Invincible Three Kingdoms System

Chapter 185 Liu Yu's Plan
On the same day, Gongsun Zan sent his men to engage in Le Hedang to seek reinforcements from Liu Yu, the shepherd of Youzhou.

Liu Yu didn't dare to be negligent, and after sending Le Hedang away, he summoned his subordinates to discuss.

Qi Zhou asked, "I don't know what the lord's plan is? Do you want to help Gongsun Zan or Zhao Qian?"

Before Liu Yu could answer, Captain Qi Xianyu Yin said loudly: "Gongsun Zan is cruel and heartless, and he is even more cruel to us and other foreigners. I hope the lord will see clearly."

Xian Yufu also nodded and said, "Gongsun Zan has feuds with all clans, but my lord has friendly relations with all clans. If my lord helps Gongsun Zan in the battle, I'm afraid I will lose the hope of all clans."

Liu Yu nodded, feeling that what they said made sense.

Qi Zhou then asked: "My lord, I heard that a few days ago, General Zhao Qian sent a letter to my lord. I wonder if it is convenient to disclose it to us?"

Liu Yu glanced at Qi Zhou, pondered for a moment, and said with a smile: "Actually, it's nothing. The general ordered me to take Gongsun Zan in the name of the Son of Heaven."

Upon hearing this, Xian Yufu said quickly, "Both sides have come to win over the lord, so the lord has made a choice?"

Liu Yu shook his head and said, "No decision has been made yet."

Qi Zhou and Xian Yufu looked at each other and said, "My lord, this matter must not be waited and watched."

"But why?" Liu Yu asked, "I don't want to help each other, and I really don't want to have a grudge."

Qi Zhou chuckled and said, "When two tigers fight, one must win! But no matter who wins in the end, they will resent the Lord for not helping each other. At that time, the Lord may be the next target."

Liu Yu was startled, thinking about it carefully, Qi Zhou's words did make sense, Xian Yufu also nodded slightly, obviously agreeing with Qi Zhou's words.

"Then according to Qi's intention, who should I help?" Liu Yu asked.

Qi Zhou gave Xianyu Fu a wink, and the latter understood, and said, "The general, in the name of the Son of Heaven, is attacking dissatisfied ministers; and Gongsun Zan has always been at odds with generals, if Gongsun Zan wins this time, he will definitely be even more extravagant, fearing that he will be against him." My lord and the people of all ethnic groups in Youzhou are at a disadvantage, in my opinion, it is better to sneak attack Gongsun Zan and take the opportunity to destroy him!"

"Second it!" Qi Zhou said.

Liu Yu frowned, and after a while, he said, "Alright then, let's help the general and attack Gongsun Zan."

Seeing that Liu Yu had finally made a decision, Xian Yuyin was delighted, and quickly said, "My lord, Gongsun Zan must have been defenseless at this time. How about going to attack Gongsun Zan's camp tonight, and he will be caught off guard!"

Liu Yu had already made a decision, so he stopped hesitating and said, "General Xianyu, you will lead 1 horses as the vanguard, and I will lead the army behind!"

"Order!"

Liu Yu nodded and said, "Let's go away. Tonight, we will make dinner at the third watch and dispatch troops at the fourth watch!"

The crowd dispersed and prepared separately, but one of them, being sneaky, found a horse and galloped away alone, in the direction of Gongsun Zan's camp.

At this time, in Gongsun Zan's camp, Le Hedang was reporting: "General, then Liu Yu neither said to send troops nor said he would not send troops. Let me wait for two days and I will definitely give the general an answer."

Gongsun Zan snorted coldly, and said, "This Liu Yu is obviously trying to delay time, hmph, this general will wait for him for two days, and if there is no reply after two days, this general will kill him first!"

"Report!" A messenger entered the account, "Report to the general, Liu Yu, the state shepherd, is in charge of Gongsun Ji, asking to see him!"

"Did Liu Yu make a decision so quickly?" Gongsun Fan said with a smile.

Gongsun Yue shook his head and said, "Impossible! This Gongsun Ji has the same surname as ours, and has always been treated preferentially by the elder brother. There must be important news to bring, please come in!"

Not long after, Gongsun Ji walked into the tent, without bothering to salute, he hurriedly said: "General, something is wrong, hurry up and get ready!"

Gongsun Zan's expression changed, and he hurriedly asked, "Zigang, what happened? Tell me quickly!"

Gongsun Ji nodded, and told everything about Liu Yu's attack on Gongsun Zan.

Gongsun Zan was startled and furious when he heard this, and couldn't help saying, "If Zigang hadn't told me, my life would have ended!"

Immediately, Gongsun Zan turned from shock to anger, and said bitterly: "I didn't expect Liu Yu to be so vicious, anyway, this general will follow his plan, and tonight is your death day!"

That night, Gongsun Zan ordered people to set up camp, ordered Zou Dan to lead [-] troops to ambush in the east of the camp, ordered Gongsun Yue to lead [-] troops to ambush in the south of the camp, and ordered Gongsun Fan to lead [-] troops to ambush in the west of the camp. Lead [-] troops to ambush in the north of the camp.

Then, Gongsun Zan himself led [-] troops to ambush Liu Yu's army on the way.

After preparations were made, Gongsun Zan's armies were only waiting for Liu Yu's army to come to die, and a big battle was about to break out.

Near the fourth watch, there was a dull thumping sound coming from a distance, which could not even be heard without listening carefully.

Gongsun Zan's eyes lit up. His years of military service had let him know that this was obviously the sound of a horse stamping on the ground after its feet were bound. It seemed that Liu Yu had indeed come to attack him.

Not long after, a team rushed over. Gongsun Zan held back his impulse and did not attack. After a while, a team larger than before arrived.

Gongsun Zan guessed that Liu Yu must be in the rear army, and couldn't help laughing coldly, watching Liu Yu's army enter his encirclement.

The one who rushed ahead was the pioneer Xian Yuyin, who led more than ten thousand troops, and soon approached Gongsun Zan's camp.

Without the slightest doubt, Xian Yuyin gave an order and rushed in first. The soldiers behind him shouted loudly, and then rushed in together!
However, after entering the camp, Xian Yuyin found that it was empty and there was no one there.

Xian Yuyin secretly thought that something was wrong, and quickly shouted loudly: "It's been tricked, get out quickly! Get out quickly!"

However, it was too late. After a few cannon shots, there was a shout like a mountain roar and a tsunami, followed by a rain of arrows.

Xian Yuyin's sergeant was terrified and died under the sharp arrow without even knowing who the enemy was.

Braving the rain of arrows, Xian Yuyin finally rushed out from outside the camp. Before he had gone a few steps, men and horses rushed from all corners of the south, east, north and west.

Xian Yuyin was shocked, and retreated while fighting, and ordered people to rush to the rear army Liu Yu for help.

Liu Yu led the army behind him, and when he heard the loud shouts ahead, he couldn't help but feel happy, and said to his subordinates, "It must be that General Xianyu has entered the camp and is killing the enemy!"

"My lord has a clever plan, then Gongsun Zan will die tonight!" Wei Dun said hastily.

Liu Yu laughed loudly. Suddenly, a fast horse galloped forward. The man on the horse saw Liu Yu's army and shouted: "My lord, something is wrong. Our army is planning!"

After saying this, the man fell headfirst from the horse. Liu Yu looked carefully and found that the man had been shot in the back.

Liu Yu was startled, and only then did he realize that the shouting in front of him was not that Xian Yuyin had killed the enemy, but that he had been ambushed.

"The whole army obeys the order and goes to rescue General Xianyu!" Liu Yu shouted, leading the army and hurried away.
