Xiahoudun can say that "the erection is not enough", which shows that Cao Cao still appreciates Xiang Cheng and Gan Ning.

This undoubtedly aroused Xiahou Dun's sour psychology towards Xiang Cheng and Gan Ning. The current Cao Cao is just a lieutenant in the north of Luoyang, and he is just a lieutenant in Cao Cao's hands, so Xiahoudun does not reject Xiang Cheng and others, but he himself takes it for granted.

From Xiahoudun's point of view, Xiang Cheng and the others can be said to be some ordinary people in the mountains and wilderness, and Cao Cao is a "dignitary". With Cao Cao's appreciation, even if these people are only a captain, they should be grateful to kneel down to show their loyalty.

Cao Cao just wanted the Xiahou brothers to try what these people had in addition to martial arts, but the Xiahou brothers had the mentality of helping Cao Cao interrogate what these people were capable of.

Although the process is the same, because of the different starting points, the Xiahou brothers somewhat misunderstood what Cao Cao meant. Of course, this is no wonder the Xiahou brothers, after all, Cao Cao said all day long how Xiang Cheng Ganning was extraordinary.

Therefore, although Xiahoudun is a little sour, Xiang Cheng is half of his own person here.

Now, this so-called "own person" actually used such a vicious scheme to compete with himself to win or lose, and Xiahoudun became angry, and then said that "the vertical is not enough to make a plan".

Xiahoudun felt that this kind of person was not the person Cao Cao needed, and turned around and wanted to leave, so the fist with the size of the water tank came to a friendly interview with his nose.

With this sudden punch, the Xiahou brothers realized that they had made a huge oolong.

As soon as Xiahou Yuan saw this situation, he lifted the spear in his hand and stabbed it towards Xiang Cheng. As the saying goes, "An inch is long and an inch is strong, and an inch is short and an inch is dangerous", how close is this distance now, Xiahou Yuan just raised his spear, and Xiang Cheng's fist arrived again. This punch hit Xiahou Yuan's armpit, let's not talk about it, just this punch, Xiahou Yuan's arm kept twitching as if it was too electric. Although he didn't know what it was like to be electric.

The Xiahou brothers' martial arts are naturally there, but they can't stand Xiang Cheng's badness. These two punches went down one of the nosebleeds, and the other had arm cramps. Next to him, Gan Ning was still eager to try, and the most important thing was that Ma Zhong's skills and the Xiahou brothers didn't know at all.

The Xiahou brothers saw that they couldn't do anything, and it must be themselves who would suffer from the two of them and the four people opposite, so they simply turned around with a spear and a big knife and left.

Xiang Cheng just helped Xiang Ji vent his evil anger and teach these two people a little lesson, and he didn't say anything when he saw the two turn around and leave. On the contrary, Ma Zhong asked if he wanted to follow him to the back and keep an eye on it, but Xiang Cheng shook his head with a smile after listening to Ma Zhong's suggestion.

The matter of the Xiahou brothers was just a small episode for Xiang Cheng after all, and now their most urgent task was to return to Yecheng as soon as possible. As long as you step out of the division, the road back will not be as difficult as before.

A few people hastily ate the things brought out from Yanjin, chatting with each other, and of course Gan Ning talked the most.

"Zifu, why did you just test the art of war, why were those two brothers angry like that by you?" The things chewing in his mouth still couldn't stop Gan Ning's mouth, and Gan Ning couldn't wait to ask after the Xiahou brothers walked away.

Originally, Gan Ning was also a general of the unified army, but he followed Xiang Cheng early, and this Jinfan thief had not been in command for a few days, which also made the author inexplicably distressed.

Bai Ren smiled, but he smiled a little embarrassedly: "Don't ask, don't ask, it's just a fluke to win." It seems that Bai Ren also knows that the method he just used is not very glorious.

"Oh, what a fluke." Gan Ning didn't seem to have much of an opinion on this answer, but Xiang Cheng looked at Bai Ren noncommittally.

Because Xiang Ji has already begun to analyze the success or failure of the battle just now for Xiang Cheng.

Will Xiang Cheng lead troops? Xiang Cheng naturally wouldn't, after all, there was no one to be his soldier. In the two years since he came to the Eastern Han Dynasty, Xiang Cheng has not had a single soldier until now. Think about the online novels I've read before, Xiang Cheng is bitter, who said that the traverser is awesome, I haven't been a bitter batch when I get here, aside from the "general", not a single soldier has been recruited, and I don't know how the protagonists in those novels did it.

It's a bit far...... Straight to the point......

Although Xiang Cheng does not know how to lead troops and has never led soldiers, but Xiang Cheng has a great god living in his mind, although the overlord was defeated by Liu Bang in the end, but from the perspective of a bystander, some basic troop formations, traps and poison schemes are still seen very clearly.

And Bai Ren's plan just now can not be described as ruthless.

Although the map is scribbled, it is actually the perimeter of Luoyang City. The location of Bai Renxuan is in the southwest of Luoyang City, as we all know, the terrain in the west is majestic and the terrain in the east is flat, Luoyang City is built according to the water, and the name of this river is called "Luohe".

Bai Ren and a thousand troops were stationed in the upper reaches of the Luohe River, although the march was slower than Xiahoudun, but it was not much slower, it was nothing more than an hour. In other words, when Bai Ren was stationed in the upper reaches of the Luo River, Xiahoudun was just able to sort out the city defense materials. And the upper reaches of the Luohe River are also two or three hours away from Luoyang City, so it is impossible for Xiahoudun to send scouts to investigate. Because even if this scout rides several fast horses, and changes horses without changing people, it will take three or four hours to go back and forth.

If Xiahoudun found out what Bai Ren had done, he would bring troops forward. Bai Ren stood upstream to wait for work, and it was not a big problem to eat these thousand people, and then he walked slowly to Luoyang City, and this battle was also won.

If Xiahoudun didn't bring troops over, these three or four hours would be enough for Bai Ren to do a lot of things.

For example, build a dam on this river. The dam doesn't have to be too big, it just needs to be able to store water. The Luo River is abundantly watered, and it only takes one day for the water in this upstream to be full. To what extent? Naturally, it was full to the extent that this big water could rush into Luoyang City after the embankment burst. As soon as this flood rushes, as long as Bai Ren guards the upstream, it will be difficult for Xiahoudun's 1,000 people not to die, even if they are lucky enough to survive in this big water, how much combat power will they have?

Therefore, on this sand table, as long as Bai Ren walks to the upper reaches of the Luo River, he will be considered to have won. Some people will ask, what if Xiahoudun changed his route to Bairen halfway? Judging from the sand table, Xiahoudun does not have enough time, if he goes to the upper reaches of the Luo River, he will be rerouted twice, and he will have to travel ten miles of waterways and mountain roads, and Bai Ren will have at least two or three hours of rest time when he arrives in the upper reaches of the Luo River.

Of course, this plan is definitely unrealistic on weekdays, not to mention that there are heavy guards along the Luo River, and the 1,000 people brought by Bai Ren are afraid that they will be detained as rebels before they touch the riverbank. Let's just say that the city defense soldiers and city defense materials in Luoyang are not a problem at all to block the burst of the dam built by thousands of people.

But the problem was that at that time, Xiahou Yuan said, "This city is thirteen zhang high, nine battles thick, there are no soldiers in the city, and there is no one in a radius of five hundred miles outside the city." ”

Therefore, the 1,000 people who had to defend against the flood were a little thin.

"Brother Xiang Cheng, you have to pay attention to this Bai Ren." Xiang Ji paused as he spoke, and seemed to be a little entangled, but he quickly sorted out his emotions and continued: "After that, you can't believe his words completely, and you can't disbelieve them. ”

Bai Ren's strategy is indeed a good strategy if it is only used on paper, but it is difficult to use it in actual combat. And looking at Bai Ren, Xiang Ji always thought of an old man who had passed away, and that person was named "Fan Zeng".

Why do you say that Bai Ren is like Fan Zeng? Both are advisors.

Xiang Ji didn't say that he didn't like the minister, but he hated the look of the minister, "if you don't listen to him, you'll be finished".

History is divided, and everyone says it. No one knows what caused Fan Zeng to be disheartened and resign and return to his hometown.

However, Xiang Ji does not talk about historical successes or failures, but only in terms of character and bearing, he is naturally one in ten thousand. He likes to face each other head-to-head, and he likes to use his strength to conquer his enemies. But Fan Zeng just asked him to do the "villain" thing, so there was the final contradiction.

This contradiction is irreconcilable, although Fan Zeng wholeheartedly assists Xiang Ji, but he only values success or failure but ignores the overlord's mind to pursue the process. However, Xiang Ji paid too much attention to the process and paid too much attention to his own fame and fortune, which led to the return of the tiger to the mountain several times, and he was also a failure.

In fact, the biggest thing that is overlooked in the book is that history is written by successful people. Let you pull out the mountains, in the end it just depends on Liu Bang's mood. Maybe Xiang Ji didn't think he would lose at all.

Xiang Ji naturally knew that Xiang Cheng would treat Bai Ren as a brother after he was released from the Luoyang Law Field, so he said this.

In the end, it is just some private matter between the monarch and the strategist that is not for outsiders. Xiang Cheng has not yet been the monarch, and it is better to think about the current things than to think about these Xiang Cheng.

"Brother Yu, don't worry, I will naturally save it." Xiang Cheng pulled the food and said, "Brother Yu, I have a problem with the amount of food recently." ”

Xiang Cheng is now more concerned about the fact that he has somehow increased the amount of food recently, and he always feels that he can't eat enough. Usually only one or two pieces of Hu Biscuit can fill the stomach, but now I can't be satisfied with eating four or five.

Xiang Ji was stunned for a moment, and then found out what the problem was: "I forgot to tell you something, I don't know why I can feel hungry......"

So? How much does Xiang Cheng eat, but does he eat two servings? But he only has one stomach! Xiang Cheng couldn't figure it out, and Xiang Ji couldn't figure it out, but fortunately, these two people had a very similar advantage, that is, they didn't think about things that they couldn't figure out......

After eating and drinking, the people got up. Seeing that there were no more Xiahou and Donghou people around to make trouble, a few people cleaned up the mess and continued to get up and run towards Yecheng.

The boring time is naturally the day on horseback.

Xiang Cheng and a few people went all the way, because they didn't want to go into the city and make extra branches, Xiang Cheng and his party basically camped in the wild. If you are lucky, you can find a broken house and a temple to spend the night, and if you are unlucky, you can only sleep in the wilderness. Fortunately, Xiang Cheng's body is still strong and his luck is not too bad, otherwise the weather in this New Year is really unbearable to sleep in the wild.

Fortunately, such a day has finally come to an end, and the outline of a large city can be faintly seen in front of me. Isn't it Zhang Jiao's lair, Yecheng in Jizhou!
