Nine hundred and seventeenth chapters take advantage of the road to cut Guo
Chapter 917: Taking advantage of the road to conquer Guo
Cheng Yu glanced at Liu Bei in front of him, and directly proposed the strategy of using the road to attack Guo. Now he allowed Liu Yan to go crazy and captured Liu Yan directly. Then he used his mistake to use the power of the southern barbarians to resist Yuan Shu, and then waited until Yuan Shu was defeated.
After conquering Yizhou, they then went south to conquer the Southern Barbarians and regain all the lost territory.
"Is this really good?"
After hearing Cheng Yu's words, Liu Bei was also stunned. Is this really good?
"My lord, there is nothing wrong with it. If Liu Yan continues to mess with the current situation, then Yizhou may really be doomed. Instead of it being like this, it is better to replace it and hold Yizhou in our hands so as to save the last resort for the Han Dynasty.
of this territory.”
Cheng Yu shook his head. Even if Liu Bei didn't want to do it now, the timing was just right.
"Even if we can capture Liu Yan, I'm afraid Yizhou won't obey us, and Yuan Shu won't be able to gain advantage by then."
Cheng Yu was a little hesitant when he said this to Liu Bei. Indeed, the entire Han Dynasty now only had a piece of pure land like Yizhou. If it was lost to Liu Yan, he would be ashamed of his ancestors.
But he is just an outsider. He has no imperial title and no support from the nobles. So what if he can capture Yizhou?
In the end, Yuan Shu was advantaged.
"Lord, it's okay. As long as we take Chengdu and declare Liu Yan's crime of uniting with the barbarians, I believe that the Yizhou nobles will not side with Liu Yan. After all, if this one is not done well, it will be infamy for thousands of years. I am 80% sure.
Let you take over Yizhou."
Facing Liu Bei's question, Cheng Yu smiled slightly. Although the big man was very receptive, if someone invited foreigners to invade, he would definitely be despised by thousands of people. This is why Liu Yan did not dare to speak out and only let Dong help him go.
The reason for Nanman.
"Then let's do this. Zhao Yunchang and Yide will come back, and we will lead our troops north to Chengdu."
Since Cheng Yu has so much confidence, Liu Bei doesn't want to sit back and watch Yizhou disappear.
"My lord is wise."
Hearing that Liu Bei agreed, Cheng Yu was also filled with excitement. He had been thinking about it for so long, but he didn't expect that Liu Yan would present this opportunity to him. As the saying goes, if God wants to give it to him, if he doesn't take it, he will go against heaven.
Liu Bei's men immediately went to summon Guan Yu and Zhang Fei from the front line, and then marched north towards Chengdu with more than 50,000 soldiers. Dong Fu, on the other hand, left Guangchang County directly after a short rest and headed towards the southern barbarian territory.
"The cave master discovered that a Han army of more than a thousand people was heading towards our territory."
Dong Fu led his people deep into the hinterland of the Southern Barbarians, and was immediately discovered by the men and horses under Dong Tanu, one of the three marshals.
"More than a thousand Han troops dare to invade my territory, Dong Tanu. Come, prepare to attack with me."
Hearing that more than a thousand Han troops dared to come over, Dong Tanu immediately became angry. If you kill a large army, I can't afford to offend you, but if thousands of people come at night, wouldn't that mean you are looking down on yourself?
second hole
Under Dong Tanu's command, there were more than 10,000 clan members and more than 5,000 southern barbarian soldiers in the third cave. Under his leadership, he went directly through the jungle to ambush Dong Fu.
"Sir, we have no clue where this Southern Barbarian tribe is. How can we find it?"
The school lieutenant responsible for guarding Dong Fu came to his carriage and asked him with doubtful eyes.
"It is simply unrealistic to find the Southern Barbarians, so we can only wait for them to come and find us."
After listening to the captain's words, Dong Fu could only shake his head. The Nanman people were hiding in the mountains and forests. If they were really easy to find, they would have sent troops to exterminate them long ago. They could still wait for them to come out to invade Yizhou territory all day long.
"I see."
The school captain glanced at Dong Fu's carriage and nodded directly. Indeed, as he said, the biggest difficulty for the Southern Barbarians was not how powerful their soldiers and horses were, but the fact that they could not be found at all.
Even if I dig into the mountain, I can't find it.
Dong Fu's people went all the way south, unaware that they had been targeted by Dong Tanu in the second cave. Their troops were lying in ambush in the surrounding mountains and forests, waiting for their arrival.
"kill."
Seeing that the Han army was ambushing him, Dong Tanu jumped up and led his soldiers and horses to kill them.
"kill."
"kill."
"woo woo woo woo."
A group of southern barbarian soldiers shouted like savages and rushed out of the mountain forest, killing Dong Fu's soldiers and horses.
"There is an ambush and defense."
Hearing the shouts of killing all over the mountains and plains, the captain was frightened and quickly ordered the soldiers to defend.
One thousand cavalrymen all dismounted, relying on their war horses, and circled around Dong Fu's chariot to protect them in the middle position. At the same time, their shields were outside, their bows and crossbows were cocked, and they were ready to attack at any time.
"Liu Jue, ordered the soldiers not to fire arrows, and shouted that I want to see their leader."
Hearing the cry of killing, Dong Fu directly ordered the school captain Liu Jue not to shoot arrows, and at the same time called for a meeting with Dong Tanu.
"Don't start a war. We are envoys under the command of Master Liu Yan, the Mu of Yizhou, and we want to meet your leader."
"Don't start a war. We are envoys under the command of Master Liu Yan, the Mu of Yizhou, and we want to meet your leader."
"Don't start a war. We are envoys under the command of Master Liu Yan, the Mu of Yizhou, and we want to meet your leader."
Hearing the shouts of the Han people on the opposite side, the news soon reached Dong Tanu's ears from soldiers.
"What?
You said they said they were Liu Yan's envoys and wanted to see me?"
After hearing the news about the soldiers, Dong Tanu was also confused. He didn't understand what the other party meant and why he wanted to meet him.
“Cave Master, what should I do?
To kill or not to kill?”
Glancing at Dong Tanu, a Nanman general asked him directly.
"Stop the attack for now and let me go and see what this caller wants to do."
After hearing Dong Tanu's order, the southern barbarian soldiers did not attack, but surrounded Dong Fu's people. Then the crowd slowly moved aside, and Dong Tunu appeared in front of Dong Fu's people.
"I am Dong Tanu, the master of the third cave, and you are Liu Yan's envoy?
Tell me, what do you want to do?"
After hearing Dong Tanu's words, Dong Fu also came out of the carriage directly and looked at the barbarian in front of him from a distance.
"I am engaged in Dong Fu from Yizhou. I came here to see His Majesty the King of the Southern Barbarians and talk to him about something important."
Dong Fu cupped his fists and saluted Dong Tanu, directly expressing his wishes.
"What kind of official is Yizhou?
If you want to ask to see our Southern Barbarian King, just tell me what's wrong. If it's just a trivial matter, forget it. Isn't it right for me to eat you right away?"
After hearing Dong Fu's words, Dong Tanu couldn't help but wonder, what the hell is Yizhou engaged in? Is it big?
"I'm here on behalf of Liu Zhoumu. I want to discuss the truce with the Southern Barbarian King. I also hope that the cave master can make a recommendation."
Faced with Dong Tanu's doubts, Dong Fu felt a pain in his forehead. How could he be inferior to one person in Yizhou and superior to ten thousand people? But here, no one even knew who he was. What the hell?
A barbarian, a complete barbarian.
"armistice?
It seems that we have been robbing you all the time, do you dare to fight us?"
Looking at Dong Fu, Dong Tanu became even more confused. To be honest, he really didn't know what benefits a truce would bring to him, and the Han army had no ability to enter the mountains to attack him. Is a man who was passively beaten qualified to talk about a truce?
"There are some things that I can't express clearly. Can we talk about it in private?"
Glancing at the cavalry beside him, Dong Fu also had a headache. Should he say in front of so many soldiers that he would hand over the land of three counties to the barbarians?
