Three Kingdoms: My Strategy Simulator

Chapter 213 Anticipate the enemy first
Guo Jia thought for a while, and after making his own judgment about the current situation, he asked.

"Mr. Zikun, how did Shanyue appear in Qiantang County? Is it confirmed that the defense line of Fuchun Mountain has not been breached?"

There is no doubt that as one of the top wise men, Guo Jia was also keenly aware of the contradictions in the situation and asked Li Ji.

"The defense line of Fuchun Mountain is still there, there is no doubt about it."

Li Ji replied affirmatively, and Guo Jia was alone in the army. With no chance to leak information, Li Ji did not hide it from Guo Jia, but also handed over the military reports about Zhao Yun and Guan Yu. I gave Guo Jia a look.

'The situation is much more complicated than imagined...'

Guo Jia's face became a little more solemn unconsciously, and he instinctively stood on the opposite side and started thinking, thinking about the purpose of the three thousand Shanyue appearing in Qiantang County.

By now, Li Ji had led his army to the south of Wu County to stabilize the situation, and Zhao Yun's cavalry patrolled the three counties of Qiantang, Yuhang, and Fuchun to drive the rebellious Shanyue into the jungle. Li Ji also knew that there was no point in being anxious.

Therefore, Li Ji took his time and made a pot of tea, pushed a cup to Guo Jia, and asked.

"Is there any judgment?"

Moreover, the mountain crossing was only a mere three thousand. After the impact of the cavalry led by Zhao Yun, there were probably only a thousand defeated troops left.

"There is some speculation."

Guo Jia responded, then picked up a brush and started writing on the bamboo slips.

Even if a more skilled strategist vaguely senses something is wrong, he will only strengthen the defenses in Qiantang County as much as possible to prevent Shanyue from attacking Qiantang County again.

But Guo Jia quickly recalled all the information he had seen in the army. There was no mention of "Yuji County" at all. Even the map only marked this small place belonging to Kuaiji County on the edge. county.

Seeing this, Li Ji also brought a blank bamboo slip and wrote two words: "Fuchun Mountain" and "Yuji County".

Especially when both parties agreed on the previous answer, the word "Yuji County" written by Li Ji was undoubtedly particularly irritating to Guo Jia.

Li Ji secretly said, this can be said to have once again verified Guo Jia's talent.

Immediately, Guo Jia took a few more sips before speaking with some pride.

Guo Jia picked up the tea cup and took a sip. The refreshing aroma that was different from boiled tea made Guo Jia's eyes light up.

And Guo Jia was able to judge in a very short period of time that it seemed to be as stable as Mount Tai, and was not even affected by the military report that Guan Yu had voluntarily evacuated Fuchun Mountain. It was not easy to judge "Fuchun Mountain" or the key point.

'It is truly a genius to be able to judge the key points so quickly. '

"Don't forget that you and I are competing." Guo Jia reminded confidently.

If they were ordinary local officials, their subconscious thought would be to organize people to go into the jungle to search for traces of the remaining Shanyue soldiers. They would even dispatch a group of soldiers from Fuchun Mountain to assist, find the remaining soldiers as soon as possible and kill them to prevent future troubles.

"Oh? Let's talk about it." Li Ji said.

Later, Li Ji rolled up the bamboo slips and exchanged them with the confident Guo Jia.

"In that case, how about you and I each write on the bamboo slips and exchange them for reading?" Li Ji said with a smile.

However, when Guo Jia looked at the second word "Yuji County" written by Li Ji, his brows were completely twisted into a ball. He was completely confused about how "Yuji County" had anything to do with the attack on Qiantang County. Word.

"it is good!"

Li Ji opened the bamboo slip written by Guo Jia and saw the words "Fuchun Mountain" written on it.

After all, all the information currently revealed is that there is a secret route in Shanyue that bypasses Fuchun Mountain and leads to Qiantang County. As for the Fuchun Mountain area, it has been calm for three months.

"Yuji County, how did you deduce it? And what does it have to do with Shanyue?" Guo Jia asked.

However, Li Ji asked a seemingly irrelevant question, which made Guo Jia slightly startled.

"Fengxiao, what are your thinking habits?"

"Thinking habits?" Guo Jia asked.

"Yes, for example, my habit is to use the known information to make the maximum deduction, and then I can reach a relatively common saying: look at one step and count ten steps..."

Li Ji first used himself as an example, and then he sold Jia Xu, who was living in Wu County and did not want to follow Li Ji to the south, and said.

"In addition, I have a close friend named Jia Wenhe. His thinking habits are purely to exert various influences on human nature to achieve his goals."

"It's a pity that Wen He didn't go south with him this time, otherwise Fengxiao and Wen He would have had some cordial exchanges."

As for the reason why Jia Xu did not go south, Li Ji said it without going into details.

Jia Xu, an old and cunning man who was a slippery man, knew that following Li Ji would probably turn him into a tool. Naturally, he insisted on staying in Wu County to assist Liu Bei and support Li Ji at any time and refused to go south with the army.

Guo Jia, who is still just a teenager, obviously has not realized how sinister society is, especially the mature top counselors like Li Ji and Jia Xu who have almost 180 thoughts in every word and deed. Guo Jia couldn't help but feel a little moved when Li Ji told him and Jia Xu's thinking habits with confidence.

Just like the fighting style of a military general, if Guan Yu cannot kill the enemy in the first battle, he will not be able to kill him in another battle.

The counselor's own thinking habits are actually a very important secret, but Li Ji said it directly as if facing someone he trusted. The feeling of sincerity for sincerity made Guo Jia hesitate for a moment before answering directly. road.

"Think from the enemy's perspective, and then look for flaws from your own perspective... Generally speaking, this is the thinking habit below."

Li Ji couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard this.

Being able to develop this kind of thinking habit also shows from the side that Guo Jia undoubtedly has the ability to easily think from the enemy's standpoint.

On the contrary, this is very consistent with Guo Jia's previous idea of ​​"predicting the enemy first" to crack the "four red waters". Perhaps this itself is Guo Jia's thinking habit.

'Filial piety is sincerity and there is nothing to hide...'

Li Ji compared it secretly and found that Guo Jia had most likely not concealed anything.

Immediately, Li Ji continued to speak.

"There is no absolute distinction between good and bad thinking habits, but Fengxiao may have been too blindly considering the enemy's goals, but he has ignored some details."

"Now, you and I both feel that the three thousand mountains are just a lure, or a test, or a lure, or a diversion, but the focus of the target is definitely inseparable from Fuchun Mountain."

“Let’s leave aside the details of how those three thousand Shanyue entered Qiantang County, but only by occupying Fuchun Mountain can Shanyue have a real passage that can directly enter the southern part of Wu County by drilling out of the large deep mountains and old forests farther south in Wu County. "

"But, what are Shangyue's habits?"

Li Ji asked suddenly, and Guo Jia blurted out.

"plunder!"

"Of course."

Li Ji said in a deep voice.

"No matter how many Shanyue people are watching Fuchun Mountain with eager eyes, one thing will not change, that is, the Shanyue people will only plunder the Han people and quickly retreat into the jungle."

Perhaps from the perspective of later generations, the Han people have been plundered by foreign races for generations and appear extremely weak.

However, the real reality is that those foreign races are undoubtedly weak, while the Han people are the strong ones in the true sense, so they have always occupied the most fertile land, driving the foreign races who have difficulty in filling their stomachs into a harsh environment where it is difficult to survive. .

This point is particularly obvious in the Han Dynasty. The "Dinghu Stele" established by Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty directly states that "everywhere the sun and the moon shine, and where the rivers go, are all Han soil."

This sentence can be said to be legal. It directly forcibly defines all places that can be cultivated as Han soil "since ancient times".

As a result, the Han Dynasty formed a martial spirit of always killing outsiders regardless of internal strife.

Therefore, it is not that the Shanyue people only know how to plunder and cannot occupy a place, but they really dare not.

Sneaking and taking advantage is a must for Shanyue people who are full and hungry.

However, the Shanyue people absolutely did not have the confidence to seize the land of the Han Dynasty openly and openly. This violated the political correctness of the consensus reached from top to bottom in the Han Dynasty.

Even today, even with the money he earned from selling his official position, facing the Qiang rebellion, he did not hesitate to spend money and food to send heavy troops to quell it. One can imagine the bottom line of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty.

Civil strife can be tolerated for a while, but with the invasion of foreign tribes, Emperor Han Ling couldn't even have fun playing with beauties.

After being reminded by Li Ji, Guo Jia suddenly realized where his previous blind spot was.

Guo Jia had previously blindly based on the goal of the three thousand Shanyue people acting like this, and then concluded that the Shanyue people's purpose was probably Fuchun Mountain, which seemed to be as stable as Mount Tai and had little effect.

But once we further analyze the known behavior patterns of the Shanyue people, we suddenly understand the contradictions.

Since the Shanyue people had no confidence to occupy the land of the Han Dynasty, it seemed useless to attack Fuchun Mountain head-on.

This is like deciding to attack the government treasury head-on in order to steal a small amount of money.

If you really want to plunder and leave, it would be wise not to confront the Han army head-on, let alone the Shanyue people trying to storm the heavily guarded Fuchun Mountain.

Under this inspiration, Guo Jia only felt that the place that had seemed like a fog before was suddenly enlightened and murmured.

"And if there really is a passage that can be concealed from the government and allow Shanyue people to bypass Fuchun Mountain and enter the prosperous areas of Qiantang County to plunder, then there will be no need to attack Fuchun Mountain..."

"In this case, that means there is absolutely no such passage..."

"Or it can be judged based on this that the mountain peak came from Kuaiji County via the road, so only a small group of mountain peak entered Qiantang County."
