Three Kingdoms: From Yinlin to Great Wei Xiongzhu

Chapter 18 First I realized, then I fell in love
Now in Cao Cao's view, Yanzhou has more than 3000 officers and soldiers, including the more than [-] Qiaopei Army that Xia Houyuan rushed to help.

And the moth thieves are very powerful, with a total of 30 people.

Seven thousand against 30?Can the world be turned around with just nineteen characters?
Cao Cao quickly unfolded the bamboo slip. There were only a dozen or so characters in the huge bamboo slip...

Glancing over, the first three words came into Cao Cao's eyes - guerrilla warfare!

Hiss...guerrilla warfare?

As the name suggests, the core point lies in the word "you" and the word "strike". These two words are not difficult to understand, but... just based on this, it seems that fighting against 30 moth thieves is not so meaningful.

and many more…

Cao Cao suddenly thought of something, "Could it be..."

The words are only the beginning... Immediately, he has a huge interest in the next content of this bamboo slip!

The eyes narrowed slightly, and the eyes full of ray of light continued to look down along the bamboo slip...

Where the eyes meet, there are a total of sixteen words...

——The enemy advances and I retreat, and the enemy retreats and I chase!

——When the enemy is stationed, I will disturb, and when the enemy is tired, I will fight!

Seeing this, Cao Cao's spirit was lifted, and for a moment, he realized something!
For a moment, he loved, loved!

"Ha ha…"

"Ha ha ha ha…"

For a time, Cao Cao, who suddenly realized, laughed out loud, as if he had forgotten that Bao Xin's coffin was next to him. The hidden method of breaking the enemy here!

When the enemy advances, we retreat, when the enemy retreats, we chase, when the enemy is stationed, we interfere, and when the enemy is tired, we fight. This is a "guerrilla war."

Wrong, wrong, his previous strategies and tactics when Cao Cao and Bao Xin faced moth thieves were all wrong.

Entered Yanzhou and became the shepherd of a state. The so-called new officials took office as three fires. Cao Cao was too eager for quick success and quick success!
From the beginning to the end, Cao Cao always planned how to win with one blow and completely wipe out 30 moth thieves, and establish prestige in Yanzhou.

This is not wrong, but...the military strength and combat effectiveness are dwarfed and stretched...and made him pay a heavy price.

The number of moth thieves is dozens of times that of officers and soldiers, and their combat effectiveness is even higher than that of officers and soldiers. Even if they fall into an ambush, even if they are alone, even if they are in the most unfavorable situation, their hard power is still higher than that of the officers and soldiers...

Trying to kill with one blow, trying to defeat the enemy with one move, this is all wishful thinking and a piece of empty talk!
Good guerrilla war...

It is only nineteen characters, which has already made Cao Cao realize the first level... Of course, the nineteen-character mantra proposed by Lu Yu has only one meaning?
"The enemy advances and I retreat!"

"The enemy retreats and I chase... huh..."

Cao Cao let out a long sigh, and immediately, he closed his eyes and meditated, carefully trying to figure out these eight characters.

After a full quarter of an hour, Cao Cao seemed to have figured out a layer!
The words "the enemy is stationed at me, and the enemy is tired, I will fight" were uttered again in his mouth... After another half-quarter of an hour of contemplation, Cao Cao suddenly stood up, clenched his fists and slammed it on the desk... It seemed that only in this way could he express his current situation. That rush of excitement.

"Boom..."

The fist collided with the desk and made a violent sound, and at the same time, "Okay, okay, okay!" With three good words in a row, Cao Cao's whole person was excited to the top!
"Retreat 30 moth thieves, one advance and one retreat, one retreat and one chase, one station and one disturbance, one exhaustion and one attack, good strategy, good strategy!"

Enlightened... Completely enlightened, Cao Cao couldn't help but be amazed.

Speaking of which, Cao Cao was extremely smart, and he read military books intensively, and gave him some advice... In fact, he didn't need to be cumbersome at all, just a little bit of advice and guidance was enough for him to suddenly understand.

At this moment, what Cao Cao is weighing in his heart is the pros and cons of the enemy and me, and the feasibility of guerrilla warfare. He even simulated the entire guerrilla war with moth thieves in his mind.

Most of the moth thieves are from Qingzhou, and they are not familiar with Yanzhou. They can play the advantage of "the enemy advances and I retreat!" in terms of terrain;

The moth thief has more infantry and less cavalry, and the three thousand Qiaopei regiments are all cavalry, and the speed of running with four hooves is much faster than that of two legs... Therefore, "advance and retreat, I chase" is very promising;
Most of the moth thieves lead their families, and more than half of the 30 moth thieves are old and young women and children. Therefore, the strategy of "the enemy is stationed and we are harassing" infinitely magnifies the weakness of the moth thieves' too many old, young, women and children, making those strong men care about one thing and lose another , Mental imbalance;
In addition, although the moth thief is strong in combat, its organization can be disorganized, and it may be able to stabilize its position in a downwind situation, but once it is tired, once its mentality is unbalanced, its unfavorable organization and its flawed weaknesses will begin to be exposed. The last four words in the six-character strategy - "the enemy is tired, I will fight", at that time, can you directly give him a fatal blow?
In addition, there is the most, the most, the most important point. Cao Cao now has few soldiers, few generals, and few money... In the face of the mighty Yellow Turban thieves, guerrilla warfare is simply the most suitable tactic.

call…

A long exhale.

Even with the three words "guerrilla warfare", a total of nineteen characters, Cao Cao stared at the time of a stick of incense.

At the end, on a whim, Cao Cao specially picked up the brush and added two words before the words "Guerrilla Warfare" - "Trial Lun"... This bamboo slip was directly renamed - "Trial Lun·Guerrilla Warfare"!
It is no exaggeration to say that in Cao Cao's opinion, this bamboo slip with only [-] characters is enough to compare to the most incisive military book!
"Brother Wen Ruo, I remember, you mentioned it just now... This bamboo slip was written by you, but who was the narrator?" Cao Cao's attention was all on the bamboo slip, but he forgot the narrator that Xun Yu mentioned before. why.

According to Cao Cao...

The sixteen-character mantra in "Tentative Discussion: Guerrilla Warfare" is already incisive enough. Then, how terrifying and outstanding is the military ability of a person who can create this method of warfare?

Taking a step back, isn't this the outstanding military and strategic talent that Cao Cao has been searching for, thinking about day and night, and can't get it?
Xun Yu didn't hide anything, and immediately replied: "Mr. Cao, the person who dictated the sixteen-character mantra is a heavenly genius. He is only 15 years old, but he has read thousands of volumes and is familiar with the art of war. Speaking of his sister, Cao Cao You should be no stranger to him, she is Miss Caiyan, the eldest daughter of Mr. Cai, Mr. Cao’s mentor!"

Huh... Zhao Ji's younger brother? 15-year-old Tianzong boy?

Cao Cao raised his brows: "Zi Xiao also told me this morning that a 15-year-old Tianzong wizard was found in Qiaopei's barracks. Could it be the same person as Wen Ruo mentioned? I remember his surname is Lu, and his single name is a character of feather." !"

"It's him." Xun Yu replied without hesitation.

Hearing this, Cao Cao sucked in a breath of cold air. If the words did not come from Xun Yu and Cao Ren at the same time, Cao Cao would not believe it.

Can a boy...a 15-year-old boy write such incisive words with such insight into the current situation?
From Cao Cao's point of view, even if it is not a half-hundred-year-old seeker who can write such works as "Trial Discussion: Guerrilla Warfare", he must be a "great man", right?

For a moment, Cao Cao subconsciously thought of "Yin Lin". After doing some calculations, it seems that Yin Lin is also 15 years old this year.

But... it was just that moment, Cao Cao shook his head immediately.

Who is Yin Lin?That is his benefactor of Cao Cao, and the benefactor of Qiaopei's warriors. If he comes to Yanzhou, Cao Cao will definitely treat him as a guest of honor, with extra courtesy!Why so much trouble and suffering in the barracks?
It's not Yin Lin, logically, it doesn't make sense.

However, is Yin Lin important?Not important at all!

Under the order of seeking talents, Xun Yu and Xun You came, and the 15-year-old Tianzong genius with a strategy to defeat the enemy also came. It seems... everything is developing in a good direction.

For a moment, Cao Cao felt that this Yanzhou shepherd... suddenly felt comfortable!
Hahaha…

Hahaha…

Laughing continuously, Cao Cao waved his long sleeves, and finally stared meaningfully at the corpse of his good brother Bao Xin in the coffin.

Immediately, he instructed in a loud voice, "Let Lu Yu come to the Ya... No, hurry up and prepare the carriage. I will go to the Wei residence in person to see this genius!"

Cao Cao is thirsty for talents, and in the face of talents, how could he make such a low-level mistake?

Such geniuses come to visit... This is the most basic and most basic attitude in the process of seeking talents!

...

...

Ps: I see that the guerrilla warfare is quite controversial in the comments, the author Jun really didn't scribble...

In history, Cao Cao really won the Yanzhou Yellow Turban Army in this way, which can be proved from the Three Kingdoms.

Think about it, there are more than 30 people in the Yellow Turban Army, and they have fought for so many years, and their fighting power is strong. Lao Cao has only a few thousand people, and they are all recruits... It is also helpless for him to decide on this guerrilla style of play.
