Huangfu Song smiled and motioned for Zhang Xiu to sit down, but then Huangfu Song asked again: "Does Bo Yuan have a plan to help Ben break the thief?" However, it was Huangfu Song who successfully recruited Zhang Xiu into the army and asked Zhang Xiu as the general of the left chariot cavalry, but he was not as talented.

Zhang Xiu pondered for a moment and said, "Lord Huangfu wants to break the Qiang people before the change of generals in the imperial court, it is difficult. ”

Huangfu Song frowned and said: "What Fang Cai Boyuan said is very reasonable, but I know the shortcomings of our army and the strengths of the enemy army. ”

Zhang Xiu said: "What the embroidery party just said is only people, and the way of war still has the right time and place. Lord Huangfu is handsome, and the thieves on the battle array are talking about these three things, and this is when the spring flowers are blooming, it is very difficult to help our army break the thieves by relying on the time. If you talk about the geographical advantage, Guanzhong is fertile for thousands of miles, it is the place where the Xiliang cavalry gallops across the country, most of our army is infantry, if it is not according to the size of the county town and defend, I am afraid that at this time the Xiliang army has already surrounded Chang'an. And the way of the people and the embroidery has been with the Emperor Fu to detail the shortcomings of our army, and the Qiang people are just rebellious, morale is rainbow, it is really difficult to break. ”

Huangfu Song was silent after hearing this, it is indeed Zhang Xiu's words are reasonable, for the commander to lead the army to fight, if the military strength is not as good as others, it is about the right time and place, now the two are not zhan, the military strength is inferior to the enemy, and it can be regarded as a famous handsome to ensure an invincible and undefeated situation.

After thinking about it, Huangfu Song sighed: "It's not that the sky doesn't help the big Han, the yellow scarf is just flat, and the Qiang people are opposed, this is a sign of the death of the country." ”

Zhang Xiu saw that Huangfu Song was like this, and sighed, this old minister at the end of the Han Dynasty can indeed be said to be loyal to the Han court, but unfortunately the decline of the Han Dynasty is not the cause of one emperor and one emperor, but it has been planted when the Eastern Han Dynasty first saw it, and it can be said that it can continue to this day It can be said that it is the result of the efforts of a group of loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty.

Zhang Xiu really couldn't bear to feel sad about the old man in front of him, so he said: "Lord Huangfu and rest assured, although the Qiang people are strong, but my Han can also break the thief, but I am afraid that it will not be broken in the hands of Lord Huangfu." ”

After hearing this, Huangfu Song's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Do you have a plan to break the thief?" ”

Zhang Xiu smiled and nodded, and said: "Lord Huangfu is handsome, only the way to break the thief, and there are still three strategies to break the Qiang people." ”

Huangfu Song hurriedly asked, "Will the plan be released?" ”

Zhang Xiu raised a finger and said, "The first strategy is the way of a strategist." ”

Huangfu Song asked anxiously, "What is the way of a strategist?" ”

Zhang Xiu picked up the wine cup, took a sip, and continued: "If a strategist wants to make a plan to break the thief, it lies in the "between". Embroidered Wen Qiang people handsome Bian Zhang, Han Suishi was coerced by Beigong Boyu and Li Wenhou, and now the Qiang people are booming, and it is difficult to achieve a plan to discord. But if the battle situation is hanging, Xiliang is a frontier, there is very little food, and the Qiang people can't capture Sanfu to get grain for the army, so they will inevitably be in chaos, and then supplemented by divisive tactics, so that Bian Zhang, Han Sui and Beigong Boyu, Li Wenhou and other civil strife, the Qiang people will not attack themselves. At that time, the Han army will choose the right time to attack, and it will be able to break the Xiliangqiang people, but this plan is very slow, and I am afraid that the emperor Fu will not be able to use this plan when he is replaced by the imperial court. ”

After hearing this, Huangfu Song nodded and said: "That's true, the court likes the unfavorable war situation the most, change the commander instead, and there are many villains in the court, and it will be difficult to protect the general himself if he goes into slander." ”

Zhang Xiu smiled and said: "My own words are too much, if the rain is zero, but I need the Emperor Fu to deter the small and stabilize the Han, so the Emperor Fu himself is easy to protect." ”

Huangfu Song nodded a little lonely, and was silent for a while, but just now Hu Zhen listened with relish, and saw that Zhang Xiu was silent, and hurriedly asked: "Bo Yuan Fang just said that there are three strategies, and now there is only one policy, and there are still two strategies?" ”

Zhang Xiu raised a second finger and said, "The second strategy is the general's strategy." The so-called general's policy, said that it is a fighting general, call me a strong general of the Han Dynasty's martial arts, pick the Qiang generals, but must win a hundred battles, and the Qiang people's morale will be destroyed for a long time, and then the army will attack the Qiang people under the leadership of dozens of generals, and the Qiang people will also break their courage, which may be a victory, but I am afraid that there will be a lot of losses. ”

After listening to this, Huangfu Song said: "Bo Yuan's words are reasonable, the general is the courage of the soldiers, and the Qiang people will be brave enough to break themselves, but the generals of this general Dou Huang Turban do not dare to say that they are nine out of ten, don't say that they are Qiang people, and now the generals can say that they can defeat the Qiang people in a hundred battles, I am afraid that Bo Yuan is alone, so this plan is difficult to implement." ”

Huangfu Song's words did not surprise Zhang Xiu, if there were many fierce generals who emerged in the late Han Dynasty under the command of Huangfu Song, there would be no need to worry so much about the Qiang people, and there would be no need to be too much, as far as the current army is concerned, call Guan Yu and Zhang Fei; Lü Bu and Zhang Liao in Bingzhou; Jiangdong Sun Jian and his subordinates, plus themselves, such a lineup, repeatedly picked out the Qiang generals and then broke them with a large army, so that the Qiang people could be driven back to Xiliang, and then the army would be divided again, and the chaos would only be destroyed in the hands of the hand.

However, in the eyes of those scholars and eunuchs in the imperial court, it is impossible to do it, so Zhang Xiu did not mention it.

At this time, Hu Zhen asked again: "Bo Yuan will say the last word. ”

Zhang Xiu's expression froze, and then said: "The last strategy is the emperor's strategy." ”

After hearing this, Huangfu Song hurriedly shouted: "Bo Yuan." ”

Zhang Xiu greeted him with a smile and said: "In fact, it is a strategy to dedicate to today's holy thieves, why do you look so good." ”

After hearing this, Huangfu Song looked at Zhang Xiu with a somewhat strange expression, and then sighed and said, "Bo Yuan, come here." ”

Zhang Xiu dipped his fingers in some wine and drew on the case, and said: "This strategy can be described as a battle to settle the West Liang. With the army of Lord Huangfu dragging the Qiang army in Guanzhong. Then with the other two armies of exterminating the Yellow Turbans, they entered Hanzhong from Jingzhou, and the soldiers in Hanzhong were divided into two routes, all the way out of Qishan, attacking Tianshui, and cutting off the back road of the Qiang people. The army was divided into three routes, and the troops went out of Chencang, Sanguan, and Xiegu to attack the flank of the Qiang people, and then the army of the Emperor Fu attacked to the west, and the north of the Qiang people was the Yellow River. If this Qiang people are surrounded by our Han army on all sides, they only hold the big camp and wait for their food to run out, and their army will collapse by itself. When the Qiang people are encircled, Dong Zhuo can lead the army to cross the Yellow River to attack the cities of Liangzhou, if the Qiang people can break through the siege and have no home, then only the three armies will come out, and the West Liang can be determined. ”

As soon as Zhang Xiu's words came out, Huangfu Song and Hu Zhen both gasped at the same time, and it took a long time for Hu Zhen to squeeze out two words from between his teeth: "Awesome." ”

Huangfu Song also nodded, and said: "This strategy is really the emperor's policy, and only today's saints have the ability to use it, but it's a pity that ......" The words were not finished, only turned into a sigh.

Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "My lord, don't sigh here, the soldiers are still waiting for the adults to lead the expedition." ”

Huangfu Song smiled bitterly and said: "Now I will know the strategy to break the enemy, but I can't use it, but I feel a little unhappy." After speaking, he shook his head, stood up, and said: "Bo Yuan, Wen Cai, you two should pack up and wait for the general camp tomorrow." ”

Zhang Xiu and Hu Zhen responded in unison: "No." ”
