The emperor obviously wanted to move to the tomb, which was beyond doubt, but it was definitely not just moving to the tomb, but also the disposal of Lu Bu's family, which seemed to have a different meaning.

These are all major policies related to the foundation of the country, and their deep meanings are definitely very profound. To be honest, generals such as Guan Yu cannot get into the conversation at all. Not to mention the deep meaning, it is even difficult to understand the expression.

So after chatting for a while, Guan Yu could not bear it and said, "The army is fierce and dangerous. Your Majesty, why don't we study the war in Jingzhou first. Lu Bu has not yet established a stable foothold in Jingzhou, especially Su Qing is still resisting in Changsha. It is a great opportunity to restore Jingzhou in one fell swoop. Let's discuss military strategy first."

When everyone heard this, they nodded, and finally brought the topic back to the point.

"Wenpin has 20,000 troops in his hands, and his combat power is quite good. We didn't fight with Wenpin last year, so the elite is not a question, but in our court, it is actually of medium level. Let him launch a counterattack. As for food and supplies, our speed of pacifying Hebei is much faster than expected, and it saves a little, which is enough for us to send another reinforcement."

Guan Yu volunteered to say, "Your Majesty divides my 5,000 imperial guards. I will lead Pei Qian to lead 30,000 troops from Hedong and gather 50,000 troops to attack Yuqing and the north and south. Within three months, you should be able to take Xiangyang."

Upon hearing this, Xun Yue and Yang Biao and other civil officials unconsciously twitched their faces.

Good guy has another 50,000 troops. The battle has just been completed, and I finally have some foundation left. I am afraid that there is really no left at all.

When Liu Xie heard this, he shook his head quickly: "No, no, the soldiers just finished a big battle and stopped, and they still fought. Isn't this a military force?"

What I thought to myself was that this could not be fought. According to Guan Yu, he and Gao Shun attacked each other from the north and south, and taking advantage of Lu Bu's unstable foothold, the probability of this was probably quite high.

If Xiangyang is really taken over and Jingzhou, will the world be almost unified? My constitutional monarchy plan has just begun to take shape. If you do this, will my slutty operation become more difficult?

Seeing this, Xun Yue also said, "I also think that it is not appropriate to directly attack Xiangyang, General Guan, and 50,000 troops. In three months, can you really ensure that Xiangyang is taken down?"

"this……"

"It's not guaranteed. After all, the geographical conditions of Xiangyang are there. It can be said that it is the most difficult city for our Han Dynasty to attack. One man is the pass, and tens of thousands of people cannot open it. No matter how unstable the military morale is, it is impossible to go down in one go. Your Majesty, General Guan, in fact, except for Jingzhou, there is another place that is more important now."

"Oh? Where can it be more important than Jingzhou?"

"I think Yizhou is far more important than Jingzhou."

"Yizhou?"

"At present, Zhao Wei in Yizhou is in a rebellion, Liu Zhang is weak and incompetent, and the Yizhou land has been defeated. It is a god-given opportunity to take Yizhou. If we lead our troops to attack Jingzhou but fail to defeat it, it will be difficult for us to take it. Let's take a step back, even if Lu Bu does not go to take Yizhou, this Yizhou rebellion will be missed, whether Zhao Wei successfully changes hands or Liu Zhang successfully suppresses the rebellion, this opportunity will be missed. Yizhou is not easier to fight than Jingzhou!"

When everyone heard this, they nodded, all of whom felt it made sense, but Yang Biao and others couldn't help but frown.

Although it is indeed a good plan to take Yizhou,...

First of all, Guanzhong is really too desolate now. The entire Yongzhou is completely unmanned land, and the supply of food and grass along the way is probably also astronomical.

Secondly, you have to pass through Hanzhong to get Yizhou from Guanzhong. Hanzhong is now occupied by Zhang Lu. Who knows what Zhang Lu thinks? It would be fine if he surrendered directly. If he doesn't want to surrender, is Zhang Lu easy to fight?

There is no problem of not being able to fight, but the same thing is true: the court now has no money and food!

When Guan Yu heard this, he frowned and said, "It is certainly a good idea to take Yizhou, but Lingjun (Zhongshu Ling is also Lingjun), do we... care about Suqing? Then Huan Jie and Zhang Xian performed such loyal and righteous actions during the time of Guandu. Now Zhang Xian is dead, and there is nothing he can do, but Huan Jie is still alive. Does the court have the strength to abandon him?"

When everyone heard this, they nodded again.

The situation of Gao Shun and Huan Jie is too rare. Such loyal ministers must be established as typical examples. Even Zhang Xian, although he is dead, his family must be still there, and he must find a generous reward.

Liu Xie immediately nodded like a chicken pecking at rice and said, "It's not bad, it's not good, Yizhou cannot be beaten. The power of the court is limited. You have to eat rice bite at a time, and you have to do things one by one. The most urgent task at the moment is Gao Shun and Huan Jie, so you can't let the heroes bleed and cry."

You can't fight Yizhou. Not to mention whether you have money or not, what if Yizhou is pacified? Then the court will not have to fight Xiangyang. At that time, you can go straight to Jiangling City from the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, and then go down the river to pacify Jiangdong. Han Sui guessed that he would make an appointment. If it doesn't work, it would be too dangerous.

Guan Yu clasped his fists and said, "So Your Majesty, let's fight Xiangyang."

Liu Xie immediately shook his head again: "No, no, Xiangyang cannot be fought. The soldiers have been fighting for several months. It's too hard. Xiangyang is a strong city in the world. We still have to make a long-term plan."

"Then... can Suqing save him?"

"Of course I have to save it, so I can't let the heroes bleed and cry."

"this……"

Guan Yu will not do it now.

None of the others.

If Xiangyang doesn’t fight, Yizhou doesn’t fight. Gao Shun and Huan Jie still need to save him. How can we save him? Let the army fly over directly?

So as expected, everyone stared at Liu Xie.

Liu Xie also felt a little embarrassed.

Yes... How to fight this battle?

So Liu Xie looked at the map and thought hard.

What exactly is there a way to not fight and rescue Gao Shun and Huan Jie?

Suddenly, Liu Xie slapped his head and shouted: "Okay! We can go to Jiangxia. Look, here, from Nanyang to Jiangxia, isn't there a mountain pass here? It's quite wide."

"Well... Your Majesty means this...Suzao Pass that starts from Sui County?"

"Yes, yes, yes, right, it's here. If we don't go to Xiangyang, can we fight here be okay?"

After thinking about it, Sima Yi advised: "This... Your Majesty, if you walk on the Suzao Pass, firstly, the Xiangyang defenders can easily cut off our army's supplies and retreat routes with the cavalry. If a large army goes to war, there will be danger of destruction. Secondly, if you walk on the Suzao Pass, the road north of Anlu is narrow and not suitable for large army, especially not suitable for cavalry. As for the south of Anlu, there are rivers broken and dense, and there are swamps everywhere. Even infantry may be unable to move forward, and they cannot move a large army at all. This... this passage is really..."

"Well? The army is hard to move forward? The river net is broken and swamps are everywhere? OK! The military strategy is cloudy, and it is called to attack him unpredictably. Look, even you can't even think of us going to the Suizao passage. Did Lu Bu even think of this? I think, let's go through this passage and find a way to send a message to Gao Shun and Huanjie, so that they can find a way to meet with us. If the war is unfavorable, even if we give up the four counties of Changsha and Jingnan, we can still pick them up and their families."

After saying that, everyone looked at each other.

Is this a surprise?

This is called a lunatic!

The emperor has never been to Nanyang, he doesn’t know the terrain there, nor does he know the soldiers, how could he come up with such a bad idea?

Everyone was about to persuade him again, but Liu Xie immediately made a decision: "You guys don't need to persuade him anymore. This matter is decided! Order Wen Pin to launch a feint attack on Xiangyang immediately and tell him clearly that he is a feint attack, the real main force? But one thing is to block the cavalry in Xiangyang and prevent them from tracing our back road. Guan Yu, you immediately lead the imperial guards 5,000 and lead Pei Qianhe East soldiers as the main force to attack Jiangxia to support Gao Shun!"

After saying that, he became proud.

In fact, it is not just that no one took the Suzao Pass during the Three Kingdoms period. In the more than three thousand years of trust history, almost no northern regime took this route to attack the southern regime. Not only could the Xiangyang defenders send surprise troops to cut off their food routes, but they could also go from the south to Yundu and Nanxin, and give them two sides to attack.

Really bad idea.

But in fact, Liu Xie has been traveling through time for so long, and at least he has been in charge of the army several times. He is really not completely ignorant of the army. Doesn’t he know that this is a bad idea to walk through the Suzao Pass?

All you need is a bad idea!

Lu Bu finally mustered up the courage to rebel. How difficult is this? Shouldn’t he encourage others?

The first half of the Suizao Passage is covered with mountains and the second half is swamped, and the army is inconvenient to move forward. To be honest, when the army marched all the way from Sui County to Changsha, even with Wenpin's escort, the daylily will probably be cold by then.

At that time, the other end of Changsha will definitely be defeated, but with such a large army in Jiangxia, it will definitely be fine to pick them up and escape.

In this way, it will not help the battle situation and will not affect your abdication plan. It can also handle Gao Shun and Huan Jie back alive, not letting the heroes shed blood and cry, and you will not be condemned by conscience. It is great to kill two birds with one stone, and the best of both worlds is the best?

After looking at each other, everyone looked at each other with a look: the emperor used troops like a god, and this move must have profound meaning.
Chapter completed!
