Seeing that Gao Jianchang's words and deeds were quite polite, the Youzhou soldiers said unhurriedly: "Although Karasuma and Eastern Xianbei sent troops to Youzhou, however, their two troops and horses have not fought with Youzhou soldiers and horses so far, but they are only stationed hundreds of miles away from the border, and they seem to be waiting. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info Could it be that General Gao, before you sent out your troops, you didn't send scouts to inquire about the military situation?"

The latter sentence seems to have a little contempt, as if to say that Gao Jianchang, as a general, doesn't even understand this.

Although Gao Jianchang was dissatisfied, he was not angry. The other party is just a child of a ruined family, there is no need to worry about him now, after using his intelligence to fight Youzhou, you can knead it as much as you want, and see if he dares to be so rampant in front of this general.

As for what he said about sending scouts to investigate the military situation of Karasuma and Xianbei in the east, Gao Jianchang really didn't think about it. Actually, Gao Jianchang is not to blame. In the past, what happened in the Central Plains, Karasuma and the Eastern Xianbei and other alien races all moved when they heard the wind, and their movements were extremely fast, and where could it be like this time, the soldiers and horses were dispatched, and they had not yet fought with the soldiers and horses of Youzhou, which was simply contrary to common sense. Of course, Gao Jianchang naturally didn't know that Karasuma and Eastern Xianbei had suffered losses in the hands of Yuan Chang and had learned lessons, so naturally they would not be as excited as before, but were watching the actions of other forces. Originally, Karasuma and Eastern Xianbei were counting on each other to make the first move, and they waited and watched before making a move, but who knows, the situation they expected did not happen, but it was a small country like Goguryeo that made the first move. In this case, they are also willing to watch the play leisurely on the side, and it would be better to wait for the benefits to make a move.

In the past, when turmoil broke out in the Central Plains, the surrounding foreign countries directly looted without the slightest hesitation. And because Goguryeo was far away from the Central Plains, they waited until they received information before making a move, and the cities at the border gates were already prepared, so that Goguryeo often did not gain much benefit after sending troops. Therefore, this time, when I heard that Youzhou had just changed its master, and Karasuma and Eastern Xianbei sent troops to Youzhou at the same time, the king of Goguryeo and the ministers of Goguryeo did not discuss anything, nor did they send scouts to investigate, and directly let Gao Jianchang lead the troops to attack Youzhou, and then get some benefits first; moreover, Goguryeo borders Liaodong County, and it is relatively remote from the Central Plains, and usually the Han court will not pay too much attention to them, at most let them take some benefits. However, Gao Jianchang didn't expect that when their army was still on the way, the city of Liaodong County had already made defensive preparations, and the walls were clear, and the nearby villages and towns could not grab anything at all, so they could only come to attack the city. Then, the soldiers and horses led by Tai Shi Ci and Yu Ban also followed closely to Liaodong County, and the next development situation was different from what Gao Jianchang expected, and in desperation, Gao Jianchang could only send the news back to Marudu and let the King of Goguryeo and the ministers invite helpers.

Now listening to the words of the Youzhou soldiers, he knew that after the emotional Karasuma and the eastern Xianbei sent troops, they did not immediately start a war with the Youzhou soldiers and horses, but they did it stupidly and directly, although they said that they took Benxi City, but they did not get any benefits, and now Gao Jianchang's third brother died in the hands of Tai Shici, thinking about Gao Jianchang felt a little blocked.

Gao Jianchang suppressed the unhappiness in his heart, frowned and asked: "Karasuma and Eastern Xianbei are barbarians, and every time they send troops, they are simply and directly, why have they not fought with Youzhou soldiers and horses after this dispatch, what is the reason?"

Gao Jianchang just asked casually, and did not expect the other party to give him an answer.

"Hey, hey!"

Who knew that the Youzhou soldier smiled, as if he knew the reason, and seeing Gao Jianchang's inquiring gaze, he continued: "I think General Gao also knows that the former Youzhou Mu is Gongsun Zhan. At that time, the current Youzhou Mu Yuan Chang and Jizhou Mu Yuan Shao jointly sent troops to attack Youzhou, and Gongsun Zhan's predecessor Youzhou Mu Liu Yu died in the hands of Gongsun Zhan, so his son Liu He contacted Karasuma, Eastern Xianbei and other alien races attacked Gongsun Chan from the rear, who knows, the current Youzhou Mu Yuan Chang didn't know what medicine he had taken wrong, and he actually let Gongsun Zhan's soldiers and horses ignore it, but instead sent troops to take a detour to attack Karasuma and Eastern Xianbei and other alien races, the other party suffered heavy losses without vigilance, so that he was afraid of Youzhou, so the troops did not start immediately. ”

This Youzhou soldier is the son of the Lu family in Fanyang, Lu Dao. Of course, he is actually a child of the Lu family who follows Lu Yu's family, that is to say, in fact, this time he came to see Gao Jianchang is Guo Jia's strategy, the so-called fraudulent surrender. If you want to deceive a cautious person like Gao Jianchang, you naturally can't be full of lies, it is best to be seven points true and three points false, so that Gao Jianchang can be blindfolded, at least, according to the current situation, Gao Jianchang already has a very deep trust in Lu Dao.

"I see!"

Gao Jianchang suddenly realized why Karasuma and Eastern Xianbei, who used to be very neat and tidy, hesitated this time, and the feeling was that they had suffered at the hands of Yuan Chang. Therefore, it is not necessary to deal with Karasuma and Eastern Xianbei without too many soldiers and horses, only a few soldiers and horses need to be arranged to defend the city, which can deter Karasuma and Eastern Xianbei, and Yuan Chang can use the extra soldiers and horses to deal with them Goguryeo, and when they are finished with Goguryeo, it will be too late for Karasuma and Eastern Xianbei to do anything, because at that time, Yuan Chang has already left his hands free to clean up their two defeated men.

"Strong man, the third question General Ben already knows the reason, so what is the reason for daring to ask the first two questions?"

Gao Jianchang's first question was that Yuan Chang had any confidence that he would be able to wipe out the more than 200,000 soldiers and horses united by Goguryeo and other countries in one fell swoop, and the second question was why Yuan Chang would deal with them first Goguryeo, and instead ignore the former great enemies Karasuma and Dongfang Xianbei.

"Humph!"

Lu Dao snorted coldly, showing a strong sense of superiority on his face at the right time, and said indifferently: "The reason why Yuan Chang is confident that he will solve all your joint troops and horses General Gao is naturally because he has a clever plan. General Gao wants to know that the intelligence of my Central Plains people is higher than yours, even if you have more troops, how can you easily solve you with a few sub-plans. ”

"Yes, yes! What the strong man said is that General Ben admires the wisdom of your Central Plains people. Gao Jianchang agreed with a smiling face, but in his heart, he couldn't wait to drag Lu Dao down and split the five horses.

A down-and-out family disciple dares to look down on him as a dignified general, no matter how wise you Central Plains people are, what can you do, you are not often robbed by our Goguryeo, and what can we do? Thinking that Fanyang Lu clan, a dignified family, was wiped out by Yuan Chang, so he dared to pose in front of this general, and when Youzhou was solved, he must make him look good.

"That's natural, it seems that General Gao also knows that your wisdom is not at the same level as our Central Plains people. Lu Dao continued to belittle Gao Jianchang for a while, and then said: "Moreover, there is a military advisor under Yuan Chang's command, who has outstanding intelligence, and can be ranked among the top three in my Central Plains. Of course, I don't know what kind of trick Yuan Chang used this time, and I can't know with my identity. ”

Gao Jianchang snorted in his heart, and did not doubt Lu Dao's words. After all, Lu Dao is a disciple of the Fan Yang Lu family, and after Yuan Chang destroyed the Lu family, it would be good to be able to appoint them, where would they enter the core of the management. Put it in their Goguryeo, as long as it is an enemy, they will be directly destroyed, and there will never be a single one left, so as not to leave a disaster. However, the people of the Central Plains boast of benevolence and righteousness, and love to buy people's hearts, obviously, in Gao Jianchang's heart, the reason why Yuan Chang appointed Lu Dao was just to buy people's hearts. However, Gao Jianchang didn't know that the matter of the Lu family was divided into two factions. Lu Yi, who went to Goguryeo to ask the king of Goguryeo to send troops, was the faction that opposed Yuan Chang, while Lu Yu was the faction that supported Yuan Chang. At that time, Lu Yi only asked the king of Goguryeo to send troops to make Yuan Chang unhappy, and did not tell the situation of the Lu family, so that Gao Jianchang did not know the inside story and believed Lu Dao. Otherwise, he would definitely not believe Lu Dao so easily. Of course, Gao Jianchang also tested Lu Dao before.

"I see, it seems that General Ben is going to beware of Yuan Chang's scheme!" Gao Jianchang nodded, agreeing with Lu Dao's words, and then continued to ask: "Strong man, then do you know why Yuan Chang sent troops to deal with us?"

"This, I don't know very well, what does Yuan Chang think, how can he let me know?"

Lu Dao shook his head, seeing Gao Jianchang's disappointed expression on his face, he sneered in his heart, lengthened his voice, and said, "Although I don't know what Yuan Chang's purpose is, I have some ideas after analyzing it. ”

Belch!

Gao Jianchang almost didn't hold it in his throat in one breath, and was hung by Lu Dao like this, if he didn't still need Lu Dao now, he couldn't wait to cut Lu Dao immediately.

"What is the opinion of the strong man, this general is willing to listen to it!"

Lu Dao was not in a hurry to speak, he took a sip of wine unhurriedly, shook his head and shook his head, and when Gao Jianchang was about to get impatient, he said: "The reason why Yuan Chang sent troops to Goguryeo is nothing more than two reasons, for the sake of troops and war horses. ”

"What do you mean by this, and please make it clear to the strong man, and the general should be grateful. ”

Although Lu Dao told the reason, Gao Jianchang still didn't understand, Gao Jianchang secretly thought to himself, is there really a gap between their IQ and the IQ of the Central Plains people, and he can't even figure it out?

Lu Dao smiled slightly, and once again showed an expression on his face that the IQ of your barbarians is low, and when he had enough contempt for Gao Jianchang, he said: "To put it simply, Yuan Chang wants to get troops and war horses, and pay attention to you Goguryeo, of course, not only you Goguryeo, but also Buyeo, Wofu, Lou Ru, Who would have thought that you Goguryeo would cooperate with Yuan Chang so much and invite reinforcements from these countries, and now, Yuan Chang doesn't even have to think about the reason for sending troops. ”

"This... Please forgive the general for being stupid, and please explain it in detail. Gao Jianchang felt that he was about to be dizzy, and the more he said it, the more he didn't understand.

Looking at Gao Jianchang's expression, Lu Dao smiled secretly in his heart, I'm about to faint, this is what I want, otherwise, how can I lead you to be fooled.

Lu Dao shook his head and sighed, his contempt for Gao Jianchang was already very obvious, but Gao Jianchang could only suppress his anger and wait for Lu Dao's explanation. Lu Dao paused for a while, and then said unhurriedly: "General Gao, I think you also know that my Central Plains is now in a state of war, and there are many princes on all sides, competing for hegemony, and everyone wants to be the king. Yuan Chang was previously a county commander under Yuan Shao, the pastor of Jizhou, and later became a county guard. In the future, I don't know how he coaxed Yuan Shao to send troops to Youzhou with him, and made Yuan Chang a pastor in Youzhou. It can be seen from this that Yuan Chang is also an ambitious person who wants to plot the world. However, all parties in the world are powerful, with countless soldiers and horses, and Yuan Chang wants to plot the world, but he is afraid that his strength is not enough. Therefore, he had to have enough troops and horses. Next door to Youzhou are Bingzhou and Jizhou, both of which are Yuan Shao's territory, and Yuan Chang is naturally unable to attack; to the north, there are Karasuma and the Xianbei in the east, and other foreign races, although Yuan Chang had defeated them before, but it was because of surprise that he could do so, otherwise, with the strength of the foreign races such as Karasuma and the Xianbei in the east, how could Yuan Chang defeat them? In this way, only your Goguryeo and other countries are the most suitable targets, and they will become Yuan Chang's source of troops and a place to raise horses. The strength of your Goguryeo and other countries is weak, and it is too far behind that of the Central Plains. Therefore, according to my estimate, the reason why Yuan Chang transferred most of his troops and horses to Liaodong County was actually to rob your people and horses, and after taking your Goguryeo, Yuan Chang would inevitably find other reasons to send troops to Wofu, Buyeo, Louru, and Huiqian. Who knows, the reason for sending troops doesn't need Yuan Chang to think about, but your Goguryeo did it for him. Of course, these are some of my subtle thoughts, and as for the reason why Yuan Chang insisted on sending troops to Goguryeo, it is unknown. ”

Gao Jianchang didn't even have to think about it, he already completely agreed with Lu Dao's analysis in his heart.

Although they often plundered the territory of the Central Plains, Gao Jianchang also admitted that in terms of combat effectiveness, they were not the opponents of the Central Plains at all, and they had no advantage at all in other aspects except for the advantage in troops. As for the northern alien races such as Karasuma and Eastern Xianbei, Gao Jianchang also admitted that their Goguryeo is not an opponent of others, and in terms of fierceness and barbarism, Goguryeo is no match for a finger of others. In this way, Yuan Chang concentrated all his forces in their direction, and the purpose was already obvious, which were the two reasons analyzed by Lu Dao, for their population and war horses.

Gao Jianchang was also a little amazed in his heart, when they asked Goguryeo to send troops to Wofu, Buyeo and other countries, they used Yuan Chang to plot against them. Who knows, one of the reasons they casually said at the time turned out to be the truth. Now it seems that fortunately, they invited reinforcements from these countries at the beginning, otherwise, in the face of 100,000 soldiers and horses in Youzhou, they Goguryeo is afraid that it will not be enough.

After feeling some emotion in his heart, the smile on Gao Jianchang's face became even brighter, he looked at Lu Dao, and said with a gentle face: "Strong man, I don't know what important confidential information I have to tell this general this time?"

Lu Dao's heart was shocked, but the expression on his face remained the same, and the secret Dao seemed to be about to get to the point. (To be continued.) )
