Chapter 313: The Next Step
Yuan Shao's plot to merge the state, Liu Yu knew it in his heart.
With Guo Tu's ventilation report, Liu Yu had already taken relevant countermeasures.
The soldiers and horses of Bingzhou have been secretly mobilized, as long as Yuan Shao launches an attack on Bingzhou, Liu Yu guarantees that Yuan Shao will not be able to eat and walk around.
However, in order to confuse Yuan Shao, and at the same time to hide his whereabouts, Liu Yu planned to continue to make a name for himself in Wancheng, but secretly transferred his troops out and quietly left Wancheng. Liu Yu is going to give Yuan Shao a big one, so that Yuan Shao will remember it for the rest of his life.
When Liu Yu discussed this plan with the military division team, he was opposed by Chen Gong and Fu Zhi.
"My lord, under the opposition! An army of 100,000 marched north from Wancheng to merge with the state. How much time does it take? The lord can't do this, it's child's play. Chen Gong thought that Liu Yu's mobilization of troops and horses was child's play, and he was a little emotional.
Fu Zhu said euphemistically: "My lord, the annexation of the state has already been arranged, even if Yuan Shao wants to attack the annexation state, he will not be able to realize his plan at all." The main purpose of our army now is to expand its own power, and there is no need to do so. If you are not careful, the loss will be huge. ”
Liu Yu's face was gloomy, and his plan was actually refuted.
Chen Gonghe didn't care about Liu Yu's face, and said his reasons cracklingly, but he didn't agree anyway.
Jia Xu looked at Chen Gong and Fu Zhu with such an attitude, and was a little worried about Chen Gong and Fu Zhu. Although he is a newcomer, but all along, his subordinates must obey the lord, Chen Gong and Fu Zhu oppose Liu Yu so strongly, wouldn't Liu Yu be angry?
Liu Yu is not angry, it is fake, he is thinking that he is strong now, and there are few opponents in the world who are his opponents, and he can play as much as he wants. Liu Yu is a little too proud now.
Liu Yu has one good thing, that is, he is easy to listen to the absolutely correct reasons, and then convince himself.
"It's really not okay to go north and merge with the state?" Liu Yu's tone softened a little.
"Of course not!" Chen Gong's mouth frothed.
"Think twice!" Frustrated and unwavering.
"Wenhe, what do you think?" Liu Yu began to look for supporters and looked at Jia Xu hopefully.
Liu Yu's meaning was too obvious, and Chen Gong and Fu Zhu looked at Jia Xu with unkind faces.
Jia Xu felt a little bad, and after pondering for a while, he said: "The lord's move must have a deep meaning, and I don't know how to decide. What the two gentlemen said is also very reasonable, and the lord may wish to think about it again. ”
Jia Xu didn't offend people at all when he said this.
Chen Gong, Fu Zhu and Liu Yu invariably scolded the old fox in their hearts.
Liu Yu lost support, and he couldn't do exactly what he thought, so he could only say: "Okay, since that's the case." This king is not going to move to the state. But it's not a way for my 100,000 army to nest in Wancheng. To the east, Cao Cao was ready. In the south, he just signed an agreement with Liu Biao, and it seems very unwise to regret it now. There is no credibility for this king. ”
Liu Yu said this to explain his previous decision, and the three people present knew that they would not dwell on this issue too much, and directly ignored Liu Yu's explanation.
Fu Zhi had already made preparations and said, "My lord, have you forgotten your previous advice before sending troops?" There is a rich man in the west, waiting for us to go. ”
"Zhang Lu? But we're a little far away from Hanzhong now. Even if you run thousands of miles, there is still a Shangyong County in the middle, which is Liu Biao's territory. Liu Biao will not let our army pass. Liu Yu immediately knew who it was. But attacking Zhang Lu is too unrealistic, and Liu Biao alone will not let him pass, because Shangyong and the river will go straight down to Xiangyang.
Chen Gong took out a book slip and said respectfully: "Don't worry, my lord, Zhang Lu has already sent it to the door." ”
Liu Yu took the book, and after reading it, he knew why.
Liu Yan died, died of illness in bed, and there is gossip that he was addicted to alcohol and overindulged, which led to his deterioration and his last life. He was succeeded by Liu Zhang, a man of weak character. After Liu Yan's death, his ministers began to get restless, and Yizhou became a miasma. Liu Zhang was so busy dealing with internal problems that he was dying, so he ignored Zhang Lu in Hanzhong. Zhang Lu saw that the world was chaotic again, and he felt that his opportunity had come. First of all, Zhang Lu marched to Yizhou, but was rejected by Liu Zhang at Jianmen Pass, and it was difficult to move an inch. Zhang Lu returned in vain and sulked to himself.
Later, Liu Yu sent troops to Wancheng, and then Liu Biao and Yuan Shu fought, Zhang Lu saw the opportunity, waved his army eastward, and took advantage of Liu Biao's lack of attention to conquer Shangyong.
"Zhang Lu, this kid doesn't seem to be loyal and honest as he appears. It's time for this king to educate him and let him know how to behave. "Liu Yu decided to attack Zhang Lu.
"Lord, wise!" Chen Gong and the other three patted Liu Yu's ass.
"Alright, don't talk about flattery. How? "Liu Yu is no longer verbose, since he is going to attack Zhang Lu, then he has to make a plan.
"The lord can order Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and General Huang Xu to lead 30,000 soldiers and horses, with General Zhang Liao as the main commander, to send troops from Guanzhong to attack Hanzhong. The lord led an army of 100,000 to Shangyong. Two ways to attack Zhang Lu. Zhang Lu must take care of one and lose the other. "Fu Zhu was the first to propose attacking Zhang Lu, and he had already designed it.
"The lord can write a letter to Liu Zhang and Liu Biao, claiming the focus of this use of troops. First of all, we must dispel Liu Biao's suspicions, so that he can rest assured that he and Yuan Shu will continue to fight. Secondly, let Liu Zhang contain part of Zhang Lu's troops for the main public. The last point is that the lord will be able to crusade against Zhang Lu openly. Jia Xu suggested.
"Lord, Yuan Hao is also a big deal in Luoyang. It is better to let him assist General Huang Zhong to deal with Yuan Shao, so as not to have any special circumstances. Chen Gong thought about it for a while, and there was nothing to add, so he started with the situation in the state.
"What you have said, this king has approved. Zhang Lu actually violated the territory that had the same clan friendship as this king, and he simply didn't take this king seriously. What is the use of keeping such a kingless and fatherless thief? The order went down, and the whole army began to prepare to crusade against Zhang Lu. Liu Yu said with a righteous face.
"Yes!" The three of Chen Gong couldn't hold back a smile, if they want to say that when they are thick-skinned today, there is no one except their lord.
"Actually, this king is not a cruel person, why does this world always ask this king to raise a butcher's knife. Is it so hard to be a good person?
Probably feeling that he had become shameless, Liu Yu lowered his head and couldn't help but say a few words of emotion from the bottom of his heart.
Chen Gong almost fell, and shouted in his heart: Lord, don't be scary! If you are a good person, there are few good people in the world.
The corners of his mouth twitched, would a good person kidnap someone?
Jia Xu's face was also a little unnatural, he had heard of Liu Yuluoyang's name as the number one villain.
Liu raised his head and looked at the three of them, found that their expressions were a little strange, and asked, "What are you doing here?" ”
"It's fine." The three of them said in unison.
