The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms - Vol 10 Chapter 308

When Xun Zhen launched an attack on Nanyang, Gao Shun strongly advised Lu Bu to help Yuan Shu.
But Lü Bu refused to obey, he said: “The Situ Zhao Gong in the court has promised me the former general, and a few days ago, Xi Zhicai also had a book, and his words were very respectful. Who is Zhicai? The one who believes in and loves chariots! Although it is not a letter written by the chariot and cavalry, there is no difference. The imperial court respects the edict of my former general, and the day is just around the corner. At this moment, how can I help Yuan Shu? You have also seen it, ten counts, really no one’s ministers! I can’t help but get angry after reading it. How can I help such a traitor!”
Seeing Lu Bu being so obsessed, Gao Shun really didn’t know what to say, but out of loyalty to Lu Bu, he still tried to persuade him, saying: “Ming Gong! Until now, there is no decree? Whether it is Zhao Wen or Xi Zhong, their letters, if you look at them at the end of the day, they are actually deceiving Ming Gong! How can Ming Gong believe this?”
Lu Bu was unhappy, and said: “Zhao Gongde is very serious in the sea, and when he was in the court, I was also very respectful to him, how could he lie to me!”
“Ming Gong! Gong and Sun Ce have a revenge for killing their father. If this revenge is not repaid, how can Sun Ce stand on his own in the world? Please think about it, if the Duke is Sun Ce, the guild will not avenge this revenge? Therefore, Sun Ce is sure of this revenge. It is to be avenged! And since this revenge Sun Ce needs to be avenged, it should be considered as a close relationship with the charioteer, and I will dare to ask Duke Ming, is it Sun Jian, Sun Ce and the charioteer, or the Duke of Ming and the charioteer?”
Lu Bu stroked his beard and said, “Well, I met Che Qi very late, and I had no chance before, so Sun Jian and Che Qi had known each other before me, so if we look at the distance at the moment, I’m definitely not as good as Sun Jian and Sun Ce. But Zixiang, Sun Jian is dead, Sun Ce is a son, and Xi Zhicai’s book is very much in line with what I want. Now that the country is in turmoil, when I am using people, I will use my bravery to make me Riders, chariots, and cavalry will step forward, who can be the enemy in the world? How can Sun Ce be able to match me? I don’t hear ‘Lv Bu among people, red rabbits among horses’! !” Glancing at Gao Shun’s eyes, he said, “Or, Zixiang, do you think I’m not as good as the dead Sun Jian?”
“Ming Gong! The last general asserts that if the public does not save the Zuo general now, after Nanyang is captured, the chariots and cavalry will surely come to attack Pingchun!”
How could Lu Bu believe what Gao Shun said? Although he knew that Gao Shun was loyal, he was not satisfied with Gao Shun’s too upright attitude. Getting ready to stand up, he said perfunctorily to Gao Shun’s assertion, “Zixiang, Che Qi and Liu Jingsheng have two troops and horses, an army of 40,000 to 50,000 people, attacking from the north and south, Nanyang is the result of the chariots and horses, sooner or later! Our troops are only a few thousand. Even if I listen to your words, how can I save Yuan Gonggong?”
Gao Shun said, “General, I have a plan to save General Zuo!”
Lu Bu stood up and was about to leave. He asked casually, “What can you do?”
“Duke Ming, now not only did the chariots lead the main force to Nanyang, but Sun Ce also led his main force into Nanyang. The defense in Runan is relatively empty. If our army attacked Runan at this time, at least Sun Ce’s troops can be sent to the army. If Nanyang is transferred back, then the pressure on General Zuo will be relieved; and if our army is advancing so rapidly that it can even threaten Yingchuan County, then I am afraid that the chariots and cavalry will have to bring troops back to help him. The troubles can naturally be solved by this.”
Lu Bu was taken aback and said: “Zixiang, you are not saving Yuan Shu, you are trying to set me on fire!” He waved his hands again and again, “You can’t use this strategy, you can’t use it!”
Gao Shun still wanted a hard admonition, Lu
Bu has left the hall.
Gao Shun couldn’t, so he had to follow him out of the hall. After sending Lu Bu away, he also went home.
When he got home, he fidgeted and sighed.
His servant stood by his side and asked him, “Dare to ask my father, why are you sighing?”
Gao Shun sighed: “What I sighed, Yuan Gonggong was about to die, and the general didn’t follow my words, my wife will follow!”
His obedient son agreed with Gao Shun’s judgment, and he looked at the interior and exterior, and there were no outsiders, so he took courage and said, “Since my father has seen this far, and he has been admonishing the general, and the general will not listen to my father’s advice, then it is not the case. In my humble opinion, why didn’t Father find a way out earlier?”
Gao Shun was furious and scolded: “What does it mean to find a way out early! You don’t have to talk about this kind of thing! General I am very kind, and I should repay it with loyalty and righteousness. “If you don’t follow my words, I will fight with a seven-footed sword to protect the general! Don’t you hear Taishi Gong’s words? Human beings are inherently dead, or they are heavier than Mount Tai, or lighter than a feather. A man should die like a Mount Tai, not a feather. .”
His son did not dare to speak.
But Lü Bu rejected Gao Shun’s suggestion to help Yuan Shu, and two days later, he summoned the generals and said to them, “Now that the army has been reported, the chariots and cavalry have already approached Bowang, and Liu Hu and Kuaiyue will attack Chaoyang. I thought about it, and when the time came, I couldn’t sit still and watch.”
Only then did Gao Shun speak to persuade him to rescue him, but he refused to rescue him, but when he said this, Gao Shun’s heart moved, and an unbelievable thought came to his mind. Could it be that Lu Bu figured it out himself? Gao Shun was full of anticipation, waiting nervously for Lu Bu to speak.
Lu Bu went on to say, “I thought we had to fight Nanyang!”
The generals did not understand Lu Bu’s meaning, so one of them asked Gao Shun’s doubts and said, “Ming Gong, sent troops to Nanyang? Dare to ask Ming Gong, are you going to help the Zuo general?”
Lu Bu was stunned, and immediately laughed, saying: “Yuan Gonggong is about to be destroyed, how can we go to help him! I mean, we have to seize the great opportunity of Yuan Gonggong’s death, and make some military exploits for the chariots and horses to see. !”
“The general wants to…”
Lu Bu knelt on the seat, put his hand on his belly, looked forward to the generals, and said hesitantly, “Let’s help the chariot and ride with one hand, and conquer Wan County!”
Gao Shun was shocked and said: “Ming Gong, this is absolutely impossible!”
“Why not?”
“Ming Gong, if you want to go to Bowang and Wanxian, you must first pass through Biyang and Wuyin. Now that these two cities have already been captured by Sun Ce, if our army rushes over them, will Duke Ming not think about Sun Ce’s ambush?”
“As long as the chariot allows me to help, how dare Sun Ce disobey the chariot’s order?”
Gao Shun went down to worship and said, “Ming Gong!”
“Zixiang, don’t say it anymore! I’ve made up my mind, today I’ll ride the car and ask Ying!”
…
The letter written by Lü Bu was the letter that Xun Zhen received in the tent that day.
After reading it, Xun Zhen was just as surprised as Gao Shun, but the reason for their surprise was different, Xiao and Guo Jia, Yuan Sui, Xuan Kang and others said, “Lu Bu actually asked me that he knew Wan County well. I want to lead troops to help me attack Bawan County.”
Guo Jia laughed and said, “How could Lu Bu have this invitation? What an idiot!” After thinking about it, he said, “Ming Gong, he already has this invitation, why not allow it?”
“Oh?”
Guo Jia said: “The destruction of Yuan Gonggong is inevitable. After Yuan Gonggong is wiped out, the next one will be Lv Bu, and he is willing to leave Pingchun now. Isn’t this a good opportunity to wipe him and Yuan Gonggong together in one fell swoop?”
“Fengxiao, do you want Bofu to annihilate Lu Bu first?”
Guo Jia said: “From Pingchun to Bowang and Wanxian, you need to go through Biyang and Wuyin. Biyang and Wuyin have been conquered by the General Wei’s department. Then Jia’s stupid opinion, why not order the General Wei to set up Biyang and Wuyin. Dance in the underworld, waiting for Lu Bu’s troops to arrive, annihilate them?”
Xun Zhen pondered for a long time, stroked her short moustache with her hand, shook her head, and said, “Fengxiao, you can’t do this.”
“Is Duke Ming worried that he will not be able to annihilate Lu Bu’s troops?”
Xun Zhen nodded and said, “Lü Bu is brave, and all the generals under Gao Shun’s command are fierce generals. Although his troops and horses are far less than Yuan Shu’s, his ability in field battles is far from comparable to Yuan Shu’s trilogy. It is not easy to wipe them all out, and once the battle is unfavorable, it will affect the final attack on this battle. … Liu Hu and Kuaiyue have already surrounded Xinye. If Guo Si sends troops at this time, Dong will join forces with Liu Hu and Kuai. If we go further and join forces, not only will Xinye be subdued by Liu Hu and Kuaiyue, but even though Zang Ba’s army has been pacified, I’m afraid that it will be difficult to stop them from coming north to Wan, then Wan County may not be able to be won by our army alone. Compared with the annihilation of Lu Bu, the gain or loss of Wanxian County is more important. Therefore, this strategy is not advisable.”
Yuan Shu’s troops were not as good in field combat as those under Xun Zhen, so Xun Zhen tried every means possible to transfer his troops and horses to win the field battle; and all the generals under Lv Bu were brave and good at fighting, and were quite capable of horses. , not to mention the number one in the world, UU reading www.uukanshu.com is also among the best, only using Sun Ce’s troops to do the ambush, even if they occupy the geographical advantage, it is really as Xun Zhen said, victory or defeat is also a matter of choice, perhaps still He will lose, and once he loses, it will inevitably affect the battle of Bawan in the battle of Nanyang, so Guo Jia’s strategy is indeed unusable.
– If Xun Zhen was just starting his army, how could he refuse the strategies of such strategists as Guo Jia? Now it is not the same as when he first launched the army. He has gone through hundreds of battles now, especially at the strategic level. Guo Jia and other advisers.
Guo Jia agreed with Xun Zhen’s judgment and opinion.
Since there is no certainty that Lu Bu will be completely wiped out, and Sun Ce is in the army, in order to prevent him from fighting between the two sides, his request to lead his troops to help is of course not allowed. Xun Zhen then asked the chief clerk Chen Yi to return the letter to Lv Bu on his behalf and comforted him, but he did not allow him to help.
…
Wan County.
Zhang Xun rushed to help Bowang, but instead surrendered to Xun Zhen, Bowang fell, and the news that Yang Hong, Ji Ling, Le Jiu were captured or died in battle, etc., has already spread to the city, Li Ye, Liu Xun and others did their best to They were all horrified, so they all came to see Yuan Shu.
After waiting for a long time again, Yuan Shu arrived in the hall.
Compared with the last time, Yuan Shu’s complexion became darker and darker, his hair and beard were still undyed, and it seemed to be much grayer than last time.
Hui Qu was the one who spoke first.
Huiqu said: “Ming Gong, Zhang Xun’s unrighteous scoundrel, sent down the Xun thief, so that Bowang was able to gain a stronghold for the Xun thief! Seeing that the main force of the Xun thief and the Sun thief is approaching, people inside and outside Wanxian are now panicked, the army’s heart is unsettled, and the people’s heart is unsettled. Unrest/chaotic, how to deal with it, dare to ask Ming Gong to give an order as soon as possible!”
Yuan Shu found one person in the crowd, glared angrily, and ordered, “Come out!”
