Chapter 584 Isn't this the meaning of my existence?
In the seventh year of the New Qin Dynasty (AD 198), in early February, the earth quietly thawed and everything returned to spring. The Central Plains was in a state of prosperity everywhere. The southern land, which should have been more vibrant, was always under the cloud of war.
Although thanks to the goodness of God, Yuan Jiujiu wanted to make a desperate move after communicating with Yan Xiang that day, but the heavy snow that suddenly swept through Jingyang gave him nearly a month of buffer time, allowing him to
Sufficient preparation and time to calm down. But even a month of calmness still did not eliminate his decision to counterattack Jingzhou at all costs.
Especially when they got to Jiangxia City, because of the sudden heavy snow, Lei Bo, who had joined forces with Wenpin, Liu Pan, and Huang Zhong, managed to hold on to Jiangxia City and borrowed
At that time, he stabilized his position and gathered the Yuan army from all directions, forcing the three of them to cease their activities and stop the siege of Jiangxia City. Yuan Shu became more confident in attacking Jingzhou and breaking the current predicament.
On the official road at the junction of Shouchun and Jiangxia, a clearly visible long dragon rolled up the smoke and moved quickly towards Jiangxia City. This was Yuan Shu who immediately gathered and dispatched to rescue Jiangxia and counterattack after the weather got warmer.
Jingzhou's elite army.
The army was assembled. In addition to leaving Yan Xiang to lead the troops stationed in various places to take charge of the rear, maintain the defense line and defend Huainan, waiting for Cao Cao and Liu Bei to attack, Yuan Shu basically brought all his family members with him to kill him.
The desperate struggle for survival is heading towards the territory of Jingzhou, and the situation is bound to be broken in one fell swoop.
Yuan Shu made a sudden move and raised his troops to go south, but they were stopped by the iron barrel defense line created by Yan Xiang and Ji Ling who were well prepared. Cao Cao, Liu Bei and Liu Bei's troops on the front line of Cai Cai and A were naturally not going to let go of this golden opportunity. Just after getting
Yuan Shu's army entered Jiangxia territory
In the first moment, Cao Cao and Liu Bei sent out troops at the same time as if they were in sync with each other. They captured Cai Cai and Ping'a all the way. Regardless of casualties, they attacked fiercely and quickly took down the defense line, which had been drained of its strength and whose defensive capabilities were greatly damaged.
, the troops approached Shouchun.
Seven days passed by in the blink of an eye. Ying Zige received the Jingzhou information report from the Black Ice Platform in Luoyang City on time. He glanced at it with a look of surprise on his face. Yuan Shu's thoughts are really unexpected sometimes.
Eye
Seeing that the base camp was being violently attacked and was in danger of overthrowing at any time, he actually dared to mobilize elite forces, abandon defense and continue to launch an attack on Jingzhou. This kind of psychological quality is worthy of his status as a legitimate son of a famous family and a heroic leader.
However, after thinking about it carefully, Ying Zige had to admit that Yuan Shu's choice at this time was actually a way to survive in death. With Huainan's current state, facing the siege of three princes, what could he do?
There are actually only two options: defense and offense.
Defending the enemy was the best choice, but the sudden death of Ji Ling, a general with great reputation in Yuan's army, made Yuan Shu unable to continue to choose this path no matter what. Firstly, he was worried about the morale of the army, and secondly, he was worried about the people.
Any loss of either of them would be nothing more than a slow death for Yuan Shu.
Therefore, he could only choose to attack this road, survive in death, and take the lead to stabilize the crumbling morale of the army and the hearts of the people. Among the two Liu and one cao, Liu Bei's Xuzhou was originally the best choice, but Xuzhou
Approaching the Qin army, Yuan Shu was not ready for a head-on confrontation with Ying Zige at this time. Liu Bei was an important force for Yuan Shu to contain the Qin army.
Secondly, Yuan Jun and Liu Biao have been fighting for a long time, and their hatred is deep-rooted. In addition, Ji Ling died in the battle, and the city of Jiangxia is still in Lei Bo's hands. He personally led the troops to attack, which might not be able to activate the fighting spirit of his troops. Once Jiangxia is stabilized, then
After capturing Jiangling City, the basic defense line will be stable and we will return with a great victory. Even if Huainan is lost, only Shouchun will still be alive.
Now, Yuan Shu was confident that he would beat Cao Cao and Liu Bei into small balls and leave Huainan happily. Even Shouchun City was lost. With the general trend, Yuan Shu thought that he would not be able to take it back in one battle, even because
It is not impossible for the Qin army, the common enemy of all princes in the world, to directly force Cao Cao back, and it is not impossible for Liu Bei.
Of course, all these are just Ying Zige's fleeting thoughts. As for what Yuan Shu's real thoughts are, Ying Zige himself doesn't dare to say that he can figure it out 100%, especially when he is facing one after another blows.
After the whole person became a little crazy, Ying Zige and Hei Bingtai became more cautious when trying to figure out what he had done.
Shaking his head, Ying Zige raised his head and glanced at Guo Jia, who was thoughtfully beside him, and handed over the information in his hand: "Fengxiao, look at this information. Yuan Jiujiu's thoughts sometimes are really...
It’s unexpected that it can be done like this.”
Hearing Ying Zige's comments, Guo Jia showed a smile and continued: "Actually, Jia thinks that Yuan Gongli's move may be a strategy to survive in death!"
Ying Zige smiled slightly and said, "What does being filial piety mean?"
Guo Jia knew that his ruler liked to scrutinize his subordinates again. He didn't believe that Ying Zige's wisdom could not analyze the situation Yuan Shu was facing now, as well as the pros and cons of such an approach. But what is clear is clear.
Guo Jia had no intention of interrupting his lord's interest, and
This is what a mastermind should do. What's more, one person is smart and the other is wise. Ying Zige's actions are also intended to learn from each other. Guo Jia thinks that his analysis of the situation and analysis of the situation are,
It might be possible to make it more detailed so that Ying Zige can see it more clearly.
With a faint smile, Guo Jia sat down facing Ying Zige and said: "Yuan Jiujiu can become the master of a party. Although it is inseparable from the resources of the Yuan family that he obtained as the direct son of the Yuan family, apart from his character flaws, he
His ability and reputation are not all without merit. Therefore, no matter how cruel and unwise Yuan Shu behaves, his subordinates have always been able to provide services to elites such as Yan Xiang, Zhang Xun, and Chen Ji."
"However, this time, Yuan Jiujiu has indeed crossed the line. It would be great if everything goes smoothly. After all, the southern aristocratic families have no shortage of losers. As long as they can remain strong, those southern aristocratic families will definitely join them one by one.
, wave the flag and shout
.However, in the face of Liu Jingsheng's sudden awakening, he launched a desperate counterattack. The Han River was defeated and Ji Ling died in battle. If it hadn't been for the heavy snowfall, Jiangxia, which he had just captured, would have also fallen. At that time, the so-called wall fell and everyone urged Yuan
The end of the highway is self-evident."
"However, even if God cooperates and gets a month's respite, Jiangxia is still in danger at this time. Yuan Jiujiu's previous rising momentum has obviously been curbed. Your Majesty thinks that in such a situation, those southerners
What will the family do?"
Ying Zige said calmly one after another: "You have evil intentions and are colluding with foreign enemies. Please surrender!"
"That's right!" Guo Jia nodded in agreement, "This is exactly the nature of a family, seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages. Therefore, Yuan Gongdao, the legitimate son of the largest family in the Han Dynasty, has actually understood this for a long time. So..."
"He has no choice!" Ying Zige finally said.
"Your Majesty is wise!" Guo Jia chuckled, and after complimenting him smoothly, he continued: "Actually, Your Majesty can also see that after Yuan Gongdao takes a step, there is only one road left, and he can move forward without hesitation.
That is the road to death.”
"And when the obstacles on this road appeared, he actually only had two options: one to attack and one to defend. Yan Xiang and Ji Ling chose to attack and defend in parallel for him, because with the assistance of these two right-hand men, with the Yuan family and
Yuan Jun’s foundation can do it.”
"It was indeed successful at first, but when Ji Ling died, it seemed that Yuan Shu could still choose between defense and attack. But in fact, defense was already a slow death, and he could only attack. Just like the day he proclaimed himself emperor
Normally, an unrelenting attack is the only way out for Yuan Jiujiu!"
Ying Zige nodded slowly. What Guo Jia said actually coincided with his own thoughts, and was even more detailed, allowing him to see it more carefully.
"This is the only road on the Yuan Highway. However, with such a desperate effort, after this battle, the vitality of the two Huaihe Rivers will be seriously damaged!"
Sighing, Ying Zige's eyes looked infinitely far away, as if he had passed through thousands of mountains and rivers and landed on the land of Jingyang. "It seems that Gu's previous ideas are still insufficient. Perhaps, by unifying the world as soon as possible, we can rest and recuperate."
, the best way to preserve my Chinese vitality!”
There was a smile on Guo Jia's lips, but he did not answer Ying Zige's words. No one knew the abilities of his lord better than him, the strategist who was called the lord minister and was actually his best friend. His force, intelligence, and courage were all unparalleled.
He is the best in the world and a rare person in ancient times.
However, perhaps because of the special secrets he once mentioned, in Guo Jia's view, Ying Zige has always set his sights too high, so high that he sometimes forgets that only by taking the path in front of him well can he achieve success.
Step by step, climb to the top.
"Isn't this the meaning of my existence?!" Guo Jia said to himself, "Your Majesty, you once particularly praised the boy of the Zhuge family. In fact, why can't I and even all the cultural relics do it for you?
You have dedicated your life to the cause of Great Qin and died!?"
