Chapter 251 Deng Yu discusses the current situation!
At night, the lights are bright in the tent.
On the tea table, there was tea. Deng Yu sat on one side and Liu Xiu sat on the other side.
Looking at his former junior disciple, Liu Xiu looked dazed, but still said: "Deng Yu, you shouldn't have come!"
"But I'm still here!" Deng Yu said: "I will follow you when I go to Hebei. There are many heroes in the world, but you are the only one who can be called a hero, Liu Xiu!"
Liu Xiu was silent. For this reason and anything else, it was a bit pretentious.
"What's your strategy for going to Hebei?" Liu Xiu asked.
"There is no such thing as a strategy, it's just a matter of adapting to circumstances. If it works, I will make you a marquis and prime minister, and you will become the emperor; if it fails, you will die and I will be buried with you!" Deng Yu said: "However, it is still possible to talk big words!"
"The world is like a chess game. When it comes to the opening, Guanzhong takes the lead. At this moment, Gengshi Emperor occupies Guanzhong, Heluo Basin, Hedong in the north, and has Xilong as his back. If he can continue to occupy Bashu, he will definitely win the world. Fortunately,
Gongsun Shu occupied Bashu, but he restrained Emperor Gengshi..."
"However, once Emperor Gengshi purged the interior, occupied Bashu, and the world was at peace, even if my lord had the power to reach heaven, he would not be able to return to heaven! Therefore, the key for my lord to go to Hebei is to be fast, and use speed to defeat the slow. If the lord is in San
If Hebei is pacified in two years, we can compete with Emperor Gengshi for the world; if we pacify Hebei within five years, the chances of winning are slim, but there is still a chance; as for five years later, the overall situation of the world has been decided, and there is no chance anymore!"
"The master's game is too bad. At this moment, all the heroes in the world are divided into one side and there are countless powerful soldiers. However, the master went to Hebei alone. He has no troops and no territory."
In the fight for the world, heroes from all walks of life have outstanding talents and amazing strategies. The key is who takes the lead. As the saying goes, one step is faster, each step is faster, and finally a crushing advantage is formed.
At this point, Liu Xiu has already lost.
Having already lost at hand, I can only speed up, move forward quickly, and rush forward to catch up.
"That makes sense!" Liu Xiu nodded and suddenly thought of Liu Bei and Cao Cao.
When Cao Cao went south to Jingzhou, he already occupied two of the three places in the world. But at that time, Liu Bei had less than three thousand soldiers and horses, one civil servant Zhuge Liang, and three or five generals. They were not on the same level at all. Even later, Zhuge Liang made plans, but the timing
has been lost.
As the saying goes, Kong Ming found his master, but not the right time.
Now Liu Xiu's timing is not good either.
The only good thing is that Emperor Gengshi was not Cao Cao.
The emperor Gengshi was not beaten, but elected.
The elected emperor often has little power and will fight for power with powerful ministers, which will cause instability in the court. If it were a peaceful era, this would not be a big problem; but now, when the world is uncertain and the heroes are competing, civil strife continues.
Big trouble.
"The land of Hebei is surrounded by mountains and seas on three sides, with plains to the south and the Yanshan Mountains to the north to resist the invasion of northern nomads and shield the security of Hebei and even the Central Plains. To the west are the Taihang Mountains and the Taihang Eighths.
There are several rivers in the south of Hebei, running from west to east, such as Juma River, Hutuo River, Zhangshui River, etc., but in terms of geographical location and defense, they are not as dangerous as mountains and rivers."
"The terrain of Hebei is not as good as that of Guanzhong. To the east, we have to defend the Eighth Route of Taihang. If we lose a pass, Hebei is in crisis; to the north, we have to defend against the invasion of nomadic tribes, and a large army must be stationed for defense; as for the south, relying on a few rivers, there is no way to block it at all.
Don’t stop the enemy!”
"Hebei's terrain is destined to be conducive to offense but not conducive to defense!"
"Send a general to the north to guard against the Huns and protect your back; then focus on sending troops to Hedong. Only by occupying Hedong can Hebei feel safe; then, attack Luoyang and advance into Guanzhong. Use Guanzhong as a barrier to stop the Huns.
Bashu, Longshang; and in the east, attack Shandong, Xuzhou, Jianghuai, Nanyang, Jingzhou and other places!"
"Defend in the west and attack in the east, first easy and then difficult, advance step by step, fight quickly and decide quickly, don't fight a protracted war!"
Deng Yu stood up and talked about strategic principles.
The essence of war is to rise quickly, to have the capital to compete with the enemy; to attack the enemy quickly, without giving the enemy a chance to recuperate and consolidate the territory; to attack quickly, to burn the flames of war on the enemy's territory, without giving the enemy a chance to grow stronger.
A separatist regime only took three months to establish; a patterned regime took seven years to establish.
Obviously, the latter is more difficult to defeat.
Quickly destroying the enemy can cover up internal contradictions and cover up all its own shortcomings.
"Lord, if we are based in Hebei, we will inevitably face a three-front battle. The situation will inevitably be crisis. If we cannot decide quickly, we will definitely be defeated!" Deng Yu finally warned.
Taking Hebei as its base is really not a good place to conquer the world.
In history, Yuan Shao, Dou Jiande, etc. all failed, and we should learn from them.
Historically, Germany was very powerful, but faced a three-front battle in World War I and was quickly dragged to death; during World War II, when the Normandy landings and the opening of the second battlefield opened up, Germany fought on two fronts and persisted for more than a year, but was also defeated.
When fighting a war, it is best not to fight on two or three fronts, but to concentrate your forces and fight on one front.
Guanzhong, which occupies the terrain advantage, is often a front-line battle; Hebei is a front-line battle; and Hebei has poor terrain and bad luck, so it often becomes a third-line battle.
The situation was a little bad, but I thought of Cao Cao again.
Historically, Cao Cao was surrounded by enemies on all sides, and the situation was worse than his, but he was still divided into three parts of the world. If Cao Cao's character was not too bad, he would waste every time he won, and lose the battle every time he lost; if he lost a battle, he would be humble, and he would win the battle.
Often there are many victories and few defeats.
It is impossible to say that Cao Cao can dominate the world.
"Don't waste, don't waste!" Liu Xiu warned himself: "If you win, don't waste; if you fail, don't be discouraged!"
…………
Time passed and the troops continued to move north.
There is no military power, no territory, and the power is extremely weak, so it can only advertise.
Under the advice of Deng Yu and Feng Yi, they continued to promote policies along the way. One was to promote the court's policies, the other was to promote the land to the tiller, and the third was to promote Liu Xiu's achievements.
If you don’t have territory or troops, then let’s just fool around!
Life is about cheating, and a certain family may see that he is good and make risky investments.
Along the way, promoting and deceiving all the way, Liu Xiu was very embarrassed. He felt that he was just a pyramid schemer, and he did not know who he had deceived onto the ship.
It should be said that there were already two fools who were tricked into the ship by him, one was Feng Yi and the other was Deng Yu.
Jiang Taigong is fishing, and those who wish will take the bait!
The king is like this, how can the ministers not be like this!
Whether it was Deng Yu or Feng Yi, they knew that if they followed him, they would have a narrow escape from death and their future would be slim. Failure was the normal rhythm and success was accidental, but they still followed him without hesitation.
