In October of the fourth year of Jian'an, Yuan Shu wanted to go north to join Yuan Shao.

Ignoring everyone's advice, Cao Cao decided to order Liu Bei to go to Xuzhou to intercept Yuan Shu so that he would not be allowed to go north to join Yuan Shao. Although Guo Jiaxunyu and others dissuaded him, Cao Cao had already made up his mind. However, Cao Cao left Chen Qi and Chen Deng's father and son in Xudu and did not let them leave with Liu Bei.

Chen Deng was also quite helpless about this.

But in front of Cao Cao, he didn't dare to show the slightest dissatisfaction.

At the same time, Yuan Shao increased his troops in Liyang and eyed Henan......

As for the situation in Liaodong, it was no longer important to Yuan Shao. As long as Cao Cao is defeated, the crisis in Liaodong will be resolved with a raised hand.

Yuan Shao didn't put Liu Chuang in his eyes, but it doesn't mean that everyone will be like this.

Frustrated to Yuan Shaojian again, Liu Chuang should be solved as much as possible.

"Uncle Liu Huang is now taking Liaodong, but his foothold is not stable.

If you don't eradicate it, it will be a trouble for the Lord's henchmen. ”

Liu Chuang's surprise attack on Liaodong prompted Fu Zhi to make up his mind to get rid of Liu Chuang.

However, Yuan Shao disagreed, "Gong and worried, Chuang Er will occupy Liaodong, what can I do?"

Liaodong is a bitter cold land, and the population is sparse, which is not enough to succeed. If I want to eradicate it, but it is just a matter of raising my hands, why should I worry? Now Meng De is in Xudu, full of wings, and his momentum has been achieved. If you don't defeat it, it's the real trouble.

When I defeat Mengde, I will take Liaodong without much effort.

Not to mention, with Zhong Jian controlling this person in Liaoxi, what kind of storm can he toss? ”

Feng Ji immediately agreed: "What the lord said is very true, that Chuang er is just a clown who jumps off the beam, and Mr. Gong and Mr. really think too highly of this person."

Although he occupies Liaodong and captures Gongsun Du, what big thing can he achieve?

I have a plan, but I don't need to spend a single soldier on the lord to make his vitality hurt......"

"Oh?"

"Although Gongsun Du is a prisoner of Uncle Liu's ranks. However, his son Gongsun Kang still sits on Xi'an Ping and will never be killed.

The general only needed a letter to make Fu Yuguo and the Goguryeo people send troops to help, and then made General Chunyu contain Su Muyan, then Liu Chuang was attacked on three sides, and even if he won, his vitality was greatly damaged. If this is the case, he will not be able to integrate Liaodong, and he will be in trouble with his henchmen? ”

Feng Ji's words made Yuan Shao stroke his palms and laugh.

He nodded repeatedly. agreed, and then said to Fu Zhu: "Gonghe, don't worry about Liu Chuang anymore, wait for me to defeat Cao Cao." It will be subdued. ”

Speaking of this, it is difficult to say anything more.

Looking at the proud Feng Ji, he sighed in his heart: If Uncle Liu Huang is really so easy to deal with, why can he escape from Cao Cao?

But he could not say these things explicitly.

After the farewell came out of the general's mansion. Frustrated, he went straight to Tian Feng's house.

After telling Tian Feng what he said in the General's Mansion and Yuan Shao today, Tian Feng was suddenly silent.

Cao Cao is a tiger, is Liu Chuang a sheep?

In Tian Feng's opinion, Liu Chuang is a poisonous snake and a vicious wolf. It may not seem as powerful as Cao Cao, but the threat is greater than Cao Cao's.

"Gonghe, why don't I persuade the lord again?"

Frustrated shook his head. "Yuan Haoxiu is boring to talk about himself, the general has made up his mind, and if he persuades again, he will be implicated.

The general is stubborn and self-serving, since he has made a decision. How can we tolerate counsel...... To be honest, I'm not worried about Liu Chuang. Thinking that although Liu Chuang won Liaodong, it was still difficult to threaten the lord. I'm worried now that the lord's temperament is now only afraid that he will be taken advantage of by Cao Cao...... I'm going to Liyang to supervise the battle from now on, and what I'm worried about is Yuan Hao. You have a strong temperament and are unwilling to back down, and if you offend your lord, you will inevitably be imprisoned. Therefore, please be more careful in the future, and don't be blindly strong. ”

Tian Feng smiled and did not answer.

After a while, he said softly: "If you are in the Bohai Sea today, it is no longer suitable. ”

"Oh?"

"Although he is doing his best in Bohai, he is Uncle Liu Huang's father-in-law after all.

The last time he sent troops to Gushui, it was also a major factor in the turmoil in Youzhou. If he is allowed to stay in Bohai County again, I am afraid that there will be another dispute. ”

"And what do you want?"

"The Southern Huns are now ready to move, and Lou Annoyance Karasuma has repeatedly made trouble.

The talent of the high cadres is not enough to deter the aliens, I want to ask the lord to worship his friends if he is the general of the Huns, and the Wuyuan County is too guarded, what do you think? ”

After all, Xun Chen's reputation is too high, and he is a representative of the Yingchuan Shi clan.

Even if he is as tough as Tian Feng and Frustrated, he is also quite afraid of Xun Chen.

Hearing Tian Feng say this, he was a little moved.

That's right, Bohai County is too close to Liaoxi, and Liu Chuang has a naval army in his hands, and he can land in Bohai County at any time, which is really a trouble.

"This is the best policy, but after all, the five plains are a bitter cold place, let you go to suffer from the wind, in case there is a mistake, isn't it your fault and mine?"

Tian Feng closed his eyes and also showed embarrassment.

He has a good relationship with Xun Chen, although the two are now a little estranged because of Liu Chuang's matter, but it is indeed a bit too much to drive Xun Chen to merge with the state.

"When a husband does things, he has to look ahead and look backwards.

If I have a good friendship with a friend, it is a personal friendship; However, my food and loyalty, and personal friendship can only be put aside. If my friends blame me, I have no complaints. If he really made a mistake, I, Tian Feng, will compensate him with this life, which can be regarded as the completion of this friendship. ”

Seeing that Tian Feng was so determined, he couldn't help but sigh lightly in his heart.

"If Yuan Hao is determined to do so, I will no longer stop it.

However, if you do this, please leave Yecheng as well. ”

"Huh?"

"You said that if you lose your life, Xin Ping Xin Bi and others will forgive you?

If you drive Youruo to Wuyuan, it will be like a complete break with the Yingchuan clan...... I believe that Xin Zhongzhi and they will never give up with you.

Therefore, if you are really determined to let Youruo go to Wuyuan, please also leave Yecheng, otherwise you will be killed. ”

Tian Feng was silent!

After a while, he said in a deep voice: "I will consider this matter, please don't worry." ”

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

It's snowing again!

The winter of the fourth year of Jian'an seems to be extremely cold.

After a violent first snowstorm, there was another heavy snowfall in October.

Liu Chuang arrived in Xiangping in early October. Just in time for this heavy snowfall. After the heavy snowfall, the roads are more difficult to navigate, and the roads in many places are blocked by heavy snow, and vehicles can no longer drive. This also made Gongsun Kang, who was originally going to send troops in Xi'anping, have to give up his original plan. After all, the trouble caused by this heavy snow is not only for Liu Chuang, but also for Gongsun Kang.

After the heavy snow blocked the road, it was difficult for the car to move.

The art of war is cloudy: the soldiers and horses have not moved. Grain and grass come first.

If Gongsun Kang wants to use troops against Liu Chuang, this grain and grass must be followed up in time.

Even if the Liaodong soldiers and horses under his command are used to this kind of weather, they still want to use soldiers. The same has to face the trouble of transportation......

In contrast, Tai Shi Ci built a high city wall in Xinchang and made a posture of holding out. In this case, if you want to attack, Gongsun Kang must also be cautious.

However, Liu Chuang did not feel relaxed because of this.

The more so. The more it indicates that there will be a fierce battle to come.

After Liu Chuang arrived in Xiangping, he immediately ordered Wei Yan Pang De to speed up the integration and surrender of troops.

After capturing Xiangping, Liu Chuang surrendered 30,000 soldiers to Liaodong.

But in Liu Chuang's opinion, 30,000 soldiers sound amazing, but in fact, their combat effectiveness is low. It can't be compared with the Han army that entered the Liao at all.

Therefore, he ordered the integration of the soldiers, leaving only the young and strong to train.

At the same time, Gongsun Du has accumulated wealth over the years. It was also all obtained by Liu Chuang.

I don't know if I don't know it, although Liaodong is bitterly cold, but the wealth of the Gongsun clan is extremely amazing.

Gongsun Du alone hoarded 50 grains and grass in six granges in Xiangping County. One is three thousand hundreds, that is, three thousand stones of grain and grass. It's just a hoard of grain in Xiangping Grange. It was enough to supply Liu Chuang's army with sufficient food and wages. Liu Chuang didn't understand that this Gongsun Du had hoarded so much grain. What exactly is the intention? But no matter what, in the end, this lot of grain and grass is still cheaper than Liu Chuang.

Liu Chuang immediately ordered to open a warehouse and release grain to appease the people of Xiangping.

There was not much grain released, and there were only three in total, but these three grains were enough to eliminate the panic and tension of 80,000 Xiangping people.

After opening the warehouse and releasing grain, Xiangping soon resumed the hustle and bustle of the past.

"Gongsun Kang will not attack for the time being due to weather conditions.

But as soon as the weather improves, he will inevitably make a move...... As far as I know, he has sent people to the city of Susheng Bone to communicate with Goguryeo, and once he and the Goguryeo people have negotiated, Liaodong will inevitably be attacked from both sides. Therefore, we must not take it lightly. ”

Liu Chuang stood up and wandered the hall.

The charcoal in the fire pit was blazing, crackling from time to time.

"Kong Ming, can you think about how to deal with the next trouble?"

Zhuge Liang had previously attacked Xiangping because of Su Muyan's help.

Now, if you want to repeat the old tricks and surprise Goguryeo and Xi'anping, I am afraid it will be difficult to succeed. Not to mention the heavy snow blocking the road, it is very difficult to surprise these hundreds of miles. Not to mention, Zhuge Liang has already attacked once, how could Gongsun Kang not be on guard?

"Brother, Ryo has been thinking about this all along.

Liang thought that instead of sitting back and watching Gongsun Kang and the Goguryeo people attack, it was better to take the initiative to attack. ”

"Active attack?"

Liu Chuang suddenly found that his thinking couldn't keep up with Zhuge Liang.

Not only was he a little confused, but Yan Rou, Lu Zhu, Chen Qun, and Chen Jiao were also a little dazed.

"Kong Ming, you have to think clearly, whether it is attacking Susheng Bone City or attacking Xi'an Ping, the journey of hundreds of miles is not a joke.

Not to mention that the Goguryeo people and Xi'an Ping's troops are above us, this day is cold and freezing, and it is difficult for heavy vehicles to travel, I am afraid it is an extremely difficult matter to solve. I think that in the current situation, we should stick to it instead of taking the initiative...... Otherwise, it is difficult to win. ”

Bu Qi is also a wise man, and he also highly respects Zhuge Liang.

But at this time, he also had to stand up and oppose Zhuge Liang's almost risky death.

Liu Chuang looked at Zhuge Liang, with a look of doubt in his eyes.

Zhuge Liang smiled: "Brother, Mr. Zishan, I know you will think that I am a little carried away after experiencing the victory of Xiangping.

In fact, this battle is inevitable.

Our soldiers and horses have not been integrated, is it possible that Gongsun Kang is ready?

Now all counties in eastern Liaodong, including Lelang and Xuansu County, have not reacted, just to see our next move. If Gongsun Kang takes the initiative to attack, the counties will definitely be shaken. My brother said that if the battle against Liaodong is to end this winter, how can he sit and wait for the arrival of fighters in Xiangping? As for the long way and the road is difficult, I have an idea that it will not work wonders. ”

"Oh?"

Zhuge Liang stood up and said loudly: "Brother, what season is it?" ”

Liu Chuang said: "It's October, and the cold winter has arrived. ”

"Hehe, brother should know that this Liaodong is not like the Central Plains.

If you are in the Central Plains, although it is a little cold at this time, it is not unbearable. But in Liaodong, now the outside of the house is already dripping into ice.

I have a plan, and I ordered General Ziyi to lead his troops to attack Xinchang, march fifty miles a day, and build a city.

Xinchang set off to Xi'anping, less than 800 miles. If there are 16 cities in the past 800 miles of the road, what a shock it will have to Xinchang. I thought that I was afraid that without waiting for General Ziyi's soldiers and horses to arrive, Xi'an Ping would collapse without a fight. ”

"Slowly, slowly...... Kong Ming, do you mean to build a city in one day? ”

Bu Qi and Chen Qun felt that their heads were a little unresponsive, and they showed a look of horror.

Liu Chuang's eyes lit up, and after glancing at Yan Rou, he showed a touch of joy......

They seem to understand what Zhuge Liang means.

"Kong Ming, you mean ice and snow build a city?"

"Not bad!"

Zhuge Liang spoke, straightening his waist even more.

"My brother is so good that he can guess my thoughts."

Bu Qi looked at Liu Chuang suspiciously, and he didn't quite understand what he meant.

Liu Chuang nodded slightly, his eyes showing appreciation.

There is such a story in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms": Cao Cao and Ma Chao fought a decisive battle in Weishui, and Cao Cao found that his camp was dilapidated and difficult to resist Ma Chao's offensive. A hermit named Lou Gui, who lived in seclusion in Zhongnan Mountain, visited Cao Cao and offered the method of watering and freezing the city.

This Lou Gui is indeed a person in history.

However, I don't know if it's Mengmei Jushi, and it's not clear whether it was watered and built the city.

But he was indeed a general under Cao Cao, but he was later killed because of his inappropriate words and offended Cao Cao.

The weather in Liaodong at this time is far colder than Weishui.

Especially after dark, it is even colder.

Zhuge Liang has already said that this is dripping into ice, which is by no means an exaggeration.

If this plan can really be implemented, not to mention one city a day, it is one city in three days, and Liu Chuang can accept it.

Just imagine, on the road from Xinchang to Xi'an Ping, if more than ten cities appeared in one month, what a terrifying thing it would be.

For the people of this age, this is like a miracle.

At that time, the soldiers and horses of the Han army did not need to make a big move, and the Liaodong army would be discouraged and demoralized......

After listening to Liu Chuang's explanation, the three of them looked at Zhuge Liang's gaze, and suddenly looked a little strange.

Childe often says that Kong is wise and almost like a demon.

I didn't think it before, but when I look at it now, the three of them have a thought in their hearts: This guy is really a demon!
