Three Kingdoms: My Strategy Simulator

In the unprotected terrain, and the infantry had just landed and had not formed a military formation, facing the cavalry, the result was self-evident.

Li Ji just grilled skewers for a while. When Guo Yi had already retreated first, the battle situation in Jiangtan was already decided.

After the morale of the many soldiers who were blocked by the Qiantang River was completely destroyed, Zhao Yun gave an angry shout and abandoned their weapons and surrendered one after another.

In addition, there are still many ships crowded on this river beach with no chance to retreat.

Li Ji squinted his eyes and estimated that the ships Guo Yi left here could probably carry more than 2,000 soldiers.

In other words, this is a heavy blow that makes Kuaiji County's already not wealthy ships even worse.

'The main purpose has been achieved, very good...'

A smile appeared at the corner of Li Ji's mouth, thinking secretly.

……

On the other side, Guo Yi led more than a thousand defeated troops to flee in panic. He held the iron helmet with an arrow inserted in his hand. In addition to the anger that nearly killed him, there was more fear in his heart.

The more I think about it...the more I am afraid...

Li Ji seemed to have anticipated everything in advance, and even deliberately stood in the light of the fire to lead him to talk, and then let the marksman find his position in the vast darkness.

'Fortunately the wind in the river is very strong, otherwise my life would have been over...'

Guo Yi touched his neck and felt not warmth, but a chill full of fear.

As a result, until now, Guo Yi had not had time to consider the specific losses. It was not until the ship docked on the other side that Guo Yi's tense heart completely relaxed.

When Xu You saw Guo Yi returning with more than a thousand remnant soldiers who had no morale, he felt something bad in his heart and hurriedly approached him and asked.

"Lord Fu Jun, could something happen?"

It was okay not to ask, but once he asked, it completely aroused Guo Yi's anger and shouted angrily. "Left and right, pull this incompetent person down and kill him!"

As soon as these words came out, Xu You was stunned and his face turned pale.

Before the wolf-like guard came forward to hold Xu You down, Xu You hurriedly shouted loudly.

"Lord Fujun, even if this battle is unfavorable, it is not my fault. Why did it happen? It would be no pity for Lord Fujun to kill me Xu You today, but I am afraid that from now on, all the scholars in the world will avoid Lord Fufu like a snake and a scorpion!"

These words also made Guo Yi, who was originally angry at Xu You, calm down a little and shouted.

"If you weren't Li Zikun's internal correspondent, why would Li Zikun know that my Lord is leading his troops to cross the river here tonight, and even set up a half-crossing cavalry to attack it in advance? If not for my Lord's calmness in the face of danger, he would command his soldiers. How can we survive to return to Kuaiji County by fighting our way out?"

"what?!"

Although Xu You had already guessed about this result, he still couldn't help being shocked when he actually heard it from Guo Yi's mouth.

Doesn’t Xu You himself know whether Xu You secretly hooked up with Li Ji?

Even Xu You seemed to be moved by Guo Yi's property and offered advice, but in fact Xu You was originally following Yuan Shao's orders to disrupt the development of Wu County.

In this regard, Xu You and Guo Yi had the same purpose to some extent, so how could they secretly inform Li Ji.

'Could it be that Li Zikun saw through my plan early on? '

This incredible thought emerged in Xu You's mind, but he didn't have time to delve into it and quickly defended himself.

"If you are really Li Zikun's internal agent and have already taken the opportunity to escape, why would you stay here to welcome the prince back? I ask the prince to be aware of this and not to believe Li Zikun's words of alienation."

This simple and direct truth convinced Guo Yi.

However, if Xu You is really not an insider, then it seems that the only result is that every action of Kuaiji County was within Li Zikun's expectations.

"Li Ji, are you really so smart that you are almost a monster?"

Guo Yi couldn't help but show fear in his tone.

Hearing this, Xu You secretly breathed a sigh of relief, understanding that his suspicions had been cleared for the time being, but he was undoubtedly facing more difficult problems now.

Why did the seemingly foolproof cross-river raid end up in such a hasty escape?

Wu County and Kuaiji County are neighbors to each other, and the accents or living habits of the people on both sides are almost the same. This also led Kuaiji County to send many spies to Wu County early when it deliberately targeted Wu County.

Therefore, if Liu Bei sent reinforcements to Li Ji, or if there was any large-scale troop mobilization in Qiantang County, it would be difficult to completely hide it.

The spies who have been deployed to Wu County recently have not reported any large-scale troop mobilization near Qiantang County. Even if they want to ambush Guo Yi, where will the troops come from?

Guo Yi, who gradually regained his composure, took Xu You back to the tent, and then recounted the incident in detail.

Of course, Guo Yi's own performance has been slightly beautified. Of course, Guo Yi couldn't say that he said a harsh word a hundred and twenty steps away, and then almost got shot in the head with an arrow. He was so frightened that he ran away in a panic, not even caring about the soldiers who were struggling to get up and down by the river beach. On.

However, Guo Yi's performance was not the focus. The focus was on the cavalry who ambush in advance and Li Ji who appeared on the beacon tower, which is enough to show that Li Ji had already prepared for the time and place of Guo Yi's sneak crossing of the Qiantang River.

This made Xu You, who had always been dissatisfied with Li Jiduo and was trying to avenge his shame, feel a little frightened.

'Impossible, impossible. Even if Li Zikun is great at deductions on the sand table, how could actual combat be so terrifying? He's just a young boy who has reached his prime...'

'Generally speaking, the news was leaked due to the secrecy. There were also spies from Li Zikun in the army, who let Li Zikun know about it in advance, and then he just transferred Zhao Yun's cavalry back from Fuchun Mountain in advance. '

'It's just a coincidence, it's just a coincidence...'

Although Xu You knew that the possibility of such a coincidence was extremely low, Xu You could only convince himself in this way, otherwise wouldn't Xu You's use of wisdom in front of Li Ji become a joke?
After a long-term plan, various illusions were laid, and then he jumped into the hole Li Zikun had dug in advance.

Immediately, Xu You explained to Guo Yi on the grounds that "there are internal officials from Wu County hidden in the army."

Xu You himself couldn't fully believe this reason, but Guo Yi suddenly realized it and felt that everything could be explained in this way.

It happened that Li Ji mobilized the cavalry from Fuchun Mountain and returned to Qiantang County. It happened that the internal intelligence in the army passed the news on, and it happened that Li Ji responded in time after receiving the intelligence from the internal intelligence...

Guo Yi summed it up and felt that this "just right" seemed a bit too much.

For a moment, this made Guo Yi and Xu You unconsciously silent.

After a while, Guo Yi whispered. "Sir, do you think it would be a good idea to withdraw the troops at this point?"

? ?
Xu You.

Is it a ploy to run away without sacrificing one's body?
But when things came to a close, how could Xu You allow Guo Yi to back down, he said immediately.

"Master Fu, why are you worried? Don't forget that there are still a large number of Shanyue in Fuchun Mountain who are attacking Fuchun Mountain. Even if they fail to cross the Qiantang River this time, the advantage still lies with Master Fu. Even if Li Zikun is good at such conspiracies, How can we change the situation?”

"Your Excellency, you can sit back and watch the changes in the situation. Wait for Shanyue to capture Fuchun Mountain and then wait for the opportunity to move. We are already in an invincible position, so why retreat?"

"And now the Lord of Fu has become an enemy of Liu Bei. If he shows weakness this time, Liu Xuande will use the righteousness of 'provincial governor' to impose more restrictions on Lord Fu, and even secretly seize the real power of Kuaiji County."

"When Mr. Fu loses his real power, Liu Xuande will be the swordsman and Mr. Fu will be the flesh and blood. Now, life and death depend on Mr. Fu's thoughts. I am a famous person in Nanyang. At worst, I will hide back in Nanyang and stay behind closed doors. , But is it possible that Lord Fu wants to abandon his official position and run away?"

These four words "abandoned his official position and fled" undoubtedly deeply stimulated Guo Yi.

Moreover, Guo Yi completely understood what Xu You meant!
The matter has come to this, and Liu Bei has become his enemy. There is no point in retreating anymore!

Once he retreats, I am afraid that before Guo Yi can find a way to change places and continue to be the county guard through his relationship with the Shichangshi, Guo Yi will probably be reduced to a fish to be slaughtered in advance.

"Please sir, please give me some advice." Guo Yi quickly asked Xu You seriously.

"As I said just now, the advantage still lies with Lord Fu, so why worry about it?"

Xu You said something confidently first to set the tone, and then continued.

"Now what the Lord Fu should do is to strongly support Shanyue with money and food. In addition to continuing to promise the benefits after Shanyue invades Wu County, the Lord Fu should find a way to collect and build a ferry."

"Ferry?" Guo Yi was a little unable to react.

"Yes."

Xu You nodded and said. "Then Li Zikun's plan is just to deceive our army's limited number of ferries, and the number of troops it can carry at one time is similar to that."

"If our army has enough ferries, an army of 20,000 people can march across the river in a mighty manner. What's the use of beacon towers or ambushes? This can be said to be overwhelming. Even if Li Zikun is good at conspiracy, there is nothing he can do. Defeat is inevitable.”

When Guo Yi heard this, he felt that the gloom in his heart was swept away, and he even praised it.

"Good! Great good! Wujun's cavalry is only a thousand. If they want to stop my army of 20,000, what's the difference between using a mantis' arm as a chariot?"

"Exactly this!"

Xu You became more and more confident as he spoke, feeling that he had just entered a dead end.

Why bother to scheme like that with Li Jibi? You can completely crush him with your superior strength.

"Your Excellency Fu Jun happened to take advantage of Shan Yue's attack on Fuchun Mountain to collect and build many ships. Just waiting for the opportunity of Shan Yue to capture Fuchun Mountain, Fu Jun will send his troops across the river to decide in a battle."

"it is good!"

Guo Yi had a smile on his face and nodded repeatedly.

As for whether Kuaiji County considered crossing the river before collecting and building a large number of ships, Guo Yi and Xu You both remained silent in tacit agreement.

Even though Guo Yi and Xu You didn't want to admit it, Li Ji undoubtedly cast a considerable shadow on them. (End of chapter)
