After a tentative attack all morning, Zhang Xun found that in Qu'a City, although the defenders were very well cooked, the defending equipment had some doorways, and it was difficult for the ants to achieve results in the strong attack......

This also eliminated Zhang Xun's mind of quick victory, after all, in the case of the ladder battle, considering the time to build the ladder, I am afraid that it will be good to be able to defeat Qu A in a month.

After all, every time you retreat, it is impossible to cover all the ladders to leave together, and even with Zhang Xun's army, this kind of craftsmanship of soldiers who have only received "conventional siege training", it would be good if the ladders could be pushed under the city without breaking, most of them were disposable!

Thinking of the problem of military food consumption, Zhang Xun also had a headache - Yuan Shu's flowers bloomed on all sides, looking beautiful and powerful, but in fact, he also knew in his heart that the pressure was not small, before Zhang Xun left, Yuan Shu also talked to him secretly, striving for a quick victory, once it fell into a stalemate, if necessary, he could loot civilians outside the city to fill the military resources......

As soon as the army moves, the consumption of this military ration will at least double, can Yuan Shu's pressure not be great? Even for 30,000 rice, he turned his face with Lu Kang of the Lu family!

But at this moment, an unexpected "letter" came to Qu'a City-it was actually a war letter.

It was seven or eight horsemen who crossed the outpost and shot at the gate of the barracks, and each of them shot four or five arrows, thirty or forty of the same letters, and was shot in......

"How can this be true? Chen Gong, the lost dog, is simply too deceitful! After Zhang Xun read the one sent, he slapped it on the table, then snorted twice, and said: "Confiscate, it is not allowed to be circulated in the army!" ”

"General...... What was written in the letter, in addition to slandering the general? Li Feng asked stiffly.

At this time, there are still seven or eight middle-level generals in the account, and they also need to know what the conditions of the war book are before they can make a judgment, but they ...... Zhang Xun looked angry, which made them a little afraid to ask.

Since it is a battle book, it should definitely be an invitation to fight in a battle formation or a fighting general - it is basically impossible to fight a general, let Zhang Xun go and fight Lu Bu alone? No matter how big Zhang Xu's temper is, he doesn't dare!

In the case of the fighting array, it is actually unlikely, because the general fighting array is about to fight with the same number of troops, and now that their own side has such a big advantage, why do they want to fight the formation? Even if you are a radical general, you can't be fooled......

Looking at Zhang Xun's appearance, the generals said in their hearts: Could it be that Chen Gong also accused his father of scolding his mother in the letter? Not really, right? He Chen Gong is also a scholar, and it is said that he is quite honest.

"See for yourself!" Zhang Xun thought about it and handed the letter over.

Li Feng looked at the first few lines, his face became strange, and he said secretly: Chen Gong is worthy of being a scholar!

I saw that Zhang Xun was praised at the beginning, and he was also a person who was familiar with the art of war, as if he wanted to blow each other militarily......

However, the next conversation changed, and it was suddenly mentioned that "Sun Tzu's Art of War has clouds: ten are to surround it, five to attack it, and to divide it if it is doubled."

Li Feng knew that this was a passage in the "Art of War" chapter on plotting an attack, which meant that when the enemy was ten times as strong as the enemy, he would encircle the enemy, and when he attacked the enemy head-on five times as much as the enemy, and when he only had twice the strength of the enemy, he should first find a way to divide the strength of the enemy army.

The core of the entire "Attack Chapter" is a concept of "surrendering without a fight", not the art of war.

There is also a sentence in it that is even more famous - go to the army to fight, then to fight, then to attack the army, and then to attack the city.

In short, it is to warn people not to fight wars with too many casualties, which is also determined by the background of the Spring and Autumn Period.

Although the aristocracy at that time did not regard the common people as equal "people", at that time, there was no common people's business to fight, but to carry out the war in the aristocratic class, and paid attention to the righteous war.

In this world, according to legend, the city concubines in the Western Zhou Dynasty were not able to train "military service", and they were all nobles and servants of the nobles who went into battle by themselves.

However, as we all know, in the late Spring and Autumn Period, there was not so much to say, and the common people were not only not people, but also cannon fodder......

What Sun Tzu admired at the time was that if you really fought, it was not your ability to win, you had to be able to capture all the other party's prisoners.

And the premise of this sentence "ten rules to encircle" is exactly like this - ten times to encircle, five times to attack...... In terms of the concept of war at the time, this was usually acceptable to surrender without fighting.

However, after Chen Gong suddenly mentioned such a sentence, he wrote later: Now that the power of the general Huanghuang is coming with the momentum of Mount Tai pressing the egg, he is still cautious and cautious, and he is better than his grandson, so as not to divide the palace. This time, the palace is willing to raise 3,000 troops, and the generals are 10,000 and five, with the full military art of the whole general......

Li Feng saw that the corners of his mouth trembled, and said secretly: He is worthy of being a scholar!

The subtext is nothing more than that, you see that you have such a big advantage, and you are still like a grandson, I also know that you are afraid of me, then according to the "Art of War", I will use 3,000, and the enemy will be 15,000!

"General, ...... There may be fraud. Li Feng said stubbornly.

"Nonsense! If there is no deception, does he Chen Gong really dare to have a thousand elite cavalry and two thousand recruits, just against General Shangben's ten thousand soldiers and horses? Zhang Xun said and glared at him.

"General Mingjian." Li Feng praised it.

"But...... Since you know that he is cheating, it is not impossible to take advantage of it! Whatever he wants to do, but our forces ...... There is also the ability of this general, there must be an absolute advantage, and it can be seen when attacking the city today, they are nothing more than some strange and clever skills.

In other words, whatever his plot is, as long as he pulls the army out of the city, it will be in our favor, as long as we are careful! Zhang Xun said.

"General...... Wise. Li Feng thought about it, and it seemed to be the same thing.

If there was no siege defeat today, perhaps Zhang Xun would have been more cautious, but now that he has seen the "wolf's teeth" and found that he can only slowly grind his morale, Zhang Xun is also a little anxious, and at the same time, the siege in the morning also gave Zhang Xun a more favorable impression of the diplomatic battle.

"And you can't let Chen Gong look down on him! General Ben will reply to him, and it doesn't take two thousand, no matter how many people he comes...... General Ben commanded 10,000! Zhang Xun said viciously.

Li Feng: ......

After talking for a long time, the co-authors still had to rely on at least twice the number of soldiers and horses in Qu'a City, and they could also estimate that even if all the manpower in Danyang was conscripted, there would be only 4,000 recruits.

"He also chose a location and asked General Ben to book a time? Then tomorrow, don't give him more time to delay! Zhang Xun said and began to write a battle book.

And when Bai Tu, Chen Gong and others saw Zhang Xun's reply, looked at his army, and began to retreat as promised, they couldn't help but smile......
