Three hundred and ninetieth chapters insist on walking the periphery

[The chapter number of the previous chapter is wrong, it should be Chapter 391, but why can't the chapter number be changed? What a strange management program!!! It's an idiot!]

"Okay, this matter is arranged like this. If the plague has further progress, we will discuss it at any time. Let's talk about the military and political situation in Jizhou now. Xiangxiang, it's up to you to tell you about it."

"Oh!" Xiangxiang responded, stood up and walked to the edge of the map, stretched out her fleshy little finger and pointed at the map and said, "Although there are signs of plague in Jizhou, the war has not stopped. I will introduce the situation in Jizhou from north to south to you. First, Lu Bu of Bingzhou, who led 30,000 Bingzhou troops, who have already moved from north to south, will arrive near Shangquyang in the next two days and meet Liu Yu, and form a confrontation with the Yellow Turban Army in Shangquyang. However, it is estimated that their will to fight is not strong, otherwise they would not have entered Jizhou until now. Moreover, 30,000 people are OK in field battles, but siege is insufficient. Especially now, Shangquyang has been promoted to a third-level town. It is absolutely a dream to rely on 30,000 people to capture it. Therefore, we estimate that there is no chance of a big fight in Shangquyang. Then it is me.

The front line of Anguo and Lu Nu is now very stable, so I won’t talk about it anymore. Then there is Tao and Xindu. After Yuan Shao obtained Xindu, he lost the attack. He is still repairing Xindu and has begun to repair and strengthen the construction of Xindu. At the same time, he will move the troops to Tangyang and Fucheng in the northwest, and only a small-scale attempt will penetrate into Julu. From Yuan Shao’s actions, it can be seen that like Han Fu, he did not intend to rush into Julu County as a pioneer. On the contrary, he has greater energy on the rectification in the rear. Many county officials in Bohai, Hejian, Pingyuan and Leling have changed. Looking at Han Fu, he seems to be doing something similar to Yuan Shao. They are using the damage caused by the Yellow Turban Army to strengthen their control of their territory."

Xiangxiang finished talking about the general situation in Jizhou in one breath, but she left behind the most popular Guangping battlefield without talking about it. This is to put the exciting ones behind.

"In the end, there is only the most lively Guangping battlefield. After the Guangping defense general was replaced, he changed the past turtle tactics and fought a raid battle with Lu Zhi. On the other hand, on the logistics channel from Julu to Guangping, Chu Feiyan imitated Lu Zhi's method and established a series of fortresses. On the one hand, he protected the smooth flow of the logistics channel, and on the other hand, he could also provide supplies and support to the Yiren troops in the Yellow Turban camp. These two measures can be said to have completely reversed the one-sided situation on the Guangping battlefield, especially the logistics raid battle. The Yellow Turban Army used its cavalry troops to give full play to the backbone advantages of the cavalry. Integrated Yiren's cavalry troops, and cooperated with the main force of the Yellow Turban Army to fight several consecutive victories, which greatly restricted Lu Zhi's logistics supply capacity, causing Lu Zhi's cage tactics to be postponed indefinitely. This is quite fatal to Lu Zhi... etc.." Zhao Yun raised his hand to interrupt Xiangxiang's story.

Xiangxiang asked with a smile: "What are your questions about Brother Zilong?"

Zhao Yun asked slightly ashamed: "Why... why would the long-term battle have a fatal impact on Lu Zhi? Guangping's situation is very obvious and it is impossible to achieve it overnight. If the official army is eager to achieve success, it may lead to failure. Lu Zhi's tactical choice is not wrong. Use time to wipe out the Yellow Turban Army, and finally turn Guangping into an isolated city, turning passive to active. This should be correct?"

"That's right!" Xiangxiang nodded vigorously.

"Since the tactical choice is right, as long as Lu Zhi waits for the Xiliang cavalry or our cavalry to arrive, will it be possible to change the current unfavorable situation?! The problem with Lu Zhi is not that his tactics are wrong, but that he lacks a powerful cavalry unit. Even if not, as long as the number of logistics troops is enlarged, it is enough to resist the cavalry of the Yellow Turban Army. Or the strategies of setting ambush, luring the enemy, etc. are adopted, the cage tactic can still be implemented. It's just that it takes a little more time. Yun Wu doesn't understand why this will have a fatal impact on Lu Zhi?"

After Zhao Yun finished speaking, he looked at Fang Zhiwen with some guilt and found that Fang Zhiwen was indeed smiling badly. Then he looked at the military advisor. Tian Feng had no special expression, but Li Xueyin looked sympathetic.

Xiangxiang was about to answer Zhao Yun, but Fang Zhiwen suddenly spoke out: "Xiangxiang, have you finished introducing the situation?"

Xiangxiang nodded in surprise and looked at Fang Zhiwen for no reason. Fang Zhiwen smiled and handed a look waiting for the show.

Then he turned to Zhao Yun and said, "Zilong, let's not talk about Lu Zhi's problem for now. I will explain it to you later. Now I want to ask Zilong. From your words just now, you seem to think that as long as Lu Zhi continues to implement this cage tactic, his victory in Guangping will be irresistible? So if you are the leader of the Yellow Turban Army, what should you do when facing Lu Zhi's tactic? How can you win this battle?"

Zhao Yun frowned and thought, looking at the drawings hanging on one side from time to time. Lu Zhi's layout is indeed solid and ordinary, but the more ordinary the tactics, the more difficult it is to crack. Just like a dignified decisive battle, it can only rely on his own real strength. However, there is a saying in the art of war that "use the right combination to win with a strange combination". Lu Zhi's move is a perfect combination. If you want to win, you can only win by surprise. The question is, where is this strange?

Taishi Zhaorong and Zhen Xiang were also thinking about this issue. As a general who led the troops, if he only had the battle formation, he would have to wait. The general should be able to fight and win, defend and be at ease, be able to stand on his own and appease the people on his side. This is a qualified general.

However, Fang Zhiwen's problem is not simple. Although the Guangping Yellow Turban Army has been quite active recently and has won several battles, it does not damage the strength of the official army at all. As long as Lu Zhi's tactics are slightly adjusted, they can still be implemented, at most they are slower. So how can we break the current adverse situation and defeat Lu Zhi?

Zhao Yun thought for a long time before he started to speak: "Snatch Guangzong!"

Fang Zhiwen exchanged a look with Tian Feng and asked with a smile: "Why should we seize Guangzong? Moreover, Guangzong is now stationed by the official army. Although it is not a powerful main combat force, it is afraid that it will not be able to take it down with the strength of Guangping Yellow Turbans for a while. If Lu Zhi turned around and attacked, the Yellow Turbans would be in a catastrophe. Moreover, you cannot guarantee that Nangong Hanfu's troops will not go south to participate in the war."

Zhao Yun seemed to have a mature idea. As soon as Fang Zhiwen finished speaking, Zhao Yun immediately replied: "Attacking Guangzong is a test-making move, and see how the opponent can handle it. If Lu Zhi sends troops to attack, Guangping can break the camps under the city. If Lu Zhi does not return to attack, but lets Nangong's defenders go south. Han Fu is afraid that he will not be willing to go forward to be cannon fodder by himself, nor will he hand Nangong over to Yuan Shao so easily. If they don't care, then I will take Guangzong directly. Guangzong is only a hundred miles away from Quzhou. After taking Guangzong, he will hire Yiren to transport all the population to Quzhou or Julu."

"General Zilong wants to move the battlefields of both sides eastward, at least attract the Yiren troops to the direction of Guangzong?" Tian Feng asked, stroking his beard.

"Yes, the cage tactics either forcefully defeat it from the middle. Or they will attack the enemy on the outside and save it, or divert attention. Guangzong is just a medium, a bait that attracts Lu Zhi's attention."

Zhao Yun's voice was strong and he seemed full of confidence. Fang Zhiwen nodded in appreciation, but the words in his mouth were very shocking: "Zilong has a good idea, but unfortunately we can only use your idea. Can the Yellow Turban Army use it?"

"Master. Why is this?" Zhen Xiang's mouth was the fastest and immediately interrupted and asked everyone's questions. Of course, this person does not include Tian Feng.

"Haha, because of combat effectiveness! The cavalry units of the Yellow Turban Army, plus the Yi Ren's troops, even hire Yi Ren's long-range troops to capture Guangzong with 30,000 defenders. It may not be easy. If the method of infiltrating the civilians and then breaking the city from within, the government might have the possibility of success in the past. Now in wartime, Guangzong is not far from the front line. So it may not be easy to use this trick."

Fang Zhiwen's words stunned Zhao Yun. He did not think about the attack power of the Yellow Turban Army just now, but calculated it based on the attack power of his own troops.

Fang Zhiwen glanced at everyone and continued, "And, if I were Lu Zhi, I would definitely pretend to send troops to attack Guangzong's attack troops and set up a trap in the camp. I might even be able to break Guangping in one fell swoop?"

Zhao Yun was dumbfounded, everyone looked at it. Thinking about it carefully, there were indeed quite a lot of loopholes in Zhao Yun's seemingly perfect plan, and even if he really took down Guangzong, there were still many attack methods that might be exploited by his opponents, because Guangzong was not a very important place, especially for Lu Zhi, and he would think that Guangzong was only Han Fu. In fact, even if Guangzong fell, Han Fu's army in Nangong County could still provide supplies and support to Nangong from Dongwu City in Qinghe County.

Zhao Yun would not feel any displeasure because his proposal was rejected. He was just a little ashamed. In terms of wisdom, Zhao Yun still has self-knowledge.

"Lord, Yun can only think of this. What if the lord came to preside over the Battle of Guangping of the Yellow Turban Army?"

Fang Zhiwen smiled with a hint: "This is related to Zilong's problem just now. If we jump out of the limitations of the battle, we will find that the way to get rid of the opponent's head coach is not necessarily to kill him on the battlefield, or to send a beheading team to kill the opponent. We can also take advantage of the internal discord between the opponent and use counter-espionage strategies! As long as the war is delayed and the people who are dissatisfied with Lu Zhi will naturally have the excuse to take Lu Zhi. If we can add fuel to the fire, then great achievements will be expected. The spreading plague is the oil on the fire. Therefore, it is good to attack Guangzong now, attack Guangnian, Anhe, or even attack Quliang and Yecheng. Anyway, no matter how rampant it is, it is not to ask for any great results, but to make the momentum bigger, Lu Zhi will be dismissed in a blink of an eye."

Zhao Yun suddenly realized, and couldn't help feeling a little numb. For the wise men of the lord and military advisor, there was still a big gap between them and those of him were also likely to be plotted by others at any time. In the future, you must be careful and never make plans for the other party's advisers. At the same time, Zhao Yun also felt a sense of gratitude. Fortunately, his lord was smart enough and had a very honest personality, so he should not have a tragedy similar to that of Lu Zhi.

"Okay, everyone knows the situation around us. Now we have to talk about what we should do." Fang Zhiwen waved his hand and easily shifted the topic. (To be continued) rq
