Chapter five hundred and fifty first strategy

"Report... Yesterday, Cao Cao and Yuan Shu fought fiercely outside Luoyang City. Yuan Shu ordered Cao Cao to ambush Cao Cao but was discovered by the other party. Xiahou Dun killed Zhang Xun, a general under Yuan Shu. In the evening, Cao Cao used Xiahou Yuan back to attack and attacked with the troops left behind the pass to break through Hulao Pass. Yuan Shu's guard general Lei Chu died in battle. He guarded the pass and 15,000 soldiers and horses, either killing or surrendering, and none of them escaped."

"Early this morning, both sides announced the world, and Cao Cao scolded Yuan Shu as a rebel, Yuan Shu called Cao Cao a rebel, and after the eunuch, he acted as if he would not give up."

After hearing the news of the horse recruitment, Liu He waved his hand, and the horse recruitment bowed and quickly stepped out of the hall.

"The two bandits of Yuan and Cao were indeed trapped. According to the Feiying Guard, Cao Cao had 30,000 troops under his command, and was heading to Chen County, Yuzhou, and there were 30,000 troops from Chen County, and they also sent troops to Chenliu. The two sides happened to meet last night and fought fiercely in the middle of the night, and retreated. Now Yanzhou and Yuzhou are in a full-scale war. For a while, it is difficult to decide the outcome, so we should be free of worries in Bingzhou."

"The lord is clear and decisive. This move uses retreat as advance, and gives them the four battles of Luoyang to them. Our army retreated from Luoyang to Hanoi, and Hanoi is backed by Shangdang, and can advance or retreat. After both of them are injured, our army can take back Luoyang and take the opportunity to destroy the two princes and take back Yan and Yu states. Jun is very impressed."

Cui Jun's words seemed like compliments, but every sentence came from the heart.

"Zhouping praised it well, but he shouldn't have said this to me. This plan is all the plan of Gongda. Others want to turn against the guest. Gongda's plan, but he did the opposite. It was a surprise to turn against the host and get a guest. He should remember a great achievement."

Xun You was sitting next to Xun Yu at this time. He slowly stood up and bowed to Liu He and said, "Lord is a mischievous praise."

Liu He was in a good mood at this time: "Wenruo, Gongda, is worthy of being the leader of Xun's family. I have the help of two people, and I will be like a tiger with wings. Why worry about big things?"

Xun Yu said: "Now that the Luoyang incident is temporarily resolved, the disaster in Xihe County is stable, Tong Jian has set out to investigate the Yellow River sections and there are hundreds of officials who have participated in the water control in various counties. I think about the Yellow River incident, the lord can rest assured. Everything goes well, the army is upright, and it is time to attack and plan achievements."

"Well, what Wen Ruo said is very consistent with my heart." Liu He nodded.

"I don't know what our army's strategy will refer to in the future. Can Wen Ruo have any suggestions?"

Xun Yu seemed to be prepared for Liu He's question, and immediately started talking.

"The way of military forces is to be famous for the army. If the reputation is just right, the words will be smooth, and the morale of the army can be condensed. Our capital of the Han Dynasty is Luoyang. Now that the lord and Your Majesty have moved to Hanoi, the first thing is to make the name clear."

Liu He asked: "How to correct his name?"

"Yuan Shu was a rebel and was stealing Luoyang, which was a rebellion, which was a mistake. The lord could issue an edict of the emperor, announcing the central government of the court, temporarily moving to Jinyang, and at the same time criticized Yuan Shu for his crimes and told the world that Cao Cao would attack Luoyang as soon as possible. If successful, he would promise to grant him the title of General of the Cavalry and the Marquis of Puyang."

Liu He had some clarity: "Well, the Japanese military advisor used Zhong Yuanchang to pretend to be Cao Cao's handwriting and forged the letters he colluded with me, and the rewards mentioned in the letter were the same. At that time, the princes in the world, especially Yuan Shu, would even believe that Cao Cao had firmly defected to me. Even if Cao Cao wanted to escape from the Luoyang war, Yuan Shu would pursue him relentlessly. Wen Ruo was very proud, and a letter of edict made Cao Mengde go out of trouble."

"That's the case. Yuan Shao is Yuan Shu's cousin. He has acted as a cousin of Yuan Shu. He can scold him together and reiterate that the two Yuan colluded with all the families, rebelled against the court, and broke the dam and harmed the people. He declared that he would attack him immediately after the beginning of spring. In this way, Yuan Shao would definitely rely on General Xu Huang's Baibo army. The higher his trust in the Baibo army, the faster his death will be."

"Liu Yu in Youzhou, Jiao He in Qingzhou, Kong Rong in Beihai, and Tao Qian in Xuzhou are all benevolent people, not good at fighting. Since the lord entered Luoyang, the four of them have always been at peace. After Yuan Shao's destruction, You, Qing and Xuzhou should be taken without fighting."

"Then, the lord can surrender Cao Cao openly and secretly, and ordered him to go to Jiaozhou to quell the Nanyue Rebellion. If he agrees, it will be the best. If he refuses, he will be the best, and if he refuses, he will be the best. If he rebels, the lord can be justified in attacking him. At that time, Henei sends troops to capture Luoyang, Ji, Qing sends troops to capture Yanzhou, Xuzhou sends troops to capture Yuzhou, and then surrender to Ma Teng in Xiliang to appease his people. Then, the north of the Yangtze River will be returned to the lord. The country will be unified, and the Han Dynasty will be revived, and the Han Dynasty will be built at your fingertips."

"Okay!" Liu He was filled with excitement when he heard it.

"Wen Ruo's words are just a few words that make the world's general trends understandably and reasonably. Every word is gems. Now winter is approaching, and taking advantage of this season, I have something to prepare. Once it is prepared, it will complement the Baibo army, one light and one dark, one yin and one yang, and it is no problem to capture Jizhou."

At this time, Gong Saner suddenly hurried over: "General, Your Majesty will tell you to go."

Liu He was stunned: "Oh? Your Majesty is awake?"

After all, Liu Xie was young and weak. In late autumn, he left the city in the middle of the night, changed his carriages and then changed his carriages. He struggled all night. In addition, he was frightened and fell ill again as soon as he arrived in Hanoi.

Gong Saner replied: "Your Majesty just woke up and kept crying, shouting... and shouting..."

Seeing that he was hesitant, Liu He said, "There are no outsiders here, there is something to say, but it doesn't matter."

Gong Saner breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Your Majesty kept shouting, don't be the emperor..."

Everyone was shocked when they heard this.

"Let's go and have a look." Liu He walked out of the hall quickly.

Since Hulao Pass was occupied by Cao Cao, there have been frequent conflicts between Cao and Yuan, but no one has won any big victory.

It was inconvenient to garrison troops in Hulao Pass. Cao Cao stayed 10,000 troops in the pass, and the remaining troops camped on both sides of the road leading to Luoyang, camping and passes in triangular defense, forming a supportive corner.

Ji Ling had just led his army to test it. After a while of fighting, he quickly retreated when he saw that he could not get any advantage. The walls of Luoyang City were towering, and it was not easy to conquer it. Cao's army went to attack the city twice in the past few days, but there was no progress. The two sides were in a stalemate.

The atmosphere in the conference hall was somewhat depressing when Hulao was closed.

Cao Cao sat in his position and didn't speak for a long time, so everyone could only remain silent.

Suddenly, Cao Cao pulled out his sword, rubbed it, and inserted it into the wooden board on the ground.

"Liu He, Bingzhou, is indeed amazing. I have worked hard for more than a year. In the end, he easily resolved it with one move. Not only did he fail to capture Luoyang, he was also forced to trap here. He fought Yuan Shu for several days, which is really annoying."

Cheng Yu also sighed: "Now he has a decree of the emperor, and the lord's previous statement that he wanted to eliminate thieves and eliminate rebellion for the country, our army has been tied to him to agree to the warship. Now even if we want to retreat, Yuan Shu will inevitably come from the rear, which is really difficult to deal with."

"I really didn't expect that I thought I could decide Luoyang in one go, but now I'm shooting myself in the foot."

Cao Cao said a bit hatefully, then looked at Jia Xu.

"Since this matter has come to this, what are Wenhe's opinions?"

Jia Xu lowered his head and said, "My subordinates are incompetent and have failed. Now there is no countermeasure. Please punish the lord."

Cao Cao's eyes tightened: "Forget it, you can't blame you for this matter. The situation was originally a great situation, but who could have expected that Liu He had such courage to leave Luoyang. Now Luoyang only has an empty city, which is useless."

"I think Luoyang is not a useless city." A voice sounded, and Cao Cao looked at it and looked happy.

"Does the filial piety have other opinions?"

Guo Jia stood up and said, "Liu He issued an imperial edict to our army to capture Luoyang. Luoyang is the capital of the Great Han Dynasty. It is well known that as long as our army occupy this place and ask the emperor to return to the palace, Liu He will definitely lead the army to welcome the emperor. Our army is proactive and passive, and it will be easy to take Liu He's life."

Cao Cao asked closely: "How easy is it?"

"When Liu He arrives in Luoyang, he will send troops to replace the city defense. The lord can pretend to obey and surrender his vigilance. At the same time, he set up an ambush in the palace and dug out a secret grid under the dragon throne. When the emperor returns to the palace to ascend to the throne, the person hidden in the secret grid starts the mechanism and takes the emperor away, and then immediately blocks the hall with all kinds of heavy objects. The swordsman and axeman and crossbowmen rushed forward, and Liu He will definitely die."

"The lord then supported the emperor and said that Liu He had a bad intention and wanted to assassinate him and was killed by our army. At that time, the emperor was in the hands of the lord, and who was loyal and rebellious was decided by the lord. Liu He and Yuan Shu were all dead. The lord should take Yu again, join the two states, and Sili areas without any effort."

After hearing his plan, Cao Cao's eyes flashed again.

"Okay, I follow this plan of filial piety, and I am bold and meticulous. Since I have been calling Dong, I have bowed my head to Liu He and obeyed me, and he will not be suspicious. Zhongde, you will immediately compile a letter on my behalf and send it to Jinyang to show my loyalty and obedience. Your words must be sincere."

"Here!"

"The winter is approaching, and our army's food and grass are about to be exhausted. We will quit with Yuan Shu. After the spring begins, we will take action to capture Luoyang."

All the generals shouted in unison: "Abide by the order!"

Yuzhou, Lujiang County.

After the Dong Alliance, Sun Jian lived under Yuan Shu's tent and fought for him. Lujiang County was the last county he attacked when Yuan Shu captured the entire territory of Yuzhou. He was therefore appointed as the prefect of Lujiang by Yuan Shu.

On this day, Sun Jian, Han Dang, Huang Gai, Cheng Pu and other generals gathered together, as if discussing something important.

"Yuan Shu is really hateful. When fighting, we asked us to charge forward, but on the day of reward, we had no share. When we pretended to be the prefect of Lujiang, we never sent a truck of food and grass to our army. Instead, we often asked us for military rations under the name of Lujiang's wealth. This time, we attacked Luoyang, and thought we were sure to win, so we taught Ji Ling Leipu to lead the army. Now the situation is not good, and we are going to do it again. It is really too deceptive."

Although Huang Gai's temples began to turn a little white, his bad temper remained unabashed at all.

"The rebuttal is right. The lord has been fighting for Yuan Shu for many years. He has been a prefect of Nanyang, and he has the power of today. Most of the lord's contributions. He has come to ask for food and grass many times, but he is just afraid that the lord will recruit soldiers and horses in Lujiang. We have been here for a long time, and we still have only eight thousand soldiers and horses. How can we gain a foothold in this troubled times? The lord should plan early."

Sun Jian's eyes were very firm, and he looked at the generals.

"What the two generals Han and Huang said is actually exactly what Jian thought. He summons you to come today and is about to discuss this matter."

When everyone heard this, they seemed to have guessed something. They all sat up straight in an instant, their spirits were completely different from the previous resentment.
