"Sir, these grains and grasses are really horses given to us by the lord."
Li Jue and the four looked at the countless grains and grasses as if in a dream.
They couldn't help but ask, hoping to get a positive answer from Jia Xu to confirm their inner joy.
Jia Xu naturally ignored Li Jue, who was acting like a fool at this time.
Instead, he turned to Li Meng and asked, "General, the imperial court really only has less than 40,000 troops."
"Well, there are actually only less than 30,000 capable warriors.
The other 10,000 or so are newly recruited soldiers and cannot be used for much purpose."
Li Meng nodded affirmatively, but after thinking for a moment, he added: "However, this is just a superficial appearance.
The number of people on board.
I can’t tell you exactly.”
"There are 10,000 county troops, composed of private soldiers that Wang Yun had raised before; 30,000 Bingzhou wolf cavalry, 20,000 veterans, and 10,000 new recruits; and 10,000 Huben forbidden troops.
Apart from this, are there any other troops?"
Jia Xu frowned, not because he was worried about his own plan, but because he was worried about meeting these idiots under Dong Zhuo: As a lieutenant general in the imperial court, he didn't even know the soldiers and horses of Chang'an, and he still had the nerve to shout Join forces with the Ma family to conquer Chang'an in one fell swoop Just talking about conquering Chang'an, a certain lord has already done it, and there is no need to join forces with you.
Jia Xu smiled bitterly.
I really don't understand where these people's confidence comes from.
"Well, maybe these are the troops in Chang'an.
However, there are still some soldiers from Jingzhao and Fengyi counties.
A few days ago, there were also a lot of rebel soldiers who fled into the two counties."
Li Meng also frowned at this time.
In his opinion, , captured the two counties and sent troops to knock on Chang'an.
It was simply impossible to rely on more than 70,000 troops and horses, not to mention the high walls and thick walls that the ancient capital of Chang'an was proud of.
"It doesn't matter.
It's winter now and it's not easy to mobilize troops.
And if there are a lot of deserters in the two counties, that would be even better."
Jia Xu thought over his plan in detail, and after finding that there was nothing missing, he revealed a meaningful expression. said to Li Meng with a smile.
Then, he walked towards the big tent and murmured: "As people get old, their bones are really failing.
After standing for a while, they can't stand the cold.
This food and grass is enough for 100,000 people for more than three months.
The general should hurry up."
Order the inventory to be taken."
The last sentence was said to Li Jue, Guo Si and others.
After hearing this, those people naturally hurriedly agreed.
As for those who followed Jia Xu back to the main tent, besides Niu Fu and Li Meng, there was also Zhang Xiu who hesitated for a moment, then gave up counting the food and fodder and followed him inside.
"Sir, the Ma family has one hand reaching to the sky.
After a certain person obtains this food and grass, he only needs to recruit civilians to escort him, and he can send troops into Chang'an within a few days."
As soon as he entered the account, Zhang Xiu held up the warm wine and respectfully handed it to Jia.
Pour the wine.
There was an excited look on his face, as if the time to make great achievements was just around the corner.
"The Major General took it for granted.
Seventy thousand soldiers with demoralized troops attacked the Western capital of Chang'an with 50,000 soldiers in winter."
Jia Xu shook his head and asked Zhang Xiu with a smile: "The Major General thought he could win in one battle."
"Of course it's impossible.
Now that someone has entered the Ma family, it still needs to be decided by Mr.
Li Jue and Guo Si."
Li Jue and Guo Si are obviously not the people who are responsible for counting and hoarding food and grass.

After Fan Chou and Zhang Ji take charge of the overall situation in external affairs, The two of them also entered the big tent and happened to hear Jia Xu's question.
"The matter is clear.
Can the general submit to the Ma family now?"
Jia Xu was sure that he had completely gathered these Dong Zhuo's old troops at this moment, so he asked openly so that he could establish a name to be his subordinate and facilitate his plans in the future.
"The Ma family treats someone like this, how can someone be a treacherous person?
Military advisor, I have sworn to submit to the Ma family.
If someone has second thoughts, they will be killed by both humans and gods."
Li Jue and Guo Si were in tune this time, and they both knelt down. vow.
Li Meng and Zhang Xiu also knelt down immediately: "I am willing to follow the Ma family and serve to the death."
"It's very good.
Ma Jiadeer and other loyal people are even more powerful."
Jia Xu stroked his short goatee and smiled.
He stood up and helped everyone up one by one.
Then he said: "In that case, please give the order to the generals."
Let the soldiers cut down the trees and set up camp around the village.
After this winter, I will definitely let you sit high in the court hall."
"This" everyone was a little stupid for a moment, especially Guo Si, who was so impatient, he directly asked: "Military advisor, you are extremely resourceful, why don't you think of capturing Chang'an, opening up the road for someone to return to Liangzhou, and letting someone return to his hometown?"
, but let a certain person suffer here.”
"General Guo, although I have a strategy, I can't turn stones into gold or scatter beans into soldiers.
The current situation, not to mention that winter is not suitable for certain troops to march, even if we march, do you think we can do it with more than 70,000 rebels?
Able to conquer the two auxiliaries of the capital and the capital along the way, and defeat the western capital of Chang'an."
"Then there is help from the Ma family."
Guo Bang blurted out this sentence without even thinking about it.
When Jia Xu heard this, his face became calm, he stood up slowly, walked to Guo Bang, and said to Guo Bang with a ghostly look: "General Guo, are you submitting to the Ma family, or is the Ma family submitting to you?"
As soon as these words came out, Wusi immediately understood, drew his sword and walked behind Jia Xu, not only to protect Jia Xu, but also to strengthen Jia Xu's momentum.
And Niu Fu was also a discerning person.
Without saying a word, he came forward with Zhihu Chi'er and shouted: "My lord's intention is that you can conquer Chang'an without guessing.
My lord has already achieved it, so why do you need to wait?"
At this time, Fan Chou and Zhang Ji seemed to have just completed the matters at hand, and came to thank and submit to the account.
Seeing this situation, the two of them naturally knew that it was Guo Bang who caused trouble again.
After the two of them looked at each other, they knelt down and clasped their fists at the same time and said to Jia Xu: "A certain person is willing to lead the next step.
Submit to the Ma family, as a military advisor, I will serve you to the death if I have an assignment."
"Military advisor, I have said before that I am by no means a treacherous person.
Military advisor, if you need help, just ask."
Li Jue is a smart man.
In this situation, although he did not want to break up with Guo Si, he He will never cut off his own livelihood: once he comes, Fan Chou and Zhang Ji have obviously moved closer to the Ma family; secondly, the information brought by Li Meng shows that the road to return to the imperial court has been cut off; thirdly, Jia Xu has exhausted all plans, and the Ma family has such a skill to bring a large number of Food and grass were sent here, and Chang'an was captured without any effort before.
Li Jue is a villain, but he is different from Guo Si.
It can be said that he is a smart villain.
Therefore, at this time, he also expressed his attitude of siding with the Ma family.
When Guo Si saw this scene, he couldn't react for a moment.
He pointed at Li Jue, Fan Chou, Zhang Ji and others and said, "You, what's wrong with you?"
"It's nothing, it's just that you idiot wants to die, don't drag us with you."
Fan Chou had been dissatisfied with Guo Bang's stupid behavior since Jia Xu came, and couldn't help but say.
"I, I, I just wanted to ask a few more questions, military advisor, I don't mean anything else."
This is the kind of virtue Guo Bang has.

He bullies the weak, fears the strong, and has no independent opinion.
Now that the situation is like this, he begins to beg for mercy again.
When Jia Xu saw that the effect had been achieved, Fang Youyou returned to his seat and said, "I said that next spring equinox, you will definitely be sitting in the court.
At this moment, I ordered you to set up camp to survive the cold winter."
"Nuo", no one had any objection at this time, and all the generals bowed and accepted the order and retreated.
After Li Jue and others retreated, Jia Xu said to Li Meng: "General Li, if you dare to kill the imperial envoys here, you must have an excuse to return to Chang'an.
Jia has something to do."
"Commander, I have no plans to return to Chang'an."
Li Meng was confused, and Jia Xu was also confused.
Finally, Jia Xu had no choice but to smile bitterly and said: "It doesn't matter, General Li will call Chang'an and say that the rebels insisted on not disbanding and killed the imperial envoys.
And you were saved from death because of your comradeship, so you came here to return to life." " "Military advisor, it's good here.
Why do you have to send me back?"
Li Meng was a little depressed.
He didn't want to go back to Chang'an and suffer the idleness.
"Because, I still need you in Chang'an to cooperate with the Ma family's shadow."
At this point, Jia Xu couldn't help laughing, and finally uttered two words: "Fake rumors."
"Spreading rumors" Li Meng was dumbfounded: What's the benefit of a small rumor:
