Technology dominates the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 264 [Siege and Attack]

Jingzhou, Guiyang County, outside Zhenyang County.

Now the outside of the city has been surrounded by the army led by Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and Xi Zhicai.

The [-] to [-] refugees who originally gathered outside the city and those infected with sentimentality among them have been taken to other places for resettlement.

But those who are infected will be treated in isolation.

Regardless of whether they died of starvation or disease, all corpses will be buried deep with quicklime.

Not everyone who gets sad can be cured, and Hua Tuo, who is seriously ill, can't do anything.

Nearly 7000 out of 2000 people are infected with the disease, and the situation is serious.

In order to accommodate these people, tents and porridge sheds are naturally indispensable.

And the porridge here is very special because there are a lot of sweet potatoes in it.

"I heard that this is something called sweet potato, which grows in Jiaozhou."

"I heard from them that every family in Jiaozhou has food."

"I've never eaten it before. It's very sweet and delicious than rice. I really envy people in Jiaozhou."

People who eat sweet potatoes for the first time are all applauded.

Many people came up with the idea of ​​going to Jiaozhou, because they heard a lot of benefits of Jiaozhou from the medical team, and everyone was starving to death, so they were very envious of it.

And the other side.

"How long will we besiege the city?"

In the big tent of the military camp outside the city, Gao Shun asked Zhang Liao.They have been besieging Zhenyang City for two days, but they just besieged and did not attack.

Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, and Xi Zhicai are enjoying the freshly baked sweet potatoes.

Xi Zhicai smiled slightly, took a bite of the roasted sweet potato, and said, "General Gao, don't worry, the most urgent thing right now is to wait for the resettlement of thousands of refugees and control the sadness."

"The thieves and bandits in the city must be encircled and suppressed, but there should be no rush. This is what the general said."

"If General Gao is in a hurry, he can continue calling for the bandits in the city to open the city and surrender. Maybe it will happen at any time."

Now that there is no need to worry about food and grass, besieging the city is the best policy.

"If they could surrender, they would have surrendered a long time ago. I'm afraid there is enough food and grass in the city, and we are facing the threat of sadness outside. They want to consume us."

Although Gao Shun is not good at talking, he is not a reckless person, and has his own thoughts in his heart.

At this time, Zhang Liao looked at Xi Zhicai and asked, "I think Zhicai has a plan in mind, why don't you tell me about it."

Xi Zhicai is already familiar with Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and the others, so the address is very casual.

"According to the information obtained now, there are two major gangs of bandits in Guiyang County, headed by Xiao Nan and Su Yue."

"Xiao Nan has already occupied several counties in the north of Guiyang County, and Su Yue has also occupied several counties in the south of Guiyang County. Zhenyang City is a city that Su Yue occupied, and there are two to 3000 defenders in the city."

"It's easy to attack hard. However, I have an idea once and for all."

As soon as he heard that there was a solution, Zhang Liao asked urgently, "Tell me quickly."

"Don't worry, general. My idea is to use the small fish to catch the big fish. Let them send people out to ask for help. Su Yue's main force is in Qujiang City. If he hears the news, he will definitely come for reinforcements."

"At that time, as long as the two generals ambush along the way, they will succeed and solve Su Yue at once."

"In this way, the six counties in the south of Guiyang County don't need to be captured one by one."

Zhang Liao and Gao Shun thought about it, and Gao Shun said first, "That's right, it's a good idea."

"I don't know what kind of person this Su Yue is, will he be fooled by then?" Zhang Liao was worried.

However, Xi Zhicai smiled and said, "It's better to come, and it won't hurt us if we don't come. Anyway, it's just a siege now, and this method is just one more choice."

"What Zhicai said is true!"

Hearing what Xi Zhicai said, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun suddenly realized.

At the same time, in Shi'an City in Lingling County, Hao Meng and Guo Jia led [-] troops and began to besiege the city today.

At this time, outside the city, Hao Meng sent someone to shout at the gate of the tower:
"Listen, people on the tower, we are here to save the people here, not only that, but we have also brought a healer who can heal the sorrow."

"In addition, we brought a lot of food, you can eat it when you come out. If you don't believe me, you can look at the people outside the city. Now their diseases are being treated, and they have food to eat when they are hungry!"

"As long as you open the city, all the sick people can be rescued. If you dare to resist, you will only have a dead end!"

…………

Several people shouted in turn, without stopping for a moment.

A team of doctors and thousands of soldiers led by Zhang Bozu and Zhang Zhongjing, who arrived here a few days earlier, are resettling tens of thousands of refugees.

The population of Lingling County is over one million, almost catching up with the population of Jiaozhou.

The population of Guiyang County is only half of that of Lingling County, and it is sad that the outbreak in Lingling County is more serious here.

So far, there are more than 150 million people in Lingling County and Guiyang County.Now because of the riots of bandits everywhere, and the outbreak of sadness.

More than 40 people have died, nearly a third.Half of the people died of war, and half of them died of sadness.

It shows that the harm caused by sadness is devastating!

"What's the use of shouting like this?... It's better for us to attack the city directly. There are only bandits in the city, and it's not difficult to deal with them."

Song Xian rode a horse and lived between Hao Meng and Guo Jia.

"Wait, the siege equipment will arrive tomorrow." Hao Meng didn't intend to just besiege but not attack.

Although Lu Bu told him to take every step of the way, he also let him adapt to the situation.

The general is not accepted by the military orders abroad, and he has not fought for a long time, and his heart itch.

"General Hao, I have a plan, maybe the city of Shi'an can be destroyed without attack." At this time, Guo Jia said.

Hao Meng flinched a bit, and always had a feeling in her heart: every time she was going to do a big job, Guo Jia would always come up with a clever plan, which made her feel less fulfilled.

Guo Jia didn't immediately ask Guo Jia what strategy he had, but Song Xian admired Guo Jia's resourcefulness and asked, "Guo Canjun, what is the strategy?"

Guo Jia looked at Hao Meng, and after being with him for a while, Guo Jia knew Hao Meng's character somewhat, and if Hao Meng didn't want to hear it, he wouldn't say anything.

Sensing Guo Jia's gaze, Hao Meng glanced at Song Xian and said, "Tell me."

"Actually, this is also a tentative idea." As he spoke, Guo Jia took out a piece of paper from his sleeve.

Then, Guo Jia said: "Si'an City is backed by mountains on both sides. We must first choose the high point. Then write a large number of persuasion letters and put them in the city."

"Tie the letter of surrender to the arrow and shoot it into the city?" Song Xian understood.

Hao Meng also understood, but disagreed: "No, this is not the same as sending arrows to the bandits in the city, and then using these arrows to attack our army. This method is not advisable."

Hao Meng was surprised and somewhat disappointed by Guo Jia's strategy, and thought: It is not always possible to come up with a clever plan.

Guo Jia on the side had already folded the paper in his hand into a "paper airplane".

This was taught by Lu Bu to Lu Lingqi before, and Guo Jia learned it when she was curious.
