Chapter 570: Two pieces of old ginger and new garlic

If Jia Xu is the oldest piece of ginger among Zhao Xing's many strategists, Tian Feng is undoubtedly another piece of "old ginger".

Since there is "Lao Jiang" firmly in the top two positions in Zhao Xingjun, there is naturally a "new garlic" to challenge them, a guy like Guo Jia is no longer a "new garlic", Pang Tong, who has just taken office, is barely one, and the new generation of military advisers Li Tiezhu and Jia Mu are also two.

Zhao Xingjun is divided into "old ginger" and "new garlic", and other forces naturally have many top-notch newcomers, such as Liu Ye and Jiang Ji under Cao Cao, Zhou Yu and Lu Xun under Sun Jian, Zhuge Liang, the strategist in Liu Bei's mansion, Sima Yi, the second son of the Sima family in Yizhou, and Sun Fazheng, the Fazhen who served in the Yizhou Pastoral Mansion.

These people are all amazing and beautiful, even if Zhao Xing, who is used to seeing cattle people, he can't think of one of them.

Ma Chao and others cleanly solved Xiliang Han Sui, which made Liangguo relieve the distress of being attacked by the enemy on his belly and back, so Jia Xu left Guan Yu to sit in Gaoping City, and he personally rushed to Wudu Xiacheng to fight with the second son of the Sima family, who did not know the height of the sky. The blue wolf army stationed in Shanglu City is now preparing to expand, Tian Feng has nothing to do for a while, and he heard that Jia Xu came to Wudu, so he also rushed to Xiafen City to join in the fun.

The two "old guys" deliberately got together, in fact, to discuss how to deal with the 50,000 army that Sima Yi and Zhang Ren invaded Wudu. Now the strength of the Liang State side in Wudu is obviously not superior, only the vanguard army Han Wei plus 15,000 people led by Gao Shun, and the 15,000 blue wolf cavalry led by Zhang Xiu, a total of 30,000 people, compared to the 50,000 army in Yizhou, it is okay to hold on, and it is difficult to drive away.

However, it is precisely because of the difficulty that Jia Xu and Tian Feng feel that it must be challenging, otherwise how can they show their strategy and ability? This time, the two pieces of old ginger got together and were ready to fight with Sima Yi's new garlic.

Jia Xu carefully observed the terrain in Wudu and felt that this place was mountainous, with large trees and deep forests, although it was convenient for the troops to hide their whereabouts, but it was not conducive to the cavalry's rapid maneuvering in a large area. Now Sima Yi and Zhang Ren are stationed in Hechi City in the northeast of Xiafen City, and Fu County in the southeast direction, forming a horn situation that relies on each other, and can rely on the protection of the city for a long time to wait for reinforcements, once one side is attacked, the other side can arrive soon after, so it is very difficult.

However, the Yizhou army was not without flaws, for example, because the roads leading to Hanzhong and Guanghan were rugged and difficult to travel because they were mountainous, which brought inconvenience to the logistics supply of the 50,000 troops who came out. Once its grain route was intercepted, it would not be long before Sima Yi and Zhang Ren had to make a detour to Taiyi Mountain and withdraw to Hanzhong.

Jia Xu saw this and was planning how to send a small group of elite troops around the back of Fuxian County, destroy the logistics supply channel of the Yizhou army in one fell swoop, and force Zhang Ren, who was guarding the city, to retreat. Once Zhang Ren retreated, Sima Yi had no backup, so he naturally had to withdraw his troops.

According to Jia Xu's character of either not making a move, once he does, he will kill people, why is he no longer ruthless and designs to leave all the 50,000 Yizhou troops in Wudu?

It's not that Jia Xu doesn't want to, it's just that with his own existing strength, if he wants to leave the invading 50,000 Yizhou troops in Wudu, he is afraid that he will end up with a result of killing 1,000 enemies and losing 800 himself, and this is obviously not in line with Zhao Xing's strategic thinking of shrinking defense that he has just adjusted.

Jia Xu is using his brains, Tian Feng will naturally not be idle. He had been in Wudu with Zhang Xiu for some time, and learned that Zhang Ren had sent troops from the territory of Guanghan in Yizhou, and went upriver along the bank of the Western Han River, and finally arrived at the city of Xiafen. Now that Zhang Ren led his army to Fuxian, which was more than forty miles east of the Western Han River, it was equivalent to giving up a passage to Yizhou, so Tian Feng planned to make some ideas from this waterfront passage.

After Jia Xu and Tian Feng met, they said what they thought in each other's hearts, and the two of them scrutinized the military map, and finally came up with a "chain plan".

As mentioned earlier, Zhao Hu, who was brutally yin by Zhang Yi, almost went to the Crouching Tiger Martyr's Garden to report, but this guy was hard-hitting, and he survived and is now healed. If there is revenge, it is not a gentleman, not to mention Zhao Hu, a "rebel" who was born from the grassroots, then he will not easily forget this unforgettable hatred. After Zhao Hu saw Jia Xu and Tian Feng, he proposed that he was going to take a small team of capable men to Yizhou and Chengdu, waiting for the opportunity to kill Sima Yi's father Sima Fang, and take revenge on Sima Yi who dared to assassinate him.

After Jia Xu and Tian Feng's analysis, Zhao Xing basically did not have any friendship with the Sima family, and since the beginning of the salt ban movement, Yizhou took the opportunity to arrest the merchants of the Jin Kingdom, killing as many as they wanted, and there was no love at all. From this point of view, the Sima family and Zhao Xing are afraid that they will also end up in an endless end, just like the current Yuan family.

Since it will be an endless ending in the future, then there is no need to be afraid of Yizhou's crazy counterattack after Sima Fang is destroyed, so Jia Xu and Tian Feng agreed to Zhao Hu's adventure. And the serial plan that followed the assassination even counted Zhang Ren and Sima Yi into account.

Zhang Ren and Zhang Xiu are brothers, not many people know about it, this time Jia Xu is ready to help publicize it, and it is best to make it known to everyone in Yizhou. The purpose of this is naturally to drive a wedge between Zhang Ren, Sima Yi and even Yizhou, although it may not work, but it will definitely play a negative role.

Zhao Hu went to Chengdu to assassinate, whether it was successful or not, it would make Sima's family tremble. After the news was transmitted back to Wudu, Zhang Xiu led his army to Guanghan along the route that Zhang Ren had originally taken to Wudu in the north, pretending to attack Guanghan County. This obvious means of encircling Wei and saving Zhao is naturally easy to deceive Zhang Ren, who is familiar with the art of war and strategy, and Jia Xu wants this effect.

Zhang Ren was not deceived, so he naturally would not send troops to stop Zhang Xiu, but if this matter was spread by someone with a heart, I was afraid that it would change its taste in Sima Yi's ears. When the matter between Zhang Ren and Zhang Xiushi's brother was spreading, Zhang Ren sat back and watched Zhang Xiu go south to Yizhou without sending troops to stop him, what did he want to do?

Once Sima Yi became a little suspicious of Zhang Ren, he would probably order Zhang Ren to send troops to pursue Zhang Xiu, who had already gone south, which might just be a trick for Sima Yi to try whether Zhang Ren was loyal, but Zhang Xiu still had a move behind.

If Zhang Ren sent troops, Zhang Xiu would urgently retreat, without any head-on conflict with Zhang Ren, and let out the wind, saying that he would not do anything to his senior brother no matter what; if Zhang Ren did not send troops, it would aggravate Sima Yi's suspicion of him, at this time Zhang Xiu took the initiative to withdraw his troops, and announced that he had received a secret letter from his senior brother Zhang Ren, and decided that the two armies would reconcile.

In this way, no matter whether Zhang Ren sends troops or not, he will inevitably be suspected by the Sima family. At this time, Jia Xu and Tian Feng can gather troops and attack Hechi City, where Sima Yi is located, do you say that Sima Yi still dares to let Zhang Ren come to the rescue of him? In case Zhang Ren has secretly colluded with Zhang Xiu, wouldn't asking Zhang Ren come to help lead the wolf into the house?

When the elite soldiers led by Gao Shun attacked the city with gunpowder, Sima Yi had to urgently retreat to the Taiyi Mountains if he wanted to survive, and then returned to Hanzhong. As soon as Sima Yi left, Zhang Ren also had to go, and he had to quickly lead his troops back to Yizhou to prove his innocence.

In this way, the danger of Wudu will be completely solved, and basically there will be no too many casualties among the soldiers.

Jia Xu and Tian Feng have two pieces of old ginger, which are really delicious!
