Qi Cheng was wrongly loved by the lord, and the three armies were overseen to invade the military, and he hoped that the princes would not be contemptuous and help each other. He Qi said leisurely: "How to fight the Shanyue War this time, the lord has no explicit order. It's all up to me to wait, I don't know what General Qiao suggests. He Qi asked Qiao Ren not because of how clever Qiao Ren was or because of his rich experience, but because Xindu County was Qiao Ren's home field, and Qiao Ren had been in Xindu County for nearly half a year, and he knew Xindu Shanyue better than them.

Hearing this, Qiao Ren bowed, got up and said to the people in the hall: "There are 500,000 people in Shanyue and the so-called thieves in Xindu County, and there are nearly 100 families, but only three families have more than 10,000 soldiers. They are Zu Xi, Jiao Ji and Fei Zhan, with Jiao Ji as the leader, there are nearly 130,000 people. A certain company has decided last year that the focus has been attack-oriented, and the remaining two are divided and attacked by attacking the heart. Qiao Ren brought the strategy he had discussed with all the subordinate officials last year to He Qi and Sun Sanyi.

After talking for a quarter of an hour, Qiao Ren finished talking about the situation and countermeasures in Shanyue: "Now all the small tribes in Shanyue have gone down the mountain, there are about 60,000 people, and the rest of the middle tribes are also watching. Zu Xi and Fei Zhan also have the intention of surrendering, only Jiao Ji's family still has the heart to fight against the lord. “

"Hmm. General Qiao is the Taishou of Xindu County, and a certain family is just a foil. Since the general has already made up his mind, a certain family can only be in charge of military affairs. He Qi pondered and felt that this method was feasible, and Jiao already accounted for three points of the strength of Shanyue in Xindu County, as long as he was defeated, the rest would be nothing more than a plate of loose sand.

He Qimeng got up and said aloud to everyone in the hall: "The generals obey orders. ”

"Yes"

"After the third day, the soldiers will be sent to Xiuyang."

"Whoa"

------------------------------------ the dividing line of all evils ------------------------------------

After January, the armies of He Qi, Qiao Ren, and Sun Yi surrounded the mountains of Xiuyang County, where Jiao had been located. Originally, Sun Yi wanted to forcibly attack the mountain, but he was persuaded by Qiao Ren, and persuaded him to follow He Qi's arrangement on the grounds that He Qi was the commander of the three armies. Xiuyang County is now Huizhou, and since ancient times, there have been many low mountains and hills, and the jungle is dense and deep. If, according to Sun Yi's idea, the attack is strong, as long as Jiao has already taken the main force to hide in the mountains and is constantly harassing with a small force, I am afraid that the army of the three will not last long.

"Ziyan, what do you mean by the Metropolitan Governor? We have been in Xiuyang for more than 20 days, and we have neither called for a battle nor attacked the mountain, so we went down to the village. What's the use of staring at the stockade on the hill. In the big tent, Sun Yi couldn't stop scratching at Qiao Ren.

"The third brother is in a hurry, the governor of the capital is so safe, the people in the deep mountains are much more familiar than us, if you take the liberty of killing, the army may lose too much. Moreover, there is only one road in the treacherous terrain of Jiao's main village, and our army is still attacking on the back, which is not easy! Hearing Sun Yi's scratching, Qiao Ren couldn't turn a blind eye and ignore it, so he could only comfort Sun Yi. God knows, Qiao Ren's rhetoric Sun Yi heard the cocoon.

Sun Yi listened to Qiao Ren's comings and goings and said anxiously: "It's a cliché, of course I know that the governor of the capital is safe, but if it goes on like this, the army's heart is unstable." Although it has only been a month, the army of me and the Grand Governor is a guest army. It will hurt morale for a long time! ”

Qiao Ren thought about it carefully, and the army gathered, the grain and grass in Xindu were limited and it would be difficult to last for a long time, and now that Qiao Ren had brought the army to Xiuyang, if the mountains in other places were to attack, it would be a trouble. So he said: "What the third brother said also makes sense. ”

"Yes," Qiao Ren had a little clue after thinking about it, "Let's besiege but not attack, but we can let Jiao already come down." ”

"Let the coke come down? Easier said than done. "Even if Sun Yi thinks of himself as Jiao, I'm afraid he won't just come down and fight Sun Jun directly." If Ziyan has any clever plan, don't sell it. Come on. ”

Qiao Ren smiled and didn't answer, but asked, "How can the third brother and the two armies win?" ”

Sun Yizhi didn't think about it, Qiao Ren asked the question, "If the two armies hold each other and seek a quick victory, it is nothing more than cutting off their food routes and using celestial phenomena." But the grain road can be cut off, such as Zhou Bo broke the Wu Chu army because the Wu Chu army came from an expedition, and once the grain road is broken, his heart will be chaotic. In the past, it was said that Cao Mengde broke Yuan Shao because the grain and grass of Yuan Shao's army were burned by Cao Ying, and the army's morale was in chaos. But now we don't know where Jiao's grain and grass are, and even if we do, he is also hoarded on the mountain, what can we do. Using celestial phenomena, now Jiao is hiding in the mountains and not on the flat ground, and the water attack is naturally ineffective. Sun Yi really couldn't figure out what medicine was sold in Qiao Ren's gourd, "Water and fire are ruthless, if you can't attack water, it's fire, is it possible that you want to set fire to the mountain?" ”

Qiao Ren didn't want Sun Yi to think about it so much, it seems that he has been thinking about how to defeat Jiao Ji for the past month. After all, this is Sun Yi's first battle, but what he said He Qiaoren thinks is far from what he thinks. "Third brother, what I want is to cut off his food. Hearing this, Sun Yi wanted to interject but was interrupted by Qiao Ren, "Third brother, don't worry, wait for me to finish." When I say grain, I don't mean grain, but water. ”

"Water source?" Sun Yi doesn't think this is a good plan, "It's May now, it's the rainy season, even if the water source is cut off." In fact, Sun Yi is right, even if the water source is cut off during the rainy season, is it difficult for Jiao to not receive rain?

"Third brother, I recently observed the sky at night and found that there will be no rain in the next half a month, which is a good time." Qiao Ren doesn't watch the sky at night, but he remembers that there was a drought in the Jiangnan area in the eighth year of Jian'an.

"What? Isn't this a matter of heaven? Ziyan, hurry up and tell He Dudu. "I'm afraid Sun Yi's anxious surname can't be changed, and he is in his early twenties.

"What" In the big tent, He Qi was very surprised when he heard Sun Yi and Qiao Ren's suggestion: "General Qiao is sure. ”

"This!" He Qi's words made Qiao Ren not know how to answer. "Ren Xi said that he once met Ji Xianchang by chance, and he got the stargazing technique given by the immortal chief, and there should be no mistakes." Qiao Ren had no choice but to move out of Yu Ji, the big god stick.

In Wu County, Yu Ji, who was teaching Huang Xu the internal strength guidance technique, suddenly sneezed. "Immortal Chang is fine," Huang Xu, whose complexion had improved significantly, asked with concern. "It's okay, it's okay. I'm afraid there's a little rabbit cub thinking of me, so let's continue. Trifocal ・・・・・・・"

Obviously, as soon as Yu Ji's name came out, everyone in Jiangdong knew it. "Since it was taught by Immortal Chang, there shouldn't be any problem. In the past, it was said that the immortal chief had begged for rain in Huiji County, and it seemed that this kind of stargazing technique should be true. He Qi not only believed in Yu Ji's stargazing skills, but also thought that even if it rained, it would not be a big deal. After all, it is also a good thing to cut off the scorched water source, after all, it can't rain every day.

"But there's another problem. Since Jiao has dared to hide in the mountains, his water source must be hidden. We don't know where it is, how to break it. He Qi is worthy of being a veteran of the battle, and his rich experience points out the joints in one word.

When Sun Yi heard this, his mood was so depressed, he finally had something to do, and it was in the soup again? Apparently not. "If Ren knows a person, he must know where the source of Jiao's water is."

"Oh" Both Sun Yi and He Qi were all eyes lit up when they heard this, "Who is it?"

Qiao Ren cuffed his cuffs and said, "It is Cao Wuxun, a thief from Xindu County." Last year, when I invited the leaders of the Yue people to a banquet, although Jiao had not come, there was a person in his village who admired my Han culture, abandoned the thief and joined me, and was appointed by me as a thief. His people have lived in the mountains here for a long time, and they must be familiar with the grass and trees here, and they must know where the source of Jiao's water is."

"Please also ask General Qiao to invite the thief Cao to ask." He Qi said

"Exactly, exactly." Sun Yi on the side is also a helper.
