Chaos of the Three Kingdoms Summons

Chapter 1760 Kill the Chicken and Respect the Monkey

The actions of the northern vassals to burn the checkpoints, of course, could not have been done in a daze, and they must have their own purposes behind it.

Among the princes in the north, Han Xin, as the representative of Qin Zheng, was the most ruthless one. Taking advantage of his distance from the three passes of Dagu, Xuanyuan, and Yique, compared with the other princes in the north, he went straight to it. After lighting three fires, there was no discussion with the other princes beforehand.

Of course, setting fire to the pass was not led by Han Xin, but by Fan Ju.Qin Zheng's territory is still far away in Youzhou, and it is still far away from Sizhou!
If this place is taken down by the allied forces of the princes, it is most likely that Yuan Shao, or Cao Cao, the princes who are close to the water and gain the moon first, will benefit.Of course, the greater possibility is Yuan Shao who has the advantage in all aspects.

If Yuan Shao took down Sizhou, when they dealt with Yuan Shao in the future, they would still have to face the danger of eight passes.Rather than that, for their convenience in the future, they simply destroyed all these checkpoints.

Of course, even after Yuan Shao occupies Sizhou in the future, he can rebuild these checkpoints.However, rebuilding so many levels at once is a waste of time and money.

If Yuan Shao is really such a prodigal at that time, Qin Zheng will still be happy to see his success, and it can also slow down Yuan Shao's development speed.

It can also be seen from this point that although the princes are united with each other, they are still right when it is time to cheat you.

As for Hulaoguan, Guan Yu followed Gongsun Yan's suggestion and wanted to attack Hulaoguan with the same idea, while Di Qing just wanted to encourage Guan Yu and Yuan Shaozhi. deepen the contradiction.

Guan Yu is not the kind of person who is particularly sharp-mouthed. Later, Gongsun Yan simply went on the stage by himself. As a political strategist, Gongsun Yan's mouth is definitely a thousand miles higher than others.

Of course, this guy Yuan Shao is not easy to fool, not to mention that he also has a lot of advisors under his command.Even the princes of the Central Plains may not be able to enter Sizhou now, but their northern princes still have the upper hand. At this time, there is really no need for the enemy to burn the pass.

"Let Chi You do it!" Yuan Xi, one of Yuan Shao's other counselors, suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

In particular, Zhuge Liang made a big comeback against the wind in Jingbei, although this news is definitely bad news for the princes.However, just at this time, Gongsun Yan was given a rare reason!

They suppressed the border with a large army, but there was indeed a county magistrate who couldn't help but wanted to surrender.But before he officially took action, the heads had already fallen to the ground. Within a few days, the heads of the furniture sent to Chang'an City were all chopped off at the vegetable market.

Li Xiang had previously issued an order for the county magistrates of the Yin counties in Henan to recruit volunteers to defend the city, and also led them to only defend the city, and not to go out of the city to fight under any circumstances.

But at this time, in order to prevent them from getting rid of Li Xiang before the end of the Great War in Central Shu, it would be better to simply burn down Hulao Pass, and it would be much easier to deal with Li Xiang in the future.

Since then, half of the original Luoyang Eight Passes have become history.

In addition to having external agencies, the floating house also has the important task of supervising all officials.And Sizhou, which is the base camp, is the place with the strongest influence of the floating house.

If you fight to the death, you will die at most, and your relatives will definitely receive preferential treatment from the lord.As long as they dared to surrender, let alone whether they could survive, those relatives who were sent to Luoyang would inevitably end up with their heads.

But if they directly attack Luoyang without attacking these cities, they can't even guarantee the safety of the most basic food roads, and there are various hidden dangers behind this.

It is inevitable that they will suffer losses in the dozens of counties in Henan Yin. Each county recruits volunteers, which is equivalent to tens of thousands of peasant soldiers in each county.

"Let me tell you, generals, how are you going to continue the fight? You can't just leave these county towns alone!" Yuan Shao said with a grim expression.

But the opponent has the advantage in the city, no matter how low the combat effectiveness of these people is, but even if you exchange a few for one, their coalition forces will also suffer!

This Li Zifeng was really scheming, either he didn't make a move, but if he did, he would put them in a dilemma and hit their vital points.

At the beginning, Li Xiang innocently said that he dared to surrender without a fight, and directly wanted to exterminate the Nine Clans. No one doubted whether Li Xiang would be so cruel!Li Xiang has been able to get to where he is today step by step. In this world, how many people with a little knowledge would think that Li Xiang is a soft-hearted person?

After this incident happened, people like Yuan Shao were in a mess all of a sudden.With this first county magistrate as an example, the Jin army played a magnificent role in killing chickens and monkeys.Some of the remaining county magistrates from today dared to make up their minds to surrender.

Although they look down on the combat effectiveness of those peasant soldiers, if they are placed on field battles, one-tenth of the number can take care of these peasant soldiers.

Don't Chi You have so many second-rate soldiers under his command, just let his troops consume them!

And that Gongsun Yan is also a ruthless person, unable to negotiate for such a long time, so he simply cooked raw rice and cooked it.On the one hand, they pretended to continue discussing to stabilize Yuan Shao, on the other hand, they secretly locked up the Hulao and set it on fire.

In more than a dozen counties in Yin, Henan, each city has so many peasant soldiers for no reason, hundreds of thousands of peasant soldiers. If they fight down step by step, how many casualties will they pay?

His face is not good-looking. On the one hand, it is true that these people directly burned the four checkpoints, leaving no room for him to take advantage of him. On the other hand, they are now facing to the problem.

The reason given by Gongsun Yan is not complicated. The southern princes can't count on it now. Next, the Central Plains princes have no chance of entering Sizhou. They must continue to work with Yue Fei in Jingbei.

"Chiyou?"

"This is a good idea! But, the other party probably won't agree so easily!" Han Xin said after thinking about it.

Although they are all second-rate people, I am afraid that the other party will not send them out to be cannon fodder for them. Even if they are still cannon fodder in the end, wouldn't it be more delicious to keep them as cannon fodder for themselves?

"No problem..."
