Three Kingdoms: The ghost plotter taught Liu Bei to seize Jingzhou first

The doubt in Guan Yu's eyes lasted only for a moment, and then disappeared in a flash.

Who is Deng Mu?

That was the number one counselor in ancient and modern times, and he came to the world to seek sage advice.

With his own strategy, he helped his eldest brother Liu Bei to build the foundation he has today.

Since Deng Mu came out of the mountain, he has never suffered a defeat in his life!

Since Deng Mu said today that he could defeat Xiahou Dun's 50,000 troops, he naturally had absolute confidence. What reason did he have to doubt?

"Ashamed, how could I doubt Ziyu..."

After Guan Yu laughed at himself, he happily asked:

"If Xiahou Dun leads his army to cut off our army's retreat, but I wonder if the Prime Minister has a clever plan to defeat it?"

Xu Shu, Guan Ping and others were also full of curiosity and looked at Deng Mu.

"Although Xiahou Dun had 50,000 troops, they were basically all infantry. Cao Cao took all of Wei's cavalry to block the king's main force."

"The lack of cavalry is Xiahou Dun's biggest weakness"

"Before I left Suiyang, I made an agreement with the king to leave our cavalry in Suiyang."

"As soon as Cao Cao's army moved, Zilong led our cavalry to double the distance and detour through Runan to meet you, General Guan."

"General Jie Shiguan 270 can lead the main force to attack Luoyang, and then order Zilong to lead our cavalry to lie in ambush near Xuchang"

"If Xiahou Dun dares to lead his army out of the city, I will use all my ambush troops to destroy him in one fell swoop."

"In this way, not only can Luoyang be conquered, but Xuchang may also be easily captured. Wouldn't it be a double win?"

"In this way, the states and counties south of the Yellow River will be easily accessible!"

Deng Mu told everyone his countermeasures.

Xu Shu's suspicion was gone and he couldn't help but bowed deeply to Deng Mu:

"I really learned a lesson from the Prime Minister’s scheming and scheming today."

"Please pay homage to me!"

Guan Yu was also full of admiration and praised:

"Unexpectedly, Guolian Xiahou Dun had already planned this and deployed a group of cavalry!"

"Okay, okay, the Prime Minister's plan is really a brilliant plan that kills two birds with one stone!"

Guan Yu no longer had any worries.

So he left Liao Hua behind and led 10,000 troops to sit in Luyang. He was responsible for monitoring Xuchang and bringing the grain and grass from Nanyang to the north.

He also sent an order to Zhao Yun, ordering him to lead his cavalry to join them. The former secret Ambush between Xuchang and Luoyang.

Guan Yu then personally led an army of 50,000, changed its route to the northwest, and headed straight for Luoyang.

…

Xuchang.

On the south gate tower.

Xiahou Dun was standing with his sword in hand, looking towards the south of the city.

His eyes were now filled with suspicion and confusion.

Xiahou Dun was very puzzled.

Just two days ago, Guan Yu led 60,000 Yan troops and rushed to the city in a mighty manner, intending to capture Xuchang by force.

But two days later, Guan Yu actually withdrew his troops.

At first, Xiahou Dun suspected that Guan Yu was deceitful, but he did not dare to ignore it, and instead he was very energetic. For three days in a row, Xiahou Dun ordered the city's defenders and soldiers to sleep on the wall, always on guard against Guan

Yu's surprise night attack. But three days passed. However, Guan Yu did not launch a night attack, and not even a single ghost of the Yan army was seen outside the city. This made Xiahou Dun puzzled.

"Zhongde, in your opinion, what trick is Guan Yu playing? Xiahou

Dun turned his suspicious eyes to Cheng Yu beside him.

Before Cheng Yu could speak, deputy general Yang Qiu guessed:

"Former general, could it be that Guan Yu was afraid of the general and feared the strength of Xuchang City, so he retreated to Jingtai?"

The words just fell.

Cheng Yu raised a hint of disdain at the corner of his mouth and coldly snorted:

"General Yang, you underestimate Guan Yu and Liu Bei too much."

"Liu Bei sent his main force to the north. It was obviously a plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain, and wanted to lure the king and the main force of our army out of Xuchang."

"Guan Yu took the opportunity to lead the Yan army from Jingzhou to attack Xuchang."

"Liu Bei had gone through so much trouble, how could Guan Yu not even attack (afaf) Xuchang and just retreat without a fight?"

Cheng Yu dismissed Yang Qiu's guess with a sarcastic tone.

Yang Qiu was speechless, so he coughed a few times, scratched his head and closed his mouth.

"What Zhong De said makes sense"

"Guan Yu is determined to attack Xuchang and will never retreat without a fight. Xiahou

Dun nodded earnestly, but said in confusion:

"Since Guan Yu will not retreat without a fight, where did his 60,000 troops go?"

Cheng Yu's thoughts were racing and he was silent.

After a long time, his eyes suddenly trembled, and he seemed to have guessed something. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"Former general, please send more scouts quickly to conduct reconnaissance in the direction of Yingyin!"

Cheng Yu urgently raised his hand and asked

"Yingyin? Xiahou

Dun didn't know what he meant, so he had to ask again:

"Zhongde, why do you want to send more scouts to reconnoiter in the direction of Yingyin?"

Cheng Yu's face was dark and he said in a deep voice:

"Yu has some guesses in his mind, but he is not sure yet. Please ask the former general to just send more scouts to conduct reconnaissance!"

Xiahou Dun didn't want to ask any more questions, so he had to be suspicious and agreed to Cheng Yu's request.

Dozens of scouts were immediately dispatched to the west in the direction of Yingyin.

Two days later, the scouts returned one after another, leading A piece of information came back that greatly confused Xiahou Dun:

Guan Yu personally commanded an army of 50,000 people and had captured Yingyin City.

Now Guan Yu is leading the victorious army and continues to look north from Yingyin

"Strange!"

"Guan Yu did not attack Xuchang, why did he attack Yingyin instead?"[]

"That city is neither an important place nor a place for our army to store grain. What is Guan Yu doing there by attacking it? Xiahou

Dun was puzzled and could only look at Cheng Yu again.

Cheng Yu had a layer of cold sweat on his forehead and hurriedly ordered to bring the map.

After a while, the map was spread out on the tower.

"Former general, the situation is not good!"

"According to Guan Yu's marching route, he wanted to defeat Yingyin first, then take Yangren City, and finally enter Yin, Henan, and attack our Luoyang City in one fell swoop!"

Cheng Yu nodded at the map and said with a little excitement.

"Luoyang City?"

Xiahou Dun was shaken, and his eyes rushed towards the map:

"Luoyang was just the old capital, and the emperor was not there, so why did he attack Luoyang? Cheng

Yu looked solemn, pointed at the map and said:

"Although Luoyang did not have an emperor, its strategic location was extremely important, far better than that of Xuchang"

"He saw that Xuchang was heavily garrisoned and could not attack by force, so he turned to attack Luoyang, which was weakly defended."

"Once Luoyang is captured, the road between Guanzhong and Guandong can be cut off to the west, and along the Yellow River to the east, you can cooperate with Liu Bei's main force to attack the king from east to west and block the Yellow River!"

"Guan Yu is attacking from the east to the west. He wants to cut off all the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses of the Wei Dynasty south of the Yellow River, and give us a trap to catch turtles in a jar!"

Cheng Yu took a picture of the map and finally figured out the truth with a trembling tone.

Xiahou Dun's face changed with shock.
