Chapter 48: Relationship with Players
Liu Xie had been secretly watching the chat between Nanshan and the others. Now that they finally got to the point, he couldn't help but nod.
"That's right. If you don't fight for me, if I die, you won't be able to play this game anymore." Liu Xie thought to himself with a smile.
Player Liu Xie is still waiting for the plot to progress. He also feels that these officials have said enough. And now these officials are obviously frightened by Zhong Yao.
In this case, Liu Xie felt that he should tell them his plan, lest the officials would be disappointed with the Han Dynasty's broken ship.
So, Liu Xie coughed lightly, then looked at Zhong Yao and said, "Yuan Chang is right, but I already have a plan."
"What?" When Baiguan heard Liu Xie say that he had a solution, he looked at Liu Xie in surprise.
When did the emperor have such intelligence?
"My dear friends, I have appointed Cao Mengde as General of the Southern Conquest and Zhang Xiu as General of Annan." Liu Xie said calmly.
Yang Feng, Zhang Yang and others were immediately stunned when they heard Liu Xie's words.
What kind of situation, why are they given official posts for no reason? Didn’t you just say that these two people are not well-intentioned?
Yang Feng and Zhang Yang's IQs are there. They really need some time to digest this kind of twists and turns.
After Zhong Yao heard Liu Xie's words, he just thought for a moment and immediately understood what Liu Xie wanted to do.
Then, Zhong Yao showed a smile on his face and said to Liu Xie: "Your Majesty, this is a very good move!"
"It seems that Yuan Chang is already aware of my plan." Liu Xie looked at Zhong Yao with satisfaction. He is indeed a talent who can guard one side, and he can understand what he means so quickly.
"Now that there are few soldiers in the imperial court, we can only let them fight first, so that we can have a chance."
"What your Majesty said is true. It's just that your Majesty wants to go to Yingchuan to get a share of the pie. I feel that there is an issue that needs to be resolved first." Zhong Yao said, clasping his fists at Liu Xie.
"Oh? Today's court meeting is for my great man, dear friends, you can speak freely." Liu Xie said encouragingly to Zhong Yao.
Zhong Yao did not disappoint Liu Xie. He slowly walked up to the Kanyu map, pointed at his feet, and then said to Liu Xie: "Your Majesty, please take a look."
"Your Majesty wants Cao Cao to attack Zhang Xiu, so I guess that your Majesty wants to use the trick of swallowing up the tiger and swallowing the wolf to annex Zhang Xiu's power."
"Zhangxiu is located in Wancheng. If we can capture Wancheng, then my great Han Dynasty can march south to Jingxiang, and the current governor of Jingzhou is your Majesty's uncle Liu Biao."
"We are bordering Jingzhou. Even if Liu Biao is not willing to come, he will not object openly. In this way, the siege network of various princes against my Han Dynasty can be announced to be disbanded."
"At the same time, we occupied Wancheng and cut off Cao Cao's route to the west, forcing him to fight with the princes of Guandong. Xiliang will become my big man's back garden. It only requires very little power.
We can recover Yongliang and Liang."
"So, the key point of this plan is whether we can capture Wancheng before Cao Cao conquers Wancheng."
"If you want to go to Wancheng, there are only two ways. One is to pass through Hulao, go to Xuchang, and then turn southwest to Wancheng."
"The other way is to take Hongnong and then go south to Wuguan."
"Go to Hongnong and Wuguan? But now Hongnong is still in the hands of the Xiliang army." Zhang Yang said with a strange look on his face when he heard Zhong Yao's words.
When Boss Dong fled westward, Hongnong County was abandoned by Boss Dong. After all, at that time, the Kwantung princes had already breached Hulao Pass.
Facing the menacing Kwantung princes, Dong Lao thought that he could not defend Hongnong, so he withdrew the Xiliang army to Tongguan.
But a few days ago, when Liu Xie returned to Luoyang with his officials, Li Jue and Guo Si led the Xiliang army to reoccupy Hongnong.
Therefore, Hongnong County is now under the control of the Xiliang Army again.
If you want to go to Wancheng, you have to either go to Xuchang or Hongnong.
Boss Cao now has a big family and a big business. Even if Liu Xie has the help of players, he may not be able to conquer Xuchang. After all, the players are still very weak now.
But it is much easier to defeat Hongnong. A group of Xiliang remnants will never be able to stop the players' attack.
"Uncle Zhi is right. Hongnong is indeed still in the hands of the Xiliang Army, but we won't be able to tell for sure after that." Liu Xie said with a faint smile.
Hearing Liu Xie say this, if the officials present still don't understand what it means, they are not worthy of standing here.
"Your Majesty, I am willing to lead the Hedong army to capture Hongnong for your Majesty." Zhang Yang stepped forward and said to Liu Xie.
"Your Majesty, I am also willing to go! Our new army has been training for a long time, and it is time for them to attack Hongnong and let them see blood." Yang Feng also stepped forward and said.
"I understand what your two dear friends mean, but I have already planned the Hongnong matter. My dear dears, you don't need to say more." Liu Xie shook his head with a smile.
To be honest, Liu Xie doesn't want Zhang Yang and Yang Feng to attack Hongnong right now.
The reason is very simple. To put it bluntly, these two people still belong to the princes, but they have more respect for the imperial court in their hearts. But the problem is that while they are loyal, they are also very ambitious.
Liu Xie didn't want them to expand their influence too much until they reached the level of die-hard loyalty.
After all, he didn't want to train a few powerful officials himself.
Moreover, if the soldiers of the Three Kingdoms were to attack Hongnong, people would die, and it was not like I had no other choice. Why did I have to take human lives to fill Hongnong's hole?
How good would it be to let players play directly?
When players attack Hongnong, they can become stronger and they can also get points. Then they can get points to make the players stronger.
This is a virtuous cycle. If you don't grasp it well, you would be a fool.
Liu Xie has already planned that the soldiers from the Three Kingdoms period will be used to defend the city, and the players will be the main force for his external expansion.
Zhang Yang and Yang Feng heard Liu Xie's words and thought that Liu Xie felt sorry for the soldiers in their hands.
Originally, they wanted to capture Hongnong, but it was just a rhetorical statement by the two of them, which was fine. If they really wanted to attack, they would still hesitate.
But when these words fell in the ears of Nanshan, Li Jichen and others, they had another meaning.
"Did you hear that, brothers! The mission is coming!"
"Wow! It's my first time to expand externally. I'm so nervous!"
"You are so nervous! If you are nervous, don't go. Our Nanshan Academy Legion is willing to share the burden for you."
"Turn over, baby cow! Can I use you to do such a good thing?"
When Nanshan and the others heard Liu Xie's words, they immediately understood that this was the plot arrangement of the game. They also guessed what the follow-up tasks would be, and they all rubbed their hands in excitement.
"Okay, dear friends, please step back first. Since we have decided to use troops against Hongnong, we still need to make good early preparations."
"Uncle Guo, you will be responsible for this matter, and Uncle Zhi and Kang Xi will coordinate from there." Liu Xie wanted to send these officials away quickly so that he could build relationships with the players and share tasks.
After all, Liu Xie's trump card is the players. If he doesn't build a good relationship with the players, wouldn't it be in vain?
