。。。 There is a market at home, in Zhengzhou, which has not been in operation for several years for some reasons. A few days ago, there was news that someone was selling our market land under a false name, and it needs to be dealt with. So I've been a little busy for a while, and I haven't been able to change it the next day, so please understand. Tomorrow will restore more...

——

It's just that because of Pan Xianer's momentary awakening, this kind of situation where the two armies met halfway did not appear. After he was busy with the business at hand, he pondered in the tent for a while, and hurriedly went to the camp outside the tent to find Zhao Guo, who was selecting the generals to go out.

"My lord, I suddenly remembered something."

Zhao Guo was talking to Tong Shengyang and Hu Zhong, when he heard this, he turned his head and asked, "What, what's the matter?" ”

Pan Xianji looked at the generals and said, "Please take a step to speak." ”

Zhao Guo followed him and walked a few steps to the side: "First, what did Mr. remember?" ”

"My lord, you also know that according to the analysis of the humble position, Wu Junzhi's true intention is very likely to be Xuzhou. The movement of our troops can be concealed for a while, but it cannot be concealed for a lifetime. The distance between the two large battalions of our army and the Wu army is only a few miles, and it is estimated that it will not be long before the Wu army will know. At that time, if Wu Jun knew that we were going to take Xuzhou, and their real purpose was really Xuzhou, would they be? ”

"What will?"

"Of course, it will definitely not turn against our army. However, will you immediately pull out the camp and rush to Xuzhou to compete with me? ”

Not to mention, it's very likely that it is. Zhao Guo pondered for a moment and said, "First, what Mr. said makes sense. ”

"If it is as humble as the analysis, after Wu Jun heard the news, he really immediately pulled out the camp and rushed to Xuzhou, my lord, we can't stop them! And said, if you just let them leave like this, and when you get to the city of Xuzhou, we are on one side and they on the other, I'm afraid it will be a big trouble. ”

"First of all, I understand what Mr. means. So between gentlemen, what should we—what should we do? ”

"One word: drag. As long as Wu Jun can be dragged down, it doesn't have to be delayed for long, three or two days is enough! ”

Zhao Guo shook his head, with the temperament of Chang Yuchun, his sex is like fire, his real intention is not Xuzhou, if it is really Xuzhou, let alone delay it for three or two days, it is even more difficult to delay it for a day. Wu Jun insisted on leaving, what could Yan Jun do? Can you still surround and not let you go? This wants to spread out, but it will damage Haidong's reputation too much. The Wu army came thousands of miles to help, but when they came, they were treated like this?

"It's hard to do three or two days. But what Mr. said is not bad, indeed, they should be delayed, but if they can be delayed all night, according to me, it is not bad. ”

"Just one night? I'm afraid there isn't enough time. ”

Zhao Guo lowered his head and thought for a moment, made a decision, changed the decision he had just made in the account, and said: "This, so, let's advance the time of leaving the army, change, change it to set off tomorrow morning." Then, I, I will find a way to drag Wu Jun to the day after tomorrow. ”

"Tomorrow morning? Wouldn't Wu Jun soon be able to find out? How else to delay? ”

It's summer, and it's dawning early. When the army goes out in the morning, without even asking, the Wu army can see it clearly.

Zhao Guo smiled slightly and said, "No, don't say that you will go to Xuzhou." ”

"So say yes?"

"Just, just say that he got Fu Youde's military report, Wang Baobao collected Chuqiu and Yangjiaozhuang, and contacted Chengwu's Tartars to try to counterattack Chuqiu. Therefore, therefore, our army sent troops to help. ”

"But this can only be concealed until the afternoon at most."

Chuqiu is dozens of miles away from Shanzhou, if Wu Jun has a heart, at most in the afternoon, the news will reach Chang Yuchun's ears, and they will find out that Yan Jun is actually not going to help Fu Youde.

"Send my post, send it to Lord Chang, and then say that in order to thank them for helping our army, I will give him a banquet at noon tomorrow, and at the same time, I will reward Sergeant Wu on behalf of the lord."

The night before yesterday, Chang Yuchun invited Zhao Guo to the Spring Banquet. Although it was said that as early as last night, Zhao Guo invited him back to the banquet, but if he played the name of Deng She tomorrow and went to reward Wu Jun again, as a kind of etiquette, it was really difficult to refuse Chang Yuchun.

Pan Xian'er pondered for a while, stretched out his thumb, and praised: "My lord's plan is wonderful!" "The noon banquet drunk the generals who often met spring. And Chang Yuchun and the others got drunk, didn't they drag Wu Jun until tomorrow?

However, Pan Xianer had doubts and said: "But my lord, let's tell Wu Jun that we are going to help Fu Youde, will they be furious after they know the truth?" Because after all, we deceived them, and we are at fault! He didn't say a word, after all, the so-called Wu Jun's desire to take Xuzhou was just a guess, if this guess was wrong, and Chang Yuchun knew that Yan Jun had deceived them, how could they have to pay for the loss?

"Who, who said that we were going to tell Wu Jun that we were going to help Fu Youde?"

"What do you mean?"

"Just, just let out the wind."

only let out the rumors, but did not tell the word. In this way, even if Wu Jun knew the truth and knew that Yan Jun was actually coaxing them, he would definitely be dumb and eat Coptis chinensis, and he would not be able to say anything about his suffering. This "rushing to help Fu Youde" was not told to them by Zhao Guo himself, it was just a rumor about them. "Rumors", there are true and false, even if you want to blame, who can you blame?

Pan Xianer looked at Zhao Guo with admiration and said, "My lord, what a clever plan! ”

He didn't admire this strategy, although it was watertight, but in fact it was very simple and easy to come up with. What he admires is that "Zhao Guo" can actually come up with this strategy, you must know that all along, in the minds of Haidong generals, Zhao Guo is a well-deserved and honest person.

- Actually, "soldiers are not tired of cheating". Anyway, Zhao Guo has also fought on the battlefield for many years, even if he is sincere in nature, can he not even "use fraud"? If not, what kind of war! It's just that steel has to be used on the blade, and in normal times, he doesn't need to use fraud.

As the saying goes: if you don't do it, it doesn't mean you won't.

"And what about it?"

"That's it, that's it. I also want to trouble Mr., go, go to logistics, find a baggage camp, prepare more chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep, and send them to Wuying tomorrow morning. "Since it is said that it is to reward Wu Jun on behalf of Deng She, it is natural that he needs to come up with something.

"Yes."

Pan Xian'er turned his eyes and glanced at Tong Shengyang's generals not far away, and asked, "Dare to ask your lordship, can you choose the main general and the head of the camp to go out?" ”

"This, this to Xuzhou, is a long-distance attack, soldiers, soldiers are fast, I plan to choose Hu Zhong."

"General Hu's headquarters are all cavalry, used to siege the city?"

Although Hu Zhong's subordinates were all Han soldiers, and many of them had originally switched from foot soldiers to cavalry, Xuzhou was a big city, not as good as Chuqiu, and only cavalry went to attack? I'm afraid it's not easy.

Zhao Guo bowed his head and said, "So, so, transfer Yang Wanhu again." ......, the main general, Yang Wanhu will be the main general, and Hu Zhong will be the deputy. ”

Pan Xian'er pinched his fingers and calculated, and said: "General Yang's headquarters are all foot soldiers, good at attacking fortifications, and able to fight in the field, which is really the elite of our Haidong infantry battle." With him, it should be about the same. It's just an adult, I don't know how many people are going to be transferred to General Hu's headquarters? ”

"Thousand, thousand."

You can't adjust too much, if you adjust too much, Shanzhou won't be able to surround it.

"General Hu's headquarters has 1,000 cavalry, and General Yang's headquarters now has more than 2,000 people on the front line in Shanzhou. ......, the adults plan to attack Xuzhou with only 3,000 steps? ”

"No, not really. Chuqiu Gao Yanshi Department, I, I have sent someone to send a military order, telling him not to go back to the camp, so, he will be stationed on the spot, waiting for Yang and Hu to arrive, one, go to Xuzhou together. And then from the guards who were sent to Chuqiu before, as well as some of the people from Fu Youde's department, they also joined them. ”

"Total?"

"More than 4,600 people."

Nearly five thousand people. According to common sense, it is still a bit insufficient to use such people to fight Xuzhou.

It must be known that when the attack on Xuzhou was detached, there were tens of thousands of people and horses used! At that time, there was a person called the "Yellow Army" under his command, and he was known as "60,000" on this road alone. Of course, there are a lot of empty heads among them, and the so-called "Yellow Army" on this road are all recruited temporarily, and they have not undergone any training. But the momentum can also be imagined. Rao is like this, and he still fought fiercely under Xuzhou City for many days, and only then did he defeat Sesame Li and take Xuzhou City.

Nowadays, although the Yan army is all elite, it is by no means comparable to the "Yellow Army" and the like, but with less than 5,000 people, can Xuzhou City be captured?

Pan Xianer said: "Xuzhou is a city, and there are two guards. Lu Ju, the Privy Council of Meng Yuan is also known; Song Xingzu, the marshal of Shicheng. The defenders claimed to be 50,000, at best 5,000 or 6,000 men, of whom at most 1,200,000 were capable of fighting. Moreover, in the early years, after the slaughter of the city, there were not many people in the city, and the city walls were also destroyed. Among the adults' strategies, Yang, Hu, and Gao generals are all brave in Haidong, and this long-distance attack is unprepared. Although there are less than 5,000 people, it is inferred from humble duties that they will be able to win and succeed immediately! He bowed, "Congratulations to your lordship first!" ”

Zhang Shicheng surrendered to Mengyuan, on the one hand, there were benefits, and on the other hand, there were also pays.

His dedication is naturally that he needs to deliver grain to Dadu every year; And his profit is that he can also be recognized by many Mengyuan forces in the territory. For example, Xuzhou, in fact, was originally under the control of Meng Yuan, but because he surrendered, and Shandong and other places next to Xuzhou have been covered with red scarves, so it is temporarily under his control. This looks good, but there is also an element of instability inside. One city, two defenders. If there is anything, what is the final say? Who should I listen to? The guards are bound to be at odds. Once the defenders are at odds, the city guards are in danger.

The two guards of Xuzhou, Song Xingzu don't need to say much, a member of Shicheng's command.

Lu Ju can be said to be the head snake of Xuzhou.

As early as after he broke off Xuzhou, he was in the local area to "fuss the exile and protect the city", which was quite prestigious, so that "Kou did not dare to commit it". If he was the only one to defend the city, he might be an opponent, but now that Song Xingzu has been added, because of the above reasons, Pan Xianer didn't care.

There was also a detachment slaughter city, which slaughtered a million-inhabited Xuzhou city cleanly, until many years later, it was still a city fox and a mouse, full of weeds, and almost no people. Although there is Lu Ju's painstaking management, it is not as prosperous as it was when it was prosperous. There are few people in the city, and it is inevitable that when defending the city, it will be overwhelmed.

Zhao Guo said with a smile: "Say, when it comes to strategizing, Mr. is well-deserved." ”

This time to take Xuzhou, the strategy used was exactly what Pan Xianer offered.

It was precisely because of his clever strategy that Zhao Guo dared to boldly use less than 5,000 people to capture Xuzhou!

Say a thousand, say ten thousand. No matter how favorable the objective situation is to oneself, if you want to win without fail, this "objectivity" is by no means an object that can be relied on, and you still need to rely on "yourself"!

But I don't know, what plan did Pan Xianer offer? What is the difference with Liu Ji's plan to take Xuzhou that Liu Ji dedicated to Zhu Yuanzhang? If you have the opportunity to compare, which one will come out on top?

1, Huang Jun.

"There is a Huaidong Marshal Lu Shan, who said that the officials and troops are not accustomed to water and soil, and it is advisable to recruit salt under the field, which can make the siege of the city, but Lang Zhonglu of the Ministry of Rites has been a consolation envoy for Huainan, leading the conquest and raising 5,000 people from the coastal salt Ding to conquer Xuzhou. There are also Huaidong Haomin Wang Xuan, Yan Ding Benyefu, it is not as good as the brave and convenient people in the fundraising market, and they can get rid of it and follow it. There were 30,000 people in the front and back, all in yellow clothes and hats, called the Yellow Army. ”
