Chapter 632: Being smart is mistaken by being smart
They said that it was the lord who told them to surrender before he died, and even Pound, who died in battle, chose to kill himself in desperation. ”
As soon as these words came out, the crowd was in an uproar.
Cao Pi's head buzzed, he temporarily lost his ability to think, and his face suddenly turned pale.
Yang Xiu was overjoyed at first, and almost had to cater to Guo Jia's words. But at a glance, he saw that although Guo Jia was also angry, he had no intention of asking guilt, his eyes rolled, and he said tentatively: "What the military advisor means ...... meant"
"Hmph! This is Shi Xin's ploy, to find a ridiculous excuse to deceive people's minds and shake our military morale through the mouths of these people, isn't the ultimate goal to swallow up our 150,000 troops?"
Speaking of this, Guo Jia became even more excited, accidentally pulled the internal injury, and coughed loudly.
Yang Xiu sighed, things really didn't go so smoothly. Guo Jia and the lord have too deep grievances, even if Cao Ren and others say the truth, or even explain face-to-face, Guo Jia will not believe it anymore.
Hearing this, Cao Pi breathed a sigh of relief, sat up straight and said: "What the military advisor said is extremely reasonable, what should we do now?"
Since Guo Jia was clever but was mistaken by cleverness, he believed that Shi Xin killed Cao Cao with treacherous tricks, which means that he was on the same front as himself and could be used for his own purposes.
Guo Jia finally stopped coughing, but his face turned red, and he slowed down for a while before he said slowly:
"Now there is only one way to go, I heard that Li Ru and others have accepted Wen Ruo and Gongda's 50,000 army, and I believe they will not refuse us. We shouldn't have entered Xiangyang, but switched to Sima Yi. To tell the truth, I still don't believe that the two of them will really take refuge in Sima Yi, and then find a way to get in touch with them, secretly develop their strength, and win over or divide the people within him, it is not impossible to deal with Shi Xin and Sima Yi and bring them back to life!"
This idea coincided with Cao Pi, Cao Pi slapped his thigh and said continuously: "Clever plan, wonderful plan!"
The generals had reached the point of desperation, so they had no choice but to echo loudly.
Suddenly, a clear voice said out of place: "Military Division, the two generals Cao Ren and Xu Chudianwei have always been my father's confidants, and their words cannot be completely denied, I think there must be something strange in it, and it needs to be clarified." ”
As he spoke, Cao Zhi shook his head and walked out.
When the generals heard this, they all felt that there was some truth in the discussion.
Cao Pi was shocked into a cold sweat and shouted: "Zijian, Hugh is talking nonsense, go down quickly!"
Cao Zhi shook his head like a rattle, but took a step forward, trying to persuade Cao Pi, "Big brother, these words are the conclusions I came to after analyzing them for a long time, you can listen to ......"
"I don't listen, Ziwen, pull your second brother down!"
Cao Zhang walked out quickly, grabbed Cao Zhi's arm, said good things in his mouth, and pulled Cao Zhi out half-forcedly.
He is upright by nature, and he usually has the best relationship with his second brother Cao Zhi, who treats people kindly, but there is a certain distance from his eldest brother Cao Pi. But this is the time to discuss important military affairs, and Cao Zhi's nerdy personality is not tolerated, once Cao Pi is angered, it is not a joke.
Therefore, dragging Cao Zhi out is also a way to save him.
Without Cao Zhi making trouble, there was a shout and scolding from Shi Xin and Cao Ren in the military tent. Then Guo Jia suggested that everyone present sign a letter of commitment, indicating that they would still swear to death after arriving in Sima Yi's camp
Loyal to Cao Pi, otherwise the sky will thunder and split, and it will not be good to die.
The letter of commitment was naturally kept by Cao Pi, which was his magic weapon to control the generals and choke their lifeline.
At the same time, he also admired Guo Jia's meticulous thinking.
Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan are clan generals, and they signed without saying a word, and the others were loyal, but the current situation is also difficult to ride a tiger, and they have all signed.
Cao Pi's old trick was repeated, tears were rampant, and he vowed that one day he would slash his enemy Shi Xin to comfort Cao Cao's spirit in the sky. This is both true and false, the true one always has the world in his heart, killing Shi Xin is the way to go, and the fake one also knows that Shi Xin is not the real enemy who killed his father.
Guo Jia and others shared the same hatred, and at the same time, they were also moved by Cao Pi's filial piety, and finally officially worshiped the lord.
"My lord, military advisor, it's past time at this time. We should not leave the barracks for too long, please plan the next plan of action as soon as possible. Zhang Liao said in a deep voice.
Yang Xiu nodded secretly, and praised in his heart: Zhang Liao is worthy of being the head of the five good generals, and he has not slackened at all. It was only a quarter of an hour before and after, and I was in a hurry to go back.
Although Cao Pi was reluctant to give up the 100,000 army, in order to stabilize Shi Xin, he had to implement the plan head-on and delay time: "Okay, come here, take the military map!"
There was a sound outside the tent, followed by the footsteps of the guards running away.
Zhang Liao frowned, since he had convened a military meeting of the generals, why hadn't he even prepared a map? But thinking of Cao Pi's lack of experience, he was probably out of order, so he had to hold back and not say anything, thinking that he could only find an opportunity to prompt him in the future.
At this time, Cao Zhang walked in alone, but he didn't see Cao Zhi.
Yang Xiu was curious: "The third son, what about the second son?"
"Second brother, he...... Alas, I still insisted on my opinion, saying that I wanted to be alone. ”
Everyone knows Cao Zhi's character, although he is kind, but he has a bullish temper, and he doesn't think much about it at the moment.
The guards had been gone for a long time, and the generals had waited impatiently before they were late.
Cao Pi pretended to reprimand him a few words and let him go.
Before the map could be unfolded, there was a sudden commotion outside the tent, and someone shouted: "Oh no, Shi Xin has been killed! General Zhang He has been caught!"
The generals were taken aback, and their faces changed.
By the time the big tent came out, there was already a mess outside. Without the control of the generals, the soldiers rushed around like headless flies.
Not long after, a defeated army returned to the camp to report that Zhang He was indeed caught.
It turned out that Shi Xin handed over all the military power to Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu, and surrounded the 100,000 troops behind Cao's army in the dark.
In order to achieve the maximum effect of the raid, Zhuge Liang even formulated a plan to capture Zhang He alive, so that Zhen Mi and Zhang Ning, the fastest in the camp, flew into the air and waited for the opportunity.
At this time, Zhang He was kept in the dark, because he was disturbed by the military reports pouring in from all directions. On the one hand, he sent someone to inform Cao Pi, and on the other hand, he rode around to stabilize the morale of the army.
Zhen Mi and Zhang Ning were already hidden in the night sky, and after calculating the position, they fell from the sky, and after an afterimage, Zhang He's throat was held against the tip of the lily umbrella, and Zhang Ning controlled the water element, flying into the air while blocking long-range attacks from the ground.
The process went smoothly, and the two of them captured Zhang He back to their main formation.
Shi Xin had already led Tong Yuan and Li Yan to wait for a long time, Zhen Mi put Zhang He down, and turned around with Zhang Ning to kill.
Shi Xin took Zhang He's hand and muttered, "General Zhang, as early as the battle of Yecheng, I expressed my regret to the three sons of the Yuan family. Three of the four court pillars in Hebei have been in my camp, and I can't imagine that Cao Gong will make a hindrance and rob you, which makes me depressed for a long time. As the saying goes, good birds choose trees to perch, and good generals choose their masters, and this time they can't miss the general. ”
Zhang Tietie's face was blue, "You have harmed my two generations of lords, and you can't say anything as you want." Kill me!"
At this time, Tong Yuan came over and reprimanded: "Zhang He, the lord of the mansion is kind-hearted, which time was not Yuan Shao and Cao Cao who started the war first? Besides, on the battlefield, either you die or I die, should we be captured?"
"My lord?" Zhang He was taken aback, and looked at Tong Yuan with staring eyes, "Senior, when I was in Jizhou, Yuan Gong wooed you three or four times, and gave you countless jewels and wealth, but I couldn't get you a word of "lord", but now it's ......."
Tong Yuan puffed up his chest and said loudly: "Yes, the lord is eloquent and strategic, dedicated to the people, and takes it as his responsibility to end the troubled times as soon as possible." How can such a capable person be compared to a despicable villain who threatens me with Yu Zhenling, I am convinced by this sentence of "lord"!"
Li Yan also advised: "Those who know the times are Junjie, and now the three sons and former colleagues are serving under the main account, why should you be stubborn?"
Zhang He was still hesitant.
Shi Xin knew what he was worried about, it was nothing more than the cause of Cao Cao's death.
"General Zhang, you have all been deceived by Cao Pi, Cao Gong was not killed by me!"
At the moment, he roughly talked about what happened that day, which made Zhang He stunned, and finally said: "If General Zhang still doesn't believe it, you can go to our army for a while, and then see Cao Ren and the other three, and the truth will naturally be revealed." ”
was coerced, Zhang He had to agree if he didn't agree, not to mention that he was indeed a little shaken in his heart.
Shi Xin was not in a hurry, and after a few words of persuasion, he sent two Eagle Brothers to arrange him in the rear, and good wine and meat were served.
At this time, the front is already full of murder, and as far as the eye can see, you can understand the battle situation of the two sides through the direction of the movement of the torches.
The leaderless Cao army had no rules to speak of, and the torches were scattered, but there was generally a direction of movement, that is, the main formation of Cao Pi in front.
And Shi Xin's generals from all walks of life led their respective teams to kill in all directions. The two special forces of the Five Elements Battalion and the Trap Camp were like two sharp knives, galloping back and forth in the enemy formation, cutting their camp into smaller and more scattered formations.
This was a major battle with a total of 300,000 troops, and it was also the first time that Shi Xin had truly seen Zhou Yu's commanding talent. Compared with Xu Rong, who seeks victory in stability and is all-encompassing, Zhou Yu's vision is more far-sighted, and he truly combines tactics and strategy perfectly.
In short, Xu Rong will use all his capabilities and resources from a military point of view to win a battle. And Zhou Yu not only wants to win, but also to win easily, win beautifully, and after winning, he can bring the greatest political benefits to the lord.
This is reflected in the fact that if you can not do it, you will not do it, and if you can not kill the enemy, you will not kill the enemy. It was for this reason that the trapping camp and the Five Elements Battalion divided the enemy and further disintegrated their morale.
This requires not only accurate political vision and strategic intelligence, but also close relationships with generals and extraordinary personal charisma, which cannot be done by Xu Rong, who is a man of a man and has an upright personality.
