Chapter 324: Advice and Conspiracy
"He didn't move, let me sweep the Black Mountain as soon as possible? Is this shíme? Command? Does this Cao Apu know whether he is inferior or not? Pointing fingers at me, it really makes no sense! ”
After receiving the battle report on the Eastern Front, Yuan Shao jumped like thunder.
What made him angry was not that Cao Cao had suffered a defeat, but that the Jizhou army had also suffered a miserable defeat in the Battle of Longcuo. It's not that zìjǐ is too incompetent, but that the enemy is too cunning, and excuses like these are not the preserve of later generations.
rúguǒ Cao Cao's banner was victorious, and Wang Yu was defeated, so Yuan Shaocai really wanted to be angry because of this, and he wanted to try to draw back his allies and stumble.
Cao Cao used Lu Kuang's troops as cannon fodder, and such a trivial matter of heavy casualties would not be a reason for Yuan Shao to be angry. Anyway, they are just miscellaneous soldiers, and the Lu Kuang brothers are not his descendants, so it would have been a very cost-effective thing to exchange such sacrifices for Cao Cao and Liu Dai's reinforcements.
What really annoyed Yuan Shao was Cao Cao's self-assertion.
The Eastern Front does not seek a quick victory, but it is necessary to create enough pressure to contain Wang Yu, and wait for the main force of Jizhou to withdraw from the war against Montenegro, encircle on all sides, and completely eliminate the main force of Qingzhou, which is the overall strategy proposed by Yuan Shao after the alliance was reached.
To be honest, after this series of battles in Hebei, Yuan Shao was a little scared of being tossed. Rather than knocking Wang Yu back, cutting off the connection between Youzhou and Qingzhou, and breaking the alliance between the two, Yuan Shao was more willing to fight a decisive battle and take advantage of the alliance to completely eliminate Wang Yu.
Fight quickly, not protracted.
So, the instructions he gave to the Eastern Front were. You can fight a decisive battle, but you must keep pressing. So that Wang Yu can not retreat, the necessary shíhòu. It can even attack Qingzhou.
Liu Dai was in the same interest as him, Cao Cao was his subordinate, and Yuan Shao felt that Zìjǐ's command was very wise and not inappropriate. The staff of Jizhou were accustomed to speaking according to the will of the lord, so naturally they would not remind him, so when Cao Cao showed his intention to do his own thing, the evil fire in Yuan Shao's heart rose suddenly.
Yuan Shao was furious, and all the staff members were silent. Neither dare to persuade nor scold people according to his words.
Cao Cao is not what it used to be, he now has tens of thousands of troops, and his territory is not small, after Jizhou even suffered a setback, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a division of courts. When people came to help, it was to take the overall situation into account, but it was not purely out of admiration and admiration for the Yuan family, and they refused to obey Yuan Shao's orders. Desperately with Wang Yu, taking chestnuts from the fire in Jizhou, and there is a shíme can be qíguài?
Add fuel to the fire and follow the words of the lord? That's next. Bacheng is going to send an envoy to Cao Ying to question, and maybe he will have to reprimand the other party. But in the current situation, is there room for that score?
made Cao Cao anxious. In a fit of rage, he walked away. That's blind.
I can't say it, but when I get to shíhòu, I always have to ease up guānxì. Isn't the person who scolds the most fiercely and annoys Cao Cao the most the best sincerity?
No one wants to be taken as sincere by the lord, and naturally he will not mess around.
As for the analysis of the pros and cons of disobeying the lord, this kind of thing is not something that smart people should do, but fortunately, there are also such fools in the shogunate, and these smart people just need to make a fortune and watch the excitement with a cold eye.
"The lord is angry."
As everyone expected, Fu Zhu stood up, and in his usual style, he advised: "Wang Pengju's use of soldiers is out of the blue, and his scheming is indeed not to be underestimated. Since the war situation on the Eastern Front is still unclear, it is better to maintain the stability of the front than to rush into the army, and not let him have the opportunity to take advantage of the gap. ”
"Don't let him take advantage of the gap?" Yuan Shao's anger finally had a clear goal to vent, and he turned to Frustration, and his glaring gaze saw the enemy of the Immortals, or he mistook Frustration for Cao Cao or Wang Yu.
"I spread the word to the world, the alliance is strong, the four sides responded, and gathered more than 100,000 troops? The result? Wang Yu entangled more than 10,000 rabbles with thousands of soldiers and horses, and he was invincible in Hebei? The Eastern Front has gathered more than 50,000 troops, all of which are strong troops, but they can't help him, so they can only maintain a defensive position, what is the reason? ”
The staff's heads hung lower, and there was shíme on the floor as if they were delving into, making them so oblivious that they couldn't look up.
As a qualified bureaucrat, you must remain calm and take it in stride in the face of the anger of those in charge, the so-called thunderous fury. It's useless to be reasonable, and the best way to get out of it is not to get involved.
"Those who achieve great things are not informal, and endure the anger of the moment, for the sake of the overall situation in the future." Only Fu Zhu didn't understand this truth, and still persuaded him bitterly.
"At present, the Qinghe River and the plains are managed by Wang Pengju like an iron bucket, and there are no flaws, and the Qingzhou army is strong and brave, and it is difficult for the heroes to plunder its front, and they rush into the army, I am afraid that they will be broken by each one. Or wait for the army to turn in, surround on all sides, and put down a dignified array, why can't you retreat? If he still does not know how to advance or retreat, he is only vain and brave, and he should be captured by the lord. ”
What he said could not be described as méiyǒu truth, when Chu and Han competed for power, including Liu Bang, the generals of the Han army were also beaten by Xiang Yu. In the final battle, it was with the help of Liu Bang's delay on the frontal battlefield that he gathered the world's heroes and gave Xiang Yu a fatal blow.
In a way, the current situation in Hebei is similar to that time. Taking a step back and reluctantly acting will do bad. To zhīdào, Cao Cao is not Han Xin, and Liu Dai is not Yingbu, so he doesn't have to act completely according to Yuan Shao's instructions. Send a letter to explain in detail, even if it is very face-to-face, if you puncture this layer of paper, it will only be scattered in two.
"Humph!" Yuan Shao snorted angrily, and although he didn't answer for a while, judging from his face, he was obviously more angry.
he
But méiyǒu Cao Cao's city government is also not his relatives, and the bitter advice in his eyes is just a face-to-face confrontation regardless of dignity and inferiority.
After sorting out his words, Yuan Shao asked: "Gonghe, do you think that we will form an alliance and make a huge battle, and in the end it is just to force the king and thief to retreat?" In your eyes, this alliance is just for help? ”
It's not a call for help. What else could it be? Why did Liu Dai, Cao Cao and Cao Cao come? Aren't you worried that Wang Yu will take Jizhou, and your lips will be cold?
It's a call for help!
But. No matter how upright his temperament is, he will not remove this fig leaf. The sky is big. is bigger than the face of the lord, and exposing him will not help, it will only make him angry and make things more and more out of control.
In fact, Fu Zhu believed that as long as the alliance could achieve the goal of forcing Wang Yu back and recovering all the lost territories in Hebei, it would be enough. With the conditions of Jizhou, the next step is to work steadily and recuperate. It will soon be possible to regain strength and regain its superiority.
Qingzhou bìjìng is too small, too biased, congenitally insufficient, no matter how to toss, it is not kěnéng tossed to Jizhou's head. As for Youzhou, not to mention, there are congenital problems, and internal and external troubles. With enemies on all sides, as long as the two sides are cut off, there is nothing to fear.
The frontal battlefield has been lost, but in the end it can win the world. This is the most precious jīngyàn left by Chu and Han Zhengxiong to posterity.
Fu Zhu believes that his opponent thinks the same way, otherwise he would not be in such an unfavorable situation. is still fighting endlessly, looking for it. Desperately build fighters.
He didn't retreat, not because he couldn't get in the way. When he faced the Bingzhou Iron Cavalry in Mengjin, Wang Yu retreated very decisively. The reason why he didn't retreat was because he was very qīngchǔ, and the bottom difference of Qingzhou was far inferior to Jizhou, so he couldn't let Jizhou develop calmly, let alone watch Gongsun Chan be wiped out.
These truths have been hinted at by Yuan Shao more than once, but the latter can't listen to them, even if he has foresight, what can he do?
"Actually, what General Cao said is not unreasonable, if our army can solve the Black Mountain Army as soon as possible and rush to the battlefield, it will also be a good strategy." Guo Tu Tūrán interjected.
Guo Tu's voice did not fall, and Xu You, who had always been not very good at dealing with him, also echoed: "Yes, instead of talking about shíme here, it is better to seize the opportunity as soon as possible." The reason why Cao Mengde was rude was because the lord was not there, and when the lord led 100,000 tigers to the battlefield on the eastern front, Cao Mengde was a junior, and he dared to be disrespectful? If this continues, I'm afraid the prestige of the lord will also be damaged! ”
"Reasonable......" At the beginning of these two people, all the staff members observed the words and looks, and saw Yuan Shao's face, and they all found the right direction at the moment, and they echoed it.
The war with Montenegro has always been frustrated by command and dispatch, and he has not been able to make contributions for a long time, and the responsibility is of course on him. After the defeat of Longcuo, the situation in Jizhou was critical, and Yuan Shao had to use many civil and military forces led by the Jizhou faction, and most of the military power in Jizhou had fallen into the hands of the Jizhou faction, and the momentum of the foreign faction was dealt a major blow.
Now that the situation is improving, with the alliance of the heroes, how can Guo Tu and the others not seize the opportunity to make a comeback?
"Gongyou, what do you think?" Guo Tu and Xu Yu deserved to be masters of patting horses, and they diverted Yuan Shao's attention at once, Yuan Shao didn't care about getting angry, but put the pressure on Frustration.
"This ...... I'm afraid it's a bit difficult. Frustrated with a bitter face.
If there is kěnéng, how can he not solve the Montenegrin army as soon as possible, the problem is, if he wants to achieve this goal, it is not ordinarily difficult, because the opponent is Zhang Yan!
The Yellow Turban Army was originally a rogue, especially after the first wave of uprisings led by the Zhang Jiao brothers was suppressed, the survivors accumulated a large number of anti-encirclement and suppression jīngyàn in the battle with the official army, and they had great experience in mobile warfare.
And Zhang Yan is one of the best, Feiyan among the thieves who are good at wandering!
It was very róngyì to defeat him, the Montenegrin army was a rabble, saying that it was an army of 100,000, but the soldiers with serious weapons in their hands were not even 10,000. Most people just hold wooden sticks, kitchen knives and the like, and fight head-on, how can kěnéng be the opponent of the well-armed Jizhou army?
But under the leadership of this person, 100,000 black mountains are like a group of rats, scurrying around, making people unable to catch up and can't be surrounded, so they can only look at the dust and sigh, crying out in vain.
Throughout the ages, there have been countless teams that have come out of the Taihang Mountains, all of whom are masters of guerrilla warfare, and Zhang Yan is one of the pioneers.
In the face of such an opponent, Fu Zhu could only be patient, narrowing the opponent's space to move, forcing the opponent to choose between retreating to Taihang Mountain and being surrounded.
Originally, he was close to success, but he forced Zhang Yan to the north of Xiangguo, and with a little more effort, he could force the other party back to the mountains. As a result, I don't know what Zhang Yan thought, Tūrán turned around and headed east, and got headlong into the mainland in the south of Julu County!
Continental Ze is one of the relics left by the diversion of the ancient Yellow River, it is a dìfāng where the terrain of lakes and swamps coexists, the terrain is complex, the area is wide, although there are many people in the Black Mountain Army, there is quite a lot of room to hide in.
In such a dìfāng, encircling and suppressing Zhang Yan, a master of mobile warfare, what can we talk about? Rao is frustrated with outstanding wisdom and scheming, but he can't do it for a while.
"Therefore, Gong He, if you can't make meritorious contributions, don't hinder others, let alone hinder the lord's plan because of selfishness."
Xu You stabbed with a gun and a stick, then turned around, arched his hand to Yuan Shao, and said, "Lord, over there...... You yǐjīng is connected, as long as the lord nods, let alone Zhang Yan, he can be captured, even if Wang Yu is a thief and retreats, he can't be tolerated. ”
Yuan Shao bowed slightly, obviously quite moved, pondered for a moment, and suddenly raised his head, with a resolute look in his eyes: "Since this is the case......"
Frustrated, he lost his voice and said, "Think twice, lord!" ”
