Chapter 562: Unpredictable
"Wang Wu, Wang Heng, haven't they come back yet? How many of the other scouts have returned now? Scout Sima asked the team who was counting on the side, although he was also counting the number of scouts returning on the side.
"Wang Wu, they haven't come back yet, it is estimated that the investigation is too detailed, and the two hundred and seventy-three scout teams that were discharged before have already returned, and two hundred and sixty-four have returned, and there are still nine that have not returned." The scout team who was counting replied to Sima that it was already late at this point in time, and it would be time to bury the pot and cook in a while.
"Huh~" There was a sound of reining in the distance, and the scout Sima and the team leader looked at the same time, only to see two more scouts coming back.
"Two hundred and sixty-five have returned, and there are still eight that have not returned, and there is no special military intelligence." The Scout Captain replied.
"Okay, you continue to wait here, and I'll report to the general and the military advisor." Scout Sima glanced at the two scouts who had just returned, but did not say anything, nor did he suspect that something had happened to the other eight scouts.
"Report!" Guo Jia and Guan Yu were sitting in the tent discussing the march after joining Zhang Fei, although this military affairs had been discussed many times, but whenever they were bored, Guo Jia would talk to Guan Yu again.
"Speak!" Guan Yu glanced at the scout Sima and only said one word, the scout Sima only felt a kind of majesty and cold arrogance rushing towards him, although he had reported information to Guan Yu many times, but every time he saw Guan Yu, who was stroking his beard and slightly opening his eyes and scanning his own, Scout Sima had a feeling - majestic and arrogant, look, the image of a person is erected like this.
Scout Sima lowered his head and repeated all the information. After making sure that nothing was missed, he lowered his head and waited for Guan Yu's order.
"Of the two hundred and seventy-three teams, two hundred and sixty-five returned. Eight still have not returned? Guo Jiamo read it for a while, and after making sure that it was still within the normal range, he didn't ask anything more. He nodded towards Guan Yu.
"Report the scouts who haven't returned, and you're good to go." Guan Yu's deep voice came.
Scout Sima hurriedly presented the finished bamboo slips, Guo Jia glanced at them and was slightly stunned, put down the wine glass that had been picked up, reached out and picked up the bamboo slips, looked at them carefully, and looked a little gloomy.
"But there's a problem?" Guan Yu and Guo Jia have been working together for a long time, and seeing that Guo Jia did not drink, he picked up the bamboo slip and knew that there was a problem. So he asked.
"I'm afraid there's an ambush in this area." Guo Jia sighed and said, it is indeed very normal for seven or eight scout teams not to come back, after all, scouts are too deep in this magical creature, and sometimes they will come back later, two or three hundred teams of two, seven or eight teams do not come back, it is a common thing!
"The other side will not be large in number, and it will not be more than a thousand people in ambush to the west of us, and it is very likely that they will evade us. There is also a possibility of the attack, and the leader will probably be at the level of internal qi separation from the body. Although Guo Jia said that he was suspicious, he guessed the general situation just by looking at the bamboo slips in his hand.
"Okay, then let's get ready!" Guan Yu didn't think about Guo Jia's guess at all. After following Guo Jia for a long time, Guan Yu also knew that Guo Jia's judgment was rarely wrong or missing, although it was indeed shocking to be able to infer this Cheng Dรน from just a bamboo slip with no relevant information. But for Guo Jia, Guan Yu is now absolutely trusted.
Guo Jia sighed. He still likes to explain to others, but it's a pity that Guan Yu has been working with him for a long time and no longer asks him why.
"Show me the map. Let me find the position of the other party, determine the class of the other party, and if we can, it would be better for us to ambush them. Guo Jia said boredly.
Guan Yu groped twice in his arms and threw a cowhide map to Guo Jia, only to see Guo Jia constantly comparing with his knuckles on the map, and finally sighed silently, "Underestimate the other party." โ
"Why do you have a time when you are blind?" Guan Yu touched his beard and said with a smile, he was very interested in Guo Jia's deflated thing.
"It's not that we are blind, but the other party is a little far away from us, and they are all cavalry, and the strength is estimated to be only 1,000 people, so they are ambushed in the hills in the northwest direction, and it is estimated that they have marched in the same direction with us before, and the target is really us." Guo Jia was amazed and admired the courage of the other party.
"This time, you can even estimate the troops?" Guan Yu was taken aback.
"The distance is so far, rushing to kill and attacking, the scouts will be suspicious if they don't return for too long, so time can't be delayed, our strength advantage is very strong, even if the other party attacks at night, it can only be based on destroying morale, and according to the opponent's courage and heart, Cheng Dรน will definitely not fight to the death, so that a quick battle and quick retreat is the king." Guo Jia said calmly, and Guan Yu also understood after such an analysis.
"It's all cavalry, the cavalry here must be Lu Bu's, then it can only be a wolf ride, and it has the advantage of terrain, if the other party doesn't rush into our pocket, then it will definitely succeed in escaping." Guan Yu nodded and said.
"But I'm curious about which general under Lu Bu has such courage and such a careful and cautious mind." Guo Jia said curiously, "It's a pity that I've been fighting in the north and Jizhou recently, and I don't have much time to contact the intelligence of the world, otherwise I should be able to guess who the other party is." โ
"But that's enough!" A cold light flashed in Guan Yu's eyes, "I'll order the soldiers under my command to step up their vigilance." โ
Guo Jia didn't speak, he was very curious now, a top military general who could kill two scouts at a considerable distance in an instant, and didn't give the scouts the slightest reaction, and knew that the other party was Guan Yu, the top generals who still decided to sneak attack actually only led a thousand people!
[It seems that the other party is not powerful in the hands of Lu Bu, so you can try to persuade him. Guo Jia carefully looked at the direction of the scouts who had not returned from Team 8, and finally determined that the other party had indeed killed a team of scouts and then marched in the same direction with them.
[Bold and careful, the strength is strong enough, if twilight falls today, the other party really kills when burying the pot and cooking, I am afraid that this person can be described as the world's first-class in all aspects. Guo Jia silently thought that for Zhang Liao, who had never been masked, Guo Jia gave a very high evaluation in the first encounter.
[It's a pity that the other party didn't think that I had only recently numbered three hundred and sixty scouts, so after this dispersal, I can even calculate where you are, and kill eight scouts, just this distance I can even guess how many of you are, let you attack at night! ] Guo Jia thought with a sneer.
Zhang Liao didn't know that he hadn't done it yet, and Guo Jia had already revealed his count. (To be continued......)
