It's a great battle.

Whether it was the Bingzhou Army commanded by Li Shushi or the Yuan Shaojun under Yuan Shao, they all had the belief of winning this war.

Even if he temporarily falls into the upper hand, he will still not be discouraged, will not retreat, and will not surrender to the enemy in a slump.

Because, for either side of the war, the defeat of this war will be an unbearable outcome.

No one can afford to lose.

Therefore, even if Yuan Shaojun suffered a rather tragic defeat in the early stage of the war because of impatience - not only lost more than 50,000 troops, but also lost hundreds of generals at all levels below the three most famous generals in Yuan Shao's formation, Yan Liang, Wen Chou and Han Xiang, Gao Ran surrendered in battle, only Jiang Qi escorted the eldest prince Yuan Tan and the third prince Yuan Shang almost escaped back to the Yuan army's main formation.

However, Yuan Shao's army did not collapse suddenly, and continued to carry out guerrilla attacks and harassment operations with small forces with a small force in mourning troops, and even relied on the performance of Yuwentuo and other grassland generals to gain a slight upper hand in this tug-of-war.

However, whether it is the Bingzhou Army or Yuan Shaojun, in this battle, they will never forget the name of one person, that is, the man who single-handedly directed the humiliating defeat that made Yuan Shao faint and fall on the spot - Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao, the masterminds next to Li Shushi.

Even when the world mentions him, they will definitely use the two mastermind-level figures in Yuan Shao's army as foils - Yuan Shao's son Yuan Fang, who was cut off before the war to sacrifice the flag, but caused such a strange incident as blood splashing on the handsome flag, and Tian Toyoda Yuanhao, who angered Yuan Shao because of his post-war admonition and was taken advantage of by other strategists to fall into the well and be imprisoned.

In fact, as long as Li Shushi's Bingzhou army can defeat Yuan Shao's army in this battle, then the contrast between these three people will definitely become an important point that cannot be ignored in the history books and will be repeatedly mentioned again.

"You're famous." The old fox Jia Xu sat on the green grass with his hands and knees, looking ahead, with some kind of inexplicable love on his face.

"Aren't you happy that the 'apprentice' you have cultivated can finally become a teacher. Your purpose has been accomplished. ”

Lying on the soft grass very casually, squinting and not knowing what he was thinking, but from the regular swing of the dog's tail grass biting at the corner of his mouth, it can be seen that a certain prodigal son seems to be in a good mood now.

"Yes, my purpose has been accomplished, but people are so strange. Even I can't avoid vulgarity after all. ”

"Forget it, I don't know yet, isn't it because I thought I could become famous and took a back seat, but recently I was surrounded by a group of generals to make you come up with an equally ruthless strategy, and the sense of storage zΓ i not only did not decline, but recently exploded directly."

"So isn't this qiΔ“ all the sins of you, the prodigal son!"

"Anyway, I didn't expect this group of guys to have such a heavy 'sense of revenge'."

"It's really strange that you guy can't see people's hearts clearly→_→!"

"Sure enough, even a wise man like me will be lost in the face of some huge, within reach!"

"Hmph, even if you kid want to repay your 'teacher' in this way, it's in vain. But I still have to remind you: be careful of the inevitable Cao Mengde. That person's ambition and ability are definitely not comparable to Yuan Shao. ”

Standing up, Jia Xu left with him, looking quite a bit fairy - of course, this needs to ignore the grass sticks and flying insects that keep falling from him, but Jia Xu, who has something on his mind, probably won't notice these small details.

It's just that Guo Jia didn't have much of the mood to laugh at Jia Xu's bad image at this time.

"Xuchang's Cao Mengde...... It is indeed an opponent that cannot be ignored. But isn't it more fun to defeat such an opponent? ”

Although there was a brief distraction for a while. But the prodigal son was a prodigal son after all, and soon regained that evil smile.

The war is still deadlocked.

In fact, for a campaign of this magnitude. Often, there are two completely different possibilities - either a decisive battle between the two sides will quickly split the winner within a few days, or the big battle will be divided into countless large and small sub-battles, and the two sides will use various means to accumulate their own advantages in the long standoff, and then use one thing as the fuse for the final decisive battle.

Of course, although it may seem like the opposite, in fact the key nodes are all the same. It is in the final decisive battle, but if the early accumulation is good enough, then the winning rate in the decisive battle will seem to be higher, but if you feel that you can rest easy, then whether it is the battle of Guandu between Yuan Cao and the battle of Weishui between Qin and Jin, which has not yet taken place, are good examples - some people may point out all kinds of reasons to prove the superiority of Cao Cao and the Eastern Jin side. But in fact, putting aside the results, if it weren't for Yuan Shao and Fu Jian's side taking the initiative to make mistakes, and it was a huge mistake, the result would have been very different.

Perhaps that's why these two famous games are so surprising to win more with less.

As for the Battle of Chibi, it is the kind of war that accumulates small victories into big victories - the Sun-Liu coalition army under the command of Zhou Yu used various means to weaken Cao Cao, the big boss, and finally took advantage of the home field, whether it was Cao Cao who burned the ship and retreated or Zhou Yu burned the world with a fire on the Hengjiang River, all in all, this is also another classic case of winning more with less.

And in terms of operability, the latter is obviously more practical than the former, after all, if the coach of one side pins the hope of victory on the enemy's mistakes, then this is a kind of sadness in itself - perhaps neither Cao Cao nor Xie Xuan thought of completely handing over the decision of victory or defeat to those illusory things, but the fact is that the maximum Cheng dΓΉ they can do is only "planning things in people, and success in the sky", not as huge as the maneuver space that Zhou Yu had in the Battle of Chibi.

Therefore, the battle situation has entered a stalemate stage, whether it is the Bingzhou Army or Yuan Shaojun, they are trying to try to accumulate the advantages in their hands, but compared with the Bingzhou Army, Yuan Shaojun because of the initial defeat. The starting point changed from zero to a negative number.

Because of this, although Yuan Shaojun has had a slight upper hand in the recent period of warfare under the activity of Yuwen Tuo, in terms of the overall situation, the people of Bingzhou still seem to be able to control the changes in the situation on the entire battlefield.

"My lord, news has just come from the south. Cao Cao and Liu Biao attacked the Nanyang-Henan line of our Sizhou, Wancheng has been conquered by Cao Ren and Cai Mao, and Luoyang City is also in danger, but hesitating General Sizhou Koji led the army north, the territory is empty, and the situation is not good! ”

Just when the people of Bingzhou threw all the realization to the two sides in the fierce battle, the news from the south made everyone change their faces, and the relevant responsible persons for this matter, Lu Yi, Zhang Ji and others, seemed to be even more panicked and did not know how to deal with it.

"Alright. I didn't think about this matter well, I didn't expect Cao Cao to be so bold and reckless, and Liu Biao had already retreated to the Jingnan region and still had the strength to go north to join Cao Cao. So the most critical question now is not who is responsible for this matter, but how to deal with this matter now, so as not to affect the decisive battle that is currently underway, and not let Yuan Shaojun seize this opportunity to regain the dominance of the war, and if it is necessary to lead troops back to help, if it is not possible to let the troops returning to the reinforcements encounter the enemy's pursuit. ”

"The subordinates are willing to lead the troops back to help!"

Li Shushi's words immediately calmed down the somewhat chaotic and panicked situation a lot. And Lu Yi, Zhang Ji, Ma Teng and others, who were originally responsible for guarding the southern defense line, also got up to ask for battle, and Huang Zhong also stood up at this time. Although he has been away from his hometown for more than a decade, Huang Zhong still has considerable influence in Nanyang and can provide additional help in battle.

"My lord, may I ask what is the attitude of the generals of Jingzhou such as Wen Ping, Huo Jun, and Pan Jun who are guarding Xiangyang, Jiangling and other places."

Cheng Yu was one of the few people who weren't too affected - at least on the surface, and although he frowned like most, he wasn't completely affected by his thinking circuit.

For Cheng Yu's question. Li Shushi's gaze naturally swept to Cheng Yu and Guo Jia, these two of their own intelligence leaders obviously should have a clearer understanding of this, especially Jia Xu, even if Guo Jia has gradually begun to take over part of his work, the well-deserved boss of the entire intelligence system is still Jia Xu. All the information will still be gathered to him.

"Back to the lord. General Wen who guarded Xiangyang and Pan Taishou who guarded the general did not show any desire to surrender to the enemy, and Captain Huo, who was guarding Jingling, repelled several enemy attacks from Jiangxia and burned the enemy's baggage in a counterattack. It was precisely because of Captain Huo's unexpected appearance that the thieves on the Jiangxia side could not meet with Cao Cao and Liu Biao's army. ”

"In other words, most of Nanjun is still under our control?"

"Yes, it's just that all the main and tributary waterways of the Yangtze River are controlled by the enemy, and our army can't do anything about it."

"Is there anything Zhongde can say?"

"The subordinates believed that the most important thing at this time was to allocate men and horses to strengthen the defense of Wuguan and Tongguan Taolinsai to prevent the enemy from entering Guanzhong, and in addition, General Koji could lead his troops to Hanoi and wait for the opportunity to move, so that although the enemy launched suddenly, the impact on our army could be minimized. Although Henan and Nanyang once topped the country in terms of population and wealth, the really most important places for our army today are the Lianghe and Guanzhong regions in Bingzhou, as long as these two places are not greatly affected, our army's roots will not be shaken, and even if it temporarily falls into the disadvantage, it can grit its teeth and persist until the moment of counterattack. ”

"Well, Zhongde's words are indeed old-fashioned, so the righteous way will lead people first, waiting for the opportunity to move, but don't act rashly. Cao Cao's mercenaries are cunning, and they are good at running to cut off people's food routes, so he would rather miss a good opportunity than rush lightly. Guarding the Tong Pass, Xuan Wei guarding the Wu Pass, like the right path, if there is no next order, be sure to keep it as the first priority. ”

"The last general commands!"

"Han Sheng led the troops to Hedong, closely monitored the movements of the enemy army, and when necessary, took Hongnong as the battlefield, ate a part of the enemy army, and let the enemy know that the Bingzhou army was not easy to mess with, if it could make the enemy army cower, then Han Sheng would be the first merit!"

"Lord, just look at the old man's watch!"

"It's just ......" Cheng Yu seemed to have some intention of wanting to say something, but Fa Zheng didn't seem to have many scruples.

"In such a move, our army will have to draw at least 50,000 to 60,000 soldiers or even more, which must be impossible to hide from Yuan Shaojun's ears and eyes, if the enemy sends troops to block and knock down, if the enemy ranks and pursues. Or pursue but not attack, when our army is impatient and the soldiers and horses are tired, and then launch a thunderous strike, it will inevitably echo the south, and even take advantage of the situation to attack the core area of our army. ”

"This ......"

Fazheng's worries are not groundless. In fact, during this period of time, the people of the Bingzhou army have fully appreciated Yuwen Tuo's ability, this Xianbei person who had made the Bingzhou army suffer a lot of losses and was killed by the Bingzhou army several times has now become more mature and cunning in the battles again and again, and it can be said that he has grown into a powerful enemy that the Bingzhou army cannot ignore, so it is impossible to overestimate the possible actions it may take - because it turned out later that such an estimate has never overestimated the opponent, There are even times when the people of the state underestimate their great enemy.

"Hahahaha!!" But in such a gloomy and bleak situation, there was a sudden burst of contrived laughter, which made everyone present be startled at the same time, and also made most of the people present want to find the laughing person and beat him hard.

Who made that laughter so contrived and too cheap!

"Don't laugh, you dead prodigal. If you continue to laugh, believe it or not, I will let you put on women's clothes and laugh in front of Yuan Shaojun's formation for an hour! ”

Well, except for Li Shushi, it is true that only Guo Jia would make such a funny behavior.

Although Lu Bu is also a comic, there is obviously a subtle difference in the direction of the comic between the two people.

So from the point of view of the way of action, these two "kings of comics" under Li Shushi are actually quite easy to distinguish.

"In that case, then please watch my performance. And it just so happened that the 'Shang Fang Sword' that the lord had given him before had not been withdrawn, so the lord didn't have to give the sword to the next time. ”

"Then, let me Guo Fengxiao be on the big stage of the whole world. It's time for another miracle! ”

"I don't know if you're going to put on a Rausch 'miracle moment', but I know if you don't get up again. I'm going to throw you out into the street, don't look at you as an official, but you can't stay with me. ”

"Who! Who would dare to do anything to me! ”

"I said you drunk, why haven't you woken up yet, boy, you're shouting that you're going home for dinner!"

"My mother? I'm not the kind of person who doesn't read much, you can't fool me. My mother and her old man have passed away a long time ago. ”

"Drink! Give me back this set. Ok, good, good! Since you don't get up, then I'll go and decline Miss Chunxiang Pavilion Bao's invitation. ”

"'Miss Bao' is a god thing, and there is such a character in Chunxiang Pavilion who thinks it is a pit when you hear it?"

"It seems to be a newcomer, so it's normal that you don't recognize it, uncle."

"Who said I don't know, Chunxiang Pavilion from the top card to the next person, which one I Guo Fengxiao will not know!"

The drunken guy suddenly slapped the table and stood up like a corpse, frightening the shopkeeper on the side. But think about it carefully, this drunk cat can talk to the shopkeeper without any sense of disobedience for a long time when he is drunk, maybe it is nothing to slap the table or something, anyway, although it is a little weird, but as a hotel shopkeeper, all kinds of drunks have seen a lot.

"Do you need me to call you a ride?"

The store has long passed the closing time, but the shopkeeper found that the customer who came to his senses so easily seemed to be ready to continue the stall, so he hurriedly spoke, which was not only the shopkeeper's concern for the important guests, but also to remind the other party that it was time to go home.

"You're cunning. It's okay, at this time my heart is in turmoil, and if I drink it again, it will hurt my body and mind, and I will probably be nagged by the two beauties at home for a long time after I go home, it's really ......"

Shaking his head with a wry smile, Guo Jia left this wine shop that was not very conspicuous even in the downtown area, and the hotel shopkeeper kindly wanted to help him find a carriage or something as a means of transportation, but Guo Jia declined the boss's kindness, maybe for him now, walking in the cold wind may also be a good experience.

It's a pity that the hotel shopkeeper doesn't think so, after all, judging from the tone and behavior of this person just now, it is indeed very likely that he is a big official, if something goes wrong, then the small shop he relies on for a living can only close down, and even he himself is afraid that he will die in the world.

In this way, the hotel keeper can only send out his own work. Follow Guo Jia all the way to the end - from a certain point of view, the young man of this wine shop is even more unlucky, because he has not followed the target for long, he was caught by the city guard soldiers patrolling here, if Guo Jia could still distinguish the immature face of this wine shop boy, maybe the hotel shopkeeper should go to the county jail the next day to get his work back. Or just as unlucky to stay in there for a day or two.

"What a dream."

Whether it is the shopkeeper of the wine shop or the work of the wine shop, it is just a small episode, although it is still a little interesting, but for Guo Jia it is just an episode, and it was left behind in a blink of an eye.

"But why do I have such dreams at such a time? Isn't it true that as the lord said, 'there are thoughts in the day and dreams in the night'? Or is it a sign of something, as those who always like to say something godly babble? ”

It seems that Guo Jia cares more about the dream that still feels very real in retrospect than the fact that he was drunk. Even if the two ladies of the family were angry at his behavior. But for the time being, I can't take into account their feelings.

I don't know when, Guo Jia returned to his study, and there were a few more thick pieces of paper in his hand.

Maybe it was because he saw that his husband had entered the state of work, whether it was Guo Jia's original wife Wang or the lively and active little girl Qiao Ying, they didn't bother anymore, one went to prepare a delicious supper for her husband, while the other was rolling around on his bed with the plush toys given by his sister, and a flush appeared on his face from time to time.

Unlike being the eldest sister who had to carry so many things that she had to give up too much, as a younger sister, Qiao Ying enjoyed more of her childhood than her sister. Even if her life is also full of upheavals, but for this little Lori. Although it is true that life is a little hard at some times, it is better to think of it as a difficult trip.

It can also be said that compared to Qiao Yan, who is the eldest sister so she has been more strict and introverted in her personality, Qiao Ying belongs to a sunny girl who doesn't have many worries, and her ability to adjust her mentality is naturally very good without too much pressure.

Probably this is another reason why Guo Jia is more inclined to choose his sister, at least Qiao Ying's smile can bring him more happiness. Although Qiao Yan's restrained feelings are also very precious, Guo Jia, who is a prodigal son, is still more willing to make his life easier and more lively under the condition of choice, especially when he still chooses one of the two.

To talk about the way of running a family and commanding people. His original partner Wang is already enough to take on it, but there is no need for another person to share power, which may not only cause internal strife in the family, but also the girl who has lost power will feel upset.

"Huh? Why did I unconsciously work so late? It's rare to be lazy today, and I'm going to have a good drink! What a misfortune! Lord, why can't you hear my call to you, I don't ask for much, just double my salary. ”

Guo Jia, who looked embarrassed, walked out of his study with tired steps, while walking, muttering something in his mouth, and seemed to be able to see some white things like mochi coming out of his mouth, stretching a big lazy waist very unimaged, and then swaying left and right, jumping up and down, looking at the "new world" that was a little unfamiliar from this perspective.

As a result, the prodigal son Guo Jia died at the age of ......

"Where did the narrator come from, Lao Tzu is not dead yet!"

A thousand coffee tables of the mind were overturned in one go, and a certain prodigal son suddenly turned into a famous abstract painting.

However, he quickly calmed down again, and the corners of his mouth showed a helpless wry smile.

Looking back at the study that had fallen into darkness, Guo Jia's heart was full of complicated feelings - he used to be a frivolous teenager with higher ambitions than the sky, and he felt that his intelligence was rarely matched by anyone in the world, even if there were many outstanding people such as Xun Wenruo and Xi Zhicai among his peers from Yingchuan, Guo Jia still felt that he was one of the best, and even in some aspects, he even felt that he was a well-deserved No.1.

Unfortunately, the arrogant boy soon fell in front of the door of reality.

Yuan Shao seemed to be a good lord, he was humble and courteous, and he always seemed to be so decently dealing with those who were talented, and his words and deeds reflected the good education he had received as a child of a large family.

However, Guo Jia soon realized that those beautiful things were all things that Yuan Shao put on the table, a mask he used to attract heroes from all walks of life, and a tool for him to improve his evaluation in Shilin. And in reality?

Thinking of the problems he contracted when he was in Yuan Shao's place, Guo Jia is now indifferent to that period, but deep down in his heart, he still remembers those days deeply.

When the boss said that there was a newcomer to Chunxiang Pavilion before, Guo Jia was still very stubborn, in fact, he knew very well in his heart that in the past two years, he basically didn't have the time to set foot in that place, and only occasionally took time to go to the small wine shop to experience the past life.

"Do I hate this life, or do I look forward to it......"

Looking at the bright moon in the distance, Guo Jia thought about it and finally decided to spend the night in a certain Lori's room.

Well, Guo Langzi said that he was still very disciplined and would not attack such a small Lori, but he just accepted the help of the lord Xianbei and realized the many benefits of sleeping with Lori in his arms.

Whether you believe it or not, a prodigal son believed it anyway.
