Three Kingdoms: My Strategy Simulator

"no need."

Li Ji smiled and put the bamboo slip in his hand into a corner, then took a sip of tea slowly before continuing.

"The day of my wedding will be when the dust of this battle has settled..."

After a pause, Li Ji seemed to remember something and spoke.

"But if Fengxiao is interested, I can allow you to stay in Qiantang County temporarily and take charge of the overall situation for me. It just so happens that Fengxiao is the most familiar with Yiying's military affairs in the southern part of Wu County. With Fengxiao here, even if I leave, There won’t be any confusion.”

Hearing this, Guo Jia was first surprised by Li Ji's rather confident declaration, and then after hearing the words behind it, he was moved by Li Ji's respect and trust, but he still shook his head and said.

"Sir, your wedding is a big event. I would like to ask for a glass of water and wine at your wedding banquet to satisfy my two extra gluttons. Please help me, sir."

When Li Ji saw this, he didn't force it.

Moreover, Li Ji knew better that the reason for Guo Jia's refusal was definitely not for two glasses of water and wine. More importantly, he was afraid that Guo Jia prided himself on his lack of ability and it was not yet time to truly become an official.

Especially after getting along with each other for more than two months, the more Guo Jia got to know him, the more he discovered that Li Ji's knowledge could be described as "profound", and even the learned and rich people could not compare with it.

Not only did he memorize all the classics that Guo Jia knew, but he even expressed many ideas and concepts that Guo Jia had never heard of in the past.

Previously, Xia Houlan was limited by his own abilities. Even if he heard about it occasionally, he only seemed to understand it, and couldn't understand its meaning.

But Guo Jia is obviously different. As a teenager, he not only has extraordinary talent, but also has not yet formed a solid thinking concept. He is extremely receptive to many novel ideas.

Therefore, the more he got along with Li Ji, the more Guo Jia felt that he had benefited a lot, and the more he respected Li Ji.

Especially when Li Ji had nothing to do, he personally set up a sand table of "Four Crosses of Red Water" and performed the simulation with Guo Jia.

In this regard, Guo Jia was initially full of confidence, and it was not difficult to consciously crack it.

Unexpectedly, when you are really stuck in it, you will realize that it is not difficult to predict the enemy first once, but it is as difficult as climbing to the sky to predict the enemy first without making mistakes repeatedly.

After many attempts, Guo Jia's best result in the "Four Crossings of Red Water" sandbox was only slightly better than Guo Tu, but if he wanted to achieve what Li Ji said was comparable to Liu Hou Zhang Liang and other Tianzong There is still a long way to go in terms of talent level.

How can such a result satisfy the arrogant Guo Jia?

It is precisely because of this that the more Guo Jia gets along with Li Ji, the more humble he becomes in private and truly treats Li Ji as a teacher.

"In that case, then Fengxiao please follow me back to Wu County."

Li Ji responded, then took out a roll of bamboo slips prepared in advance from his sleeve and handed it to Guo Jia, saying. "Give this scroll of bamboo slips to Jinyi Division for execution."

"Yes."

Guo Jia didn't ask, and as Li Ji's personal book boy, Guo Jia was naturally very aware of the existence of Jin Yisi, and quickly went to contact Jin Yisi to implement it.

After Guo Jia contacted the Jinyi Division to deliver the order, he quickly completed a series of military affairs.

Li Ji took out the Go game and played it leisurely with Guo Jia, then asked. "Aren't Fengxiao curious about the order I gave to Jin Yisi?"

"If there is anything I should know, sir, I will let you know."

Guo Jia's face, which still looked quite immature, was obviously more calm at this moment than he had been in the past, and he replied calmly.

Li Ji didn't mean to hide it and said it bluntly.

"Without him, I'll just let Jin Yisi spread the news about my wedding in seven days."

Hearing this, Guo Jia held Bai Zi's finger for a moment, thought for a moment, and said.

"Sir, instead of concealing such things, he took the initiative to publicize it. Could it be that he wanted to use the 'empty city strategy' to appear mysterious and make Guo Yi and his like dare not take action?"

But almost as soon as he finished speaking, Guo Jia denied this possibility and said.

"It is important to pretend to be mysterious, and a wedding is a major event in life. If Mr. still stays in Qiantang County, he will become the laughing stock of the world's scholars. Guo Yi will definitely not be fooled, but will judge The gentleman must have left Qiantang County.”

"Or are you planning to do the opposite, and really plan to stay in Qiantang County on the wedding day, and then set an ambush for Guo Yi?"

Li Ji smiled and said. "Confusing the fake with the real, what Fengxiao said is a clever trick. You can try it if you have the chance."

After all, although three wives and four concubines were very common in this era, the main wife's wedding was still the top priority in every sense of the word.

Ordinary people would never think that Li Ji would not hesitate to give up the wedding, but instead use it as bait to lure his enemies into a trap.

"Then Guo Yi is probably as afraid of me as a tiger. If he wasn't completely sure that I had indeed left Qiantang County, he would not dare to act rashly."

Li Ji continued to place a piece on the chessboard, and then continued.

"However, as I just said, there were so many worries in this battle that it dragged on for more than two months. Although it only cost more money and food, and also took this opportunity to train troops in Fuchun Mountain, it was almost over. it's over."

"The reason why I took the initiative to publicize this news is that I planned to end this battle on my wedding day, so as to avoid large-scale bloodshed in Wu County on my wedding night, which would be somewhat unlucky." "But if I don't take the initiative. After all, Guo Yi has been hiding in Kuaiji County and not sending troops, so how can we end this war? "

While Guo Jia continued to play chess, he fell into deep thought.

Guo Jia could not be more clear about the current situation of the troops Li Ji could use.

The Jinyisi continued to infiltrate Kuaiji County, and even a small number of Jinyisi had infiltrated the Kuaiji County army in the name of Xiangyong.

Therefore, through the information from the Jinyi Division, Guo Jia is quite clear about the current strength of the troops under his command in Kuaiji County.

There are more than 25,000, and a large number of small boats have been built for crossing the Qiantang River.

In this way, how can the opponent be stopped by the troops stationed in Qiantang County alone.

There is no need for any cunning strategy. As long as the troops of Kuaiji County are divided into multiple routes and cross the Qiantang River from different directions at the same time, then the lack of troops in Qiantang County will be unable to stop and intercept them.

In the past two months, Li Ji has been committed to ensuring that the war will not interfere with the normal life of the people in southern Wu County and "relief for work". Once the troops of Kuaiji County successfully cross the river, the stability that Li Ji has worked hard to maintain will be It will fall apart.

"Could it be that Sir has secretly prepared a surprise force?" Guo Jia asked tentatively.

"Wu County is just a small place, where do you get so many troops?"

Li Ji denied this statement, but did not directly answer Guo Jia's intention. He just said something meaningful.

"The two months of stalemate are not just to prepare ships for Kuaiji County that can allow the entire army to cross the river. In fact, I have been making preparations in a hurry."

Afterwards, Li Ji stayed in Qiantang County for a few more days, and went in and out of Qiantang County many times to inspect beacon towers along the coast, making frequent adjustments to the garrison along the coast.

Then, Li Ji left Qiantang County under the escort of a hundred cavalry led by Zhao Yun in a way that was not high-profile but would be discovered by interested people.

This series of actions has left Guo Jia puzzled.

Li Ji pretended to be cautious while inspecting the beacon tower and adjusting the garrison. Knowing the purpose in advance, Guo Jia naturally understood that it was Li Ji's play to lure Guo Yi into being fooled.

But the most important point is that even if he wanted to set up an ambush, Li Ji did not have enough troops at all.

Under such circumstances, taking the initiative to lure the other party is no different from luring a wolf into the house.

……

Naturally, it was impossible to hide the happy event that was gradually stirring up excitement throughout Wu County from Guo Yi, who was always paying attention to the internal trends in Wu County.

However, even though Guo Yi had received the exact reward from the spies, he still subconsciously felt that there was a fraud and that the wedding was all just to deceive him.

On the contrary, Xu You was ecstatic after learning about it!
Xu You had also heard about the marriage between Li Ji and Cai Zhaoji early on, and knew that the matter had been decided at the beginning of the year and was by no means a temporary fabrication.

"The time has come! God help me!!!"

Xu You, who had suppressed him for more than two months, couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Sir, do you think this is true?" Guo Yi asked.

"Of course it's true! Then Li Ji has definitely left Qiantang County and returned to Wu County to prepare for the wedding." Xu You replied affirmatively.

"Then Li Ji is extremely treacherous. Could it be... that he was deceitful?" Guo Yi asked melancholy.

"will not!"

Xu You said decisively.

"Your Excellency, you don't know. The talented Cai Zhaoji is the eldest daughter of the great scholar Cai Yong. She was previously married to Wei Zhongdao in Hedong. However, when Cai Zhaoji was on the road, Wei Zhongdao had already died of illness early. Therefore, it was rumored by everyone. Cai Zhaoji is unknown."

"Therefore, if Li Zikun ignored Cai Zhaoji and stayed in Qiantang County on the wedding day, then Cai Zhaoji would probably die of shame and anger, and would not be able to see the world again."

"Moreover, the great scholar Cai Yong is still the head of the Rende Academy. Once Li Zikun abandons the wedding and ignores it, what will happen to his face? Even if Cai Zhaoji does not die, Cai Yong will definitely leave Wu County with his daughter in anger, and in this way Li Zikun will offend countless scholars."

"Therefore, Li Zikun was not deceitful, but had to return to Wuxian County to get married! For Lord Fu, this was not a God-given opportunity, but it was God who helped Lord Fu succeed in finding such a good opportunity to cross the Qiantang River. "

Under Xu You's well-founded analysis, Guo Yi also understood that Li Ji definitely needed to return to Wu County.

And once Li Ji is no longer in Qiantang County, then... Guo Yi suddenly feels that he can do it again!
With more than 25,000 troops in hand, it only took a moment for him to cross the Qiantang River.

"Good good!"

Guo Yi praised him repeatedly, feeling that his two months of hard work would finally pay off.

Without Li Zikun here, who can stop him?
"Then...it seems necessary for me to give Li Ji a gift on his wedding day!" Guo Yi said with a sneer. (End of chapter)
