There are five things in the soldier's family, and the Tao of heaven and earth will be the law.

The same is true for the party raiders.

Liu Bowen's plan for the party's strategy is to analyze and weigh the five things of the soldiers, specifically, the right time, place and strategic preparation.

Except for the time when it cannot be controlled by manpower, the rest of the conditions have basically matured.

Geographical advantages. With a detailed map of the area around Mount Taiyue, you will have more options for sending troops. Taiyue Mountain, which lies between the Shangdang in Taiyuan, is no longer an insurmountable barrier, but can rely on Taiyue Mountain to confuse the Shangdang.

People and aspects. Although the three battles of Qixian, Yangqu and Jingcheng were carried out, the opponents were Zhang Yang and Yuan Shao, not the original forces of Taiyuan. Focusing on the policy of appeasement and comfort, the contradiction with the Taiyuan family was resolved, although some concessions were made in terms of interests, but in exchange for the stability of Taiyuan and the support of the family. In exchange, the government decree is unimpeded, the people's hearts are stable, and all industries are prosperous.

However, the morale of the whole army is unified, the morale is high, and the voice of reunification and merger of states is gradually rising, which is the so-called desire of the people and the desire of the army.

Strategy, Liu Bowen has already planned several sets of plans to attack the party,

As for the preparations, Taiyuan had sufficient grain and grass, and in the first battle of Jingcheng, a large amount of military funds in Jizhou were captured, which was enough to support the first battle of the party.

Of the five things of the soldiers, it is difficult to decide, and it is the time of day.

The time of day, simply put, is the choice of timing and time.

In ancient times, we chose the day to do things, and paid attention to divination. If that's all there is to it, it's simple, and Liu Bowen is a master in this area.

But that's far from it.

Taiyuan was pacified, and Liu Mang's army won a great victory. If calculated in terms of overall strength, Liu Mang's strength has far surpassed Zhang Yang. Even if the troops have to be stationed in Yanmen and Jingcheng, the troops that can be concentrated in Taiyuan are not weaker than those of Shangdang.

And Liu Mang's subordinates, the gathering of later generations of famous strategies and commanders, are far stronger than Zhang Yang.

Comparison of strength, judgment of advantages and disadvantages.

Then, the world is not only Taiyuan Shangdang, not to mention the entire Han territory, just the places closely related to the annexed states, the situation is complicated. We must fully consider the overall situation in order to win the greatest results at the lowest cost in this troubled world.

Liu Mang is leaning over several cases, facing the map of the Han Dynasty's territory, and listening to Liu Bowen's interpretation of the surrounding situation.

"At the turn of summer and autumn, the Huns were expelled by our army, and in a short period of time, they did not dare to invade the south, so they could be ignored for the time being. In the territory of the Han Dynasty, the surrounding states and counties are directly related to the Shangdang strategy. "Liu Bowen drew a big horseshoe shape on the map, surrounding Yanmen, Taiyuan and Shangdang, and surrounded the three counties." The western counties of Bingzhou, the Sili School Captain's Department, the northern part of Jingzhou, the four prefectures of Yanxu, Yuqing, and Jizhou and Youzhou may all have an impact on the Shangdang strategy. ”

"Yes." Liu Mang's fingers swept across the places in turn, and he was also very clear about the situation of these boundaries. "The western counties of the state were controlled by Lü Bu. Si Li is in the west, Feng Yi on the left, Fufeng on the right, and Jing Zhaoyin are controlled by Dong Zhuo. The two counties of Hedong and Hongnong in the central part of the division are mixed. To the east, Henan Yin was divided and occupied by the princes, and Hanoi County was controlled by Zhang Miao. ”

"Huh?" Liu Mang turned his head and asked Liu Bowen: "Mr. Berwen, will Yuan Shu in northern Jingzhou also have an impact on us?" ”

Liu Bowen nodded. "Although Yuan Highway will not cross the Yellow River to join the party, he is an important figure in influencing the surrounding situation."

Although Liu Mang's politics has just passed (political value 61), he is quite clear about the situation of the princes from all walks of life. "Although he and Yuan Benchu are brothers, I heard that this brother has a very unpleasant quarrel. Could it be that Mr. Berwyn has a way to separate the Yuan brothers and let Yuan Highway help us? ”

"It's a bit hard." Liu Bowen said with a smile. "However, we must use Yuan Highway to find a suitable fighter."

"With the help of Yuan Highway?" Liu Mang came to this era, and he had nothing to do with anyone. However, due to the influence of his thinking in his previous life, the two brothers he hated the most were Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu.

Hearing that Liu Bowen wanted to use Yuan Shu, Liu Mang was a little resistant. However, Liu Mang is becoming more and more mature and will not casually expose his likes and dislikes.

"Yes, it's not just Yuan Highway." Liu Bowen's hand drew a horseshoe ring again, "The surrounding Lu Bu, Dong Zhuo, Cao Cao, Er Yuan, Xuzhou Tao Qian, Beiping Gongsun Zhan, and even the forces of Liu Bei in the plains, we have to use them." ”

"What?" Liu Mang was a little dizzy.

Liu Bowen, what is this going to do? Although Liu Mang is not afraid of causing trouble, is it necessary to make such a big move?

"Hehe......" Liu Bowen's face bloomed with an obscene smile of an old slippery head. It's not that we want to make the movement bigger, but to take advantage of their nonsense, fish in troubled waters, and take down the party! ”

Hey?

"They're messing around, let's fish in troubled waters? It's kind of interesting! "Liu Mang's interest is here." Let's talk about it in detail. ”

"The only thing you owe is the time to go to the party."

Liu Mang naturally understands this. If the surrounding wives are flat, Jizhou Yuan Shao will inevitably meddle in the affairs of the party, the party is not a well, and another battle between the party and Jizhou will not have a good result.

Zhang Yang was attached to Yuan Shao, looking for an opportunity that Yuan Shao could not interfere with, that is, the time of day.

"Since the alliance of the princes of the sour jujube alliance to defeat Dong Zhuo, the surrounding heroes have been strong, fighting openly and secretly for their own interests, and the alliance of the princes of the Central Plains has collapsed. Even within the Dong Zhuo group, which controls the imperial court, there are cracks. We want to take advantage of the contradictions between the princes and seize the party when they are fighting each other and have no time to take care of it. ”

The relationship between Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu is breaking down, and Liu Mang knows it. But the relationship between the princes of the Central Plains is not very clear.

Liu Bowen pointed to the map and gave an explanation.

The northern, eastern and central parts of the Han Dynasty were divided by more than ten princes.

In Youzhou in the north, there are Youzhou Mu Liu Yu, Gongsun Zhan, and Gongsun Du, who occupies Liaodong and proclaims himself the Marquis of Liaodong.

Jizhou in the northeast is controlled by Yuan Shao, the pastor of Jizhou.

Si Li's school lieutenant department in the eastern part of Hanoi County, the original Chen Liutai guarded Zhang Miao.

Along the south bank of the Yellow River, from east to west, in order:

Kong Rong, the Beihai Xiang of Qingzhou, Tao Qian, the Thorn of Xuzhou, Liu Bei, the Xiang of the Qingzhou Plain, Cao Cao, the Taishou of the East County of Yanzhou, and Yuan Shu, the later general entrenched in the Nanyang area of northern Jingzhou.

These princes, except for Liu Yu and Gongsun Du in Liaodong, all participated in the Sour Jujube Alliance and were former allies.

However, with the collapse of the allied forces, the contradictions between these princes gradually emerged, and except for Liu Yu and Gongsun Du of Youzhou, the rest of the princes divided into two camps.

One camp, with Yuan Shao as the core, Cao Cao, Zhang Miao, and Shangdang Zhang Yang attached to Yuan Shao.

And Yuan Shu, Gongsun Zhan and Tao Qian formed another camp opposed to Yuan Shao, and Liu Bei's power was weak, because of Gongsun Zhan's relationship, he was coerced in it.

Only Beihai Kong Rong is relatively detached, outside the two camps, relatively speaking, he is closer to Tao Qian and others.

"Oh," Liu Mang somewhat understood, "Mr. Berwyn means that sooner or later these two camps will clash, and we will take the opportunity to fish in troubled waters?" ”
