Zhao Yun was a little surprised and said: "If Cao Cao implements it according to Mr. Wenhe's analysis, our army will encounter a water attack. ”

"What General Zilong said is very true." Jia Xu smiled with relief, Zhao Yun's brain is fast enough.

Ma Chao said puzzledly: "Mr. Wenhe is a bit alarmist. Everyone knows how difficult it is to carry out the strategy of water attack. More than 100,000 soldiers and horses of our army are rushing forward, how long can Ruyin City resist our army? ”

Jia Xu really wants to give Ma Chao a slap, is there a person like you, every time he says something contrary to his own devouring.

Huang Zhong thought of it a little, and then his face was very gloomy.

Zhao Yun also thought of it, and said in a deep voice: "If Cao Cao is in charge in person, even if our army is all pressed, it will be difficult to take Ruyin City within half a month!" If Cao Cao is as Mr. Wen He said, I am afraid that our army will be very dangerous. ”

Ma Chao was stunned, why didn't he think of it just now, this is a shame.

"General Zilong is really the wise general in our army!" Jia Xu once again expressed his appreciation for Zhao Yun's intelligence.

Ma Chao heard that Jia Xu was scolding him around the bush, but he was embarrassed just now, so he didn't dare to talk nonsense.

Huang Zhong's mind changed sharply, if the back road was cut off, he encountered a water attack, and the front could not be attacked for a long time, and it was easy to breed plague after the flood, and after a long time, he would inevitably be defeated.

"This plan is vicious, Cao Cao is absolutely likely to act like this, and our army has to guard against it. Mr. Wenhe, how do you think our military should respond to this threat? Huang Zhong knew that Jia Xu could see it, so he definitely had a way to deal with it.

"Hehe, Cao Cao has reached the point where he is now, and any strategy will be implemented. His abacus is very good, but it has long been seen by the old decay. Jia Xu touched his beard and said with a smile: "The focus of Cao Cao's plan is Taihe City and Cihe. Our army only needs to make arrangements in these two places. ”

Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, and Ma Chao didn't interject and continued to let Jia Xu speak.

Jia Xu's vanity was satisfied, and he continued: "The key is in the Ci River. The general can now send an elite army to ambush the upper reaches of the Ci River and wait for the arrival of Cao's army. Once Cao's army arrived, he immediately launched a fierce attack on it and broke it. As for Taihe City, hehe, set up more ambushes in the city to lure Cao Jun into the city and catch turtles in an urn! ”

The strategy is so simple, it didn't cost too many troops, Huang Zhong was satisfied when he heard it, and said: "Since this is the case, act according to what Mr. Wenhe said." Who can go to the Iti River? ”

Ma Chao thought of coming out to do something, but Jia Xu came out and said: "This strategy can't be discovered by Cao Cao, so the general of our army must not go to Cihe, lest Cao Cao find out." The old man has a candidate, who once raided Shouchun and implemented a water attack strategy, and now he is the best candidate. ”

"And such a warrior? Why didn't Mr. Wenhe say it earlier? "For talents, Huang Zhong is the more the merrier.

Jia Xu smiled slightly, and immediately ordered someone to call Zhou Cang in.

Zhou Cang's last heroic performance was deeply remembered by Jia Xu, so he took it with him and cultivated it to become Jia Xu's own person. was originally supposed to be the person who helped carry the knife by Guan Yu's side, but he became a talent with great potential around Jia Xu.

"The last general, Zhou Cang, Zhou Yuanzu, see the general, General Ma, General Zhao, and Lord Jia." As soon as Zhou Cang came in, he saluted the people present.

Huang Zhong glanced at Zhou Cang up and down, and found that this person was very majestic, and it seemed that he was a person with good martial arts.

"Zhou Cang, a few of us are here to discuss the military aircraft, and Mr. Wen recommends you, and now I will give you a task, I don't know if you have the courage to take it?" Huang Zhong said lightly.

As soon as he heard that there was a task, Zhou Cang's whole person was excited, and said: "The last general will complete any task desperately!" ”

In the Shenwu Imperial Court, for those who are in the military, military merit is everything. A small soldier can accumulate military merit by slowly slashing the enemy's head. But if you want to be promoted to the level of a general, if you don't have the strength, you will be a deputy general if you go to the sky. Zhou Cang grew up slowly from a small soldier, and the hardships can be imagined. If it weren't for Zhou Cang's unclean background and his yellow scarf, otherwise, he would be at the level of a lieutenant now. Fortunately, the Shenwu Imperial Court doesn't mind people from the Yellow Turban, as long as you don't rebel again, the dead bones of Zhang Jiao and other thieves have turned into soil, so naturally they don't care. After Zhou Cang's identity was revealed, no one would care.

Zhou Cang can't hide his identity if he wants to, and the "dark department" is not a vegetarian.

Seeing that Zhou Cang was so confident, Huang Zhong felt that Jia Xu did not recommend the wrong person, so he handed over the task of ambushing and Cihe to Zhou Cang.

Zhou Cang took the military order briskly, this task is pediatric for him, and what he is best at is ambushing others. Before leaving, Zhou Cang looked at Jia Xu very gratefully. Since being taken by Jia Xu's side, Zhou Cang knew that his life had changed, Jia Xu was a very powerful person, so powerful that Zhou Cang felt scared. In the past, when he was in the Yellow Turban, Zhou Cang felt that Zhang Jiao was the most powerful person in the world, even if the Yellow Turban failed, Zhou Cang still thought that Zhang Jiao was very powerful. But after following Jia Xu, Zhou Cang realized how stupid his ideas were back then. Jia Xu's talent is not known how many times stronger than Zhang Jiao, and he can flood Shouchun with a wave of his hand. Such a powerful person is actually willing to submit to His Majesty today, one can imagine how stupid the Yellow Turban Rebellion that Zhang Jiao arose back then, so stupid that he forgot about it.

Huang Zhong gave Zhou Cang 8,000 elite men to secretly go to the upper reaches of the Ci River to ambush, and once they found Cao's troops, they could act at will.

Before Zhou Cang set off, Jia Xu gave Zhou Cang a small roll of white cloth and told Zhou Cang to open it after eliminating Cao Jun. Zhou Cang knew that there must be an article in it, so he carefully placed it in a close place.

Huang Zhong led all the civil and military forces and the remaining army, and immediately marched towards Taihe City.

Huang Zhong's army was no faster than Lu Bu's march, and it took them almost a day to reach Taihe City. On the side of Taihe City, Lu Bu and Pang Tong had already prepared the camp tents of the large army, so that they could rest after the arrival of Huang Zhong's army. This made Huang Zhong very satisfied with his son-in-law Lu Bu, and after the whole army settled down, he greatly praised Lu Bu in the big tent in the army, but Lu Bu was very happy.

"Father-in-law, now that the army is assembled, my son-in-law suggests that the whole army will be killed to Ruyin City early tomorrow morning, so as not to allow Cao Cao to support Ruyin." Lu Bu stood beside Huang Zhong very obediently and suggested.

"Ruyin is the place where Cao Cao must suffer, I'm afraid that there are already heavy troops arranged, even if you leave tonight, you won't be able to take Ruyin City in a short time." Huang Zhong said.

His suggestion was refuted, Lu Bu had no opinion, he didn't dare to go against Lao Taishan, and said modestly: "What my father-in-law said is, what will our army do next?" ”

"Mr. Wenhe, it's up to you to arrange the whole army now." Huang Zhong handed over the power of arranging the army to Jia Xu.

Jia Xu took it very unceremoniously.

Pang Tong on the side wanted to slap himself, this Jia Xu must have taken advantage of the time he was with Huang Zhong to communicate with Huang Zhong desperately, fooling Huang Zhong and making Huang Zhong very trusting. If he hadn't gone out with Lu Bu before, he wouldn't have given Jia Xu such a good opportunity, he was really stupid.

Pang Tong is really stupid, if he can settle down a little and carefully analyze the whole overall situation, he is the one who gives orders now.

Jia Xu looked at everyone and arched his hand and said: "Generals, lords, the old man has the permission of the general, and now relevant arrangements are being made for the generals and adults!" ”

"Follow Mr. Wenhe's instructions!" The crowd replied.

Jia Xu said to Lu Bu: "General Lu, you lead 20,000 wolf horsemen from Bingzhou, as the vanguard, one step ahead of the army, and clear all obstacles for the army. ”

"The last general commands!" Lu Bu's favorite thing is to be a pioneer.

Jia Xu glanced at Ma Chao and said, "General Ma, you led 30,000 cavalry, and after following General Lu, you thought it was a response!" ”

"The last general understands!" Ma Chao is glad that he has a task.

Jia Xu glanced at Zhao Yun again, hesitated, and said, "General Zilong stayed in Taihe City!" However, the flag must not be exposed. ”

Zhao Yun knew that Jia Xu had said before that he would guard against Cao Jun's sneak attack in Taihe City, and he understood his intentions very well.

Lu Bu didn't understand and asked, "Mr. Wenhe, why is this?" ”

Jia Xu smiled silently.

Pang Tong understood a little and said, "Fengxian, Mr. Wenhe's move has a deep meaning. If you're guessing right. The army went to Ruyin, and General Zhao's banner was to be displayed with great fanfare. ”

Lu Bu then understood that this was to confuse Cao Jun.

"The old man concluded that Cao Cao would definitely send someone to attack Taihe to cut off our army's rear route. Therefore, General Zhao was left behind. The old man is a general in the army, only General Zhao is calm and can do this! Jia Xu said.

"Mr. Wenhe, stay here to assist General Zhao." Pang Tong unexpectedly chose to stay.

Jia Xu was puzzled, but after thinking about it, Zhao Yun has a calm personality, but it would be more appropriate if Pang Tong left to help.

"The old man is about to speak, who knows Shiyuan, you recommend yourself, then follow what you want!" Jia Xu was very refreshing, and at the same time did not forget to put gold on his face.

Pang Tong really wants to burst into foul language, you old thing is really shameless.

"The rest of the people follow the general and kill Ruyin City!" Jia Xu said solemnly.

"I'll do as I was told." The people took the command.

After everyone went out, Jia Xu secretly said beside Huang Zhong: "General, we have to secretly prepare some siege equipment in advance to catch Cao Cao off guard." ”

"Mr. Wenhe is so sure that Cao Cao will definitely be in Ruyin City?" Huang Zhong was puzzled, would Jia Xu be too confident.

Jia Xu replied: "With Cao Cao's style of acting, even if he arrives in Ruyin City, he will not show his face in public." The importance of Ruyin City, presumably if Cao Cao does not sit in person, I am afraid that Cao's army will not be able to resist the attack of our army. ”

As soon as he said this, Huang Zhong believed it. Cao's army did not have many troops, and only a single force could withstand a large-scale attack by Liu's army.

Jia Xu continued: "I also asked the general to give an order to Sima Yi and Zhuge Liang, so that they could send a group of soldiers and horses to come, for such a long time, the two of them have not moved, this is not good." ”

Huang Zhong smiled, Jia Xu was really thoughtful, even Sima Yi and Zhuge Liang thought of it.

Jia Xu didn't know what Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi were doing, but if he wanted to take Ruyin City, he had to cooperate with Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi.

Huang Zhong finally gave the order according to Jia Xu's strategy.

After doing this, Jia Xu came to Pang Tong's camp and looked for Pang Tong for something.

Pang Tong stayed in Taihe City, so he planned to take a good rest, but after Jia Xu arrived, Pang Tong had to get up.

"Mr. Wenhe is here, I don't know what advice you have?" Pang Tong asked.

Jia Xu said with a smile: "Shiyuan, the old man has a great contribution to you, I don't know if you are interested?" ”

"Great work?" Pang Tong's mind turned sharply, and he said: "If Mr. Wenhe has an order, just say it directly, as long as you can do it in the future, you will definitely not refuse." ”

"Okay, Shi Yuan is really quick to speak." Jia Xu praised Pang Tong, and then said: "After Shiyuan and Zilong defeated Cao Jun, they gave up Taihe and went straight to Lixin. ”

At that moment, Pang Tong understood, gave up Taihe City, attacked Lixin, and then attacked Shangcai, and killed Shouchun.

"Does Mr. Wenhe want to kill Xiang Shouchun in the next place?" Pang Tong said with a smile.

"Shiyuan is really the first scholar in Nanzhou, and he can get through at one point." Jia Xu continued: "Shi Yuan should know that we, as courtiers, should share your Majesty's worries. That's a great achievement! ”

Understand! Of course Pang Tong understands. Isn't it just to seize the opportunity to kill Liu Xie! Of course, Pang Tong understood it in his heart.

The old fox is really ruthless enough, this kind of headless thing actually encourages others to do it, he is a good man.

Pang Tongyi said righteously: "Mr. Wenhe, rest assured, I will definitely share your Majesty's worries in the future." In the future, Your Majesty will reward you for your meritorious deeds, and you will definitely tell Mr. Wenhe's teachings in the future, so that Your Majesty can know Mr. Wenhe's loyalty. ”

Jia Xu wanted to scold people, and if he had to tell Liu Yu about this kind of thing, he was simply asking for trouble.

But Jia Xu couldn't be unusual, and pretended to be pleased and said: "Shiyuan is really a gentleman!" The old man is grateful. ”

"Mr. Wenhe is a pillar of the country." Pang Tong reciprocated.

The two of them smiled tacitly.

Jia Xu left Pang Tong's tent and then returned to his own tent. Jia Xu didn't care about the meaning in Pang Tong's words.

Liu Xie is an unstable factor in the Shenwu Imperial Court in the future, and it is very rare for the world to be unified, Jia Xu doesn't want his children and grandchildren to experience troubled times like himself. In public and private, Jia Xu can't let Liu Xie and his children stay in this world.

Jia Xu knew that all the strategists under Liu Yu's command didn't want Liu Xie to live, and he directly implemented it. And the small roll of cloth he gave to Zhou Cang was one of the arrangements.

The old fox did not let go of every detail.
