Chapter 18 Doing it with a tough strategy

"General Qu, Lord Liu, what are you doing here?" Geng Wei woke up a lot at this time, but he was still a little drunk.

"I went with General Qu to inspect the situation in the barracks." Liu Yi looked at Geng Contempt a little worriedly, for fear that Geng Contempt would see something.

At this time, Geng was half drunk and half sober, and he had no suspicion of what Liu Yi and Qu Wei were doing.

"I see, then since Lord Liu has finished his inspection, let's go back to Hanyang City!" Geng shook his still drunken head.

"Okay, General Qu, then we'll go back and have time to drink together." Liu Yi hugged Qu Wei and looked at Geng Wei, who was a little unstable on the horse, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, this guy doesn't seem to have fully sobered up.

"Master Liu, let's go, let me know if there's something!" Qu Wei said to Liu Yi, who was on the horse, and at the same time glanced at Geng Wei to confirm that his head was indeed not sober.

Walking out of the barracks, several people were speechless all the way, Liu Yi also glanced at Geng Cong from time to time to see if he was awake, as for Geng Cong, he was still groggy and almost fell off the horse a few times.

When they arrived in Hanyang City, Liu Yi and Geng Cong said a few polite words, and then took Guan Yu and He Le and them back to a residence arranged for them by Geng Cong, this residence is located in the west of Hanyang City, it is not too shabby whether it is big or large, and the only bad thing is that it is far away from Taishou Mansion, which can also be seen Geng Contempt's attitude of not wanting Liu Yi to participate in Xiliang political affairs. It stands to reason that Liu Yi should live in Taishou Mansion, but Geng Cong excused Liu Yi from staying in Taishou Mansion on the grounds that Taishou Mansion was not as good as Liu Yi's current residence.

When they came to the new residence, Liu Yi, Guan Yu, and He Le immediately came to the room where Liu Yi lived, and the three of them began to discuss how to deal with Geng Cong and get the power.

"Second brother, master, I think we are somewhat sure of dealing with Geng Contempt now. I'm sure you can see what Qu Wei is looking for me to do. Liu Yi looked at Guan Yu and He Le, and he believed that they were smart people.

"Could it be that Qu Wei plans to support Big Brother?" Guan Yu asked puzzledly, he couldn't understand how Liu Yi and Qu Wei could give up their support for Geng Wei, who had followed him for many years, to support Liu Yi in terms of today's friendship.

"Yes, General Qu has decided to support me, but I think you must be wondering why General Qu supports me now, right? At first, I was skeptical that General Qu would be pretending, but then I figured it out a little. Liu Yi deliberately sold Guan Zi and didn't say it, he wanted to see if Guan Yu and He Le could guess it.

Guan Yu and He Le also saw that Liu Yi deliberately sold Guan Zi to let them guess it, so the two racked their brains to think about it, but they just couldn't guess what Qu Wei meant.

"Shu Guan Yu is stupid, I really can't guess anything!" Guan Yu bowed his hand to Liu Yi a little apologetically, and He Le was also full of apologies, they really couldn't guess anything, which disappointed Liu Yi.

"It's normal to not be able to guess, what are you doing with apologies on your faces, what's so sorry about this." Liu Yi looked at Guan Yu and He Le with apologetic faces with a smile, and Liu Yi also knew that they would definitely not be able to guess, after all, the gap between their thoughts was thousands of years, how could their elementary school culture be compared with Liu Yi, who graduated from college.

"I won't sell it anymore, let me tell you! In fact, you should think about this, although the Han family is now crumbling, but he is also a dynasty that has ruled for a hundred years, and it is difficult to erase it deeply into their hearts for the people, not only the people but also the ministers, they don't care how the Han family is or the Han family, no matter how the Han family is now, they are all foolish and loyal to the Han family, and Qu Wei happens to be such a person. I am the emperor's Xiliang Taishou, and Geng Cong is no longer so he will support me. After Liu Yi finished speaking, he looked at Guan Yu and He Le who had just woken up from a dream.

"The lord is far-sighted, and we can't compare!" He Le looked at Liu Yi with admiration.

"Big brother, it's really amazing, Guan Yu thinks he can't do it" Guan Yu also arched his hand in admiration.

Looking at the two people who admired him, Liu Yi was really embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "Master, the second brother doesn't have to admire me, the so-called each has its own advantages, master, you forging Liu Yi and I can't compare, and the second brother, your martial arts and vigilance I also think I am inferior, so I really have nothing to admire." After Liu Yi finished speaking, he glanced at the two, but what he didn't expect was that their admiration was deeper, and they admired Liu Yi's modesty.

Liu Yi looked at the two and shook his head helplessly.

"Alright, let's get down to business!" Liu Yi couldn't stand it anymore because of them.

"Yes, yes, it's important to get down to business." The two of them put away their admiring gazes, and suddenly became serious.

"Big brother, wouldn't it be better to directly find General Qu to transfer the army over and capture the Taishou Mansion?" Guan Yu looked at Liu Yi with full interest, he didn't have much fun killing horse thieves last time, and he still wanted to do a big job.

"This is impossible, now the army General Qu is not fully controlled, and more than half of it is in the hands of Geng Contempt." Liu Yi looked at Guan Yu helplessly, why didn't he want to do a big job to quickly solve Geng Contempt's uprising and prepare to deal with Han Sui and Ma Teng's uprising.

"Why don't we assassinate Geng with a musket!" He Le said and glanced at the shotgun hanging on the wall.

"It's only going to get messier!" Liu Yi still shook his head helplessly, how could he never have thought of shooting Geng Cong, but once Geng Cong was shot down, then the generals under him would be the first to think that he killed him, although they couldn't see how Liu Yi killed Geng Cong, but now there is only one person competing with Geng Cong, and that is him Liu Yi.

"That's not going to work, that's not going to work, what are we going to do?" Guan Yu was a little anxious, Geng Contempt would be in danger of being killed by Geng Contempt at any time if he didn't get rid of the power for a day.

"Let me think about it." Liu Yi rubbed his head vigorously with his hands, so that his head could be quicker to think of a way, but he hadn't seen Sun Tzu's Art of War, nor was it Guo Jiajia's Zhuge Liang, he really couldn't think of it, there was only one way in his mind, and that was to be hard.

"Whatever! Come hard, come hard! There is only one thing to succeed or fail with. Liu Yi secretly made up his mind at this time to fight hard, whether he died or lived, and looked at the sky.

"Second brother, master, I can't think of any way to outwit Geng Contempt, the only thing is to be tough," Liu Yi said with determination.

"Good! Come hard, come hard! I also asked the eldest brother to tell me the detailed plan. Guan Yu was full of fighting spirit at this time, although he was calm, he also liked to fight.

"Okay, let's arrange it like this, second brother, you go to General Qu to quietly transfer three hundred people into the city to hide, and then tell them to be on standby at any time, as long as there is an opportunity, we will attack Taishou Mansion, and among the other three hundred people, you find dozens of archery shooters who are better used to kill those who report the news, and when Geng Cong is controlled, we will quickly go to the military camp to kill Geng Cong's subordinates who are unaware, and then stabilize the army's morale." Liu Yi said his plan, and he was quite satisfied with this plan.

"Big brother is scheming, then let's take action." Guan Yu also thinks Liu Yi's plan is good.

"Okay, second brother, you go to General Qu to bring people into the city, and the master and I are waiting for you here." Liu Yi said.

"Big brother, be careful." After Guan Yu finished speaking, he got on his horse and went straight to the barracks.

"Master, I'm also going to give you a task." Liu Yi looked at He Le and said.

"My lord, please speak!" He Le arched his hand, he was afraid that there would be no task for him.

"I want you to make something out, and this thing will have a great development for us in the future." Liu Yi said a little excitedly.

"I don't know what it is?" Looking at Liu Yi, who was a little excited, he asked puzzled.

"It's called gunpowder." Liu Yi said it very excitedly. He had wanted to get the gunpowder out for a long time, and if he got the gunpowder out earlier, he would have been able to make something explosive even without iron and machinery.
