Old Mister Tian Feng probably likes me and wants me to go to the frontlines to persuade him!
Bai Xiaowen understood Tian Feng's intention and hurriedly added, "I do not cherish my life. If I can convince father, I will go to the front line of Guandu and risk being punished by father. If I can ensure victory, I will not hesitate. However, father does not like me, and even if I go, I will not be of much use. "
Tian Feng said, "Even so, you should do your part as a minister. Moreover, as a son, you should not avoid misfortune and try to persuade him with your life. "
If it was someone else who said this, it would definitely make people feel uncomfortable. However, Tian Feng was different. He was a role model who risked his life to persuade others.
Bai Xiaowen was prepared and said, "Tian Gong is right. I will go to the frontlines to persuade father. However, in this war, I feel that there are other things I can do. "
"Young master seems to have a plan." Tian Feng stared at Bai Xiaowen.
"That's right. My plan is to fight head to head!" Bai Xiaowen took in a deep breath and said, "The main force of the Cao army is gathered in Guandu, and their rear defenses are empty. If we can choose elite troops and light cavalry to attack Xudu while the two armies are fighting intensely, the matter will be settled. "
Light cavalry, light armored cavalry. Double the distance, a journey that took two days, it was like a rapid march.
Xudu was the capital of Cao Cao's power. Emperor Xian of Han Liu Xie was held hostage here, and it could be said to be Cao Cao's most important place.
What needed to be mentioned was that attacking Xudu with light cavalry was a plan that Xu You gave to Yuan Shao in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. However, Yuan Shao did not use it and instead scolded Xu You because of his nephew's actions in Ye City, which led to Xu You joining Cao Cao.
Yuan Shao's lack of talent was evident.
Bai Xiaowen looked at the map in Yuan Shao's reading room. He had even planned out a possible route to go around Guandu and head straight for Qiao Prefecture and Xudu. Facing a great talent like Tian Feng, it was necessary to make preparations in advance. If Tian Feng asked for the details, Bai Xiaowen would definitely not be able to convince the other party with vague words.
Tian Feng frowned and thought about it.
He felt that Bai Xiaowen's suggestion was bold, but he instinctively resisted it.
Like Xun Yu, Tian Feng was a strategist who was good at seeing the big picture and facing strategies, unlike Xu You and Guo Jia who were good at using strange tactics.
"If we fail, our army will be shaken," Tian Feng said slowly. "Moreover, with Milord's personality, I'm afraid it will be difficult for her to decisively accept Gongzi's suggestion and send troops to attack Xu Du."
"Tian Gong, don't worry. This march must be extremely secretive. I don't plan to let my father know about it. I don't even want to use his soldiers, "Bai Xiaowen said.
"It does make sense to act in secret. Once such a scheme is exposed, we will lose half the battle before it even starts."
Tian Feng pondered and said, "But I don't know how Lord will cooperate with you in Guandu?"
Logically speaking, such a sneak attack on the enemy's rear had to be made known to the commander. In an ideal situation, when Xu Du was attacked, Cao Cao would definitely withdraw his troops. Yuan Shao could make arrangements in advance. Whether it was intercepting or chasing, they could achieve good results.
Bai Xiaowen smiled bitterly and said, "I'm worried that if I report to Father, not only will it not succeed, but we will also lose the opportunity to march."
Tian Feng was silent. After being imprisoned, he had seen through Yuan Shao's indecisive personality. He did not deny Bai Xiaowen's words.
"So, my idea is to understand the situation at Guandu through other channels. I will cooperate with Father!" Bai Xiaowen said slowly. "Once the two armies enter a large-scale battle, my cavalry will immediately attack Xu Du. At that time, I will send someone to inform Father. When the ship is built, he will definitely make a decision. "
Tian Feng sighed and said, "Using troops should complement each other. If Gongzi's scheme can be combined with Milord's brilliant battle formation, we will definitely be able to defeat Cao Cao. Then, Gongzi, how can I help? "
Bai Xiaowen thought to himself, Tian Feng is really smart. It is so comfortable to talk to smart people.
"I have two problems," Bai Xiaowen said slowly. "First, if I don't use Father's troops, I will need to spend my own money and food. If I don't have money, if I use the Youzhou treasury's money and food, I will alert the officials sent by Father and cause the matter to be leaked. Second, I don't have any generals in the army that I am familiar with, so I don't know anything about the situation at Guandu. "
For a talent like Tian Feng, once he was convinced, he would do his best to help and would not hesitate.
Tian Feng stroked his beard and said, "The first thing is not difficult. I will write a letter for Gongzi to send to the Julu Tian family. Although the Tian family is not a rich family, we have some wealth. If Gongzi needs it, you can take it all. "
Bai Xiaowen said anxiously, "I don't dare. I will go to the Zhen family to meet Father-in-law and gather some money and food. How can I let Gongzi Tian destroy your family?"
Tian Feng waved his hand and said, "If the skin does not exist, where will the hair go? If the Lord loses, Cao Cao will invade north and the people of Jizhou will face a calamity. How can the Tian family be spared? "
In truth, Tian Feng's words were too much. Cao Cao's troops were everywhere. Maybe the people of Jizhou would not be able to escape, but as long as Tian Feng submitted to Cao Cao, the Tian family would be safe. However, the loyal Tian Feng would not consider the possibility of surrendering to Cao Cao.
Tian Feng said, "As for the second thing, it is even easier. I have a nephew called Tian Yu. He knows the art of war and is skilled in archery and horses. He is the Lord's deputy general. Take my letter and head to Guandu to meet him. Ask him to send people to report the news. Gongzi can have the frontline report at any time. "
Bai Xiaowen was' delighted 'and said, "When I succeed, I will not forget Gongzi Tian's help!"
Tian Feng shook his head and said, "If you succeed, please do not mention me in front of the Lord."
Bai Xiaowen's eyes squinted. He did not ask why and sighed. He lowered his head and said, "My Yuan family has let Gongzi Tian down. I am ashamed. Gongzi Tian, please accept my bow! "
Tian Feng accepted the bow.
In this cell, there were candles, books, and scrolls. Tian Feng picked up his brush and wrote two letters. One was for the Julu Tian family and the other was for Tian Yu, who was in Yuan Shao's army.
"Gongzi Tian, I do not have the right to release you. When the army wins, I will persuade my father to release Gongzi Tian and treat you well. "
Tian Feng hummed in agreement, "If I win, my power will increase. When the time comes, my lord will definitely pardon me. Gongzi, thank you for your good intentions. "
A notification from the spiritual world laws appeared.
"Hero side quest: Surprise Attack Xudu activated."
"Quest objective: Occupy 50% or more of Xudu (including the prime minister's residence and the palace) for 12 hours."
"Quest difficulty: Unable to be evaluated."
"Quest duration: None (equal to the remaining time you spend in the Three Kingdoms world)."
"Quest reward: Unknown."
Bai Xiaowen kept the two letters as if he had found a treasure. He bade farewell to Tian Feng.
When he left, he met the two wardens in charge of the prison. Bai Xiaowen scolded, "Although Gongzi Tian is imprisoned, my father still thinks highly of him. When Gongzi Tian is in prison, he cannot be lacking in his needs. When I come back, if Gongzi Tian loses a single strand of hair, I will hold the two of you responsible! "
The two wardens nodded their heads. Bai Xiaowen took out two silver ingots and comforted them. He then brought Li Shuyi and Cecilia and left.
