Wu Zhao naturally wanted to give Lu Bu a face, lead a hundred cavalry, and explore the road in front. And Lu Bu led a hundred cavalry to follow behind the carriage, towards Fenyang County, and slowly left.

Since Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei arrived in Shangdang County, Liu Bei and Zhang Fei led 3,000 soldiers to Huguan County and stationed in Huguan, which is the only way for Hebei to enter Taiyuan, and Liu Bei was also here when he came. I am also quite familiar with this place, and I am also very satisfied with Wang Gang's arrangement.

Huguan can be said to be the closest place to Hebei in Bingzhou, and if Bingzhou cannot be defended, they can return to Youzhou from Huguan. At this time, he thought all the way, and he didn't understand why Wang Gang arranged it like this. Normal people will deliberately arrange their Youzhou troops away from Youzhou, but Wang Gang arranged them to be the closest place to Youzhou, as if to tell Liu Bei, you can leave at any time, look, I didn't stop you.

Today I received a letter from Shangdang County Taishou Xi Zhicai, asking him to go to the eldest son to discuss the military, after all, Liu Bei still has the title of the chief envoy of the Zhenbei General's Mansion, so he took Zhang Fei to the eldest son county, because the eldest son county is located in the Jinnan Basin, where the snow is much smaller, and the snow can no longer be seen on the road and in the fields, only a touch of white can barely be seen behind the mountain.

When they arrived at the city gate of the eldest son, Xi Zhicai and Guan Yu were already waiting at the city gate, and there was a middle-aged scribe next to them. After several people greeted each other, Xi Zhicai spoke.

"This is Yingchuan Xun Yu, Xun Wenruo. It was the envoy of General Anton's mansion, and later General Anton was promoted to the general of Zhenbei, but he still only led Yulu and did not contribute, you are all the envoys of the general's mansion, you should be closer and closer," Xi Zhicai said with a smile.

"After Liu Bei, King Jing of Zhongshan, the word Xuande, thanks to the love of General Zhenbei, licked as the general's envoy. I also asked Chief Xun to give me a lot of advice, "Liu Bei heard that it was Yingchuan Xun's family, and naturally had the heart to win over." However, he also knew that his chief envoy was also a name, and he could not be compared with Xun Yu's chief envoy at all.

"Envoy Liu laughed, let's go to the barracks first" Xun Yu didn't take this stubble at all, King Jing of Zhongshan, more than a hundred sons, who knows whether it is true or false, and how can anyone introduce his background at the beginning, Xun Yu feels that Liu Bei cannot be deeply acquainted.

Liu Bei smiled awkwardly, and several people came to the big tent of the barracks, and there was a map on the low table, which was painted with various colors.

Xi Zhicai invited a few people to sit down before speaking.

"Although the general did not order us to send troops, he did not prohibit us from sending troops, I think the general meant to let us improvise, I wonder if the two envoys agree"

Xun Yu nodded and said, "The general should mean this, why is it too guarded and wants to use soldiers?"

But Liu Bei was shocked in his heart, this drama is talented and can be a private soldier, and he said that it was acquiesced by General Zhenbei. I think that when he was in Youzhou, Liu Yu attached great importance to military power.

"What does Envoy Liu mean?"

Xi Zhicai saw that Liu Bei didn't speak, and asked again.

"Since both of them think it's okay, Bei naturally won't object, but I don't know where Taishou wants to use troops."

"Hebei, Hedong"

Both of them were stunned, and they were divided into two ways, isn't it too risky.

"Since a big war is indispensable next year, instead of passively defending, it is better to take the initiative to attack, and it also solves the dilemma of Shangdang being besieged on three sides, what do you think?"

Regarding the strategic level, Liu Bei is obviously lacking, and he doesn't dare to talk nonsense at the moment.

"I think Hebei is still holding its troops, does Zhicai understand the true meaning of the general's Tuntian in the Jinzhong Plain?"

"Zhenbei General Tuntian Jinzhong, didn't he bring in the Xiongnu. Then a fire was burned, I have to say, this is a good strategy," Lu Bu replied.

Xi Zhicai looked at Xun Yu, but saw Xun Yu shaking his head slightly.

Immediately understood Xun Yu's meaning, "Fortunately, the two envoys reminded me that I almost missed the general's major event, and this Hebei land will not move first, so as not to cause complications." When the time comes, lead the Hebei Yellow Turban Army and the Huns into the Jinzhong Plain, and then we will close the door and fight the dogs."

Xi Zhicai laughed twice and said.

Liu Bei was also quite proud, although Wang Gang's strategy was a bit vicious, it was definitely a good strategy, and it was impossible for the Huns not to be fooled. I saw that I could catch a few big fish.

Xun Yu saw the drama and understood what he meant, so he didn't remind him anymore, and said slowly.

"Shangdang to the east of the river is separated by the Taihang Mountains, and the only way to go is to go to the Taihang Eight Mountains. If you don't think about it first, you can only go to the south of Sanshan. They are Yiguan, Taihang, and Baicheng. Zhicai wants to take Yiguan and follow Qinshui into Hanoi, and then take a detour to Hedong County."

Xun Yu only said that, because this is the nearest road, and there is a way to keep the grain road in the rear unblocked.

Xi Zhicai shook his head and said: "It's good to go to Qinshui, but no, if you go to Qinshui in Hanoi County, you have to pass the Tianjing Pass, and the Tianjing Pass is not in our hands, so it is easy to startle the snake." ”

Xun Yu suddenly became a little confused, he had just come to the party, and he was still on the map and literature for the party.

"Where to go?"

Xi Zhicai pointed to a place in the upper reaches of Qinshui and said.

"Qinshui starts from Yangtou Mountain in the north, stretches for hundreds of miles from north to south, and finally enters Hanoi and enters the Yellow River, most of which are in Shangdang County, bringing tens of thousands of acres of fertile land to Shangdang County. There is also a small part in Hanoi County, but here it is an exception"

Xun Yu looked at Xi Zhicai's hand, and sure enough, Qinshui was crooked, and he made a turn fifty miles southeast of the county seat of the Shaanxi family and entered Hedong County, but he drew a small half circle in Hedong County, and returned to Shangdang County in Yang'a County.

If it weren't for Xi Zhicai's deliberate finger, Xun Yu would have thought that Qinshui had always been in Shangdang County, and Xi Zhicai saw Xun Yu's puzzlement, so he explained with a smile.

"This is Qinyang Mountain, Qinshui was blocked by the mountain here, so it detoured to the south, passed Qinyang Mountain, and went back again, into Yang'a County, at that time I sent Liu Pi and Guan Hai to garrison the two counties, but also to prevent the Yellow Turban in the east of the river from entering Shangdang through Qinshui, but now it seems that the Yellow Turban Army should not be clear, there is a river here, which can cross thousands of meters of high mountains"

Xun Shuang looked at the place where Qinshui turned, if he simply looked at the map, he couldn't see what the reason was, Qinshui was like a naughty child, jumping out and back.

"What is the terrain like after the water passes, have you ever seen it?"

"No, I heard from the hunters nearby that there is a mountain road that leads to Xiangling County," Xi Zhicai shook his head and said.

"The army is pulling, if you are not familiar with the terrain, it is easy to lose your way, the mountain road is difficult to travel, and you have to cross the river, this road is still too dangerous" Xun Yu felt a little risky.

"I'm going to check it out in person, and Shangdang County will ask the two envoys," Xi Zhicai finished speaking, bowing and saluting.

"This is a little inappropriate, in case of a mistake, what should I do" Xun Yu hurriedly persuaded.

"I have already thought that if Xiangling is captured, it will be equivalent to going straight into the hinterland of the Yellow Turbans, and the Yellow Turban Army will no longer pose a threat to Hexi County, and the Yellow Turbans will face encirclement and suppression from all sides, and it is only a matter of time before they perish."

Even Xun Yu has to admit that Xi Zhicai's strategy is indeed very clever, but it is too dangerous. I wanted to persuade again, but I heard Liu Bei say.

"My second brother Guan Yu is cautious and strong in martial arts, but he can go with the drama Taishou and ensure his safety"
