Chapter 664 The third method, intercept Wang Ben!

After hearing this second plan, Ying Bu understood. It turned out that what Zhang Liang said was so closely related to him. The reason was that the speed of marching and fighting actually depended on Ying Bu's on-the-spot command ability and the help provided by various plans prepared in advance.

However, despite this, Ying Bu was still full of curiosity about the last method, and could even be said to be persistent. After all, the first two methods failed to fully satisfy his inner expectations. For Ying Bu, what he really wanted was how to gain more military merits and achieve more brilliant results.

He had waited for a long time in front of Wuding Pass. If he could only get such a trivial result in the end, Ying Bu would naturally be unwilling to accept it.

Zhang Liang smiled slightly and said slowly: "The last solution is to take action. Look for opportunities during the movement and capture Wang Ben in one fell swoop. In other words, no matter where Wang Ben is, we must follow him like a shadow, set up an ambush in advance, and catch him off guard!"

"The military advisor means that we should chase Wang Ben and fight him!" When Ying Bu said this, his eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had discovered a new world. He obviously did not expect Zhang Liang to come up with such a strategy, and he could not help but admire the military advisor's wisdom even more.

"That's right," Zhang Liang nodded and continued to explain, "If you want to gain enough benefits, you must take certain risks. If we fail, we will definitely be blamed by the Prime Minister, but if we succeed, it will definitely be a great achievement. However, the risks involved are not small, and Wang Ben is not an easy general to deal with."

After hearing this, Ying Bu said without hesitation: "Military Advisor, you have really given me a difficult problem! Since there is such a solution, you still tell me, isn't this making me jealous? Don't keep me in suspense, just tell me what I should do. Even if it means taking certain risks, Ying Bu is willing to take them all!"

Ying Bu's words did not meet Zhang Liang's approval. He just rolled his eyes, seeming helpless about Ying Bu's words.

"You, you, am I the kind of person who worries about taking responsibility? What I am worried about is that this move is too risky! Now our army is like a big pie, which looks huge, but actually has many weak points. And that Wang Ben is like a ferocious and strong mouse. If we let him get into the range of our army's strength, the consequences will be disastrous. Do you know Wang Ben's marching method and goal after entering Nanjun?" Zhang Liang frowned slightly and asked in a serious tone.

Ying Bu fell silent upon hearing this. He knew very well that what Zhang Liang said was true. It would be no easy task to take down Wang Ben. It was like trying to catch a mouse on a pancake. How easy is that? Not only that, compared with taking down Hanzhong, this time it was several times more difficult. After all, the goals of both sides were completely different. One was to defend Nanjun, and the other was to break through the defense line. The difficulty was imaginable.

"Since you have decided to go all out and take the last chance, then I naturally have no reason to object. However, we must think carefully and make a careful decision about the location of Wang Ben's attack. You know, during the war between the six countries, Wang Ben was a master at fighting to support the war. This tactical skill was used to perfection by many veteran generals of Qin."

"If we can't hold on to Wang Ben's attack, the subsequent situation will probably become increasingly difficult, and may even become worse and worse. After all, by then we will be in a passive position, led by the enemy, and completely lose the initiative.

Moreover, if we blindly follow Wang Ben's buttocks, this battle will not only make us lose face, but I am afraid that before the prime minister takes action, you and I will have to take the initiative to ask for forgiveness. Therefore, if we want to adopt this strategy, we must predict the place where Wang Ben may attack in advance, so as to ensure the greatest safety and prevent being led by Wang Ben by the nose. "

"Of course, if we can successfully defeat Wang Ben, then Hanzhong will definitely fall into our hands. In this way, we will have no worries when attacking Nanjun!"

At this time, Zhang Liang elaborated on the pros and cons of this last method in great detail. The core target of this method is actually Wang Ben, because Gao Yao once led Zhang Liang, Xiao He and others to discuss the issue of the old Qin people in depth. They found that Wang Ben was too important in it. This will not only make Gao Yao bear accusations and criticisms from all sides, but will also have a far-reaching impact on the entire situation.

As for Jiang Lu, he is relatively unimportant. The reason is simple. Jiang Lu is similar to Gongzi Gao in some ways, and is more of a symbolic role. Although Jiang Lu has a certain reputation, most of the people who will follow him are actually coming for Wang Ben. After all, although Jiang Lu has a reputation, almost no one believes that he has the ability to revive the Qin Dynasty.

However, Wang Ben is completely different. Whether it is his fame or his brilliant past achievements, he is fully qualified and qualified to become the target of others' expectations. Although Wang Ben is old, his influence cannot be underestimated and he can still have a huge appeal to many people.

However, if Wang Ben unfortunately passed away, the consequences would be disastrous. Not only that, even if Lu succeeded in occupying Xianyang, or even the entire area outside the pass, the morale of the army would collapse instantly, and they would be powerless to fight back. What's worse, it wouldn't be long before Gao Yao's own internal divisions would fall apart because of this change.

This was undoubtedly a crucial point for Gao Yao. Before this, Gao Yao did not choose to take the initiative to attack for two main reasons: first, it took time to digest the territory he had just annexed; second, nominally speaking, if Gao Yao attacked Wang Ben too aggressively, his hard-earned reputation would be ruined. For this reason, Gao Yao came up with the idea of ​​using the other party as a focus of his own defense.

However, times have changed, and the situation is now very different. The external unfavorable factors have been greatly reduced, and this time, Wang Ben actually took the initiative to join the alliance of princes. In other words, the current situation has become: I had no intention of attacking you, but you took the initiative to come to me to provoke me. In this way, it is logical and reasonable for Gao Yao to take action to destroy Wang Ben.

Once Wang Ben died, the last glimmer of hope for the Qin Dynasty would be completely shattered, and there would be no chance of recovery. Naturally, there would be no more words that could question the legitimacy of Gongzi Gao.

This also provided a very necessary condition for the legitimacy of Prince Gao's abdication to Gao Yao. This is the most important thing. Don't underestimate such a name. In fact, this point is very important.
