Hearing this, Lu Bu was stunned and asked doubtfully, "Yuan Zhi, now is the time when Xuzhou is weak, why is it not the best time?"
Xu Shu smiled slightly and said, "Marquis Wen, Xuzhou is already empty. It may not be easy for Cao Mengde to regain his strength. On the contrary, Huainan's troops are also damaged at this time and their strength is greatly reduced.
If our army takes this opportunity to attack Huainan, it will definitely be able to achieve success in one battle. As long as Huainan falls into the hands of our army, only Xuzhou will be left at our fingertips."
After hearing this, Lu Bu nodded, "Yuan Zhi, are you saying that it is safer to attack Huainan now?"
Xu Shu nodded, "Yes, as long as we take advantage of him and attack Huainan now, it will be easy.
”
Lu Bu frowned and asked slowly, "Yuan Zhi, now is indeed the best time for us to attack Huainan, but have you ever thought about what we should do if Cao Mengde sends troops to help Yuan Shu when we attack Huainan?"
?"
He did not deny Xu Shu's plan, because it was indeed the best time to attack Huainan at this time.
However, although Xu Shu was smart, he would never have imagined that there was such a thing as a game.
If there is no mistake, Yuan Shu has already entered the game and obtained the props in the game.
Huainan is rich in resources. It is for this reason that Element can purchase a large number of props and let Zhang Xun use them.
If the opponent does not have the props in the game, Lu Bu is confident that he will defeat him in one fell swoop while Huainan is empty.
But Lu Bu didn't have much confidence in the props in the game.
According to reports from spies, when Cao Cao burned the food for Huainan soldiers and horses, a strange phenomenon appeared in the sky, and two water dragons put out the fire.
Water Dragon Technique.
Lu Bu knew about this prop and the power of water dragon technique.
The problem is, Lu Bu doesn't know what more powerful props Yuan Shu has, so he's not sure.
And there is another question: Will Cao Mengde stand by and watch when he attacks Yuan Shu?
If Cao Mengde sends troops to help Yuan Shu, both of them have entered the game and obtained corresponding props. This is what Lu Bu is worried about.
So far, Lu Bu has not even gone out of the Novice Village in the game, so the props he has obtained are naturally not as many as those of Yuan Shu and Cao Cao.
If the two of them really join forces, it will definitely not be good news for Lu Bu.
When Xu Shu heard Lu Bu's question, he just smiled and said, "Marquis Wen, this is wrong. Our army is attacking Yuan Shu in Huainan in compliance with God's will and following orders. If Cao Mengde dares to join forces with Yuan Shu, there will be nothing to worry about." Lu Bu was stunned and asked in confusion, "Yuan Zhi, why is this?"
Xu Shu cupped his hands and said slowly, "If Cao Mengde really joins forces with Huainan Yuan Shu, we will immediately call the world to say that Cao Mengde is treasonous, violated the emperor's order, and wanted to do something disobedient. He joined the ranks of rebels.
By then, his status will no doubt be the same as that of the remnant of the Yellow Turban Army, so how can he manage Xuzhou, and how can the people of Xuzhou support a rebellious person?"
Hearing this, Xu Huang's eyes lit up, "If that's true, then it might not be that easy for Cao Mengde to recruit troops in Xuzhou."
Xu Shu nodded, "Yuan Shu was a treasonous person. The reason why he was able to gain a foothold in Huainan was because his family was prominent and he had countless people helping him to get this opportunity. However, despite this, it also caused dissatisfaction among the people and would definitely not last long.
Not long after Cao Mengde occupied Xuzhou, if he was also included in the ranks of rebels, I am afraid that the people of Xuzhou would never support him, and the local gentry would probably regard him as an enemy. By then, although Cao Mengde occupied Xuzhou, he would be unable to move forward.
Even more disadvantageous."
When Lu Bu heard Xu Shu's analysis, his eyes suddenly brightened and he said with a smile, "Yuan Zhi, if it is true as you said, it will be more beneficial to us if Cao Mengde goes to support Yuan Shu!"
Xu Shu nodded, "So, if Cao Mengde is smart, he will not help Yuan Shu, otherwise, he will never be able to stand up if he is thrown into the ranks of rebels."
Hearing this, Lu Bu couldn't help but laugh up to the sky, "Yuan Zhi, this is great. This time, we will attack Huainan. I want to see if Cao Mengde dares to help Yuan Shu."
Xu Shu cupped his hands and said slowly, "Marquis Wen, in this attack on Huainan, Cao Mengde is 70% sure that he will send troops to help Yuan Shu."
Uh!
Lu Bu was stunned, "Doesn't this mean that Cao Mengde will definitely help Yuan Shu?"
Xu Shu nodded, "So, our real target this time is actually Cao Mengde."
At this point, Xu Shu's tone paused, and then he continued, "Marquis Wen, let's attack Huainan first. If Cao Mengde turns a blind eye, we will directly destroy Huainan, occupy this rich land, and then surround Xuzhou.<
/p>
But if Cao Mengde helps Yuan Shu, we will immediately withdraw our troops, and then turn around and attack Xuzhou."
Lu Bu frowned, "In that case, why don't we attack Xuzhou first, but Huainan first?
In addition, if we attack Xuzhou and Yuan Shu rushes over to help us like Cao Mengde, wouldn’t we have to be attacked on both sides and be even more in danger?”
Xu Shu waved his hand, "Marquis Wen, if Cao Mengde doesn't help Yuan Shu, we will attack Huainan directly and occupy a large area of Huainan.
In fact, this situation is more beneficial to us, so why don’t we try it?
In addition, if we attack Cao Mengde, Marquis Wen is worried that Yuan Shu will help Cao Mengde. There is no need to worry about this problem, because Yuan Shu will not help Cao Mengde anyway."
Lu Bu was stunned and asked in confusion, "Why is this?"
Xu Shu cupped his hands and said with a smile, "Marquis Wen, when the Yuan Shu brothers fought, Cao Mengde joined Yuan Shao's camp and drove Yuan Shu from Nanyang County to Huainan. I'm afraid he will never forget this hatred.
And this time, tens of thousands of troops were defeated by Cao Mengde and suffered heavy losses. Yuan Shu was so narrow-minded, how could he forget this revenge?
If this matter were placed on someone else, it might be possible to help Cao Mengde, but Yuan Shu is aloof and self-absorbed, and no one takes him seriously. With his character, how could he possibly help Cao Mengde."
Speaking of this, Xu Shu suddenly sneered, "Based on the hatred between the two of them, maybe if we attack Cao Mengde, Yuan Shu will applaud us and hope that we will succeed. How could he miss this opportunity for revenge?" p>
After listening to Xu Shu's analysis, Lu Bu thought of Yuan Shu's character and nodded secretly in his heart.
If we follow the original history, what Xu Shu said is absolutely correct, but the problem is that Yuan Shu probably already knows the history. Will he still be as confused as before?
