The next day, Zhao Yu asked Guo Jia to enter the palace, and as soon as he saw Guo Jia coming, Zhao Yu did not shy away from asking bluntly: "How about Guo Jia, the candidate for the army to go to Yizhou this time, do you have any good recommendations, I think you should already have a candidate in your heart when you come this day." ”"Your Majesty is really cunning, knowing that this matter may offend many people, but Your Majesty actually pushed all this matter on Guo Jia.As a result, Guo Jia didn't sleep well all night, and the threshold in the house was also trampled on, and the hard-earned one-month income was about to be taken out to repair the threshold.It seems that His Majesty is going to come up with some compensation or reward, otherwise how can he be worthy of being destroyed by His Majesty's heart. ”As soon as he heard Zhao Yu's words, Guo Jia actually made a very sad expression and said, looking at that look, it was as if he had really been greatly wronged.If this is the 21st century, if a director or talent scout sees a performance like Guo Jia, he must be given a Hollywood Best Performance Award.In the face of Guo Jia's grievances, Zhao Yu couldn't wait to step forward and kick him, only to hear Zhao Yu immediately say: "You stinky boy, don't complain about me here and call me poor."
If I'm not mistaken, the other day, you took your wife shopping.When you were tired of shopping, you ran to the tavern I invested, and I ordered a lot of delicious food, and finally you actually signed the bill, saying that I asked you to taste the taste of the new dish.You guy eats and drinks for nothing, and you still have the face to say I let you taste it, if it's not delicious, will I let the kitchen serve the food Instead of letting you taste it, why don't I taste it myself. ”Speaking of this, Zhao Yu couldn't help but show a wicked smile and said: "You know, those new dishes of mine are very expensive, I'm afraid that your consumption that day is enough to make up for it with your month's salary, as for the insufficient money, I will give you a discount." ”For Zhao Yu's refusal, I saw Guo Jia take a deep breath and say very decadently: "Okay, Your Majesty, you have won again, Guo Jia is speechless." ”"Stinky boy, let you dare to fight with me.To tell you the truth, although I am not as good as you in terms of advice, but in the midst of the fight, you want to fight me, and it is still far away, hehehe" Looking at Guo Jia's deflated appearance, Zhao Yu couldn't help laughing out loud, and that expression looked good.After laughing, Zhao Yu also felt bored, so he looked at Guo Jia again and asked: "Okay, let's stop making trouble, let's talk about who the candidates for this trip to Yizhou are, this is what I am most concerned about now." ”Guo Jia immediately bowed his hand and said: "Back to Your Majesty, Guo Jia has indeed thought of a suitable candidate after thinking about it all night, and even more of the strategies he has executed. ”Zhao Yu immediately rejoiced when he heard this: "Oh, it's really worthy of my left and right hands, with Guo Jia here, many of my thoughts will be solved, hurry up and tell me who the people and horses are on this trip" Guo Jia said unhurriedly: "Back to Your Majesty, this time Your Majesty sent troops to attack Yizhou, you need to pass through Bingzhou, arrive in Liangzhou, integrate with the soldiers and horses in Liangzhou and start sending troops."
However, due to the prominent terrain of Yizhou, if His Majesty wants to enter Yizhou, he must first take Hanzhong, the junction of Liangzhou and Bingzhou.Only after our army takes the entire Hanzhong can we continue to send troops south to Yizhou, otherwise with the topography of Hanzhong, our Zhao army will be intercepted. ”According to Guo Jia's strategy, the generals who are suitable for this campaign are Zhao Yun, the general of the auxiliary state, Tai Shici, the general of the Zhenguo, Yan Liang, the general of the Zhenjun, and Ma Chao, the general of Zhenwei.In addition, there are former generals Gao Shun, left general Wenxing, right general Pang De, Zhendong general Zhang Ren, leading general Deng Xian, escort general Liu Bi, Du Hu general Ling Bao, and the ministers are the prince and prince Xu Shu and Shaofu Lu Xun. ”"As for their respective lieutenants, they can be selected by the generals themselves, and the accompanying soldiers and horses are composed of the entire army of Liangzhou, 100,000 soldiers and horses of the Southern Xiongnu in Bingzhou, and 100,000 soldiers and horses in Jizhou.The White Tiger Cavalry, the Green Dragon Cavalry, the Trapping Camp, the Special Battalion, and the Bow and Crossbow Battalion must all be in battle. ”As soon as Guo Jia's voice fell, Zhao Yu was suddenly shocked, he never thought that Guo Jia would choose so many people this time.There are more than ten generals personally selected by Guo Jia alone, plus some deputy generals, this time the generals are the most of all the wars he has experienced.At that moment, Zhao Yu couldn't help but ask curiously: "Guo Jia, this time it's just an attack on Yizhou, do we really want to send so many people In this way, but a very strong lineup, almost all of my five tiger generals and unicorn generals have been dispatched." ”After Zhao Yu finished speaking, he only heard Guo Jia speak: "Back to Your Majesty, this attack on Yizhou is not child's play.Although His Majesty has been winning consecutive victories in the previous campaign, it is gratifying, but this attack on Yizhou is different.For example, today's strife is divided into four kingdoms, namely His Majesty's Zhao State, Cao Pi's Wei State, Liu Bei's Shu State, and Sun Quan's Wu State.Under the governance and leadership of His Majesty, the state of Zhao occupied half of the entire world, while Wei Shu and Wu occupied the other half.This time, His Majesty announced that he would send troops to attack Yizhou, which was the first battle since the establishment of our Zhao State, and it was also a particularly critical battle. ”"If Your Majesty is careless this time, or if you underestimate the other side and lose the battle, I am afraid that we will not be able to regroup our army again and engage the enemy army in the next ten years.In ten years, Shu and Wei, which are in Yizhou at the same time, will also begin to friction and integration, and eventually Shu will annex the remnants of Wei, and then take the opportunity to stabilize the entire Yizhou, and even subdue Nanban and other places.When the time comes, if Your Majesty wants to go to war again, it will be a bloody battle that will be even more difficult than it is now. ”"However, if Your Majesty can take this matter seriously, once our army captures Hanzhong, smoothly enters the land of Yizhou, and achieves victory.Then His Majesty's completion of the dream of dominating the world is a crucial and decisive step, and the rest is to see how long the Wu Kingdom can hold on.Although Wu now occupies Jingzhou, Yangzhou and Jiaozhou, due to the terrain and landform, Wu's grain, grass and troops are simply not enough to fight against our Zhao State.For Wu in land warfare, there is only self-defeat, and the only possibility is to fight on water, which is the advantage of our army. ”After Zhao Yu heard Guo Jia's analysis, he couldn't help but nod again and again, and then said to him: "Guo Jia's analysis is so thorough, it has saved me a lot of thoughts, but didn't Guo Jia say just now that attacking Yizhou this time is by no means an easy task, even if we raise a large army to march, we must not be able to capture Yizhou so easily."
If the war between the two sides drags on, I am afraid that it will be particularly disadvantageous for us to attack the side. ”Guo Jia hurriedly explained to Zhao Yu: "Your Majesty actually doesn't have to worry too much, as long as Your Majesty can guide all the soldiers this time, work together as one, with the bravery of the generals, coupled with the alliance of Guo Jia, Xun Yu, and Lu Xun, you will definitely be able to help Your Majesty achieve a key victory."
Moreover, with the topography of Yizhou, coupled with the strength of Yizhou, Shu and Wei, if you want to destroy its entire army, even if you dispatch all the troops of our Zhao State, it will be very difficult.After all, Yizhou is close to Jingzhou, once Yizhou falls into a crisis, Jingzhou will inevitably take action, but this time there are General Gan Ning and Lord Jia Xu sitting in Xuzhou, and the matter of defending Yangzhou in Xuzhou is also eyeing Yangzhou, attracting most of the troops of Eastern Wu at a critical time to not move. ”Hearing Guo Jia's words, Zhao Yu couldn't help frowning and said: "What Guo Jia means is that if the war between us and Yizhou starts, Jingzhou will send soldiers and horses to help" Guo Jia replied without hesitation: "No, if I were Zhou Yu, I would definitely not send troops into Yizhou to help." ”After Zhao Yu heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked, and hurriedly asked: "Why if my army enters Yizhou and launches a strong offensive against Cao Pi and Liu Bei, Shu and Wei will definitely not be able to support it, if there is no assistance from Wu, they will definitely be defeated, why won't Zhou Yu send troops and horses to help" Guo Jia spoke again: "Your Majesty, calm down and think carefully, you can understand."
Guo Jia has already said just now that the elite of Wu is a naval army, and the land of Yizhou Mountain Road, it is difficult to fight with our army with the combination of Shu and Wei.If Zhou Yu sent troops into Yizhou in order to rescue Shu Wei, it would be equivalent to attacking the strength of our army with his own shortcomings.Therefore, Guo Jia thought that with Zhou Yu's cleverness, he would never do such a stupid thing.That would be equivalent to sending the naval army of Eastern Wu to Yizhou to send them to death. ”After Guo Jia's on-demand, Zhao Yu suddenly realized, and couldn't help but sigh at Guo Jia's cleverness and carefulness, and immediately hurriedly said: "After you say this, it's true, but I haven't been able to find this problem, I really don't know how Guo Jia found this problem." ”Guo Jia shook his head and smiled: "It's a shame to say, in fact, Guo Jia was also encouraged at first, until Guo Jia has been studying and pondering the offensive strategy against Yizhou in recent days, and he didn't find out about this matter."
At the beginning, His Majesty formed an alliance with Sun Quan, and it stands to reason that Sun Quan should not break with our army and re-establish a relationship with Liu Bei after being betrayed by Liu Bei.Our two armies jointly negotiated the oath to march west together, but Sun Quan actually did not act, especially when our army attacked Xiliang, although Zhou Yu, who was in Jingzhou, although his troops and horses marched into the boundary of Yizhou, he did not give the order to send troops in the end. ”"If Zhou Yu doesn't intend to be an enemy of Yizhou, then Zhou Yu has no need to drive his troops and horses to the border of Yizhou, in that case, even if he doesn't fight, he will also express his stance to Liu Bei in action, which is equivalent to offending the other party.However, Guo Jia recently wanted to discover this problem, Zhou Yu did not want to order an attack, but Zhou Yu found a problem, Yizhou is a mountain road, and many soldiers of the naval army in Jingzhou, even if it is a few infantry, have suffered many casualties when the army fought with the Wei army before. ”"If you attack Yizhou this time, not only will you not be able to capture half of Yizhou, but you will also sacrifice countless Jiangdong children in vain.Therefore, after Zhou Yu drove his troops and horses at the boundary of Yizhou, he kept garrisoning his troops and did not take the next step. ”:
