For three days in a row, the Liangzhou army did not move, and Xu Huang thought a lot. After that, he let his own soldiers scold the Liangzhou army and several of their generals at the head of the city, and just like that, more than a day passed.

Zhilu said that today, Xu Huang finally found something wrong, yes, if he can't find anything again, he really won't be the Xu Huang Xu Gongming of the five good generals.

In Xu Huang's opinion, if the Liangzhou army is temporarily suspended, this is true, but what is their intention? In the end, is it really to make yourself paralyzed and careless, and then give yourself a head-on blow, and want to break the Fang Ling, or do you have other purposes. In fact, if you think about it, apart from wanting to take the opportunity to attack Fangling, you really don't send out any other possibilities, isn't it?

Xu Huang found that he had thought too simple before, really, it wasn't that people had ceased fighting, but when he heard that he was going to take the opportunity to attack Fangling, that kind of thing, the Liangzhou army had done it, but in his own place, when he was so cautious, they didn't work.

So what exactly are they going to do? ——

In Xu Huang's thoughts, if the previous plan failed, then the truce should not continue, even if the city is attacked every day, for them, it is better than this. So since the Liangzhou army still has no action, and even its own soldiers have not taken any action to insult them so much at the head of the city, then it can only explain one problem. That is, the Liangzhou army is still looking for an opportunity, and they still have to deal with themselves.

As for what this opportunity is, Xu Huang also thought about it. To say that they have been waiting for their own paralyzing carelessness, this should be impossible, and it should not be, and it is not like it, so I think it is almost impossible. But even if it is this, then as long as you let your own soldiers always take strict precautions, as long as you are not careless, you will not underestimate the enemy. So in this case, I naturally wouldn't be afraid of the Liangzhou Army suddenly attacking or something, so I basically don't have to think about it anymore.

So what's next. Since the Liangzhou army temporarily ceased fighting, they were blocked because they suffered losses in Fangling before, so they stopped fighting. Could it be that they are waiting for reinforcements from Nan Zheng? To talk about it. It's really not impossible, but after that, Xu Huang basically ruled this out-

Why did you send this reinforcement out, it was because of what his lord said to himself before leaving.

His lord said clearly, "Gongming, if Zhang Ji sends more than 50,000 men, then it means that he will be determined to win Fangling, but this is unlikely." And if he sends 50,000 or less men, it means that he is against Fang Ling. It's not that they attach much importance to Hanzhong. It's also dispensable! ”

This is the idea of Cao Cao and the two major strategists, they think simply, if Zhang Jizhen wants to protect the house mausoleum, then he can directly send tens of thousands of Liangzhou soldiers to guard the house mausoleum, in that case, it is basically impossible for his side to seize the house tomb, or whether he can fight with it is not certain. But Zhang didn't do that, which means that his idea is not ordinary, and there are many possibilities.

For example, if you want to use your own soldiers to train your troops, this is the most likely, after all, Hanzhong has not fought for many years, if you retreat directly after entering Hanzhong, then they will have no chance to match your own side, so ......-

Of course, there may be other ideas, but no matter what the idea is, Cao Cao thinks that Zhang Ji actually doesn't attach much importance to Fang Ling, otherwise he wouldn't let Wang Ping take thousands of men and horses to guard the imperial city. So he didn't think that Zhang Ji would send a large army, this was what they thought of the most, so before Cao Cao left, he informed Xu Huang.

After all, it is true, because the positions of the two armies are different, so the city that is very important on their own side is really not necessarily valued by others. Now that Zhang Ji has sent troops, more of them, perhaps for the purpose of training, maybe for face, maybe for ......

There are many possibilities, but Xu Huanggo doesn't think that Zhang Ji will send troops again, or rather, he actually thinks that 50,000 horses is enough, so Wang Yan and them will not stop the war because they have to wait for reinforcements from Nanzheng.

So since this is not the case, then only the last one is left, and it is also what they are most likely to do at this time.

What is this, in fact, is very simple, that is, many people may use it, but it is not the one that needs to be used often, that is, the method of consuming food! ——

Yes, the plan to consume food, does this need to be said, the Fang Ling is besieged but not attacked, and the other party has no movement at all.

And how their own side insulted them, they did not react at all, they will not send troops to attack the city again, because they do not want their own losses, and they do not want their own casualties. After all, this own side is going to lose men and horses, and the consumption of grain and grass is naturally reduced, and as for them, as long as they attack the city, their archers will attack immediately, so even if they feint, as long as they rush to the city, there may really be losses, unless they have no defense, maybe it's okay.

Therefore, Xu Huang can already be sure, that is, Wang and their idea is to consume their own grain and grass, a good plan to consume food.

You say you can't do this, because you don't have so much food and grass. You come up with a plan to consume food, and I don't know whose food and grass are gone first. That is, this Liangzhou army, a group of losers, countless money and food, it is not a big deal to squander it once, this is really "a full man does not know that a hungry man is hungry", if these grains and grass are given to themselves. What a problem that has to be solved-

can't blame Xu Huang for thinking so, after all, the Liangzhou army is a very rich and wealthy army, and there is too much money and food. At least it's enough for them to spend.

As for the Yanzhou Army, it is definitely a relatively poor army, and it has experienced a shortage of military food before, so it can be said that the soldiers are starving. So Xu Huang still doesn't know the importance of the grain and grass in the Dao, which is like the soldiers of the Liangzhou Army, although he also knows the importance of the grain and grass in the Dao, but he has not experienced the life that the soldiers of Yanzhou have experienced.

One thing must be acknowledged. That is, only when you can't eat anything, and you can't go hungry. Only then do you realize how precious food is, and how delicious the food you eat. But you don't have to worry about these things every day, you don't like to eat every day. Even if you know that the Tao is precious. But it is definitely not deeply felt by people who are too hungry to die, this is a different experience, and there are different feelings.

Obviously, Xu Huang belongs to the one who has experienced it, so he scolded the Liangzhou army in his heart, if it is his own side, there is absolutely no such thing, they may also think. But there is no food and grass, isn't it—

Xu Huang was so angry that he couldn't do it, if it was anything else. He really wasn't like this, but this food-consuming plan made him almost explode. In his opinion, if they didn't teach the Liangzhou army a lesson, they would definitely not know how precious the grain and grass were, but with their own 10,000 people, they could still be opponents?

It's not that he doesn't have confidence, but this gap is there, when defending the city, okay, because there is a city as a barrier, as a support, so his own 10,000 horses can defend the tomb. But if he directly pulled out Lu and fought hard with the Liangzhou army, then he really didn't think he could win. Unless, unless the Liangzhou army has no weapons, it may be possible, but this thing, is it possible.

I heard that in order to prevent the opponent from robbing the camp at night, the Liangzhou army took strict precautions, and it was next to the soldier's arm, and you could reach it as soon as you stretched out your hand. And I heard that there are still many soldiers who are lying in clothes, and I don't know if the road is true, anyway, the rumors are like this.

Although Xu Huang also feels that this rumor is unreliable, how to say it, some things, "no wind and no waves", may not be very appropriate, anyway, it will not be groundless, it has to be guarded against-

On this day, Yang Ren and Wang Xiaosi finally arrived at the Fangling battlefield. And Wang Yan, Pang Rou and Wang Ping had already received the report from Tanma, so the three of them came out of the camp to meet them.

Of course, they didn't come to greet Wang Xiaosi, but to greet Yang Ren. After all, Yang Ren was sent by his own Taishou to escort the grain and grass, and he had to deal with them afterwards, so of course they had to go out to greet them in person. And although Yang Ren is a general, in addition to Wang Ping, Wang Yan and Pang Rou have known him for so many years, although the relationship is not good, but it is definitely not bad.

After all, there are only so many people in the whole Han Dynasty, so they are really familiar with each other, and the so-called "look down and don't see you when you look up", even if the relationship will not be good, but it is absolutely impossible to make the relationship how bad it is.

After everyone met, Wang Xiaosi spoke first, "Handsome, Xiaosi lives up to his mission!" ”

"Hahaha! Okay, you Wang Xiaosi will take a credit first, okay, you can step down! ”

"No!" ——

At this time, Wang Ling's mood can be said to be quite good, very good. Otherwise, if it's just you Wang Xiaosi, he and Yang Ren haven't spoken yet, you Wang Xiaosi will say first, if you want to catch up with Wang Yan when he is in a bad mood, Wang Xiaosi will definitely be unlucky. However, Wang Xiaosi does have merit, and as Wang Yan's henchman, it can be said that he really understands himself as a handsome, so naturally there is nothing to do, but he has a credit.

After that, Wang Yan smiled at Yang Ren and said, "General Yang Ren." What a disappointment! ”

Pang Rou and Wang Ping also hurriedly greeted Yang Ren, after all, Yang Ren came to help, so he had to be polite to others. Originally. I don't have a deep friendship, but we all do things for my father-in-law, so we are still very polite and polite to each other.

When Yang Ren heard this, he hurriedly said, "General Wang, General Heming, and General Zijun." Isn't it good? ”

The three of them nodded with a smile, and then said yes, the queen invited Yang Ren to the big tent of the Chinese army in the camp. Yang Ren naturally won't shirk.

"General Yang, please!"

"Please!"

"Please!"

"Three please!" ——

The four of them entered the big tent of the Chinese army, and after they sat down, Wang Yan asked Yang Ren, "General Yang is from Nanzheng." I don't know what Taishou thinks of a few of us. How is it evaluated? ”

Yang Ren smiled, "Even if General Wang doesn't ask, he will definitely say it in the next place, Taishou said ......"

Yang Ren didn't hide anything, and directly told Wang and the three of them how they discussed it in Nanzheng Taishou Mansion at that time. Originally, these things are not secret, let alone ulterior. So Yang Ren naturally has nothing to hide from the three of them.

In fact, in the entire Hanzhong, it should be said that there are two. How to say it, it can't be said to be a faction, anyway, Wang Ping, who has not been in the Liangzhou Army for a long time, is excluded first, Zhang Ji and Wang Yan and Pang Rou, their relationship is the best, and in the same way, he and Yan Pu are the closest, it's as simple as that. Of course, it doesn't mean that the relationship between himself and Wang and his wife will be bad, that's impossible, anyway, there must be far and near, and the friendship is thick and thin-

After hearing this, the three of them couldn't help but nod, and Wang Yan also said, "Thank you General Yang for telling me!" ”

Yang Ren smiled, "This is all as it should be, it should be done!" ”

Then he continued, "This time, Taishou sent 50,000 stone grains and grass to the three generals for tricks!" If it's not enough, Nan Zheng still has it, everyone should know, Nan Zheng has a lot of food! ”

After speaking, Yang Ren smiled, and the three of them also laughed when they heard it. Isn't that what is going on, Nanzheng's grain and grass, really, too much. If you want to say that Nanzheng has the most, it is definitely not a person, but the grain and grass, but it is very good to hide it too well, so ordinary people definitely don't know where the most grain and grass are in the Dao Dao. In fact, if you think about it, the cunning rabbit has three holes, not to mention that he is too good at guarding such a powerful person, and he must be not as good as himself.

Wang Yan nodded, and then said to Yang Ren, "What General Yang said is that if there is not enough food and grass, there will definitely be trouble for General Yang!" ”

Yang Ren hurriedly said, "This is all as it should be, it should be done!" ”——

In the evening, Wang Yan specially hosted a banquet to entertain Yang Ren, after all, although Yang Ren also belonged to his Taishou who was appointed to come here, he was the one who escorted the grain and grass, not the one who came to participate in the war. So it's also a guest, after all, it's not that he can't command others, but his people are mainly responsible for escorting grain and grass, and the rest, basically if he doesn't care, then he won't care. And on his side, there really seems to be nothing for Yang Ren to do, except for escorting grain and grass.

And Taishou let his men bring 3,000 men and horses, and these 3,000 men and horses don't seem to be of any other great use except for escorting grain and grass. Or if these 3,000 men and horses are gone, can't he send another 3,000 men and horses to Yang Ren and let him escort grain and grass? So these 3,000 people can't move, it's useless.

During the banquet, Wang and the others told Yang Ren about the actions of his own side and Xu Huang's Yanzhou army in these days, which was nothing more than that his side attacked Fangling two days ago, and the result was not dominant, and then his side ceased fighting and began to consume food, and the result has been until now, but looking at Xu Huang's appearance, he should be aware of it, but even if he is aware of it, what can he do, this is Yangmou, unless he Xu Gongming rushed out of Fangling with all the Yanzhou soldiers and killed his own camp, but ......-

He Xu Huang Xu Gongming may have so much courage, but his Yanzhou army does not have that combat power.

It's not that you underestimate them, just their 10,000 people, how can they be the opponent of their own 50,000 people? Therefore, the result of their attack on the camp was only one, and that was defeat. If you say that your own 50,000 people can't fight their Yanzhou army of 10,000 on flat land, then your own soldiers are really, go home and farm, the battlefield is not suitable for them.

Yang Ren listened to what a few people said, he also smiled, think about it, isn't that what is going on, the current situation is actually slowly changing. If it was Xu Huang's Yanzhou army in Fangling City that had the advantage before, now it is his own side that has begun to have the advantage.

Yes, "I have food in my hands, and I don't panic in my heart", is it still afraid that he will not succeed in the Yanzhou army. (To be continued......)
