I am not an ant thief in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 550, Become the gatekeeper of a paper tiger
The patriarchs of Nanyang County, although they dare not refuse to give money, after all, they are begging Liu Bei now, and they are also worried that Liu Bei will really withdraw the soldiers stationed in Nanyang County, and their family will really be over by then.

Just like what Zhang Fei said, Liu Bei wanted a little money at most, but Lei Gong really wanted their lives.So they can only collect those bonds and send all the gold, silver, money and food in their mansion to the Xiangyang treasury.

But this doesn't mean that they don't have anger in their hearts, especially for Zhang Fei to threaten them, which is even more humiliating to them.

If this was 10 years ago, they would have made Zhang Fei such a reckless man.Go to the imperial prison in Luoyang and let him know what it means to live without seeking death.

But now the imperial court is under the control of Liu Bei, so they spread the news of what happened that day one after another. For a while, the public opinion in Xiangyang City was in an uproar, and Liu Bei's reputation was instantly stigmatized.

The civil and military officials in Xiangyang City immediately regarded Liu Bei as the next Dong Zhuo, and the atmosphere in Xiangyang became tense instantly.After hiding for more than 10 years, Liu Bei finally revealed his true colors.

After Cao Cao and Guo Jia heard the news, they were also stunned!
"Liu Bei actually has such great courage, I really underestimated him in the past."

Cao Cao used to regard Liu Bei as a lucky man. Although Liu Bei occupied the land in the south of the Yangtze River, it was just luck. There is no big prince in the south of the Yangtze River. He occupied the land of four states all the way, and he never experienced a difficult war , The wars that happened along the way were caused by internal problems among the princes, and he pushed in the name of the court without any difficulty at all.

It wasn't until today's incident that he had a high opinion of Liu Bei. He can occupy half of the Han Dynasty, and Liu Bei really has some skills.Few people can do this decisively to the princes of the world.

On the contrary, Guo Jia sighed: "The gentry has really declined. If such things happened in the past, it would definitely shock the whole Han Dynasty. I am afraid that Liu Bei will not be able to live in peace in the future, but now the founding heroes of Nanyang County only dare to bark secretly, and even dare not Accusing Liu Bei face to face, you must know that they are one of the most powerful families in the Han Dynasty."

Then Guo Jia thought that Lei Gong first occupied the land of Hebei, and then occupied the land of the Central Plains. These two places are the places with the most powerful families in the world. It can be said that Xu Wei's tricks have cut down 9% of the strength of the big Han's powerful families. .

Now the only powerful nobles in the entire Han Dynasty are the founding heroes of Nanyang County, but now that Liu Bei has done this, their tiger skins can be regarded as pulled out, so that everyone can clearly see them A weak face like a paper tiger.

As for the area south of the Yangtze River, Guo Jia seems to have no gentry at all, only some powerful people, and they have almost no status in the political map of the Han Dynasty.

Starting from Emperor Shizu, the Great Han spent more than 200 years trying to weaken the strength of the powerful and noble families, but no emperor could do this.

On the contrary, Lei Gong, a rebellious man, under the risk of being besieged by the world, really cleaned up the powerful clans of the big man. Up to now, the powerful clans can no longer affect the general trend of the world. Even if this kind of thing happened, Guo Jia still couldn't believe it.

The most powerful force in the world was actually defeated by Lei Gong.

"Where are there any elite clans, they were beaten to pieces by Lei Gong, they were in a state of embarrassment, and their tiger skins were pulled out long ago. Now everyone still thinks they are powerful, but it is just the inertia of hundreds of years. In fact, their existence It is meaningless to fight for hegemony in the world."

Cao Cao did not have the same emotion as Guo Jia, although his family is also a top family in the Han Dynasty, and it has flourished in the Han Dynasty for 400 years.

But after all, his family is not backward, and he has become a member of the eunuch party. He has been discriminated against by the powerful and powerful families all over the world. It can be said that he does not have a strong sense of belonging to these powerful and powerful families, so naturally he will not be concerned about their decline. feel sad.

On the third day, Liu Bei found Cao Cao, and the two sides discussed the battle plan against the Dagan army.

Cao Cao assured Liu Bei that after the autumn harvest, it would recruit 30 troops to threaten the three places of Jizhou, Yanzhou and Yuzhou, and at the same time, tentatively attack Yanzhou from the direction of Taishan County, trying to help Liu Bei delay the elite of the big army .

On the other hand, Liu Bei launched an army of [-] troops to attack Yuzhou first, trying to eliminate the tens of thousands of elites of the Dagan Army, and then retreated, leading the main force of the Dagan Army to attack the iron wall of Nanyang County. Viable power weakens Lei Gong's power in the Central Plains.

Only Zhang Fei hesitated and said: "It's not that my old Zhang is greedy for life and afraid of death. Lei Gong is a famous general in the world. He has never been defeated until now. He should be able to easily see our simple strategy of luring the enemy. One side is suitable for cavalry. In the galloping land of Qingxu, on one side is the iron-fortified Nanyang County, Lei Gong is afraid that there is a great possibility to conquer Qingzhou and Xuzhou first, and then lead hundreds of thousands of troops after the Central Plains are completely pacified and no one can threaten him. Attack Jingzhou!"

Guo Jiadao: "So the timing is very important. Of course Lei Gong can control the overall situation, but it is difficult for Lei Gong's subordinates to have such a view of the overall situation. On the one hand, they will become the main force going south and become the main contributor to the peace of the world; The big army will attack Nanyang County without hesitation, and as long as we fight fiercely in Nanyang County and attract enough main forces, we can even wipe out the main army of Yuzhou. In order to save this army, he also had to mobilize his main force to attack Nanyang County.

Therefore, the burden on the generals in this battle is very heavy. You have to fight fiercely and completely, and you have to attract all the main troops from Yuzhou to Nanyang County, and you have to surround them tightly so that it is difficult for them to break through your line of defense. , so that Lei Gong has no choice but to save his army, so that we have the possibility of severely injuring Lei Gong! "

Yuan Ji was surprised and said: "The battlefield is ever-changing. Feng Xiao's strategy is so complicated. If you are not careful, you will lose everything! This battle is too risky!"

Guo Jia said helplessly: "Whoever makes our military strength inferior to others, we can only find ways to weaken the enemy's strength with tricks!"

Liu Bei said: "But even if this is the case, there is a great possibility that Lei Gong will attack you!"

Cao Cao said: "We have done everything we need to do. If Lei Gong returns, I will fight Lei Gong to the death in the land of Qingzhou!"

Liu Bei had to believe Cao Cao's words even if he didn't believe them, because if Cao Cao surrendered again and Lei Gong had 30 more troops, the future of the great man would be even more bleak.
