Chapter Forty-Six: Offering Strategies and Corners

It has been a few days since Liu Bei rescued Dong Zhuo, and the Huangfu army and the Yellow Turban Zhang Jiao Department have launched a fierce tug-of-war. The Huangfu soldiers were elite and brave, with the help of Liu Chang, Cao Cao, Liu Bei and other heroes, while the Yellow Turban Army was numerous and powerful, and Zhang Jiao personally sat in charge, and the two sides could not hold each other for a long time.

In August, the weather is getting cooler and the dead leaves are starting to fall with the wind.

Liu Chang lived in the camp tent and was thinking hard about how to break the enemy. Several days of planning and fierce battles have wiped out all the yellow turbans outside Guangzong. Relying on the elite and courage of the official army, and because the Yellow Turban Army did not understand the art of war, Huangfu Song adopted the strategy of taking the camp step by step, encroaching on and dividing, and encircling the points to send reinforcements, and wiped out all the Yellow Turbans on the periphery or rushed to Guangzong City. However, Guangzong was the nest of the three Zhang Jiao brothers, and not only did the city walls be strong, but it was also difficult to capture due to the large number of enemies. In ancient times, the siege of the city was paid attention to the multiplier, and the ten were attacked, but now the official army is one to three compared with the Yellow Turban Army, and the number of troops in the Huangfu Army has reached 100,000, and the Yellow Turban was originally known as 280,000, and has been reduced to 130,000 after almost a month of consumption, but it is still claimed to be 200,000. In the face of so many enemies, and blindly holding on, even if Sun Wu is reincarnated, he may not be able to have a good strategy.

Walking in the woods next to the camp, a fallen leaf suddenly caught Liu Chang's attention, and his thoughts continued to unfold. "Ugly, what time is it today?"

Although there were only a few guards who followed Liu Chang out for a walk, they were the commander of Dian Wei, who was known as the first guard of the Three Kingdoms in the late Han Dynasty, so Liu Chang also seemed quite leisurely.

At this moment, Dian Wei heard Liu Chang's inquiry, and after a little thought, he replied: "Today is the fourth day of the eighth month." ”

"August?! It's August......" Liu Chang listened to the day, and couldn't help but rejoice in his heart, August, isn't it the month of Zhang Jiao's return to heaven. Turning to look at Dian Wei, he felt that Dian Wei's ugly face was also so beautiful at this time, and he squinted and said with a smile, "Ugly, believe it or not, brother, it won't be long before we can go home!" ”

"Really?" This time, Dian Wei frowned. Although this Dian Wei is just a bodyguard in the official history, he is not unfamiliar with military affairs, and now that he has followed Liu Chang, he also has some understanding of the current situation. At this time, I heard that Liu Chang said that he could quickly break the thief and go home, so he couldn't believe it, and asked rhetorically: "Big brother, there are 200,000 enemies, and our army is only about 100,000. The eldest brother and General Huangfu and others all said that if you are doubled, you will surround it, and if you are ten, you will attack it. But now that the enemy is obviously outnumbered, and the city is still defended, what is the big brother's plan to break the enemy in the short term? ”

"Oh?" Liu Chang listened to what Dian Wei said, and suddenly felt surprised, looked Dian Wei up and down, his eyes fluttered, and he looked at Dian Wei a little overwhelmed, and hurriedly asked: "Big brother, this, what's wrong?" ”

"Hahaha......" Suddenly Liu Chang laughed, raised his hand and patted Dian Wei's thick shoulder, and said with relief like an elder, "I didn't expect that our ugly family also knows a little about military affairs!" Not bad, not bad! ”

Dian Wei scratched his head and smiled: "Hehe! Ah Chou has been following his brother for so long, and he sees that his brother often studies these things on weekdays, so he knows a little. ”

"Well, that's good!" Liu Chang nodded, and then said, "Ugly, you're not illiterate, just not much, so let's ask Xiu'er to sort out some books, you can take them back and read them well, maybe they will be useful in the future!" ”

"Brother, don't do this! Ugly only wants to be his brother's guard, and he doesn't want anything else! ”

When Liu Chang heard this, he said angrily: "Hehe, who said that guards don't need to study?" I don't know the general trend, I don't know the reason, how can I take on the responsibility of guarding? ”

"This ......" Dian Wei wanted to say that he was just a guard, why do he know so much, but looking at Liu Chang's gloomy face, Dian Wei swallowed back all the words, and could only whisper, "Yes!" ”

"Well, then I'll ask Xiu'er to sort out some for you, and then I'll let Xiu'er teach you, if there is anything unclear, you can ask me." Speaking of this, Liu Chang suddenly remembered that most of the people at this time were illiterate, if they were among the ordinary people, it would be fine, but if they were illiterate in this army, the soldiers would be easy to be used and not known, and the uneducated troops would be extremely inconvenient to issue military orders, and it would be difficult to guarantee loyalty. In ancient times, there was often a situation of defeat like a mountain, which was caused by the lack of culture of the soldiers, and immediately, Liu Chang decided to learn from the practice of the victorious army in later generations, and set up training classes to teach soldiers to learn to read and write. Of course, these things have to be talked about later, and there are more important things that Liu Chang needs to do in person at the moment, that is, urging death. "Ugly, you let the brothers go back, let's go to the Shuai camp!"

"Huh?" Dian Wei was stunned by Liu Chang's sudden decision, so he could only order the other guards to go back and rest, while he followed quickly, fulfilling the obligations that a guard should do, and never leaving the person who guarded.

At this time, the sun was setting in the west, and the smoke was curling in the camp, Liu Chang had a plan in his heart, and walked towards the Chinese army camp with brisk steps. As he walked, he said, "Ugly! Look how beautiful this dusk is! ”

"Forehead......" Dian Wei really has limited mental power, and he can't keep up with Liu Chang's jumping rhythm at all, so he has to follow silently on the side, occasionally making perfunctory sounds.

But Liu Chang still said to himself: "When I look at this dusk, I think of the current yellow turban thief, and it is almost time for the curtain to come to an end!" ”

The two brothers walked while talking (in fact, Liu Chang said all the way, Dian Wei was a loyal listener on the side), and after a while, the two came to the front of the Chinese army's big tent.

"Yo, it's Liu joining the army! How did this point come to the general? The guards outside the tent door saw Liu Chang coming over and greeted him with some laughter. To say that now, the hottest new star in the entire Huangfu army belongs to Liu Chang. He gave the soldiers the feeling that he was extraordinary, as long as he was invincible, and this person was generous, treating the soldiers like buddies next door, he was really up to the commander of the whole army, down to the flat-headed soldiers, and knew that he was well-known for joining the army.

"Hugh wants to say more, go and report it quickly, just say that your brother, uh, no, it's Ben who joined the army and has a clever plan to break the yellow scarf!" After speaking, he saw that the guard was still stunned, so he quickly kicked it, and the guard turned around and reported it.

"General Qiyu, Liu joins the army and asks to see you!"

Huangfu Song was preparing a meal with his son and nephew, and when he heard the report from the guards outside the account, he immediately had some doubts, looked at his son, nephew and the guards, and asked: "Shiming saw me at this time, could it be a big deal?" ”

The guards heard Huangfu Song's question, and suddenly remembered Liu Chang's words when he was outside the account, and immediately said: "General Qiyu, Liu Senjun said that he had a clever plan to break the yellow scarf, so he asked to see him." ”

"Oh?" Huangfu Song, Huangfu Jianshou and Huangfu Li came out in unison, Gu Du looked at the guards in front of him, the guards were in a cold sweat, and said in his heart: Uncle, is it me who said that, why are you looking at me?

"Huh?! What are you doing? Just as the guards were complaining, Liu Chang's voice was remembered in the account.

"Hey, Shiming is here?" Huangfu Song looked at Liu Chang, who had entered without permission, and said gently.

Liu Chang casually sat down, poured himself a bowl of wine and drank it all, and then said leisurely: "The general should not blame a certain person for breaking in without waiting for a report, right?" ”

"Haha," Huangfu Song smiled heartily when he heard this, "how can you blame it!" My army master can be described as a clever calculation, Zhibi Han Chu Zifang, the old man's tent, as long as Shiming has something, you can enter and exit at will. ”

When Liu Chang heard this, he said, "Shiming, thank you for the general's trust!" ”

Soon, Huangfu Song took away the guards, and after sitting down with Huangfu Jianshou and Huangfu Li, Qi asked: "Listen to the guards, Shiming came to come up with a clever plan to help someone break the yellow scarf?" ”

"Broken yellow scarf?" Liu Chang listened and smiled slightly, "Non-yes, non-yes!" ”

"This ...... the three Huangfu, you look at me, I look at you, and finally look at Liu Chang at the same time." In the end, Huangfu Jianshou asked out loud: "Brother Shiming, if you don't break the yellow scarf, what is that for?" ”

Liu Chang didn't know when he had an extra feather fan in his hand, and he was drinking wine at this time, fanning the fan while fanning, but he had the charm of an elegant person. raised his eyes and looked at the three people in the tent, then looked at Huangfu Jianshou, and said slowly: "Young general, don't be impatient, if a certain strategy is successful, it is not just as simple as breaking the yellow scarf, it can be said that it is to destroy the yellow scarf!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the whole account was stunned, and Huangfu Song couldn't help but stand up, and said anxiously: "Shiming, will the plan be released?" ”

Seeing this, Liu Chang put down the wine bottle in his hand, shook the feather fan and said: "General Qiyu, I found out from the captive yellow scarf a few days ago that the great sage and good teacher is seriously ill, so don't be angry, bedridden, I am afraid that he will die soon." Therefore, if a certain soldier wanted to make a loud voice, he would write some words and phrases for them to insult outside the city, and if he could scold the old man angrily, he would surely die in anger. When Zhang Jiao dies, Zhang Liang alone in Guangzong City is obviously not the opponent of the general, and then I will design and earn it out of the city, and the merit of exterminating the anti-thief will definitely not run! ”

After listening to Liu Chang's words, Huangfu Song thought deeply, nodded, and said: "If Shiming's plan is successful, the day of exterminating the yellow scarf is not far away!" The reason why the Yellow Turban Thief is so tough now is because Zhang Jiao is here, and if Zhang Jiao dies, the rumors of his immortality will disappear immediately, which is a heavy blow to the faith of ordinary Yellow Turban Thief. Thinking that Zhang Liang is a person who has nothing to do, he will not be able to deal with the negative impact of Zhang Jiao's death, and then the enemy will be able to attack himself. ”

"What the general said is true! Then I went back to make up words. After Liu Chang finished speaking, he got up and walked out, and Huangfu Song wanted to stay for his meal, but Liu Chang politely declined. At the same time, Huangfu Song also arranged for Huangfu Jianshou and Huangfu Li to select soldiers with loud voices. And Liu Chang recommended Liu Bei's third brother Zhang Fei before leaving.

Walking on the way back to the camp, Liu Chang once again really felt that the title of Huangfu Song's famous general was not in vain, and many things were not much worse than that of him, a traverser, who was really an elite talent of an era, and it was not at all comparable to ordinary people in later generations, it seems that he should be more attentive. immediately accelerated the return of the account and made up scolding words.
