Chapter 666, upper, middle and lower three strategies
Cheng Yuqi's beard stood up, this move was so poisonous that it was almost going to die with Chen Qi. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Pang Tong sneered disdainfully, "I just said, Shiyuan has always been good at winning by surprise, not to mention, the city of Xiangyang is strong, the city is high and the walls are thick, even if the embankment breaks, our casualties are far smaller than those of the righteous army, not to mention, isn't there still Xiahoudun to rescue you, what?" I, Pang Shiyuan, are not afraid of death, but you are so flustered? ”
Cao Cao turned his head to look at Pang Tong, and his heart was shocked, whether it was the best policy or the middle policy, if it could be as Pang Tong expected, it would be extremely beneficial to Cao Cao.
However, the flooding of Xiangyang, Cao Cao's lifelong expedition, this kind of strategy that almost ended up with the enemy, he had never heard of it.
What's more, Xiangyang is the seat of Jingzhou, there are many famous families in this city, and the heavy money and food in the city are immeasurable, even if Xiahoudun can rescue in time, what about the hundreds of thousands of people in the city?
Even if Chen Qi is repelled, Cao Cao's situation will be extremely embarrassing, the forced conscription has already made the heavens angry and resentful, and then Xiangyang will be drowned, after the world knows the truth, Cao Cao will inevitably fall into the whirlpool of verbal criticism.
The top strategy is dangerous, and the middle strategy is poisonous, but the effect, I have to say, can play a miraculous effect of turning the tide!
The surprise attack on the Tiger Prison forced Zhuge Liang to send troops to Jizhou; Flooding Xiangyang can also make Chen Chip's 100,000 army come to naught in an instant, and when the time comes, Chen Cut wants to take Jingzhou again, which is undoubtedly a fool's dream.
Pang Tong sighed again, and two strategies in a row were not adopted.
Pang Tong stabilized his mind, so he had to say again, "Make a decision, let Xun Yu lead people to withdraw from Yanzhou, and attack Chen Qi from behind us, Cao Xiu still has 50,000 troops around him, Xiahou Dun also has 50,000 troops around him, plus the 100,000 troops on our side, even if Chen Qi's army is strong, it is only 100,000 people, as long as he fights, he will not dare to touch Jingxiang." ”
"Then if you do this, isn't it equivalent to giving Yanzhou to Chen for nothing?" Xun You retorted.
Pang Tong nodded, it was a tacit acquiescence, Pang Tong explained, "It is precisely because of the lack of troops of the lord and the large amount of territory that he can be forced into danger by Chen Jiao, we should also send troops here, and rescue there, we are indirectly led by Chen Zhuo's nose, sooner or later, not only Yanzhou is not guaranteed, I am afraid that Jingzhou is also dangerous, and when the time comes, Jiangdong will be regained by Sun Quan and lost land, we have no way to go to heaven, no door to enter the ground, where will we go?" Only a strong man with a broken wrist can turn the tide and abandon Yanzhou, why not? ”
Pang Tong's three strategies, any of which made Cao Cao's heart light up.
As if he was in a deep fog, he regained the guiding light and gave Cao Cao hope again.
Cao Cao waved his hand, frowned, and seriously thought about the pros and cons of the three strategies, and Cheng Yu and the others were also silent.
Regardless of the strategy, at least, in the current situation, they have no way, but Pang Tong can come up with a countermeasure, and there are still three strategies at once.
The upper policy is too dangerous, the middle policy is too poisonous, but the lower policy makes Cao Cao feel distressed, even if he can win against Chen Qi, Zhao Yun and Chen Deng and others can quickly seize Yanzhou.
"Report, lord, Chen Qi has begun to besiege the city."
Just when Cao Cao was undecided, suddenly Xiahou Shang hurriedly ran in from the city tower. (I wrote that Xiahou Shang was sent to Yanzhou before, but I wrote it wrong, it should be that Xiahou Lan and Zhao Yun are fellow villagers, so everyone should take care of it.) )
"What? Could it be that Chen Qi is going to enter the army. ”
Cao Cao hurriedly led people to climb the city tower, standing on the city tower, looking into the distance, Cao Cao was slightly stunned, it looked like a siege, but it didn't look like it.
Chen Qi's generals, all the infantry were connected together, and the four city gates of the east, west, north and south were besieged.
However, the 100,000 rebel army, although it seems to be many, can't stop Cao Cao's breakthrough at all, because Cao Cao also has 100,000 troops around him, but Chen Qiao's arrangement of troops puts the cavalry at the forefront, it seems that it is a siege, but it is not to attack the city, after all, no one will use cavalry to attack the city!
Cao Cao turned his head to look at Pang Tong, "Shiyuan, what does Chen Qi mean?" ”
Today, Cao Cao is an eye-opener, is Chen Qi going to use cavalry to attack the city? Unless he has water in his head.
"Lord, in Yi Shiyuan's opinion, this is a signal that Chen Qi wants to launch a counterattack, he does not want to attack the city, but to lead us out of the city, and then use the advantage of the cavalry to constantly eat away at the vitality of our Cao soldiers. The lord, Zhang Liao was defeated, Cao Pi was ambushed, Jiangxia was lost, and next, there will inevitably be more news that is not favorable to us, the lord will send troops sooner or later, and Chen Qi's position is to wait for us to send troops, as soon as we send troops, he will let the cavalry charge. ”
"Gao, it's really smart, and there are capable people under Chen's account."
After listening to Pang Tong's explanation, Cao Cao couldn't help but give a thumbs up and praise.
Pang Tong also nodded and agreed, "At least that Xu Shu Jia Xu will not lose his talent to me." ”
Although he is arrogant and conceited, Pang Tong is self-aware, he and Zhuge Liang are both praised out, with high fame and extenuating circumstances, but Xu Shu is tempered by himself step by step, although he is not famous, but over the years, every performance has impressed the world.
and the poisoner Jia Xu, Pang Tong didn't think that he would lose to himself.
Next, it was true that Chen Qi launched a counterattack, first Jia Xu led the troops to kill all the wealthy families in Fancheng, without exception, and distributed the finances to the nearby people as usual.
After Chen Deng occupied Jiangxia, he also continued to send troops to attack the surrounding towns; Ganning's navy also continued to harass everywhere; Zhao Yun, who was in Guandu, also continued to increase his troops to put pressure on Cao Bing; Even Yuan Shao, who was too guarded by Bohai, was ready to move.
Cao Cao has no reason not to send troops, bad news and urgent reports keep coming, Cao Cao, who is anxious, his hair is getting grayer and whiter, and his headache has become more and more uncomfortable recently.
After finally regaining consciousness, Cao Cao hurriedly found Pang Tong, "Shiyuan, you go and arrange it, the old man has already thought about it, so let's choose a strategy." ”
Pang Tong shook his head lightly, and did not persuade again, he knew that although Cao Cao was good at adopting good advice, he was very assertive, even if he valued himself, he would not obey his own words.
Walking out of Cao Cao's house, Pang Tong looked up at the sky and sighed lightly, "Guo Jia, Guo Jia, although my Pang Tong's talent is not lost to you, and under Cao Gong's account, it is also extremely important, but I am still not as good as you, if it is you, things will be much easier." ”
For Guo Jia, although Cao Cao will not obey his words, at least as a confidant, if Guo Jia proposes three strategies, Cao Cao will definitely not choose the next strategy. (To be continued.) )
