An urgent secret meeting was held in the prefecture of Ji County and the prefect of Yuyang, which was naturally discussed the fierce wars around Fengning City and the rapid changes in the situation.
In the Yuyang Prefecture House, not only Gongsun Zan, Gongsun Fan, Gongsun Yue and Gongsun Zan's military advisor Guan Jing were present, but also two famous generals who recently participated in Gongsun Zan also attended the meeting. One was Tian Kai (third level) and the other was Yan Gang (fourth level). If Liu Yu saw that these people in the Prefecture House were already Gongsun Zan's entire family, he would definitely find a way to instigate Su Yanpu to attack the Gongsun Zan's forces in Liaodong. Unfortunately, Liu Yu did not know that Gongsun Zan had quietly gathered all his strength in Yuyang.
"Zhong Yu, let's talk about the current situation first." Gongsun Zan's face looked a little red under the swaying light, and his eyes were even more shiny, like a wild wolf who had discovered his prey.
"No! According to the latest news, after Li Shehu, a general under Fang Zhiwen, attacked the camp of Guliu Town in Tadun, he had led his troops to surround Guliu Town, and a large number of Yiren troops were involved in this matter. Under Fengning City, it is said that Murong's side once again defeated the full attack of the Wuhuan people today, but the Wuhuan people who suffered heavy losses still refused to withdraw their troops easily. Now the Wuhuan people have two ways. One is to return to the south and return to the grasslands in the northern Yuyang to survive, and the other is to insist on besieging Fengning City and send people to ask for help from the Xianbei people."
Gongsun Yue explained the latest news with a blank expression. It was not that he was not excited about the current situation at all, but his personality was so cold, so only the eldest brother and cousin who were familiar with him knew that Gongsun Yue was very excited now.
"Second General, why didn't there be any news about Tadun and Fang Zhiwen in the information?" Yan Gang frowned slightly, feeling that this matter was very strange. In a life-and-death battle, the leaders of both forces disappeared.
"I don't know! Since the beginning of this war, Fang Zhiwen showed up when he massacred Fengning Camp, and there has been no news again. Tadun led his army north after being slaughtered in Fengning Camp, and then lost the news. It is very likely that these two people were entangled in some place, or Fang Zhiwen set a trap for Tadun, and the massacre in Fengning Camp was just a bait for this trap."
"Second brother, what are the actions Liu Bo'an has done?"
"Recently, Yan's troops are gathering in Youbeiping, and Shanggu County is also stepping up recruitment."
Gongsun Zan waved his hand and said, "The Yan Rou brothers are still able to defend themselves, but the offense is insufficient. Shanggu is a defensive posture, and the attack should be Youbeiping. It is very likely that Liu Bo'an's target is Lu Longsai. Retrieving Lu Longsai is of vital significance to the stability of Youbeiping. In the future, as Fang Zhiwen gradually grows, Lu Longsai's importance will be more prominent. On the contrary, Liu Bo'an does not have the courage to compete with Fang Zhiwen on the grassland, nor does he have the ability to do so."
"Brother, let's take the opportunity to go out of Yuyang Pass and take down the Tadun Haoshan Camp two hundred miles away from Yuyang Pass?"
"Hehe, Liu Bo'an is afraid, my Gongsun Bogui is not afraid. If you take down Haoshan to build a city, what can Fang Zhiwen do to me?"
Gongsun Zan smiled proudly. To be honest, Liu Yu hated and feared Fang Zhiwen. Gongsun Zan was more interested in using Fang Zhiwen. If you want to be afraid, Gongsun Zan was not afraid of Fang Zhiwen at all. When he was right with the Xianbei people of Wuhuan on the grassland, Fang Zhiwen didn't know which mountain corner was there?
Gongsun Zan was no matter what, he was a disciple of Lu Zhi. Although he had not been to school for a few days, his reputation was not there. Fang Zhiwen was just a lucky military man. Taking advantage of Gongsun Zan and Liu Yu, he took advantage of it and then encountered the opportunity when Wuhuan Lao Wang Qiu Liju died of illness and Wuhuan in the central part of the country split. With the help of Yi Ren, he took advantage of the situation and said that the real power was not afraid of his opponent at all.
Gongsun Zan is definitely a big underestimation. Not to mention territory and economic strength, just talking about generals, Gongsun Zan himself is a sixth-level military general, Gongsun Yue, Gongsun Fan, Yan Gang is a fourth-level, Tian Kai is a third-level, and Fang Zhiwen is a fifth-level, Zheluo and Yuwen Boyan are a fourth-level, Li Yuanzhi, Li Shehu, Murong Fang is a third-level, and others are like Duan Zhiran, and Duan Zigang is a second-level, and if you are purely superior to the general, Gongsun Zan does not have the advantage at all.
If the number of troops is compared, it may be half a dozen. The only thing better than Fang Zhiwen is that Gongsun Zan controls two cities, one is Yuyang and the other is Xiangping of Liaodong County. Relying on the blood supply from these two cities, Gongsun Zan now feels that his power is steadily suppressing Fang Zhiwen.
In fact, Fang Zhiwen has a Miyun City. Miyun City has a large number of second- and third-level towns, and its taxes are more than twice that of the desolate Xiangping City. With the establishment of Fengning City, the second city in Fang Zhiwen's hands will soon appear, and there is also a Linxi City hiding in the mountains, which is about to upgrade the city. Then Guliu Town returns, Fang Zhiwen's bargaining chips are becoming more and more. On the contrary, the little chips in Gongsun Zan still need to fight wits and courage with Liu Yu.
But now, no one on Gongsun Zan's side has truly realized that Fang Zhiwen's power is comparable to that of the Gongsun family. Although Gongsun Zan probably lacked the strength of Fang Zhiwen when he made this decision, the timing was very good, which was a bit of a mistake. From this point of view, what the most lacking in Gongsun Zan's power is actually the mastermind.
Why is it said that it was a coincidence? Because all the power of Fang Zhiwen is now entangled by the Wuhuan people, the three main camps of Haoshan, Rehe and Linghe in the Tadun tribe, and Chifeng, a medium-sized camp further north. Fang Zhiwen is really unable to take care of it now. When Gongsun Zan chose to pick peaches now, Fang Zhiwen could only watch. Once Gongsun Zan successfully built the city, Fang Zhiwen could not break up and attack, wouldn't he be rebellious?!
On the contrary, if Gongsun Zan did not dare to attack Haoshan Camp now, Fang Zhiwen would attack Haoshan Camp. In fact, it was a false siege to siege Guliu Town. Li Shehu was indeed leading the army of Yiren to advance to Haoshan Camp at this moment. Guliu Town is now a turtle in a jar and can't make waves at all. As long as Tadun's camp is destroyed, Guliu Town will go down without fighting.
Moreover, there are only tens of thousands of soldiers in Guliu Town, and there is no fuel or water at all. On the contrary, there are more than 300,000 people and a large number of livestock in Haoshan Camp. Do you need to consider which one to choose as the target? Unfortunately, due to distance, if Gongsun Zan is determined to send troops immediately, the speed will be faster than Li Shohu.

At the same time, Liu Yu's generals under Liu Yufu, Xian Yuyin, Yan Rou, Yan Zhi, Wei You, Zhao Gai, Cheng Xu and other civil and military officials were all there.
"Sir, the situation outside the border has changed, and Tadun's life and death are unknown. The Wuhuan people broke into sand at Fengning City, and the Guliu Town camp was completely destroyed. It was the time when we regained the Han family's prestige. The subordinates thought that they should go out to Shanggu, seize Lu Long, and join the prefect of Fang to attack Wuhuan."
Wei You's voice was sonorous and powerful, but it was a bit too ideal. Although Wei You had good political abilities, his military strategy and politics were much worse. He didn't figure it out that Fang Zhiwen might not be able to cooperate with Liu Yu sincerely. Similarly, Liu Yu did not feel like making a wedding dress for Fang Zhiwen.
Liu Yu did not object, but just nodded lightly and turned his eyes to Yan Rou. Forget about the Xianyu brothers, these two can only fight, and Zhao Jia is a gloomy person who is not the same as Liu Yu, so Cheng Xu is not suitable to speak.
Yan Rou had a very eyebrow. This was a skill that was made of surviving the world. Seeing Liu Yu looking at him with his eyes, he immediately understood what Liu Yu meant. Since Liu Yu did not express his opinion to Wei You's words, but instead made him speak, obviously not very satisfied with Wei You's words. So where was he not satisfied? Yan Rou was thinking quickly, but Yan Zhi on the side could no longer help but speak.
"Mr. Wei's words are inappropriate."
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "Oh, what's wrong with Yuan Qing's words?"
Yan Zhi glanced at Wei You and Wei Yuanqing with a calm expression, and then looked at his helpless brother, and couldn't help regretting it. But now he was ready to retreat, so he had to stalk his neck and said in a somewhat stiff voice: "Mr. Wei, the north of Shanggu is the Wuhuan Nanlou and the Lou Ban Department. The Tadun tribe who was attacked by Lord Fang is the Tadun tribe. These Wuhuan people are said to be a family, but at this time of danger, both the Lou Ban and the Nanlou ignore it. Therefore, it is not necessary to 'go out of Shanggu'! Because the strength of the Wuhuan people here has not been damaged!"
Yan Rou glanced at Liu Yu's expression, and saw that Liu Yu's face was a little surprised, but he didn't dislike it. He quietly let go of his worries. It seemed that Liu Yu did not agree with Lu Long, so what about taking Lu Long? This should be more realistic. Moreover, Lu Long is in his hands and Da'an, which is a good thing for Liu Yu to Yan Rou.
"Sir, I agree with my brother's statement. Shanggu should be determined to stay and wait for change. If it is difficult for Lou and Lou Ban to enter east, you can go out to Shanggu to attack his side and back. As for regaining Lu Long, it is time for Lu Long to be taken away in large numbers. It should not be difficult to seize Lu Long. After Lu Long, you can retreat to Youbeiping and attack the Rehe Camp in the north. This is a key place! Please decide."
Yan Rou immediately answered the words, fearing that Yan Zhi would cause some trouble if he continued to say anything. Yan Zhi woke up and secretly wiped his sweat and quickly shrank back.
Wei You nodded thoughtfully. His opinion was not completely denied, so he would not be unhappy. Moreover, Yan Zhi's words were very reasonable, because his opinion was somewhat biased, and he was not the kind of person who could not listen to it.
Liu Yu nodded secretly. Whether from a military or political perspective, it is very correct to take the opportunity to seize the Lulong Fortress. If you think longer, Lulong Fortress is in your hands, it is equivalent to blocking Fang Zhiwen's way southward. Now the Miyun Secret Road is going south through Yuyang County, so Gongsun Zan naturally will not let Fang Zhiwen go south at will. If Fang Zhiwen swept the Tadun tribe and occupied Lulong Fortress, then Fang Zhiwen is equivalent to obtaining another way to go south, which is not good for Liu Yu.
In addition, Lu Long has the means to advance and retreat freely. Not to mention that the northward advance can attack the Rehe camp of the Wuhuan people, it can also become a means to threaten and restrict Fang Zhiwen in the future. Lu Long must be in his own hands.
"Do you have any opinions?" Liu Yu glanced around majesticly. Anyone who is familiar with Liu Yu knew that Liu Yu had made a decision when he asked this.
Sure enough, Liu Yu did not stop and then ordered: "I will order Xian Yuyin to lead his troops to Youbeiping to assist Yan Rou in capturing the Lulong Fortress. Yan Rou is the main general. Yan Rou will lead his troops to capture the Lulong Fortress every day and night. It is not wrong to lead Yan Zhijin to guard the Shanggu Fortress, but there is any abnormal movement. He will order Xian Yufu to gather troops and horses, be cautious day and night, and strictly guard Ji County."
"promise!"
