Lu Bu's strongest strategy

Chapter 213 Persuasion
Jizhou.

"what!"

Snapped!
Yuan Shao's majestic face was full of anger, "Lu Fengxian, you dare to harm Meng De, it is really hateful."

Yuan Shao and Cao Cao have been good friends since they were young. Both of them had great ambitions. When they were officials, they were both one of the eight captains of Xiyuan, and jointly controlled the imperial guard.

Yuan Shao couldn't help feeling sad when he thought of the past experiences of the two of them!
"Meng De, I will avenge you for your revenge."

Tian Feng stepped forward and said, "My lord, Lu Fengxian has occupied Yanzhou and his power is becoming more and more powerful. We should send troops early to destroy him to avoid future troubles."

Yuan Shao nodded, "It's exactly what I want."

Guo Tu suddenly said, "What will happen to Youzhou if we go out to deal with Lu Fengxian?"

Speaking of this, Guo Tu paused, and said slowly, "Although Gongsun Zan of Youzhou retreated to Yijing to guard against death, if he hears that our army is attacking Yanzhou with all its strength, she will definitely not let go of this opportunity.

If during the stalemate between our army and Lu Fengxian, Youzhou Gongsun Zan suddenly attacks from behind, our army will be in a dilemma, being attacked from both sides, and it will be difficult to deal with it! "

After hearing this, Tian Feng was furious and said through gritted teeth, "My lord listened to your words last time, so I allowed Lu Fengxian to become big. If I don't take action to destroy him, I'm afraid he will become my lord's strong enemy. When the time comes, he will become a powerful enemy again." How to deal with it?"

Guo Tu shook his head, "Although Lu Fengxian occupied Yanzhou, compared with Youzhou Gongsun Zan, there is still a big difference."

Tian Feng snorted coldly, "That's nonsense!"

Guo Tu turned around and cupped his hands at Yuan Shao, "My lord, although Lu Bu occupied Yanzhou, he didn't have many soldiers and horses, and the total number of troops was only more than 1. Compared with Gongsun Zan of Youzhou, he was far behind.

Therefore, I believe that Gongsun Zan of Youzhou should be the main one. After eradicating him, the best time to destroy Lu Bu is when the north is pacified and there is no worries. "

Hearing this, Yuan Shao frowned.

What Guo Tu said was actually exactly what he thought in his heart.

He has always wanted to destroy Gongsun Zan of Youzhou, just to calm the north, and then readjust his direction and attack Yanzhou.

Logically speaking, this is also the safest and most reliable method.

If he attacked Yanzhou rashly, Gongsun Zan of Youzhou would definitely send troops from behind in the event of a stalemate between the two sides, which was not what Yuan Shao wanted to see.

It is precisely for this reason that Yuan Shao has always been patient with Yanzhou, just not wanting to face the crisis of being attacked on both sides.

Of course there were reasons for Guo Tu's persuasion, but more, it was what he thought in his heart, which coincided with Guo Tu's.

At this moment, Yuan Shao faced this problem again.

Lu Bu had destroyed Cao Cao, completely occupied Yanzhou, and became Yuan Shao's enemy.

Should he attack Lu Bu in Yanzhou first, or continue to attack Gongsun Zan in Youzhou?

Seeing Yuan Shao's hesitation, Tian Feng hurried forward and said, "My lord, don't hesitate any longer. If you let Lu Bu become bigger, the consequences will be unimaginable. The best policy is to destroy him as soon as possible!"

Guo Tu cupped his hands and said, "My lord, if you don't eliminate Youzhou Gongsun Zan, you will have to let the tiger return to the mountain. I'm afraid it won't be that easy to subdue him."

When Yuan Shao heard what the two said, each had their own reasons, he couldn't help but frown, he couldn't make up his mind.

Seeing that Yuan Shao was still hesitating, Tian Feng cupped his hands and said, "My lord, this opportunity is rare. Now that the eldest son has sent troops to Yanzhou, it is the best time for our army to attack. If you miss it, you will regret it!"

Jushou also hurriedly stepped forward and said, "My lord, when our army sends troops, they can coordinate with the eldest son's troops and horses. It will definitely distract Lu Bu. When the time comes, it will be easy to win."

Hearing this, Yuan Shao thought of Cao Cao who had been wiped out again, and anger surged in his heart, he gritted his teeth and said, "Since this is the case, our army will send to Yanzhou concurrently. This time, we must avenge Meng De."

"Yan Liang obeys the order."

Yan Liang hastily stepped forward and cupped his hands, "The end is here."

Yuan Shao shouted, "Yan Liang, I order you to take fifty thousand troops to Yanzhou, there must be no mistakes!"

"The last will obey."

Guo Tu cupped his hands to the sky and said, "My lord, I still have a plan, which will definitely destroy Lu Bu."

Yuan Shao frowned, "What's the plan?"

Guo Tu held up his hands and said, "My lord, in addition to the troops and horses of the eldest son of Qingzhou, our army also has troops and horses available."

Yuan Shao turned his head to look at Guo Gong, "Where else is there?"

"Guo Gong, governor of Yuzhou."

Guo Tu smiled slightly, "My lord, as long as you send someone to invite, I can assure you that Guo Gong will definitely help. At that time, there will be a total of three armies attacking Yanzhou. Even if Lu Bu has great abilities, I am afraid that it will be absolutely impossible to escape this time." die."

Hearing this, Yuan Shao's eyes lit up, "But, will Guo Gong agree?"

Guo Tu clasped his hands and said with a smile, "Guo Gong, governor of Yuzhou, was originally a double-faced character. Now the lord is very powerful. As long as he is lured a little, he will definitely be used by our army."

Hearing this, Yuan Shao was overjoyed and nodded with a smile, "That's right, send a letter to Guo Gong immediately, asking him to send troops to help attack Yanzhou."

Tian Feng suddenly said, "My lord, Guo Gong has been used by Lu Bu, and he is now stationed in Xiaopei to guard the door for Lu Bu.

Our army wants to persuade, will Guo Gong really agree? "

Guo Tu waved his hand and said with a smile, "Don't worry, if you don't believe me, I can go there in person, and I will definitely be able to persuade Guo Gong to use him for my lord."

Hearing this, Yuan Shao was overjoyed immediately, and nodded with a smile, "In that case, you should go to Xiaopei as soon as possible. If this can be done, there will be a big reward."

Hearing this, Guo Tu was overjoyed immediately, and hastily cupped his hands, "My lord, I will leave immediately, and there will be absolutely no delay."

……

Yan Liang was arranging his troops in the military camp and preparing to send troops.

Guo Tu took a dozen guards and galloped towards Xiao Pei that day.

This time to persuade Guo Gong, although Tian Feng felt unsure, Guo Tu was confident, because he clearly remembered that when Lu Bu attacked Yanzhou, Guo Gong wanted to come to Yanzhou for a share.

Guo Gong came to Juancheng with more than 2 soldiers and horses. As a result, he was persuaded by Xun Yu without fighting once, and he retreated obediently.

Guo Tu was good at understanding people's hearts. Through this incident, he knew Guo Gong's character very well, so he was very confident that he could persuade Guo Gong to join Yuan Shao.

This time Yuan Shao was angry and prepared to attack Yanzhou. In Guo Tu's view, there was no reason to win.

Since he was able to win, Guo Tu would of course want to get a share of the action, and this time he went to persuade Guo Gong, which was his contribution.

Guo Tu couldn't help but sneer at the corner of his mouth as he recalled what Yuan Shao had said.

"Tian Yuanhao, if you want to fight with me, you are still too far away, hehe!"
