549.Chapter 549 The Hand Behind the Scenes
On the city wall, next to Liu Bei stood a scribe who had just reached the crown, he recalled Guan Yu's heroic posture of killing the enemy, and couldn't help but lose his mind.
Killed three generals of the Yuan army with three swords, and scared another person away, this kind of record is simply a bit appalling.
The scribe secretly thought in his heart: "Guan Yunchang is really a tiger general, no wonder the lord has been sparing no effort to recruit this person." If this person leads the troops to charge into battle and capture the flag, it will really be invincible and invincible. ”
Liu Bei looked at the scribe beside him who had just reached the crown, his eyes were full of longing.
He gave a long bow to the young scribe and said, "Thanks to Mr. here this time, otherwise I would have captured Chen Liu and defeated the Yuan army brought by Chun Yuqiong, I'm afraid that even I myself would be defeated and buried here." ”
Facing this young scribe, Liu Bei lowered his posture very low. Because he knew that he was able to achieve such a brilliant record, all relying on the plan of the person in front of him.
Looking at Liu Bei, who looked sincere and grateful, the young scribe hurriedly returned the salute and said: "Liu Yuzhou is the pastor of a state, and he is a relative of the Han family. I'm just a hairy boy. The kid has no talent and no virtue, how can Liu Yuzhou give me such a gift? ”
Liu Bei said: "Since ancient times, the master has come first, although Mr. has just reached the crown, but there is a talent in his chest." Compared with Mr., it is like the difference between jackdaw and Luanfeng. ”
"If the gentlemen are all talentless and virtuous people, where will they be placed?"
The young scribe in front of him, who had just won the crown, was Sima Yi, who had accepted Chen Xu's secret mission.
At the beginning, Liu Bei was defeated by Gao Gan three times, and he himself was hit by an arrow, so he was in a coma in a hurry.
Just when Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were worried and ready to retreat, Sima Yi took Guan Ping and more than a hundred black-armored guards to Liu Bei's camp.
After Sima Yi was taken into the camp by Guan Yu, he checked Liu Bei's injuries and asked the military doctor about his detailed condition.
The military doctor said: "Liu Yuzhou's arrow is just a skin wound, and for some reason he himself is unconscious." ”
After Sima Yi learned the detailed battle situation, he knew that Liu Bei's coma was not due to an arrow wound, but because of heart disease.
Liu Bei has few ambitions and has always wanted to make a career.
However, he is now nearly forty years old, although he is nominally the pastor of a state, he is also a small general, no more than Sun Qian, Jian Yong, no more than Guan Yu, Zhang Fei.
Rao is like this, Liu Bei is still tenacious and always wants to achieve great things.
However, this time, Liu Bei racked his brains to come up with a few strategies, but he was repeatedly recognized by others, and he lost his troops and generals.
If he was defeated in the hands of Chen Xu, Yuan Shao, and Cao Cao, Liu Bei would not feel anything. However, Gao Gan was only a junior of Yuan Shao, and Liu Bei was repeatedly defeated here.
Liu Bei, who returned to the camp after the arrow, thought that he couldn't even compare with a junior of others, let alone be on a par with other princes.
The more Liu Bei thought about it, the more depressed he felt in his heart, and finally he passed out and couldn't afford to be sick. Rao is military doctor checked and checked, but after all, he still didn't find out what the reason was.
Sima Yi learned the reason for Liu Bei's coma, and knew that heart disease still needed heart medicine. He whispered in Liu Bei's ear at that time, as long as you can wake up, it will only be between ten days to defeat Chen Liu.
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei knew that Chen Liu was difficult to overcome, and when they heard Sima Yi's wild words, they immediately disliked it. It's just that after Liu Bei, who was in a coma, heard this, he actually woke up leisurely, and immediately spoiled Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.
After Liu Bei woke up, he didn't care about anything else, first finished the ceremony with Sima Yi, and then began to discuss the matter of breaking Chen Liu.
According to Sima Yi's suggestion, Liu Bei blocked the news of his wake-up, and instead created the illusion that the sergeants and soldiers were disheartened because of the hot weather.
In this way, Liu Jun set up the camp in the woods, and it became justified.
After Guan Yu and Zhang Fei learned Sima Yi's strategy to lure the snake out of the hole, they were still a little unimpressed. They feel that high-level cadres are not extraordinary, and it is impossible to be successful.
Liu Bei was able to overcome public opinion and completely adopted Sima Yi's suggestion.
I have to say that Sima Yi has learned a lot in Guan over the years, and he may be even more terrifying than the Sima Yi in history. From Jia Xu, he also learned a lot of ability to figure out people's hearts.
He inquired about the deeds of Gao Gan and knew that this person was a son of Chen Liugao's family, who was deeply valued by Yuan Shao, arrogant, and often pretentious.
Sima Yi expected that after this person defeated Liu Jun in a row, he would inevitably swell his confidence and not take Liu Jun seriously. When he learned that Liu Bei was still unconscious and set up camp in the woods, he would definitely go out of the city and rob the camp.
Sure enough, as Sima Yi expected, Gao Gan did use all the army in the city to attack Liu's camp.
In order to dispel the doubts in Gao Gan's heart, Sima Yi also asked people to tie a lot of straw figures, put armor on them and put them next to the camp, making a posture of Liu Jun's strict garrison.
Seeing this, Gao Gan really no longer had doubts, and immediately prepared to burn Liu Ying. As everyone knows, Liu Jun's camp that night was just an empty village.
In this way, Gao Gan was ambushed and killed.
Sima Yi expected that Gao Gan and Gao Rou were brothers, and Gao Rou would never sit idly by and watch Gao Gan lose and not send troops to rescue. Therefore, Sima Yi deliberately released dozens of Yuan soldiers and asked them to flee back to the city to report the news.
Moreover, Sima Yi also knew that Gao Rou had some talents, and it was very difficult to cheat the city. Only then did he arrange for Guan Ping, who was wearing Yuan Jun's clothes and armor, to let him blend in with this Yuan army deserter.
It's a good thing to have one more person in the team in the midst of war.
In the eyes of that General Yuan Jun, even if this person is a spy, he can't make much waves, so that General Yuan Jun didn't have any doubts about Guan Ping's identity.
In this way, Guan Ping killed the partial general of the Yuan army defending the city at a critical time, so that Liu Jun captured Chen Liu without much effort.
Before Sima Yi ambushed Gao Gan, he had already set a plan to defeat Chun Yuqiong's reinforcements.
So that night he sent for men to cut down the pontoon bridge over the Huiji River, and told people to guard all the roads leading to the north, so that no one was allowed to flee to report the news.
After the capture and killing of the Yuan sergeant who had escaped the net, Sima Yi asked the sergeant to cut off the river upstream, making the Huiji River shallow.
The weather is so hot that it only takes two days to dry the silt on both sides of the embankment. This is also why, Chun Yuqiong was next to the Huiji River at that time, and he was not suspicious because the silt on both sides of the bank was too wet.
In order to be on the safe side, to prevent there are still fish on the south bank of the Huiji River, even though Liu Bei has already captured Chenliu, the city is still covered with the banner of Yuan Jun.
What Sima Yi didn't expect was that he didn't lead the troops over after waiting for Chun Yuqiong for a few days, so he sent someone to disguise himself as a soldier of Yuan Jun and go to ask for help.
Sima Yi did all this just to prevent long nights and dreams.
