Three Kingdoms: Sir, you love learning too much!

Chapter 78 I Only Tell You, Don't Tell Others

Lu Bu was furious in the army, and when he heard the news, everyone was dumbfounded.

Isn't Cao Cao confronting me in the barracks outside the city?Why did he lead his army to Yuzhou and take Yingchuan.

What is Yuan Shu doing?He can't even defend his own Yuzhou. There are so many bandits in Yuzhou, and he still doesn't go to suppress the bandits. If all these bandits are taken down by Cao Cao, he may be able to suppress Xuzhou and Yangzhou by himself!
"Wen Yuan, is the news true?"

Lu Bu asked unwillingly.

Zhang Liao's face froze, and he cupped his hands helplessly and said, "This news should have been deliberately let go from Xiapi, otherwise how could it have spread to Tan County so quickly."

"If that's the case, it might be fake, right?" Lu Bu asked again uncertainly. He really couldn't believe that he was played by Cao Cao to this point.

This old thief is really scheming and cunning.

He actually used the handsome flag to set up a suspicious formation in this army, and personally conquered the Yuzhou thieves, in a vain attempt to go to Yuzhou to expand.

Zhang Liao was silent at the side, but in his opinion, the news might be true. He had deployed suspicious troops in Xuzhou, making people think that Cao Cao was in the main army. In fact, he was going to take Yingchuan with a thunderbolt.

And now, Cao Cao has done it.

Judging from the situation, only by mobilizing troops immediately can Xuzhou be stabilized, otherwise it will be too late after Cao Cao's troops quell the chaos in Yuzhou and then send troops to the battlefield in Xuzhou.

"Cao thief, you have played tricks on me many times, how can I swallow this tone! Immediately send troops to attack his camp. Since Cao Cao is not here, his main force must not be here either. Take Pengcheng while he is away!"

Now the whole army understands that a big victory is urgently needed to stabilize the morale of the army.

Otherwise, once this kind of news spreads, everyone will be afraid in their hearts, thinking that Cao Cao's use of troops is really unpredictable, so they dare not fight with him again.

Who dares to take on a mortal battle?
……

Within Xuzhou and Xiapi.

Guo Yi and Bao Xin stationed troops here, with Gao Shun and Dian Wei in the vanguard, and the general of the Chinese army will be banned.

More than 1 soldiers and horses were stationed in the city, of which [-] were led by Cao Hong, camped and waited on the flanks, consuming rations day and night, in case Lu Bu came to attack.

"Meng Yu, the news has already been let go. It is estimated that Lu Bu has already known the news that our army has captured Yingchuan. We will see his movements next."

Bao Xin came up from the bottom of the city and saw Guo Yi on the city wall looking into the distance, so he hurried all the way with a smile on his face.

"Your plan is a good plan, and it is a clever plan. It is estimated that you can hide it from Lu Bu and Yuan Shu. The two are still preparing for a big battle, but our army can build first."

Guo Yi turned his head and bowed slightly.

He said with a smile on his face: "I guess, the morale of Lu Bu's army has been lost, and the counselors are about to run away. The next step is not to fight, but to bring Chen Yuanlong back."

"Chen Deng," Bao Xin thought about the name, and nodded secretly.

He had heard of Chen Deng's reputation. He was the son of Peixiang Chen Gui, and his family had once reached the position of Sangong. He was very famous in Xuzhou, and he could be said to be the No. 1 family.

His ancestral land is in Xiapi, but Chen Yuanlong is now in Lv Bu's army, governing Tan County for him, but it must be obvious that the two are at odds.

"Does Meng Yu have a plan?"

Bao Xin asked with a smile, since we talked about this matter, there should be a solution.

"No, but I don't think he will resist," Guo Yi thought for a moment, and a map of the area appeared in his mind. It is very convenient to memorize the mountains, rivers and landforms he has seen.

Of course, Guo Yi estimated that many capable ministers have this kind of memory, but it has not turned into some kind of "ability". This is the most essential ability to occupy a geographical advantage.

So every time you go to a certain place, you need a guide. This is the reason.

There are many roads that must be kept in mind so as not to get lost.

Otherwise, when Huohou traveled eight hundred miles across the desert, without the ability to memorize the map, he would have been defeated long ago. Therefore, although Guo Yi was very excited at the beginning, now that he thinks about it carefully, he understands that this ability is just the foundation.

After thinking for a while, Guo Yi turned to Bao Dao: "I'm going to find out if there are soldiers and horses encamped in the mountains on the left and right sides of Xiapi, and who is in command."

"Perhaps we can defeat them one by one. Now, for Lu Bu, it is a foregone conclusion that all the relatives will be betrayed. His trusted soldiers followed him from Chang'an to Hedong, and then to Huaiyang. Now they are settled in Xuzhou, but because of taking Xuzhou, they are riding a tiger."

"I believe that as long as Lu Bu is attracted to attack, Tan County can be taken empty-handed, and then Lu Bu will be driven away, leaving him with nowhere to go."

Now, they have the upper hand, while Lu Bu is impatient and has fallen into a passive position.

Mentally, these strategies are already enough advantages. Lu Bu is unstoppable and can only be led by the nose. Maybe he can try it.

"Bao Xiang, it's also my first time to design it myself. I want to learn more about the art of war and then make preparations. Can you give me a night?"

"Of course," Bao Xin's expression froze immediately, and he smiled wryly unconsciously.

You are still too modest.

What is the first design, you have spoken many times and read military books, this is not enough, I feel sorry.

"Meng Yu, you're too humble. These days you often read military books at night in the army, and you are still diligent in studying. Such a temperament makes the lieutenants admire. Even Wen Ze has come to me several times to praise you. I have never seen such a sincere person like you. Mr. Ciming really trusts you."

Xun Shuang didn't like being an official, so many scholars still respectfully called him Mr., Teacher, etc., but they didn't know his official name, because he had been an official for more than a year, and he was forced to leave by Dong Zhuo's tyranny.

"Hey, Prime Minister Bao..." Guo Yi looked troubled, and moved closer, "I'm only telling you, don't say it out there."

Bao Xin's face turned serious, and he said seriously: "Meng Yu, please tell me."

"Mr. Xun and I, in fact, forget the years of friendship, not the relationship between master and apprentice. We even almost became sworn brothers, so...you know the title of disciple."

"Oh?!"

Bao Xin was immediately amazed. He didn't expect that there were these secrets in it. Are the two actually Han Bin's long-lost friends?

It sounds like those rumors are even more colorful.

An old man walks like a rotten tree, powerless to save the great man and the world, so he can only entrust this great trust to the passionate youth, teach him what he has learned, and hope to become a hero?
It's another good story.

"Don't worry Meng Yu, I will keep my mouth shut."

Bao Xin patted his chest.

In the evening, Guo Yi searched through the book of war hidden in Xiapi, and when he saw the place where his mind was agitated, he put the book in his arms and took it away. Bao Xin did not dare to take a rest because of his diligent and cautious attitude all night.

Because Guo Yi also said that the tragedy of "talking about war on paper" could not be avoided. After Guo Yi came up with a plan, he had to discuss it with him first, and then Bao Xin would make a decision.

To put it bluntly, I am in charge of the design, but you have to be the first responsible person.

So Bao Xin was also very nervous now. While Guo Yi was still withdrawing his military documents, he also recalled the actual problems encountered in these years of combat, wrote them down one by one, and told Guo Yi all of them.

After all, the records in the book are different from the reality.

Most of the military books are ideas, even if they are written directly as strategies, they need to be used according to the situation, and the whole letter cannot be copied.

In the middle of the night, Guo Yi had collected a big bag of books, files, etc., and said to Dian Wei, "Take them all back to my house, and I'll read them slowly at night."

Seeing this, Bao Xin slowly twitched the corner of his mouth.

Beast! !

You take less!These things will be asked later, should I report the war damage? !
You even have to take the county annals of Xiapi!There are many playlists!
What are you doing with it? !Go home and light a fire? !
"Meng, Meng Yu...so that's what you meant when you said you had read all the military books." Bao Xin smiled reluctantly, but he let Guo Yi in this place by himself, so it's hard to say anything.

Report the battle damage.

Anyway, no one will ask about this in the future.

But if you turn around like this, is it really helpful to think of a strategy?
Just be an individual, you told me directly that you want to come in and grab it, can I not let you grab it? !

No, he even tried to hide it, he has enough respect for me, Meng Yu is still a kind person.

Bao Xin sighed a little in his heart, since things have come to this point, he can only persuade himself in this way.

"I just read a little bit, and I have some ideas, which I can discuss with Bao Xiang. Please call General Gao Shun and General Yu Jin."

Bao Xin nodded and laughed, knowing that Guo Yi might have thought of a plan in advance, but he still smiled lovingly and said, "Okay."

……

In the military tent, Gao Shun arrived later.

First, he and Guo Yi solemnly saluted outside the military tent, then went to the side of the tent to inquire about the current situation, and at the same time showed their feelings, saying that if Guo Yi had any troubles, he could tell him to do it.

When Gao Shun said this, he was not flattering, but righteous.

And no longer mention the matter of competing with Guo Yi.

On the one hand, he was afraid of being beaten by Dian Wei. That barbarian couldn't beat him no matter what, except that he was slightly better than when he was on a bow horse.

On the other hand, it was because he had never made friends with Guo Yi, and even did not visit him after he surrendered, but Guo Yi recommended him to lead the army to fight Xuzhou regardless of the previous suspicions.

This is also a kindness.

"Sir, it would be quite dangerous to dispatch with tricks today, so it's better to let Shun go."

"Shun must work hard to kill the enemy, so as not to let the master's plan be mediocre."

Gao Shun is a smart person with a straightforward personality, and he is not afraid of death.

Guo Yi is gracious, he naturally understands that Guo Yi seldom uses tactics in the army, and in the past most of his advice was based on "strategies", but the strategy is a long-term policy, not a strategy for a battle.

If the arrangement is improper, people may be criticized in the future, and it will also affect the three armed forces.

Once other people make some mistakes in the strategy, of course it will have a great impact.

But Gao Shun has made up his mind, so he won't back down, no matter what the plan is, he will find a way to achieve his expectations.

"The strategy is not too difficult. I ordered the general to take the East Village in Tan County. I just came back from the investigation and found out that Lu Bu's general Hao Meng built a village in the East."

"The general needs to be trapped in the battle."

Gao Shun smiled brightly, "What's so difficult about this? When I first built this elite group, the name was a trap. Naturally, I have no fear. This should be the last general's achievement in making a name for himself. Thank you, sir."

"If I had known that Mr. Ciming was a disciple of Mr. Ciming, the general decided that he would not be so rude at the beginning. Mr. has the talent to help the world, so he must not be humiliated."

Guo Yi smiled slightly when he heard this, but still leaned closer to Gao Shun, "Mr. Ciming's matter... well, I only tell you, you must not tell others..."

"it is good!"

"He and I, in fact, forgot the years and almost sworn brothers."

Gao Shun was shocked, "Sir, you only tell me about such an important matter?"

"It's good that you know it. What is being said now is helpless."

Guo Yi patted him on the shoulder again, sighed and walked into the tent.

After Gao Shun thought about it, he was convinced.

Sure enough, no one would believe this kind of thing. After all, he was Xun Shuang, one of the eight dragons of the Xun family. How could he marry a young man who was almost white?
But... Mr. only told me one person.

This kind of trust kept brewing a flame in Gao Shun's heart, which was warm, and only he knew it.

In the military tent, after Yu Jin waited for Guo Yi to come in, he also got up to greet him.

Bao Xinan took the main seat, and Guo Yi took the first seat on the left. After looking around, he said, "The East Village is guarded by Hao Meng, and the West Village must also have strong generals."

"Lü Bu set up several city defenses with different soldiers and horses. They are all surrounded by mountains and rivers to protect Tan County and prevent soldiers and horses from entering."

"At this time, it is actually difficult to attack."

"However, Dongzhai and Xizhai are used by him to support Tan County, so he can attack these two places. Dongzhai has a higher terrain and needs to climb uphill. It is difficult for cavalry to pass through. General Gao Shun can lead the army to attack."

"If this is the case, Lu Bu will definitely come to attack, and the defenses we set up before will soon be relaxed." Guo Yi looked around and explained, "Because Lu Bu has been suffering for a long time, the army in his city is short of food, and the morale of the army is turbulent. If it continues, there may be a mutiny."

"At this time, when he first heard the news that the lord has made great achievements in Yuzhou, he must be anxious. Whether it is true or not, he needs to fight urgently."

"At this time, General Zi Lian led the army to Xizhai. He didn't want to fight, but focused on maneuvering around. It made people think that there were enemies on all sides and disturbed Lu Jun's eyes and ears. At the same time, Prime Minister Bao personally attacked Tan County."

"Our army has the upper hand in this battle. There is no need to chase and kill Lu Bu. We just need to drive and chase him. We will continue to disturb him."

"So after this battle, he still doesn't know whether the news is true or not. How can there be so many elites when he divides his troops? As everyone knows, the elites and quality of Gao Shun's camp are far superior to ordinary elite soldiers, and the army he has been training for a long time is also quite famous."

"This is a general map," Guo Yi said, and spread out a simple map on the table, drawing the locations of Dongzhai and Xizhai.

He pointed to the West Village and said, "General Zi Lian, I guessed this place, the location may not be exact, but the pass is indeed here, you can hold here, if there is any change to resist, you must keep Lü Bu's troops isolated from each other, and you can supplement your troops with supplies, food and grass in this village."

"Hey!"

Cao Hong nodded immediately, and looked at Guo Yi with a smile, full of approval. He loved Guo Yi as much as he hated him back then.

very nice!Whoever scolds Guo Yi in the future, I will twist his head.

"Bao Xiang, how about I go to Puyang with the army?"

"Meng Yu don't go, you just guard Xiapi," Bao Xin said solemnly immediately, leaving no room for Guo Yi to talk. He was told by three or four people a long time ago that guarding Guo Yi would not allow him to go to the battlefield.

This kid, if he doesn't pay attention, he will chase him for eight hundred miles. What if something happens to him one day.

Like the champion Hou back then, he was aggressive and aggressive, full of pride.

But he doesn't have the strength of other champions.

Guo Yi's mood faded immediately, and he asked Bao Dao: "Mr. Bao, is my plan okay?"

"Be more confident."

Bao Xin nodded solemnly, "Advance and retreat are reasonable, and long-term driving is also necessary, but you are right, Lu Bu is definitely holding back a fight right now, we will send him this fight, and he will have to come out if he doesn't come out."

"Force him out first, and then we'll talk about it. Whether it's a clever plan or not depends on the result."

What Bao Xin admired the most was Guo Yi's foresight. The Chinese army blocked Lu Bu's retreat and made him leave Tan County.

Once he can't occupy the central place, he will naturally change hands.

……

That night, the Gaoshun camp took advantage of the night to go out, and marched straight to the east camp of Tan County. The scouts outside found it early, and the general reported it back to Tan County.

Guan Yu, who was in Xiaopei and was stationed in Pengcheng at the same time, also received the military report that night.

Guan Yu thought about it for a while, and roughly understood his intention.

"It should be to attack Dongzhai and lure Lu Bu to rescue and encircle him. Then this soldier should be used as a decoy."

It's time to fight in Tan County.

"Pass my order to send troops tonight to attack Duyang and occupy the canal, so as to help them."
