Chapter 653: Father and Son

Hearing the young man's tirade, the look of the middle-aged man became a little more solemn. How could that man in the prime of life not know...... How could the soldiers of the Liangzhou Army not know their powerful combat power...... The dilemma we are facing.

Regarding the long speech before the teenager, the middle-aged man did not express anything on his face, but he was full of praise in his heart.

The man in the prime of life, while worrying about Huarong City, was also very relieved in his heart, and secretly thought in his heart: Shao Xian is young, he has such a vision, and he can have such a military strategic talent, it is really a blessing for their Huo family, and the Huo family has a successor!

This middle-aged man is Huo Jun and Huo Zhongmiao, a native of Zhijiang in Nanjun County, Jingzhou. This young man is Huo Jun's son Huo Yi Huo Shaoxian. Huo Jun was ordered to guard Huarong City, although Huo Yi was not Liu Biao's subordinate, but in private, he helped his father to counsel military affairs.

[In ancient times, when men were weak in the year of the crown, there would be a table word. For the needs of the plot, Huo Yi's words were written out in advance. After all, Huo Yi was only fifteen years old. 】

"As You See ......"

Huo Jun didn't look in the direction of Huo Yi, he still stared at the Liangzhou Navy Army formation on the water surface of the big river outside the city, and his expression was full of solemn muttering: "Can my father defend Huarong City and defeat the Liangzhou army?" ”

Huo Yi shook his head slightly, and then turned his head to look in the direction of his father, his expression was a little naughty, and his tone did not have the previous solemnity, and he hesitated: "Does my father want to hear the truth, or ...... Want to hear something nice? ”

Huo Jun paused, and then, he turned his head to look at Huo Yi, with a little smile in his expression, and a little relaxed in his tone, and asked, "What is the truth?" What are the good words? ”

Huo Yi didn't rush to reply, but left a way back for himself in advance. Huo Yi said loudly with a smile on his face: "If the child says it, the father is not allowed to be angry, nor can he punish the child. ”

Huo Jun nodded, and assured with a solemn face: "What do you think, but it doesn't hurt to say it!" The Father will never chastise you! ”

"That's the boy, tell the truth!"

I saw it...... With the look on his father's face, Huo Yi's heart suddenly became steady, and then he said aloud with a smile: "The truth is ...... My father could not hold Huarong City, nor could he defeat the Liangzhou army. Good words are ...... As long as the soldiers work together, my father can hold Huarong City and force the Liangzhou army to retreat. ”

Huo Jun raised his head and sighed, his expression became solemn again, and he said in a deep voice: "Morale can not be discharged!" There is hope for fatherhood...... I didn't hear the truth from you! ”

I saw it...... The solemn look on his father's face, Huo Yi felt very uncomfortable. However, now, the predicament faced by Huarong City is far more severe than imagined. Although the truth is frustrating, it can also make people recognize the reality.

Huo Yi sighed again and again in his heart, hesitated for a few breaths, stopped talking a few more times, and finally said in a deep voice: "The child knows that his father is good at defending the city and defending and counterattacking!" It's just that...... Today, my father faces the ...... Che cavalry general Ning Chenghou! I'm afraid it's ...... My father had a heart...... And the force is insufficient! ”

Huo Jun still looked at the Liangzhou Army Naval Division outside the city, although he didn't say anything to answer, he nodded slowly.

"Who could have thought ...... A year ago, the more than 200,000 allied troops of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao were so powerful and majestic, but they were defeated by the Liangzhou army. ”

Huo Yi turned his head to look at Huo Jun, and said in a deep voice of relief: "Now, looking at the whole world, the princes who can compete with the Liangzhou army no longer exist!" Throughout the ancient and modern famous generals, their ability to use troops is higher than that of the Marquis of Ningcheng...... Almost nothing! The Marquis of Ningcheng is really a man of great talent and strategy that is rare in ancient times, and his father's defeat under the hands of the Marquis of Ningcheng is not considered to have insulted his father's reputation! ”

As Huo Yi's words landed, Huo Jun neither replied nor reacted on his expression. For a while, the two fathers and sons of the Huo family did not speak again, and the scene fell silent.

After a long time, Huo Jun seemed to have thought of something, turned his head to look at Huo Yi, and muttered, "If it is...... For his father, he asked General Liu Pan of Jiangling City for help, but was it too late? If General Liu Pan receives a message for help...... Will you come to the rescue? ”

"Father! It's too late...... If the Liangzhou army is bent on attacking the city, Huarong City will not last for half an hour. And besides...... In Huarong City, there is no fierce general of the three armies, who can escape the siege of the Liangzhou army? ”

Huo Yi shook his head, his expression was solemn, and he said in a calm voice: "Take a step back, even if you ...... It is useless for us to be able to smoothly transmit the military information here to Gangneung City. 'M afraid...... At that time, not only Huarong City will not be able to hold it, but the reinforcements of Jiangling City will also suffer a heavy blow from the Liangzhou army! ”

Huo Jun asked with a look of surprise on his face: "Oh...... How could the reinforcements of Gangneung City be hit hard? ”

"The news that the Liangzhou army marched to besiege Huarong City, whether it was known to General Liu Pan himself, or it was transmitted from Huarong City to Jiangling City. General Liu Pan is better ...... Don't raise troops to come to the rescue. ”

"If General Liu Pan leads his troops to help, he will definitely be defeated by the ambush of the Liangzhou army. If General Liu Pan is defeated by the Liangzhou army, it will be ...... overnight Jiangling City will inevitably fall to the Liangzhou army. ”

Huo Yi already had a thought in his heart, and immediately explained in a deep voice: "Once Jiangling City is broken by the Jingzhou army, all the defense lines south of Nanjun will collapse. After that, the Liangzhou army will go north unimpeded and besiege Xiangyang City. ”

After hearing Huo Yi's explanation, Huo Jun suddenly came to his senses, and the look on his face was helpless and more solemn.

"I see!"

Huo Jun pondered for five or six breaths, and then sighed in a deep voice: "If it weren't for my son's words to solve his doubts, I wouldn't have thought of it as a father...... The Liangzhou Army had such a wonderful plan. This time, the Liangzhou Army dispatched the Liangzhou Army on land and water to go south to Jingxiang, which is bound to win! Now it seems...... The situation facing the entire South County is really not optimistic! ”

"What my father said is very true!"

Huo Yi thought deeply and said: "Earlier, the Jingzhou Army could rely on the Hanshui and the Great River to block the northern army of the Liangzhou Army north of the Hanshui. Now, the Liangzhou Army has its own powerful naval division, and the only advantage that the Jingzhou Army has is gone, how can it stop the fierce generals of the Liangzhou Army? ”

Huo Jun also nodded approvingly.

Huo Yi hesitated for a few breaths, stopped talking a few more times, and finally groaned: "Father! Children have a saying, I don't know ...... When should it not be said? ”

Huo Jun turned his head to look at Huo Yi and said in a deep voice: "It's okay for my son to talk about it!" ”

Huo Yi paused, as if thinking about how to say it euphemistically.
