166 Fishing
"Lord Xu, you are ......"
"How?"
"How could you take ...... We're going to war. ”
"Nothing! Everyone is so confident, it should be fine. ”
Xu Huabiao followed him closely and rode with Pei Zhuhyun on the horse, in his arms.
Today is the time for the whole army to set out for Jiangdong.
Everyone is in good spirits, and Xu Huabiao's words are not wrong.
It's just that when everyone passes by Xu Huabiao's side, they will involuntarily glance at Pei Zhuhyun in his arms.
No way, that face is indeed a little too eye-catching......
"But that's a bit too much, isn't it?" Dong Yong Bae's expression was a little strange.
"It doesn't matter. It's good that I don't march with the big army. Xu Huabiao smiled, "I won't trouble you." ”
"Sir, I already told the young master yesterday, you ......"
"Ahh Let's go! Let's go!! ”
Xu Huabiao smiled.
didn't answer, but sandwiched the horse's belly between his legs and hung Dong Yong Bae there.
"Lord, are you acting too much?"
"Acting? I didn't act! Why do you think I'm acting! I have a lot of confidence in them now! ”
“…… That's not what I'm talking about! Can you please lighten it, my arm hurts. ”
"Oh! That's what you say! Xu Huabiao adjusted his sitting position on the horse.
Bae Joo-hyun glanced at Xu Huabiao a little depressed.
"Actually, my lord, you don't need to be so angry, I read the information of Moling, and I also feel that there is no suspense in this expedition to Moling, and it will definitely win."
“…… Why do you feel that? ”
"I've read that information, although there are many soldiers and generals in Moling, but no matter how you look at it, I don't think it's likely to be Li Cailin's opponent!" Bae Joo-hyun said seriously.
"How is that possible!" Xu Huabiao glanced at Pei Zhuhyun, "Don't say anything else, as long as the people in Moling stay in the city and don't come out, they will rely on those four or five thousand people to defend the city, do you think Li Cailin can fight it?" ”
"Just lead them out of the city."
"How do you get out of the city?" Xu Huabiao glanced at Bae Joo-hyun.
"Attack outside the city! It's time for the autumn harvest soon, and if we look like we're grabbing grain, we'll be able to lure them out of the city. ”
“……”
"What, isn't that right?"
"No, you think the same as me."
"That's right! It's that simple...... Oh!! Lord, I'm not saying your idea is simple. I'll just say ......"
"Nothing. Well, okay, let's not talk about it, it's time to get on the boat, remember to call me son. ”
"Yes!"
Pei Zhuhyun glanced at Xu Huabiao deeply and said nothing.
Xu Huabiao was silent.
With his head stuffy, he rode out of Lujiang City.
At the place of the ferry, the ship of Pu Chun's brocade thief was already in place, and it was transporting troops to the opposite shore in batches in an orderly manner.
Xu Huabiao led the horse, got on a boat, and came to the other side of the river without any waves.
Smooth is not like words.
And the smooth things are still going on.
It took more than half a day for 3,000 soldiers to be transported to the other side of the river.
Then he didn't stop, and the whole army immediately started and went straight to Moling.
Ten days later, the whole army arrived at the administrative center of Yangzhou, under the city of Moling.
"So, do you still think we can conquer Moling City very smoothly?"
That night, in the camp of Li Cailin's army outside Moling City, Xu Huabiao was drinking rice soup for dinner and asked Pei Zhuhyun, who was holding a bamboo slip next to him.
What she was looking at was the information that had just come out of Moling City yesterday.
On Li Cailin's side, the army had just crossed the Yangtze River, and Li Chongye, the assassin of Yangzhou in Moling City, knew about it.
After that, Moling entered a state of combat readiness.
Several of the guards who were sent to Danyang and Moling Port by Li Chongye were recalled to Moling City by him.
The number of defenders in Moling City has now reached 6,000.
It is clear that it is necessary to hold the Moling and not go out to win or lose with Li Cailin.
Defend until Li Cailin retreats.
The other party probably also collected the information that Li Cailin's military rations were not much......
"I didn't expect this Yangzhou assassin to be so cowardly......" Pei Zhuxun put down the information in his hand and sighed softly.
"If he wants to have a little responsibility and courage, can he let Kim Kwang-so show off his power at the door of his house with hundreds of thousands of people?" Xu Huabiao's face was calm, "It's fun now, right?" The soldiers and food in Moling City are sufficient, and they are shrunk in turtle shells, so they don't plan to come out. What do you do? ”
“…… Then according to your intentions, how was it originally planned? ”
"My arrangement? Don't tell the soldiers from the beginning that we're going to fight Moling. We just want to go to the vicinity of Moling to grab a circle of grain and people, and then turn around and go to Yuzhang. ”
“…… Yu Zhang? ”
"Whether it's Yuzhang or going around to Wu County, anyway, our goal is not Moling. We don't know where the enemy spies are, so how can you prevent the enemy from knowing that we're here to attack the city? Xu Huabiao spread his hands, "So, from the very beginning, hiding strategic intentions is the most important thing." ”
“…… What's the point? ”
"Snatch food and people, so that we can lead their men out of the city to fight us. That's the key. Well, now, even if we put on a posture of grabbing food and people, the other party will not believe it, because they have already seen that we are here to grab land. Xu Huabiao shook his head, "As long as the other party is egged on to the end, it will be a turtle shell." Now Li Cailin is thinking about how to break this turtle shell! ”
"Well, the next thing can only be seen by the generals how to provoke Li Chongye out of the city." Bae Joo-hyun nodded.
……
Xu Huabiao's prediction was not wrong.
The day after the army came to Moling City, Li Cailin took almost the entire army of generals to the city to call for battle.
The defenders of the city pretended not to hear......
On the third day, repeat.
On the fourth day, still.
Finally, Li Cailin couldn't hold her breath anymore.
Perhaps it was Dong Yong Pei, who followed the army, that they discussed, and Li Cailin finally changed his strategy on the fifth day.
Han Yise and Liu Renna, who accompanied the army, left the camp with an army.
On the side of the camp, Li Cailin continued to go to the city every day to invite battles.
After another three or four days, Han Yise and Liu Renna returned, both bringing a lot of grain that had just been cut back from the field and was not yet fully ripe.
You can eat it......
"Lord, you're back."
"What's wrong? You look like you're in a hurry to go to the toilet, so go ahead!! Who's holding you back? Xu Huabiao smiled as he took off the coat he was wearing, and the fish cage made of straw he was carrying in his hand and the fishing rod inserted on it were also thrown aside.
“……”
"Forget it, just look at your expression and know that you haven't eaten yet. Say, what's the matter? ”
"Li Cailin's people came to look for you at noon."
"Oh, finally remembered me?" Xu Huabiao smiled and shook his head, "By the way, I caught a big fish, we can roast it and eat it at night......"
"Lord!"
Bae Joo-hyun looked at Xu Huabiao with a serious face.
Be quiet.
"Now is not the time for you to lose your temper, my lord." Pei Zhuhyun grimaced: "Maybe you are very uncomfortable with Li Cailin's attitude of ignoring the lord some time ago, but we have to solve the problem now." Are you really going to stay here forever? ”
"No! There was not so much food in the camp yesterday, and we would stay for half a year at most, and when the food was gone, we went back to Lujiang, just right, Yun'er's illness was cured, and we went back to Luoyang directly. ”
“…… That's what you think, my lord? ”
"Or else? They didn't listen to me for a long time, and they were so confident, but now they find that they can't solve the problem, so they ask me to wipe their butts? Xu Huabiao smiled, "I'm sorry, I'm not interested." ”
“…… Lord, this is the main job of our counselors. ”
"I'm not a counselor. You are mistaken. Xu Huabiao shook his head, "That's why I'm too lazy to care." Let them toss! Oh, by the way, I thought of a better way to eat fish......"
"Lord!!"
“……”
Xu Huabiao took the fish out of the fish basket.
Then, he looked at Bae Joo-hyun, who had a serious face, even a little anger.
"There you go."
“…… What? ”
"I said, you're a counselor, so go and help them with ideas." Xu Huabiao looked at Pei Zhuhyun with a serious face.
"Me?"
"You are a counselor. And, probably the best strategist I've ever seen...... Well, I don't know who is stronger and who is weak between you and Xiujing, but it should be about the same. Xu Huabiao looked serious, "You go." ”
"My lord, my current identity is your concubine!"
"Then you go and say, I told you everything you said."
“…… Is that okay? ”
"Yes! It seems that I am more resourceful and unpredictable. Xu Huabiao looked calm.
Be quiet.
"Lord, then I'll go." Bae Joo-hyun nodded.
"Wait a minute."
Xu Huabiao threw the fish back into the fish cage, wiped his hand on his body, and then returned to the house and took a piece of gauze out.
Covered in front of Bae Joo-hyun's face.
"What are you doing, my lord?"
"Not everyone can believe what you say without looking at your face."
"What do you mean?"
"People are too beautiful sometimes, sometimes it's not a good thing. Okay, there you go. ”
“…… But can I change a veil? ”
"Why? Is there any difference? ”
"This veil is full of fishy smell...... I smelled and wanted to vomit. ”
“……”
