"Make Jun Renyi known to the world, but once you send troops to the rescue, not only will you not be able to save Qingzhou, but you will even fall to Xuzhou to the dilemma."

"This is also what I am most worried about, after all, the troops to aid Qingzhou cannot be less, but I am worried that when the Xuzhou troops are insufficient, I will be attacked by Zhenrong or Zang Ba, I am afraid that it will be ......" said at the end, the worry was overflowing.

Cao Hong said with a smile: "The envoy is just worried about Zang Ba, but he forgets that Zang Ba can also be a dark move. ”

"Dark chess?"

Liu Lan suddenly blessed his heart, and looked at Cao Hong with a happy face, but then shook his head again, and said, "I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to agree to send troops to aid Qingzhou." ”

"Lord, the businessmen in this world are unprofitable and cannot afford to be early, as the so-called profit is, although the mountains of thousands of miles are everywhere; Under the abyss, everything is everywhere, although Zang Ba is not a businessman, but Zishi believes that as long as the lord's conditions are opened to Zang Ba can not refuse, he will definitely agree to send troops. He said this, but with a little agitation, he said: "And the lord can take this opportunity to solve the Guangling Rong, and as long as he can collect the army of Danyang and send troops to Qingzhou, he will be able to defeat the Yuan army in one fell swoop!" ”

Liu Lan's eyes lit up, but then they dimmed again, and said with a wry smile: "The conditions that can impress Zang Ba will be harsh, and I am not afraid of raising tigers, what I am most worried about now is to completely control the Danyang Army, it is too difficult!" ”

Cao Hong had already thought of a countermeasure, but he didn't dare to say it, seeing that the time was ripe, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, and he arched his hand and said: "Zishi has one or two best strategies, I don't know if the lord is willing to hear about it?" ”

"You say!"

"This plan is somewhat vicious, regardless of whether the lord adopts it or not. I also hope that the lord will forgive Meng Shi for the sin of false words! ”

Liu Lan is now at a loss, since someone can solve the trouble of the Danyang Army for him. Of course, he has to listen to it first, and then decide whether to adopt it or not. Those were all afterwords, and he immediately waved his hand and said, "I will not blame you, you can just say it." ”

"The Danyang army envoy in Xuzhou City must know that it harbors evil intentions, but it can't be moved lightly, but it is better to solve the Guangling Rongrong place, and then the envoy will only need to slaughter all the officers of the Guangling Danyang Army after breaking through Guangling County, and then scatter all its soldiers. There is no need to worry about being newly incorporated into the army. ”

"Yes, it coincides with me, but what about the Danyang Army in Xuzhou?"

"Drive the tiger and devour the wolf." Cao Hong's eyes flashed with a hint of ruthlessness, and said: "The battle of Guangling has made Jun Ke do his best to drive the Danyang army in Xuzhou City, if he does not obey the order, he can use this as an excuse to behead his generals and seize his generals." Then all the new formations will be scattered, and if they obey the order, then the lord will be able to secretly plot ......"

He said this, but he didn't dare to say any more, after all, if this kind of thing was heard, I was afraid that he would be cut by a thousand knives. And some words only need to be clicked to stop, he believes that Liu Lan must understand what he means, so he just listened to him continue: "And when the time comes, the lord can be dissatisfied with his establishment." Break up from the new formation, and the former generals of the Danyang Army. The lord may be ......charged with a charge of unfavorable command. He made a decapitation gesture.

Liu Lan didn't speak, just nodded in his heart. Secretly said, this person actually thought of the same thing as himself. He remembered the thought that came to him after Chen Deng's words to him on the day of Zuolu's rebellion, and this plan that had been buried all this time was heard from Cao Hong's mouth again today, so that he could reduce the burden in his heart a little.

"The second is Zang Ba."

Cao Hong's face was uncertain, he knew that this was the key to this matter, and he was even more uncertain what his fate would be after this matter was said, but the matter had come to this, he had no way to turn back, so he could only bite the bullet and said: "Guangling Zhenrong and Kaiyang Zangba, Zang Ba is strong and Zhenrong is weak, if the lord deals with Zhenrong first, with Zang Ba's person, he will definitely rescue him, this is what the king said before, the lips and teeth are cold, at that time, the lord not only can not capture Guangling, but also suffer the danger of being attacked from both sides, But once the lord first reached an agreement with Zang Ba to rescue Qingzhou, and Zhen Rong heard that even Zang Ba had surrendered to the envoy, he would naturally be frightened and no longer have the will to fight, and then the envoy would be able to decide Guangling in one fell swoop. ”

"Not bad." Liu Lan was really impressed by this Cao Hong, and said: "It's just that I can convince Zang Ba's conditions." As he spoke, he shook his head with a wry smile and said, "I'm afraid it's difficult for me to have such tempting conditions in my hands to drive him to aid Qingzhou." ”

"So that you have."

"I have? Could it be Xuzhou Mu? ”

Cao Hong shook his head and said, "So that you can promise Zang Ba to be the assassin of Qingzhou, and the condition is to rescue Qingzhou." ”

"But Qingzhou has Tian Kai, how can I ......"

Before Liu Lan finished speaking, he was interrupted by Cao Hong, and his words could only be swallowed alive, only to hear him say: "Now that Linzi is besieged, why don't you wait until Linzi City is broken before ......"

"What?" Liu Lan hit the case and said, "Where do you want to take me?" As he spoke, he glared at Cao Hong angrily.

"Envoy, the so-called non-toxic husband, that is, the lord is now making Zang Ba, can he still rescue Tian Tingshi? is to rescue Tian Thorn History, with the strength of Tian Thorn History, can he really help the lord in Xuzhou when he is in trouble? ”

He said that here met Liu Lan's cold eyes, and said without flinching: "Don't hesitate to make the king, exchange a false position for Zang Ba's sworn allegiance, or want to make Qingzhou fall into the hands of the Yuan family, and even make the envoy fall into a dilemma, only between the envoy's thoughts!" ”

Liu Lan sat down dejectedly, waved his hand, and said, "You stand down first, let me think about it." ”

"Lord......" Cao Hong still wanted to speak, but he didn't want to be scolded by Liu Lan, who was already angry: "I said it, let me think about it!" ”

Cao Hong was overjoyed in his heart, he had already guessed that Liu Lan agreed to his plan, and retreated, saying, "Then the next official will leave first." Saying that, Nono retired.

Looking at Cao Hong who disappeared in front of him, Liu Lan thought of a person in his heart, the poisonous Jia Xu, although he did not intersect with him, but from some understanding of later generations, this Cao Hong also has the ability to compete with him! The gloom on his face had not subsided, and he had already agreed with Cao Hong's plan in his heart. stared closely at the back of Cao Hong, who left behind the door of the room, until his figure disappeared completely, but his expression flashed a trace of ruthlessness in an instant, but then returned to normal. At this time, he really didn't know whether a person like him should be used or not......

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

The sun sets in the west. It was dark, and a red glow burned in the sky. The western sky was dyed red, and even the earth seemed to be replaced with red satin brocade, which made people intoxicated.

Not long after Cao Hong left, Xu Shu was summoned to the conference hall by Liu Lan, and soon after the two talked, it was rumored that Liu Lan would gather to discuss the matter. The generals arrived as soon as possible, and although they didn't know what was going on, the matter discussed by the overnight gathering was absolutely urgent.

At this time, there were only Liu Lan and Xu Shu in the conference hall, and they only listened to Xu Shulang, who was sitting down, laughing. said: "The lord's plan is really wonderful. "The face is full of admiration.

"Yuan Zhi said this." Liu Lan shook his head and said, "I just add a little to this plan, if there is no Yuan Zhi, how can I come up with such a wonderful plan." ”

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, at this moment someone had already arrived, and the first person to arrive was Cao Bao. Liu Lan originally didn't have the idea of recruiting Cao Bao to come to discuss the matter, but the strategy he had discussed with Xu Shu before was indispensable for this person, so he recruited him temporarily, but he didn't think that the person who recruited him temporarily would be the first to arrive.

Liu Lan and Cao Bao exchanged greetings a few times. Immediately, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Xu Tan, Zhang Jaw and others came one after another. After everyone sat down, Liu Lan opened his mouth and said, "I invite you to come today." Not for anything else, but because Kong Beihai sent a messenger to ask for help in the afternoon. Yan Yuan was originally sent to Qingzhou. After speaking, he glanced at everyone and saw their expressions after learning about it.

The expressions of the crowd were different. There is surprise, there is calmness, but more is unbelievable, after all, at this time Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zhan in Youzhou is in full swing, no one would have thought that he would attack Qingzhou at such a critical juncture, suddenly saw Zhang Jaw get up and give his hand, and said: "Although Qingzhou is in a hurry, Jun Yi is more worried about whether Gongsun Taishou has ...... at this time."

Liu Lan naturally understood the meaning of what Zhang Jaw was going to say, after all, if it weren't for Gongsun Zhan's defeat, then Yuan Shao could only be described as stupid when he did this, shook his head and vetoed, and said: "According to the news I got, Gongsun Bogui and Yuan Shao are holding each other in Zhuo County, although there are occasional defeats, but it is not easy for Yuan Shao to solve Gongsun Bogui in a short time, so Yuan Shao must be fighting on two fronts at this time!" ”

Zhang Jaw nodded, exhaled turbidity, and slowly retreated to the front of the seat, although he did not continue to speak, but everyone was also much more relieved, as long as Gongsun Chan was not defeated, the situation in Qingzhou would not be too bad, with Yuan Shao's strength at this time, if he completed the battle, then Youzhou would be owned by him sooner or later, but at this moment he opened up two fronts, so that the strength of the army would be stretched.

Liu Lan saw that everyone was unimpressed with Qingzhou, shook his head and said: "If you think that the situation in Qingzhou is not serious, then you are very wrong, because Kong Beihai said in the letter that the Shao army has already surrounded Linzi. ”

"Soldiers encircling Linzi?"

Everyone was obviously not fully prepared for Liu Lan's bombshell, and Guan Yu, who was worried, got up and said, "In this way, the lord is going to send troops to rescue Qingzhou?" ”

"Everyone understands the importance of Qingzhou, so Qingzhou must be saved no matter what!" Liu Lan said categorically.

"No." Zhang Jaw suddenly got up and said: "Now that Guangling is melting, the Lang evil Zang hegemony has not been eliminated, if the lord sends troops to Qingzhou, if the two of them take advantage of the situation to enter, then the lord and Yuan Shao will hold each other in Qingzhou, what can they do?" ”

"What Jun Yi said is true." Guan Yu got up again and said, "The lord should think of a way to get the best of both worlds, otherwise you must not leave the state rashly!" ”

"I know that, too." Liu Lan's gaze turned from Guan Yu to the rest of the people, and said: "This time to rescue Qingzhou, if there are more troops, Xuzhou will be unstable, and if there are fewer troops, Qingzhou will be difficult to save, so this matter is also a headache!" Liu Lan stretched out his hand and rubbed the corners of his forehead, but while his sleeves were covered, he secretly looked at Xu Shu and signaled that it was his turn next.

Xu Shu was about to get up, but Chen Deng, who didn't want to be on the side, took the lead, arched his hand, and said, "Lord, in fact, this matter is also simple. ”

The plan was disrupted, and Liu Lan's previous rhetoric could only turn into a wry smile, and said, "Yuanlong has a clever plan?" ”

Chen Deng said with a look of a hill and a valley in his chest: "Zang Ba is strong and Di Rong is weak, if the lord attacks Zang Ba, he will not dare to come out, if the lord attacks Zang Ba, then Zang Ba will definitely come to the rescue, in this way, the lord should first get rid of Zang Ba and then suppress Zhen Rong, although Qingzhou is in difficulty, but the lord should be based on a solid foundation." It is the current top priority not to send troops to rescue Qingzhou, but to attack Zang Ba first, so that it will be able to kill chickens and set an example for monkeys, so that Zhenrong has no courage to fight against the lord, secondly, when the lord collects Zang Ba and Zhenrong, the army will be prosperous, and in aid of Qingzhou, it will be able to attack the city in a battle. After Chen Deng finished speaking, his face was full of worry, and said: "If the lord does not take this opportunity to completely stabilize Xuzhou, but rescues Qingzhou, I am afraid that the danger of Qingzhou will not be solved, Xuzhou will not be there, and I hope that the lord will think twice!" ”

Liu Lan's eyes widened, he couldn't believe his ears, if he didn't know that the strategy he had discussed with Xu Shu before would never be heard by Chen Deng, then he would definitely suspect that his previous conspiracy with Xu Shu had been overheard by Chen Deng. I admired Chen Deng in my heart, and what he said was about the same as his own plan, which alone could not help but be impressive. At the same time, Xu Shu, who was preempted by Chen Deng, finally came out: "Shu also agrees with what Yuan Long said. ”

Xu Shu agreed, and all the generals who originally disagreed with Liu Lan's rescue of Qingzhou also came out one by one, and said: "We all agree with what Yuanlong said!" ”

The plot was reversed, and seeing that even Guan Yu and others, who had hesitated before, also came out to agree, Liu Lan frowned and said, "That's the case, let's postpone the rescue of Qingzhou." The conversation changed and said: "But it is necessary to move quickly to send troops to Kaiyang." After speaking, he looked at everyone and said: "Xuzhou is the first place, even if you send troops to Kaiyang, you have to leave a general to garrison." Saying that, he glanced at everyone, and didn't want everyone to bow their heads together, at this time, no one wanted to miss the attack on Zang Ba but stayed in Xuzhou City to defend the city, Liu Lan could understand their thoughts, and his tone changed, and said: "Then Zilong will come from Xiaopei to guard Xuzhou." After speaking, he looked at Chen Deng and Mi Zhu, and said, "Zizhong and Yuanlong must work together with Zilong to defend Xuzhou!" ”

"I will not disappoint my lord."

"Okay." Liu Lan praised and then glanced at everyone one by one, and everyone became eager to try at this time, looking forward to Liu Lan being able to order his general, but for a moment he continued: "Xu Sheng. ”

"The last general!"

Xu Sheng was overjoyed in his heart, since the general of Xuzhou had been chosen, he naturally had to explain his attack on Zang Ba.

"Xiao Pei is the gateway to Xuzhou, and it is impossible to do without a general." Liu Lan looked at Xu Sheng with burning eyes and said, "Order you to go to Xiaopei to replace Zilong." After speaking, he said earnestly: "Be sure to keep Xiaopei with Xianhe, and there must be no half-point difference." (To be continued.) )
