"Sneak Lu Kang out to fight?"
"Lu River in a single battle?"
Hearing Baili Ming's conclusion, the eyes of the generals lit up.
Ever since the incident with Dong, it had been a long time since the military counselor had made such a judgment!
It seemed that this time, they would be able to see the military counselor's showy operation again!
In fact, in their opinion, although Baili Ming was a military strategist and had covered all aspects, what they liked the most was fighting!
He always won by surprise and never dragged things out!
Moreover, the war was related to their interests!
Having a military advisor as the mastermind meant a huge victory!
They had no choice but to like it!
Qiao Rui and Sun Ce, who had just joined, were shocked when they heard this.
The military counselor's words were shocking!
He had just said that Lu Kang was good at defense, but now he was saying that he wanted to lure him out and annihilate him.
Sun Ce thought for a while and hurriedly asked,"
"Didn't you say that Lu Kang would definitely hold on?”
"If our army has surrounded Lu Kang, how can we lure him out?”
When Baili Ming heard this, he shook his head and smiled."
"If Lu Kang is already surrounded, then we can't lure him out no matter what!”
"There's no need to talk about encirclement!"
"Therefore, our army cannot send troops at will in this battle and alert the enemy.”
"At the very least, we can't let Lu Kang know that we've sent troops before we're ready to destroy him in one battle!”
"This…"
When Sun Ce heard this, he was instantly speechless.
No wonder Sir only praised him just now and did not express his approval. It turned out that there was a problem with his strategy from the beginning!
However, his thoughts were his. To the generals, they were already confused when they heard this.
Sun Jian frowned and said,
"You have to send troops in secret and lure Lu Kang out. I'm afraid it won't be easy to achieve your goal, Military Advisor!”
When the generals heard this, they nodded their heads.
This matter was a little contradictory to them!
Usually, to lure the enemy out of the city, they would use decoys.
But if they couldn't send troops, they couldn't use decoy troops. How could this work?
As they thought about it, they couldn't help but cast their gazes over.
Baili Ming saw everyone's expressions and knew what they were thinking. He couldn't help but smile and say,"
"Our army doesn't need to lure Lu Kang out by ourselves!”
"We can use a strategy of driving the tiger to swallow the wolf!”
"Drive the tiger to swallow the wolf?"
Hearing this, the generals were puzzled.
Even Sun Jian and Sun Ce frowned.
"Advisor, what do you mean by driving the tiger to swallow the wolf?”
This strategy of driving the tiger to swallow the wolf was created by Xun Yu and was not circulated at this time. Therefore, everyone was puzzled. Baili Ming did not mind and just smiled.
"The so-called driving the tiger to swallow the wolf is to use this to attack the other party and let us sit back and reap the benefits!”
He pointed at Lu River on the map and said,"
"Everyone, do you know that there is a big thief in Chaohu called Zheng Bao?”
"I know!"
Qiao Rui listened and said,"
"This person is a big thief in Lujiang. He has more than 10,000 troops and Lu Kang is very afraid of him!”
Hearing this, Sun Ce hurriedly said,"
"Advisor Jun wants to use Zheng Bao to lure Lu Kang out?”
"That's right!"
Baili Ming looked at Sun Ce with admiration and said,"
"In my opinion, to lure Lu Kang out, we need to use Zheng Bao as bait!”
"Lu Kang is strong and Zheng Bao is weak. The two of them are like fire and water. Our army only needs to light a fire between the two of them and Lu Kang won't have to worry about not leaving the city!”
When Sun Jian heard this, he smiled and said,"
"It seems that the military counselor has a good plan in mind. Why don't you tell me everything?”
"Of course!"
Baili Ming smiled at Sun Jian and said,"
"Although Bo Fu's strategy was good, he was wrong about one thing. In fact, our goal in this battle is not to attack the city, but Lu Kang alone!”
"No matter how much land we take, it is useless to our army.”
"Therefore, our strategy for this battle can be divided into three steps!”
"First, our army should be lightly equipped for this battle. We should be able to travel by night and by day. We can go along the line of Quyang and Hefei under our control, pass through Chaohu Lake, and head south to Lujiang!”
"After our army reaches Lujiang, we will ambush by Chaohu Lake and incite conflict between Lu Kang and Zheng Bao.”
"Finally, when Lu Kang and Zheng Bao are both injured, our army can take advantage of the situation to attack and annihilate Lu Kang first, then Zheng Bao!”
At this point, he drew a circle on the Lu River and said,
"This way, after our army defeats Lu Kang's main force, we can occupy the entire Lujiang Prefecture!”
"Moreover, because Zheng Bao was the only one left, it will be easy for our army to deal with the bandits after this battle!”
"Alright!"
As soon as Baili Ming finished speaking, Sun Jian had already punched his left palm. He said happily,
"This is a good plan!"
"With this plan, not only can our army get rid of Lu Kang, but we can also save a lot of effort in governing Lujiang!”
"If you say that the most amazing person who uses troops in this world is the military counselor!”
"In that case, Lu Kang can defeat them in one battle!”
As he spoke, he was in a good mood, no longer as depressed as before when he was demoted.
Lu River was not just a county. It was also part of Baili Ming's previous strategy.
After occupying Lujiang, Huainan was already in his hands. The next step would be Jiangdong!
This also meant that everything that Baili Ming had said was about to come true.
With the six counties of Yangzhou, whether it was Jing Zhou in the west or Yu Zhou in the north, Sun Jian would have a place in the world!
When Sun Jian said this, the generals were naturally overjoyed.
This plan was much simpler than Sun Ce's earlier plan, and it was more effective!
The greater the effect, the greater the battle merits!
At this moment, all the generals stood up and said,
"My lord, with the military counselor's suggestion, our army can move!”
Looking at everything before them, Sun Ce and Qiao Rui couldn't help but feel a little dizzy. They looked at Baili Ming like he was a monster.
No wonder Sun Jian thought so highly of Baili Ming.
With such a strategy, where could he not go in the world?
Even if Lu Zhu Hou had a talent like the military counselor, wouldn't he treat him like a treasure?
However, just as everyone was rejoicing, Baili Ming opened his mouth again and said with a smile,
"My lord, you can't be happy too early. Before our army sends out troops, I still have to trouble my lord with one matter!”
Everyone was startled when they heard these words. Sun Jian was also stunned as he said,
"What else do you want to feel wronged for?"
"Military Advisor, feel free to speak!"
"This grievance isn't big, but it's a little embarrassing!”
Baili Ming smiled and pointed at the silk book on the table."
"Before we send out our troops, my lord has to reply to Lu Jining with a letter!”
"Not only do we have to say that he's right, but we also have to tell him that since he's unwilling to come, our army won't force him!”
"The better this book is written, the more effective our army will be in this battle!”
"This matter is easy!"
When Sun Jian heard Baili Ming's words, he initially thought that it was something else, but when he heard it, he laughed out loud and said,"
"I know that this must be the strategy of the military counselor to underestimate the enemy. It is the same as the letter from Huaxiong at Lishui Pass that day!”
"Don't worry, as long as we can win, a little face is nothing!”
"That's right!"
Seeing that Sun Jian was able to see through him so easily, Baili Ming nodded and did not say anything else.
As for the others, veteran generals like Zu Mao and Dian Wei naturally knew about them, but the newcomers like Zhao Yun, Qiao Rui, and Sun Ce were stunned.
After asking the old general, he found out the reason and couldn't help but praise this plan.
On the one hand, he secretly marched the army, and on the other hand, he used letters to make Lu Kang careless.
Even if Lu Kang was more alert, he wouldn't be able to notice them!
Just like the military counselor's previous considerations, it was like a big net, airtight!
......
Just like that, after discussing the general strategy, Sun Jian ordered Wang Can to write the silk book.
Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Zhu Zhi, and Zhao Cen were in charge of staying in Jiujiang. The newly joined Lu Dai, Lu Fan, and Yan He helped with the administrative matters.
As for himself, he had Zu Mao, Han Dang, Zhao Yun, Dian Wei, and Jiang Qin, Zhou Tai, Deng Dang, and Song Qian, who had already joined the army, as generals. With Baili Ming as the military advisor and Wang Can as the military advisor, he led a total of 30,000 cavalry and infantry troops straight to Lujiang.
Of course, as Baili Ming's personal guard, Sun Ce naturally followed the army.
The 30,000 strong army left Jiujiang County and silently approached the Lujiang River.
At the same time, Sun Jian's letter of apology, written by Wang Can, was also placed on Lu Kang's table.
