Chapter Twenty-Three: Fighting Without Fighting
An army of millions descended from the sky without warning, and it was no wonder that there was no panic.
When Liu Xuan arrived at the meeting hall, Zhuge Liang, Shui Jing, Xu Shu, and Cui Zhouping gathered together to argue, and when they saw Liu Xuan enter the door, they finally quieted down.
It turns out that these celebrities who are used to seeing big scenes will also panic.
"Can anyone tell me where the million-strong army out there came from?" Liu Xuan sat on the main seat and asked straight to the point.
The four powers glanced at each other, and Zhuge Liang said: "Lord, Cao Cao has a strategist under him, named Guo Jia, this person has a unique ability to 'shrink the ground into inches', and in just two days, Cao Cao's million-strong army was transported to Fancheng." ”
Liu Xuan was stunned for a moment, and secretly surprised, isn't this shrinking of the ground into inches a practice in the cultivation realm.
And this trick is too awesome, casually run an army of millions, so how can other people's battles be fought?
To put it more exaggeratedly, if you directly transport the army to the opponent's city, will the game still be played?
Liu Xuan thought about it and couldn't help asking: "I have a question, Guo Jia has such a skill, why didn't he transport the army directly to the city, so that he didn't have to fight?" ”
Shui Jing hugged his fists and said: "The lord laughed, shrinking the ground into inches is just to speed up the march, not a real immortal art, if you encounter obstacles, you still have to stop, if you are really rampant, it is a blink of an eye to Fancheng, why take two days." ”
Liu Xuan nodded, so there would be nothing wrong with it.
If you really want to go wherever you want like Mondo, you can just let Cao Cao be the emperor.
"I see, then do you have a strategy to retreat from the enemy now?" Liu Xuan asked.
Xu Shu said: "Lord, Cao Cao's trip is a rapid march, and the sergeants have not yet gained a stable foothold, so I intend to lead the army to raid in the starry night while they are still resting." ”
Cui Zhouping said: "The strategy of the surprise attack is correct, but I think it is inappropriate, Cao Cao's troops are fifty times ours, even if we break the enemy by 500,000, what will happen to the remaining 500,000, so Fancheng will be lost." ”
Xu Shu thought for a moment and said, "Zhou Ping is reasonable, my method is really inappropriate." ”
Shui Jing said: "Yuan Zhizhi's opinion, it should be done as a last resort, but I have just come out of the mountain, and I have not built an inch, how can I give my life so easily."
In my opinion, we should hold on, first let Kong Ming use the 'empty city strategy' to drag Cao Jun, and then immediately go to Jingzhou to ask Liu Conggongzi to send troops to help.
On the other hand, please ask Wei Yixiao to go to Jiangxia to ask Liu Qi Gongzi for help, when our three armies are in one place, we will definitely be able to hold Fancheng, as long as we wait until the next round of rainy season comes, Cao Jun can only retreat. ”
Zhuge Liang's skill is actually an 'empty city plan', so it is indeed a way.
Zhuge Liang said: "I also agree with the method of my predecessors, what do you think, lord?" ”
At present, the environment has changed greatly, everyone has strengthened against the sky, and Cao Cao's generals are innumerable, and the ghost knows what bells and whistles skills he has, so he can only stabilize his hand like this first.
Liu Xuan said: "Just do what Mr. Shuijing said, then Mr. Lao will go to Jingzhou." ”
"The lord can rest assured that he will live up to his mission." Shui Jing got up and said.
Cui Zhouping also got up and said, "Lord, I want to accompany my predecessors to Jingzhou." ”
Liu Xuan nodded decisively in agreement.
After Shui Jing and Cui Zhouping left, Xu Shu ran to count the soldiers and horses, and Liu Xuan and Zhuge Liang climbed the city gate tower to inspect the enemy.
"Kong Ming, how many days can your empty city plan delay Cao Jun?" Liu Xuan asked Zhuge Liang.
Zhuge Liang bent down and said: "Lord, the technique is just beginning, and the opponent is Cao Cao, I'm afraid three days is already the limit." ”
"And when do you expect reinforcements to arrive?" Liu Xuan asked again.
"Seven days at least." Zhuge Liang said.
This sentence exploded like a thunderbolt on Liu Xuan's scalp like a thunderbolt on a sunny day.
The empty city plan can delay Cao Cao for three days, but the reinforcements will take seven days, and in the middle four days, Fancheng is estimated to be blown up by Cao Cao.
"Then why didn't you just say that? Does he know about the water mirror? Liu Xuan said hurriedly.
"Back to the lord, the water mirror doesn't know, if the water mirror knows, it won't be a big move." Zhuge Liang said truthfully.
"So we probably won't be able to wait for the water mirror to come back?" Liu Xuan said.
"It's not possible, it's certain, including Liu Qi's army, and it's the same." Zhuge Liang said.
Liu Xuan's legs weakened and he took two steps back.
This Nima, if the two reinforcements can't catch up, one or two thousand people will fight a million.
If it had been a day ago, it might have worked, but now it is not possible.
"Be careful, lord!" Zhuge Liang hurriedly stepped forward to help.
Liu Xuan waved his hand and signaled that he was fine: "Kong Ming, then why didn't you say it in the hall just now, could it be that you have other plans in mind?" ”
Speaking of this, Liu Xuan's eyes were suddenly full of hope.
Who is Kong Ming?
Really Wolong!
Win Kong Ming, win 100,000 male soldiers, this sentence is Cao Cao's most common mouth.
Zhuge Liang said: "Lord, whether Mr. Shui Jing is here or not has no impact on the battle between the two armies, and I don't want him to give his life in vain."
Of course, as the lord said, there are indeed some strategies against the enemy in his heart, and we may not necessarily be Cao Cao's opponent. ”
"If you have any good ideas, tell me quickly!" Liu Xuan was excited.
Kong Ming nodded and said, "My lord, Cao Cao personally took command of the expedition this time, so someone must be responsible for stabilizing the rear, and his two advisors, Xun Yu and Cheng Yu, did not arrive.
And the generals under his command are only Cao Ren, Xu Chu, Xu Huang, Zhang Liao, Zhang He......"
Zhuge Liang's name has not yet been counted, Liu Xuan is already numb in the scalp, and almost all of the most capable generals are here, which is also called only?
Is it because you Zhuge Liang has a big heart, or am I Liu Xuan unable to lift the knife?
Zhuge Liang said embarrassedly: "Lord, there are a lot of enemy generals, but you also underestimate yourself too much, right?" What's more, there are also your two brothers, in Liang's opinion, if you fight alone, no one like Cao Cao will be able to return ten rounds under you. ”
"The question is, why are people fighting with me alone?" Liu Xuan was depressed.
That's right, but who is stupid to play heads-up with you with more fights and less?
"Don't worry, Liang has his own clever plan, the lord just don't use all his strength when fighting with Cao Cao's generals, and try his best to delay the time, so it is very likely to delay until the reinforcements arrive." Zhuge Liang said.
"You said it earlier, you Kong Ming, scared me to death." Liu Xuan breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'm sorry lord, I'm talking too much, I must pay attention in the future." Zhuge Liang said.
Liu Xuan waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's set up an empty city plan first, and drag him for three days." ”
Zhuge Liang said: "Lord, I suggest that you should fight against General Cao first, in case Cao Jun suddenly attacks, I will use techniques again, so it is safer." ”
Just do it, don't even give people a chance to breathe a sigh of relief, Liu Xuan is really helpless: "Okay, you look at the arrangement, I'll go get the weapon first, and go out of the city directly to fight the enemy general in a while." ”
"Okay lord!" Zhuge Liang responded.
