Strategic fraud, transfer himself, let Cao Cao scheming, and make himself a link in Guan Yu's Northern Expedition Xiangfan's strategy. Although Huo Jun was unwilling, he was forced by the situation and out of consideration for the overall situation, he also had to do it.

What is the situation today?

When Guan Yu went to the north to attack Xiangfan, even Liu Bei expressed his willingness to cooperate. At present, the Jianghuai Metropolitan Governor can only cooperate with Guan Yu to fight.

At the same time, from the perspective of resource allocation, Liu Bei just raised 100,000 troops to the Northern Expedition in Shouchun this year, and from the perspective of material reserves and large-scale requisition of Jiangdong people for conscription, the Jianghuai Prefecture has been unable to launch a large army Northern Expedition in the short term.

On the contrary, in the Nanjun area, due to the large population, recuperation for many years, and sufficient reserves of military strategic materials, the Southern Han Dynasty wanted to go north in the short term, and it was most appropriate to call Jingchu materials. Under such circumstances, the Jianghuai Prefecture either did not send troops, or dispatched part of the army to cooperate with the battle.

From Huo Jun's own point of view, after the incident of 'King Huainan', he understood the words of the tree. Now it is better to lower your sense of existence, follow the national strategy, and use yourself as a pawn for tactical deception, so as to cooperate with the Jingchu Theater of Operations.

The protagonist sings on stage, writes and arranges the script by himself, and sets up the stage, which is Huo Jun's positioning of himself now.

Therefore, on the basis of the views of Zhuge Liang, Fa Zheng, Buqi and others, Huo Jun has a rough plan.

That is, using Cao Cao's discord as a springboard, pushing the boat down the river, let Liu Bei transfer himself out of the Jianghuai Prefecture. Then, Liu Bei transferred his troops to Jiaozhou, making the illusion that Jiaoling had been difficult to overcome for a long time, and made Cao Cao believe that Liu Bei's current strategic focus was to integrate internal separatist forces.

Cao Cao was confused in macro strategy, and then he could advance the battle of Xiangfan from the micro tactics, that is, using Guan Yu's strategy, striving to deceive Cao Ren and ambush him to win.

As for the battle on the Jiaoling side, it is necessary to formulate an appropriate strategy for it, so as not to startle the snake due to the previous fight, so that Shixie has to be prepared, which will lead to the erosion of the situation in Jiaoling.

Liu Bei groaned and agreed: "Cao Cao is suspicious and often can't trust people, if he follows his plan and transfers Zhong Miao away from Jianghuai, he should be able to make him believe." The general surrendered the city, and Cao Cao thought that I intended to cross the mountains, and he would definitely send troops to meet him and take advantage of it. ”

Liu Bei and Cao Cao have been familiar with each other for many years, and they know each other's temperament.

Cao Cao is suspicious and does not trust others, but Cao Cao is a confident person and is often confident in his decisions.

Liu Bei took the initiative to release the news, saying that he did not trust Huo Jun, and transferred Huo Jun to another place, Cao Cao might not be suspicious.

But now Cao Cao is using a divisive plan, intending to separate Liu and Huo. Although I don't see Huo Jun rebelling today, but seeing that Liu Bei is suspicious of Huo Jun, he will also believe that his plan will work. After all, Liu and Huo have a deep friendship, and Gai is not known to ordinary people.

After thinking about it, Liu Bei said: "It's wronged to act like this!" ”

"Haha!"

Huo Jun touched his mustache and said with a smile: "Cao Cao used evil tricks to defile me, and if I don't look for an opportunity to counteract now, won't I let him think that I Wu Chu is no one cares?" ”

Zhuge Liang held a fan and commented, saying: "What Zhong Miao said is a good policy, how to lure Cao Ren to fight today, and how to level the crossing, need to be deeply discussed during the deployment." ”

After a pause, Zhuge Liang said: "If Lu Meng invites himself to be a general, and it is difficult to set up an ambush in Dangyang." ”

Lu Meng invited himself to be a general, but it was not Guan Yu's order. But Guan Yu couldn't find a suitable candidate, and in desperation, Lu Meng had no choice but to take the initiative to ask for help.

You ask Guan Yu why he can't find a suitable candidate?

Because he saw that his subordinates were unlikely to rebel, such as Liuzan, Lü Meng, Shi Ran, and Shiren, these people had either followed him for many years, or had followed Liu Bei for many years.

Let's say that Nayidu is too guarded by Shiren, he has followed Liu Bei since he raised his army, and he can't say that he is rich and noble, but he is also a person who lives in an official residence of 2,000 stones, and he really can't find a reason to rebel.

After all, there must be a reason for rebellion, not that whoever has surrendered must surrender.

For example, the general who has served Cao Cao for decades is forbidden, and you say that he surrendered to Guan Yu, and it is estimated that even Guan Yu himself can't believe it.

Fa Zheng pondered for a while and said, "Lu Meng asked for surrender, I am afraid that Cao Cao will not be able to believe it." There is one person in his heart, who may surrender on behalf of Lu Meng and lure Cao Ren into battle. ”

"Who?" Liu Bei asked.

"Mencius!"

Fa Zheng pondered and said: "Zidu has great ambitions and is really strategic. Today, he has been serving as Padang Taishou for many years, and he often has the heart to make great achievements. Now why don't you send Zidu to surrender by deception, thinking that he will help General Guan and lure Cao Ren to send troops. ”

Zhuge Liang looked puzzled and said: "Liang still remembers Meng Badong's character Zijing, which is the same as Suhou, how can I change the word to Zidu today?" ”

"Huh!"

Fa Zheng was a little embarrassed and said: "Zidu has feelings in Badong, so he changed Zidu to Zidu." ”

Fa Zheng's explanation for Meng Da's change of words is far-fetched, but in fact, Meng Da's change of words wanted to attract Liu Bei's attention. After all, Liu Bei has an uncle's son, and Meng Da has lived in Badong for many years, so he naturally wants to move his position.

Seeing this, Huo Jun couldn't help but smile in his heart.

Meng Daqi, Huo Jun can see it thoroughly, and most of them are people who are consumed by profit. In the past, under Liu Zhang, he felt that he had no future, so he changed hands and joined Fa Zheng and defected to Liu Bei.

In history, after taking refuge in Liu Bei, Meng Da was afraid of being blamed by Liu Bei because of Guan Yu's death, so he turned to Cao Pi.

After Cao Pi died, Cao Rong was not interested in Meng Da, and Meng Da and Zhuge Liang made eyebrows.

Seeing that Meng Da was unreliable, Zhuge Liang directly sold Meng Da as a pawn to attract Cao Rong's attention in order to succeed in the battle.

On who in the Three Kingdoms can compete with the three surnamed slaves Lu Bu, only Meng Da can be compared.

At the time of the war, Zhuge Liang sold Meng Da, and there was nothing to do. It's really because Meng Da is too dog, in order to raise his value, he has a strong affection for Shu Han while making eye contact with Dongwu Mei.

If Zhuge Liang hadn't forced Meng Da to rebel, it was estimated that Meng Da would have relied on the relationship between the three eastern counties close to the borders of various countries, and would be a grass on the wall.

As for why Meng Da and Liu Feng didn't save Guan Yu, the two were really in trouble at that time.

In May, the Battle of Hanzhong ended; In July, Liu Bei ascended to the throne of Hanzhong; In August, Guan Yu entered the siege of Fancheng; During this period, Liu Feng and Meng Da were ordered by Liu Bei to attack the three eastern counties.

Due to the lack of troops, Guan Yu asked Liu and Meng to send troops to share the pressure. Liu and Meng refused to send troops to support on the grounds that they had just gone to the three eastern counties and could not be moved lightly. As a result, Guan Yu was defeated by Xu Huang under the city of Xiangyang, and had no choice but to retreat to Hannan.

In November, Lü Meng crossed the river in white clothes, Mi Fang and Shiren surrendered, Jiangling was captured by Eastern Wu, and Lü Meng captured Guan Yu in Maicheng.

Guan Yu's defeat and Jingzhou's loss were not due to Liu Bei and Zhuge incompetence, but purely because of the year when the Seventh Army was flooded, and the situation changed so quickly that it was dizzying. It is like a steam furnace that has been squeezed for a long time, detonating the internal and external contradictions of the three schools in an instant, forming drastic changes.

At that time, Meng Da and Liu Fengruo knew the outcome of Guan Yu's defeat, and estimated that they would rather not want the three eastern counties, but would also do their best to help Guan Yu.

Coughing a few times, Huo Jun said: "Filial piety wants to be a false surrender to the son, and Jun thinks it is feasible." In the past, Zhang Song, Meng Badong, and Xiaozhi welcomed the king to take Shu, during which Zhang Song caused evil words and brought about his own destruction. However, Meng Badong can be asked to write to Cao on the grounds of fear. ”

Zhuge Liang stroked the feather fan and said: "On the grounds that Zhang Song was punished and fearful, the letter was falsely surrendered to Cao Cao, which is really more suitable than Lu Meng." However, I don't know what the king and Meng Badong mean? ”

Liu Bei was not affected by Zhang Song's old affairs in the slightest, his face was calm, and he said: "If Zidu is willing to accept this important task, he thinks it is feasible. ”

"Please rest assured, the king!"

Fa Zheng arched his hand and replied: "Zidu wants to make meritorious achievements for a long time, and now he is pseudo-descending to Cao Cao, which is an opportunity to make meritorious contributions, how can Zidu be willing!" ”

"Zidu is currently the Taishou of Badong, and now he wants to pretend to demote Cao Cao and be an official in order to contact Cao Ren."

Liu Bei leaned his back on the table and said thoughtfully: "When do you not know what position to appoint?" Public Security City Governor, or Dangyang City Governor? ”

Saying that, Liu Bei shook his head and said: "The public security, the city governor of Dangyang Ercheng, has been guarded by Lu Meng and Shi Ran for a long time, and now the city governor is replaced, and the two thousand stone Shangqing is appointed, it will be suspicious!" ”

"Why not like this?"

Huo Jun's mind opened and said: "The three counties of Shangyong, Xicheng, and Fangling were previously occupied by the Shen brothers and thieves. Now the king might as well order his son to seal the three counties of the town, take Zidu as the deputy governor, integrate the three counties, and move the Shen clan to live in Wuhan. ”

In the meantime, Gongzi Feng and Zidu can quarrel and disagree, and stimulate contradictions to make thieves known. At that time, Zidu's letter was falsely surrendered to Cao Ren, and Cao Cao would be able to believe it. ”

Touching his mustache, Huo Jun secretly thought: "The real surrender in history is better than a fake surrender now, and it shouldn't be a problem for Liu Feng and Meng Da." ”

"Feng'er?"

Liu Bei looked embarrassed and said: "Feng'er has a straightforward temper, and he is entrusted with this false responsibility, I am afraid that he will be detected by Cao Ren." ”

"No!"

Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "Gongzi Feng has a straightforward temperament, he goes out of the town, and there is a gap between him and the general, so Cao Cao will not be suspicious." As for the dispute between Gongzi Feng and Zidu, he should be a good student, or he can let Bo Yan secretly guide him by letter. ”

Saying that, Zhuge Liang couldn't help but look at Huo Jun, and secretly said: "Let Liu Feng and Meng Da have a gap between each other, thinking that they are bewitching Cao Cao, and Zhong Miao is scheming!" ”

"If Feng'er and Zidu are transferred to the three counties of Shangyong, Xicheng, and Fangling, won't the ambush place be changed to Fangling?" Liu Bei was puzzled and asked: "Fangling and Jiangling are connected by Han water, but there is Xiangfan. Walking by land to Fangling, the army is afraid of inconvenience when marching, I don't know what Yun Chang thinks? ”

Zhuge Liang and Huo Jun looked at each other and smiled, the two of them knew a lot about the geography of the three eastern counties due to various factors.

The Han River originates in Longyou, passes through Hanzhong, passes through the three eastern counties, reaches Xiangyang, and flows into the Yangtze River.

Although the three eastern counties are pierced by the Han River, they are affected by the Qinling Mountains and the Daba Mountains, the mountains are steep, and the gap between the Han River is too large, which is not conducive to the shuttle of boats and boats, and when they meet the army, it is not conducive to advance and retreat. Once Cao Ren is deceived into the three eastern counties, he will shed his skin even if he does not die.

Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "Fangling is mountainous, near the mountains and water, it is easy to advance and difficult to retreat, and this soldier is also in danger." Compared with the ambush of Dangyang, Fangling should be an appropriate place. Huo Du's strategy is a proper plan. ”

Historically, when Jiang Wan was in power, he tried to use troops to the three eastern counties, and finally considered the problem of retreat, that is, if the three eastern counties could not be defeated, it would not be so easy to withdraw the troops due to the terrain.

What is a celebrity?

It is easy to revitalize the current strategic deployment of the north and south of the Southern Han Dynasty, and only then can he dare to be called a famous general.

Whether it is to hand over first and then Xiang, or to pay first and then to pay, Huo Jun said that he wants it all!

In terms of the overall situation, few people in the Three Kingdoms can compare to Huo Jun. With the help of the current chess pieces that can be used, Huo Jun planned a shocking scam for Liu Bei.

Of course, it was not Huo Jun's wisdom alone, Guan Yu and Lu Meng first advocated the tactics of luring the snake out of the hole, Zhuge Liang corrected the shortcomings, and Fa Zheng recommended the right person to take steps on the strategy of dredging the Jiaoling.

After Gai learned about Huo Jun's plan, Liu Bei got up excitedly and praised him: "Zhong Miao is really worthy of being a national soldier, and he has to offer such a strategy when he first enters Wuhan." If this policy can be achieved, Xiangfan will be able to go down in the near future! ”

"Someone!"

Liu Bei pointed his fingers left and right, and commanded: "Send the strategy said by Zhuqing to Jiangling, and let General Guan read it for personal consideration." To see if he agreed, Meng Da surrendered and set up an ambush in Fangling. ”

"At the same time, Gongzi Feng and Meng Da were summoned to Wuhan, and there were confidential matters to entrust each other."

After Liu Chan became the crown prince, Liu Feng was not stationed in Wuhan because of his identity, but was assigned by Liu Bei to be stationed on the other side of Wuhan - Yicheng to help Wenpin share the pressure of guarding Jiangxia.

"No!"
