In early August, Huangfu Chaobo returned to Luoyang smoothly. However, Huangfu Chaobo, who came back to Luoyang, didn't relax. Instead, he put his energy into heavy government affairs.

Not only that, but also the disappearance of all places came to his hands, most of which were not good news.

Although the major princes in the Central Plains did not make any big moves, they could see that they were planning something. Although there was no exact news from the shadow guards of the Tang army, Huangfu Chaobo could see from the moves that there was no good thing in it.

"King," Guo Jiayang said to Huangfu Chaobo after collecting the information from Yang's hands: "from the information from all over the world, Jia infers that the state of Wei is likely to launch an attack on the state of Yan next year."

Huangfu Chaobo nodded, and he also saw some clues. Now yuan Shaojun is mobilizing troops everywhere, seemingly out of order, but the shrewd Guo Jia and others still see the problem from the middle. In the arrangement of troops and horses, the Wei army obviously strengthened the arrangement of troops and horses in the southwest and northeast directions.

Moreover, the army of Cao Cao, the king of Qi, obviously strengthened its center of gravity to the southwest. In the state of Wu, Sun Quan strengthened the defense of xiapi and Jiujiang after barely stabilizing the internal situation of Wu.

After all these intelligence gathered together, Rao Shihuang Fu Chao Bo also knew that the three great princes of Guandong had reached some kind of agreement, not to say that they were all against themselves, but at least they had a certain degree of union with the Tang state. If you add the army of Lu Bu, the king of Zhao, and the four princes are in trouble together, the army of the Tang Dynasty will be too large to deal with.

……

The Royal City, Nanpi, the palace and Yuan Shao of the state of Wei are gathering their important civil and military officials for discussion. Although there are not many people, they are all Yuan Shao's confidants.

As for civil servants, Guo Tu, the Minister of the three principalities, and Zhongcheng, the imperial censor, were at the top of the case. Among them were Guanglu Xun Fengji, Taichang Chen Lin, dahonglu Xun Chen, Tingwei Xu you, as well as Xinping, Anping, Zhongshan, Qinghe, Changshan and Yinkui.

On the other hand, the generals were led by Guowei Xinpi, followed by general Yan Liang of Pingxi, general Wen Chou of Pingbei, General Han Meng of Zhenglu and general Ju Yi of Zhenjun in beitingzhu, Hebei Province; the cavalry of four generals in Hebei Province led by Jiang Yiqu, core General Zhu Han, general Jiao Qian of left army and general Zhang Nan of guerrilla army, all of whom were the confidants of Yuan Shao.

Sitting on the throne, Yuan Shao looked at the gathering of civil and military officials. He couldn't help but feel proud. A kind of spirit of the world's heroes was rising in his heart.

"Well

After all the people sat down, Yuan Shao coughed on the throne and attracted everyone's eyes. Then he said slowly, "you Qing, this court meeting, I want to discuss with you about sending troops next year."

At this point, he looked around all the people in the room sternly, and then said, "however, no one is allowed to pass on what is discussed in today's court. If there is any mistake, I will punish you."

"We honor the king's order After hearing the speech, they all got up and fell on the ground, and answered in unison;

seeing this, Yuan Shao nodded with satisfaction, then turned his head and looked at Guowei Xinpi again, and said, "please explain something to the people, Xin Aiqing!"

"I'll take orders!" After hearing the speech, Xinpi got up and saluted Yuan Shao. Then he turned around and looked at the rest of the people and said, "I believe you all know that in recent months, the prime minister and I have been drawing troops from the prefectures. At the same time, they have also ordered the prefectures to supplement the troops already drawn and step up the training. I believe you have already guessed that the king wants to go to war with other countries. "

With that, SimpI walked slowly to the place where there was a huge spoke map on one side of the side of the side hall, and pointed to the map to introduce to the people.

Since the Wei army captured Handan, yuan shaoyufa felt that his cavalry had become a short board to restrict his development, so he ordered to buy another 40000 horses from Bingzhou to replenish his cavalry as soon as possible. At the same time, he called on his subordinates to discuss again and again, and decided to defeat gongsunzan as soon as possible and control Youzhou in his hands. In this way, not only could he win the war It can be said that it is killing two birds with one stone to enable the state of Wei to have a stable source of war horses and to cut off the source of war horses of the Tang army.

Later, the Wei army began to transfer soldiers from all over the country. At the beginning, they were only good at riding. Soon after, he recruited elite soldiers from the prefectures and soldiers, and those who had vacancies soon recruited new soldiers and soldiers, and all the soldiers were supplemented.

Moreover, among the generals of the Wei army, Ju Yi, who had not been used for many years, was also used again. He was named General of the town army by Yuan Shaofeng and ranked among the four court pillars. Although he was only the last, it was very difficult for him to achieve this position as a demoted general.

After the transfer of soldiers and horses, under the arrangement of Guo Tu, the prime minister, and Xin PI, the soldiers and horses transferred from each county gathered quietly towards Zhuo county and Julu County. If people didn't carefully observe, they could hardly find that tens of thousands of elite Wei soldiers had been gathered in each County.Of course, the 20000 Xiandeng dead men under Ju Yi and the 30000 Hebei cavalry under Jiang Qi are still in Nanpi, waiting only about a month before the war.

According to the result of Yuan Shao's discussion with others, the state of Wei will launch a fatal attack on the state of Yan in March next year. At that time, it will send 50000 cavalry troops and 100000 soldiers to capture Guangyang and Yuyang counties at one stroke, and control the three richest counties of Youzhou in the hands of the state of Wei. Then, depending on the situation of the war, it will see whether it will continue to send troops to youpeiping.

It took more than an hour for Xinpi to explain the war arrangements for next year to the public. As soon as his voice fell, Pingxi general Yan Liang began to say, "my Lord, will the Tang army let our army kill Gongsun Zan?"

"Don't worry, general. The state of Tang will send troops to help in this war. Therefore, the king will arrange 50000 troops in Julu County under the command of the general to resist the attack of the Tang army." "But..." As soon as Yan Liang stepped down, Yuan Tan stood up and asked, "Mr. Xin, if the cavalry of the Tang army went deep into the hinterland of Hebei Province as they did a few years ago and destroyed it wantonly, wouldn't the grain harvest in Chengdu this year be affected?"

"What you have said is true. We have already considered this situation." SimpI said with a smile, "so once the war starts, the king will order all the counties and counties in the country to be ready. This winter, beacon towers must be built in the cities at the junction of our country and the state of Tang. Once the cavalry of the Tang army appears, they will light the beacon fire to warn. As for those cavalry, although we have little way to deal with them at present, they want to attack our cities It's impossible. As for what the young master said, the question of food should be answered by Lord Xu you. "
