Chapter 945: Hot Spring Deliberations
The book is picked up again.
"Ah!!h Xiahou Dun, who had never soaked in the hot spring, immediately let out a scream like killing a pig the moment he jumped into the hot spring.
"Hiss......" After Li Zhi heard this voice, he plucked out his ears and said with a speechless face: "Miaocai, isn't it like this?" Are you not afraid of the sea of swords, mountains and fires, but you are also afraid of a little hot water? ”
"How can this be the same?" Xiahou Dun was like a little girl who had been insulted, and said with his hands on his chest and a face full of grievances: "The sword mountain and the sea of fire are just painful, at most they will die, of course a certain family is not afraid."
But this feeling of being scalded by hot water is too shameful. ”
"......" After Li Zhi heard Xiahou Dun's words, he immediately thought of a sentence, I won't laugh unless I can't help it, "Hahahaha......"
Li Zhi couldn't help but laugh.
Seeing this, Xiahoudun glared at him, his face shrunk into a ball with grievances, and slowly immersed himself in the water, now that he has adapted to this temperature, he doesn't feel uncomfortable.
Just when Li Zhi was laughing, Xiahou Dun suddenly realized that after adapting to the water temperature, lying in the water was unexpectedly comfortable.
And most importantly, as a general, he can feel that this spring water is very good for his body.
After discovering this, Xiahou Dun no longer resisted his limbs, and lay comfortably in the water, and he stopped laughing and asked with a smile: "How is it?" Ben Hou didn't lie to you, it's very comfortable, right? ”
"......Huh" Xiahou Dun picked up a little hot spring water, wiped his face, let out a long breath, nodded comfortably and said: "It's really comfortable, and I don't know if it's an illusion, a certain family always thinks that this spring water is very good for the body." ”
"Of course this is not an illusion," Li Zhi nodded affirmatively and said: "This hot spring water can relax the muscles and invigorate the blood, and it can also treat dark injuries to a limited extent, and it also has a miraculous effect on some external injuries.
You practice martial arts on weekdays, and your body is always tense, and there are some dark injuries, so after entering this spring, you will feel that this thing is very good for your body.
Soak in it for a while, this thing is indeed a good thing for a military general like you. ”
"Hmm" Xiahou Dun heard this, and after responding with kindness, he said with emotion on his face: "Everything in this world is really strange, just a hot spring has such a curative effect, but it is a pity that there is no hot spring in Jizhou, where we are located, otherwise a certain family would go to soak every day." ”
Speaking of this, he changed his words and asked Li Zhi, "Hussar General, do you see if you can replace the hot spring water with hot water?" ”
Although Xia Houdun was a little reluctant at first, after realizing the benefits of this hot spring water, he immediately became addicted.
"Yes, yes, but hot water only has the effect of relaxing muscles and invigorating blood, and its effect is indeed far inferior to hot spring water.
Because the hot springs contain a lot of sulfur and other things that are good for the body, and the hot water just makes you feel comfortable.
However, even if you soak in hot water, it is better than just wiping your body with some water. ”
After finishing speaking, he saw that Xiahou Dun's face was full of disappointment, so he stopped talking about this topic, "Miaocai, Benhou received the carrier pigeon last night, and the army of Wang Goutou is already full of rumors, and at this time they all think that Zhang Yan is a man-eating demon king. ”
"Did it work?" Xiahou Dun was not very happy after hearing Li Zhi's words, but sighed a little unhappily and said: "To be honest, if it weren't for being forced to helpless, a certain family really didn't want to help that Wang Gouzi, like his kind of ungrateful person, a certain family would prefer to cut him with a knife!" ”
"Hehe......" After Li Zhi heard Xiahou Dun's words, he knew that he was still for Wang Gouzi and suddenly wanted to kill them, but he was angry, and after chuckling, he pointed around and said, "Saiong lost his horse, how do you know if it is a blessing?"
You see, if it weren't for Wang Gouzi's sudden murderous intentions towards us, we wouldn't have been able to find such a good hot spring. ”
Speaking of this, after Li Zhi splashed a little spring water on his face, he squinted his eyes comfortably, and moaned comfortably, "Miaocai, don't look at Wang Gouzi is very proud now, but according to Ben Hou's estimate, he will be uncomfortable in less than half a month!" ”
"Half a month?" After Xia Houdun heard this deadline, his eyes narrowed and asked, "Did the hussar general say that after half a month, Zhang Yan would crusade against him?" ”
"That's right" After Li Zhi nodded, his face turned straight, and he said: "Zhang Yan is not a fool, I sent a large number of supplies to Yanzhou with a swagger, and it is impossible for him not to find out."
And when he finds out, he will definitely investigate the matter immediately.
For Zhang Yan, who is not very wealthy, this batch of materials is also very important, so he must be very urgent in the process of investigation, I am afraid that it will not take him a few days to know what happened here.
And when he finds out Wang Gouzi, he will definitely not hesitate to send troops to fight!
On the one hand, it is to nip the hidden danger of Wang Gouzi in the bud.
On the other hand, it is also to get this batch of supplies.
Therefore, Zhang Yan will definitely use the fastest speed to gather the army and crusade against Wang Gouzi! ”
"......" Hearing this, Xiahou Dun frowned and asked after being silent for a while: "Hussar General, if Zhang Yan really made a move so quickly, it wouldn't be a good thing for us and others, right?"
Although a certain family hates Wang Gouzi, don't we still have to use Wang Gouzi to balance Zhang Yan?
If Zhang Yan goes out to crusade against Wang Gouzi after half a month, will Wang Gouzi be able to withstand it?
Although Wang Gouzi accepted the supplies from us, all his men were civilians who had never experienced any war.
Even if he recruited hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the meantime, but in just a few months, how could he not let these people train into a qualified army, right? ”
"I can't take care of this." After Li Zhi heard Xiahou Dun's words, his eyes narrowed, and he said a little irresponsibly: "Ben Hou only figured it out last night, it was Ben Hou who drilled the horns of the bull before.
In fact, we don't have to put all the chips on Wang Gouzi, as long as he can cause some harm to Zhang Yan, we have already achieved our goal. ”
After hearing this, Xiahou Dun frowned and asked, "Why did the hussar general say that?"
If Wang Gouzi only caused some harm to Zhang Yan, wouldn't it be a failure for me to delay Zhang Yan? ”
"Hehehe......" Li Zhi said with a chuckle when he heard this, and said: "Delaying Zhang Yan's matter, aren't there other forces opposing Zhang Yan?"
In fact, at the beginning, Ben Hou wanted to finish his work in one battle, so he put everything on Wang Gouzi.
But then I thought about it, why did Ben Hou do this?
Ben Hou can block the enemy in batches, find an enemy with a Zhang Yan, and let them block Zhang Yan again and again.
In this way, Zhang Yan will inevitably be annoyed, and she will no longer have the strength to deal with Brother Meng De. ”
"Good! It's a good idea! After Xia Houdun heard the words of reason, his eyes applauded one after another, and then he looked at Li Zhi with empty eyes and asked, "Hussar General, I'm afraid it's not that you can't think of this way, but you don't want to do it, right?"
Because this method will be very troublesome, you need to contact those who oppose Zhang Yan again and again.
And if Wang Gouzi really succeeds, you can stand behind him and wait after funding him once, watching him and Zhang Yan fight to the death.
After all, it's still the hussar general who wants to be lazy, right? ”
"Hehe......" Li Zhi, who was guessed to be in the center, didn't care, nodded with a smile, and said, "You're right, Ben Hou really wanted to be lazy at the beginning.
But Wang Gouzi disappointed Ben Hou, so Ben Hou could only use this more troublesome method.
In fact, if Wang Gouzi can cooperate a little, maybe Benhou will really help him to become a prince all the way. ”
Speaking of this, he sighed and shook his head, "It's a pity that the dog can't hold up the wall with mud!"
He knew that Ben Hou had countless materials in his hands, but he would suddenly make a move to kill Ben Hou for the sake of face, how is this different from killing chickens and taking eggs? ”
The book is picked up again.
"Huh!" After Xia Houdun heard Li Zhidi's words, he sneered and said: "Actually, this is normal, that Wang Gouzi was originally just a commoner, and he had no knowledge, so he would inevitably be blinded by the immediate interests."
In fact, this is normal, there is not a single person as eloquent as the lord for hundreds of years.
Now that there are several heroes in the whole world who can be called the lord of one party, it is already rare to see in the ages, how can it be possible to find a random person with that kind of qualification? ”
"Yes" Li Zhiyan nodded, and after crying and laughing, he said: "A person like Wang Gouzi is a normal person, and it is really difficult for Benhou to compare him with Brother Meng De." ”
In fact, Li Zhi figured out a lot of things before going to bed yesterday.
When he first came to Yanzhou and saw Wang Gouzi, he subconsciously leaned Wang Gouzi towards Cao Cao's body.
He felt that as the lord of one party, Wang Gouzi would always have a few similarities with Cao Cao.
And later, the reason why he was disappointed was because he felt that Wang Gouzi would not be able to lift shoes for Cao Cao!
Actually, all this is because he is too demanding!
Like Wang Gouzi, he is a serious Han civilian.
Words such as greedy and cheap, no foresight, conservative in doing things, forgetting the big righteousness when seeing small profits, etc., can be used on Wang Gouzi.
Although it sounds like Wang Gouzi is very bad, but this is a normal civilian!
Vision determines the future!
Wang Gouzi hasn't seen too many things at all, his vision is very narrow, and it can be regarded as shit luck to have this kind of power now, you can't ask too much of him.
"Lord, lord! It's a big deal......" Just when Li Zhi and Xiahou Dun were soaking in the hot springs comfortably, Yang Ying was holding a pigeon and running towards here with a shout.
Hearing this, Li Zhi squinted his eyes and asked lazily, "Boxiong, what's the matter?" Don't be in a hurry, say it slowly, the sky won't fall. ”
"Huhu ......" Yang Yingwen also took a few deep breaths, then handed a note to Li Zhi and said: "According to the report from the spies in the city, after resting for a night, the king and the dog plan to gather a large army to crusade against us and others. ”
"What?! Is that king dog crazy?! When Xiahou Dun heard this, he immediately sat up from the water, his face full of astonishment.
As long as you are not a fool, you can see that Zhang Yan will come to crusade against Wang Gouzi is inevitable.
In that case, why didn't Wang Gouzi honestly train soldiers in the city, but instead came to crusade against them at a critical moment?
What is the difference between Wang Gouzi doing this and dying together?
Li Zhi was also taken aback after receiving this news, he thought for a while, then reacted, and asked Yang Ying, "Boxiong, how many people are there?" ”
"On this expedition, Wang Gouzi seems to have some secret weapon, and he only brought less than 20,000 people."
"He's got a fart secret weapon!" After Li Zhi heard Boxiong's words, he smiled bitterly, patted his forehead helplessly, and his face was speechless.
"Does the hussar general know why the king and the dog are on the march?" Seeing Li Zhi's expression, Xiahou Dun immediately asked anxiously.
"That's right" Li Zhi nodded with a wry smile and said, "The reason why Wang Gouzi went out at a critical juncture is because he underestimated the enemy!"
He thinks that we and the others are very easy to deal with with only a few thousand people, and the reason why they failed yesterday was because they didn't have an engineering ladder.
In Wang Gouzi's opinion, if they have engineering equipment, they can send one or two thousand people to defeat us.
Therefore, Wang Gouzi probably wants to defeat us first, and then extort a little more materials from Ben Hou, so that it will be easier to deal with Zhang Yan. ”
"......" After Xia Houdun heard Li Zhi's words, his face was also speechless.
He was really convinced by the sassy thoughts in Wang Gou's head, why did he think that they would fail if they occupied a favorable position?
Li Zhi didn't know what to say now, he really didn't want to fight with Wang Gouzi.
Because every time Wang Gouzi's soldiers have more, they can add a little more trouble to Zhang Yan.
If Wang Gouzi folded all the elite army in his hands here, then how could he fight against Zhang Yan?
But Li Zhi had to attack Wang Gouzi, Wang Gouzi was bullied to the door, if he didn't fight back, wouldn't he have to be restrained?
"Alas......" After making up his mind, Li Zhi let out a long sigh, and asked Xiahou Dun helplessly: "Miaocai, didn't Benhou ask someone to reinforce the city wall at the mouth of the valley with a lot of water before going to bed yesterday?" Have you hardened it? ”
"It's been reinforced" Xiahou Dun nodded when he heard this, and said: "Although the valley is very warm, the valley mouth may be because of ventilation, it is very cold, colder than the outside, once it is stained with water, it will immediately freeze."
Therefore, yesterday in the process of reinforcement, a certain family accidentally splashed people with a lot of water, and now the city wall is about five zhang high and about one zhang thick, and it is no different from the city walls of those male cities. ”
At this point, he paused and sighed, "To tell you the truth, if it weren't for the fact that the ice melts in the spring, a certain family would have felt that this kind of wall would be stronger than the masonry walls we have forged. ”
"That's for sure" After Li Zhi heard Xiahou Dun's words, he nodded as a matter of course and said: "In the case of extreme cold, the hardness of the ice formed by the water is not lower than that of some natural marbles.
In addition, because it is made of water condensation, it has a very high degree of adhesion to the earth.
It can be said that in addition to the disadvantage of being easy to melt, this kind of ice wall is ten times more powerful than ordinary city walls! ”
After finishing speaking, Li Zhi sighed, stood up from the hot spring, and while putting on his clothes, he instructed Xiahou Dun: "Since the ice wall has been prepared, it will be much easier for me to defend the city."
After a while, you divide the brothers into two groups, and you first take more than 1,000 brothers to garrison the city wall.
Remember, don't fight the enemy while you're stationed, just let them get off the walls. ”
After saying this, Li Zhi suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly advised: "By the way, this city wall is made of ice, which is very smooth, when you go up, it is best to tie more dry branches under your feet." ”
"No!" After hearing Li Zhi's order, Xiahoudun answered, then stood up and hurriedly put on his clothes.
After he finished dressing, he didn't say much, and walked vigorously in the direction of the city wall.
After he left, Li Zhi sighed and asked Yang Ying, who was standing aside, "Boxiong, if you have anything else to say, hurry up." ”
In fact, when Yang Ying came here just now, he glanced at Li Zhizhi.
Seeing this, Li Zhi immediately understood, I am afraid that Yang Ying has something inconvenient to say in front of Xiahou Dun.
After thinking about this, Li Zhi was a little unhappy in his heart.
Because in his opinion, Xiahou Dun and him are already one of the same people, what can't he say in front of him?
But Li Zhi didn't refute Yang Ying's face, so he sent Xiahou Dun to defend the city.
"Lord Qiqi, the spies in the city heard a very important message, but this information really can't be heard by General Xiahou, so his subordinates ......" Yang Ying saw Li Zhi's face showing displeasure, so he hurriedly explained.
After Li Zhi heard this, he frowned and interrupted: "Okay, don't talk this nonsense, you better hurry up and tell me what the news is." ”
"The lord of Qiqi, the spies in the city heard that the king dog was from an extraordinary background, and he was accepted as a righteous son by the father of Cao Gong after he got rid of the great difficulty.
And now, the reason why he can have this achievement is also thanks to the funding of Mrs. Cao. ”
"What?!" Li Zhi was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then he stared at Yang Ying tightly and asked, "Is the news accurate?" ”
"Accurate!" Yang Ying nodded seriously and said, "After the spies found out about this matter, they sneaked into Wang Gouzi's mansion overnight.
In that mansion, many letters were found between Wang Gouzi and Old Lady Cao.
After handwriting comparison, we can basically determine the accuracy of this matter. ”
"Cao Song actually intervened......" Li Zhi rubbed his eyebrows with a headache, his face was speechless.
He was now about to give up Wang Gouzi, but he didn't expect Wang Gouzi to have such a background.
