Chapter 209 Guan Yu talks about soldiers
Now under the governance of Liu Cong, Zhuge Liang, Liu Ba, Sun Gan, Mi Zhu and other literati are in full swing in Xiangyang. And Liu Cong targeted Guan Yu, who was under house arrest, and it had been a few months since the last meeting, Liu Cong thought that the last suppression should have touched the arrogant Guan Yu.
And during this period of time, Zhao Yun would come to meet Guan Yu every month, and Guan Yu also knew what Liu Cong did in Xiangyang, especially Xu Shu and Yi Yuan and others were reused by Liu Cong, which touched Guan Yu a lot. After all, people are greedy for a better life. When he was first arrested, Guan Yu only wanted to die quickly but couldn't. Nearly a year has passed, and the courage to just die quickly is gone, and then the hatred for Liu Cong has faded.
This time, Liu Cong obviously came prepared, he knew that in addition to being a good martial artist, Guan Yu relied on it, that is, he thought that he had more military books and knew strategy than Lu Bu, Zhang Fei and others. Liu Cong wanted to start from here to further defeat Guan Yu's mental defense.
"General Guan, someone recommended you to me a few days ago, saying that in addition to your good martial arts, you also know a little about the art ......of war, I felt strange, I came to take a look, and I hope the general will give you advice" Liu Cong said that he was asking for advice, but there was no respect between the words, Guan Yu was furious: "I read all the military books, what do you know as a child?" ”
Liu Cong also pretended to be angry when he saw that the excitement would be useful: "You said that you read all the military books, I want to see if you know Qizheng, Slow Disease, Hypony, Advance and Retreat, Interests, Movement, Rigidity and Softness, and the Way of Existence and Nothingness, but I didn't expect that you are just a reckless man." "Liu Cong naturally read the book of war before he crossed, and the experience of countless people in the future generations will certainly not lose to Guan Yu, and he still has this confidence, so he specially came to pick Guan Yu who he thinks is better than ordinary generals. Because in Guan Yu's opinion, Liu Cong is just a gentleman, and he can read a few books at a young age, so he actually wants to get an axe?
Guan Yu looked at Liu Cong's long list of new words that had been prepared for a long time, and asked in shock: "What is Qizheng, Slow Disease, Virtuality and Reality, Advance and Retreat, Benefits, Movement, Rigidity and Softness, and the Way of Existence?" ”
Liu Cong replied: "Governing the country with righteousness, using troops with odds, and the crowd of the three armies can make those who are invincible to the enemy without defeat, and it is also strange." To coincide, to win. Specifically, it is positive to meet the enemy head-on, and it is strange to maneuver and cooperate; The light is positive, and the darkness is strange; Stillness is positive, movement is strange; Advance is positive, retreat is strange; The first out is positive, the last out is strange...... - general, conventional, ordinary strategy and tactics are positive, special, changing, rare strategies and tactics are strange. ”
Guan Yu sighed secretly in his heart, and his expression was also shocked, because Liu Cong's words quoted Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching, Sun Tzu's Art of War, and some theories that he had never heard of, which were the results of later generations' research on Sun Tzu's Art of War. This kid...... Guan Yu began to suspect that he had underestimated Liu Cong before, so his attitude was a little calmer, and he asked Liu Cong for other aspects of knowledge, such as alleviating illness, virtual reality, advance and retreat, interests and harms, movement, rigidity and softness, and the truth of existence and non-existence.
Liu Cong just smiled and didn't answer, because he only prepared this thing, and besides, he didn't come to give Guan Yu a basic lesson in military theory, he came to subdue Guan Yu, the first thing he had to do was to break Guan Yu's proud heart, and then let him slowly worship himself, even if it wasn't worship, it was only possible to look up to a few points.
Guan Yu had no choice but to discuss the way of Qizheng with Liu Cong. Liu Cong was prepared. asked Guan Yu to set up a virtual camp, and he guarded Liu Cong's attack.
In history, Guan Yu is known for his good defense, and he has to face the double attack of Cao Wei and Dongwu during this period of time in Jingzhou, which is beyond the ability of ordinary people, Liu Bei takes Zhang Fei to attack every place he goes, so that Guan Yu can take care of his home, in addition to trust, presumably defense is also what Guan Yu is good at, or Guan Yu's own defense is stronger than offensive ability!
Well, since you're good at it, I'm going to break your faith in what you do best. This is Liu Cong's conspiracy!
Guan Yu put a book slip on the book table, which represents the camp he set up.
"Do you have water next to this camp?" Liu Cong asked with a strange smile.
"There's water." Guan Yu didn't know why Liu Cong asked this question, and replied proudly.
"I will block the flow of water, and when the river is full, I will flood your camp." There are many achievements in the history of this matter, Guan Yu once flooded the Seventh Army, surrendered to the ban, and killed Pang De. When Cao Cao marched south, Liu Cong once sent people to block and then comb in the upper reaches of the Baihe River and drowned many people in Cao Ren's pioneer camp.
"No water!" Guan Yu immediately changed his words.
"The army will be defeated after three days without water, and I will surround you on all sides and not let you take water. In three days I will send someone to the camp and cut your neck. Liu Cong looked at the red-faced Guan Yu and smiled. Science shows that a person can survive for up to seven days without water, and this march is a battle, three days without water, basically no combat effectiveness, lying on the ground waiting for death.
"There is no water, I dig a well." Guan Yu blushed and said roughly.
"I'll wait quietly for you to dig out the water?" Liu Cong smiled and said, "You can dig water in a place, you think you are a god." If there is not enough water to drink, will your army be in civil strife? ”
At this time, Guan Yu fell into deep thought, digging the well was just a temporary quibble for him, and he sent someone to dig first, not to mention whether he could dig out the water, if the enemy attacked the camp, or if the water was not enough to drink, wouldn't it be civil strife? I can't see that Liu Cong looks very ruthless, didn't he rely on luck to repel Cao Cao?
"Is there a mountain?" Liu Cong then asked.
"Or there is a mountain" Guan Yu will learn to be obedient, and replied hesitantly.
"I led my troops to attack from the mountain downward, like a rock collapsing, how can you resist?"
"I'm setting up a village on the mountain." Guan Yu was already very angry, and his attitude was not very good.
"There is no water on the mountain, I surround it on all sides, and the trap will trap you to death." Back to the problem of no water, although Liu Cong was a little quibble, Guan Yu couldn't understand what was wrong for a while, he knew that Liu Cong's statement was not enough to convince him, but he just couldn't find a reason to refute it.
In fact, it is no wonder that if Guan Yu had treated Liu Cong as a fierce rival from the beginning, he would have calmly wanted Liu Cong to deduce that he would never have been in the embarrassing situation everywhere now. But Liu Cong didn't give Guan Yu a chance to reflect, and pursued after the victory. In this way, Guan Yu defended more than ten times, and Liu Cong and I broke through. Guan Yu, who was extremely angry, asked for an exchange of offense and defense.
"Ru Li Village, there is no water and no mountains next to it," Guan Yu said a little proudly.
"I wander outside your fortress with cavalry, and from time to time I send arrows to your battalion, and let the cavalry use a sleeve pole to cover the fence of your fortress wall, pull down the wall and enter your village with infantry attacks." Liu Cong smiled and said to Guan Yu: "If you set up a village in a place where I don't want you to set up a village, I will keep harassing you?" If you can set up a village, it must be in the place I have chosen for you, the place where I want you to build a village. At that time, you were a fish and I was a sword, not a slaughter. ”
"Ru Lizhai, there is no water and no mountains next to it, I will attack it first" Guan Yu said viciously.
"I dug traps all over the camp, and the traps were full of pickets. If you come to attack me, I will let the camp out, do you dare to enter the village? It was another rogue trick, but it made Guan Yu speechless.
Subsequently, Guan Yu attacked Liu Congli's stockade about ten times according to Liu Cong's attack method, and Liu Cong cracked them one by one. At this time, Guan Yu had completely become a mentally retarded person, and he kept muttering: "You can't attack, you can't defend it, what should I do?" "I didn't know that I had fallen for Liu Cong's prepared tactics such as stealing beams and changing pillars.
However, Liu Cong couldn't bear to see where Guan Yu was talking to himself alone and couldn't find a way to solve it, it was time for him to regain his confidence...... Otherwise, he has really become a mentally retarded person, without the slightest confidence, what is the use of accepting him? Liu Cong immediately changed the topic: "What is the military?" ”
This is Guan Yu's director again, and he immediately talked endlessly. Liu Cong didn't interrupt and pretended to listen very seriously. This made Guan Yu immediately proud, and kept glancing at Liu Cong.
After a long time, Liu Cong got up to say goodbye, and sighed strangely before leaving: "Hey, General Guan is a martial artist, and he is familiar with military books, but he has the wrong master, and the hero is useless, it's a pity, it's a pity, ......it's a pity, it's a pity, it's a pity" Liu Cong seemed to be talking to himself, but Guan Yu, the audience behind him, was stunned!
This Liu Cong is also bad enough, Guan Yu has just established a little self-confidence, and he hit him viciously, which means that no matter how good you Guan Yu is, if you don't submit to me, you can only be placed under house arrest here for the rest of your life!
