Fang Li thought that if he wanted to recruit Gongsun Yan, he would have to spend a lot of brains, but he didn't expect Gongsun Yan to take the initiative to bewitch himself to stand on his own, so he almost said directly, "Boss, you can do it yourself, I'll follow you!" ”

After this period of tempering, Fang Licheng was much deeper, and in the face of Gongsun Yan's statement, he did not make bold statements, but took a posture of wanting to capture the old and indulge.

With an embarrassed face, he said: "I want to do a vigorous career, but with the 80,000 people who have just taken refuge and the 8,000 newly recruited soldiers, how much can I do?" ”

Gongsun Yan was full of interest, leaned forward and said: "Eighty thousand people is not too much, but it is actually a lot to say less, the Shen Kingdom and Su Kingdom in the south of the Kingdom of Qiu, and the Zhongwu Kingdom in the west of the Liang Kingdom only have about 100,000 people. With 70,000 or 80,000 people in your hands, you are equivalent to the monarch of a small country! ”

Fang Li would look at the map in his spare time during this time in Chiyang, and he had already mastered the environment around Yu Country, and there were seven or eight countries smaller than Yu Country in this area, which could be described as a forest of princes, and a country would pop up in a palm-sized place, and it would be dazzling to stare at the map for a while.

Gongsun Yan continued: "Of course, it is obviously unrealistic to want to destroy a country with this newly recruited army alone. Even if it is a weak country like Zhong Wu and Su, it will take a lot of effort to destroy him. ”

Fang Li nodded, agreeing with this.

How to gain a foothold in this troubled era is the biggest problem facing Fang Li at present.

If it weren't for the fact that the Jin army was about to overwhelm the border, Fang Li could have been a loyal minister in the Yu State for two years first, strengthen his strength, and find an opportunity to establish himself as the king in the future, or even usurp power like Wang Mang.

Of course, in Fang Li's opinion, Yu Guo was so weak, he was sitting on a summoning system, and the talents he would have in the future were far from being comparable to Yu Guo; Even now, Zhou Yu, Zhang Liao, Liyi, Zhu Rong and others alone have surpassed the quality of Yu Guo, and there is no need to take the path of usurping power. As long as you have enough troops in your hands, you can put up a banner and stand on your own, and there is nothing you can do if you want to come to Yu Guo to take it yourself!

But because the Jin Kingdom was about to be overwhelmed by a large army, there were unknown variables in everything, so Fang Li was a little confused about the future, and he didn't have a clear goal for what to do next.

There are eggs under the nest, if the Yu Kingdom is destroyed, how can the 10,000 soldiers of Fang Li and Chiyang Pass be saved? How could the 80,000 people in Hedong return to Fang Li?

The Jin State is a superpower with 6 million people, 400,000 troops, and 5,000 chariots, and its strength far exceeds that of the Yu State.

If the Jin State is determined to destroy the Yu State, without foreign aid, the Yu State will almost be unable to escape the doom of destruction!

Even if Fang Li took Zhou Yu, Zhang Liao and others to join the Yu State camp, they would not be able to reverse the huge gap in strength between the two sides, after all, the Chong'er, Xianzhen and others of the Jin State were not fuel-efficient lamps!

"Now don't think about the destruction of other small countries, the entire Yu country is already a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, and it is difficult to protect itself!" Fang Li shook his head and smiled bitterly, "How to preserve my strength under the attack of the Jin Kingdom Iron Cavalry, let me have trouble sleeping!" ”

Gongsun Yan looked confident, touched the wine jug and poured it full for Fang Li, and said: "If the Yu Yu alliance had not been broken, it might have been able to last for a year and a half, but with Yu Xun's death, the relationship between Yu Yu and Yu deteriorated rapidly. If the Jin State comes to attack the Yu State, the Yu State is afraid that nine times out of ten, it will not send any more reinforcements. ”

Fang Li couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly after hearing this, wouldn't this mean that he had harmed Yu Guo?

If it is according to the normal trend of history, Yu Guo received the BMW and jade bi of the Jin State, sent troops to help the Jin State defeat Yu, and fought for two years before destroying the Yu State. In the end, the Jin army turned around and came back to attack the Yu State, and it took another year to destroy the Yu State.

Now that he has fooled Yu Xianggong into accepting the BMW and jade bi of the Jin Kingdom, and instigating Ji Yan to ask for a tricky woman, the Jin Kingdom will definitely not give up, doesn't it mean that he has caused the Yu Kingdom to perish two years ahead of schedule?

"If there is no reinforcement from other countries, the Yu State will be half a year late, and the Jin State will be destroyed in March soon!" Fang Li took a sip of the wine.

Gongsun Yan raised his glass to Fang Li: "Of course, everyone can understand this situation, Xianggong has already sent people to Korea and Wei to ask for help." ”

"Han, Wei?" Fang Li frowned, "Will they help us Yu Guo?" Even if the gang can fight the Jin Kingdom? ”

Gongsun Yan took a big sip of wine and said with a sly smile: "After the Jin State takes the Yu State and the Yu State, it will pose a threat to Korea, and Han Zhaohou may agree to our alliance." However, there was no conflict of interest between Wei and Jin, and Wei would never go to war with Jin for the sake of a small Yu state. ”

"Korea has a population of 3 million and an army of 1780,000, and if we can get reinforcements from the Koreans, we may be able to resist the invasion of the Jin Kingdom. It's just that South Korea doesn't share a border with our Yu country, and there is a country in between, which is a bit troublesome! Fang Li had completely fallen into contemplation at this moment, and his heart was almost broken for the fate of Yu Guo.

Gongsun Yan said: "So you can't save Yu Guo by relying on South Korea, if you want Yu Guo to survive this crisis, you can only count on Zhao Guo." ”

"Zhao Guo?" Fang Li frowned, "With the strength of the Zhao State, they can naturally wrestle with the Jin State, but will they offend the Jin State for our Yu State?" ”

Gongsun Yan said with a smile: "The alliances and hostilities of the princes of the world are all for the sake of interests, if the Jin State destroys Yu and Yu and extends its tentacles into the Central Plains, its strength will definitely increase greatly." This is bound to threaten the state of Zhao across the mountain, so the state of Zhao will never sit idly by and watch the Jin state use troops and remain indifferent. ”

"So I'm going to take a trip to Zhao for General Fang......"

Gongsun Yan got up and stretched his muscles as he spoke, emphasizing emphatically, "I'm talking about the general, not for the Yu country." My father-in-law Sun Yan is willing to go to Zhao for the general to ask for help, and persuade Zhao Yong to send troops to attack Jin and relieve the siege of Yu.

Once the war begins, the Jin State will inevitably storm Pinglu with heavy troops, and the people of the Yu State will be displaced and mourned all over the country. The general can take this opportunity to recruit refugees and expand his strength. ”

"What if the Jin army focuses on attacking Chiyang?" It's good to have a military advisor, if you don't understand something, you can ask for advice, Fang Li thought in his heart.

Gongsun Yan said: "If Chiyang hadn't exposed the flaws, most of the Jin army would have chosen to take Jiangguan and go straight to Pinglu, because this road has been smooth recently." Walking Chiyang is a mountain range with bumpy roads, which is not conducive to marching. ”

Fang Li pinched his chin and said, "General Meng Ming transferred two-thirds of the defenders of Chiyang Pass, originally wanting to lure the Jin army to attack Chiyang. But I recruited the people and disrupted his plan! ”

Gongsun Yan stood up, spread out a map, and began to speak at length: "So General Fang, you are safer in the ravine to the west, the Jin army has broken through Jiangguan and Pinglu, and the people are bound to flee westward on a large scale, and the general can just stand up and recruit refugees and expand his strength." ”

"Pinglu is only one hundred and twenty miles south to the border of the kingdom of Yu, and there is no danger to defend. After the Jin army conquered Pinglu, it would inevitably move south to attack the state of Qiu, and most of them would only divide the partial division to the west to crusade against the generals. As long as the general can resist this wave of offensive of the Jin army, the future can be expected! ”

Lest Fang Li not understand his plan, Gongsun Yan continued to elaborate: "When you carry the Jin army's partial division, the main force of the Jin State is likely to hit the Kingdom of Yu hard and open up the road to the south. At this time, the Jin army was already far away from the mainland, and it was a good time for the Zhao army to send troops.

Once the Zhao army crossed the Taihang Mountain to attack the Jin state, the Jin army was bound to retreat. At this time, Yu and Yu were already dying, and the general could lead his troops to receive the people of Yu and Yu and establish a new regime.

And along the road opened by the Jin State, he went south to annex the small states of Shen and Su, and formed a situation of encirclement of the north and south of the State of Yu, striving to integrate Yu, Yu, Shen and Su into one country. At that time, the general can dominate the world, and the retreat can dominate the side, and a new power will rise at the foot of Zhongtiao Mountain! ”
