Zhang Dang came from afar with Kirbineng's 'sincerity'.

Like a heavy rain in the sweltering summer, it brought coolness to the Fenwu army.

Kirbyneng's 20,000 war horses and his attitude of submission made the soldiers of the Fenwu Army full of confidence again.

The battle with Cao Cao's army may just be an 'accident', but our Fenwu army is still very strong.

You see, the Southern Xiongnu who dominate the grassland, the Xianbei tribe of Bingzhou, the Xianbei tribe of Youzhou, and the Wuhuan tribe, don't they all honestly submit to us?

The arrival of Zhang Dang, in addition to providing Han Cheng with a great boost, also swept away the 'haze of defeat' that shrouded the head of the Fenwu army.

Every soldier of the Fenwu Army knows that although our Fenwu Army lost a battle on the battlefield in Hanoi County, in terms of big strategy, our Fenwu Army still won.

The reason why such a result can be achieved must be indispensable to the credit of the intelligence battalion that 'fanned the flames', because these are what they are best at.

......

The battle between the Fenwu Army and Cao Cao's Army has passed a whole month in the blink of an eye.

The time has come to May of 2019.

In this month, Han Cheng did not make any mistakes and adopted the tactics of 'old turtle' defending the city.

You Cao Caojun love it, I am the kind who defends the city and does not go out of the city to fight.

Of course, if you are really in a hurry, I will still open the city gate and send the Xuanwu army out to kill.

This is the most suitable way for the Xuanwu army to fight—defending and counterattacking in defense.

Han Cheng's method caused Cao Cao's army to suffer heavy casualties.

Ren Cao Cao, Guo Jia and others are resourceful, but in the face of this situation, there is nothing they can do.

Therefore, Cao Cao could only station his army under the county town of Tunliu to find a way to break the enemy.

On this day, Jia Xu came to Cao Cao's tent alone.

As soon as he entered the tent, he saw Cao Cao's face full of exhaustion, and he did not have the vigor of the past.

After the military salute, Jia Xu said respectfully to this Cao Cao: "Lord, Tunliu County is a 'hard to bite' bone.

We have to 'gnaw' for a long time. You need to pay more attention to your body, you are the backbone of this army! ”

Cao Cao listened to Jia Xu's words of comfort, and still said tiredly: "Alas! I know both the text and what you said!

But in the past half a month, our army's offensive has not made any progress, which keeps me awake all night!

Our army is good at fighting, but it is mainly good at field warfare. In such a siege battle, the 'tiger and leopard cavalry' will not be able to give full play to its advantages.

On the other hand, the Fenwu Army, their Vermilion Bird Army and Xuanwu Army were able to rely on the advantages of the city and give full play to their own advantages, which caused heavy losses to our army! ”

At this time, Cao Cao was forty-five years old, and his energy and physical strength were not as good as before; And Jia Xu on the opposite side is also eight years older than Cao Cao, and has reached the age of fifty-three.

I don't know if it's because of the recent lack of results, or if the two people are of the same age and have a common language.

Cao Cao unconsciously opened his own 'chatterbox'.

"Wenhe, Han Cheng blocked Bingzhou and Youzhou, prevented the war horses from going south, and cut off the source of our war horses!

Strategically, we lost!

Only by forming an alliance with Yuan Shao now, jointly sending troops, fighting on two fronts, dispersing Han Cheng's forces, and breaking through each other, can we win a glimmer of life.

Attacking the city will cost the soldiers heavy losses, I know that.

But if I don't fight with my heart, within three years, Han Chengcheng will have a large number of cavalry.

At that time, no matter how strong the 'Tiger and Leopard Cavalry' is, it will not be able to withstand so many cavalry. ”

Jia Xu catered slightly: "What the lord said is very true. I didn't expect that Han Cheng was so young, how could he have such a long-term strategic vision? ”

Cao Cao thought for a while, and said angrily to Jia Xu: "It's not like that. When I was in my twenties, how could I have such a long-term vision? Alas! Today's young people are amazing! The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, we are all old! ”

After Cao Cao sighed, he seemed to feel much more comfortable, and brought the topic back to the topic.

asked Jia Xu: "Wenhe, you came here this time, don't you have any strategy to break the enemy?" ”

Jia Xu immediately replied: "Wen He's thoughts, I can't hide it from the lord, Wen He does have some immature ideas, please give me some advice." ”

After Cao Cao heard this, he laughed and said, "Wenhe, you are just too cautious. I know what you're capable of.

Among these advisors of my Cao Cao, you are definitely one of the best.

In the future, you can speak freely in front of me, and it is better to know everything and say everything. ”

Jia Xu just smiled silently.

But in his heart, he was wary of himself and said: "Jia Wenhe, don't believe Cao Cao's words.

Have you forgotten how Bian Rang died? I haven't counted any points yet!

If you don't have a doorkeeper on your mouth, you are the next 'side let'! ”

Jia Xu, who figured out this, instantly cleared his brain a lot.

He replied to Cao Cao: "The subordinates keep in mind the teachings of the lord, and the words are endless. ”

This is Jia Xu's self-preservation technique, you let me 'know everything, say everything'.

But I'll just answer you, 'I can't say anything.'"

It seems to answer your words, but it doesn't answer your words.

Because knowing everything means that as long as you know, there is nothing that you do not say.

If you really want to do this, you will offend people.

To say that there is no end to it: to say all the words of the heart, without reservation.

Do you know what's going on in my heart?

Do you really know that I have 'no end to my words'?

Cao Cao listened to Jia Xu's words and didn't delve into it.

said to Jia Xu: "Wenhe, you are right to do this!" Come! Tell me about your plans and see if you can surprise me? ”

I saw Jia Xu say seriously:

"In the past few days, I have sorted out all the previous information about the Fenwu Army.

I found a problem: in the Fenwu Army, because of the existence of Huang Zhong, many capable people cannot be called the commander.

Up to now, in the entire Fenwu Army, only Zhang Liao can be called the commander.

No one else can do it! Either there is not enough prestige or there is not enough ability.

In order to facilitate the combat of various armies during the war, the Fenwu Army set up many army numbers.

Such as the Qinglong Army, the Vermilion Bird Army, the Xuanwu Army, etc., these armies have their own commanders.

If the manager leaves, it will instantly form a situation of 'no leader'.

And this is precisely our breakthrough point.

In the current Tunliu County, all the people rely on Han Cheng to suppress them, so that they can unite the front and fight the enemy together.

As long as we get Han Cheng away for a few days, and then storm again, there will inevitably be civil strife in Tunliu County.

After the civil strife, our opportunity will not come.

As for how to get Han Cheng away, this one is relatively simple.

Didn't Han Cheng claim to respect Emperor Han Xian and obey Emperor Han Xian's orders in everything?

Then let's let Emperor Han Xian give an order and let Han Cheng return to Taiyuan County to resume his life.

If Han Cheng goes back, Tunliu County will create an opportunity for us.

If Han Cheng doesn't go back, hehe! Doesn't it create opportunities for those ministers in the court who are loyal to Emperor Han Xian. ”

After Cao Cao heard this, he couldn't help but praise: "Wenhe, your trick of 'drawing salary from the bottom of the kettle' is good, and it can be implemented." Who do you think is appropriate? ”

Jia Xu took the initiative to ask: "I came up with this plan, so naturally it is most suitable for me to go to Taiyuan County." ”

After Cao Cao listened to Jia Xu's words, he thought for a moment: "This strategy is very good, and it is very practicable. But Jia Xu is already fifty-three years old, how can I rest assured that he will go in person?

Jia Xu is a rare talent. What if I miss and get caught by the Fenwu Army? Let someone else go! ”

Cao Cao, who thought of this, said to Jia Xu with concern: "Wenhe, the current army can't do without you, you can't go, I'd better let someone else go!" ”

After Cao Cao finished speaking, Jia Xu immediately replied: "Subordinates listen to orders!" ”

Jia Xu knows: Cao Cao's words are mainly to protect himself, and he must know the proportions, and don't force it.

After Jia Xu withdrew from the big tent, Cao Cao faded away from that tired look, only to see that his eyes became bright and shining, and he returned to his resourceful appearance.

Cao Cao really didn't pretend to be for Jia Xu, he was indeed worried.

Cao Cao shouted to the guards outside the door: "Someone! Call Lou Gui to me. ”

Lou Gui, Zibo, a native of Nanyang County, Jingzhou, had a deep friendship with Cao Cao when he was young.

This person's ability to adapt to changes is extremely strong, which makes Cao Cao admire.

When Lou Gui was young, he was imprisoned as a death row prisoner for hiding outlaws in his home.

Later, he escaped from prison and was chased after him by the officials who arrested him.

Lou Gui knew that he could not escape, so he immediately changed his clothes, and seemed to be the same as the people who helped him arrest, confusing the officials who came to pursue him, so that he was able to escape.

After a short while, a man in his forties walked into Cao Cao's tent.

said respectfully to Cao Cao: "Lord, your subordinates are down!" ”

Cao Cao said softly: "Uncle Zi, we have known each other for many years, and I know your ability. Now I have a tricky thing to do, and I hope you can do it. ”

Lou Gui replied without changing his face: "Let the Lord send you!" ”

Cao Cao happily replied, "Good! You lead a few people, with a lot of money, and set off immediately. Go to Taiyuan County to open up the relationship! Let Emperor Han Xian give Han Cheng an order to return to Taiyuan County to restore his life. ”

Lou Gui replied confidently: "This is not a difficult matter, please rest assured that the subordinates will be able to complete the task." ”

Cao Cao smiled with satisfaction and continued: "I am relieved of your ability!"

But don't be careless, after all, Han Cheng has been operating in Taiyuan County for many years, if you can't do anything, you should withdraw it quickly!

People are more important than tasks at all times. ”

Lou Gui replied excitedly: "Thank you for your concern!" The subordinates are determined to go all out to complete the tasks entrusted by the lord. ”

......

Three days later, a caravan of more than 100 people entered the territory of Bingzhou from Huguan.

This caravan did not stay too much in Shangdang County, and went directly north to Taiyuan County and went to Taiyuan County.

A day later, the caravan successfully arrived in Taiyuan County.

Lou Gui is also a person who is familiar with the art of war, and knows that no matter what he does, he must know himself and his opponent.

Therefore, on the way, he carefully read everything Cao Cao could find out about the situation of the Fenwu Army and kept it in mind.

Emperor Han Xian became Han Cheng's puppet, which is something that everyone in the world knows.

But as long as it's a human place, there will be loopholes.

And this loophole, it used to be Wu Zilan, Chongji, Wang Zifu and others, but now it is over.

Fu Wan, the father of Emperor Fu of the Han Dynasty, is currently the captain of the Tun Cavalry.

Although he seems to be one of the eight lieutenants with high authority, he has no real power, and except for his own thirty personal soldiers, there is not a single soldier under him.

He hated, but he didn't dare to make a move.

At this time, many ministers in the court were Han Cheng's cronies, but they were definitely not. Because no matter what, Han Cheng wouldn't believe him.

And Lou Gui wanted to complete his mission and get the will of Emperor Han Xian.

and must find someone who hates Han Cheng and can come into contact with Emperor Han Xian.

Therefore, he became the best candidate for this.

So, Lou Gui took advantage of the night to ask his entourage to go to the Fu Fu Mansion and hand over his prayer post.

Sure enough, he met with him.

Lou Gui and Fu Wan chatted for two hours before Lou Gui came out of Fu Wan's mansion.

Just when Lou Gui was elated, not far from Han Cheng's Great General's Mansion, there was an inconspicuous mansion.

At this time, in the study of this mansion, Bai Hua was listening to the report of his subordinates: "Bai Sima, according to the report of his subordinates."

A caravan came from Jizhou, and just arrived in Taiyuan County, the person in charge took advantage of the night to meet with Fu Wan, do we need to take action? ”

Shiro's fingers kept tapping on the tabletop, which was his way of thinking.

After thinking for a moment, Bai Hua said to the person who had just reported, "Stay for a while." You're doing a great job of this.

The captain is accompanying the lord in the front battle, and we must ensure the stability of the rear.

The caravan that appeared at this time was most likely Cao Cao or Yuan Shao's men.

Let's not startle the snakes first, send more people, observe them for a few days, and make sure to find out their situation completely, and leave no one behind.

You immediately send a message to the brothers on the Jizhou side to confirm the identity of this caravan.

When the time comes, we'll serve them in one pot.

Now we don't make a move; As soon as it is struck, it must be wiped out, leaving not a single remnant.

Where there is us, there must be no hidden dangers! ”
