Chapter 104: The Importance of Intelligence, Yang Zhi of the Yang Family

Cao Bin came to the conference hall and saw that most of the women in the room were full of the smell of fat powder, and only two men sat at the end.

Mu Guiying sat in the main seat, and when she saw Cao Bin coming in, she first bowed her head slightly, and then raised her hand and pointed to the vacant seat beside her:

"We are discussing a strategy against Liangshan, Cao Jianjun, please sit down."

Cao Bin was not polite, arched his hand, and came to Mu Guiying's side to sit down.

Seeing this, Mu Guiying also began to make detailed arrangements, first the placement of grain and grass, the distribution of soldiers and horses, and then the arrangement of defending the city......

For the art of war, Cao Bin memorized several military books, but he only knew the general outline, and was not proficient.

If you give him one or two thousand men, you can make do with charging into battle and defending the city and digging fortifications.

But if it's tens of thousands, it's beyond his capabilities.

Don't think that fighting a war is all about bringing people to fight.

As a commander-in-chief, you need to know how to set up camp, how to maintain morale, how to march......

Even the soldiers had to know how full they were, when they wore their armor, and when they went to the hut.

If you let a person who doesn't know how to lead troops be the commander, and he doesn't even have to fight, he doesn't do anything, and he can scatter the soldiers.

Just like now, Cao Bin listened to Mu Guiying's detailed explanation, as if he was listening to a book from heaven.

It was as if he had returned to his student days, but after half an hour, he began to fall into a trance when he looked at the delicate face in front of him.

Coupled with the fact that after several days of sailing, it was inevitably a little tiring.

It didn't take long for his slight snoring to ring out in the council chamber.

Everyone's eyes were on Cao Bin, who tilted his head.

Mu Guiying was silent for a long time, and could only show a helpless expression to everyone.

She remembered that when Cao Bin first attended the court meeting, he fell asleep in front of the emperor.

Now I can listen to myself muttering for a long time, it's a lot of face, right?

Thinking about it like this, she actually felt a little "very honored".

The other female generals were also crying and laughing, they had never seen a heartless person like Cao Bin.

Mu Guiying didn't care about him, and turned his head to look at one of the two men:

"Zhang Taishou, the information you provided is too crude, can you explain it in detail?"

The man said with a bitter face:

"Marshal Mu, that Liangshan thief is really powerful, we don't dare to venture deep into Shuibo."

When Mu Guiying heard this, she frowned and didn't speak for a long time.

In fact, she has already sent spies, but the detailed information inside Liangshan is difficult for spies in the army to find out.

Seeing this, a female general said with some anger:

"Zhang Taishou, even if you can't find out the news of the leader of Liangshan."

"Don't you even know the hydrology of your own jurisdiction?"

"Even if Liangshan is powerful, there have been records before, right?"

"Do you think that just a description of 'different shades, Hong Kong and Hong Kong' can explain the past?"

Gao Yu just didn't understand the hydrological situation of Liangshanbo, and drove the big ship to the shoal harbor, which led to the annihilation of the whole army.

And the water pool is full of reeds, if you don't figure out the situation, no matter how powerful the Yang Men female general is, she will follow in the footsteps of Gao Yu.

Zhang Taishou spread his hands helplessly:

"This official has just taken over as Zhizhou, and there is no archive in the yamen, and the official doesn't know what's going on."

The female general glanced at Zhang Taishou angrily, and she was really angry, because every time they fought, they would be dragged down by these mediocre officials and unconscious officials.

Then she looked at another man and asked:

"Yang Zhi, you were captured once, and you didn't find out the situation inside Liangshan?"

That Yang Zhi, nicknamed the blue-faced beast, is the first unlucky guy in the original book, and of course, his luck is not very good now.

He was originally a branch of the Yang family, and because he couldn't stand the life of poverty, he had already joined Gao Yu's command.

He was also captured when he accompanied Gao Yu in the attack on Liangshan last month.

A few days ago, he was the messenger sent by Gao Yu to the capital.

The court sentenced Gao Yu to the crime of raiding his family and exterminating the clan, but for the sake of his Yang family's children, they did not kill him, but they also took his official position to the end.

In order to regain his fame, he could only bite the bullet and go to Tianbo Mansion to ask for a chance to atone for his sins.

Although Old Taijun She agreed to let him go with the army, Tianbo Mansion's impression of him was even worse......

"What's going on?"

At this time, Cao Bin was suddenly awakened by the atmosphere in the room, and looked at everyone with a confused expression.

Eighth Sister Yang glanced at him with disgust and muttered, "Is this old pig reincarnated, where do you go and sleep?" ”

That Zhang Taishou hurriedly said:

"Uncle Cao, you can judge me, Marshal Mu has to ask me for detailed information about Liang Shanbo."

"You know, I've just taken office in Jeju, so where can I find out the bandits in Yangsan."

Cao Bin noticed him and immediately laughed:

"It turned out to be an old ...... Oh, Lao Zhang, I haven't seen you for a few days, and you have been promoted to the governor of Jeju? Congratulations to Gao Sheng! ”

Seeing that Cao Bin recognized himself, Jeju Taishou ran to Cao Bin as if he had found an organization, and laughed with his molars:

"Isn't this a blessing from Uncle Cao? If it weren't for you, how could I be where I am today? ”

Cao Bin originally gave Pang Yu a list of available talents, including this Zhang Taishou.

Although he is very timid, his ability to do things is good.

Cao Bin's orders, he can do it properly.

So he was written down by Cao Bin and handed it to Pang Yu.

When the Yang family general saw the worldliness of the two of them, she suddenly understood something, and her eyes when she looked at Zhang Taishou became disdainful.

Needless to say, it must be Pang Taishi's party.

Yang Bajie couldn't help but say:

"Cao Bin, don't go too far, it is the responsibility of Zhizhou to grasp the geography of mountains and rivers in the jurisdiction."

"He doesn't even know the hydrology of Liangshanbo, shouldn't he be blamed?"

"If you protect him, we will impeach you with you."

Cao Bin gave Sister Yang a disdainful look:

"I said Eighth Sister, which eye did you see that I was protecting others, isn't it the hydrological situation of Liangshanbo?"

"It's not a big deal, you see you're like a hungry wolf, what's the matter, you want to eat me?"

As he spoke, he took out the drawing paper he had just arrived in his pocket, and said with a slight meaning:

"I don't know how you led the troops? The army didn't send spies first, did they go to Liao to fight, and they also had to ask local officials about it? ”

Looking at the room full of Yang Men female generals, he couldn't help but show off and said:

"Sun Tzu's Art of War, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is the only way to win a hundred battles!"

"I don't even know this, and I still call myself a famous general?"

Sister Yang was speechless by him, and argued forcefully:

"The use of troops is to act according to the situation, and we are not fighting the Liao State now, so what's wrong with asking the local officials?"

"You even memorized Sun Tzu's Art of War wrongly, and you still have the face to teach us a lesson, I don't believe you can get any detailed information."

As he spoke, he snatched it from his hand.

Cao Bin shook his palms, dodged her outstretched hands, got up and handed them to Mu Guiying, "Marshal Mu, come and see." ”

Eighth Sister Yang was so angry that she only rolled her eyes, but she didn't continue to snatch, and looked at Mu Guiying reflexively.

Mu Guiying didn't shirk, and hurriedly took the drawing paper and looked at it.

The more she looked, the more surprised she became.

Because it not only has the name and origin of the leader of Liangshan, but also their character and martial arts are clearly recorded.

In addition, the topography, water shape, military strength, grain and grass of Liangshan are also recorded in detail.

She looked at it for a long time, and then Fang looked at Cao Bin incredulously and said, "Cao Jianjun, how did you get it." ”

Cao Bin said with a smile: "I naturally have my own way, long before I returned to Beijing last time, I sent people to blend in with the leaders of Liangshan. ”

When he said this, he was covering up his "swallow" agent.

If the imperial court knew that it had such an organization as "Swallow", it would inevitably be suspicious, and it would be a trouble.

It's better to have fewer people know.

Mu Guiying was surprised: "Before you returned to Beijing last time, you expected today? ”

Eighth Sister Yang hurriedly asked, "Gui Ying, is the information given by Cao Bin very detailed?" ”

Mu Guiying glanced at Eighth Sister Yang, and Fang shook her head in amazement:

"How exhaustive? With Cao Jianjun's intelligence, we can at least increase our chances of winning by 30%. ”

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but be a little impressed by Cao Bin, but they didn't expect that this young master still had so many eyes.

In contrast, they themselves are like simple-minded warriors.

Seeing that the daughter of the Yang family would no longer chase after her to ask for information about Yangsan, Jeju Taishou suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time showed a grateful look at Cao Bin.

Mu Guiying looked around at the crowd: "Since the information is sufficient, then let's prepare our ships and prepare to attack Liangshan......
