Chapter 443 Schedule
Immediately afterwards, Cui Yan also stood up and expressed his opinion.

He did not state the pros and cons, but analyzed it from the perspective of the world structure.

After all, there are not only Jizhou and Xuzhou in the Han Dynasty, but now the princes are divided, and if one is not careful, it will affect the embarrassing situation of the whole body. Once the war is stalemate, it is not yet known whether the princes of Yanzhou and the remaining Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou will take advantage of the fire.

The three of them took turns to talk about the disadvantages, almost frightened Liu Bei, and the thought of being bewitched by Guo Jia before going to war also faded away, so he shook his head helplessly.

This battle seems impossible to fight!

The scene was one-sided. After Guo Jia looked around, he found that he couldn't find a teammate.

As for those Xuzhou generals who intend to go to war, do you expect them to end up confronting Tian Feng and the other three?
Jia Xu and Jushou were absent, and Xun You was paralyzed, making Guo Jia very passive and alone.

After looking around, Guo Jia finally aimed his gaze at Lin Chao who had been silent all this time, and shouted, "Zi Chu, why didn't you say a word when discussing important matters today?"

Brother Zichu, brother can't stand it anymore, please help.

Hearing this, Liu Bei is also interested, but his most important right-hand man has not expressed his opinion yet.

"Zi Chu, what do you think?"

When Guo Jia opened his mouth, Lin Chao could ignore him, but when Liu Bei spoke, Lin Chao had to answer.

Lin Chao stood up, first cupped his hands at Liu Bei, then took out a marching map and hung it on the stone slab.

Seeing this, Xun Yu's expressions changed slightly.

What do you mean, Lin Zichu also agreed to send troops?
Tian Feng has even summoned up his energy and is ready to have a verbal battle with Lin Chao.

After Lin Chao hung up the marching map in an orderly manner, he said: "Mr. Xuande, the court's opinion is that you can fight or not. But you must show your attitude."

Hearing this, everyone was puzzled.

Lin Chao didn't show off, and continued to speak: "The pros and cons of this battle have been explained very clearly by you just now, so I won't repeat them. It's just that Yuan Benchu ​​killed Jizhou Mu Hanwen Festival without authorization. You can't sit idly by. For the current plan, you should immediately go to the emperor, state the pros and cons, and request to send troops to Jizhou to put things right."

"But with Xuzhou's current food and grass, we can support..."

After listening to Lin Chao's words, Tian Feng began to speak impatiently, but was interrupted by Lin Chao smiling and waving.

"Yuan Hao, don't be impatient. You haven't finished a certain sentence, so why worry about it?" Lin Chao said with a smile, "It is necessary to send troops to Jizhou, but how many troops to send, whether to fight for real or just for show, is ultimately up to us to decide." It counts."

Hearing this, everyone vaguely understood what Lin Chao meant.

Yuan Shao's actions this time can indeed label him a treason.As a clan member of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bei really couldn't wait and see the changes, otherwise it would greatly damage the prestige of the court in the long run.

Therefore, even if it is just a show, it will definitely send troops.Not only to maintain the prestige of the imperial court, but also to leave an excellent excuse for when the soldiers actually send troops to Jizhou in the future.

Yuan Shao is rebellious, it is only right and proper for me to hit you, although I have not hit you this time, but I can use this excuse to punish you at any time in the future.

Furthermore, Yuan Shao's foothold is not yet stable, and it is impossible to take the initiative to attack Xuzhou. This is what Lin Chao said, and Xuzhou has the final say whether to fight or not.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Lin Chao said again: "Yuan Benchu ​​has a very high reputation, and most of the world's princes are on good terms with him. If we send troops to Jizhou at this time, we will inevitably suffer from elbow and armpits. Please take a look..."

As he said that, Lin Chao pointed to the place where Taishan County was located on the marching map, and said: "If you send troops, you must cross the plain from Mount Tai, and then attack Qinghe County in the hinterland of Jizhou. Although the battle line is not long, Mount Tai is close to Jibei after all. Bao Yuncheng, the prefect of Jinbei, has always followed Yuan Benchu's lead, how could he sit idly by?

If Yuan Benchu ​​orders Bao Yuncheng to take advantage of the situation and cut off our army's supplies, the attacking army will become a lone army and will undoubtedly be defeated!

Furthermore, the Taishan thieves Zang Ba, Yin Li, Wu Dun and others have gathered troops in Qidi, and they have at least [-] to [-] troops under their command. If they take advantage of the situation and come to fight the autumn wind, how should we respond?
If these two problems are not resolved, sending troops to Jizhou will be nothing but falsehood after all. "

Qiao Mao, the prefect of Dongjun, is dead, and Liu Dai, the former governor of Yanzhou, is now dancing happily in Chang'an.So Yanzhou is now in a state of disunity, but Bao Xin, the prefect of Jibei, Yuan Yi, the prefect of Shanyang, and others all have their hearts on Yuan Shao, and they sent troops before they were dealt with, which was tantamount to fighting on two fronts.

What's more, Zang Ba's hair is also staring at him, making Xuzhou in a dilemma.

There are people on both sides who will backstab you at any time, you have to go past these two to fight Yuan Shao, if one fails, the whole army will be wiped out.That's right, that's not counting the restless old Cao Pengcheng.

Therefore, it is the right way to concentrate on development now. When the soldiers and food are sufficient, with Xuzhou's strength, they will not be afraid to fight on three fronts.

But as Guo Jia said, with such a god-given opportunity, it would be a pity not to fight.

Lin Chao's words caused everyone to be very confused, and they were even more undecided.

Liu Bei simply spread his hands and asked, "Then what should we do based on our first opinion?"

Hearing this, Lin Chao picked up the charcoal pencil again, tore off the marching map covered on the slate, and wrote directly on it.After a while, Lin Chao threw down the charcoal pencil and began to point to the blackboard to draw key points.

"First, send troops first to show off. Duke Xuande can go to the emperor first, and then give Zhang Wenyuan an order to lead 7000 people to the north to test it out. Seeing that the situation is not good, he retreats immediately.

Second, lobby Yanzhou and Zang Ba.Only by ensuring that the two will not intervene in this war can we send troops with confidence.

Third, lobbying Yuan Gonglu for backup.Once things changed, Yanzhou or Taishan had any changes, they immediately turned their horses to fight Zang Ba.At the same time, he made an agreement with Yuan Gonglu to take Yanzhou together, and he would definitely be interested.

Fourth, after all the above three points are achieved, order a general to lead thousands of elites to the north to join Zhang Wenyuan, and officially send troops to Jizhou! "

In the end, Lin Chao made a conclusion, that is, on the premise of not affecting the stable development of Xuzhou, and eliminating coveting from the surrounding areas, he can reap as many benefits as he can.

Even if the last land won could not be defended, the people of Jizhou should be forced to move back, leaving a vacant land for Yuan Shao.

In troubled times, the most valuable thing is not land and cities, but population!

Lin Chao's four plans are comprehensive, and it can be said that he has anticipated all possible dangers, and everyone has no reason to object.

Only Tian Feng was still shaking his head and sighing, probably because he was distressed by the loss of money and food.

Wen Ruo was really a big mouther, and actually told the truth, which gave Lin Zichu the opportunity to mobilize troops.If he directly said that he didn't have any money or food, let's see how he would send troops.

"What do you guys think of Zichu's plan?"

Seeing that no one opened their mouths, Liu Bei took the initiative to ask.

"Jia seconded the proposal!"

Of course Guo Jia was the first to jump out and express his approval.

At the same time, the paralyzed Xun You who had been silent all this time also stood up, cupped his hands and said, "You second the proposal!"

Then, all the generals in Xuzhou clasped their fists together and said: "Second!"

Xun Yu, Tian Feng, and Xun Chen looked at each other and nodded slightly.

Liu Bei was overjoyed, and immediately made a decision: "Okay, I will act according to Zichu's plan!"

After finishing speaking, he smiled at Lin Chao again: "Zi Chu, you just said that you would send a general to lead ten thousand elite troops to the north, who will take on this important task?"

Hearing this, the eyes of all Xuzhou generals lit up.

This is an opportunity to lead the army alone and make contributions!
Guan Yu stroked his beard, although he still kept his eyes fixed, his complexion was obviously redder.

Zhao Yun's eyes were full of fighting spirit, but he restrained himself from showing it.

As for Zhang Fei, he just had to raise his hand to sign up.

The rest of the generals also looked excited. Although they were not qualified to be the chief generals, they were still qualified as deputy generals.

Lin Chao thought for a while, and finally set his sights on Zhao Yun.

"Mr. Xuande, the court thinks that Zilong is worthy of a heavy responsibility."

Liu Bei thought for a while, this time the troops were dispatched with safety in mind, and Zhao Yun's method of using troops did meet the requirements, so he nodded immediately.

"Okay, Zilong will be the commander in this battle, and go north to Jizhou!"
