Volume 2 Chapter 71 of the Strategy
"Strategist!" Xiahou Yuan shouted, he was worried that this Guo Jia had run away again, so as soon as they approached, Xiahou Yuan yelled at him from a distance, for fear that he would pat his ass again and run away.
However, Guo Jia didn't let them worry anymore, only to see him and Cao Hong both riding slowly, as if they had been waiting for them.
"Miaocai, you guys are so slow!" Seeing that Xiahou Yuan and them were late, Cao Hong glanced at him and complained.
Xiahou Yuan didn't say a word, rode the horse in front of Cao Hong, suddenly slapped him on the back of the head, and scolded: "Damn, if you dare to do things again, believe it or not, I will peel off your skin like a tiger and make a blanket?" ”
Cao Hong knew that he was afraid, and hurriedly said: "Brother Miaocai, I won't dare next time." ”
After teaching Cao Hong a lesson, Xiahou Yuan bowed his hand to Guo Jia and said: "Strategist, your horse is fast, if you really want to cut off our heads, you can say it directly, if you compare the strength of your feet, we can't compare to the BMW of the strategist." ”
Guo Jia laughed and said: "Sorry generals, I'm a fierce horse, so ruthless and brave, I can't control my feet when I am provoked, and I have to fight to be willing, but it seems that he has calmed down now, and I promise that I will not let him run around again." ”
After Guo Jia finished speaking, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, if Guo Jia ran all the way like this, it would be strange if they were not tired to death.
At this time, Yu Ban stepped forward and asked Guo Jia: "Strategist, there are two roads ahead, one leads to the main road and the other is a small road, I don't know which way to go?" ”
Cao Hong said loudly: "Then it goes without saying, since we are attacking Xuzhou by surprise this time, of course we have to go by surprise, of course, we are taking a hidden path!" ”
Guo Jia praised: "It is worthy of General Cao Hong, who is well versed in the art of war!" ”
Cao Hong was praised by Guo Jia like this, and he couldn't help but become proud, and even his nose was cocked.
"But ......"
Guo Jia continued: "General Cao Hong only knows one thing, but he doesn't know the other, the original intention of the surprise attack is to take it by surprise, but it is not the only way to conceal it. ”
Hearing Guo Jia say this, everyone was curious about what he would say next?
"It's hundreds of miles away from Xuzhou, and even if we choose a hidden route, it's hard for thousands of people to travel day and night without being spotted, and the hidden roads are often rugged and bumpy, which not only consumes manpower, but also wastes precious time."
At this time, even an expert in the art of war like Yu Ban was puzzled, and asked Guo Jia: "What the military advisor said is true, it is unrealistic to want to cross the sea to Xuzhou for hundreds of miles, because there is no dangerous road to Xuzhou from here to avoid the eyes and ears, and there is no concealment at all. ”
Xiahou Yuan was stunned and asked, "Then like you say, how can we still surprise Xuzhou?" ”
Yu Ban shook his head.
Xiahou Yuan turned his head to look at Guo Jia, wondering what he said.
I saw Guo Jia smile and said: "It's very simple, one word, fast!" ”
"Quick?" Everyone was surprised.
"Sun Ziyun: The love of soldiers is the main speed, and it is beyond the reach of others. As long as our speed is fast enough, we can achieve a surprise effect and catch the Xuzhou army off guard! ”
As soon as Guo Jia talked about the art of war and strategy, he was full of energy, which was completely different from his usual appearance.
Yu Ban still had some worries in his heart, and said: "But the military advisor, no matter how fast we are, we can't be as fast as the Xuzhou army that is waiting for work, they only need to find out our movements, and they can prepare, why surprise?" ”
Guo Jia laughed out loud after hearing this, and said to the ban: "General Wen Ze is too cautious, I will make a bet with you, I will bet that even if the Xuzhou army knows that we are coming, when we kill Xuzhou, they will not be able to react!" ”
Seeing Guo Jia so confident, Yu Ban also felt interesting, and arched his hand: "Okay, Yu Ban is bold, just make a bet with the military advisor, if it is really as the military advisor said, even if Yu Ban loses, he will be overjoyed." ”
"Okay, then we'll see you in Xuzhou in three days!"
Guo Jia said, leading the generals and the tiger and leopard riders towards the main road.
And just as Yu Ban expected, Xuzhou had also learned the news that Cao Cao raised troops to avenge Cao Song at this time.
"What, what!"
In the meeting hall, an old man who was over the age of ten suddenly heard that Cao Cao of Yanzhou was leading a large army to attack, and he was so frightened that he sat down in a chair and didn't know what to do.
This old man is Xuzhou Mu Taoqian.
"I originally wanted to be friendly with Cao Cao, entertain his family with VIP gifts, and give a lot of property, why did he suddenly turn his face and lead the army here?"
It turned out that his subordinates were afraid that this incident would make the old man frightened too much, so the murder of Cao Song has been concealed until now, and now he can no longer hide it, so he can only tell Tao Qian the whole story.
When Tao Qian learned that the guards he sent to escort Cao Song's family rebelled and killed Cao Song's family, Tao Qian was really frightened, and he looked left and right, and asked everyone again and again: "How should this be good, how should this be good?" ”
I saw Tao Qian's subordinates, out of a general, this person looks vicious, a fierce face, he is Tao Qian's subordinate general Zhenrong, this person is brutal, killing people without blinking, but because of the courage and belligerence by Tao Qian appreciated, accepted as a subordinate.
I saw Zhen Rong say loudly: "The old man doesn't have to worry, just give me 5,000 soldiers and horses, and I will kill that Cao Cao and never return!" ”
"But I heard that Cao Cao brought more than 300,000 soldiers and horses this time." Hearing Ji Rong's boastful talk, the man on the side reminded him.
