Chen Dao thought for a while and reported: "Reporting to my lord, when I left Pingyu County in humble position, the yellow scarf thieves Gong Du and Liu Pi who were entrenched in Pingyu County had just attacked Wubao where the Chen family was located, but I repulsed them. "
"Gong Du and Liu Pi have more than 10,000 troops. Of course, the real fighting strength is six to seven thousand. They are entrenched in Pingyu County. They do not produce or farm, and they rely on plundering. Loot the local people."
"On weekdays, I take some of the Yellow Turban thieves with me to borrow food everywhere. In name, it is borrowing food, but in fact it is robbery. If you don't give food, he will lead his men to attack you."
"Under the chaos caused by Gong Du and Liu Pi, Runan County was completely deserted."
Chen Dao quickly said: "My lord wants to deal with Gong Du and Liu Pi. I think that there is no need for any strategy and we can just attack. We should be able to capture Pingyu County. Because Gong Du and Liu Pi are just a mob and cannot defend the county. I can’t bear to be trapped for a long time.”
Lu Xuan nodded, looked at Zhou Yu and others, and said, "What do you think we should do?"
Zhou Yu said confidently: "My lord, it is indeed very simple to deal with Gong Du and Liu Pi. Especially with the news of Chen Dao, it will be even easier. The news that we have entered Runan County will definitely reach the ears of Gong Du and Liu Pi. "
"So far, Gong Du, Liu Pi and other Yellow Turban thieves have not come to surrender, and they obviously have no intention of surrendering."
"The Yellow Turbans themselves become the local emperor. When they have no money or food, they just go and rob. They can rob if they want, and leave as they please. They are free. If the Yellow Turban thieves surrender, they will be restrained and restricted everywhere, and no one will want to."
"It's normal for them not to submit."
"The strength of the Yellow Turban thieves is not as good as ours, so they will most likely choose to stick to their guns and not take the initiative. My humble suggestion is to use their defensive plan to spread the news that Chen Dao and the Chen family's tribe will defect to the lord."
Zhou Yu's eyes were bright and he said: "Our large army is still rushing forward slowly, creating the illusion that it has never arrived at Pingyu County. Just imagine, Gong Du and Liu Pi suffered a loss at the hands of Chen Dao, they must want to take revenge, and If they are short of food, will they not attack the Chen family?"
"It will definitely attack."
"So, we arranged for an elite team to wait at Chen's house first, waiting for Gong Du and Liu Pi to arrive."
"They come to attack, and our army rushes out to defeat them in a direct battle. As long as we defeat Gong Du and Liu Pi, it will be easy to capture Pingyu County. The advantage of this is that it can lure the snake out of its hole and prevent us from attacking Pingyu County."
"No matter how weak the Yellow Turban thief is, he will still have a certain influence on us if he sticks to the fortified city. Therefore, I suggest that we adopt a strategy of luring the snake out of its hole."
Zhou Yu cupped his hands and said, "My lord, please give me a lesson."
Lu Su said: "I second the proposal due to my humble position."
Lu Meng said: "I second the proposal due to my humble position."
Gu Yong also said: "I second the proposal due to my humble position."
Everyone agreed that the strategy for dealing with Gong Du and Liu Pi was simple and nothing complicated.
Chen Dao saw it in his eyes and sighed in his heart.
This is strength.
The outcome of Gong Du and Liu Pi was easily determined.
This is also true.
Given that Gong Du and Liu Pi failed to attack Chen Dao several times and suffered defeat in Chen Dao's hands many times, Gong Du and Liu Pi would definitely not be able to help but seek revenge after hearing the news of Chen Dao's departure.
Coupled with the temptation of food, it was enough to make Gong Du and Liu Pi excited.
Lu Xuan nodded and said: "According to Gong Jin's plan, our army slowed down and advanced. Uncle Zhi, you lead the troops to join the battle. After all, you are familiar with the terrain. In addition, I will dispatch Zhang Liao to join the battle. Zhang Liao will lead a thousand light cavalry. , two thousand infantry, three thousand people participated in the battle, and defeated the Yellow Turbans in one battle."
"I humble my duty and obey my orders."
Chen Dao answered immediately.
He was full of fighting spirit. In fact, to deal with the Yellow Turban bandits, having a thousand cavalry in the battle was definitely enough. Even without infantry, they can easily cover up and kill Gong Du and Liu Pi.
Lu Xuan called Zhang Liao directly and arranged Zhang Liao's plan to lead the troops.
After hearing this, Zhang Liao looked very excited and said: "Since we entered Runan County, my lord has been recruiting and surrendering all the way. He has never encountered any war. Now, there is a war. I will go to war this time. Guarantee to capture Pingyu County."
"Go ahead."
Lu Xuan smiled and said, "I'm waiting for your good news."
Chen Dao and Zhang Liao got up and left.
Gu Yong also stood up and said: "My lord, I am humble enough to go to work first and arrange for people to spread the news."
Lu Xuan nodded.
The army temporarily stayed in Gushi County and did not go north to Pingyu County. Lu Xuan waited for the army led by Chen Dao and Zhang Liao to leave for a day before he took his time and left Gushi County with the army.
After Lu Xuan's army began to set off, Pingyu County.
County seat, county government office.
This is the place where Gong Du and Liu Pi are entrenched, both of whom live in the county government.
In the hall, Gong Du and Liu Pi were eating meat and drinking wine.
Gong Du drank wine and said with emotion: "Old Liu, I'm afraid our good days are numbered. Lu Xuan is wreaking havoc in Runan County, and no one has come forward to resist. When he arrives in Pingyu County, we will not Easy to handle."
Liu Pi said: "Whatever, let's eat meat and drink wine first, and live as we please. What's more, we occupy the county seat, and it won't be easy for Lu Xuan to attack."
Gong Du leaned forward, smiled, and said, "Actually, I have an idea."
Liu Pi asked: "What do you think?"
Gong Du replied: "Let's hold on for a while and fight Lu Xuan to the death. After all, we can take advantage of the geographical advantages of the county to fight. I remember that the art of war said that it is very difficult for many enemies to attack a city. We have more than ten thousand People will guard it, I guarantee there will be no problem. When Lu Xuanjiu cannot attack, he will definitely surrender. If we surrender again, we can raise conditions."
Liu Pi praised: "You are right, you are worthy of someone who has studied for a few days. Let's do it like this."
"Report!"
Just then, a soldier entered.
The soldiers hurried to Gong Du's side and reported quietly.
After Gong Du heard this, he immediately became excited. He stood up and looked at Liu Pi, saying excitedly: "Old Liu, what a good news. When Chen came to this piece of shit, he learned that Lu Xuan had come to Runan County, and he actually brought the Chen family's troops with him. Qu, quietly went to join Lu Xuan."
"Chen Dao left the Chen family's Wubao, which means that the Chen family's defense is empty. The Chen family has a lot of food. We will seize all the Chen family's food in one battle. Then, we will use this food to rely on the strong city of Pingyu County. , we can fight to the death with Lu Xuan and further bargain."
"Especially, Chen Dao is very tough and has defeated us several times. This time, I have to catch all the Chen family members one by one and kill them all to vent my hatred."
Gong Du was filled with murderous intent and looked excited.
Liu Pi also became excited and said loudly: "You are right, this is our opportunity to take revenge and search for food. Let's go and mobilize troops to Chenjiawu Fort immediately."
The two of them were extremely excited and quickly mobilized their troops and headed directly in the direction of Chenjiawu Fort.
