The Three Kingdoms began with the rescue of Mrs. Mi

Chapter 157 Attack Nanyang, Liao Hua, Zhou Cang

Historically, Guan Yu's Northern Expedition, flooding the Seventh Army in Fancheng, and capturing General Jin and Pang De of Cao Jun was the climax and the last glorious moment of Guan Yu's leading combat career.

Liu Feng generally recognized Guan Yu's strategy of encircling Xiangyang and attacking Fancheng, but he did not quite approve of the specific battle command.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of going to Dangyang, Liu Fengzheng wanted to have a good talk with Guan Yu.

Guan Yinping's heart belonged, and Guan Yu naturally liked his cheap disciple and son-in-law more and more.

the student surpasses the master.The experience of Liu Feng's lone army returning from Jiangdong also resonated strongly with Guan Yu, who returned from Cao Cao after five passes and six generals.

"Frankly, you send an order to Commander Xu and the generals on my behalf. There is an urgent military meeting to be held." Guan Yu ordered Guan Ping.Regarding the next battle of Xiangfan, Guan Yu had rehearsed it many times in his mind, and now he wanted to hear Liu Feng's opinion.

After Xu Shu, Wang Fu, Zhao Lei, Liao Hua, Zhou Cang and others heard the news, they rushed over from all the camps. Liao Hua, who was farthest away, was the last to arrive. Seeing Liu Feng smiled at him, he hurried forward greet.

Seeing Liu Feng returning from Jiangdong safely, Xu Shu was quite excited. Compared with others, he, the deputy military adviser Zhonglang General, had a clearer understanding of Liu Feng's mission and mission to Jiangdong this time.

Liu Feng saw that the famous generals and officials in Guan Yu's army were almost all there, so he stopped being a fan and began to talk about his ideas.

"May I ask you, my lords, and all of you, with the current strength of our army, one of them encircles Xiangyang and the other attacks Fancheng, which is the ultimate use of troops. If Xiangyang and Fancheng cannot be attacked for a long time, what should we do?" Liu Fengfeng said to The generals of Guan Yu's army were not stage-frightened, pointing to the directions of Xiangyang and Fancheng on the silk map, and asked.

Guan Yu was stunned, he couldn't attack Fancheng, so he retreated back and fought again, what else could he do?
Seeing Guan Yu's slightly stunned expression, Liu Feng knew that Guan Yu's current vision was still only around Xiangyang. The battle situation is still insufficient.

"Your lords, gentlemen, take a look. Xiangyang's grain, fodder and supplies come from Fancheng, and Fancheng's supplies come from Nanyang County. If you only besiege Xiangyang and Fancheng instead of attacking Nanyang County, then Cao Jun can rely on Wancheng, Yancheng, The transportation line in Fancheng continuously transports grain, fodder, soldiers, and supplies, and if it lasts for a long time, even if our army wins one or two battles, it will not have much impact on the overall situation."

Guan Yu stroked his beard and fell silent.

Xu Shu's face changed when he heard this, and he sighed, "If you say that, our army will win or lose, lose or lose, so why fight?"

What Xu Shu said was mysterious, but Guan Ping, Zhao Lei and others understood it. With the strength of half of Nanjun and the Cao army sitting in Nanyang County, with the Central Plains behind them, it is too likely to win a protracted battle. small.

Liu Fengchao nodded approvingly to Xu Shu, and continued: "So, if we want to fight Xiangyang and Fancheng, we can focus on these two cities, but we must take a long-term view and focus on Nanyang County. Wancheng area."

"We can send out several elite troops from Dongsan County to the east of Shangluo and infiltrate Nanyang County. In this way, there are three advantages: First, Cao Cao is good at calling Wei Gong, and there will be objections within the court. Making a feigned attack on Xudu can encourage these loyal men to respond positively, so Cao Cao is too busy dealing with the chaos in the court, so he will have no time to take care of the affairs of the army."

"Secondly, Xudu is facing our army's attack. If Cao Cao can't bear the pressure and moves his capital to Yecheng, Cao's army's supply line will be extended. Compared with our army, it will have no advantage in supply. Favorable conditions."

"The third, and the most practical benefit, is that after we intensify our raids on Cao's rear, it will become very difficult for Cao's army to transport rice and grain to Fancheng. In this way, the enemies of the two cities will be destitute and without food, and they will collapse without a fight."

In front of Guan Yu, Xu Shu and others, Liu Feng finally spoke out all his plans for the Northern Expedition. Compared with Guan Yu's simple plan of besieging Xiang and attacking Fan, Liu Feng's concept was undoubtedly more ambitious and more powerful. wisdom.

This is the advantage of the traversers, and it is also the valuable experience accumulated by Liu Feng and the Second Generation.

"Send troops from Dongsan County to attack Nanyang, Wancheng, Xudu, Yuantong. Could it be that you have already thought of going north to Xudu when you attacked Dongsan County two years ago?"

After listening to Liu Feng's long narration, Guan Yu asked with joy on his maroon face.

Nanyang County is also affiliated to Jingzhou. It is the largest county in the name, with a population of more than two million. If we can make some articles in this place, Cao Jun will definitely be in trouble without fighting.

Just attacking from Nanjun to the north, the front is Xiangyang and Fancheng. If you want to cross these two cities and attack northward, unless you don't want to live alone, even if you can get some results, you won't be able to persist for a long time.

However, if you want to attack Nanyang County from Dongsan County, you only need to go slightly north from the direction of Wuguan Road, and cross Mount Lu and Mount Hua in the Shangluo area, which breaks into the Nanyang Basin.

Xu Shu, Guan Ping, Wang Fu, Liao Hua, Zhao Lei and others all clapped their hands excitedly. They fought Nanyang from the three eastern counties. Liu Feng's thinking was really unconstrained. No trace to be found.

Seeing that everyone's emotions were mobilized, Liu Feng paused for a while and said, "However, although the plan is good, it still needs a capable general to lead. If there is chaos in Nanyang, Cao Cao will definitely suppress his anger, and it is inevitable to send heavy troops to encircle and suppress it. Our army Going deep alone, if you don't have the tenacious ambition to fight every battle, if you don't have resourceful and changeable tactics, everything will be nothing."

"When I was in Dongsan County, I heard that Sun Lang and other members of the Yellow Turban remnant party gathered in Xiao Township. They were very famous. You can send your confidants to contact them and use them as Austrian aid."

"Master Liao Bo and General Zhou Pi, you once fought side by side with Generals Liu Pi and Gong Du. I don't know if you are familiar with the counties of Luhun, Liang, and Jia in Nanyang, and you are willing to be generals and lead an army alone. Out of Nanyang?"

"The little general also knows about us..." Liao Hua and Zhou Cang were startled when they heard that Liu Feng would nominate their generals in public, and then looked at each other with ecstasy on their faces.

Liu Feng looked at Liao Hua, who was not yet thirty years old and had no vicissitudes on his face, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. There is no general in Sichuan, and Liao Hua is the vanguard. This is so helpless. Now that he has the opportunity, he must let Liao Hua show his ability early. .

"Okay, I'll listen to you, Yuan Tong, Yuan Jian, Yuan Fu, you guys went to Nanyang, don't make a fuss, don't say that I'm a subordinate of someone."

Guan Yu laughed, and waved his hands at Liao Hua and Zhou Cang, expressing that he had no objection.

Liao Hua is the leader of the army, and Zhou Cang is a personal general. Guan Yu can trust the loyalty of these two people. He had intended to let them go out to exercise, but there was no one around, so it was delayed again.

Now that Liu Feng is speaking on behalf of Xiang, Guan Yu realizes that he is indeed too conservative in employing people. The best way to employ people is to release Liao and Zhou Zhou early.
