128. [125] Rebellion
Hearing that Shen Xian ran to Nanyang Lang alone, Sun Ce's whole body was angry, Zhou Yu just wanted to comfort him and let him stop arguing with Shen Xian, and then he heard Sun Ce say angrily: "How can this be!" She doesn't even take me! Let's talk about it together! ”
Zhou Yu: "...... worried about you, I must have my brain caught in the door."
Sun Ce kept chattering beside Zhou Yu until he said that Zhou Yu was impatient and waved his hand to drive him away: "If you want to go, go quickly!" ”
"Okay!" Sun Ce was overjoyed, his brothers patted Zhou Yu's shoulder well, and said quickly: "I'll leave it to you here, Gongjin, take care, I'm going to save the third sister!" ”
By the time Zhou Yu reacted, Sun Ce was gone.
Zhou Yu looked confused.
Sun Ce happily ordered 10,000 horses and rumbled through Jiangxia to Nanjun to meet Guo Jia.
As soon as he entered the boundary of Nanjun, Sun Ce met the messenger sent by Guo Jia to deliver a letter to Zhou Yu.
Mrs. Cai wrote in the letter suddenly made a difficult decision to arrest Jia Xu, Guo Jia said that the plan had changed, and she couldn't wait for Nanyang to lose both sides, and took advantage of the fact that the Cai family was going to purge Liu Qi's forces in the near future, and they wanted to send troops to muddy the water in Nanyang and fight a blitzkrieg that caught them off guard. Therefore, Guo Jia asked Zhou Yu to send troops from Jiangxia, firstly, to deal with the soldiers and horses on the southern side of the county, and secondly, to prevent the turmoil in Runan.
Sun Ce counted with his fingers, he found that he had brought 10,000 horses from Jiangxia when he left, and now Jiangxia still had 15,000 left, not only to guard against Runan, but also to divide troops to help Nanjun...... It's a bit difficult, isn't it?
Sun Ce subconsciously put the letter in his arms and wanted to destroy the corpse, but after receiving Si Liwei's condemning gaze, he coughed and reluctantly handed over the letter: "Go and give it to Gongjin, be quick." ”
Si Liwei thought to himself, if you hadn't stopped me here and nagged for a long time, I would have been able to go to Jiangxia today, okay!
Perhaps feeling Si Liwei's resentment, Sun Ce proudly straightened his chest: "It doesn't matter if you send it or not, what are you afraid of with me?" ”
Two days later, Guo Jia, who was waiting for Zhou Yu's reply, waited for someone he didn't want to see at this moment.
Sun Ce carried a horsewhip in one hand and smiled brightly at Guo Jia: "Yo, Fengxiao, don't come to harm, where did you get my sister?" ”
Guo Jia smiled coldly: "I still want to ask you, why did the lord write to say that she had already made an appointment with you to attack Nanyang in advance, so let's not worry?" ”
Sun Ce was choked, and he suddenly remembered that there was indeed such a thing, although it had been nipped in the bud by Zhou Yu.
So Sun Ce decisively changed the topic: "Let's discuss when to send troops!" How's that, do you guys have a plan? ”
Guo Jia glanced at Sun Ce deeply, and he instructed the general at the door: "Go and call Ziyi." ”
Sun Ce pretended to be curious and walked around Guo Jia's study, showing that he didn't want to talk to Guo Jia at the moment.
This move was exactly what Guo Jia meant, he breathed a sigh of relief, and silently thought: I have passed the first day safely.
Looking at Sun Ce's tall back, Guo Jia clenched his fists, he must not let Sun Ce know that Shen Xian was pregnant, otherwise Sun Ce's violent temper would definitely blow up immediately, don't care who the child's father is, first make the people around him angry, and then lead the troops to rush into Xiangyang City in minutes, and then it will be chaotic at that time.
It didn't take long for Tai Shici to come, and he was very happy to see Sun Ce, and the two of them chatted briefly about the recent situation and then took the initiative to end the topic and turn to Guo Jia.
"You didn't make it clear in your letter before," Sun Ce asked again, "Do you have any plans?" ”
Guo Jia's tone was a little hesitant to see it: "Yes, yes, but it happened suddenly, and our plans were disrupted......
Shen Xian used to prepare with two hands: she took Jia Xu and Diao Chan to sneak into the city to prepare to provoke the civil strife between Liu Cong and Liu Biao, and take the opportunity to make Nanyang engage in internal division and turmoil, and then it would be much easier to make a move; If the provocative plan fails, then fight a protracted war, unite Zhang Xiu and Sun Ce to cut off the supply line, and gradually besiege Xiangyang, so that they have to surrender after running out of ammunition and food.
But the premise is that Shen Xian has enough time, Liu Biao's serious illness and Mrs. Cai's sudden attack disrupted all her steps.
Cai Mao will one day find out that Jia Xu is Shen Xian's person, plus Nanyang blockades Shen Xian and can't get out of the city, if she doesn't take Xiangyang, not only will she not be able to save Jia Xu, once Cai Mao starts to search for their whereabouts in the whole city, Shen Xian can't even guarantee her own life.
There is also a very embarrassing point - if Nanyang can hold on for a while, will Shen Xian have to give birth to the child here?
Sun Ce became stern: "How many people do we have in Xiangyang City?" ”
"Plus the lord is only thirty-five," Guo Jia sighed slightly: "After Liu Jingsheng only left Nanyang, the investigation of Xiangyang City has been much stricter, and many of the dense piles we sent out before have been cleaned, and there are only so many left." ”
Sun Ce: "......"
Sun Ce closed his eyes, and he looked at Guo Jia very sincerely: "I think the third sister is really powerful, thirty-five people want to surround the entire Xiangyang City." ”
Back then, Lao Tzu's father took 10,000 people and folded them outside Xiangyang City, okay! The flooding and fire attacks are all used, and there is no problem at all! Xiangyang City is an iron bucket! Liu Shangyu, are you a fairy, and you can break the city wall with a wave of your hand?
Sun Ce almost didn't roar, he clenched his hands into fists, and spun back and forth in the study irritably.
Before, Sun Ce thought that there were hundreds of people lurking around Shen Xian, although there were not many, but he could still take them out to fight, plus Shen Xian himself was quite powerful, so he was not very worried about Shen Xian's safety.
And yet now......
You go to heaven, third sister! Sun Ce sincerely wanted to say this to Shen Xian.
"Actually, it's not as difficult as you think," Guo Jia was silent for a while and said: "With the skills of the lord and Miss Ren, hiding in Xiangyang City is like a drop of water flowing into the sea, as long as they want to, they will not be found." ”
Tai Shi Ci looked up at Guo Jia suddenly, and he suddenly felt that Guo Jia's words were so false, as if he was comforting himself.
In fact, Guo Jia was indeed lying, if it was before, he could still let Shen Xian wander around alone, but after learning that Shen Xian was pregnant, he really had no way to rest assured that Shen Xian would stay in the enemy's nest for too long with a bun.
In case Shen Xian is really arrested, it will be two lives, the current boss and the future boss of Yizhou are all held in the palm of someone else's hand, will they save it?
Sun Ce sneered: "Why do I think you don't believe this at all." ”
Guo Jia said lightly: "Yesterday, the lord came back with a message, saying that when she rescues Wenhe, she can send troops here." ”
"I can't wait that long," Sun Ce suddenly felt an inexplicable irritability in his heart, he stopped turning in circles and stared at Guo Jia coldly: "How long have you let the third sister fall in the city?" I'm going to save her right now. ”
Tai Shi Ci stopped Sun Ce: "Wait, Bo Fu, what should you do with such a lord?" She's all planned! ”
"Didn't you say you didn't have a plan!" Sun Ce brushed aside Tai Shici's hand.
"There is one," Guo Jia took out a neatly folded cloth from under the layers of bamboo slips and slowly unfolded it: "Xiangyang City has strong walls, strong guards, easy to defend and difficult to attack, I believe you have already experienced it, but Zhang Ziqiao sent a map out......"
Sun Ce leaned over with a cold face, and his gaze fell on the cloth.
It was a beautifully drawn map detailing every building in Xiangyang City, with a few dotted lines that twisted across the city.
"Send elite soldiers to sneak into the city through the waterway, assassinate the defenders of the city at night, and then secretly open the city gate, and the army in ambush around takes the opportunity to attack." Guo Jia said in a low voice: "But this move is quite risky, Liu Jingsheng's soldiers and horses are basically all deployed in the south of Xiangyang to guard against us, maybe we should let Weiyou and them march from Fang Ling, with a knife in the back, and we will assist from the side." ”
"No need, since you already have a plan, then I will carry it out." Sun Ce looked at Guo Jia: "How many people do you need?" I'm going to pick? ”
"Thirty to fifty," Tai Shici took over: "No matter how many there are, it will be easy to be discovered, but it is not safe if there are too few people, and once they are exposed, they will be sent to death......"
"As long as you can deal with the soldiers and horses surrounding the city, what do I have to fear?" Sun Ce said indifferently: "Just decide." ”
"I want you to think about it again," Guo Jia said, "The lord won't want to see you put yourself in danger." ”
Sun Ce raised his eyebrows: "She herself is in Xiangyang City, so what qualifications does she have to say about me?" ”
Guo Jia was choked by Sun Ce for the first time and was speechless.
Sun Ce waved his hand: "Don't worry, the third sister can enter safely, and I am the same, you just need to pick a time to act." ”
"Is it just us acting?" Tai Shici looked at Guo Jia worriedly: "Do you want to write a letter to Hanzhong?" And Gong Jin there......"
"No, Hanzhong is monitoring Nanyang's every move all the time, once we fight first, Gongda will judge when to send troops to help," Guo Jia shook his head: "As for Gongjin-"
"He stared at Runan, it's enough to have us here." Sun Ce interrupted Guo Jia's words: "There is no need to wait for his reply. ”
Tai Shici peeked at Guo Jia and saw that he had no objection, so he had to nod: "Okay, then I'll arrange it." ”
Sun Ce went to his army to pick out the elites who accompanied him to carry out attacks, Guo Jia stayed alone in the study and looked at the map of Xiangyang and pondered, he slowly opened his palm, which had been clenching his fists, and his palms were covered with fine beads of sweat.
Guo Jia's heartbeat could be clearly heard in the silent study.
This was the most hasty decision Guo Jia made to send troops, there was no careful planning, no unanimous discussion among the strategists, and even Shen Xian did not inform her, it was completely improvised by Guo Jia and Sun Ce.
Are there any vulnerabilities? There must be; How sure is it to succeed? I don't know.
This is crazy, Guo Jia thought silently, how could he be so messy with Sun Ce?
Guo Jia subconsciously clenched the warm phoenix pendant in his arms, and after a long time, he laughed in a low voice.
Lord, it's all because of you.
Shen Xian, who was in Xiangyang City, didn't know that her eldest brother and her man had joined forces to trap her, and she was still thinking about when to kill the defenders of Xiangyang City and let her own army in.
Two days ago, Shen Xian put forward this idea in a letter to Guo Jia, and after Diao Chan rescued Jia Xu, she could sneak into the city tower with Diao Chan, one was responsible for killing people, and the other was responsible for opening the door.
But Guo Jia's reply hasn't come yet, he doesn't send troops as a backing, and Shen Xian can't be a lone hero alone.
