Lan Tian asked jokingly: "General Guan must kill Lu Meng?"

"I hate these scoundrels the most. I originally thought that when I went north to attack Fancheng, I would sacrifice him and Lu Chang in front of the battle, but if Ziyu had other arrangements, Guan would have to..."

"Hahaha, this man hates us to the core. If he really stays, there will be disaster. General Guan can deal with him as he pleases." Lan Tian couldn't help but smile.

"I thought Ziyu wanted to spare this man's life, but why did you let Sun Quan redeem the prisoner?" Guan Yu looked puzzled.

"The prisoners naturally include generals and soldiers. Governor Su made his words more ambiguous when he arrived, and the demands can be made as excessive as possible. It is naturally up to us to decide what we will give back in exchange. This plan is just to delay time and stabilize Sun Quan.

The dog jumped over the wall so that we could attack Fancheng with peace of mind." Lan Tian added.

"General, I understand." Su Fei nodded as if he understood.

Guan Yu pointed at Lan Tian and laughed heartily: "How can you think of such vivid words like a dog jumping over the wall, Ziyu? It's so vivid. That Biyaner will probably hate you to death if he can't get the captive he wants..."

"Let him hold grudges however he wants. It's not the first time anyway, so what should I be afraid of? He called me Owl before. This was all incompetent rage." Lan Tian shook his head and laughed at himself.

"Incompetent Fury, Ziyu said it well, let's have a drink for Bi Yaner's Incompetent Fury." Guan Yu raised his glass.

"Drink." All the generals raised their glasses.

"I just mentioned Lu Meng, why does this man only have two fingers left on his left hand?" Lan Tian put down his wine glass and asked curiously.

Guan Ping immediately explained: "I just asked the captured soldiers. They said that Han Dang was killed in the formation before Zhongling. In order not to affect the morale of the army, Lu Meng secretly buried Han Dang in the camp. As a result, the traitor general Fu Shiren went to dig the grave out of curiosity and mistakenly thought it was Han Dang.

Lü Meng killed people and buried their bodies. When the two had a conflict, Fu Shiren cut off Lü Meng's hand, and he himself was cut into pieces with random knives..."

After hearing this, Lan Tian felt incredible and couldn't help but mutter to himself: "Fu Shiren, this 25-year-old man, is so accurate in his chops that he actually turned Lu Meng into a 25-year-old man (two fingers on his left hand and five fingers on his right hand)."

"Ziyu, what did you just say?" Guan Yu asked loudly.

Lan Tian was startled when he heard this, and blurted out a plan: "I mean this matter can be used to make a fuss, so that the descendants of Lu Meng and Han Dang can turn against each other..."

Guan Yu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he thought to himself, "You guys are really good at outsmarting us," "There's a lot of good news today. Let's have another drink to celebrate the execution of the traitor Fu Shiren. A villain like this who surrenders to the enemy and treason doesn't deserve to live."

That night, Linju county government had a banquet that lasted until late at night. After the party was over, the county magistrate invited Guan Yu and Lan Tian to rest in the dormitory he had vacated, but Guan Yu refused.

"General Lan and I haven't seen each other for a long time. We still have a lot of military affairs to discuss tonight. Let's clean up the hall. We will rest here tonight."

"only."

Linju County is located in the northwest of Jingzhou. Because it borders Xiangyang controlled by Cao Cao, the conditions in the county are far less favorable than Jiangling. It is even more primitive because of its small population.

The best room in the county seat was the magistrate's bedroom in the county government office. In order to receive the two heavyweights, he sent his wife and concubine to live in the post house, and chose two handsome maids to serve him. As a result, Guan Yu

Didn't take his move.

After Linju Ling left, he asked the maids to carry all the good quilts at home to the main hall, thinking that the two bosses would not sleep on the bed, but also wanted to imbue the quilt with some heroic spirit.

The maids sent the quilts outside the palace, and were picked up by Guan Ping and Gao Yuan, who were in charge of the dormitory guards. The maids didn't even have a chance to see the faces of Guan Yu and Lan Tian, ​​but those quilts probably wouldn't be washed again.

Guan Ping and Gao Yuan pushed open the door and entered. Lan Tian and Guan Yu were still talking quietly to the map. They quickly laid the floor and left because they were discussing military secrets inside.

"What did Ziyu mean just now, that you still want to keep Sun Quan? But this guy is always restless, and there is no way to keep restricting him like this. Why don't we wait for me to stand firm in Xiangfan, and then we can go down the river and destroy the rats from Jiangdong. At that time, brother

Then compete with Cao Cao for the world." Guan Yu suggested.

Lan Tian pointed at the map and said: "Chang Yun, take a closer look at the length of this front. Even if we can really capture Jiangdong, how many troops will be needed to defend it? In addition, Shanyue in the south of Yangzhou often rebels, and how much energy will be diverted from us?

? Several military advisors will not agree to take Jiangdong first."

"Bi Yan'er and Cao Cao were secretly in league with each other. It's really hard for Guan to swallow this tone..." Guan Yu remembered that Lu Meng pretended to be sick, Lu Xun pretended to be humble, and he was actually fooled around, so there was no trace of that tone.

"The Jiangdong gentry and Sun Quan are both short-sighted. Although they are secretly colluding with Cao Cao at this time, if we really defeat Cao Cao and take the Central Plains, they will definitely take action against Huainan. As long as we defend Jiangxia, we can rest easy." Lan Tian answered confidently.

Guan Yu stared at the map thoughtfully, "Ziyu wants me to secure Xiangfan first, and then send troops north to capture Wan and Luo, and cut off the connection between the Central Plains and the west of Hulao Pass. My eldest brother will then send troops to capture Yongliang, and finally join forces."

Send troops to the east to seize the Central Plains?"

Lan Tian nodded in agreement: "Only by deploying in this way can various places be effectively linked. However, Hanzhong and Wudu have been initially decided. It will take a few years to recuperate. This is the opportunity for General Guan to shock the world."

Guan Yu felt his blood boiling with passion. He grabbed Lan Tian's hand and shook it, "Brother praises you for your prediction of a situation that is unparalleled in the world. How about we work together to shake up the world?"

"Yun Chang, please relax, this is my responsibility." Lan Tian nodded in response.

The corner of Guan Yu's lips raised: "Tomorrow I will return to Xiangyang by the original route. Ziyu will come as soon as possible by water. It is said that Cao Cao has gathered another hundred thousand mobs. Fortunately, Lu Hun's Sun Lang rebelled last month, and Liang County, south of Xudu,

The people of Jiaxian County responded, and I immediately sent them seals and ribbons, otherwise I would not have the energy to pursue Pan Zhang and Zhu Ran."

"This is the so-called overall thinking. Sun Lang and others rebelled because they suffered from corvee labor, and the common people's corvee labor was heavy because of the Battle of Hanzhong. Cao Cao only thought of moving the people of Hanzhong and Wudu, but he didn't know what price he had to pay for the migration.

It’s your own fault for being stymied by the rebels this time. This is called ‘pulling one hair and affecting the whole body’.”

Lan Tian's analysis made Guan Yu suddenly enlightened, and he thought that the war could still be interpreted in this way. No wonder the eldest brother liked to talk to Ziyu. Communicating with experts can broaden his knowledge.

Guan Yu said with confidence: "This time I join forces with Ziyu, and I am very confident that I can defeat Cao Cao. Ziyu, you have been hiding for so many years, you should let Cao Cao know your existence. Brother, he has more than four plotters."

Lan Tian smiled slightly: "False fame is like a cloud to me. As long as I can help my brother-in-law, Jiangling has just suffered a military disaster. I am taking the waterway to arrange the transportation of materials in Jingnan and Jiaozhou to ensure that Jingzhou's waterways can resume transportation in the past. Yun Chang

Just wait for me in Xiangyang for a few days, maybe I will bring you a surprise?"

"What surprise?" Guan Yu looked puzzled.

"You will know when the time comes. Telling it will lessen the sense of expectation. Yunchang should rest early. We have to travel tomorrow." After Lan Tian finished speaking, he opened the quilt and got in.

The cold wind howls in Jingzhou in November. Although the floor in the palace is covered with a thick quilt, he still feels the coldness on his face. At this time, Lan Tian's heart is like a blazing sun. He can successfully change Guan Yu's life against the will of heaven. It is not in vain.

It has been laid out for so many years.
