After being driven away by Liu Bei, Cao Cao paid homage to my chief military adviser

Chapter 58 Old Fox Jia Xu: Xu Chu has an expert behind him!
"Sir! Sir! The prime minister rewarded you with wine and meat, and we brought it to you!"

As he said that, Xu Chu pushed the cart for transporting grain and grass, and entered the courtyard through the back door.

This trolley is full of three jars of fine wine.

The venison wrapped in lotus leaves is still steaming.

After parking the scooter, Xu Chu came to Chen Mu with the wine jar in his arms, carrying the venison.

"Look, sir, the top-quality peach blossom stuffing is the venison smoked and roasted by the imperial chef invited by Xu Du."

"These are all good things!"

As he spoke, Xu Chu carefully placed the venison wrapped in lotus leaves on the stone table.

Immediately afterwards, he slapped the wine seal with his palm.

All of a sudden, the aroma of wine was tangy.

The scent of peach blossoms lingers in the courtyard.

Chen Mu shrugged and sniffed.

Not to mention, this peach blossom stuffing is delicious!
After coming to the small courtyard several times in succession, Xu Chu already knew where the bowls and chopsticks were placed.

He went into the room and took out the bowls and chopsticks, picked up the wine jar and served it to Chen Muman first.

Then fill yourself up.

Xu Chu picked up the wine bowl, toasted respectfully and said, "Sir, why are you so good, can you count Zhou Yu thoroughly?"

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Chen Mu's response, Xu Chu raised his head and gulped down his drink.

Looking at the idiot in front of him, Chen Mu picked up the wine bowl and took a sip.

The peach blossom stuffing is cool and refreshing.

Fresh and elegant, very greasy.

Chen Mu looked Xu Chu up and down, and said, "I see you, gratitude is a small thing, but a request is a big one."

"Tell me, what else do you want me to ask?"

Seeing through his mind at a glance, Xu Chu smiled a little embarrassedly.

He scratched his head and said with a silly smile:

"I can't hide anything from Mr. Huo Jun. Recently, when Huo Jun came to vote, a major event happened. The military adviser Chen Mu from Liu Bei's camp left. The prime minister wants to find military adviser Chen Mu."

Chen Mu stopped the wine glass in his hand, could he have been discovered?
It seems that Xiangyang can't stay for a long time. If Cao Cao finds out that Liu Bei's military division who has earned him so many soldiers and horses is in Cao Ying, then he will be killed by a thousand swords?

Chen Mu knew that when he plotted against Cao Cao for Liu Bei, he almost let Cao Cao lose in Guandu.

"I'm here this time... mainly to ask for advice, sir, how can I find Chen Mu and find a great sage for my lord."

Hearing what Xu Chu said, Chen Mu couldn't help frowning slightly.

"Daxian?"

When will Xu Chu be able to write words?

But this great sage is too heavy, I can't bear the name of a great sage.

"Sir, why don't you come with me to meet the Prime Minister, I couldn't find Chen Mu, but I found Mr... My lord will definitely use Mr.

Xu Chu saw that Chen Mu was silent.

"Oh sir, it's not like you don't know."

"I can't hold anything in my stomach."

"What you taught me before... I have already shaken it all in front of the prime minister."

"Combined with Xinye and the matter of Fanyanghu Water Village this time, everyone in the army thought that I was plotting against Zhuge and Zhou Lang."

"If the prime minister gets excited and asks me about the art of war, but I can't tell you, wouldn't it be...you think so?"

"I recommended two sirs to my lord, but my lord is busy with military affairs."

Seeing Xu Chu's rather embarrassed look, Chen Mu shook his head and smiled.

Are you plotting Zhou Lang and Zhuge?

I'm afraid even Xiahou Dun wouldn't believe it.

Not to mention Jia Xu and those old foxes.

To Cao Ying?
That must not be possible.

In Cao Ying, how luxurious is the strategist regiment?

Not to mention the Xun family in Yingchuan, even Chen Qun, Zhong Yao and others are from famous families?
What am I going to Cao Ying for?
Let these old foxes stare at them?
Chen Mu raised his finger to point at Xu Chu, and scolded with a smile:
"You, you, everything is written on your face, no wonder the prime minister believes in you so much."

Xu Chu couldn't tell whether the husband was boasting or scolding.

Anyway, he was just boasting.

With a silly smile, Xu Chu said triumphantly:

"I... I am a man and a straightforward person."

"The prime minister can say, I would rather have ten Xu Chus by my side than ten Jia Wenhes by my side."

Seeing Xu Chu, the queen mother, selling melons and boasting of her virtues, Chen Mu pouted.

He took a sip of peach blossom wine and tore a piece of venison.

While chewing, he frowned and thought.

What do you want to teach Xu Chu?

Thinking about it, Chen Mu suddenly said:
"Stupid, how old is the prime minister's army?"

Xu Chu trusted Mr., without hiding anything, and said directly:

"I think [-]% of them have arrived, and most of the troops are still on the way."

"Why are you asking this, sir?"

Hearing this, the corners of Chen Mu's mouth turned up slightly. He tapped Xu Chu's head with his chopsticks and said:

"Next, I will teach you how to march and fight, and how to plan battles!"

As soon as he said that he was going to talk about the art of war, Xu Chu immediately became energetic.

While chewing the venison, Chen Mu said:
"Those who make good use of soldiers will no longer serve, and their food will not last for three years. They will be used for the country. Because the food is from the enemy, the army will have enough food. If the country is poorer than the teacher, it will lose far away, and if it loses far away, the people will be poor; those who are close to the teacher will be more expensive. If you sell it expensively, the people will run out of money, and if the money is exhausted, they will be eager to serve in the hills."

In the middle of speaking, Chen Mu turned to look at Xu Chu, and whispered:

"Just remember."

Xu Chu nodded repeatedly, repeating Chen Mu's words in his mouth.

After doing this dozens of times, Xu Chu finally wrote down the general idea.

Only then did Chen Mu continue to talk:

"Strengthen the Central Plains, the internal emptiness is in the home, the expenses of the common people, seven out of ten; the expenses of the public, break the army and stop the horses, armor and arrow bows, halberds, shields, spears and oars, and oxen and carts, six out of ten. Therefore, wise generals will do their work. If you feed on the enemy, if you eat the enemy for one minute, you will be mine for twenty minutes; if you avoid a stone, you will be worth twenty stones. Therefore, those who kill the enemy are angry; those who take advantage of the enemy are goods."

After repeating it dozens of times, Xu Chu wrote down the general idea.

Chen Mu originally wanted to continue, but seeing Xu Chu's one-headed and two-big appearance, he knew it.

Going on, Xu Chu's mind was completely confused.

Shaking his head helplessly, Chen Mu tapped Xu Chu's head with his chopsticks and said:
"I've taught you so much today, it's enough to deal with Boss Cao."

After hearing that, Xu Chuwen had a happy expression on his face.

But soon, the rejoicing expression turned into a frown and doubt.

He asked suspiciously:
"Eh, sir."

"What do you mean by all this?"

Chen Mu chuckled lightly, and said:
"You idiot, why are you in a hurry?"

"Remember everything?"

Xu Chu scratched his head and said with a wry smile:

"I remember seven or eight..."

Chen Mu nodded:

"That would be enough."

"What I'm going to say next, just keep it in mind, don't let Boss Cao see the clues."

Xu Chu nodded repeatedly.

Chen Mu picked up the wine bowl, took a big gulp, and explained:

"What I'm teaching you is Sun Tzu's Art of War, Combat Chapter."

"Those who are good at using soldiers don't need to recruit soldiers again, and don't need to transport rations many times."

"Weapons and equipment are supplied domestically, and we try to seize food from the enemy, so that we can ensure sufficient food and grass for the army."

"The reason why the country is impoverished by war is because the army is on an expedition and has to transport food over long lines."

"And long-term transportation will inevitably lead to poverty for the people. Prices near the garrison will inevitably soar."

"The soaring prices will inevitably lead to the depletion of supplies."

"Materials are exhausted, taxes and labor will inevitably increase."

"On the battlefield, the military power is exhausted, and the domestic financial resources are exhausted. The property of the four households of the common people is exhausted. Seventy-eight out of ten of the property of the public, vehicles are damaged, horses are exhausted, armor, bows and arrows, etc. are depleted by sixty-seven out of ten."

"So, how can you be undefeated?"

After hearing what Chen Mu said, Xu Chu stared wide-eyed.

Although he is stupid, he is not stupid.

He is very clear about leading troops to fight.

In the past, he didn't understand that the prime minister had a million soldiers, and that number could crush Jiangdong rats to death.

But why is the prime minister still so cautious, step by step?
After listening to what Chen Mu said today, he suddenly realized!

"Sir, I moved!"

"What Mr. said solved my many years of confusion!"

Xu Chu spoke confidently, but Chen Mu suspected that this Xu Chu was imitating others.

Also unravel years of confusion?

I think you're pretending to understand.

"So, on the battlefield, a well-informed general must deal with food and grass in the enemy's country."

"One bell of grain and grass obtained from the enemy's country is equivalent to twenty bells transported from our own country!"

"One stone of fodder from the enemy country is equivalent to twenty stones from our own country!"

"In order to achieve this, the soldiers must fight to the death!"

"If you want soldiers to fight to the death, you have to make them angry and motivate them."

"If soldiers are to be brave enough to seize the enemy's military supplies, they must be rewarded with disturbed property."

"Do you remember what I said?"

After Chen Mu finished speaking, he turned to look at Xu Chu.

But found that Xu Chu's face was full of astonishment, sometimes frowning, sometimes brightening up.

It seems to have opened up the two veins of Ren and Du.

"Remember?"

"Well, what Mr. said solved my many years of confusion!"

"I asked you if you remember?"

Xu Chu shook his head.

"I didn't remember, can you tell me again, sir?"

"You didn't remember, what did you say to unravel years of confusion?"

"I am the lord of the school. The lord always says that after solving years of confusion, the other party will be happy. I will use it now."

Chen Mu looked at Xu Chu's naive expression, and squeezed out a word between his teeth: "Get lost!"

……

At this time, in Cao Cao's large tent of the Chinese army, Cao Cao looked around.

"Hey, where is Zhongkang?"

Jia Xu stood up and said, "Prime Minister, just now General Xu Chu left the table and left in a hurry, he seems to have something on his mind..."

"Oh, do you know where Xu Chu went?"

Cao Cao swayed slightly drunk and stood up.

In recent days, Xu Chu has repeatedly made military exploits, but Cao Cao always believed that it was Jia Xu who made suggestions through Xu Chu.

This matter needs to be clarified with Jia Xu.

Jia Xu looked at the prime minister, he once thought that Xu Chu's plan was the prime minister's plan.

But after Lianquanshui Village was burned, he suddenly realized that it was not the prime minister who decided on a strategy through Xu Chu's mouth.

If the prime minister knew that Zhou Yu had attacked Lianquanshui village, how could he just sit idly by?

There is an expert behind Xu Chu!
