In order to be able to carry out encirclement and suppression in the future, it is necessary to make sufficient preparations.
this day.
Xu Ding held a meeting.
Those who came to the parliament were all senior generals in the army.
"Bingzhou was taken back by us. It was a happy thing. But I can't be happy. I believe everyone knows that Liu Bei escaped. He took away [-] elites and may attack us at any time. Bingzhou, Youzhou , Jizhou, are all within his attack range."
Xu Ding sat down slowly, took a deep breath and said, "The Central Plains has not yet settled down, and Cao Cao and Sun Jian are still our great enemies. Therefore, our army cannot stay here forever. We need to return to the Central Plains to help in the war. So who wants to stay in Bingzhou? "
"This."
None of the generals dared to take over.
Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang are used to fighting, and they have [-] elite soldiers in their hands. Once they go out of the mountain, even if they have an army of [-], they may not be able to stop them.And encirclement and suppression in the mountains is courting death.
"Why, you don't want to stay in Bingzhou?" Xu Ding frowned.
At this time Guan Yu came out and said, "Your Majesty, the general is willing to stay behind."
"Your Hebei field army isn't all that large. It's hard to defend Jizhou. How can you defend Bingzhou again?" Xu Ding didn't agree: "You should go to Ye County and defend Jizhou."
"Yes."
Guan Yu stepped aside.
Xu Ding got up and said: "Since you are not willing to take over, then I will call the roll call, and whoever is called will be the one."
"Huang Zhong."
"The end is here."
Xu Ding said: "You will lead the Central Plains Field Army to defend Bingzhou temporarily."
Huang Zhongdao: "Your Majesty, the last general is willing to stay in Bingzhou. But what about the Central Plains? Cao Cao and Sun Jian have not been wiped out yet. Your Majesty has no soldiers available."
"You don't have to worry about it."
Xu Ding said: "Defending Bingzhou, Jizhou, and Youzhou is the most important thing at present. You guard Bingzhou, Guan Yu guards Jizhou, Cheng Yu and Lu Bu guard Youzhou. I will send orders to all counties and counties to recruit soldiers, all of which will be under your command. The specific number , It is decided according to the population and grain of each state. It will be implemented after being reported to Xu County for approval."
"I have no other requirements for you, only one thing, guard the states and counties, and don't let Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang snatch the food!"
"promise."
The generals answered.
Guo Jia is also worried: "General Han Sheng is right. The Central Plains has not been settled, Cao Cao and Sun Jian are still resisting, and there are various princes, vacillating. If Your Majesty keeps the Central Plains Field Army in Bingzhou, will it affect the overall situation? ?”
Xu Ding said: "Then what do you say?"
"I do have an idea, but I'm afraid His Majesty won't." Guo Jia hesitated.
"Go ahead."
"Yes."
Guo Jia said: "If we want to destroy Liu Bei, we have to lure the snake out of the hole. We dispatched all the troops in Jizhou, and went to Bingzhou to pretend to encircle and suppress Liu Bei. There are hundreds of thousands of grains in Jizhou, so Liu Bei cannot be unmoved. Wait until he leads the army. Go to Yecheng, and we will mobilize heavy troops to encircle and suppress. Jizhou is different from Bingzhou, it is far away from Taihang Mountain, we only need [-] cavalry to seal the exit, and he will definitely die."
"You mean to give Jizhou to Liu Bei?"
"Yes. To be precise, it is Yecheng."
Guo Jia's suggestion made Xu Ding's eyes brighten, and he said, "If I leave [-] elite troops in Yecheng and defend them for a few days, it shouldn't be a problem, and within these few days, our cavalry will definitely arrive. In this way, Liu Bei will not be able to get Jizhou, and will be surrounded by us."
Guo Jia said: "Your Majesty, Ye City can't keep troops. Especially the elite, otherwise Liu Bei won't be fooled. Don't forget, Zhuge Liang is his military advisor. How can he not see the mystery of this?"
"Only when Jizhou is really empty and he is short of food, can he be lured out."
Huang Zhongdao: "Your Majesty, the general thinks Feng Xiao's words are reasonable, so you might as well give it a try. If you can eliminate Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang in one fell swoop, you won't have to deploy heavy troops to guard Hebei in the future."
"it is good."
Xu Ding said: "Just follow the plan of filial piety, and give him a way to lure the snake out of the hole!"
In the next few days, Xu Ding sent a large number of troops to block the roads on the border of Taiyuan, and sent troops to explore the mountains symbolically.At the same time, all the troops in Jizhou, including some important towns, were ordered to abandon their defenses and go to Bingzhou to listen to the order.
In this way, Jizhou's troops were empty.
The army pretended to search in Bingzhou, preparing to attack Taihang Mountain.
"Your Majesty, after the emptiness of Jizhou, the bait was thrown out, but to encircle and suppress Liu Bei, it is necessary to send troops to sneak into Jizhou. I suggest that General Gan Ning come back. His navy is fast, and he can reach Pingyuan County in two days. From Landing on the plain, you can go straight to the flank of Wei County. Then let the [-] infantry troops sent by Cheng Yu stand guard in Zhongshan Kingdom, don't make any moves for now."
Guo Jia pointed to the map and said: "And we are building a few big camps in Bingzhou. On the surface, we are preparing for the attack on the mountain. In fact, we will secretly transfer the elite to Jizhou. After Liu Bei appears, we will quickly block the exit of Taihang Mountain."
"Okay, everything will be done as you said." Xu Ding immediately agreed.
at this time.
Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang have already entered the mountain.
It is very difficult for an army of [-] to survive in the lush forest.
Fortunately, Zhuge Liang had the foresight to bring food and grass for several months, so he didn't have to worry about it for the time being.
At the junction of Bingzhou, Youzhou, and Jizhou, they chose a flat terrain as their base camp.Under Zhuge Liang's command, more than a dozen camps were built.
Distribute the troops within a radius of hundreds of miles.
It is helpless to do so.
There are too many troops, it is impossible to hoard them in one place, they can only be spread out.
Fortunately, the troops entering the mountain are all Liu Bei's direct descendants, and they are absolutely loyal to Liu Bei.Even if they spread out to garrison, they will obey Liu Bei's military orders.
"Kong Ming, you still chose to go into the mountains." After Liu Bei woke up, he was very dissatisfied with Zhuge Liang's doing so.
"My lord, punish the crime." Zhuge Liang bowed down.
"Forget it." Liu Bei took a deep breath and said, "We have already entered the mountain, and it is useless to regret it. It is even useless to blame you. Let's think about what to do in the future. I will say what I said before, and I must capture Bingzhou Yes, I hope you can help me!"
Zhuge Liang got up and said: "Please rest assured, my lord, I will make my wish come true. When Xu Ding's army withdraws from Bingzhou, we will go back. Jinyang still belongs to my lord."
"Ah."
For several days in a row, Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei were building camps and controlling the entire area of a hundred miles.Build some roads that can be marched in case he prepares for the Sunrise Mountain plunder.
"Sir, I just received the news that Xu Ding has transferred all of Jizhou's troops to Bingzhou, and Youzhou has also been transferred [-] troops. They are blocking the roads in Bingzhou and looking for us. I guess they want to gather troops and go into the mountains to encircle and suppress them." I suddenly have an idea, and I want you to think it over for me." Liu Bei found Zhuge Liang.
