Chapter 410: Radical General's Law
In the first year of the first peace, the Central Plains was in turmoil, and Gongsun Du coveted the Central Plains, and ordered Liu Yi to cross the sea to collect Donglai Counties, and worship the history of Yingzhou Thorn.
Later, Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shao, pacified Hebei, sent Zhang Liao to recover the coastal area of Qingzhou, and expelled Liu Yi, and the Liaodong army has always been angry about this.
This time he went to Qingzhou, Liu Yi made a military order to Gongsun Kang, not to take Qingzhou, never to return to his hometown, and vowed to win a place for the lord in the Central Plains, so that he could return to his hometown.
This time with Jiangdong to join forces to capture Qingzhou, the two armies from the north and south, seeing to take Qingzhou, but Tian Yu blocked in the Beihai, it was difficult to enter for a while.
At the time of the confrontation, Tan Ma reported that Qingzhou Assassin Shi Cheng was happy to attack the Wu army, the former army was defeated, and he was gathering troops to take revenge.
Liu Yi discussed with Gongsun Yang, who joined the army: "Cheng Xi first started a war with Eastern Wu, obviously regarded it as a strong enemy, and did not take us in his eyes. ”
Gongsun Yang said: "There is still Tian Yu in Beihai to defend the city, this person is brave and good at fighting, knows the art of war, Xianbei and Wuhuan are not his opponents, and there is no need to risk sending troops." Now Sun Cao is stumbling and fighting, there will be an injury, why don't the generals sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight? ”
This Gongsun Yang is the nephew of the Gongsun Du clan, followed the Gongsun Du to the Central Plains, quite trusted, and also learned a lot of the art of war, Gongsun Du pacified Liaodong, conquered Goguryeo, offered advice many times, was promoted to join the army, after Gongsun Kang succeeded to the throne, worship the army and sacrifice wine, and Liu Yi took the Central Plains together.
"That's a good thing!" Liu Yi suddenly woke up, ordered the troops to be collected, appeased the people's hearts, and reported the Qingzhou war to Gongsun Kang.
was sending people to inquire about the battle ahead, and suddenly the defenders came to report, and Zhou Yu sent Liu Zheng to deliver a book.
Gongsun Yang said: "If it is an ordinary letter, where can Liu Zheng be asked to send it in person?" This must be that Zhou Yu wants to ask the general to send troops to attack Beihai, and the general only needs to be false and ask him to send troops with all his might. ”
Liu Yi ordered someone to invite Liu Zheng in, and the two sides had already met in Liaodong, exchanged greetings, accepted Zhou Yu's letter, and invited him into the hall to set up a banquet for hospitality.
Liu Yi clenched his fists and said: "I heard that the Wu army has won a big victory in Anqiu, which is gratifying. ”
Liu Zheng said with a smile: "Cheng Xi only sent a partial division to the enemy, and he inevitably despised no one in Jiangdong. ”
Liu Yi smiled faintly, opened the letter and finished reading it, and said: "Since my lord has an appointment with Wu Hou in advance, and the governor of the capital fights against Cheng Xi, how can he sit idly by?" Mr. replied to Zhou Dudu with confidence that he would attack Beihai with all his might. ”
Liu Zheng said: "The governor of the capital knew that the general valued the most faithfulness and righteousness, and he would definitely send troops, so there was no need to reply. This summer, Hou Dun has rushed to the same time, and he has been specially ordered to come down to help the general, so as to break through the Beihai Sea as soon as possible, stabilize Qingzhou, and calmly face the enemy. ”
Liu Yi's face sank, and he said unhappily: "A certain Mr. Su Zhi is quite brave and heroic, but the soldiers and horses in Liaodong, we have our own strategies against the enemy, and we dare not bother Mr. to obey." ”
Liu Zhengyan said: "The governor of the capital also knows that the general is the general of Liaodong, who has been invincible for many years, but the people of the Central Plains are outstanding and spiritual, not comparable to Liaodong, and they are afraid of Tian Yu's bravery, so they dare not act rashly, and they take the initiative to invite Ying to come to help in the war." ”
"Presumptuous!" Liu Yi said coldly: "Zhou Dudu is really afraid of Tian Yuhu? If he can defeat Cheng Xi, he will definitely be able to break through Beihai. ”
Liu Zheng hugged his fists and said: "There is no offense in the Xia, because the general was defeated by Zhang Liao back then, and Tian Yuzhi's ability is no less than Zhang Wenyuan......"
Bang –
Liu Yi was furious, slapped the case, and said sharply: "Back then, Zhang Liao was just a surprise attack, if you go head-to-head, why be afraid?" This time I came to the Central Plains, and I was about to kill Xuchang and confront this thief, and I was ashamed. ”
Liu Zhengyan said: "It turns out that the general has such ambitions, but he is too careful. However, the governor of Zhou and the general agreed to divide Qingzhou, if our army defeated Cheng Xi, but the general could not capture Beihai, the governor of the capital will lead the troops to take it, and then do not blame the governor of Zhou for stealing the merits. ”
Liu Yi laughed and said: "Sir, don't worry, this time I went to Qingzhou to respond to my lord's annexation of Hebei, and Beihai is already in the bag, how can I not take it?" ”
Liu Zheng nodded and said: "Now that the two armies have formed an alliance, they should work together to break the enemy, and they are just joking!" You and I also had a lot of friendship in Xiangping in the past, if the general was defeated by Tian Yu and could not break the city, he would come to help the war first, and he would not embarrass the general. ”
Liu Yi was displeased and said: "Thank you Mr. for your kindness, when Cheng Xi is defeated, if he can't break the city, he is willing to give up Beihai." ”
Liu Zheng hugged his fists and said: "The general is worthy of being a famous general in Liaodong, and this kind of courage is really broken, and there is a witness from Lao Gongsun Junshi." ”
"This ...... The confrontation between the two armies, the major affairs of the country, how can it be such a child's play? Gongsun Yang saw that Liu Yi was betting against Liu Zheng, and hurriedly made a secret look.
But Liu Yi turned a blind eye, drew his sword and cut off a case, and said loudly: "The husband has made a word, and the horse is difficult to chase, if you violate this oath, there will be such a case, and the corpse will not be complete." ”
Liu Zheng hurriedly stopped Liu Yi: "I know that the general is full of words, how can I not believe it?" In the future, Cao Cao will also rely on the majesty of the general. ”
Liu Yi laughed, invited Liu Zheng to re-enter the table, drank several rounds, and did not dare to delay due to the urgent military situation, Liu Zheng first said goodbye and left.
After Liu Zheng left, Gongsun Yang paused and said: "This must be Zhou Yu's method of agitating generals, and the generals are the best of the generals!" ”
Liu Yi smiled coldly and said: "Humane Zhou Lang has excellent wisdom, and now it is nothing more than that, how can such a small plan be concealed from the general?" ”
Gongsun Yang was puzzled: "In this case, why did the general want to bet against Liu Zheng?" ”
Liu Yi said: "The Qingzhou army is exhausted, and there are only a few thousand defenders in Beihai, so it is easy to take something, so why not send him a personal favor?" ”
Gongsun Yang sighed: "Tian Yu is a veteran of a long war, there is a degree of advance and retreat, the siege of the city requires several times the number of troops, the equipment is sufficient, now our army is far away, if it closes the city and defends itself, what strategy should be used to take the city?" ”
Liu Yi said with a smile: "Don't worry about the military, a certain has its own countermeasures, leading Tian Yu out of the city, it is not difficult to break it!" ”
Gongsun Yang frowned and said, "I'm afraid that Tian Yu will not be tricked." ”
Liu Yi said unhappily: "We came across the sea, how much food did we cost, and we have the high hopes of the lord, if we can't even take the small Beihai, how can we talk about entering Hebei?" Even if Zhang Wenyuan is here, a certain one is broken, not to mention Tian Yuhu? ”
Liu Zheng returned to the army to report, Zhou Yu said with a smile: "Although this Liu Yi has some strategy, it is difficult to escape the fame. ”
Liu Zheng said worriedly: "Previously, someone from Liaodong came to report that Cao Pi sent someone to crown Gongsun Kang, worship him as the lord of Liaodong, and order him to counterattack us. ”
Zhou Yu said: "Don't worry, sir, if Cheng Xiruo and Tian Yu guard the Beihai together, and wait for the support of Xiahoudun's army, I want to cooperate sincerely with Liu Yi, and now he takes the initiative to send troops, which is tantamount to giving up Qingzhou." I expect that Liu Yi will not be Tianyu's opponent, and when the Liaodong Army is heavily damaged, I can take Qingzhou, calmly confront Xiahoudun, base myself on the Central Plains, and respond to Wu Houyi! ”
Liu Zheng was puzzled: "Xiahou is a famous general of the Cao family, wouldn't it be better to unite with Liu Yi?" ”
Zhou Yu shook his head and said: "Mr. Fang Cai also said that Gongsun Kang's intentions are unpredictable, and the heart of guarding against people is indispensable, and now the main forces of Cao's army are all in Guanzhong and the Central Plains, and Xiahou is often defeated, so why be afraid?" ”
During the discussion, the Ma came to report, Cheng Xi took 30,000 horses to take revenge, and there were only a few thousand defenders left in Beihai, leaving Tian Yu to guard.
Zhou Yu was not worried but rejoiced: "The elite of Beihai is exhausted, and Liu Yi will definitely attack the city with all his might." ”
