Nan Ye and Sima Yi had the same concerns. At this time, Gan Ning and Tai Shici in the array were already in danger. Nan Ye would rather let Sun Quan go than lose the two admirals, so when he saw Sima Yi Mingjin withdraw his troops, he also Mingjin at the same time.

When the two warring armies heard that Ming Jin had all reined in their troops and horses, they each cautiously retreated. Sun Quan finally picked up a life, and Gan Ning, Tai Shici and other generals were also safe.

After Nan Ye set up camp, he summoned the generals to ask how the battle was going. Gan Ning and Tai Shici told Zhang Hezhong's plan before, and asked Nan Ye for guilt. Nan Ye naturally knew that Sima Yi was powerful, and he didn't blame the generals, but just comforted: "Today's big victory over Sun Quan can be regarded as a reversal." I don't know what other plans you have to break the enemy? ”

Gan Ning and other generals all had a blind trust in Nan Ye, and Gan Ning smiled: "Why is the national teacher here worrying that Cao Jun is not broken? If we follow the national teacher and rush up, Sima Yi will be defeated. ”

Seeing Gan Ning's blind optimism, Nan Ye couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Xingba, don't underestimate Sima Yi." This man is good at trickery, and I am afraid that he will not fight us head-on. ”

Jia Xu said: "The way to use soldiers lies in the change of Qizheng. No matter how many tricks Sima Yi has, if the regular soldiers are not as good as us, they will be defeated. In my opinion, we can wait for Meng to raise troops to attack them together, and the Cao and Wu armies will be defeated. ”

When Huang Zhong heard Jia Xu mention Ma Chao, he couldn't help but wonder: "I waited for the soldiers and horses from all four routes to Yanzhou, why didn't Meng Qi come?" Could it be that the state is so difficult to attack? ”

Guo Jia shook his head and said, "It's not difficult to attack the state." Meng Qi and Shi Yuan had already taken the state and returned to the national teacher, but the national teacher had other arrangements, so they did not arrive. Now all the available soldiers are here. ”

Lu Xun said: "It doesn't matter if Meng Qi can't get up, with the national teacher here, he is not afraid of Sima Yi's head-on confrontation." We might as well line up and win with regular troops. ”

Guo Jia smiled: "Boyan's plan is also!" Fighting soldiers, fighting generals Sima Yi, and Sun Quan are not opponents of the national division. I'm afraid that Sima Yi won't come out. ”

Jia Xu said: "It's okay to do this! The national teacher can write a war book to provoke Sima Yi to send troops. ”

Nan Ye really has a set of scolding formations in leading the troops, after all, he has a good background in scolding. However, this is only limited to words, and it is not enough to put it into practice. If the war book is full of dirty words, the other party can directly tear it up, and it will look vulgar. So Nan Ye said: "I don't know how to write the war book in order to provoke Sima Yi to send troops?" ”

Jia Xu said with a smile: "The national teacher doesn't have to worry about this matter, just leave it to me." "Saying that, the man took the pen and paper and waved it.

Nan Ye and the generals applauded after reading the war book. However, Huang Zhong frowned and said, "This battle book is really good!" But I don't know who to send? If Sun Quan and Sima Yi are provoked, the person who wrote the book will be suspended. ”

Lu Xun smiled: "What's so difficult about this." There are many soldiers of Wei and Wu in the battalion, and it is enough to send a letter before the first one of them. ”

The discussion was decided, and a captive of Eastern Wu was summoned to the tent. Nan Ye asked: "You are a soldier of the Wu army, how about letting you go back to the camp to see Sun Zhongmou now?" ”

Hearing this, Wu Jun's soldiers knelt down and touched their heads to the ground and said: "The villain is really willing to surrender to the national division, and he does not want to be the enemy of the national division again." ”

Nan Ye didn't expect that this Wu army prisoner was quite individual, and he wouldn't let him go. Nan Ye said helplessly: "You get up and speak." I really want to let you go back to camp, not to test you, and you don't have to be afraid. ”

Wu Jun stood up and said, "What the villain said is true!" The villain's parents and wives are all in Yangzhou, and now Yangzhou has been obtained by the national teacher, and the villain is the people under the rule of the national teacher, and it is not ridiculous to help Sun Quan again. ”

Nan Ye has nothing to say now, people really surrender, can he still stop it? Just when Nan Ye was considering whether to change the captive to deliver the letter, Guo Jia said: "Since you are sincere, now the national teacher has a letter, and I want you to send it to Sun Zhongmou, and there will be a heavy reward after the deed is completed, you are willing to go." ”

Hearing this, Wu Jun's pawn arched his hand and said: "The villain is willing to go!" ”

Nan Ye didn't expect this to be okay, so he handed over the battle book written by Jia Xu to the soldier and instructed: "When you return to the camp, don't say that I sent you as an envoy, just say that I will put you back and carry the letter along the way, otherwise you will be killed by Sun Zhongmou." ”

When Wu Jun's soldiers heard the news, they said that they had received the letter, and rushed back to Wuzhai overnight to present Jia Xu's letter to Sun Quan and Sima Yi. Sun Quan had an injury on his shoulder, so he asked Sima Yi to open the book and look at it.

His book said: "Nan Ye, the master of the Han Dynasty and the sage of the Great Dao, wrote to Sun Zhongmou, the king of Wu, and Sima Zhongda, the governor of Wei: those who steal as generals can bend and stretch, can be soft and strong, can advance and retreat, and can be weak and strong." Immovable like mountains, unpredictable like yin and yang, infinite like heaven and earth, full as Taicang, vast as the four seas, dazzling as three lights. Predict the drought and flood of astronomy, know the peace and health of geography first, observe the period of the formation, and figure out the short and long of the enemy.

You wait for the uneducated juniors, go against the sky, usurp the country and rebel, call the emperor Yu Jianye, go to the remnants of the army in the five states, the water and land are poor, and the people and horses are rampant. Throw away the armor of the suburbs, and abandon the swords and guns all over the ground. The governor's heart is broken and his heart is broken, and the general is busy with rats and wolves! Seeing the father and elder of Guanzhong without face, He Yan entered the hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion! The historian recorded it with his pen, and the people spread it from all mouths: Zhong Da was wary when he heard the formation, and Zhong Mou looked forward to the wind! Our army is strong and strong, and the general Tiger Fen uses Longxiang to sweep Qinchuan as Pyongyang, and sweep Wu as a hill famine! If you dare to fight, see you tomorrow. ”

Sun Quan and Sima Yi couldn't help but fill their chests with hatred. Sun Quan clenched his fists with both hands and cracked the arrow wound and said: "Nan Ye is too deceitful, and he will definitely fight with him tomorrow." ”

Sima Yi had defeated Gan Ning and Tai Shici for a while, and he didn't believe that Nan Ye had the ability to penetrate the heavens and the earth, so he replied: "Let's fight in the future." "Four words, and let the Wu army send it back.

Nan Ye got a reply and rewarded the soldiers, Guo Jia, Jia Xu, and Lu Xun, the three military advisors, discussed with the generals the method of arranging the troops, and ordered everyone to go down and prepare like this, just waiting for the dawn to fight.

Early the next morning, Nan Ye gathered all the soldiers in the camp and came to the shore of Yanshui. Here is a river on one side, a mountain on the other, and the central Pingchuan wilderness, a good battlefield. The two armies met each other and shot the horns with bows and arrows. After the three drums, the flags of Wu and Wei were opened, Sun Quan and Sima Yi went out, and the generals followed.

Sun Quanlai was in front of the battle, and saw Nan Ye's mount Bai Zhen, leaning on the heavenly sword at his waist, and wearing a purple and gold unicorn armor majestic, so he stepped forward and said: "I have no grudge against the national teacher, and the national teacher wants to invade each other, how can I be a teacher of benevolence and righteousness?" Why don't the national teachers return as soon as possible, and guard the borders to avoid causing misery to the lives of the people. ”

Nan Ye urged Bai Zhen to step forward and said: "You and other ancestors are all Hanchen, the world eats Hanlu, and you don't want to repay the service, but are usurpers, aren't you ashamed?" I begged for a thief on the orders of the Son of Heaven, and I didn't dare to do my best? ”

Sun Quan was ashamed when he heard this. If you talk about the orthodoxy of the world, although Liu Bei, Sun Quan, and Nan Ye have their own reasons, only Nan Ye has never claimed to be the emperor himself, and the country name and year name are all extended to the Han Dynasty. This alone makes the people of the world respect Nanye as orthodox, not to mention the newspaper hype.

Seeing that Sun Quan was dumbfounded, Sima Yi stepped forward and said: "The national teacher Hugh wants to take advantage of his tongue here, and I will fight with you!" If you can win, I will not be a general! If you are defeated, return to your hometown as soon as possible, and I will not harm you. ”

Guo Jia smiled when he heard this: "Sima Xiao'er, how can the national teacher be afraid of you? Do you want to fight? Fighter? Or is it a fighting formation? ”

Sima Yi is not stupid, he thinks about it carefully, the fighting generals are definitely not as good as Nan Ye, and the fighting soldiers are also relatively suspenseful, only the fighting array is still somewhat certain. He said, "How about the first battle formation?" ”

Although Nan Ye knew how to train, he was not familiar with the formation, so he looked at Guo Jia and asked, "Feng Xiao has a plan to break the formation?" ”

Guo Jia said with a smile: "The national teacher doesn't have to worry, Pang Shiyuan, Jia Wen and all know the skills of Qimen Dunjia, we often learn from each other, and Sima Yi can't help me." What's more, the formation is exquisite, and it still needs the elite soldiers to show its power, and with the vine armor army, it is not difficult to forcibly break the formation. ”

Nan Ye nodded when he heard this, the so-called formation is to put it bluntly, it is also a way to line up, which can effectively improve the efficiency of the soldiers' battles. If it was a one-on-one heads-up, it didn't matter what the formation was, but when thousands of soldiers clashed, the power of the formation came into play. The generals who can make good use of the formation can make every soldier play their role in the battle formation, and the generals who are not good at the formation can only use the strength of some soldiers to let the rest of the soldiers play soy sauce, so that the generals who make good use of the formation can form an advantage of fighting more and less under the same strength. However, this advantage is not irreparable, if you let the vine armor army with one as ten fight, even if the formation loses, it can make up for the numerical gap with its strength.

After Guo Jia comforted Nan Ye, he said to Sima Yi: "Since you want to fight in the formation, explain the rules first, and I will see the formation." ”

When Sima Yi heard this, he ordered the soldiers to order thousands of soldiers, holding yellow flags in their hands, and moving left and right in a formation. Then he said to Guo Jia: "We all use thousands of people to set up the formation, and we use hundreds of people to break the formation, but how about the one who can come out of the formation win?" ”

Guo Jia understood that Sima Yi's restriction of a thousand people as a formation had the intention of temptation, not to use the formation to fight and decide life and death, so it seemed that Sima Yi was not completely sure, which made Guo Jia more confident, and said with a smile: "Just follow your words!" ”

Sima Yi asked, "In that case, can you recognize my formation?" ”

Guo Jia said with a smile: "The last general in our army can also set up your array." This is a mixed element and a gas array. ”

Sima Yi was shocked when he heard this, usually those who can recognize the formation can break the formation, and Guo Jia recognized that the formation has a way to break the formation. However, Sima Yi was not willing to admit defeat, so he said to Guo Jia: "Although you can know, you may not be able to break it, can you dare to order someone to step forward to break the formation?" ”

Guo Jia said: "What's so difficult about this? Wait for me to arrange the people. After that, he turned back to Nan Ye and said, "Dare to borrow the national teacher's personal guard." ”

Nanye's mage guards are exactly a hundred, and any one person can be worthy of a third-rate general, and a hundred people are gathered in one place, even Zhao Yun and Dian Wei are not opponents. Guo Jia borrowed troops at this time, and Nan Ye naturally agreed and let Guo Jia deploy at will.

Guo Jia eliminated ten people from the mage's personal guards, and ordered Dian Wei, Zhou Cang, Zhao Yun, Yang Xiong, Huang Zhong, Huang Xu, Gan Ning, Tai Shici, Wei Yan, and Zhang He to make up for it. Then he instructed: "Although this array is real and there is not much flaw, there is no place where the array is difficult to beat. After you enter the formation, you don't care about the number of people in front of you, you just rush forward, you don't have to avoid the real and the virtual, you can naturally go out of the formation. ”
