Chapter 688: An Unexpected Victory

When the two of them arrived at the General's Mansion, it was already sunset.

It's not that Chen Zhi deliberately delayed, after Wang Mo sent out the invitation, Chen Zhi only thought about it for a moment and gave a positive reply. The reason why I came late was because the previous long conversation took a lot of time, and the time spent on the road was even more than that.

There's no way, Gaotang City is too big.

If you consider the area covered by the city alone, it is even larger than Chang'an. Although the latter is a symbol of the strongest era of the Han Dynasty, it is a city after all, and it is completely incomparable with the bazaar-like construction method of the Gaotang Dynasty.

As soon as they entered the door, the two of them unexpectedly felt an extremely dignified aura, not only Chen Zhi was surprised, but even Wang Mo was a little inexplicable: "Wasn't it okay yesterday?" What's going on? It won't be ......"

He startled himself and hurriedly grabbed one of the guards for questioning.

"It's not clear what happened exactly, but a messenger came around noon, and then the lord called a military council, and he seemed to be in a hurry, so he ......"

Chen Zhi didn't deliberately stand closer, but pulled a few steps to the side, and the guard's voice was very low, he only heard a few words intermittently, and he had no way of knowing what was going on. But he carefully observed the other party's expression, and found that the guard's face was more puzzled than anxious, and the heart that had just been brought up was put back again.

It shouldn't be that you have lost the battle, so don't worry too much......

Immediately, Chen Zhi wondered again, obviously a few hours ago, he was still a captive, why was he worried about the new owner now? Isn't he really a loyal and righteous person, and he doesn't care about the change of lord?

"It's all your own family, what are you doing so cautiously, uncle?"

Wang Mo didn't know what Chen Zhi was thinking, he got the news from the guards, and he was also a little relieved, seeing that Chen Zhi deliberately stood away. couldn't help laughing: "You'll know later, under the command of the lord, the really confidential military information will only let the people involved know, and other information is open on the basis of the foundation, and the difference is nothing more than timeliness." ”

Chen Zhidaqi asked: "In this way, aren't you afraid that the intelligence will be spied on by the enemy and used by it?" ”

Wang Mo replied with a smile: "As long as someone investigates with heart." Some information can't be kept secret, so it's better to keep it open and let everyone discuss and study it than let them spy on it. ”

"That's right, but isn't this cheaper for the enemy?" Chen Zhi was still puzzled.

"Huh." Wang Mo smiled. There was a deep meaning in his smile, and he was deeply satisfied with the sense of belonging that Chen Zhi unconsciously reflected, so he decided to teach the other party a good lesson.

"In fact, the lord's plan often makes people feel that they have taken advantage on the surface, and when they really come to the bottom of the water, they find out that they have taken advantage of it before. I lost it back at once, and at the same time, I lost it even to the old man......"

This sentence reminded Chen of the Battle of Xuzhou, and at the beginning of the war, Liu Bei thought that the chances of victory were very high. That's why he gave up the initial strategy of sticking to and attrition, and took the initiative to attack, but the result was in Wang Yu's calculations and he was defeated and lost. And Wang Yu used the Battle of Surabaya as a guide. Within one day, the two fortified cities of Xiapi and Pengcheng were connected and pacified Xuzhou.

"The same goes for intelligence. The information that used to need to be bribed and sent spies to find out is now available, if you change to Shuzhi, what will you do? ”

"Of course, there's no need to take risks...... Chen Zhi replied subconsciously, and then added: "At least there is no need to put more effort into these low-end intelligence, and it is only right to concentrate manpower and resources on real secret military intelligence." ”

"Exactly." Wang Mo continued: "In this world, the princes of all roads are not rich, and there is no need to spend more if they can save, and the information is readily available, which is cheap on the surface, maybe when they get the information, they will laugh at the lord." However, once they have all gotten used to this intelligence channel, it will be their turn to pay off their debts......"

"In fact, there is not much mystery in this, this intelligence channel, the initiative is in the hands of our army. Our army can put out whatever intelligence it wants, even if it is corrected afterwards, the people will not have any complaints, anyway, they will not be directly involved, maybe someone will find fault in a lot of intelligence, so that Mo Neng can dig out a few more talents. ”

"But for the hostile forces, this is a disaster. One critical piece of disinformation can make or break a war. But even if they knew, they could not think of it, and they would either have to spend more resources to infiltrate the upper echelons of the shogunate and spy on the low-hanging fruit, or they would have to spend a lot of time and energy analyzing the information they gathered. ”

In the end, Wang Mo concluded: "In short, the intelligence officers of all the princes have to worry a lot, and our army not only takes the opportunity to streamline the intelligence agencies and save resources, but also enjoys many benefits such as winning the hearts of the people, improving the wisdom of the people, and tapping talents." ”

"That's what happened!" Chen Zhi was so shocked that his eyes straightened.

There is such a profound truth in such a casual measure, if Wang Mo hadn't explained it face-to-face, how could he have imagined it? The glory of winning a hundred battles is really not accidental, these kung fu in the shadows that others can't see is the secret and magic weapon of victory!

When he was in Liu Bei's army, he also heard Guan and Zhang talk about Wang Yu's empty city strategy at the beginning, and he trapped thousands of Zhang's pawns. At that time, he was just unconscious, but now listening to Wang Mo's explanation, he began to understand that Zhang Jaw was trapped, not a fluke, but inevitable, Wang Yu's grasp of people's hearts is too clever, and Zhang Jaw is far from being an opponent.

"If the enemy sees through it, how can it be imitated?" In the end, his mind was delicate and agile, and after sighing for a while, Chen Zhi found a flaw.

"It's not easy to emulate." Wang Mo shook his head: "The mastery of information is the privilege of the scholars, and with this, they can always talk about the ignorance of the people and continue to fool the people." If you want to break this barrier, you must first persuade the Shi clan to make concessions, and I have no concerns in Qingzhou, but others ......"

He chuckled lightly and said with disdain: "Even if someone follows my Qingzhou with great courage and determination, it doesn't matter, at most, the two sides will stand at the same starting point again in this regard." After the lord sweeps away Youzhou, who can compete with our army in terms of overall strength? This is just a small measure, and I don't expect to do anything unearthly. ”

Wang Mo's family smell is very light, otherwise he would not have been selected by Wang Yu to be entrusted with important tasks. Chen Zhi didn't know the other party's experience, but through most of the day's contact, he also made a corresponding judgment on him, thinking that the other party was a very easy-going person.

But when he said these words, Wang Mo was like those tea guests in the teahouse, inadvertently, there was a strong sense of self-confidence, and a strong breath came to his face, or it was not an exaggeration to say that he was domineering.

Chen Zhi finally understood where the root of the difference between Qingzhou and other places was, it was this momentum! Like a sharp sword out of the sheath, the edge is exposed, and it is not bent! The strength and prosperity of Qingzhou all come from this!

With such a feeling, Chen Zhi followed behind Wang Mo and saw Wang Yu again.

"The third brother has worked hard, and so has my uncle." Wang Yu met the two in the conference hall, there was no extra greeting, nodded, said hard, and then beckoned the two to step forward, and said very directly: "Since you are here, you don't need to see outside, there is a tricky matter right now, let's take a closer look." ”

"Whoa." The two responded in unison, Wang Mo led Chen to sit down on the side, and a boy stood up from the fat man sitting in the front, walked to the two of them, handed over a piece of Qingzhou paper full of handwriting, and then did not walk, but stood beside him.

Chen Zhi didn't know why, Wang Mo explained: "This is the minutes of the meeting, and the outline of the previous topics are all recorded here. Uncle Zhi can browse it quickly, if you have an idea, after reading it, you may wish to put it forward in public. ”

Chen arrived at this time, and when he looked at the record again, he found that the handwriting on it was neat and beautiful, even if he was a person who did not know calligraphy, he had a pleasing feeling when he saw it, and he couldn't help but look at the boy a few times.

Wang Mo's explanation came at the right time: "This is the grandson of Linhuai Lu Envoy, a single name, a humble character, a family history, excellent talent, and now he is asking for benefits by Mr. He's side, and often participates in military aircraft, so Uncle Zhi doesn't have to be surprised." ”

I have to say that it makes sense for Wang Yu to let his brother be in charge of personnel, and this collar of observing words and emotions is not something that ordinary people can do.

Chen Zhi nodded and did not comment. Wang Yu likes the reputation of the young man, he knows it, but he didn't expect that the other party wouldn't even let go of such a young boy, it seems, this is also a teenager, right? Involved in military aircraft? Uh, don't say it, this word is really beautifully written, and the record is also in place, where it should be detailed, where it should be brief, clear, and clear at a glance.

Secretly sighing in his heart, Chen Zhi quickly finished reading the record, so he became even more confused. If it weren't for Lu Xun's mistakes, then ...... It's good news from Youzhou?

The messenger came from Zhuo County, and the vanguard of the Hidden Fog Army had arrived in Zhuo County, and the general besieging the city was, as Wang Yu expected, it was Zou Dan. Zou Dan is different from Shan Jing, he has no resistance to Qingzhou, and after getting in touch, he and Wei Yan had a good meeting and exchanged information.

On Wei Yan's side, he mainly informed Gongsun Zan of Wang Yu's changed deployment. Wang Yu's changed deployment was largely designed to prevent Gongsun Chan from losing the battle, and if he didn't report it in advance and find a reason to turn around, it would not be good for Gongsun Chan to see it himself.

But Zou Dan told Wei Yan a good news with joy.

Just five days before Wang Yu received the report, that is, on the sixth day of the twelfth month, Gongsun Chan and Liu Yu launched a large-scale battle outside Jixian County, and after half a day of fierce fighting, Gongsun Chan won a decisive victory and defeated the main force of Liu Yu's army in one fell swoop!

At present, Gongsun Chan has taken advantage of the situation to go to Jixian County and launched a comprehensive pursuit of Liu Yu.
