Chapter 394: Gongsun Chan goes south
∷ Reading Building.. /◎
Gongsun Chan hurried and hurried, and finally sorted out 50,000 cavalry, and when the 30,000 infantry began to march south, the time had already entered March, speaking of which, this was also a waste of time to gather more elite soldiers, but fortunately, the situation in Jizhou is basically stalemate now, which provides a very good buffer for Gongsun Zhan's delay
Starting from Yuyang County, the gathering place, through Jixian County and Zhuo County, it entered the Jizhou River, and when he walked here, Gongsun Zhan found that his logistics supply was terrible, and if he moved forward, the entire logistics channel was too long, and he had to pass through the territory of Liu Yu and the Yuan family, and he had no sense of security at all, so the situation of being controlled by others was very unpleasant
Gongsun Zhan unfolded the map and saw that he was now near Zheng County, close to the Shahe, and his old rival Fang Zhiwen was in Anguo, relying on the Shahe route for supplies, if he took Zheng County, it would be equivalent to putting a sleeve on Fang Zhiwen's neck, and he could also get a supply transfer station in Jizhou, which seemed to be a very beautiful thing, but now the war situation in Jizhou is concentrated in the south, and his supply station is in the north, in case his main force goes south, Zheng County will become a lonely army, Gongsun Chan understood Fang Zhiwen's character, at that time, if Fang Zhiwen didn't come to take Zheng County, Gongsun Chan was directly willing to take Fang Zhiwen's surname, pondering for a long time, Gongsun Chan shook his head helplessly, Fang Zhiwen dared to let Zheng County not occupy it, it was originally with this idea, he was not afraid that someone there would be stuck in his neck at all
However, if Gongsun Chan doesn't want to go to the south at all, but just wants to take advantage of Jizhou, then occupying the northern part of Hejian seems to be a good idea, now Yuan Shao's troops in Hejian are very few, and it is not enough to confront Gongsun Chan at all, as for Fang Zhiwen, he only has 20,000 troops, and it is impossible to directly fight with him
As long as he doesn't jam the Shahe route, Fang Zhiwen can't have an excuse to cut off the supply line behind him, on the other hand, if Liu Yu dares to cut off his supply line, he will put pressure on Fang Zhiwen, this place in Zheng County is really amazing
Gongsun Zhan figured out the wonders of Zheng County, naturally he would not let go of this place easily, and stationed his troops outside Zheng County, and then vaguely pressured the county commander of Zheng County to let him take refuge in himself
Zheng County, which has a population of more than 60,000, was taken down by Gongsun Chan so easily, which is really easy and happy
After taking Zheng County, Gongsun Zhan was no longer in a hurry to go south, but began to turn around and clear his back road, swallowing the two or three small county towns in the north of Zheng County one by one to make a posture of not leaving
After getting the news, Yuan Shao was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood, but he didn't expect Gongsun Chan to be a shameless guy like Fang Zhiwen, you know, Gongsun Chan is a guy who relies on the officials of his uncle's family to take the position, if it weren't for the support of the Youzhou clan, this thing would have been destroyed by Liu Yu or Fang Zhiwen a long time ago, who would have thought that this guy would not only not be grateful, but would directly attack his master if he had a little strength, such a wolf-hearted guy must be eradicated
It's just that now Yuan Shao is more than willing but not enough, Gongsun Chan has 80,000 elite troops in his hands who want to eradicate Gongsun Chan, what a price does it have to pay, and the fatal thing is that he has no righteous reputation for attacking, but Gongsun Chan is here to aid Jizhou and exterminate the righteousness of the Yellow Turban Thief, and take Zheng County just to have a place for transit materials, not to mention, Yuan Shao has no official position in Jizhou, what identity does he use to speak?
As for Lu Zhi and Han Fu, they can't speak, one of these two people is just urging Gongsun Chan to go south, and the other is watching the excitement with a gloating mood
In fact, the best way to deal with Gongsun Chan is to draw salary from the bottom of the kettle, if Liu Yu or Fang Zhiwen do it in Gongsun Chan's nest at the moment, it is estimated that this guy will have to retract quickly, the question is, how could Liu Yu and Fang Zhiwen do it to Gongsun Chan for no reason? Why are they doing these things if they don't have enough benefits?
And once they do it, it won't just be a matter of forcing Gongsun Chan to retreat, it's hard to say whether Gongsun Chan, who has returned to his hometown, will set off a war in Youzhou under his anger and shame, they must not take this risk, or rather, Yuan Shao can't afford to pay a price that is enough for them to take risks
Fang Zhiwen knew that Gongsun Chan was making a nest in Zheng County, so he just smiled faintly, while Tian Feng had an expression that was really like this, and there was even a hint of pride in his eyes that the conspiracy had succeeded, could it be that Zheng County was the trap that these two people deliberately left for Gongsun Chan?
Gongsun Zhan waited for two days with fear, and saw that all parties seemed to be blind to his actions, and finally let go of the apprehension in his heart, and sure enough, as he expected, this Zheng County was a wonderful key point beyond the reach of all parties, as if it was born to exist for himself to occupy
Gongsun Chan is the first step to stand firm in Jizhou, his heart is very happy, and he arranged a banquet to celebrate with his subordinates in the evening, for Lu Zhi's urging, Gongsun Chan completely ignored it, and only then did he enter Jizhou and take the territory of Zheng County, he still needs to digest it well, and then think about the next step, on the other hand, he is waiting, waiting for a letter from the center
Gongsun Zhan picked meat from the bowl of the Yuan family, and he always had no idea how the Yuan family would react, he believed that this time the Yuan family did not have an immediate attack, so he acquiesced to his behavior, and what he needed to pay was just a subsequent exchange condition
The reason why the Yuan family is willing to suffer this dumb loss is completely because of their own strength, if the number of troops in their hands is insufficient, I am afraid that the Yuan family's army will immediately come to expel them
Therefore, Gongsun Chan is now a staunch supporter of the theory of the supremacy of power, which makes his confidence and ambition unprecedentedly high, he really wants to see what kind of condition the Yuan family will expel him, as for whether he will do it, can he accept this condition, and will it be beneficial to himself?
"Lord, do you think Gongsun Chan will go south to participate in the Battle of Guangping?" Tian Feng stared at the map, his fingers seemed to move aimlessly on the map, and suddenly stopped in Zheng County and asked
"Definitely, if it is an order from the imperial court, even if it is a gesture, he must go, and he must go in person, but it is difficult to say how many troops he will bring"
Fang Zhiwen stood beside Tian Feng with a teacup and replied casually
"Why did I have to go for the sake of righteousness?"
"Not only that, because in the future, those who will gather in Quang Binh are all heroes from all sides, not only risks, but also interests, he will naturally go to the town in person, just like us, don't you want to go?"
Tian Feng smiled: "Of course I want to go, I naturally don't want to miss this kind of scene"
"That's right, that's the truth"
"Then Yuan Shao won't go?"
"Of course, Yuan Shao on the bright side is still guarding filial piety in the capital at the moment, this is not a joke"
"Well, so, will Yuan Shao teach Gongsun Chan a lesson in Zheng County?"
"Hehe, this matter depends on the strength of Gongsun Chan left behind in Zheng County, if there are fewer troops, it will inevitably be cleaned up by Yuan Shao, but Gongsun Chan now has no shortage of troops at hand, and Zheng County is relying on the Shahe River, even if Yuan Shao bypasses Zheng County and cuts off Gongsun Chan's northern logistics channel, this scoundrel Gongsun Chan will definitely threaten us to use Shahe to help him provide supplies, otherwise he will cut off the route of Shahe"
The expression on Fang Zhiwen's face seemed to be smiling, and he didn't know what he was thinking, Tian Feng narrowed his eyes and asked, "Are we going to let him threaten?" ”
Fang Zhiwen pouted: "What's this, as long as he is willing to pay the price, who are we selling our materials to, the cargo ships on our route always have to work to make money, what's wrong with having one more customer?" ”
Tian Feng grinned, it turned out that the lord really had this idea, did he do business a little crazy?
"Lord, I'm afraid Yuan Shao won't give up"
Tian Feng's words were not only a reminder, but also deliberately found a problem for Fang Zhiwen, wanting to embarrass Fang Zhiwen, to be honest, Tian Feng also wanted to know how far his lord's intelligence would go
Who knew that Fang Zhiwen smiled weirdly and said: "Isn't that a military advisor you, you come to help me think about it, how to deal with Yuan Shao's intimidation?" ”
Tian Feng smiled bitterly, is this a lifting stone to hit his own feet? The lord's intelligence is really unfathomable and thick-skinned than the city wall, this kind of person is invincible
It's just that as a military advisor's sacrificial wine, since the lord has already spoken, Tian Feng has to answer seriously
"This matter is not difficult, if Yuan Shao intimidates us, we will tell the truth, as long as Yuan Shao can ensure the smooth passage of the Shahe River, we will never supply to Gongsun Zhan, or send supplies for Gongsun Zhan, this matter has nothing to do with us, okay."
"Hehe, this statement is very shameless, but it's good, I like it, just say it to Yuan Shao when the time comes, I really want to see what Yuan Shao's expression was when he heard this
"What other expressions can there be, they must be furious, and then they have to pinch their noses and admit it, and then, it is estimated that someone will give him an idea to turn this bad thing into a good thing, and sell their old grain to Gongsun Chan at a high price."
Fang Zhiwen was stunned for a moment, then thought about the people around Yuan Shao, and immediately understood that the situation predicted by Tian Feng would definitely appear, and couldn't help but laugh in his heart, and at the same time he was happy about Tian Feng's progress, Tian Feng finally began to understand the importance of calculating human nature, a strategist who can't calculate human nature is definitely not a qualified strategist
Although Tian Feng used to have high intelligence and accurate calculations, he lacked an understanding of human nature, and since he took over the work of the General Staff Department, especially the intelligence work, his understanding of human nature can be regarded as entering the door, and then, with superb intelligence, are you afraid that you will not be able to progress?
Through today's incident, Fang Zhiwen was finally relieved to see that Tian Feng was already a qualified and fast-growing strategist to be continued.
