"Yun Chang, this heart of harm is indispensable, and the heart of defense is indispensable. What's more, soldiers are a major matter of the country, a place of death and life, and a way of survival, which must not be overlooked. ”

"As a general, we have to anticipate the next possible move of our allies and be vigilant."

"Commanders and commanders of the army, not just act with faith, wisdom, faith, benevolence, bravery, and strictness are indispensable, there will be five dangers, and the soldiers will have six defeats, you must remember."

Lu Zhi's teachings in the past are vividly in his ears, which makes Guan Yu remember it in his heart.

However, even if he was as experienced as Lu Zhi, he did not expect Sun Jian to withdraw his troops under that circumstances.

In troubled times.

Allies, the most untrustworthy!

After experiencing so many things, Guan Yu gradually agreed with Zheng Ping's strategy: the world is bustling, all for profit; The world is crowded, all for profit.

If you want to avoid Zhang Miao's secret fornication with Yuan Shu, you have to give Zhang Miao benefits that he can't refuse.

And the history of Yanzhou assassination is the benefit that Guan Yu prepared for Zhang Miao and cannot refuse!

Why did Zhang Miao confront Liu Dai?

Chen Deng and Zhang Hong have carefully analyzed the reasons for this.

The world is in turmoil, and heroes are rising.

Zhang Miao has thousands of miles of people and sits on the land of four wars.

If you take care of the sword, you can also divide one side, how can you be willing to be controlled by others?

Based on Chen Deng and Zhang Hong's analysis of Zhang Miao, and seeing Chen Gong go south, Guan Yu had the idea of letting Zhang Miao or the person recommended by Zhang Miao be the assassin of Yanzhou.

Only by giving Zhang Miao the benefits that he can't refuse, will Zhang Miao really break off the alliance with Yuan Shu.

Guan Yu can also deal with Yuan Shu of Fengqiu City with all his might!

Chen Gong's eyes when he looked at Guan Yu were even more surprised.

"Use the Yanzhou Thorn History to lure Meng Zhuo, is this really something that a commander can come up with?"

"Looking at Chen Yuanlong and Zhang Zigang's reactions, this is not an idea that was born in advance, but Guan Yu came up with it temporarily."

"Because I have a close relationship with Meng Zhuo, I'm going to let me lobby Meng Zhuo?"

"Under Liu Bei, there are not only wise and resourceful people like Chen Yuanlong and Zhang Zigang, but also extraordinary generals like Guan Yu, you can't be an enemy easily!"

"And in Linzi City, Zheng Xianmou, who is thousands of miles away, but can control the general trend of the world, is me who underestimates Liu Bei and the people of the world."

Since ancient times, there is no first, and there is no second, but all great talents will not be easily convinced.

Chen Gong has great talents, and he is a wealthy family in Yanzhou, so he will naturally have the conceit of great talents.

But now, after seeing the civil and military forces under Liu Bei, Chen Gong put away his contempt.

Although except for Guan Yu, Zhang Hong and Chen Deng, the rest such as Zhang Fei, Lu Yi, Tai Shici, and Tian Yu did not speak.

But the fact that these four people can participate in such an important military discussion will not be too bad in terms of status and talent.

Those who can participate in the discussion with Guan Yu, Zhang Hong, and Chen Deng, how can they not have special talents?

There are so many outstanding people under the command of Qingzhou Mu!

After sighing with emotion, Chen Gong took a deep breath and said, "Although I don't know Meng Zhuo's intentions, I will try my best!" ”

Chen Gong did not stay in Yangxia City, but followed You Heng to Chen Liucheng after a hurried meal.

"Second brother, do you really want Zhang Miao to recommend someone to be the assassin of Yanzhou?" Zhang Fei endured it for a long time, and expressed the doubts in his heart: "Why isn't it the second brother that you come to be the assassin of Yanzhou?" ”

"In this way, the eldest brother is in Qingzhou, the second brother is in Yanzhou, Tao Tingshi and Chen Wang are friendly with me, and after defeating Yuan, you can raise the power of the four states to ask Dong Zhuo again!"

Guan Yu shook his head: "Yide, the situation in Yanzhou is complicated, and the eldest brother can't interfere yet." ”

"If the eldest brother sits on the land of Qingyan and the two states, it is equivalent to breaking the balance, even if Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu have a feud, they may join forces because of this."

"Even if it is the history of Tao Thorn who has formed an alliance with Qingzhou, he will definitely not be happy in his heart."

Zhang Fei was stunned: "Could it be that Tao Thorn History will still betray the alliance?" ”

Zhang Hong said: "Xuzhou is the southern gateway of Qingzhou, if someone slanders in front of Tao Thorn History, saying that the king takes General Guan as the pastor of Yanzhou, and intends to annex the world." The next step will be to annex Xuzhou and let Yide be the assassin of Xuzhou. ”

"Yide thinks, will Tao Thorn Shi be jealous of the envoy because of this?"

Zhang Fei wanted to speak and stopped.

Although Tao Qian is now an ally, no one can say for sure whether Tao Qian will betray the alliance because of other interests.

After all, Yuan Shu was also an ally of Qingzhou before betraying the alliance.

When Guan Yu became the assassin of Yanzhou and the Qing Yan were one, would Tao Qian really be unscrupulous?

Chen Deng admired: "General Guan's plan is very clever. ”

"Zhang Miao already has a dislike for Yuan Shao, if the person recommended by Zhang Miao becomes the assassin of Yanzhou, Yuan Shao's power in Yanzhou will be expelled by Zhang Miao."

"And Qingzhou and Yanzhou will also conclude an alliance because of their common interests, and Qingzhou's territory will be more stable than Liu Dai's assassination of Yanzhou."

"Although Yuan Shao was born in the Yuan family of the fourth and third princes of Runan, and there are many protégés and former officials, as long as Yuan Shao's pace of annexing states and counties is curbed, Qingzhou will have enough time to make up for the gap in family history!"

Guan Yu stroked his beautiful hair: "Guan is just following Mr. Xianmou, so that the person in charge of Yanzhou is more beneficial to Qingzhou." ”

The crowd laughed.

Guan Yu is the assassin of Yanzhou, which will make Liu Bei the target of public criticism because of this.

But if you take Yanzhou's assassination history as a favor, it will be beneficial and harmless to Qingzhou.

When Chen Gong told Zhang Miao about Guan Yu's proposal, Zhang Miao was so shocked that he stood up: "Gongtai, is this true?" Guan Yu really said that? Can he represent Liu Qingzhou? ”

Zhang Miao's tone was a little hurried.

Although you can't be the history of Yanzhou assassination, you can recommend your best friend to be the history of Yanzhou assassination!

As long as the interests are the same, there is no difference in essence whether Zhang Miao is the assassin of Yanzhou or not.

Just like Yuan Shu is a native of Runan, he can't be the assassin of Yuzhou, but he can recommend Sun Jian to be the assassin of Yuzhou.

As for the Yuzhou Mu of King Chen and Liu Pet, Dong Zhuo deliberately came to disgust Yuan Shu!

Propriety?

The fierce people who abolished the young emperor, killed the young emperor, slept on the dragon bed, and occupied the concubines, would follow this kind of rule?

But Dong Zhuo did not follow the rules, and the ministers of the Kanto region could not disobey the rules.

Chen Gong nodded and said, "Guan Yu is Liu Qingzhou's brother-in-law, since he has spoken, it is impossible to break his promise." Otherwise, this is ruining Liu Qingzhou's name of benevolence and righteousness, and the gains outweigh the losses. ”

"What's more, if you give Meng Zhuo a favor, this Yanzhou will be friendly with Qingzhou in the future, which is beneficial and harmless to Qingzhou."

"On the contrary, if Liu Dai continues to be the assassin of Yanzhou, I am afraid that even Liu Qingzhou is worried that Liu Dai will cause chaos in Qingzhou."

"After all, the money and grain that Yanzhou originally wanted to aid Qingzhou have not been sent to Qingzhou because of Liu Dai, and Liu Qingzhou must have complaints about Liu Dai."

Zhang Miao became excited, and walked away from the seat and said: "Liu Dai, I think that if I make a marriage agreement with Yuan Shao, I can show off my power in Yanzhou." ”

"It's not enough to kill Qiao Mao, Zheng Sui, Cui Yan and others, they still want to kill Ying Shao and me, how can they be qualified to take charge of Yanzhou?"

"I intend to let Guangling Zang Ziyuan be the assassin of Yanzhou, what does Gongtai think?"

Chen Gong said awe-inspiringly: "Guangling Zang Ziyuan is a person of integrity, and he is quite proficient in administrative education, rewards and punishments. ”

"If Zang Ziyuan is allowed to be the assassin of Yanzhou, it will definitely be a blessing for Yanzhou!"

Zhang Miao laughed, and his tone became cold: "Since this is the case, then there is no need for Yuan Shu to let him stay in Yanzhou." I immediately sent someone to inform Chen to stay at all the passes to welcome Guan Yu's soldiers and horses north. ”

"Break Yuan Shu first, and then destroy Liu Dai!"

"In addition, during the period when Ling went south, Meng De also sent troops from Dongwuyang."

"Yuan Shao recommended Meng De to be the Taishou of Dongjun and ordered him to send troops to attack the Black Mountain thief Baihuan."

"You first go back to Puyang to rectify the civil and military affairs, and welcome Meng De into Dongjun."

"If the Black Mountain thief is broken, Yuan Shu will have no reinforcements in Fengqiu City."

Chen Gong was taken aback: "Cao Mengde became the Taishou of Dongjun, will he support Zang Ziyuan as the assassin of Yanzhou?" ”

Zhang Miao was silent for a moment, and said in a condensed voice: "Don't worry! I'll convince Mende. There can no longer be people installed by Yuan Shao in Yanzhou to take charge of the military and government. ”

"After repelling Yuan, Shanyang County will guard Yuan and Jiyin County will have to be expelled."

"Otherwise, it will be difficult for Yanzhou to be stable!"

Seeing that Zhang Miao had a decision, Chen Gong no longer persuaded him.

Zhang Miao, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were originally old acquaintances and old friends, but because Zhang Miao and Yuan Shao had a conflict, Cao Cao has been trying his best to mediate.

Whether he can persuade Cao Cao to support Zang Hong as the assassin of Yanzhou, Chen Gong can only believe in Zhang Miao.

Chen Gong asked You Heng to return to Chen to inform Guan Yu and the others, and then returned to Puyang alone to meet Cao Cao.

Cao Cao has been fighting in Dongwuyang for a long time, and he has been waiting for this opportunity.

After receiving Yuan Shao's order, Cao Cao exhausted his soldiers and horses in Dongwuyang and marched overnight to Puyang City.

By the time Chen Gong returned, Cao Cao had already been stationed in Puyang City for two days.

As soon as he heard that Chen Gong of Dongjun County had returned, Cao Cao hurriedly drove to see Chen Palace, and the courtesy was quite thoughtful.

Looking at Zhang Miao's face, Chen Gong was also very polite to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao also introduced Xun Yu and Xi Zhicai to Chen Gong.

Seeing that Xun Yu, who was from Yingchuan Xun and had the name of Wang Zuo, also joined Cao Cao's command, Chen Gong couldn't help but be surprised by three points in his eyes.

With Xun Yu's family background, fame and talent, he would choose Cao Cao instead of Yuan Shao!

As soon as he talked to Xun Yu and Xi Zhicai, the arrogance in Chen Gong's heart was reduced by three points.

I was amazed by Zheng Ping's strategy because of the arrival of You Heng, but I was shocked by the strategy of Chen Deng and Zhang Hong, two talented people, and was shocked by Guan Yu's strategy in Yangxia City.

Now that he has met Xun Yu and Xi Zhicai, two Yingchuan Junjie, Chen Gong can't be proud even if he wants to!

When Chen Gong mentioned that Guan Yu and others in Chen State would lead troops north to use troops with Yuan Shu, Cao Cao's fine eyes were obviously more surprised: "Yuan Shu knew that Guan Yu and others were in Chen State, how could he not send people to contain them?" ”

Chen Gong said: "Yuan Shu originally asked his general Sun Jian to lead the army to attack Chen State, but because Liu Biao invaded Nanyang, Sun Jian was transferred back to resist Liu Biao, and Guan Yu's strategists Chen Deng and Zhang Hong also saw through Yuan Shu's suspicious tactics. ”

Cao Cao was taken aback: "I don't know where this Chen Deng and Zhang Hong are the wise men?" ”

Chen Gongdao: "Zhang Hongzi Zigang, a native of Guangling County, responded to Liu Qingzhou's search for talent together with Pengcheng Zhang Zhao Zhang Zibu, Langya Zhao Yu and Zhao Yuanda. ”

"Zhang Zibu and Zhao Yuanda are good at internal affairs and stayed in Linzi City, while Zhang Zigang is good at military strategy and internal affairs, and has concurrently served as a marching military advisor since he followed Liu Qingzhou's righteous brother Zhang Fei south."

"Chen Dengzi Yuanlong, a native of Xiapi, is the son of Peixiang Chen Qi and the captain of Xuzhou, who is also good at military strategy, this time he went to Chen Guo to help Guan Yu in the name of vacation."

Cao Cao was both surprised and envious: "Under Liu Xuande, there are already so many civil and military heroes?" ”

Chen Gong also introduced Tai Shici, Lu Yi, and Tian Yu under Guan Yu one by one.

Hearing that Liu Bei was only in Chen Guo to help Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Tai Shici, Lu Yi, Tian Yu, Zhang Hong, and Chen Deng, Cao Cao's envy in his heart was even greater.

Although Cao Cao already had Xun Yu and Xi Zhicai to help, as well as Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Xuan, Cao Ren, Cao Honglejin, Han Hao, Li Dian and others as his minions, this did not affect Cao Cao's envy of Liu Bei's talents.

"We have to defeat the Black Mountain thief Bai Huan as soon as possible, and then go to Fengqiu City."

"Although Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Tai Shi Ci and others are now following Liu Bei, as long as I am gracious, he may not be able to let these civil and military heroes choose the master in the future!"

Cao Cao pondered secretly.

For the heart of seeking talent, Cao Cao thought that he would not be inferior to anyone, even Wang Zuozhicai Xun Yu was willing to give up Yuan Shao to serve himself, and it was not impossible for a few of Liu Bei's subordinates to give up Liu Bei.

"Zhicai, immediately formulate a strategy to defeat Bai Huan!" Cao Cao suddenly burst out with pride: "Yuan Shubing has many generals, and General Guan is difficult to support alone, so I have to go to help after defeating Bai Huan!" ”

Xi Zhicai has been with Cao Cao for a long time, and he has already guessed Cao Cao's thoughts, and said without thinking: "The Black Mountain thief is fierce and good at group combat, and Bai Huan is also a person who knows the art of war, so he can't be careless and underestimate the enemy." ”

"But the weaknesses of the Black Mountain thieves are the same as the Yellow Turban thieves in the past, even if they go out on the expedition, they don't forget to bring their families, and the families of these thieves are easy to be confused when they encounter surprise attacks!"

"If you want to break the Black Mountain thief, you can follow Sun Bin's plan to kill Pang Juan in the past, attack and harass the family of the Black Mountain thief first, and then wait for work at the dangerous point of the white return soldier, so that the thief can be broken!"

If Xi Zhicai was under Liu Bei's command, this kind of strategy of attacking the families of the Black Mountain thieves would never have worked.

Whether it is for self-protection or for the family to survive, as long as the Black Mountain thief picks up the knife, he is a thief and an enemy.

You live or die, each according to his ability.

But most of the families of the Black Mountain thieves are old, weak, women and children, these people are poor and homeless who can't survive, and they don't have the ability to kill people with knives.

Let Liu Bei drive his troops to kill a group of unarmed old and weak women and children, Liu Bei can't do it.

But whether it is Cao Cao or Xun Yu Chen Gong, they all appreciate Xi Zhicai's strategy.

In the eyes of the three of them, the Black Mountain thieves, whether they are family members or thieves, are all thieves, and there is no difference.

Since you can defeat Bai Huan by harassing the family of the Black Mountain thief, why not choose it?

Compassion is not in charge of soldiers, and righteousness is not in charge of wealth.

Chaos first, then governance, is the most reasonable.

As long as the thief can be broken and the method is not reused, the result is the only thing to consider.

"What a clever plan!" Cao Cao stroked his palms and laughed: "Just follow this plan, and immediately send someone to find out the location of the camp of the Black Mountain thief's family." ”
