Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1553 Dilemma

The winter sun looks dazzling, but in reality it is just the same thing, hanging feebly in the sky, like an office director who has been eight years old and has signed a long-term contract. He is not without enthusiasm, but without passion.

Liu Li sat under a tree, letting the sun shine on his face, but Liu Li still felt cold and chilled from the bottom of his heart.

hehe.

I, Liu Li, Liu Jingguo, would have such a day...

Liu Li closed his eyes and felt that his mouth was astringent and bitter, and he couldn't tell what it felt like.

A scene emerged in Liu Li's mind.

Yellow sky, bloody land, howling wind.

The three-color battle flags above the Yin Mountain flutter in the wind.

General Zhengxi stands under the three-color battle flag. The yellow sand is flying on the ground, and the figure is looming, and the eyes are like a dream.

At that time, Fei Qian, who was still leading the position of Zhonglang General, stood proudly on the Yinshan Mountain: "A certain person led the troops to the north. If the soldiers and generals did not work together, if there were no singles to help, and if there were no support from the elders in Bingzhou, there would be no glory at this moment! If I wish to express my congratulations, it should be for the brothers and sisters who have fought hard and wounded along the way, for the people in the north of Bingzhou who have been devastated by the Xianbei, for all of you who have worked together, for the thousands of miles of China, and for the glorious man!"

Liu Li still feels his blood boiling when he thinks about it.

next moment.

The gray sky, the black land, and the same howling wind.

The long and winding queue seemed to be long worms struggling to survive in the yellow sand.

Liu Bei had just been defeated at that time and was homeless. The army was in panic all day long, but Liu Bei still had a bright smile and a clear voice: "If we go to one place with our hearts and our efforts, even if there are thorns everywhere, we can still find a place of peace of mind." ! You have lived up to your expectations today, and you will live up to your expectations tomorrow! Look forward! As long as you don’t lower your head, you can still see the whole world!"

At that moment, Liu Bei's smile was still bright and bright, with the innocence of a child. People seemed to feel warmth and hope when they saw it, just like Liu Bei's smile when he first met Liu Li. , still exactly the same.

Liu Li still remembers what kind of warmth he could feel.

The two images collided suddenly, turning into a sky full of fire...

Liu Li covered his face with his hands in pain, feeling that his heart was like dust in the strong wind, always floating in the air, never feeling at ease.

Can anyone tell me what exactly I should do?

He returned to General Zhengxi's side, but he didn't feel relieved. Even Liu Li found it difficult to control and conceal this feeling. How could someone as smart as General Zhengxi not notice it? However, General Zhengxi still did not transfer my troops, and even treated them equally...

The small bamboo tube in his arms was like a piece of red-hot charcoal, burning and making Liu Li very uncomfortable.

Inside the bamboo tube is the defense plan of General Fei Qian's camp.

The camp of Fei Qian, the general who conquered the West, was twenty-five miles away from the county. And twenty-five miles is a quite embarrassing distance. It seems to be just a little more than the normal ten or fifteen miles. If the value on the book falls into reality, the soldiers will have to walk for an extra hour or two, regardless of the impact on the soldiers' physical consumption. He said that if he couldn't conquer it and wanted to turn back to the county, and then encounter Zhang Liao's more than 600 cavalry flanking him for a flank attack, the extra ten miles would become a nightmare.

Therefore, unless you have a complete grasp of the opponent's movements and are certain of winning, as an infantry commander, you will not leave the camp easily.

As Liu Bei, what he naturally hopes to get most is about the composition of the troops, the distribution of camps, and the most critical defense settings of Fei Qian, the general who conquered the west, just like the county defense map Liu Li provided to Fei Qian.

With an accurate defense plan, we can make targeted adjustments, control the speed and distance of the army's march, and effectively maintain the physical strength of the soldiers, so that the soldiers can immediately launch an attack after reaching an effective point, while at the same time protecting the opponent's defense. There are also corresponding plans for mobilization, which will naturally increase the winning rate a lot.

However, do we really have to hand over this defense map?

Fei Qian, the general who conquered the West, had righteousness, pacified Baibo, expelled Xianbei, and recovered Yinshan. Which one of them was not the righteousness of the family and the country?

How can those who violate righteousness stand in heaven and earth?

But Liu Bei, the general of the left, is kind. In the past few years, not to mention Liu Bei, even the second and third generals have taken good care of him, and the kindness of passing on his skills has flowed into my heart bit by bit. How can I just forget it?

How can an ungrateful person be seen in the world?

One side is righteousness, the other side is kindness. Liu Li was already bursting into tears before he knew it...

county.

When Guan Yu saw another wave of scouts, he retreated in embarrassment, and his two eyebrows were almost connected together.

"Don't be upset, just give birth and rest!"

Guan Yu's attitude towards the nobles seemed to be arrogant and even cold, but he was very kind to ordinary soldiers. After asking about the situation of the reconnaissance, he gently ordered the scouts to go down and rest.

In the past few days, the scouts have suffered severe losses.

The key is that Fei Qian, the general of Zhengxi, used some magic method to hide his soldiers in the trees and grass, making them invisible. Liu Bei's scouts suffered a big loss from the beginning.

Although some of Liu Bei's scouts later escaped and came back to explain some of the situation, the problem is that these scouts may not be able to clearly describe the disguise of the expedition to the west. Even if they can describe it, others who have not seen it still have no corresponding concepts...

People who know about the Geely Suit of the chicken game will naturally have a concept, but it is naturally not easy to explain it to a person who has never been exposed to the chicken game and has never seen any auspicious suit.

What?

Draw it?

Haha, friends who have this idea may wish to draw it themselves, and then show it to someone who doesn’t know about ghillie suits and give it a try first...

"Brother, our scouts have suffered a lot in recent days..." Guan Yu came to the county hall, saw Liu Bei, and said, "If this continues, I'm afraid..."

Liu Bei lowered his head and did not notice Guan Yu's arrival. He was concentrating on looking at the map, as if he wanted to see the flowers on the map, so he did not immediately respond to Guan Yu's question.

"Brother..." Guan Yu called softly again.

"Ah? What did the second brother just say?" Liu Bei seemed to have come back from his meditation. He raised his head and felt that his neck was a little sore. He couldn't help but stretched out his hands and kneaded it a few times to relax his muscles before vomiting. He took a breath and said, "Oh... Scout... This General Zhengxi... is indeed well-deserved..."

When Guan Yu heard this, he immediately narrowed his eyes. He brushed his long beard.

Liu Bei was as familiar with Guan Yu as he knew the palm of his hand. Seeing Guan Yu's demeanor, he knew that although Guan Yu didn't say anything, he must still be a little arrogant and disobedient, so he simply clicked on the map and said: "Two Brother, it’s true that it’s not me who emits other people’s ambitions and destroys my own prestige, come on, come and see…”

"In the past few days, our scouts can probably only reach almost here..." Liu Bei drew a vague line outside the county, about twenty miles away, "However, it is extremely difficult to move forward... …Second brother, do you know why this is?”

"There are many people who talk about demon magic, but from a certain point of view..." Guan Yu narrowed his eyes and said, "There is no demon magic, it's just that there are more elites under the Conquest of the West..." The Yellow Turban Thief also used demon magic back then, Wasn't the one with magical powers also chopped off with one blow? The invulnerable Yellow Turban warriors are actually some relatively elite and well-equipped Yellow Turban thieves. Presumably, the current situation encountered by scouts is similar.

Liu Bei smiled and nodded, and said, "This is one, but is there another?"

"Second?" Guan Yu opened his eyes slightly, looked at the map again, pondered for a moment, and said, "Could it be...this distance..."

"Exactly! The second brother is really talented! Ordinary people will never notice this difference..." Liu Bei praised Guan Yu's speculation and continued, "Ordinary scouts, unless otherwise stated, twenty Thirty miles is a constant. If it is forty or fifty miles, it will basically take one round trip per day... and the main camp of the Western Expedition is twenty miles away, so our scouts came here from the county..."

Liu Bei pointed to the line of twenty miles and continued: "...the manpower and horsepower consume less than half, but in comparison, the Zhengxi people and horses only walked this distance..." Liu Bei made a gesture on the map. , "In this way, the Zhengxi scouts consume little money and can wait for work... It is not surprising that the scouts failed... But we have to investigate... Zhengxi is good at strategy. With his reputation, he has achieved results. Wuxushi..."

In the age of cold weapons, physical strength was the key factor. Even Guan Yu, if his physical strength was exhausted, would be like a bloody skin. The soldier in the sentry tower might throw a tripping rope and fall.

"The little thief from Zhengxi is indeed cunning!" Guan Yu snorted coldly, "That being the case, brother, why...well, there has been no news from Liu Jingguo for many days, could it be..."

"My dear brother Jingguo has a square face and a kind heart. He will live up to me..." Liu Bei lowered his head and looked at the map. He interrupted before Guan Yu finished speaking.

When Guan Yu heard this, his eyes flickered and he glanced at Liu Bei. Then he narrowed his eyes again and focused his eyes on the map...

…………………………

The general camp of Zhengxi.

Fei Qian, the general who conquered the west, was also looking at the map, but his map was larger than Liu Bei's, covering not just the Sichuan and Shu regions, but the whole of China.

Although Fei Qian came with his troops, he actually had no intention of attacking the county directly.

Normally, to conquer a city, you need to clear out the city's troops in the wild before you can effectively carry out siege operations. In other words, if Fei Qian wants to attack the county, you must first control the county. Only after the large camps on both wings have been captured one after another can we confidently and boldly besiege the county.

As for the two large camps on the left and right of the county, they were first built with all their strength under Pang Xi, and then repaired and organized under Guan Yu. Even with the defense plans brought by Liu Li, it was not something that could be conquered.

Even if you use gunpowder to blow open the camp gate, you may not be able to win immediately. The simplest way to deal with it is to dig a big hole inside the camp gate and put wooden boards on it. Normally, there will be no problem with the soldiers coming and going inside the camp, but the soldiers rushing in from the outside will definitely not know...

Therefore, for Fei Qian, it is best not to attack the difficulties if he can.

Of course, for Liu Bei, the same is naturally true. No one is a fool. He would give up his own advantages and then be beaten into a white dragon fish suit by others. No matter how badass a playboy is, he would not cling to his hips so foolishly...

Therefore, as long as the army is dispatched, whether it is Fei Qian himself or Liu Bei's opponent, they will definitely be dispatched when they judge that they can occupy a certain advantage and have a relatively high winning rate, and will not launch attacks at will and consume their own strength.

Just like in Wuzhangyuan, when the strength of both sides is almost equal, even Brother Zhu can only send a woman's clothing to express his indignation, but there is nothing else he can do...

To be honest, Fei Qian really hopes to lure Liu Bei out for another fight. After all, when it comes to the ability of his soldiers in frontal combat in the wild, Fei Qian is quite confident. In such an era of cold weapons, our equipment is better than Liu Bei's, our soldiers are better trained than Liu Bei, and our logistics treatment is more expensive than Liu Bei's. Bah, it's better. If it's a head-on confrontation in the field, naturally it's Occupy certain advantages.

Moreover, Fei Qian is out of the protection range of Guanghan. For Liu Bei, it also enhances Liu Bei's temptation. After all, for Liu Bei, if Fei Qian is captured and killed here, then the overall situation in Sichuan will basically mean that he can be killed immediately. Certainly.

Although for Fei Qian himself, he still has the upper hand if he stays in Guanghan and delays, and no matter how Liu Bei operates in Sichuan, there is always a chance that the hidden dangers Fei Qian has buried will explode. But the problem is that Liu Bei can only focus on The war situation in Sichuan and Shu, but for Fei Qian, he had to consider everything.

Let's not talk about the changes in Jizhou and Yanzhou. I received news from Longyou a few days ago that Lu Bulu and Lu Fengxian went through many investigations and even wiped out three related Hu tribes. Finally, they found the person who had previously intercepted and killed Bai Que. According to the traces of the group of horse thieves, Li Ru's letter stated that Lu Bu had led his men and horses towards the place where the group of horse thieves were hiding...

If Longyou can be pacified, then Lu Bu's family in Taiyuan will have to be escorted to the Hexi Corridor. Some civilian and military personnel will also be arranged, and trade routes will be established with foreign countries scattered throughout Hexi. Then use these guys to see if you can get some items that the big man doesn't have.

At the same time, what is Lu Bu and Lu Fengxian's current condition? With Li Ru here, there is naturally no problem, but Li Ru's body... is also a small hidden danger...

On the other hand, the conflict between the Wuhuan and Xianbei people in the far north of Yinshan Mountain is also getting bigger and bigger. On the one hand, it is because Liu Yu’s son Liu He and his brothers of salted meat and fish, ahem, Yan Rou Xianyu brothers and others are involved in it. On the other hand, the weather is getting colder and the pastures are shrinking. Anyway, the war is about to break out...

In addition, news has also come from Jingzhou that Liu Biao seems to be in serious health problems. If Liu Biao really can't survive for long, then should Jingxiang's territory be dealt with, or should he elect an agent, or... By Wong…

These things must be considered and dealt with. Therefore, the surrounding environment has changed, which makes Fei Qian naturally hope that the battle in Sichuan and Shu can end earlier and take action earlier to deal with other problems.

Of course, the most important thing is not what Fei Qian wants, it still depends on whether Liu Bei cooperates...

The sound of clanging armor scales came along with the sound of footsteps, and the soldiers on guard duty outside the tent shouted loudly: "Your Majesty! General Zhang asks for an audience!"

Is this finally a new change?

Fei Qian put down the map in his hand and said loudly: "Please!"

After a while, the curtain of the Chinese army's tent was raised, and Zhang Liao walked in. He raised his hands and said, "It's just as my lord expected..."
