Invincible special police swept the three kingdoms

Chapter 180 Yuan Shu's thoughts (2)

"As for the second strategy, the subordinates are naturally considering the master." Yan Xiang stroked his beard and said.

"For me?" Yuan Shu asked strangely.

"Could it be that my lord wants to be a food and grass officer in the rear all the time in this campaign against the Dong alliance? Unknown?" Yan Xiang asked Yuan Shu.

"Of course not. I also want to kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds, but that Yuan Shao gave me a food and grass officer, but he didn't let me stand out." Yuan Shu said helplessly.

"That's why, my lord, the second method is for us to surround Zhao Lei and Sun Jian overnight and attack Sishui Pass." Yan Xiang said.

"Sneak attack on Sishuiguan?" Yuan Shu's voice trembled when he spoke, appearing very nervous.

When it came to fighting, Yuan Shu seemed a little timid.

"Uh! My lord! If we don't take the initiative to attack, we will stay in the rear of the allied forces forever in obscurity." Yan Xiang said worriedly. Forgotten, he frowned and walked back and forth.You know, the sneak attack on Sishuiguan is not a matter of sending troops as soon as it is said,
At this time, Yang Hong, the general next to Yan Xiang, also stepped forward and said: "My subordinates think that what Lord Yan said is very true! Besides, Dong Zhuo is now singing and dancing in Luoyang City, arrogant and domineering. He simply ignores us and other princes of the Kanto region! Maybe This time, Dong Zhuo didn't pay much attention to this small Sishui pass, and just sent a few young generals to guard it, so wouldn't it be possible for Zhao Lei to easily conquer the pass and take the credit for himself?"

"Yeah!" At last, Yang Hong's words were not a compliment to Zhao Lei's strength, but it sounded pleasant to Yuan Shu's ears. Dang even stood still and said excitedly, "With Dong Zhuo's temperament, this is very possible. But now that Yuan Benchu ​​has appointed Zhao Lei and Sun Jian as vanguards, it’s a foregone conclusion, so what can I do? Besides, I left the grain and grass camp to send troops without permission, and if Yuan Shaowan blames it, what should I do?”

Yuan Shu at least listened to it, and both Yan Xiang and Yang Hong secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Regarding Yuan Shu's question, Yan Xiang lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head and said, "As long as my lord defeats Dong Zhuo's soldiers and horses and seizes the Boshui Guan, even if Yuan Taishou is the leader of the alliance, he can't do anything to the lord!"

Yan Xiang's plan made Yuan Shu's eyes light up. Before that, he was still complaining that Yuan Shao had arranged him to be a food and grass officer, so he couldn't make any contribution.What Yan Xiang said really moved Yuan Shu's heart. If he could really break through the Sishui Pass, he would not only steal Zhao Lei's limelight, but also make the first great contribution to challenge Dong, which would be of great benefit to Yuan Shu's reputation. !More importantly, this can prove that Yuan Shao's decision to let him guard the grain and grass was wrong, which is equivalent to slapping Yuan Shao severely.

Just when Yuan Shu was about to nod his head in agreement, his face suddenly changed, but he immediately shook his head and said, "No! No! If I go to attack Sishui Pass first, if Dong Zhuo really underestimates the enemy and doesn't send a general to guard Sishui Pass But if Dong Zhuo sent an elite army to guard, then wouldn’t I not be able to take the city and violate the military order.” Despite Yuan Shu’s arrogant and domineering appearance all day long, he was actually timid in his heart. Obviously, there are many benefits to going to the Sishui Pass first, but the risks are also too great.Yuan Shu didn't have the guts to take risks with himself, and he also knew the strength of his troops, even Zhao Lei's army couldn't beat Zhao Lei's army in field battles, let alone Sishui Pass, which was easy to defend but difficult to attack.

As Yuan Shu's number one military adviser, Yan Xiang certainly knew his master's personality.He sighed helplessly in his heart, but he couldn't show such emotion on his face.

At this moment, Yang Hong suddenly said: "My lord! This matter is not difficult to solve! My lord doesn't have to go to Sishui Pass in person, just send a general with more than a thousand people to go to Sishui Pass first! If Dong Zhuo underestimates the enemy , these more than a thousand people will be able to break through the pass, and the prestige will be owned by the lord! If Dong Zhuo sent heavy troops to guard the Sishui pass, it would only lose one general and more than a thousand soldiers, and it would not affect the lord's strength too much. At the same time as the big loss, Yuan Shao can't blame the lord for leaving his post without authorization."

As soon as Yang Hong came up with this plan, Yuan Shu immediately nodded happily, but Yan Xiang beside him looked at Yang Hong with a serious face.To be honest, this plan can be regarded as a good one, but it is too vicious.If Yuan Shu led the army to go, even if Dong Zhuo deployed a heavy army, it would not be difficult for Yuan Shu to retreat with so many troops in his hands.However, according to Yang Hong's plan, one general plus more than a thousand soldiers, if they encounter Dong Zhuo's army, they may never return!Although he knew the pros and cons of this plan, Yan Xiang didn't dare to say it, because he saw Yuan Shu's smug face, so he didn't want to say anything more.So as not to annoy Yuan Shu and make yourself boring.

Besides, if Yan Xiang remembers correctly, last time a young general named Lin Chun, a member of Yuan Shu's account, offended him, I'm afraid Yang Hong's plan at this moment is to kill someone with a knife!Sure enough, Yuan Shu nodded in agreement with Yang Hong's strategy. Just as he was about to order his general Yu She to go there, Yang Hong immediately took the first step and said, "My lord! If you send troops to Sishui Pass, you don't need to send our generals there." Take a risk. You only need to send an insignificant young general! If my subordinates remember correctly, I remember that General Chen Lan’s subordinates have a school lieutenant named Lin Chun.

After hearing Yang Hong's remonstrance, Yuan Shu quickly nodded and said, "Yes! Good! I will follow your idea! Chen Lan! Do you have such a young general in your account?"

Even if Chen Lan came out, he cupped his fists and shouted to Yuan Shu: "My lord! There is indeed such a person in the last general's account!" After finishing speaking, Chen Lan secretly glanced at Yang Hong with helpless eyes. Ji Ling was reused by Yuan Shu after his death, so he couldn't be blamed.Moreover, Chen Lan is naturally a smart person, and he also understands the conflict between Yang Hong and Yu She before, so of course he understands Yang Hong's vicious intentions.It's just that Yang Hong's idea can't be said to be wrong, maybe he can really win Sishuiguan.In addition, Chen Lan was tactful and couldn't afford to offend his colleagues for an insignificant captain under him, so he didn't expose Yang Hong on the spot.

"Okay! If that's the case, let's do everything according to General Yang's wishes! You go and inform Colonel Lin Chun to make preparations and set off tonight! You must rush to pass Sishui before Zhao Lei. I'll take it! If I win it, I'll give you a lot of rewards!" For Yuan Shu, he didn't have to work hard by himself, and he could get benefits. Yuan Shu was naturally very happy, but he felt sorry for the young general named Lin Chun. Maybe that's all. It fell into Yang Hong's hands.

"Wait a minute!" Yan Xiang frowned, and suddenly shouted, stopping Chen Lan who was about to carry out Yuan Shu's order.And Yang Hong, who was beside Yan Xiang, also frowned and stared at Yan Xiang closely. He didn't have any doubts. Could it be that Yan Xiang was going to spoil his good deed?Yan Xiang turned a blind eye to Yang Hong's glaring glaring, as long as Yang Hong was not out of line, he didn't have the heart to care how Yang Hong made a fuss and who he sought revenge from!But having said that, these 1000 people are really too small, and it is impossible to test the strength of Dong Jun in Sishuiguan, but if Yuan Shu is to send more people, I am afraid Yuan Shu will not be willing. He cupped his hands and said, "My lord, I'm afraid these 1000 troops still won't be able to test out how many defenders there are at Sishuiguan. We need to send more troops!"

Sure enough, when Yan Xiang said this, Yuan Shu immediately showed a reluctant expression, and Yang Hong also hurriedly said: "Although what Mr. Yan said is reasonable, if we send more troops, I am afraid that the loss of our army will be reduced by then." It's bigger, it's not good for the future development of the lord!" Yang Hongjin proposed this plan to harm Lin Chun, not to complete Lin Chun's achievements!After finishing speaking, Yang Hong looked closely at Yan Xiang again, wanting to let Yan Xiang know what he was interested in, but he didn't want Yan Xiang to confront him again.

Yan Xiang was not afraid of Yang Hong, but he didn't want to fall out with Yang Hong because of a young general, so he gave Yang Hong a reassuring look, and then said to Yuan Shu, "My lord, you don't need to send any more people, but you can ask the other princes for help." My lord! My lord is the heir of the Yuan family! The four generations and three lords of the Yuan family, the family officials spread all over the world, and among the princes from all walks of life, there are many former officials of the Yuan family. As long as the lord speaks up, ask them for 2000 people They will not refuse! Moreover, this Zhao Lei is not well-known, but he is sitting in Yangzhou. Doesn’t the princes of all walks of life have people who hate him? My lord just needs to provoke him again, and I guarantee that someone will take the lead!"

Hearing what Yan Xiang said, Yang Hong felt relieved. Just asking other people to borrow 2000 people would not hinder Yang Hong's plan. Besides, even if he successfully captured Sishui Pass, there would be more One person will divide Lin Chun's credit.So Yang Hong also quickly opened his mouth to agree with Yan Xiang's strategy. Seeing that the two major counselors under his tent agreed, Yuan Shu also nodded in agreement. He nodded and said: "I have thought of a candidate, the governor of Yanzhou, Liu Dai, was my father's student back then! And he has a lot of Yanzhou soldiers under him, so I can find him!"

After the decision was made, Yuan Shu's generals also followed the plan.

Under Yuan Shu's persuasion, Liu Dai was willing to take out soldiers and horses to help Yuan Shu attack Sishui Pass.

But there are also those who refuse, such as Bao Xin.Bao Xin rejected Yuan Shu straight away, the reason is very simple.Because Bao Xin and Cao Cao are good friends, and Cao Cao and Zhao Lei are very close.If he took the credit ahead of Zhao Lei, wouldn't that make things difficult for Cao Cao?

"What? You actually asked to be a pioneer?" Zhang Han looked at Zhao Lei in surprise, unable to believe it.
