Chapter 131: Regrouping and Fighting Jingzhou Again (4)

Outside the city of Gangneung - the big tent of the Chinese army, a military meeting is underway, Feng Ji, Gao Shun, Cai Mao, Zhang Yun, and Huang Rat...... They were all wearing armor and holding swords, and their eyes fell on Xiao Yi, but Xiao Yi's ghostly gaze fell on a map of Jingzhou!

More than 100,000 Sun and Liu allied troops marched westward, all the way against the Yangtze River to take Jiangling, all the way along the Han River to attack Xiangyang, just like two huge iron fists, smashed over, smashed or harmed!

"The enemy is strong and I am weak, there is a huge difference, how to win this battle?"

"The territory is vast and the troops are limited, how should Jingzhou defend?"

"Kong Ming is resourceful, Pang Tong is decisive, and Zhou Yu is extremely good at using troops, what are your chances of winning against these powerful figures?"

………………………………

Countless questions entwined in his heart, making Xiao Yi's chest stuffy and breathless, just like carrying a mountain, and he had to straighten his waist and resist this pressure, he was the backbone of the army, and he must not show a little cowardice!

The enemy attacked, defending by himself, but the troops in his hands were too small, and the territory of Jingzhou was too big.

"The enemy is strong and I am weak, it is difficult to defeat the enemy, dare to ask Mr. Wenhe, there is a way to reverse the situation, please give me a lesson or two!"

Xiao Yi clasped his hands into fists and bowed to the shadows, the 'poisoner' Jia Xu stood there, full of gloomy energy, but his eyes were extraordinarily bright, in the entire Chinese army tent, he was the only one who did not wear armor!

"I don't dare to give the word teaching, since the big Sima asked, the old man has a few stupid suggestions, maybe a little useful:

First of all: it is difficult to fight with one person, and it is easy to fight with two, if you want to win this battle, you must break up the alliance of Sun and Liu, and it is best to let them turn against each other, so that we can profit!

Secondly, Jingzhou has a vast territory, and our army has limited strength, if we divide our troops to defend it, it will be broken by the enemy individually, so it is better to concentrate our forces and defend the vital places!

In the end, the city is dead, the people and horses are alive, rather than saving the city and losing people, it is better to save people and lose the city, if you want to reverse the situation, you must know the word "willing"! ”

Jia Xuxian's strategy is as low-key, practical, and vicious as himself, and it looks ordinary, if he is bitten, he will inevitably get three points into the bone!

In addition, the poisoner only gives advice and never imposes interference, anyway, everything that should be said is said, how much you listen depends on the commander's heart, and how much you do depends on the commander's ability!

"Willing, willing, there is a give-and-take, the more you give up today, the more you will get tomorrow, Mr. Wenhe has a high opinion, this great Sima has been taught!"

Xiao Yi pondered for a moment, suddenly smiled, and saluted Jia Xu again, most of the dark clouds in his heart dissipated, and the strategy and tactics were determined: 'Use the big stride back in exchange for the big stride forward!' ’

"The enemy army is menacing, we are difficult to resist, it is better to avoid the edge for the time being, this great Sima has decided: abandon Jiangling City and retreat to Xiangyang City!

All the departments prepared a lot of vehicles, and set off the day after tomorrow, taking away all the money, grain, grass, and ordnance in the city, leaving nothing for the big-eared thieves! ”

"Abandon the city and go—No!"

After the military order was issued, all the generals were surprised, they had been fighting with Da Sima for many years, and they had always met the enemy's charge and won bloody battles, and they had never abandoned the city and fled?

What's more, Jiangling has a large population and a rich place, and is known as Jingzhou's 'money bag', so such an important city was ceded to Liu Beijun, which is incredible, right?

But the military order is like a mountain, no one dares to disobey it, and they have gone down to prepare, and some people are secretly speculating that Da Sima has always used soldiers like a god, and this time he abandoned Jiangling City without a fight, maybe he is digging a trap again, right?

Next, Gangneung City was lively, and several teams were like locusts, looting the treasury, gold, silver, food, ordnance, cloth, and medicinal herbs...... Anything that has a little value and can be carried will be loaded and taken away!

During this period, some soldiers privately proposed that there were many wealthy families in Jiangling City, and they would abandon the city anyway, so it was better to plunder the army and get a lot of property!

Now it is the beginning of autumn, the rice outside the city is about to ripen, and the army retreats and cannot be harvested, it is better to burn it with a fire, and the province is cheaper Liu Beijun!

As soon as this proposal appeared, many soldiers rubbed their fists and prepared to kill people and set fires, but they were vetoed by Xiao Yi, and personally inspected the city.

If you plunder today, you will indeed get a lot of money, but you will lose the hearts of the people, and you will not want to enter Gangneung City again in the future!

As for the rice outside the city, staying will be cheap for the enemy, but Jingzhou has been in turmoil for more than a year, and the people are already miserable, if a fire burns down the straw, I don't know how many people will starve to death, this lack of virtue Xiao Yi will never do it!

"Da Sima's merits are immeasurable! --Da Sima loves the people like a son! ”

……………………

Two days later, the army set off for Xiangyang, during which there was inevitably some chaos in the city, in order to prevent thieves from making trouble, Xiao Yi left some low-level officials to maintain law and order in Jiangling City, waiting for Liu Beijun to come to receive, it can be said that it is well-intentioned!

As the saying goes: Jun loves the people like a son, the people respect the king like a father, Xiao Yi loves Jiangling so much, in exchange for the people's hearts to be obedient, when the army leaves the city, the people help the old and the young, eat pot pulp, bid farewell to the big Sima at the gate of the city, and there are countless people who kneel and cry!

In this situation, the soldiers are all happy and convinced, Da Sima is really smart, although he abandoned Jiangling City, he has won countless people's hearts, and this transaction is not a loss at all!

And on the way to the march, Xiao Yi issued another military order: 'Let the three counties of Changsha, Guiyang, and Lingling be guarded, and lead the men and horses of the headquarters, as well as the money and grain in the treasury, to quickly come to Xiangyang City to converge!" ’

"Is this really Da Sima's order, the land and cities of the three counties have been given to the big-eared thieves for nothing?"

"There are a total of nine counties in Jingzhou, and three of them were sent out casually, but Changsha County is the fief of the Xiao family, and they also gave it up together?"

……………………………………

After the news came out, there was a big uproar in the army, some people were puzzled, some people were surprised, and some people were resolutely opposed, and they wanted to collectively advise Da Sima, but Jia Xu didn't say a word and secretly gave a thumbs up!

Although the city is the foundation of the king, it is also a heavy burden, Liu Bei got Jiangling City and the land of the three counties, and he must divide his troops to garrison, how many mobile troops can be left?

What's more, Liu Bei's power is relatively weak, and now he has the territory of three counties, and he needs to appoint officials, pacify the people, and levy taxes...... There is no four or five months, don't think about digesting this 'big fat meat', in other words, in half a year, it is difficult for Liu Bei Group to make a big move!

Jiaozhou's Shixie Group is also eyeing the south of Jingzhou, so that Liu Bei can get the three counties of Changsha, Guiyang, and Lingling, and there will inevitably be a conflict with the Baiyue tribe.

Using the land of the three counties to tie Liu Bei firmly, Xiao Yi can concentrate his forces to deal with Zhou Yu's Jiangdong army, this is a clever plan to kill two birds with one stone, but the idle people can't understand it!

…………………………………………………………

"What--Cao Jun abandoned the city and retreated to the direction of Xiangyang, could it be Xiao Yi's trick again?"

"Order all the officers and men: stop advancing, stay in place, prepare for defense, and especially be careful of night attacks!"

"No!"

Liu Bei's tens of thousands of horses - upstream, water and land, have approached the periphery of Jiangling City, and suddenly learned that Xiao Yi abandoned the city and left, everyone was surprised!

And Liu Bei's first reaction was not to rush into the army to capture the city, but to order the troops to stop advancing, and quickly changed the original offensive formation into defense, like a frightened bird!

It's no wonder that Liu Bei is too timid, it's really that in the past confrontations, he has suffered too many losses from Xiao Yi, and he has left a deep shadow in his heart, for fear that this is another trap, waiting for him to jump into it!

Kong Ming, Pang Tong, and Xu Shu are also contemplative, Jiangling City is extremely rich, known as Jingzhou's money bag, and its strategic location is also extremely important, I thought there would be a fierce battle, but I didn't want to leave an empty city!

Others abandoned the city and left, maybe it was cowardice and cowardice, Xiao Yi abandoned the city and left, then it was another matter, did he use Jiangling City as a bait to encircle and annihilate tens of thousands of horses on his side, whether to attack with fire or flood?

"We respectfully invite Uncle Liu Huang to enter the city, and there is a letter to deliver!"

"The things of the labor army are ready, and don't hurt the people of Li!"

……………

Just when everyone was suspicious, the gate of Gangneung City opened, and a group of officials held household registration and keys...... came to Liu Bei's army to surrender, and there was a letter and a horse!

The letter was written by Xiao Yi himself, explaining that he was sincere in sending the city and had no conspiracy, and hoped that after Liu Bei entered the city, he would restrain his subordinates and soldiers and not harass the people, as for the horse, it was a gift to Guan Yu!

At the beginning of the swamp, Xiao Yi was under siege, so he had to use deception to cut Guan Yu, and then he was lucky to break through, but afterwards he felt a little guilty in his heart, thinking that he had the spirit of a loser!

Therefore, after returning to Jiangling City, he specially selected a war horse and gave it to Guan Yu for the purpose of apology, and it was also a jujube red horse - tall and mighty, running like flying, although it was not as good as the red rabbit horse divine horse, it was also a good horse in a thousand!

"Xiao Yi avoids the edge, abandons the empty city, wins the hearts of the people, this hand is clever, how can the old man deal with it?"

"The people think of its benefits, nothing but kindness, and the lord treats the people with kindness, why worry about the people's hearts!"

"The matter of collecting people's hearts can be slowly planned, and the top priority of our army is to attack the city and have a foothold!"

After Liu Bei read the letter, he asked the officials in detail, and when he learned what Xiao Yi had done, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion, not hurting the people in the battle, and respecting the opponent during the fight, this is the heart of the co-owner of the world!

After Kong Ming, Pang, and Xu Shu discussed, they probably guessed Xiao Yi's tactic, which was to use the city land to tie their footsteps, and then divide the Sun and Liu alliances, the most clever thing about this plan is that people can't refuse!

Next, when the army entered Jiangling City, Liu Bei really restrained his subordinates and did not allow them to harass the lives of the people, and personally visited the three elders and celebrities, and worked hard to win the hearts of the people!

He also sent Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, and Wei Yan to lead a team of men and horses to capture the three counties of Changsha, Guiyang, and Lingling, seize territory, and expand their strength.
