Chapter 30: The Fierce Will Finally Descend
"Fishing in troubled waters, is it telling me not to go north to forcibly fight with Cao Jun, but to wait for the opportunity to exchange the minimum price for the greatest benefit?"
After thinking for a while, Guan Ping muttered.
"Then provoking a war and passing by means of a retreat route, right?"
At this time, Guan Ping's thoughts were like a spring, and he analyzed the original meaning of the last sentence in a moment.
After all, Huang Chengyan offered him advice only to save Jingzhou from the crisis and force his father to cancel the strategic plan to capture Fancheng, rather than really going to capture Xudu and dominate the Central Plains.
Now, the Jingzhou army alone is not enough to resist the comprehensive counterattack of the Cao army, it is conceivable that if Guan Ping really captures Xudu, then Cao Cao will definitely not give up next!
Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if Xu Du is really captured, whether it can be held with the strength of the Jingzhou army alone is a question.
Therefore, Huang Chengyan also considered it properly, not only offered a plan to go north to threaten Xudu, but also had already formulated a way out.
As for what is the way out......... Huang Chengyan didn't say it, this is only about leveling his own planning.
In fact, there is really no way to plan in advance for this thing of retreat, the battle situation is changing rapidly, and unexpected things may happen at any time.
No matter how carefully deployed, it may deviate later.
The reason why Huang Chengyan added the latter sentence was also to warn Guan Ping not to be greedy for cheap, and insisted on staying in the Central Plains with Cao Jun in a bloody battle.
We must wait for the opportunity to move, focus on the overall situation, and evacuate in time!
"It seems that according to the news, my father must have made up his mind to capture Fancheng and fight Cao Jun as a plan this time."
"I have to be included in the process as soon as possible, otherwise this great victory will be taken away by the Jiangdong rats, and there will be no place to cry!"
In fact, when he set out on the expedition, Guan Ping was not unprepared, at least he had already arranged the families of the sergeants and colonels, and an uncontrollable situation was really going to happen.
At that time, the family members will be evacuated to Shuzhong first, so as to avoid the worries of the soldiers!
The family members were bound, which was also the most important factor in the defeat of Guan Yu's army in the original history.
Although he had been prepared, Guan Ping was still worried in his heart.
It must be known that in the history of the garrison public security, Shiren and Mi Fangyuan of Jiangling, due to the problem of insufficient troops, when Jiangdong attacked in a big way, they did not resist and surrendered without a fight!
As for this life, whether they will make such a choice, Guan Ping does not know.
However, he felt that as long as Jiangdong was still attacking, there was a high probability that it would still be.
After all, the country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change.
It's a pity that Shiren and Mi Fang's qualifications and background are also extremely strong, although Guan Ping wants to change generals, he has no authority.
Guan Yu is the main general!
Saying that they are going all out on the Northern Expedition, there is no one in the rear who can take on the great responsibility except them, and they have not made mistakes, and Guan Yu is also powerful in Jingzhou, and it is impossible to turn a blind eye.
Otherwise, when the news reached Shuzhong, what did Liu Bei think, and what would the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty think?
I'm afraid that there will be words such as "Jingzhou is the Yiyantang of the Guan family" at that time.
Therefore, before Shiren, Mi Fang and others have not made a big mistake, they can only be appointed.
This point, even if Guan Ping is familiar with history, it cannot be changed, and the traverser is not omnipotent.
"How should I go north this time, and how should I go to Xudu?"
At this time, Guan Ping frowned and muttered thoughtfully.
Moreover, now that he is going north to threaten Xu Du, he is even more frightened of that dream in his heart.
"I'm going to lead the army north to threaten Xudu, this dream shouldn't be a coincidence, right?"
At this moment, Guan Ping always had this feeling that on the way north, something ominous would happen.
North Shore, Fancheng.
Just when Guan Ping was thinking hard, at this moment, Cao Ren was furious, and his face was extremely gloomy.
"Li Ji, this general ordered you and Niu Jin to welcome Pang De back, not to let you sneer at him."
"It's okay at this time, things have come to this point, I'm afraid that even if Pang Lingming continued to be loyal to my Great Wei before, I'm afraid I don't have this mind at the moment."
Now, Cao Ren's eyes revealed the anger of the president, staring at Li Ji, and there was a kind of resentment that hatred of iron could not become steel.
Just when Cao Ren reprimanded Li Ji, everyone didn't dare to come out, but the full favor from the side was full of thoughts and thoughtful.
After waiting for a long time, seeing Cao Ren reprimanding him, his anger gradually dissipated, and Man Chong stood up and said: "General, depending on the favor, I'm afraid I'm afraid I've fallen for Guan Ping's strategy!" ”
Hearing this, Cao Ren's expression suddenly became solemn, and he asked, "Berning, what do you mean?" ”
When the words fell, the rest of the people in the palace also stared at Manzhong's body to see what he said.
"This is a very unusual thing!"
"General Li Ji said that Guan Ping wanted to release Pang De back as a hidden undercover agent to help the Jingzhou army break through Fancheng."
"However, with such a secret plan, General Li Ji verbally rejected Guan Ping's solicitation, so how could he let you know about it easily?"
"Moreover, General Li Ji, after you overheard, you escaped from the guards unharmed and came back."
"Don't you think this matter is full of suspicions and is extremely strange?"
Hearing this, Li Ji suddenly showed displeasure and retorted loudly: "Manhou, Ji repeats, it is not easy for me to escape back. ”
"The situation of the Han River, I think all the generals know something, and I am very lucky that I can swim across the river bank without being discovered by the Jingzhou patrols all over the river."
"Does the Marquis think this is easy? In other words, if this is really Guan Ping's trick, does he need to be so mobilized? ”
Halfway through his words, Cao Ren glared slightly, waved his hand to interrupt, and then said, "Berning, continue." ”
Hearing this, he bowed his hand and continued to analyze: "It can be seen that Guan Ping's banquet to entertain General Li Ji is just a bureau set up by him, and its purpose is to let General Li Ji overhear Pound's plan to respond to Nei. ”
"Actually, Pang Lingming didn't defect to the Jingzhou Army at all and betrayed the King of Wei!"
After a pause, he thought for a while, and continued: "As for what General Li Ji said about rejuvenating the army and mobilizing the people, this is not difficult to understand. ”
"General Li Ji thinks about it, if Guan Ping, as a prisoner of war, steals the confidential information of our army and escapes, will you order the blockade of the city and the riverbank to arrest him!"
"So, since Guan Ping has already designed to trap you, then he doesn't do enough tricks, General Li Ji, you easily crossed the Han River, won't you be suspicious?"
"Can he hide from my eyes?"
Under the analysis of the seat, Manzhong's words were strong and powerful, reasonable and well-founded, and everyone was convinced when they heard it.
"Berning, that Guan Ping is in such a big circle, so what is his real purpose?"
Hearing this, Cao Ren thought for a moment and couldn't help asking.
"General, naturally, in order to arouse our army's suspicion of Pang De, and then make Pang Lingming completely disappointed in our army, isn't it logical that he came forward to persuade Pang De to submit to obedience?"
"You must know, I know Pang Lingming's temperament, that is a truly loyal person, and he will never easily defect to the Jingzhou army."
"The only way for him to submit is for our army to give up on him, Guan Ping is luring his fame and fortune with profit, and Pang Lingming is brave and brave, so it is naturally difficult to resist his benefits."
The ears of the people listened to the explanation of the full favor, and the generals in the palace also felt reasonable!
It's just that it's too late for Manpet to react at this moment!
However, Le Qi still said in a deep voice: "Manhou, but when you capture Xiangyang City, Pang De has indeed surrendered?" ”
Hearing this, Man Pet chuckled lightly and said lightly: "General Leqi, you are smart, why are you confused?" ”
"With Guan Ping's methods, isn't it simple to make all the prisoners of war think that Pang Lingming has surrendered to him?"
A word by word, full of pets choked and speechless!
………
The night passed, and the morning passed slowly!
Outside the city of Xiangyang
Covered in blood and carrying a red bronze knife, Pound was covered in blood, his eyes were bloodshot, and he slowly strode towards the city.
