At noon that day, in the besieged camp in the south of Jingyang City.

After listening to the battle situation reported by Zhao Yun and Gan Ning, Li Sushiran circled the name of "Liang Gang" on the map, then forked it away, and then on a note next to it that simply recorded the combat effectiveness of Yuan Shujun in Nanyang area, he estimated that he had reduced the results.

In this battle, the city siege and aid were probably killed by nearly 15,000 enemy troops.

It may be a bit unlucky to say that half of Liang Gangle's troops were annihilated, but one-third of them were definitely annihilated - mainly because Yuan Shu's army in Rangcheng did not come out in full bloom, and Liang Gang also left a considerable number of people to defend the city.

After deducting the enemy's capital, Li Su and Zhuge Liang followed the trend and continued to take stock of the work on the map and evaluated the general distribution of the remaining divisions of Yuan Shu's army.

As mentioned earlier, the three generals under Yuan Shu who can stand alone in defense of a state are mainly Ji Ling and Liu Xun and Qiao Rui.

Liang Gangle was under Ji Ling's command and was sent back to the southern line. Ji Ling's command had a general Lei Bo, who was left in Luoyang area and stationed in Hulao Pass.

Liu Xun's generals were Chen Ji, Chen Lan and Mei Cheng. Those people were dragged into the quagmire of Yingchuan area, so there is no need to worry.

Now the only person who is still possible to split his troops to rescue the Nanyang battlefield is the only Qiao Rui team in Yongzhou. Qiao Rui has generals Li Feng, Zhang Xun and Xun Zheng.

Li Feng and Qiao Rui were now stationed at Yuguan Pass at the north entrance of Wuguan Road. Zhang Xun and Xun Zheng were guarding Shangluo County, the key Danshui County in the middle section of Wuguan Road, and Wuguan Pass at the south end.

After reading the latest distribution of enemy generals on the map, Li Su pointed to the map and discussed with Zhuge Liang: "If Jingyang is captured by us and Le will be completely wiped out, as long as the counselors around Yuan Shu are not stupid, they will definitely feel that "With Yuan Shu's current state of being attacked from three sides, the territory is obviously too long, and the depth of north and south is too shallow, so they are surrounded and beaten by more princes."

If Wancheng and Xu County were cut off again, Yuan Shu's land in Luoyang and Jingzhao would be completely cut off from the land in the two Huaihe Rivers in the east, forming an enclave that cannot be taken into consideration from the end.

Therefore, as long as Yang Hong and Yan Xiang have not been fooled, they will at least persuade Yuan Shu to give up the Yuguan and Shangluo, and slowly give up the worthless mountainous counties along the Wuguan Road in Jingzhao. At most, they will insist on guarding the last dangerous pass between Wuguan, the Nanyang Basin and Chang'an, and throw away all the Qinling Mountains in the middle of more than 500 miles."

Zhuge Liang took over the conversation: "So, Mr. Li, are you planning to besiege the city and attack aid again? Continue to put pressure on Qingyang, and even capture Qingyang to surround Jiyang, so that Qiao Rui's troops on the western front would withdraw from the Qinling Mountains and come to the Nanyang Basin Plain and then be eroded and weakened by us?"

Li Suyi smiled: "What's this? Your pursuit is too small, and how can you expect the same strategy to make the enemy beat twice? At least you have to adjust it a little, which can be considered respecting the opponent. History will not be repeated simply immediately. I still remember that a few days ago, after I got the military rations in Xinyecheng given by Liu Biao, I asked Yuan Zhi to go to Shangyong to find Yide, so that Yide would not rush to send troops to show his face."

Even if you are cutting leeks, you have to cut them and draw a few graphics to brew them first, so that the leeks will forget the pain of the last time. There is no such thing as the sickle that you just waved over and then took it back.

Zhuge Liang immediately understood: "I understand, that is to lead some of the troops of Zhang Xun and Xun Zheng under Qiao Rui's command, so that they mistakenly thought that "Yuan Shu's army in the direction of Wuguan might be cut off from Rangcheng by our army, unable to retreat to Wancheng, or even unable to return further east."

Then, they would come to rescue Rangcheng, Qingyang and even Wancheng, and in fact they were also saving themselves and ensuring their own retreat. Then, after Zhang Xun and Xun Zheng's main force left Wuguan Road, they would let General Zhang suddenly break out from Wudang County beside Shangyong Han River and Qinling Mountains, and then run a little northward to turn to Danshui, the tributary on the north side of the Han River, break through Shunyang, Nanxiang, and Danshui counties, block and even attack Wuguan from behind.

As a result, the enemy troops in Wuguan Road were insufficient, and there was only Qiao Rui and Li Feng's direct troops. In front of them, a king personally led the Guanzhong army to attack Yuguan. Later, General Zhang attacked Wuguan with Hanzhong troops. Qiao Rui was surrounded in the Qinling Canyon and could only surrender or be completely destroyed.

At that time, the king and General Zhang will gather the troops in Guanzhong and Hanzhong, and will flow down from the Danshui and Hanshui. It will be unstoppable and the entire territory of Nanyang will be destroyed in an instant."

Zhuge Liang immediately understood Li Su’s intentions.

Now, Li Su's 40,000 people have to destroy the Yuan Shu army in Nanyang area and have to play the role of attacking the tough side. Although it is not impossible to win, it cannot be destroyed after all. When encountering a strong city, it must save lives and attack at all costs, so time will definitely be delayed.

It’s like in history that Guan Yu went from Jingzhou to the north, relying solely on 30,000 to 50,000 soldiers from Jingzhou to attack Xiangfan, it was not that he couldn’t defeat him, but he had to attack the city at all costs, because Cao Ren and Xu Huang’s defensive troops had more people than Guan Yu’s offensive troops, which led to the tug-of-war war in Fancheng for so long.

Li Su's current dilemma is the same. He can win by fighting, and he wins very slowly. The key is that he will work hard to siege the city and attack the aid to consume Yuan Shu's army's vitality, but he may not be able to take all the benefits in the end.

If Yuan Shu finds that he is in danger of being cut off into an enclave, he will definitely retreat from Jingzhao and Luoyang troops. If Luoyang troops are withdrawn first, wouldn’t it be cheaper for Yuan Shao? It makes it easier for Yuan Shao to get Luoyang in vain?

As for Wancheng, it would have no effect to capture Wancheng ten days and eight days earlier or ten days later. Wancheng is not the capital of Yuan Shu's army, and Yuan Shu's capital is now in Luoyang.

So Li Su is very clear: the key at the moment is not to erode and weaken more Yuan Shu's army, but to put more of the main force of Liu Bei's camp into the Nanyang Basin.

When Wu Handao and Hedongdao were unable to advance, Wu Guandao was completely attacked from the front and tail and attacked inside and outside, allowing at least tens of thousands of troops from Liu Bei's camp to go east to Wan and Luo. In this way, the horse-drawn land after the collapse of the territory on the western front of Yuan Shu would not suffer any losses.

Moreover, this is also in line with the fact that "a general was the one who led the troops from Jingzhou to Wanluo, and the king personally led the army to leave Qinchuan", and it was the easiest to fight together.

However, there is still a small problem to do this, which is that I don’t know how quickly Yuan Shu’s troops and counselors react.

Li Sude took the stance of maintaining pressure, let Yang Hong and Yan Xiang notice the seriousness of the problem, and took the initiative to persuade Yuan Shu to retreat Qiao Rui and Zhang Xun and Xun Zheng to Rangcheng to repair the gap left after Liang Gang died in battle.

It is quite uncomfortable to realize the danger of this kind of low IQ and other low IQ. It is quite difficult for crops like cunning and cunning. They have drawn graphics when they wait for the leeks to take the bait, but they don’t know how well the leeks are and how long it takes to understand the graphic.

If a stock analyst helps Chive interpret the graph and ask Chive to take a quick stock trading class, it may also speed up the speed of Chives being caught in the trap.

Now, I can only continue to attack Jingyang and wait until the enemy slowly wakes up.

However, after Zhuge Liang and Li Su completely reviewed all his expectations, he had a flash of inspiration and thought of a way to accelerate this process - don't ask Zhuge Liang how he could react so quickly, who made him extremely talented.

After thinking for a while, Zhuge Liang said, "Mr. Li, I have a plan that may be used as an auxiliary to speed up your plan."

Li Su: "What's the plan?"

Zhuge Liang: "We sent a scholar with a little wise reputation in Nanyang to Qiaorui and Zhang Xun to offer advice, reminding them of the dangers of their retreat, and advised them to provide a large sum of money to meet Yan Xiang or Yang Hong.

Let Yan Xiang and the others advise Yuan Shu and allow Qiao Rui to give up Yuguan and Shangluo one after another. For Qiao Rui and others, this is also a way out for themselves. This is in line with the interests of our army and Qiao Rui, and no one will doubt it."

Li Su smiled bitterly: "From the interests, Qiao Rui's retreat and shrinking troops are indeed beneficial to Qiao Rui and our army, but it may be risky to Yuan Shu. After Qiao Rui and Zhang Xun were reminded, it is also possible to take the initiative to withdraw.

But the problem now is that Yuan Shu has already been given the reputation of monarchic murder, and 80% of the princes in the world believe that he was the one who killed the monarchic murderer. There are indeed many famous scholars and scholars around Xiangyang, but who would jump into the fire pit to join Yuan Shu’s camp at this time to offer suggestions to Yuan Shu? Then will you be suspected immediately?

Unless you find a famous folk scholar who had served Yuan Shu before - by the way, can Huang Chengyan do this? He didn't serve as a mission with Yan Xiang to Hongnong, you have accused his daughter of traveling around the Western Regions and the South China Sea for more than a year. You won't be unaware of your father-in-law's recent situation."

Zhuge Liang was embarrassed: "Master Li, don't talk nonsense, I... My sister and I are just like-minded and gentlemen, and those who have long-term plans. Anyway, Mr. Huang can't do this anymore. His whole family will move to Chang'an, and he will be suspected when he goes back.

Of course, someone has chosen me - that person said he was a friend of Mr. Shui Jing, the mentor of Brother Yuanzhi, and his surname was Pang Tong. He was two or three years older than me. He was about to win the championship this year, so he should have become an official. Such a person lives in Xiangyang, around Nanyang, and is considered a local.

This kind of person follows the trend and applies to Qiao Rui for advice, and the chances of being suspected are smaller. This person is also a little eloquent, and he is good at observing his words and expressions, and should be competent."

When Li Su heard Pang Tong's name, his eyes lit up a little, but then he still felt it was impossible: "I also heard Yuan Zhi mention the name of Pang Shiyuan, and he is a talent who is good at adapting to changes. However, Yuan Shu is in a dilemma, so there is still insufficient reason to invest at this time."

Now that he is investing in Yuan Shu, he has no vision than 45 years of voting to virtue! If others don’t suspect it, there will be ghosts!

However, after hearing Li Su's serious veto, Zhuge Liang was not discouraged. Instead, he smirked: "This is Master Li, you don't understand Pang Shiyuan. I gave Pang Shiyuan an excuse to throw himself into Qiaorui and make people not doubt his purpose."

Hearing this, Li Su couldn't help but become curious: Zhuge Liang has this ability? He has not been suspected of a person's deceptive surrender for 45 years? How is this possible! Even if you say that you are an extremely brainless fan of the head of state, you may be suspected of being!

Zhuge Liang saw Li Su's surprise and couldn't help but feel proud: Finally, he had won a little over Master Li in terms of wisdom for a while.

He quickly revealed the answer: "There is a characteristic of Pang Shiyuan, which is that he is extremely ugly. Although he is talented, he cannot be appreciated by the wise master. Moreover, because of his uglyness, he cannot get married to a famous scholar family. He is about to reach the crown but has no wife.

Mr. Li, do you remember that when you were in Chang'an, you took me to a banquet and had a drink with Qiao Rui's family in Qujiangchi, Shanglinyuan? At that time, I discovered that both Qiao Gong and his daughters were beautiful in the world.

If a person like Pang Shiyuan, who is a very ugly man who has no wife, wants to seek sex, and wants to save Qiao Rui's family's life and jump out of the fire pit and make a good relationship, he may be grateful to Qiao Rui in the future, and it is unknown if he promises his daughter to be his wife."

Li Su's eyes lit up: This reason for deceiving surrender is definitely reasonable! He is angry with the beauty!

If Pang Tong has a peerless ugly comparison, if he has the chance to get a beautiful woman like Da Qiao as his wife, it is no impossible to go to the robber in the oil pan under the knife.
