Shuhan

Chapter 38
After everyone thought about it for a long time, Xiang Chong in armor stood up and spoke at this moment.

"Yuejuan County is a large county. Although all counties are counties, except for Dingjia County and Biqin County, which are reinforcements for our army, the rest of the county magistrates are all local tribal leaders. The military strength is definitely not enough. Although Gao Ding, the Yi king of Yuexi, is called the old man, the other counties of Yuexiong County are not completely obeyed by him. It is better to rush into Qiongdu County while the enemy is in the dark, and capture the old man of Yuexiu alive. Wang Gaoding, when the message comes, the counties in Yuexie County will naturally be pacified."

Marching and fighting is not a game, let alone talking on paper.

Although Liu Chan's men are elite, they don't have many soldiers and are not good at siege.

If we fight one by one, there will definitely not be enough manpower.

If Gao Ding responds, with his status as a barbarian old man, he may be able to summon tens of thousands of barbarians under Xiaojue, so the battle against Gao Ding must be done by surprise and a quick decision!
Guan Xing frowned, his style of marching and fighting was based on safety.

"Qiongdu County is in the hinterland of Yuexie County. If we don't capture the king, we will be trapped by his army. It's too risky, too radical, and too dangerous."

Zhang Bao crossed his arms and said, "Soldiers are cunning. The greater the risk, the greater the reward. As An Guo said, he thinks the tactic of capturing the king and beheading him is too risky, but do you have any other strategies?"

"this."

Guan Xing frowned, but he couldn't think of any other plan.

"Time is a fighter!"

Zhang Bao's tone was firm.

"The young master ordered us to march to Yuexiu County in a hurry, just to catch Gaoding by surprise. If Gaoding finds out our whereabouts if we stay here for a day or two, as the old man, we can get together under Xiaojue. The soldiers of ten thousand people will join forces with Yong Kai at that time, and I am afraid that the rebellion in Nanzhong will be difficult to contain."

Although Zhang Bao has thick eyebrows and big eyes, he hits the nail on the head when analyzing the situation.

"Capture the king and behead him, this is the best choice!"

After Zhang Bao finished speaking, everyone was silent and fixed their eyes on Liu Chan.

"It seems that you have already chosen your tactics, to capture the king and behead him, but how to capture the king and behead him, do you have a plan?"

How to capture the king and behead him?

Zhang Bao patted his chest and said: "Taking advantage of the night, rush to Qiongdu County, take advantage of the unexpected, capture the king and behead him!"

"This place is fifty miles away from Qiongdu County. If you want to keep running at such a speed, how can there be no movement? How can you ensure that the news will not be obtained in advance by Gao Ding?"

"This"

Zhang Bao only has a general plan, but when it comes to details, he doesn't know how to do it.

"What Anguo said just now is still reasonable. To deal with Gao Ding, the old man of Yuexi County, we must win quickly, but quick victory does not mean that we must take risks and be aggressive."

Liu Chan smiled, as if he had a plan in mind.

"Li Ming, a traveler, has already pledged his allegiance to me. I can pretend to be a caravan of 500 people and drive directly to Qiongdu County. At that time, Li Ming will be there to meet him in Qiongdu County. Next, conquering Qiongdu County should not be a problem, and the rest of the people, occupying the main passes of Yuexie County, if the strategy of capturing the king and beheading fails, there is also a way out, so that there will be no death without life!"

"The specific regulations are"

Liu Chan came up with strategies one by one, even down to the hour.

When everyone heard it, they all sighed.

"This plan is absolutely foolproof!"

There was no complacency on Liu Chan's face.

There is definitely no foolproof strategy. No matter how good the strategy is, it cannot match the variables.

The reason Liu Chan was able to make such a strategy was because of Li Ming, who knew the information about Yuexie County very well.

Knowing yourself and knowing your enemy can help you win a hundred battles.

"Rest early, everyone. Tomorrow I will lead 500 people to pretend to be a caravan and go to Qiongdu County!"

"Young master, with a body of ten thousand gold, should not go deep into the enemy's territory and take risks. The story of Xia Houyuan in Hanzhong is still in front of us."

At this time, Qiao Zhou stepped forward to advise.

"That's right, a gentleman doesn't stand under a dangerous wall, and a son with a body of gold, don't take too many risks."

"You can't do it, son!"

"Young master must not!"

Guan Xing, Zhang Bao, Guan Yinping, Fei Yi, Dong Yun and others all came forward to warn them.

Liu Chan also knew that it would be too risky for him to lead the troops forward, so he could only say: "Then who should take on such a difficult and dangerous task?"

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, as if there was a tacit understanding, Guan Xing and Zhang Bao stood up at the same time.

"The end will be willing to go!"

"The end will be willing to go!"

Guan Xing and Zhang Bao looked at each other and said, "I'll go and pretend to be a business traveler. You need to be flexible. You are too reckless."

Zhang Bao snorted coldly, and said, "Capturing the king and beheading requires extraordinary courage. In this regard, you are not as good as me."

The field is full of gunpowder.

At this time, Zhao Yue, the Ranger of Shu County, stood up.

"Young master, two generals, how about leaving such an important task to the hands of the last general?"

"you?"

Zhang Bao looked at Zhao Yue, who was five big and three thick, and said with some disdain: "You are not as good as me in martial arts, and not as resourceful as Anguo, how can you take on this important task?"

Zhao Yue scratched his head and laughed, not paying much attention to Zhang Bao's contempt.

"When it comes to martial arts, although I am a ranger, I think I am not inferior to General Zhang. As for resourcefulness, I may not be as good as General Guan, but I have an advantage that none of you have."

"Oh?"

Guan Xing and Zhang Bao looked at Zhao Yue curiously, even Liu Chan also attracted Zhao Yue's attention.

"When I was a knight-errant, I traveled to Nanzhong as a merchant. The two of you may be extremely resourceful or skilled in martial arts, but how do you travel in business and deal with the local barbarians? Do you know?"

Zhao Yue's words stopped Guan Xing and Zhang Bao.

"Besides, you two are strong and powerful, and you behave like nobles. If you pretend to be a traveling merchant, it will be easy for barbarians to see through."

Hearing this, Guan Xing and Zhang Bao were even more speechless.

"In addition, both of you are important ministers, and they are rich in gold. I, Zhao Yue, am no more than a ranger in Yizhou. I am alone and have nothing to worry about. I have no choice but to take on such a difficult and dangerous task!"

"Don't underestimate yourself!"

After listening to Zhao Yue's words, Liu Chan had already made up his mind about the candidate to be the leader of the wandering merchants.

As long as you are better than Zhao!

Liu Chan stepped forward, took Zhao Yue's hands, and said emotionally: "Who said that you, Zhao Yue, are alone and have no worries? Now that you have entered the martial arts hall, don't the students around you care about it? Now that you are in the army, your colleagues around you , Aren’t they all like brothers? You serve as a general under me, and I treat you like a brother, so why belittle yourself and demean yourself?”

Liu Chan pretended to be angry.

"Sir~"

Zhao Yue looks big and thick, but his heart is very soft. Liu Chan's words undoubtedly hit the weakest part of his heart.

This thick man's eyes actually became moist.

"Entering the martial arts hall, it's like having a home. When I settle Nanzhong and return to Chengdu, I will find a daughter of a noble family for you to marry and help you start a family!"

"Sir~"

suck~
Zhao Yue sucked back the moved snot, wiped away the tears from his eyes, patted his chest and said: "Young master said, there is a mountain of swords and fire ahead, I will also go, don't worry, son, the king of Yue Yi, Gao Ding, the end I will definitely capture him alive, and send him to the Young Master, who will be judged by the Young Master himself!"
