Volume 2 Qingzhou Zhipeng Section 34 The Great War is imminent

"Great, Hugh will look again. There are no heavy troops on the other side, and perhaps even Cai Anzhen has left. On the bank of the Weishui River, Guo Tu stroked his beard, and reminded Yuan Tan, who had been looking at the opposite bank, without raising his head.

From the moment he accompanied Guo Tu to play chess, Yuan Tan's mind was not on the chessboard. At this moment, when he heard Guo Tu's reminder, he couldn't help but turn his gaze from the camp on the other side back to the chessboard in front of him. Because he had been half-hearted before, the chess game in front of him was powerless for Yuan Tan. He had no intention of playing against Guo Tu anymore, so he casually threw away the chess pieces in his hand and gave up, "I lost." ”

"When it comes to the big match, it would be nice if you could have such a trade-off." Guo Tu glanced at the ugly chess game and said faintly.

"Does the rule mean that this time I lost?" Yuan Tan asked rhetorically with a little anger.

"It's a big loss." Guo Tu punned on his words.

"Hmph, the mansion is about to build a ship, but I never thought that I would kill Lu Fengxian in the middle of the road. It's really hateful," Yuan Tanmeng, who understood what Guo Tu meant, hammered the chess table and said unwillingly.

And Guo Tu saw that although Yuan Tan was unwilling, he also knew that for the sake of the overall situation of Qingzhou, the contradiction between him and Cai Ji was temporarily shelved. I thought to myself, although my big heart is narrower than that of the lord, but fortunately, I still know how to judge the situation and not be stupid enough to ignore the immediate crisis for my own selfish desires. Therefore, Guo Tu, who felt that Yuan Tan could still cultivate, patiently enlightened him, "Don't be impatient, this time is just a temporary disadvantage." The gains and losses of a corner of the game do not determine the outcome of the whole game. may dislike Cai Anzhen, but his actions are still worth learning. That is, don't care about the gains and losses of one moment, one place, and one trend. ”

"Don't care about the gains and losses of one time, one place, and one situation?" Yuan Tan lowered his head and reflected on Guo Tu's words.

And Guo Tu twisted his goat's whisker and sighed with deep feelings, "The old man once thought that Cai Anzhen was cunning and cunning. However, after this battle, I found that this woman has a very large pattern and an accurate grasp of the situation. Of course, this may also be the result of Guo Fengxiao's assistance. But in any case, Cai Anzhen's ability to be ruthless and break his wrist for the overall situation shows that his plans are very big. Great, you are not facing a cunning fox, but a fierce tiger. Therefore, in the future, Da Da in Qingzhou will not only have to guard against Cai Anzhen, but also need to be cautious, and must not be as reckless as this time. ”

Yuan Tan was still listening carefully to Guo Tu's explanation at first, but when he heard the last sentence, he couldn't help but be stunned and said, "What does the public rule mean by this?" Do you want to abandon Tan and leave? ”

"It's not that the old man wants to abandon the big one. Qingzhou is in chaos, and the lord is bound to recruit the old man back to Yecheng. Guo Tu smiled bitterly and waved his hand.

When Yuan Tan heard that Guo Tu might be the black cauldron, he couldn't help but hurriedly say, "How can this matter be strange." Humiliating Cai Anzhen and attacking the Donglai camp were all done by Tan alone. Tan then wrote to his father to explain the matter. ”

Rao is Guo Tu is old and calculating, and after listening to what Yuan Tan said at this moment, he can't help but feel hot in his heart. Yuan Tan's talent may be far inferior to his father Yuan Shao, but there is one thing that Yuan Tan is better than his Lao Tzu. That is, Yuan Tan is more affectionate, his love for those close to him and his hatred for his enemies are as clear as Jingshui and Weishui. This personality may cause him great trouble in his quest for supremacy, but it will also win him the loyalty of his subordinates. Therefore, Guo Tu, who heard what Yuan Tan said, immediately got up and made a deep bow to him.

"Is this done?" Yuan Tan hurriedly got up and helped Guo Tu up.

However, Guo Tu whispered to Yuan Tan at the short moment when the two were close, "The picture is willing to do a great job for dogs and horses." ”

Guo Tu's words are of far-reaching significance to Yuan Tan. Because nominally, Guo Tu is Yuan Shao's retainer, and he is only temporarily sent to Qingzhou to assist Yuan Tan. But his statement at this moment is undoubtedly swearing allegiance to Yuan Tan. can be assisted by his father's important advisers, and Yuan Tan will not understand the deep meaning behind this. Especially when my father loves his third brother far more than ever. Thinking of this, under the excitement, Yuan Tan didn't know how to respond.

However, Guo Tu didn't wait for Yuan Tan's reaction, as soon as he finished speaking, he simply took a step back, kept a distance from Yuan Tan and said, "Great, after the old man leaves this time, the lord will most likely send the Xin family to Qingzhou to assist the master." Xin commented on the good governance and could leave internal affairs to him to handle. Although he was young, he was good at strategy and could discuss foreign affairs with him. In addition, don't drive Liu Xiande to act badly, and don't entrust him with important tasks. ”

Tan Hui kept everything in mind. Do you really want to leave Qingzhou? Yuan Tan said reluctantly.

"It's a long time coming, maybe I can get together with the old man in Yecheng soon." After Guo Tu smiled and bowed his head, he said to Yuan Tan earnestly, "Remember, the current situation in Qingzhou is just five words: 'sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight'." Cai Anzhen won the victory, and Donglai crossed the water. Cai Anzhen was defeated, and he sent troops to Donglai. Don't be afraid of Lu Bu. If Lu Bu can defeat Donglai, his troops will inevitably suffer heavy casualties. Because this battle is a battle for Cai Anzhen."

Tong Hui, who was dressed in a bamboo cane, dressed in Confucian clothes, and had white hair and beard, stood at the head of the city in the face of a literati, looking solemnly at the more than 20,000 Lu Bu troops on the opposite side. And there were less than 2,000 soldiers guarding the city beside him. Although with the tall walls of Buqi City and the moats surrounding the city, Buqi's defenders had repelled several attacks by Lu Bu's army for ten consecutive days. But Tong Hui knew very well in his heart that relying on the superiority of ten to one troops, Lu Bu's army would soon be able to fill a bloody path on the moat, and the entire siege battle would fall into a more brutal fierce battle.

However, Rao is like this, Tong Hui, who is not a county commander, still straightens his waist and faces the strong enemy. This is not only because the city has tall walls, moats around the city, plenty of arrows, and warehouses full of grain and grass, but more importantly, Tong Hui firmly believes that Xiao Cai Fujun will definitely come to the rescue of the city. And all he had to do was to keep Lu Bu out of Donglai County before Xiao Cai Fujun rushed back to Donglai.

Boom...... Boom...... Boom...... The dull sound of war drums once again resounded in the sky, and at the same time, it also signaled that the next round of Lu Bu's attack was about to begin. The defenders at the head of the city, who had been resting earlier, rose from under the female wall and lined up. It is true that most of them are exhausted, but now that the drums of life have sounded, there is only one way before them - to kill the enemy

At the sound of earth-shattering drums, about 1,000 Lu Bujun armed with shields and dirt bags, shouted and rushed straight to the moat in front of the south gate of the city. There were nearly 100 corpses piled up there, as well as bags of earth soaked in blood and water. And this group of Lu Bujun is obviously here to contribute to this "bridge". Naturally, the defenders at the head of the city would not allow them to fill in a path in the moat. As the commander-in-chief, Tong Hui calmly calculated the effective range of the bow and arrow. 1,000 steps, 100 steps, 50 steps......

"Put"

With Tong Hui's order, the rain of arrows in the sky struck towards Lu Bujun's head. The pawn who rushed to the front fell to become part of the corpse bridge, while his comrades stepped on his corpse and continued to step forward, throwing bags of earth into the moat. In a short time, Lu Bujun filled out three corpse bridges with dozens of corpses and a large number of dirt bags. It seems that inspired by this achievement, the war drums in Lu Bu's army also became rapid. Immediately after that, three groups of teams carrying ladders on their shoulders emerged from the military formation and went straight to the south gate of Buqi City, followed by a team of wrestlers carrying the crashing wood.

"Put"

Ignoring the increasing number of corpses under his feet, Tong Huitie once again issued a cold order with a blushing face. As a result, another round of dense arrow rain fell on the head of Lu Bujun. However, the defenders of the city fought fiercely for several days, and after two volleys, the speed at which the archers pulled their bows was noticeably reduced. And Lu Bujun also took advantage of the weakening gap to speed up the pace.

Finally, the first ladder reached the city wall. However, before Lu Bujun could cheer, a piece of wood rolled down from the city, smashing the cloud ladder and the Lu Bujun who were about to climb below. It's a pity that a piece of wood can't stop the offensive of Lu Bu's army. After a while, two other ladders were also set up at the head of the city.

Seeing that Lu Bujun was about to enter the city for hand-to-hand combat, Tong Hui's subordinates hurriedly persuaded him, "This place is dangerous, please leave the south gate quickly."

"The south gate is not lost, how can the old man abandon everyone and flee, wouldn't this be to disturb the morale of the army." Tong Hui shook his head stubbornly.

"If the lord makes a mistake, the army's morale will be even more chaotic," the general was so anxious that he stomped his feet and said, "Come and help the lord downstairs." ”

Unexpectedly, just as Tong Hui was pulling with his generals, he suddenly heard someone in the city shouting, "The reinforcements are Xiao Cai Fujun's reinforcements"

As soon as Tong Hui and the others heard that reinforcements were coming, they all followed the prestige, only to see a group of men and horses suddenly appear on the left flank of Lu Bu's army array. Although there is still a certain distance from the city, the Cai Ziqi waving in the wind still inspires everyone in the city. Especially Tong Hui. The depression and anxiety that had been in place for days were released at this moment, making the old man, who had reached the age of sixty, like a young man with hot blood, and shouted loudly, "The reinforcements have arrived to kill"

The heartfelt shouts of "kill" the defenders once again enveloped the entire city, and at the same time announced the failure of LΓΌ Bu's army to attack the city on the tenth day.

However, although the city of Buqi resisted the offensive of Lu Bu's army on this day, the reinforcements outside the city did not break through the Lu Bu army formation and converge with the defenders in the city, but after disturbing the circle around Lu Bu's army, they turned around and left the battlefield. But Rao is like this, this team of Donglai reinforcements that suddenly appeared still caused a certain amount of psychological pressure on the besieging Lu Bu army. After all, Lu Bujun is fighting in a different place this time, and it will not be good if the other party cuts the back road and grain road. So, as soon as the night fell, Lu Bu summoned a cadre general to the big tent to discuss countermeasures.

"My lord, Cai Anzhen's department is now camped at the foot of Laoshan Mountain. The enemy who harasses us today is its vanguard. Zang Ba reported the news of the scout's discovery to Lu Buyu.

"Cai Anzhen personally led the troops back to Donglai? I didn't think that this girl was also a little bold. Haha, I don't know what kind of style it will have when it goes to the battlefield. Lu Bu sighed with interest.

"Should you be wearing gold armor and a golden hairpin?" Sun Guan also touched his chin and imagined the appearance of a woman on the battlefield.

After hearing this, Lu Bu waved his hand and corrected, "It should be a red scarf wrapped on his head." Female horse thieves on the prairie often dress up like this. ”

However, compared with Lu Bu and others' longing for red makeup and heroics, Chen Deng, as a military advisor, is more concerned about the changes in the battle situation in front of him. After all, the appearance of Cai's banner is tantamount to announcing the arrival of the main force of Donglai. Regardless of the comparison of the strength of the two armies, at least the Lu Bu army still has the hidden danger of insufficient military food at the moment. It must be known that the two counties of Yi'an and Zhuangwu that Lu Bu captured before were the Beihai county towns newly attached to Donglai. In addition, these two counties have suffered from severe drought and locust plagues, so there is not much grain in the city. What really can be called a granary should be the city opposite. Thinking of this, Chen Deng hurriedly stepped forward and said, "My lord, since the Donglai reinforcements have arrived, then we have to do our best to capture Buqi City, use the grain and grass in its city as supplies, and then turn back to fight Cai Anzhen." ”

As soon as Chen Deng's remarks came out, he was unanimously approved by all the generals present. It's not, everyone is here for the military rations this time. Since the granary is in front of you, there is no reason not to fight. Besides, the reason why the city was able to withstand the strong attack during the day was not so much that the city was heavily defended, but that the defenders of the city were aroused by the reinforcements, so they launched a Jedi counterattack. Just like a person who is dying and reflects the light, after a period of excitement, he will become even more impotent. Therefore, as long as you work harder at this moment, you will definitely be able to capture the city.

But just as everyone nodded yes, Lu Bu waved his hand and announced, "No, Ben Hou is going to fight a decisive battle with that Cai Anzhen." ”

"Lord" Chen Deng had long heard that Lu Bu was stubborn and self-serving, but he didn't expect to encounter such a thing the first time he went out with him. I really don't know if I should continue to talk? Or just let it go?

And just when Chen Deng was about to speak, Lu Bu explained to him in a calm tone, "Ben Hou also knows that Captain Chen's strategy is quite safe. However, I don't hide it from Captain Chen, we are all good at field warfare, not good at siege warfare. Since Cai Anzhen is leading the troops to help now, Ben Hou does not attack his shortcomings with his own strengths, but also attacks his strengths with his own shortcomings? What's more, as long as Ben Hou can defeat Cai Anzhen in one fell swoop. Then the counties of Donglai will inevitably be leaderless, and whether it is not the city or other Donglai counties, it will not be in the pocket of the Hou. ”

Don't say it, Lu Bu's heartfelt analysis also attracted the unanimous resonance of all the generals in the account. Because as Lu Bu said, whether it is Wei Xu, Gao Shun and others who came out of the army, or Zang Ba and Sun Guan who were born in the rogue army, they are not good at siege warfare. If it weren't for the sake of food and grass, they wouldn't be willing to risk the lives of their brothers to fill the moats. At this moment, since Lu Bu proposed a combat method with fewer casualties, everyone's minds naturally became active.

The Lord is right. Ba is willing to lead the troops to fight with the lord Cai Anzhen. Zang Ba took the lead in clapping.

"All qiΔ“ are at the command of the lord." Sun Guan also echoed.

Since Zang Ba and Sun Guan both expressed their willingness to fight with Cai Ji in the field. Wei Xu and Gao Shun, who are Lu Bu's henchmen, will of course have no objections. In this way, Chen Deng has become the only outlier in the big tent. Do? Chen Deng is not Chen Gong, but he will not fight with Lu Bu. Therefore, seeing that the overall situation has been decided, Chen Deng naturally replied without saying a word, "The lord is wise, but Deng does not know what to do." ”
