The noise in the military camp gradually disappeared as night fell. At this time of year, the temperature on both sides of the Yellow River has completely cooled down, with a bit of coolness unique to autumn. For the generals whose physiques are already half superhuman, the cold and heat are gone.
has no significance, but for ordinary soldiers, changes in temperature still have a great impact.
"Strong Qi and blood!" In the military camp, Chu Nan gathered his two hundred soldiers together and used words and methods to strengthen their Qi and blood. In the absence of baggage, he could only use this method to drive the soldiers.
It's cold.
After all, this is not his own territory, and there is very little popularity that can be borrowed. However, Chu Nan's awe-inspiring aura is now very thick, and he can still hold on to this level of words and tricks.
Although they were used to being cared for by their lord, the soldiers' faces still showed moved expressions.
For generals, it is necessary to maintain a good relationship with their personal guards, because in times of real danger, these people have to protect you from the sword, but even so, you can personally use your words and deeds to ward off the cold for the soldiers.
, it was still beyond the understanding of Yuan Jun’s officers and men.
So when Cen Bi saw Chu Nan actually using words and tricks to ward off the cold for his bodyguard, he was somewhat surprised.
"Mr. Ziyan, my lord invites you to discuss matters in the tent." Cen Bi saluted Chu Nan. At this moment, his attitude towards Chu Nan had changed greatly.
Originally, the other party only knew two of the Nine Secrets of the Royal Army, and he was a little contemptuous. However, when Chu Nan actually showed his use of the Nine Secrets on the battlefield, this contempt quickly turned into admiration.
It was obvious that although Chu Nan only knew two kinds of skills, the power he exerted was completely different from those of them who could only use it. Even Yuan Tan had never seen Chu Nan use Feng Zi Mi.
To this extent.
The military is different from other places. This place only respects those who are capable, and Chu Nan's performance today is enough for him to gain the respect of these people.
"Let's go." Chu Nan nodded. After settling down the soldiers, he took Zhou Cang and Cen Bi to Yuan Tan's main tent.
When Chu Nan arrived, Zong Wang was already in the tent, but he didn't say anything. When he saw Chu Nan and Cen Bi coming in, Yuan Tan stood up to greet them.
"Zi Yan deceived me so hard." Yuan Tan looked at Chu Nan, and when he opened his mouth, he was confused.
"Although I am not a gentleman, I practice the way of a gentleman. To lie to others is against the teachings of my teacher." Chu Nan sat down and shook his head, saying with a solemn expression.
Zhou Cang, who was behind Chu Nan, suddenly felt that he had discovered Hua Dian. The master said that lying was against his teacher's teachings, but he did not say that he had not violated it. According to the normal way of thinking, he naturally felt that the other party would not violate it, but Zhou Cang knew very well
Who is my master?
The Lord did not lie, but he spoke ambiguously and deliberately led people's thoughts elsewhere. Even if the matter was exposed later, he did not lie, but in fact, he was lying.
Recalling all the lies Chu Nan told before, it seems that... the lord really didn't lie!
Not mentioning the random thoughts in Zhou Cang's mind, Yuan Tan said: "Zi Yan clearly said that he does not know how to lead an army, but if Zi Yan had not taken action in time today, our army would be in danger."
"These two hundred soldiers are a gift from my father-in-law. Each of them has experienced hundreds of battles and is extremely strong. As a personal guard, I usually train myself. I can still control two hundred people, but a thousand troops
Just ten thousand horses..." As he said that, Chu Nan shook his head and smiled: "And I am a slow-witted person. Although I have studied the art of war hard, I only know two secrets from the beginning of studying the art of war. It is difficult to understand other secrets, so I can only study the two secrets intensively."
After successive defeats, Yuan Tan, Cen Bi, and Zong Wang also understood that Hui and Jing were two different concepts. Yuan Tan Hui's Seven Secrets, however, the power he displayed was indescribable compared to what Chu Nan showed today.
Along the way, they were first broken by Xia Houyuan, and they were also broken during a brief battle with Chu Nan. Now under Xuchang City, Qin Qi was obviously not as good as Xia Houyuan, but he still almost defeated them.
At this moment, Yuan Tan regretted that when he came to Qingzhou, he did not accept the general sent by his father, and wanted to make a career on his own. Now it seems that although they have been victorious in suppressing bandits in Qingzhou, they will really encounter Cao Jun or Xuzhou Jun.
The Qingzhou elite that he was so proud of was a bit unable to handle.
If there were one or two good generals under his command, he would not be bullied everywhere like now. When I followed my father, I just wanted to get out of his father's protection as soon as possible and prove myself with my ability. But when I really went out to lead the army alone, I
I found out how naive my original idea was.
After Yuan Tan pondered for a moment, he looked at Chu Nan and said, "Zi Yan, have you ever thought about working for my father?"
This time, he really wanted to recruit Chu Nan. Even if he would face criticism from some nobles, he could just blame it on Lu Bu. Chu Nan was a rare talent.
Whether it's strategy or control of the battle situation, if you listen to Chu Nan today, you don't have to rush to attack the city, but work together to surround Qin Qi's troops first, and you won't have to rely on Chu Nan to reverse the situation.
Chu Nan is a good talent, and Yuan Tan wants to take him under his wing. However, he also knows that his performance has been somewhat unsatisfactory along the way, so he drags out his father, hoping to use his father's name to take Chu Nan under his wing.
Winning over yourself? Actually sincerely!?
Chu Nan looked at Yuan Tan in astonishment. After confirming his intention again, Chu Nan felt dumbfounded. Unknowingly, he had become a talent worthy of being taken seriously by these powerful forces.
"I have admired Mr. Yuan for a long time." After thinking about it for a moment, Chu Nan smiled and said, "But brother Xiansi, if I really betray my kindness to know and support me because of this, and even betroth my daughter to my father-in-law, Xiansi,
Brother Si, do you still think highly of me?"
This question is easy to answer. In this era, princes generally pay attention to virtue when employing people. No matter what happens in private, at least your reputation will be good externally. When Chu Nan said this, he put this matter above morality. If you use me,
If you ask me to break my moral code, not only will my reputation be tarnished, but you yourself will not have a good reputation either.
Yuan Tan felt a little regretful, but he had not considered this issue. He sighed: "It's a pity with Ziyan's talent."
What's a pity?
Naturally, he felt that Lu Bu was not worthy of the loyalty of a person like Chu Nan.
Chu Nan smiled and said nothing. Putting aside everything else, which of the princes today can trust him and delegate power to him like Lu Bu does? And which prince can absolutely support his ideas like Lu Bu?
Now even if Liu Bei gets up and is willing to recruit him, he will not take a second look, because he knows very well that it is difficult for Liu Bei to fully support him like this. Even if he votes for Liu Bei, he will not have such great autonomy, and Liu Bei is not like
Like Lu Bu, at such an old age he is still naive and has not even established his own principles for doing things.
Maybe in the eyes of other people, this is not a good thing, but in Chu Nan's view, this is what attracts Lu Bu. With the right method, he can create a big pattern bit by bit, and he can stand out from other princes.
See the world from a big perspective.
"Everyone has their own destiny. The young master is from a famous family. One day, he will definitely be able to find someone far superior to me to assist him and achieve great things!" Chu Nan comforted him with a smile.
"Don't talk about this." Yuan Tan waved his hand and said: "You invite Ziyan here to discuss how to break the city next?"
Chu Nan shook his head and said: "Qin Qi is dead, but the city has not been breached. Maybe there are other generals in the city. Qin Qi has made an explanation before leaving the city, or it may be the fault of the Xuchang County magistrate, no matter what,
It is impossible for us to defeat Xuchang in a short time."
"Mr. Ziyan, are we not here to attack the city?" Zong Wang said with a frown.
"Yes and no." Chu Nan said with a smile: "Our ultimate goal is to wipe out Cao's army, but the main force of Cao's army is not in Xuchang, but in Shouzhang. At this time, Shouzhang may have received the news that our army has appeared here, and the military morale
There will be chaos."
Chu Nan looked at Yuan Tan and said with a smile: "Brother Xiansi, don't worry. Brother Xiansi has already made great achievements in this battle. After this battle, Dongping will at least belong to brother Xiansi."
Dongping is sandwiched between Taishan County, Qingzhou Jibei County, Jiyin County and Dongjun. The connection with Qingzhou is weak. If Yuan Tan is worried about Dongping County, let him hold it for the time being. When the battle between Yuan and Lu begins,
Chu Nan can easily cut off the communication between Dongping and Qingzhou and then annihilate them.
If Yuan Tan still doesn't give up after taking Dongping and still wants to target Taishan County as before, then he will take Dongping back directly.
Looking at Yuan Tan, Chu Nan did not see him having similar thoughts for the time being. Chu Nan smiled and said: "So what our army needs to do at this time is not to attack the city, but to defend against the troops returning from Shouzhang."
"If Xia Houyuan comes again, our army may not be a match." Yuan Tan sighed. Xia Houyuan's ability brought a great shadow to Yuan Tan. It was also because he lost to Xia Houyuan, Chu Nan, and Yuan Tan became a little arrogant.
.
"Brother Xiansi, don't worry. Although Xiahou Yuan is strong, he is not indestructible. Our army only needs to build a stronghold and use fortresses to defend it. It would be delusional for Xiahou Yuan to break through our army with a small number of troops." Chu Nan said with a smile.
In a head-on attack, Yuan Tan and his generals were destined to be unable to defeat them due to their abilities, but relying on building defense was still possible. As long as the generals' camps were stronger, at least in the short term, Xiahou Yuan would be unable to defeat them.
Over there, Zhang Liao and the others have organized troops to attack Shouzhang. This battle is destined not to last long. As long as they can delay Xia Houyuan for a few days, Shouzhang may be defeated.
Yuan Tan looked a little weird. Aren't they here to attack the city? Why do they need to defend instead?
"In addition, we need to keep asking people to go to the city and shout to see if we can get the defenders to surrender." Chu Nan continued, if the person defending the city is the county magistrate, then based on the reputation of the Yuan family and the current situation of Cao's army, they can call for surrender.
The probability is still not low.
Yuan Tan nodded silently: "Okay, according to Ziyan's plan, we will strengthen the military camp overnight and confront Xia Houyuan!"
