Three Kingdoms, I open a tavern in Xudu

After Chen Yang burned those barracks, he didn't do anything else. When he got the news that Guan Yu had started to attack Wang Ji's main camp, he took people back to Runan without stopping.

After several days, Chen Yang and the others finally appeared outside the city of Runan. Guo Jia and others went out to greet him when they heard that he was coming. Guan Yu and the others also withdrew their troops and came back, standing outside the city gate.

Chen Yang didn't greet them outside the city gate, but went directly into the city and told them that his arrival had to be kept secret, so that Wang Ji's spies wouldn't know.

"As long as Wang Ji feels that I am still in Luoyang, then the next thing will be beneficial to us. There are more things that can be done in the dark than in the open."

Chen Yang explained briefly.

Guo Jia and Jia Xu knew all about it, and the news of Chen Yang's return must not spread out of the barracks.

"Zian, thanks to you this time!"

Jia Xu said gratefully: "If you hadn't come, we might still be trapped in Runan."

Chen Yang and Jia Xu haven't seen each other for many years. Compared with before, he is indeed much older and has gray hair. He has been staying in the north to guide the Northern Expedition. It is not easy for him to reach his level. It is understandable to underestimate the enemy for a while.

"Wen and words are serious. The main reason is that Wang Ji is too cunning, which makes it impossible for us to guard against him. Even Yun Chang can't take him down. This person is very difficult to deal with."

Chen Yang can understand that Jia Xu is a little bit powerless now, and said with a smile: "Okay, can you let me rest for a while, after a long journey, and burning three enemy barracks in a row, I am a little tired!"

Guo Jia said: "Then we won't bother you anymore. I will have people suppress the news about your return, so that it will never get out."

Of course, Chen Yang believed in their abilities. Wang Ji was temporarily repelled, and there was no need to worry about someone coming to attack the city outside the city. Everyone in Runan breathed a sigh of relief.

They immediately arranged a place for Chen Yang, and as soon as they entered, they lay down on the couch exhausted.

"Husband, when shall we continue to go north?"

Ya Ruo seemed to be impatient to ask.

"You can go north tomorrow. If I guess correctly, Wang Ji will definitely retreat near Xudu and other places. I probably think of a way to defeat Wang Ji."

Chen Yang said confidently.

"My husband must have some kind of conspiracy." Tara laughed.

"Am I a conspiracy? This is called a strategy, and it can also be called the art of war!"

Chen Yang squeezed Tara's pretty face, and continued: "I still remember everything about you, don't worry, Sima Yi will definitely not escape."

Tara laughed and said, "Our husband, when did you let us down? Never!"

Ya Ruo sat in front of Chen Yang and lowered her head slightly.

"Husband, do you want to rest with us?"

Hong Fu gently pushed Ya Ruo into Chen Yang's arms, and then laughed wickedly.

"In the army, it's not very convenient, so it's up to you to play tricks."

Chen Yang held Yaruo in his arms, and tapped Hongfu's forehead again.

The red clam happily leaned over, as long as she could rely on her husband, everything was enough for her, even worth it.

Rest for one night, and soon the next day will come.

Chen Yang went to find Guo Jia and Jia Xu, and said that he was going to go north immediately to deal with Wang Ji in one go, without giving him a chance to react.

But this time when he went north, Chen Yang proposed to use Guo Jia as the main general and use him to hide the fact that he left Luoyang. Guo Jia definitely agreed and kept Jia Xu in Runan.

After determining the follow-up strategy, the army set off immediately, and after more than a day, it arrived in the south of Xudu, where the Jin army camp could be seen from a distance.

Knowing that Wei Jun was coming again, Wang Ji immediately sent someone out to inquire, but he didn't dare to act rashly. After all, what happened a few days ago reminded him that he must not be too complacent or proud, arrogant soldier This is the reason why you must lose.

"The main general of Wei Jun is Guo Jia, they came really fast!"

Wang Ji murmured to himself: "Guo Jia is known to be a great talent. I should have underestimated him before. The strategy to divert the tiger away from the mountain was probably thought up by him. He is a strong enemy."

Xiao Cheng worried: "Isn't he just like Chen Yang, difficult to deal with?"

"That's not necessarily the case!"

Wang Ji said confidently: "Even if Chen Yang came, I would not necessarily be afraid. I may not be as good as Chen Yang in terms of strategy, but I think Chen Yang is far inferior to me in terms of dispatching troops and how to fight. But he can With today's reputation, it is not because other people deliberately exalt it, so it is still necessary to be careful."

Xiao Cheng said with a smile: "No matter how powerful he is, he was delayed in Luoyang by His Majesty."

Wang Ji just smiled lightly and didn't say anything else.

Inside the Wei camp.

Chen Yang led the army to garrison. He did not attack the Jin army's camp immediately. He let Guo Jia do a good job of defense first, rested for another night, and went northwest of Xudu.

He didn't take anyone else with him, only Ya Ruo and the others followed, plus Wang Yue as a protection.

They first came to a nearby high slope, looked down, and the devastated Xudu appeared in front of them.

"That's where my husband once started?"

The red clam looked at it and said with some emotion: "Now it is burned like this."

Even after so many years, the traces of the fire can still be clearly seen.

"It's here, but it's not important anymore. It will be taken back by me in the end, and His Majesty will try to rebuild it."

Chen Yang nodded and said.

"It can be seen that this city was very good before." Tara said regretfully.

"Let's go, I'll take you to another place."

Chen Yang waved his hand and continued to go northwest, and soon a concrete dam appeared in front of him. It has not been operated and managed by anyone for a long time, but the water storage capacity of the dam is still there.

This place is the reservoir built by Chen Deng. Following the fall of Xu Du, Chen Deng and the others all withdrew, so there was no one else to manage it, and weeds grew everywhere.

However, there are traces of human activities around the reservoir, because the farmers nearby know the benefits of the dam. When there is no water to irrigate the crops in drought, they will come here to open the dam to release water. When the water is almost used, they will close the valve. Cherish the water here very much.

"There is actually a big pool here!"

The red clam said in surprise, "It's so big!"

"This is called a reservoir, and it's what my husband left behind."

Knowing this place, Ya Ruo explained: "The reservoir is very useful for irrigation, and my husband asked people to build it, and it cost a lot of money."

"It's okay, I'm going to use the water reservoir to destroy Wang Ji's barracks."

Chen Yang saw that the reservoir was full of water, and said confidently.
