Chapter 330: Jia Xu's poisonous plan
As soon as the conversation changed, he turned around and talked about Zhao Fei again. Due to a battle with Zhang Xiu's general Hu Che'er, Zhao Fei's overall plan had to be put on hold. Originally, he wanted to surprise the soldiers to the city, but according to the situation, Zhang Xiu knew his whereabouts well, otherwise how could he send troops to encircle and suppress him.
mentioned Zhang Xiu's encirclement and suppression, Zhao Fei couldn't help but shed a cold sweat. If it weren't for the alertness of the soldiers of Bai Ma Yicong under Zhao Yun, I am afraid that his thousands of soldiers would be reported dumplings by Zhang Xiu's 20,000 army.
However, all disadvantages must be beneficial, although his whereabouts were known by Zhang Xiu, and there were not many soldiers and horses under his command, so Zhang Xiu's department would despise him very much. In addition, Jia Xu, who made Zhao Fei the most fearful, was gone, so Zhao Fei did what he planned, pretended to show weakness, lured Zhang Xiu's soldiers to the ambush location chosen by Zhao Fei, and then attacked Zhang Xiu's 20,000 troops.
Because Zhao Fei's command was all the elite of the Cao army, although there were few people, they relied on the geographical advantage and successfully eliminated Zhang Xiu's 20,000 troops. Zhao Fei was quite satisfied with this, but because his strategic intentions had been demonstrated, and Zhao Fei had collected countless prisoners, Zhao Fei did not dare to act rashly. With so many captives, it will affect it, just carrying it is helpless enough, not to mention fighting with so many captives, how can Zhao Fei fight with peace of mind.
Therefore, Zhao Fei could only set up camp and wait for the arrival of Cao's army. However, although Zhao Fei was lucky to win, he didn't dare to be careless at all, because he knew that it wouldn't be long before Jia Xu arrived, and when Jia Xu really led his troops to come, he had to deal with it carefully.
When he came to the Three Kingdoms era, he had indeed experienced a lot of wars, but Zhao Fei had never fought against the famous strategists in the Three Kingdoms. Although the top strategist Zhao Fei knew a lot, he had never fought against him. Although Zhao Fei, Guo Jia and others often deduce on the sand table, the sand table is a sand table after all, and the real battlefield is often more dangerous than the sand table.
In the sand table, he can not care about gains and losses, but in reality, it is absolutely impossible for Zhao Fei not to care about gains and losses. You must know that the white horse and the wolves are all elite people, and the loss of one will make Zhao Fei's heart ache. Not only the white horse and the wolves, but even ordinary soldiers, if the loss is too great, Zhao Fei will also be heartbroken. Moreover, this time Zhao Fei needs to face a poisoner who will do whatever it takes to achieve his goal, how can Zhao Fei not be frightened.
For the poisoner, Zhao Fei can be said to have no confidence at all. After setting up camp, Zhao Fei secretly prayed in his heart, praying that this time Zhang Xiu could surrender under Jia Xu's advice according to the direction of history. And the heavens seemed to have really heard Zhao Fei's prayers, and since Zhao Fei set up camp, the sky began to rain drippingly. At first, it was only a light rain, but as time went on, the rain did not stop, but intensified.
Faced with this result, Zhao Fei was somewhat happy in his heart. Although the promise would affect the speed of the march, the effect was mutual, and the heavy rain not only hindered Cao's army, but also affected Zhang Xiu. Therefore, the rain also made Zhao Fei very happy.
However, it rained for several days in a row, but Zhao Fei's good mood was low to the trough, from the most open light rain to the current heavy rain, the rain has been falling for half a month, but there is no sign of stopping. And, as time went on, the rain seemed to get more intense.
Affected by the heavy rain, Cao's army had to stop and set up camp to stop the torrential rain.
"Presumably, Zhang Xiu's army was also affected by the torrential rain." Inside the tent, Zhao Fei listened to the sound of the rain beating the tent outside the tent, and couldn't help muttering to himself.
Zhao Fei doesn't like rainy days, because it can make people's mood worse, and Zhao Fei is in this mood at this time. The continuous rain made Zhao Fei irritable, in addition to being irritable, Zhao Fei also felt a faint sense of uneasiness in his heart, he didn't know where this uneasiness came from, but Zhao Fei's heart was difficult to stabilize, and an ominous feeling had been haunting his heart.
In this regard, Zhao Fei couldn't help but be a little worried, you must know that before the tragedy in Zhaojia Village, Zhao Fei also had this uneasiness. Therefore, Zhao Fei was very careful about this, but even though Zhao Fei was very careful, there were some things he didn't know.
As we all know, military camps should be built in places with sufficient water sources, so the military camps established by Zhao Fei are no exception. Water source is the foundation of life, so Zhao Fei specially chose a station close to the river.
Zhao Fei's choice was not bad, but he didn't think that the rainstorms would continue one after another. At first, Zhao Fei's choice was not wrong, but with the continuous rainstorm, Zhao Fei's choice was wrong. Because in the upper reaches of the river, a team of soldiers in leather armor are guarding something, and Jia Xu, who Zhao Fei doesn't want to see the most, is also inspecting something in a robe.
If Zhao Fei and Zhao Fei were to say it again, they would definitely be shocked. Because Jia Xu built a dam upstream and cut off the flow of water, and the reason for cutting off the flow of water is obvious, that is, to destroy the dam and flood Cao Jun after the actual maturity.
The rain for more than ten days is very obvious, and the dam that Jia Xu sent people to supervise has accumulated a lot of rainwater. Jia Xu nodded with satisfaction, obviously he was very satisfied with the situation in front of him. After instructing the soldiers who were guarding here a few words, Jia Xu turned around and left.
A few more days passed, but the rain showed no signs of stopping. However, the uneasiness in Zhao Fei's heart became more and more intense, for this reason, Zhao Fei specially instructed Zhao Yun to let him lead the soldiers of the White Horse Righteous Servants to brave the heavy rain to investigate day and night. However, this approach still did not reassure Zhao Fei.
On this day, Zhao Fei couldn't bear the uneasiness in his heart anymore, and then he took Dian Wei and a few guards out of the camp together. In the past few days, Zhao Fei has done a lot of such things, but Zhao Fei still didn't let himself feel at ease.
After inspecting the barracks, Zhao Fei took Dian Wei and a few guards out of the camp tent. Although Zhao Fei has also gone out to inspect in the past few days, he has indeed not had any accidents.
"Pengju, the rain is so heavy, presumably even if there is an enemy army, it will not attack at this time." Dian Wei stood behind Zhao Fei and said with a little worry, the rain outside was so heavy that Dian Wei couldn't help but say with a little worry.
"It's okay, I'll just do some patrols." Feeling that Dian Wei really cared about him, Zhao Fei was also very relieved in his heart. However, even if Zhao Fei is allowed to return to the camp now, Zhao Fei will not be at peace in his heart.
Saying that, Zhao Fei continued to walk outside, while Dian Wei and several guards followed behind Zhao Fei inch by inch. Not long after walking, Zhao Fei came to the river, Zhao Fei didn't know how to get to the river, but it was like there was a providence in the dark, Zhao Fei just walked to the river.
Standing by the river, Zhao Fei was a little stunned. Suddenly, Zhao Fei's heart moved, as if he had thought of something in his heart, but he was a little confused. In this regard, Zhao Fei couldn't help frowning, standing by the river and not moving.
Dian Wei was a little worried on the side, and then Dian Wei said: "Pengju is almost the same, you go back to the tent to rest for a while." ”
Zhao Fei didn't seem to hear Dian Wei's words, and still stood by the river in a daze, thinking. Dian Wei on the side was even more worried, so he kept comforting Zhao Fei by his side. But seeing Zhao Fei standing by the river like a log, he didn't hear Dian Wei's advice at all.
And seeing that Zhao Fei kept staring at the river, Dian Wei couldn't help but stare at the river, and then Dian Wei couldn't help but say innocently: "Pengju, you always stare at the river, could it be that there is something wrong with this river?" ”
Hearing Dian Wei's words, Zhao Fei suddenly had an idea. Dian Wei is right, there is a problem with the water in this river. Then, Zhao Fei was suddenly in a hurry, and hurriedly said to Dian Wei beside him: "Big brother, go and find Brother Yun, I have something important to discuss with Brother Yun." Also, inform the whole army to quickly withdraw the camp and prepare to leave here. ”
Zhao Fei looked very anxious, and Dian Wei was also a little stunned when he saw Zhao Fei's expression for the first time. You must know that since Dian Wei knew Zhao Fei, it was the first time that Zhao Fei showed such a hurry, and Dian Wei was stunned. Therefore, Dian Wei hurriedly ran towards the camp.
After a while, Zhao Yun hurriedly ran over and came to Zhao Fei's side, Zhao Yun opened his mouth and asked, "Pengju, what happened, I heard Dian Wei say, you look for me." Seeing Dian Wei's expression, he was very anxious, and he didn't know what was going on? ”
Hearing Zhao Yun's question, Zhao Fei pointed to the river in front of him and asked, "Brother Yun, do you think there is anything different in front of you?" ”
Zhao Yun glanced at Zhao Fei's point, but he didn't know what Zhao Fei meant. Then Zhao Yun shook his head and said, "Pengju, since you are in a hurry, then don't be playing dumb riddles." ”
Zhao Fei was also stunned when he heard this, and then secretly blamed himself, and then Zhao Fei said: "It's been raining for nearly a month, but the river hasn't risen much, isn't it very strange?" ”
After listening to Zhao Fei's words, Zhao Yun suddenly realized, and then Zhao Yun opened his mouth and said: "According to Pengju's meaning, Zhang Xiu plans to attack by water?" ”
Zhao Fei nodded heavily, and then Zhao Fei said: "I want Brother Yun to take the soldiers of the White Horse Righteous Servant to the upstream to investigate, although I am not sure, but it is estimated that this matter is not far from ten." ”
"In that case, I'll take someone to see it." Zhao Yun nodded, and then returned to the barracks to prepare to take people to investigate. And Zhao Fei also returned to the barracks with Zhao Yunhui, and at this time, the entire barracks was in a hurry.
Because of Zhao Fei's decision from Dian Wei, although everyone was a little confused, and it was still raining heavily in the sky, all the soldiers did not dare to go against Zhao Fei's feelings, and they were ready to evacuate this place.
Seeing the appearance of the entire military camp, Zhao Fei finally nodded with satisfaction. But at this time, he still didn't dare to relax, he knew that the river not far away was like a sharp sword on his neck, and he didn't know when it would hit his head, which made Zhao Fei worried.
After a while, Zhao Yun led the soldiers of Baima Yicong to quickly go upstream of the river, and the entire military camp was also in Zhao Fei's high-pressure state, so that the soldiers of the whole battalion quickly packed up the entire camp tent, and then Zhao Fei led the soldiers to begin to retreat to the rear.
