Chapter 1018: The Layout on the Eve of the Great War


Hearing Zhao Yu say this, the crown prince Zhao Can was quite unconvinced and said: "Then what is Sima Yi's ability, if he really has the ability, he would have jumped out and commanded the soldiers and horses of the Wei State to fight against my Zhao army, and he would not have been defeated like this now." ”Zhao Yu shook his head and said: "Sima Yi's power lies in this, if when the Wei State is strong, if Sima Yi leads the Wei army to defeat my Zhao State, it will not be able to show Sima Yi's intelligence."

It is very likely that it was taken the opportunity to say that it was the credit of the leading generals, or that the soldiers were extremely brave.But now that many of the generals and virtuous ministers of the Wei State have all been defeated and captured or surrendered to our army, it can be said that the entire Wei State has suffered a devastating blow, if Sima Yi suddenly stands up and leads the Wei army to fight with our army, and turns defeat into victory, then Sima Yi's position will be one person under ten thousand people. ”After Zhao Yu finished speaking, Xu Huang couldn't help but sigh: "Your Majesty is right, Sima Yi is really very cunning, since the reign of Emperor Wei Wu, he has hinted that Sima Yi has the appearance of a wolf, so you must be cautious."

However, Sima Yi was very forbearant and had been cautious, so that Emperor Wu Wei had no chance to catch him.It wasn't until after the first emperor succeeded to the throne that Sima Yi began to show his intelligence little by little, and even slowly reached out to take over some political power. ”"Especially this time, when Emperor Cao Pi wanted to give up the war with the Zhao army and lead the Wei State to surrender to the Zhao State, he actually showed his ruthless side.Waiting for the opportunity to assassinate the first emperor Cao Pi, blame me Xu Huang, and then push Cao Pi's son Cao Rui to be the emperor, winning the reputation of a meritorious hero, so that he grasped the power of Wei in one fell swoop, and even most of the military circles began to become Sima Yi's minions. ”"Sima Yi can have this mind, after all, he is a person who is good at calculation, and Sima Yi belongs to that kind of person, as long as the matter is not over, he can always endure the loss, and even the whole process is lost to you, making you self-righteous.But at the last critical moment, he can turn defeat into victory in one fell swoop, let everything in front of you fail, and directly defeat you when you are proud, and fall from the sky to the ground. ”As soon as Xu Huang's voice fell, Zhao Yu couldn't help but add: "Laughing until the end is considered a victory, and anything can happen until the last moment." ”Xu Huang couldn't help but be stunned, and immediately exclaimed: "Your Majesty is really wise and powerful, what he said is different, and he clearly expressed all the meanings that Xu Huang wanted to say in one sentence." ”Immediately, I only heard Zhao Yu speak: "Okay, I won't say much about it this time, let's listen to Guo Jia's opinions and suggestions."

After all, whether you can take Jiangzhou or not is the most critical thing, otherwise everything is empty talk. ”After speaking, Zhao Yu turned his gaze to Guo Jia and asked: "Okay, Guo Jia tell me your opinion this time, for our next attack on Jiangzhou, do you have any good proposals" In an instant, everyone focused their eyes on Guo Jia, waiting for Guo Jia's words, but they didn't want Guo Jia to smile slightly, and said lightly: "Wei is now in a crumbling situation, but even so, there are still capable soldiers in Wei State."

If we fight with them and the other party can't defend it, then we will waste our strength in vain.On the contrary, he will give the other party enough time to replenish his troops, material and financial resources, so Guo Jia's suggestion is to attack Jiangzhou and take Jiangzhou at all costs, so that the other party will not have a chance to breathe. ”Zhao Yu couldn't help but be a little surprised by Guo Jia's decision this time, originally thinking that he would see a match between Guo Jia and Sima Yi, but he didn't want Guo Jia to change his usual routine and take Jiangzhou by attack.However, Zhao Yu also somewhat agreed with what Guo Jia said, many times some schemes will delay the whole battle for a long time, especially top strategists like Sima Yi and Guo Jia, if it is a battle on the battlefield, it is fine.If it is such an offensive and defensive battle, I am afraid that it may be delayed for several months, and only Army B will suffer at that time.I only heard Xu Huang say with some eagerness: "But even if the strength of the Wei State at this moment is not as good as before, but with the ability of Sima Yi of the Wei State and the existing troops, it will also make Jiangzhou impregnable."

If such a strong attack is carried out, I am afraid that it will be extremely disadvantageous to our army, and even suffer heavy losses. ”Guo Jia smiled at Xu Huang and said: "General Xu Huang doesn't need to worry, there are high-grade artifacts in our army, and they will only be used when it is critical, and this time it will come in handy." ”Hearing the two words Guo Jia said, Xu Huang couldn't help but be full of doubts, but when he saw that everyone was calm, Xu Huang believed that everyone was not lying.It's just that for the word artifact, Xu Huang's mind is full of incomparable imagination, and he is also looking forward to seeing how powerful the so-called artifact in Guo Jia's mouth is, and how it can break through Jiangzhou.As soon as the plan of attack was decided, everyone dispersed and began to prepare.Because Xu Huang and others had just joined the Zhao army, most of the soldiers under his command were injured and bedridden, so Zhao Yu did not let him directly participate in the siege plan.After the rest of the people left, Guo Jia stayed and said to Zhao Yu: "Your Majesty, Xu Huang is a new member of our army, so there are some things that Guo Jia is inconvenient to say in front of him. ”After finishing speaking, Guo Jia changed his expression and said to Zhao Yu again: "After our army takes Baishui City, the plan of dividing the troops into multiple routes is to attack quickly.Previously, Zhao Yun and the crown prince hurried down from the southeast and broke through a number of city camps one after another, but then the Wei army gathered all its forces in Jiangzhou, intending to fight a decisive battle with our army here.And our army must fight quickly, otherwise it will not be able to advance forward, and when the time comes, once His Royal Highness the Prince and the soldiers and horses of the Nanban clan converge and go to Chengdu, our army will not be able to break through Jiangzhou, and it will not be able to join it. ”After Guo Jia's reminder, Zhao Yu suddenly realized that he had been thinking about attacking the city, but he had forgotten to join forces with the Southern Barbarian King and other soldiers and horses.If you miss a major event because of your own delay, it will be embarrassing enough, and Zhao Yu couldn't help but hurriedly said: "If it weren't for your reminder, I really almost forgot about it, could it be that Guo Jia You really don't have any way, there is only one plan to storm Jiangzhou" Guo Jia immediately said: "Attacking Jiangzhou is a must at the moment, although the attack sacrifices a lot, but if you use our army's artifact crossbow, it will reduce a certain amount of damage."

It's just that at the time of the war, His Majesty can send some letters to the city of Jiangzhou to spread rumors and disturb the hearts of the Wei army.As long as our army goes south in one fell swoop and captures many places in Yizhou, many Wei and Shu soldiers will surrender, so that Eastern Wu will also break away from the Shu and Wei alliances and re-establish with our Zhao State, so that the defenders of Jiangzhou Wei will definitely collapse in morale and panic. ”After listening to Guo Jia's words, I saw that the corners of Zhao Yu's mouth suddenly raised, and he couldn't help but smile and said: "If it is a morale attack, I have a plan, although it is not a morale attack, but it can also be said to be able to reduce the morale of those Wei troops."

Wait until tomorrow, let me show you a good hand, and let you see how our army fights the tired Wei army with the strongest combat power. ”The next day, Zhao Yu personally led tens of thousands of troops to Jiangzhou, and Jiangzhou City had already gathered all the Wei troops.A big battle will start at any time, and Zhao Yu does not plan to have any reservations in this battle, and dispatches all the soldiers and horses of Hanchang.Among the tens of thousands of troops, in addition to the White Tiger Cavalry under Zhao Yun and the trapped camp under Gao Shun, there are other mixed arms, including the inevitable special battalion, bow and crossbow battalion, etc., and even the various crossbows in the army have all been carried out, but they have not yet been shown, and before the critical moment, I am afraid that Zhao Yu does not intend to expose them.However, what puzzled all the Wei troops was that tens of thousands of Zhao troops drove to the city gate, but they never moved, and they waited and did not move.And just when the two sides were at a stalemate, someone from the Wei army on the city gate finally couldn't help it, and bowed to the commander this time, that is, Sima Yi, the new prime minister of the Wei army, and bowed his hand and said: "Prime Minister, those Zhao troops have been in formation under the city gate since the morning, but until now many hours have passed, these Zhao troops have never made any movement, what the hell is this Zhao army doing" Listening to the soldier's question, Sima Yi couldn't help frowning slightly, looking at Zhao Jun outside the city gate, there were many doubts in his heart.In Sima Yi's opinion, he has debuted for many years and thinks he has seen a lot, but he has never encountered such a battle situation.Generally speaking, when the two sides fight, they will be quick and quick to decide, but this time, the Zhao army, whether in morale or troops, occupies an absolute advantage.But these Zhao troops did not have the slightest intention of attacking the city, and Sima Yi did not know what kind of ghost these Zhao troops were fighting.It's just that in front of the soldiers, Sima Yi can't say that he doesn't know, otherwise he will not only lose his prestige in front of the soldiers, but also make the morale of the soldiers drop greatly.In particular, Sima Yi was even more strange when he saw that behind the Zhao army below, there were still many large tents.This can be said to be the second strange incident that Sima Yi has seen this time, and there are wisps of white smoke emitting from two tents.In the army of the Zhao army outside the city, Guo Jia bowed to Zhao Yu beside him and said: "Your Majesty, my army has been standing here for half a night, and the Wei army on the tower of the city gate has been in a panic, and only a short rest can allow the soldiers to attack the city." ”Hearing Guo Jia's words, Zhao Yu nodded, then put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand, and said, "Well, okay, the soldiers in the tent are all rested and have eaten and drunk enough."

Ordered everyone to take all their weapons and exchange them with the officers and men of the former army, so that those former generals began to retreat and rest. ”:
