Chapter Fifty-Seven: A Strange Trick Breaks the Situation

Huangfu Song did not rush to answer Wang Xu's inquiry, and after smiling at Zhu Jun, he turned to ask: "Wang Xu, the two armies are facing each other, if you want to win more with less, what do you think should be done?" ”

"Huh?"

Wang Xu frowned, although he had some doubts about this sudden question in his heart, he still quickly replied: "This is more complicated, and there are naturally different countermeasures according to the actual situation." But in general, it is nothing more than strange, treacherous, dangerous, and fast, and it is best to match it with water, fire and other natural powers as the best policy! ”

As soon as the words fell, the two of them burst out laughing. Zhu Jun looked at Wang Xu more carefully, and said with admiration: "I often hear Brother Yizhen say how good you are, but I don't believe it, today is really a long insight!" It's strange, weird, dangerous, and fast. You are young but you already know the essence of the art of war, and if you hone it, your future is really limitless! ”

"Huh! General Zhu has won the award. ”

Waving his hand, Zhu Jun did not entangle with Wang Xu on this issue, and after glancing back at Huangfu Song, he asked again: "Then which word do you think we should use to break the yellow scarf at present?" ”

Seeing the appearance of the two of them, Wang Xu was finally sure that they had thought of the famous fire plan in history.

"Huh! We have been completely exposed, so it is impossible to be strange, and only Cao Mengde, who has come with reinforcements, can use this word. And according to the current situation, we can't afford to lose too much, so winning in danger can also be ruled out. As for the fast word, there is no chance of implementation at all. So, the only thing we can use is trick! ”

When Huangfu Song heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and he was greatly surprised. "Oh? Since you have seen it so thoroughly, is there a plan to break the enemy? ”

"It's a little bit of an idea, but it's not a plan yet, it's just a little bit of a build."

As he spoke, Wang Xu smiled slightly, sorted out his thoughts, and then slowly said what he thought in his heart.

"We are now trapped in the lonely city, and the only reinforcement is the troops led by General Cao, the commander of the cavalry, but unfortunately there are not many troops, so there are very few feasible plans! But as far as I can see, the grass and trees around this long society are luxuriant, and the Yellow Turban Bocai is stupidly camping according to the grass, which is really self-defeating, so we can think of a way on this! ”

When the two of them heard this, their eyes immediately widened, and they looked at Wang Xu in surprise. Huangfu Song couldn't help but open his mouth and asked, "Why do you say this?" ”

"Huh! This winter has been relatively warm, and since the light snowfall half a month ago, it has warmed up rapidly, and some of the snow on the ground has long since melted. And now it's late winter and early spring, the air is dry, and the sky has been clear for many days, so the grass and trees have long been dry! At this time, as long as the north wind is together, we will set fire to it, and the yellow scarves camped in the south of the city will not be ......"

"Isn't it becoming a native chicken, and it is vulnerable! Hahahaha...... "Before Wang Xu finished speaking, Zhu Jun had already laughed excitedly and grabbed the topic!"

And Huangfu Song also looked at Wang Xu with joy and sighed: "I really didn't expect you to think of this plan." Gongwei and I discussed it a lot before we figured out this plan! ”

"However, there are also two difficulties in this plan, so I will summon you!"

"What's the hard way?"

Seeing that Wang Xu was slightly puzzled, Huangfu Song did not hide it, and immediately smiled: "One needs a wise and brave person to lead the warriors in the army to sneak into the vicinity of the Yellow Turban Tent, waiting for the opportunity to set fire to it, so that we can shake it and echo it, and the plan can be realized." ”

"Secondly, Cao Cao, the cavalry commander, has already led his troops to arrive, and he should arrive in a few days. Therefore, it is necessary to inform him of this plan, so that he can take advantage of the Yellow Turban Rebellion and make a detour to raid in order to achieve greater results! ”

Hearing this, Wang Xu already understood what the two of them meant by calling him. I couldn't help but smile secretly in my heart, why did I always get involved in such dangerous things? Last time, I didn't say anything about taking the initiative to ask for war, but this time, why did I think of myself again?

However, Wang Xu also understands that it is precisely because of his excellent performance that the two of them can hand over this kind of heavy responsibility to him. If he really defeated the Yellow Turban according to the plan, then in addition to the two people in charge, he is the biggest hero!

Wang Xu, who was already interested in establishing a reputation, although he complained in his heart, would not shirk it, and immediately promised: "Don't worry, two generals!" I can do this! ”

"With you going, I'm naturally relieved!"

Nodding trustingly at Wang Xu, Huangfu Song said again: "Without further ado, I'm afraid that the weather will change after too long." So I'll lead a frontal assault this evening to get your enemy's attention. When the time comes, you can take the opportunity to sneak through another city gate and wait for the opportunity to move! As long as the fire starts on your side, I will immediately lead the troops to kill! ”

"Hmmm! The two generals can rest assured, I will definitely burn the Yellow Turban Camp without leaving a chicken and dog! ”

"Huh! Okay, so I wonder how many warriors you'll need for this trip? ”

Hearing this, Wang Xu immediately made a quick calculation in his head. Then he replied: "This is just hiding and setting fires, and it is not convenient to move if there are too many people." The general only needs to allocate another fifty loyal warriors to me, plus the people under Gao Shun's account, it is enough! ”

Seeing Wang Xu say this, Zhu Jun immediately said loudly: "Okay! In that case, then choose fifty of my personal guards, who are more suited than ordinary soldiers in terms of loyalty, wit and bravery! ”

Thinking of the importance of the matter, Wang Xu did not shirk it, and immediately nodded and promised. And seeing that the matter of burning the Changshe has been decided, he also knows that he should name the unexpected team that should not have appeared!

After a little contemplation, Wang Xu was ready to speak in his mind, and his face became solemn.

"Two generals, don't hide it from each other! In fact, this fire attack plan has been thought of a long time ago, and the reason why I haven't told the two generals is actually for another reason! ”

"Huh? What's with? Huangfu Song was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Wang Xu suspiciously.

"Earlier, when I was rushing to Yingyin, I heard some rumors from the people that the Yellow Turban thieves not only gathered in Yingyin, but also many came in the direction of Changshe. At that time, I was very confused, so I took a detour to the Changsha. Tong Guò followed a Yellow Turban squad, and only then did he find a large camp of Yellow Turban thieves hidden in the mountain col dozens of miles west of the Changshe, and there were nearly 20,000 people! ”

"I didn't understand why it was this way and I didn't pay attention to it. But since our soldiers retired from the Changshe Society, this has become a worry in my heart! I didn't report it to the two generals right away because I wasn't sure if the other was still there! Fear instead misled the actions of the two generals! ”

In fact, what Wang Xu said was almost the truth, but he didn't take the initiative to implement the fire plan because he was afraid of accidents, and he couldn't afford to be defeated!

"There is such a thing!" As soon as Wang Xu's words fell, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun stood up in surprise.

"This is difficult to do, if we wait to take advantage of the fire to attack and kill Bocai, this army will kill from the side, the consequences will be unimaginable!" As he spoke, Huangfu Song already looked worried, and walked back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back.

And Zhu Jun was also very surprised, and said without any consideration: "Whether this army is still there or not, we must send a group of men and horses to ambush outside." If the yellow scarf comes out, immediately block it halfway and delay it as much as possible. After we kill the Bocai army, we will turn around and clean him up! ”

"I know, but where can so many people lurk now. If a letter is sent to Cao Cao to complete the blocking mission, then Bocai's side lacks a powerful raider. If you fail to defeat the Bocai army in one fell swoop and let it come to its senses, the consequences will also be very severe! ”

Seeing that Huangfu Song was already anxious because of this accident, Wang Xu's face eased, and he smiled and said the plan he had thought of a long time ago!

"General Huangfu, in fact, this matter is not difficult. Anyway, if you want to make a feint today, then send another wise and brave general to rush out of the north gate with troops! ”

"How easy it is to say! When the brigade of soldiers and horses is killed, how can Bocai not see it, and he will definitely send troops to pursue! ”

"What's the big deal, let him chase after him, and the more people he sends to chase the better! I can't even do an ambush outside! ”
