Chapter 220: Poisoner

Thinking of this, Hu Che'er couldn't help but hug his chest, took a few steps back, and said urgently: "General Han, if you want me to go into battle to kill the enemy, the young general will not frown, but if you want to force the young general to ** you, you will not be killed!" ”

After Hu Che'er finished speaking, he saw Han Jin and everyone in the tent stunned, and then stayed on the spot.

Guo Jia next to him couldn't help laughing, and he had already laughed. Han Jin glared at him, but he couldn't laugh or cry.

"Hu Che'er, you don't talk nonsense, there will be a credit for you to do, do you dare?" Han Jin deliberately said it with a provocative method.

Hu Che'er's eyes lit up, stared at Han Jin and said bluntly: "General, what are the good credits and benefits?" ”

"Whatever you want, as long as you can do it, will be given to you!"

Hu Che'er tilted his head and thought for a while, then suddenly sighed and said: "I don't seem to lack anything, forget it, as long as the general rewards me with some meat to eat, Hu Che'er will be grateful!" ”

"Eating meat? That's your ideal? Didn't General Zhang give you food before? Han Jin was immediately surprised. Zhang Xiu listened to it with a wry smile. hurriedly explained: "Lord, it's not that the last general won't give him food, it's just that this Hu Che'er has an amazing amount of food, one person can eat ten people, and every time the meal is distributed according to the person, he always can't eat enough." ”

When Han Jin heard this, he immediately smiled, "Hu Che'er, this time, as long as you make a great contribution, don't talk about eating meat, what you want to eat in the rest of your life, just ask Ben Jiang, as long as Ben Jiang still has food to eat, he will definitely not starve you, how about it?" ”

Hu Che'er was overjoyed, "It's still General Han Da's generosity, please tell the general, as long as Hu Che'er can do it, he will definitely live up to the general's high expectations, and he will have meat to eat when he comes back!" Everyone laughed here, this guy did not leave his old profession in three sentences, the previous sentence was the same, and the latter sentence showed its true face again.

"Come here!" Han Jin beckoned, let Hu Che'er walk closer, and asked softly, "Do you know Hu Chi'er?" ”

Hu Che'er was stunned for a moment, then his face sank, and he said for a while: "General Han, the junior general knows him, he is still the cousin of the junior general, but he is ...... The youngster didn't like him."

"Oh, why don't you like him?"

"This person is too greedy for money, anyway, the young general doesn't like him very much!" Hu Che'er pouted.

Han Jin smiled slightly, "He's greedy for money, people always have shortcomings, he is not greedy for money, you haven't been able to make this credit yet!" You listened to Ben, you sneaked into the city, but like this...... Do you understand? ”

Hu Che'er listened to Ciri confused and wanted to ask. Han Jin shook his hand and said, "You don't need to understand, you just need to do what Ben General instructs, and when the time comes, Ben will remember you a lot!" After speaking, he patted Hu Che'er on the shoulder, with a smile on his face.

Hu Che'er blinked a few times, and his bull-sized head finally nodded.

At the same time, in Xingyang City, Niu Fu and Jia Xu were also discussing the military situation.

"Strategist, look at it, in today's battle, our army is equal in number to them, and they have a geographical advantage, but when it comes to casualties, it is our side that has a little more, how can it be good if it goes on like this?"

Jia Xu still looked like an ancient well, lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, and waited for Niu Fu's constantly moving body to stop before he slowly spoke.

"Is the general not confident, since this is the case, let's surrender early!"

As soon as these words came out, Niu Fu suddenly jumped up. "Surrender, military division, although the casualties of our army are a little bigger, but they are not comfortable, besides, it will not be a problem to hold on to Xingyang with the gift of the city!"

"How long does the general think he can hold on, even if he can withstand this wave of Han Jin's attacks, can he resist the next wave of attacks? Even if he holds on, but there are no reinforcements outside, no food and grass inside, what will the general take to fight? ”

A few questions in a row, and Niu Fu was suddenly dumbfounded.

"The meaning of the military advisor, surrender like this, no, resolutely not!" Niu Fu objected loudly.

Jia Xu looked like a thunderous voice, and said lightly: "In addition to surrendering, there is only one thing left to break through, and if you want to break through, you must first win a battle to improve the morale of the army." ”

As soon as Niu Fu heard about the victory, his eyes immediately lit up, and his body, which couldn't stop moving, hurriedly stopped, grabbed Jia Xu's arm and asked urgently: "Win the battle, how to fight, what is the strategy of the military advisor, teach me quickly!" ”

"Surrender!" Jia Xu said two words lightly, but Niu Fu was confused.

"What the hell does the military advisor mean, but I make it clear!" He scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously, looked at Jia Xu's expression, and gradually became a little unkind, this old guy dares to play with me!

"Of course it's not a joke on the general!" Jia Xu said lightly as if he could see through Niu Fu's thoughts. "It's just that the general wants to win, and the only way to surrender is to surrender!"

"Surrender?" Niu Fu muttered to himself twice, looked at Jia Xu's expression, and became kinder.

"Yes, it's a fraudulent surrender, but before that, the general will continue to defend the city, and he will catch more strong men in the city to defend the city, and leave the elite troops behind, waiting to be killed in one fell swoop!"

"Whether the military advisor can say it clearly or not, Ben General can't understand."

Jia Xu sighed, with such a pig as the leader, no one would feel relaxed.

"The general asked the strong men in the city to defend the city, resolutely resist, and surrender when he can't hold it, Han Jin will trust him more. When the time comes, the general surrenders, and Han Jin surrenders, he will inevitably have to take the soldiers out of the city, and his army will take over the defense of the city. In this way, our opportunity was saved. ”

...... "There are 30,000 defenders in the city, we know, Han Jin also knows, he will guess how many soldiers there are in our city according to the casualties of our army, but unfortunately, the general has always been a strong man in the city before this, and the real elite division is still hidden, so he must not know that the general still retains the elite division in Xingyang City, when the time comes, the general will be surprised, attack it unprepared, and suddenly kill, he will definitely be able to kill Han Jin by surprise, maybe capture the thief and capture the king, and make a contribution in one fell swoop!" ”

Jia Xu spoke eloquently, looking unfazed, but Niu Fu next to him had already heard the joy. Praise repeatedly.

"The sergeant's plan is wonderful, if it is successful, the first merit of the military division should be remembered! Ben will let people mobilize the hardcover in the city to defend the city, these mud legs, if they die like this, they will be considered dead! ”

He said this in his mouth, but in his heart he was scolding Jia Xu for being extremely vicious, in this way, he was undoubtedly gambling with the lives of thousands of hardcover in the city, but he had led the army for many years, so naturally he would not give up his upcoming victory for the life and death of those ordinary people.

With Jia Xu's strategy, Niu Fu took away the elite in the city and made up for it with strong men, the progress of Han's attack on the city suddenly became much larger, and the casualties of the soldiers suddenly decreased compared to yesterday, but under Niu Fu's desperate resistance, Han Jin certainly wanted to take Xingyang in one fell swoop, but it was not so easy, not to mention, Han Jin also thought that if his clever plan was successful, he would take Xingyang without blood, so that the next day's battle, both sides were weak, and the corpse data under the city was obviously an obvious feature.

However, this phenomenon suddenly changed in the third day, Han attacked urgently, Niu Fu actually defended steadily, and in the middle of the siege, he also sent an army of about 5,000 people to kill it, Han Jin was unprepared for a while, and was beaten against it, but with the entry of the Xuanjia elite cavalry, the 5,000 army that was killed quickly fell behind, and in the end, in addition to dozens of horsemen escaped, almost all the troops were wiped out.

"General, congratulations, it looks like this Xingyang is about to be taken!" Han Jin is handsome, and Guo Jia said with a smile.

"Why did Bong Hyo say this?" Han Jin took a sip of tea and asked without looking back.

"There are 30,000 defenders in the city, after three days of killing the enemy, 20,000 have been killed and wounded, and how can an army of 10,000 hold on?

Han Jin was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed, "What is the clever plan of Feng Xiao, come on!" ”

"I can't talk about the clever plan, in fact, it is the eldest brother's heart war, Dong Zhuo is dead, Niu Fu's subordinates have no fighting heart, these three casualties are huge, there are no reinforcements, with the guess of his subordinates, Niu Fu must be saying that after the general breaks the city, he will slaughter the city to threaten the defenders in the city to hold the city, and it is clear that as long as the general surrenders in front of the city, those who fall into reputation will not be killed, and the enemy army will be in chaos if the Guanxi soldiers and love are admonished!"

Han Jin's eyes lit up, he arranged for Hu Che'er to go in, although there were other arrangements, but he still hadn't seen his message for three days. Han Jin was also a little anxious in his heart. You must know that he is short of time at this time, and if he can take Xingyang as soon as possible, he can also turn back to Chang'an as soon as possible to stabilize people's hearts.

"Okay, since that's the case, Ming said that he would use this plan!" Han Jin made up his mind in an instant.

On the second day, the sky was shining, and the soldiers in the city were still sleeping and drinking and listening to the city, and suddenly remembered a ballad, and the soldiers suddenly woke up, and when they listened to it, they all shed tears.

Just because those songs are the songs of their hometown, most of these soldiers' hometowns were originally from Chang'an, but now they have become anti-thieves and left their hometowns. For a while, someone in a hurry couldn't help crying in a low voice.

They can hear the singing, and Niu Fu can naturally hear it clearly, don't look at Niu Fu's five big and three coarse, but his mind is actually extremely cautious. After thinking about it for a while, I also understood Han Jin's plan. "Embattled!" Ushisuke sighed in a low voice.

"It would be better if there were some deserters tonight!" Jia Xu beside him said in a low voice. Niu Fu nodded thoughtfully, and suddenly smiled for a while.

"It's not easy to send them to death, but don't you want to be a deserter!"

That night, Han Jin's men captured a few soldiers, but they looked like deserters in the city.

"Why did you run away?" Han Jin looked at the man in front of him and asked with a smile, "General, there is no food and grass in the city, the brothers are also homesick, and there are not many troops to collect, if the villain wants to live, he has to flee, beg the general to spare his life, the villain has ......"

"There is an eighty-year-old mother, and there are wives and children who want you to support, right?" Han Jin asked.

The soldier was stunned and asked for a while, "How did the general know?" ”

"How will Ben know, you don't need to know, how many of your brothers are there? How old is this year? How many children do you have? ”

"I ...... I am 21 years old, and I have only one child in my family, and I have five sons and seven daughters! "The soldier's mouth is still hard enough.

Han Jin nodded, and suddenly asked: "You are twenty-one years old, and your mother is eighty, which means that your mother gave birth to you at sixty, and you are twenty-one years old and have eleven children, which means that you started giving birth to children at the age of ten?" Your mother is really tough, but you're not bad, sure enough, the tiger mother has no rats! Han Jin said with a grin.

The man was stunned for a moment, and after a while, he suddenly spoke: "General." The villain is maintained by the old mother, my wife has five, each of them has given birth twice, and one is a twin, is this okay? ”

This time, it seemed that Han Jin was stunned, "Your kid is not slow to react, but it is not a violation of the marriage law, and it is also a big violation of family planning, you are enough to raid the house, how about it, mix with this general!" ”

The soldier did not expect that he would make up such a good thing, and he was immediately overjoyed, and fell to his knees and kowtowed vigorously, grateful.

The next day, Niu Fu sent someone to surrender, and Han Jin was not much surprised by this, it seemed to be unexpected, but it was actually reasonable. Niu Fu erected a white flag on the city and sent Han Jin a letter, saying that he would hand over the city defense.

"Bonghyo, what do you think about this?" After Han Jin sent someone over, he read the letter to Guo Jia.

Guo Jia smiled slightly and said: "The lord once said that this Jia Xu is not simple, but Niu Fu surrendered like this." ”

This is also where Ben Jiang suspects, but Jia Xu has another characteristic, he is very good at being a man and doing things, and he can also recognize the facts, Ben Jiang guesses, this is the essence of this matter! ”

In history, Jia Xu, known as the "poisoner", is full of tricks and has no last resort. When Li Dao and Guo Yan were in rebellion, he served as a strategist in Li Dao's tent, and after Li Dao and others failed, he became Zhang Xiu's strategist. Zhang Xiu had used his strategy to defeat Cao Ying twice, and before the Battle of Guandu, he persuaded Zhang Xiu to surrender to Cao Ying. Cao Ying fought against Yuan Shao in Guandu, broke Xiliang Ma Chao in Tongguan, and Han Sui, all of whom had Jia Xu's schemes. Cao Ying occupied Jingzhou and wanted to take the opportunity to go east along the river to dissuade Jia Xu, saying that the people should be appeased and wait for the opportunity, but Cao Ying did not comply, and was defeated in the Battle of Chibi. On the issue of Cao Yingli's successor, Jia Xu secretly helped Cao Pi. Cao Pi later called the emperor and named his officials as Taiwei and Marquis of Wei Shouting. Cao Pi asked whether Shu or Wu should be destroyed first, and Jia Xu suggested that the country should be governed first before using force, but Cao Pi did not listen, and sure enough, Wu was defeated in vain. Jia Xu thought that he was not Cao Ying's old minister, but he had a deep plan, so he was afraid that Cao Ying would be suspicious, so he adopted a self-preservation strategy, kept himself behind closed doors, did not associate with others in private, and his children did not marry the powerful. He was seventy-seven years old when he died. Later generations Yi Zhongtian also said in the Three Kingdoms: Jia Xu can judge the situation in the troubled times, he has lived the longest, and he has also saved his family. This is the real great wisdom, and Jia Xu may be the smartest person during the Three Kingdoms period.

In fact, the smartest thing about Jia Xu is that he will give advice to whoever he is, and throughout history, there are indeed not many strategists like him who have not retreated, and who can survive well.

Guo Jia saw that Han Jin suddenly fell silent, and suddenly smiled, "Lord, now I have the first opportunity, as long as I wait for him to fight steadily, step by step, and wait for Ming to say that his army will withdraw from the city, and the lord will send someone to take over the city defense, and keep Niu Fu and Jia Wenhe by his side, even if they have three heads and six arms, what kind of storm can they stir up?" ”

"Feng Xiao's words are exactly what I mean, that is, Zhang Xiu, Yide, Ming said that the two of you can accept the city defense, remember, carefully check the number of each other, be careful!"

Zhang Xiu and Zhang Fei agreed, looked at each other, and retreated together. But the minds are different.

Zhang Fei is an old man under Han Jin, and he is the first every time Han Jin is a general, which is understandable. But Zhang Xiu's heart was very excited, taking over the city defense, it seems simple, but it is a great achievement, Zhang Xiu is surrendering, compared to Zhang Fei, these veterans, he actually has a little outsider feeling in his heart, even if Han Jin's subordinates have no one to squeeze him out, but with the surrender of Dong Zhuo's subordinates, Han Jin's subordinates have gradually divided into factions, Yingchuan opera Zhicai Guo Jia These people are a faction, it turns out that Huang Zhong, Ganning, Zhang Fei and other veterans call themselves a faction, and Dong Zhuo's hands will become a faction. It's not obvious, but it's clear.

Han Jin naturally saw all this, but this was exactly what he wanted, so he looked at it in his eyes and remembered it in his heart, but he didn't care about it.

It's just that Zhang Xiu didn't expect that Han Jin was the first to order himself to accept Xingyang, which made him very excited.

Watching the two of them leave the tent, Han Jin got up slowly, and suddenly said, "Fengxiao, Niu Fu, I don't like this person very much!" ”

Guo Jia was slightly stunned and nodded, "Jia understands what the lord means, so let's deal with it!" After saying that, he retreated slightly, but his heart was quite uncalm, Han Jin did this, maybe others couldn't see it, but smart as Guo Jia faintly understood, in the final analysis, Han Jin was still not at ease with Jia Xu, and let himself solve Niu Fu earlier, in this way, even if Jia Xu had a lot of clever plans, he couldn't do anything. Thinking of this, Guo Jia couldn't help but feel a little jealous of Jia Xu in his heart, and at the same time, he was even more curious.

In Xingyang City, Niu Fu looked at Jia Xu and said in a deep voice: "Wenhe, now that everything is ready, it's time to fight tomorrow." Is just 3,000 armor enough? ”

Jia Xu smiled slightly, and said lightly: "There are not many soldiers, but they are fine!" The defenders of 12,000 Ming said that all out of the city, only six of these three thousand armor soldiers hid in the people's house, I expect that Han Xiuyuan will not enter the city easily, he will definitely send someone to accept the city first, everything is stable before entering the city, at that time, one, there is a large army to enter the city first, two, our army has been disarmed, he will be relaxed in his heart, when the time comes, the general will suddenly kill tomorrow night, Han Jin is invincible. Generals can make meritorious contributions. ”

Niu Fu heard Jia Xu's slight arrival, and his heart was already overjoyed.

"In that case, sir, go down and rest and rest, and this will be arranged! Ming said that it was Han Xiuyuan's death! Niu Fugang's teeth were wrong, as if Han Jin had already let him slaughter.

Jia Xu still doesn't invade the cold and heat, and the oil and salt don't enter. Nodding, he bowed and stepped back.

"Hu Chi'er, let's go, follow Ben to inspect the city!" Niu Fu seemed to be in high spirits, and called the deputy general Hu Chi'er to walk out. didn't notice a ruthless look flashing in Hu Chi'er's eyes.

Niu Fu was wearing armor, with a sword hanging from his waist, and Hu Chi'er behind him was holding a big axe in both hands, his eyes were cold, and he followed Niu Fu steadily.

The two of them walked to Xicheng first, and when they saw a large group of defenders sleeping on the ground, they couldn't help but be furious, kicked a person in front of them to wake up, and scolded angrily: "Bastard, let you defend the city here, but you sleep, if the enemy takes the opportunity to attack the city, even if you have nine heads, it will not be enough to cut off!" ”
