Chapter 616 (2/2)
”One is to set up checkpoints at the main roads to stop the flow of the people. When they saw the people who had gone to gongsunxu, they were forced to suppress them and bring them back to their original places. However, at present, there is a lack of military resources, and some of the people are afraid to evaporate.”
Yuan Xi nodded: ”well, this is a way.”
”General Gao.”
”At the end of the day, please give orders.” Gao Lan stood up. Although he was defeated, he was still the top general Yuan Xi relied on most.
”General Gao.” ”Please lead two thousand troops and horses and set up checkpoints in every important road to prevent people from flowing to gongsunxu,” Yuan Xi said
Gao Lan ”pa” a hug, Lang said: ”please rest assured, the end will certainly live up to the trust.”
Yuan Xi ”um” a, and look to Tian Feng: ”Mr. Yuan Hao, what else?”
”Second.” Tian Feng continued: ”the Wuhuan people plunder villages with weak defense, but seldom attack the local strong cities. In the name of guarding against Wuhuan people, the second young master ordered the local people to strengthen their walls and clear the country, so that they could take in the people.”
”Strong walls and clear fields?” Yuan Xi frowned and said, ”in this way, the loss of Youzhou will be great.”
”Expedient measures must be taken as a last resort.” Tian Feng is also frowning. Even if he is a famous scholar in Hebei Province, he can't always have countermeasures. In particular, the Wuhuan people were invited by Yuan Shao himself. He can't expel Wuhuan people and openly contradict Yuan Shao, right?
Tian Feng said in a deep voice, ”what I'm worried about right now is that Gongsun continues to gather his troops to attack the hinterland of Youzhou, and then what
”This...” Yuan Xi hears the speech, also is the complexion big change, cloudy and sunny is uncertain.Yeah! In case of gathering troops to attack the south, how can we organize the army for the people?
Shanggu and Yuyang counties are in the north of Youzhou, and the southern Zhuozhou county and youbeiping county are under Yuan Xi's control. If gongsunxu mobilizes a large army to go south, it will be difficult to do so. You should know that Gao Lan has just led Youzhou's elite soldiers to defeat, with more than half of the casualties. This is the time of low morale.
What's more, Youzhou is the old place of Gongsun army. Yuan Shaoping settled Youzhou only a few months ago. Many local people still support Gongsun's family. If Gongsun continues to lead the army to attack, they dare not say that it is the responders, but some people will speculate on it...
”send me the order.” Yuan Xi said in a deep voice: ”order the Rangers in all counties to explore the enemy's situation at all times, and report to Beiping immediately if there is any interception.”
At the moment, Yuan Xi was unable to send troops to pacify Gongsun Xu, but only a lot of sentries were sent to prevent the trouble.
”Second childe, I have a plan here.” Han Heng suddenly said.
”Oh? If you have any ideas, let's hear them. ” Yuan Xi asked.
Han Heng bowed his hand and said coldly, ”Gongsun Zan conquered Wuhuan people in those years, and there was a deep hatred between them. If the Wuhuan people knew that Gongsun was the son of Gongsun Zan, he would not let them go.”
”Now the Wuhuan people are allies of our army. Our army can send people to invite the Wuhuan people to kill gongsunxu. This is a way to kill people by sword.”
”Oh?” Yuan Xi was overjoyed: ”this is a good strategy. General Gao Lan, you will arrange the staff. Later, you will write a letter in calligraphy and send it to the Department of Mudun Shan.”
Tian Feng smelled the speech and sighed in secret. In fact, he had thought of this plan for a long time, but... Alas!
