Chapter 137: Jia Xu's Strategy
It's still General Chen Sheng's mansion, or that hall.
However, there are only two people in the hall today, Chen Sheng and Jia Xu. It seems that the personnel are a little sparse and deserted, but as the saying goes, concentration is the essence.
The two people in this hall are definitely the essence of Nanyang County.
One is the lord and the other is the great strategist.
Chen Sheng raised his head and glanced at Jia Xu, and a little strange color flashed in his eyes.
I saw that Jia Xu's expression was soft, and under Chen Sheng's gaze, he was also the same, calm and not arrogant. It looks so low-brow and pleasing to the eye.
If he hadn't known that this person was Jia Xu, Chen Sheng might have thought that this was an idler from somewhere.
Since Chen Sheng ascended the throne, he has met with Jia Xu very frequently. But it was the first time that two people had met face-to-face.
There are two reasons for this. The first is that Chen Sheng didn't find a chance. Second, it's a guy who doesn't know what to face this person for.
Jia Xu. This person is important, very important. If you use an analogy, this is the lonely ovary. It's not that Chen Sheng looks down on people, a Zhang Zifang is, in a sense, more important than Zhao Yun and Wei Yan.
The military generals are good, they can control the country and fight, they are a force or an indispensable existence. Such as Zhao Yun and Wei Yan, the more the merrier.
But in order to develop a force and present a secret strategy to break the enemy, a figure like Jia Xu is still needed.
If Jia Xu was normal, Chen Sheng would definitely dig out his mind, do enough Mingjun's attitude, and dig up Jia Xu's body and mind......
There are many means, such as Liu Bei's three visits to the thatched house and Zhuge Liang, which is wonderful.
But it's a pity that Jia Xu's guy is not normal.
This guy is indifferent to fame and fortune, which can be seen from what this guy does. There is an astonishing genius in the air, but no matter which lord he serves, he is like a lazy pig, kicking and moving, and if he doesn't kick, it is like air, which can be completely ignored.
His brother Zhang Xiu was lucky and won Jia Xu. But it was unfortunate that Jia Xu was never used.
Faced with such a person, Chen Sheng also felt a little helpless. Therefore, Chen Sheng rarely talked and met Jia Xu in private.
And this time, Chen Sheng planned to use Cao Ying's threat as a breakthrough to discuss with Jia Xu how to deal with it, so as to cultivate trust between the two.
And, in front of Jia Xu, he erected an image of humbly seeking advice.
Thinking about it, Chen Sheng took a deep breath and said solemnly to Jia Xu: "I have a new foundation for my brother, and my position is unstable. And Cao Ying's soldiers came to the city, that is, they did not attack the city, and they did not retreat. Seeing that the autumn harvest is coming, if Cao Ying's troops are in chaos, Nanyang will definitely be in chaos. Wen He is a wise man in the world, I don't know if there is a plan to teach me? ”
Yixi's words are a bit literary, but they are also needed. This is an attitude of respect, respect for Jia Xu.
In fact, if Chen Sheng doesn't do this, Jia Xu can also feel that Chen Sheng respects him and relies on him. Not to mention anything else, just compare the attitudes of Chen Sheng and Zhang Xiu, Jia Xu can clearly feel it.
Although Zhang Xiu's attitude towards him is respectful, he has a little bit of martial arts contempt for literati, and at critical moments, he will impulsively disobey his advice.
But Chen Sheng didn't feel this way at all.
Therefore, Jia Xu himself has no ill feelings towards Chen Sheng, and feels that staying in Nanyang now is more comfortable than staying in Nanyang during the Zhang Xiu period.
And Chen Sheng also has ambitions, seeing that the business of Wang Ba is there.
What's more, Chen Sheng actually said that in four or five years, he would be able to enter Xiangyang. This is about three or four years less than Jia Xu's judgment.
Jia Xu wanted to see for himself how Chen Sheng did it. Therefore, Jia Xu is very satisfied with his current position, identity, and environment.
Therefore, there is no need for Chen Sheng to deliberately lower his posture and humbly seek advice, as long as Chen Sheng can have a gentle attitude, Jia Xu does not mind giving advice to Chen Sheng.
In fact, Jia Xu had already thought of a way to deal with Cao Ying. It's just that his surname is like this, Chen Sheng doesn't ask, he doesn't say.
And since Chen Sheng asked, he knew everything.
Therefore, Jia Xu didn't sell Guanzi, just stroked his chin, looked up at Chen Sheng and said, "I have two strategies, and I ask the general to decide." ”
"Come on." Chen Sheng knew that Jia Xu had goods in his stomach, and immediately said when he heard the words.
"The next strategy is to send people to provoke, challenge, and lead Cao Ying to fight." Jia Xu said.
"I'm afraid it's a little hard." Chen Sheng frowned when he heard this, and said embarrassedly. "The last time I provoked Cao Hong, I was full of favor, but I didn't succeed. What's more, Cao Ying? ”
A strong man, once he makes up his mind to be a turtle with a shrunken head, it is unimaginable for ordinary people to endure humiliation and burden. And Cao Ying is the strongman among the strongmen. With this move, Chen Sheng really didn't have much confidence.
"Not really." Jia Xu shook his head, with a rare smile on his face, and said: "The general provoked Cao Hong, full of favor, just insulting. And now in addition to the insults, the general also has Cao Hong's body. If Cao Hong is dismembered, pieces will be thrown to Cao Ying, or even the body will be desecrated in public. Can Cao Ying hold back? ”
When Chen Sheng heard this, he immediately gasped.
When it comes to desecrating corpses, Chen Sheng can't bear to do it. Just like last time, Chen Sheng returned Dian Wei and Cao Ang's corpse to Cao Ying.
And now, Jia Xu actually wants to dismember Cao Hong's body, or even desecrate.
Chen Sheng was naturally cold when he heard this. The guy in front of him is really vicious, and he will do whatever it takes to win, and he is worthy of being a figure in the cholera world.
How, though? Chen Sheng didn't have any disgust, although he couldn't bear to dismember a fierce general like Cao Hong. But he is not pedantic, in order to get rid of Cao Ying, he really has no choice but to do it.
However, this is only the next step. Isn't there a better strategy? Therefore, Chen Sheng did not make a decision immediately, but asked, "What is the best policy?" ”
"The best strategy depends on the heavens." Jia Xu said.
"Heavenly?" Chen Sheng was very puzzled, what does this have to do with God?
"Last time, Cao Hongbing came to the city. The continuous heavy rain caused the city wall of Guangcheng to collapse. If there were heavy rains this time, we would be able to destroy the walls from within. Although Cao Ying did not move, he also wanted to look for opportunities. Once the city wall collapses, Cao Ying will most likely not be able to resist attacking. In addition, when the general calculated well, he sent the general to Xiangyang for help. In this way, Liu Biao will definitely send troops. ”
Jia Xu told his best policy.
"Wonderful."
Chen Sheng couldn't help but shoot the case in his heart.
Regardless of Jia Xu's best or lower strategy, he only went for one purpose, leading Cao Ying to send troops. However, the next strategy is to provoke Cao Ying, which is a bit of luck, and luck exists.
If you want to achieve it, it is a little difficult, even if you make a fuss about Cao Hong's corpse.
The best strategy is to use fighter planes as a lure, which is undoubtedly much more clever.
Therefore, the next policy is the next policy, and the upper policy is the best policy.
And how to decide?
