Sima Fuqiang and Huang Zhi glanced at each other across Zhang Wei, why didn't they expect that the most famous strategy of the Three Kingdoms was nothing more than the "empty city plan". Although there is a lot of controversy about whether Zhuge Liang really used the "Empty City Plan", and that period of history is not examinable, the "Empty City Plan", as a model of the battle of wits between Kong Ming and Zhongda in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", has been talked about by people for thousands of years.

According to Sima Fuqiang, as early as the Spring and Autumn Period in 666 BC, Zheng Guo's Shangqing Shu Zhan had used this strategy to retreat from the Chu army, and there were more or less similar cases in subsequent dynasties. Regardless of whether this plan will be discovered by the rebels of Weixian County, it is undoubtedly the most suitable strategy for Dongwei Pass at the moment, even if it is to delay it for as long as possible.

"If there is such a thing in the future, please take the initiative to make some suggestions, don't keep it in your heart." Sima Fuqiang complained. He was dissatisfied that Zhang Wei didn't say it until now, so that he and Huang Zhi stayed up all night and didn't sleep well.

"This ...... Captain, you haven't consulted anyone yet. I thought you two were ready. Zhang Wei was angry.

In his opinion, the "empty city plan", as one of the 36 strategies, can be described as a household name. Such a simple question should not be a problem for the captain and Huang Zhi, and these two people really didn't discuss this matter with their teammates from beginning to end, so they knew that they still had insomnia......

Now that they have an idea, they no longer hesitate, and immediately consider the "empty city plan" and investigate the details of the implementation on the spot.

There are 20 standing guards on the wall of Dongwei Pass, of which 10 are fixed posts at the head of the wall, 4 are mobile sentinels, and 6 are guarding the tower. In other words, as long as they ensure that there are such a large number of people at the outpost on the wall, the rebels in Weixian will have no way of judging how many troops are guarding the pass.

The number of town guards sent by Donghai Town is enough to be 100 people, and even if Donggao Pass needs to divide 40 of them, the remaining 60 people are enough to stand guard on the wall in three shifts.

By asking Li Wei, Huang Zhi learned that the Dongzhou forces did not have such a thing as a "telescope" or "clairvoyant" in the real world. In other words, unless a character like Sima Fuqiang can increase the visual distance through skills, normal people can only vaguely see the banner displayed at the opposite level like Huang Zhi, but cannot see the defenders on the wall clearly. And even Sima Fuqiang couldn't see the faces of the soldiers on the wall of Weidong Guan from such a distance.

"Will the rebels of Pingwei County send a horse to spy on Dongwei Pass?" Sima Fuqiang asked.

Li Wei looked at Huang Zhi's face and was quite polite to the newly promoted guerrilla general, "Unless you plan to go to war, no one will do such a stupid thing, and the winch crossbow on the wall is not vegetarian." ”

In other words, the "empty city plan" is not only feasible, but as long as the secrecy is done well, it can even be concealed for a long time until they think of other countermeasures.

So in this way, they still lack one thing to be foolproof, and after a confrontation with the captain, Huang Zhi came forward to find Li Wei again, "General Li, although our Donghai Town can't afford to pay your army's food and salary, can you sell us the banner at the head of this city?" By the way, you also need to buy one or twenty sets of standard armor for officers and soldiers. ”

Thinking of the gift list in his arms, it was something that he couldn't compare to the money he had been guarding Dongweiguan for a year, how could Li Wei refuse Huang Zhi's such a simple "small" request. "Brother Shixin laughed, just these things, why bother you to spend money. It is useless for us to come to these flags, and since you are useful, keep them. As for the one or twenty sets of armor, Li is the master to send you. ”

Li Wei is just a generous public servant, and he gave these things to the East China Sea team. The banner on the wall is indeed worthless, and the armor of ordinary soldiers is not worth a few dollars, compared to Huang Zhi's "filial piety", if these things can be exchanged for personal favors, it will be more cost-effective.

Seeing that the soldiers and horses away from the state capital are gradually moving away, and the direction of Weidongguan knows nothing about it, as always, the confrontation that has been calm in the past continues, the "empty city plan" has been initially successful, and the next thing is to see how long they can keep it secret.

It was the fourth day, and the people in the dream were almost ready to return to the town, after all, it would be two full days to go. If they had to wait until Zhao Meng arrived at Dongwei Pass with fifty town guard foot soldiers, it would definitely be too late to rush back to the town before the seventh night, so they decided to return early tomorrow morning.

After tirelessly explaining to Wu Qiang the precautions for setting up an empty city in Dongwei Pass, Sima Fuqiang promoted his rank to the rank of Imperial Lieutenant from the eighth grade, and he was responsible for guarding Dongwei Pass. This is also the benefit brought by Sima Fuqiang's own official promotion to half a level, and the people in his dreams in the East China Sea have already been promoted by him by half a level.

At this time, the job titles of each person remain the same, but the job titles have changed. The last page of Tokai Chronicles shows the changed level.

Sima Fuqiang, the county commander of Donghai Town, was awarded a guerrilla general from the five grades.

Huang Zhi, Donghai Town County, from the six products, awarded Tongyilang.

Zhang Wei, the county lieutenant of Donghai Town, from the sixth grade, was awarded the lieutenant of Zhenwei.

Li Sha, the governor of Donghai Town, from the seventh grade, awarded Chaosanlang.

Huang Ying, the main book of Donghai Town, from the seventh product, awarded Xuanyilang.

Xiaofeng, Wanyue, Wuyang, military attache of Donghai Town, Zheng Bapin, awarded Xuanjie Lieutenant.

Shui Xuan, a civil official of Donghai Town, is a nine-year-old product, and is awarded to Confucianism Linlang.

Mu Qing, a civil official of Donghai Town, from Jiupin, awarded Wen Linlang.

Wu Qiang, the military attache of Donghai Town, from the eighth grade, was awarded the imperial insult captain.

Zhao Meng, the military attache of Donghai Town, from Jiupin, was awarded the captain of Rong.

As for Shui Xuan, Mu Qing and Zhao Meng, it's not that there is no way to promote them by half a level, but Sima Fuqiang doesn't intend to let them be promoted so unexplained, so he has to find a legitimate opportunity to promulgate it, which can be regarded as a recognition of the dedication of these aborigines and make them grateful to Dade. Moreover, after the official is promoted to half a level, there are two more vacancies in the official list, and two additional elders can be considered as official officials of Donghai Town. We'll talk about it when we get back to town.

In any case, the East China Sea team was finally able to survive the crisis of open borders.
