Chapter 24
: Guo Fengxiao talks about war on paper
The tiger whip is a magical thing, which can make men show their power and be invincible.
Guo Jia spent a happy life like this, and before he knew it, the time of the Yellow Turban Rebellion was getting closer and closer to the memory.
The rising sun is rising, and everything is revived.
In the pavilion in the middle of the lake, Guo Jiazheng and Liu Bei play Go.
As the weather warms up, the ice and snow begin to melt, and everything is full of prosperity.
"I'll turn against you, I'll turn against you!"
Zhang Fei walked over quickly, making a rumor in his mouth.
Guan Yu followed closely behind, his face slightly complicated.
When Guo Jia heard this, he paused slightly.
Reverse... Has this day finally come?
He immediately raised his head and looked at Liu Bei who was sitting opposite, and the other party also raised his head.
The two looked at each other.
Bang!
Guo Jialuo looked at Liu Bei and smiled and said, "The green dragon raised its head and soared thousands of miles."
This is a rebellion that swept the world and will give the Han Dynasty a heavy blow.
However, danger and opportunity coexist, which is also an opportunity, especially for those who have no foundation in Liu Bei, it is a god-given opportunity.
Liu Bei stood up, with a passion in his heart.
"I should hold a three-foot sword and achieve unparalleled achievements."
In this life, I will never leave any regrets.
He added another sentence in his heart.
Guo Jia played with the chess piece in his hand and looked at Guan and Zhang with a playful look on his face: "Raising troops for a thousand days, using troops for a while, are you ready?"
He divided the thousand soldiers into two parts and handed them over to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to practice, and at the same time made a bet on the length of the battle to see who could train a better combat-ready soldier.
The two of them each formulated a set of training methods based on their own strengths, Guan Yu's swordsmanship and Zhang Fei's spearmanship.
The use of spears and guns is similar, and the spearmen trained by Zhang Fei is also quite good.
When Zhang Fei heard this, he patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry, military advisor, my second brother and I will never let you down. You will know it when we go to the battlefield."
Guan Yu did not speak, but his face was full of confidence, fully demonstrating his character of being ruthless and not talking much.
At this moment, the county magistrate's literati "Zhou Cheng" hurried over.
"The county magistrate is invited."
Zhou Cheng looked at Guo Jia with a complicated expression. Combined with all the signs, this man clearly predicted everything. This talent was indeed beyond his reach.
Guo Jia smiled and then bowed slightly to Liu Bei.
"If you go down, go back."
Liu Bei nodded slightly, knowing that it was Yingchuan County Magistrate invited Guo Jia to discuss countermeasures.
...Guo Jia then followed Zhou Cheng to the county magistrate's mansion.
"I dare to ask, what is the situation in Yingchuan Prefecture now?"
On the carriage, Guo Jia was idle, so he asked about the development of the situation.
Zhou Cheng looked worried and sighed: "The rebels outside the city claim to have 100,000, and have captured several nearby counties. Now they are heading towards Yingchuan, and they are in a strong position to attack the city."
Guo Jia shook his head and sneered, "100,000? It's just a bluff. From what I see, it's only 20% or 30%."
In this era, I always like to exaggerate it. In his opinion, the so-called 100,000 rebels are nothing more than an imaginary number. The only one who can go to the battlefield is at most 20,000 to 30,000.
Among these 30,000 people have been trained and equipped with weapons, there should be no more than 10,000 people.
Seeing that he looked relaxed, Zhou Cheng couldn't help but feel a little surprised and puzzled. Is this person really sure to win or pretend to be calm?
Zhou Cheng couldn't help but tempted: "Even if it is only 20% or 30%, it is ten times that of Yingchuan's garrison. Could it be that there is a countermeasure to worshipping filial piety?"
Guo Jia shook his head and said, "No, if the enemy has already thought of a countermeasure before it arrives, it's just a matter of talking about war."
The reason why he was so relaxed was that although the Yellow Turbans were large, they were almost all new recruits who had never experienced the battle formation.
Although there are only 3,000 soldiers and horses in Yingchuan City, they are well-trained and well-equipped regular troops. Even though they are in the heart of the Central Plains and their combat power is far inferior to those of the border troops, they are far superior to these newly formed militias.
In addition, with external threats, the major families in the city will surely share the same hatred for the enemy. It should not be difficult to gather 2,000 people from their private soldiers.
From this we can see that the final result should be 5,000 to 20,000, and the individual combat power of the official army is even better.
After this comparison, the strength gap between the two sides is actually not very large. This is because the focus of the Yellow Turban Uprising is not in Yingchuan, but in Jizhou, Nanyang and other places.
Zhou Cheng was speechless. Why was he so confident without a solution?
While thinking, the carriage had arrived at the county magistrate's mansion.
——
When Guo Jia and the others arrived at the conference hall, the room was already in chaos, and they could vaguely hear everyone arguing about the Yellow Turban incident.
Some people proposed to strengthen the city walls and stand firm and wait for assistance.
Some people think that the people should be mobilized to defend the city together.
Some people also think that people should be sent to the capital immediately for help.
...But no one suggested taking the initiative.
"Guo Jia, a grass-roots citizen, has met the county magistrate."
Guo Jia strode into the hall and bowed to Xun Shengyi.
Xun Sheng was worried about the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and when he saw Guo Jia, he was relieved.
"Fengxiao is here, please take your seat soon."
Taking a seat is actually kneeling.
Guo Jia got up and walked to Xun Yu and Xi Zhong to sit down.
In this noisy hall, the two men who were as stable as Mount Tai seemed to stand out, and the vacant seat was obviously reserved for him.
When everyone saw the county magistrate speak, they stopped talking and turned their attention to Guo Jia.
These people are either children of aristocratic families or landlords and powerful people, and naturally they know Guo Jia. In addition to his own talent, the influence of the Guo family was also indispensable.
Xun Sheng pondered and said, "Have you ever heard of the Yellow Turban Rebellion?"
This is a question that is clear. It is not difficult to see from the previous incident of Guo Jia borrowing troops to suppress bandits that he is preparing for today.
"A little heard."
"Can you have any countermeasures for filial piety?"
"Why don't the county magistrate ask Xun Yu first? With the talent of the king and the assistant, he will definitely have a good plan to defeat the enemy."
Guo Jia felt that scholars need to be more humble, so he brought the ball to Xun Yu.
Xun Yu laughed without saying a word when he heard this.
Xi Zhong had a expressionless face and looked out of the way.
Xun Sheng looked helpless: "Wen Ruogang recommended you to me, and now you recommend him again. Could it be that you and the two of you didn't want to share my worries?"
Although he is his nephew, Xun Yu, as the future head of the Xun family, has a status above him, so he can't help but act.
Guo Jia couldn't help but look at Xun Yu, and this guy was the only one who was the best at first!
He then stood up and said seriously: "I think we should take the initiative and not give the bandits an opportunity to develop and grow."
This is a strategy that Guo Jia agreed with Liu Bei in advance. Since he planned to make achievements in the Yellow Turban Rebellion, he naturally could not fall into this small place in Yingchuan.
As soon as this said, Xun Sheng was stunned and everyone was talking again.
Some people say that Guo Jia is young and frivolous, while others think that the gap in military strength is too big, and even more so...
"Reporting to the county magistrate, Zhao Kuo is the lesson of the past, and you must observe it!"
Guo Jia was speechless for a moment.
Zhao Kuo is not weak, but his opponent is too strong!
