Chapter 310 Hidden Tall
Thinking of this, Zhang Ji, who was sitting at the main table, quickly snapped off the idea of retreat, and then looked at Li Xu under the table, who directly turned his eyes to Jia Xu.
Jia Xu didn't say a word. Jia Xu didn't speak, and Li Xu didn't dare to speak. He quickly shook his head at Zhang Ji, saying that he didn't pay attention. Zhang Ji sighed angrily and waved his hand to let Li Xu and Jia Xu leave.
"Wen He na. Nowadays, there is a shortage of food and fodder, and morale is low. What's wrong with this? Please teach me.
After leaving the tent, Li Xu looked sincere and bowed to Jia Xu. Jia Xu looked at Li Xu and said lightly.
"If so, now I call General Li and General Zhang to withdraw their troops, go back to Luoyang, take the crime to Dong Gong and explain his strength, and then make a military order, reorganize the army, and then fight against Hedong. Will General Li agree? Will General Zhang agree again?
Li Cui's expression was stunned, and Dong Zhuo's anger rose in his mind. His neck couldn't help shrinking and timidly.
"None. Dong Gong's temperament, Wen and you know it. If he is angry, I'm afraid I can't keep my head.
"That's why I asked you to make a military order. Although Dong Gong is grumpy, there is a Li Zhongling around him. Today's defeat is all because at the critical moment, General Guo underestimated the enemy and did not pay enough attention to the strength of the Hedong Army.
Now, both General Zhang and General Li have suffered, and they will definitely be more cautious about the enemy next time. In this way, it will be difficult for the Hedong Army to find a gap. As long as General Li and General Zhang make up their minds to conquer Hedong, their ambition will certainly infect Dong Gong and Li Zhongling. At that time, Mr. Dong will not blame you more, but will strongly support you and let you make up for your achievements.
Li Ru pondered for a while, and finally he was afraid of Dong Zhuo's blame and hesitated to prey.
"This matter still makes me think more about it. Today, we still have 40,000 troops under our command. Although there is little grain and fodder, it can last for two months. And after all, I'm not a military general, and General Zhang is not so easy to convince..."
Hearing Li Ru's words, Jia Xu shook his head on the spot. After sighing, he ignored him and left alone.
At the same time, in Yanshi City.
"Lord, today's battle is all my fault. I didn't expect that there would be a master in the Liangzhou army to see through my plan, which almost killed General Gao and made a big mistake. He was willing to be punished!"
"No, third brother. It's because Gongming didn't find the trick of the Liangzhou army earlier. The blame lies with me. It has nothing to do with the military division, so let me bear it alone.
"The military division and the four generals are not at fault. It was the general who was stupid and didn't know how to evacuate in time, which caused today's crisis. This is all the last part!"
"Okay, you all get up. Zhicai, Boyi, Gongming, you are not at fault in today's battle. If you hadn't responded to the changes, I'm afraid the loss will be greater now.
Yanshi's county government was temporarily requisitioned by Wen Han. In the county government hall, Wen Han helped Xi Long, Xu Huang and Gao Shun. When the three of them came back, they knelt down and pleaded guilty. Wen Han knew that he could not blame the three of them in today's battle. After comforting them for a while, he tried to remove the guilt and shadow of Xilong and other three people.
In today's battle, two thousand soldiers and horses led by Xu Huang were killed, and the losses of the soldiers and horses led by Gao Shun were even more terrible. More than 3,000 people were killed in the battle, and 2,000 were slightly injured and seriously injured. The cavalry led by Wen Han was killed in a small battle, with only two or three hundred people. But even so, the number of casualties has reached nearly 7,000 or 8,000. It is nearly one-third of the strength of the Hedong Army.
It is no wonder that Xilong, Xu Huang and Gao Shun look so ugly and guilty. However, Wen Han didn't expect that they sank into the painful and frustrating choices of the past, so he changed the topic.
"Who is the tall man of this Liangzhou army? He seems to be able to see everything we do. If today, it is not Zhicai who is in a hurry and knows how to burn grain to turn the table, the consequences will be really unimaginable.
Speaking of this tall man, Xilong's face condensed, and his originally gloomy eyes immediately burst into glory.
"Lord, this man's tricks are vicious, and all he plots are to force people to death. In my opinion, this person's strategy is better than Li Ru, Dong Zhuo's think tank. It's just that such a person, how can he be unknown? Under Dong Zhuo's command, except for Li Ru, he has never heard of such a sharp counselor.
From this point of view, this person is not only scheming and vicious, but also good at hiding. If I had known that this master was hidden in the Liangzhou army, I would never have made such a hasty plan.
Poisonous and good at hiding? Wen Han narrowed his eyes and quickly read the counselors under Dong Zhuo's command recorded in history in his mind.
Suddenly, Wen Han's eyes stared, and he couldn't wait to slap himself several times.
"Daw!! Why did I forget this character!!"
Wen Han cried sadly in his heart. He remembered a super counselor who he must not take lightly. That is Jia Xu, who is known as a 'drug man'. He is full of tricks and has no choice. First, he served as a counselor in Li Wei's account, and then after Li Wei and others failed, he became a counselor of Zhang Xiu.
Zhang Xiu used his strategy to defeat Cao Cao twice and almost killed the peerless Cao Cao. If SARS Wei loyally protects the Lord, he will block Zhang Xiu's army with the strength of one person. I'm afraid that Cao Cao will die in Wancheng, and Cao Cao's eldest son Cao Ang also died in that battle.
As Xi Long said, Jia Xu made a plan, the plan was vicious, and forced people to die. Because Jia Xu's strategy is excellent, even if Jia Xu murdered Cao Cao's beloved general and eldest son, Cao Cao did not want to kill him. Instead, he reused Jia Xu and won Jia Xu's sincerity and showed his true character.
Later, Jia Xu did not disappoint Cao Cao. Cao Cao fought against Yuan Shao in Guandu, Tongguan broke through Xiliang, Ma Chao and Han Sui, all of whom were Jia Xu.
At the same time, Jia Xu played an important role in the issue of Cao Cao's succession. Because he secretly assisted Cao Pi. Cao Pi later named his official as a lieutenant and the marquis of Wei Shouxiang. Moreover, it is said that Sima Yi was most afraid of them in Cao Cao's group all his life. Before they died, he did not dare to show his ambitions. One is, of course, the peerless hero Cao Cao, and the other is the poisoner Jia Xu!
At the same time, Jia Xu is good at hiding, which shows what he did after he joined Cao Cao. Jia Xu often keeps his guard behind closed doors, does not associate with others in private, and his children do not marry and marry powerful people. And he never competes with others for success, but he always knows when Cao Cao needs him, and his plan is at the most suitable time.
In a later generation, a critic and master once commented on Jia Xu. Jia Xu was able to judge the situation in troubled times. He lived for the longest time and saved his family. This is the real great wisdom. Jia Xu may be the smartest person in the Three Kingdoms period.
Wen Han doesn't know whether Jia Xu is the smartest person in the Three Kingdoms period, but he is sure that this person is absolutely terrible, because today, Wen Han has tried his viciousness. Today's battle is also the most costly in his history!
Thinking of Jia Xu, Wen Han's face was afraid for a while. Xi Long saw that Wen Han's face was full of cold sweat and his face was dull. He called Wen Han several times before Wen Han realized it.
"Zhicai, pass on the order. If you increase your defense, you must not attack rashly. The tall man's name is Jia Xu. You can't relax a little bit against this person!"
This is the first time that Xilong has seen Wen Han so solemn, which is so solemn that it makes people feel that he has a trace of fear. Xilong didn't realize that he was a little nervous and nod heavily.
The first battle between the Hedong Army and the Liangzhou Army, which was conquered by him, ended in both defeats. A few days later, there was no movement between the two sides. Because Wen Han found the existence of Jia Xu, he was cautious about everything, and only had the idea of guarding the city. Zhang Ji, a general of Liangzhou, also led Li Sui, Jia Xu and other generals to observe Yanshi City. Seeing that Yanshi had built a urn city, he was completely in a posture of waiting for the enemy to attack, and Zhang Ji had a big head.
"Is this extraordinary article? If you had known that the Dong Guild had sent troops to fight? Otherwise, how can this Yanshi be so well-prepared, and the urn city can be newly built at a glance.
Zhang Ji shook his head and his face was full of distress. With the passage of time, there will be less and less food in his army, and less and less time left for him.
Jia Xu, who was beside him, looked at the solid Yanshi, and also secretly appreciated it. He didn't realize that he valued Wen Han's Hedong Group.
Zhang Ji thought for a long time, but he didn't think of how to break through Yanshi City. In addition to Yanshi City, if he wants to attack Hedong, he must borrow the way to Hanoi or go far away from Hongnong. At present, time is running out, and it is absolutely impossible to go to Hongnong. As for Yuan Benchu, the governor of Hanoi, who has just turned against Dong Zhuo, it is almost impossible to lend him a way. Therefore, if Zhang Ji wants to attack Hedong, he has no choice but to break through Yanshi City.
Zhang Jilian sighed and thought that Li urged Lianlian to say a wonderful plan that day, so he asked him how to do it. And Li's stomach has no ink at all. Er, er, after a long time, it's not easy to ask Jia Xu in person. He had to tell Zhang Ji that he couldn't think of any way to defeat the enemy for a while, so he asked Zhang Ji to give him a little more time.
Zhang Ji was very helpless. After observing Yan Shicheng for a long time, he led the troops away.
In the next few days, Li Xu often pestered Jia Xu, which was a good persuasion and a bad threat, but Jia Xu was determined and did not want to come up with another strategy to excuse Li Xu on the excuse of being helpless.
After that day, Jia Xu persuaded Li to go back to Luoyang to re-replete and fight again. Li didn't listen. The interest that Jia Xu originally mentioned was completely gone. In addition, he has seen Yanshi's defensive measures. Unless a strange strategy is implemented, it is basically impossible to break through it within two months.
At this time, Jia Xu doesn't want to show his talents too much, among which there are many reasons. Of course, the most important point is that Jia Xu is not optimistic that Dong Zhuo can get the world.
Jia Xu had no idea, and Li Xu certainly became a mute. When Zhang Ji saw that Li Chu had not thought of breaking the enemy's strategy for many days, he no longer hesitated and prepared to attack Yanshi City.
On the day when Zhang Ji made the decision to attack Yanshi, Jia Xu happened to get sick and asked Zhang Ji and Li to go back to Luoyang to recover. Zhang Ji saw that Jia Xu's face was pale and pale, and he rarely spoke in the army, but he promised him. As for Li Xu, Jia Xu refused to make suggestions for him. It was better to be quiet than to be blind. Moreover, he looked depressed and didn't look like pretending to be sick, so he didn't stop him much.
So Li urged to send a team of more than a dozen soldiers to escort Jia Xu back to Luoyang. Jia Xu walked halfway, stopped in a river bank, and guarded Dubo Road next to him.
"Chen Bing went to f for water and wash my face."
This uncle is also from Wuwei, Liangzhou. He comes to Jia Xu's fellow countryman, and he especially respects Jia Xu. Jia Xu also regarded him as his confidant and secretly helped him from a pawn to a Dubo under the command of Li Xu. Chen Bing was grateful to Jia Xu in his heart, and even vaguely regarded Jia Xu as his master.
After Chen Bing answered respectfully, he got off the horse and took the bamboo tube to fetter water for Jia Xu. After coming back, he handed the bamboo tube to Jia Xu and opened his mouth as if he wanted to say anything.
