"Shizai, last time in the Biyang Mansion Treasury, how many sets of Cao Jun's battle armor were captured?"

While speaking, Guan Ping was also full of thoughts, looked at Deng Ai, and said slowly.

Hearing this, Deng Ai's face remained unchanged, and he arched his hand and said: "Tell the young general, in the battle of Biyang, our army obtained a total of 1,832 sets of Yu Cao's army armor. ”

"More than a thousand?"

Hearing this, Guan Zhong was thoughtful, so he muttered: "It's enough." ”

"Shizai, you led more than 1,000 people to change into Cao Jun's battle armor, and then controlled the warship to pass forward, and after approaching the mouth, he suddenly attacked."

"On top of that, you must annihilate all the hundreds of Jiangdong sergeants who are garrisoned, and you must not let any of them escape from the net."

"If... If there are people living within a radius of several miles, they will definitely be killed! ”

At this moment, Guan Ping's expression was extremely gloomy, which was completely different from his previous performance of etiquette and wisdom.

That's right, wearing Cao Jun's battle armor, pretending to be the Jiangxia Wenpin Division, he suddenly launched a surprise attack on Jukou, killing all the soldiers and civilians around him, and exterminating them.

At that time, the people who survived here fled south, and used their mouths to spread the news of Cao's attack back to Xunyang and even Jingkou.

Killing unarmed innocent people, Guan Ping doesn't want to!

But for the sake of his own overall situation, in order to be able to borrow Jiangdong without being noticed by Dongwu's ears and eyes, it is inevitable to stir up a mess of water, so that Jiangdong is tired of dealing with Jiangdong and has no energy to care about them.

And the killing of the surrounding people, in addition to the plan to be seen by the people, also frightened them, and then the family fled and sent the news back to the south.

After all, the sergeants are all well-trained, and if they can return to Xunyang safely to report this matter, I am afraid that it is not difficult to guess from Cheng Zhi and even the Jiangdong civil and military forces who are far away in Jingkou that this is a trick of the Jingzhou army.

But if it is a panicked public, the effect is very different, you know, the power of rumors is terrible!

Moreover, Cao Jun already has a bad reputation for slaughtering cities and killing prisoners, on the other hand, the soldiers of Liu Bei's group are all famous as the general manager, how can they wantonly slaughter the people?

Therefore, only by stirring the water yellow, can the Jingzhou army have the opportunity to take advantage of the opportunity to cross.

There is no need to hide this matter for a long time, as long as it can be concealed for two or three days, the Jingzhou army will be able to pass through the water and enter Yunmengze, a tributary of the Yangtze River, and then it will be able to travel lightly and quickly and return to Jiangling.

As for that time, even if Jiangdong realized that this was Guan Ping's trick, what did it matter?

Anyway, Cao Sun has already been allied, and a big war is inevitable.

Guan Ping felt that as long as he could lead the people back to defend and lead the soldiers to arrange the defense, even if Sun Quan tore up the alliance and attacked, it would be useless!

Moreover, if you take 10,000 steps back, even if Guan Ping doesn't kill the Jiangdong soldiers and civilians, won't Sun Quan betray the alliance?

After thinking for a while, Deng Ai was not slow to react, and immediately spoke up, and said softly: "Young General, are you going to take the opportunity to raid the Jiangdong Army, and then blame the Jiangxia Cao Army?" ”

"Yes!"

Looking at Deng Ai's confident gaze, Guan Ping also looked happy and nodded.

In the next second, Deng Ai's face was solemn, and he arched his hand and said: "Young General, according to Ai, this strategy has many loopholes, and I am afraid that it cannot be hidden from the Jiangdong generals and even Sun Quan." ”

When the words fell, Guan Ping was stunned, his eyes looked strange, he was a little puzzled, this was the first time Deng Ai opposed his strategy.

"Shizai, tell me what you think."

However, Guan Ping was not arbitrary, so he asked.

"No!"

As soon as he promised, Deng Ai thought for a moment, and then said: "Young General, just think about it, since Cao Sun has just reached an alliance, but on the back foot, there is a Jiangxia Cao army that actually raided the Jiangdong territory and killed and plundered the army and civilians. ”

"Is this suspicious?"

"The Jiangdong side must have been well aware of the news of our army's return to the south through the road, and the reason why Sun Quan still held back was to delay time, so that our army thought that he did not have the idea of attacking Jingzhou."

"Then, at a critical moment, it is giving our army a fatal blow!"

After a pause, Deng Ai's face stretched, and he continued: "That is the case, Sun Quan knows the whereabouts of our army at a glance, so once he raises his mouth and is attacked, he doesn't have to think about it, he knows that it was my army, and then blame Cao Jun." ”

"After all, now that Cao Sun is in the early alliance, the Xiangfan front line is even more unfavorable to the situation of the Cao army, and Sun Quan knows very well that it is impossible for the Cao army to lead a surprise attack at this critical juncture."

"He knows that Jiangxia Wenpin is not a fool."

"As long as you think of this, then you don't have to think about the rest anymore, you will know that it was our army."

"Therefore, Major General, Ai thinks that it will not be feasible for our army to simply use this strategy!"

In just a short time, a seat of words fell, Deng Ai made a loud voice, his expression was calm, and all the generals around him heard it and were convinced.

"What General Deng said is reasonable!"

"I'll second."

At this moment, all the generals spoke out one after another, bowed their hands, and began to curry favor with Deng Ai.

Although the position of General Deng Aibian was only temporarily sealed by Guan Ping on behalf of his father, legally speaking, it is impossible to do it, but the generals also know very well in their hearts that the main general Guan Yu is strict in governing the army, and meritorious service will be rewarded, and the guilty will be punished!

This time, Deng Ai made a lot of military achievements, and it was natural for him to be named a general after the war.

Hearing this, Guan Ping's complexion remained unchanged, but he nodded again and again, and muttered secretly: "It seems that I really took it for granted, and I actually missed this big mistake." ”

"If Deng Ai hadn't proposed this, I'm afraid that after the surprise attack, Sun Quan would inevitably be angered, but he would have fallen into the truth, so that he could justifiably betray the alliance and attack Jingzhou in advance."

At this moment, Guan Ping also felt more and more in his heart that Sun Quan was still standing still at this time, and he should be waiting for the opportunity and a suitable reason to betray the alliance.

"Shizai, I wonder if you have a plan to cross the river?"

After thinking for a while, Guan Ping also pinned his hopes on Deng Ai, so he asked slowly.

"Major General, Ai has thought of a plan, just add to your strategy, and it will be foolproof!"

"Although we can't hide the Jiangdong Army for long, at least it is enough for our army to take the opportunity to cross the border."

Hearing this, Guan Ping stroked his green short beard with his hand and muttered, "Tell me about it!" ”

Seeing that he signaled himself to speak, Deng Aisui did not hesitate, and immediately analyzed: "Major General, everyone, our army first pretended to be Sergeant Cao to raid and raise his mouth, and then killed the garrison soldiers, so that no one was caught. ”

"Taking the opportunity to imitate the way the Cao army slaughtered the people, killing the people within a radius of several miles, forcing them to panic, the family fled south, and spread the news of the Cao army's attack."

"Then, at this time, our army did not stop, changed into the armor of the Jiangdong Army, entered the territory of Jiangxia, and wantonly plundered everywhere, causing the anger of the Cao army."

"In the end, our army hid on the river and sat back and watched the changes."

"As long as this matter goes smoothly, then even if the generals of Wenpin and Jiangdong guess that it was our army, it will be fine, at least the people on both sides who are being ravaged by our army, they do not agree that it was our army."

"At that time, they will inevitably be in chaos, so that both Jiangdong and Wenpin will inevitably set up troops at the border, one is to deter each other, the second is to negotiate, and the third is to give an explanation to the victimized people, so as not to arouse public anger."

"And our army can take advantage of this short opportunity to negotiate at this moment to quickly cross the river and return to defend Jiangling."

"This will be our army's only chance!"

At this time, Deng Ai said this, his face was solemn, and his words were extremely solemn.

After all, this strategy is extremely risky, and if you are not careful, it will be a catastrophe!

After the words fell, Guan Ping pondered for a moment and said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, what Shizai said is the best strategy for our army at present. ”

"This will be the decision, and this strategy will be used."

"The so-called plan is in the people, and the success is in the sky, and I will believe that as long as our army concentrates on planning, it will definitely succeed."

When the words fell, the surrounding generals shouted one after another: "I will obey the instructions of the young general to the death." ”

As soon as the words were spoken, the generals also knew the severity of this time, so they also expressed their positions.
