"The military advisor said a few days ago that he could lay down peace, but I don't know if it can be done now?"

Zhuge Liang shook his fan and smiled, and said, "Now it is naturally possible." ”

Liu Chan raised his eyebrows and asked sincerely, "The military advisor taught me." ”

Zhuge Liang didn't sell Guan Zi to Liu Chan, but said it directly.

"I can go down to peace because of public authority."

Zhuge Liang's feather fan pointed at Meng Jian.

"Mr. Meng?"

Meng Jian bowed to Liu Chan, and then said: "It's just that I am in Pingyu City, I have some relationship, the city guard, and I am a close friend, I know his character, he is a loyal person to serve the country, hate Wei thief against the Han for a long time, if His Royal Highness wants to seek Runan, he will definitely respond!" ”

It turns out that there is an internal response!

Liu Chan looked pensive, and then asked, "How sure are you?" ”

Meng Jian thought for a while and said: "It may be easy to take the city, but it is not easy to defend the city, I can only convince him alone, as for the rest of the people in the city, the scholars, whether they can obey the order, I don't know." ”

Can only capture the city, but not necessarily stabilize the city?

How to say.

The internal response of this Pingyu City is not high.

"Who is this?"

Meng Jian smiled and said, "It's exactly below." ”

Next?

Liu Chan was stunned.

"Isn't that joking, sir?"

Meng Jian said seriously: "Naturally not. ”

After that, he began to explain to Liu Chan in detail.

"Pingyu City, is the place where my Runan Meng clan is now settled, many of the officials in the city are old with me, but they can be driven, the guards in the city, and most of them are Meng's children, I can respond to every call, of course, although the Meng clan is strong, but it can't occupy the whole city, at this time, it needs heavenly soldiers to come to support."

Liu Chan probably knew the situation in Pingyu City.

"This is all the situation that the military advisor expected?"

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said very modestly: "Ordinary people say that I have the ability of ghosts and gods, and I know astronomy and geography, this fallacy is also, I just know that there is a close friend in Pingyu City, and the location of Pingyu City is special, so I will be able to use it one day." ”

Zhuge Liang's modesty gives people an unfathomable feeling.

"Your Highness is going to enter the Pingyu?"

Liu Chan nodded and shook his head again.

"Actually, I'm still thinking about it."

Taking Pingyu could indeed severely damage the Wei army's grain route, however, it also lengthened the Han army's supply lines.

Or rather

In Pingyu City, there are no supplies at all!

It was destined to be a lonely city.

Can you hold it?

How long can it last?

"There is no urgency in this matter, Your Highness can wait for the change of time to make a decision."

Liu Chan's eyes flickered, staring directly at Zhuge Liang, and suddenly asked a question.

"I don't know how long in the heart of the military advisor, how long do you think Xuzhou and Jiangdong can hold Cao Pi?"

Zhuge Liang thought for a moment and said, "At least three months." ”

"If he knows that Pingyu is occupied by our army, the two grain routes are cut off by our army, and the front line is short of food, and it is difficult to fight for a long time, then how much time do we have left?"

Zhuge Liang touched the short beard on his chin, and suddenly understood what Liu Chan meant.

"Maybe there's only a month left."

This month's time is not the time for Cao Pi to pacify Xuzhou or defeat Sun Quan in Jiangdong, but how long the grain and grass of the Wei army in front can last.

If you don't come back in a month's time, then the Wei army front line may face the problem of food shortage.

In other words, if he doesn't solve Zang Ba and Sun Quan in a month, he will have to solve it too.

The difference is just in what method is used.

"If I tell the military advisor again that there are people in Wei who want to rebel and threaten Cao Pi's throne as King of Wei, then how much time do we have?"

Zhuge Liang frowned.

"Someone wants to rebel? Who is it? ”

This matter is confidential, and many people in the army do not know about it, but Zhuge Liang can absolutely believe it.

Meng Jian is willing to pin the whole clan on him, so it is naturally believable.

"Yellow beard Cao Zhang!"

Zhuge Liang's expression suddenly became serious.

"It's Marquis Yan Ling, how did His Highness know about such confidential news?"

"Hahahaha~"

Liu Chan chuckled lightly and said, "This matter was planned by the Shang Alliance, how can I not know?" ”

Business Alliance?

Zhuge Liang suddenly came to his senses.

"Is it Yuan Zhi?"

Liu Chan nodded slightly.

"It's Mr. Xu."

"No wonder."

Zhuge Liang muttered to himself and said: "If he knows that there is turmoil in Wei, with that Cao Pi's temperament, he must end the war in the shortest possible time and go back to consolidate the throne. ”

"So, Cao Pi, King of Wei, how long will it take to know about Cao Zhang's rebellion?"

Liu Chan shook his head and said: "The news that Cao Zhang is not tamed, maybe Cao Pi already knows, but he may not know that Huang Xu'er has the ambition to overthrow his throne, after all, his minions are in Chang'an, not in Guannei."

Therefore, only when Chang'an's troops were mobilized, Cao Pi knew that the Wei State would be in chaos, and his younger brother had the ambition to encroach on the Wei State! ”

Zhuge Liang calculated the time in his heart, this time has come and gone, and the time is probably more than a month.

"So we have a month left?"

"This is the most conservative estimate, Cao Pi has a school office under him, maybe he can find out Cao Zhang's actions faster, and the ministers he stayed in Luoyang may also know in advance, and there is one month left, which is the most time."

"Then Your Highness still wants to attack Pingyu?"

Meng Jian, who was on the side, was a little incomprehensible.

"Now that you know that Cao Pi will return soon, doesn't it attract the attention of the Wei army to capture Pingyu? Cao Pi wants to return to Luoyang, the nail of Pingyu must also be removed, Cao Pi has hundreds of thousands of troops under him, and in Pingyu City, it is estimated that there will only be thousands of people at that time, how can thousands of people resist the enemy who is a hundred times their own? ”

Meng Jian had to ask this question clearly.

He raised the strength of the whole clan to vote, he came to run for a future, not to send him to death.

If Liu Chan just regarded Pingyu as an outcast, then even if he Meng Jian died in the Han camp, he would not let the whole clan die with him!

Meng Jian's thoughts, Liu Chan naturally knew.

"Huh."

He chuckled, and then said: "I know Mr. Meng's worries, so I have to win and defend Pingyu!" ”

Looking at Meng Jian's frowning appearance, Liu Chan said again: "Mr. Fang Cai said that thousands of people can't resist the attack of hundreds of thousands of people, so if tens of thousands of people defend a city, and tens of thousands of people are involved, can they hold Pingyu City for a month?" ”

Tens of thousands of people defend the city, even if hundreds of thousands of people come to attack, even if the opposite side does not want to attack, it will definitely be able to defend it.

The reason is also very simple.

The hundreds of thousands of people of the Wei army can't be pressed up at once, they always have to come in waves.

Only when the siege equipment in the city is exhausted, and only when the defenders in the city are consumed, can the city be captured.

Hold on for a month?

More than enough!

It's just that

Meng Jian had a new question in his heart.

"Your Highness pressed the army and directly confronted the main force of the Wei army, isn't that a self-defeating way?"

It is true that you can keep peace for a month, but what is the use of keeping this month?

At that time, the elite soldiers in their hands will be lost, not to mention planning Runan, even Jingzhou, which has just been defeated, will be lost.

Isn't this picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelon?

No!

I didn't even get the sesame seeds, so I threw the watermelon away.

"A month's time, for us and others, is really insignificant, but when the Chang'an army arrives in Luoyang, for Cao Pi, every moment passes, his heart is like a knife, what can he do if he wins Pingyu? If Luoyang is occupied, and His Majesty Xudu issues an edict, appointing him as the king of Wei and Cao Pi as the pseudo-king, what should be done? ”

It is indeed cool to coerce the Son of Heaven to make the princes.

But the authority of your King Wei was given by Emperor Han, so he can naturally give it to others.

If this happened, Liu Xie, the Han Emperor in the Xu capital, might wish that the Wei State would be in turmoil.

At that time

A great war is inevitable.

There is a Wei country, but there are two Wei kings, and the winner will finally be divided.

At this time, is Runan important?

Is Xuzhou important?

It doesn't matter, there is only one thing that is the most important, and that is the throne of King Wei!

In other words, killing another King of Wei is the most important thing.

When the two kings may fight, the tens of thousands of troops under him Liu Chan stick to it like a dog's skin plaster, what will Cao Pi think?

Beat?

It cannot be wiped out in a short period of time.

Don't fight?

People still don't let you go, they insist on disgusting you, so that he can't quickly pacify Cao Zhang's rebellion, and even be attacked from both sides, and when the time comes, the army will be defeated and killed, and the throne of King Wei will be handed away.

Empathy, you are Cao Pi, how will you choose?

The complicated thoughts were actually only a moment in Meng Jian's mind.

He couldn't help but applaud with excitement on his face.

"Wonderful, wonderful!"

"His Royal Highness's intention is to use the world as a chess game to stir up chaos in Wei, but with the opportunity of Cao Pi, the king of Wei, to return to Luoyang, take down Runan?"

Liu Chan shook his head and said: "Cao Pi will definitely not be willing to take the entire Runan, but if there are only a few cities south of Nanrushui, he will be willing." ”

Lu Xun once said: The temperament of the Chinese is always like to reconcile and compromise.

For example, if you say:

This room is too dark, and a window must be opened here.

You won't allow it.

But if you advocate tearing down the roof,

So they came to reconcile and were willing to open the windows.

It's the same if you change here, Liu Chan won't agree to the whole Runan instead of asking for the whole Runan, but if it's just those seven or eight cities, he can consider it again.

The throne of the king of Wei and the seven or eight cities, who is more important?

This choice is known to all three-year-olds.

"If so, my subordinates are willing to die from here!"

Liu Chan was not overly optimistic, but said: "This is just an assumption, and it is not easy to follow the assumption." ”

What is the same in this world, according to your ideas?

There are always variables.

"There are naturally variables, but with His Highness and Kong Ming, no matter how big the variables are, they can be reversed, I have this confidence, and I also believe in the ability of His Highness and Kong Ming!"

The longer he spent with Liu Chan, the deeper the admiration in Meng Jian's heart became.

This son!

Is it really a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy?

The idea of doing things is not much more than the great wisdom!

Born to be a king!

At this moment, in Meng Jian's heart, there are only these four words left!

"However, if you want to succeed in peace, you still have to attract Sima Zhongda's attention first, perhaps, tomorrow there will be an opportunity to capture the praise!"

The main force of the Wei army in Runan has gone to Shenyang and Ancheng under the leadership of Sima Yi, and the city is empty, even if there is a Wei army garrison, but the number of this Wei army is very small, plus Lan Zhan is still alive, his means in the city, maybe there are a few that can be used.

Praise City may be able to be attacked!

And the praise is captured, Sima Yi's attention will be completely involved here, and at that time, Pingyu will be able to take action!

Zhuge Liang immediately got up and saluted Liu Chan and said: "That is the case, in order to see off Gongwei, I will go and take the praise, and His Highness will hand it over to Liang!" ”

This is the first time that Zhuge Liang has asked for help under him.

Maybe it's because of today's conversation

Liu Chan didn't think about it, and immediately agreed.

"This matter is handed over to the military advisor, I am very relieved!"

Zhuge Kongming is out of the horse, a mere city of praise, can he stop him?

At this moment, Liu Chan's gaze was very deep.

Cao Zihuan, my overall situation has been laid out, will you follow my plan and become a chess piece in the overall situation of my world?

Jiujiang County.

Shouchun City.

The army marches in the garden, in the hall of the council.

Cao Pi, who was sitting on the main throne and wearing a royal robe, had a very unpleasant complexion.

In addition to the cold air and murderous intent emanating from his body, his sharp eyes, like eagles, dug down towards the ministers under the hall, and no one dared to look at him.

After many days of fighting, Cao Pi gradually took control of the whole army.

Delegating all the talents that had been accumulated in his own Hou Mansion and changing positions in the war, those who were not his henchmen, although they were promoted on the surface, were promoted to some high but powerless positions, and the key positions were already controlled by his henchmen.

This was originally what Cao Pi expected.

War can allow him to digest the legacy left by Cao Cao more quickly.

It's just that

There were also some things he didn't expect.

In his original opinion, the Wei army was in the hands of his Laozi Cao Cao, and in most cases, it could be won in one battle.

This was true of Sun Quan in Jiangdong, and the same was true of local rebellions.

But now that the throne of King Wei has been replaced by him, everything seems to have changed.

Zang Ba is like a cockroach, he can't be killed, and he can't get out of it.

Sun Quan is really a villain, but he can't punish him.

Behind him, the man who robbed his wife kept blocking him.

Aggrieved!

Before he became the king of Wei, he was not so aggrieved, but after becoming the king of Wei, he was aggrieved.

"Xuzhou could have taken it, but now it can't be taken again? Do you want me to go in person to pacify Xuzhou? ”

Cao Pi's questioning voice echoed in the hall, and no one answered.

"Jiangdong rats are besieging Chengde, do you want me to go to Chengde and defeat Sun Zhongmou?"

Still no one answered.

"The traitor Liu Chan, stirring up the wind and rain in Runan and demagoguery, is it possible that I still want to go to Runan to pacify this thief?"

The more he spoke, the more murderous he became.

"As a minister, but unable to share the king's sorrows, what is the crime?"

"King!"

As Cao Pi's confidant, Wu Zhen stood up at this moment.

"Your Majesty has a plan, or you can solve the king's worries!"

ps：

There is a change at 5 p.m.
