Chapter 706: Xu Shu's Analysis
The next day, Liu Bei and Chen Gong reached an agreement and agreed to send troops to attack Wang Can.
Liu Bei agreed so readily, which made Chen Gong feel a trace of loss in his heart. Because he knew that Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were resolutely opposed to sending troops to attack Wang Can, and Liu Bei Li agreed to send troops against public opinion, it must have been because the conversation yesterday afternoon had played a role, prompting Liu Bei to readily agree.
Chen Gong completed the task, but the feeling of loss in his heart became more and more intense.
This feeling was indescribable, which made Chen Gong's heart a little irritable.
However, after Chen Gong completed the task, there were other things, and he didn't have too much time to think about the matter between him and Liu Bei, so he directly said goodbye to Liu Bei and prepared to leave Runan.
When Chen Gong left, Liu Bei personally sent Chen Gong out of the city.
This time, Liu Bei and Chen Gong sat in the same carriage, and there was no situation where Liu Bei drove the carriage.
However, after sending Chen Gong to the city gate, Liu Bei sent it for a few more miles before stopping, and did not continue to send it again.
Guan Yu was wearing a green robe, rode a horse and stood beside Liu Bei, and said, "Big brother, once Lu Bu is killed, there is a certain chance that Chen Gong will be subdued." β
When Zhang Fei heard this, he also looked at Liu Bei intently, looking forward to Liu Bei's reply.
Liu Bei was confident, twisted the short beard under his chin, and said with a smile: "Ten percent sure!" β
After finishing speaking, Liu Bei turned around and walked back.
After Guan Yu and Zhang Fei heard this, they looked stunned. Under the winter sun, the golden light fell on Liu Bei, looking dazzling and sacred, calm and confident. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei looked at Liu Bei's returning figure, and they were stunned for a while. Now, their eldest brother speaks so confidently and sonorously, this is their eldest brother.
Under the bright sun, the group returned to Runan City.
β¦β¦
"Boom!"
The wheels turned, and the carriage moved quickly.
In the carriage, Chen Gong closed his eyes and recuperated, while the people driving outside the carriage were Chen Gong's entourage and Chen Gong's domestic servants. As for the soldiers accompanying Chen Gong, they are also Chen Gong's guards and are absolutely loyal.
Chen Gong's entourage asked, "Master, we have completed the task, why are you unhappy?" β
Along the way, Chen Gong's face looked a little dignified, which made the entourage puzzled.
Chen Gong said lightly: "If you don't understand, don't ask, drive well, we have to rush to Wancheng." β
"No!"
The attendant touched his nose, looked embarrassed, and immediately stopped talking. He sat quietly on the wheel, brandished his horsewhip, and drove in the direction of Wancheng.
After Chen Gong left Runan, he had to go to Wancheng.
To attack Wang Can, it is natural that the more princes there are, the better.
Liu Bei promised to send troops to attack Wang Can, and Chen Gong naturally hoped that Zhang Xiu could also join, as long as these two princes participated in the army, the chances of defeating Wang Can were much greater, so Wang Can had to go.
It is up to people to plan things, and it is up to heaven to make things happen.
Chen Gong didn't care if he could succeed in completing this, he just did his best.
When Chen Gong arrived in Wancheng, Zhang Xiu politely received Chen Gong and set up a banquet to entertain him. It's just that Zhang Xiu didn't mention the attack on Wang Can at the banquet, and Chen Gong proposed to attack Wang Can, Zhang Xiu immediately played sloppy, and then changed the topic, or simply avoided answering, unwilling to involve the attack on Wang Can.
Zhang Xiu and Wang Can were at war, knowing that Wang Can was fine.
Wang Can not only has Guo Jia and Xun You, but also Li Ru and Jia Xu, these four people are first-class strategists, full of strategies, and they are not easy to defeat.
Zhang Xiu also got the news that Jia Xu and Li Ru had lost consecutive battles, but he didn't believe it.
With Jia Xu and Li Ru's ability, it is impossible to be so unbearable.
What's more, even if Li Ru and Jia Xu were defeated, plus Xun You and Guo Jia were also defeated, Wang Can just lost Guanzhong and didn't have any losses. After the army retreated, Wang Can was able to take all his troops back to Hanzhong and hold Yizhou. In this way, even if Yuan Shao and Cao Cao joined forces, it would be difficult to attack Yizhou, so Zhang Xiu had no intention of sending troops.
Chen Gong wanted to persuade Zhang Xiu, but in the face of a hedgehog curled up, he had no way to start. After staying in Wancheng for two days, Chen Gong did not make the slightest progress.
Two days later, Chen Gong returned in vain and went to Shangyong City.
β¦β¦
Hanzhong County, Nanzheng County.
After Wang Can's army arrived in Hanzhong, the soldiers were handed over to Gan Ning, LΓΌ Meng and others for training, and Wang Can and Xu Shu began to collect and analyze the news that came to Hanzhong and make ways to deal with it.
At the beginning of the war, Wang Can arranged to play a huge role in the hero buildings in various states.
As soon as there is any movement, it will come continuously.
When Wang Can and Xu Shu were discussing things, there was a knock on the door outside the study.
"Come in!"
Wang Can shouted, and after the voice fell, a soldier walked in quickly with a note and respectfully handed it to Wang Can. Wang Can took the note, and after reading it carefully, the expression on his face suddenly became solemn, because the news on the note was the news about Chen Gong's envoy to Runan.
After Wang Can read it, he handed the note to Xu Shu.
After a while, Xu Shu also finished reading the news.
Wang Can waved his hand and sent the soldiers away, and said: "Yuan Zhi, we don't know the result of Chen Gong's envoy to Runan, but if Liu Bei agrees to come down and also send troops to join this war, the situation of Shangyong will change again." β
Xu Shu smiled and said, "Don't worry, the lord has three fierce generals, Zhang Ren, Chen Dao, and Zhou Tai, as well as Fa Zheng, who presides over the overall situation, which is enough to deal with the army of Yuan Shu, Lu Bu and Liu Bei." Even if Liu Bei led a large army to join it, at most it would add some soldiers, so there was nothing to worry about. β
Wang Can said worriedly: "Yuan Zhi, Liu Bei has two tiger generals, and his martial arts are not weaker than Lu Bu. One is Guan Yu, the other is Zhang Fei, these two people have the courage of ten thousand people, if the two plus Lu Bu, these three people attack Shangyong City, but it is three tigers down the mountain, it is difficult to resist! β
Xu Shu has dealt with all aspects of the news in the past few days, and he also knows about Liu Bei.
He smiled and said, "From the humble point of view, Shangyong City has no need to worry at all. β
Wang Can raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why?" β
Xu Shu said: "Guan Yu and Zhang Fei have strong temperaments, and they are angry about Lu Bu's Xuzhou where Liu Bei took Liu Bei, and it is impossible to cooperate with Lu Bu." Moreover, Yuan Shu was born in a wealthy family, and he looked down on Liu Bei who was named a royal family from the bottom of his heart, and they united on the surface, but there must be friction in secret, such an alliance was like a coalition of princes back then, each with its own thoughts, and it was difficult to achieve great things. β
After a pause, Xu Shu said again: "Fa Zhengshan has a strange plan, and there are two wise generals Chen Zhi and Zhang Ren, plus Zhou Tai is brave and powerful, I believe that the humble position is enough to keep the mediocrity, and the lord is waiting for the news." β
Wang Can thought about it carefully, and finally nodded.
If he wants to hone Fa Zheng, Chen Zhi and Zhang Ren, he must let them stand alone.
It is best to defeat the army of Liu Bei, Yuan Shu and Lu Bu, and even if it is defeated, Wang Can can still raise troops to rescue. Although such a big battle poses a great threat, it is also a great opportunity to train troops, generals, and strategists.
Wang Can made up his mind and immediately shouted, "Someone! β
The voice fell, and a soldier ran in, waiting for Wang Can's orders.
Wang Can ordered: "Immediately inform Fa Zheng, saying that Liu Bei may send troops to attack Shangyong City, let him be careful and vigilant, as for how to deal with it, let him make his own decisions, and there is no need to report it." β
Wang Can passed the news to Fa Zheng, and gave Fa Zheng the right to make decisions freely.
The purpose of doing this is naturally to hone Fa Zheng and the others. There is only so much Wang Can can do, and the specific things have to be decided by Fa Zheng himself.
