Chapter 404: Afterhand Preparation
In return to Wei Jie's earnest gaze, it was Liu Yu who shook his head slowly, counting back and forth, it took seven or eight days, and he didn't even find a trace of the Jingzhou army, this is Liu Yu, one of the most outstanding scouts in the north and south, he personally went out to horse, and they all returned in vain, could it be that their inference was really wrong before?
Could it be that Huan Xuan and Liu Gaozhi did not collude at all, and He Wuji's words were purely just a worrying misunderstanding between Liu Yu and Wei Jie!
But how to explain the sense of crisis of the Wei Rank? The keen sense from Tianshu rarely makes mistakes, every time he has this feeling, something big happens, and Liu Yu, his intuition has always been very accurate, both of them have a sense of crisis, and the probability of making mistakes at the same time is even lower!
"Liu Yu, what do you think?" Wei Jiejie couldn't figure it out for a while, so he could only frown and ask Liu Yu.
"Liu Yu still firmly believes that Huan Xuan and Liu Gaozhi have been in a trap and colluded together!" Liu Yu said firmly, his bright eyes radiating with confidence.
"And Liu Yu has an intuition that the Jingzhou army is already lurking outside Jiankang City in a place where Liu Yu can't find it, and Huan Xuan is very likely to be staring at Jiankang at this time!"
Liu Yu's words made Wei Jiezhi feel a chill down his spine, the enemy was close at hand, but they couldn't even touch the shadow of the enemy, this battle had already been lost before it was fought, and it was very likely that they would lose the bottom!
"Have you done a good job of the terrain sand table around Health City?"
Previously, Liu Yu gave Liu Yu the task of investigating the crisis around Jiankang City, and at the same time, make a military sand table, if it is completed, it can come in handy immediately!
"It's not completely done, but according to the instructions of the second son last time, the sand table of the terrain between Jiankang and Stone City has been specially done!" Liu Yu said slowly.
"Moreover, there is a shortcut that only Liu Yu knows!"
Wei Jie nodded slightly, he asked Liu Yu to be in charge of this work, just to see if Liu Yu would hide his secrets, last time from Jingkou to Jiankang, Liu Yu was several hours faster than he imagined, if it weren't for Liu Yu knowing some unknown shortcuts, this matter would not be able to give a reasonable explanation.
Since then, not only Wei Jie's heart is suspicious, but those who know about it, such as Liu Muzhi and Zhang Xiong and others, are all suspicious, Wei Jie's prediction is that Liu Yu is very likely to have personally surveyed the terrain around Jiankang a long time ago, Wei Jie's even suspects that not only Jiankang, it is possible that all the places he has been to have been carefully surveyed by him, otherwise, how can he know the shortcut from Jingkou to Jiankang?
Liu Yu has a move, there is nothing more than one reason, that is, Jiankang City will face a war sooner or later, as for who is the main body of this war, Liu Yu is not yet known when he is doing this work!
"Are you going to explain it to them?" Wei Jie, indifferently, asked.
Liu Yu can make a shortcut on the sand table that only he knows, which also fully demonstrates his trust in Wei Jie, for this, Wei Ji is quite relieved at the same time, but he is worried that Liu Muzhi will come to ask again because of curiosity, but Liu Yu is a taciturn person, and he doesn't like to explain, if the points of the two sides are not right, I am afraid that there will be unnecessary misunderstandings!
Liu Yu shook his head slightly and said, "Liu Yu doesn't need to explain anything to anyone!" ”
Wei Jie nodded slightly, what Liu Yu said was right, if you believe it, you will believe it, and if you don't believe it, it has nothing to do with Liu Yu, after all, this is a secret that Liu Yu hides in the depths of his heart.
"Whatever you want, but Wei Jie's would like to remind you that Liu Muzhi and the others are all trustworthy brothers and partners, and if you really want to have great achievements in the future, you need their assistance and help!"
Wei Jie's serious tone made Liu Yu couldn't help but be slightly stunned, although the two had already established a relationship of mutual dependence, but because of their personalities, Liu Yu had really never had such a heart-to-heart conversation with others!
After a moment of silence, Liu Yu nodded slightly and said, "Liu Yu understands, thank you for the second son's advice!" ”
"Hmm!" Wei Jiejie nodded.
"Then let's take a look, and let's study the next step according to the sand table!"
...
Half an hour later, Liu Muzhi and others, who received the notice from the guard, all appeared in Liu Yu's camp tent, and the camp tent assigned by the guard rank to Liu Yu for rest was in the outermost extension of the military camp, and there were people guarding outside the camp, prohibiting all unrelated people from approaching!
"Uncle Bao, this is what you call a military sand table?"
Rao is Liu Muzhi has accompanied Liu Yu to participate in the terrain survey for the first few days, and he has long known that Liu Yu will make a sand table, but when he sees it with his own eyes at this moment, he still has an incredible feeling, and then looking at Zhang Xiong and Duanmu and the two, they are even more stunned and difficult to control!
When Wei Jie's first sight of this sand table, the shock in his heart is actually not less than others, the whole sand table is about five meters long, three meters wide, occupying nearly half of the space in the camp tent, the middle of the sand table is piled with stones to build a small city, inserted with a small red flag, on which the word "Jiankang" is written! ”
Around the town, there are criss-crossing avenues, as well as all kinds of intertwined sheep's intestine paths, and at a glance you can see that the various signs of woods and hills are also scattered all over the sand table, not far below the small city, and the big river that simulates out and is clearly recognizable!
"This is Jiankang and the surrounding terrain?"
Duanmu He is meticulous, and his work content is similar to that of scouts, and when he saw Liu Yu's masterpiece at this time, the shock in his heart can be imagined!
Liu Yu nodded slightly and said: "Exactly, the stones in the picture are mountains, the forest branches are jungles, the gray sand is marked by the official road, the black sand is marked by the little-known path, and this canal is the big river!" ”
"This is Stone Town!" Liu Yu pointed to a slightly larger stone in the corner of the lower left corner of the sand table and said.
"And what does this red line represent?"
A red line starts from the valley behind Stone Town, winds through various mountains and forests, and connects to Jiankang City, which is particularly conspicuous on the sand table, Liu Muzhi was curious, and was the first to ask.
"This is a trail, a trail that only Liu Yu knows!" Liu Yu was silent for a long time before he slowly spoke.
"Since the emperor is unwilling to move Stone Town in advance, then we must have two preparations, this red line is the back road prepared by Liu Yu for the emperor, if Huan Xuan blocks the main road between Stone City and Jiankang, then this small road will come in handy!"
Liu Yu's words didn't sound like much to Wei Jie's and Liu Muzhi, after all, Liu Yu was a scout, and it was understandable that he could find a path that others didn't know, but Zhang Xiong and Duanmu He had mixed feelings in their hearts, and they didn't know how to describe the complex feelings in their hearts at this moment!
