Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 822 Settling down the Army 2
After two days of delay in Mount Tai, Gongsun Xu led his army to leave. The battle in Qingzhou was not over yet. Yuan Shao was still thinking about counterattacking to take Qingzhou back. Gao Shun was leading an army of [-] to confront Yuan Shao. The two sides had fought several times. He didn't want Yuan Shao to continue to cause trouble for himself, so he wanted to take down the entire Qingzhou as soon as possible.

Huang Zhong and Guan Yu led [-] cavalry to escort Lu Bu and all the wounded to Jizhou to recuperate. As for the rest of Lu Bu's subordinates, they were temporarily transferred to Qingzhou to stand by. Officially appointed, but it is impossible for him to let these generals go at this time.

After two days of marching and arriving in Beihai, Gongsun Xu got in touch with Gao Shun. Yuan Shao's army guarding Chengyang had now increased to 8 troops. In the end, they were repelled by Gao Shun. Later, after Gao Shun received reinforcements, Yuan Shao's army never dared to attack again. At this moment, Gongsun Xu led [-] cavalry to support Gao Shun in Beihai, and the situation was more favorable for the Northern Xinjiang Army.

"Yuan Shao's main force has entered Xuzhou to garrison." Gongsun Xu pointed to the map and said: "The elites under Yuan Shao's command who stayed in Chengyang are also the elite under Yuan Shao's command. It seems that there are only more than 5 people, that is to say, Yuan Shao still has at least 20 troops in his hands.

There are 8 people in Chengyang. From this, it can be seen that Yuan Shao wants to take back Qingzhou. I believe that there must be Yuan Shao’s spies in other places in Qingzhou. Perhaps many aristocratic families are waiting for the sudden change of the situation in order to cooperate with Yuan Shao. Drive out my Northern Frontier Army.A Yuan Shao may not be terrible, but I believe that Cao Cao and the others will definitely not be idle at the moment.

The entire territory of Xuzhou has fallen into the hands of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, and they still have room for detours. Our main task now is to eliminate the vital forces of Yuan Shao's army and take down the entire territory of Qingzhou. If possible, I even want to take the opportunity to enter Xuzhou. I want to take Xuzhou, but at least a few nails have to be inserted in it. "

"The defender of Chengyang is the eldest son of Yuan Shao and his general Gao Lan." Zhao Yun looked at the map and said, "We have contacted Yuan Shao's eldest son, Yuan Tan. He is a man of great ambition and talent. He lost Beihai City. Gao Lan can be regarded as a General Cai can be regarded as a capable general under Yuan Shao's command. If Gao Lan is fully responsible for the defense of the city, it may be difficult for our army to take Chengyang in a short time. If we attack by force, our army may win, but the price must be paid. Not too small, after all, the enemy army has 8 troops in Chengyang, Gao Lan has a good reputation in the army, and won the support of the soldiers."

"Gao Lan is a talent." Gongsun Xu nodded and replied: "He should be able to defend Chengyang. Yuan Shao arranged him here, and he really liked Gao Lan's talent. Unfortunately, Yuan Shaoqian shouldn't Well, we shouldn't arrange our eldest son in Chengyang at this time, we can start with Yuan Tan.

The general of Chengyang is Yuan Tan, not Gao Lan, but the lieutenant soldiers support Gao Lan instead of Yuan Tan. We can design a separation between the two, either let Yuan Tan force Gao Lan to death, or let Yuan Shao transfer Gao Lan away , the strongest walls are breached from the inside, and there is no need for us to attack by force. "

"According to the lord's order, we have sent people to spread rumors." Guo Jia stood up and said, "The situation in Chengyang must be very unfavorable to Gao Lan, but should we attack Yuan Tan? Yuan Tan has no one in his eyes. And it's a great success, if we want to increase their conflicts, we have to start with Yuan Tan. "

"That's right." Gongsun Xu sneered and said, "Yuan Tan is the breakthrough point. Mr. Gongtai, I wonder if you have any clever plan to help me. The battle in Qingzhou cannot be delayed for too long, otherwise the situation will soon be unfavorable to our army. "

Chen Gong didn't expect that Gongsun Xu would ask him for advice. After all, there are a lot of talents in this big tent, and he is a new investor. It is impossible for him to speak in terms of seniority, but Gongsun Xu still asks himself. Chen Gong felt a little flattered.

"I'm not talented, how dare you talk nonsense." Chen Gong quickly replied: "As far as I know, from the confrontation between General Gao Shun and the enemy until now, Gao Lan has never been able to take advantage of General Gao Shun. Yuan Tan has long been dissatisfied with Gao Lan's defense strategy, if Yuan Tan feels that he has the ability to turn the tide, I'm afraid we will have a chance."

"Mr. Gongtai must have a plan, why don't you explain it in detail." Guo Jia said with a smile, "I'm willing to listen to you."

"Fake defeat, lure the enemy to attack." Chen Gong replied: "Why don't you let General Gao Shun send generals to fight? Our generals, or Gao Lan himself, our army is invincible, but if Yuan Tan goes out, we must feign defeat."

"Okay, well said." Gongsun Xu naturally understood what Chen Gong meant, he nodded and smiled, "I just don't know who to send to fight?"The soldiers under my command are also very familiar with each other. If the defeat is too obvious, the enemy will definitely not be fooled. This is a difficult problem. Mr. Gongtai, why don't you share my worries. "

"There are suitable candidates in the tent." Chen Gong looked at Zhang Liao and the others and said, "Zhang Liao, Zang Ba, Song Xian and others will be the new lords. The enemy army is not yet familiar with them. It is definitely the most suitable for them to fight."

"In that case, Wen Yuan, are you willing to fight?" Gongsun Xu looked at Zhang Liao and the others and asked, "The tactic of deceitful defeat is to confuse the real with the fake. You can lose but not win. Can you do it?"

"The last general will definitely be able to do it." Zhang Liao and others quickly knelt down and replied, "Please rest assured, the last general will never delay the general's plan."

Gongsun Xu and Guo Jia looked at each other and smiled, as if they had completed some plan. After the plan was agreed and everyone retreated, Guo Jia smiled and said: "My lord, this move can be regarded as the initial subjugation of Zhang Liao and others."

"They are all talents, and they shouldn't be wasted." Gongsun Xu nodded and said with a smile, "It must be a process of adjustment to join our Northern Frontier Army. Alas, let's start with the Battle of Chengyang."

Outside the big tent, Zhang Liao, Zang Ba and others all caught up with Chen Gong. Today, Chen Gong took a big risk to recommend them, but they still don't know much about this fraudulent plan.

"Sir, what should we do when we arrive in Chengyang?" Song Xian quickly asked: "We have never served under the command of the General. If we do not do well, I am afraid it will delay the work of the General."

"Just follow orders." Chen Gong said with a smile: "General Gao Shun will naturally understand the meaning of the general. When the time comes, you will play by ear. This is the first time you have fought under the command of the general. Take it seriously."

After finishing speaking, Chen Gong sighed and left. In fact, in this new camp, he himself was also a little confused. After all, he didn't know Gongsun Xu well enough. At this time, he must take every step well, otherwise he may very well be killed. Forever.
