Chapter 658: Strategic Points
Under the surprise gaze of the players, Hua Xiong quickly left the battlefield with his personal soldiers without looking back. Although the players were unwilling to accept it, they still did not dare to act rashly in front of the person who could defeat Hua Xiong with one move. On the contrary, the players in the Kanto camp were all ready to move. If one is not good, the players in the Dong Zhuo camp will be in trouble.
So the awakened guy immediately turned his head and chased Hua Xiong and ran away. When the rest saw that the situation was wrong, they retreated one after another. Then the players in the opposite camp turned around and retreated.
Although the players in the Kanto camp were willing to chase, the core characters on the battlefield were just sitting on the horse and watching quietly, and they didn't have the courage to chase them on their own.
"Who is this awesome man?!"
"I don't know, but I heard from the person who arrived earlier that this guy is Fang Zhiwen's subordinate!"
"I am Fang Zhiwen's subordinate again, this guy cheats! How come there are so many powerful generals who can defeat Hua Xiong with one move, and you can count them with one hand!"
"Haha, I guess it's either Huang Zhong or Wei Yan! I didn't see him using a knife!"
"Tsk, you're ignorant. Someone heard it just now. Hua Xiong talked about General Huang, and said that he could compete with Lu Bu. Who else could he have if he wasn't Huang Zhong!"
"It's really Huang Zhong!? It's amazing! The arrow god!! My idol is awesome!"
"I said, aren't you a fan Zhao?"
"What's wrong? You can't worship Huang Zhong at the same time! Do you care? You."
"Damn, who is patient with you, a slap guy? You are a fight against the five scumbags!"
"Damn. You are just four-point one, get out! I don't have a friend like you!"
Just as the players were talking about Huang Zhong's identity, Sun Jian and Ji Ling finally arrived after they met. The brigade of cavalry rushed into the battlefield. Although the momentum was scary, unfortunately, they could only see a shadow of Hua Xiongjun. They couldn't catch up!
Ji Ling looked at the gradually disappearing enemy army regretfully, and his dissatisfied eyes swept at the middle-aged general who was leisurely looking at him. He drove his horse forward and couldn't even bow. He spoke directly:
"This General Huang is right? Why didn't you stop Hua Xiong just now?"
Ji Ling asked Huang Zhong arrogantly as soon as he came up, but Huang Zhong raised his eyelids calmly. He pointed at Sun Jian with his finger and said, "My lord has an order and ordered me to see what happened. If necessary, I will help Sun Taishou, and didn't ask me to fight with Hua Xiong. This General Ji, right? You should ask Sun Taishou first. Did he ask me to entangle Hua Xiong? Moreover, I only have two thousand brothers here, so how can I entangle Hua Xiong, who even General Ji dare not fight against? Haha, I am really sorry! Since Sun Taishou is nothing now, I will say goodbye first! The whole army sets back to the camp!"
Huang Zhong was not even a bird, Ji Ling, and he waved his horse whip and walked around Ji Ling's troops with the elite Youzhou cavalry and rumbling towards the east. Ji Ling was so angry that he almost bit his teeth. Unfortunately, the little bit of momentum that Huang Zhong intentionally or unintentionally released just now made Ji Ling understand that he was not Huang Zhong's opponent at all. He didn't expect that Fang Zhiwen was really a powerful general!
"Hmph! The ignorant army, the prefect of Sun, quickly gather the defeated troops, let's look forward."
"Okay!"
He looked at Huang Zhong and led his troops away with some envy. He looked at Cheng Pu, covered in blood and depressed faces beside him, and Sun Jian sighed helplessly and began to clean up the troops and continue to search for the whereabouts of Han Dang, Huang Gai and Zu Mao... When Huang Zhong returned to the camp, it was not dawn, but the soldiers had already gotten up to prepare breakfast. The whole camp was filled with the fragrance of food, especially the familiar barbecue and meat smell, which was even more attractive.
"Well, the lord is barbecuing again!" Huang Zhong murmured to himself, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Huang Zhong had already learned the whole story from Zhao Yun about his lord being obsessed with barbecue and fishing.
It is said that barbecue is to please his girls and wives, and fishing is to bet against Jiang Qin, the left general of the Navy.
Huang Zhong stepped into the tent of the Central Army and saw a group of people drinking tea around charcoal fire. Unfortunately, they couldn’t drink alcohol. Otherwise, what a pleasure would be to eat fragrant barbecue and warm spirits on this cold night!
"Hansheng is back. Come and sit down and bake it yourself and eat it yourself! Haha."
Fang Zhiwen did not ask Huang Zhong what the outcome was. Obviously, Fang Zhiwen was very relieved to Huang Zhong. Huang Zhong was relieved, but he still replied with a smile: "Thank you, lord, my subordinates have rescued Sun Jian, defeated Hua Xiong, and forced him to retreat to Hulao Pass. You can pay the order!"
"Haha, don't worry, eat something to warm up your body first. I naturally know Hansheng's ability, just a few trivial things."
"The lord is praised!"
"Xiangxiang, pour tea for Hansheng! Yuanzhi, you continue."
Fang Zhiwen smiled and patted Huang Zhong on the shoulder, and connected the topic to what he was discussing just now.
Xu Shu swallowed the barbecue in his mouth, licked the oil stains on the corner of his mouth, and said slowly: "Sir, instead of consuming here, we might as well take the lead in finding a place that is more suitable for business."
Fang Zhiwen's eyes lit up and he nodded and asked, "Well, it makes sense, so where is the place more suitable for business? Also, what is the business that Yuanzhi refers to?"
Everyone's eyes turned to Xu Shu together. Even Huang Zhong, who was taking the barbecue fork, focused his eyes on Xu Shu's face. Xu Shu's face was a little red under the reflection of the fire, and there was a little sweat on his forehead. I don't know if it was because of the heat or because of eating barbecue.
"Sir, you have to look at these two questions in reverse. If you answer the latter one first, you will naturally have an answer to the first one!"
Xu Shu's words made everyone nod their heads frequently. This is the problem of thinking methods. If the method is wrong, the more you think, the more complicated it will become, and eventually you will get into the slightest point. On the contrary, if the method is correct, the complex problem will become simple, which is really a gain of insight!
Fang Zhiwen grinned and signaled Xu Shu to continue.
"The business I just mentioned should be found from our set strategic goals. If you want to get something from the Battle of the Central Plains, then we will start our business with these goals."
Xu Shu's words connected the matter up and down. Things that seemed confused and disorderly became organized, and thoughts that seemed abrupt also became natural.
"There are two directions for weakening the power of the Central Plains clans. The first is division, and the second is disintegration. As the theory of differentiation, the split of the Central Plains clans has now been divided into two ethnic groups, Guandong and Guanzhong, which is the first step of division. Next, due to Yuan Wei's death, the Yuan brothers' separation will be seen. As the war between Guandong and Guanzhong clans tends to ease, the conflicts within the Kanto clans may be further expanded. Do you agree with this?"
Xu Shu stripped his silk and described the root of the chaos in the Central Plains clearly in a few simple sentences, and even his future direction was explained.
Fang Zhiwen responded with a smile: "Identify that the aristocratic races in Guanzhong will also be differentiated. The role of the leader lies in unity. If you lose an excellent leader, no matter how powerful the power is, it will only be a mess."
Xu Shushen nodded with approval and continued: "Since differentiation has become a fact, let's take a look at the disintegration. If we want to completely disintegrate the deeply rooted aristocratic tribes, there is only one way to remove the firewood from the bottom of the pot! The basis for survival of aristocratic tribes is population and land. As long as there is no unity around them and the population existence that needs to rely on the aristocratic tribes to maintain survival, the power of the aristocratic tribes will naturally be reduced to a level that is acceptable."
Everyone suddenly realized that this was going to plunder the population! Then everyone who realized it turned their attention to Fang Zhiwen. This lord with the lack of population syndrome probably rushed to Zhongyuan for this point.
"What do you think I'm doing? This is what Xu Shu said."
Fang Zhiwen stared at her eyes and resisted, and Xu Shu said innocently: "I'm just talking, but it's the lord who made the decision!"
"hehe"
Everyone couldn't help laughing together, and Fang Zhiwen curled his lips helplessly.
"Okay, everyone should understand here. Our business is population! So, we should find a place that can gain more population. Of course, we cannot publicly plunder the population, but someone can plunder it, and it can also plunder it openly!"
Xu Shu said with a strange smile, Fang Zhiwen nodded with a slightest slightest, while others were thinking.
"So, what do you value Yuanzhi?"
"We just want to do business, but we don't want to fight the Guanzhong clan for the Kanto clan, or vice versa. Therefore, we need a place that is both crucial and can match our current identity as the anti-Dong camp, but will not over-strike Dong Zhuo. And we are in this place, Dong Zhuo will feel uncomfortable, but the price of attack is too high. If he would rather pay a certain price to buy peace, then our purpose will be achieved!"
Xu Shu had a reserved smile on his face. This idea seemed simple, but how many people could think of this?
Fang Zhiwen was naturally very happy. He was not only happy about Xu Shu's ability, but also because Xu Shu took the initiative to give advice for himself, which shows that Xu Shu has recognized his own identity as the Deputy Chief of Staff!
"So, this is a good place that the Deputy Chief of Staff must have a vassal case?" Fang Zhiwen asked with a smile, narrowing his eyes.
Xu Shu curled his lips dissatisfiedly and said, "It's the military!"
After saying that, Xu Shu stood up, patted the charcoal ash on his robe, slowly walked to the edge of the map on the hanger, pointed to the map and pointed: "I think this place is very good, which is the best place for our army's strategic needs, and it is a good place to advance and retreat here!"
Everyone looked at Xu Shu's fingertips. Under the slightly dim light, everyone clearly saw the three small red characters. Except for the Fang Zhiwen, everyone couldn't help but be stunned. This place is very interesting or surprising. But if you think about it carefully, it does meet the elements Xu Shu mentioned just now. This place is indeed the place that can best achieve the strategic purpose of Fang Zhiwen, and there is no doubt about it.
On the map of Miyun, red represents pass, and these three amazing small words are "Hangu Pass"!
