…
Liu Tong drank a bowl of tea calmly, looked at what he saw among the inner qi dumplings, and shook his head helplessly.
The play must continue to be performed before it can produce results. After all, the role she plays is the most important goal for everyone under Yuan Shao's command.
Liu Tong mobilized the mental power in his mind to control Lu Qi, and he had to continue acting.
"Quickly, get on the pontoon bridge and cross the river!" Lu Qi pulled out the two swords from his waist and tried hard to persuade everyone, trying to maintain order.
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei looked at each other and joined the team maintaining order.
It seemed that with the addition of the three of them, the evacuation team became much more orderly.
At this time, Yuan Shao stood on the high ground, looking at the Yellow River, looking at the chaotic crowd, and then looked up at the sky, where the moon was still high in the sky.
"Lord, we are victorious!" Jushou also saw this scene, and then confirmed it again to Yuan Shao.
After being stationed here for so long and getting so much crucial information, they finally won despite some calculations or not. They also accomplished their goal, defeating or repelling Liu Bei's army.
"Lord, I suggest we continue the pursuit!" Guo Tu narrowed his eyes, stepped forward, got closer to Yuan Shao, and said loudly, "Liu Beijun threw away his helmet and armor, but was crowded in front of four pontoon bridges. Such a great opportunity, when pursuing Of!"
When Jushou heard this, he couldn't help but frowned. This was different from what they said before.
"Gongze, when chasing at night, most of our army can see the road only by the light of these fires. If we pursue, how will we see the road once we cross the Yellow River?" Jushou frowned, quite puzzled. Looking at Guo Tu, he was completely confused, why would he do this?
According to their previous discussion, after seriously injuring Liu Bei, they would lead the army in the northern expedition against Gongsun Zan.
After all, the current battle on the Youji border is going smoothly. With their participation, it will be a matter of course.
"It's only an hour until dawn. How can we not see the road when the sky is bright?" Guo Tu pointed at the sky and directly told the time until dawn.
"Pursue or not, it doesn't really matter. I want to understand, what is the reason for pursuing, and what is the reason for not pursuing?" Yuan Shao listened to the conversation between the two and asked in confusion.
With the army at his side, Yuan Shao was naturally fearless. Liu Bei's army had already failed, so what else did he have to worry about?
"Lord, according to the information we have received before, Liu Bei's army only has more than 80,000 men. In this night's battle, the number of soldiers used is no less than 50,000. Now they are crowding on the pontoon with their helmets and armor removed. How many people have fallen into the water? It can be said that he was seriously injured, and he has very few troops left, so he should take advantage of the victory to pursue and further increase the damage to Liu Bei." Guo Tu knew that he didn't have much time, so he quickly explained his reasons.
Yuan Shao nodded after hearing this, and then turned to look at Jushou.
"My lord, if we pursue the enemy at this moment, I don't know how far we have to go before we can return to the army to assist General Ju Yi, defeat Gongsun Zan, and capture Youzhou!" General Jushou revealed his previous plan.
Yuan Shao also nodded after hearing this. After all, strategy can be done or not, or it should not be done casually. After all, once a change occurs, it affects the whole body, and there are a lot of things that need to be changed.
"Mr. Yu, do you know the place owned by Liu Bei? What place is it?" Guo Tu stopped looking at Yuan Shao, turned to look at Ju Shou, and said seriously, "Qingzhou, Xuzhou, and Yanzhou Taishan County, the population Ten million, with Xuzhou’s rich money and food, Qingzhou’s tough people, and the loss of such a small army, can it really hurt Liu Bei?”
After hearing this, Jushou thought for a moment and slowly shook his head.
"And now, it has not been long since Liu Bei captured Xuzhou, and the people's support has not been solidified, so there will naturally be opportunities for recurrence. In addition, Liu Bei is still on this side of the Yellow River, so we still have a chance to catch up and kill Liu Bei!" Guo Tu said about the favorable factors.
"Kill Liu Bei?!" Everyone present looked at Guo Tu in surprise after hearing Guo Tu's goal.
"That's right, the local area has been newly established and has not regained the support of the people. The army has been transferred from abroad and is internally empty. Liu Bei's Taishan County is empty and almost defenseless. We can attack Taishan in one fell swoop, kill Liu Bei and completely change the current situation." Tu said with confidence.
"You mean, you have been chasing Liu Bei and looking for opportunities to capture Taishan County?" Jushou recalled the map in his mind, and then said calmly, "I have been to Fenggao City, and I know that from Licheng to Fenggao City, the construction depends on Mount Tai. The wide road does not take much time, five or six days is enough, but this idea is too dangerous."
Hearing this, Guo Tu said anxiously, "You know, Liu Bei still has no wife and no legitimate children. He only relies on himself to support him. If he dies, disintegration is imminent. As long as Liu Bei can return to Licheng If Liu Bei is killed before, the world's situation will be reversed instantly!"
Don't worry, Liu Bei is still here for the sake of his soldiers. If Liu Bei runs away after a while, there will be no chance at all.
"If Liu Bei's power falls apart, no matter whether it is chaos or otherwise, it will be impossible to block our military front. Coupled with Xuzhou's new establishment and the lord's prestige, Xuzhou will be at your fingertips. When the time comes, contact Yuzhou Yuan Gongluo and work together, and the world will be at your fingertips. ..." Guo Tu quickly expressed his thoughts.
As long as he implements his ideas, he can not only change the current decline, but also instantly reverse the overall situation of the world.
At that level, relying solely on prestige, they still have the final say on what the world’s names are today!
After hearing this, Yuan Shao was completely entangled and was quite excited about this strategy.
After all, even if Liu Bei's army is fully equipped, it is unlikely to exceed 50,000 men. It will still be a defeated army. Its morale will definitely be low. If it is pursued, it will definitely be defeated in one battle.
Moreover, the sky was about to light up, which did not affect the pursuit.
But if Liu Bei fled back to Licheng and defended the city, relying on support from other places, it would be difficult for him to capture Licheng, and everything would be in vain.
"Lord, let's pursue it. Even if we don't succeed, we can retreat at any time. The enemy's new defeat will not restore their morale for a while, but our army has a new victory, so we can pursue it appropriately." Jushou hesitated for a moment, but finally decided. He nodded and agreed with Guo Tu's idea.
Even if Liu Bei fled back to Licheng, they could still withdraw. After all, after seeing something like a pontoon bridge, how could it not be built?
Once successful, the world will change, and the world can even be determined in one battle. The benefits of this are extremely huge.
Even if it fails, it's just a return to the previous plan.
