After hearing Zhang Fei's complaint, Xu Shu immediately suggested to Lan Tian: "Although I am not worried about the safety of Jiangling, Ziyu has been blocked by Lu Xun in Jingnan for a long time. There will be a shortage of food and grass on the front line of Fancheng. If the situation is not broken, the morale of the front line troops will be chaotic."

"There is still a way to solve the food and grass problem. I wrote to Zidu (Meng Da) to send troops from Shangyong. If Jingzhou's food and grass cannot be provided in the short term, it may be temporarily allocated from the three eastern counties. However, according to General Lan's previous speculation,

There is also Sun Quan's naval force on the Han River, and he is very worried that the connection between Jiangling and Fancheng will be interrupted. The family members of the lieutenant general and the military commander are all in Jiangling. If rumors spread, there may be a mutiny..." Fazheng frowned.

After the two military advisors finished speaking, Pang De and Gao Shun did not speak. At this time, they had to wait for Lan Tian to conclude his speech.

Lan Tian looked around at everyone and asked seriously: "You all suggest a strong attack?"

"Yes, yes, I'm most annoyed by these cowering turtles." Zhang Fei shouted.

"Ziyu, I understand that it is not easy to train the trapped troops. A strong attack may cause them great damage. But at this point, there is no better way. Unless someone can transfer Lu Xun's navy, there is absolutely no way to end this matter. Sun Quan is

If we are determined to launch a sneak attack this time, we should break the deadlock first." Xu Shu continued to suggest.

The trapping army has a special relationship with Lantian. The outsiders Fazheng and Pang De are not in a position to suggest it. The leaders of the trapping army, Gao Shun and Xu Shuang, will not take the initiative to make suggestions. Only Xu Shu has a close relationship with Lantian, and because he himself has no

What faction bond can make him give advice without restraint than Zhang Fei?

Lan Tian suddenly had an inspiration when he heard this. Who said that the direction of the war must be decided on the battlefield?

"Boping, Shanyue surrendered his troops and said that Sun Quan was supervising the battle in Jiangxia?" Lan Tian did not answer Xu Shu's words, but changed the topic and turned to ask Gao Shun.

Gao Shun nodded, "Yes, they have used all their main forces to attack Jingzhou this time. Sun Quan is not worried and will leave them all to Lu Meng and Lu Xun. Jiangxia currently has more than 20,000 troops left."

After hearing this, Lan Tian snapped and said, "Very good, God is helping me, let's surround Wei and save Zhao, and use Sun Quan's help to let Lu Xun evacuate on his own initiative."

Surrounding Wei and rescuing Zhao? Everyone in the big tent, including Gao Shun and Xu Shuang, all showed puzzled expressions.

"Ziyu, how can we surround Wei and rescue Zhao?" Xu Shu asked.

Lan Tian explained: "I want to divide an army to attack Jiangxia. Sun Quan never thought that the rear could be attacked, so he would naturally send people to ask Lu Xun, who was closest, to come back for reinforcements. If Lu Xun withdraws all of them, we will not be able to kill him. If we just withdraw, we will not die."

Part of it, I will swallow up the rest of his troops."

Xu Shu quickly dissuaded him: "Although this plan is good, it is not feasible. The city of Jiangxia is strong and there are 20,000 defenders. The total troops in Ziyu are only more than 20,000, and they do not carry siege equipment. No matter how many troops and horses they send, they will not be able to contain it.

The effect is not as good as if I mobilized all the 10,000 surrendered soldiers and used them as the vanguard to attack Lu Xun, which might reduce the losses of the trapped troops."

Lantian was stunned when he heard this, and drove the slaves to prepare for the front attack. This was Temujin's usual tactics. Commander Xu's thinking was really advanced.

"War with soldiers is the next priority, and war with the heart is the priority. Sun Quan is a jealous and suspicious person. At this time, all the main forces in Jiangdong are outside. If he sends people to Jiangxia to spread rumors, he will say that Lu Meng and Lu Xun were instigated by the lord to rebel. This time he deliberately took away Jiangdong's soldiers and horses.

, but the purpose is to replace that blue-eyed one." Lan Tian explained with a smile.

Fa Zheng first nodded in agreement, and then raised his own question: "General Lan's plan is very good, but the foreign king will not accept his orders. Even if Sun Quan is suspicious and asks Lu Xun to come back for help, will Lu Xun really obey his words?"

"Lu Meng may disobey the general's order, but Lu Xun will definitely go back. Don't forget that the surviving Lu clan members are still in Jiangdong. If he dares not to go back to save him, do you think Sun Quan will learn from Sun Ce?" Lan Tian smiled leisurely.

"I think it's feasible." Fazheng looked at Xu Shu and said.

Xu Shu twirled his beard and nodded, "I am not as good as Ziyu when it comes to human nature and general trend deduction. Since you are so sure that your plan will succeed, I will stay here for you to contain Lu Xun. Ziyu should send troops to Jiangxia as soon as possible."

Lan Tian shook his head and replied: "There are three to four hundred miles to Jiangxia. The trapped troops are wearing heavy armor and are not suitable for long-distance attacks. I plan to let the cavalry go first, and then General Xu will lead new troops to respond. As for the 10,000 surrendered soldiers in Changsha, it will be just right."

Send them supplies."

"Cavalry? Will you have me this time?" Zhang Fei was afraid that he would be missing.

"Yide, I will order Minghe's cavalry to go first, and I will take you as the vanguard general." Lan Tian said solemnly.

Happiness came so suddenly, Zhang Fei jumped up excitedly, "Okay, okay, I just like fighting with Ziyu, it's really refreshing and fun."

Lan Tian turned to Fazheng and said: "Strong Advisor is going with General Xu's rear team. If we encounter special circumstances, it would be nice to have you as staff."

"It is our duty to serve our lord and Jingzhou." Fazheng stood up and bowed his hands in salute.

"Ling Ming, prepare quickly and set off immediately. The people from the reconnaissance camp will be one step ahead. It's up to them to spread rumors." Lan Tian continued to give instructions.

"Wei." Pang De clasped his fists.

After Lantian had arranged everything, Zhang Fei, Pang De, Fazheng, and Xu Shuang all went out to make preparations. Xu Shu also asked him to resign and return to Linxiang. At the same time, he provided the logistics for the two groups of troops. He had to go back and explain again.

At this time, only Gao Shun and his 10,000 trapped troops were left around Lantian.

"Sir, actually you don't have to go to such trouble. If the enemy troops attack regardless of losses, they can definitely capture Lu Xun's dry village." Gao Shun stood behind Lan Tian and expressed his gratitude. He was more worried about outsiders saying that his enemy troops were special.

Lan Tian turned around and responded with a smile: "It's not that I don't want to attack by force, so what if you occupy the dry village? If we can't deal with Lu Xun's navy, our main force will never be able to cross the river. We can't really do it like Chu Qing's scouts.

Swim to the other side?"

When he first met Lu Xun in Dongting, Lan Tian knew that the person in front of him was difficult to deal with. It wasn't because of how powerful his strategy was or how superb his tactics were, but because the opponent was very cautious, so it would be difficult for those who were willing to defend themselves to win quickly.

The entrance to Dongting was blocked, but Lantian did not give up because of this. He asked Chu Qing to pick dozens of scouts, cross the Xiangshui River and the Yangtze River at night, and let these scouts take their own tokens and detour to the police and Jiangling respectively. These scouts

The soldiers could requisition the people's mules and horses, so after crossing the river, each of them showed their special abilities.

"Then why are you so sure that Lu Xun will leave? If he knew that Sir had divided his troops in Jiangxia, he might have directly sent troops to counterattack. Then the trapped troops would be able to show off their skills." Gao Shun clenched his fist loudly.

Lan Tian smiled slightly: "Bo Ping, you will send someone to inform Lu Xun soon, saying that we will divide our troops in Jiangxia soon."

"What? How can anyone take the initiative to reveal their motives? The effect of a surprise attack will not be achieved." Gao Shun asked in surprise.

Lan Tian replied seriously: "Just do as I say. You're not asking me why I am so sure? It's because I can figure things out."

"Ah?" Others don't know about Lantian, but Gao Shun is quite clear about it. He has never seen Lantian divination once.
