Yao Xing's eyes lit up and he blurted out: "There is such a good thing, how is it possible?"
A meaningful look flashed across Tao Yuanming's eyes: "As the art of war goes, it is the best strategy to defeat the enemy without fighting! All your Majesty has to do is to bluff."
A trace of disappointment flashed in Yao Xing's eyes: "I thought Mr. Sir had such powerful methods. Do you think Liu Yu would still fall into this trap after a lifetime of fighting? He is now besieging an isolated city in Guanggu. He can do it at any time. He is wearing a black robe.
Although powerful, if you are alone and helpless, it will be a matter of time before you are defeated. To save Nan Yan, you must have an army of 100,000 to 150,000 people. If you say that you can save Yan by bluffing, you are talking nonsense!"
Tao Yuanming smiled and said: "The so-called bluff has not been done before. When Murong De took advantage of Liu Yu to raise troops to destroy Huan Xuan, he also intended to attack Jin. Although it failed in the end, he still put forward more than forty
The huge formation of Wanbuqi forced Liu Yu to make an alliance with him under the city. This is a typical example of subduing soldiers without fighting!"
Yao Xing frowned: "In the past when the Qin Dynasty was in its heyday, it would have been difficult to get three to four hundred thousand soldiers and horses. After all, I am not like Murong De, who can go to war and abuse the people's power. What's more, now, my main force is used for
It is difficult to deal with Liu Bobo, so how can we mobilize a large army to deal with Liu Yu? It is not that I have not discussed the possibility of sending troops here before, but many generals said that with the current strength of Da Qin, it is possible to send out a hundred thousand troops to cross the Central Plains.
It is almost impossible to go as far as Qilu to rescue Yan."
Tao Yuanming said calmly: "It is impossible and unnecessary now. Liu Yu has just won a big victory in Linqu and is in full swing. Even the black robe does not dare to confront him in the field anymore. He can only shrink Guanggu's defense. But
Please note that he is now only afraid of Zhang Gang coming to ask for help. Although this man is a skilled craftsman, he is just a minister in Nanyan, not even a minister of the Sixth Ministry. Sending someone of this level to rescue proves one thing.
That means Black Robe doesn’t really want to ask for help now.”
Yao Xing laughed: "You have noticed this. At yesterday's internal court meeting, many important ministers said that Nan Yan had no sincerity in asking for help. Back then, he even sent Han Yan to welcome back Murong Chao's mother and wife.
Zhuo, the minister Zuo Pushe, came here, and this time he actually asked a minister to come and ask for soldiers to save the country. I'm afraid he's lost his mind."
Tao Yuanming nodded: "Heipao still has illusions now. He hopes that Guanggu's solid city defense and his military skills can defeat Liu Yu alone. After all, it is easy to ask the gods to send them away, but it is difficult to ask for help from the outside. Once the foreign army really comes forward,
Come and stay in the territory of Yan State. It will not be easy to drive them away again. Last time, His Majesty sent back Murong Chao's mother and wife, but he asked Nan Yan to apply for vassal status and return the royal band.
.If we help him protect his country this time, the price will only be higher."
Yao Xing sneered and said, "If he can defend Guanggu by himself, why would he need me to send troops?"
Tao Yuanming shook his head: "Guanggu is a strong city in the world, and Black Robe is well versed in the art of war, so it should be able to defend it. But now in Nanyan, the whole country has surrendered, and there is only Guanggu City left. Even if Liu Yu doesn't
If we can capture it, we will be besieged for a long time. Now Liu Yu has stopped transporting grain, grass and baggage from the rear, but is recruiting people from Nanyan on the spot. The Han people in Qingzhou, who have been oppressed by Xianbei and other barbarians for many years, have taken the initiative to join the army.
In order not to miss this opportunity for revenge, Black Robe may be able to hold on for three months or half a year, but if Liu Yu besieges him on the spot for one or two years, can he still hold on?"
Yao Xing said thoughtfully: "So, you want me to release the news of the approaching army when Liu Yu fails to attack the city and the division veterans are exhausted, so that Liu Yu can take the initiative to retreat, as the price of sending troops, and send troops to Nanyan."
Seeking benefits?”
Tao Yuanming smiled slightly: "Yes, that's why I want to bring Sima Guofan this time. Now Liu Yu's prestige is at its peak. He not only restored the Jin Emperor and defeated Huan Chu, but also succeeded in the Northern Expedition against the Huru and defeated the world.
The invincible Murong clan was equipped with armor and cavalry. At this time, no one in the Eastern Jin Dynasty dared to openly resist him. But God-given opportunity, he gave us Sima Guofan at this time. Although this man looks incompetent and weak, maybe he
, was the first key person to shake Liu Yu."
Yao Xing nodded with satisfaction and said: "At this time, there is a Sima clan in the Eastern Jin Dynasty who dares to openly resist Liu Yu. If Liu Yu fails to attack Guanggu for a long time, the aristocratic families who are secretly dissatisfied with Liu Yu will instigate more and more
Many Sima clans have revolted, and even the Tiandao Alliance where Hei Pao is located may also cause trouble, is this what you mean?"
Tao Yuanming nodded: "Yes, Heipao dares to defend Guanggu City alone. Obviously there are accomplices outside. They may not dare to launch when Liu Yu is going well, but if Liu Yu's veterans are tired, changes may occur within the Jin Kingdom.
, with the Sima clan raising the flag of righteousness first, and the aristocratic family secretly supporting behind, Liu Yu's rear will be unstable. If the soldiers have been fighting for many years, they will also have complaints. At this time, they can really challenge Liu Yu
The power may appear."
Yao Xing's heart suddenly moved: "Are you referring to Liu Yi?"
Tao Yuanming nodded with a smile and said: "Your Majesty is really insightful. Yes, Liu Yu's biggest threat in Jin is actually not the Sima clan, nor even the aristocratic family that no longer controls the military. His biggest opponent is...
This is Liu Yi, his comrade for many years, and the feud between the two has long been an open secret. This time Liu Yu rejected Liu Yi's request for the Northern Expedition and led the troops himself, but asked Liu Yi to guard the rear. On the surface, Liu Yu
, is based on the foundation and trust in Liu Yi. In fact, it is just to let Liu Yi look after the family and prevent him from making contributions. Liu Yi was not sure about conquering Yan, so he could not argue with Liu Yu, and even be happy to do so.
Seeing his defeat, but now that Liu Yu has defeated Linqu and entered Guanggu, can Liu Yi still laugh?"
Yao Xing stroked his beard with satisfaction: "Can Mr. Tao and Liu Yi be able to talk to each other, or can it arouse Liu Yi and Liu Yu's determination to compete?"
Tao Yuanming's eyes flashed with a sly light: "Of course, Liu Yi's wife, the former Huanxuan's queen Liu Tingyun, I personally rescued and arranged to become Liu Yi's woman. At that time, I just wanted Liu Yi to
This woman had a deep hatred for Liu Yu, but I didn’t expect that Liu Yi actually married her as his wife. In the past few years, I have often used this woman to stir up the relationship between Liu Yi and Liu Yu.
, Now I am very sure that Liu Yi is actually waiting for an opportunity, waiting for an opportunity that will make Liu Yu completely defeated and unable to suppress him with military merit. Once Liu Yu cannot win on the battlefield, then this opportunity will come, because,
I am fully confident that all the big families in Jin will openly support Liu Yi at this time, even the Xie family!"
