Three Kingdoms: The Guan Family's Rebellious Son, Long Blessing Jing Xiang

Chapter 406 Soldiers are deceitful, attacking them unprepared, taking them by surprise
The joint camp Dazhai was occupied by the Wei army.

At ten o'clock at noon, the Chinese army's big tent.

Zhang Liaowen was sitting in the commander's seat. He was still flipping through the book Sun Tzu's Art of War left by Guan Yu, and now he was turning to the "Fictity and Truth" in it.

He chanted from time to time:

"Go beyond what you don't want to go, go to what you don't want. Those who travel thousands of miles without working hard will walk in a land where no one is there;"

"Those who attack and must take, attack what they do not defend; those who defend but must be firm, defend what they do not attack."

The concept of "virtual and real" in "Sun Tzu's Art of War" often refers to defeating the enemy on the battlefield through tactical changes of scattered and concentrated forces to create a situation where we are strong and the enemy is weak.

Of course, Zhang Liao has long been familiar with these theories.

On the contrary, books like "Sun Tzu's Art of War" can always "learn something new" every time you "review the past", Zhang Liao reads it very seriously.

He ponders and meditates from time to time, as if... he is comprehending the deeper principles contained in it.

only…

Zhang Liao's side is calm and composed, while the lieutenants in the military tent are already a little bit impatient.

Niu Gai and Yin Shu are discussing.

"What's the situation? It's so weird. Guan Yu was twenty miles away from the military stronghold last night... Even if he wants to avoid long-distance marches and our army's waiting for work, then one night's rest is enough, right? Why is it already noon the next day, are you still resting? Is he still fighting? Is he in an ambush?"

"What General Niu said is very true... Obviously since last night, Guan Yu has sent several troops from the mountain one after another, and Tan Ma has repeatedly reported that these troops have come to kill us? But... What about people? Our brothers lay in ambush all night, and all morning, without daring to bat an eyelid, let alone Guan Yu, even a soldier of the Guan family army didn't see it, then...those who came out of the valley Where did the Guan family soldiers go?"

While discussing with Yin Shu, Niu Gai couldn't help patting his forehead.

This thing is weird and outrageous.

Speaking of which, since Guan Yu hid in that valley, the entire Wei army, no matter whether they were scouts or scouts, seemed to have lost all news at once, either dead or unable to sneak in.

All in all, what is Guan Yu doing in this valley?No one knows!
This feeling of black eyes is really uncomfortable.

On the other hand, Zhang Liao was still calm and relaxed, listening to the discussion of the two lieutenants without blinking his brows, his eyes were fixed on the fiction and reality in "Sun Tzu's Art of War" as usual.

He saw the next sentence——

——"The shape of a soldier is water, the shape of water, avoiding heights and going down, the shape of soldiers, avoiding the real and attacking the weak." 』

Zhang Liao was still thinking about the meaning of this sentence.

——"The law of using soldiers is like water. Water avoids high places and rushes to low places. Using soldiers avoids the enemy's solid places and attacks his weak places...It is true, it is true. 』

Zhang Liao seemed to have a new understanding.

At this moment, the lieutenant general Niu Gai seemed to have thought of something, he slapped his head heavily, and exclaimed: "Could it be that Guan Yu discovered it?"

"Impossible!" Yin Shu insisted, "The entire Wei army's ambush was deployed by General Wen Yuan himself, and all the ambush locations are extremely secretive, even if our army scouts without knowing it, they can't see it from there. See?"

"But..." Niu Gai was still puzzled, "If you say you didn't see... what does that mean? Then Guan Yu is coming or not? This ambush...is...it's terribly anxious, and...it's also suffocating."

Hearing the discussion of these two generals, Zhang Liao finally put down the "Sun Tzu's Art of War", especially with his eyes closed, he shook his head like an old pedant and sighed.

"Soldiers are impermanent, and water is impermanent. What is called emptiness is reality, and reality is emptiness!"

Speaking of this, Zhang Liao opened his eyes and explained: "I know Yun Chang, he is testing our army, whether there is an ambush here, whether there will be any clues because of his dispatch, Yun Chang is still leading the attack as always. , Be steady in a hurry! This is exactly what he always does."

Speaking of this, Zhang Liao slowly got up, looked through the window towards the ambush spot outside the tent, and at the same time looked at the mountains due west where Guan Yu was.

He put his chin in one hand, and then said: "Yun Chang has also started to play with the false and the real. This "Sun Tzu's Art of War" is not in vain, but...he is as quiet as a virgin, how can I move like a rabbit? But, it's almost there, he This temptation should also end!"

Zhang Liao's words are always filled with certainty.

at this time…

There was the sound of "treading" footsteps, and a rather burly man covered in gray strode into the large tent of the Chinese army.

With a "bang", a mountain-breaking ax was directly smashed to the ground, making a crisp "bang".

The person here is Xu Huang...

At this moment, Xu Huang was panting again and again, as if galloping on a horse, his eyes were opened, but there was a little bit of complexity and anger in his eyes.

Zhang Liao thought that Pang De had stolen Xu Huang's military exploits, so he laughed and persuaded him, "Hahaha, why is Gongming doing this? I just said that I would celebrate for you and General Pang De, but now that Huang Zhong is captured by the two generals." Kill, the two generals are about to shake the world, I must report the truth to the prime minister, the two generals are the first to share the merit..."

Zhang Liao thought his words of "a bowl of water is flat" were enough to calm Xu Huang down.

Unexpectedly, Xu Huang's complexion changed suddenly, became distraught, and became extremely melancholy...

"Alas, alas—"

With a long sigh, Xu Huang showed an appearance of nothing more than death.

Megatron world?The super-meowing Megatron of the world?
He, Xu Huang, was close to becoming the laughing stock of the world!

Yes…

Tomorrow, there is indeed someone who will shake the world, but it must not be him, Xu Huang, and it will not be the already cold Pound.

It should be an old man in his seventies, the enemy general Huang Zhong——

This…

Zhang Liao also noticed something wrong with Xu Huang's expression, and quickly asked: "Why is Gongming like this? Didn't two generals surround Huang Zhong, Guan Ping, and Guan Xing Tuantuan? It wasn't five soldiers and more than 5 people who surrounded and suppressed them." Thousands of people? Where is Huang Zhong's head? Where is General Pang De?"

"Huang Zhong, Pang Lingming...Xinye City..." Xu Huang clenched his fists suddenly, and finally, under the accumulation of emotions, he opened his mouth tragically, "Hehe, where is Huang Zhong's head? Only one was shot by Huang Zhong The dead body is just outside the tent, it is the dead body of General Pound!"

Speaking of this, Xu Huang's tone became even more tragic, "The situation under Xinye City suddenly changed. Huang Zhong shot and killed General Pang De with an arrow five hundred steps away, and then...then the enemy set fire to the camp, and our Wei army was defeated... The army was defeated like a mountain..."

Speaking of this, Xu Huang paused, his hoarse voice continued, he was almost crying: "Even... even the remnants of the Guan family in Xinye City... were taken away by Huang Zhong, and... It was taken--"

Xu Huang's protracted ending made Zhang Liao's pupils widen instantly, to the extreme.

His face was livid and pale, and his arms and hands began to tremble, trembling violently.

Then this numbness quickly swept across his legs, which made Zhang Liao's legs stagger and almost fell to the ground.

The hoarse voice came out.

"Gongming...Gongming, you mean, the remnants of the Guan family were rescued? General Pound also... died..."

"Yes... yes!" Xu Huang's answer was almost shouted, hoarse.

this time...

Zhang Liao was no longer able to calmly read "The Art of War". His whole body began to tremble, and he still couldn't believe it, "How many thousand people surrounded by 5 people? Then... will... die? People... people ran away? "

"It's gone... nothing?"

Zhang Liao had never fought such a humiliating battle in his life.

It has always been the general who fought against him to bear this humiliation.

But now...

With a "gudong", Zhang Liao's pupils became helpless and confused.

The evil cavalry sent by Sekiro Shiro, the evil general, the evil moves, the evil trapped in a tight siege, and finally the evil retreated...

The most bizarre thing is that at the end, he also took away a general of Cao Wei by the way.

Humiliation, grief, loss, helplessness, confusion...

All emotions were imposed on Zhang Liao at this moment.

At this moment, what he deeply experienced was the humiliation when "Sun Shiwan's troops overturned", the ultimate humiliation, the humiliation of being nailed to the pillar of shame forever.

Blessings are unparalleled, and misfortunes do not come singly.

at this time.

"Report—" a detective urgently reported: "General Zhang, just now when the detective sneaked into the valley, he discovered that there are only a few dozens of celebrities in the valley, and they are raising dust and bluffing."

This…

Zhang Liao's pupils widened subconsciously again, and he faintly had an ominous premonition.

Niu Gai, the deputy general, quickly asked, "What about Guan Yu? There are so many people, how can they be gone in the blink of an eye?"

Just when Niu Gai's voice fell.

"Report—" Another Tanma reported urgently: "Guan Yu's troops were discovered ten miles outside Yancheng. They broke up into pieces and bypassed Tanma's eyes, and they are making a surprise attack on Yancheng!"

"what--"

As soon as these words came out, Xu Huang, Niu Gai, and Yin Shu spoke almost at the same time.

Niu Gai and Yin Shu were amazed at how it was Yancheng, which was completely different from what General Zhang Wenyuan had deployed.

Xu Huang was horrified at the fact that he left Yancheng with [-] soldiers, so a very realistic question was before him, how many soldiers can there be in Yancheng today?
And who is the general?It can stop Guan Yu's attack, no... can it stop the internal and external attacks of the Guan family army inside and outside Yancheng?
On the other hand, Zhang Liao, at this moment, his most intuitive feeling is that the sky... all of a sudden collapsed.

Guan Yu's actions are completely different from Zhang Liao's analysis and prediction...

Fragmentation, the development of the whole situation, seems to be completely fragmented all at once.

——"Yancheng is in danger! 』

Thinking quickly, Zhang Liao immediately asked Tan Ma: "Can this news be reported to Mr. Zhao Yan?"

When he asked this question, Zhang Liao immediately felt that it was meaningless.

You know, Zhang Liao was the lieutenant general in the battle where Guan Yu's white horse beheaded Yan Liang, and he saw it clearly,

Guan Yu galloped to Baima City at an extremely fast speed!

The Tan Ma who was approaching Yan Liang actually saw it, but when they went back to report, they realized that their speed was not as fast as Guan Yu?
The cavalry under Guan Yu's command ran much faster than the enemy's scouts.

Before the enemy's scout horses rushed back to report the letter, Guan Yu had already been able to take the lead and attack directly!
Otherwise, in the battle of Guandu Baima, how could it be possible for Yan Liang to sit under the canopy when Guan Yu galloped to make a surprise attack, complacent and defenseless.

You know, in the battle of White Wolf Mountain, Zhang Liao suddenly defeated King Wuhuan;

In the battle of Xiaoyaojin, Zhang Liao and Sun Quan, the lord of the Eastern Wu, all used this trick, which was learned from Guan Yu and Guan Yunchang!

And thinking of this, bean-sized beads of sweat on Zhang Liao's forehead had already slid down like rain.

Tan Ma's reply also confirmed his conjecture.

"Someone has rushed to report to Mr. Zhao Yan, but... but Guan Yu's horse is faster, and this remnant army of the Guan family is even faster...I'm afraid...I'm afraid it's too late!"

——"It's over! 』

Zhang Liao subconsciously felt that it was over, it was over!

His face has changed, his legs are not staggering at all, but shaking violently like an old man suffering from typhoid fever, shaking violently!

How calm he was just now, how much Taishan collapsed in front of him without changing his face, how uncomfortable he is now...

How heartbroken!
"The order..."

Zhang Liao was worthy of being a famous general. With such huge unfavorable information, he was only in a daze for a short time, and then quickly calmed down, showing a vigorous and resolute side.

"General Xu Huang, General Niu Gai, General Yin Shu, you all immediately lead your troops to Yancheng to rescue Mr. Zhao Yan..."

"Here!" Xu Huang, Niu Gai, and Yin Shu knew that this matter was of great importance, so they quickly handed over their hands and were about to turn around and go to recruit troops.

"Wait." Zhang Liao suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly shouted to stop. He pondered for a while, and then showed his fierce side, he added bitterly: "It doesn't matter whether Mr. Zhao Yan can be saved, the important thing is that we must delay Live in Guan Yu... I'll be there soon!"

While talking, Zhang Liao also lifted the crescent halberd in the big tent, and hurried out too.

only…

Because he left in a hurry, the strong wind around him blew up the page number of "Sun Tzu's Art of War" on the table, and when the page number fell, the "virtual and real" in "Sun Tzu's Art of War" had been turned over this time .

Zhuan'er turned to "Sun Tzu's Art of War: Ji Pian" this time...

The text on it appeared vividly, with Guan Yu's fingerprint left and printed on it due to long-term reading.

--Soldiers who, deception also.

——Therefore, what can be shown is not possible, what is used can be shown not to be used, what is near can be shown to be far, and what is far can be shown to be near.

——Be lured by profit, take it from chaos, prepare it when it is real, evade it when strong, scratch it when angry, scratch it when humble, work hard when it is lost, and separate it from relatives.

——Attack the unprepared, take it by surprise.The victory of this military strategist cannot be passed on first.

And this whole article, a long story...

To sum it up is actually eight words.

——Attack the east and the west, attack the unprepared!

It seems that Zhang Liao's understanding of this chapter can only be compared with Guan Yu's at best, and far inferior to Xu Shu and Xu Yuanzhi!
Xu Shu's strategic deployment is the enterprise-level comprehension in this chapter of "Sun Tzu's Art of War: Ji Pian"!

...

...

Xiangyang City, inside the Jingzhou Third Official Medical Office.

With a light like a bean, Guan Xing has been bandaged and his life is out of danger, but he is still in a coma.

Guan Lin came here after visiting Huang Zhong, Guan Ping and some of the seriously wounded. He sat by Guan Xing's bed and looked at his brother who was almost ruined by Guan's army because of his negligence.

Guan Suo stood behind Guan Lin, still wiping away tears.

In fact, Guan Suo also suffered from severe typhoid fever, but when he heard that Guan Xing was back, he also heard that Guan Xing blocked the knife for his elder brother and General Huang.

Can't help but come here to beg Guan Lin.

"Fourth brother, cough... I know that military law is like a mountain, and I also know...cough cough...the military discipline of the Guan family army should be reshaped, and I know...if the father returns, even...cough cough...Even if the second brother saves his life...he will definitely not escape military discipline Punishment, doomed to die..."

Speaking of which...

With a "click", Guan Suo, who was weak, knelt down towards Guan Lin, "Fourth brother, I beg you...you have a lot of ideas, please save second brother, he...don't you know his temper? He just wanted to make meritorious deeds, he wanted to make meritorious deeds and thought of being dazed, so he did something wrong, he...he didn't mean it like this!"

"I don't know that the second brother's intention is not like this." Guan Lin's voice was hoarse, "But...it's not my soldiers who reshape the military discipline, it's the Guan family army... It's not me who wants to punish the second brother, it's our father...I ...I can fight against my father, I can be a rebellious son, but I have never disobeyed military discipline, I can hold my own, and my father can't touch me, but how can I keep my second brother? Tell me...he is like this Guilty? How do I keep him?"

At the end, Guan Lin's tone became more serious...

He looked at Guan Xing's cheek again, and his heart was full of "hate brother for not becoming steel".

In addition, Guan Lin is very clear about the temperament of his father Guan Yu. He can stop some things, but he has no idea about Guan Xing... He really has no idea in his heart. Temper is out of line!

"Then...then send the second brother to Bashu." Guan Suo had an idea, and suggested: "Uncle...the uncle will definitely stop the father, and the uncle can keep the second brother..."

"Oh, my stupid brother..." Guan Lin spread his hands helplessly: "It's about military discipline? Will our uncle stop the person our father wants to kill?"

Guan Lin paused, "Even if we take ten thousand steps back and say that our uncle really stopped us and saved us, then...if this kind of thing happens again in the future, will everyone carry them to Bashu and Rende's uncle? Can you escape from punishment? Then who respects military discipline? Everyone has sent troops without permission! What has become of our uncle, a place where filth is hidden? How will the people of the world think of our uncle!"

This…

Guan Suo was almost told by Guan Lin that he was crying, and big teardrops fell from his eyes.

The ground was wet, and the gown he was kneeling on was also wet.

"Get up." Guan Lin yelled, "If kneeling is useful, the world will be unified that day. Your fourth brother and I alone can kneel Cao Cao to death! This world has long been peaceful!"

Hearing Guan Lin's words, Guan Suo felt aggrieved, but still refused to get up...

At this time, Guan Xing woke up with a groan, saw the person in front of him clearly, and asked in confusion, "Fourth brother, fifth brother...how am I still alive? How can I still be alive?"

That's right, he's dead, it's over, and he can be regarded as using the final credit to make up for some of the crimes he committed.

But living...is difficult!It is necessary to face all mistakes.

Thinking of this, Guan Xing tried his best to look around, "Where is the sword? Where is my sword? Let me die... Once I die, clear the military discipline of the Guan family army, go...go...cough cough..."

In the middle of speaking, Guan Xing coughed violently.

Guan Lin sighed, but stood up straight. He took a deep look at Guan Xing, "Second Brother, I'm not talking about you. What the hell are you dying for now? What do you look like?"

"I know you want to die, but the eldest brother took the pains to bring you back. The fifth brother cried because of you kneeling on the ground. I don't need to think about it. If the third sister knows what you look like, she will... definitely feel extremely sad , drag me and let me help you!"

Speaking of this, Guan Lin snorted coldly, "The big guys are racking their brains to save you, you put it upside down, are you looking for death? Are you going to make atonement? Are you going to settle it once and for all? Come..."

Guan Lin yelled directly, and told Shiwu outside the door, "Give him the sword, let him commit suicide... let him finish it all!"

This…

When Shi Wu outside the door heard this, he looked at the sword in his hand, but Zhang Xingcai quickly snatched the sword away and shook his head desperately.

Guan Lin didn't wait for the sword, but his anger was still there. He simply ignored Guan Xing's sickness and injury, pointed at Guan Xing and cursed angrily: "You are relieved when you die, but it is clear? But you are worthy of our Guan family army. Are you a soldier? Come, Weizhi, tell him, how many of your thousand men are still alive?"

This…

Guan Suo hesitated for a moment, but still opened his mouth: "Only 37 people escaped! The rest...the whole army was wiped out!"

"Did you hear that?" Guan Lin then angrily scolded Guan Xing, "Out of 1000 people, 37 flesh-and-blood brothers, only 900 were killed alive? What about the remaining [-] people? Other schools, other villages... die What about the thousands, even tens of thousands of soldiers of the family? Are you worthy of them?"

The more Guan Lin spoke, the more vigorous he became, "If I were you, even if our father wanted to kill me, I wouldn't be able to die, and I would have no face to die! I have to escape if I escape, I can't just die like this, I die It's easy... But those soldiers who died because of me, can I atone for this sin? Who will pay for their lives?"

"If I were you, I would learn from Nie Zheng and Jing Ke. I know that Cao Cao, who rebels against Wei, is surrounded by strict protection, and I will try to kill the thief Cao with a three-foot sword! The wind is rustling and the water is cold, and I will not kill Cao Cao. If the thief doesn’t make amends, I won’t return what I’m so special!”

At the end, Guan Lin's tone seemed to be extremely angry.

He took another deep look at Guan Xing.

He turned around and waved his hands: "Forget it...you love me so much...I'm your fourth brother, not your father, I don't care about you!"

While talking, Guan Lin walked out of the official medical office angrily, leaving only Guan Xing, Guan Suo, and Zhang Xingcai in front of the door stunned...

It's the hospital next door.

Lu Xun and Lu Yan are together, and Lu Xun is bandaging his son's wound.

The voice here, they both heard clearly.

Lu Yan asked: "Mr. Yunqi, have you said this? They are all brothers...Why are you so sarcastic? Even if you don't help, you won't be in trouble, right?"

After hearing what his son said, Lu Xun paused for a moment while bandaging his wound.

Then, Lu Xun shook his head slightly, and pondered: "My son, remember, what you see may not be true, and what you hear may not be true. Yun Qi is pointing his second brother! Pointing his second brother A way out!"

advice?

Lu Yan really didn't think about it.

Lu Xun added a sentence, as a reminder to his son, "His second brother committed such a serious crime. If he stays in the Guan family army, he will surely die when Guan Yu comes back. If he escapes... maybe there is still a chance!"

"Ah...escape?" Lu Yan was shocked by his father's words.

Lu Xun nodded, "Didn't you hear what Yunqi said? The wind is rustling and Yi Shuihan is cold. If you don't kill Cao thief, you won't make amends—you won't return it! What if you kill Cao Cao? Wouldn't it be possible to offset the merits and demerits!"

With these words, Lu Xun deliberately slowed down his tone.

Listening to these words, Lu Yan suddenly felt a little meaningful.

So the question is coming?

Assassinate Cao Cao?

This...Guan Lin really dared to think, and his father Lu Xun really dared to listen!
