Chapter 69 Huangfu Song's Plan
Chapter 69
"Early this morning, Zhang Liang of the North Camp of the Yellow Turban Army suddenly disappeared, and Zhang Bao of the South Camp also retreated 20 miles to install the camp. What do you think about this matter? Let's talk about it."
Huang Fu Song sat in the lobby, looked at the officers and generals below, and began to ask for advice with Zhu Jun next to him.
"We are the only one who is the head of the horse, but the one who has a destiny. We will follow it to the death."
As soon as Huangfu Song finished speaking, a group of generals immediately showed the center. On the contrary, it made Huangfu Song helpless for a while.
"Liu Zhuangshi, you have come all the way from Youzhou. You must have had a lot of deal with the yellow scarf thief. Let's talk about it."
Seeing that Huangfu Song did not ask for any opinions, Zhu Jun opened his mouth and asked Liu Bei beside him. According to such a military discussion, Liu Bei can't participate in such a white body, but Liu Bei claimed to be a royal clan, but Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun had to pay attention to it. Besides, Liu Bei came to rescue Yingchuan by the order of Lu Zhi. Huang Fu Song and Zhu Jun looked down on Liu Bei and had to give Lu Zhi face. So Zhu Jun asked Liu Bei.
"When I first came to Yingchuan, I didn't know much about the Yellow Turban Army in Yingchuan, and I really didn't dare to say anything, but Zhonglang asked the adults, and when he was brave, he talked about his foolish opinions. He rose up from Youzhou and came all the way to fight with the yellow scarf thief. A few days ago, Lord Yu Luzhi made peace and fought against Zhang Jiao. Zhang Jiao did not retreat to defend Guangzong. After that, Lu Zhonglang generals mobilized troops and horses, intending to completely destroy Zhang Jiao's subordinates, but it was difficult to capture Guangzong City for a while, so Lu Zhonglang sent him to Yingchuan first. On the one hand, he wanted me to build some meritorious deeds. On the other hand, he hoped that the two generals could After the siege was relieved, he went to Guangzong to help and jointly destroy the thief's first horn.
When Liu Bei saw Zhu Jun asking, he told the merits of his battle with the Yellow Turban Army and the beginning and end of his arrival in Yingchuan. Naturally, the purpose is to add some weight in front of everyone. As for the retreat of the Yellow Turban Army outside Yingchuan City, Liu Bei did not say anything about it. Liu Bei knew what to say and what not to say. If Liu Bei said more on such an occasion, it would seem that Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun were left alone. In this way, he would naturally offend the generals. Such a thankless thing, please, Liu Naturally, I won't do it.
However, in and out of Liu Bei's words, he expressed his views on the disappearance of Zhang Liang's department. Liu Bei has explained that Zhang Jiao's war is unfavorable. Since Zhang Jiao is in trouble, it is reasonable for Zhang Liang to go to the rescue, but Liu Bei did not say this and let Huang Fu Song and Zhu Jun think about it by themselves. In this way, even if the judgment is wrong, there is nothing wrong with Liu Bei. Anyway, Liu Bei told the truth.
"Oh? Are you saying that Zhang Jiao was defeated in Guangzong and the war was unfavorable?
How could Huang Fu Song not hear the meaning of Liu Bei's words and suddenly grasped the point.
"Yes, when I came, this was the situation. I came all the way from Guangzong, and there was no delay. I think there is no new change now."
Liu Bei gave an affirmative answer for Huang Fu Song.
"Hahaha, so that's it. No wonder Zhang Liang suddenly led the army to escape. Zhang Bao also retreated 20 miles. Sure enough, it was God who helped me. What do you think, Lord Huangfu? Should we set out now to eliminate Zhang Bao's big trouble, and then wave Guangzong to eliminate Zhang Jiao and Zhang Liang? Unfortunately, we have 50,000 troops, but the cavalry is only 5,000. Otherwise, we must have gained a lot from chasing Zhang Liang now.
After getting the affirmative answer, Zhu Jun suddenly became happy, as if the Yellow Turban Army would be destroyed in an instant.
"I'm afraid this matter is not that simple. If Zhang Liang goes to save Zhang Jiao, then why doesn't Zhang Bao go? If Zhang Bao doesn't go, he must stay to contain us. Since he wants to restrain us, why should Zhang Bao's camp retreat? Do you want to run?"
I only heard Huangfu Song say it alone, as if he was asking the opinions of the generals, or as if he was talking to himself.
"General Huangfu's worries are indeed reasonable, but now that the two armies of Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao are separated and cannot reinforce each other, it is a good time for our army to attack. If we don't attack now and let go of Zhang Bao's 100,000 yellow scarves, I'm afraid the court will blame us for missing the fighter. I don't think it's as good as this. I'll lead the soldiers to chase Zhang Bao. General Huangfu stayed in Guangzong. Isn't this the best of both sides?
Seeing that Huang Fu Song was hesitant, Zhu Jun finally put forward his own opinion.
"This is not good. Although the Yellow Turban Army is divided into troops, there are also 100,000 thieves under Zhang Bao. I'm afraid it will be a drop in the bucket. If we are trapped by the yellow scarf thieves, it will not be worse."
Huangfu Song said again worriedly.
"What should we do? We can't just wait to do nothing, can we?"
Zhu Jun said helplessly to Huang Fu Song. Originally, Zhu Jun and Huang Fu Song were both generals, and there was no difference between high and low, but Huang Fu Song was in the army and took good care of himself. Therefore, since the two people were together, Zhu Jun took Huang Fu Song as the leader and retreated to the second line and fought for Huang Fu Song. Now it is a good time to fight when he sees the Yellow Turban Army division. Huang Fu Song is afraid of wolves and tigers, which makes Zhu Jun very helpless and can't help losing his temper.
"And as an adult, I don't know whether to say a few words or not?"
Seeing that Huang Fu Song and Zhu Jun disagreed, a voice suddenly appeared. Everyone looked back and it was Liu Bei who spoke.
"If you have anything to say, just say it. This military agreement is to speak freely. Everything that is beneficial to the war is unspeakable."
Huang Fu Song glanced at Liu Bei and spoke to Liu Bei.
"Two generals, now the trouble of the Han Dynasty is the yellow scarf. As long as you can eliminate the yellow scarf and protect my Han industry, why do you care about the gains and losses of one city and one place as an adult?"
The meaning of Liu Bei's words is very simple. Yingchuan is just a city, and it is nothing for a big man. Even if its strategic position is important, it is not important to eliminate Zhang Bao. You know, if Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun can eliminate Zhang Bao, it is equivalent to removing a major force of the Yellow Turban Army. In contrast, the gains and losses of Yingchuan City are really nothing.
As soon as Liu Bei said this, Huang Fu Song and Zhu Jun looked at Liu Bei at the same time. They were surprised by Liu Bei's vision and could see through this, at least it showed that Liu Bei had strategic thinking and was a great talent.
"Okay, okay, okay, that's right. These days, I have been worrying about how to save Yingchuan City. Now it seems that my vision is a little rigid. You're right. Now the gains and losses of Yingchuan are no longer important. As long as Zhang Baojun can be eliminated, I believe that in less than half a year, I can flatten the yellow scarf thief.
Huang Fu Song smiled and nodded to Liu Bei. Obviously, he was very satisfied with Liu Bei.
"Haha, Liu Bei, you are really a talent. No wonder Lu Zhonglang will value you so much. So shall we set out immediately to deal with Zhang Bao?
Seeing that Huang Fu Song agreed to chase Zhang Bao, Zhu Jun also praised Liu Bei, and then asked about the time of the army.
"Hahaha, General Zhu Zhonglang, you are still too anxious. I have sent a horse scout. I believe that by noon, I will return it. If we can confirm that Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang will divide the troops, tonight, we will go all the city to raid Zhang Bao, catch him off guard, and strive to determine the world in a battle."
Huang Fu Song laughed and squeezed out a trace of fierceness on his old face. When the generals saw it, their hearts trembled.
Liu Bei, who was sitting in his hand, was shocked when he heard Huang Fu Song's words. You should know that the combat power of the officers is far above that of the Yellow Turban Army. It is still very good to attack the 100,000 Yellow Turban Army with 50,000 officers. However, at this time, Huangfu Song still has to use the method of sneak attack. It can be imagined that the 100,000 Yellow Turban Army was attacked by the elite of 50,000 officers. I'm afraid that it is difficult for Zhang Bao to get out.
Liu Bei finally had a deep understanding of Huangfu Song's old and spicy food.
"Reward the general and look for the horse in return. Zhang Liang's department has gone in the direction of Guangzong. Zhang Bao's department, after retreating 30 miles, only set up a simple camp, and then retreated 30 miles to the right.
While everyone was discussing, a waiter suddenly rushed in and reported to Huangfu Song.
"What? No, Zhang Bao wants to run.
Zhu Jun lost his voice and shouted.
"Where is Zhang Baojun camp now?"
Huangfu Song was shocked again when he heard this and quickly asked the guards.
"General, Zhang Baojun has now retreated to a mountain and built a camp on the mountain."
The waiter replied in a hurry.
"It seems that this treasure is afraid that we will attack him, so he is ready to defend against the mountain. If he wins, he will go out of the mountain, and if he loses, he will retreat into the mountain. What a good thought."
Zhu Jun immediately made a judgment, and then turned his head to look at Huangfu Song, waiting for Huangfu Song's final decision.
"It is said that the three armies will start to rest now. We will make dinner in the evening and set out at night. Tonight, I will attack Zhang Bao at night and destroy him in one fell swoop."
Huangfu Song raised his eyebrows and made a decision. This time, Huangfu Song made a great determination to kill Zhang Bao in one fell swoop.
"Yes"
After listening to Huangfu Song's words, the generals answered loudly, and then went down to prepare.
"Two generals, is our army really going to come out and not leave people to guard the city? I'm always a little worried."
Just after the generals left one after another, Liu Bei arched his hand and said his worries to Huang Fu Song and Zhu Jun.
"Didn't you say that you can't get stuck in the gains and losses of the city by eliminating the yellow scarf? Why do you say that now?"
Zhu Jun was a little angry about what Liu Bei said.
"The general is right. The villain does think that the elimination of the yellow scarf is the top priority. He should not stick to the gains and losses of one or two cities, but he did not say that the city can be undefed and let the enemy seize it at will."
Although Liu Bei is in favor of destroying Zhang Bao with all his strength, he is indeed very dissatisfied with this practice of attacking the whole city. No matter how talented the general is, he can't be regarded as a helpless. Only by leaving a way out for himself in everything can he care about it.
"Ha ha, well, Liu Bei, you can take your Youzhou army and stay to defend the city. You have worked hard all the way. You just have a rest here. When our army destroys Zhang Bao, we will go to Guangzong together.
Seeing that Liu Bei's worry was not unreasonable, Huangfu Song came up with a compromise. It must be that Liu Bei was sent by Lu Zhi. Even if Huang Fu Song and Zhu Jun were not satisfied, they couldn't say anything, but the good impression left by Liu Bei on these two people was suddenly ruined.
