On the day Sun Quan left Yizhou, a piece of news quickly spread throughout the world...
The emperor of the Han Dynasty fell into the hands of thieves, and the King of Hanzhong stumbled upon the national treasure "Jade Seal of the Nation". Thinking that he had been greatly favored by the late emperor, the world was in chaos, and the King of Hanzhong temporarily kept the national treasure "The Jade Seal of the Nation" in the name of Jiuxi, to take care of the world, and strive to
To save the Han Dynasty, it was in danger. Yuan Shao, the Marquis of Qixiang, bullied heaven and earth, killed people, occupied the Central Plains area, and was still inadequate, and tried to attack the southern part of Jingzhou. Now the King of Hanzhong ordered Yuan Shao to withdraw in the name of "Jade Seal of the Kingdom".
.Otherwise, a righteous teacher will be promoted and punished by heaven!
As soon as this news came out, the world was in an uproar, and everyone was watching! The King of Hanzhong, who had just destroyed the eight princes, finally took action again. This time, Yuan Shao attacked the family of Sun Jian, the sworn brother of the King of Hanzhong. The Sun family in Jingnan was in danger, and the King of Hanzhong sent troops to rescue him.
As expected, there is nothing surprising. However, after hearing the national treasure "Jade Seal of the Nation", I realized that the King of Hanzhong had not announced the dispatch of troops until now. It turned out to be reinforcements obtained by the Sun family in exchange for the "Jade Seal of the Nation". It seems that the Sun family and Hanzhong
The relationship between the king and the king is not as good as expected, at least the King of Hanzhong is not as righteous as imagined! However, this is the idea of a few thoughtful people. The King of Hanzhong's generous words of justice are enough to deal with ordinary people!
What everyone is most interested in now is the confrontation between the King of Hanzhong and the Marquis of Qixiang. It can also be said to be a decisive battle for the title of "the best prince in the world". After all, in terms of superficial power, the King of Hanzhong has the advantage of a vast land, sparsely populated areas, remoteness and harsh conditions.
The territory is larger than that of Qixianghou, and it has been in business for a long time and is deeply rooted. However, Qixianghou sits on the richest and most prosperous territory in the Central Plains, and the Yuan family is also famous in the world.
The family is full of talents and talents. In terms of manpower and financial resources, it is only strong but not weak. And because of the sudden rise of the Qixiang princes, the Sun family, which was originally recognized as the second prince, is about to be wiped out. It is quite possible to replace the King of Hanzhong and become the number one prince in the world.
trend!
Of course, laymen watch the excitement, while experts watch the door. A battle between at least two of the most powerful princes today is what the other princes in the world are most willing to see. Whoever wins and who loses is beneficial to them. If they can fight in such a way that both sides suffer, it is even more important.
Perfect!
At the same time that the King of Hanzhong issued the announcement, an edict was also quickly sent to Yuan Shao's headquarters... Who, with a piece of paper stamped with a blackmail seal, asked our army to withdraw! This is too much! Everyone!
Do you have any suggestions?"
Although the war in Jingnan is raging and the situation is tense. However, Yuan Shao does not have the habit of leading personal expeditions. He still huddles in Nanyang, where he dominates the magpie's nest, "strategizing." As soon as he receives the edict from the King of Hanzhong, he immediately snaps the case and starts to curse! However, although Yuan Shao has been messing around recently
Even though he is prosperous, he still doesn’t have the nerve to ask for everyone’s opinions!
In fact, the main reason was the King of Hanzhong's long-standing prestige and intimidation. Let's not talk about other deeds. Think about the millions of troops of his brother Yuan Shu, who faced the King of Hanzhong's army of less than 50,000. In the end, they were all beaten without any information.
No, even his hometown was robbed by him. To say that the King of Hanzhong has no shadow in Yuan Shao’s heart is definitely Yuan Shao deceiving himself!
"My lord, calm down! The world is no longer what it used to be. My lord dominates the Central Plains and is invincible. Even the Sun family of Jiangdong Tigers has been overturned. The king of Hanzhong is far away in Yizhou, and we have an expedition.
There is no need to worry at all! This order is just an excuse for the King of Hanzhong, and there is no need to pay attention to it! However, it confirms the situation that the King of Hanzhong is about to join the battle. And now our army only needs to determine the attitude of the King of Hanzhong. His ultimate goal is
They are just assisting the Sun family to resist our army. Or are they trying to invade the Central Plains? This is the key point!"
Before the edict arrived, the news released by the King of Hanzhong was already known to the world. Yuan Shao's generals did not show any surprise. After a period of silence, Yuan Shao's most capable staff member Guo Tu finally spoke up. He had to admit that although Guo Tu was a little
He is suspected of being a villain and a sycophant, but he still has some abilities, which should not be underestimated!
"What Gongze said is true. The highway was reckless just now! So what does Gongze think the ultimate goal of the King of Hanzhong is?"
Nowadays, Yuan Shao is still very polite and virtuous. The novels of Corporal are compiled and published in a tolerant and self-disciplined place. After hearing Guo Tu’s explanation, he immediately regained a lot of clarity. He humbly asked for advice!
"Empty words. Words have no basis! The main thing is to speak with facts. The King of Hanzhong wants to send troops to Jingnan. The only way is to go up the river. And our important cities of Yiling, Jiangling and Baling just guard the Yangtze River Basin. Our army only needs heavy troops.
By guarding three throats, the army of the King of Hanzhong can be kept out of the situation. To put it a step back, even if the Yangtze River is vast and difficult to block, it can also be used to see the attitude of the King of Hanzhong. If the army of the King of Hanzhong directly rushes through the pass, it means that in the end it will
The purpose is just to help the Sun family resist our army; if they advance step by step and slowly, then they intend to invade the Central Plains!"
Guo Tu seemed to enjoy Yuan Shao's admiration and the envy and jealous eyes of the generals. He smoothed his chin moustache with both hands and shouted confidently!
"Yes! What Gongze said makes sense! In that case, if the King of Hanzhong is just rescuing the people, what should our army do? If he intends to invade the Central Plains, how should our army respond?"
Yuan Shao is a bit of a villain, but he is not a fool. Guo Tu only said to distinguish the attitude of the King of Hanzhong, but did not say how to deal with it. Yuan Shao simply asked directly!
Guo Tu was speechless for a moment. If asked, he really didn't have much confidence in facing the King of Hanzhong. It was best not to fight! And he hadn't even written a word about the eight characters yet. He didn't even know the enemy's situation. How could he know how to deal with it? But now
Yuan Shaozheng was in high spirits. That should never be said!
"I'm telling you, my lord! Before we conquered Jingnan, our army did it in the name of recovering the national treasure. Now that it has been determined that the national treasure belongs to the King of Hanzhong, why don't our army take advantage of the opportunity to go downhill? This way, the King of Hanzhong has no excuse to send troops, and we can also
It occupies a small half of Jingnan. It is not a loss! There are three reasons for this: First, Jingnan has many waterways, and the south is vast and sparsely populated. However, our base is in the north, and the south is unfavorable. The soldiers are not familiar with water warfare.
As we occupy the fertile land of the Central Plains, the current plan is to consolidate the results and then expand. Secondly, Changsha is the foundation of the Sun family. Now most of the Sun family's military strength is gathered in Changsha. With the support of the King of Hanzhong, our army has a good chance of winning.
Not big. Unless we can intercept the King of Hanzhong, but the Yangtze River basin is vast, there is little hope of intercepting the King of Hanzhong. Third, now Lu Bu in the north is looking at the river to gain momentum, Cao Cao in the northeast is ready to make a move, and Liu Bei in the east is ready to attack. If we win this battle, then we will win.
If you lose, you will be surrounded by enemies on all sides, lest the princes from all walks of life will add insult to injury."
Guo Tu was silent, and others naturally couldn't say anything. The atmosphere fell into silence for a moment! An old man with gray hair and beard suddenly came out and spoke sternly! It was Tian Feng, but to put it bluntly,
In a word, there is no chance of winning this battle, so don’t fight it! But it’s not that Tian Feng is timid, he is just telling the truth! Yuan Jun is not good at water warfare, and he is a new force with internal instability. If it were not for his
The army was large in number and powerful, and the popular sentiment in Jingnan was unstable, which allowed Yuan Jun to take advantage of the loophole. Even without the King of Hanzhong, it was hard to say who would win. At first, Jingnan was not captured in one go, but now a fierce force across the river has been added.
Dragon, cooperate with the local snakes to attack from both front and back. In fact, the war does not need to be fought, the outcome is already determined!
"Bold! What does Yuan Hao want to do to shake the morale of the army in this way? Now that the war has not started, he is fighting cowardly, gaining the ambition of others and destroying his own prestige!"
As soon as Tian Feng finished speaking, before Yuan Shao could react, there was a burst of shouting in the hall, but Xu You, one of Yuan Shao's staff, jumped out, glaring and questioning!
He was just saying his own thoughts, and being slapped with such a big label, Tian Feng's lips squirmed a few times, and it was difficult to refute for a while. Thinking about it for himself, he was indeed suspected of shaking the morale of the army. He looked up at Yuan Shao, and saw that Yuan Shao was obviously displeased.
With such a look on his face, Tian Feng secretly sighed in his heart and simply responded with silence, either acquiescing or not disdaining to argue!
"Okay! Yuan Hao was just confused for a moment, and his starting point is still good. You don't need to mind. But it's just this once, and it won't be the same next time!"
Yuan Shao's displeased and taboo eyes flashed away, and he immediately returned to a tolerant and kind expression, and he pretended to be generous and defended Tian Feng!
"Thank you, Lord, for your tolerance and understanding!"
When it comes to this matter, it is useless to talk more. Tian Feng said no more, thanked him, and then left sadly!
"Zi Yuan (Xu You) said this. I think he had a plan in mind. I wonder what Zi Yuan thinks?"
After Tian Feng withdrew, Yuan Shao did not pursue any further questions. Instead, he smiled and looked at Xu You who jumped out and asked!
Xu You was stunned for a moment, his expression stiff. This time the flattery went straight to the horse's legs! You're so good, why are you pretending to be a big-tailed wolf? Well, now that the master is asking, it won't work if you don't say anything. I have to admit that although Xu You is greedy for money,
He is a human being, but he still has strategy and quick wit. His mind suddenly changed, and he immediately raised his head and said loudly:
"Actually, now I can't wait to be frightened by the reputation of the King of Hanzhong. Whether the King of Hanzhong can support the Sun family in time is still a question! It's too early for us to worry. I suggest that the lord heavily guards the cities in the Yangtze River Basin and sets up checkpoints, so that even if they are blocked
If the King of Hanzhong's army cannot be restrained, he will suffer heavy losses and half of them will be killed without fighting! At the same time, he ordered the generals Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhu Ling, Gao Gan, Tian Chou and other generals who are currently besieging Changsha to attack with all their strength, and strive to capture Changsha when the King of Hanzhong arrives.
, As a result, all the cities on the waterways are in our hands. Even if the army of the King of Hanzhong breaks out to support, there is no way to save them. They can only fight on land and water. However, the reinforcements of the King of Hanzhong are tired from far away, unfamiliar with the place, and have difficulties in logistical supplies.
The road back is cut off, so our army only needs to hold on to the city and hold off the army of the King of Hanzhong. Perhaps we can defeat the enemy without fighting!"
After talking, Xu You became more fluent and confident as he spoke. He seemed to have defeated the army of the King of Hanzhong and was as proud as a marshal returning in triumph!
The generals of the Yuan Army, including Yuan Shao, also nodded repeatedly after hearing this, and immediately looked at Xu You with admiration. Although Xu You was a bit greedy and shameless, he did have a few brushes. This might not be the best way to deal with the powerful and difficult King of Hanzhong.
…
"That's very good. This plan was proposed by Ziyuan. Ziyuan will be fully responsible for intercepting and blocking the army of the King of Hanzhong. Does anyone have any objections?"
"My subordinate seconded the proposal!"
Following a burst of uproar, Xu You was stunned again...
Does this count as shooting oneself in the foot...
