Yang Fan turned to Dian Wei and asked, "Why are you doing evil, where has the Dragon and Tiger Guard gone?"

Dian Wei touched his bald head, thought for a while, and replied: "It should be almost time to Handan!"

Yang Fan nodded and said to Zhang Yan: "Zhang Yan, I have a very important task now. I want to hand it over to you. Do you dare to accept it?"

Zhang Yan's eyes sterned and said loudly: "Lord, please give an order. Even if it is a sea of ​​swords and fire, the general will never frown!"

Yang Fan said in a deep voice: "Zhang Yan, do you know why I asked Gao Shun to send troops to attack Anping Kingdom on October 25, and we only left Wuxian on November 1st?"

Zhang Yan shook her head and said, "I don't know!"

Yang Fan explained: "There is a Julu County between Zhao and Anping. Everyone knows that in Julu County, the rivers are intertwined, the terrain is complex, and it is extremely difficult to march. Naturally, Yuan Xi will be bound by conventional rules. If Gao Shun and others take the lead in launching an attack, Yuan Xi will send heavy troops south to resist Gao Shun's troops. At this time, the north of Anping will become empty. Just because our army is still in Julu County, Yuan Xi will be relieved and boldly sent troops south. If at this moment, a surprise attack suddenly occurs from the north of Anping, Yuan Xi will inevitably be in chaos, and Yuan's army will also be in chaos!"

Tian Feng said in confusion: "Lord, it's really wonderful to attack him by surprise. However, how should our army arrive in Wuxian on time? If the army goes directly north, it will definitely touch Yuan Xi and let him be wary of it."

Yang Fan smiled and said, "It depends on Zhang Yan's ability!"

Zhang Yan asked in confusion: "Lord, you are so confused!"

Yang Fan asked, "Everyone said that your Zhang Yan is as light as a swallow, and you can walk on flat ground in the rocky mountains. Is this matter serious?"

Zhang Yan replied confidently: "My son has grown up in the mountains since he was a child, and he has mastered this ability!"

Yang Fan nodded and said, "I intend to ask you to lead an army, go directly north from Zhao State to Changshan State, and then quietly take down Junxian from Changshan. Can you do it?"

Zhang Yan thought silently and smiled bitterly: "Do you want to arrive in Wuxian before October 20th?"

Yang Fan nodded and said, "That's right, at least, there will be a few days to attack the city and rest!"

Zhang Yan said embarrassedly: "If only one general of the army rushed to Changshan from this mountain and then to Wuxian, he might be able to arrive. However, it is difficult for ordinary soldiers to have the skills and physical strength of the army. At least, they need an elite force to barely do it!"

Yang Fan smiled and said, "That Zhang Yan, do you know the Dragon and Tiger Guard under my command?"

Zhang Yan's eyes lit up and she said enviously: "The Lord's Dragon and Tiger Guard is a warrior selected from hundreds of thousands of people in our army. The brothers in the army often joke that everyone in the Dragon and Tiger Guard is a hundred generals. His skills are naturally great! If it is the Dragon and Tiger Guard, the last general will have the confidence to give it a try!"

Yang Fan said proudly: "Zhang Yan, what you said is right. The Dragon and Tiger Guards under my command are all a hundred generals! When the Dragon and Tiger Guards arrive, you will lead 10,000 people and immediately go to Changshan. Remember, you can hide in the day and go out at night, so that outsiders can not know your whereabouts. Whether this plan can be done depends entirely on whether you can do it quietly! And in that Wu County, there are our army's supporters. If you rush to Wu County, you can disguise yourself in the city and find a family in the city, call it the "Zuixianlou" wine shop, find the shopkeeper, and tell him your purpose, then he will cooperate with you!"

Zhang Yan bowed and took the order and said, "The last general will receive the order! But, lord, if the last general has no token, how will they believe me?"

Yang Fan turned to Tian Feng and ordered: "Yuanhao, you will take Zhang Yan to the Zuixian Tower in the city later, and ask them to send a quick horse to inform the people from Wuxian, and at the same time make an agreement to make a token and a secret code!"

Tian Feng nodded and then led Zhang Yan away.

Looking at Zhang Yan's back as he left, Yang Fan murmured to himself, "Zhang Yan, I hope you don't let my expectations down. Winning and losing are here! It's up to you!"

At this moment, Gao Shun, Wei County, hundreds of miles away, also received Yang Fan's order.

Because the situation was urgent, Gao Shun did not dare to neglect and quickly called the leaders and generals of the battalions to discuss.

During this period, Gao Shun frowned and smiled bitterly: "Everyone, I guess everyone has finished reading the orders of the lord?"

Xu Chu was unmoved. Anyway, he was just obeying orders. Xu Chu generally refused to do such a brain-hardening thing, but Li Ru beside him lowered his head and said nothing, as if he was planning a plan.

Lu Bu took the lead and said, "My lord asked us to capture the entire Wei County before the fifth day of the 10th month, but now it is the second day of the lunar month. How can we finish the battle in three days? Even if we are galloping at a fast horse, it will take three days, right?"

Zhang He smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, there are still Fanyang, Yin'an, Wei County, Yuancheng, Qiqiu, Pingsi, Qingyuan, and Guantao County without any attacks. How can you fight within three days?"

Gao Shun turned his head to look at Guo Jia, Xun Chen and asked, "I wonder what the two military advisors have?"

Guo Jia smiled and said, "Everyone, although the lord wants us to capture Wei County before the fifth day of the 10th month, the lord wants us to launch an attack on Anping State from Guangchuan County of Qinghe Country on October 25th! In fact, we only need to capture Wei County and Qinghe Country before October 25th."

Thinking about this, there are still twenty-three days left, which is very urgent for Gao Shun and the others. After all, with the seven counties of Qinghe Country, Gao Shun will conquer fifteen counties within these twenty-three days, nearly a thousand miles from east to west, which is also a arduous task.

After hearing this, Gao Shun's eyes lit up, but after he carefully considered it, he turned into a bitter face and sighed: "Even if there are still twenty-three days left, these fifteen cities will only take less than two days to capture each city. Otherwise, they will not be able to complete the lord's general order!"

Xun Chen analyzed: "If our army fought three cities in two days, it would only take ten days to complete it."

Guo Jia was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled and said, "Yes, what Youruo said is right. Only by dividing troops can our army complete the mission assigned by the Lord's Bus!"

Li Ru said weakly: "If we divide the troops, then the food and supplies of our army will become a burden. If the front line is lengthened, the soldiers and horses on the front line will face no food to eat!"

Xun Chen thought something, and Guo Jia was also stunned. Only Lu Bu was careless and saw him say, "What's the difficulty? After conquering a city, collect food and grass on the spot. As long as we don't make things difficult for the people, the lord will not say anything!"

Gao Shun laughed and said, "What Fengxian said is reasonable. Those aristocratic families and powerful families have bullied the people for many years, so they should have given them some blood! Why not do it according to Fengxian's wishes! Let's find those aristocratic families and buy grain."

After the food and grass problem was solved, the next thing to discuss was how to divide the troops. These fifteen cities were not just cities. In the eyes of Lu Bu, Zhang He and others, they were real military achievements and the reliance for promotion to generals in the future.

Seeing that everyone was staring at him intently, Gao Shun quickly exchanged views with Guo Jia and Xun Chen, and decided to divide his 60,000 troops into three groups, Lu Bu, Xu Chu and Zhang He each led his troops to attack Wei County and Qinghe County in three groups.

Considering the heavy number of soldiers and infantry and cavalry in each school, Gao Shun decided to ask Lu Bu to lead his army to attack the five counties of Ling County, Zheng County, Yimu, Dongwu City and Guangchuan in Qinghe Kingdom, which were also the five counties farthest away from them; Zhang He led his army to attack the two counties of Ganling and Beiqiu in Qinghe Kingdom, as well as the three counties of Qingyuan, Pingsi and Guantao in Wei County; and Xu Chu's troops were all infantry, so they attacked the five counties of Fanyang, Yin'an, Wei County, Yuancheng and Qiqiu.

Xu Chu raised an eyebrow at Lu Bu and provocatively said, "How is it, Lu Fengxian, dare to make a bet with me to see who completes the task first!"

Lu Bu said angrily: "Xu Zhongkang, don't sit and talk, don't have a back pain. The city closest to me is seven or eight hundred miles away to me! And the farthest one is just Yuancheng 200 miles away, so I will not be fooled!"

Xu Chu laughed and said, "You are all cavalrymen, and I am all under my command. You dare not bet against me?"

Lu Bu was already arrogant and gritted his teeth and shouted: "Xu Zhongkang, don't look down on others, I will bet on you!"

Xu Chu rubbed his hands and laughed, "Okay, just bet on two months of wine. How about it? If you lose, give me all the wine you have for the next two months!"

Lu Bu gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! How do you bet?"

Xu Chu smiled and said, "Of course we are betting on the time when we complete our tasks. I will not take advantage of you. Seeing that you are all cavalrymen under your command, you will be unable to attack the city, so I will give you three days."

Lu Bu glanced at Gao Shun and asked, "What does it mean? Do you have to stay in Neihuang County for three days before you leave?"

At this time, Li Ru smiled and said, "Just as General Lu said, our mission city is nearby. If you need equipment to siege, you naturally have to wait for supplies. The fastest batch of arms of our army will not be delivered to Neihuang in three days."

When Lu Bu was stunned when he heard this, he said intimately, "I'm sorry. He just thought about making a bet with Xu Chu, but he forgot about this. Now his target city is the farthest, and the military's materials are obviously no longer expected. He can only rely on some simple ropes or fraud to complete the task.

Gao Shun seemed to have also considered it. He immediately ordered Guo Jia and Xun Chen: "Fengxiao, Youruo, you two will go to Zhang He and Lu Bu's army to assist them in the attack of the city."

Guo Jia then stood up and smiled at Lu Bu, "Brother Fengxian, then I will follow you!"

Lu Bu replied angrily: "My daughter married Huang Xu, and your boy married Han Sheng's daughter. In this way, I'm still a generation older than you! No big or small!"

Guo Jia's face froze, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and said with a sneer: "We all talk about our own things, and we all talk about our own things!"
