Chapter 302 The First Player to Enter the Dragon Court Soft Position

It can’t be said to be a chess piece, but it should be considered a variable.

There are two variables in this campaign against Xu Zhao. The power represented by Dian Wei is a variable, and Lin Mu is also a variable.

After that, everyone began to discuss the strategy for conquering Xu Zhao. It turned out that before Lin Mu came, Cao Cao, Sun Jian, Liu Yao, Dian Wei and others had discussed strategies twice.

Dian Wei was a variable before.

“My army currently has 500,000 troops, and we have fought and defended seven rounds with the commanders Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin in Yuyao City! The losses were relatively low. Zhou Tai is a naval commander. He relied on the natural river [Yuyao River] of Yuyao City to resist the attack of our 250,000 naval forces with only 50,000 naval forces!”

“If Sima Lin Mu leads his army to attack from the right, he will be able to cut off their retreat and tie down part of their military strength. At that time, I will use all my troops to cross the river and attack hard, and capture Yuyao City in one fell swoop!” Sun Jian patted the table and said calmly.

"That's great. Sima Sun can disguise himself and try to cross the river to attack the city. When our army starts to attack the city from behind, Sima Sun's army can rush up and encircle Yuyao City! Alternate between real and fake." Lin Mu agreed with Sun Jian's strategy.

"However, after Juzhang fell, I believe Xu Zhao's army will react and send troops to snipe Sima Lin." Liu Yao next to him may have received some information and said lightly.

"Don't worry, Governor. The military forces of Yuyao City are restrained by Sima Sun and will not be dispatched at will. Xu Zhao may mobilize the military forces of Shangyu City to snipe us, but Yun Qi, the leading general of Shangyu City, is a loyal and righteous man. After Xu Zhao's rebellion, he was determined to surrender to our Han Dynasty court, but he never had the chance." Lin Mu confessed Yun Qi's plan.

Now that Lin Mu has become the Sima of the other department of Kuaiji County, he has achieved his goal, and he knows that Zhuji City and Wushang City have undergone tremendous changes. He will pull Yun Qi out of Xu Zhao's forces, and even make him the first general to oppose Xu Zhao, to inspire his own army and attack the enemy!

Dian Wei's position is the Sima of the other department of Yuzhang County. The troops he led are actually the defenders of Shan County City and Zhang'an City in Kuaiji County, located east of Wushang City!

The number reaches 600,000!

Then with Wang Lang's hidden army, it must be able to compete with Yan Baihu and Ling Cao in Wushang City!

Lin Mu did not ask much about the source of Dian Wei's army, and Liu Yao, Cao Cao, Sun Jian and others would not ask much, because even if they asked, they would have an excuse. The source of the army of Cao Cao's army, Sun Jian's army, Lin Mu and others were not explained, and the excuse of a village warrior serving the country could get away with it.

Lin Mu just couldn't imagine that after the armies of Taimo City and Dongye City were restrained by Lin Mu, there were still troops participating in this crusade!

Taiping Dao should not be underestimated, and the princes present should not be underestimated either!

Therefore, Lin Mu pulled Yun Qi out early, otherwise it would be bad to be killed by these cruel and hidden princes!

"Oh, Yun Qi?! Is it Yun Qi, the county magistrate of Shangyu City?" Sun Jian asked in confusion.

Sun Jian must know a lot about the information of the city garrison near Yuyao City.

"That's right! Yun Qi's hometown is in our Dongye County, and his family members are all loyal people of our dynasty. Yun Qi has been persuaded by us and is willing to submit to our dynasty! I didn't report it to the adults before, but I just thought of the plan of a surprise attack!"

"Now that I have seen the fierce plan of Sima Cao and Lord Wang, there is no need to do anything more." Lin Mu smiled lightly.

"Haha, that's great. As long as the military power of Shangyu City is used by us, the fall of Yuyao City is a foregone conclusion!" Sun Jian laughed.

"Sima Lin is indeed a lucky general. The recovery of the five coastal cities, Shangyu City, Yuyao City and other cities is all due to Sima Lin!" Liu Yao was very pleased to hear Lin Mu's words. He had never been able to open up the situation before, and Xu Zhao's army was very rampant and tenacious.

Until the recent appearance of Dian Wei and Lin Mu, Xu Zhao's power seemed to be at its end.

Liu Yao felt that the rebellion in Kuaiji County seemed to be resolved soon!

"As long as this rebellion is resolved, plus the merits of eliminating the bandits in the state, my qualifications will definitely be raised!" Liu Yao said happily in his heart.

Afterwards, everyone began to discuss the details of the strategy. Although Lin Mu made suggestions from time to time, the most important thing was Cao Cao and Sun Jian, who had a strong control over the situation.

Lin Mu kept learning beside him.

Cao Cao was able to capture Zhuji City head-on, but after the capture, Cao Cao's troops did not have the foundation to confront Xu Zhao head-on, so they had been forbearing.

He needed other troops to contain Xu Zhao's military power, so he waited for the offensive of Sun Jian and Wang Lang.

Now, the appearance of Dian Wei and Lin Mu made Cao Cao, Sun Jian and others determined to launch a full-scale attack.

…

Three days later, Cao Cao, Sun Jian and others left the governor's mansion with satisfaction.

Lin Mu also took Yu Jin and others to leave Shouchun City and return to Juzhang City.

When talking about military affairs, Dian Wei did not make things difficult for Lin Mu. Although Zhou Cang behind him was resentful, the lord was talking about things, and the followers could not interrupt.

After several days of meetings, Lin Mu gradually felt that the Taiping Dao might just suspect that Liu Pi died in Dongye County and was related to the people here, but they had no obvious evidence, and everything was speculation, so there was no direct conflict.

And Zhou Cang targeted Lin Mu so much, probably because he had an important relationship with Liu Pi, so he specifically targeted the people in Dongye County.

This visit to the Governor's Mansion went smoothly beyond his expectations!

Liu Yao did not mention Liu Pi's previous attempt to frame him, nor did he discuss other secret matters. He must have known all about it.

It's just that he has his own purpose, so he didn't say it clearly. Lin Mu would not take the initiative to propose it.

As a politician, Liu Yao did nothing but do well.

Lin Mu and his party took a carriage and rushed to the teleportation array.

"It's really annoying to meet Dian Wei this time! He is actually a super general in the top three of the God List. Zhang Jiao is lucky! It seems that the God General recruitment plan should be carried out in advance, otherwise he may be controlled by others everywhere! I wonder how much reputation is consumed to subdue a God General?" Lin Mu thought to himself.

At this time, the huge system announcement of the Huaxia District suddenly sounded:

"Ding!"

"——Huaxia District Announcement: Congratulations to player Ye Nantian for receiving the gift of the Dragon Court and becoming the county magistrate of Bowang County, Nanyang County, Jingzhou, and obtaining the [Dragon Court Soft Position]. Since Ye Nantian is the first player in the Huaxia District to enter the [Dragon Court Soft Position] of the Han Dynasty, the system rewards: reputation +50,000, a special building blueprint, and national legend +3."

"..."

"..."

Three consecutive Huaxia District announcements surprised countless Chinese people.

Finally, a newcomer appeared on the National Legend List:

1. Lin Mu, national legend 23;

2. Ye Nantian, national legend 3;

...

I didn't expect Ye Nantian to get the Dragon Court Soft Position! Even Lin Mu can't get such an official position for the time being.

The county magistrate is not comparable to the so-called Sima of other departments. It needs to be decided by the Dragon Court Central Committee. Even Liu Yao, the governor of Yangzhou, has no decision-making power, only the right to recommend.

County magistrates, prefects and other official positions are very important. The court attaches great importance to them. After all, the Han Dynasty is a national system of [county system].

It's not that Lin Mu doesn't want to be a county magistrate, but this county magistrate is not suitable for him.

Although the county magistrate can enjoy the fortune of the dragon court, there are too many restrictions.

The county magistrate is a pastoral official of a region and cannot leave the county under his jurisdiction at will, otherwise he will be punished.

Moreover, as a county magistrate, he cannot expand the army openly, that is not his responsibility.

And Lin Mu's county Sima can recruit soldiers from other states and counties.

Lin Mu obtained this position, firstly to pave the way for Zang Ba to return to Taishan County to recruit soldiers, and secondly, to have great convenience when he wants to go to other states and counties!

Recruiting soldiers is the most headache for many forces at present. Even if it is a player lord, it is impossible to leave the territory and recruit soldiers and farmers in the villages and towns of the Han Dynasty.

It is for this reason that the buildings that refresh the territory are so precious.

Even if Lin Mu captured five cities, he only relocated the citizens due to the war, not recruiting soldiers.
