238 Gongsun Zan's Ambition 1

Yan Gang was originally a person with low intelligence, a reckless man. After hearing Guan Jing's words, he immediately said: "Lord, we should fight down Dai County and Shanggu in one go. I heard that the two counties were very wealthy. It was just before the New Year that Taishici sent people to Youzhou to buy a large amount of grain and snatched all the grain and grass in Youzhou. If our army obtained Dai County and Shanggu, there would be a large amount of grain and grass there, and the lack of food and grass in our army could be solved."

After hearing this, Tian Yu shook his head. Is it that easy? That was the territory of Big Bear, a hero on the northern prairie. Xianbei Tartars were frightened when they heard Big Bear. You all thought they were soft-boys. "Lord, our army cannot fight Big Bear. Dai County, Shanggu Da Bear has 50,000 troops stationed in Shanggu Da Bear, and its defense capabilities such as cities and levels have been greatly strengthened. Once our army cannot quickly capture these two counties, Big Bear will have time to draw troops to support Dai County and Shanggu, and our army will be in danger. Don't talk about whether our army can beat Big Bear's army, even if we are food and grass, our army will not support long-term combat. As long as we fall into an intertwined state, our army will be in chaos without fighting. At that time, Youzhou will be in danger." Tian Yu said to Gongsun Zan.

After hearing everyone's words, Wangmen said, "Lord, I think our army is now attacking Dai County, and Shanggu is a good opportunity. Now Lu Ning's army is fighting the decisive battle with the Huns Allied Forces. Lu Ning cannot send troops to support Taishici. Moreover, according to information, Lu Ning only has 50,000 troops to fight the 150,000 Huns Allied Forces. He also left 30,000 troops in Jinyang to prevent Wang Kuang from Hanoi and Yuan Shao's army temporarily stationed in Hanoi. Can Lu Ning's 50,000 troops defeat the 150,000 cavalry of the fierce Huns Allied Forces? Isn't this a joke? Emperor Wu passed through several generations of people back then.

The preparation was to send two or three hundred thousand troops to defeat the Huns and Tartars. Now Lu Ning wanted to fight against the Huns' coalition with just a small Bingzhou. This is a bit of a fantasy. 50,000 versus 150,000, the comparison of military strength will be at a disadvantage. Moreover, facing the Huns' cavalry, I decided that Lu Ning was eight or nine out of ten thousand. As long as Lu Ning failed the decisive battle between the Huns, then Lu Ning would be finished. Don’t say that the Huns' cavalry would not let him go, even Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao, and Wang Kuang next to him would also pounce on Bingzhou together. Does Lu Ning still have a place to settle down? Now our army is attacking Dai County, Shanggu is a good time."

After listening to Wang Sect's analysis, Gongsun Zan was very happy. His younger brother Gongsun Yue kept nodding. Gongsun Yue immediately continued, "Brother, I also think this is a good time to attack Dai County and Shanggu. Although there are 50,000 Taishi Ci's army in these two places, our army has a total of more than 160,000 troops after reorganizing Liu Yu's prisoners. Could it be that our army can't defeat Taishi Ci's 50,000 troops? Besides, Taishi Ci's army is scattered in the second county. Our army first defeated Shanggu and then attacked Dai County. Then our army's chances of victory are obvious."

Guan Jing felt very arrogant after hearing the two of them. Is Lu Ning so easy to deal with? During the alliance of princes, the soldiers under Lu Ning made the princes look at each other differently, and their strength was not blown out. Guan Jing glanced at the civil and military officials and said, "You are really sure to defeat Lu Ning's army. Don't forget how powerful the soldiers under Lu Ning were during the Battle of Hulao Pass? The generals under Lu Ning were not extremely brave, and the soldiers were all elite troops. In this country, the Big Bear Army in Shanggu was not as good as Liu Yu's army."

After hearing Guan Jing's words, Gongsun Fan laughed loudly and said, "Mr. Guan was scared by Lu Bu at Hulao Pass. There is no need to be afraid. The people stationed in Dai County and Shanggu are not Zhang Liao, Dian Wei, and Taishi Ci has been fighting with the Xianbei cavalry of the Kebineng tribe for many years, but he is still an unknown person. What is Mr. Guan afraid of?"

After hearing this, Tian Yu shook his head and said, "Lord, Lu Ning is in control of Dai County. Shanggu is the late emperor's order. It is not right to attack him. Besides, Lu Ning is not easy to deal with than Liu Yu. Although Taishici has not gone to Hulao Pass and is not very famous, Taishici has been stationed in the second county for many years and has been fighting with the Xianbei cavalry of the Kebineng tribe for many years. In fact, its strength cannot be underestimated. Those who can reassure Lu Ning that they are not easy to deal with. Lu Ning's Flying Bear Army and the Brutal Bear Army under Lu Ning are both elite troops and are not easy to deal with. I personally think it's better to wait for a while to see the result of the decisive battle between Lu Ning and the Huns before deciding whether to attack these two places. There is no need to rush to send troops now."

Gongsun Zan also felt correct after hearing Tian Yu's words. Although he also felt that the decisive battle between Lu Ning and the Huns coalition was a little bit bad, for the sake of safety, Tian Yu's words were correct. At this time, Yan Gang said: "Lord, Tian Yu's words are not trustworthy. Now is the best time for our army to attack Daijun and Shanggu. Once Lu Ning and the Huns coalition failed in the decisive battle, the Bingzhou areas under Lu Ning's system would definitely be annexed by princes such as Yuan Shao, Dong Zhuo, and Wang Kuang. By then, Lu Ning and his generals could only wander to Daijun and Shanggu. Once the three northern poisonous wolves under Lu Ning and Dian Wei and others arrived in Daijun, after Shanggu, our army would just want to attack."

After hearing this, Guan Jing praised Gongsun again: "My lord, never, let alone whether the Huns coalition can defeat Lu Ning's army. If our army attacks Dai County, will there be no casualties in the Shanggu County? Heizi, the general stationed in Dai County, has always been by Lu Ning, and his loyalty is nothing to say. Taishici's mother is Lu Ning's godmother. Our army can only fight to the end. Heizi and Taishici will never surrender. The Lu Ning army guarding the city has 50,000, and our army will definitely suffer huge casualties when attacking. Even if our army fights bloodyly, regardless of losses, after conquering these two areas, we will probably not have many soldiers left. How can the lord bear the surrounding lord army, and Gongsun Du from Liaodong. Now Gongsun Du is king and independent, and he has long been aimed at Youbeiping. The lord is not afraid that Gongsun Du will bite his lord from behind."

When Gongsun Zan heard this, yes, what if Gongsun Du took advantage of the attack on my Beiping at this time? The voice of his brother Gongsun Yue came to his ears. Gongsun Yue said, "Brother, as long as our army conquers Dai County and goes up to the valley, we have money and food, are we afraid of not being able to recruit soldiers? As for Gongsun Du in Liaodong, as long as our army has 30,000 troops in Youbeiping, then Gongsun Du has no choice. He will not dispatch all the 100,000 troops under his command, then his Liaodong will not be defended."

In this way, Gongsun Zan and his civil and military officials were quarreling all day long, and both sides refused to give in and said everything. This made Gongsun Zan so big that he couldn't make up his mind for a while. In addition, Gongsun Zan was a stubborn person, and he was already suspicious, but now both sides had reason. He couldn't make up his mind for a while. In addition, Gongsun Zan was a stubborn person. He was originally suspicious, but now both sides had reason for it, so he couldn't make up his mind for a while.
