The beginning of the Three Kingdoms Cheng Yuanzhi

Chapter 125
It seems that my understanding of the lord is still far from in place!
As soon as he said he was illiterate, he recited a poem that rhymed very well and fit the occasion, and he also encountered a difficult problem.

It's puzzling!
Could it be said that there are really people who are born with knowledge in the world?
Unable to figure it out, Ju Shou decided not to worry about it, but instead asked: "My lord, when will we attack the three east counties of Jizhou?"

Cheng Yuanzhi pondered and said: "How is the situation in the three eastern counties now? Who will be the guard and how many soldiers and horses does he have?"


This question was about Jushou's strengths, and he immediately spit and said, "Gongsun Zan previously appointed Yan Gang as the governor of Jizhou to command the three eastern counties. After Yan Gang was killed by Qu Yi, the three eastern counties are now doing their own thing."

"The defender of the Hejian Kingdom is his son Gongsun Xu. Originally the defenders were [-], but now [-] troops have been dispatched to aid Yuyang."

"The general of Bohai County is his younger brother, Gongsun Fan, who has [-] guards and [-] soldiers and horses have been dispatched to help Yuyang."

"Liu Bei, the governor of Leling County, has an army of [-], and the soldiers and horses have never been mobilized."

"In addition, Tian Kai is the governor of Qingzhou with [-] soldiers and horses, and Shan Jing is the governor of Yanzhou with [-] troops and horses. There has been no change in the two departments."

"Gongsun Zan led [-] soldiers and horses to guard Yuyang, and Zou Dan and Guan Jing each led [-] soldiers and horses to guard Liaoxi and other counties."

From this troop deployment and personnel arrangement, it can be seen that Yan Gang, Shan Jing, and Tian Kai are Gongsun Zan's confidantes.

Gongsun Zan was invincible in three battles against Jizhou. After Yan Gang died in battle, he had to focus on Youzhou.

At this time, he had stationed 11 soldiers and horses in Youzhou.In Yanzhou, Qingzhou, and Jizhou, there are only [-] horses combined.

Cheng Yuanzhi mused, "Gongyu, what should be the first choice?"


Jushou took the brocade map from his arms, unfolded it and said, "Go out in three directions, from north to south, and cut the head and tail into two pieces!"

"Then, defend from the north and attack from the south, gather superior forces to wipe out Gongsun Zan's troops entrenched in Qingzhou and Yanzhou!"

I know all of this... Cheng Yuanzhi raised his forehead and said, "Be more specific!"


Jushou was a little embarrassed: "Three roads go out together, and the siege needs to be done in order. The first road will besiege Hejian Kingdom. At that time, the soldiers will not attack, and the guard of Bohai Sea, Gongsun Fan, will be lured to rescue. Our army is on the way Ambush him!"

"Afterwards, the second army encircled the Bohai Sea, and repeated the old trick, luring Liu Bei to send troops to rescue him, and intercepted and killed him halfway!"

"Then station a strong force in the north of Leling County to block the troops from Qing and Yan who come to help. First map the river, then map the Bohai Sea, and then map Leling."

"In this way, my lord can take full control of Jizhou!"

Cheng Yuanzhi nodded again and again, got on his horse, clamped his legs, Chou Er jumped out, and galloped towards Hejian Kingdom.

Ju Shou quickly put the brocade silk into his arms, got on his horse, and led more than a hundred soldiers to follow.

Before Cheng Yuanzhi came to Yuyang to watch the battle, the three-way siege troops had already settled down.The two ambushes still need to be dispatched separately.

Just wait for the ambush to fall, and it's time to start.

As the horse galloped, the wind was cold, but it made people feel high-spirited.

Cheng Yuanzhi came to this era of war and chaos, not to kill Gou Quan in the troubled times, nor to travel, but to coerce the princes of the world!

However, it may not be so easy to seize the Hejian Kingdom and unify Jizhou and even Hebei.

No matter how brilliant the strategy is, Gongsun Xu has an actual force of [-] troops in the city.

According to the battle loss ratio of five times between the attacking and defending sides, if you want to quickly capture the Hejian Kingdom, you need to kill at least [-] soldiers.

How does this make it?
So unless it was absolutely necessary, Cheng Yuanzhi never wanted to do it hard.

If you love me, it will happen when it happens.

Reckless behavior will only make people feel dissatisfied!
Furthermore, it is true that kindness does not command soldiers, but a general who does not sympathize with soldiers will definitely not get the desperate effect of soldiers.

As the saying goes: If the king regards his ministers as his hands and feet, then his ministers will regard him as his heart and soul; if the king regards his ministers as dogs and horses, then his ministers will regard him as a countryman; if his ministers regard his ministers as earth and mustard, then his ministers will regard him as a bandit.

In this way, the way to use troops is to be cautious.

While walking, Ju Shou seemed to have thought of something, and he caught up and said, "My lord, Gongsun Xu is weak and incompetent. He only needs to surround the three and miss one. Within three days, he will abandon the city and flee."

"At that time, you need to tell the subordinates to stop his soldiers and horses. As for his people, you can let him go, and you must not kill him rashly."

Cheng Yuanzhi reined in his horse and asked doubtfully, "Oh? Why?"

That's Gongsun Zan's son, you say you won't kill him if you don't?Gotta give a reason!

Besides, being kind to your opponent is being cruel to yourself!I'm not a tiger-infested person.

Ju Shou said: "My lord, right now our main purpose is to scheme against Jizhou and Qingzhou, not to fight Gongsun Zan to the death. If he kills his son today, Gongsun Zan will abandon Liu Yu and attack me. Isn't it unwise to do so!"

"A while ago, because of the murder of his younger brother Gongsun Yue, Gongsun Zan was so angry that he mobilized troops to attack..."

Seeing that Jushou continued to list 1 reasons to convince himself, Cheng Yuanzhi, who had already been bullied too much to fight back, quickly raised his hand and said:
"Okay, okay, just do it according to your plan."

Drunk, what subordinates are these?Whenever there is a chance, I will hate the lord!

Ju Shou was overjoyed, handed over his hands to promise, called messengers, and passed on the siege strategy to all ministries.

Cheng Yuanzhi sat comfortably on the horse, and only reminded him from the side: "Gongsun Zan's soldiers and horses are all soldiers of Youyan, Hebei, and the priority is surrender, and they must not be killed indiscriminately!"


Ju Shou was taken aback, if this is the case, how can the battle be fought?
Gongsun Xu can't kill him, and neither can his soldiers and horses. Isn't he rampant and invincible?
In doubt, seeing Cheng Yuanzhi added: "Surround but not kill, force him to surrender."

"Don't kill indiscriminately, not don't kill!"

That's it!

Ju Shou hurriedly said: "My lord, this method is very high!"

You can kiss ass!Cheng Yuanzhi looked at Jushou in shock.

It is said in the book that Jushou is a rectum, to what extent, that is to say, Jushou has never been constipated since he was a child and died.

When he was a child, Jushou studied with a famous teacher. There were more than a dozen children who were about his size at the same age. The time spent by others in the toilet generally varied from one to two times a day.

But everyone has never seen Jushou squatting in a pit.

So a dozen or so children were very curious, and took turns guarding the latrine for three days, and finally waited for Jushou.

Just as Jushou entered the latrine, they pushed the door open behind them.

As a result, they saw that Jushou was already putting on his clothes.

It's over...

From then on, Jushou got another nickname: his intestines are too straight - he doesn't leave feces.

Cheng Yuanzhi didn't know if this legend was true or not, but it might not be without reason, so he muttered in a voice that Jushou could hear:

"The intestines are too..."

As soon as he raised his head, he saw Jushou's face suddenly turned pale, Cheng Yuanzhi quickly stopped talking, looked forward, and turned to think about the situation in Jizhou.

He realized that as a master, he could not joke around with his subordinates, nor could he play tricks on his subordinates for fun.

If you are not careful, you will turn into enemies.

For example, in the past, King You of the Zhou Dynasty used beacon fire to play with the princes, and how to fight against Cao Cao.

……

Bai Yuqi galloped again, and Cheng Yuanzhi's thoughts diverged:

Well, first get Jizhou, and then go to Qingzhou next.


Finally, return to Shitu Youzhou.

Hope to settle all this within three years!
