Chapter 931 Lu Su's Suggestions

After Huangfu Chaobo turned off Lu Su's personal attribute table with great satisfaction, he signaled Huang Zhong to start.

Since last year, the army has attacked no less than twenty cities. In fact, there is nothing to report. I just want to report to Huangfu Chaobo the progress of today's war, the combat strength of the defenders in the city, and the estimated attack rate. How long will it take to get down to the city and how many casualties will the army suffer?

After reporting these situations, Huang Zhong and Zhang He each reported on the situation of the generals and troops of the two armies. Finally, there were some comments from Guo Jia, the military advisor, on today's war. It took more than half an hour to talk like this. After Huangfu Chaobo listened, he ordered each general to return to camp.

When the generals were about to exit the tent, Huangfu Chaobo suddenly called out to Huang Zhong and Zhang He. After hearing this, the two people immediately returned to the tent and quietly waited for Huangfu Chaobo's order.

Huangfu Chaobo looked at the two of them and said, "Sit down first. I'll discuss anything with you."

After hearing this, the two of them returned to their seats and sat down.

Then Huangfu Chaobo said slowly: "I believe everyone already knows that the Cao and Sun families have begun to exert their strength, and they should have invaded Jiujiang County by now. It is estimated that they are also thinking of taking advantage of us and Yuan Shu's army to lose both sides. At that time, we wanted to end the war in Huainan this year, and one thing is certain that both of them are going for Yuxi."

As he said that, Huangfu Chaobo looked around at everyone and saw that no one had any reaction. Apparently they had all thought of this, so he added: "I am not keen on the matter of the Jade Seal. If I can get it, I will give it to you." It’s not easy to deal with. But there are many things in Shouchun City that attract my attention.”

Speaking of this, Huangfu Chaobo smiled mockingly. To be honest, although the emperor mentioned the jade seal in the imperial edict, Huangfu Chaobo really didn't want to go out of his way to grab this thing. Especially when the little tiger was watching covetously and irritating him, he really dared to fight for his life.

It's not that Huangfu Chaobo is afraid of him, but that he doesn't want to add another enemy yet, because the Anton Army's next target is Cao Cao. This is an established strategy and cannot be changed easily, otherwise he will be in trouble.

Another point is that if the little tiger is really annoyed and he joins forces with Cao Cao to attack him, Cao Cao will definitely be very happy. Who knows, Hou Sima Yi's little dog will incite Cao Cao again. A joint troop dispatch will make the game even bigger.

Besides, another point is that if the jade seal really comes into my hands and the little emperor comes to ask for it, will I not give it to him, or will he not give it to me? This is a very difficult question.

But the jade seal can be dispensed with, but Shouchun has to be beaten. According to the news from the shadow, there are many good things in Shouchun City that Yuan Shu has collected over the years. It is impossible to get advantage of those two companies in vain.

After much deliberation, Huangfu Chaobo decided to send troops to attack Shouchun. He didn't have to give up the land and the jade seal, but he couldn't give up the money in Shouchun City. Moreover, Shouchun was about to fight, and the Lujiang side could not stop. Only then did Huangfu Chaobo think of leaving the two of them to discuss sending troops together.

"Shu County is the county seat of Lujiang. If you look at Shu County, then the other cities in Lujiang should not be too difficult. So I decided to divide the army into two groups. One group will continue to stay in Lujiang to conquer the entire territory, and the other army will turn northward. Invade Jiujiang and try to arrive at Shouchun City at the same time as the armies of the other two princes." Huangfu Chaobo slowly told everyone his thoughts; "Everyone is here, so I want everyone to discuss whether it is feasible."

After hearing Huangfu Chaobo's words, everyone fell silent. Everyone understands what Huangfu Chaobo means. Since the generals have left Huang Zhong and Zhang He behind, the implication is that Zhang He will be the main general left to continue to attack the cities in Lujiang, while Huang Zhong will definitely go north to attack Shou. The master of spring.

After a long time, Guo Jiacai said: "The Lord's intention is to leave some troops to continue attacking the cities in Lujiang, while most of the troops will march northward.

Together with the other two princes, we attacked Shouchun. We agreed. According to our original idea, we would take advantage of the main force of Yuan Shu's army in the east to capture Lujiang first, and then turn around to attack Shouchun. But now Ji Ling and our army After the war, our army's layout has been disrupted. If we don't make changes, we may not be able to catch up with the Battle of Shouchun. "

Unexpectedly, Pang Tong did not agree, but shook his head and said: "In my opinion, this may not be the case. Judging from the situation of the Cao and Sun families, Shouchun who wants to capture Zhonghou's defense will probably suffer huge losses, so It is very likely that they will wait for our army to attack Shouchun together, instead of attacking alone or as two families. "

The two military advisors had different ideas. Huangfu Chaobo quickly turned his attention to the newly recruited Lu Su.

Lu Su did not speak, but listened quietly. Seeing this, Huangfu Chaobo quickly explained to him the original strategy of discussion in detail, and also told him his idea of ​​letting Zhang He lead the army alone. Then wait for his suggestion.

However, Huang Zhong and Zhang He had been listening quietly, knowing that this was not the time for them to speak. Zhang He, in particular, is very excited now. Leaving him and Huang Zhong behind under such circumstances means that Huangfu Chaobo has begun to prepare for him to be responsible for a military force alone, officially taking the position of commander-in-chief of the First Army. Made progress.

After a moment of silence, Lu Su spoke slowly: "My lord, in fact, the ideas of the two military advisors do not conflict."

Huangfu Chaobo's eyes lit up as soon as he opened his mouth, and he stretched out his hand to signal him to continue.

“I believe that the lord has seen the situation of the Juchao garrison today. The various cities in Lujiang, no, it should be said that the various cities of Yuan Shu’s army, have seen a lot of decline in the strength of the garrisons after Yuan Shu’s two withdrawals of troops. Take Juchao County as an example. Now there are only 2,000 veterans and 3,000 newly recruited soldiers in the city. Among these 2,000 soldiers, 2,000 of the 3,000 soldiers with strong combat power have been sent to Shouchun, which is the newly formed city guard. The remaining 1,000 people were transferred to Shu County by the governor. The 2,000 veterans who stayed in the county , in fact, the combat power is not strong. "

"And the newly recruited 3,000 new soldiers were recruited less than two months ago, so there is no way to talk about combat power, so the lord's strategy is completely feasible. According to Su's opinion, there is no need for too many troops to stay and continue the attack, and 20,000 to 30,000 troops should be enough. Of course, because we don't know the combat power of our soldiers, these are just Lu Su's personal opinions, and the lord needs to discuss and decide with everyone. "After Lu Su finished speaking, he bowed and returned to his seat and sat down.
