Who is Li Ye? When he joined Yuan Yao and chose Yuan Yao as the lord, he was just a young and immature teenager. But following Yuan Yao for many years, Li Ye has grown from a young boy to the sharpest knife in Yuan Yao's hand today.

For so many years, Li Ye has not forgotten his hatred for Cao Cao, and Yuan Yao has not forgotten what Li Ye thinks in his heart. But many years have passed, and the pair of monarchs and ministers have already grown a lot, although Li Ye wants to dismantle Cao Cao into eight pieces, but for the sake of Yuan Yao's great cause, Li Ye can also temporarily give up his revenge on Cao Cao, because he knows very well that when the time comes, Yuan Yao will never stop him.

Pang Tong didn't know what Li Ye was thinking, but seeing that Li Ye's face did not change, Pang Tong also continued.

"There are many princes in the world, with this Liu Bei's territory being the most narrow, it is difficult for Youzhou in the north and Xuzhou in the south to respond in time, as long as we can attack quickly, there is not much resistance we need to face."

Looking at Pang Tong's analysis, Li Ye, who had not spoken all this time, suddenly interjected: "Shiyuan, you think very well, but have you ever thought about it, that is, Liu Bei is now considered by many people to be orthodox in the world, and if you make a move against him at this time, aren't you afraid of infamy for the king?" ”

In the face of Li Ye's questioning, Pang Tong was not surprised, after all, if no one questioned his plan, it would be a big problem.

"The king, it is precisely because of this that he wants to make a move on Liu Bei. The kings of the world, Liu Bei can be said to have inherited the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty, if Liu Bei does not die, he wants to change the dynasty, otherwise it will be difficult to ascend to the sky, only when Liu Bei is dead, we can start our fists and feet and fight for the world. Liu Bei will not die for a day, in the eyes of many people in the world, we are still Han courtiers, only when Liu Bei dies, most people in the world will think that we are the real king. ”

Pang Tong's analysis was reasonable, and after pondering for a while, Yuan Yao and Li Ye also felt that what Pang Tong said was very reasonable. The continuation of the Han Dynasty for 400 years, although now the princes are fighting chaotically and the seven kings are standing side by side, but in the hearts of those ignorant people, the world is still the world of the Han Dynasty, and if you want to replace the Han Dynasty, you must cut off all the remnants of the Han Dynasty.

Liu Bei, King of Han, Liu Zhang, King of Shu.

As the two princes of the Han family, among the careerists in the world, these two must be solved, and the others can be put behind, but Liu Bei and Liu Zhang must be solved first.

Yuan Yao looked at the several small flags representing Liu Bei's forces on the sand table at this moment, which were planted in Youzhou, Jizhou, Xuzhou and Qingzhou.

"Shiyuan, Shi'an, then where are we going to attack from, Jizhou or Xuzhou?"

Youzhou is impossible, it does not border Yuan Yao's territory, and if you attack Qingzhou, it is easy to fall into a heavy siege.

"Xuzhou!"

Pang Tong pointed the wooden stick in his hand and pointed to the direction of Xuzhou: "In the land of Xuzhou, we occupy three counties, and Liu Bei occupies two counties, and many years of operation have made many people in Xuzhou accept our governance. ”

"Shiyuan, the idea is very good, but I'm afraid this Xuzhou is not easy to fight, Liu Bei can transfer troops from Qingzhou at any time to support, at that time, the situation is not in our favor."

Pang Tong smiled, since he dared to say such a plan, he also took into account some things that would happen: "So the king, Weichen suggested that this Liu Bei is not our family, we should contact several other princes to attack Liu Bei together." ”

"Which way?" Yuan Yao nodded, this alliance is indeed a good choice, but which side to join forces with needs to be considered more. The current seven kings of the world, none of them is simple, if one chooses carelessly, it will be useless and the matter will be small, and it will be troublesome to be bitten back.

Pang Tong's wooden stick in his hand pointed to a few places again, and said: "The first way, Yuan Tan, the king of Yan and the king of Yan are cousins, and during this time, the power of the king of Yan has been forced by Liu Bei, once the king invites him to send troops together, let him attack Jicheng and other places in Youzhou, contain and attract part of Liu Bei's forces, we are attacking Xuzhou, King Yan must agree, for our side, we can contain part of Liu Bei's forces in Youzhou, so that we can face less pressure, for King Yan, we can concentrate on dealing with the Han army in Youzhou and recapture Youzhou. ”

"The second way, Zhao Wang Lu Bu. When Lu Bu became king last year, he confronted Liu Bei in Jizhou, although the two sides did not fight in the end, but with Lu Bu's character, if we send an envoy to lobby him, it is not a big problem. ”

Yuan Tan attacked Youzhou, Lu Bu attacked Jizhou, and he attacked Xuzhou.

Three-way army, no matter how strong Liu Bei is, it is difficult to resist, even if Liu Bei has many generals, in the face of such a lineup, Yuan Yao is also confident to defeat, of course, the premise is to be able to convince Yuan Tan and Lu Bu.

Li Ye looked at the sand table and said: "King, although this plan is good, there is still a problem that needs to be solved, that is, Yanzhou, Yanzhou is the territory of Cao Cao, the king of Qin, and it is also Cao Cao's base camp. We moved, and it was hard to guarantee that this Cao Cao would not make any changes. ”

Yuan Yao was not worried when he heard this, looked at Li Ye, and asked, "Shi'an, since you mentioned it, you must have a countermeasure." ”

Li Ye nodded and said to Yuan Yao: "King, Yanzhou borders Jizhou and Qingzhou, and it is also possible to attack Liu Bei's territory, we can join forces with Cao Cao and let Cao Cao also send troops to deal with Liu Bei." ”

Yuan Yao shook his head when he heard this, and said: "Shi'an, it's not so simple, Cao Cao's focus is now in the west, in the land of Guanzhong, this Liu Bei's territory is a little far away from Cao Cao, even if he takes it, he can't hold it, at this time, it is basically impossible to attract Cao Cao to attack Liu Bei." ”

Li Ye also frowned a little when he heard this, and for a while, he couldn't think of any good way to come out.

Yuan Yao's eyes swept over the sand table at this moment, looked at the place in Yanzhou, and said softly: "Don't worry, even if there is no Cao Cao, we can take down Lu Bu, as for Cao Cao wants to make trouble." It's nothing more than two directions, one merging the state and the other Yuzhou, either to me or to Lu Bu, just pay attention to it in advance. ”

Moreover, Cao Cao was beaten by Liu Bei as a traitor to the party, at this time, I don't believe that Cao Cao will support Liu Bei, Cao Mengde is not a broad-minded person, it would be good if he didn't fall into the ground.

After thinking for a while, Yuan Yao sat upright and began to command.

"Shi'an, Heiyue Tower immediately moved, probed the information well, and reduced the loss as much as possible, Shiyuan, you go and call Zang Hong to me."
