Three Kingdoms: At the beginning, Lu Bu was mistaken for his father-in-law

Chapter 141 1 Forty decisions, a strong wind has risen (head plus more)

Zhang Liao felt like a thousand-year-old daughter-in-law had become a mother-in-law, so he immediately called together a group of civil servants and generals in the city to discuss the strategy of using troops.

Based on the information and scenes described by the scouts, they estimated that there should be around 5000 people from Jiangdong, with an error of no more than [-].

It's not a lot, but after all, there are only [-] sergeants in Guangling City, and besides the dozens of horses used by the scouts to investigate the military situation, there are no cavalry, so the situation is not optimistic.

"Everyone, tell me what you think." Zhang Liao sat on the handsome chair, looking like he was doing good.

All the important people in the city have arrived, Chen Deng, Lu Su, Yu Jin, Xu Sheng, and some generals and lieutenants.

"General, the last general thinks that Sun Ce must have counted on Wen Houzheng and Cao Cao's battle at Xiaoguan. He doesn't know that Cao's army has been defeated. We just need to close the city gate and wait for the battle. When the battle report is delivered to Sun Ce, he himself will lead the army away."

Xu Sheng was the first to speak. He said confidently: "After all, Guangling City is more than four feet high. If it is attacked by force, the casualties will be too great."

The first to join was the centurion under Zhang Liao's command, and then fought two bloody battles in Donglinkou and Anfengzhai.

In terms of military rank alone, in Guangling City, Xu Sheng is indeed qualified to give advice.

Zhang Liao nodded slightly, looked at Yu Jin again, and motioned for him to speak as well, don't act like an outsider.

As a general, at such a time, there is usually no chance to speak up. In the final analysis, there is not enough weight.

Zhang Liao's actions made Yu Jin feel a little moved, and immediately clasped his fists and said, "General, at the end of the day, I suggest sending a fast horse to seek help from Marquis Wen. Now that the siege of Xiaoguan has been lifted, you only need a fast horse to help, and you can arrive within two days.

Immediately, we can cooperate with Wen Hou Li Yingwai to encircle and suppress Jiangdong. "

Although it is quite satisfactory, it sounds pretty reliable.

In fact, it was quite to his liking.

He just wanted to show off on the battlefield, live up to his eight-foot body, and he didn't want to be idle all the time. He wasn't bloodthirsty or reckless, and there was a difference between the two.

For example, right now, he also hoped that as Yu Jin said, he would lead his own troops to fight out after Lu Bu brought the cavalry. Even if the opponent had [-] to [-] troops, there was a high probability that they would be defeated.

"Yuanlong, Zijing, what do you think?" Zhang Liao looked at Chen Deng and Lu Su, they were the brains that Lin Mo had given him.

The two looked at each other, and Chen Deng spoke first, "I think that this matter really needs to be dispatched to report to Marquis Wen, but I'm afraid that the reinforcements may not be able to arrive, so just stay behind closed doors.

It is not so easy for 3 or [-] people to destroy the city. "

Everyone was suspicious for a while, and they couldn't help looking at Chen Deng, what does it mean that they can't wait for reinforcements?
Zhang Liao raised his forehead and raised his thick eyebrows, "What does Yuanlong mean, please explain in detail."

"General, the battle report sent earlier only stated that our army recaptured Xiaoguan, and Cao Cao was defeated and left Xiang County, so there is no more content. But don't forget, general, Cao Cao's surprise attack on Xiaoguan was to let the [-] troops behind Drive straight into Xuzhou."

Chen Deng swallowed his saliva and continued: "In other words, there are at least [-] troops stationed in Xiangxian County, and they are in a confrontation with Marquis Wen's army.

Although Cao Cao was defeated for a while, he could not completely defeat him. If Marquis Wen suddenly transferred the cavalry away, Cao Cao would be fearful, but the overall strength of Marquis Wen was still far inferior to Cao Cao. "

After being dialed by Chen Deng, Zhang Liao immediately understood.

Sooner or later, Cao Cao will know about Sun Ce's crossing of the river, but he must not know clearly. If Marquis Wen transfers all the cavalry away, Cao Cao will definitely feel that Guangling is in danger, and there may be a sudden attack at that time.

Considering the overall situation, that kid Yunwen probably didn't agree with sending the cavalry away either.

"Moreover, Sun Ce probably came here to encourage Cao Cao and let him know that Marquis Wen's rear is in trouble. Sun Ce hopes that Cao Cao and Marquis Wen will continue to fight, so that he can profit from it."

This time it was Lu Su who made the supplement. He said in a deep voice, "So I also agree, close the city gate and be prepared to defend it."

Closing the city gates may sound like nothing to do with convenience, but it is not.

With the current advantages described in terms of military strength, Sun Ce can definitely leave a team to contain himself, and then lead people to capture or plunder the surrounding counties and towns.

Only one or two were conquered, and the other counties saw that they did not send troops, and then they would surrender without a fight with Jiangdong soldiers.

In the end, there will only be one Guangling County left in the entire Guangling County.

This is what Zhang Liao doesn't want to see.

Putting it all together, the situation in front of me is actually quite bad.

Sun Ce led his troops here, he could not only cheer Cao Cao on the northern battlefield, but also take advantage of the opportunity to fish in troubled waters.

It is unlikely that his small force will hinder his strategy of grabbing land everywhere.

In case of being hit by a siege point again, it is estimated that Guangling will not be able to hold it.

It is not the best policy to stick to the city, how to do it.
Then, a voice sounded in Zhang Liao's mind: The true and the false, never let the enemy guess what you are thinking and what you are going to do, only by taking surprises can you win.

The sound was like a bell in the morning and a drum in the evening, instantly clearing up Zhang Liao's muddy brain, and the fog in front of him suddenly dissipated.

He slowly got up from the handsome chair and walked to Chen Deng and Lu Su, turned to them sideways, and asked, "Sun Ce suffered a lot in Guangling. Of course he knows how the defense of Guangling city is, but he firmly chose Coming across the river, what does that mean?"

The two frowned slightly, not knowing what Zhang Liao wanted to do.

Zhang Liao raised his head and continued: "This shows that he either has a plan to destroy the city, or he is preparing to use the method of plundering the land."

Of course Chen Deng and Lu Su knew this. In war, they would have to pay some price if they were defeated head-on, and they couldn't take advantage of all the good things.

But as long as Cao Jun retreats, Sun Ce can only return to Jiangdong honestly.

What's more, Chen Deng has been wandering here among the big families. He is too aware that these county towns are not so easy to handle, so he firmly believes that the best policy is to stick to it.

Seeing that the two did not open their mouths to refute, Zhang Liao raised the corners of his mouth slightly, blew his nose, and said to himself: "If we want to defeat the enemy, we must keep in mind the reality and the truth, and we can win by surprise!"

"Oh?"

Chen Deng became interested, raised his head and asked, "May I ask the general how he plans to send out surprise troops?"

"There are [-] people coming from Jiangdong, and our army is only [-]. He expected that I would not dare to send troops, but I decided to do the opposite and take the initiative to attack. I also wanted to lead my army into the enemy's formation before they established a stronghold, behead the generals and capture the flag. Kill them and they will be defeated!"

Among other things, this impassioned declaration directly made Xu Sheng's blood boil, and he immediately shouted: "Wow! The last general is willing to fight with the general!"

Yu Jin said that he was numb, you are a real tiger, there are only so few people, and there are no cavalry, so you plan to rush out to meet the opposite party?
You are too surprised that the truth is true or not, Yu Jin said that he couldn't understand.

When Chen Deng and Lu Su heard this, they waved their hands again and again, "It's impossible, General, this Guangling is the backyard of Xuzhou, and the General led his troops out lightly. If there is any danger, Guangling will be lost!
And if Guangling is lost, Sun Ce is likely to take advantage of the situation to attack Xiapi. At that time, Xuzhou will be in chaos, Cao Cao will take advantage of the situation, and even Yunwen will no longer be able to stabilize the situation! "

Lu Su said solemnly: "General, this is a move that affects the whole body. If the army is defeated, the consequences will be disastrous."

"Even the young master has said that the use of soldiers is the use of danger. If there is no danger, how can there be a surprise soldier? The general thinks it is worth a try!" Xu Sheng was excited by Zhang Liao's words at the moment, wishing to kill him immediately with a knife, he didn't take their words seriously.

Chen Deng gouged him out, and said coldly: "A wise man doesn't think about victory, but about defeat. How many Lin Yunwen do you have in the world! Don't talk about anything else, let me ask you if you can lose this battle?"

Seeing that the smell of gunpowder in the council hall was heavy, Zhang Liao hurriedly raised his hands and pressed it, "Okay, stop arguing!"

Of course, this Guangling cannot be lost. What Chen Deng and Lu Su said is correct.

However, if he wants to make a comeback right now, taking the initiative to attack is definitely in line with what Yunwen said.

He paced back and forth in the hall, thinking quickly in his mind how to solve the predicament in front of him.

After a while, he stood still in the middle of the hall, took a deep breath, "I have made up my mind, I will take the initiative to attack, and I will catch Jiangdong soldiers by surprise!"

As the supreme military commander of Guangling City, General Zhonglang, he has the right to make any orders.

Chen Deng and Lu Su's hearts sank, and when they wanted to persuade them again, Zhang Liao continued: "However, I will only bring [-] personal guards to fight, and the rest will stay in the city. If this is the case, I will be defeated, and you will be defeated." But if we stick to the risk, we will not affect the overall situation.”

"The general is entrusted with a heavy responsibility, how can he take the risk himself? You should know that Sun Ce is known as the little overlord of Jiangdong. His martial arts are amazing and he has the courage of the overlord. You should not underestimate him!"

"What's more, with only 800 people, Jiangdong's [-] troops, how can this be broken, please think twice."

Both of them thought that Zhang Liao must be crazy, and he took 800 people to attack his 3 troops.

If it's eight hundred Bingzhou wolf riders, I won't say anything. If you can't beat them, you can always run. Your eight hundred guards are all infantry, how can you run?
In fact, even the Eight Hundred Bingzhou Wolf Riders would not be able to do such a heaven-defying thing, at least, in the eyes of Lu Su and Chen Deng, it was absolutely impossible.

Zhang Liao sneered, shook his head and said, "Zhao Zilong single-handedly dared to break through thousands of Cao's camp without defeat, not to mention I have [-] personal guards, so why be afraid of Jiangdong Sun Ce!"

"General, Zhao Yunzhi's bravery is rare in the world"

Before Chen Deng finished speaking, Zhang Liao glared at him, "Why, could it be that I'm made of mud? I've made up my mind, don't say more, Wen Xiang will prepare with me."

After speaking, he looked at Yu Jin again, "Wen can go if he wants to. If he doesn't want to, he can stay in Guangling."

As a subjugated general, he is not qualified to be his own master, but Zhang Liao still gave him enough respect. I have to say that Yu Jin is very grateful to Zhang Liao in his heart.

Coupled with the generous treatment of Lu Bu and Lin Mo, who promised him that he would not let him fight Cao Jun in this life, everyone has achieved this. Now they are still timid when fighting Jiangdong, but they have lost their martial style.

Yu Jin strode up to follow, and said in a cold voice: "Don't say eight hundred, even eighty would like to fight with the general, afraid? I'm afraid I'm squatting to pee!"

"That's how he looks like a hero!" Zhang Liao chuckled.

Regardless of Chen Deng and Lu Su shaking their heads helplessly, the three swaggered to order soldiers.

Zhang Liao's [-] personal guards were not included in any barracks, just like the trapped camp, so it was very simple to mobilize.

However, it takes some work to put on the armor and sharpen it, because they are all heavy infantry now.

In fact, at first Zhang Liao wanted to bring them all into cavalry, and they were elite cavalry. After a rough calculation of the cost, he found that [-] gold was not enough, not even enough to buy war horses, let alone other equipment.

What should I do, the combat power of being trapped in the camp is unparalleled, but Zhang Liao seems too clumsy and doesn't like it.

In the end, it could only be built according to the heavy armored infantry. Unlike the trapped camp, they did not build large shields in pursuit of flexibility, but built different weapons according to the requirements of these personal guards.

Some are holding halberds, some are holding double knives, there are also long knives and long spears, and they are all different.

Such an army is unique in the camp.

Zhang Liao, Yu Jin, and Xu Sheng stood still in the school field, in front of eight hundred guards in heavy armor. Although their movements were not as fast as usual, they were much more flexible than being trapped in the camp because they did not hold a shield.

This battle is to fight more with less, with the weak against the strong. Mobilization before the battle is very important. Although they are all veterans who have wrestled with Zhang Liao in the blood since Yanmen Pass, it is an old rule to fight before the battle. Links cannot be saved.

At the same time, Sun Quan led all the [-] troops off the ship and was heading towards Guangling City.

After discussing with Han Dang, he decided to set up a stronghold ten miles outside the city.

Judging from the sheepskin map, the Xiazhai point is a high ground, not too far away from the current, and it will not fall into the opponent's plan of flooding like Liu Xun did during the Battle of Lujiang.

"Uncle Han, this time Danyang came out in full force, but elder brother and Gong Jin didn't express the strategy to defeat the enemy in the letter. I don't know how Uncle Han thinks we should deal with ourselves?" Sun Quan, with purple eyebrows and blue eyes, asked humbly.

As a team member who followed Sun Jian to conquer the world, although he is a general, the experience accumulated over the years is more than enough to teach Sun Quan.

The resolute face and bronzed complexion in armor all show the bravery of this veteran.

He looked ahead, and said in a deep voice: "In my opinion, the strategy of plundering the land should be carried out, and then Xu Tu will break the city. However, it is not known whether the lord and Gong Jin have other plans."

Sun Quan nodded. He also thought about the method of land grabbing, but he didn't agree with it in his heart.

Once the land is plundered, it is tantamount to tearing faces with the local people and even the aristocratic family. If you want to truly occupy Guangling and use it for me, the best way is to drive Lu Jun out of Guangling City.

Of course, in front of Han Dang, Sun Quan was just a young child with a yellow mouth, so he dared not offer any opinions.

While chatting, they arrived at the place where they were stationed. Sun Quan looked at Han Dang and said respectfully, "Uncle Han, setting up camp is not a one-time job. This place is not far from Guangling City. Why don't you bring troops to the city to form a deterrent?" , shook the morale of the soldiers in the city."

Appreciation flashed across Han Dang's eyes, "Not bad, not bad, the tiger father has no sons, and the young master really has the wisdom of the former master."

"Okay, since Uncle Han agrees, then leave 3000 people to stay in the village, and the rest will follow me to Guangling."

Sun Quan, who expected that his opponent would not dare to leave the city, planned to take people to Guangling.

Even though he was young and frivolous, Sun Quan had no intention of showing off his might.

On the one hand, this trip intends to kill the morale of the defenders in the city, and on the other hand, it is to carefully inspect the city defenses. Maybe there will be unexpected gains?
Under Guangling City, a strong wind has risen.
