Chapter 27 Troubleshooting
"My appearance?"
Liu Zheng's face darkened, and he didn't quite understand what Xu You wanted to say.
"Once the defeat of Runan City is made public, the attack on the Yellow Turban Army will definitely be quite serious. Although it will not cause the Yellow Turban Army to fall into a slump, it will definitely make the Yellow Turban Army at the end of the road. It will be difficult for the Yellow Turban Army to make any waves, but your appearance makes me feel a little confused."
“How to say it?”
"You guy is different from other Yellow Turbans."
"Ha, what's the difference?"
Liu Zheng sneered at Xu You's words.
"The other Yellow Turban thieves are nothing more than some wine bags. It's okay to win a battle. When you get a disadvantage, you will definitely lose. But you are different. You can gather people's hearts at critical moments and let these Yellow Turban thieves drive you. You are much more powerful than other Yellow Turban thieves."
"Let me say, Bocai is not as good as you."
When Xu You was in the east of Runan City, he saw the battle between Liu Zheng and Sun Jianjun throughout the journey.
I was quite surprised that Liu Zheng could defeat Sun Jian. It was precisely because of this that Xu You was already disappointed with the Yellow Turban Army, but at this time, he saw hope again.
"I didn't expect Mr. Xu You to look at me so much, but this made me not expect it."
"Although you are different from those Yellow Turbans, if you continue to escape alone, your final result will be just a defeat."
Xu You just finished saying something to appreciate Liu Zheng, and then poured a basin of cold water on Liu Zheng's head, which immediately returned to reality.
"How do you say this?"
"Hehe, although we escaped from the East City Gate and took one step ahead of the official army, when the official army at the North City Gate reacted, we would definitely send troops to chase them. The pursuers would definitely not be infantry, but cavalry. If I expected it was right, it should be that guy Cao Mengde, who brought his cavalry under his command to pursue them."
"Supervisor Liu Zhengqu, although you have thousands of soldiers and horses under your command, what will happen if you are caught up by the cavalry under Cao Mengde?"
"If it was in a head-on battle, with Liu Zhengqu's ability, I guess your cavalry against Cao Cao may not necessarily be defeated, but under the current situation, you will run around and run away with a nervous expression and energy. Once you are chased by Cao's cavalry, it will be one-sided!"
After Xu You said that, Liu Zheng's expression changed slightly. He quickly realized that what Xu You said was true. If he kept running, any pursuers came from behind and those who had finally gathered together would be severely damaged again, and then he would really be in a slump.
However, Liu Zheng was not desperate yet, so he quickly looked at Xu You again. Then he asked Xu You with a little respect.
"I know that Mr. Xu You must have a solution, so please give me some advice."
"Although I do have a way to crack it, why should I tell Qu Shuai you?"
Liu Zheng smiled and knew that Xu You was asking for benefits from him.
"Mr. Xu You, you are not saving me, but saving yourself. If Cao Cao really chases you, I'm afraid you won't be able to escape."
Liu Zheng is not a person who will easily compromise. Although he had guessed Xu You's intention, he still did not directly agree to Xu You.
"Even if Cao Jun really comes, Cao Mengde and I are old acquaintances, and he may not be embarrassed by me!"
"Is that true, Mr. Xu You, you are now with the thief. With Cao Mengde's temperament, I'm afraid that even if you are old acquaintance with him, he will deal with you as a thief."
Liu Zheng smiled and replied to Xu You. As soon as he said this, Xu You immediately lost his words.
It is impossible to refute Liu Zheng.
However, Liu Zheng did not continue to make things difficult for Xu You, but immediately gave Xu You a step.
"Mr. Xu You, as long as you can help me overcome this difficulty, I will become a military advisor. In the future, I, Liu Zheng, will definitely not let you down!"
The previous words were Liu Zheng’s uncompromising, and the latter words allowed Liu Zheng to raise his position to the same height as Xu You.
It’s not that Liu Zheng had to ask Xu You for help, but Liu Zheng knew Xu You’s ability. Although Xu You’s reputation was not very good in history, there was still something in his stomach. If Liu Zheng wanted to do something in this era, he always needed some talented people to help.
It is impossible to achieve great things by fighting alone.
Now under his command are Xu Huang and Pei Yuanshao, but there is only one strategist, and Xu You may be the best choice.
"Okay, Liu Zhengqu Shuai is really refreshing. I like people like you, but there is one thing you have to promise me."
Xu You was also happy. After Liu Zheng said his request, Xu You agreed immediately.
"What's the matter?"
"If I can't tell you about this, I can guarantee that it will definitely make me rich and powerful."
Xu You smiled, revealing a mysterious look.
It seemed that he had deliberately kept it a secret and did not tell Liu Zheng.
Liu Zheng won’t ask more questions.
"No problem, please tell me how to deal with the pursuit of the government army!"
"Hey, it's easy to destroy the pursuers of the government army. Since you know you can't run away, why don't you just fight them?"
"beat?"
Xu You's relaxed tone made Liu Zheng look shocked, although he realized something.
"Yes, since we know there will be pursuers in the future, we should stop running away and set up an ambush here. The official army definitely did not expect that we would attack their pursuers in the middle of the journey. By accident, the pursuers would inevitably be in chaos!"
"At that time, we have the initiative and still have the initiative. We may not be able to fight the pursuers behind us!"
Xu You's proposal immediately made Liu Zheng think quickly.
Instead of running away all the way, it is better to ambush and deal with the pursuers. This is indeed a way for them to deal with it calmly.
"Mr. Xu You's plan is very good!"
"I have selected the location for you. There is a dense forest at the intersection we came just now. It is not difficult to hide the troops in front of you. You will divide the troops into two waves later..."
Xu You approached Liu Zheng and told Liu Zheng in detail what he thought and how to fight this ambush battle.
While listening to Xu You's description, Liu Zheng nodded repeatedly to show that he understood.
Soon, Liu Zheng hid all his men and horses as Xu You ordered. The ambush plan began, and the government army's pursuit arrived here.
After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, the sound of trampling on the road ahead came from the sound of war horses, which immediately made Liu Zheng ambushed here nervous.
