Chapter 217: Scheming, answering from the city

Early in the morning of the second day, Xun You ordered the army to march, he had 50,000 troops in his hands, and the march was naturally extremely procrastinating, half an hour later, Xun You took Guan Hai and his headquarters of 3,000 people to set off first, two hours later, Xia Xiangcheng appeared in the eyes of everyone.

Under the head of the city, the battlefield after yesterday's battle has not been cleaned up, the mottled blood stains are shocking, the defenders of the city are still busy, on the edge of the Ru wall, a team of soldiers are standing there in high spirits, their eyes are still a little distracted, Xun You's army has been marching to the front, the soldiers at the head of the city can be regarded as reacting, and the people with organic spirits immediately ran back to report the news.

"Military division, the front is Xiaxiang City, the vanguard under Liu Xuan's account is already in the city, and there are about 5,000 soldiers, as for the leading generals, the last general is incompetent, and I still don't know." Xun You went first, Wu Anguo begged to follow, personally selected more than 100 guards as scouts, and first inquired about the news outside the city, Xun You just arrived, and he hurriedly stepped forward to report.

Xun You raised his head, glanced at the city in the distance, where there was only a large banner of Chinese characters swaying in the wind, and he was a little clear in his heart, and said to Wu Anguo on the ground: "Victory or defeat on the battlefield is common for soldiers, if the general can't let go of the knot, how dare you let the general lead the troops again?" The other party has completely anticipated everything, and naturally there will not be many traces for us to know in detail. ”

"Bingyuan, go to the city to call the battle, and let the other party come forward to answer." Xun You turned his head, looked at Guan Hai behind him, and said indifferently.

Over the years, Guan Hai and other pure generals have been ordered by Zhuge Jin to stay in Qingzhou Academy for a while, and his temperament has become more and more calm.

"Who in the city is in charge? My military advisor has arrived, do you dare to come forward to meet me? Guan Hai's voice was very loud, and the hearts of the soldiers on the city who were nervously staring at the situation under the city were even tighter, and the hand holding the weapon couldn't help but tremble.

"Why don't you dare, I'm about to see it." When the soldier didn't know how to answer, a figure in a long robe hurriedly appeared at the head of the city, looked at Guan Hai, who was riding alone outside the city, spoke loudly, and then ordered Zhang Ying to prepare the army out of the city.

Before the war started, not to be cowardly, the ancients paid attention to such an idea, not only against each other, but even the fighting generals were also from this, the two armies were at war, and few directly hung up the war-free card, because in this way, it was a fatal blow to morale, not to mention that between the warriors, they were not allowed to have cowardice, and what they yearned for was to move forward bravely.

"Squeak ......" at the gate of the city of the lower phase, the heavy city gate opens slowly and firmly, the surrounding terrain is undulating, there is no river passing here, so there is no moat outside the city, the city gate is the ultimate guarantee of the city, compared to those cities with natural barriers, the city gate of the lower phase appears thick and heavy.

At the gate of the city, a man dressed as a scribe in a long robe walked in the front, and the army behind him followed closely. Xun You didn't stop, only Guan Hai followed closely around him, glanced at the other side, smiled faintly, and bowed his hand slightly to the other side, and said: "No, the military division under the Qingzhou pastoral tent, Xun You's grass character Gongda." ”

"It's been famous for a long time, but I don't know, under the name, is it a match?" Zhang Hong's side, too, followed Zhang Ying, the four of them were close, and they talked about it before the battle, looking at the appearance of the two, it seems that they are friends who have not seen each other for many years, where is there tension?

"Mr. Zigang is really a wonderful person, a fire before, but it burned out a famous name, but the water and fire are ruthless, after all, there is no distinction between the enemy and me." Xun You didn't answer Zhang Hong's words, but just began to praise the other party, the topic changed, and the tone was indifferently sarcastic about Zhang Hong's previous strategy, but his attitude was serious, if it weren't for the two of them being on the enemy side, no one would think that Xun You was sarcastic about Zhang Hong, and between the words, the edge was revealed.

"Awards, awards, battles, it is dangerous and abnormal, there are accidents all the time, where there is a winning game, a certain talent, but it is just a slight advantage." didn't dodge, didn't evade, even when he heard the abnormal movement in the formation of the soldiers behind him, Zhang Hong still admitted it calmly, and in his tone, a faint confidence lingered in it.

Confidence? It is confidence, not self-satisfaction, or pride, and this alone is enough for Xun You to look up to him.

"Since Mr. can see it clearly, don't you know what kind of character Yuan Shu is? The covenant with him is tantamount to seeking skin with the tiger, but it is not very clear, why did Liu Miao abandon my lord and turn to Yuan Shu, did he forget, who forced him back then to have no way? If it wasn't for my father-in-law back then, how could there still be Liu Xuan's disciples at this time? Xun You's face looked as always, a faint smile spread all over his face, and a few short words made Zhang Ying's brows tremble beside Zhang Hong, and his face was as black as carbon.

"Hahaha......" The two did not suppress their voices when they talked, and when Xun You spoke, he deliberately raised his voice by a level, behind Zhang Hong, many people were also puzzled after listening to it, among them, most of them were Yangzhou children who had followed Liu Yu in their early years, and they suddenly had a lot of identification with Xun You's words, and the buzz became chaotic, and at this moment, Zhang Hong, who had not moved, suddenly laughed out loud.

"Don't you think it's funny when you say that?" Zhang Hong suddenly stopped laughing, looked at Xun Yu with sharp eyes, and at the corner of his mouth, a touch of mockery rippled out: "Yuan Shu and his ilk are just dogs and wolves in the mountains and forests, relying on many people to bite indiscriminately, although it is troublesome, but not to be afraid, to that Zhuge Jin, as a concubine of the Han Dynasty, does not want to serve the country, but comes to attack the courtiers, I don't know what kind of loyal ministers?" The ambition of its people, it is difficult to satisfy, Qingzhou alone is still dissatisfied, to this day, most of Xuzhou has been captured by it, Mount Tai, Lu country, Pei country and other places, which place is Qingzhou territory? From a certain point of view, such ambition is the most important thing to pay attention to. ”

"Hehe......" Xun You was not annoyed, but the smile on his face was even more obvious: "This is wrong." Throughout the ages, it is human nature for literati to seek military and military generals, such as the Han dynasty is declining today, how can I support the government with the power of my lord alone? Naturally, you have to strengthen yourself first, and then you can contribute to the country, and you don't hear it, Yangzhou Liu Miao is a relative of the Han family, and he has never seen the West to welcome the Son of Heaven and help the Han family, I don't know what to say, do you think so? ”

"Actually, otherwise, under Zhuge Jin's account, Wenchen fierce generals are countless, powerful, I don't know how much stronger than Cao Cao in Chang'an City, if he wants to be a court, I am afraid that no one can stop him, but Yangzhou Mu is different, Yangzhou is poor, there are few outstanding people, how can it be compared to Zhuge Jin? Now Liu Zhoumu wants to contribute to the country, Xuzhou is the rear, if Zhuge Jin is willing to give up Xuzhou, how can you and I say that the war is coming? Even verbally, Zhang Hong didn't want to let Xun Yu go down, and said like a scoundrel. At this time, he had to admit in his heart that in terms of talent alone, Xun You did have his superiority.

"Not only is it to contribute to the country, but also want to persuade Liu Zhoumu, although Xuzhou is good, but it is not a place for him to stay for a long time, don't be taken advantage of by Yuan Shu and attack Quyang, I am afraid that the world is big, and there is no place for it." Xun You's words were just a reason to disrupt the morale of Liu Xuan's subordinates, and sure enough, after his voice lagged behind, the opposite array suddenly became chaotic, and the buzzing sound was non-stop.

Since Yuan Shu won Yuzhou, there has not been a day when he does not want to include Yangzhou in the territory, many times to Liu Xiang to move troops to persecute, only to obtain the richest Huainan land in Yangzhou, Liu Xuan's subordinates of Yangzhou, these Yangzhou children, naturally know a lot about this matter, Xun You's words hit their hearts at once, where Liu Xiang went, they don't want to think about it in their hearts, once Xun You's words come true, then they, where should they go? You must know that in this life, all their relatives and children are in Yangzhou, if they can't get it back, what are they fighting here for?

"Hmph." Zhang Hong's face was a little dark, but he admired him very much in his heart, this kind of talent for provoking trouble was exactly what he lacked, Xun You's words, he could naturally see through a lot, Liu Xuan is not a successful person, even if he is not swallowed by Yuan Shu, he will not go long, if not, why is he held hostage by his family and works for him.

"Words are not speculative, then I have to see the truth on the battle array, if you have wisdom, but to take the city is, above the city, a certain wine for you." As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Hong ignored Xun You, turned around and drove the horse away.

"Oh, oh......" The three thousand men and horses brought by Xun You saw Zhang Hong retreating, and they roared very smartly, beating the morale of the opposite side to pieces, and returned to the city in embarrassment.

After collecting the troops for the time being, Xun You didn't feel much relaxed, but his face became more and more dignified, this Zhang Hong, is really a difficult character, after sighing, his heart is full of excitement, he has not met such a talented opponent for a long time......

At noon, the main force of the rear army finally rushed over, because the camp had been prepared in advance, and it was quickly settled.

The movement outside the city is naturally known in the city, and the 50,000 army is not a small number, which makes the soldiers in the city feel tight, however, to Zhang Hong's surprise, Xun You did not start attacking immediately after the arrival of the army, not only that, but also for three consecutive days, Zhang Hong's original confident heart was suddenly suspended.

"Military division, the news has come from Guangling, Zhang Hong is the patriarch of the Zhang clan, this time he is forced to be helpless, the mastermind is Tao Qian, this strategy was used on Zhang Zhao once, more than 100 members of the Zhang clan were guarded, cut off from the outside world, and now Liu Miao is recruiting soldiers in Guangling, looking at its momentum, its army will soon break through to 150,000 people, the longer this battle drags on, the more unfavorable it will be to me." In Xun You's tent, a man dressed in black knelt on the ground, talking to Xun You about the information he had discovered, and in the black shadow not far from him, a more obscure black shadow stood in it, motionless, as if there were only two Xun You in the tent......
