I stared at the scout and asked: "Then did Yuan Shu Army succeed in crossing the river? Is the Taichung County still in the hands of our army? " The scout said, "Fortunately, Tian Yu, who was guarding the city with the Wang Clan, used words to affect the Wang Clan and caused them to be ashamed. That was why they were unable to force Yuan Shu to cross the river while surrendering!" I put my hand on my forehead and said thankfully, "Phew! So dangerous! So dangerous! Tian Yu? Who is Tian Yu? "
Gongsun Zan, who was standing beside me, answered, "Tian Yu, step aside. He had a great deal of power, and I wanted to use him, but I didn't know how to use him. Furthermore, he had a good relationship with General Xianyu Fu who was originally under Liu He's command, and Xianyu Fu himself was lamenting that he was not as talented as Tian Yu. When I heard this, I was overjoyed and said, "Good! I have added Tian Yu as the deputy general, so all the people under the Royal Sect will belong to Tian Yu. I have also given a few hundred soldiers to Tian Yu to guard the Taichung County against Yuan Shu. " The plan has been set, and I am actively preparing to head north to Jingzhou.
On the other hand, Yuan Shu packed up the handicapped veterans and returned to Lingling County. The other six lines of Yuan Shu Army all retreated after hearing the news of Yuan Shu's defeat. After winning this battle, I also want to use this opportunity to chase after the Jingzhou and completely eliminate Yuan Shu. I have ordered the gathering of troops and the preparation of military supplies, to come to Jingzhou at any time.
Yuan Shu's army of seven had only lost one of their own, while the other six had not been harmed. Yuan Shu planned to use these troops to avenge his first attack, so when he ordered his men to gather more troops, he learnt that all his men were charging towards the Jiao Prefecture again.
Although Yuan Shu still has a hundred thousand people left, I am not afraid at all. Compared to last time, the situation is not that serious! The number of people I can use now is close to 40,000. My army has just won, what do I have to fear?
He pointed at the three people he had brought with him and introduced them one by one. "Master, this is Zhang Fan, this is Zhang Cheng, and this is Shu Zhong. The three of them were all famous celebrities! When they saw the traitor Yuan Shu, they came to surrender to their lord! "
I was overjoyed upon hearing that, and held onto Shu Zhong's hand as I said: "The former Yuan Shu lost the battle, yet you gave the military rations of your technique to the common people. You weren't afraid of Yuan Shu's power at all, and said: 'You clearly knew that if I did this, I would have definitely died, so you did it on purpose! I'd rather save the people with my own life! ' These words resonated in Chang Le's ears. Chang Le truly admired you for this! Today you can console me for my longing! "
Shu Zhong was extremely grateful to see me like this, with tears in her eyes. I then turned to Zhang Fan and Zhang Cheng and said: "The two of you are famous scholars, before Yuan Shu became the emperor, he summoned the two of you in order to help him with his reputation, and Zhang Cheng's explanation of 'not among the crowd' has given Chang Le quite a bit of guidance, I had long hoped that the two of you could leave Yuan Shu in broad daylight, with your full fame!"
Zhang Fan, Zhang Cheng and Shu Zhong said in unison: "I'm ashamed! Embarrassed! I wish I could be of service to the Lord Fan as soon as possible! " Chen was smiling and said, "There's a good chance right now! I'll let everyone properly accomplish a great deed! " Zhang Fan and I looked at him in confusion.
Chen said with a smile, "I don't know if you've ever heard of writing to the late emperor, saying that you only need to send someone to read the filial scriptures to the Yellow scarf rebel party, and that the Yellow scarf rebel party will definitely appreciate it, and that all of it will fall!"
"Pah!" With a clap of my hands, I opened my mouth wide and laughed, "Zi Hong, are you talking about the 'Filial Classic of Filial Retreat' that has been a joke for a long time? If the late emperor used the filial scripture to retreat from the enemy, wouldn't the Yellow Mask Thief be even more savage? Furthermore, this big fellow would most likely not be able to protect him! It was precisely because of this pedantic action that he left behind such a long-lasting joke! Zi Hong, why did you suddenly mention that the filial piety had given up on the enemy? " Zhang Fan and the other two understood that 'filial piety rejecting the enemy' was an extremely foolish action, so how could they think of such a stupid method of seeking their own destruction?
Smiling softly, he gazed at me and said, "My lord, do you know that the great scholar Xiang is within the borders of our Jiao Prefecture?" I frowned and stared at him with wide, puzzled eyes. "So what?" Zheng Tan laughed lightly and said, "My lord, we big men have the highest status in Confucianism. Honor this great scholar still has some appeal, this can attract more people to come to the service of the lord! More importantly, the loyal monarch's patriotic thoughts have been deeply embedded in the hearts of the people ever since the founding of the dynasty. After Yuan Shu became the emperor, he became even more unpopular. The reason why his subordinates still followed him was because they wanted to gain power from him! If some of the more famous scholars were to talk about the filial scripture and the principle of loyalty and patriotism to the soldiers of the Yuan Shu Army, it would probably cause the hearts of the Yuan Shu Army to waver! "
I clapped my hands and praised him, "We have to be courteous and then we will have to fight. We can be considered to have done all that we could to help each other!" Who would have thought that the laughing stock of Zeng Ri would be able to bring out such a wonderful use by giving up his corpse and soul! Haha! Good! Just do it! "
He then said slowly, "My lord, this is just a way to destroy the enemy! Once again, we must show the strength of our army and ruthlessly attack them! Let them know how powerful they are! As long as Yuan Shu Army continues to lose and continues to be defeated, with the explanation of the Book of filial piety, they will definitely fall apart! " I put my left hand under my chin and thought, "Strike? But how can I attack Yuan Shu Army? "
It was clear that he had been familiar with the place for a long time. His eyes released a light aura and said: "Yuan Shu wants to find the main forces of our army to fight it out as soon as possible. And while they are looking, we should find another opportunity to eliminate the Ji Ling Tribe! Unlike last time, when we avoided the main battle of the enemy, we chose the weakest option, but now we have to choose the strongest and hardest one to fight against! Because Ji Ling was the most loyal unit to Yuan Shu! Ji Ling was the strongest in the army, as long as they could eliminate this so called strongest army, the rest of Yuan Shu's army would not lose! "But …"
I know what I'm worried about. This battle is of utmost importance. It's like a gamble. If you win, you will rejoice. If you lose, you lose … The thing I am most afraid of is that we don't have enough troops, that's all!
Just then, I could guess from my eyes that I had already understood his concerns and was about to voice out all of his thoughts: "Our army has forty thousand people, while Yuan Shu's army has a hundred thousand, Ji Ling's army has ten thousand people, we have to use twenty thousand troops to annihilate them!" The other twenty thousand people would have to bear the responsibility of suppressing Yuan Shu's other troops. There were twenty thousand people in Yuan Shu's command that would not be able to move easily. Even if they were to move out, Yuan Shu had left ten thousand people in order to protect himself. With this, Yuan Shu Army will be trapped in ten thousand, left at guard Yuan Shu's place, we will have twenty thousand, and the rest will only have seventy to eighty thousand people. Our twenty thousand people need to control the enemy four times stronger than ourselves, and we will not need to fear all kinds of willpower and willpower! But the remaining twenty thousand people will need to quickly bite off Ji Ling's tough bone! " As he was speaking, he slammed his fist on the table, causing the teacup to bounce up and the table to shake.
I pressed my left palm to my forehead. I felt helpless about my lack of strength, and I didn't have much confidence in completing the task I was supposed to be doing. The expression on his face was firm as he said, "My lord, war is decided not by numbers, but by imagination. As a marshal, although he could not change the situation, he had to give the soldiers their imaginations, and as such, he had to give them his imagination. Give them imagination, will, and faith. The more you give them, the more you get! Lord, you are the commander of an army, the brain center of the entire army. A huge army seems to be controlled by the commander's brain, the commander's every action determines the life and death of a huge army. The commander did not give up. He felt that they would definitely succeed, and infect the soldiers. They would also feel that they would not fail, that they would definitely succeed! "
The words made it clear to me that I was going to act like a manager, and I should be confident about that. Just by looking at my expression, he understood that I had thought through quite a bit and comforted her, "Master, our army's fighting strength is much stronger than Yuan Shu's army. It's not a problem to fight one versus ten, now we just want them to fight one versus four, they can do it! Furthermore, previously, when we made the scholars recite the filial scriptures, Yuan Shu's soldiers were not in the mood to fight. Tigers against lambs, no matter how many lambs there are, why should tigers be afraid? "
I wiped the worry off my face and said, "Zi Hong, you are the best gift God has ever given me! If not for your help, I'm sure I wouldn't be where I am now! Good! I will do as you say! "
Yuan Shu's army rushed towards the Jiao Prefecture. I led my troops to confront Yuan Shu, and built a high platform in the stronghold, allowing Kong Rong, Xiang and Zhang Fan to loudly recite the 'Tribute Sutra'. Confucius said: "The late king had great virtue, to follow the world, civil harmony, up and down no grievances." "You know it?" Ceng Zi took the back seat and said, 'How can you know if you're not sensitive enough?' Confucius said: 'The filial piety is born of virtue, and the teachings are born of it. Recuperate, I say. 'My body is covered in skin, but my parents didn't dare to hurt me. The beginning of my filial piety. '" Kong Rong and the other scholars vividly recited all of their true wishes.
Yuan Shu looked at these scholars who were reading the < Filial Classic > with a puzzled expression, and said: "I really do not understand, what is this traitor Fan Li doing? Could it be that he wanted to adopt the idiotic 'Filial Solemn Classic', which could not be any more foolish, to retreat from the enemy? That's impossible! What is Fan Li planning? "
Yang Hong said from the side: "Could it be that Fan Li wants to use the remnant of a man who was still gasping for breath to summon the soldiers to get angry and mess with me? To cry out for filial piety and loyalty to the king... " "What!" Yuan Shu almost jumped up as he roared at Yang Hong, "Bullshit! I am the chosen one! The sky had long since become clear! The soldiers all understood! The replacement for the big man would definitely be me, Yuan Road! Only I can unite the sea and rule from the bottom! It was impossible for the handicapped to revive again! The soldiers will understand! "
Yang Hong: "..." Yang Hong looked at Yuan Shu again carefully, and understood that he couldn't go against Yuan Shu's words. He changed his words, "Your majesty, it's better to shut up those corrupt scholars!" Yuan Shu listened to Yang Hong's words and sent his troops to attack the fort, but they were all repelled by Fan Li's military arrows.
When Kong Rong and the others read the words, they fell deeply in love. Tears streamed down his cheeks, and he revealed the true feelings of "loyalty to the king and patriotism" and "filial piety" in his heart.
In the end, Kong Rong and the others shouted out "Loyalty and patriotism" and "Loyalty and filial piety". The soldiers of Establishment followed along and shouted out "Loyalty and patriotism" and "Loyalty and filial piety". Their thoughts were surging, and it could not be said that they had no influence.
When I saw that my objective had been accomplished, I left with my army, which was a great temptation to invade the enemy's territory. Yuan Shu could only send more scouts to spy on them.
Scouts flew and reported to Yuan Shu: "Master, Fan Li's army has been retreating, it seems like they are giving up the Jiao Prefecture! In short, Fan Li Army just keeps on retreating! " Yuan Shu also found it strange. "Fan Li's army keeps on retreating? Is there a trick to this? "
Yang Hong, who was beside Yuan Shu, said, "Your Majesty, Fan Li's army is good at fighting in the mountains. Furthermore, their guerrilla tactics are very powerful, allowing the troops that are not good at fighting in the mountains to enter the mountains. Moreover, Fan Li's army was short on manpower, they had given up a large part of their territory just so that it would be convenient for them to reduce their manpower, and gather enough manpower! This was Fan Li Army's style of fighting! The reason why Gongsun Zan lost to Fan Li was because he was not used to fighting in the mountains, and even more so, he could not do anything about the monkey in the deep mountains, which was why he lost! Zhang Jiao, Shi Xie and the others were all defeated by Fan Li's dodging fighting style! Therefore, His Majesty cannot fall for Fan Li's trick! "
Hearing that, Yuan Shu nodded his head repeatedly, and said to the scouts: "Go and find out, is it possible that Fan Li's army had set up some heavy soldiers in the most dangerous place, so that we can fight against them in the mountains!" Yes! "Your majesty!" The scout ran off.
Two days later, the scout reported, "Fan Li's army has arranged enough troops in the mountains! It seems like they want us to fight against their mountain! " Yuan Shu laughed out loud and said: "I knew of Fan Li's conspiracy! I will slowly nibble away at your territory, letting you slowly stay in your mountain! Haha! Order the army to attack the other parts of the Jiao Prefecture! Yang Hong praised, "Your Majesty is wise!"
