: Chapter 267 : Turn left to right

When Jia Xu heard the words, he pondered for a while, and then said: "If you take Xu's opinion, you should go the east road."

Liu Zhang snorted, frowned and said, "How can you see that?"

Jia Xu said indifferently: "Although the West Road seems peaceful, it is actually in danger every step of the way. Not to mention the long distance, only the two big clans occupy the places it passes. Attachment, but there are still many scattered tribes under it who do not accept Wang Hua, and sometimes invade the frontiers. Moreover, the trend of attachment is also linked with Cao Cao, which is one of my disadvantages;

The Xiongnu are my great Han enemies, they have been attacked repeatedly, and now they are retreating to the Western Regions. However, during the chaos of Li Jue and Guo Si, they also made a move to come back. Although they were repelled by Gao and Zhang, if they go deep into the desert In the middle, if you don't know the way, if the enemy is dark, you will be clear, and we will follow the strategy of the other, which is a big taboo for military strategists!This disadvantage two;

Our army is no more than [-] today, and we will need to replenish many times during the long-distance journey, which is easy to expose the target.At that time, I am afraid that the supporting army will not arrive, and the enemy army will arrive first.Is there any one who marches thousands of miles and wins by working hard?The unfavorable three; [

When everything goes well, we will go back and forth from Yongliang to the Central Plains, or enter Wuyang from Jingxiang, or from Sichuan and Shu.Today, Jingbei is occupied by Cao Jun. If they pass Jingxiang, they need to raise soldiers from Yongliang or Hanzhong.In this way, the layout that the protagonist worked so hard to hide can no longer be concealed.If you don't pass through Jingxiang and take a detour, it will take a long time. Qingxu is in an enclave, and the dragons have no leader. It may be difficult to support the situation. It is not what Cao Yuan planned, and Sun Ce's place in Wu will have different ideas over time. This is disadvantageous. Four.

With these four disadvantages, it is not advisable to go west!

As for the situation on the east road, although there are many different races in the land, but because of the many, there are many entanglements with each other, and Gongsun Bogui is famous for being ruthless. , You can win or support, or take things from time to time, and you can get the benefits of the fisherman.This benefit is one;

The area of ​​the East Road is smaller than that of the West Road, and there are many tribes belonging to them, so there are few big clans to control them. Although I have five hundred troops, I raise the Han flag and shake them. If necessary, I will choose one or two small clans and kill them. Immediately, the power of deterrence can be received, and who dares to look at me?Facing it with prestige, breaking the enemy's courage, and subduing the enemy's soldiers without fighting, this is a great strategy.Its benefits are two;

The land of Liaodong will sooner or later be included in the territory of the lord. Now, by taking this trip, you can use the kingly way to caress it, or use it as a domineering prestige, and all of them will put up the name of the lord. If you plan it in the future, you will spread it as soon as you want. You can get twice the result with half the effort effect.This benefit three also;

Liu Bei has newly won Liaodong, and the hearts of the people are not attached, and the officers and men are suspicious. Although we are in it, first, there will be Gongsun in the front, which can confuse people's hearts. I can't get through, the army is not moving smoothly, how can I have the power to harm me everywhere?Therefore, walking through the east road may seem dangerous, but in fact it is not dangerous. Not only can you return to Qingzhou as soon as possible, but you can also use this to accumulate credit on the sea route.This four benefits too!

With these four benefits, is it true that the lord can't go east? "

Jia Xu sat in the tent and talked eloquently. The theory of four disadvantages and four advantages immediately made Liu Zhang clear the fog in front of him. He was overjoyed and bowed and said: "Wen He has great foresight, Zhang has been taught. I will follow Mr. , prepare the army tomorrow, and march eastward.”

With the strategy established, Liu Zhang immediately called Batu and ordered him to send out scouts to investigate the surrounding situation, and at the same time draw all the terrain, dangerous passes, mountains, rivers, and rivers in an atlas for reference.

After three days like this, all the preparations were completed, and the large army began to pull out, heading straight to the east.

On this day, during the journey, a scout suddenly came to report from the front. Twenty miles away, there were two parties fighting. It seemed that the scale was not large, each with about a hundred people.

Liu Zhang was slightly surprised. They marched for several days. Although they were extremely careful, the journey went smoothly. Sometimes they could see some tribes, but they were only twenty or thirty tents. , Nature lives in peace.

At this moment, when he suddenly heard that there was a fight, Liu Zhang didn't dare to be negligent, and while ordering to continue to investigate, he sent orders to start a battle formation and advance cautiously.

As the scouts continued to report back, when they were about to approach the battlefield, the situation had already been figured out.The two sides in the battle were not the usual tribal disputes, but seemed to be robbed by bandits, one side encircled the other with more than a hundred, and the besieged one seemed to be trying its best to protect a carriage.

Batu drove his horse forward, bowed and said: "Master, there are many horse bandits on the grasslands, who only rob travelers or small tribes. The light ones take money, and the serious ones slaughter clans and families. The methods are extremely vicious. Everyone in the grassland hates it. If we meet today, if we can reach out to help a group, we will surely reap some benefits."

Seeing that he was eager to try, Liu Zhang couldn't help laughing.These people are all fighters, and the fighting has almost penetrated into the bone marrow. After many days of idleness, their hands are probably itchy.

At the moment, he smiled noncommittally, and only asked everyone to get ready, but he drove his horse to a high hill to look around.

At this time, the distance from the battlefield was only a mile away, and coming with the wind, one could faintly hear the neighing of horses and people shouting, and there were screams from time to time, obviously the battle was still going on.

Liu Zhang boarded the hill and looked around, but he could see light flashing from time to time in the very distance. It was the sword reflected by the sunlight. It was still far away. Although he couldn't see it clearly, he could roughly distinguish it. One side is clearly at a disadvantage.It's just because there are few fights on the outside, all knights running around the field, rushing in from time to time, or shooting with bows. [

Liu Zhang made some calculations, and sure enough, there were not many people, so he was determined.It would be called an idiot not to pick up the cheap ones, but it would be outrageous to pick up the cheap ones in the name of justice.

Liu Yanei is not an idiot, but a promising young man with a heart full of justice. How can he let go of such a thing that can obviously bully others and reap benefits?Immediately send an order, the whole army will advance step by step, it must be determined by the first battle!

The sound of the drum suddenly rang out, and with the rumble of the war drum, the five hundred riders, like sharp swords drawn out of their sheaths, galloped straight towards the field like the momentum of Mount Tai.

No one knew, and neither did Liu Zhang, that his charge had inadvertently intervened in a big vortex, which also added countless wonderful things to his eastward journey.
