Wang Yu was not very interested in kicking other people's legs. He was very self-aware and knew that although his character was not upright, it did lack some twists and turns.
He previously led Bai Bo's eastward retreat, which can be said to have hindered Cao Cao's westward advance plan to a great extent. If Bai Bo had not lost control, Li Jue and Guo Si would not have been able to withdraw from Hedong so quickly, causing Cao Cao's army
A huge constraint.
In fact, it was precisely because of Li and Guo's restraint that Cao Cao had no choice but to order Xiahou Yuan to take risks to lure the enemy and try to open a gap from the Wuguan front. As a result, Li Ru took advantage of him and severely damaged his vitality. It can be said that,
This can be regarded as the result of Wang Yu's hindrance.
But Guo Jia adjusted quickly. On the one hand, he changed his deployment, got in touch with the rebel leaders in Xiliang, and then formed an alliance, formulating a strategy to attack Chang'an. On the other hand, he deployed in the Central Plains, united the heroes, and laid out a plan.
The big chess game in which the three families were divided quickly eliminated the impact of Xia Houyuan's tragic defeat.
In view of this, Wang Yu naturally has no interest in repeating this process again.
You must know that there is a price to pay for slapping others. Baibo was originally within his own sphere of influence. He spent a lot of time guiding and supporting their eastward retreat, which cost a lot of manpower and material resources. Not to mention, he also lost the enemy in Hedong.
nail.
If not for the consideration of giving up Hedong's restraint on Cao Cao, Wang Yu would have preferred to try to reinforce the Baibo Army and let them try to hold on until the Hussars launched a large-scale westward expedition. With the support of the Baibo Army, Hedong still refused.
Can it be obtained by hand?
Therefore, although Wang Yu's previous action of holding people back was fruitful, the price paid was not small, causing him to lose interest in it. Think about it carefully, if he persists in holding people back to the end, he might gain momentum.
The fierce Sun Ce.
Just as Guo Jia's concept of dividing the thorns is reflected, tricks and so on are side effects, and strengthening oneself is the foundation. On this point, he and Zhuge Liang also coincide with each other.
The only thing that surprised him was Zhuge Liang's strong persistence.
In Wang Yu's impression, Zhuge Liang was not a very steady and modest person. It was rare to see him be so persistent about anything, and he even used the most famous phrase in history: "I will do my best".
Not to mention that Zhuge Liang's proposal was already within Wang Yu's heart. Even if it wasn't, he would have to think carefully about it. Otherwise, looking at the situation, maybe the youth version of the apprenticeship list will be released.
Of course, Wang Yu would not just leave all the complicated affairs to Zhuge Liang. He did not want to abuse child labor, and he did not want Zhuge Liang to become the workaholic in history early. At the same time, he was also a little worried, worried that the young man's courage was commendable, but
It may not be possible to take care of so many things.
Therefore, he compiled a letter and rushed it 800 miles to Lunu City to ask Tian Feng for advice.
It was not that he had never thought that it might be safer to transfer the more experienced Tian Feng to Youzhou to take charge. However, he had to take care of Zhuge Liang's mood. More importantly, with the formal change of banner of the Youzhou Army, Bohai,
The major counties of Anping and Hejian have also been included in the jurisdiction of Qingzhou. When everything is waiting for improvement, it will not work if there is no one to take charge of the overall situation.
If Youzhou still has some development potential, the three counties of Bohai are originally the major counties of Jizhou. Although they have suffered from repeated wars and the population has dropped sharply, their overall level is much better than that of Youzhou. There is no need to invest too many resources, as long as Qingzhou is
If the government's decrees are copied from the past, within two years, the old views will be restored and Qingzhou will be provided with enough resources to compete for hegemony.
For such an important matter, besides letting Tian Feng take charge personally, Wang Yu really couldn't find another person to choose.
On the one hand, he contacted Tian Feng, and on the other hand, Wang Yu also wrote several long letters back to Gaotang.
One letter was written to Jia Xu. It was mainly to discuss and deduce the changes in the situation, then discuss some contingency measures, and finally think of some small but beneficial means to create trouble for Cao Cao.
Wang Yu himself didn't have much idea, he just thought that he could give Liu Biao a warning and take some precautions in advance.
Although under attack from three sides, Liu Biao would not be spared no matter what, but the length of time he persisted and the intensity of the war would play a crucial role in the gains of the Sun and Cao families.
As for Yuan Shu, although he also joined in and worked hard, the reality was that no matter how hard he worked, he would never be able to steal the big deal from Sun and Cao. He was just following the booing.
To this end, Wang Yu wrote another letter to Pang Tong, allowing the latter to use senior internal agents in the Huainan Army to try to figure out why Yuan Shu was so motivated, and if possible, invest resources to destroy it.
Militarily, the Huainan Army could not play a substantial role, but a three-sided siege and a two-sided attack gave people completely different feelings. Considering the particularity of Jingzhou's power structure, Wang Yu believed that if he could persuade Yuan Shu, he should be able to
Alleviating the crisis in Jingzhou to a certain extent.
Considering that the scheming Liu Yan is now in charge of Yizhou, rather than his cowardly and incompetent son, Wang Yu believes that if he is more optimistic, his reminder may be able to promote a Jingshu alliance. After all, these two are relatives.
, the relationship between lips and teeth is also obvious, Liu Yan has no reason to watch Liu Biao's destruction.
If Yuan Shu can be persuaded to retreat again, it will be two against two. With Liu Biao's tenacity in resisting Sun Jian, he can last for more than a year and a half, right?
Out of the same consideration, Wang Yu also wrote a special letter to Xu Shu to discuss the strategy of Bingzhou. For a long time, Bingzhou has been the place where the Qingzhou Army conducted actual combat training. Yuan Tan and other high-ranking officials just gritted their teeth and held on, and they have long since disappeared.
The idea of counterattacking Jizhou.
Apart from Yuan and Gao, the largest force in Bingzhou was the Xiongnu. The latter was frightened and wounded by Wang Yu and Xu Shu in two battles, so it was no longer a cause for concern.
If there is no interference from other factors, when Wang Yu takes action, as long as Xu Shu leads an elite brigade to march westward, there will be no difficulty in conquering Bingzhou. It will definitely be an invincible and unstoppable momentum.
But now it seems that Bingzhou is likely to face another threat - Ma Teng, Han Sui's Xiliang rebels.
Wang Yu was not familiar with Ma Teng and Han Sui. He was only familiar with Ma Chao, Pang De and Ma Dai.
The book says that Ma Teng was a loyal member of the Han Dynasty after General Fu Bo and Ma Yuan. But as far as Wang Yu knows, unless Ma Teng is also in Cao's camp and his heart is with the Han, he is purely a rebel.
That's all.
He successively followed the Qiang people Beigong Boyu, Bian Zhang, Han Sui, and several rebels in the kingdom to fight against the Han army. He had nothing to do with the Han army. The Xiliang prefect in the novel was purely made up, Ma
Teng has never served, and there is no such official position in the establishment of the Han court. Xiliang is Liangzhou, and the chief official can only be the governor or the state shepherd, the prefect Yunyun, this is purely a novelist's opinion.
As far as Wang Yu knew, Ma Teng had no official official position at all before the army was launched.
The title of General of the Conquest of the West had just been obtained not long ago, and it was only after he hooked up with Cao Cao. Cao Cao's performance did not count at all. After he raised the army, Dong Zhuo realized that something was not going well, and took a soft approach.
Since the two parties had not reached an agreement on the seal given to him, and there was a battle, and Ma Teng lost, the seal would naturally not count.
Although I don’t know whether Dong Zhuo will give Ma Teng and Han Sui larger official positions after Ma Teng’s second rise of troops, but no matter how big the official positions are, it will not change the reckless nature of these two heroes who committed murder, arson, and recruitment.
.
Bingzhou is considered quite barren among the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty, but for Ma, Han and their Qiang allies, any place in the Central Plains must be stronger than Xiliang, and they must be full of energy when advancing eastward.
Yuan Tan and Gao Gan couldn't even defeat Xu Shu's partial division composed of militiamen and teaching teams, let alone the aggressive Xiliang rebels. At this time, if Xu Shu continued to harass, he would actually be doing the enemy a favor, causing
No, it is not known that Yuan Tan will give up his noble status and switch to Ma Teng.
Wang Yu told Xu Shu that under the current situation, it was best not to push Bingzhou too hard. If possible, it would be in Qingzhou's best interests to find a way to let Yuan, Gao, and Ma and Han compete.
It was not that he was afraid that after the Xiliang rebels captured Bingzhou, they would cross the Taihang Mountains to attack Jizhou. Wang Yu just didn't want Ma Teng to gain a foothold in Bingzhou too easily and cause too much trouble for the future Western Expedition.
Of course this is difficult, but Xu Shu is the one who carries out the order, and Wang Yu has nothing to worry about. With Xu Yuanzhi's eyesight, even without his own instructions, wouldn't he be able to see that when the main force is roaming around Youzhou, it is better to drive away wolves and devour tigers?
The best strategy?
The next letter was sent to Lu Bu.
Since Cao Cao was able to win over Yuan Shu, his intention was obviously to attack from the wings of the Qingzhou Army. Wang Yu was not worried that Lu Bu would be won over by Cao Cao, but he had to be careful, as Cao Cao would attack Lu Bu.
The strategic location of Dongjun is inherently important. When the main army gathers, Cao Cao's defense of Dongjun will only become vulnerable to enemies everywhere, which is a fool's errand. But at this moment when Qingzhou is empty, if Cao Cao takes Dongjun
, the hinterland of Qingzhou will be under comprehensive threat, especially Gaotang, the seat of government.
Even if there is no threat from Gaotang, if Cao Cao has Dongjun in hand, he can take advantage of the situation to capture the empty Jibei Kingdom, and then guard the dangerous points to block the Qingzhou Army's westward advance along the river. At that time, Wang Yu wants to conquer the Central Plains
, we can only fight the Battle of Guandu with Cao Cao - only there are the most convenient transportation conditions for marching, and we can launch a large army.
It's not that Wang Yu was afraid of Cao Cao, he just knew very well that with Cao Cao's military tactics, if he had no worries about his rear and had allies on both sides to support him, and with the natural danger of the Yellow River, there wouldn't be too many tricks he could do.
Maybe, this battle will really become a turning point in the world situation.
With Lu Bu's character, warnings from others may not be of much use. As a son-in-law, a few reminders by myself should not cause a backlash. Anyway, Zhang Liao is still there to support him.
Finally, what Wang Yu needs to decide urgently is the candidate for the envoy to Liaodong. (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
