Chapter 57 Nansun Liu divided the three states Sima Yi to slaughter the royal family 2

Nanye learned from Guo Jia's analysis that although Yanzhou has the largest population, money and grain, it is also the most difficult to obtain. If Nanye has not captured Yanzhou after Liu Bei and Sun Quan took Bingzhou and Qingzhou, then they can enter Yanzhou from the east and west respectively, and can also help Nanye. In the end, it is likely that Nanye carried the soldiers and horses of Xuchang, Chen Liu and Yecheng, and let Liu Bei and Sun Quan pick up the city. However, nothing is absolute. On the other hand, if Nanye can quickly take Yanzhou, it will indeed take a big advantage.

From the analysis of the current situation, if Nanye's Jiaozhou army bypassed Xuchang and entered Yanzhou, and Liu Bei and Sun Quan invaded Bingzhou and Qingzhou, then Cao Pi in Yecheng would get a false information - Xu Chang lost. In this case, as long as Cao Pi is a little timid and weak, he will not dare to let the army leave the city, because once the army leaves the city and the battle with Nanye is delayed for a long time, Liu Bei and Sun Quan may enter Ye City. Therefore, Cao Pi is more likely to defend Yecheng, and Nanye does not have to worry too much about the reinforcements of Yecheng.

What worries Nanye most is Li Ru of Xuchang. If he enters Yanzhou, Li Ru can completely cut off his back road. Those boulders outside the city are a serious obstacle to the siege equipment, but they are of little significance for preventing soldiers and horses from leaving the city. Now Nanye recalls that when Zhuge Liang mentioned that the boulder hindered Cao's army, it was likely that it was just to pave the way for the plan of division and attack.

Now that the plan has been decided and the territory has been divided, it is meaningless for Nan Ye to regret it again, so he asked Guo Jia, "That's it. What should I do?"

Guo Jia thought that Nan Ye would complain that he was still clumsy and didn't remind him just now, but he didn't expect that Nan Ye had no intention of blaming him at all, which moved Guo Jia very much. He had a plan in his heart, so he said to Nan Ye, "It's not difficult for the national division to take Yanzhou quickly. You just need to attack with all your strength."

Nan Ye frowned and said, "I will wait for all three people to go. What if Xuchang Cao Jun cut off my way back?"

Guo Jia smiled and said, "Naturally, the soldiers and horses in the city dare not leave lightly. However, this plan requires the national teacher to sit here and borrow something from the king of Guanzhong and the king of Wu..."

When Nan Ye found Liu Bei and Sun Quan to borrow flags, camps and armor from them, Zhuge Liang and Lu Su guessed that Nan Ye was going to trap Li Ru's soldiers and horses in Xuchang City with virtual soldiers. Nan Ye did not care about Liu Bei and Sun Quan when he divided the troops, which also made it difficult for them to refuse Nan Ye's request. What's more, it was good for the three families to trap Xu Chang and Cao's army. Therefore, Liu Bei and Sun Quan each borrowed 10,000 sets of numbered clothes to Nan Ye, and the camp and flags were also left to Nan Ye.

When the Thunderbolt car outside the city roared again, the Cao army stationed on the wall no longer had the panic in front of the stone bombs at the beginning, but quickly ran down the wall in turn and hid behind the wall. However, there were still a few unlucky Cao soldiers who turned into blood mud and stayed on the wall.

The roar of the Thunderbolt did not scare Li Ru in Xuchang City, but made him feel very strange. Generally speaking, the boulders outside the city have explained their intentions, and the Thunderbolt car has been dumb for two days. Li Ru doesn't understand why the three people still have to do such useless work.

If something goes wrong, it will be a demon. Li Ru really wants to go to the city to see what happened. However, the boulder flying across the sky made him give up the idea, but ordered the soldiers to go to the city to have a look. And Li Ru's reward is that all three people are unmoved.

Li Ru knew that it was impossible to order the soldiers to stay at the head of the city and keep an eye on the three-way people at this time, so he could only let the soldiers explore again after a while. This time, the soldiers really brought back the news and reported: "The soldiers and horses outside the city are taking the opportunity to carry the huge stones outside the city."

Hearing the soldier's report, Li Ru smiled and said, "It turned out that he wanted to use the Thunderbolt car to suppress the crossbow to clean up the boulder, but I won't let you wait for it." After saying that, Li Ru summoned Cao Zhang and other generals and ordered them to shoot with a Thunderbolt car in the city. Although the random shooting of the Thunderbolt car is not as accurate as the crossbow, it can also pose a threat to the soldiers carrying boulders outside the city, and Li Ru believes that the speed of throwing stones must be faster than that outside the city.

When Nan Ye saw that the Thunderbolt cars in the city also began to show their power, he ordered Wei and Zhou Cang to inform Liu Bei and Sun Quan that they could withdraw their troops. At this time, the Thunderbolt car outside the city and the people who cleaned up the boulders were actually Nanye's Jiaozhou soldiers. Liu Bei and Sun Quan had already prepared to withdraw their troops in the camp, and waited for Li Ru to retreat unconsciously.

Li Ru thought he had seen through Nan Ye's plan, but ordered people to fight back with a Thunderbolt car, but he no longer took the risk of going to the city to check the movement. In this way, I didn't know that Liu Bei and Sun Quan's army had retreated and besieged the city as three soldiers and horses.

After Liu Bei and Sun Quan withdrew their troops, Nan Ye began to prepare for his brigade to leave Xuchang to attack Yanzhou. Outside Liu Bei and Sun Quan, Nan Ye ordered soldiers to transform the Thunderbolt car outside the city overnight, transforming a generation of Thunderbolt cars into simplified Thunderbolt vehicles. This kind of Thunderbolt car later developed by the Jiaozhou Academy of Sciences is not only more powerful and longer, but also uses fewer materials and simpler to operate. As long as a generation of Thunderbolt is slightly improved, it can be formed, which is very time-saving.

The purpose of Nanye's transformation of the Thunderbolt car is not to attack the city, but to save manpower, so that the firepower will not be reduced after the reduction of troops and will not be discovered by Li Ru.

Originally, 10,000 soldiers were enough to simplify the operation of the Thunderbolt car, but just in case, Guo Jia forced to leave 30,000 horses for Nanye. Among them, 10,000 Jiaozhou army, 10,000 Tengjia army and 10,000 Jiaozhou cavalry, and Gao Shun's fall is also left to Nanye. Even if Li Ru leads troops out of the city, Nanye also has the strength to fight. What's more, Nan Ye is surrounded by Dian Wei, Zhou Cang, Zhang Baiqi, Ma Yunqi, Zhu Ronghuabei and a group of guards. Guo Jia led Zhao Yun, Yang Xiong, Huang Zhong, Huang Xu and Wei Yan to take Yanzhou.

Nanye's fate, Wei and Zhou Cang led 10,000 soldiers to change into Liu Bei's armor to impersonate Liu Bei's men and horses. Gao Shun and Zhang Bai led 10,000 soldiers to impersonate Sun Quanren and horses, while Nan Ye himself took Ma Yunqi and Hua Bei to stay in the camp. What Nanye has to do every day is to show up under the city so that Cao Jun in the city can know that he has not left.

The firepower of the Thunderbolt car outside the city has increased but increased. Nanye, as the commander of the three armies, has been supervising the war day by day. Li Ru and Cao's army in the city have not found that the 300,000 troops outside the city have become 30,000, let alone that the three places of Bingzhou, Yanzhou and Qingzhou have already become beacon smoke.

However, Guo Jia and Zhao Yun said that they bypassed Xuchang all the way to the boundary of Yanzhou, and everywhere they went was expected to fall. On the one hand, it was because of the strength of the Jiaozhou army, and on the other hand, it was because the Cao army in Yanzhou gathered in Xuchang, and the counties were rarely prepared, which made Guo Jia hit Chen Liucheng all the way.

Chen Liu's Zhang was once a Jing Zhaoyin and was deeply valued by Cao Cao. After Cao Cao died, Si Li was obtained by Nan Ye, and Zhang was assigned by Cao Pi to guard Chen Liu. When Zhang learned that Nanye's soldiers and horses had invaded the territory, Zhang thought that Xu Chang had been lost. On the one hand, he sent people to inform Cao Pi and gathered Yanzhou soldiers and horses in the city, which was also one of the reasons why Guo Jia did not hinder him all the way.

Zhang knew that Chen Liu was the last barrier in Ye City. Once Chen Liu was lost, Yanzhou was lost, and Nan Ye, Liu Bei and Sun Quan could go to Ye City. Therefore, Zhang made up his mind to defend Chen Liu and wait for Yecheng's reinforcements.

Zhao Yun went to Chen Liucheng and saw that the gate was closed, so he shouted under the city. How dare Zhang go out of the city when he sees Zhao Yun? Just order people to shoot arrows. As soon as Zhao Yun saw the Cao army at the head of the city and the flag fluttering, he knew that there were many people in the city. So Zhao Yun ordered the former army to camp and wait for Guo Jia's brigade to arrive before discussing.

Just as Zhao Yun was camping, a gust of wind suddenly rose, and suddenly there were dark clouds, and bean-sized raindrops fell down. As soon as Zhao Yun saw the heavy rain coming so fast, he knew that the people behind him would be drenched, and hurriedly ordered the soldiers to speed up the camp.

When Guo Jia, Huang Zhong and Wei Yan led the brigade arrived, everyone was soaked. Wei Yan entered the account and complained, "Why did it suddenly rain in this damn weather?"

Huang Zhong was strong and didn't care about getting some rain. Instead, he smiled and said, "It's cool when it rains down."

Guo Jia asked Zhao Yun while wiping the rain on his body, "Zilong arrived first. What's the situation in the city?"

Zhao Yun replied, "Chen Liu's wall is not high, but it is very strong, and there are many soldiers and horses in the city, about tens of thousands of people. The guard is Zhang Ji, and I'm afraid it is not easy to persuade him to surrender."

Guo Jia was very satisfied to see that Zhao Yun had received so much news and set up the camp, "Thank you for your hard work, Zilong."

Zhao Yun said, "Camping and exploring the way is a pioneer, and there is no need to praise the military division. It's just that I don't have fewer soldiers and horses in the city than I do. Do the military division have a clever plan?

Wei Yan said without waiting for Guo Jia to speak, "Why do you need him to break this small city? First build a Thunderbolt car to destroy its morale, and then build a ladder to attack it.

Guo Jia smiled and said, "Wen Chang's plan is also good, but it takes a long time to build equipment. If you want to get to Yanzhou quickly, you still need to make a strange plan and wait for me to watch the terrain."

The heavy rain stopped for a long time, but the dark clouds in the sky did not disperse. I don't know when it will rain again. Guo Jia took advantage of the rain and led the generals out of the camp, climbed to a highland on the edge of the city, and looked around the city. Cao's army in the city is not limited, and the estimated number is as many as 70,000 to 80,000. If it is a strong attack, it may be difficult to take advantage of it. Guo Jia saw that the water on the edge of the city was turbulent and flowing endlessly, so he called the guide officer and asked, "The river here is very urgent. A rain is not like this, but it often rains in recent days?"

The guide said, "In August and September, there are often heavy rains in autumn, which has been the case over the years."

Guo Jia smiled and said, "I have a plan!" After saying that, he went back to the camp and ordered the soldiers to cut wood into boats and clean up the rain gear.

Wei Yan asked Guo Jia curiously, "Why do you need a boat to attack the city in drylands?"

Guo Jia said, "Yanzhou is the place where Dayu governs water, and the river is often flooded. Now the autumn rain continues, and the water is bound to rise. I have sent people upstream to block all the water outlets. When the rain is heavy, we will take a boat and flood the water. Chen Liu's soldiers are all fish and turtles.

All the generals were convinced by the words and went down to prepare. Seeing that the crowd left the account, Guo Jia couldn't help sighing and said, "The water and fire are ruthless. I'm afraid that the people in this battle city will suffer. I hope the national teacher won't blame me."
