Jia Xu's reasons are not sufficient, but Lu Su and Guo Jia both understood after Jia Xu explained that the current situation is that they must maintain an aura of loyalty to the Han Dynasty. Although Liu Bei himself is indeed loyal to the Han Dynasty, it is a pity that This Han Dynasty is not the emperor!
At least now is not the time to attract the emperor's attention. This is the consensus of Guo Jia, Jia Xu and others. As for the future, after Cao Cao's ideas conflict with the emperor's ideas, there will be more room for change.
Shen Sheng died inside. This situation has been settled a long time ago. At least now, no one will deviate from it, because it is related to the interests of everyone. In the future, this will represent orthodoxy and justice. Of course, Realistically, this means that this will allow Liu Bei to act reasonably and legally.
"Everyone should make their own preparations. The decisive battle will begin at any time. By the way, this is the best time to disrupt the rhythm of Zhou Yu and Cao Cao." Jia Xu said. As for why he didn't say it was Sun Ce, in fact, everyone now Everyone can see that all Sun Ce's decision-making strategies came from Zhou Yu's hand.
Lu Su and Guo Jia looked at each other and both nodded. They could still tell which was more important. If Yuan Shao, the biggest enemy, could be dealt with earlier, the unification of the world would come earlier, and the Han Dynasty would also provide support earlier. are on the right track, and this is the direction they have been working towards.
"I will personally notify Wen Ru, Wen He, keep an eye on Yuan Shao, Feng Xiao, control the situation between us and the enemy, and remember to stop when the critical point is reached." Lu Su looked at the two of them and said.
The next day, Liu Bei's army sent out a large number of troops and launched a brazen attack on Yuan Shao's army. The two sides fought from Chenshi to Shenshi. It can be said that both sides suffered losses. Even Guan Yu, who led the charge of the school swordsmen, was hit by an arrow in his left arm. Yan Liang, who was opposite Guan Yu, was also injured. He was also hit by several arrows. After a fierce battle between the two sides, Yuan Shao retreated ten miles.
In such a brutal battle, the losses on both sides were actually not light. Even Liu Bei's army, which directly attacked Yuan Shao's camp, suffered greater losses, but it was Yuan Shao's army that retreated, not Liu Bei's army, which suffered greater losses.
The root cause can only be said to be that Liu Beijun had begun to suppress Yuan Shaojun in terms of momentum, resulting in such a tragic battle. It was difficult for Yuan Shaojun to notice Liu Beijun's actual battle losses.
"We can't continue fighting like this!" Tian Feng directly threw the battle damage statistics into the trial cases. "Today, more than 2,000 soldiers of our army were killed directly in battle, and as many as 7,000 were injured. These were all seriously injured and Soldiers who are unable to fight in a short period of time, if we keep fighting like this, sooner or later we will run out of soldiers!"
"Liu Bei's medical security system was built too early and is too complete. It is difficult for us to catch up." Xu You said with a wry smile. He has used everything he can to do night attacks, harassment, tired enemies, and division of troops. However, Guo Jia on the opposite side suppressed him by relying on tricks.
"Gongyu, do you have any suggestions?" Tian Feng asked Jushou.
"The insider is reporting that Liu Beijun is ready for a decisive battle." Jushou said after being silent for a while.
"Are you kidding? The situation is not clear at all now. Do they think they can defeat us in a single battle on the battlefield?" Suddenly there was silence in the camp, and then they shouted loudly.
"According to the information obtained from my insider, the opponent's partial army has arrived at Wei County in Jizhou!" Jushou said with a frown.
"Sneak attack on Yecheng?" The judge was surprised, and then said in confusion, "But Youruo wrote that Chen Xi and Liu Ye were both dragged by him to the front line in Puyang, and the situation has gone from a strategic contraction at the beginning to a strategic stalemate now. .”
Xu You knocked on the table and raised his head and said. "I think we have all forgotten one person. Not only did Liu Bei meet these five civil servants, he also had a very outstanding minister who was ill in Mount Tai."
"If that's the case, who will he entrust to defend the southern front?" Tian Feng frowned and said, "Although Fa Zheng is young and weak, judging from our intelligence, he is planning to pacify Huaibei and fight against The first decision-maker in Xuzhou, and ended Liu Bei’s threat from the south in one fell swoop!”
"Let him guard Huaibei. Controlling the Xuzhou and Yuzhou front lines and suppressing Huainan is the most correct choice. Moreover, he has truly proved his genius on the battlefield and has the qualifications and ability to command all the soldiers on the Huaibei front line. ." Although Feng Ji does not have a very good relationship with Tian Feng, his correct theory is worthy of echoing, at least it is not yet time for party struggle.
"Yes, suppressing Huainan is a very important thing for Liu Bei. Only in this way can we avoid a war between the north and the south and divert his energy. Therefore, on the southern front, as long as Liu Bei is not stupid, he must leave a person with sufficient ability and qualifications. characters, and Fazheng and Zhang Fei are the most suitable candidates." Guo Tu also interjected at this time.
"No, I don't think so. Logically speaking, the most correct way is to hand over the Huaibei defense line to Zhang Fei and Fazheng, who are both civil and military. However, the arrangement of Liu Bei's troops leaving Yuzhou before made me see some differences." Ju said this Shi suddenly spoke.
"You mean to hand over the Huaibei defense line to Zhuge Liang, who has no hair at all. How is this possible? Even if he has the ability, he can't control Liu Bei's third brother. This is no longer a question of ability. In addition to commanding the entire Liu Bei team, This kind of person doesn't have enough hands!" Feng Ji said in great surprise.
"No, it's very possible, Yuan Tu, you're wrong. Just because you don't have all your hair doesn't mean you're not capable enough. This kind of thing may be problematic for others, but it's normal for Taishan. Chen Xi was no more than 10 years old when he broke out of the Yellow Turban. Eighteen, Fa Zhengping Huaibei, defeating Yuzhou's army is less than twenty years old, it may not be impossible for multiple Zhuge Kongming!" Shen Pei said silently, "It is really the appearance of heaven and man!"
"Similarly, Zhang Fei may not be needed to guard Huaibei. Taishi Ci is also a very suitable candidate. Compared with Zhang Fei's status, it is difficult to be assigned. Taishi Ci does not have this problem." Jushou said with a solemn expression. , "So it is very likely that Fazheng and Zhang Fei are attacking Wei County now!"
"This is not a very important matter." Dong Zhao said silently, "General Jiang is a pragmatic and steady man. Even if Fa Zheng comes up with all kinds of tricks, it is impossible to have any impact on Ye City. The strength of the sneak attack has already been decided. They will not It is possible to take Yecheng by storm, but only by stealing!"
"Since then, there have been problems with our grain roads in Yecheng, and now there are also some problems with Qinghe. George and Wenbo are not the opponents of Xu Shu and Wei Yan, but Qinghe's grain is transported by aristocratic families. There was no loss, but Xu Shu and Wei Yan..." At this moment, Tian Feng suddenly felt that the clouds in his heart were a little heavier. Compared with them, Liu Beijun's senior officials were too young! (To be continued.)
