Three Kingdoms: Cao Ying's mastermind, from nine to five

Chapter 287 Xu Zhen is not a god, he is also a human being! !
Before the gate of Xinye City.

Cao Ren led the army outside, so there was really no need to check too much, as he could basically see no one at this glance.

There was dead silence inside and outside the city, and there were many rags flying in the dust, it was really an empty city.

"Unfortunately, it's just cloudy now, and it's not yet the time for heavy rain," Cao Ren sighed, with a slightly regretful expression, "But I still don't believe it, it's too unbelievable, can Xu Bowen really kill Liu Bei? "

"Even he knows exactly how to use tricks?"

"Hmph, hehe..." Cao Ren sneered, "I don't believe it, I don't believe it...it must be that Xu Zhen and Nei Tan are by Liu Bei's side."

"Otherwise, can the news be so clear? But such a big plan must only be known to very few people before it is arranged."

"Then who else is this insider? It can't be Guan and Zhang, right?"

Xu Huang smiled with squinted eyes at his side, he was happy and leisurely, and he had no worries about a fierce battle. This Xinye was too easy to collect, and he only needed to wait for the rainy day to enter.

"It's cloudy, and it should definitely rain heavily today."

"The prime minister is also powerful, and the prime minister can also think of fire oil and fodder."

"Did the lord reply?!"

"As stated in the letter, Che Qi had a thorough insight into Liu Bei's strategy, and he could see what he was going to do at a glance..."

"My lord, please forgive me!"

……

that night.

"No, they didn't enter the city until the heavy rain last night."

Although Xu Huang and Yu Jin are not proficient in internal affairs, they have been good at farming and developing, resettling the people, leading the army and working with the people, so they naturally understand what is needed to occupy the hearts of the people in a place.

But Bo Wen didn't intend to chase at all, and suggested that Cao Ren enter the city slowly, and use the heavy rain to extinguish the fire, so as to extinguish the burning flames conveniently.

"It rained heavily last night. It is impossible to ignite the flame with fire arrows alone, and even if it is ignited desperately, it will be extinguished soon, and it will not be effective."

This time, he was also enthusiastic about burning Xinye to ambush Cao Jun in order to defeat Cao Jun, but he was still seen through and everything was seen through.

It is also a great blow to the lieutenant generals...

Guo Jia put the letter back on the copybook in front of Cao Cao, and thought for a while with his hands behind his back, and shook his head after a moment of contemplation.

Outside Xinye City.

"Will this plan work? Has Cao Ren been burned? How much will it cost to kill the sergeant?!"

Even the military advisers in the army at the beginning were spies arranged by Xu Bowen in the army.

How dare you stay!

No wonder Xu Zhen was not around, yet he was able to know so much inexplicably, avoiding ambushes perfectly, and was not affected by the tricks at all.

"well……"

For a while, the crowd was excited, these sergeants were mobilized again by Liu Bei's few words, and followed closely behind to lead the troops away, not daring to slack in the slightest, because the Cao family had won Xinye, and they would definitely chase after them.

This is one of its benefits.

At this moment, Liu Bei, who has led the army for many years, suddenly realized this problem.

"what?"

As long as the fire ignites, the entire city can be burned. Anyway, the 20 people have already followed, using the people as a shield, and appealing to benevolence and righteousness cannot be pursued.

Jian Yong was the first to agree, "At the beginning, when my lord told Shan Fu about this plan, I was there!"

It took overnight to keep up with the migrating 20 people. Soon after, they saw the army formation and were able to catch up with Liu Bei.

at this time.

And the land of Jingzhou is the real priority.

"Lord!"

With the heavy rain falling, Cao Ren entered the city slowly.

"Well, that's true. First stabilize Jingzhou, and then gradually advance. Since Liu Bei fled to the border and is close to the Jiangdong area, there is no need to worry about its growth."

"Shut up!"

It took Liu Bei many years of governance before he could gain enough support from the people. The more than 20 people he brought with him would pose a great threat to Liu Qi, and if he fled to Jiangdong again in the future, Sun Ce would never allow him.

This strategy is really good!

So Liu Bei's situation is not good at this time, let them fight first.

……

"Our strategy has been seen through."

Cao Cao laughed happily.

Then take this opportunity to burn the city. Anyway, these people have already abandoned the city and left. The biggest function of this city is to ignite the fire and hinder the pursuers.

"That's right, let the lord be happy too. After all, it's a leisurely situation now. There's no need to chase Liu Bei anymore. We won't be able to catch up with us."

Cao Cao was having lunch, eating meat pies sent by the Northwest, and seeing the battle report sent by Yu Jin, he couldn't help laughing.

……

"It's all my fault! I shouldn't trust others! I shouldn't be so thirsty for talent, without knowing the origin of their character! It's me who hurt you, but you have to remember!"

It looks like heavy rain is coming.

Even after getting off the horse, he was also downcast, and there seemed to be some faint fear.

At this moment, Guo Jia immediately looked up at him, and said with a rather surprised expression: "Besides, I didn't know it after thinking about it, but the battalion patrol immediately understood the inside story."

"Besides, I remember the prime minister said... to catch Liu Bei at all costs and tear him into pieces, as a warning to others..."

"The forage we buried in the city was all wet, and the fire oil was also washed away. It was difficult to make a plan. In order to prevent Cao Jun from chasing and killing us, we had no choice but to evacuate. Please forgive me, my lord!"

In the end, just like Yuan's, when he heard about Xu Zhen's armored cavalry, crossbow cavalry, and sword and shield cavalry, he would be invincible, and the army's morale was lax, and he dared not fight.

However, before the arrival, the morale of hundreds of riders was very low, and everyone had an ugly expression on their faces, as if they were mourning.

Among Liu Jun, who else can he trust?
The Second General and the Third General are sworn brothers, so they can't also have a secret connection with Xu Bowen, right? !

"Ha ha!"

Liu Bei remained silent for a long time with a straight face, and then quickly helped one person up, and said solemnly: "I don't blame you, there is no need to worry."

Cao Ren glanced back, Yu Jin nodded slowly and said: "I have already replied. Now that I have arrived in Anding County, the army is nearby, and I should have received the current situation of the battle. According to the general's order, the bet between you and Cheqi will be completed." , also clearly stated."

They are still waiting for the rain. As for whether the calculation by the car and rider is accurate, they only need to go in and have a look.

"I didn't intend to chase after him, what is Liu Bei? It doesn't make me lose my mind, hehehe..."

Cao Cao watched him go, and when he looked back, he and Cheng Yu accidentally looked at each other, both of them were a little embarrassed, Cheng Yu was stunned, and said with a sneer: "Indeed, it's unbelievable."

Cheng Yu's eyes froze slightly, his brows were tightly frowned, as if he still didn't understand, he seemed a little confused for a while, and murmured: "However, even if we spread the fodder and put the fire oil tanks in it, we will shoot them with fire arrows after our army enters the city." The fine arrangement can be calculated accurately, and it is too mysterious."

"This is a strategy leaked by the military adviser," Liu Bei glanced at the crowd, and now that there were many soldiers and horses in front of him, he immediately shouted loudly, "This time it is my fault!"

"Not bad!"

One of the cavalrymen was also desperate and panicked when he saw several pairs of eager eyes staring at them. Although the three generals were not here, if he heard about it in the future, he would really beat and scold the sergeant.

It turned out that it was leaked.

After Cao Cao finished eating the cake, he sat down leisurely and looked around with a smile, "I have been marching and fighting for many years, and I naturally understand the thoughts of these wartime generals. I am in Xudu, and seeing the military situation, I can also judge Liu Bei's intentions. Attack with fire."

If you don't speak, no one will treat you as dumb, so go out, okay? ?
Cao Cao leaned back sharply, "Am I that kind of person? Huh?! Knowing that there are traps in the chase, but still acting rashly and ignoring the overall situation? This is not the time to be proud of victory."

"It didn't work."

Raising his hand, he handed the letter to Guo Jia, and said with a smile: "Feng Xiao took a look at it, and Yu Jin sent this letter, saying that Bo Wen was betting with Zi Xiao again, which is a bit fun."

"Tsk, I don't know how powerful he is? Do you want to praise him?"

The heavy rain poured down, and outside the entire city, the soil on the ground quickly turned into a puddle. Not to mention the kerosene was washed away in the city, all the fodder was soaked, and the light cavalry lying in ambush immediately understood that if the rain continued for several days , then there is really no way.

"Let's not be chaotic. Let's protect the people and go to Jiangxia. My lord is so benevolent and sincere. I must have been deceived by Xu Zhen before."

Who is Cao Ren's military adviser?Could it be that after Xu Bowen arrived in person, he had an insight into this plan?No matter who did it, Xu Zhen saw through the ambushes in Baihe, Yinshan, Funiushan and other places, as well as the fire on Bowangpo.

"In the city, there is fire oil and fodder to burn the army entering the city, so they will enter the city again on rainy days..."

Liu Bei's expression became angry, and he took a deep breath and shouted: "Xu Zhen, it's not as scary as you imagined! He's not a god! He's just a talented person, he's just good at planting traitors and spies!"

When they inquired about Cao Jun's move at this time, they immediately realized that the strategy must have been seen through again, so they had to withdraw.

"It's not your fault. At the beginning, I treated the sages sincerely, and with the heart of a national scholar, I had no reservations about that military adviser Shan Fu. I said this plan, but I didn't expect him to remember this in his heart and told Xu Zhen. Only then will he find out."

But at this time, they had never even fought against Xu Zhen once before, and they had reached such a point, how terrifying.

The soldiers around looked at each other in blank dismay.

"Stop talking, go to Jiangxia first!!!"

"This person is despicable and shameless, flattering and offering tricks! If the trick is seen through, then it will be seen through! We should protect the people and go at this moment. Xu Zhen's traitor is full of tricks, so don't procrastinate halfway!"

A few days later, it was considered to be a rainy day. Presumably those archers buried outside the city by Liu Bei had already run out of patience.

[Completion: 100%]

Anding County.

This matter is no longer a secret in the military.

【Received from Namyang County】

Cao Ren laughed, and took another look at the sky quite meaninglessly. It was going to rain soon, and his mood suddenly improved. He was already itching to wait for the rain these days. If he didn't enter the city again, the soldiers would start Doubt it.

Cheng Yu muttered a few words, bowed his head resentfully, took a few steps back, and returned to his seat, but it was obvious from his expression that he was still thinking.

However, Cao Cao at the moment didn't believe it. He could really guess so accurately. It was pure nonsense. This kid must have only known some inside information, and his own judgment knew that Liu Bei might lay an ambush.

If this is the case, then this person is really terrible.

Make sure the city is taken down, just enter the city in rainy days.

When Liu Bei saw these cavalry returning, he immediately reined in the reins, got off his horse and came to meet him. He asked expectantly, "How is it? You can burn the city!?"

Guo Jia's cold face broke the ice and pursed his lips slightly, showing a little smile. After reading the letter, the smile on his face disappeared immediately.

As for the so-called kerosene and fodder, he must have made it up by himself, and told Cao Ren that he could scare him. As for going to the city, he could enter it safely.

"Definitely not invincible!"

It was all leaked by the military adviser. At the beginning, Shan Fu seemed like a loyal person, but he didn't expect to steal so much information in order to win the trust of the lord.

His face was a little dignified.

At this moment, Guo Jiadeling immediately turned around and left, like the wind passing by without stopping, turned out the door at an extremely fast speed, and disappeared from sight after a while.

"Xu Zhen is a traitor who makes good use of civil strife."

In the future, what will not be seen through by the opponent's military division?

"What's so strange about that?"

All the hundred green cavalrymen knelt on one knee, cupped their fists and saluted.

"came back!?"

"Only by using fire can we form a natural barrier to stop our army from going, and not to pursue is the best response to Liu Bei."

"But the good thing is! There will be no more leaks after that, we will definitely beat Xu Zhen and Cao Cao! If you don't believe me, go to Jiangxia to resettle, and we will see you in the future!"

But how can this morale be boosted? !
If he didn't say anything, Liu Bei even worried that these people would all turn against Xu Zhen in the future, and the hearts of the soldiers in the army would gradually dare not fight against Xu Jun.

"Well, then give a military order to urge Zixiao to let him march. I already know the hidden dangers. It is not shameful to bet against Bowen. Go to the city and have a look to see if countless kerosene has been buried. And the forage, our army is also going out, get ready to go to Xinye."

"Once Xinye is on fire, we can march easily, don't be so anxious!"

At this time, Liu Bei noticed that these people were very depressed, as if they had lost hope of life.

"Here!"

"This is incredible."

Liu Bei was startled, and fell backwards, almost lost his footing and swayed to the ground. He stepped back to support himself, and said, "Did Cao Ren not enter the city when the fire started?"

Guo Jia pondered for a moment, and when Cheng Yu heard this argument, he was also taken aback, "Cheqi can see this?"

If you count Xu Shu, the military advisor back then, it should be four times!
Within a few months, Xu Bowen saw through four strategies in a row, and never took advantage of them. These were not only his resentment, but also his depression and discomfort.

This should be despair.

Xu Zhen was sleeping on a recliner in the barracks when she suddenly heard a system notification.

After all, Liu Bei has already made several strategies in a row, and Xu Zhen has seen through them. Every time he makes a layout, it is either useless or countered by others, resulting in heavy losses.

"Look at the weather, I'm afraid it's going to rain in Fancheng."

After finishing this sentence, Cao Cao made a quick turn and brought the topic directly to the sky. The two of them were really taken away. They looked up at the sky in the distance. It was gray, as if the sky had lowered a bit.

three times.

If it was him, he might have realized at first glance that there were ambushes waiting in the city, but how could he have thought that it was fire oil and fodder, and he needed to use fire attack to block the enemy.

[Distribute rewards! 】

"Oh? Here we come!"

Xu Zhen suddenly opened his eyes, full of interest.

Comfortable, Nanyang accepted it, ready to draw a lottery, and then you can collect more rewards in Jingzhou, and then return to the north after scanning.
