( ) "Expected? ”

Chen Yan and Chen Gong were both a little puzzled, looking at Jia Xu, not knowing why this old guy was talking wildly this time.

Although Liyang City is a strategic point, the city is not large, and the geographical location is not a battleground for soldiers.

Such a position actually requires Cao Cao to use Xiahou Dun, a general who can almost be called one of the best under his command, to guard it, and the mystery is really difficult to understand.

However, Jia Xu's eyes were surging with brilliance at this time, obviously very confident, Chen Yan and Chen Gong would not doubt that he was really "expected".

Sure enough, Jia Xu explained slowly: "We attacked Beihai before, and the lord cut off Xiahou Yuan's hand, which almost ruined his career as a military general, Xiahou Yuan was originally the core general under Cao Cao, but now he has lost half of his right hand, and he has almost become a wasted person. ”

At this point, Jia Xu paused slightly, and continued: "And in Cao Cao's army, the closest to Xiahou Yuan is his brother, Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Yuan suffered such a misfortune, Xiahou Yuan must be angry in his heart, at this time he has the deepest hatred for us, so if he is the first to fight with us, he will definitely show all his strength." ”

Speaking of which, Chen Yan and Chen Gong both understood, it turned out that Cao Cao asked Xiahoudun to garrison here, not because of how important this strategic location was, but because Xiahoudun had the highest anger value at this time, and if he was the vanguard, he could best drag Chen Yan's army.

"No wonder Mr. Jia Xu said that it was expected, it turned out that Cao Cao was planning to do this......"

Chen Yan nodded slowly and said.

Jia Xu also nodded, and said: "Yes, the most difficult thing to cross in this Liyang City is Weishui outside the city, since Xiahoudun has come here, it means that Cao Cao already knows that we are coming, at this time they must have made complete preparations, to cross Weishui, must be fast!" ”

Chen Gong frowned at this time, and interjected and said: "But it is winter at this time, and the water potential of Weishui in winter is not large, it is a good opportunity to break through, in case it is early spring, and the ice and snow melt, it will be difficult to cross the river at that time." ”

When everyone heard this, they all nodded and said that it was good, although the winter is not suitable for siege warfare, but crossing the river has an indescribable advantage, and when the warm flowers bloom, although the ice and snow melt, the soldiers are suitable for hand-to-hand combat, but it will cause the water to rise, resulting in difficulties in crossing the river.

Therefore, if Chen Yan wants to successfully take Puyang, it is best to cross the river in winter and attack the city in spring.

It's just that this principle is easy to say, but it is difficult to do.

Chen Yan asked, "If we want to cross the river, we need boats and rafts, I don't know where the nearest woods are?" ”

Jia Xu shook his head and sighed: "We have come this way, we have not seen the forest trees, I have sent spies to check around, and there should be a response tomorrow at the latest." ”

Chen Yan asked again: "This Weishui Haohao soup is endless, but I don't know where the narrowest position is?" Is there a sluice gate upstream, and will Xiahoudun use the water attack to attack us? ”

Jia Xu and Chen Gong shook their heads at the same time, obviously the two of them had just come over, and they didn't understand the geographical situation around here.

Chen Yan didn't blame, after all, their army had just come, he nodded, and said, "Let Tanma go and check, tomorrow morning, let's continue to study the strategy of crossing the river." ”

Jia Xu and Chen Gong immediately received their orders and went down one after another.

Chen Yan looked at Wei Shui from afar, and let out a long sigh, although Chen Yan has always maintained an overwhelming advantage in the battle of Yanzhou, the entire army has begun to be tired.

After a long war, there will be decline.

……

In the middle of the night, when the third watch arrived, Chen Yan's military tents were finally all seated, and the mighty military camp was lined up from a distance.

Chen Yan was not panicked, this time it was not a long-distance sneak attack, Cao Cao now only has a city in Puyang, and it is a matter of time before it is encircled, so Cao Cao must have been on guard for the whole army, let him know whether it is or not, it is not painful.

Chen Yan has been tired for a long time, although he has the strength, but he also feels that his back hurts, he has made a small achievement at this time, he can still remain unhindered without eating for ten days and a half months, after Bigu Chen Yan is refreshed, his mind is extremely clear, this is also a stunt.

There are already many members of the Yellow Turban Sect in Chen Yan's army, and these people have more or less practiced the art of Bigu, but these people's cultivation is too low, and most of them can only last for about three days.

It's just that if you want these sect members to practice successfully, there is no possibility.

At this time, the moonlight is like water, the winter weather is dry and dry, there is no cloud, the moonlight shines directly, although it is night, but it is also very bright. Although Chen Yan was tired, he was not sleepy, he slowly paced out of his big tent, towards a hardwood coffin not far from the door.

There was no one else in the coffin, it was Chen Yan's father-in-law, Lu Bu, who was dead but not stiff, and Lu Fengxian.

Chen Yan looked at the coffin, with mixed feelings in his heart, sighed, and said in a low voice: "Lu Bu, Lu Bu...... We have grievances and grievances, but I didn't expect to get together in this way now. ”

After saying this, Chen Yan raised his right hand, hooked his index finger, knocked on the coffin three times, and then lifted the lid of the coffin.

Under the moonlight, I saw the huge coffin lid slowly fall to the ground, making a loud rumbling sound, and then reflecting the moonlight, a huge head slowly rose from the coffin, and then what appeared in Chen Yan's eyes was a pale as paper, expressionless face.

"It's been so long, I should let you out to breathe, I'm afraid you'll be eaten by rats, insects and ants lying inside."

Chen Yan chattered to Lu Buxu, not like he was facing his father-in-law, but like he was facing an old friend.

Lu Bu had obviously lost the ability to think, and facing Chen Yan at this time, he was still expressionless, and his eyes did not blink, as if he was a puppet dummy.

Chen Yan saw it in his eyes and smiled bitterly in his heart, after all, the dead are gone, and Jia Xu can make him look like this, which is already against the sky.

When Chen Yan thought of this, he suddenly remembered the blood-colored ancient jade that Jia Xu placed in Lu Bu's chest, this thing is a rare treasure, it has the power to make the dead die without stiffening, and it is the key to restoring the dragon vein of the Great Han in the legend, Chen Yan never wants to lose him.

Chen Yan slowly stretched out his hand to Lu Bu's chest and rubbed it gently, wanting to feel the power of Gu Yu and relive the feeling at that time.

Unexpectedly, except for Lu Bu suddenly whispering a faint purring sound like a kitten, Chen Yan didn't feel any reaction from the blood-colored ancient jade.
