Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Poisoner Jia Xu

Jia Xu looked at the little general in front of him who was not very old with mixed emotions, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart.

They were also born in poor families, and they can become the backbone of the imperial court at a young age. But what about yourself? People who are almost forty years old still have no achievements at all. Is fate really unfair to itself like this?

However, when his emotions gradually calmed down, he couldn't help but look at Mu Yi again, and he never said a word.

Mu Yi made a worried look and let out a long sigh: "There are thousands of strategies hidden in your chest, but you also need a stage to display them, if no one appreciates your talent, no matter how high your strategy is, there is no place to display it."

Speaking of this, Mu Yi pointed his finger at himself: "And a certain person is precisely the one who knows how to appreciate you, and will also give you the opportunity to display what you have learned all your life, I believe that it will not be a problem to worship the marquis with your talent, right?" Of course, if you are willing to fall, then there is nothing more to say!"

Jia Xu took a deep breath and sighed secretly: "Yes! If there is no one to be his backing, I am afraid that it will be a difficult problem to be a county magistrate in this desolate land in the west!"

Jia Xu kept struggling in his heart, calculating all the pros and cons. Today's Xiliang war situation is chaotic, except for those who rebelled, the only people he can take refuge in at present are Dong Zhuo and Mu Yi in front of him.

After this period of observation, Jia Xu has already seen what kind of person Dong Zhuo is, it is not an exaggeration to say that his eyes are above the top, Dong Zhuo only pays attention to his background, and he wants to mix his head under Dong Zhuo with a white body, which is even more difficult than ascending to the sky.

However, looking at the situation in the world, the trend of chaos has become apparent, and the only person who can make the world more chaotic is missing. Once the world is in turmoil, those who have heavy armies will immediately become princes.

The young man in front of him doesn't look very old, but he can climb from a white body to his current status, not the kind of straw bag that relies on the glory of his ancestors. If you follow him, you may be able to do something in the future.

Opportunities and dangers coexist, even if the common people farm, you can't plant a bucket, and you can't harvest a stone.

The current Mu Yi is just showing his edge, if he follows him now, he will become his hardcore confidant from now on. Even if this person has no ambitions, there is nothing wrong with leaving him in the future.

Thinking of this, Jia Xu also knew that it was time to express his position, so he pondered a little and bowed his hand and said, "Jia Xu greets the lord!"

Mu Yi almost jumped up with joy, stepped forward and held Jia Xu's wrists tightly with both hands, and said proudly: "With the help of Mr. Wenhe, a certain person will definitely be able to make a difference, and from today on, Mr. Wenhe will be the number one military advisor of a certain one!"

"Thank you for the importance of the master, and I will never give up when I go to the soup and fight the fire!"

Jia Xu was also moved in his heart, as the saying goes, a soldier dies for a confidant! No matter whether the person in front of him will do something in the future, he must keep in mind the importance he attaches to himself and the grace of knowing him.

Since he had worshiped Mu Yi as the lord, Jia Xu no longer hid his secrets, and immediately began to make suggestions.

"Lord, it has been raining for days recently, Bian Zhang and Han Sui have stationed the camp by the river, and the terrain is relatively low, why don't you send a group of men and horses to build a dam to cut off the flow of water, so that no one will notice the rise and fall of the river, and when you save enough water and dig the embankment, the camp of Bian Zhang Han Sui will definitely be flooded, and then the lord only needs to send someone to chase and kill the remnants, and this battle will be a big victory!"

Mu Yi smiled and nodded, he really admired these top strategists, his vision was not ordinary vicious, he had just discussed it with Guo Jia and the others, this Jia Xu saw the doorway, it was a little difficult not to admire!

"What Mr. Wenhe said is extremely true, not long ago, a team of 10,000 people was sent to build the embankment, and now he just needs to wait in the city!"

After hearing this, Jia Xu frowned, glanced at Mu Yi carefully, nodded with satisfaction and smiled: "The lord is far-sighted, and he is ashamed of himself!"

Raindrops fell from the sky, hitting the leaves and making the sound of rain hitting plantains.

Zhao Yun led a team of 10,000 people to a canyon, surrounded by mountains on both sides, and the length of the canyon was more than ten miles long.

10,000 people were dressed in garments, each with a few pockets hanging from their waists, hiding in a mountain forest and eating dry food.

Zhao Yun leaned against a big tree, ate some dry food with the rain, and said to the herald on the side: "Order all the soldiers of the army to build a dam at the mouth of the valley in front of them, with more stones, grass, trees and branches, and fill the pockets with mud."

"Whoa!"

The speed of 10,000 people is not ordinarily slow, although the rain is continuous, but the strength of the number of people is great, and it has been done in just half a day.

……

It rained for five days in a row, and on the sixth day, the clouds gradually dispersed, revealing a blue sky and sunlight shining through the cracks in the clouds.

It was rare that the weather was sunny, and Bian Zhang and Han Sui hurriedly ordered the soldiers to move the damp bows and arrows outside to dry, and the whole camp was busy for a while.

Mu Yi, Jia Xu, and Guo Jia stood at the head of the city, looking at the enemy's military camp from afar, and after a long time, Mu Yi's face showed a look of joy. He slapped his palm on the battlements of the city wall and said, "Good! Zilong, they succeeded!"

Jia Xu asked with some puzzlement: "How can the lord conclude that he has succeeded?"

"Mr. Wenhe, please see, it has been raining every day for so many days, but since yesterday morning, the river in front of the enemy camp has not only not risen, but the river has begun to dry up, what does this mean?"

Jia Xu slapped his thigh and said excitedly: "Yes! Although there was water in the river a few days ago, it was not very obvious, and now the river water has dropped so much, it can only mean that the upstream river has been cut off!"

Mu Yi nodded: "Zhou Cang, Pei Yuanshao, and Hu Che'er listen to orders!"

"Humble in ......"

"Immediately reorganize the soldiers and horses, and immediately rush out of the city when you hear the drums!"

"......"

Jia Xu, who was standing on the side, frowned, and said to stop: "Slow down!"

Seeing Mu Yi looking at him, Jia Xu arched his hand and said: "The lord must not send his own people out of the city to kill the enemy, the lord has just arrived, and he still needs to share some credit with others, such as Dong Zhuo."

"Oh? What does this mean? Mu Yi asked suspiciously.

"Dong Zhuo is a local snake, he is familiar with everything here, if the lord can let him out of the city, it is equivalent to giving him a credit, and it will be easier to command in the future. If Dong Zhuo is not used this time, he will definitely make things difficult for the lord everywhere in the future, and he will also be disobedient to the yin when he does things. In this way, it will not do the Lord any good to fix Xiliang. It's better to let Dong Zhuo take the soldiers and horses under his command to rush and kill, and the lord will follow behind to pick up the cheap, no matter who kills the rebels, the biggest credit is not the lord!"

Mu Yi smiled and nodded: "Okay!" Someone! Let Dong Zhuo come to the middle to see General Ben, and say that General Ben has a great merit to give him!"

"Whoa!"
