Chapter 847: Deliberation

Liu Lan lifted the curtain and entered Kongrong Village, and the two who were talking in a low voice got up almost at the same time, and said in unison: "Deran is back." "The first one is naturally the familiar Kong Rong, and the one next to him is not someone else, it is a talent, tall and capable, and was appointed by Gongsun Zan as the 'Tian Kai' of the Qingzhou Thorn History, the two did not expect to meet again so soon after they separated from Linzi last year, Liu Lan greeted him with a warm smile, bowed his hand, and said: "Tian Envoy Jun is not harmed!" ”

Tian Kai returned the salute and said: "I haven't seen you for many days, and I heard that Deran fought in the Battle of Jizhou, and I really envy it." ”

It wasn't until the two finished talking that Kong Rong, who was smiling on the side, spoke up and asked, "Deran went to investigate the enemy's situation, I don't know what I can gain?" ”

"It's not just the harvest." Liu Lan looked around, there were familiar and reliable people on the left and right, so he said bluntly and said, "But I have a plan." ”

"Really?" Tian Kai was a little excited.

"Sit down and talk." Kong Rong said with a smile.

"Yes, yes!"

Immediately sat down according to the year of the title, Kong Rong and Tian Kai sat in the main and secondary, Liu Lan was facing Tian Kai between Kong Rong's left hand, and only heard him say: "I don't know how Deran intends to break Cao?" The two of us can also help. ”

"If you don't have the help of the two of you, I'm afraid it will be difficult to do a big thing."

"Deran is too polite." Tian Kai patted his chest and said: "Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are allies, this time I came to help Tao Xuzhou in the name of the lord, and I will naturally work together with Deran to break Cao Cao, which can be used to destroy his prestige and repay the evil spirit of being defeated by him in the battle of Jizhou." ”

Liu Lan was thinking more about how to save Xuzhou, and get Qingzhou and even Xuzhou, as for the alliance that Tian Kai said, Liu Lan didn't care, and was silent for a while. Also, when Gongsun Zhanchan drank the dispute between the north and the south, Liu Lan was extremely opposed, and now let him come in too, isn't that cheap Yuan Shu for nothing? The so-called north-south dispute was dominated by Yuan Shu of the Southern Alliance, and Tao Qian and Gongsun Zan were one of the largest alliance forces; The Northern Alliance was headed by Yuan Shao. Take Cao Cao and others as the first to look forward. )

Liu Lan, who was silent for a moment, diverted the topic and said: "I have already investigated the enemy's situation just now, but I didn't expect Cao Cao, who knew the soldiers, to make such a big mistake, and this moment is the best time for me to break the arrogant Cao Cao." ”

"Mistakes? Arrogant? The two of them were completely unaware of what was going on, so they looked at him suspiciously, asked, and said, "Where did this come from?" Please also ask Deran for advice. ”

Liu Lan did not hide it, and said truthfully: "Cao Cao did not attack the two at the beginning of the war because of his arrogance, but because the two did not take the initiative to attack. and put the two envoys in their eyes and regarded them as opponents! ”

Glimpsing the change in the faces of the two, Liu Lan achieved the purpose of the method, and changed his words: "But his natural character dictates it, but he doesn't dare not really guard against the two of them, so he will send Yu Ban and Xiahou to set up two camps, which are horns for each other, and lure the two to attack." ”

"I see!"

Tian Kai's expression was gloomy. smiled bitterly in his heart, if Liu Lan came early. Half a month ago, he could fail miserably, regretting in his heart, and thinking about the past, it was no different from what he said, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Such a clumsy plan." I didn't even see it. ”

"What's wrong, Tian Yuanjun?" Liu Lan listened to what he said and asked.

Tian Kai looked at Kong Rong with a red face, and motioned to him, Kong Rong said: "This Cao Cao is also hateful." He smiled bitterly and said: "It's not a secret to Deran, Tian Thorn Shi has been defeated for a while. It is exactly what Deran said. ”

Tian Kai on the side smiled embarrassedly and said, "If you didn't know that Deran came today, you would have thought that Deran had experienced this matter." ”

After Liu Lan heard what the two of them said, he glanced at Xu Shu, laughed out loud, and said, "Okay, good, great." ”

Suddenly found that Tian Kai's expression was not depressed, and explained: "There are impermanent generals in the world, Tian Yuanjun doesn't have to mind, since Yuanjun has fought with Cao's army, he naturally knows how they help each other, and we can find fighters from it to annihilate Cao Cao's troops." ”

Although Tian Kai knew that Liu Lan didn't mean to peep at him or ridicule him, but you asked him to tell the details of the defeat, how did such an embarrassing thing make him speak, his face turned red for a while, but he didn't even say a word, and finally Kong Rong told the details of the day's situation.

Liu Lan listened to him and said, "I want to act like this." He said what he thought to the two of them, and said: "Since Cao Cao divided his troops into horns, then we only need to send a large army to attack one place, and then send a small force to involve the enemy who comes to help, at that time, as long as we can take down a camp, and then reflexively besiege the enemy who comes to help, so that we will be able to annihilate the enemy at the north gate." He looked at the three of them with confidence and said, "What do the three of you think of this?" ”

"It's a brilliant plan."

Kong Rong is a scribe, how can he know how to march and fight, but Xu Shu on the side does, and after pondering for a while, he pondered for a while before he considered and said: "If this is the case, although the enemy at the north gate can be eliminated, it will not help the war." ”

"Why?" Liu Lan said that when he came to his mouth, Kong Rong asked first.

"There are three inaccuracies with this plan, one is that if our army cannot capture a camp in a short time, and the army that comes to help is unsuccessful, then our army will be attacked on both sides, so what can we do?"

Xu Shu signaled everyone not to speak first, let him finish, and said: "Second, even if our army can take one of the camps, it will be difficult to fight another camp, and Cao Cao's main force is at the west gate, if our army rashly attacks, if there is a stalemate or even the war is unfavorable, Cao Cao will not send troops to come, but once Cao's army loses, Cao Cao will definitely come to the rescue with the main force, and our army will not be in danger at that time!" And the lord often said that Cao Cao would use troops, so Cao Cao would not care whether the war was beneficial or not, and would definitely send reinforcements to come! ”

Kong Rong and Tian Kai glanced at each other, in a cold sweat, but Xu Shu had not yet said the most critical third point, so he continued: "Third, even if what Yuan Zhi said is too worried, but the lord and the two envoys will really annihilate the Cao army outside the north gate, and Cao Cao will know that our army is strong, and he will definitely bring a large army to encircle and suppress, and then the lord and the two envoys will have a chance of winning?" ”

"This ......"

The three of them were speechless, and after a long time, Xu Shu had to say, "What is the situation in Xuzhou City at this time, whether there is a counterattack or not is unknown, if we wait for Xuzhou to attack it back and forth, it may not be impossible to win, but if Xuzhou has no power to fight, is it not to put tens of thousands of soldiers in danger?" In the end, he persuaded him: "I hope the lord will think twice." ”

"If it weren't for Yuan Zhi, I would have almost missed a big thing."

Liu Lan was secretly glad in his heart, looked at Xu Shu and said, "I don't know if Yuan Zhi has a clever plan?" ”

"The lord and the two envoys only need to do this." Xu Shu was also not polite, and said what he thought of in his heart, and said: "Today's plan needs to be clear about the remaining strength and grain and grass in Xuzhou City, and only in this way can we be invincible." ”

Liu Lan nodded frequently, while the other two were ecstatic in their hearts, their faces were full of excitement, fortunately Liu Lan and his military Xu Shu came, otherwise this battle would not be to save Xuzhou, even if they were tens of thousands of families, they would probably be ruined.

Xu Shu's macro arguments completely convinced Tian Kai, and the secret way is that Ganluo's talent is nothing more than Erer in front of this person, right?

Liu Lan got up and said, "As Yuan Zhi said, what should I do if I enter Xuzhou City?" Although he also had ideas in his heart, he wanted to know if his thoughts were the same as Xu Shu's.

Xu Shu looked at Liu Lan and the three of them and said, "If there are many soldiers in Xuzhou at that time; If Cao Cao dares to come to the rescue, as long as the troops of Xuzhou are exhausted, Cao Cao will be defeated.

If the soldiers of Xuzhou are second; Then our army and Xuzhou City thought that the horns cooperated with each other, and they could protect Xuzhou without losing, but once the soldiers of Xuzhou did not even have the power to protect themselves, they could not ...... it."

And how could the three of them not understand what he meant by his blank afterglow, it was clear that he could keep the rules, and he couldn't keep the city and abandon it.

The three of them had their own calculations in their hearts, but they still discussed it and exchanged opinions with each other, and finally Liu Lan made a decision, saying: "According to what Yuan Zhi said, it's just that Xuzhou City has been blocked, but I don't know how to enter the law?" ”

"It's also simple, just surround the point and send reinforcements."

"Reinforcements?"

Liu Lan thought about it carefully in his heart, and he had an epiphany, since the camp that he didn't know whether it was Xiahou Yuan or Xiahou Yuan and Yu Ban were each other's horns, just like when Tian Kai went to attack Yu Ban, he didn't want Xiahou (Yuanyuan) to attack from behind, so that the reinforcements from the encirclement point were about to come out.

At that time, the lord took advantage of the emptiness of the village to aid the enemy, and took the opportunity to break away from the blockade and go to the city of Xuzhou, so that as long as there is communication between the city and the outside of the city, then Cao Cao will not be worried.

Xu Shu looked at Liu Lan and said, "Lord, I just don't know who went to Xuzhou City?" ”

"I'll go there myself." Liu Lan cut the railway.

"If so, then so."

Xu Shu thought about it in his heart again, and said after there were no loopholes: "Since the lord is going, the generals who will be sent to help will need Tian Yu and General Zilong to fight." ”

Saying that, he looked at Liu Lan and the others: "Tian Tingshi and Kong Jun Shouke can lead their headquarters to attack a camp, and when reinforcements come to the rescue, General Tian Yu and General Zilong can lead the cavalry to stop it." At this time, although the rescue camp has heavy troops, it will not dare to go out, and the lord is just good to lead the troops to rush through the weak block, so that the city of Xuzhou can be entered. ”

"It's just that there can't be too many soldiers who enter the city with me, just pick some elites."

Liu Lan didn't want to find that there were no soldiers in Xuzhou City when he entered the city, but let his less than 20,000 warriors be sent to death as soldiers defending the city.

Although Liu Lan knew that in history, this battle was a letter from 'Liu Bei' or Lu Bu's sneak attack on Yanzhou to force Cao Cao to retreat, but at this time, Liu Bei didn't know where to go, let alone when his 'Lu fellow' attacked Cao Cao, so he had to make more plans. (To be continued.) )
