Regarding the union of Li Dao, Guo Yan, Fan Chou, and Zhang Ji, the personnel of the "dark department" have already submitted this information to Liu Yu. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
After receiving the news, Liu Yu called Fu Zhi and said earnestly: "Gonghe, this time it's troublesome." These four guys are actually united. ā
After glancing at the information, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, although the four of them are united, but I found that they are not of the same heart. Our army still has room to maneuver. The lord please see, the intelligence said that although the four of them were united, they divided the soldiers and horses into two parts, led by Li Dao and Guo Yan, and each other was in a position of fighting each other, echoing each other from afar. It is estimated that the other side must want to take advantage of the familiar terrain to confront our army, and then constantly disrupt our army's grain routes and force our army to retreat. However, since there are contradictions among the four of them that cannot be resolved, our army can start from them. ā
After listening to the analysis of the frustrated professor, Liu Yu said: "Does the prince want to use a divisive strategy? ā
Frustratedly, he said, "The lord is wise. ā
"So how do you do that? You also know that the other party has seized the weakness of our army's lack of food and grass, and this king estimates that this time the four of them should have wise people to give him advice. Our army has to be cautious. I'm afraid it's a bit difficult to get a discord. Liu Yu asked.
Fu Zhu smiled and said, "Don't worry, my lord, although they are united now. But there is no room for relaxation between Li Dao and Guo Yan. One of Li Wei's ears was shot by Guo Yan, and he felt that he should start with these two people, the two of them were short-tempered and easy to be tricked. As long as the two of them start to merge, then Guanzhong will be in the hands of the lord. ā
"Good!" Liu Yu finally smiled.
The two of them planned the details. First of all, Liu Yu's army must seize Hongmen, the terrain here is dangerous, it is the best support for attacking Chang'an, and Xiang Yu in history is also a garrison with this. Then Liu Yu engaged him and had to win, forcing him to retreat, but not in pursuit. Finally, he sent an envoy to recruit the four people, and the process of recruiting peace could be planned in detail, and then they were separated.
Liu Yu led more than 100,000 soldiers and horses to Chang'an, and a posture of taking Chang'an directly. The four Li Wei also received the news and hurriedly sent troops and horses to stop them. However, Liu Yu's army of more than 100,000 people was crushed, and without any strategy, Li Dao and the four of them had no way to stop it. In order not to be locked up in a small black house after going back, Dian Wei and Lu Bu even had the intention of making meritorious contributions, and they fought more bravely, and the generals who killed Li Dao and the four were unspeakable. According to later calculations, ten Xiliang generals died at the hands of the two of them in this battle. After several battles between the two sides, large and small, they all ended in the defeat of the Xiliang army.
After several defeats, Jia Xu made a decisive decision and suggested that Li Dao and Guo Yan return to Chang'an, occupy the counties around Chang'an, and prepare to fight Liu Yu and start a war of attrition.
But to Jia Xu's surprise, Liu Yu was not greedy for merit, but bypassed many cities, and after capturing Hongmen, he stopped.
After Jia Xu's analysis, he was shocked. Hongmen is too close to Chang'an, and the terrain is very suitable for the attacker. Jia Xu was flustered, the other party seemed to be well-planned, and he was not willing to fight a war of attrition with him at all.
And just when Jia Xu was preparing how to crack Liu Yu's plan, Liu Yu's envoy had already come to Li Wei's military tent.
Liu Yu's envoy this time was Huang San, who often traveled back and forth to Guanzhong and deceived Zhang Liao into opening letters to Guguan, Huang San often traded with Li Dao, so Li Dao knew him.
Seeing that it was his acquaintance, Li Dao asked, "Shopkeeper Huang, what are you doing here?" ā
"I'm here for the general. Dare to let the general know that Huang is working under King Zhao, and this time he came on the order of King Zhao. Huang San said.
Li Wei didn't expect that Huang San was actually Liu Yu's person, and scolded: "Okay, I said how Hangu Pass was broken so easily, it turned out that it was you, a spy, who kept passing the news to Liu Yu." Come on, drag it out, cut it off! The soldiers outside the big tent hurriedly came in and controlled Huang San.
Huang Sanmian said without changing his color: "General, the so-called each is his master, and Huang is also forced to do so. Because there is an old relationship with the general in the next, my lord has specially ordered me to come down and hope that the general can be in the sea. It's small to kill me, and it's very serious to cut off the general's back road, so the general thinks twice. ā
Li Dao thought about it for a while, and it also made sense, the so-called two armies did not fight each other, and Li Dao still understood this truth. Li Wei waved his hand and asked the soldiers to go down, and Huang San was also relieved.
"What did Liu Yu tell you to do? Hurry up and say, Ben won't have much time. Li Dao also wanted to know what Liu Yu had to say to himself.
After the danger to his life was lifted, Huang San said: "My lord King Zhao, this time I led more than 100,000 heavenly soldiers to come because the Son of Heaven secretly hated the general as Dong Zhuo's subordinate, so he wanted my lord to destroy the general." My lord had no choice but to come. But my lord has always been benevolent and virtuous, unwilling to increase killing, and at the same time admires the general's great talent, hoping that the general can abandon the darkness and return to the embrace of the court, and my lord will definitely wait for him in a high position. Here is my main recruit Anxin, please take a look at the general. ā
Huang San lifted Liu Yu's Zhao'an letter, and Li Dao's lieutenant took it and respectfully handed it over to Li Dao.
Li Dao glanced at Zhao Anxin, and inside was Liu Yu's words of admiration for Li Dao, hoping to turn the conflict into a jade silk. Liu Yu must ignore his previous suspicions, and at the same time recommend Li Dao as a hussar general.
Seeing Liu Yu so rewarded, Li Wei said that it was fake not to be moved.
"King Zhao's sincerity will be known. Mr. Huang, please go back. In the current situation, I can't make a sorry place for others. After reading it, Li Dao still decided to refuse.
Huang San said respectfully: "Since this is the case, then I will leave below." ā
Huang San turned around and left, so refreshing, Li Wei felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly stopped him and said, "Mr. Huang, I don't know about other people, can King Zhao have Zhao'an?" ā
"The level of the plot is too high for a person like me to guess. I really don't know the details below. However, when he came out, he saw General Li Su heading in the direction of General Guo. Huang San said meaningfully.
Huang San looked at Li Dao with a smile, and without saying a word, he left Li Dao's military camp.
Hearing this, Li Dao felt bad. Li Su's betrayal of Dong Zhuo was known to the entire Xiliang Army. Now that Li Su is in a high position with Liu Yu, it is difficult to ensure that Liu Yu arranged for Li Su to recruit Guo Yan. Li Dao decided to go to Guo Yan's military camp to find out.
When Li Su was under Dong Zhuo in his early years, he had a good relationship with Guo Yan, and this time Liu Yu also arranged for him to go to recruit Guo Yan, and explained to him that the purpose of Zhao'an was to separate Li Dao and Guo Yan. Li Su, who had not made an inch of success under Liu Yu, did not expect Liu Yu to value himself so much, patting his chest to ensure that he completed the task.
