Chapter 227: An Idea Came to Mind
After explaining the reason for the refusal, I saw Hua Xing suddenly grinning, and added:
"Besides, Zhang Fei has been scolding me from beginning to end, and he hasn't scolded you. I don't mind, why are you in a hurry? ”
"I, I...... Alas! Even if it's not scolding me, then I'm not comfortable, how can anyone like to listen to their master being scolded? ”
After replying angrily, Zhang Liao also knew that what Hua Xing said was true, so he didn't continue to argue, but opened his mouth to ask:
"So when are we going to be able to play? You don't really plan to stay behind closed doors and spend time with each other, do you? ”
According to the scout's report, the Youzhou army only brought a month's worth of grain and grass, and as long as it was delayed until the day when the opponent's food ran out, the Huaxing army would be able to win without a fight. Therefore, if it continues to be consumed like this, it can be regarded as a "good strategy to defeat the enemy".
But this method is too conservative and does not conform to Huaxing's style.
After listening to Zhang Liao's inquiry, I saw Huaxing shaking his head lightly and replied with a mysterious smile:
"Of course not! Don't worry, hehe, there will be a good show in a few days! ”
……
Two days later, in the evening, the Youzhou military camp.
Guan Yu had just walked out of the military tent and was about to go to the camp to inspect the circle, but he met Zhang Fei who came in a hurry.
About ten minutes ago, Zhang Fei had just finished chatting with him about military affairs and left the military tent, and at this moment he appeared here again, which really puzzled Guan Yu, so he stepped forward and asked:
"Third brother, why are you back again? Didn't you go to dinner? ”
"It's too late to eat, I have an important matter to discuss with my brother. Let's go inside and talk! ”
After pushing Guan Yu into the big tent without saying anything, seeing that there was no one in the tent, Zhang Fei said with excitement:
"I finally thought of a way to defeat Huaxing!"
When he just returned from the battlefield half an hour ago, Zhang Fei, who had been calling for nothing for a day, was depressed and depressed.
But in the blink of an eye, not only did he rise a lot of emotions, but he also said that he had thought of a good strategy to control the enemy, which surprised Guan Yu, and immediately frowned and asked:
"Third brother, you're not joking, are you? I haven't seen the kung fu of a stick of incense, and you have thought of a way to defeat the enemy? ”
"Hey, that's right!" Zhang Fei nodded and replied confidently:
"Although the fences in the village are very strong, they are made of wood. What wood is most afraid of is fire, so why don't we give him a fire? ”
On weekdays, Zhang Fei's worst thing is to give advice. You let him use his brain, as if he were going to kill him.
So before Zhang Fei spoke, Guan Yu was not optimistic about the "good strategy" that the third brother said.
However, after listening to Zhang Fei's words with his own ears, Guan Yu immediately changed his original opinion, not only his eyes lit up, but his face also swelled with surprise:
"Wonderful, wonderful! What the third brother said was very true. Ah! How come I never remembered such a simple truth? ”
After patting his thigh happily, in order to hurry up, Guan Yu was not in a hurry to praise Zhang Fei, but immediately summoned Lao Huang, who was in charge of purchasing armaments, into the military tent and asked him to quickly go to the neighboring village to purchase a batch of firewood and oil.
As long as he has time, he plans to implement this plan tomorrow and attack the village.
It wasn't until Lao Huang was ordered to leave the military tent that Guan Yu returned his attention to Zhang Fei, and said with a heartfelt admiration full of joy:
"Third brother, you are really getting more and more powerful! Not only is he far superior to his brother in martial arts, but now he is even stronger than his brother in terms of resourcefulness, and he really admires his brother! ”
After admiring from the bottom of his heart, he heard Guan Yu ask curiously:
"By the way, third brother, how did you come up with the plan of fire attack?"
Hearing the second brother ask about this, Zhang Fei's face suddenly crossed a touch of unnatural magic, and he lowered his head and whispered:
"Well, yes, I thought of it when I went to the stable to put the horses together."
"Let the horses go...... Can you come up with such a brilliant idea? ”
Seeing Zhang Fei's eyes fluctuating and his expression a little strange, Guan Yu quickly guessed something, and asked with a smile:
"I said, third brother, did you really come up with this plan? Or is there someone else who is pointing out? ”
didn't guess the truth so quickly until the second brother guessed the truth, Zhang Fei, who was not good at lying, immediately sighed:
"Alas! Sure enough, I still can't hide it from the second brother! That's right, I really didn't come up with this plan, it was told to me by Lao Zhou, who took care of the stables. ”
Half an hour ago, after Zhang Fei left the big tent, he didn't go directly to eat, but first went to the stable to check his mount, and happened to meet Lao Zhou, who was feeding the horses.
When the two were chatting casually, Lao Zhou inadvertently told Zhao Hujun what he said about the fire attack plan.
As soon as Zhang Fei heard that this plan was very good, he ran back to the big tent as soon as possible and informed Guan Yu of this good plan.
"Oh? This plan was actually come up with by Lao Zhou, who fed the horses? Oh, that's good! When I get back, I'll have to give him a good credit!" After listening to Zhang Fei's narration, Guan Yu, who was slightly surprised, nodded and stroked his beard and said.
But as soon as the words fell, I saw Zhang Fei shake his head again, and the expression on his face was a little stranger than just now:
"Ahem, second brother, although Lao Zhou told me this plan, he didn't come up with it."
"Huh? Not Lao Zhou? Hearing this, Guan Yu frowned suspiciously: "Who is that?" ”
"He is, he is......" After a while, he heard Zhang Fei sigh: "Alas! He is the Zhao Hujun who was kicked out of the military tent by me a few days ago. ”
"What? It turned out to be him? ”
Hearing Zhao Hujun's three words, Guan Yu was surprised at the same time, and a complicated color crossed his eyes.
……
At noon the next day, Lao Huang returned to the barracks with a large amount of firewood and oil.
After inspecting all the materials, Guan Yu nodded with satisfaction, and personally ordered eight hundred elite soldiers to set up a fire attack team, preparing to burn the enemy camp tonight.
In order not to doze off while performing their tasks, all the members of the group, including Guan and Zhang, slept soundly in the barracks that afternoon.
It wasn't until sunset that Guan Yu was awakened by the guards and walked out of his military tent.
But what he never expected was that when he walked out of the military tent, he was directly stunned by the scene in front of him!
He had only slept for six or seven hours, but now the barracks were very different from before he rested, there was white ice and snow everywhere, and the whole world was covered with snow!
When I called the guards to ask, I found out that not long after he fell asleep, it was snowing heavily in the sky, and it was getting heavier and heavier.
Six or seven hours had passed, and the snow on the ground was now more than a fist thick, and the whole world had turned snow-white.
If it is placed on weekdays, it will fall under the snow, and Guan Yu has nothing to complain about.
After all, it is a good year for Ruixue to be a good year, and a heavy snowfall in winter will also be very beneficial to the crops of the next year.
