"As Yuan Hao said, attack in different directions, what about Yecheng?"

Yuan Shao asked the question that everyone wanted to know the most, at this time, Yecheng was the only base that Yuan Shao could supply soldiers and grain and grass, if he wanted to abandon Yecheng and attack the plain, then he would rather defeat Du Chang first, and then attack the plain!

"The Montenegrin Army has no combat power, and it is all composed of the Yellow Turban Rebellion. And our army has a large army of 30,000 at this time, and I think that the cavalry under the command of General Wen Chou will be able to succeed in a battle and repel Du Chang! Looking at Yuan Shao expectantly, he hoped that the lord would understand that what he said was true, and soon he saw hope and said: "And those who go to the plains will be accompanied by General Yan Liang and the trial and governance (trial matching), this is a fortification and not a field battle, and the number of soldiers and horses under command should be in the number of ten thousand, otherwise it will be easy to capture!" ”

"You mean that only 5,000 people will be left to guard Ye City?" Yuan Shao looked at Tian Feng in disbelief, with a hint of shock and disbelief in his voice.

Tian Feng nodded heavily, and then kowtowed heavily, when his forehead touched the sheep felt on the ground and made a knocking sound, everyone in the tent took a deep breath of cold air, Yuan Hao's courage was too big.

Guo Tu sneered, stepped forward, and said excitedly: "Ridiculous, ridiculous!" Tian Feng, do you want to put the lord to death? As he spoke, he also knelt on the ground and cried: "The lord thinks twice, Tian Fengshi wants to put the lord to death!" There are tens of thousands of troops in the opposite camp, if you let him know that there are only 5,000 soldiers and horses left under the command of the lord, and then he will cover up and kill......" Saying this, Guo Tu couldn't cry and said: "The lord quickly pushed Tian Feng out and beheaded him, this person has ill intentions!" ”

"What the public rule says is reasonable, and I hope the lord will think twice." Xu You stood up and said that although he was a Nanyang scholar, he naturally wanted to help Guo Tu in dealing with Hebei scholars, especially Tian Feng.

"My lord, what Yuan Hao said is not unreasonable. But it's too risky. "Confucius once said: 'A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall', how can the lord easily make a mistake? Why don't you take Du Chang first, in the plain of the figure! ”

"Judging Zhengnan, you are the key to the lord!"

Tian Feng shouted indignantly, and the villains of Runan and Nanyang did not react much to Tian Feng, which was expected. But even his friends came to oppose it, that is, the rat's eyes were gone, and he said: "If you attack Du Chang first, Gongsun Chan will definitely be reinforced, so it will fall into our army and the stalemate or even the crisis, if you attack it in two directions, then Gongsun Chan will face three problems, one is whether the plain can be saved?" The second is whether Yecheng is attacked or not. The third is that Du Chang does not help. Speaking of this, he looked at Yuan Shao and said: "If Feng's expectations are not bad, at that time, Gongsun Zan will definitely help the plain on the one hand, and attack Yecheng on the other. After a pause, he said categorically: "And Gongsun Zhanruo divided his troops to rescue the plain. The army must be weakened, and the army must be captured at that time. But it is even more difficult, and the lord is very popular in Ye, and then the people of Yecheng can insist, as long as General Wenchou grasps the opportunity to return in time, then Yecheng is worry-free, so we just need to wait patiently. At that time, Gongsun Zhan must have no food in the army, and seeing that Yecheng cannot be conquered in a short time, he can only return to Youzhou. ”

Speaking of this, he raised his head to meet Yuan Shao's eager eyes, and continued: "In this way, our army can attack it back and forth, and at that time, Gongsun Chan had no food and grass and no military heart. A battle will be set! At this time, the two of them were the same as that day, and their eager eyes were in focus, making them seem to be back to the time when they had made a plan a few days ago.

"Ridiculous, Tian Feng, you and I are all fools? Even if the plain is captured, Gongsun Chan can still transport grain from Youzhou, so why is there no food? Seeing Tian Feng's commanding appearance on the side, Feng Ji, who had been watching coldly, sneered and said.

As soon as the words fell, I saw the herald outside the tent shouting loudly, "Report to the lord, there is an urgent military situation!" Saying that, he lifted the curtain and entered, knelt down and said: "Enlighten the lord, General Cui Juye has been ordered to besiege Gu'an with the day before yesterday!" ”

Everyone couldn't believe their ears, and looked at Yuan Shao and Tian Feng together, didn't Cui Juye follow Gao Lan in the river? When was he sent to attack the old peace? Everyone was curious, but they had to applaud the master's wisdom, and felt even more sorry for Gongsun Zhan's misfortune.

"As long as Cui Juye captures Gu'an, Gongsun Zhan's back road will be cut off, and Youzhou will be able to send grain?" Tian Feng had been kneeling on the ground, and when he heard the soldiers surrounding him, he raised his head, and there was a trace of blood on his forehead, looking extremely hideous.

Ordered Zhang Jaw to rob his grain and grass, and made Cui Juye seize the gateway to Youzhou, and finally made the plan of hiding the sky and crossing the sea to order Yan Liang to seize the plain, and when the army had no food, he attacked it before and after, a good Tian Yuanhao, a good plan to go to the house and draw a ladder to end the household, he didn't let Gongsun Chan go, it was clear that Gongsun Chan would stay in Jizhou completely! ”

In his heart, he thought about Tian Feng's series of strategies for this battle, and praised it in his heart: If it is fake, before instigating it, he will cut off his support and fall into death. In case of poison, the position is inappropriate! What a wonderful plan to "go to the house and draw a ladder", now even if Gongsun Chan knows that Gu'an is trapped, it will be too late to send reinforcements!

Looking at Tian Feng's expectant eyes and the eagerness of the generals, Yuan Shao knew that all the generals had approved of the strategy of splitting the direction, stood up, and said, "Yuan Hao got up first and said!" ”

Watching Tian Feng get up, Yuan Shao's eyes were shining, he drew his sword, and said proudly: "Yuan Hao is strategizing, anticipating the enemy's opportunity, if this battle can break Gongsun, Yuan Hao should be the first to make a plan!" As soon as Yuan Shao's words came out, it was equivalent to announcing that he had made up his mind to fight Gongsun Zan to the death.

But it is precisely like this, Guo Tu, Feng Ji and the others suddenly changed color, their faces were indignant, in their opinion, Tian Feng's plan was good, but if Yuan Shaoken made himself speak, it would not be worse than him, but the frustration standing on the side was slightly bowed, obviously deeply impressed by Yuan Shao's words.

Although the generals under the rank agree very much, they are more willing to earn more military merit than those who can't get the first merit.

Tian Feng was not complacent, just like the appearance of a humble gentleman before, he said modestly: "The lord has won the award, this is a matter of abundance, if you talk about the first merit, it should be the soldiers who fought on the front line, and more importantly, the wise decision of the lord!" ”

Yuan Shao's favorite thing about Tian Feng is that he is not arrogant, but what he appreciates more is that he knows how to skillfully push the credit down on his head, laughed, and said loudly: "This merit belongs to Yuan Hao, is it difficult to fight with Yuan Hao?" At this point, his face suddenly changed, and he said sharply: "The generals listen to the order!" ”

"In!"

Yuan Shao's subordinates clasped their fists with both hands at the same time. Taking a step forward, although Tian Feng proposed that Yan Liangwen be ugly and matched, as long as the lord is not decided, everyone has a fluke, hoping that the lord can make him go, looking eager to try......

~~~~~~~

Outside the tent, I don't know when it started to snow. Gradually, the snow became heavier and heavier, falling on the vast land, rendering the dark night a silvery white, which was extremely beautiful.

On the low machine in the tent, the candle tears of the candles have been piled up, and a long figure is reflected on the big tent, like a sculpture motionless, and the black eyes have long been filled with bloodshots, showing despair and exhaustion.

This is certainly not a sculpture, but a big man. Beiping is too guarded by Gongsun Zhan, a general who makes foreign races fearful. At this time, he sat behind the low table with a distracted expression, staring blankly at the pot leak.

Time walked slowly in his anxious waiting, the "rustle" of the funnel was unhurried, and the taste of waiting was like torment, making his heart feel like it was being roasted repeatedly on the grill, and the feeling of suffocation made him desperate for time to be faster, faster. As long as the pot leaks and dries up, Liu Lan will appear in front of him!

A certain moment. Annoyed, he stood up suddenly, and was about to overturn the pot leak with his backhand, but his hand suddenly stopped, he knew that even if the pot leak overturned, it was just self-deception, if time could be turned back, he had countless ways to defeat Yuan Shao. But how can there ever be regret medicine in the world? Even if there is, how can it be his turn to be a Taishou of Beiping.

The whole person sat down weakly as if he had been stripped of a cocoon, but his eyes flashed from time to time, staring at the curtain like hysteria, and after finding that there was nothing abnormal, he became mindless and cloudy.

Suddenly, there was the sound of tuk-tuk horses' hooves outside the tent, and Gongsun Zhan, who was as still as a sculpture, jumped up. Ran out, as soon as the curtain was lifted, there was a familiar face and a man in Tsing Yi in a Confucian robe, Gongsun Chan lost his mind for a long time, and then laughed like a madman and let Liu Lan and Xu Shu into the account at the same time.

"Who is this?" After entering the camp, although the strange man came with Liu Lan, Gongsun Zhan still asked cautiously.

Liu Lan looked at the sluggish Sun Zan and introduced him: "This is Yingchuan Xu Shu Xu Yuanzhi, who is now the military advisor of his younger brother!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Xu Shu stepped forward to greet him, looking at the generous appearance of the young man in front of him, Gongsun Chan secretly praised in his heart.

After seeing the ceremony, Liu Lan saw that he glanced at him, to understand his meaning, and said, "Bo Gui said that it is okay. He knew that there was an urgent matter in the army, otherwise he would not have summoned himself back in such a hurry.

Liu Lan was outspoken, and naturally knew that the young man in front of him was cited as a confidant, so he said openly and honestly: "So if you ask for help, can someone have a good plan?" At this time, there were only a few generals under Gongsun Zhan who could talk to him, and when he heard that he had returned to the division from Long, he was immediately recalled.

Liu Lan could eagerly feel Gongsun Zhan's expectations, and followed him to the corner where the map was hung in the big tent, so he was more familiar with it than anyone else, and when he crusaded against the Yellow Turban, Liu Lan could almost be said to be the first shot fired in Gu'an, so he found Gu'an at a glance on the map.

Therefore, Liu Lan naturally understands its importance, and naturally knows the severity of the situation and why Gongsun Chan is so depressed, but in the face of such a situation, how should he turn things around?

His eyes instantly fell on Xu Shu, although he will be very good in the future, but who can guarantee that he is just a good person who has just reached the crown, and now Liu Lan is not pinning his hopes on him, but he knows that the people in front of him will definitely be able to turn things around in the future!

Seeing that he was silent, Gongsun Zhan thought that he was thinking about a good strategy, but now there are only two ways to choose, and the military situation is urgent and cannot be considered too much, so he broke the silence in the tent and said: "At this time, Gu An had to be saved, but I don't know whether the army immediately returned to the division or divided the troops to save him!" ”

What a brilliant way to get up to the house. When Xu Shu sighed in his heart, he heard Gongsun Zan say again: "If the army returns to the division, it will be taken advantage of by Yuan Shao, for today's plan, only Deran will lead the army and horses to Gu'an to relieve his brother's worries!" ”

"No!"

Xu Shu blurted out in a hurry, and said: "This battle is like a game, now Yuan Shao has become a tizi, and if General Gongsun sends an army to Gu'an, it will be too late to save Gu'an, and secondly, at this time, the whereabouts of the river are unknown, and then if Deran Gong rashly goes to Gu'an, the enemy will ambush him, and he will fall into the danger of General Gongsun. Otherwise, our army is in danger of being wiped out! ”

He has already seen the overall situation clearly, at this time, if he jumps out of the battle in time, and if he avoids another way, he can still compete with Yuan Shao. "Unless it's ......"

"Unless what?" The two spoke in unison and looked at Xu Shudao expectantly.

"Unless Youzhou sends troops now and can rush to Gu'an early, otherwise, ......" Xu Shu didn't dare to imagine what catastrophic things would happen at that time, and there seemed to be a tragic image of nearly 60,000 people dying on the battlefield in front of him!

If it weren't for Xu Shu's mention, Liu Lanke would have forgotten a secret chess move, and suddenly laughed: "There is a way!" ”

As he spoke, a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes, and he snorted coldly: "Yuan Shao is really a son at this time, but he doesn't know that Bo Gui has already sent an army to receive the son!" ”

Said here. Gongsun Zhan suddenly woke up: "What does Deran mean Zilong? ”

"Yes, you can immediately transfer Zilong to the north to aid Gu'an, and my younger brother will quickly lead the army north." Liu Lan smiled a little hysterically: "No wonder Zilong not only can't touch Zhang Jaw in the river, but also can't lure Gao Lan, since one of them went to Youzhou and the other went to Bohai, didn't he become an off-the-board trick without any restraint?" ”

The declining trend suddenly took a turn for the better, and Gongsun Chan also laughed proudly and said, "Just according to the words of the virtuous brother." Paizilong went north to Gu'an, I want to see if the pockets clothed by the airless son of Zhang Jaw are really strong! ”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Early the next morning. It can be described as a sunny day in winter, although it is still cold, but for the Youzhou soldiers who have already put on winter clothes, it is not so refreshing.

For Liu Lan, who took the lead, the occasional wind blew like a warm wind, which made him feel relaxed and happy, and he was confident to reverse the disadvantage at this time, and he also embarked on the journey with such an idea.

"My lord. Why did we leave so blatantly? Isn't this telling Yuan Shao about the whereabouts of our army?" Zhen Yanshu on the side asked the doubts in his heart.

"It is to let Yuan Shao know that our army wants to come north to aid Gu'an!"

Liu Lan glanced at Xu Shu and saw that he didn't mean to explain it, so he smiled at Zhen Yan and said: "According to the military information from Gu'an, the person who attacked the city is Cui Juye, so come." First of all, regardless of whether Gao Ran is in his hometown or not, it is the uncertain open jaw that we can't underestimate him! ”

Seeing that Zhen Yan looked at him as if he didn't understand, he continued: "Instead of letting him escape, why don't you use our army as bait, and then destroy Zhang Jaw in one fell swoop after Zilong finishes cleaning up the huge cause of the old An Cui!" ”

Zhen Yan still looked ambiguous, Liu Lan looked at Xu Shu and said, "Yuan Zhi, you can solve your doubts!" ”

"My lord."

Xu Shu bowed his hand and said, "Since the lord said so, then Shu will be ugly!" ”

The so-called good generals use soldiers, if they are good at medical treatment, the disease is ever-changing, and the medicine is also ever-changing. At this time, if our army marched secretly, the Jizhou soldier who was in the shadows would not dare to stay for a long time after the defeat of Cui Juye in Gu'an County, and if he returned to the division, Yuan Shao's momentum would rise. However, if our army goes forward with great fanfare, the results of the battle are unknown at this time, and Zhang Jaw will definitely deal with our army in order to ensure that the peace is foolproof.

And our army can take this opportunity to lead out Zhang Jaw and Gao Ran and wait for the opportunity to annihilate, even if it cannot be annihilated, it must be dragged down, and after General Zilong calms down and moves south, the front and back will be able to destroy the Yuan army in northern Hebei in one fell swoop, so that Yuan Shao's arm will be cut off and our army will be relieved of the danger of lack of food, and then our army will merge with Gongsun Beiping after the destruction of the Yuan army, Yuan Shaoyan has the reason to be undefeated?

"That's a great plan!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Although Liu Lan and his entourage were under the banner of reinforcing Gu'an to the north, the people who knew the inside story were Liu Lan's generals and Tian Yu, and when the troops entered Julu County, due to the cold weather, and they were not sure where Zhang Jaw was, Liu Lan also slowed down the march.

Yuan Shao would never want to relieve the siege of Gu'an, so Zhang Jaw would definitely appear and stop it, and in this case, Liu Lan was also happy to be idle, and ordered the three armies to march cautiously but was not in a hurry to rush to Gu'an.

After camping that night, Liu Lan practiced from outside the tent as soon as he mentioned the dragon slaying knife, while Xu Chu was guarding on the side, and at a glance, he didn't know how long the hour had passed, and suddenly heard the sound of footsteps, knowing that it was not a patrol soldier, but he looked around and saw Xu Shu coming from not far away.

Xu Chu frowned, and he didn't know why he came here at this time, but when he saw him come to his side, he whispered, "How long has the lord been practicing?" ”

Xu Chu was not distracted, always paying attention to the situation around him, and replied: "It's been more than half an hour!" After speaking, he asked, "I don't know what the gentleman is here for?" ”

Although he said that he shouted the word Mr. in his mouth, his tone did not have a little respect, although he was an old acquaintance of the lord, but after all, he met and worked in Longcuo, so although Xu Chu Mingli was respectful to him, he was mostly defensive in his heart.

"I have something important to tell my lord!" As soon as the words fell, Liu Lan, who had already seen Xu Shu, put down his weapon and walked over with a smile: "Is it possible that Yuan Zhi is so late that there is something important?" ”

Although he practiced for most of the hour, he did not sweat a drop, and after collecting the sword into the sheath, he entered the account with Xu Chu and Xu Shu.

After seeing it, I only heard Xu Shu say: "Lord, I have been thinking about it for the past few days, and some places are still not well understood, so I have come to discuss with the lord!" ”

After a pause, he said what he thought in his heart and said: "Yuan Zhi is determined, those who advise Yuan Shao must have a follow-up move!" ”

Liu Lan saw that he swore an oath, as if everything had been seen through by him, his heart moved, and asked: "Yuan Zhizhi said quickly, what other poisonous plans does Yuan Shao have?" ”

Xu Shu sorted out his thoughts and said: "If you think about it carefully in the past few days, this battle seems to be a plan by Yuan Shao to secretly use Chen Cang and hide from the sky and cross the sea, but it is actually a plan to go to the house and draw a ladder!" Seeing his puzzled face, he explained: "No matter what Yuan Shao wanted to do at the beginning of this battle, but at this time it was definitely a plan to go to the house and draw a ladder, Yuan Shao used Jizhou as a bait to lure our army south, so as to destroy our army's grain and grass, and cut off our army's back road, so that our army can be trapped in Jizhou, and he will sit and wait for our army to run out of food in one fell swoop!" ”

"What Yuan Zhi said is reasonable, Yuan Shao just wanted to send a partial division to rob our army's grain at the beginning, and he didn't want to create such favorable conditions for him with the development of the war!" Liu Lan sighed.

"Lord, since Yuan Shao has made up his mind to cut off our army's grain and grass, Bogui can't transfer grain from Youzhou, and our army took away a large amount of grain and straw when he left, so Bogui should only have a plain for grain and grass aid, with Yuan Shao's ability to explore horses, how can he not be observed?"

"Are you saying that Yuan Shao has the intention of moving the plains?"

It seems unbelievable, but after thinking about it carefully, Liu Lan also felt that what Xu Shu said was true, and said sadly: "I don't know if Yuan Zhi has a good strategy?" ”

"There is no good solution, but there is a way that is not a way!"

Xu Shu smiled bitterly and said: "For today's plan, no matter whether Yuan Shao sends troops to the plains or not, it will not be possible if he goes less, and he has to worry about the main force of General Bogui if he goes more, so why don't the lord immediately repair General Gongsun, so that when he is in trouble in the plain, he can just storm Yecheng, if he can take the opportunity to break through Yecheng, the momentum of Jizhou can be determined!" ”

"What?"

Liu Lan looked at Xu Shu in disbelief, such a strategy to cut off his arm was really won, and the price Yuan Shaoke paid was too great, and he said without saying anything: "No, the plain can't be ignored!" ”

"Lord!"

Xu Shu was a little anxious, and persuaded bitterly: "Only now can we determine the situation of Jizhou, if we insist on rescuing the plain, our army is in danger!" At this moment, he must persuade Liu Lan to make a choice.

Liu Lan hesitated in his heart, although the plain was not his foundation, and if he abandoned it, he would abandon it, but the key was where there were still Guan Yu and other generals, how could he give it up easily, and said: "This matter has to be mentioned again......

"Lord, there must be no woman's kindness!"

Xu Shu saw that he was difficult to decide, and admonished: "If you really want the plain to be safe, there is only one way to besiege Yuan Shao, this is the strategy of Sun Bin to besiege Wei and save Zhao in the past!" ”

The tent once again fell into a short stalemate, and after a long time, Liu Lan compromised and said, "Okay, just according to what Yuan Zhi said!" Of course, if Yuan Shao really dared to send troops to fight the plains, Liu Lan would never stand idly by, he didn't want his family to be uprooted by Yuan Shao...... (To be continued.) )

PS:PS: Explain the bug that appeared in the previous chapter, if Xu Shu's real name should be called Shan Fu according to the record, and the book is reversed because the name Xu Shu is more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so you don't have to be too serious!
