial guards to shake the tweezers. Second, he was worried that the rest of the imperial guards, left and right Yulin guards, left and right Jinwu guards, right Feilong guards left and right, left and right, and left and right Feilong guards left and left and right, and left and right, and left and right, and left and right Feilong guards left and left and left and right, and left and right, and left and right, and left and right, he left and right, and left and right, and left and right, and left and right, he left and right, and left and right, and left and right, and left and right, he left and right, and left and right, and left and right, he left and left and right, and left and right, and left and right, he left and left and right, and left

Fancheng, wait for the order.”

This unit has a total of more than 30,000 soldiers, which is the absolute main force of this battle. It is supplemented by the Hebei Zhenshang, Youzhou Zahu, and the wealthy tribes transporting supplies, and was led by Li Chong himself.

"Transpread to Jizhou and report it to the emperor."

After giving all the orders, Li Chong waved his hand and went to rest.

He was not in a hurry at all.

The most taboo thing for such a powerful army is to get messy by yourself. If you don’t messy by yourself, the leader will not panic, and you are all veterans who have been fighting for many years. What should the enemy use to fight?

*******

On April 25, Shao Xun received a military newspaper from Li Chong in just four days.

He did not object.

Li Chong is recruiting the envoy and has full authority. These are "notifications" rather than "requests".

On this day, he was in Zhangwu County, with 40,000 infantry and cavalry heading towards Piaoyujin.

On the 26th, on the way, he received a report from Xu Lang, a recruitment envoy of Donglai Camp: the troops were scheduled to cross the sea at the end of April and transported thousands of Northern Palace soldiers and Qingxu Hao clan soldiers transferred from Jiangnan to Liaodong.

This purpose is actually to release the Zuo Feilong Guard's troops and the First Battalion of the Yellow Head Army with relatively strong field capabilities.

After they handed over the garrison task, they could cooperate with Murong Ren's troops to go north and try to recover Xiangping.

When Shao Xun saw that the signature was April 20, he knew that the operation of Donglai Camp was approaching.

Now there is only the grassland camp with Shao Shen as the commander.

Shao Xun thought about it and wrote a letter with a quick horse to send it to Pingcheng. He ordered Tuoba Xianbei to send troops to join the 5,000 elite cavalry under the tent of the Shanyu Protectorate, 10,000 Yi soldiers, 2,000 Youzhou Tuqi Supervisors, 3,000 Pingcheng Guards, 3,000 Pingcheng Guards, 8,000 infantry and cavalry in three towns, 3,000 Banjuans, 2,000 Liangcheng soldiers, 2,000 Liangcheng soldiers, 2,000 total, more than 80,000 people drove cattle and sheep to the east and entered the Yuwen tribe's pasture land.

The growth of forage grass in May is a good time for marching and fighting on the grassland.

"If you use so many people, you will have to give a lot of rewards on the grassland this year, right?" Yang Xianrong said with a frown on the wide carriage.

"Let's talk about it then." Shao Xun smiled.

Of course, he recognized Yang Xianrong's words, fighting is either a creation out of nothing, but first of all, logistics.

So many people were dispatched on the grassland, at least millions of livestock had to be used and more than ten routes of troops were advanced.

It’s not that the site is not wide enough and cannot be opened, but that so many livestock must be scattered very openly, otherwise the livestock in front will pass through the border.

Sweep the grass away. Before the grass grows, the next batch comes again. Wouldn't you starve to death?

This kind of migration-style combat is very methodical and dangerous, especially when it is defeated.

Shao Xun remembered that in the later Tang Dynasty, there were too many Tubo people in Guanzhong and western China to die. Often, they liked a wave of fighting style, first migrating men, women, young and old to the vicinity, bringing tents, cattle, sheep and slaves (various ethnic groups, even Central Asians and South Asians).

In summer, they grazed in Qinghai, and in autumn, they drove cattle, sheep, horses and came to Guanxi, and then attacked Guanzhong. They won the big robbery, and they surrendered to Fengxiang, Jingyuan, Zou Ning and other vassal states, and they didn't want the old, weak, women and children.

In fact, if he had a choice, he would rather run to Pingcheng and lead this huge army along the grassland to experience the feeling of a reverse Yelu Abaoji.

A flying feeling, a different experience,

The rewards that Yang Xianrong said must be given, otherwise it will not be so easy to shake people next time.

But he may not necessarily have to come out. Let’s see how much oil and water the Murong family has.

If it is not enough, then go to Goguryeo to grab one.

If you have enough time, then let the Hu cavalry plunder Fuyu, fight and withdraw quickly, and how much can you grab.

Do you really think I, Shao Zhe, are a good person?

"Is there a sea in the floating Yujin?" Shan Yinan asked.

Yang Xianrong glanced at her and said, "You are getting stupider now. I really don't know how you used to issue orders when you were building emails. If you see you like this, no one will be ordered."

Shan Yinan felt a little embarrassed.

"I will go." Shao Xun said, "There is Jieshi in western Liaoning County. Let's see what the hell is like, the mountain island is staggering?"

"Do you want to write a poem?" Shan Yinan asked again.

Shao Xun smiled awkwardly and politely, saying, "It's not that you can't write poetry, but that you don't have the interest in poetry."

Both girls smiled.

"The car is too boring, go down for a walk." Shao Xun said, jumped gently, and jumped off the carriage, which shocked Tong Qianjin to worry again.

"My dear Liu." Shao Xun turned over a horse and shouted.

"Your Majesty." Shao was patrolling the ranks of the Fifth Battalion of the Huangtou Army, and immediately walked over after hearing this.

"You and Li Deguang immediately took ten thousand people from the headquarters north to serve as pioneers and heading to western Liaoning." Shao Xun said, "This is a marching force, you must learn it. Practice well and don't make any mistakes."

"As for the order." Shao immediately rode his horse back and went to make arrangements with Li En.

Shao Xun looked at the endless fields and admired the prosperous military appearance.

Before he knew it, he could actually organize such a large-scale army, which was still very difficult more than ten years ago.

But today in the third year of Zhenming, he has a place in the nine provinces and tens of thousands of places, and his strength is increasing every day, and his reputation is spreading far and wide. It is no longer the same.

The Shu soldiers in the gorge drove boats and sea for him.

The Wu people in Kuaiji cut through the waves for him.

The herdsmen of Yinshan charged for him.

The man in Kansai wore armor and held a blade for him.

There were also countless wealthy families, chiefs, big chariots, pack horses, livestock and even boats in Henan and Hebei, sending bundles of arrows to the front line.

What kind of virtue is Murong Xianbei? He is a thunderous blow.

In history, Shi Hu's conquest of Liao was known as a 500,000 army. It would be great if there were 100,000 soldiers. How could this thief compare with me?

Shao Xun laughed, this feeling was so wonderful.

At the end of April, Murong also received news from all directions.

First of all, the war situation in Liaodong was stalemate, and the prince Murong had nowhere to plunder, so he asked to send some food and grass.

Then there was news from Xuan County that Gao Wu, the brother of Goguryeo, led thousands of cavalry into Xuan, and plundered thousands of cattle and sheep to give birth to thousands of mouths.

Then there was news from western Liaoning that the guards Song Huang and others surrendered to the enemy, and the Liang soldiers easily took the county and went east to Tuhe, as if they had some intentions.

Then there was someone who surrendered to the enemy in Liucheng. "Where is the Jiang Ruozhi?" This was a sentence Murong subconsciously asked.
