"Oh?" You initially thought it was so official colluding, joining forces, but unexpectedly it was Cao Cao, "Is he stationing troops at the border?"
Apart from Xuzhou, you have also dispatched so Shadow Agents around the Xuzhou area whose main task is to gather intelligence and deliver it to you as quickly as possible.
"Cao Cao and Yuan Shao seem to have reached so agreent and have secretly ceased hostilities. On the surface, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are in a standoff in the north, but in reality, both have withdrawn their main forces, with Yuan Shao preparing to raid Gongsun Zan in the north and Cao Cao advancing south towards Xuzhou."
"After all, Cao ngde is a formidable hero, his speed is three months faster than I anticipated." You sighed softly, "Do you know how many troops Cao Cao is mobilizing?"
The voice of the man in black remained extrely calm, as if everything was irrelevant to him: "There are two forces, likely totaling six hundred thousand."
You nodded and softly said, "I understand, you may go, continue monitoring."
"Understood."
Slowly standing up from the grass, your expression was a bit peculiar, worried on one hand, yet on the other, an uncontrollable excitent stirred within you.
"Finally, I’ll face the first battle of my life!"
You looked up at the northern sky, the corners of your mouth slightly upturned.
That day, you personally wrote letters and sent them at the fastest speed to Yu Jin in the north, Yue Jin in the northwest, Little Liu in the south, Zhao Yun in the east, and Lü Dai in the northeast corner, almost forgotten by people.
You did not make this matter public, and within the shortest ti, you ordered them to carry out the following four tasks respectively.
Firstly, after appointing Xu Sheng as the Deputy Lead of Guangling, Zhao Yun disappeared with those twenty-five thousand troops. Of course, for ordinary people, that was a common occurrence. Disappearing for a few days was routine for Zhao Yun, born of the Special Forces, so people got used to it. However, for this newly arrived deputy lead, people were sowhat unfamiliar, and Xuzhou had a peculiar phenonon in officialdom.
As Master of Xuzhou, you rarely use the original Xuzhou officials for important military positions. All such positions are appointed by you personally, with no reasoning needed, in Xuzhou, your word is everything!
Zhao Yun certainly couldn’t continue training with the troops. Instead, these twenty-five thousand n quietly infiltrated Dongguan County and hid. Dongguan County is the territory north of Kaiyang City, with its dense Qiu Lin and swampy landscape; this area has always been barren, and Yu Jin only stationed a five-thousand-man force in Dongguan City.
On the surface, Yu Jin acted as usual, and the troops were training routinely. But in private, Yu Jin was already prepared for a hard fight. Your task for Yu Jin was to defend Kaiyang City to the death, no matter how Cao Cao attacked, he must be stopped, and under no circumstances should Cao Cao’s troops enter the Xuzhou hinterland!
Yue Jin and Wei Yan in the northwest are young, and upon receiving your orders, they couldn’t sleep with excitent. However, they were already quite adept in troop deploynt and battle preparations and naturally did not fear Cao Cao’s army, instead, they were eager to try.
Upon receiving your command, Little Liu’s task was simple—remain still!
Although Little Liu felt a bit miffed, he also understood that he had more important things to do, and surely Yuan Shu in the west, Liu Yao, and Yan Baihu in the south would seize the opportunity to loot when Cao Cao invaded.
After arranging everything, you called all seven of your wives back and held a family rally.
Regarding Cao Cao’s invasion, all the won had already been warned by you before, so they were not overly shocked. In contrast, Ren Hongchang was raring to go: "If Cao Ah-Man cos, I will personally lead the Won’s Army to twist his head off!"
You rolled your eyes at Ren Hongchang directly. Ren Hongchang was absolutely a militant, and knowing this, you let her organize Xuzhou’s first Won’s Army, mainly to form a battle-ready dical team.
Speaking of the dical team, Hua Tuo must be ntioned. According to your request, Hua Tuo established a dical facility in Xuzhou City, widely recruiting students and personally teaching them dicine. Among these students, most were won. Won’s hearts are certainly more ticulous than n’s; proven through various practices, Hua Tuo, unlike so obstinate Old Stubborns, quickly accepted this fact and personally trained two female dical teams.
In your view, marching to war without a dical team is a terrifying prospect for soldiers. anwhile, this is also a female dical team. You imagined from a regular soldier’s perspective, if injured on the battlefield, being carried down on a stretcher and faced with gentle female dical staff, both physically and ntally would receive excellent care, and soldiers might even fight with renewed vigor.
Zhao Yu glanced at Ren Hongchang and then seriously asked you, "Husband, will you personally campaign this ti?"
You nodded, "Of course, wherever Cao Cao is, that’s where I’ll be!"
Saying this, a wild expression appeared on your face.
Upon seeing this, the won sighed softly; you are their entire world.
"Regarding logistical support, we’ve arranged everything with Lord Zhao. With our abundant funds and sufficient resources, you can rest assured on the front lines, dear husband." At this mont, Zhen Luo interjected, among the won, she and Mi Xiang jointly managed finances, amassing wealth comparable to a nation.
Mi Xiang also added, "Husband, there’s no need to save. Best would be to turn Cao Ah-Man into a pincushion with arrows!"
Mi Xiang usually was rather shy and spoke little; however, her remark made all the won take notice, while Ren Hongchang gave Mi Xiang a thumbs up: "Xiang Xiang, you are aweso, big sister gives you a thumbs-up!"
"The weather is getting colder, and the soldiers’ winter clothing has all been distributed, but at the mont, it’s barely enough. I wonder if we’ll still fall short?" Among the won, Gan i joined last and always regarded herself as a farm girl, acting low-key, speaking lightly.
Zhao Yu laughed and said, "Younger Sister i, don’t be restrained. We’ve spent too little ti together recently, so we’re a bit unfamiliar, but in this household, no one is bound by constraints."
Gan i nodded but still lowered her head slightly, not daring to speak loudly.
"Husband, you must co back safe and sound; this child is still waiting for you to na them." Zhen Jiang gently caressed her slightly bulging belly, looking a bit worried. Since Zhen Jiang beca pregnant, her previous temperants all disappeared, not only avoiding alcohol but even learning needlework with Gan i, which made you see her in a new light.
"Don’t worry, in this battle, not only will I win, but I’ll also achieve a great victory!"
As soon as you finished speaking, you noticed Ren Hongchang staring enviously at Zheng Zhi, who remained silent the whole ti: "So envious, so envious. Among our sisters, only Younger Sister Zhi has the best treatnt, even on the battlefield, she can accompany husband by his side."
With Ren Hongchang’s remark, all the won nodded in agreent.
The usually reticent Zheng Zhi promptly added, "Rest assured, sisters, I will definitely keep an eye on, cough, protect husband well."
The won understood, nodding in satisfaction.
