Chapter 860 Yuan Shu's Plan(1/2)
Yuan Shu couldn't help laughing after hearing Xi Zhicai's words:
"The Han army is indeed interesting. Isn't this Zhao Kuo's plan to do it in Lian Po?"
Xi Zhicai sat on the lounge chair next to Yuan Shu very ripe, grabbed the fruit next to him and ate it.
"No, it is natural to see through the Han army's strategy with the wisdom of the king."
Yuan Shu shook his head gently and said:
"I'll have to fall into the trap this time."
Xi Zhicai instantly understood what Yuan Shu meant and asked him:
"Did the king want to use the trick?"
"Those who know me are the will of aspirations!"
Yuan Shu said to Xi Zhicai:
"Zhicai thinks how is Lu Xun's child like?"
Xi Zhicai thought for a moment and answered truthfully to Yuan Shu:
"Lu Boyan is both wise and brave, and has a strong talent, and is actually a talent of a general."
Yuan Shu continued to ask:
"What if he was let to be the commander of Hanzhong?"
"Although Lu Xun is young, his ability to command troops is definitely not inferior to Huang Hansheng."
Xi Zhicai paused and continued:
"But his prestige is far less than that of General Huang.
The change of generals at the last battle will also cause our army's morale to be damaged.
However, this can also be an opportunity for us to defeat the Han army. I think this plan is feasible."
Yuan Shu nodded and said to Xi Zhicai:
"Okay, that boy will let Lu Xun be the commander.
Let’s see if this little guy can help me take Hanzhong off.”
...
Hanzhong, Chu army camp.
Commander Huang Zhong sat in the upper head, with four followers and the generals of the Chu army on both sides.
The plan to rule the law was looking around everyone and spoke slowly:
"Recently, rumors have spread in the camp, and the fingers are pointed at General Han Sheng.
Rumorstors said that General Han Sheng was old and ineffective.
The reason why our army was unable to conquer Hanzhong was because General Han Sheng was improperly commanded.
The one who truly has the ability to lead the army among the Han army was Lu Xun, the disciple of the king.
If Lu Xun had become the head commander, our army would have taken Hanzhong long ago."
As soon as these words were spoken, the generals in the camp were immediately filled with righteous indignation.
The young Lu Xun's face turned slightly red, as if he had thought of something, and sighed secretly.
The senior brother Zhou Yu, who was sitting next to him, patted Lu Xun on the shoulder gently and expressed comfort to him.
General Liu Zan stood up and said loudly:
"This must be a rumor made by the thieves of the Han army!
These despicable villains can't beat us, so they use rumors to disrupt our morale.
I don’t suffer this cowardly if I keep it!”
Liu Zan said to Huang Zhong:
"General, order the siege!
Liu Zan is willing to be the vanguard and will not keep the pieces of armor killed by the Han army!"
Huang Zhong looked at Liu Zan and said:
"General Liuzan knew it, he knew it.
But now is not a good opportunity to attack the city.
When fighting with good generals like Guan Yu, we need to focus on stability.”
Huang Zhong was maliciously slandered by the Han army, but he did not show any anger.
He didn't even show any dissatisfaction with Lu Xun.
Military advisor Ma Liang spoke loudly:
"This is the plan of Zhao Kuo of the Han army in Dai Lianpo.
Wei Yu is a cunning person, so it is normal for him to come up with such a treacherous plan.
But he underestimated the king's wise and magical martial arts.
The king is the wise ruler of the world. How could he not see Wei Yu’s plan?
His plan will not play any role except disrupting our morale.
As long as the king does not replace the head coach, Wei Yu's plan will be defeated without attacking."
The generals nodded at the same time, thinking that what Ma Liang said made sense.
Everyone's excitement gradually subsided.
At this moment, Huang Zhong's personal guard outside the tent reported:
"Report to the general!
The two generals, Ma Zhong and Cao Xing, came to the camp with the king's letters."
Huang Zhong said quickly:
"Please come in!"
If it is an ordinary command, Yuan Shu only needs to send a team of secret troops to deliver the letter.
If Ma Zhong and Cao Xing come in person, their own king must have an important order.
Huang Xu smiled and said to Huang Zhong:
"It must be that the king had seen through Wei Yu's Zhao Kuo's plan of Lianpo, and sent two generals to appease his father to stabilize the morale of the army."
The generals thought Huang Xu's words were reasonable, and secretly praised the king as the king, and immediately thought of a way to counter the Han army.
As long as the king personally ordered the appeasement and reward General Huang Zhong, with the loyalty of the soldiers of the Great Chu to the King of Chu, how could he trust the rumors in the camp?
A moment later, Ma Zhong and Cao Xinger walked into the tent under the guidance of Huang Zhong’s personal guard.
The two of them worshiped Huang Zhong at the same time:
"The last general Ma Zhong and Cao Xing, pay homage to General Han Sheng!"
When Huang Zhong saw the two of them being energetic, he said with great energy:
"The two generals don't have to be too polite!
I wonder what military orders the king has to let Huang complete?”
Although Huang Zhong was calm, he would not be easily disturbed by the rumors of the Han army.
However, as long as it is a human being, he does not like to be maliciously slandered by others. He was called an incompetent general by the Han army. Huang Zhong felt a little uncomfortable.
Now, my king personally sent someone to correct his name.
I, Huang Hansheng, took this opportunity to inspire the morale of the three armies and fight another big battle with the Han army so that they can also let them understand my power!
Thinking of this, Huang Zhong's eyes flashed with brilliance and was full of fighting spirit.
Ma Zhong took a few steps forward, put Yuan Shu's letters on the table in front of Huang Zhong, and said respectfully:
"The king's order is here, so I'll ask General Huang to take a look."
Huang Zhong quickly opened the letter and studied it carefully. The generals in the camp also stared at Huang Zhong, wanting to know what his king had to give.
After a cup of tea, Huang Zhong's expression subsided, and he said to the generals:
"The king appointed military advisor Lu Xun as the governor of Hanzhong and the governor of Hanzhong military.
Huang Zhong and Zhou Yu were appointed as deputy governor and assisted Lu Xun.
All the wars in Hanzhong were commanded by the Grand Governor Lu Xun."
Speaking of this, Huang Zhong stood up and said to Lu Xun beside him:
"Boyan, now you are the commander of the three armies, please give me a seat."
