Liu Ye looked at the map, then looked at Qiao Rui and said with a smile: "It is inconvenient for the general to come forward, but if sir can come forward, it can be resolved!"
"Oh?" Qiao Rui looked at Liu Ye. He noticed that Liu Xun had a different attitude towards this person. He felt that he was very dependent on him. He didn't want to neglect him at the moment. He nodded and said: "Sir, please tell me."
"The enemy is very good at fighting psychological battles. Choosing targets in the countryside instead of attacking them directly is indeed a clever move to destroy our army's popularity. At the same time, if the general cannot bear to send troops at this time, all these scattered
Soldiers and horses from all directions either took advantage of the situation to seize the city, or secretly gathered to outflank the general, making our army quite passive." Liu Ye smiled and said, "However, it is not difficult to break this situation."
"How to break it?" Qiao Rui and Liu Xun were both intrigued and looked at Liu Ye and asked.
"It's easy to say, after all, the enemy's base in Lujiang is still shallow. This village should be our army's home field. If Mr. Bonian can convince the gentry from all over the country to unite and form Xiangyong, and cooperate with the villagers from all over the country.
Unite and use the beacon as the signal. As soon as you notice the enemy's movement, you will immediately go to support. If we fight separately, our army will have a numerical advantage. If the enemy keeps attrition with our army, it will only be the other party that will be killed in the end!"
Liu Ye smiled.
Liu Xun's eyes lit up and he nodded: "This is a very good plan."
The biggest difficulty in this strategy is how to convince all the big players to participate, but the opponent is the Xuzhou Army. Even if this biggest problem is solved in advance, the positions of the two sides are inconsistent!
"I can help contact various families to help with the defense." Qiao Rui also felt that this plan was feasible, and nodded immediately: "As for whether everyone is willing to take action, I can't guarantee it."
"Just get the news." Liu Ye nodded. The aristocratic families were often the best informed, and he believed that these people would make the right choice.
After Qiao Rui agreed, he said goodbye and left. Liu Xun looked at Liu Ye and said, "Zi Yang, what should we do?"
"The general only needs to continue to strengthen the city wall at this moment to prevent enemy raids!" Liu Ye said casually. This incident will probably keep the Xuzhou Army busy for a long time.
In the next few days, the soldiers who were walking in the countryside according to Chu Nan's plan encountered obstacles. Several teams encountered resistance one after another, and they failed to kill the three elders at the first time. The surrounding wealthy families seemed to unite all of a sudden.
They got up, but if there was any sign of trouble, they would immediately attack. The Xuzhou army had experienced hundreds of battles, so they were not afraid. However, reinforcements arrived one after another, and it was difficult for them to defeat them with two fists. In the end, they had no choice but to retreat to temporarily avoid the edge.
After hearing the news, Chu Nan thought for a moment, called everyone back, and temporarily gave up advancing. It was enough to just keep the villages that had been captured.
"My lord, you said that when Cao Cao massacred the city, why was there no backlash from the people?" Shu County saw that Chu Nan continued to practice every day with the help of his popularity. During this time, he also learned a lot about the pros and cons of Confucian practice from Chu Nan. Wei Yan, who was free,
curiously.
"I use the popularity here to practice, and the awe-inspiring energy in my body will naturally be connected with the destiny of the people of this dimension. In other words, my awe-inspiring energy is promoted by the people of this area. If I do something harmful to them, the people will be resentful for a lifetime, and it will come back to me. But
If I have not used this popularity, what does it have to do with me no matter how many complaints there are?" Chu Nan smiled and said: "If there are complaints from the people, it can destroy a person's cultivation. I can destroy ninety-nine percent of the world's Confucians.
Confucian."
"That's it." Wei Yan nodded, and then made a list for Chu Nan to look at: "Please take a look, my lord."
"What?" Chu Nan asked curiously.
"According to what the lord said, I will list all the information that Liu Xun and I have at this moment, as well as the next choices, into this... form, and ask the lord to take a look!" Wei Yan spread a piece of white silk in front of Chu Nan, with it on it
Various information is listed.
Liu Xunfang: Rooted here, supported by all the big families in Lujiang, he has a person who is good at mechanism skills, and he also has a good counselor
Our side: Although we are from outside, we have already won the popularity of this place. We have both civil and military skills in our tent, and there are various monsters that can assist in the battle...
Chu Nan looked at it and felt that the information was messy and lacked some key points of support. For example, Liu Xun was supported by the big families, which big families were there, and to what extent they could support him. His own popularity was not stable at this time, and it might turn into public resentment.
, it cannot be viewed as an advantage at this time.·
The test Chen Gong left for him was to capture Lujiang. Now, half of the success has been achieved. Shu County is the seat of Lujiang County. Now it has been captured by Chu Nan. A large area of Lujiang Village has also been captured. What Chu Nan has adopted is
A step-by-step strategy was adopted, starting from the countryside, to seize the popularity of the people and weaken the defensive ability of the city.
However, as time went by, the opponent's counterattack also arrived. The big families from all over the country joined forces to build Wubao. The officers and soldiers of Lujiang did not take action. However, these big people in Lujiang spontaneously organized escorts and began to fight against the surrender. They used beacon smoke as a signal. When one side was in trouble, all parties supported it.
, it is difficult to implement the strategy of letting Chu Nan go deep into the countryside.
The three elders in the countryside now looked at them as if they were hiding from ghosts and gods. When they saw the beacon fire as a signal, they summoned the people of the big clan patrolling nearby. The two sides were now robbing people. When they met, they didn't ask who you were and just started to attack. Chu
After all, there are few people on Nan's side, and if time goes by, it won't be enough to play with the other party like this.
"Now, pick out the factors that are detrimental to our army!" Chu Nan groped his chin. He was definitely not a genius in terms of strategy. He was just a genius in practice. In terms of strategy, he felt that he still needed to pool his wisdom, so he asked Wei Yan to put these together.
List the advantages and disadvantages of both parties, and then it will be simple, just solve the shortcomings.
Wei Yan thought for a while and got the big clan to support this. Now the officers and soldiers of Lujiang have not moved. These big clans may be more powerful than Liu Xun in this matter. Liu Xun at least knows where it is, and it is not too troublesome to fight.
But these big clans are blooming in all directions, making it difficult for people to find their way around.
"Why is it disadvantageous?" Chu Nan looked at what Wei Yan had ticked and asked again.
"Why is it disadvantageous?" Wei Yan frowned and thought: "There are many people in the big clan, and they are all connected with each other. If one party is in trouble, all parties will support it!"
"How to solve it? Do you have any ideas?" Chu Nan took a sip of water and looked at Wei Yan and asked. Fighting has never been his thing.
Wei Yan's thoughts were straightened out, he looked at the map and said: "Design to gather them together and annihilate them!"
"Yes, let's do it." After thinking for a moment, Chu Nan said to Wei Yan.
"Well, I'll retire at the end!" Wei Yan nodded in agreement, turned around and went to order the troops.
"Remember, this strategy can only be used once. It won't work the second time and will be designed by others!" Chu Nan reminded him from behind.
"Don't worry, my lord!" Wei Yan agreed and went to lead the troops. This time, he was much more cautious. He first sent a few troops to camp secretly, and then held on in a battle formation to attract more private soldiers from the gentry.
Finally, Wei Yan led the main force of two thousand soldiers and horses to fight out. Although some of these nobles were proficient in the art of war and could form battle formations, most of them were still a mob and were taken away by Wei Yan in a wave. Only a few noble generals used their skills.
The battle formation blocked Wei Yan's invasion.
The oppressive atmosphere that had been suppressed for many days was instantly released. Wei Yan had no intention of giving up on these private soldiers who were proficient in the art of war. They charged back and forth, pointing east and west. The two sides formed formations and fought fiercely in the countryside. For a time, Wei Yan was brave and proficient in warfare.
In the formation, these elite private soldiers of the noble clans each have their own proficiency, and although the masters are not as good as Wei Yan, their victory lies in their numbers. Although Wei Yan was able to gain the upper hand for a while, it was difficult to win.
"General, sir, it's time for our army to retake Shu County at this time." In Wan County City, after hearing about this, Liu Ye looked at Liu Xun and Qiao Rui and said with a smile.
"Then this Wei Yan..." Qiao Rui said worriedly.
"These big families are in charge of him. However, Wei Yan is considered to be the most powerful general under Chu Nan, and there is also a veteran general. Now he is guarding Jiangdong in the Xiang'an area. Shu County may have many soldiers and horses now, but there are not many generals who are good at fighting.
, it is the moment when we are at our weakest, if we send troops to Shu County at this time, we can take that Shu County back!" Liu Ye said with a smile.
Liu Xun frowned slightly when he heard this.
"Why is Zitai frowning?" Qiao Rui looked at Liu Xun doubtfully.
"Bo Nian didn't know something. Last time, he listened to the general's advice and made a surprise attack on the Chunan Dazhai. The result was a huge defeat. All the generals in the army were killed or injured in that battle. If we send out troops now, except for me, there are no other generals available.
Even if there is no Wei Yan around Chu Nan, there are still several powerful generals who are not as good as Wei Yan, but they are still invincible to me!" Liu Xun sighed: "I asked Brother Bonian to recommend some Lujiang talents for me earlier, but he refused.
,now……"
"If I don't agree, Lujiang..." Qiao Rui said this and sighed. If there are talented people in Lujiang, it won't be your turn to occupy this place as a foreigner.
"I will go with the general for this battle." Liu Ye said with a smile: "I am also very curious, what is Chu Nan's ability?"
Liu Ye seemed to have no problem with his last sneak attack strategy, but Chu Nan saw it through in advance. He was very curious whether Chu Nan would see through it this time.
"With Ziyang's help, I feel at ease." Liu Xun spoke, but his eyes were directed at Qiao Rui.
Qiao Rui sighed and said: "Forget it, I will help the general, but you just need to give me a team of men."
Both sides used to be Yuan Shu's generals, but they were no strangers to the soldiers and horses under their respective command. Now, when they are in command, they will not be in the same embarrassing situation as when Zhou Yu commanded the Guangling Army and was unable to display the secret skills of military strategists.
"Okay, I have Bonian to help me, so I can rest easy!" Liu Xun was overjoyed when he heard this, and Qiao Rui agreed to take action. He was not the only one to take action. The Qiao family should also take action. He had long heard that the Qiao family had special agents.
It’s just that no one has ever seen a person with supernatural power, but there is for sure.
Qiao Rui nodded: "Without further delay, I will go home and prepare. Brother Zitai will prepare the troops and horses. How about I leave the city and go straight to Shu County in the afternoon?"
"Okay!" Liu Xun thought for a while and officially sent out troops in the afternoon. They should arrive in Shu County before evening. If it is true as Liu Ye said and Chu Nan is not ready, he might be able to return to Shu County tonight...
