Chapter 64: Conspiracy to Dingqing
。。。
"There is still a chance, things are not too bad, the problem of the Yellow Turban is only that some people in power do not want to defect to Xuande Gong, the vast majority of the Yellow Turban is estimated to be kept in the dark, as long as they know the truth, the problem will be solved", Liu Yi breathed a sigh of relief, as long as the Yellow Turban does not resist Liu Bei, otherwise there is really no way at all.
"It's true that the situation is not as bad as imagined, and I think this is also an opportunity for us to prepare for the annexation of the Yellow Turban in one fell swoop", Xi Zhicai's eyes sparkled, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he said with a smile.
The number of Yellow Turbans is nearly 300,000, which is a headache, and they have always wanted to attract Yellow Turbans to come, strengthen themselves, develop rapidly, and annex Yellow Turbans in one fell swoop, but they have never considered the internal problems of Yellow Turbans.
"Zhicai, what do you have any good ideas, let's discuss it and see if it's feasible", Liu Yi looked at Xi Zhicai cooperatively, and motioned for him to continue.
"This is indeed an opportunity, let us justifiably plant a mole in the Yellow Turban, aren't they rumored that we killed the Yellow Turban, then send the army to send some of them back, so that all the Yellow Turbans know that we did not kill the Yellow Turbans, and when those Yellow Turbans who are full and clothed here go back, they will definitely miss their life in Chengyang, and the Yellow Turbans will want to come to Chengyang even more", Xi Zhicai got up and paced in the hall with his hands, saying as he walked.
Liu Yi also nodded, it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift, the yellow scarves sent back will definitely bring a large number of people who will join them, there is no doubt about it.
"When the Yellow Turban is returned, a Yellow Turban general is secretly sent back, the number of people sent back is limited after all, not everyone will believe them, it is impossible for everyone to follow, it will always be divided into several factions, and the Yellow Turban General who secretly sent back will stand in the position of not defecting to Xuande Gong, so it is easy to insert a high-level traitor, and the direction of the war can also be controlled by us", Xi Zhicai returned to his seat after confidently speaking.
"Zhicai's arrangement is indeed very reasonable, the Yellow Turban General, General Guan Hai is not, compared to the second brother, I also agree", Liu Yi heard that he needed to let the generals sneak in, and the first thing he thought of was Guan Hai, he was a Qu Shuai in the Yellow Turban, many people knew him, and no one spread it when Guan Hai was collected, so it was very suitable for him to be a traitor.
"I have no opinion, just let Guan Hai go, he should be the most suitable", Guan Hai is now his subordinate, Guan Yu opened his mouth to agree, he also thinks that Guan Hai is very suitable, he must be popular in the yellow scarf, he will not be left out and can be mixed into the decision-making circle, and he will be angry with his brothers, since he understands how stable his life in Chengyang is, he will definitely think about his brothers, after all, the opportunity is rare, if you miss this time, maybe how many people will die in the yellow scarf, there are these factors in Guan Hai will fully cooperate with the traitor.
"After arranging Guan Hai into the high-level of the Yellow Turban, there is also a plan in the future, the high-level of the Yellow Turban has our people, and Qingzhou is in the bag", Jian Yong listened to the discussion of Xi Zhicai and Liu Yi's ideas, and admired their talents, although Jian Yong was not good at planning wars, he could also understand that these strategies could determine the direction of a war.
"After General Guan Hai enters the Yellow Turban, don't let him act for the time being, some of the Yellow Turbans will definitely split out and join Xuande Gong, take this as a signal, delay it for a month, and then start to act, then we should have the strength to fight", Liu Yi thought and said, after arranging for Guan Hai to go in, the news will be broken, and it is impossible for them to blatantly pass the news to Guan Hai and tell him when to act, so the possibility of exposure is very great, and it will be arranged just one month after the Yellow Turban defects to Liu Bei, when they will eat the next wave of Yellow Turbans, the expansion of troops, and the Yellow Turbans are at their weakest.
"Indeed, we can only agree on the time of action in advance, the Yellow Turban can take refuge in us a month later, but there is another point, General Guan Hai's role is more than that, even if we accept the Yellow Turban, we can't start a full-scale war with the Yellow Turban, the number of people is still at a disadvantage, the base of the Yellow Turban is too large, we can let General Guan Hai call those Qu Shuai to besiege Beihai and grab food, when the time comes, the Yellow Turban will not be able to all be dispatched, and the old, young, sick and disabled Yellow Turbans will definitely be left behind, and some young and strong Yellow Turbans will besiege Beihai, In that way, we will face a part of the strength again, and when the time comes, after defeating the Yellow Turbans in the first battle of Beihai, we will chase them to Qingzhou, and run all the way, and those who fall behind will be directly captured, and those who survive in the end will be formed into an army, killing two birds with one stone, and not delaying our development", Xi Zhicai added with a smile, and even took into account the selection of young people from it after defeating the Yellow Turban.
"Zhicai is clever, a good way, who can stop the defeated army, who can stop who will die when the time comes, we can only run together, if we are ready, we will definitely be able to hold it all the way, and the yellow scarf will definitely be the strongest when the time comes", Liu Yi slapped his thigh and said with a smile, watching Xi Zhicai's eyes also have a little more admiration, Xi Zhicai has not shown too much military talent, Liu Yi doubts whether there is a problem with history, it seems that Xi Zhicai can't be pulled over to do government affairs casually in the future, Otherwise, his brain will not be bright, just let him specialize in the military, and when he wins the Yellow Turban and Qingzhou stabilizes, there will definitely be most of the talents to defect, the lord of a state in the real sense, no matter how bad the background is, Liu Bei can also enter the eyes of the people in the world, not to mention that at this time, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao have not yet developed, Liu Bei awakened the Ziwei Emperor Star, and the wind and clouds pacified Qingzhou, a proper emperor.
"Then settle down like this", Xi Zhicai said with a smile, he also realized that the position he should be in is not to sit in the government affairs hall and bury his head in dealing with government affairs, those things don't need so many people, just have Liu Yi to control it, for the development of the city, Liu Yi is much better than him, military strategy is what he is good at, but it is still early, all the princes have not yet entered the war stage, they are all developing peacefully, and when the war is later, Xi Zhicai decided to completely put down government affairs and concentrate on being a military advisor with the army and engaging in war strategy.
After the discussion, dinner was also ready, Liu Yi instructed his subordinates to send some to Cai Wenji, and began to eat, a big stone fell to the ground in his heart, everyone ate very fragrantly, and discussed it again after the meal, and when they deal with government affairs tomorrow, tell Liu Bei what they did and how to deal with it.
