Reborn in the Three Kingdoms, I stole Liu Bei's uncle
Chapter 341: Withdrawal from Xuzhou
“Ten thousand times?” Zhang Fei showed a surprised expression. The emotions that had just risen in his heart instantly deflated like a ball. “Uncle, this…”
"It must be completed within a month, otherwise I will never forgive you for losing Xia Pi."
"Uncle, ten thousand times is too much. I definitely can't finish it in one month. Can you give me some more time?"
"Twenty days."
"Uncle, I still have to lead the troops to retake Xia Pi. Can you write after I come back?"
"Fifteen days."
Seeing that Liu Yu spoke less and less, Zhang Fei dared not say anything more and ran out in a hurry.
Zhang Fei was very depressed when he picked up the brush. For a man who had been wielding guns and sticks on the battlefield for many years, lowering his head to write was really a painful and depressing thing.
This pain will accumulate and become more profound over time.
The purpose of Liu Yu's doing this was very simple, which was to make Zhang Fei remember this pain. Only in this way could he remember this lesson.
"My Lord, are you really not going to let General Zhang take back Xia Pi?"
Chen Gong had a deep impression on Zhang Fei's words before he left. He had been thinking about Liu Yu's real intention at this time. Judging from the current situation and troop deployment, it would be difficult to recapture Xia Pi City.
But the problem is, Uncle Liu was kind enough to take Lu Bu in and arranged for him to guard an important place, but now, he took advantage of Uncle Liu's carelessness and stabbed him in the back. Faced with such a situation, who wouldn't want revenge?
"Xia Pi is a strong city that is easy to defend but difficult to attack. If Lu Bu wants to hold on, it will be difficult to break through in a short period of time. If I am not mistaken, Lu Bu's messenger to contact Yuan Shu is already on the way. Yuan Shu has just experienced a great defeat and will naturally not give up any opportunity for revenge. Without my help, they will attack Huaiyang City from the north and south."
When Chen Gong heard Liu Yu's analysis, he couldn't help but admire him secretly. He contacted Yuan Shu and attacked Liu Yu from both sides. This was what Lu Bu planned when he was admonishing Lu Bu. Before Chen Gong had the chance to tell Liu Yu the news, Liu Yu had already thought of it himself.
He was not angry when he was attacked for no reason, and he was able to calmly analyze the current situation in Xuzhou. Just this state of mind made Chen Gong secretly admire him.
The fact that Uncle Liu was able to grow from an unknown and impoverished member of the royal family to an imperial uncle respected by everyone in such a short period of time was definitely not a false reputation.
"My lord's reasoning is absolutely correct. Contacting Yuan Shu is exactly the next step of Marquis Wen's plan. Once the two of them join forces, it will be difficult to resist with the troops in Huaiyang City. Now, if we want to deal with the current situation, we can only mobilize soldiers from Yuzhou."
On the way here, Chen Gong had already carefully analyzed the situation in Xuzhou. Now, if he wanted to gain a foothold in Xuzhou, there was only one way to go, which was to mobilize troops from Yuzhou.
As long as 30,000 elite troops can be mobilized from Yuzhou, the situation in Xuzhou can be temporarily stabilized. As for taking back Xuzhou, a steady stream of troops will be needed.
"Yuzhou was pacified not long ago, and the situation is not completely stable. If we mobilize too few troops from Yuzhou at this moment, it will not be enough to change the situation in Xuzhou. If we mobilize too many troops, it may destroy the situation that Yuzhou has just stabilized. It is not a good idea to mobilize troops from Yuzhou."
Liu Yu also thought about transferring troops from Yuzhou, sending a 100,000-strong army to directly take Xuzhou, but his strength did not allow it!
"My Lord, how do you plan to deal with the current situation in Xuzhou?"
"What else can I do?" Liu Yu smiled faintly, "If you can't win, just run away. Since these people don't want me to occupy Xuzhou, then I will give up Xuzhou."
"My Lord, are you planning to withdraw from Xuzhou?"
"That's right. Let's retreat back to Yuzhou first, and give Xuzhou to Lu Bu."
Chen Gong was slightly surprised. It was obvious that he had not expected such an outcome.
"My lord, Xuzhou was given to you by Tao Qian. How can we give it to Lu Bu easily? Even if you don't want to attack Xia Pi, you should not give up Huaiyang. You only need to give me 5,000 soldiers, and I will be able to protect Huaiyang." Hearing that Liu Yu was going to withdraw from Xuzhou, Xu Chu was reluctant.
"How could I not know Zhongkang's bravery? Given the current situation in Xuzhou, occupying an isolated city is of little significance."
Xu Chu wanted to persuade him again, but Liu Yu waved his hand and said, "I have already made up my mind. No need to persuade me anymore."
Xu Chu immediately stopped talking. Chen Gong, who had been thinking about it, suddenly understood Liu Yu's purpose of withdrawing from Xuzhou.
"Great, great, it's really great. My Lord, giving up Xuzhou is a great idea."
"Gongtai, what's so wonderful about it? I can't figure it out." Xu Chu looked confused and scratched his head subconsciously.
"My Lord, giving up Xuzhou will bring great benefits to me."
Xu Chu was even more confused. There were benefits, and they were huge? Just now, he heard what Chen Gong said, and it was obvious that he was inclined to transfer troops from Yuzhou to seize Xuzhou. How could he change his mind in such a short time?
Xu Chu couldn't figure it out and could only scratch his head.
Under normal circumstances, when Chen Gong said this, Xu Chu would ask, "What's the benefit?" "Please enlighten me," which would be the normal discussion process. Who knew that after waiting for a long time, Xu Chu didn't even ask this question.
This Xu Chu doesn't play by the rules!
Chen Gong's face flashed with embarrassment. He coughed twice, cleared his throat and said, "If in Xuzhou, Cao Cao in the north is eyeing it covetously, Yuan Shu in the south is ready to make a move, and Lu Bu occupies it, if we occupy Huaiyang, they will form a tacit agreement and use all their strength to deal with us, but if we withdraw now, they will instantly lose their unified goal.
It is obvious what will happen next. They will definitely attack for the ownership of Xuzhou. When the time comes, we can just sit back and watch them fight, and then find the right opportunity to take Xuzhou, which will be much easier. "
Liu Yu nodded and smiled. What Chen Gong had just said was part of his plan. It was said that Chen Gongtai was slow in making plans, but now it seemed that he was not late at all.
Xu Chu finally understood the intention of withdrawing the troops. Although he agreed with it in his heart, he was still reluctant. The Xuzhou City that they had obtained with great difficulty became nothing in the blink of an eye. Who would feel good about that?
Having been with Xu Chu for a long time, Liu Yu naturally knew his temper and character. Just by looking at the expression on his face, he understood what he meant.
“Although we have to withdraw our troops, it may not be so easy for them to take Huaiyang without any effort.
Zhongkang, you should quickly organize your troops and prepare for retreat. At the same time, move all the people in Huaiyang City out and prepare more fire starters in the city. Before you leave, I will give them a great gift. "
Liu Yu explained his plan in detail, which made Xu Chu blush. Okay, burn Huaiyang. In this way, even if they don't die, they will lose a layer of skin.
Chen Gong's eyes showed surprise again. If Liu Yu's plan just now was followed, the soldiers who attacked Huaiyang would most likely suffer heavy casualties.
It is said that Uncle Liu is extremely wise and resourceful. Today I have seen it with my own eyes and it is indeed true. It is so terrifying to be an opponent of such a person.
