The small walls of Yixian County are low, almost like a slightly larger dock fort, and at the low city gate, many scouts are busy going in and out, as if they are connected into a spider web that leads in all directions, sending information from all over the place back to a certain point in the city as quickly as possible.

Seeing Zhang Liao waiting at the city gate, Qiu Ming was surprised: "Why do you look like you are facing a great enemy?" Aren't there only 30,000 rebels? It's not like this in front of Guangzong's hundreds of thousands of yellow scarves. ”

Zhang Liao smiled slightly, still with a solemn face: "It's hard to say, this battle is not easy to fight." ”

Dian Wei said disapprerovingly: "What's so bad about fighting?" If you want me to say, just rush over and cut down all those Beigong Boyu, Li Wenhou, Bian Zhang, and Han Sui, won't you win? Qiuming Zhang Liao shook his head and smiled bitterly, but Yang Aruo looked at Dian Wei with burning eyes, obviously agreeing with his words.

After the camp was completed, Qiu Ming followed Li Ru into Huangfu Song's big tent. Huangfu Song was looking at the map, and beside him, a tall and strong fat man was talking, but it was Dong Zhuo and Dong Zhongying, who he had seen in Guangzong.

Dong Zhuo said loudly: "The general of the chariot cavalry is arranged like this, but I can't understand it, why don't you line up in front of the army in a dignified manner and fight to the death with the rebels, but instead dismantle the troops into pieces of this and that, isn't it convenient for them to break them individually?" ”

Huangfu Song looked up and saw Qiu Ming, a trace of warmth appeared in his eyes, but he asked Dong Zhuo: "In your opinion, if it is a decisive battle, what is the chance of our army winning?" ”

Dong Zhuo lowered his head and calculated: "There are many Qiang people, and Bian Zhang Han Sui is also quite familiar with military affairs, and victory or defeat should be in the number of five or five." ”

Huangfu Song said: "Huqiang is newly defeated, the imperial court has no formed army on the western front, if our army is defeated again, the three auxiliaries will be lost, and the emperor's mausoleum will be lost, and I am afraid that the west of Hangu will no longer be owned by the state!" ”

Dong Zhuo said loudly: "Then the general of the chariot cavalry can defeat the rebels with such an arrangement?" ”

"Although it may not be able to win, it may not be able to lose, first maintain an undefeated and undefeated situation, and wait for it to change."

Dong Zhuo was furious, but he didn't dare to confront Huangfu Song in person, and when he saw Li Ru coming into the tent, he said happily: "Wen You is here?" In your opinion, how is this formation of our army? ”

Li Ru said with a smile: "The general of the chariot cavalry is proficient in the art of war, and such an arrangement must have deep meaning, how dare you put your beak in your humble position?" ”

Huangfu Song said: "It's okay for you to say it. Dong Zhuo also wiped his face: "If you are to be defeated again this time, my old Dong will definitely be cut down from his post and thrown to the end for the people, and the general of the Che Cavalry will also be greatly implicated, you just have to say, no one will blame you." ”

Li Ru walked to Huangfu Song's map to check carefully, and Qiu Ming also quietly followed and looked left and right, only to see a volume full of pen marks, which made him dizzy and almost unable to find the direction.

Li Ru looked at it for a while, and said loudly: "Huangfu rode this formation, it seems that he wants to retreat as an advance, resist one by one, consume the enemy's vital strength, and then lead the rebels to the vicinity of WG County, and then launch a counterattack, and it will be decided in a battle." ”

Huangfu Song looked at him with blazing eyes, nodded and said, "Yes, I mean so, how sure do you think you are?" ”

Li Ru groaned: "This formation lures the enemy deep and does not give the enemy a chance to annihilate our army, which can be described as stable, but there are two questions I want to ask the emperor to answer." First, this formation uses martial arts as the gate, but since Zhang Jiqiang robbed the people's daughters, the villagers of martial arts have complained a lot about our army, and if they collude with the rebels in turn, Li Yu may not be able to hold the martial arts; Second, now the price of rice in Chang'an City changes three times a day, and the imperial court is always willing to give only half of the grain and grass. ”

Huangfu Song's brows were deeply locked, but Dong Zhuo was proud: "Since Wen You said so, there must be a good plan, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it." ”

Li Ru's eyes flashed: "I have a plan, I can make Liangzhou peaceful, Qianghu cut off the roots, and I don't dare to look east for a hundred years." ”

Huangfu Song and Dong Zhuo were both overjoyed, and they were busy asking Ji Ji to come out, and Qiu Ming also secretly asked Guo Jia beside him, Guo Jia thought about it and said one word: "Poison." ”

Sure enough, Li Ru smiled gently: "Since the beginning of Yong's early years, Yunnan has raised troops, and it has been nearly a hundred years since Qiang rebelled. What's more, its population is too large, and the cattle and sheep are not enough to eat. Even if we can defeat the rebels this time, in a few years they will come back again, and the cycle will repeat itself, and eventually become a problem for the court's henchmen. ”

"For today's plan, I don't think I need to care about the gains and losses of one city and one place, but to give Qianghu a complete kill. The martial arts are still too early, we can directly retreat to Chang'an and let all the rebels in. ”

Huangfu Song's eyes flickered and said, "What about after you put it in?" ”

"The Qiang people used soldiers to drive cattle and horses along with the army, so they did not risk the grain road being attacked. Cattle and horses can not be without water for a day, we can collect the cattle and sheep that died of the epidemic and put them into Weishui, as long as there is a cow and a horse infected with the epidemic, the whole army of the Qiang people will be wiped out, and the remaining Bian Zhang Han Sui's generation is insignificant. ”

Huangfu Song and Dong Zhuo were both shocked, and asked together: "Weishui is the foundation of Guanzhong, if it is infected with the epidemic, what will my army and civilians do?" ”

Li Ru said unhurriedly: "Ba Chan Feng is as drinkable as possible, even if some barren mountain and wild people have not been notified, but how can there be immortals in war." If this plan is successful, the defeated Qiang people will bring the epidemic back to their hometown, and within three years, the Qiang Hu in Liangzhou will be gone, and they will no longer be able to make waves. ”

Huangfu Song shook his head and said nothing, Dong Zhuo's eyes flickered, but Qiu Ming was stunned, isn't this the primitive germ warfare? The Tatars played this trick back then and almost destroyed most of Europe, but if Li Ru used this trick now, it is estimated that the Tatars in history would be wiped out before they appeared.

After all, Huangfu Song was born as a scholar, and he didn't dare to hurt the heavens, so he thought about it for a long time and still didn't adopt Li Ru's strategy. Li Ru smiled casually and didn't speak. Huangfu Song looked at Qiu Ming and said: "The situation of our army is unfavorable, what is the best strategy for Cheng?" ”

Seeing the fierce light in Dong Zhuo's eyes, Qiu Ming waved his hand and smiled: "I'm new here, and I haven't even figured out the terrain, how dare I come up with ideas?" Dong Zhuo saw Qiu Ming so acquainted, he finally put away the dissatisfied look on his face, and said with a smile: "Anyway, it's just for reference, you might as well talk about it." ”

Qiuming said: "To the west of Jincheng, there are still Jiuquan, Zhangye, Dunhuang three counties have not been in turmoil, why not spread the three counties to attack Jincheng, the rebel base will be lost will return to the army to rescue, our army will chase after the tail, should be able to break the Qianghu." ”

Dong Zhuo shook his head and said: "This method is not feasible, it is a long way to go to the three counties, and if there is no guide to guide the way, most of them will be trapped in the Gobi." Moreover, the rebels sent a large number of rangers to cover the battlefield, and we once sent many messengers who were familiar with the terrain, but they were all intercepted and killed by the rebels on the way, and many lives were lost in vain. ”

Qiu Ming said: "But there is a messenger sent by Jiuquan Taishou in my camp now......" As soon as the words came out, Huangfu Song and Dong Zhuo were both excited, and they stood up all of a sudden.
