The fifth year of the Warring States period, the first month.

Camp Escape.

The weather was very cold, the cold winter had not completely passed, there were small snowflakes floating in the sky, and the camp established between the water and Hefei City, and the soldiers trained to let out a burst of howls, filling the sky.

Since Wu and Wei negotiated peace, the Jiujiang region has calmed down, Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun have not retreated, still guarding against each other, but they have never gone to war.

Zhao Yun has been more leisurely recently, he is sitting in the center of the Chinese army's tent, holding a volume of 36 military books, word by word, carefully savoring one of the battle cases.

The Book of Thirty-six Strategies for War is a treasure book of the art of war that every general of the Wu military must learn today.

This is when the Jinling Lecture Hall was established, Sun Quan held the token of the great king Sun Jian, gathered more than a dozen generals of the Wu military, and it took a whole month to compile the military book.

When this art of war was born, it alarmed several great Confucians in Jiangdong, even Cai Yong and Zheng Xuan were alarmed, and later Sun Jian personally ordered it to be the first art of war book to learn in the army, and it is also the two major martial arts enlightenment art classics.

Zhao Yun, as a first-class tiger general in the Wu military, also participated in the compilation of the 36 tactics of the art of war, and also wrote the original Shouchun War into it as a teaching case.

Sun Quan has a good saying, the ancestor left us good things, and we must also pass on our good things and write military books, so that he can know his own shortcomings.

Thirty-six plans, this is Sun Quan personally proposed, what they, the battlefield generals, have to do is only to read the battle examples of the previous dynasties, or their own war examples, according to one strategy after another, and write them in it.

There are many military books that have been handed down in this era. The most famous are the Art of War, the Art of War, the Art of War, Liutao, Wu Zi, Wei Yizi, and Sima Fa...... But they look somewhat complicated. People who don't have a certain literary foundation can't understand it.

The latest compilation of the "Thirty-six Strategies" is simple, easy to understand, and clear, and easy to be accepted by the military's rough people.

In fact, all the art of war is the same. The Thirty-Six Schemes just gave them a chance to generalize.

Zhao Yun came from a humble background, practiced martial arts since he was a child, although he also read a certain number of military books, but he did not go through systematic learning, and many things on the battlefield were self-taught, relatively speaking, the use of the art of war, he was a little insufficient.

That's why it's on the battlefield in Jiujiang. The reason why he has been stared at and beaten by Zhang Liao.

He is a studious man, where is lacking. He added where he was, so these times, when he calmed down, he held the book of war all day long, frantically absorbing the knowledge of the art of war.

"General!" At this time. Outside the camp, a scout lieutenant strode in, faced Zhao Yun, and arched his hand: "Report to the general, the Wei soldiers in Huifeng Ridge have suddenly moved on a large scale. Returned to Shouchun, please make it clear to the general! ”

"It's just a trick, leave him alone!"

When Zhao Yun heard this, he put down the military book, and there was a sneer on the corner of his mouth, and said: "As long as Zhang Liao is not a fool, he will not come to provoke a battle between us at this time, Wu State's Western Expedition, Wei's Northern Expedition, we can't afford to fight the bloody battle of Jiujiang, and they can't afford to fight either, but their movements still have to be watched!" ”

The peace of Jiujiang was not negotiated, but forced, he did not dare to move, because he was afraid of affecting the Western Expedition, Zhang Liao did not dare to move, because he was afraid of affecting the Northern Expedition.

They all have the same reason, just hold on to each other, not to go to war.

"No!"

The captain of the scout heard this, nodded, and walked down.

"General, someone is outside the camp and asks to see you?" When Zhao Yun wanted to pick up the military book and read it again, a pro-guard soldier followed suit; Come in, whispered.

"Who?" Zhao Yun squinted.

"The person who came called himself Jinyiwei!" The soldier whispered.

"Jin Yiwei?"

When Zhao Yun heard this, he frowned slightly, Jinyiwei is a giant of the Wu Kingdom, and they set up a branch in the army to pass on military secrets, but there are few generals in the military who like Jinyiwei.

After all, Jin Yiwei's actions are too gloomy, and compared with the military's open-minded style, it is out of place.

He has some friendship with Li Ne, the governor of Jinyiwei, but their well water does not interfere with the river water, and it is difficult to become the right side of the battle situation in Jiujiang, thinking of this, he said softly: "Invite him in!" ”

"No!"

In less than a quarter of an hour, the soldiers brought a young man in, and the young man bowed to Zhao Yun, and said: "Under the seat of the Governor of Jinyi Wei, Jiang Hong of the hundred households, meet the hussar general!" ”

"You came to a certain military camp, what is the matter?" Zhao Yun looked at this young man, went directly to the topic, and asked.

Jiang Hong raised his head, his eyes swept slightly over a few pro-soldiers beside Zhao Yun, and he was silent, his meaning was obvious, this was a secret, so he asked Zhao Yun to retreat from everyone.

"Go down!"

Zhao Yun naturally understood, his heart moved slightly, it seemed that this matter was not small, so he waved his hand and asked the people around him to retreat.

"No!"

Several pro-soldiers glared at Jiang Hong with some resentment, and then obeyed the order to leave the camp.

"General, this is a letter written by Donghou himself, please look at it by the hussar general, and then burn it immediately!" Jiang Hong took out a letter and respectfully handed it to Zhao Yun.

"What? Donghou's letters? ”

When Zhao Yun heard this, he was slightly shocked, immediately stood up, quickly took the letter from Jiang Hong's hand, and then opened the letter and looked at it, it was indeed Sun Quan's handwriting.

But the moment he saw the content, his steady and unchanging face was shocked.

How is this possible?

The king was actually seriously injured in Jingzhou, and he was in danger!

Zhao Yun couldn't believe it, now that hundreds of thousands of troops on the front line of the Western Expedition are winning one after another, the entire Wu State is being passed down from one to another, and when the spring comes, Jingzhou will become the domain of the Wu State.

The momentum is so high, but the king has an accident at this juncture, and he can't believe what he says, is it possible that the people on the front line are all dead?

However, Sun Quan's handwritten letter, he had to believe it.

"What else does Donghou command?"

Zhao Yun's face was ugly, very ugly, he knew very well that the importance of this matter was related to the king of Wu. If it is not done well, this matter will even cause civil strife in the entire Wu country.

"Donghou has another word!"

Jiang Qin raised his head and said word by word: "General, I will be straight to the truth, please bear with me if I offend: Zhao Zilong, I believe in you." Therefore, I handed over Jinling City to you, Wu Guo, you can't mess around, anyone can be killed! ”

"The last general commands!"

When Zhao Yun heard this, he immediately knelt down on his knees and respectfully bowed in the direction of Jinling. Although it was not Sun Quan in person, Sun Quan's trust in him made him moved.

Since Sun Quan said so, that is to say, after he led his troops back to Jinling, as long as the situation in Wu State was stabilized, even if he killed everyone, Sun Quan would take it all in.

Ordered in danger. If you are not the most trusted, you can't take responsibility.

Thus. In Sun Quan's heart, he trusted him the most, otherwise Sun Quan also had troops in the East China Sea of Xuzhou, and Xu Sheng and Pan Zhang's generation could also lead their troops back, but they chose him.

"I will not disappoint your expectations!" Zhao Yun said secretly.

In front of Jiang Hong, he directly burned the letter in his hand. Then, without saying a word, he directly beat the drums and gathered the generals in his own camp.

In a short period of time, he had already thought of the best plan for retreating from Jinling.

Xiaoyao camp, with the pass Hefei Xiaoyaojin as the core of the camp. The navy, foot soldiers, cavalry, three arms, and the main force of the three armies are more than 60,000 soldiers gathered here, which is an important barracks of Wu State.

The most important thing is that this is the first front line of the war between Wei and Wu, and it is also the camp that has been fighting endlessly, so the soldiers in the Xiaoyao camp are all first-class elites.

"Gather all of you here today, the so-called one thing!"

Zhao Yun's tall and burly body stood up, his eyes were like a sight, he swept over the generals, and said coldly: "Tonight, the three armies will listen to the order, and all of them will go out to attack Shouchun!" ”

He wanted to withdraw his troops from Jinling, and the first trouble was Zhang Liao.

Therefore, he chose to strike first, beat Zhang Liao for a while, confused him, and then withdraw his troops, which should be able to resist for a while.

"What?"

When the generals of the camp heard this, they couldn't help but be stunned, and then they all looked at Zhao Yun in surprise, all of them were confused.

Tens of thousands of troops are moving, and it will take at least a few days to prepare.

It is very rare to be in such a hurry.

"General, why is that?"

One of the partial generals stood up, looked at Zhao Yun, and asked a question in a low voice: "We have already ceased war with Wei, and even if we start a war, we don't need to be so hasty, we are not prepared at all!" “

"General Ben's military order, do you need to analyze it with you?"

A majesty burst out from Zhao Yun's body, and he said coldly.

"The last general will not dare!"

When this partial general heard this, he trembled, and immediately gave up his hand, saying: "The last general will obey the general's military orders!" ”

"The last general swears to obey the general's military orders!"

The generals stood up one after another and saluted Zhao Yun, Zhao Yun had controlled the Xiaoyao camp for several years, and the majesty had already been ingrained, and his words and deeds were full of powerful oppressive force.

"This is an assessment of your training during this time!"

Zhao Yun looked at this scene, his face eased, and said lightly: "This battle will not be personally involved, General Xu Liang, who led the troops, the time for your attack is only one day, your cousin, a certain will let people record it one by one, launch a strong attack tonight, tomorrow at noon, take Shouchun City, a certain person for your light work, if you can't take Shouchun City, you must withdraw all your troops tomorrow evening, return to the Xiaoyao camp, and stick to Xiaoyaojin!" ”

"No!"

When the generals heard this, they were immediately relieved, it turned out to be an assessment of their training, and they immediately geared up one by one and began to prepare for a big fight.

"Xu Liang, Zhao Qi, you two stay!" Zhao Yun suddenly shouted.

"No!"

Xu Liang and Zhao Qi were both among Zhao Yun's confidants, and they rose all the way up with Zhao Yun's surrender to Wu in Liaodong.

In the past, the three confidants of Baima Yicong, Chen Fangzai's Shouchun City, died in the battle, and there were only these two people left around him, and now they are all partial generals, as long as they rise one step, they will be miscellaneous generals.

"When you led your troops to attack Shouchun, I took this opportunity to personally lead three thousand white horse servants to return to Jinling!" Zhao Yun stood up and said.

Since Sun Quan asked him to lead his troops back, he obviously didn't believe the Nanxi camp guarding Jinling.

Sun Quan now trusts him, he must not let Jinling fall into a crisis, so he must return to Jinling as quickly as possible.

"Return to Jinling?" The two were shocked.

"You don't have to ask what the specifics are, but you all have to remember what I'm going to say next." Zhao Yundao.

"Yes!"

The faces of the two of them became solemn.

Zhao Yun's eyes flashed with a gleam, and said: "Shouchun's battle is not to break the enemy, in fact, it is to cover up people's eyes and ears, to cover up the whereabouts of our withdrawal from Jinling, after you attack Shouchun for a day, immediately return to Xiaoyaojin and stick to Xiaoyaojin, understand!" ”

"Understood!"

"Then, Zhao Qi led 30,000 troops back to Jinling, and the Xiaoyao camp still left 30,000 soldiers and horses, Xu Liang, you come to guard Xiaoyaojin!"

"Me?"

Xu Liang was slightly shocked when he heard this.

"Yes!"

This is the fastest way for Zhao Yun to react, Xiaoyaojin is important to Jinling, he naturally understands, the most important thing is that he believes that Xu Liang can hold Xiaoyaojin, and said: "Zhao Qi leads the troops, the Xiaoyao camp is bound to be empty, whether you can stick to the camp depends on your appearance, this battle must keep Xiaoyaojin!" ”

"No!"

Xu Liang felt a heavy pressure, but he was a little excited, he was finally able to take charge on his own. (To be continued......)
