Chapter 432: Making a Great Strategy (I)
"Husband, eat quickly. This is a meal that Sister Hoy and I cooked by ourselves, so let's try it to your liking? ”
Cai Yan whispered softly in Wen Han's ear, Wen Han hadn't seen Cai Yan for nearly a year, and his wife, who missed him every day, looked particularly beautiful at this time.
"Yan'er has you, coarse tea and light rice are also the best delicacy."
Wen Han whispered in Cai Yan's ear, and then began to move. Zhou Long and Lin saw Wen Han move, and after the two husbands and wives looked at each other and smiled, they also began to eat.
As for Zhao Yun and Zhou Cang, because of their identities, they should not be able to eat at the same table with Wen Han according to etiquette. But at the strong request of Zhou Long and Cai Yan, they no longer pushed. Zhou Yuhan saw that Zhao Yun was a little restrained, so he sandwiched a piece of chicken to Zhao Yun. provoked the horse tamer to stare at him, saying that Zhou Yuhan was eccentric. The horse trainer is Wen Han's nominal grandfather, and if you count it by seniority, the seniority is frighteningly high. And Zhou Yuhan is empathetic and has always been favored by horse tamers. Zhou Yuhan was said by the horse trainer, and his face suddenly turned red like a tempting apple. Zhao Yun also blushed, looking at a loss for a while, like a little boy who had just fallen in love.
This made everyone at the dinner table laugh incessantly.
Sometimes a simple meal can comfort a tired, angry, and messy mind. And a meal with your family can make you feel extremely happy.
At this moment, Wen Han no longer has any negative emotions in his heart, he is enjoying the happy moment in front of him.
An hour later, after the horse trainer and the three old men Tong Yuan and Zuo Ci had eaten their fills, they patted their butts and left. As for Zhao Yun and Zhou Yuhan, they both left at some point, and the two of them were in love with each other, and they both had a good impression of each other, and Zhou Long and Wen Han also intended to promote this pair of golden boys and girls, and they were also happy. As for Cai Yan, Diao Chan and Lin, they went to take care of Guan Yu together.
So at this time, in the main hall, only Wen Han, Zhou Long, and Zhou Cang were left. Wen Han calmed down, closed his eyes for a while, and then asked about the battle situation in Anyi, and Zhou Long and Zhou Cang immediately told Anyi about the battle situation one by one.
"Humph! Lu Fengxian was seriously injured, and there were less than 4,000 remnants around him, if he really chose to withdraw from Juan County and Pingyin, he would definitely die! ”
Wen Han listened, smiled coldly, and shouted heavily. Zhou Long and Zhou Cang's faces were stunned, and they looked at each other, neither of them knew why Wen Han said this.
Wen Han saw that Zhou Long and Zhou Cang looked suspicious, so he explained.
"Big brother, Dinggong, you can know that six days ago, Zhicai and the fourth brother had laid a heavy ambush in Juan County and Pingyin!!"
"Ah~! If this is the case, Lu Bu is already at the end of the strong crossbow, and his command is full of defeated remnants, and he has no morale to fight. ”
"There must be no place to die! Hahahaha! The lord and the military advisor are really talented, Lu Fengxian didn't think he could do anything, and he dared to come to attack Hedong, but he didn't know that he had brought himself into the land of death! ”
Zhou Cang laughed loudly, as if he had seen the scene of Lu Bu being extinguished by ten thousand arrows and rolling stones. And Wen Han also narrowed his eyes, and a sneer that made his scalp tingle.
But did things really turn out as Wenhan expected?
A few days later, Zhang Liao and a group of remnants of the army protected Lu Bu, who was still fainting after being seriously injured, and kept secret all the way, rushing overnight, originally wanting to rush to Yanshi, but on the way, he was discovered by the Hedong soldiers and horses of the surrounding cities and counties. Unexpectedly, Zhang Liao divided two armies of soldiers and horses, and used one as a bait to lure them away, and then Zhang Liao finally met with the soldiers and horses of Chen Palace in Changling.
Chen Gong saw that the soldiers who came back were all uneven in armor, and all of them knew that the capture of Anyi must have failed. Chen Gong hurriedly led the army down to the city gate to greet him, and when he saw Lu Bu fainting, he was immediately startled. His lord, but Lu Fengxian, who is unparalleled in the world, can calmly fight his way out of the encirclement even in the face of thousands of troops. This Lu Bu and Zhang Liao were in Anyi, what kind of unexpected situation did they encounter that made Lu Bu suffer such a serious injury.
After Chen Gong placed Lu Bu in place, he hurriedly called all the doctors in the city to treat him, and when Chen Gong heard from these doctors that Lu Bu was fine, he was relieved and asked Zhang Liao about the battle situation in Anyi. Zhang Liao told the battle situation of Anyi in detail, Chen Gong listened attentively, and later felt a little pity after hearing that the suspicious plan was broken. Zhang Liao's strategy was not wrong, but it was slightly unstable, and it did not take into account that those disguised people were not on the battlefield and were easy to show their feet.
Moreover, before deciding to attack Hedong, Chen Gong did all the information, knowing that in Anyi City, there was only Guan Yu who could be used, and Zhou Long was the key to breaking through Anyi City. That's why Lu Bu and Zhang Liao were separated from each other to attack at the same time. But they didn't expect that Tong Yuan, Zuo Ci, and the horse tamers would appear in Anyi City. If the three of them weren't there, maybe Zhang Liao would have succeeded a long time ago.
Plans can't keep up with the changes. Chen Gong sighed helplessly.
"Eh, right now, we can't stay in the land east of the river for long. Tonight, I immediately sent General Cheng to inform General Song of Yanshi and lead the troops to Changling. By the time the two armies are combined, the lord's injuries should have improved, and we will withdraw from Hedong at that time. General Zhang, you must be exhausted from fighting and fleeing for days, so you can rest at ease and rest for a few days. ”
"In this way, everything depends on the military advisor."
At this time, Zhang Liao's face was terrifyingly pale, and his body was shaky, as if he was weak. Chen Gong felt sad when he saw it, and at the same time, he was also moved by Zhang Liao's loyalty to Lu Bu, there are very few iron-blooded tough guys who are so loyal in this troubled era.
After Song Xian received the order from Chen Gong, he did not dare to hesitate at all, and immediately led 8,000 infantry to Changling, and joined forces with Changling's soldiers and horses, which was already five days later. At this time, the Hedong Army in the area around Yanshi and Changling found out that Yanshi and Changling had been lost, and hurriedly reported to Wenhan in Anyi. However, when Wen Han received the report, Wen Han knew that Anyi's army would not be able to catch up, and by the time he led his troops to Yanshi and Changling, Lu Bu had already fled.
"Lu Fengxian had the courage and no strategy, and it was impossible to think of such a perfect retreat arrangement. There must be a master around him to guide him, and this master is expected to set up a net in Juan County and Pingyin, and all of them will deliberately send two troops and horses to attack Yanshi and Changling before coming, in order to allow Lu Bu and Zhang Liao to evacuate safely!! Damn!! Who the hell is this master!! ”
Wen Han's eyes were full of flames, as if the meat in his mouth had flown away, and he was angry with unwillingness.
"Third brother, I have heard that this Lu Fengxian was surrounded by Zhang Jifan's soldiers and horses many times a year ago, and Shangluo was almost lost. Later, after Lu Bubai had a strategist who seemed to be called Chen Gong as his military advisor, he not only relieved the siege of Shangluo City, but later did not know what strategy he used, and defeated Zhang Ji and Fan Chou's soldiers and horses, and exterminated nearly 20,000 of their soldiers. From this point of view, that master must be this Chen Gong, this person has a natural talent, and he should not be underestimated. ”
"Chen Gong? Chen Gongtai!! ”
Wen Han slapped his forehead heavily, blaming himself for forgetting the number one person in Chen Gong. Although Wen Han knew that Lu Bu and Chen Gong would meet sooner or later, because the historical trajectory at this time had undergone a lot of changes. Wen Han also didn't know when Chen Gong would become Lu Bu's military advisor. And Wen Han has been focusing all his thoughts on merging states in recent years, and how can he have half of his spare energy to take care of Lu Bu.
"That's it. It seems that this Lu Fengxian should not be killed. And with Chen Gongtai by his side, he can't act rashly before Zhicai's future. Big brother, you immediately send two herald troops to inform Zhicai and the fourth brother of Juan County and Pingyin, tell them that Lu Bu has escaped from Yanshi or Changling, and let them lead the army to rush back to Anyi. ”
"Subordinates take orders!"
After Zhou Long stood up and gave the order, he quickly walked out to make arrangements. Wen Han's eyes kept narrowing, rubbing his aching temples with one hand, and he hesitated in his heart. He wanted to take advantage of the victory to pursue and lead the army to attack Shangluo, but the state had just been stabilized for less than a year, and after the implementation of Tuntian, it had not yet reached the autumn of the harvest, and this was a critical moment. However, if you don't take advantage of Lu Bu's serious injury at this time, when the morale of his soldiers and horses is tired and low, wave the army to attack, and when Lu Bu recovers from his injuries, the soldiers and horses repeat their morale and then attack, it will undoubtedly be difficult. Especially at this time, Lu Bu already has Chen Gongtai by his side, a super strategist.
Wen Han was uncertain, so he could only wait for Xi Long to come back and then discuss. Wen Han thought about it and calmed down and quietly waited for Xi Long's return.
Time flies, and soon the three days have passed. As soon as Xi Long returned to Anyi, Wen Han was already waiting at the city gate, and the moment he saw Xi Long, Wen Han's originally worried heart was truly stable. Xi Long looked at Wen Han for a while, as if he was seeing through all of Wen Han's thoughts, and then smiled at Wen Han.
"It seems that my lord, I must have been thinking about me day and night these days, and I hardly thought about tea and dinner."
Xi Long's joke made Wen Han's tense face also float a smile, Wen Han shook his head helplessly, and cast another look at Xi Long, indicating that Xi Long had something urgent to discuss with him. Xi Long's face tightened, and he rushed back to the county palace in Anyi with Wen Han.
"Lord, it is not appropriate to use troops to attack Lu Bu at this time. Even if the lord is really revenged, he will wait for a few months later, and after the harvest is completed and everything is settled, he will send troops to attack. ”
Not long after Wen Han sat down, Xi Long opened his mouth to admonish first. Wen Han frowned, Lu Bu repeatedly touched his scales, and Wen Han had already had a murderous intention against him.
Xi Long seemed to understand Wen Han's thoughts, and then said.
"I also hope that the lord will focus on the overall situation. The lord has just annexed the state, and the state is not like Hedong, which has only one county, and the area of the place is eight times that of Hedong, and it is several times more difficult to manage than Hedong. Although Zhang Hong and Han Song are currently in charge of the state, even if the two of them have intelligence, they will not be able to handle all the big and small trivial matters in the state. However, fortunately, the wealthy families of the annexed states have almost moved away, and it is not too difficult to merge the states in a stable manner. At present, the lord needs to gather a large number of internal affairs talents to assist Zhang Hong and Han Song in managing and merging the state. Only when the interior is comforted can the army be sent out to fight again.
And the lord also needs to pay attention to the northern giant Yuan Benchu. Yuan Benchu had already won Ji and Qing Erzhou, but he was afraid that Youzhou would soon fall into his hands. At that time, Yuan Benchu sat on the land of three states and had a huge power, and his eyes would definitely be on the two states of Merge and Yan in the next step. Compared to Yuan Benchu, Lu Bu is just a lost dog with sharp claws, and Yuan Benchu is a real man-eating beast. If the lord does not stabilize the state first, if he really starts a war with Yuan Benchu at that time, I am afraid..."
Xi Long's unfinished words, it goes without saying, Wen Han's expression suddenly became solemn, thinking carefully about Xi Long's words, and then thinking that Xi Long had mentioned Yanzhou, he unconsciously remembered his best friend.
"Zhicai, what do you mean, you want me to unite with Meng De and fight Yuan Benchu together?!"
Xi Long groaned for a while, then quickly shook his head.
"My lord, you misunderstood what I meant."
"Huh? Do you think that Meng De and I are not Yuan Benchu's opponents? ”
Xi Long's face was extremely solemn, and he shook his head again.
