Chen Gong opened his mouth, not knowing how to answer Sun Ce's words.

Whether it was his Chen Gong plan or Xin Bi's design, there was no doubt about it: this was a trap against Sun Ce, and Sun Jian was just a bait. Even if there were some differences before, they have now disappeared.

The question now is, if Sun Ce knows what they want to do, how much point does this plan have? Do you know whether Sun Ce fell for the plan, or if Sun Ce will plan the plan? When Sun Ce comes, will they be able to defeat Sun Ce and kill Sun Ce as they wish?

Just like now, Sun Ce is outside the camp, with only two horsemen by his side, does anyone dare to go out of the camp to fight?

Chen Gong's gaze was in the distance, there were a few fires in the distance, and there were still some people faintly, but how many there were, and where, no one knew clearly. Wen Chou's personal guards said that Sun Ce had a thousand cavalry, and the scout said that the number of Sun Ce's cavalry was unknown, but in general, a thousand cavalry should be the limit. According to common sense, since Sun Ce took the initiative to come to the door to challenge, Cao Ang should send people out of the camp at this moment, outflank the two wings, and fight back. But Yin Jian, who is not far from the defeat of Wen Chou, who dares to take the initiative to fight in such an unclear situation?

Seeing that Chen Gong was slow to answer, Cao Ren was furious and shouted: "Sun Ce, Hugh is arrogant, and I will fight you to the death." As he spoke, he ordered Yu Ban to lower the drawbridge. Yu Ban turned a deaf ear. Cao Ren was so angry that he scolded, and Cao Ang hurriedly held it down and persuaded him with good words.

Sun Ce laughed, raised his hand, turned the horse's head, and disappeared into the night with Guo Wu and Xu Sheng.

Cao Ren's scolding rang behind him for a long time.

Sun Jian's camp and Cao Ang's camp were only four or five miles apart, and the fire of Cao Ang's camp was still faintly visible, and Sun Ce had already arrived at the door of Sun Jian's camp. Ma Chao and others have already entered the camp, Zhu Zhi is arranging for someone to unload the materials on the back of the pack horse, Sun Jian himself is neatly dressed, and is about to go out of the camp to respond, seeing Sun Ce returning, he is relieved, greeted him, patted Sun Ce on the shoulder, wanted to say something, but did not say anything.

Sun Ce, Sun Jian, and Zhu Zhi saluted, and Qin Song stepped forward to salute again, looking ashamed. "Song Zhi is scheming, the deadly prince is in danger, and the capital crime is a capital crime."

Sun Ce comforted: "Victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, why should Wen Biao blame himself so much." Besides, it is only a stalemate at the moment, and it is too early to say defeat, and there is no need to rush to ask for guilt. ”

Sun Jian said: "Bo Fu, Wenbiao reminded me that it was I who killed Bian Rang on impulse, which led to such a point. ”

"It's the same whether you kill or not. We have been operating in Yuzhou for so long, isn't the Yuzhou family the opposite? Ah Weng, if you have to say that there is a mistake, your fault is not to kill the side, but to underestimate the insidiousness of the Changyi family, thinking that they can really support you and not guard against them. ”

Thinking of the ruthlessness of the Changyi family, Sun Jian gritted his teeth in anger. The father and son returned to the big tent of the Chinese army, exchanged information, and listened to Sun Ce's ambush of Wenchou's battle, Sun Jian was full of praise, and said to Sun Yi in a loud voice: "Look, this is the benefit of overcalculation, if you only know how to fight and rush, can you fight such a subtle ambush battle?" ”

Sun Yi smiled awkwardly and muttered twice. Sun Ce was puzzled, and asked a few words, Sun Jian said Sun Yi's opinion of him, and then said: "Bo Fu, in my opinion, you still know how to teach, and Ah Yi will follow you in the future, and if you follow me again, it will be abolished." ”

Sun Ce smiled and pulled Sun Yi over. "Why, do you think that the eldest brother is like a businessman, he must compare his baht, and he can't spend a lot of money, and he is not happy enough?"

Sun Yi shook his hand again and again. "No, no, I didn't say that."

"Actually, it's not wrong to say that, our Sun family is from a business background, so there's nothing to be ashamed of. I also like the arrogance of throwing a lot of money, if there were a million soldiers, I would have fought the Yellow River now and drowned Yuan Shao with the tactics of a sea of people. But do we have it? ”

Sun Yi laughed.

"Ah Yi, do you think there is a big difference between ninety percent and eighty percent?"

"It's only one percent short, it shouldn't be big."

"If the two armies face each other, each has 10,000 people, one side loses 10% each time, and the other side loses 20% each time, and the two sides fight four together, how much is left on both sides?"

Sun Yi blinked his eyes and said with a wry smile: "Big brother, I know it's wrong, don't embarrass me." One in two, I can still figure it out, these four are too many, right? ”

"Okay, you can do the two first."

Seeing Sun Ce's insistence, Sun Yi knew that he couldn't escape, so he had to count with his fingers, and after a long while, he said: "There are 8,100 people left on one side, and 6,400 people left on one side." ”

Sun Ce looked at Sun Yi and smiled without saying a word. Sun Yi was puzzled, with an innocent expression. "What, isn't that right?"

"Of course not." Qin Song smiled bitterly and said: "Major General, when the war started, there were 10,000 people on each side, and they were evenly matched, so one side lost one percent, and the other side lost two percent. After the first reunion, there will be 9,000 on one side and 8,000 on the other, and the casualty gap between the two sides will be even greater. In the event of a re-battle, the losses of the superior side will be less than 10%, and the losses of the inferior side will be greater than 20%. ”

Sun Yi suddenly realized and slapped his thigh. "yes, how did I forget that. Big brother, you can't blame me for this, it's you who didn't make it clear. ”

Sun Ce smiled. "What Mr. Wenbiao said is too complicated, let's keep it simple, just if what you said is right. You then calculate, what is the result after the three, and what is the result after the four. ”

Sun Yi made a bitter face and continued to calculate, even if this was obviously beyond his calculation ability, he broke his fingers for a long time and failed to give the result.

At this time, Zhu Zhi walked over quickly, his face covered with sweat. "Major General, is that all, is there anything else behind?"

"This is the first batch, first solve the urgent need, last for three or five days, and more food will be delivered at the meeting."

"Three or five days isn't enough, right?" Zhu Zhi's eyes were puzzled. "A total of 1,000 stone of grain, even if the solar eclipse is halved, it can only be eaten for three days, not to mention that there are so many horses, you can't let the horses eat nothing, right? Eight hundred horses, ...... a day"

Sun Ce raised his hand and interrupted Zhu Zhi. "There are no eight hundred horses, only four hundred, and these four hundred will not remain in the camp, and I will leave early tomorrow morning. The 400 horses are meat, I have calculated, each horse can get about 500 catties of meat (1 Han Jin = 250 grams), 400 horses can get 200,000 catties of meat, each person can share about 10 catties, save it, it will not be a problem to eat for three or five days......"

"What?" Sun Jian and Zhu Zhi shouted in unison, their eyes widened. "Kill the horse?"

Sun Ce had already prepared and explained: "This is a pack horse, not a war horse. ”

"That's not going to work either." Sun Jian was anxious, and waved his hand vigorously, without doubt. "No horse can be killed except the wounded. Even if it's not a war horse, four legs are stronger than two, do you know how rare a horse is? Four hundred horses, kill them when you say kill, you are so generous? No, I don't agree. ”

Sun Ce said: "It's okay not to kill horses. A thousand stones of grain is just enough for so many people and horses to eat two meals, one meal tonight and one meal tomorrow morning. As long as you can run to Qi County alive, you will be considered successful. ”

"If I could, would I have waited until now?" Sun Jian sneered: "If it is as you say, it is not bad if half of the people can rush out." Even if they rush out, there is no response, there is no food, and there is a rout for a hundred miles, and there will be no more than thirty percent of the people who can safely reach Qi County. And ......" Sun Jian suddenly reacted. "What did you mean when you said you would leave early tomorrow morning?"
