Xiangyang City, Jingzhou army gathered here, Guan Yu raised the account to dispatch the military horses, Guan Yu looked at the generals, and said loudly: "Shaoxian, I heard that your scout battalion is extremely good, and the performance of a scout that has been assigned to train for our army is also very good, think about it, Ye Youming's kid has already found out the details of the enemy army, tell me, what news do your scouts have?" ”

Huo Yi smiled: "My father-in-law has a good reputation, but Youming is indeed a talent in this area, and he is extremely talented." Youming, let's talk about it! ”

Ye Jiong was born with a peaceful temperament, which was to praise Guan Yu, at this moment, he was just calm and calm, took out a topographic map drawn by the scout camp, and analyzed it carefully: "The military horses in various parts of our army have not yet been deployed, but the Cao army in the north has already set up a formation. ”

However, it was said that Cao Cao pulled out the camp from Wancheng to the south, and went straight to the Cao army camp in the north of Xiangyang.

At this time, the posture of Cao's army was to defend the center and lead the attack, and the attack was on behalf of the defense. The people and horses hired by the Wen are all sailors, stationed in the upper reaches of Xiangshui through Xiangyang. Li Dian's troops were mostly foot soldiers, and Zhang He's two troops were combined to make a battalion, with a total of more than 50,000 military horses, stationed at the southern foot of Atou Mountain, more than 20 miles north of Xiangyang, and the camp was built on the mountain, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Cao Zhang and Xiahou Yuan are both cavalry, Xiahou Yuan's men and horses brought out of the Guanzhong Iron Cavalry, Cao Zhangnai is the most elite tiger and leopard cavalry of the Cao army, the two are stationed in the gentle terrain, suitable for cavalry training in the southwest of Caiyang more than ten miles, only thirty miles away from Xiangyang, but also close to Li Dian and Zhang He two generals to camp military horses, guarding the horns.

Xiahoudun's men and horses sit firmly in Deng County, which is regarded as the Chinese army of military horses everywhere, and is also responsible for the dispatch of grain and grass logistics for all armies. Xinye is the place where Lejin's people are stationed, and the main responsibility of its department is to play a mobile role. It is possible to support various ministries. ”

Ye Zhi made up his mind and looked at the generals in the tent, but everyone sighed for it, especially Gan Ning of the water division, until this moment, he knew that the scouts of the Jingnan Army had actually achieved such an extent, and in a short period of time, he had made the enemy's bottom line clear. The defeat of the Jiangdong army was really unjust.

You must know that Lejin only arrived in Xinye a few days ago, and even the military camp has not yet been completed, and Cao Cao has not yet arrived at the Cao army camp, and Ye Jiong has already stationed the Cao army's station, and even the main generals of the various armies, he did not elaborate, but how do you know that he has not obtained the detailed data of the military horses everywhere?

Guan Yu nodded: "Since we know the enemy's things, our army must also react!" Otherwise, once you fall into passivity. It is inevitable to be controlled step by step, and whether our army can defeat Cao's army in this battle depends on strategy, and second, it depends on whose hands the initiative is. If you have any suggestions, you can make them clear. ”

Zhao Lei was the first to get up: "Generals, let's look at the topography of the Xiangyang area, Jing Mountain on the left and Green Forest Mountain on the right. Since ancient times, Xiangyang is a dangerous place, and it is the throat of the north and the south, with Wanluo in the north and Jingyi in the south. They all have to pass through this city. is tired to think that Cao Jun's purpose is nothing else, it must be Xiangyang! ”

Everyone nodded, and everyone knew the topography.

Wang Fu picked up Zhao Lei's words: "Then, as long as our army holds Xiangyang, it will be enough to abort Cao Thief's plan, I think that our army only needs to gather troops in one place and abide by the city!" ”

Huo Yi didn't speak. But he naturally knew Guan Yu's thoughts, but in fact, with Guan Gong's arrogance, it was his original intention to keep Xiangyang. But how could his ambition rest on his laurels?

Deng Ai knelt in the column, but he didn't talk much, but the occasional flash of light in his eyes still made Huo Yi notice, Huo Yi, who wanted to like Deng Ai, wanted to know Deng Ai's thoughts, Huo Yi smiled and said: "Shizai, on weekdays, you have the most strange ideas, what do you think?" ”

Deng Ai's face turned red, although he was a few years older than Huo Yi, but in front of so many people, especially Guan Yu, he was even more prestigious, but Deng Ai's old problem was committed again, and he stuttered slightly: "Ai ...... Mugwort...... I thought that Xiangyang ......"

Guan Yu's brows furrowed, the most annoying thing in his life was a timid and obscene person, and when he saw Deng Ai stuttering, he was a little disliked.

Huo Yi saw all this in his eyes, but said with a smile: "Shi Zai is a little nervous when he sees General Guan?" It's all right, stand up and go to this topography map and tell me what you think. ”

Deng Ai glanced at Huo Yi gratefully, got up, and slowly walked to the side of the terrain map hanging in the middle of the hall, the terrain map was extremely huge, two people high, but under the guidance of Huo Yi, the most skilled cartographer in the scouts spent a lot of time in recent years, trekking through Jingzhou, and even did not hesitate to sneak into Cao Jun's territory to survey before drawing it.

Deng Ai took the wooden stick handed over by a scout, and looked at the terrain map carefully, Huo Yi's cartographic method Deng Ai was extremely clear, and he also knew very well what the subtle marks on the map represented. At this moment, this map is not a simple map for Deng Ai, as if the mountains, rivers and mountains are in his heart, his thoughts are suddenly cheerful, and some timid expressions are gone, and he immediately becomes magnificent, and even his voice is extremely smooth.

Deng Ai pointed to the place where Xiangyang was located and said loudly: "Ai thinks that the best defense is to attack!" The northerners are good at attacking but not good at defending, and the art of war is bound to be lost. Our army may gather in one place to block the enemy outside Xiangyang, but the last general thinks that our army is new to Xiangyang, and the people's hearts are not attached, and if we blindly defend it, it will inevitably make mistakes. ”

Shiren smiled and said, "How much does General Deng join the army? Such a strategy is a bit sloppy! Although the northerners are good at attacking but not good at defending, the Jingzhou army is also good at defending but not good at attacking. Inevitably, there are some partial generalizations, attacking the enemy's shortcomings with their own shortcomings, what can be helped? ”

At this moment, Shiren was escorting grain and grass from Nanjun, and by the way, he participated in the meeting in the military tent. As soon as his words came out, Deng Ai's remarks were interrupted, and Deng Ai's face suddenly turned red. Although he made Lu Xun deflated in Guiyang, Lu Xun's reputation is not obvious now, because the generals of Jingzhou did not take Deng Ai seriously, if it wasn't for Deng Ai, Huo Yi pushed him up to offer advice, he would have been driven down a long time ago.

Guan Yu looked at Deng Ai, his eyes lit up, Guan Yu was a person who knew the fighter very well, and he knew what the strategy in Deng Ai's mouth meant.

Guan Yu smiled: "You go on!" I was very interested. Deng Ai's eyes lit up again when he heard this, but his already red face was even redder, not because of shame, but because of the excitement of being recognized.

Guan Yu has always been unpretentious to Shiren, but this person is a little annoying, Shiren often uses shoddy food and grass when preparing Jingzhou's military rations and grass, and fills his own pockets. Guan Yu is looking at him for a long time and does not care about him, but it does not mean that Guan Yu will treat him well.

Shiren's face was unhappy, but he sat back stiffly, looking directly at Deng Ai, as if he was watching how Deng Ai made a fool of himself.

Deng Ai paused, raised the wooden stick in his hand, and pointed to an unbelievable place. Everyone looked at it, but it was the place where the Wenpin sailor was stationed, the mountain capital.

Deng Ailang said: "The northerners are not good at water, because if our army wants to defeat the northerners, we must destroy their water division first." All the people and horses hired by the Wenpin are the troops of Jingzhou, which are one of the few people in the north who are good at water warfare, if our army can break its army first, it will definitely be able to hold the initiative in this battle in their hands! ”

"Oh? You're talking light! What kind of person is Wen Ping, when Liu Jingzhou was in the past, he was already in charge of the Jingzhou naval army, how could he be easily attacked? And Cao Jun will have no water division, and it will only be one out of ten, how can he hold the initiative in the hands of our army? I'm afraid that General Deng fought too easily in Jiangdong, right? Lu Xun and other figures, how can they be hired one or two above? Shiren sneered.

As soon as these words came out, Huo Yi was also a little unsafe, Huo Yi's eyes swept over Shiren coldly, maybe he was too gentle, even this kind of clown, he was about to jump up and slap his subordinates in the face.

Shiren inexplicably felt a chill in his neck, but he looked at the place where his gaze came, but he was shocked, and all the generals in Jingnan at this moment looked at Shiren angrily. Maybe Shiren didn't know Lu Xun's ability, but the generals of Jingnan had heard Huo Yi praise his wisdom more than once, and the generals of Jingnan, who were convinced of Huo Yi's words, did not like Shiren's words at this moment
