I don't know if it was to vent the anger of the people who were far away in Pinglu, Fa Zheng and Xu Huang, who were regarded as "scouts of the Jin army", were all tied up into zongzi and pitifully thrown under a withered tree in the corner of the camp.

This is his savior, he was treated like this, Corporal Lixian must do enough! Fang Li muttered to himself in his heart.

Fang Li immediately pulled Cao Cao forward together, and then personally untied the ropes between Fa Zheng and Xu Huang and helped the two of them up.

In the end, he took the initiative to make amends: "The soldiers don't know the identity of Mr. Xiaozhi and Gongming brothers, and there are many conflicts, and the widow makes amends on their behalf." ”

Fa Zheng was really shocked at this time, and he was already halfway through the bow and stiffened his waist: "How can Tang Gong know that we are waiting?" ”

The reason why he told the soldier that Tang Gong must know himself was just to attract Fang Li's attention. As long as you are a monarch with a little brain, you will definitely think that it is definitely not simple to come.

But what Fa Zheng didn't expect was that Tang Gong really called out his and Xu Huang's cousins. How can you not be surprised?

Real celebrities pretend to be forced, how can they be able to accept celebrities who don't pretend to be forced?

Fang Wei smiled secretly, waved his sleeves and said, "The widow not only knows who the two gentlemen's surnames are and where they come from; I also know that the two of them came from Tongcheng and specially brought me a big gift to Datang. I wonder if the widow is right? ”

Fa Zheng prides himself on being calm by nature, but at this time, he couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise. It was even more confirmed that Fang Li was the master he had been looking for all his life. The original intention of testing the temptation first also disappeared, most of it.

He made a salute with sincerity and convincingness: "Fa Zheng has heard that Tang Gong is wise for a long time, and specially persuaded Gong Ming to come to vote together, and it is true when I see it today!" ”

Originally, Xu Huang, who was full of anger because Tang Bing arrested people without asking, also couldn't close his mouth a little, and said again and again: "Tang Gong is really a god!" ”

After the greetings, Fang Li introduced Cao Cao to Fazheng and Xu Huang, and they greeted each other again.

Fa Zheng only paid attention to the lord, and he no longer cared about Cao Cao, who was short in stature and not good-looking.

However, Xu Huang couldn't help but hold Cao Cao's hand with a look of admiration: "It turns out that Your Excellency is the governor of Cao Dudu, who destroyed the Liang Kingdom and Xie Hangu in the midst of the crisis, and used soldiers like a god?" Xu Huang has heard the name of the governor for a long time, and his heart yearns for it, and he finally saw it today, which is really a blessing for three lives! ”

Cao Cao was in a good mood when he heard this, and he held hands with Xu Huang to greet him, and finally said modestly: "The public has said it." The siege of the Liang Kingdom and the Jiehan Valley all relied on my lord to strategize, and they were just acting according to the plan. ”

Only then did Xu Huang realize that Cao Cao's words just now had lifted Cao Cao a little high, and even Cao Cao felt a little noisy. At that moment, his cheeks flushed, and he turned to face Fang Li and bowed three more times.

Fang Li didn't care, but it seemed that the civil and military people from Cao Wei admired Cao Cao more in their hearts, such as Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Le Jin, etc., all of them had this kind of mentality.

After the Battle of Hangu, Fang Li confirmed Cao Cao's loyalty, and he was no longer so jealous of him. Hearing this, he waved his hand indifferently, and his expression was very honored: "Gongming has not said that the widow has Mengde, which is not only the luck of the widow, but also the luck of the Tang Dynasty!" ”

Cao Cao shook violently, seeing that Fang Li's expression did not seem to be fake, recalling the temptations and tests he had again and again, he couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart.

To say that this thing is really wonderful, Xu Huang admired Cao Cao in history, and the original owner Yang Feng surrendered to Cao Wei without hesitation after his rebellion was destroyed. After that, he was loyal and made many military exploits, and made many peerless feats for Cao Cao.

Now that I have changed my identity, I still fall in love with Cao Cao at first sight, which is really wonderful.

Fang Li originally thought that since Xu Huang liked Cao Cao, it was better to let him obey Cao Cao's orders. On second thought, it wasn't feasible.

Cao Cao already has wise and brave generals such as Zhang Liao and Gao Shun, and there are brave and invincible warriors like Yingbu. Look at yourself again, in addition to Liu Bei, Lu Bu, Ma Chao, and Liu Feng are all well-developed limbs and simple-minded, Xu Huang, a talent who can not only lead troops to kill the enemy, but also give advice, is urgently needed, as the lord, the strength of his own army must not be weaker than his subordinates, and it is a taboo for soldiers to be strong and weak!

Xu Gongming, Xu Gongming, whoever asked you to appear at this time, just follow the lord and me honestly!

The capture of Tongcheng was imminent, and there was not much time for Fang Li and the others to shush each other. After a brief greeting, Fang Li brought Fa Zheng and Xu Huang into the big tent, where Lu Bu, Zhang Liao and the others had been waiting for a long time.

If it takes a lot of time to introduce them one by one, Fang Li waved his hand: "The military situation is urgent, so don't pay attention to it so much." Mr. Xiaozhi, tell me what great gift you have brought to the widow? ”

I saw Xu Huang reach into the placket of his shirt and instigate for a long time under the signal of Fa Zheng, and took out a stack of white paper covered with various text patterns, signaling that he wanted to offer it to Fang Li.

Zhang Liao took a step forward and took the paper, glanced at it hastily, and then said ecstatically: "Lord, this is the troop deployment map of all parts of Tongcheng!" ”

Sure enough, it's a city defense map!

"Bring it to the widow!" Fang Li was overjoyed, stood up and bowed deeply to Fa Zheng, "Mr. sent charcoal in the snow, and the widow thanked Mr. Xiaozhi on behalf of Datang!" ”

With this city defense map, the Tang army is no longer deaf and blind, but can analyze every move of the Jin army according to the information of Tongcheng's city defense and troop allocation.

If you can achieve information parity with the defenders, the siege is half the battle.

The generals discussed a lot around the city defense map, but Cao Cao and Liu Bei were silent, and they didn't seem to be as relaxed as the others.

After thinking for a while, Cao Cao suddenly said loudly: "Lord, the minister has something to understand and wants to ask Mr. Xiaozhi." Mr. and Xu Zhuangshi risked their lives to go out of the city, did they alarm the defenders of Tongcheng? ”

Fa Zheng glanced at Cao Cao appreciatively and replied, "Jia Hua has blocked Tongcheng like an iron bucket, and it is impossible to slip away under the nose of the Jin army. ”

That's what was discovered?

Fang Li was stunned for a moment, and instantly thought of the problem - since Jia Hua knew that someone in the city had escaped, wouldn't he take the initiative to adjust the deployment? So what is the significance of this city defense map?

The people present were all experienced in a hundred battles, and when they heard Fa Zheng's answer, they all paused, and their expressions suddenly became complicated.

This Mr. Xiaozhi ran out of Tongcheng desperately, just to send this city defense map that may have been meaningless?

At this time, a line of words flashed in Fang Li's mind: System, are you teasing Lao Tzu......

However, looking back on what the system has done over the years, although it is a cheat, it has never let off empty cannons. Since Fa Zheng and Xu Huang will bring a big gift, it will definitely be a real gift.

Seeing that Cao Cao didn't make a sound after asking this sentence, Liu Bei in the corner showed a very faint smile on the corner of his mouth. And Fa Zheng and Xu Huang at the center of the storm looked calm, as if the suspected protagonist was someone else.

There must be something else going on!

Fang Li's eyes rolled, and his mood calmed down. patted Fa Zheng on the shoulder and said: "Xiaozhi, you don't have to hang the appetite of widows anymore, let's talk quickly, what is the mystery of this city defense map?" ”

Fa Zheng bowed and said: "Attacking the city is not the director of the grass people, please let Xu Gongming decompose for Tang Gong." ”

Seeing that everyone's eyes in the tent were focused on him, Xu Huang just arched his hand indifferently, and then squatted down and pieced together the scattered city defense maps on the ground.

"Tang Gong, please see, Tongcheng is the gateway to Quwo, and the Jin State has heavy troops here. Coupled with the temporary recruitment of new soldiers and reinforcements gathered from all over the country, as well as the people who spontaneously supported them, the defensive force reached 100,000. Jia Hua is good at guarding and defending Tongcheng inside and out. Xu Huang pointed to the map and said,

"Forgive the grass people, if you rely on Tang Gong's 60,000 elite soldiers, even if Jia Hua does not change the deployment of troops, it is impossible to take Tongcheng in a short time. The only way to take the city is to surprise the soldiers! ”

Fang Li nodded again and again when he heard this, and his evaluation of Xu Huang increased by three points: "In this way, the focus of this city defense map brought by Xiaozhi is not on the deployment of troops, but on the map itself?" ”

"What Tang Gong said is exact!" Xu Huang's finger moved to the west side of Tongcheng, "A hundred meters away from the west gate of Tongcheng is Xiangchuan." There is such a natural moat, even if Jia Hua is meticulous and has a heavy army here, there is no way to travel back a hundred years ago and let the overseer who was in charge of the western city wall at that time be in charge like him! ”

Xu Huang had already made it very clear, and everyone's eyes lit up. Zhang Liao asked first: "According to the meaning of the strong man, there is a flaw in the west gate of Tongcheng?" ”

"Exactly, and fatally."

Xu Huang pulled out the drawings depicting the western city wall in the map and put them in front of everyone, "When the grass people were still on an errand in the Jin army, they overheard the old army leader say that the root of the wall about ten feet south at the corner of the west wall and the north wall of Tongcheng was the part that cut corners the most when it was built. If dozens of wrestlers smash the log at the same time, within ten strokes, a large hole will be broken, enough for three or four people to get in and out! ”

Tongcheng still has such a weakness? Fang Li was suspicious: "You can all know, doesn't Jia Hua know?" Won't send someone to fix it? ”

"It's only because General Jia Hua arrived too late, I'm afraid it's impossible to know." Xu Huang's tone sounded very regretful, "The old military leader who knew about this was the descendant of the overseer back then, and he died three years ago. Even his son didn't know about it, and the grass people also heard the military leader mention it by chance after getting drunk. Jia Hua only arrived a month ago, so of course it is impossible to know. ”

"Haha! God help me! Fang Li was overjoyed, stretched out his fist and slammed it on Xu Huang's chest, "Gongming, you are really a great gift from God to me from Datang!" ”

"Tang Gong has won the award." A hint of gloom flashed in Xu Huang's eyes, "The grass people are Jin people, if it weren't for the fact that the whole family was killed by the Jin country, the grass people wouldn't be..."

Xu Huang's encounter had already been heard by Fa Zheng before, and at this time, they all showed unbearable expressions.

Lu Bu blushed and put his hand on Xu Huang's shoulder: "Don't be a little daughter." Gongming, when we enter Tongcheng, we will definitely let you slash the enemy! ”

Xu Huang nodded gratefully, quickly adjusted his mood, and continued: "With this weakness, Tang Gong only needs to give the grass people five hundred elite dead soldiers, and the grass people will definitely dedicate the west gate of Tongcheng to Tang Gong!" ”

"Five hundred dead?" Zhang Liao seemed to have heard the Arabian Nights, "Gongming don't brag." Five hundred people, you can't just approach the city wall under the nose of the Jin army, how can you break the city? ”

Xu Huang smiled silently, and turned his head to look at Fa Zheng behind him.
