Chapter 340: Up and Down

"It's hard to win."

Gu Nan stacked the dried meat and dry food together and put it in his mouth and took a bite, the meat had almost no taste, but it was already much better than the dry food in the army.

While chewing on the contents of his mouth, he glanced at Cao Cao.

"Mengde, you should also know."

"Yes." Cao Cao nodded: "I know it too." ”

The army he led was no more than 10,000, compared to the Xiliang army in Dong Zhuo's hands, the difference was several times, how could he say what the chance of victory was?

"But is there anything you can do, sir?"

Cao Cao picked up a stone from the ground and pinched it between his fingers: "It's good to win." ”

"Click." Gu Nan didn't answer Cao Cao first, but took another bite of the dry food in his hand and ate it soundly.

Cao Cao, who was sitting on the side, smiled bitterly, sometimes Mr. does not look like a person in the dust, and sometimes he has no temperament at all.

Touching the corner of his mouth stained with crumbs, Gu Nan stretched out a finger and said.

"I have a good plan, a plan."

"Sir, do you really have a way?"

Cao Cao opened his mouth slightly and asked in astonishment. Originally, he just asked casually, but who knew that Gu Nan really had a countermeasure.

Ten thousand soldiers are pursuing an army of more than 100,000 or even hundreds of thousands, and no matter how you think about it, there should be no countermeasures at all.

After thinking about it, he looked at Gu Nan with a light in his eyes.

"Sir, do you want to use the immortal method?"

······

"Tsk!"

Gu Nan's face darkened, it's all at this time, can't he have some normal thoughts.

"I've said it all, I'm not an immortal, where did I get any immortal law."

It's no wonder that Cao Cao has such a whimsy, and now in such a situation, only whimsy has a way.

Gu Nan swallowed the dry food in his mouth and looked at Cao Cao by the light of the fire.

"The best strategy does not need to be against the enemy to be famous, and the next strategy should have a chance of winning, which can be chosen by Meng De."

"Don't have to fight the enemy?" Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, and put down the stone in his hand: "What is the best policy, sir?" ”

Eating dry food, Gu Nan took out a cloth bag from his arms and handed it to Cao Cao.

"The best strategy lies in this cloth bag, Meng De can see it first in the evening. If Meng De uses it, there is no need to make a decision, and if Meng De does not use it, he will talk about it tomorrow. ”

During the march, Gu Nan had already written this cloth bag.

In fact, she could have said it directly to Cao Cao, but she hoped that Cao Cao would think about it before making a decision, so she handed it over to Cao Cao in this way.

And, she's going to have a hard time.

If Cao Cao chooses this best strategy, she will find it very difficult to do.

Cao Cao didn't understand what Gu Nan meant, but he still took the cloth bag in her hand and answered.

"Okay, and we'll see it at night."

······

Late at night, the firelight is reflected on the mountain road, and from a distance, the little fire between the mountain road and the stars and moon in the sky echo each other, which is a special scene.

There was snoring in the army, and many people must have fallen asleep.

"Sand."

Cao Cao took out the cloth bag that Gu Nan gave him from his arms, spread out his palm, and looked at the cloth bag in his palm.

He didn't understand what the best policy was, and Mr. Gu seemed to want him to think carefully before deciding.

Inside the cloth bag is a strip of cloth with four words written on it.

Only chase, not fight.

Cao Cao looked at these four words in a daze, indeed, from the current situation, this is the best policy.

The princes don't chase him, Cao Cao is the only one who chases, Dong Zhuo has been gone for a few days, and it is understandable that he can't chase him.

He only needs to make a momentum, and his name of righteousness can be passed on to the world and create a good name for him.

But Luoyang City is burned in vain, and the Son of Heaven is robbed, and these will not change at all. He Cao Cao just made a scene, he didn't need to use troops, and he just got that reputation.

The strip of cloth was held in his hand, and it sounded halfway, Cao Cao smiled with relief and put the strip of cloth on the fire.

"I didn't expect Mr. to write well, and he can be called a master of books."

The flames ignited the strip of cloth and quickly spread upward, Cao Cao let go of his hand, and the strip fell into the fire and burned to ashes.

"However, this is a deception."

Watching the strips of cloth in the fire burn away, Cao Cao didn't even think much about it.

He doesn't know whether he is loyal or traitorous, but since he is a hero, there are some things that should not be done.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be clear whether it was a male or a villain?

The night is quiet, with the unique sound of the bonfire scorching, Cao Cao looks at the fire and is distracted, and it is always reassuring to see the bright light at night.

He stood up and walked towards the Chinese army.

"Mengde."

Xiahoudun and the others were sitting around the fire to discuss, and when they saw Cao Cao coming, they stood up and saluted.

Cao Cao saw that several people were all in low voices, and they didn't see Gu Nan, so he asked suspiciously.

"Where's the gentleman?"

"Ah, sir, rest there."

Xiahoudun pointed to a tree behind him, Gu Nan was leaning on it to take a nap, breathing evenly, he should have fallen asleep.

Cao Cao looked at the man and smiled, and his voice was a little softer.

"The march is hard, after all, sir is not a rough man like us."

As he spoke, he lifted the hem of his shirt and sat down.

Everyone looked at each other, smiled slightly, and sat down.

"Still." Li Dian showed a rare smile on his rigid face, and said with a slight sigh.

"There is too much difference between the gentleman and an ordinary woman, and he is tired and does not show his expression, so that people can't see it."

"No, no, just you wood, ordinary women are tired, and you can't see it."

Xiahou Yuan said with a smile on the side, everyone laughed in a low voice, and even Cao Cao laughed twice.

Li Dian raised his eyebrows helplessly, he was different from Cao Hong, who often quarreled with Xiahou Yuan, but he was not angry.

The crowd didn't laugh a few words, and began to talk about business.

"Mengde."

Xiahoudun took out a piece of animal skin from his bosom and handed it to Cao Cao.

There is a simple map drawn on the skin, or it is not an exaggeration, except for a zigzag line and some markings on either side of the line.

"This is a map from Xiao Cai, according to the traces on the road, Dong Zhuojun should be this road."

Xiahoudun said, pointing to a place.

"In one day, we should go to the side of Xingyang, not far from Dong Zhuojun."

"Isn't it far?" Cao Cao looked at the map and let out a sigh: "I know, let the soldiers prepare for battle." ”

"Yes." The voices of the crowd were a little solemn.

Several people knew that this battle was not an evenly matched battle, and if the march was improper, not only would it be defeated, but the entire army might be annihilated.

Cao Cao looked at Xiahoudun, saw him frowning, and asked.

"Yuan Rang, is there anything else?"

"Yes." Xiahoudun's fingers moved to a place on the side of Rongyang.

"The terrain here is complicated, and I am afraid that Dong Zhuo will have an ambush in order to prevent the princes from chasing the soldiers. There is a countermeasure first. ”

······

The people sat around the fire and took pleasures.

Gu Nan sat under the tree, his hat raised slightly, and he shook his head with a smile.

It seems that he didn't choose that option after all.
