Chapter 104 I’m afraid that Yun Chang won’t listen to the military advisor

It turned out that Gongsun Du, the governor of Liaodong, learned that Liu Bei had moved to Beihai and took away 3,000 soldiers and horses. Only Guan Yu was left to guard Donglai Huang County with 3,000 soldiers, so he wanted to capture Donglai.

This time he no longer asked his son Gongsun Kang to lead the army. Instead, his close confidants Liu Yi and Yang Yi led 10,000 troops and crossed the sea to attack.

The last time he sent troops, he was slightly defeated and returned without success, but the loss was not huge, so Gongsun Du was not afraid of Liu Bei at all.

Now Liu Bei has gone to Beihai with the black-faced general. Hearing that Zang Ba is going to lead his troops north to attack Liu Bei again, he feels that this is a golden opportunity.

The troops and horses recruited last time are still there. There is no need to recruit new troops this time. Once the order is given, the troops and horses will go.

The detectives who stayed in Xiangping, Liaodong, sent back the news, and Guan Yu sent people to report. At this time, the soldiers and horses of Liaodong were about to rush to the seaside and prepare to cross the sea.

Gongsun Du wanted to catch Liu Bei off guard so that Liu Bei wouldn't have enough time to prepare.

"Go and call Xianhe Gongyou, Ziyi and Yide." Liu Bei ordered.

Jian Yong, Sun Qian, Zhang Fei and Tai Shi Ci arrived soon.

Liu Bei explained the situation, took a look at everyone, and asked Zhou Xing: "The soldiers and horses from Liaodong are rushing in. They obviously want to break through Donglai quickly and leave us no time to rescue. What do the military advisors think we should do?"

"With only Guan Xiaowei and three thousand soldiers and horses, it will be difficult to resist. We must send troops to assist."

Zhou Xing was afraid that Guan Yu would be too arrogant and lead his troops into battle rashly. After all, the opponent had many soldiers and horses, and the person leading the troops this time was not Gongsun Kang. If he was not careful, he would be defeated.

"Brother, let me go. My second brother and I will kill all the Liaodong soldiers and not let any of them escape."

Zhang Fei hurriedly asked for a fight.

Liu Bei frowned, glanced at Zhang Fei, and turned to Zhou Xing, saying, "We must send troops to assist. Who do you think is the best way to lead the troops?"

Liu Bei is now the Prime Minister of Beihai, and he has arrived in Beihai for the first time. It is not appropriate to leave, otherwise the escaped Yellow Turban bandits will come back.

Zhou Xing had just returned from Langya and was newly married. Liu Bei wanted him to go, but felt that it was inappropriate to let him leave at this time.

Between Liu Bei and Zhou Xing, one person must lead the army.

Zhou Xing also thought about this question, glanced at Zhang Fei and Taishi Ci, and replied: "Now that all the pirates in the North Sea have fled, and Zang Xuangao of Langya will not bother them, why don't Ziyi and I lead two thousand troops to Donglai?" To assist, my lord and Lieutenant Zhang left a thousand soldiers here to defend the city. What do you think, lord?"

When Zhang Fei heard this, he became anxious and shouted: "Hey, Military Advisor Zhou, how could you not let me kill the enemy?"

"If I stay here, will those North Sea pirates dare to come back?" Zhang Fei added again, with a strong sense of boasting.

Zhou Xing smiled and said: "Zhang Lieutenant, you stay here to prevent those bandits from returning. Otherwise, if you go to Donglai and the bandits return, but the lord stays here, can you rest assured?

”

"This..."

Zhang Fei was speechless for a moment and regretted that he shouldn't have pretended to be cool. Now that he's fine, if he doesn't want to stay, there's probably nothing he can do about it.

He looked at Liu Bei, then at Zhou Xing, and finally said nothing.

Jian Yong couldn't help laughing, but was glared at by Zhang Fei, and said hurriedly: "Donglai is concerned about Yun Changzai, Yide, don't you worry about Yun Changzai? Besides, the lord is staying in Beihai, you should stay there

The main thing is to protect the lord, how can you abandon the lord's safety just to kill the enemy!"

"Jian Xianhe, I can't go now!"

Zhang Fei was told that he didn't care about Liu Bei's safety, so he shouted quickly.

Liu Bei smiled and said: "Well, You De and a thousand soldiers are left behind, which is enough to defend the city. Even if a group of thieves and bandits arrive, we will not be afraid."

Zhang Fei immediately laughed and said: "Brother, as long as I am here, no bandit dares to come back."

"Military advisor, you and Ziyi will lead two thousand troops to help. Together with Yun Chang, you have five thousand troops. We should be able to repel the Liaodong soldiers, but..."

Liu Bei hesitated and said nothing, with a worried look on his face.

Zhou Xing understood what his lord was worried about.

Guan Yu remained in charge of Donglai, and all military affairs were under his control.

Now that he and Taishi Ci have led the troops, it is a question whether Guan Yu or himself will make the decision.

If Guan Yu takes the decision, Liu Bei is worried that his second brother is quite arrogant and will do bad things if he doesn't listen to Zhou Xing's advice.

Because Liu Bei is still implementing the strategy of staying in and not wanting to show off his strength too much.

If Guan Yu defeats the Liaodong soldiers too easily, it is likely to attract Yuan's attention, which will arouse Yuan's suspicion.

If it were Zhou Xing who made the decision, I'm afraid Guan Yu wouldn't be convinced.

Guan Yu has always been arrogant. Except for Liu Bei, he has never really convinced anyone.

Liu Bei is not here, and Guan Yu is in charge of Donglai's military affairs. It may be difficult for him to obey the orders of a military advisor.

"I'm afraid that Yun Chang won't listen to the military advisor!" Liu Bei finally expressed his worries.

"That's right, Military Advisor Zhou, I'm afraid Guan Yunchang won't listen to your military orders!" Jian Yong knew Guan Yu's character and was worried at this time.

Zhou Xing had already made up his mind and couldn't help but smile and said: "My lord, since Guan Xiaowei is staying in Donglai and is currently using troops in Donglai, Ziyi and I are only going to provide reinforcements. Naturally, Guan Xiaowei will be the main one and I will be the assistant."

Don't worry, lord, I believe that Guan Xiaowei will understand your lord's intentions and will not act out of emotion. If there is anything wrong, I will give you my best advice."

Zhou Xing knew as much about Guan Yu as Liu Bei and Jian Yong, and knew what kind of person he was.

And now that we are facing a powerful enemy, the most important thing is to be harmonious and work together to repel the enemy soldiers, and then we can talk about other things.

Even if Guan Yu insists on defeating the Liaodong soldiers, he can only leave it to him. It is always a good thing to retreat from the enemy. Although it may arouse Yuan's suspicion, when the time comes, he can just explain to Yuan.

Yuan Shao is a person who is tolerant of government and difficult to make decisions, rather than a harsh and wise person, who is easier to fool.

Hearing what Zhou Xing said, Liu Bei was overjoyed.

"The military advisor said this, and I feel relieved. As my second brother, the military advisor knows that sometimes my words may not always work. With you and Ziyi coming to help, I believe you will be able to work together to repel the enemy soldiers.

Keep Donglai in peace! It’s just that the military advisor has just gotten married, and now I want you to separate from your wife. I feel a little sorry!”

"My lord, there are priorities. Besides, my separation from my wife is only temporary. I will be back soon. My lord, don't worry about it!" Zhou Xing comforted.

"Hahaha, then I will wait for the military advisor to come back and celebrate your success!"

Liu Bei immediately sent someone back to Donglai to deliver a message, informing Guan Yu that reinforcements were coming, and at the same time told Guan Yu to discuss matters with his military advisor and not to make arbitrary decisions. He also said that he should not show his strength too much, repel the enemy soldiers, and not kill too many enemies.

This will prevent the Liaodong soldiers from coming back in the future, which will make it difficult for them to recruit troops for defense. Moreover, this will not arouse the suspicion of the Yuan family, and they can develop with peace of mind.

At the same time, Guan Yu was asked to move the Linhai people near Jinkou inward to avoid the enemy, and Guan Yu and Li Ye Wang Xiu were asked to quickly recruit 3,000 soldiers as backup troops.

It is natural to recruit troops when the enemy arrives, and it will not arouse Yuan's suspicion. However, after the enemy retreats, these soldiers will still stay. As Zhou's military advisor said, these soldiers can be dispersed to various counties and temporarily serve as county soldiers.

, once again unified and mobilized during the war, there was another army.

Zhou Xing said goodbye to his wife Sun Yao first. With Mrs. Gan and Mrs. Mi taking care of her, Zhou Xing was not worried at all.
