"Zilong, have you eaten yet? How are you in a good mood?" Yan Liang asked Zhao Yun with a smile when he returned to the military camp, making everyone laugh.
Zhao Yun's angry look just now was so visceral that Zhao Yun, who had returned to his normal state, couldn't help scratching his head and laughing.
"Zilong, what trick was that just now? It's so powerful. I've never seen you use it before." In the Chinese army tent, Wen Chou thought about learning from Zhao Yun and took the initiative to ask for advice.
"Marquis Wen taught me some, and at that time I was so angry that I lost my mind. I didn't have any moves at all. I just relied on my thoughts." Looking back, Zhao Yun himself felt that the previous style of play was more suitable for him. marksmanship.
Moreover, even if it is not a one-on-one fight, the effect will not be compromised if it is put on the battlefield.
"It's so magical. This is the marksmanship you have learned, Zilong. It's better to have a name." Xu Sheng said with a smile.
"Name it."
Zhao Yun lowered his head in embarrassment and muttered, "What name is good?"
Yan Liang on the side stepped forward and said seriously: "Zilong's marksmanship was learned on the battlefield. It is extremely powerful. If you charge into the battle, you will be invincible. Let's call it a submachine gun."
"Get out!" As everyone laughed, Zhao Yun gave Yan Liang a middle finger in his heart. This guy with a brain circuit even more bizarre than Liao Shen always liked to talk serious nonsense.
"Yunwen, why don't you give me a name?" Zhao Yun looked at Lin Mo, who was also smiling on the commander's chair.
"You can pass my test"
Lin Mo subconsciously wanted to say Seven Exploration Snake Coiled Gun.
According to rumors, Zhao Yun has been fighting on the battlefield for many years, and he feels more and more that the Hundred Birds Phoenix Spear has serious drawbacks, so he is carefully improving and polishing it.
Once I encountered a snake-bird battle, I had an epiphany and then understood the Seven Detection Snake Coil Gun. The seven detections are like snakes, killing people with every move, and the snake coil is like a shield, which is watertight.
With this set of marksmanship, he was able to pin down and rub the toughest generals in the world on the ground one by one.
However, Zhao Yun in this dimension obviously does not use the Seven Exploration Snake Coil Gun. His marksmanship is obviously a brand-new marksmanship that he learned on the battlefield after being inspired by his old father-in-law. If he really wants to give it a name.
Lin Mo smiled and said: "I think submachine guns sound pretty good."
"Hahaha" laughed again.
Zhao Yun had a black line on his head, "I think about it myself."
Everyone is in a good mood. After all, Zhao Yun killed Jiangdong's warrior Tai Shici in Guanxia Formation. The impact on Jiangdong's military morale is immeasurable.
It is naturally impossible to say that the death of Taishi Ci can make more than 20,000 people in Jiangdong submit. However, with the morale of the army swaying, a strong attack is likely to be accomplished overnight.
However, Chen Gong didn't seem so optimistic. He stepped forward and frowned: "Taishici is dead, but what does Yunwen plan to do next?"
Lin Mo leaned against the handsome chair and glanced at Chen Gong, his expression became more serious, "Mr. Gongtai, just challenge as usual in the next few days."
"I've seen Zilong's bravery, and I'm worried that they won't be fooled again." Chen Gong shook his head.
"That's natural."
Lin Mo nodded, "After three days, all the siege equipment should be almost ready."
"Yunwen means, forceful attack?" Chen Gong's question also touched the hearts of others, who all looked at Lin Mo.
"Didn't I tell you this a long time ago? Of course it's a forceful attack. Is there any other way to go?" Lin Mo's natural question left Chen Gong speechless.
The casualties of a strong attack were too great. Even if Tai Shici died, the more than 20,000 people in Jiangdong did not suffer any losses at all. With the 38,000 people on hand, they would not be able to capture them even if they were all defeated.
Liu Ye also lowered his head. If we must attack by force, what do you mean by those words you said on the top of Hefei City? Is it just to let Mr. Qiao hold Jiangdong back?
It doesn't even look like it.
"If you attack with force, attack with force. The last general is willing to lead the army." Yan Liang was as brave as ever.
"allow."
After Lin Mo uttered a word, he raised his head and looked at the dome, sighing: "Let's pick the ones who will die first."
"Here!"
Everyone retreated, only Chen Gong remained in the military tent.
"Anything else?"
"Yunwen, you should know that even if we all fight, we still can't defeat Shucheng. The best result is that both sides will lose. I'm worried." Chen Gong's brows showed uneasiness.
"To tell you the truth, I have no choice. If I don't attack, they will never show any weakness." Lin Mo replied with a wry smile.
"Are you waiting for them to take the initiative?"
Chen Gong lowered his head and thought for a moment, "After a strong attack, you pretended that the casualties were too great and retreated to rest, and then lured them to rob the camp?"
This was the answer Chen Gong subconsciously thought of, but he was not optimistic about it.
The reason is simple. Shucheng is now the lifeblood of Jiangdong. This kind of bait cannot catch this big fish.
Lin Mo did not answer, but changed the topic, "Now Shucheng has been sealed off, and Mr. Qiao's letter cannot be delivered. He obviously wants to cut off my contact with him. He probably has not thought about how to use Mr. Qiao.
We also have to cut off Jiangdong's communication, otherwise it will ruin my plan. "
"It's not difficult. The siege may not be able to capture the city. There are still sufficient troops to besiege the city. Several post roads are also guarded. News from the outside cannot get in."
After Chen Gong said that, Lin Mo nodded, looked at the location of the Central Plains on the map and sighed. He didn't know where this guy would go in the end. It was really worrying.
Jin Xuan was the prefect of Wuling, and he was a descendant of the Xiongnu. His ancestor was Jin Rixi, who also entered the court and became an official during the Western Han Dynasty.
Not many people know about Jin Rixi, but Huo Qubing knows it like a thunder.
His ancestors were captured by Huo Qubing when they crossed Yanzhi Mountain to kill the Xiongnu. They were brought back to study Han culture, and finally became officials in the court.
This Jin Xuan can be regarded as having received the prefect of Wuling due to his ancestors' influence, but now he has no sign of being a barbarian. Even except for this surname, no one can tell that he is a descendant of the Huns.
Originally, he was loyal to the court, and the emperor was in the hands of Cao Cao, so he followed Cao Cao's words as an imperial edict.
However, Xia Houyuan's defeat resulted in everyone being captured, but Jin Xuan was so frightened that he could not wait for Cao Cao's order, so he opened the city and surrendered as soon as Liu Bei arrived in Linyuan.
This was expected, and it didn't make Liu Bei very excited, because they could only stop there.
He couldn't go to Jiangling City across the river.
Even, in order to hold on to these two hard-won counties, Zhuge Liang had to go to great lengths to deal with a series of military and political affairs.
Before he came to Linyuan, he immediately asked Sun Qian to recruit troops and horses in Lingling. Of course, the money and food used by the treasury were used. Liu Du felt unhappy, and said that he was the prefect, and such a big thing did not have his consent.
But if you are unhappy, you have to do what you have to do.
Then there is the application of Wuling City.
In the land of Jingxiang, Wuling City is the poorest and most barren city, and the population is also the scarcest. It was under such an environment that wild tribes like Samoko were born and could remain unregulated for a long time.
But being poor is a bit poor. Recruiting two to three thousand people is not a big problem. Taking into account Lingling's recruitment progress, the total strength should still be around 15,000 people.
But they are all new recruits, and it may not take more than a year or two to train them to be able to fight.
"Kong Ming, do you think Cao Cao will cross the river to retrieve Wuling and Lingling." Fifteen thousand, let alone a new soldier, even if he is an elite, he cannot stop Cao Cao's army. Liu Bei knows this.
Moreover, Wuling and Lingling are different from Jiangling. There are no strong cities. Once the enemy sends troops, Liu Bei will basically just run away with his head in his arms.
"Returning Xia Houyuan to him is enough for him to appease the hearts and minds of the army and the people. Now Lin Mo is being held back by Sun Ce, and the Northern Kingdom's military strength is scattered. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. He will not miss it for the sake of his lord, otherwise he will get back these few The county also fell behind in the confrontation with Lu Lin."
Zhuge Liang is still very confident about this.
But now he is not happy at all.
Cao Cao just doesn't fight Liu Bei now, but it doesn't mean he won't fight forever. Their capital has been wasted, and it will take three to five years to return to the top combat strength of 50,000 people.
Three to five years, how many times in life do you have to deal with in three to five years?
"My lord, General Guan is here." While the two were talking, Huo Jun walked in and reported.
The two looked at each other and sighed.
At Liu Bei's signal, Huo Jun called all the civil and military personnel in the city over to prepare to deal with Guan Yu in public.
Today, Guan Yu is no longer as arrogant as in Changsha City. He is as obedient as a little daughter-in-law. As soon as he came in, he knelt on the ground, closed his eyes and cupped his hands and said: "Brother, military advisor, I am here to apologize. Please punish me for the crime of defeating the army."
"General Guan is here."
Zhuge Liang glanced at Liu Bei, and then asked with a surprised look on his face: "But my tips didn't work, causing the general's defeat?"
Hearing this, Guan Yu's heart sank and he sighed: "The military advisor knows things like a god, and I am entirely to blame for this defeat."
"Oh, it turns out that General Guan is so happy about his success."
Zhuge Liang suddenly raised his eyes and said sonorously: "Did you know that because of your own loss, our army did not dare to take Jiangling City, which was lying in front of Cao Jun after a bloody battle! Do you know that without Jiangling, the four counties under the Lord's rule would be lost at any time?" Might it become a piece of meat in Cao Cao's mouth?
Do you know that without Jiangling City our army would never be able to enter Sichuan?
One general is incompetent and the three armies are exhausted. General Guan is arrogant in the world. He never thought about today's defeat! "
This may sound like a slap in the face, but in reality it is Zhuge Liang who is heartbroken.
What a great situation, how much time I spent on setting up this situation, how many unknowns I calculated, and when I was about to reap the rewards, and my great cause was about to prosper step by step, but because of Guan Yu alone, my success failed.
I don’t know whether Liu Bei was annoyed or not, but Zhuge Liang was really angry.
These questions made Guan Yu's already broken heart fall into an endless abyss.
Yes, even if people like Yan Liangwen Chou can't deal with it, Hao Zhao is no one. He can block Jiangdong's siege and then block himself.
He once thought that Anfeng City could not be conquered only because the Jiangdong rats were too incompetent. He thought that he would be in trouble if he went there.
He was so proud, but this time, whether it was Yan Liang, Wen Chou or Hao Zhao, he trampled his pride and pride to the ground.
When he thought about the fact that his elder brother, who had been wandering around for half his life, had lost the Jiangling City due to his own fault, Guan Yu couldn't help but shed tears of regret, and choked up and said: "Please ask the military advisor to deal with it according to military law."
"Guan Yu disobeyed military orders and advanced rashly, so that my 20,000-strong army was defeated in Anfeng and lost 17,000 men. He was dragged down and beheaded in public display!"
Next it’s time for Liu Guan and Zhang Biao to play.
Zhang Fei was the first to jump out and asked Zhuge Liang, "Don't you know that the three sworn brothers in Taoyuan are sworn to live and die together? If you want to kill him, Guan Yu, you will kill me, Zhang Fei. You, Zhuge Liang, must be killed before you die."
Listen to what others say.
Some people play the red face, and some people play the bad side.
Then Liu Bei also jumped out and scolded Zhang Fei for being rude. All the military and political power in the council hall rested with the military advisor. Anyone who dared to touch him would touch himself.
After singing this paragraph, he added that Zhang Fei was right. The Taoyuan Three were sworn brothers, and they were one in life and death. Since Guan Yu's crime was punishable by death, the eldest brother took the first step. As he said that, he pulled out the sword from his waist and wanted to kill himself.
How could Zhang Fei and Guan Yu agree? They would inevitably have to practice Tai Chi.
Coupled with the performance of three people crying and crying, it can be regarded as a painful drama.
So Zhuge Liang got off the donkey, thinking that at this time of employing people, he would be allowed to perform meritorious service, and he would be pulled down and beaten with forty army sticks.
This play seems very disgusting, but it has to be sung.
Guan Yu not only ruined Zhuge Liang's deployment plan, he only needed to explain to Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang. He also had to explain to the soldiers and people of Jingzhou, Liu Qi, and the surviving soldiers in the army.
It is no exaggeration to say that it is a heinous crime.
If this is wiped out, no one in the Jingzhou Army will trust Liu Bei anymore, and even people from the Jingzhou faction such as Huang Zhong, Wei Yan, and Huo Jun will directly break away from Liu Bei.
But acting is acting after all, and Zhuge Liang is afraid that his scar will heal and he will forget the pain. If possible, he really wants to point at Guan Yu's nose and say, "If Yan Liang, Wen Chou is really the one who got the job done, then you are better than them." No countertop allowed.”
In fact, these forty military sticks were not defeated in the end.
Because Cao Cao will not invade, this is ultimately speculation. Things are unpredictable, and we must prepare for the worst. Guan Yu is transferred here just in case.
Liu Bei said that he would wait until Cao Cao really retreated and Wuling was safe before he would march, but everyone knew that he was deceiving.
As for Wei Yan, as the deputy general, he did his best, but because of Guan Yu's burden, he had to carry twenty army sticks, which was a complete disaster.
He vomited inwardly, cursing that we are really stepmothers.
The defeat of Anfeng was over in this way. There must be voices of dissatisfaction. Liu Bei could only slowly repair it in the future.
Just after entering Nanjun and before arriving at Jiangling, Cao Cao received a letter from Liu Bei.
The content is also simple. He said that he was entrusted by Liu Qi and had no choice but to send troops to take back Lingling and Wuling. As for Xia Houyuan, he also entertained him. As long as Cao Cao returned the army to Xiangyang, he would immediately release Xia Houyuan.
"Hahaha, the big-eared thief is scared. Sikong, I will definitely have 10,000 soldiers and horses, and I will definitely cut off the big-eared thief's head!" Xu Chu asked for orders excitedly, his eyes were like those of a hunter who has seen his prey. .
"I'll go too!" Dian Wei was not willing to be left behind.
Cao Cao didn't want to pay attention to the two of them at all. Jiangling City was still in his hands. Based on this alone, it was impossible for him to launch troops against Liu Bei. In the final analysis, Lu Lin was his biggest opponent.
"Take a day off and return to Xiangyang. Everyone else should retreat, Fengxiao."
As soon as he was in a good mood, Cao Cao would easily think of the past. Seeing that someone else was already standing where the man was standing before, it felt like there was an empty space in his heart no matter how much you filled it, it would be useless.
He showed a wry smile and said, "Xiao Nao stays."
"Here."
When there were only two people left in the military tent, Cao Cao squinted his eyes and said solemnly: "Xiaozhi, during this time, I have thought about it seriously. Xuzhou is the most important town in the Central Plains, but it is too far for me. It’s a little further away.”
Fazheng, who didn't know much about Cao Cao's personality, could only guess his intentions based on these words. He was not sure whether Cao Cao was talking about the long distance or the helplessness he felt toward Xuzhou.
After thinking for a moment, he said: "Sikong, now that the Northern Kingdom's military strength is scattered, this is a good opportunity that cannot be missed. If Sikong is unwilling to go to Xuzhou, there is another place that can be taken."
As he said that, he stepped forward and pointed to the location of Sizhou on the parchment map, "Lü Bu led his army to quell banditry everywhere, and wanted to restore the prosperity of the capital in the past. The most important thing is that Lu Bu was brave but not wise, and Lin Mo was not by his side. Victory was Hopefully.”
After saying that, he slid his halberd finger down Sizhou, "Here, we can break the danger of Tongguan."
Fazheng raised his eyes and looked at Cao Cao, and found that he was staring at the map intently. He knew that he had listened to his suggestion, and continued: "Of course, there are also disadvantages. The troops he led were the most elite troops in the Northern Kingdom, and they were defeated ten times. After the men and horses, I also attracted many brave knights from Xiliang. Although they are unintelligent, they are extremely brave."
Whether it is to attack Sizhou or Xuzhou, the key points and advantages are clearly stated. As for how to choose, it depends on Cao Cao himself.
Anyway, as a counselor, he has done his best.
When he looked up again, he realized that Cao Cao was staring at him intently, which made him feel a little uncomfortable, "Sikong?"
Cao Cao smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's good. If Fengxiao is still alive, he will definitely become your best friend."
"Sikong Yan is too serious."
Cao Cao wiped his finger on the middle of the person and regained his seriousness, "If it were you, what would you choose?"
"Xuzhou!" Fazheng said firmly.
Cao Cao nodded, "Go down and let Gongda come in."
"Here."
Not long after, Xun You came in.
Still the same question, where to hit.
Xun You's answer was, "Jizhou, if you attack Xuzhou, you must be fast enough, otherwise Xuchang will bear pressure from both directions of Liyang and Hanoi, and the soldiers and horses left behind may not be able to withstand it."
Cao Cao still nodded, without further details, and then waved his hand, "Go down first."
He actually has a lot of thoughts now, and they are quite messy.
The most reliable route must be chosen.
He had been thinking about this issue since Yizhou, and it seemed that there was no perfect choice.
Or maybe it's because Guo Jia is away and no one can make him strengthen his belief.
I don't know how long it took, but he slowly exhaled a breath and murmured: "Chen Dao plus Wu Yi should be enough."
Thanks to Brother Elemental’s alliance leader reward, I actually gained two alliance leaders in two days. I was so excited that I couldn’t sleep.
Thank you, thank you.
