Chapter 12 Together
"It's... The second variation of the Five Fowl Opera? ”
Looking at Dong Bai's plump slender arms, although Zhou Ping felt a little surprised, it was reasonable to think about it carefully, Dong Bai had stayed in the tiger shape for a long time, and it was time to make some progress.
However, Dong Bai's appearance is much better than Zhou Ping imagined, at least she doesn't have to be stuck in the half-human and half-tiger appearance for a long time like she did when she first cultivated the Five Fowl Opera.
There are five forms of tiger, bird, bear, deer, and ape, and the half-human and half-tiger can still be seen as a cat lady, but other forms, such as bear people and ape people, if they are really stuck in that form, it will be really difficult to accept for a while - but if you think about it, it doesn't seem difficult to accept.
"Well, not bad!"
Dong Bai stretched his arms, after all, he was a woman, and compared to his plush arms, he still looked better with such white and plump wings.
"...... in the Beast Camp"
Halfway through the words, it was Zhou Ping who took the initiative to stop, after all, this is Gongsun Yuan's territory, not to mention that the wall has ears, maybe the peddlers and pawns who passed by just now are Gongsun Yuan's eyes and ears, this kind of matter involving confidentiality, it is better to discuss it in private.
“…… Let's go inside. ”
Dong Bai also understood, and the two of them walked into the county guard mansion of Taiyuan County one after the other.
……
411
Judging from the few exchanges between Zhou Ping and Gongsun Yuan, this person is still quite good at engaging in polite things, and it seems that Yuan Shao is indeed a big pimple in Gongsun Yuan's heart.
"According to our spies, the number of troops they sent this time is not much, at most there are more than 1,000 people, but the flags are very complicated, the frustration flag should be frustrated, the Tian flag is Tian Feng, as for the surname Zhang and Gao, it should be Zhang Jaw and Gao Lan.
"And the direction of their troops, if they didn't pretend to be suspicious, it should be the three northern counties, that is, Wuyuan, Shuofang, and Yanmen, where the Southern Xiongnu are located."
Looking at the map, Gongsun Yuan analyzed it honestly, and Zhou Ping nodded while listening, although it has been more than two years since he crossed over, and his subordinates also have their own forces, but this kind of formal and serious military discussion is indeed the first time to participate - the previous princes discussed Dong is not counted, although those people seem to be regular, but everyone is talking about the car and can't learn anything useful.
"Two strategists, two generals, plus a thousand soldiers, but they want to capture the three counties of the Southern Xiongnu, Mr. Gongsun, do you think the odds are good?"
The Southern Xiongnu are not as good as those landlords in Hedong who do not have military generals and strategists, and it is simply a fantasy that the other party will disarm and surrender if they put a few spells, and in the case that the other party also has cultivators, Zhou Ping does not think that they have any chance of winning this time.
"There is no chance of victory, so I think that they went to the Southern Xiongnu this time, not to send troops to capture, but to surrender and contact."
“…… Surrender Liaison ......"
Zhou Ping repeated, the more he thought about it, the more it made sense, the military generals and strategists on the ordinary battlefield still need the assistance of soldiers, but if you show your wrists, you only need the generals and strategists to take action.
"Then if you say that, wouldn't Leping City's defense be very empty?"
Under Gongsun Yuan's clear analysis, Zhou Ping's thinking was also smoothed a lot, and he drew inferences from others. Yuan Shao's situation Zhou Ping also knows that now Yuan Shao is fighting with Gongsun Chan in the north, and it is not easy to open up a new battle line with the state, and listening to Gongsun Yuan's analysis, the lineup of the other party's strategists and generals to fight against the Southern Xiongnu is already quite luxurious.
"Having said that, but Leping is not a very important town, Taihang Eight Paths, there are eight roads from Jizhou to Bingzhou, Leping is just one of these eight paths, and if they succeed in recruiting the Southern Xiongnu, the entire northern part of Bingzhou will fall into their control, they can invade the south at will, and one less Leping will not cause them too much trouble."
"That's ......"
"And according to my estimate, if they succeed in going north, the first target of their southward journey after that should be here."
Gongsun Yuan's finger was raised high, and then it landed heavily on a place on the map that had been subconsciously ignored by Zhou Ping.
"Westriver County?"
"That's right, now Xihe County is Yu Dabao's territory, that Yu Dabao, you know, is just an ordinary person with a vacuum, and his subordinates are also entangled in some rabble, in the face of the joint offensive of the Southern Xiongnu and Yuan Shao, they will definitely not be able to hold this Xihe County."
"It does ......"
Zhou Ping nodded quite solemnly. Although this Xihe County is often harassed by the Qianghu and the Xiongnu, the population is sparse, and the territory is not rich, but at this time, its geographical location is very important, if Xihe County falls into the hands of Yuan Shao, Hedong County will instantly become the front line from the rear, and facing Yuan Shao's troops, Zhou Pingyuan is far from prepared.
“…… So we ...... Go talk to Yu Dabao? ”
"Actually, that's the real purpose of my invitation to the meeting."
"Alas...... Then go for it......"
When it comes to Yu Dabao, Zhou Ping's mood is always a little complicated, he has no malice and vigilance towards Dabao, but on the other hand, Yu Dabao's attitude towards himself has always been very bad, even if there is a layer of relationship with Hua Tuo, Yu Dabao has never given Zhou Ping any good face.
……
"It seems that this time, we are going to cooperate with Zhou Ping and Gongsun Yuan......"
It was not only Zhou Ping and Gongsun Yuan who were engaged in military discussions, at the same time that the two were talking about Xihe, the actual controllers of Xihe County, Sima and his son, who were parachuted in from the airborne road, were also conducting a military discussion.
It's just that compared to the attitude of Zhou Ping and Sun Yuan who are about to leave and wary of each other, the atmosphere on the Sima family's side is much more frank and harmonious, Sima Shi and Sima Yi sit opposite each other, and Sima Zhao, who knows that his ability is not as good as his father and brother, stands aside, with a learning attitude.
"That's how things are in the world, don't worry about it."
Sima Yi persuaded, although he is still young, but his thoughts are very accessible, now their main goal is to prevent Yuan Shao from entering the state and prevent Yuan Shao's power from becoming strong too early, under this big goal, Zhou Ping and Gongsun Yuan are just small things, and Sima Yi can still figure it out because of the big truth.
"It's not that I'm nostalgic, it's just that I just think it's really interesting to be separated and combined."
"It's really interesting, I don't know if Zhou Ping and Gongsun Yuan will be scared when they see us here!"
Sima Zhao on the side accosted him, and he also compared a dislocated chin grimace by the way, but after seeing the same serious expressions of his father and brother, he hurriedly withdrew his grimace.
"But then again, Zhao'er has a point, those two are very wary of our family, and we really have to plan how to meet."
"Huh?"
Sima Zhao was a little stunned, not that he didn't reflect why he was praised, but Sima Yi's praise was really rare for him.
