Chapter 61: The Enemy on the Belly and Back

Since he secretly formed an alliance with Guo Jia and agreed to attack Jingzhou together, Yuan Shu paid attention to Guo Jia's movements in Yizhou every time in Nanyang, and the grain and grass had been sent in batches, and it was not intercepted by Liu Biao, but Guo Jia did not send troops when he got the grain and grass, Yuan Shu asked three questions, and every time his subordinates returned to him, his heart was cold.

"What did Guo Jia say!"

In the Taishou Mansion, Yuan Shu overturned the low table in front of him, his face was hideous, and he looked at Yang Hong under the hall.

Yang Hong, who wiped the sweat on his head, truthfully recounted Guo Jia's words.

"Guo Jia said that he took the lord and the horse as the leader, and as long as the lord raised troops to attack Xiangyang, he would definitely wave his army east to respond to the lord."

Yuan Shu was furious, panting heavily, laughing angrily, kneeling down again, covering his forehead and laughing loudly.

Listening to Yuan Shu's wild sneer, most of the people in the hall lowered their heads, but Sun Jian, the head of the generals, stood proudly, and Huang Gai, the general of the descendant line behind him, also held their heads high.

"Guo Jia, Guo Jia, Guo Jia, very good, very good, isn't it just 500,000 stone grain and grass, enough for you to enjoy on Huangquan Road."

After whispering to himself, Yuan Shu, who had gloomy eyes, suddenly raised his head and shouted, "Sun Jian! ”

Sun Jian came out of the ranks with his fists clenched and did not say a word.

"I'll give you 70,000 soldiers and horses, can you capture Jingzhou for me?"

Yuan Shu had nearly 100,000 troops at this time, and the sharpest general under his command was Sun Jian.

Sun Jian, who was wearing majestic armor and a silver-white cloak on his shoulders, clenched his fists and said calmly: "Within a month, I will definitely win Jingxiang." ”

"Good! I have Sun Wentai, why not be afraid of the world! Wentai, as long as you capture Jingzhou, I will go to the court to protect you as the assassin of Yangzhou. Although Yuan Shu was furious, he still had his senses, and Sun Jian went to capture Jingzhou, and he was sure of nine out of ten.

Is there a military general under Liu Biao who can match Sun Jian?

Yuan Shu treated Sun Jian very well, not only did not force Sun Jian to move his family to his place, but even gave Sun Jian a lot of power and took care of him in many ways, even rumored that Sun Jian got the jade seal of the country in Luoyang, Yuan Shu never asked Sun Jian about it.

The trust in Sun Jian stems from the understanding of Sun Jian, Yuan Shu knows that Sun Jian has ambitions, but his ambition is not the world, at best he is just a very human minister, making the family prominent, glorifying the ancestors, the Sun family is insignificant when it is in Wu County, Sun Jian just wants to work hard to create a family business that makes those who look down on his Sun family feel awe-inspired, and these, Yuan Shu can give him, Sun Jian doesn't care about the history of the assassin in Yuzhou at all, but he wants the position of the history of the assassin in Yangzhou, because in that way, Sun Jian can justifiably press on the head of the Yangzhou Shi clan, Whether it is the noble clan of Wu County or Huiji County, who would dare to despise Sun Jian?

When Wenwu retreated, the anger in Yuan Shu's chest gradually subsided, and he closed his eyes and said softly to himself: "Guo Jia, after I take Jingzhou, even if you kneel and beg me, I will crush your bones and scatter ashes." ”

…… Liu Biao, who was in Xiangyang, was stable for a few days, and once again fell into the crisis of war.

He couldn't know Guo Jia's movements in Yizhou in time, but he must be well-informed about the movements of Yuan Shu's soldiers and horses in Nanyang.

Recently, Yuan Shu began to mobilize troops and horses, gather grain and grass, and must be fighting again, Liu Biaogang's nerves tightened again after a few days of relaxation.

"Yuan Shu is here to fight Jingzhou?" Liu Biao was stunned, in fact, he was lucky, and he always felt that he defeated the invincible Guo Jia last year, which can be regarded as Liwei.

When Yuan Shu, who had already taken Yuzhou and most of Yangzhou, mobilized his troops and horses, he thought that if he made a choice between him and Tao Qian and Liu Dai, Yuan Shu would definitely not choose him, but he didn't expect that Yuan Shu would really come to attack Jingzhou.

After calming down, Liu Biao began to think about countermeasures, he is also a person who has experienced a big scene, and he has not been scared to the point that the six gods have no master.

But Yuan Shu has Sun Jian, a tiger general, and it is not easy to deal with.

Who is Sun Jian? He became famous at a young age and made many military exploits, whether it was the suppression of the rebellion in Huiji County for the imperial court when he was young, or the Yellow Turban Rebellion that later galloped thousands of miles to aid Luoyang, as well as his suppression of rebellions in Jingzhou, and the glorious achievements of the Eastern Army in defeating Lu Bu when they attacked Dong are vivid, and Sun Jian is even more powerful than Lu Bu in terms of the prestige of military generals.

Among the people, Lu Bu is praise Lu Bu's bravery, Sun Jian can defeat Lu Bu That is the battle between the two armies, not a one-man fight, Sun Jian will definitely not defeat Lu Bu by force, but the two armies are facing each other, and Sun Jian's way of using troops will definitely be better than Lu Bu.

Liu Biao, who was pacing back and forth in the mansion, was still thinking about how to retreat from the enemy, and his three strategists, Kuai Yue Kuai Liang and Yi Yuan, brought a piece of news that made him worse with a calm face.

"Guo Jia is also coming to attack Jingzhou?" Liu's surface is bloodless.

If it was just Yuan Shu, or just Guo Jia, he would have the confidence to retreat from the enemy, at least five points of certainty, but if these two evil wolves came to attack Jingzhou together, he had no chance of holding Jingzhou at all.

It doesn't matter whether Guo Jia is here to take revenge or take advantage of the fire to rob, the key is that Jingzhou can't suffer from the enemy on its back, otherwise it will be defeated.

"Guo Jia seems to be extremely cautious this time, dividing the army into seven routes, and each march is less than 100 miles, it is also possible to play tricks." After getting the information, the Iraqi felt that it was very unreasonable, if it was to form a siege in all directions and divide the troops into several roads, it would make sense, but only from one side was so cautious, dividing the troops into two roads, three roads, echoing each other, or into horns or into a tripod, all said in the past, but the seven-way army is inevitably a little exaggerated, but there are too many troops, and the whole is divided into zero, and the power is greatly reduced.

Kuai Liang did not agree with this view, he said with a solemn expression: "Guo Jia's seven-way army, inferred from the names on the armies of all roads, is his command Xu Chu, Dian Wei, Zhou Tai, Zhang Yan, Gao Shun, and an unknown general surnamed Xiao and Guo Jia himself led the way, Gan Ning's Jinfan Army must stay in Chengdu." This seven-way army is a staggered combination of fiction and reality, and the odd and strange are combined, and the march is slow, precisely because Guo Jia learned the lesson of the last defeat in Jingzhou, and I am afraid that there is another important reason for Guo Jia's scruples. ”

Kuai Liang's analysis made Liu Biao deeply convinced, Guo Jia is not the kind of person who will fall twice in a pit, the last time he attacked lightly, he almost died in Jiuquan, this time he must be cautious in sending troops, and he will be in the camp step by step from the beginning.

"Oh? What is Guo Jia's scruples? Liu Biao hurriedly asked Kuai Liang.

Kuai Liang hesitated for a moment, but still truthfully confided what he was thinking.

Guo Jia was worried that Yuan Shu would attack Yizhou after taking Jingzhou, so he couldn't let Yuan Shu capture Jingzhou, but he couldn't fight with the main bus before Yuan Shu, Jingzhou was definitely his dream, but he was worried that if he lost both with the lord, Yuan Shu would not only take Jingzhou, but also take advantage of the situation to take Yizhou. Guo Jia deliberately slowed down the speed of the march, in addition to being cautious, he was waiting for Yuan Shu and the lord to start a battle first. ”

Liu Biao deeply agreed with Kuai Liang's analysis, but he was very pessimistic, and said bitterly: "Yuan Shu is now in full swing, he will definitely not stop his army, and he will wave his army south, Guo Jia will not act rashly, and when I fight with Yuan Shu to the point that it is inseparable, Guo Jia will make trouble again, so ......"

Kuai Yue, who had been silent, volunteered and said: "Lord, the battle of Yuan Shu needs to be resolved quickly, and Guo Jia should not be given a chance to delay Guo Jia's army for a while." ”

Liu Biao frowned and asked, "How many soldiers and horses does Xenomorph need?" ”

Kuai Yue shook his head slightly, and said lightly: "It's enough for the next person." ”

Liu Biao, who was shocked, asked rhetorically: "Why are you delaying Guo Jia's army?" ”

"Three-inch meat tongue."

In fact, Guo Jia's seven-way army is only Zhou Tai all the way, but it is just a suspicious strategy, more empty camps, more stove fires, so that the soldiers change shifts more diligently, holding different surnames in the border of Yizhou and Jingzhou, without careful investigation, it will be difficult to find out how many soldiers and horses there are in this seven-way army.

Sitting in the camp and reading the book of soldiers calmly, Zhou Tai was not surprised when he heard his subordinates report that someone in Jingzhou asked to see him, and asked his subordinates to invite them into the account.

Kuai Yue frowned slightly after stepping into the account, because he saw that the person sitting on the main seat was Zhou Tai, and Zhou Tai, who suffered a crushing defeat in Jingzhou with Guo Jia, naturally met Kuai Yue, and his memory was not deep and he would definitely not forget it easily.

"General Zhou, where is your father-in-law?"

There is a Guo character on the soldiers and horses on this road, Kuai Yue thought that he would meet Guo Jia, but he didn't expect to see Zhou Tai.

Throwing the bamboo slips of the military book on the low table, Zhou Tai said casually: "I don't know, but my lord must be in one of the armies." ”

The truth is true, Kuai Yue is completely confused about whether Guo Jia's seven-way army is true or false, and it takes time to find out the truth and reality, but it is what Jingzhou lacks.

Zhou Tai, who personally served tea, entertained Kuai Yue with a smile, tepid, as if Kuai Yue was just an ordinary person, and it didn't matter whether he existed or not.

Kuai Yue put down the cup after taking a sip of tea, and asked Zhou Tai, "General Zhou, can you invite your lord to meet me?" ”

Zhou Tai asked, "Do you have to see my father-in-law?" What matters so much? ”

Of course, it's a matter of life and death!

Kuai Yue felt that Zhou Tai was pretending to be confused, and now he was really bullying, and even his attitude was a little arrogant and rude, but Feng Shui took turns, Yuan Shu was about to attack Jingzhou, Guo Jia came to join in the fun, Liu Biao was in danger, and Kuai Yue couldn't hold his breath.

"General Zhou, time is pressing, let's get straight to the point, does your lord have to disregard morality and attack Jingzhou?"

Facing Kuai Yue, who was aggressive, Zhou Tai smiled lightly: "My lord said that when Yuan Taishou and Liu Yuanjun were about to divide the victory, we would send troops to reap the benefits. If the winner is indistinguishable, then sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. ”

It's really not a bit of affection, it's straightforward enough!

Kuai Yue frowned and asked, "Do you have to attack?" ”

Zhou Tai also asked rhetorically: "If you change Liu Yuanjun, will you miss the opportunity in front of you?" ”

Kuai Yue sneered: "Yizhou has rebelled countless times in the past year, is it true that your lord is really confident that he will be able to sit in peace and secure the two major states in the world after taking Jingzhou?" ”

"Try it."
