Chapter 546: Cunning Clamping
According to the address and road map provided by Cao Jun, the Jinling Army in the southeast began to send grain and grass to Cao Jun's various operations to various points in the Central Plains Battlefield and the Guandu Battlefield.
After the first batch of grain and grass was delivered, the potters immediately found the grain guards who were in charge of escorting the grain and grass to fully understand the situation and see where the grain they supplied to Cao Cao had been transported.
However, after watching it for a long time, the potter didn't see the reason.
So he still brought the five masterminds under his command to refer to it in detail.
In the end, it was Sima Yi who saw a little bit of the bottom first.
"Teacher, everyone, something doesn't seem quite right here."
Sima Yi tapped lightly on the drawn map and said to everyone.
Lu Su squinted his eyes and carefully observed for a long time, before he said quietly: "Zhongmu? Isn't this the county seat of the Central Plains? What's so strange about the grain and grass being transported here? ”
Sima Yi shook the Pukui fan and said solemnly: "Logically speaking, there is no problem with transporting grain and grass to the county seat of the Central Plains, but Zhongmu County is too close to the Guandu battlefield, and the grain and grass of Cao's army on the Guandu battlefield is enough to be transported to Guandu, and what is it to be transported to Zhongmu County?" At the invitation of Cao Jun, the grain and grass transported to Zhongmu County is about 30,000 stones, although it is a lot, but it is definitely not much for 100,000 Cao soldiers, 100,000 soldiers plus cattle and horses, 30,000 stones can't hold on for a month, and it is like chicken ribs in Zhongmu County, what do you want him to do? ”
Chen Deng's mind was quick, and he was the first to reminisce.
"What Zhong Da means is that the grain and straw in Zhongmu County is not for Cao Jun of Guandu Headquarters, but for Li Dao and Guo Yan, who are attacking and harassing the state in the north?"
Sima Yi nodded and said, "Ten of **." ”
Chen Deng didn't come back to it a little.
"According to what Zhong Da said, if these grains are given to Li and Guo and the two of them are used, but Li and Guo Yan go north and merge with the state, and this Zhongmu County is not close to Hanoi, what is the use?"
Zhuge Liang gently put down the white feather fan and said: "Mr. Yuanlong, what Xiao Yi means, Liang already knows, Li and Guo are going north to attack and disturb the state, they must be lightly armed, this part of the grain Cao Gong must have been prepared for the two of them, if what Xiao Yi said is true, the grain in Zhongmu County should be for Li and Guo to return to the army." ”
Lu Su looked at Zhuge Liang a little strangely, and said: "Kong Ming, if it is as you said, but the distance between Zhongmu County and the state is inevitably a little far, the so-called three armies have not moved, the grain and grass go first, and the matter of grain and straw is very important, in case there is a slight delay in the middle, and you will not be able to come back for a while......"
Zhuge Liang smiled: "Brother Zijing, what kind of person is Cao Cao?" The calculation of the time of grain and grass must be proper, and that Li Dao was also a fierce general in Xiliang back then, and he had been in battle for a long time, how could he not know that it was powerful, and they must have the confidence to dare to hoard the follow-up military food in Zhongmu County. ”
Chen Deng and Lu Su still didn't think too much about it, but Guo Jia smiled and said: "The two of you are probably blinded by a leaf, some things can't be simply measured by distance, and although the state and Hanoi are far away, but the west of Zhongmu is Xingyang, the old site of Xingyang has a work force of Gaozu back then, have you ever forgotten?" ”
Lu Su and Chen Deng suddenly realized, the two of them were born in the southern realm, although they had dabbled in the terrain of the northwest and Guanzhong, they were not very familiar with it, and after Guo Jia's mention, they woke up.
While Chu and Han were vying for power, Gaozu set up camp south of Xingyang and built a tunnel to the Yellow River in order to obtain grain from Aocang.
The confrontation between Gaozu and Xiang Yu lasted for more than a year, Xiang Yu had repeatedly seized this road leading to the Yellow River, forcing the Han army to be unable to supply food, and after hundreds of years, this road is still in the old site of Xingyang, and this road leads to the Central Plains of the Yellow River, which naturally does not need to take a lot of effort.
After inferring back and forth like this, everyone finally settled the matter.
The potter looked back and forth at the five people: "Since this matter has been analyzed, then please keep it in mind and don't leak it to others, after all, this is the key link for us to fight against Yuan Shao, we can't start infighting with our allies, everything is not too late to make a conclusion after defeating Yuan Shao." ”
Everyone said, "No." ”
The five people all knew in their hearts that the most lacking thing in Xuzhou and the southeast was the war horse, and the war horse of the Xiliang Army and the Hebei Army was the crown of the world.
According to Zhang Xiuyan, among the various departments of the Xiliang Army, the number of war horses of Li Dao and Guo Yan is the largest, especially the Xiliang war horses in Li Dao's camp, which is enough to count 8,000!
According to the gentleman's nature of the potter, he will definitely not let go of this hand-in-hand ...... Horse opportunities.
……
The two armies confronted each other, Yuan Shao attacked repeatedly, and Cao Tao continued to defend, but according to the character of the pottery merchant and Cao Cao, they would not continue to defend endlessly passively.
So, the small actions of the two people began.
Cao Cao sent people to garrison Li Dao and Guo Yan in Guanzhong at the same time, sent troops to Hebei, attacked and harassed the land of the annexed states, and caused disaster in Yuan Shao's rear.
The pottery merchant sent someone to Taihang, contacted Bai Huan, and asked him to persuade Zhang Yan to send troops to help and flank Yuan Shao.
Bai Huan is one of the important commanders of the Black Mountain Army, and he lives deep in the Taihang Mountains, so naturally not everyone can find it.
However, in addition to Bai Huan, the pottery merchant also knew the general of the Black Mountain Army, Zheng Gu, who was currently stationed in Qi County, on the edge of Wei County, as the outpost leader of the Black Mountain Army to monitor the movement of Hebei.
After many years, even if he is stupid, through many inquiries, he must have known the identities of the potter and Guo Jia.
On weekdays, he is naturally embarrassed.
Unexpectedly, Yuan Shao's godson, who called friends with himself and Bai Dashuai, ate sheep and drank wine, is now the prince of the dynasty who is above 10,000 people under one person.
He seems to be better than Yuan Shao.
And what is even more sensational is that this Taifu is still opposed to his godfather Yuan Shao, which is really touching the cold state of the world and the rapid change.
After seeing the messenger of the potter, he did not dare to slack off, and personally escorted him into the Taihang Mountains, met Bai Huan, and explained the matter in detail.
After talking to the messenger, Bai Huan asked the messenger of the pottery merchant to go back to rest first, saying that he would come to Japan to meet Qu Shuai Zhang Yan before making a decision.
After the envoy went down to rest, Bai Huan couldn't help smacking his lips and said with emotion: "This wealthy family is really not good, it really has no cultivation!" When we met these two Yuan Shao's godsons, the two boys had a father and a head of the family, and they held that godfather Yuan Shao to the sky! Now that it's just been a few years of work, the two boys have stiffened their wings, and they want to beat their godfather, and they also ask us to beat him together, do you say there is a reason for this? ”
Hearing this, Su Gu nodded vigorously, and agreed: "The last general also thinks that these two boys are quite unconscionable, they have no loyalty, filial piety and shame at all, and they are living and free!" ”
"Really?" Bai Huan threw the letter of the potter on the table casually, and said: "The Han Dynasty is based on loyalty and filial piety, and the son wants to beat his father, which is simply intolerable. ”
He moved his adam's apple, swallowed softly, and said, "That...... Qu Shuai, then why don't we help the potter beat his father? ”
Bai raised his eyebrows and said angrily: "Beat! Of course you have to beat it! You are fucking stupid, how many brothers did Yuan Shao kill our Black Mountain Army back then? If you don't take advantage of the chaos to give him a moment now, won't the old man of the Yuan family treat our Black Mountain Army as mud? ”
He was a little dizzy when he heard this.
"Qu Shuai, didn't you just say that your son beats his father, and heaven doesn't allow it? And isn't our Han Dynasty based on loyalty and filial piety? ”
Bai Huan nodded angrily and said, "Say you're stupid, you're really fucking silly!" Yuan Shao is not your godfather and mine, let's beat him up and do? Do loyal and filial piety! Even if God wants to send thunder and split people, he is also splitting the surname Tao! Besides, the emperor is fucking dead, and he is still loyal and filial. ”
Su Gu suddenly realized and said, "Qu Shuai is wise! Let's go and advise Zhang Qushuai tomorrow...... Beat Yuan Shao's grandson!"
Bai Huan shook his fist fiercely and said, "Beat!" It's a must! ”
