    Distance and close attack?

    Yan Liang's brows moved slightly, and he had vaguely guessed it.

    "Go on." Yan Liang waved his hand.

    Jia Xu raised his hand and pointed to the north, and said slowly: "Although Liu Bei has gained Youzhou now, Sun Gongkang of Liaodong is located in the far east, making it difficult to pacify him. Gongsun Kang borders Liu Bei, so he must be wary of him and secretly conquer Liu Bei.  As an enemy, if that¡¯s the case, then why doesn¡¯t the king use it for his own purposes?¡±

    Yan Liang nodded slightly, Jia Xu's strategy was basically consistent with what he had in mind.

    "Although Gongsun Kang does not pose much of a threat to Liu Bei, he can still contain some of Liu Bei's troops. Moreover, Liaodong has few soldiers but many horses. Our Chu State has many soldiers but few horses. The king can then go to Liaodong by sea to purchase war horses in large quantities. In this way  , although the horses obtained are not as good as those of Liu Bei and Cao Cao, it can be expected to greatly strengthen the cavalry. And our army also has sharp weapons such as Yuan Rong's crossbows and crossbow chariots, and supplemented by a considerable number of cavalry, I believe it will be able to restrain the Cao and Liu families.  Cavalry."

    Jia Xu¡¯s eloquent words revealed his so-called strategy of ¡°making friends at a distance and attacking close by¡±.

    As soon as this plan came out, the palace was abuzz with excitement. All the counselors were surprised and followed Jia Xu's plan one after another.

    A sneer flashed across Yan Liang's lips.

    Jia Xu¡¯s plan is exactly what he wants.

    He vaguely remembered that in the past, Sun Quan tried to contact Gongsun Kang's son Gongsun Yuan to buy good horses from Liaodong.

    "It's a pity that at that time, it was a foregone conclusion that Wei was strong and Wu and Shu were weak. Gongsun Yuan was jealous of Wei's power, and his repeated dishonesty made Sun Quan's idea come to nothing.

    Yan Liang had to admit that although Sun Quan was annoying.  But many of his ideas were very groundbreaking, such as sending troops to capture Yizhou, and going to Liaodong to buy horses.

    Several trade-offs.  Yan Liang decided.

    "Wen He's plan is very clever. I have decided to join forces with Gongsun Kang and purchase good horses from Liaodong. But I don't know who, dear friends, is on an envoy to Liaodong for me." Yan Liang glanced at the ministers and asked happily.  Tao.

    As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Yi Ji coming out of the queue immediately.  He cupped his hands and said, "I would like to go to Liaodong as an envoy to connect with Gongsun Kang for the king."

    The Yiji has quite a lot of diplomatic experience, so he went to Liaodong as an envoy.  Really the best candidate.

    Yan Liang was overjoyed. He immediately praised Yi Ji and explained the bottom line and strategy of connecting with Gongsun Kang.

    At the end, Yan Liang suddenly remembered something again.  Then he added: "It's not what Zeng reported. The two brothers Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi fled to Liaodong and defected to Gongsun Kang. Ji Bo is on an envoy this time. If he can bring these two Yuan back to the king, it will be a great achievement."  One piece.¡±

    Yi Ji didn¡¯t know what Yan Liang wanted the Yuan brothers for, but he didn¡¯t dare to ask any more questions, so he immediately accepted the order.

    Two yuan.  At that time, he was truly rich and handsome, but now he is like a lost dog.  Of course Yan Liang wanted to appreciate what it would be like for the Yuan brothers, who were of noble birth, to fall at his feet.

    What¡¯s more, there is a peerless beauty hidden in Yan Liang¡¯s bronze bird. The reason why Yan Liang has resisted touching her for many years is to make her surrender until she is convinced.

    The plan was decided. A few days later, Yi Ji led more than 20 ships and nearly 2,000 sailors from Yingtian. They first went east along the river, then turned north and headed for Liaodong by sea.

    Although Yan Liang had sea ships, it was still thousands of miles away from Jiangdong to Liaodong. Even if the journey was smooth, it would take a month or two to go back and forth. Yan Liang's Northern Expedition strategy could not be entirely pinned on Gongsun Kang.

    Therefore, after the Iraqi mission set off, Yan Liang continued to intensively prepare for the Northern Expedition.

    As the saying goes, before the troops and horses are moved, grain and grass go first. Large quantities of grain and grass are the first to be transported to the north by waterway.

    The soldiers and horses on the road also began to repair their weapons and prepare their luggage. They were waiting for the spring water to rise sharply and the rivers in the north to rise. Following Yan Liang's order, they could go north to the Central Plains by waterway.

    The various developments in Chu State could not be concealed from the details of Cao and Liu, who were scattered in the south of the Yangtze River.

    Soon after the Iraqi fleet set off from Yingtian, the detailed information was sent to Yecheng, thousands of miles away.

    ¡­¡­

    It was already three o'clock in the sky in the Yan Palace. In the palace, the King of Yan, Liu Bei, was still lying high.

    In the main hall, Zhuge Liang was pacing back and forth, the feather fan in his hand was no longer so cool, and there was a bit of anxiety on his handsome face.

    Zhuge Liang became a little uneasy after not seeing Liu Bei come out to handle official business for a long time.

    "Uncle, the king has been very late for several days. Is it possible that the king is feeling unwell?" Zhuge Liang couldn't help but ask.

    Chen Dao shook his head: "Your Majesty's bodyIt was so tight and there was no sign of any discomfort.  "

    "Since there is no discomfort, why haven't you come to deal with the memorial even though it's three o'clock in the morning?" Zhuge Liang asked curiously.

    Chen Dao glanced around and saw that his ears and eyes were far apart, so he whispered: "The military advisor doesn't know something. The king has been getting along very well with his new wife in recent days, so he gets up a little late every morning."

    The new lady?  Do you get along very well?

    Zhuge Liang was stunned for a moment, then understood and couldn't help but frown slightly.

    The new wife Chen Dao mentioned was none other than Liu Bei¡¯s new wife, Mrs. Liu, and this Mrs. Liu happened to be Yuan Shao¡¯s second wife.

    After Liu Bei captured Yecheng, he moved the center of his rule from Xuzhou to Yecheng, calling himself Queen Yan, and made Yecheng his capital.

    Obviously, with Liu Bei's knowledge, he naturally knew that Jizhou, a large state in Hebei, was far from comparable to Xuzhou, located in the east of the Central Plains, in terms of wealth and political influence.

    If Liu Bei wants to gain a firm foothold in Hebei, he must win the support of Hebei scholars. Liu is not only Yuan Shao's second wife, but also from a wealthy family in Hebei.

    Therefore, not long ago, at the suggestion of Sima Yi, Liu Bei took Liu as his wife. Firstly, he was marrying a scholar in Hebei, and secondly, he also wanted to appease Yuan Shao's old tribe.

    Although Mrs. Liu is married for the second time, she is only in her early thirties. She is quite handsome and has the most charming skills. She once seduced Yuan Shao and doted on him.

    How could Liu Bei withstand such a temptation? He soon became very fond of Mrs. Liu, almost every night, but gradually became indifferent to the original Mrs. Chen.

    As a Xuzhou native, Zhuge Liang was naturally displeased when he heard that Liu Bei favored the newcomers and neglected the old ones.

    "The king has arrived." As the eunuchs sang, Liu Bei, dressed in rich clothes, walked in.

    Zhuge Liang calmed down his thoughts and stepped forward to worship.

    "Commentary, please excuse me." Liu Bei ascended to a high rank, sat down slowly, and then asked, "I heard that the military advisor has something urgent to ask for. I wonder what the urgent matter is?"

    Zhuge Liang had no choice but to put his mind at ease for the time being and said: "Your Majesty, in recent days, we have been receiving reports of details from the south. It is said that the traitor Yan Liang is transporting grain and grass to the north in large numbers. He even sent a fleet to go there by water.  Liaodong is connected with Gongsun Kang. There are various signs that the Yan thieves are preparing to invade the north. It is a matter of great importance, so the king must make preparations early. "

    Hearing what Zhuge Liang said, Liu Bei's originally lazy expression suddenly showed a strange color.

    "Now that I have occupied the land of the five states, I have more than 200,000 armored men, thousands of cavalry, and even Cao Cao as a backup. I have not attacked the Yan bandits from the south. How dare the Yan bandits take the initiative to invade the north?  "

    The confident Liu Bei seemed unable to believe that Yan Liang had such courage and dared to take the initiative to go north to provoke.

    "Obviously, Liu Bei had forgotten that Yan Liang was best at chewing hard bones after not fighting against him for a long time.

    "The evidence is conclusive and absolutely correct. Moreover, Cao Cao is in danger of the Qinling Mountains. Most of the Yan thieves will not attack Guanzhong. If this thieves marches north, our country, Yan, will bear the brunt and be the target of its invasion." Zhuge Liang made a decisive judgment.

    Then, Zhuge Liang presented all the detailed information to Liu Bei.

    After Liu Bei carefully reviewed it, his brows became more and more serious. On his gray face, a cold murderous aura was rapidly gathering.

    Snapped!

    Liu Bei suddenly slapped the case, and said angrily: "Yan Liang, the dog thief, dares to attack on his own initiative. He really doesn't take this king seriously. This time, I will definitely make him never come back, and he will take the revenge of his previous defeats."  Wash the snow together."

    Liu Bei was angry. The humiliating scene of being forced by Yan Liang to write a letter of divorce reappeared in his mind.

    If Liu Bei at that time was still weak and could endure this humiliation, but now as the King of Yan, Liu Bei is already arrogant in the world. How can he endure this bad breath anymore.

    Seeing Liu Bei's anger, Zhuge Liang immediately said: "I thought that a battle between the king and Yan Liang would be inevitable. Instead of passively waiting for Yan Liang to attack, why would he join forces with Cao Cao and launch a combined attack on Yan Liang first? When the time comes, with the majesty of the king, we will surely defeat him."  You can defeat the Yan thief in one fell swoop.¡±

    "What the military advisor said is very true, but I don't know how the king should use his troops?" Liu Bei asked.

    Zhuge Liang's face immediately showed the heroic look of strategizing and guiding the country.

    "Although Huainan borders our Xuzhou, the area is densely covered with water networks and our army has no naval advantage, so we should not consider it for the time being. Only the Liangguo and Yingchuan lines are connected to our Yanzhou and penetrate into the hinterland of our Central Plains.  I am deeply aware of the danger, and I believe that if my lord sends his army south, he should first seize this place and drive the Yan bandits' forces out of the Central Plains."

      Zhuge Liang was eloquent and talked about his strategy, so he formulated a plan for Liu Bei to lead the main force of the Yan army southward and attack the important towns of Suiyang and Xudu from the front.

    As for Cao Cao, he asked him to attack Wuguan, threaten Nanyang, and contain Xu Du's front line rear.

    If necessary, Cao Cao can be ordered to attack Hanzhong from Guanlong, directly threatening Yan Liang's western border of Chu State.

    Liu Bei listened to Zhuge Liang's strategy and looked at the mountains and rivers of the Central Plains, his gray face becoming more and more excited.

    After listening to Zhuge Liang's strategy, Liu Beiteng stood up and said excitedly: "This strategy of the military advisor is really brilliant. Okay, I will send someone to contact Cao Cao right now. I will send troops south soon to make the Yan thief pay with his blood."  ¡±

    Liu Bei was murderous and determined to win, as if he could defeat Yan Liang if he joined forces with Cao Cao.

    " And Zhuge Liang's face was also full of confidence, and there was a bit of a cold smile in his eyes.

    "Yan Liang, Yan Liang, you took away my beloved woman, kidnapped my sister, and humiliated my eldest brother. It's finally time for you to repay the sworn hatred between me, Zhuge Liang, and you. This time, I, Zhuge Liang, swear that I will do it for you.  Get rid of this tyrant!"

    I just went to the hospital today for ultrasonic lithotripsy, and I will have an anti-inflammatory injection tomorrow. If the stone is discharged smoothly, I will try to resume the third shift the day after tomorrow.
