Zhang Shizhao obviously realized that his expression was noticed, and he couldn't hide it, so he laughed dryly: "I thought of it a little bit, but to be honest, it's just an idea, and it's completely different from your idea."

"But I have something to think about, and I would like to hear something." Across the light, Li Shu sincerely requested. "Please teach me, Mr. Zhang."

"Actually, it's very simple." Zhang Shizhao sighed. "And I can't say who I'm dealing with. It's at most a half-measure to delay your attack. Plus you're so sincere, so I'll say it, but only in this room..."

"This is natural." Li Shu assured hurriedly.

"Li Longtou, the most difficult strategy in the world is conspiracy, do you understand?"

"certainly."

"And I just said that the so-called intelligence is vision, knowledge and so on...right?"

"right."

"Then why don't we raise our horizons... The gang has already obtained the land of eight counties. Although these eight counties are the farthest ends of the three largest ruling cores of the imperial court, they are like so-called natural cracks. But taking these eight counties is still

In fact, cutting open Wei's belly will cause a violent reaction throughout the world, accelerating the collapse of Wei, and everyone around will step up their actions."

"That's true."

"Then, the next situation of the gang is not just about doing what the inside wants, but also taking into account the general trend of the outside world."

"That's right... So Du Po Zhen has been forced to start an uprising, and things are going to change in Huaixi..."

"Let's not talk about Du Po Zhen for now." Zhang Shizhao put his hands together and spoke seriously. "Let me ask you something. Time waits for no man. If you don't hit others, others may come to fight. So if you don't care about any specific changes, just say that you follow your own rules.

Where should the Strong Principle Gang go next?"

"Of course it's Jiang Huai, but Du Po Zhen, I..."

"It's not Jianghuai, it's Xuzhou." Zhang Shizhao pointed out a place name and made a correction.

"It's Xuzhou." Li Shu suddenly realized. "It's Xuzhou!"

"It's Xuzhou." Zhang Shizhao analyzed calmly. "The upper half of the Jishui River Basin is flat, and the second half is slightly hilly. The land is fertile and the commerce is accessible. There are also minerals in Lu County and Langya as backup. Basically, you have what you need, but the terrain

It is long and narrow, and there is only a big river in the north that can serve as a support. So if you want to maintain stability, you must take down two places as important fulcrums... One is Dengzhou in the east, which has been taken, and the other is

Xuzhou below the waist and abdomen has not been moved yet. Taking Jianghuai, or Huaixi, is still intended to surround Xuzhou. Only by taking Xuzhou, the eastern border will be complete, and it will be possible to advance towards Kinki and try to truly overthrow

The Wei Dynasty established a new dynasty."

Li Shu nodded heavily, but felt something was wrong.

"But is Xuzhou so easy to get?" Zhang Shizhao continued to ask, and asked and answered himself. "It is not easy to get, even difficult. On the surface, Xuzhou is an important town hanging alone on the north bank of the Huai River. Han Yingong ran away again.

Sima Zhenghe only has 20,000 soldiers, so he is still recruiting new soldiers... But in fact, the saint is not stupid, and he is too smart. He actually knows better than anyone else that Xuzhou is the north gate of Jiangdu, but now he only cares about it.

Jiangdu is a comfortable place, so once the war starts, he will immediately support Xuzhou without reservation. This means that there is a steady stream of core elites of the imperial court behind Xuzhou. The elites of the Eastern Expedition brought by the saint to Jiangdu will all appear in Xuzhou and follow the saint.

In our army, masters from all over the country will also come one after another. This is different from here in the East, where we only encounter a master of condensing pills and a master of Chengdan after defeating a county. We all know where the masters of the East are.

As soon as the elixir was condensed, he became an official, and as soon as the elixir was completed, he moved to Guanxi and Dongdu to become a Guanlong native. Isn't the hero Xu Shiren of Lu County the best example? Rebellion is not that simple!"

"It's just as Xianggong Zhang said." Li Shu sighed and realized a little. "So, Xianggong Zhang's plan to slow down the army is to let him attack Xuzhou, and I will take advantage of the situation to run Huaixi?"

"No." Zhang Shizhao shook his head repeatedly. "A good strategy requires considering the target of the strategy in advance... Zhang Sanlang is such a smart person, how can he not expect that Xuzhou is difficult to deal with? He just can't think of it. He tried it but it doesn't work. With his hands spread out, don't you think?

Can he take over and become a leader immediately like he did in Lishan? Even he should know that if he wants to go to Xuzhou, he should first devour the Huaiyou League, then advance into Huainan, hold back Jiangdu in Huainan, attract Jiangdu's attention, and then surround him.

Xuzhou, bring down Sima Erlang."

"Then the matter comes back."

"There is no such thing..." Zhang Shizhao shook his head. "Since Xuzhou is so difficult to defeat, from the overall situation, why must we go head-on with Xuzhou at this time? The collapse of the Wei Dynasty is inevitable, why not wait for two or three years, three or five years?

Years later, Jiangdu collapsed and Xuzhou became an isolated city?"

"You mean, save the Wu brothers first? Block the Han River?" Li Shucheng asked for advice. "Ask him to touch Uncle Cao's bottom line and induce Uncle Cao to take action?"

"How is it possible? Nanyang can't be saved. The most I can do is make a promise to the Wu brothers. They will be brothers when they come and they will attract talents." Zhang Shizhao answered calmly.

"Wu Jingfeng is Bai Sanniang's senior brother... we have a very good relationship." Li Shu shook his head in reply. "Moreover, if this is the case, and Zhang Sanlang can run his business in the East with peace of mind, I will be his meal first."

"If I sincerely give you advice, I would suggest helping you get out of Dengzhou and Qijun, cross the river to the north, and plot the entire territory of the Eastern Qi homeland!" Zhang Shizhao took his time, but finally gave his answer.

"And if Zhang Dalongtou has the responsibility, why not personally lead the elite to march north, and first fight with the weakest of the three key points of the imperial court, that is, the Youzhou cavalry and the Hejian elite?"

Li Shu's heart moved slightly, as if a stopper had been peeled off. He was agitated for a moment and wanted to say something, but he couldn't tell what he wanted to say or what he wanted to think.

"Do you know what's so wonderful about this strategy?" Zhang Shizhao also folded his hands and tilted his head thoughtfully under the lamp, with a smile on his face. "The wonderful thing is that Hebei is indeed the easiest in the long run in the northwest and south directions, but it happens to be difficult.

It is not such a simple direction; the wonderful thing is that even if he succeeds, it will probably take three to five years, enough for you to become a business in the rivers; the wonderful thing is that Zhang Sanlang himself and all the knowledgeable heroes from the Eastern Territory know that North

I'm afraid it's right to advance... because the gang itself has a kind of remnant of the Eastern Qi, and only the re-established Dongqin realm is qualified to show off with Guanlong, which has been strong for hundreds of years, and truly conquer the world.

"

Li Shu suddenly realized that this was the best way to delay the attack and the most majestic conspiracy.

The reason couldn't be simpler. Although the northward march is the so-called correct direction, it also means that once the person who moves north gains a foothold in Hebei, he must give up the sacred land of Jishui and the core control of the eight counties.

Quan, abandoning most of the current base areas.

Because the river divides the world naturally!

It is definitely not impossible for Zhang Xing to be defeated by the heroes of Hebei, the cavalry of Youzhou, and the elites of Hejian. As for Zhang Xing, if he can succeed, it will take years and years, and he has long been a fish on the shore.

It's better to calm down the situation a little bit.

In addition, Li Shu has already figured out where his initial throbbing came from... He has been thinking about how to persuade the big bosses these days. The bosses are against Zhang Xing, and he has already grasped the context, that is

Zhang Xing was too harsh. Although these local leaders were given all the power and position they deserved, they did not allow their families to obtain the wild expansion of their fields and houses, large profits from trade, and full of slaves as they had originally imagined.

The courtyard is full of houses.

Their families could not get loans, were not exempt from punishment, and had to pay taxes. They did not receive the absolute privileges that the Kansai people had before them.

At least not on the surface.

Even the practitioners among their troops were snatched away by Zhang Xing.

However, these dissatisfactions are reflected in Zhang Xing's prestige in the battle with Lishan, in his effective rule over Dongjun and Jiyin, in his aggressive expansion of the Eastern Territory, and in Zhang Xing's outstanding personal charm, personnel methods, and

The relevant force and deterrence were not enough to brew anything violent enough for these people to openly oppose Zhang Sanlang.

But what about this time?

There is no need for a fight, no violence, no risks. As long as Zhang Xing is sent to Hebei, across the river, he will work hard to open up and establish a new foundation in an area with completely different customs, culture, climate, including opponents. Then he can still

Can you be so tough on controlling the rear? Didn’t you also hide from it?

Can you use this to give a little hint to the leaders and big leaders? And then in the above-board decision, let some people prefer to push Zhang Xing to go north based on these selfish thoughts? Besides, going north is right in the first place?

A true wise man, a few words cured Li Dalongtou's mental internal friction.

Although it's temporary.
