Chapter 1950: Liu Bei's dependence
Chapter 1950: Liu Bei's Reliance (Page 1/1)
And Gao Shun took the time to look at the battle on the Fu Pass, his brows furrowed, at the beginning, Li Dang led the soldiers of the trapped camp and the Qiang soldiers, and achieved a lot of advantages in the Fu Pass, and after the arrival of the enemy's reinforcements, he was suppressed to death, and he even saw his own army suffering heavy losses on the battlefield.
"The enemy army has such a number of elite foot soldiers?" Gao Shun muttered, Liu Bei has always shown that his strength in front of the princes is weak, and they are often on the weak side when facing wars, and after Liu Bei's efforts over the years, the improvement of the combat effectiveness of the officers and men in the army is obvious.
If Liu Bei is given some more time, it will be even more difficult to break through Yizhou.
Although Yizhou is only a state, it is extremely rich in the Han Dynasty, which is also the main reason why the princes want to get Yizhou, there are many people in Yizhou, the treasury is full, and when Liu Bei got Yizhou from Liu Zhang's hands, it did not make Yizhou have too much turmoil, which is also the source of confidence that Liu Bei can confront the princes only by virtue of the land of Yizhou.
Especially after Liu Bei seized Ba County, it made Liu Bei's confidence unprecedentedly high, and the capture of Ba County meant cutting off Lu Bu's road from Ba County to attack Yizhou by water, as long as Hanzhong was controlled in his hands, Lu Bu's forces could gradually withdraw from Yizhou, which was also what Liu Bei was eager to see, but in the face of Lu Bu's strong strength, the pride of the Yizhou army was gradually defeated.
Even if Liu Bei didn't want to admit this, there was no way, and now Yizhou could mobilize fewer and fewer troops, if he couldn't stop the enemy's attack before Chengdu City, it was very likely to attract the shaking of the Yizhou family.
In the face of an absolutely strong enemy, the family will not unswervingly support you to the end because you are the monarch, they will stand on the side of the strong, even if Lu Bu will bring endless damage to the family, compared to the damage in the future, they don't want to be defeated so quickly.
Of course, the current war has not been carried out to make the family completely desperate, the Yizhou army still has a chance, as long as the enemy army is driven out of Yizhou, the interests of the family will be preserved, although this goal seems a little far away, but the family desperately wants to see.
The stronger the means shown by Liu Bei, the more beneficial it is for the family, and the family in Yizhou is now supportive of Liu Bei, otherwise the family will not be so willing to hand over the private soldiers in their hands after getting Zhuge Liang's order, you must know that when Liu Zhang was in charge of Yizhou, he did not let the family make such a concession.
And Liu Bei entered Yizhou for a short time, but he was able to win the support of the family, mainly because the family saw hope from Liu Bei and saw a hope that the army under Lu Bu could be driven out of Yizhou.
Their goal was simple, not to defeat the enemy army, but to drive LΓΌ Bu out of Yizhou, just to make the family satisfied.
This wish is not what Liu Bei wants to get the most, the most dangerous level in Yizhou has been occupied by the army under Lu Bu, and he also knows that it is very difficult to drive the enemy army out of Yizhou, unless the Yizhou army can show far extraordinary combat effectiveness in the next battle.
The battle of Fuguan is an opportunity for Liu Bei to show the Yizhou family and Lu Bu the strong side of the Yizhou army, and he wants to use the strong combat effectiveness of the army to reassure the family, so that even if the army retreats to Mianzhu, the family can continue to stand on his side and continue to support the battle between him and Lu Bu, and the support of the family is very important in Liu Bei's view.
For the family of Yizhou, Liu Bei has always been an outsider, what they value is Liu Bei's means and the strength he shows, if he wants to preserve the interests in his hands in the troubled times, the most important thing is strong strength, which has been well reflected among the families in Jizhou.
Jizhou is also one of the richest states in the Han Dynasty, and the heritage of the family is undoubted, but Yuan Shao's defeat on the battlefield in Jizhou made the family in Jizhou pay a heavy price, and in the face of the strong Lu Bu, they had to make concessions, in order to let the family be preserved.
The Yizhou family didn't want to follow the path of the Jizhou family, they could only resist, even if the enemy army was strong, they had to fight until the end.
On the Fuguan, Liu Bei successively dispatched elite heavy armor soldiers and white-eared elite soldiers, just to make Lu Bu realize that if he wants to capture Yizhou, he will have to pay a heavy price, but whether Liu Bei's goal can be achieved remains to be discussed, the Yizhou army did show a strong side on the Fuguan, but in terms of combat effectiveness, the army under Lu Bu has always regarded itself as elite, and how can Liu Bei's goal succeed.
Outside Fuguan, Lu Bu attached great importance to this war, and important generals and strategists in the army also followed Lu Bu to Fuguanwai.
Knowing that his army was actually blocked by the enemy on the Fu Pass, Lu Bu frowned slightly, the combat effectiveness of the trapped camp and the Qiang soldiers on the battlefield was undoubted, and after the two were combined, they could not occupy an absolute advantage, which made Lu Bu slightly surprised.
"Fengxiao, what is Liu Bei's intention?" Lu Bu set his eyes on Guo Jia, according to Guo Jia's previous analysis, Liu Bei should be ready to give up Fuguan, his own army is attacking fiercely, and taking advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness, has already captured Fuguan, but the enemy army is at this time, stubborn resistance, so that Lu Bu is a little confused.
Guo Jia pondered for a while, then understood Liu Bei's intentions, and said in a low voice: "Lord, what is Liu Bei's biggest reliance in Yizhou?" β
Seeing that Guo Jia did not answer positively, but asked himself, Lu Bu muttered slightly: "If Liu Bei wants to obtain more things in Yizhou, he must rely on the support of the family, and the family is the main reason why Liu Bei's power in Yizhou can be stabilized. β
Guo Jia said with a smile: "Liu Bei can naturally see this, but since the lord led the army to attack Yizhou, the Yizhou army has been defeated and retreated, and is in a completely disadvantageous situation on the battlefield, not only the Jianmen Pass, Zitong and Bajun are lost, Yan Yan, Li Yan and other Shuzhong generals are also killed on the battlefield, in this way, the family of Yizhou will definitely have doubts about Liu Bei, which is also inevitable, presumably Liu Bei also saw this clearly, even if it is to give up Fuguan, it will also make our army suffer heavy losses, in this case, The family in Yizhou will be able to trust Liu Bei, so that they will not make drastic moves. β
Lu Bu nodded, thinking that Guo Jia's analysis made some sense.
