Chapter 224: Achilles' heel

(3rd shift, ask for recommendation votes, ask for votes, there is a 4th shift at night)

Liu Xuan led the army to cover up for a while, then led the troops back and did not continue to pursue. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Don't chase after the poor, this is the basic truth.

The soldiers under Tian Zhao's command are not without the strength to fight, and there is no need to fight to the death now.

After returning to the camp, the soldiers in the army were excited and excited for today's victory. Tian Zhao took control of the Beihai Kingdom, so he led his troops to kill. Although Guo Jia and Guan Hai commanded the soldiers to resist the attack from the Youzhou army, the soldiers never defended and did not fight.

Now that I have killed it happily, my heart is finally happy.

The big tent of the Chinese army!

Everyone sat down with smiles on their faces.

Kong Rong said: "The prince defeated Tian Zhao and boosted morale, and the morale of the army was truly stabilized. ”

Zhou Cang rubbed his hands and said: "The lord is back, and now he is waiting to take down Tian Zhao's dog head." ”

Guan Hai said: "According to Master Guo's plan, it will be successful soon." ”

Everyone is quite excited.

Liu Xuan took over and said in a deep voice: "Tian Zhao's matter must be handled as soon as possible." We now have to deal not only with the affairs of Beihai Province, but also with the chaos in Dongnae County. When I was in Chang'an, I had already been appointed by the imperial court and was appointed as the county guard of Donglai County. ”

Wow!

As soon as he said this, everyone was even more happy.

When he came back last night, Liu Xuan only dealt with the backlog of things and discussed the plan against Tian Zhao. The matter of Donglai County was not raised. As soon as he said it now, Guan Hai, Zhou Cang and other people who didn't know were excited.

The better Liu Xuan is, the more they will have a head.

Guo Jia Zhengse said: "The plan has been launched, and there will be results soon." ”

……

Youzhou Army, camp.

The big tent of the Chinese army!

Tian Zhao's face was burning with anger, his eyes were full of anger, and he scolded: "Yan Li and Du Bian, two wastes, one was killed by Guan Hai and the other by Liu Xuan, and now the army's morale is in turmoil and morale is falling, they are all harmed." If they win, today's battle between the two armies will break through Liu Xuan's camp, and these two fools will ruin the general's big thing. ”

Cao Zheng sat down and didn't speak.

Now that Tian Zhao is angry, he can only talk to himself, so it is better not to speak.

Tian Zhao calmed down as soon as he finished venting his anger.

Cao Zheng observed his words and said: "Yan Li and Du Bian were killed, although it affected the general's arrangement. But I have to be an adult, Liu Xuan is indeed very fierce. The general also saw the situation at that time, and it was easy for Liu Xuan to kill Du Bian. ”

After a pause, Cao Zheng said: "According to Liu Xuan's martial arts, there are almost very few people on our side who can compete with Liu Xuan. I'm afraid that only Zhao Yun, the general next to the lord, can compete with Liu Xuan. ”

"Zhao Yun?"

Tian Zhao's eyes narrowed and asked, "Do you mean to let Zhao Yun deal with Liu Xuan?" ”

Cao Zheng shook his head and said, "General, that's impossible." The White Horse under the command of General Gongsun was commanded by Zhao Yun, he was by General Gongsun's side all the year round, and he had to assist General Gongsun in attacking Yuan Shao, so he had no time to come here. ”

Tian Zhao frowned and said, "Then what do you mean?" ”

Cao Zheng smiled slightly and said, "If you want to defeat Liu Xuan, you don't necessarily have to face him head-on. One word - drag, this is enough to defeat Liu Xuan. Liu Xuan's martial arts are strong, and the soldiers under his command are also unstoppable, and their morale is high. But Guanyang County has one biggest shortcoming, which is Liu Xuan's fatal weakness. ”

"What weakness?" Tian Zhao couldn't wait to ask.

Cao Zheng replied: "Grain! ”

Tian Zhao thought about it carefully and said, "There is no problem with the grain in Guanyang County." ”

Cao Zheng said: "The humble post has always been concerned about the food problem in Guanyang County, which is very simple, a small Guanyang County has tens of thousands of troops, and the food consumed every day is not a small amount. ”

"With only one acre and three points of land in Guanyang County, it is definitely impossible to maintain so many troops."

"I thought about it carefully, and I think that Liu Xuan was able to maintain the strength of Guanyang County before because Kong Rong of the Beihai Kingdom supported him, but now that the Beihai Kingdom is under the control of the general, can Liu Xuan still maintain it?"

Cao Zheng swore and said: "In order to determine the authenticity and falsehood, the humble position will be carefully verified. ”

"During this time, Guanyang County sent a lot of people to buy grain. The grain purchased by these people all flowed into Liu Xuan's army, and they all served Liu Xuan. ”

"From this, it can be concluded that Liu Xuan's food must be tight."

Cao Zheng looked confident and asserted: "Liu Xuan's food is not enough, without food, he is a tiger without teeth." Even if the general does not take the initiative to attack, in the end, Liu Xuan will have to break himself. ”

Tian Zhao's eyes lit up and said, "Wonderful! ”

When marching and fighting, food is fundamental.

Once the food is gone, nothing can be done.

Tian Zhao instantly became excited, and said excitedly: "Next, we will wait, wait for Liu Xuan's army to appear in chaos." When the time comes, Ben will lead the army into battle and break through Liu Xuan's camp in one fell swoop. ”

"The general is wise!"

Tian Zhao gave a thumbs up and praised.

"Report!"

Suddenly, soldiers walked in from outside the tent.

Tian Zhao asked, "What's the matter?" ”

The soldier bowed and saluted, and reported: "General Hui, we caught four people who intended to sneak into Tingxian County on the mountain trail at the junction of Tingxian County and Guanyang County. ”

"Bring it on!"

Tian Zhao flicked his sleeves, and the soldiers escorted people in.

There were four people who came in. One of them had whip marks on his face, and it was bloody and terrifying.

Tian Zhao asked, "What do you want to sneak into Tingxian County?" ”

"Plop!"

The four men knelt down and trembled.

Among them, the injured man spoke: "My lord, we are good people, and we entered Tingxian because it was difficult to escape. ”

"Bold!"

Tian Zhao shouted angrily and said coldly: "If you dare to deceive the general, if you come, drag down the staff and punish twenty." A group of soldiers immediately walked up. This battle frightened the four people and hurriedly spoke, and the injured man said again: "My lord, I said, I said." ”

Tian Zhao waved his hand to let the soldiers retreat, and said, "Say it!" ”

The injured man replied: "Don't dare to deceive your lordship, we are merchants under Uncle Liu Huang, and we went to Tingxian to buy grain." ”

When Tian Zhao heard this, his eyes lit up.

The injured man continued: "There is a war in Guanyang County, and the consumption of grain is huge, and the food in the territory is almost bought, and there is no food to buy. Donglai County is also rampant with bandits, and it is impossible to buy food. We wanted to buy food in a different place, so we wanted to go to Tingxian to try it. The wound on the villain's face fell because he couldn't buy food, and he begged the general to be merciful and spare the villain's life. ”

Tian Zhao glanced at Cao Zheng, and Cao Zheng bowed slightly, indicating that his words were true. Tian Zhao asked, "Mr. Cao, what do you think of what to do with them?" Is it killed? Or what to do? ”

Cao Zheng thought for a while, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and said, "There is a way to do it." ”

Tian Zhao asked, "How to deal with it?" ”

Cao Zheng replied, "Go back to where they came from." The general sent a team of soldiers to escort them back, and then sent people to publicize the news of Liu Xuan's lack of food. Even if Liu Xuan wins today, the news of the lack of food spreads, and the army will naturally be in turmoil. ”

"Good!"

Tian Zhao's eyes were full of joy, and he said, "Mr. Cao, you are here to handle this matter." ”

"No!"

Cao Zheng stood up and went down with four people.
