Chapter 307: Xuande Ambush, How to Deal with It!
Ignoring what Sun Ce was thinking, Xi Yu smiled to himself.
"That's something you didn't expect, right?"
"yes, we didn't think of that!"
The two brothers had embarrassed smiles on their faces.
"Let's go back and take a look later, if Huang Xu comes back, you can make the next plan, don't worry about Bai Qi's ability to do things at all, now what I want most is about the deployment of Jingzhou!"
Xi Yu didn't hide what he was thinking, and talked about his plan as if no one was around.
Referring to the mechanism of the Ming Dynasty, in order to strengthen the rule at that time, Zhu Yuanzhang specially set up a brocade guard.
And today's drama Yu also refers to the system at that time, since the situation in Qingxu and Xu was relatively stable, he secretly set up an organization roughly equivalent to Jinyiwei.
Its network of various talents, quietly created a group of secret guards to obey their orders, and these people now have many years of operational experience.
And the commander of these people is Guo Fengxiao, and it is not a problem to rule these people with his ability, plus he is quick to think, there are always some unexpected ideas, and he also has a lot of ways to arrange manpower.
Since the setting of this mechanism, he has almost completely mastered the size and various situations of Qingxu and Xu.
"I mean, it always feels like someone is revealing our plan, and now it seems that I really didn't think it through!"
At this time, Sun Ce finally understood where he had lost over the years.
He has also made achievements in business, and Xu Yin's shopkeeper also has friendships, so he naturally understands the truth.
"No wonder you know all these business conditions in the south, and now it seems that it is not unreasonable that you can obtain so much wealth."
Sun Ce's appreciation Xi Yu was not polite, but nodded slightly.
"The reason why I tell you this is just to let you understand that you must think about everything before doing anything in the future, but you can rest assured, since we are now an alliance, I will naturally not attack you."
"On the contrary, if you are in danger in Koto, you can just tell me, and I will do my best."
It stands to reason that Xi Yu's remarks undoubtedly gave the two Sun brothers a shot in the arm, but at this time, the two couldn't be happy.
After glancing at each other, both seemed to see that the other was worried.
Although what Xi Yu said was not harmful to them, the feeling of being choked by someone under the fence made them extremely uncomfortable, but they were helpless.
"Now that I have told you all my details, I hope you can keep your mouth shut, if the news of the existence of the secret guard spreads, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not be understood by others, especially to guard against Liu Bei and Cao Pi."
The reason why Xi Yu said this was not that he was really afraid that the fact of the existence of the secret guard would leak out.
In fact, even if it is known, there is nothing wrong with it.
After so many years of painstaking management, these people are extremely secretive, and it is tantamount to a fantasy to uproot them.
What's more, the people he selected were all very skilled, and even if they met Xu Chu and others, they could guarantee that they would get out.
The more he knew, the more Sun Ce sighed in his heart, I am afraid that since Cao Cao's death, no one in the world can beat Xi Yu in strategy.
As they spoke, they walked, and after a while, the group came to the place where the black riders were stationed.
It just so happened that Huang Xu and Sa Beifeng were also here, but it seemed that these two had just come back and hadn't had time to go to Xiyu to report.
In the blink of an eye, several people came to the school grounds.
I saw that the black riders were divided into two columns, east and west, and practiced their own boxing, the boxing method practiced on the west side was extremely masculine, while the east side was very different, and the Tai Chi was as soft as water.
Sun Ce was quite shocked to see this kind of training, and wanted to ask questions several times, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back.
Seeing Xi Yu coming, Huang Xu hurriedly greeted him, and after taking a few people into the tent, he couldn't wait to take out the results of his time.
In addition to a large, clearly labeled map, there are dozens of detailed small maps.
What surprised several people even more was that this map not only clearly marked the places where the soldiers of Jingzhou were stationed and their distribution, but also even gave a strategy to deal with it.
Even Zhou Yu was shocked, it was the first time he had seen such a beautiful picture of homework, and he could see it so closely.
"Xi Gong, I have to say that the abilities of these people under your command are indeed extraordinary."
For Zhou Yu's appreciation, Xi Yu nodded and smiled.
"Actually, what you see now is not the final strategy, and then we have to make detailed arrangements and arrangements for the white horse, and you can also see how the white horse is used."
Xi Yu said as he looked at Huang Xu who was standing next to him.
"I should have a say in this!"
Huang Xu's face was full of excitement, after all, he had brought back valuable information from this trip.
"In general, our previous assessment of Liu Xuande seems to be a little too high, and now it seems that his soldiers and horses are not indestructible, of course, it cannot be ruled out that this is his suspicious soldier."
"If the news of our arrival in Jiangdong has already been leaked, I think this is likely to be a trap laid by Liu Xuande, what is it, we still need to test it!"
Huang Xu pointed out a location on the map.
"I can almost conclude that there are ambushes here in Huangpi, with about 10,000 troops, and some grain and grass, so it should be to lure the enemy to encircle and suppress, but if you really go, you will undoubtedly fall into the trap of the other party."
As soon as he said this, he was confused when he heard Sun Quan and Sun Ce on the side, how did he know it clearly, as if he had gone to the scene to see it in person, could it be that he could still pinch it?
With curiosity, the two Sun brothers looked forward to Huang Xu's next answer.
"How do you see that there is a problem in this, the arrangement of this soldier and horse is indeed a bit unreasonable, but it seems a bit far-fetched to say that it is an ambush."
After all, Sun Ce couldn't bear the doubts in his heart, and asked such a thing with a frown.
The reason why there are such concerns is mainly because Sun Ce has suffered too much loss in this regard.
In front of Coach Qingxu, he really didn't dare to talk about any topic about ambushes, and if it weren't for that, he wouldn't give up this foot.
Huang Xu seemed to have thought that the other party would ask such a question, so he got up directly and came to the side of the sand table, and quickly put out the local topographic map under the gaze of everyone.
"You see, if you want to set up an ambush in the terrain here, there is no problem in placing a thousand people."
"As far as I know, there are four or five places in this kind of terrain, so that five thousand people can be placed."
"I believe everyone knows that the cavalry of Liu Xuande's camp is ostensibly under the command of Zhang Fei, but few people know that they are actually commanded by Liu Xuande himself, in the final analysis, Zhang Fei is just a reckless person and does not have perfect command ability."
"If you look at the terrain here, although the terrain of the mountains and rivers here is complicated, it is quite difficult to open the battlefield here, everyone present I want to ask, if you arrange soldiers and horses here, what kind of tactics will you choose?"
"It is undoubtedly the safest way to use the big head soldiers as bait to lure the enemy here, and then encircle and annihilate them."
"In addition, Xu Yin is not just a businessman!"
Speaking of this, Huang Xu glanced at Xi Yu imperceptibly, as if he was asking for his opinion.
"It's okay, just say what you have, finish it early and start eating early, my stomach will be hungry for a long time!"
Huang Xudun was helpless when he heard this, he could behave so calmly on such an occasion, I am afraid that there will never be a second person except Xi Yu.
What's even more helpless is Sun Quan and Sun Ce on the side, hungry? It's only been a long time since I've eaten, why are I hungry again?
didn't have time to say too much, Huang Xu didn't hesitate to look at the sand table again.
"In that case, I won't be verbose, Xu Yin clearly knows how much grain and grass Liu Xuande has, so judging from the grain and grass deployed here, it is definitely an ambush."
"And our coping strategy is also very simple, we only need to send two groups of men and horses, the first wave of cavalry does not need too much, two or three thousand people are enough to go to the test, and the remaining five or six thousand people only need to attack with bows and arrows from a distance."
"It is enough to lure the enemy out in this way, and then to make a large number of men and horses surround them and annihilate them!"
"It's time to eat!"
This time, Huang Xu did not pause, so that Sun Quan and Sun Ce heard it in a fog, but Zhou Gongjin on the side seemed to understand what Huang Xu wanted to express, and his face was full of thoughtfulness.
"Is this going to work?"
Because they hadn't eaten for a long time, and because the Sun brothers still needed to digest what Huang Xu said, they could only find Zhou Gongjin with doubts.
"In my opinion, it is naturally no problem, and this method is most suitable for sneak attacks, and it is the most suitable at night, we know the plan in advance, and the soldiers have enough time to rest, but they are different, and the movement of troops and horses at night is naturally not as good as ours, and we have seized the opportunity."
"But I have a little concern, I have defeated the ambush here, and we will inevitably have to mobilize a large number of soldiers and horses in the future, this matter must not be hidden, if Liu Xuande detects it in advance, I am afraid it will be difficult to deal with, and the difficulty is that there are not so many warships in Jian'an."
In Zhou Gongjin's view, there seems to be no suitable solution to such a situation.
But after Huang Xu on the side heard his words, he showed a smug smile.
"Could it be that you forgot that we still have the stars?"
"I've long heard that Zhou Gongjin commanding the sailor is a must, how about I hand over the star to you this time?"
In the face of this sudden good thing, Zhou Gongjin was a little overwhelmed for a while.
"Give it to me?"
In the final analysis, he is just a general in front of Xi Yu, and his reputation and prestige in Xi Yu's camp are much worse than Huang Xu.
"Are you sure you want to give it to me?"
Looking at the smiling expression on Huang Xu's face, Zhou Gongjin became more and more bottomless.
"Is there something wrong? Not to mention for the time being, there is no need to use suspicious people, just Gong Jin's talent is afraid that there will never be a second one in Jiangdong, and Zhiyong and Shuangquan should not let it go! ”
Listening to Huang Xu's words, Xi Yu was silent from beginning to end, and it was obvious that this represented his own opinion.
In an instant, Zhou Gongjin suddenly felt a little overwhelmed, he never expected that he would have such a high appreciation for himself in Xi Yu's heart.
"Lord, I ......"
Zhou Gongjin seemed to want to say something, but was interrupted by Xi Yu directly reaching out.
"Don't say those polite words to me, you just have to play to your heart's content!"
The reason why such a decision was made was that there were very few people in Jiangdong who could be used, and when it came to fighting bravely, except for Sun Ce, Zhou Gongjin was Zhou Gongjin.
And Zhou Gongjin also has unique achievements in resourcefulness.
After throwing down such words, Xi Yu went to eat without looking back, and Huang Xugang on the side wanted to follow, but was pulled by Zhou Gongjin.
"You can't go!"
This made Huang Xu a little unclear.
"I've just come back not long ago, but I haven't eaten yet, and I'm hungry!"
Huang Xu's face was full of wry smiles.
"Don't worry, when we finish discussing this matter, I will personally set up a banquet for you to catch the wind and wash the dust, let's have a long talk and talk about wine!"
Perhaps because of the emptiness in his abdomen, Huang Xu agreed extremely well.
Seeing this scene, Xi Yu couldn't help but speed up his pace, for fear that Zhou Gongjin would pull himself back again.
On the other side, the land of Jingzhou, Jiangxia.
Sun Qian is in charge of all the big and small matters in the barracks, and now Xing Daorong, a brave general in Jingzhou, also has a place in the army.
At this moment, this is ambushed here with Zhang Fei.
This Xing Daorong is holding a Xuanhua axe, and he has also made a lot of contributions, so he is also respected in the Lingling area.
But this time, he and Zhang Fei have been in ambush here for many days, and there has been no result until now.
As early as ten days ago, Liu Xuande had received the news that Xi Yu was going to Jiangdong to marry Sun Shangxiang, and the moment he got the news, Liu Xuande almost fainted.
Originally, Sun Shangxiang himself planned to win it back and consolidate the Sun-Liu alliance.
But his letters have been sent out for so long, but instead of getting a response from the other party, he heard about the marriage of Sun Shangxiang, which made Liu Xuande embarrassed for a while.
If he had known this, he would not have sent someone to deliver the letter, and now it seems that he can only bring shame on himself.
After discussing with his military advisor Xu Yuanzhi, he could only quickly come to a conclusion.
The purpose of Xi Yu's trip is probably the same as his plan, and he wants to achieve the purpose of union between the two parties through the marriage with Sun Shangxiang.
If you want to say that the alliance between Xiyu and the Jiangdong Sun clan in the northern Qingxu land, the next plan is likely to use troops against Jingzhou.
This also led to Liu Xuande's decisive choice to set up an ambush in Huangpo, and even the Chibi area strengthened prevention and control.
Its purpose was to intercept the messengers, and if Wu Hou rejected his request in the letter, he would not hesitate to kill him.
After all, in the name of benevolence, you can't indulge yourself.
What he didn't expect was that instead of refusing, Xu Yuanzhi praised his approach, which made Liu Xuande a little embarrassed.
"General, it's not a way for us to wait like this, if the other party doesn't come, can't it be that we have to stay here all the time?"
"Now morale is a little low, I'm worried that if this continues, even if the other party comes, I'm afraid we won't be able to deal with it."
Xing Daorong looked at the tall Zhang Fei in front of him with a sad face, and said with a respectful expression.
This scene may seem a little funny to others, to say that these two people are not much better in terms of physique, but Zhang Fei is even more coarse and fine under a closer look.
Even so, Zhang Fei didn't know what to do at this moment.
"The general is also a person who has commanded the army for many years, how can he not know the truth of this, the military spirit is absolutely unshakable."
"What's more, we've been stationed again for so many days, and it's not bad to wait for him for a few more days, but fortunately, the weather isn't too hot now, otherwise it would be really uncomfortable!"
"What's more, the eldest brother handed over such an errand to us, and we definitely can't take it lightly."
Zhang Fei's response was neither salty nor light, and he didn't have a good impression of Xing Daorong in his heart.
It's just because he is also a half-literate person, but Xing Daorong in front of him doesn't seem to have any strengths no matter where he looks at it, if he talks about tactics, he is just like a reckless ear, as for culture, let alone mention!
Just as the two were talking, a hurried horn suddenly sounded from the front camp.
"Isn't this coming, give the order immediately, and the army will prepare to meet me together!"
"Good!"
Hearing that Zhang Fei gave a military order, Xing Daorong suddenly became interested, and he was really worried that if he continued to delay like this, I was afraid that these people under his hands would really have a mess!
Although he is a general of the army, Xing Daorong knows in his heart that these people under him are not very convinced of him.
Fortunately, they had promised them great benefits, so that these people could reluctantly obey their orders.
originally thought that the enemy soldiers and horses had arrived, but after coming to the frontline camp, Zhang Fei was a little dumbfounded, if it hadn't completely darkened today, he could still see that it was not the enemy soldiers and horses, but the heralds of Jiangdong!
"What is the signal?"
Zhang Fei was a little confused for a while, because the man did not enter his camp, but stood in the distance and roared at the top of his voice?
"What is this for?"
Not only Zhang Fei, but Xing Daorong, who came in a hurry, was also confused.
"Could it be that they saw through our ambush?"
Xing Daorong muttered quietly.
"No way, they're not immortals!"
While the two were talking, they saw that the herald seemed to have completed his mission and turned to leave.
It didn't take long for another report to be sent to Malaysia.
"General!"
"Tell me, what did the man shout there?"
Looking at the spy kneeling on the ground in front of him, Zhang Fei asked with a wave of his big hand.
"This ...... I ......"
The spies didn't dare to speak, as if they were worried.
"You are a big man, what are you rubbing, if you have something to say!"
Zhang Fei's eyes widened, and the spy suddenly shuddered.
"The herald came this time to give a response to the fact that the lord wanted to marry Jiangdong Sun Shangxiang, but it was just a verbal response from Wu Hou, and no letter was sent!" (End of chapter)
