Chapter Eighty-Eight: Adaptation to Water and Soil

Just when Xu Ding was thinking about Liu Bei, someone came to report: "Lord, there are people outside the camp who ask to see you." ”

At the end, the man paused and added, "That person asked to see him last time in Guangzong. ”

Zhang Ning!

And sure enough, she came.

This is what Xu Ding expected, and he has already explained it, otherwise the guards would not have added the latter reminder.

"Ask her to come in and tell Fu Hu to put the guard post a hundred paces away." Xu Ding commanded.

Soon Zhang Ning walked in by himself, because the people on the adjacent road were blocked by Dian Wei a hundred steps away.

As soon as he entered the camp, Zhang Ning said, "Brother Xu knows that I will come?" ”

Xu Ding looked at Zhang Ning, Zhang Ning's dress was the same as last time, but he didn't look so haggard.

Xu Ding replied: "I have released the news and gone out, Miss Ning'er will not miss her second uncle." ”

Zhang Ning was not surprised, and only said, "Brother Xu is willing to let go of the second uncle?" ”

Xu Dingdao: "That's right, as long as he withdraws from Xiaquyang, if my Donglai soldiers meet him, they can retreat and not fight, and let him be free." ”

All Xu Ding wanted was for Zhang Bao to withdraw from Xiaquyang.

This condition is simple, but it is also difficult.

Because Zhang Bao attaches great importance to Xia Quyang and regards it as the last base of the Yellow Turban anti-Han Dynasty, giving up here means not having a foundation.

Xu Dingdao: "Do you know why your father and others failed?" ”

Zhang Ning shook his head.

Xu Ding's thinking was too jumpy.

She couldn't keep up.

Xu Ding continued: "First, the enemy you are facing is too strong, your enemy not only has a huge official army, but also a powerful armed force in various places, and you are facing the crazy suppression of the entire profit class, so you will be outnumbered in the end. ”

Zhang Ningyi had a profound understanding of this, and the Yellow Turban Army was suppressed in this regard.

Then Xu Ding said: "Second: The organizers in your various places have no contact, no cooperation, and are fighting on their own, so they are broken by each other.

Third, there are mistakes in your combat methods, all of them only know how to stick to one city and one pool, or besiege and fortify the city for a long time, and fight with the officers and soldiers, and do not know how to use flexible tactical tactics, and do not take the initiative, and are always passively beaten, so they cannot support it for long. ”

I see.

Defeat is not unjust.

Zhang Ning felt a sense of relief.

It's always good to know why.

At least die clearly.

Therefore, according to Xu Ding's statement, the Yellow Turban Rebellion will only end up in defeat, which is doomed, so there is no psychological burden of luck.

Xu Dingdao: "So you can bring this to your second uncle, if he continues to be stubborn and defend Xiaquyang, then he doesn't need me to attack the city, and he will be consumed by others as soon as possible. ”

Xu Ding told the truth, in the post-Yellow Turban era, the Yellow Turbans everywhere learned to be obedient and used rogues to fight, which made the Han army tired and headaches.

In the end, it took about ten years to basically solve it.

After digesting Xu Ding's words, Zhang Ning thought for a long time, and then hugged his fists and said: "Thank you Brother Xu, with Brother Xu's words, I believe that the second uncle can wake up." ”

After speaking, Zhang Ning left, and Xu Ding did not stay.

At dawn the next day, Dong Zhuo beat drums and gathered generals to prepare to attack Xiaquyang.

Now he has gathered nearly seventy or eighty thousand soldiers and horses, which can be said to be more abundant than when Guangzong was in power.

Therefore, the whole person is more energetic, and he has the meaning of a long sword and a finger, and the head of the enemy chieftain.

It's just that when I waited for three quarters, the people hadn't arrived yet, especially the location that Xu Ding.

"What's the matter, why didn't Xu Ding come?" Dong Zhuo asked coldly.

As a result, someone came to report at this time: "General, Xu Taishou said that the Donglai soldiers have just arrived, and it seems that they are not accustomed to the water and soil, and everyone from the soldiers to the Taishou is in trouble, so I am afraid that they will not be able to participate in today's siege battle." ”

The horizontal flesh on Dong Zhuo's face twitched, and his face was almost black.

God doesn't fucking fit in.

The entire Donglai Army battalion company took Xu Ding to have a stomach upset.

Everyone below is also talking about it, obviously this is a bit ridiculous.

And Xu Ding didn't come, without the cannon fodder of the city-breaking pioneer, who would take it.

"Humph! Come on, come with me to the Donglai Army camp, I want to see if Xu Taishou is really having diarrhea, or if there is another reason. "Xu Ding, who said that he was going to attack, but now he wants to play tricks, Dong Zhuo is not so easy to deceive.

As a result, someone came to report at this time: "General, Xu Taishou sent someone to report that someone poisoned the Donglai army camp last night, and listened to the report of his subordinates, it seems that the troops from Youzhou did it." ”

Youzhou from you.

Everyone looked at Liu Bei, who seemed to be honest.

Here Liu Bei's family is from Youzhou.

And yesterday it seemed that Xu Ding and Liu Bei had a bit of gunpowder, as if they had a grudge.

Your sister's promise.

Liu Bei's heart was about to explode.

never expected Xu Ding to be so shameless and pour stolen water on him.

Liu Bei hurriedly came out to defend and said: "General, please also check clearly, the army of Beizhi has always been strict in military discipline, and has always had no grudge against the Donglai soldiers, how could they do such a reluctant thing." ”

Dong Zhuo nodded slightly, Liu Bei is indeed very honest, and there is no need to harm Donglai Army.

Dong Zhuo was about to speak, when someone came to report: "General, Xu Taishou sent someone to report, he said that Liu Xuande would definitely excuse himself and argue that there was no contradiction between the two of them, and he came to tell the general that he and Liu Xuande had an unpleasant conflict when they were in Youzhou, and he never thought that Liu Xuande would hold such a grudge and make such a heavy hand, please ask the general to be the master for him, and give the Donglai army justice." ”

Justice to your sister, you're still addicted.

Liu Bei scolded Xu Ding several times in his heart, and at this time, even Dong Zhuo was a little suspicious of Liu Bei.

The others even had the same expressions.

"I don't know what unpleasant things Xuande had with Xu Taishou in Youzhou." Li Su was a little resentful.

Xu Ding was finally cheated by him, and if he ruined his plan because of Liu Bei, a big-eared thief, then he would be unhappy.

So I asked.

Liu Bei wanted to prevaricate, but Dong Zhuo stared at him with a displeased face, so he had to bite the bullet and tell him about Xu Ding.

Of course, he tried his best to beautify himself to show that he was unintentional.

But everyone is preconceived, how can they believe Liu Bei's words.

Instead, it was a clear expression.

One by one, they pulled away from Liu Bei.

I never thought that Liu Bei, who was generous and benevolent, would be such a person who would repay his teeth.

Dong Zhuo, who was very optimistic about Liu Bei, also had a cold face and was slightly angry when he heard this, and returned to his position with his sleeves brushed.

Liu Bei secretly screamed badly, so he said: "General, Bei is indeed a little wronged, I don't know who framed Bei, but since the Donglai army can't fight today, then Bei is willing to lead the troops in front and break the city for the army." ”

Liu Bei was the pioneer of breaking the city.

Can he?

Dong Zhuo, Li Su and the other Xiliang troops were very suspicious.

Not everyone is Xu Ding, not everyone's troops are Donglai Army.

However, the generals of the other miscellaneous troops of the non-Xiliang Army were celebrating each other one by one, glanced at each other, and immediately understood, and all of them stood up and said:

"General, I think this matter is feasible, please give Xuande a chance to prove his innocence."

Liu Bei was cannon fodder, and it was not their turn to be on their heads this time, so there was nothing to be unhappy about, of course they had to come out to support Liu Bei.
