Chapter 1238 Cast a big net to catch fish

Li Tong saw that Han Hao was not agitated, and smiled bitterly. (_)

The rugged northern man in front of him is not a rough brain.

He thought about it for a while, and had to say: "When the army was in Gaoshan County, we thought about bypassing Huailing County, entering Yuzhou, and then throwing off the Shu army led by Xu Shu in one fell swoop. But the development of things is beyond our control, Xu Shu led the army to wait for us in Huailing County, and there are Tai Shici's pursuers behind him, it is very difficult to enter Yuzhou. ”

Han Hao said loudly: "Master Li, what is there to be afraid of, fight!" ”

Yang Chi sneered: "No matter who it is, if you are bullied, you want to fight back, the question is can you win?" ”

Han Hao retorted loudly: "Now you have to fight, and you have to fight if you can't win." The two argued, and no one let them, arguing over whether to send troops.

"Enough!!"

Li Tong shouted loudly before stopping the two.

Yang Chi snorted and asked, "My lord, what are your plans?" Yang Chi thought that Li Tong must have a plan, so he would say that he would let Han Hao take charge of the army, otherwise Li Tong would not be able to be targeted.

Li Tong said in a deep voice: "We withdrew from Gaoshan County to Yuzhou in order to preserve more strength. Now, I still think so, to save more power. However, it is impossible to escape without sacrifice, so I thought about it and decided to sacrifice some of the soldiers and save most of the strength. ”

Han Hao asked directly, "What should I do?" ”

Li Tong replied: "The army is divided into two groups, I lead 20,000 people, and General Han and Yang Zhushu lead the remaining 40,000 people. The two armies temporarily turned around together and headed for Shouchun with the intention of counterattacking Yangzhou. In this way, whether it is Xu Shu's army in Huailing County or Tai Shici's army in the back, they will be mobilized. ”

"After the two Shu armies were mobilized, the army led by me pretended to be 60,000 people and continued to kill towards Shouchun to attract the attention of Xu Shu and Tai Shici."

"I attracted the Shu army, and General Han and the head of Yang led 40,000 people to quietly leave and go north to Yuzhou."

"Losing a small part of the troops, so as to preserve the 40,000 army, can be regarded as worthy of Your Majesty's trust." Li Tong looked at Han Hao with a serious expression, and said in a deep voice: "General Han, now you understand my intentions, and you also understand the whole plan. I will hand over the 40,000 army to you and the master of Heyang, are you willing to accept it? ”

Han Hao shook his head, unwilling to agree.

Li Tong frowned and said, "General Han, it's about the life and death of 40,000 people, you can't be willful." ”

Han Hao said: "Lord Li, you led the army to death, and you are a loyal minister. But I fled with my soldiers, and that was not good. Simply I will lead an army of 20,000 to attract Xu Shu and Tai Shici, and you will take the army to Yuzhou. ”

Li Tong smiled and said, "General Han, if you can say this, it means that I am not wrong." You are right to lead an army of 40,000, and with the assistance of the Yang Master, you will definitely succeed. Your Majesty appointed me as the assassin of Yangzhou, and now that Yangzhou has fallen, I should have apologized with death, so let me, a sinner, take 20,000 soldiers. ”

Yang Chi saw that Li Tong had made up his mind, and said, "General Han, your lord has made up your mind, you can agree." ”

Han Hao said again: "Master Li, you have become a loyal minister, but I have become a deserter!" ”

Li Tong said in a deep voice: "It's easy to die, but it's difficult to live." General Han, the lives of the 40,000 soldiers in the army have been handed over to you, and I hope you will bring them back. ”

Han Hao nodded solemnly and said, "Don't worry, even if Han Hao dies, he will bring 40,000 people into Yuzhou." ”

Li Tong said again: "Only the three of us know about this matter, and we can't leak it out." When you leave with 40,000 people, you can only say that you have other arrangements, and you can't let the other 20,000 people know, otherwise all your plans will fall short. ”

Yang Chi and Han Hao nodded and agreed.

At this moment, Han Hao stared at Li Tong in awe. The person in front of him is neither tall nor strong, but he has a majestic atmosphere, and he is a real national cadre.

A person like Yu Ban has a false appearance, but he is just a bad seed.

Li Tongchang breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Since you have all agreed, I will immediately go to the army to select soldiers, hoping that they will not live up to my expectations." ”

After finishing speaking, Li Tong turned around and left the big tent.

Han Hao and Yang Chi looked at each other with serious expressions. The two looked at Li Tong's departing back, and suddenly felt that the back was as heavy as a mountain, and the two of them were almost out of breath.

Great! Li Tong!

……

The Shu army was stationed in Huailing County, did not enter the city, and did not camp outside the city. Xu Shu knew that Li Tong wanted to enter Yuzhou with a large army, so he directly stationed on the road to Yuzhou, blocking the Wei army's only way to Yuzhou. If the Wei army wants to enter Yuzhou, it will inevitably be attacked by the Shu army.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Xu Shu sat in the camp tent, and Gan Ning and Zhou Tai sat below.

Xu Shu looked at Gan Ning and asked, "Gan Dudu, where did Tai Shi Ci lead the army?" ”

Gan Ning replied: "Tai Shi Ci will be able to reach Huailing County in one more day, and the army he led followed behind the Wei army, cutting off the Wei army's retreat. Now the Wei army is caught in the middle and can only wait for death. ”

After finishing speaking, Gan Ning laughed and was very happy.

Xu Shu shook his head and said: "Li Tong guards Yangzhou, and he is also a person with outstanding wisdom, so he cannot be taken lightly. ”

Zhou Tai said: "Mr. Xu, the last general still has a question. Right now, our army is extremely strong, why don't we directly attack the Wei army and force the Wei army towards Tai Shici. It is also feasible to flank the Wei army in this way, so why wait for Tai Shici? ”

Xu Shu said with a smile: "The 60,000 army led by Li Tong has no way to advance or retreat, and it is already a lone army. On top of that, this army has no food and grass supply, and the longer it drags on, the easier it is to be wiped out. If it drags on for ten days and a half months, if we don't make a move, they will all collapse by themselves, so waiting for Tai Shici to come is equivalent to attacking the Wei army. ”

Zhou Tai pursed his lips, obviously not very fond of this method.

"Report!!"

At this time, a soldier hurried in. The soldier clasped his fists at Xu Shu and saluted, and said loudly: "My lord, the Wei army suddenly withdrew from Huailing County and went in the direction of Yangzhou. ”

Xu Shu raised his eyebrows, with a stunned look on his face.

He quickly regained his composure and ordered: "Send all the scouts at once to carefully investigate the movements of the Wei army and find out what the Wei army is going to do?" ”

"No!!"

The soldier who reported the news responded with his fists clenched and turned to leave.

Gan Ning thought for a while and said, "Mr. Xu, something is wrong. Li informed that Shouchun was captured by Tai Shici, and he also knew that Shouchun had an army garrison, and he understood that going to Shouchun was stuck in a quagmire and it was difficult to get out. Counterattacking Yangzhou, not only will it not be beneficial, but the 60,000 Wei troops will definitely die or live, but it is really strange that he made such a decision. ”

Xu Shu nodded and said: "Li Tong's approach is indeed very abnormal, and I can't figure out what Li Tong's intentions are in a hurry, but it is certain that Li Tong will not kill himself." ”

Zhou Tai said arrogantly: "Whatever, catch up and talk about it." As long as you catch up with the Wei army, everything will be solved. ”

Xu Shu shook his head and said: "You can't chase indiscriminately, the more chaotic you are, the easier it is to be fooled." Since Li Tong is scheming, I will accompany him to make a few good moves. I cast a big net for him, and no matter what tricks he played, he would jump in the big net. In the end, Li Tong still couldn't escape, so he could only wait for death. ”

Gan Ning asked, "Sir, what are you going to do?" ”

Xu Shu said with a smile: "The so-called casting a big net is to spread out the situation." It would be a waste of time and would consume a lot of troops, but it would be worth it to completely wipe out Li Tong's 60,000 Wei troops. If we do this,......, Zhou Tai and I will lead the army to pursue the Shu army, and Gandu will be responsible for collecting the net and gradually controlling the situation. ”

"Mr. Xu, rest assured, Gan Ning will definitely be completed."

Gan Ning patted his chest and replied loudly.

After the matter was discussed, Gan Ning and Zhou Tai left the army and went to prepare.
