Han Xiang

Chapter 246 I Don't Understand, But I'm Shocked

Sun Qian is one of Liu Bei's few current staff members. He was expropriated to work in the state during his stay in Xuzhou. His ability is comparable to that of Jian Yong.

Long Xiang has become a habit of receiving people and treating things. Sun Qian is very self-aware when facing politeness, thinking that the lord is eating ashes and drinking wind in Runan, how can he be ashamed to be entertained?

Sun Qian went to Hefei not only to ask advice, but also to tell Liu Bei what he saw and heard.

Along the way, I saw that the two banks of Shishui were concentrating on farming. At this time, Hefei was really like what Luo Yicheng and Xu Wei said, with a large population and few people who were hungry. Long Xiang's governance level can be seen.

Just a few words with Long Xiang, Sun Qian found that he was not simple, and finally understood why Liu Bei didn't want to come to Hefei. Long Xiang, a "land snake", is very powerful, and outsiders may not be able to suppress him.

When Long Xiang left the post house, he told the post officer to serve wine and food according to the standard. Although there was no clean up, the conventional etiquette should not be lost.

When the two returned to Xiaowei's mansion, Lu Su was already waiting in the main hall of the vestibule, and hung the map of Runan on the shelf. He seemed to have guessed something.

A wise man is good at summarizing information and then making the most appropriate judgment. Lu Su happens to be such a capable person.

Liu Bei not only returned to Runan, but also sent an envoy Sun Qian to Hefei. Zhang Fei was so eager, and Long Xiang was so anxious to discuss with him.
All kinds of signs indicated that Liu Bei would not come to Huainan, and there was a possibility of war in Runan, which might be related to Yuan Shao, but the result was not bad.

After listening to Long Xiang's introduction, Lu Su first smiled knowingly, then raised three fingers.

"If the emperor's uncle wants to succeed, one has to wait for the second battle between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao. If Xu Du's main force does not go north, he will be able to kill Runan in a short time;
Second, it is difficult to form a forest with only one tree, and Gongdu alone is not enough to accomplish things. There are many bandits in Runan against Cao. If you can persuade several hilltops to respond to the uprising, Cao Jun will be overwhelmed;
The third is external support. General Zhang's [-] strong men can just go to Runan to help. In addition, if we can play a diversion role, it will also help the emperor's uprising. "

Long Xiang took it for granted, turned around and asked Zhang Fei: "Yide, do you understand what the gifted scholar said?"

"Well, I see."

Zhang Fei nodded resolutely, and then added: "Zijing asked me to take soldiers to Runan to help elder brother."

Long Xiang asked again: "No more?"

"Gone."

Zhang Fei scratched his head with an innocent face, frowned and muttered: "Zi Jing said a lot just now, and this is the only thing about me, did I hear it wrong?"

"Uh no good"

Long Xiang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he thought that the third master really knew how to focus on the key points, he should be able to score [-] out of [-] in listening comprehension, how could he only listen to what was about himself?It seems I expect too much from you.

Seeing that Long Xiang and Zhang Fei stopped 'joking', Lu Su raised three fingers and added while bending one: "The three countermeasures I just mentioned, the first requires Yuan Shao's cooperation, and the second requires the cooperation of the emperor himself." Deal with it, the third is what we can control, I don’t know how General Zhang trains his troops.”

"I don't need Zijing to worry about my military training"

When Zhang Fei replied, he suddenly realized that something was wrong, so he hurriedly changed his words and asked: "No. I was going to Runan, but my husband set up three plans for my elder brother. Only 3000 people like me can be controlled. Is it not the same?"

"Ha ha."

Lu Su was immediately amused when he heard it, and turned his head to joke with Long Xiang: "General Zhang has a quick response and a strong ability to focus on key points. If he can read some military books, he may make great progress."

"Read military books?"

Zhang Fei pursed his lips and shook his head: "That thing knows me, but I don't know it, don't talk about me, sir, talk about tricks."

Lu Su nodded slightly: "I have already said just now, only the third point, we have the initiative, if we can lure part of Cao Cao's troops, the pressure will be much less when the emperor's uncle starts an incident in Runan."

"Let us lead?"

Long Xiang was taken aback when he heard this, and thought to himself, isn't it a car with a mantis arm?Hastily reminded Lu Su: "Zijing didn't joke with me, did he? Hefei is hard to guard against even Sun Quan, let alone provoke Cao Cao."

"Haha."

Lu Su smiled mysteriously: "Since I'm using tricks, naturally it can't affect Hefei. Cao Cao used tricks last year, so let's do it again for him."

"We also use alienation? Whom? How?"

Long Xiang quickly asked three consecutive questions, scratching his head and turning into Zhang Fei's naive look.

Lu Su stroked his beard and said: "Hefei is backed by Jiangdong, so we can only use Jiangdong's strategy. Sun Quan asked us to dig a canal, which obviously has the intention of winning longevity. Why don't you disclose it to Cao Cao?"

"Zijing's meaning."

Long Xiang and Zhang Fei looked at each other, they both had the same cute expression, Long Xiang understood Lu Su's intention at this time, Zhang Fei was still puzzled by Monk Zhang Er.

Lu Su murmured: "Although the Shouchun line is barren, the strategic significance of that location is huge. Cao Cao cannot let Jiangdong occupy it. Once Sun Quan takes Shouchun, his warships will be able to go straight to the Central Plains. That threat will outweigh Zhang Xiu is better than the emperor's uncle."

Zhang Fei scratched his head and showed off to Long Xiang: "I seem to understand a little bit, Yun Qi, haven't you understood yet?"

"Ah"

Long Xiang smiled and ignored it, and continued to ask Lu Su: "Sun Quan has motives, and Cao Cao has pressure. This plan is clever, but how to implement it? Send people to Xudu to spread rumors?"

Lu Su stroked his beard and asked back: "Hefei already has ready-made candidates, why should Yunqi go to Xudu?"

"Miaomiao"

Knowing that Lu Su was referring to Liu Fu, Long Xiang sent people to Xudu to spread the rumors, the effect would not be as good as the Yangzhou Inspector's report. It happened that Liu Fu's three-month coolie period was about to expire, so it was very suitable to go back with "important information" to complain.

"What are you talking about?"

Zhang Fei looked left and right, wondering why Long and Lu could speak clearly, but he couldn't understand anything?Yun Qi was obviously not as good as himself just now
Lu Su caught a glimpse of Zhang Fei's foolishness, and a trick came to mind, and then he shared it with Long Xiang: "Sun Quan sent Sun He to lead troops to Lujiang, and I heard that Mei Cheng and Chen Lan wanted to take refuge, and Yun Qi should use it. "

Long Xiang frowned and asked, "How to use it?"

"Look here."

Lu Su put his finger on the map, and explained with a serious face: "Yide will lead troops to Runan in a few days, and he can head north under the banner of Sunhe, go to the south of Shouchun, then turn west, and go upstream to the Huai River. Cross the river in Yangquan County, and finally go north to Runan to meet the emperor's uncle."

"What do you mean? Why do you want to go around Shouchun?"

Zhang Fei became more and more confused because he wanted to cross the Huaihe River in Yangquan County, he could go directly from the south of Shaopi to the northwest, and he didn't need to go to Shouchun for a few dozen miles.

Seeing that Long Xiang was still frowning and thinking, Lu Su didn't immediately answer Zhang Fei's doubts.

After a while, Long Xiang's eyes suddenly lit up, and he gave Lu Su a thumbs up: "Zi Jing's method is excellent. He used Sun He's identity to send Yide away, and gave Cao Cao wrong information, that is, Sun He led troops to subdue Chen. Lan; when the Shifei Canal is fully connected, Jiangdong will be able to advance both land and water, and directly take the front line of the Huai River. Cao Cao may have to pay attention to it.”

Lu Su readily affirmed: "That's exactly what I mean. In addition, General Lei has friendship with Chen Lan, so maybe it can be of use to me."

"Chen Lan? I'll ask Yuan Duan (Lei Xu) later." Long Xiang nodded.

The two talked to each other, and Zhang Fei was confused. Although he couldn't talk to each other, judging from the expressions of Long Xiang and Lu Su, he knew that Lu Su's strategy was very good.

Zhang Fei leaned in front of the map stand, scratched his head at Long Xiang and Lu Su and smirked: "I don't understand, but I was greatly shocked."
