Chapter 58: A Tired Soldier's Plan

Seeing Liu Xie frowning and saying this, Lu Meng and Guan Ping also frowned and began to think about it.

Zhang Fei, the old man, patted his chest directly and said: "Your Majesty, there's no trouble, give me 3,000 soldiers and horses, and I'll take Pingdu County!" ”

Liu Xie rolled his eyes at this big black man, there is absolutely no problem for this guy to charge into battle, but it is really uneasy to let him be alone. When he saw Wei Yan next to him, who wanted to stop talking, Liu Xie secretly laughed, sure enough, this is also a guy surnamed anxious.

Lu Meng said at this time: "If there is no accident, Zhao Yunjun should be besieging Jiangzhou City at this time!" However, they returned to Pingdu, which shows that Guo Saijiu and they should have relieved the siege of Jiangzhou and pursued them down. To deal with the defeated army, if it is in the field, with our military strength, it is not difficult to end this war in one battle. But they have entered Pingdu, so we must be ready for a long battle! ”

Guan Ping also nodded, and continued: "If we have siege equipment, we can be angry, and before they can gain a firm foothold, we can give them a surprise, but we don't have any siege equipment in our hands now, so we can only look at the city and sigh!" ”

"Your Majesty, the scout is here to report that there is news of General Gan!" Zhou Cang walked over at this time and hugged his fists.

Liu Xie signaled, Zhou Cang beckoned into the distance, and a naval scout ran towards Liu Xie, kneeling on one knee, "Under the command of Captain Hengjiang, Zhang Jiang, a member of the third scout team, knock on Your Majesty, long live my emperor!" Seeing Liu Xie, the young emperor, Zhang Jiang was a little excited.

Liu Xie nodded and said, "Where is General Gan at this time?" How many people are there? ”

"Back to Your Majesty, there are more than 800 people under the command of General Gan, who had been ordered by Guo Junshi to go up the river, and now there are 300 people who have infiltrated Pingdu County with General Gan one step earlier than Zhao Yunjun, ready to wait for the opportunity to seize control of the city gate, cooperate with Guo Junshi, and attack Pingdu County inside and outside......"

Hearing the news, Liu Xie couldn't help but stroke his palms and laughed, "What a Gan Xingba, a good Guo Fengxiao, I have already thought of countermeasures, but I am worried in vain!" Okay, you go down and rest first! Yuanfu sent scouts again to get in touch with Fengxiao, and then, won Pingdu in one fell swoop! ”

"Whoa!"

……

After a while, Liu Xie and others converged with Guo Jia, Tai Shici, and Liu Bei, and Liu Xie, Liu Xie finally understood why Zhao Wei obviously had 20,000 or 30,000 soldiers and horses, but he was still beaten like his grandson, and he didn't dare to be arrogant in Pingdu County. It turned out that along the way, I was scared of being killed by Guo Jia and them!

Zhao Wei designed an ambush on the road Tai Shici's idea, which is absolutely right. Because of Tai Shi Ci and Chen Dao, Liao Hua and they had to hunt him down, as long as they chased and killed him, then they would definitely fall into the ambush. But Guo Jia told Tai Shici that there was no need to send scouts to investigate, anyway, they would all be ambushed, and they only needed to divide their soldiers and horses into multiple echelons to advance, so it didn't matter if the vanguard troops were ambushed, just make up for the later.

This desperate way is the same as Liu Xie's method of dealing with Zhao Lie. However, the reason why Liu Xie was able to think of this method was based on the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, not by himself.

Tai Shi Ci was indeed tricked, but Liao Hua and Chen Zhi, who followed behind him, were not vegetarians, 4,000 centaurs, and directly killed the 5,000 centaurs who were in ambush and fled for their lives with a scream. However, in this battle, Tai Shici and their losses were also quite large, 4,000 men and horses, and directly lost nearly 1,000.

The result can be imagined, as soon as Zhao Wei got the news, he began to flee for his life. But Tai Shici and they clenched on, and Guo Jia led people to join the pursuit.

It is worth mentioning that Liu Bei Liu ran away from this guy, I don't know what medicine he took wrong, the whole person became excited and brave, with 3,000 foot soldiers, he suddenly entered the center of Zhao Yunjun's army, and cut off Zhao Yunjun's Daxu with a sword, making Zhao Yunjun think that their leader Zhao Yun was killed.

The result can be imagined, Zhao Wei's army was defeated again, surrendered and fled, and Zhao Wei himself, only led 3,000 remnants of the army, was chased and killed by Liaohua's cavalry of less than 1,000, all the way from Tongxian to Pingdu County, and only after seeing Zhao Wei enter Pingdu, he stopped the pursuit.

And Liao Hua was followed by Tai Shi Ci, Tai Shi Ci's shooting battalion, there were not many archers, but there were about one-third, followed by Liu Bei, and then Chen Zhi and Guo Jia. Because Chen Zhi and Guo Jia are still in charge of surrendering.

In this way, Liu Xie's soldiers and horses, excluding those who died, still had more than 12,000, and in Pingdu County, plus the remnants of Zhao Wei's army, there were less than 4,000 defenders. Of course, of the 12,000 soldiers and horses, many people were assigned to guard those soldiers, and some were injured, and only more than 7,000 people could really participate in the battle.

But even if it is these 7,000 people, it is enough to deal with Zhao Wei, who is full of heart and gall.

After understanding the situation, Liu Xie smiled at everyone: "Thank you for your hard work!" ”

The generals didn't even dare to say anything, they all said that they were worried about His Majesty, and they should be!

Liu Xie smiled, looked at Liu Bei, and said, "Liu Aiqing's demeanor is really not diminished back then!" I will not forget this achievement! ”

"This is a matter of Weichen's responsibility, Your Majesty has won the prize!" Liu Bei smiled weakly, then lowered his eyebrows, and did not dare to look directly at Liu Xie's gaze. Because he still remembered how Liu Xie had guarded against him before, from now on, he didn't dare to underestimate this young emperor anymore.

After praising the generals one after another, Liu Xiecai looked at Guo Jia, "Fengxiao, next, do you have a plan?" ”

Guo Jia put away the folding fan, waved it at Liu Xie, and said: "Back to Your Majesty, Zhao Wei is now frightened, and Your Majesty has cut off his retreat, leaving only Pingdu for him, at this time it may not be a good thing to attack, we should put pressure on it and let it collapse on its own!" ”

Liu Xie nodded, understanding Guo Jia's worries, because attacking at this time would only make Zhao Wei burn the jade and fight to the death. This is not a good thing for the imperial army, which is in a good situation and has strong morale.

"Is there a clever plan?"

"There is no clever plan, there is one!" Guo Jia chuckled, "Your Majesty can make people build siege equipment on the one hand, and on the other hand, make people tired of the army, Jia believes that within three days, the battle of Pingdu can be decided!" ”

Liu Xie nodded, and asked people to start preparing siege equipment, it is impossible for a big man like Jing Lan, and it is not easy to rush the car, but there is no problem with the ladder. In fact, they only need a part of the ladder, and they still have the killer feature of Gan Ning!

In the evening, Lixie accepted Guo Jia's suggestion and asked people to go down to Pingdu City to beat gongs and drums, and to use the strategy of exhausting the soldiers.

Zhao Yunjun was beaten by Liu Xie and them before, and he was already a soldier, and he didn't dare to sleep all night.

And during the day, Liu Xie naturally would not give up this tired plan, and still repeated the plan, until Zhao Wei in the city was so angry that he vomited three liters of blood, and the three souls were ownerless.

At this noon, Guan Yu and Xu Chu appeared.

Seeing that Guan Yu only appeared with these people, Liu Xie's brows furrowed slightly, then relaxed, and then frowned.

"General Guan, why did you leave your post without permission? Do you know the importance of fish recovery? Liu Xie ignored Xu Chu and asked Guan Yu.

Guan Yu was stunned, and was secretly shocked by Liu Xie's shrewdness, but he said: "Back to Your Majesty, this Brother Xu said that he had something to find His Majesty, but the last general was not at ease, Brother Xu's bravery, not the last general, the last general was worried that His Majesty would make a mistake, so Deng Junshi and General Luo guarded Yufu, and the last general personally brought him here!" ”

Liu Xie glared at Guan Yu and said, "I'll talk about you later." The generals and military advisors stay, and the others, step back first! ”

"Whoa!" Liu Bei bowed down with the civilian officials of the army and silently withdrew from the camp.

Although Liu Bei killed very bravely this time, which was somewhat unexpected by Liu Xie, it was better to let Liu Bei participate less in the matter of marching and fighting.

In this way, the only people left in the camp were Guo Jia, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Tai Shici, Zhou Cang, Chen Dao, Liao Hua, Gong Zhi, Xi You, as well as Lu Meng and Guan Ping, by the way, there was also Wei Yan.

Liu Xie looked at Xu Chu, "Tiger, why are you here, tell me!" ”
