Chapter 154 Believe in your own judgment

(Thank you for your strong comments and rewards. I went out to exercise my waist and back this weekend. There is only one update. I'm sorry.)

Cao Yan was not used to lying down. At this time, he felt that his legs and feet were a little numb. He stood up and turned around the table a few times. He looked at the meticulous elder who sat upright and said with a smile, "Wen Ruo, it seems that you already know Jingzhou's chess."

The elder is the first counselor of Cao Yan, Xun Yu.

Once upon a time, Cao Qian would consult Xun Yu every time he encountered something, but since he was promoted to prime minister, he has become more and more inclined to be arbitrary in many things. However, the defeat of Chibi made Cao Qian realize that he was not the omnipotent hero. At present, in the matter of Jingzhou, he specially invited Xun Yu, who was already the third prince, to listen to his opinion.

Since this person followed him, there has been no way out. Such an incredible record, even Cao Wei feels a little incredible.

That wise mind has made Cao's heart feel afraid.

Xun Yu continued to sit down, ignoring Cao Yan, who was swaying in front of him, and said in a hurry: "Zhou Yugong is the master of Gao Zhenzhu. Sun Quan borrowed Nanjun from Liu Bei. Obviously, he wanted to suppress Zhou Yu and at the same time free up his hand to enter Hefei. As for the marriage to Liu Feng, he was nothing more than worried about Liu Bei and used Liu Feng to counterbalance Liu Bei. Such a triangular alliance seems to be stable, but in fact, it has its own ghosts. It is an excellent opportunity for us to use our tricks.

Xun Yu's eyes have always been as bright as a mirror. It seems that nothing in the world can escape his unfathomable eyes. Now his analysis of Jingzhou is also in line with Cao Qian's original intention.

Cao Wei gently brushed his short beard, with a secret and proud smile in his eyes.

Xun Yu couldn't be more familiar with that kind of expression. He knew that he didn't need to say much. The hero in front of him had his own calculation in his heart.

..................

Linxiang City, late at night.

The ears are full of the low roar of the wind, snoring, like the prey in the eyes of the beast quietly persecuting, and the desire for flesh and blood aroused a heavy throat.

The weeds, which are more than half of a person, trembled, like frightened prey. They involuntarily swayed their thin and helpless bodies. They fell to the ground in fear, and then bowed their backs and nodded timidly.

Liu Feng separated the indetible grass waves. With the light of the stars and the moon, his blade-like eyes searched for any suspicious traces in the darkness.

The wind is getting more and more fierce, passing through the undulating hills and whining in my ears. Occasionally, one or two wolf howlings are sandwiched in it, which is particularly sad in my ears.

In the dark night, there is still no sign of abnormality.

'It's already the third watch, and there is no action yet. Is my speculation wrong?'

Liu Feng began to have a slight doubt about his judgment.

A few days ago, shortly after he returned to Linxiang City, the Jiangxia Army stationed on the shore of the Xiang River in the west of the city began to show signs of withdrawing. Liu Feng knew that this was Guan Yu's withdrawal order from Liu Bei and had to prepare to lead the army back to the north.

Liu Ba and most of the civil and military people believed that under the intervention of Eastern Wu, Guan Yu had no choice but to swallow this bitter water and reluctantly withdraw his troops to the north.

Liu Feng didn't think so. He knew very well that Guan Yu's contempt for the world. He could never give up revenge for his son so easily. Even with Liu Bei's order, Guan Yu would not retreat easily.

In Liu Feng's view, Guan Yu's withdrawal is just an illusion.

After the latest information was sent back this morning. After learning that a large number of Jiangxia's main soldiers and horses had sailed out of the Xiangshui camp on the sailors, Liu Feng was keenly aware that Guan Yu would definitely kill them tonight and take advantage of the slack of Linxiang City to kill them unprepared.

However, a thousand ambush soldiers ambushed in the grass outside the West City for most of the night, but there was still no abnormal movement. It seemed that this time, Liu Feng's judgment was wrong.

'No, I can't be wrong. If Guan Yu withdraws troops obediently, he doesn't deserve to be called Guan Yu.'

Liu Feng once again strengthened his judgment and sent the order to continue, so that the whole army should not relax and continue to be ready.

An hour passed in a blink of an eye.

Liu Feng couldn't help looking east. The moonlight gently sprinkled on the quiet Linxiang City. With his plain white hand, he faintly outlined the outline of the city with hazy lines. The city under the moon is like a sleeping child, lying quietly on the edge of the glittering Xiangshui, peaceful and peaceful.

Liu Feng's heart can't be quiet.

The soldiers behind

gradually became anxious. After all, after a long period of high alertness, at this dawn, people's spirit is also the most anxious moment.

At this moment, a dark shadow came out of the cracks of the gate, crossed the suspension bridge, and quietly rushed to the direction where the ambush was.

A moment later, Liu Feng got the latest information in the city: there was a strange movement in the tunnel near the west gate.

A touch of excitement surged on the handsome face in an instant. Liu Feng sneered and said, "I guessed right. Guan Yu, you finally can't stand loneliness."

When Liu Bei went to Yangling, although Guan Yu was strictly ordered not to attack Linxiang City again, Guan Yu was not idle. Instead, it took nearly a month to secretly dig a tunnel and reach the west gate of Lincheng.

Obviously, Guan Yu underestimated the experience of Huang Zhong and others.

Huang Zhong had earlier expected that Guan Yu was likely to use the strategy of digging tunnels secretly, so he ordered people to bury a large jar at the root of the city wall at intervals, and sent people to monitor the movement from the ground every day.

Therefore, ten days ago, Huang Zhong determined the direction of the tunnel and made relevant preparations. As long as Guan Yu dared to send someone to sneak in from under the tunnel, Huang Zhong would mercilessly let the enemies sneak in.

However, Guan Yu's withdrawal seems to make Huang Zhong's preparations no longer useful.

After a cup of tea, there was a lot of killing around the west gate. Not long, the gate was opened, and the suspension bridge was also cut off. Above the head of the city, a blazing beacon rose into the sky, and it was clearly visible for dozens of miles.

None of the continuous information was inconsistent with Liu Feng's speculation. The Jiangxia army, which had sneaked in from the tunnel, launched a surprise attack on the Ximen area. According to the previous plan, after the symbolic resistance, the defenders on the front line of the west gate pretended to be caught off guard and gave up the gate to the stolen enemy.

"It's almost done. Let the brothers cheer up!"

Under the low shout, the order quickly spread in the grass, and the anxious mood quickly became excited. In the dark, the bright eyes flashed with the burning fighting spirit.

Liu Feng could even feel that the boiling blood actually dispelled the chill of the night and made his blood steam up.

"Lord, there is the sound of horses' hoofs under the ground!" A soldier who listened carefully shouted in surprise.

Liu Feng took a deep breath, opened the grass and looked west. Under the moonlight, there were countless darkness surging, as if ghosts from hell were breaking through the door of hell and killing the world.
