Chapter 182: Driving the tiger and swallowing the wolf

"Is it you, General Xunben? Let's get straight to the point. What's the matter with General Xunben?"

Chen Youliang looked at the person in front of him who was looking for him, and went straight to the point and told him to keep the story short. After all, Chen Youliang didn't have so much time to waste now. He took advantage of Wang Bo going down the mountain to fight the Han army, speeding up to poach Wang Bo and expand his army.

The generals under your command are the key!

The person who was looking for Chen Youliang was a capable general who came from three places across the river and sea. He took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Chen Youliang. Then he quickly turned around and ran away, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Chen Youliang touched the letter that was still warm in his hand and watched with surprise as the person who sent the letter escaped...

"Who is this letter from?"

At this time, Chen Youliang was extremely confused, thinking deeply about what would be written in this letter! He opened the letter lightly, took it out and read it carefully.

This letter begins with a compliment to Chen Youliang, and then states the pros and cons of the current situation, as well as an analysis of Chishiro Wang Bo and his soldiers.

"If General Chen Youliang can temporarily put aside his hatred and cooperate with the Han army to destroy the Taishan bandit king Bo's army, then the Han army will allow General Chen Youliang to gather Wang Bo's soldiers and give him ten days to rest in order to withdraw from Taishan County and no longer invade Yuzhou.

And Xuzhou..."

These few sentences are the key point of the letter!

Whether to cooperate with the Han army or not, Chen Youliang was in a dilemma as to what he should do. He read the content at the back of the letter hastily, then stuffed it into his arms and rushed to the military advisor and poisonous scholar Li Chui, ready to go.

Ask him what he thinks.

Chen Youliang's behavior surprised all the soldiers, but they couldn't ask too much and could only do their own thing well.

Within a quarter of an hour, Chen Youliang hurriedly arrived at Li Chui's residence, lightly knocked on his door, then pushed the door open and told Li Chui what had just happened.

Then he took out the letter from his arms and handed it to Li Chui, letting him read it and wanting to hear his opinion!

I saw Li Chui squinting his eyes and reading the contents of the letter at a glance. When he saw that the Han army was going to cooperate with Chen Youliang, he couldn't help but be a little stunned.

What Li Chui was thinking was that after the Han army killed Chen Sheng, they still had the guts to discuss cooperation with Chen Youliang? Maybe he was missing a nerve...

Suddenly Li lowered his head and looked into Chen Youliang's eyes.

Chen Youliang's eyes seemed to be full of expectation and he had no idea of ​​revenge for Chen Sheng. This shocked Li Chui, and then he sighed in his heart. In the face of absolute interests, Chen Youliang was still moved by the revenge of killing his brother...

"My lord, what do you think of the death of the late master?"

Li Chui pretended to mention it casually, wanting to see what Chen Youliang's attitude was. He saw Chen Youliang's eyes staring into Li Chui's eyes, and he said

"Sir, do you think that I have forgotten the revenge of killing my brother? This is absolutely impossible! The hatred of killing my brother is irreconcilable, and I will definitely kill the bandit army in the future to pay tribute to my brother's spirit in heaven.

Now I am just preparing to use the Han army to deal with Wang Bo. Wouldn't it be great to gather Wang Bo's army at the beginning of the war, and then immediately move to the wrong place, heading north to Qingzhou or west to Yanzhou?"

Chen Youliang still has a strategic mind, and he can see through the Han army's thoughts at a glance. Doesn't the Han army just want to wipe out the Taishan bandit King Bo, and then drive him away? Since the interests are so great, it is not impossible to agree.

Han army...

At this time, the poisonous scholar Li Chui looked at Chen Youliang with admiration, and then he closed his eyes and meditated, secretly thinking about the real purpose of the Han army's plan!

"Perhaps the Han army wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and reap the benefits of the fire on the other side. When we raised troops to rebel against Wang Bo, the Han army suddenly withdrew, causing Wang Bo to return.

Then we can just eat Coptis chinensis while being dumb, and it will be very difficult for us!"

Li Chui was indeed a very intelligent man, and he got the idea as soon as he spoke. What he thought was indeed similar to what the Han army thought, but the Han army Qi Jiguang, Dong Zhao and others really wanted to kill the Taishan bandit King Bo, so he said

What I said was that the sudden withdrawal of the Han army was really overly worrying and completely unfounded...

Chen Youliang nodded in agreement, and then approached Li Chui. The two of them analyzed the current confrontation between the Han army and Wang Bo! At this time, the confrontation between the Han army and Wang Bo was the perfect way for him to lead the army and defeat the Taishan bandits.

Timing, if you don’t seize this opportunity, you won’t know how long it will take to seize it again.

At this time, regardless of whether the Han army was really dealing with Wang Bo or pretending to be dealing with Wang Bo, Wang Bo had already descended from Mount Tai. This was an excellent opportunity, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

"Sir, what should we do? If Wang Bo confronts the Han army, it will take at least five days to get the result. What should we do in these five days?"

Chen Youliang was unwilling to let go of this opportunity, so he asked military advisor Li Chui if there was any way to ensure his victory and successfully annex the Taishan bandit king Bo's army in five days.

Li Chui was silent in thought and simply asked which of Chen Youliang's subordinates had good relations with Wang Bo during this period.

"This... to be honest, sir, I have made friends with three generals, Zhou Wenju, Ran Zhao, and Ning Daoming, many times during this period, and I have become brothers with them!

When they were drinking together a few days ago, the three of them got drunk alone and complained that the wise man and the king were selfish, did great things but cherished their lives, and forgot their lives when they saw small profits. They were not heroes. They didn't recognize talents, didn't make good use of them, and were loyal.

You can't tell the difference between adultery and adultery..."

Regarding these three generals, Chen Youliang is 90% sure that he can recruit them into his camp.

In addition to these three generals, Chen Youliang also visited and made friends with Gao Yaxian, Lu Nan, Liu Shiche, and Lou Shiqian. From the conversation, Chen Youliang learned that these four people expressed their disdain for Wang Bo's lack of loyalty and neglect of the old minister!

Therefore, Chen Youliang believed that as long as he used Wang Bo's mistake of not knowing how to hire people as an entry point to arouse deep resonance in their hearts, and then show interest in the four generals, he could take advantage of the situation and recruit the four people to join his camp.

Nearly half of Wang Bo's subordinates were taken over by Chen Youliang, which brought Chen Youliang to control two-fifths of the Taishan Army's military power. Coupled with Chen Youliang's own troops and generals, the chance of a successful merger was extremely high!

Li Chui's eyes were bright, and he looked at Chen Youliang with recognition in his eyes. At this time, the lord Chen Youliang was much more capable than the previous lord Chen Sheng... The world is so big that it is not a bad idea for his own lord Chen Youliang to compete with all the heroes!

At this time, Li Chui had completely pledged his allegiance to Chen Youliang. He reminded Chen Youliang in a low voice that Wang Bo's military advisor Liu Lancheng was extremely powerful and his abilities were as good as his own. If he wanted to annex Wang Bo of Mount Tai, then this guy would be the one.

The obstacles must be solved. If not handled well, the whole game may be lost!

Let me briefly introduce Liu Lancheng, one of the seventy-two smokers.

During the Sui Dynasty, he served as the secretary of Poyang County. He dabbled in classics and historical books and was able to comment on success or failure.

With a fierce and cunning temperament, he saw that the world was about to be in chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty, and transportation was inconvenient. At that time, Beihai County was rich, and Liu Lancheng envied it, so he colluded with strong men to conquer the cities in his hometown.

During the Wude period, Li Shentong, king of Huai'an, served as the pacifying ambassador of Shandong Province, and Liu Lan led his clan members to surrender. He was promoted to Shangshu Wailang for his merits.

"Zizhi Tongjian" records are different, saying that Liu Lancheng passed the Ming Dynasty and helped defend Beihai County when Qi Gongshun attacked Beihai County.

Later, he was framed by Shuzuo of the Song Dynasty and took refuge with Qi Gongshun. He used the strategy of suspicious soldiers to help Qi Gongshun capture Beihai County.

Liu Lancheng kept the young and old in peace, treated the county officials courteously, and treated Song Shuzuo with the same courtesy as before. He also helped Qi Gongshun defeat Hailing Zang Junxiang, followed Qi Gongshun to defect to Li Mi, but Li Mi failed and defected to Tang Dynasty Li Shentong...
