One is not right,,

This is clearly unconscionable",

No,,No,,

The word "no" was straight in his mouth, and as the culprit who caused this series of incidents, Sima Yi frowned deeply and paced around the room.

Sima Lang, the elder brother who was sitting behind the desk reading a book, glanced up at his second brother, then shook his head, put down the book in his hand, and said with a puzzle and a sigh, "Zhongda, you go back and forth like this, how can you settle down and read the scrolls of the sages for your brother?" Hmm, "I have been seeing that God has not kept my mind since the beginning, what is wrong?" ”

When Sima Yi heard this, he knew that he had lost his temper. Walked to the table in the room, leaned over and brought himself a cup of tea, but looked at the cup of tea. Again, he was distracted.

Shaking his head, Sima Lang got up, walked to his brother Sima Yi's side, and asked strangely, "Zhongda, what happened to make you lose your temper so much?" ”

Hearing this, Sima Yi hesitated, drank all the tea in the cup in his hand, and then exhaled in a deep breath and said in a low voice, "Brother, do you know that a large amount of grain and grass has been shipped to the west recently?" ”

"That's it?" Sima Lang was dumbfounded, patted his brother Sima Yi on the shoulder, leaned over and poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip and said with a smile, "Brother knows a little about this matter, maybe it's the lack of food on the front line, hehe, then Jiang Shouyi's road is very important, how can there be a little mistake?" ”

"No, no, no, but I think it's extremely unreasonable!" Sima Yi frowned and said in a deep voice.

"How?" Obviously, Sima Lang didn't understand his brother's words.

"Brother doesn't know, now Cao Mengde is attacked by the princes of the world, and has suffered many military disasters, if it is me, I should act vigorously and resolutely to defeat the princes all the way to make the rest of the princes afraid, but then Jiang Zhe is now stopped and happy, and is passive to fight, isn't it strange?"

"What's the difference?" Sima Lang smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "Yesterday, I went to the General's Mansion and saw the lord looking at a document and laughing at the sky. I know that there is good news on the West Road, and sure enough, Jiang Zhe is indeed extraordinary" As for why you said why he stopped at peace now, this" According to his brother's opinion, Jiang Shouyi is wise and resourceful, but there are only more than 20,000 soldiers and horses under him, and Liu Jingsheng in Jingzhou has 100,000 soldiers on this trip, and the difference in strength is so great, I am afraid that even Jiang Shouyi will have a headache for it

When Sima Yi heard this, he shook his head and laughed. "The elder brother's words are very inappropriate, and he has never heard of a clever plan, which is worth 100,000 soldiers, according to the younger brother. I'm afraid it's not that simple! ”

"Huh?" Sima Yi was stunned. Puzzled, he asked, "Could it be that there is something strange about this?" After thinking about it, he laughed again, "Why should Zhong Da be worried about the matter of escorting grain, maybe Jiang Zhe saw that Liu Biao's army was huge, and he didn't want to fight hard, so he retreated and stubbornly defended?" ”

"Stick?" Sima Yi smiled dumbly, shook his head and said, "If it is said that Jiang Zhe lost the first battle, he was afraid of Liu Biao's military strength, so he retreated, so it is reasonable, but now, it is Jiang Zhe's first battle that defeated Liu Biao, and he did not enter the army at this moment when the morale of Liu Biao's corporal was demoralized, but retreated, hum!" If it is not for other plans, wouldn't it live up to its reputation for good strategy? ”

After Zhongda said this, this matter was really a little strange and slowly sat on the stool on the table and plate, Sima Lang frowned and said hesitantly. That Jiang Shouyi is proficient in the affairs of the soldiers, and he will definitely not miss the opportunity" In this way, there must be something more important" Tsk, Zhongda, what do you think of this matter? ”

"Grain! I still can't understand why Jiang Shouyi needs such a huge amount of food and, wait, it's just

"What's the matter?" Sima Lang raised his head and asked suspiciously.

"Could it be that Jiang Zhe saw through the plan in my heart!" Sima Yi's eyes changed, and he said coldly.

"Shih, Shih, Shi"

"That's the only way to explain it!" Sima Yi was quite annoyed with a pair of fists, paced a few times, and said coldly, "Perhaps, that Jiang Zhe stopped his troops, not because he was afraid of Liu Biao's huge army, I am afraid that in order to avoid being cut off by others, "Hmph!" ”

"What does Zhong Da mean" Sima Lang hesitated for a long time before he hesitated and said, "Jiang Shouyi knows that Ma Shoucheng is out of Xiliang?" ”

"I'm afraid I'm leaving" Sima Yi didn't know what to say now, so he sighed and sat opposite his brother.

"Hiss" Sima Lang took a deep breath, lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head and asked, "Zhong Da, how do you conclude that Jiang Zhe knows the details of this matter?" ”

"Grain!" Sima Yi tapped the table with his hand and said in a deep voice, "Previously, Jiang Zhe sent troops to the West Road, and Guo Fengxiao sent troops to the East Road, the two armies were sixty or seventy thousand horses, and the grain consumed was allocated from Xudu, and then, Cao Mengde saw that Xu Du was empty, for fear that Yuan Benchu would attack in the north, so he mobilized tens of thousands of elite soldiers from Chong, Henan, and even Luoyang to Yanjin, Baima, and Dongjun, and the grain and grass needed were also transferred from Xudu, so that Xudu's grain storage was not much!

Under such circumstances, Xun Wenruo and Xun Gongda immediately transferred most of the small amount of grain from the few stocks to the north, which can prove that these two people are in the same mind as Jiang Zhenai."

"Say so

"Jianbi Qingye, it seems that Jiang Shouyi is going to use this trick to deal with Ma Teng's Xiliang soldiers" Damn! How could he see through it? It's impossible! ”

"Jianbi Qingye" is extreme" As if he had never seen the depression on the face of his second brother Sima Yi, Sima Lang nodded and said, "From Xiliang to Sizhou." The road is far away, and only the use of cavalry can make people unprepared, and if you want to attack long distances, hehe, I'm afraid that the Xiliang cavalry under Ma Shoucheng will not have much dry food with them, if you can't get supplies in Sizhou, tsk, then there will be big trouble."

Sima Yi listened to it, and his face was unswerving. And faintly, a strong feeling welled up in his heart: as if everything was out of his control,

For the first time, a faint panic swelled up in Sima Yi's heart."

That Jiang Zhe, is it a ghost god?

"Zhongda? Zhongda? Seeing that Sima Yi's face was blue and white for a while, Sima Langnai persuaded him, "Zhong Damo thinks too much, maybe you and I are wrong, then Jiang Zhe didn't find out about it at all, maybe ...... Maybe it's something else? ”

"If that's the case, it's good" sighed heavily, and Sima Yi's eyes flickered.

On November 9 of the second year of Jian'an, Sun Ce of Jiangdong led 40,000 soldiers to Kou Guangling.

When Xuzhou guarded Chen Deng, he held the city, and the military division Guo Jiatun set up camp outside, and the two were horns for each other, and they repelled Sun Ce's soldiers and horses several times.

Sun Cekong has more than ten fierce generals, but Cao Jun can't hold it, no matter how Zhou Yu designs to lure the enemy, Chen Deng and Guo Jia just can't get it.

On November 11, the second year of Jian'an, Sun Ce was anxious in his heart, regardless of Zhou Yu's obstruction, and attacked the city by force, but during the period, he was accidentally injured by a first-class arrow, life and death were uncertain, and the morale of Cao's army was greatly boosted. Zhou Yu was anxious, so he had no choice but to retreat.

That night, Chen Dengyao saw that the lights of the Jiangdong Army camp were transparent, but the camp was noisy, so he concluded that Sun Ce was dead, so he hurriedly gathered the army in the city and wanted to succeed in the battle!

However, when he, Tao Ying and others entered the Jiangdong military camp, they saw that there were only a few hundreds of people guarding it, and Chen Deng immediately shouted that it was not good and hurriedly withdrew his troops.

On the way, there were a number of liver fire soldiers, but they watched the curtain in Chen Deng. This soldier and horse can only be regarded as a suspicious soldier!

Sure enough, when he led the army back to Guangling, he saw that the Jiangdong soldiers and horses were fighting with the Guangling garrison, and Chen Deng, the first general, could see clearly, who was not Sun Ce?

The face is hot. Chen Deng hurriedly led the army forward to help.

At this moment, Sun Ce was leading Jiangdong soldiers and horses to attack Guangling, and saw Chen Deng coming. Inevitably the enemy on the back of the abdomen. Only to drop the corpses of nearly a thousand cars and retreat gloomily.

However, even if Sun Ce retreated, the question in Chen Deng's heart was still not eliminated: there were only two or three thousand soldiers and horses in Guangling City, and the rest were all ** by himself, but Sun Ce couldn't capture Guangling, which was guarded by these two or three thousand men and horses?

Just when he was puzzled, Chen Deng suddenly saw that there was a person on the city wall calling his name, and when he looked up, he saw Guo Jia leaning on the city wall, looking at him with a smile.

Immediately, Chen Deng's face turned red.

It turned out that Guo Jia also heard that Sun Ce was accidentally injured by a stray arrow and his death was unknown, but he had another view on this matter: Who is Sun Ce? The head of the Koto Army! How can you be so ignorant? Even if Sun Ce was attacking the city with anger, he was also guarded by his henchmen and good generals. How can he be "accidentally wounded by a stray arrow, and he will not know whether he is alive or dead?"

Subsequently, Guo Jiabian heard that the sergeant below had come to report that there were soldiers and horses in Guangling leaving the city and heading south.

Guo Jia immediately concluded that Chen Deng wanted to take advantage of the leaderless Jiangdong army to take advantage of the opportunity to enter the army. Therefore, the soldiers and horses in the camp were immediately summoned, and if Guangling was a little troubled, troops would be sent to help.

Sure enough, less than half an hour. There was a sound of fighting in the direction of Guangling. Guo Jia immediately led the soldiers and horses out of the camp to help, so that the siege of Guangling was relieved.

Subsequently, just as Guo Jia wanted to laugh at Chen Dengzhong's timing of Zhou Yu, he suddenly heard bad news.

Sun Ce's general, Tai Shici, led 800 elite cavalry to attack the camp outside Guo Jiacheng at night, three in and three out, Cao's army suffered heavy losses, and the grain and grass were lost.

Seeing that the military advisor Guo Jia led the army to aid Guangling, Li Dian subconsciously thought that the Jiangdong soldiers and horses must be attacking Guangling, so he neglected his precautions, so that he was taken advantage of by Tai Shi Ci, and Li Dian himself was seriously injured when he was facing the enemy Tai Shi Ci.

It turned out that this was Zhou Yu's two-pronged plan, and he thought that he was not sure that he would use this strategy to conceal Chen Deng and Guo Jia at the same time, so he asked Sun Ce's army to attack Guangling, and sent Tai Shi Ci to lead 800 elite cavalry to lag behind half. At that time, he attacked the Cao army camp outside the city.

If it is Guangling, Zhou Yu is naturally very lucky; If the night attack on Guangling failed, it burned the grain and grass in Cao's camp outside the city. Zhou Yuzi was also extremely happy to see this; But if it doesn't work out of both,

Then Zhou Yu could only advise Sun Ce to withdraw from the army,,

In Guangling, he held Cao Jun for more than two months, but until now there is only the slightest progress, and Zhou Yu does not want his brother to fold all the elites of his subordinates here.

I can't see any chance of winning battles, Zhou Yu has never fought!

As a result, the war in Xuzhou fell into a stalemate for a while.

On November 15 of the second year of Jian'an, Yuan Shu raised an army of 50,000 and went straight to Jiangxia in Jingzhou.

Jiangxia Taishou Huang Zu heard that Yuan Shu was coming, and he immediately ordered 30,000 soldiers and horses in the city to fight with Yuan Shu's soldiers and horses in Xiakou.

The two armies fought for more than two hours, and Yuan Shu was defeated and retreated.

For this reason, Huang Zu was extremely proud, but just as he wanted to kill all the way to Shouchun in Yuan Shu's reign, he was shocked to hear the bad news.

Yuan Shu's generals Li Feng, Liang Wang and others went out of the Sanjiang Estuary and attacked Wuchang by land, and after capturing Wuchang, they hurried to Jiangxia.

Huang Zu heard about this. Panicked, he hurriedly withdrew his troops and hurried back to Jiangxia.

In this way, Yuan Shu took Xiakou without much effort, and the soldiers pointed at Jiangxia!

It turned out that Yang Hong, under Yuan Shu's account, admonished his master: Although Huang Zu has courage and no strategy, but Jiangxia is an important place under Liu Jingsheng's rule, and there are a lot of soldiers and armor, and furthermore, the terrain of Xiakou is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, if Huang Zu divides his troops to defend Xiakou, even if he doubles the number of men and horses, it will be difficult to capture it for a while. And once the compound mouth is broken, Jiangxia will be difficult to preserve!

Yuan Shu immediately agreed to the strategist Yang Hong's plan, captured Xiakou, and joined forces with Li Feng and Liang Wang in Jiangxia.

And Huang Zu within Jiangxia. Seeing that he had lost Xiakou, he panicked, and despite the fact that there were still tens of thousands of soldiers and horses under his command, he sent people to Xiangyang for help.

On November 17 of the second year of Jian'an, Ke Yue, who was playing a game of hide and seek with Yang Ding and other two hundred tigers and leopards, was shocked to hear that Yuan Shu of Yangzhou led the army to commit Jiangxia, and he was shocked in his heart.

At the same time, although Huang Zu said that the Internet was slow for his own use, he was not an extremely stupid person.

Knowing that the lonely city was difficult to defend, he immediately ordered the three generals under his tent, Su Fei, Chen Qi, and Nalong, to lead 5,000 soldiers and horses, and set up three battalions more than ten miles outside Jiangxia City, so as to become a horn.

In this regard, Yuan Shu also sent his subordinates Li Feng, Liang Wang, and Chen Ji to lead the army to attack the three battalions respectively, and in just two days, Li Feng and Liang Wang had good news, but Chen Ji was defeated by Huang Zu's general Su Fei all the way, and Chen Ji himself was also seriously injured and escaped back.

On the same day, Liu Biao, the assassin of the history, finally learned that Jiang Zhe had abandoned peace and left, and when he was suspicious in his heart, he immediately convened the subordinate generals to discuss.

"This Jiang Shouyi retreated a little strangely," Liu Biao's military advisor Shu Liang said hesitantly.

"Hmm!" Liu, who was sitting on the main seat, looked solemn, nodded slowly, and said hesitantly, "This Jiang Zhe is a little unpredictable, although he only has 20,000 or 30,000 soldiers and horses under his command, and we still have more than 90,000. If it is said that he retreated in fear, which is extremely unreasonable, and he has already retreated after the first victory, how can there be such a ridiculous thing in the world?

And when the people in the tent heard it. One after another, his Chinese hired hesitated, and said hesitantly, "Could it be that Xu has changed, and Cao Thief urgently ordered to recall this person?" ”

"Huh?" Liu Biao's eyes lit up, nodded and said happily, "But it's possible!" ”

"Xu has changed?" Cai Mao lowered her head and pondered for a while, then turned to Liu Biao and said, "Lord, if it is not to say that Xu has changed. But there is a change in Xuzhou: it is rumored that Sun Jian's son Sun Ce gathered a large army and invaded Xuzhou, and Cao Thief made his subordinates seek to go to Guo Jia to lead troops to block, perhaps Xuzhou was in an emergency, so Cao Thief recalled Jiang overnight "Jiang Zhe, Cao Thief's elite, most of them are in the hands of this person,"

"If that's the case. Very good! Very good". Liu Biao gritted his teeth and spit out, "Very good, two words, and then said with a sneer." "I really hope that the Cao thief will take care of one thing and lose the other, so that I can enter the Xu capital and take the head of this thief to honor my ancestors!"

With a chuckle, Jing Liang shook his head and said lightly, "The lord still doesn't want to draw conclusions so early, I will watch Jiang Zhe retreat." There are many suspicions, as for the matter of Xuzhou, hehe, Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao are under the command of Cao Thief. How can it be as useless as others say?" As he spoke, he also glanced at Cai Mao. Obviously, the other person in his mouth is referring to Cai Mao.

"Humph!" Cai Mao is not a stupid person, as if she heard the irony in her words, and immediately sneered, "How can hearsay be taken seriously? Isn't Liang Shabu Zirou, who is besieged in Anzhong, also known as a good strategist in Jingzhou? ”

"You!" Jing Liang's face turned red and he was angry, as a strategist

was besieged by Cao Jun and escaped from Anzhongbu, which was really the most humiliating thing in his world

"That's it!" Seeing that the two people who relied on each other the most under their hands were fighting each other verbally if in normal times, Liu Biao felt much more at ease, but at this time. He felt extremely harsh and glared at the two of them. Liu Biao shouted angrily, "At the moment of the great enemy, not only do you not work together, but you also want to fight the enemy?"

Fang Liang and Cai Mao glanced at each other, and immediately bowed down to Liu Biao and confessed. "What the lord said is very true, and please atone for your sins,"

"Okay, okay" Liu Biao waved his hand impatiently, then frowned and said, "Zirou, in your opinion, Jiang Zhe is outstanding in retreating." How much of it is true? ”

"What do I mean by that? Shabu Liang was obviously a little hesitant, hesitated for a while and said in a low voice, "This matter is very important, and it is not easy for Liang to talk about it, but the lord only needs to send a soldier and horse to catch up with Jiang Zhe's army and tell his subordinates the truth, and his subordinates can understand the reason!" ”

"Say it lightly" Cai Mao sneered, pouted and said, "Drive the infantry to pursue, the military advisor is really light, I am afraid that the Cao army has walked for more than three or five days on this road, and you are chasing after me!" ”

Fang Liang's face was stagnant. He forgot that the elite cavalry under Liu Biao had almost been lost in the pursuit of Anzhong,

"Okay, Dewa don't say a few words" Liu Biao reprimanded Cai Mao, then got up and frowned and said, "Jiang Zhe is a person, his actions are always unbelievable and elusive, if he wants to retreat, he will be asked to retreat!" We are waiting for the army to enter slowly, as long as we are cautious, and forgive him without any tricks."

"What the lord says is very true." All the generals in the tent clenched their fists and agreed.

At the same time, Xiliang Thorn Shi Ma Teng waved his army out of the stupid pass, crossed the plank road, and went to Sizhou Lushi.

However, this time the scene made Ma Teng a little dumbfounded"

It's really a hundred miles and uninhabited,"

As Sima Lang expected, Ma Teng took Jiang Zhe by surprise and attacked Jiang Zhe, so that for the speed of the march, when he left the Wuguan, the soldiers under his command only carried three days' rations with them, and they wanted to go to the Lu clan before replenishing.

However, when he arrived here, seeing that the dry food for the army was running out, but there was such a scene in front of him, Ma Teng was shocked in his heart.

Lu's huge county, how can it be empty?

Ma Teng immediately sent his cavalry to search for the village, looking for a place to supply, but the soldiers under his command came back to tell him. But it made Ma Teng's heart half cold.

Within a radius of more than ten miles, there is no place to replenish!

"How is that possible?" I saw that Ma Teng's face was full of suspicion, and he looked around and muttered, "Could it be that Jiang Zhe knows that I am coming?" Is it the strategy of clearing the wilderness, trying to make me return in vain? This "is impossible, even if the Wuguan guard sends someone to report the news that day, Jiang Zhe will not have enough time to dismiss the people here."

As he spoke, he seemed to think of something. The horsewhip pointed ahead, and said heavily, "The whole army is on the horse, but I don't believe it, the great land." We can't find a place to resupply! ”

"Yes!" Ma Teng's candidates, horse play and other generals immediately responded to the order and beckoned the soldiers under his command to come to the front of the horse

But having said that, Ma Teng was a little stunned in his heart, what if, "What if Jiang Zhe really did that badly?" Isn't that,

"All stopped!" After only less than two miles, Ma Teng stopped the whole army, turned his head and said to the candidates, horses and other generals, "My army is moving slowly, you wait for the soldiers and horses under your command to go around and inspect again, you should find rice and grain for the soldiers to eat!" ”

No one else can find it. I'll be able to find it later? The candidates, horse play and other generals had some embarrassment on their faces, and hesitated to clench their fists and respond, "The last general should do his best!" ”

Although he was a little dissatisfied with his subordinates' answers, Ma Teng also knew that they were telling the truth, and it was impossible to conjure food out of thin air, right?

Opening his mouth, he shook his head and sighed and said, "Just do your best, try your best to number" to go

"Yes!" The generals clenched their fists. Immediately led the headquarters of the elite horsemen, and went to the four sides.

It is estimated that after two hours, Guang watched the western sun gradually set on the horizon. But none of the generals under his command have ever returned, and Ma Teng's heart has become more and more impatient.

Suddenly, he heard the sound of horses' hooves. Hurriedly looking, seeing that it was the horse playing, he immediately shouted, "Horse play, how's it going?" ”

Ma Yu didn't say anything when he heard this, reined in the war horse, and shook his head at Ma Teng.

With a pause, Ma Teng's full expectation suddenly turned into disappointment, and he pinched the whip in his hand hatefully, his face pale.

Subsequently, most of the generals sent by Cheng Yin, Li Kan, Zhang Heng, Liang Xing, Yang Qiu and so on returned, but every time Ma Teng asked, the reply he received made him feel a little more depressed.

At this moment, only the candidate has not returned, but Ma Teng no longer has any expectations for him.

But most of the world is unexpected. The candidate returned, and with seven or eight wagons of grain,,

"Well done!" Ma Tengxi's face was flushed, he patted the candidate's shoulder vigorously, looked at the plump rice grain, and said with a smile. "I knew that Jiang Zhe would definitely not be able to dismiss all the people here,"

"The Lord is wrong." I saw that the candidate shook his head, clenched his fists and said, "These rice grains are not what the last general will take from the people's villages. The last general searched for one or twenty miles, and during this time he met no less than ten villages in Baixin, but the scene inside was much the same as this place."

"Huh? Is there such a thing? Ma Teng's face was full of shock, and he pointed to the more than ten carts of grain in amazement and said, "If it wasn't taken from the people." Where did you get it from? ”

When this matter was mentioned, a little strange smile appeared on the candidate's face, and he pointed to one place and said, "At that time, when the last general was looking for food in vain, and his heart was irritable, he suddenly saw a Cao army not far away. Dozens of truckloads of grain and grass were escorted slowly towards the east. The last general immediately killed the past, those Cao soldiers were very useless, did not dare to fight me, just poured oil on the grain cart and set it on fire and then scattered and fled, the last general immediately ordered to put out the fire, but he could only retrieve this grain and grass, and the rest was burned all."

"It's a pity" Ma Teng muttered, then glanced to the east, squinted his eyes and said slowly, "This army, I'm afraid it is the army that Jiang Zhe used to dismiss the people here" After speaking, he suddenly woke up, and immediately said to the candidate, "Quick, we have divided these grains, and we will rush to the front to find a place to replenish!" ”

"Yes!" The candidate was immediately called.

Tens of thousands of fine horsemen, divided into seven or eight wagons of rice grain, how is this enough?

Roughly calculated, it was only one per person, but even so, whether it was Ma Teng or the soldiers under his command, their hearts were no longer as impatient as Fang Cai.

However, they didn't know that Jia Xu, who was far away in Lushan, stared at the sky, and said with a smile, "If you want the fish to take the bait, how can you not have bait?" Hehe" tsk, Situ said" boiled frogs in warm water. Although the name is a bit vulgar, the connotation is really exquisite."

Since I was lost on the road of life yesterday, "after loading my heart at nine o'clock to one o'clock, four hours was only 1,500 words,,

The head is mushy,
