Recently, Cao Cao has been depressed.

In fact, after careful calculation, the real loss of the entire grass boat borrowing arrow incident is not too big, but it is basically hung on his head, Fa Zheng and Zhang He, one article and one martial arts, can be called arms.

He Liu Bei also had losses, but dozens of broken ships and a little-known deputy general, Huo Jun, could not be compared with himself.

The most important thing is that he Lin Yunwen said 'Wolong's clever plan to calm the world, lose the warship and send arrows', and now the morale in the entire military camp is very low.

This matter is too mysterious from beginning to end, and he Lin Yunwen is not an immortal, so the only reasonable explanation is that he Zhuge Liang is a collaborator?

Of course, Cao Cao also knew that Lin Mo's calculations were hidden here, although he was very disgusted that Zhuge Liang, who was playing tricks, had caused such a crisis, he still had to go to the barracks to appease and boost morale.

Go and appease them yourself, who is going to appease yourself, Cao Cao in the Chinese military tent rubbed his temples, and only felt that his head hurt badly.

"Lord!"

Outside the tent, Cai Mao ran in quickly, "There is a civilian boat approaching outside the village, and the person who came did not report his identity but claimed to have an important matter to meet the lord, and after the sergeant captured it, I found that the person who came was Huang Jie, the son of Jiangxia Taishou. ”

"Huang Zu's son?" Cao Cao raised his eyebrows and said.

Seeing Cai Mao nodding, he hurriedly asked, "What about people?" ”

"Waiting outside the tent."

"Quick, bring in!"

After Cai Mao went out, Cao Cao glanced at Xun Yu who was standing next to him, "What do you think?" ”

"The Huang family has only this bloodline left now, Lin Yunwen wants to use him to deceive him, and Huang Zu actually agrees?" Xun You pinched his beard and said suspiciously.

Cao Cao himself was very puzzled by this question.

But after all, his identity is special, he still came on a civilian boat, it should be intentional, and let's listen to what he has to say first.

"General Cao, General Cao!"

As soon as he saw Cao Cao's yellow shooting, he was extremely excited, knelt on one knee and choked up: "Lin Mo is incompatible, take away my father's military power, cut me from my military position, please General Cao is the master!" ”

Cao Cao was stunned, then hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, and said calmly: "Don't be anxious, you take your time to tell what happened, I will make the decision for you." ”

"General Cao"

Huang Zhu tried his best to adjust the tone of his sobbing voice, and said astringently: "It is rumored that the ancestral graves of the four major families were dug up most likely because Lin Mo wanted to use this to separate General Cao and the four major families, so as to achieve the goal of civil strife in Jingzhou.

A few days ago, Lin Mo led a large army to Xiling City, Jiangxia, and his father just asked, and he was stripped of his position as the governor of the Navy Division in the name of committing the following crimes, and only stayed in Xiling City as Jiangxia Taishou, and the last general was also stripped of the post of Shooting Sima.

My father knew that Lin Mo's gas was small, and if it was delayed, he would settle accounts for him after the war was over, so he sent the last general to meet General Cao.

If General Cao is willing to accept it, my father is willing to help the general break through the army of Lu Lin! ”

Cao Cao couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, with a big breath, his face was impassive, and he asked in a deep voice: "Lu Lin has no less than 400,000 troops, and the grain, grass and ordnance are inexhaustible, how can Ling Zun help me break the enemy?" ”

Huang Jie had stopped sobbing at this time, with a secretive smile on his face, and asked in a low voice: "Dare to ask why General Cao was able to defeat Yuan Shao when he crossed the battle?" ”

Hearing this, Cao Cao couldn't calm down anymore, even if he couldn't judge whether the other party had surrendered fraudulently for a while, but this matter of grain and grass was the lifeblood of the three armies, and it was undoubtedly a huge temptation for Cao Cao, who had eaten this benefit in the past, and he said with a short breath: "Go on!" ”

"General Cao, Lu Lin's sailors are stationed at the Xiakou ferry, and the infantry and cavalry are also encamped on the ferry, but the grain and grass barracks are all placed in Xiling City, with two million stone military rations and countless ordnance, the general defending the city is Hao Zhao, and the deputy general is Guo Huai, leading 10,000 troops to be stationed."

"But Xiling City is impregnable, even if there are only 10,000 people, it is difficult for our army to rush to break through for a while, once Lin Mo finds out that there is an enemy situation, the cavalry will be able to arrive in two hours from Xiakou to reinforcements." Cao Cao, who was already in his heart, pretended to be disappointed and sighed, but in fact, the hands behind his back were already trembling excitedly.

"What if my father has a way to get these two people drunk, and then open the city gates?" The corners of Huang Jie's mouth sketched a smile.

Cao Cao immediately made a scene, frowned and said, "Really? ”

"It's true, immediately ask the general to order all the cavalry across the river to change into the armor of the Lu army, if you meet the Lu army along the way, they will say that they are ordered to rush to Xiling City to supervise the grain, they will not be suspicious, as long as there is a fire, hundreds of thousands of troops have no food and grass, the army will be chaotic, and General Cao can also take advantage of the situation to break the Lu Lin army!"

It is very dangerous to give way and ride across the river, although the two sides of the strait are not too far apart, and even if the water area is wider, it is only about ten miles, and it is not a big problem to transport it over.

But once the war falls into a stalemate, they will have no way to retreat, and there is no food and grass supply, and it will only take a day or two for the army to surrender without a fight, in essence, this is the same as Lu Lin did not dare to rush to transport his own foot and horse across the river.

Once the opposite side implements the clear of the wilderness, and the navy cuts off its food and grass supply on the Yangtze River, then the group of people who cross the river will starve to death.

If there is an internal response, then it is different, if the whole thing is completed as Huang Jian said, then Lu Lin is indeed bound to fail.

Unfortunately, this is destined to be just a beautiful fantasy.

The reason for Huang Jie's appearance is too far-fetched, it is very reasonable to say that Huang Zu wants to verify because of the grave digging incident, but to say that Lin Mo is narrow-minded because you asked more questions, you deprived both father and son of their military positions, who would believe it.

Not to mention far away, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, and Man Zhong are all generals, Lin Mo is not entrusted with important tasks, how can you become like this in your Huang family.

If you don't believe it or not, but Cao Cao can't really shoot Huang Shot, after all, people are wearing the hat of surrender, if they kill him, who will dare to defect in the future.

Therefore, Cao Cao can only cooperate with the performance, and he can't puncture anything after all.

However, before he could open his mouth to find a suitable reason to be perfunctory, Huang Zhu continued: "But this matter is conditional. ”

Hearing this, Cao Cao's eyes lit up, if there were conditions, then this matter might be true, "But it doesn't hurt to say it!" ”

"General Cao"

Huang Zhu first acted in a matter-of-fact manner, and then said slowly: "General Cao, the enmity between my Huang family and the Sun family, should have heard of it, and after the matter is completed, please ask General Cao to hand over Sun Ce to our Huang family for disposal." ”

"Good! If this matter can be done, Lu Lin can break it, and Sun Ce, a temporary ally, will also be my fierce enemy sooner or later, so how about handing it over to you to deal with! ”

Cao Cao put his hands on Huang Jie's shoulders heavily, and said in a deep voice: "You can rest in my military camp for a while, I need to make arrangements for the attack on Xiling, and when everything is ready, when you return to Xiling, you can convey the details to Ling Zun one by one, so that the plan can be successful." ”

"The last general obeys!"

Cao Cao nodded and looked at Cai Mao, "Take it down, treat it as a guest!" ”

"Whoa!"

After the two left, Cao Cao sighed, put his hands on his belt and groaned: "Gongda, this thing sounds a little unreasonable, but I think there seems to be a trace of possibility in his last sentence."

Judging from this straw boat borrowing arrows, Lin Mo's behavior can no longer be explained by wisdom, and my confidence in the long-term confrontation is also a little insufficient, but if this matter can really pull Lu Lin up in one go, I want to give it a try, what do you think? ”

Guo Jia is gone, Xun Yu is gone, Fa Zheng is also gone, plus Jia Xu and Liu Ye, who should have belonged to him, are not there, there are not many people Cao Cao can discuss, and Xun You's opinion is very important.

"Lord, Huang Jie had a good question just now, how did the Guandu battle win, I don't know if the lord still remembers." Xun You didn't answer directly, but asked a question that seemed to be irrelevant.

"Destroy their food and grass." Cao Cao said.

Xun You nodded, "Who gave the news to the lord Yuan Jun to store grain?" ”

Hearing this, Cao Cao's body stiffened, and he sighed, "Remember, of course remember, it was Lin Motuo Zhang Yang who brought the tips, you reminded it well, reminded it well."

He knew what Xun Yu meant, and the only way to win in such a battle where there was a huge disparity between the enemy and our forces was to make a fuss about the grain and grass, he knew, and Lin Mo also knew, but Lin Mo used means to find out where the grain and grass were.

Now, Lu Lin occupies an absolute advantage in terms of troops, so he can calculate other people's grain and grass, wouldn't he be more and more careful about his own grain and grass, 10,000 soldiers in Xiling City are of course enough to protect grain and grass, and the unreasonable thing is that he will not put an untrusted Huang Zu in his lifeline city.

Who is Lin Mo, that is the most calculating man in the world, he would make such a low-level mistake?

Cao Cao had already confirmed that this yellow shot was the person sent by Lin Mo to deceive him, and he couldn't help but feel sorry in his heart, if it was true, how good it would be.

"Then I'll find a reason to send him away, Lin Mo is really exhausted, and he didn't forget to give me a trick at this time, which direction do you think we should go in next."

Cao Cao sat back in the handsome chair and drooped his head in a daze.

I don't know how long it took, he found that Xun You didn't seem to have answered his question all the time, so he couldn't help but turn his head to look over, only to realize that he seemed to be pondering something.

"Gongda, what do you want?"

Xun You was still indifferent, and Cao Cao raised his voice and called, "Gongda? ”

"Lord, think of a plan in the next place, or you can give it a try!" Xun You's tightly knit brows suddenly unfolded, and his eyes flashed with essence.

"Will the plan be released?" The strategy that could make Xun You so excited was not simple, and Cao Cao immediately asked him to demonstrate.

With Xun You's demonstration on the sand table, Cao Cao's expression changed visibly with the naked eye, first he was hesitant, then his eyes lit up, and the final finishing touch was directly as wide as a copper bell.

In Liu Jun's barracks, Zhuge Liang was lying on his stomach in his military tent, his face was pale, medicine was applied to his buttocks, and the whole person was in a trance.

It is a shame that a proud man like him will one day be reduced to the sin of demagoguery and eat the scepter.

Of course, the words that Lin Mo asked Xu Sheng to shout by the river were probably even more ruthless than this military staff, which once made Zhuge Liang's Dao heart collapse.

He hadn't done anything else these days, he was just wondering how Lin Mo had done it.

He has thought about all the possible impossible reasons, it is really unreasonable, it is too difficult, this question is too difficult.

Liu Bei saw all this in his eyes and hurt in his heart, and he also had a good encouragement for Zhuge Liang, Gou Jian who was lying on his salary and tasting courage, and Han Xin who was humiliated by his crotch, but his role seemed to be limited.

In fact, a smart person like Zhuge Liang doesn't need to be enlightened, because these truths are engraved into his bones.

Liu Bei knew that he was not sad that he was humiliated, but that he was confused, in this first collision, not only his exquisite plan was discovered, but also played by others, Zhuge Liang at this time should have lost the confidence to defeat Lin Mo.

But this is the most important point, I can only hope that he can figure it out as soon as possible.

If you want to say that Lin Mo is really ruthless, you can break it, and you humiliate people like this, you don't play like this, it's really a demon.

"Kong Ming." In the military tent, Liu Bei was in a daze, and Zhuge Liang was in a trance, when Cao Cao and Xun You walked in.

"General Cao is here." Liu Bei hurriedly got up to salute, and Zhuge Liang also nodded and saluted.

Cao Cao unceremoniously brought a small stool to sit on the edge of the bed, sighed and asked, "How is the injury on your body?" ”

"Thank you General Cao for your concern, you can lie down and walk around for a few more days." Zhuge Liang's voice was a little weak.

Twenty military sticks, even people like Wei Yan can't stand it, let alone Zhuge Liang.

Cao Cao explained helplessly: "It's not that I don't sympathize with you, but I was also helpless in the situation at that time, the soldiers were not angry, and the rear also needed an explanation, so I could only wronged you." ”

"I understand below." Zhuge Liang nodded.

"I'm here to see your body, and I'm here to discuss something with you and Xuande."

After Cao Cao finished speaking, Liu Bei glanced at Zhuge Liang, who was pale, and took the initiative to take the words, "General Cao, please speak." ”

"Just now, Huang Zu's son Huang Shot came over, saying that Huang Zu intended to surrender."

Looking at Zhuge Liang's stunned gaze, he knew that he wanted to go with Xun You, and before he could speak, Cao Cao pressed his hand, "How can you hide it from me, but I think this matter might as well come up with a plan, and you will need to work hard at that time." ”

As soon as these words came out, the weak Zhuge Liang was also interested, and instinctively wanted to help him get up, but his expression was distorted because of the pain in his buttocks, Cao Cao hurriedly cared: "Mr. doesn't have to get up, just listen to me." ”

Liu Bei was worried in his heart, he was still scolding Pocai a few days ago, this will be called by Mr. and Mr., this strategy is afraid that Kong Ming will take risks.

"General Cao, please."

Cao Cao raised his forehead towards Xun You, who relayed the plan again.

Hearing this, Zhuge Liang's expression was a little playful, but Liu Bei's reaction was the same as Cao Cao's before, but then the excitement was concealed, and he sighed: "Kong Ming, this plan sounds good, and once you succeed, the 400,000 Lu Lin army will be wiped out, but you have to go deep into the tiger's den, I don't know what you think in your heart." ”

Zhuge Liang didn't have time to say anything, Cao Cao began to appease, "Xuande, Kong Ming, I have thought about this plan and confirmed that it is feasible."

On the one hand, Lu Lin's naval army is actually average in combat power, and if they have the opportunity, they will definitely be more willing to use foot cavalry, after all, that is where their confidence lies in winning the ten states of the Han Dynasty;

After all, the two filial piety and filial piety died because of you, and you also ate the military stick, this matter can be passed back to Lin Mo through the yellow shot, and we will make some noise to show him these days, even if Lin Mo is wise, all this is reasonable, and he will not be suspicious.

As long as you cross the river, according to Gongda's plan, they will definitely be fooled, and when the matter is completed, they will definitely be able to burn the 400,000 Lu Lin army, and we will also win this battle! ”

This can be regarded as a reassurance and a courage.

At least Liu Bei on the side felt that no matter how much Zhuge Liang cared for him, this plan worked.

Of course, Zhuge Liang does need to take risks in person, but there is no contradiction in this matter, as long as he follows the plan, Zhuge Liang will definitely be safe.

In the end, the eyes of the three fell on Zhuge Liang, waiting for his answer.

Zhuge Liang, who had been silent for a long time, finally shook his head, "No." ”
