Taking advantage of Liu Bei's efforts to gather generals and advisers, Li Su also quickly sorted out his thoughts.

How to drag the days when the prospects are still unclear in the past few days and wait for the "slow truth". At the same time, we also prepared for the small possibility of "in case Dong Zhuo really succeeds".

"If the general trend of Dong Zhuo and Wang Yun's incident has not changed, then Dong Zhuo should have been killed yesterday or the day before yesterday to light the sky lantern at the earliest, and the people of Chang'an will carnival for three days, and there will be a follow-up response tomorrow at the latest.

If someone takes the Bao ramp road and goes directly south from Yixian County to report to us, then we can also know that Dong Zhuo is dead four days later. But because of the difficulty of the slope road, Liu Bei did not install a standing fine work in Yixian County, so this possibility is not very likely. So I have to calculate according to 'the day when the messenger arrives in Chencang plus three more days', that is, six days at the earliest, we will know whether Dong Zhuo is dead or not.

In order to prevent bad things from happening because of righteous indignation, it is necessary to arrange the rhythm according to the six-day time difference in the transmission of information......"

Li Su shook the folding fan alone and roughly calculated the time first.

Six days, very precise quantitative analysis.

After calculating the time, Li Su quickly began to think about the second key question: how to deal with it.

"Regardless of whether Dong Zhuo is dead or not, now is not a good time to solve it by force, so we can only make a false gesture and show that we have tried to attack, and the result of the battle is not important. Moreover, this feint statement must avoid the route of the real Northern Expedition in the future.

For more than a year, I have been asking Fa Zheng to preside over the repair of Chencang Road, and also to shelter displaced people in Tuntian, Sanguan County, which is the route of the Northern Expedition in the future. This means that this feint attack must not take the Chencang Road, and the rest is the Bao Slope Road and the Meridian Valley......"

In history, Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition had four options, and there was Qishan Road in the westernmost part, but Li Su did not have this option, because it was Tianshui who went to Tianshui by taking the Qishan Road, which was still in Han Sui's hands, not Dong Zhuo's territory, only the first three roads were to Dong Zhuo's direct territory.

And because Dong Zhuo's base is Chang'an, and Chang'an is also the most powerful army, the Meridian Valley route is more and more suicidal. After calculating it in this way, Li Su didn't bother much, and found that there was only the option of the praise ramp left.

"I can only persuade Liu Bei to take the praising slope, but fortunately, if you really take the praise ramp, you can be regarded as a famous teacher. First of all, the praise slope is the "plank road" bait spare tire when Han Xin 'repaired the plank road in the bright and darkened Chen Cang' in history. Since we will also darken Chen Cang in the future, of course we have to take the plank road now. And the exit of the slope is the dock.

Yiwu was originally built by Dong Zhuo for his old age, and the defense facilities were very strong, but there were not necessarily many garrisons. Moreover, Dong Zhuo has now been deceived by Wang Yun to go to Chang'an, and the main forces of his descendants, such as the Flying Bear Army, must have also left Hewu and followed him to Chang'an, which is the weakest point in time for Yiwu's defense force.

In this case, under the circumstance that it is impossible for our army to really capture Chang'an, it is enough to show the righteousness of attacking Yiwu. The other is that once we go halfway along the slope, we hear that Dong Zhuo is really dead and things have reversed, so we can withdraw our troops at any time.

And if we really go too fast, Dong Zhuo dies and we don't have time to get the news, then it's not a loss, in case we can enter the Yiwu before Lu Bu, or if Lu Bu is just in a hurry to get rid of Diao Chan and doesn't have enough troops and attention to loot all the money stored in the Yiwu, let's just follow to get a vote, it's all the looting that Dong Thief is going to eat for the rest of his life......"

After settling these political accounts in his heart, Li Su had completely determined that he persuaded Liu Bei to send troops when Liu Bei had to send troops.

Of course, Li Su didn't calculate the military account at all, because he originally planned to "put on a show, and run away if he can't fight".

However, in order to be responsible, the military meeting still has to be held, and the military accounts still have to be done on official business for a while, and they will be calculated at the meeting.

……

When Liu Bei asked Lu Su to convene an emergency meeting, he himself did not forget to do something righteous first.

After working with Li Su for many years, Liu Bei's original mistakes of not caring about hypocrisy and righteousness have also changed a lot, and he has begun to pay attention to the imperial court system.

So he returned to his Nanzheng Hou Mansion as soon as possible, and returned to a side courtyard in the back house.

Seeing Liu Bei come back, his two concubines, Mi Zhen and Zhen Jiang, who were originally gossiping, got up to greet each other: "Husband is rare to return early today." ”

Liu Bei's face was gloomy: "What about Miao'er?" I have some bad news to tell her. ”

Mi Zhen hurriedly led Liu Bei to the side courtyard and found Princess Wannian.

Wannian Princess Liu Miao was taken to Nanzheng more than a year ago when she was received, so now she is thirteen years old and has a lot of sensibility. Seeing that the uncle who was sheltering her came in, Liu Miao hurriedly got up and greeted him politely: "I've seen Uncle Huang." ”

Liu Bei sat down on the stone table in the garden, sighed and said bitterly: "Today, the law is being reported, Your Majesty actually feels that he is not destined for heaven because of a serious illness, and wants to let the Han world give Dong thief!" Dong Thief had already set off from Hewu to Chang'an four or five days ago, and maybe he had already ascended the throne now. ”

Liu Miao was so shocked that she almost fainted: "What? How could the co-brother be like this? He is a child, how can he know how to abandon the ancestral inheritance! And the Dong thief is so brutal, even if he gives in, I'm afraid he won't be spared his life at all! ”

Liu Miao's opinion is actually similar to the opinion of some die-hard Han subjects when the news of Cao Pi's usurpation of the Han dynasty came in history. I feel that if Dong Zhuo really succeeds, he will endure it for a while at most, but sooner or later he will kill the unstable factor of abolishing the emperor.

Liu Bei was also reminded by his niece, gritted his teeth and said, "I don't know, I have to wait for news." However, I have resolved to raise an army to save the country. Since His Majesty does not know the life and death, he can only focus on the Han family, and the taboo of whether the clan relatives can lead troops into Beijing is also indiscriminate. ”

Liu Miao hurriedly expressed his position from the bottom of his heart: "Our brothers, sisters and brothers are already blessed, and when they are in danger, the late imperial brother wants to be an ordinary rich man but can't get it, and he is tragically harmed by thieves. What's more, the emperor's brother personally announced to the world this time that he admits the virtue of no one and that the emperor's uncle is willing to send troops, which is the emperor's uncle to save the Han Dynasty for 400 years. ”

Liu Bei nodded slightly, and said something to his niece and nephew about the concern between relatives, and then went to the front hall of the Hou Mansion to attend the military meeting.

As a princess, Liu Miao can't help anything, but the reason why Liu Bei, as a "guardian", insists on saying it is also to show his loyalty to the royal family, and in the future, future generations will ask about this historical material, and there are also many authoritative witnesses, which can prove that "Liu Bei's first reaction when he heard that Dong thief usurped the throne was what it was".

It can be regarded as a crooked fight, fortunately, Liu Bei said these words and had this meeting, if it was a week late, the mystery was revealed, everyone knew that Dong Thief was dead, and the so-called emperor Zen let Jiangshan be just a scene of Wang Yun, so Liu Bei's loyal performance would not have a chance to be staged.

Now, at least up to the princess, down to the ordinary strategists and generals in the camp, they have really seen the loyalty of the lord, whether outsiders believe it or not, it is of great help to unite the morale of the team.

Liu Bei really didn't miss all the opportunities to win people's hearts, but he was indeed sincere. It's like if a person really has acted all his life, you can't say that he acted.

……

When Liu Bei came out, Lu Su, Fa Zheng, Xu Huang, and Dian Wei were already waiting, not to mention Li Su. In addition, there are some civil officials who have been newly demoted in the past two years and were originally under Liu Yan, such as Zheng Du, Cheng Ji, and Qin Mi, whose seniority positions are relatively low, and they were also absorbed by Liu Bei and came to Hanzhong on business.

The scene will not be repeated, the civil and military already know the current situation, Liu Bei went straight to the point and let him discuss the thief's strategy.

Li Su wanted to report the answer directly, but he still had to act, so he had to wait for Fa Zheng to introduce the situation step by step.

Liu Bei: "Xiaozhi, you have been in Sanguan for a long time, and you have dealt with a lot of military information, you first talk about the situation of the lieutenant generals under Dong Thief who are now stationed." It's also to blame that I always thought that the big war was still far away, and I didn't care about the military situation in the past few months. ”

Fa Zheng replied very competently: "Lord Yu, now there are four Zhonglang generals under the command of Dong Thief, who are stationed in the 'Four Stops of Qin'.

The five senses Zhonglang will Niu Futun Anyi, and prevent Pu Hanjin, and there are lieutenants Li Dao and Guo Yan under it;

Hu Ben Zhonglang will Lu Butun Lantian, defend the military pass, under which there are lieutenants Zhang Liao and Zhang Ji; However, because Lu Bu was a part-time guard in the forbidden middle school, the defense of Wuguan Road was actually cut off by Zhang Ji all year round;

The right middle lang will simmer in Tunhuayin, reject Tongguan, Hongnong, and Cuihan, and there are lieutenants Wang Fang and Yang Ding;

Zuo Zhonglang will Dong Yuetun Chen Cang, anti-dispersion pass, under which there is the school captain Fan Chou. ”

Li Su also didn't care about the military situation for a long time, so he listened carefully to Fa Zheng's introduction, and soon noticed a part that was different from the original history - originally Dong Zhuo's subordinates should now have two more lieutenant generals, namely Hu Zhen and Xu Rong, but Xu Rong was brought back to Liaodong by Li Su's butterfly effect in advance, and Hu Zhen was killed by Zhao Yun in the Battle of Shangluo last year.

Correspondingly, it was Lu Bu, who withdrew to Chang'an with the rest of Hu Zhen's troops, and finally became a Zhonglang general, and I have to say that Dong Thief is quite stingy with his righteous son. Just because Lu Bu is a member of the state army, he has now become a lieutenant general by chance.

At the same time, because of Li Su's butterfly effect, the sphere of influence of the Dong Alliance in the Sili region was larger than that of the same period in history, and Zhu Jun still guards the ruined land around Luoyang, calling himself Henan Yin, and officially broke with Dong Zhuo.

And Dong Zhuo also didn't want to spend more with Zhu Jun, so he took the initiative to retreat a little, and only left a Zhonglang general Duan Xuan in Cuihan Road to Shoutong Pass as the head and take care of Hongnong.

Because if according to the original history, the Cuihan Road will put two Zhonglang generals in the direction of Dong Zhuo, in addition to Duan Xuan, Dong Yue should also be in Mianchi, in order to completely hold the three hundred miles of Cuihan Road in his own hands, and now it is changed to shrink and only guard one exit, and the middle one or two hundred miles of mountainous areas is not needed.

And the reason why Dong Yue was transferred to Chen Cang is also obvious - Liu Yan in the same period of history is too weak, Dong Zhuo does not bother to defend at all, and the current Liu Bei is much stronger than Liu Yan in the same period, Chen Cang of course has to focus on defense, and it is worth sending a Zhonglang general to sit in charge.

After Li Su listened, he shook his fan and touched his beard and concluded: "In this way, our army's Northern Expedition, Anyi Niufu and Huayin Duan Simmer are all hundreds of miles away. It is possible to intercept us, first of all, Dong Yue at the Sanguan Pass, followed by Lu Bu at the Meridian Valley Pass in Lantian. From this point of view, if our army wants to symbolically go on a northern expedition, it can only avoid Chencang Road and Meridian Road, and if there is no choice, I think it will send thousands of people out of the praise ramp road, and go to Hewu to wave the flag and shout bluff, that is. Yun Changyide is not here, it is impossible to really win. ”

When Lu Su heard this, he asked worriedly: "If you really take the ramp, how can the transportation of military rations be guaranteed?" The ramp is a plank road. ”

Li Su: "Just bring half a month's grain, if you can surprise the enemy because of the grain, you will search the four fields to find the enemy's small troops to fight a field battle, and it is enough to frustrate the enemy's spirit and raise the prestige of our army, and if the food is not enough, withdraw directly." ”

Liu Bei was very unwilling when he heard it, but Lu Su and Fa Zheng had already seconded it: "We also agree with Boya's proposal, now there are only thousands of soldiers in Hanzhong, and it is impossible to fight with Dong Thief." We sent troops to win a small victory and leave, just to show our determination to fight the thief, so that Dong Thief could see that someone dared to fight for righteousness as soon as he usurped the Han Dynasty. ”
