Volume 7 Ma Mingfeng Xiaoxiao, the young man is raising his sword Chapter 234 Tiger father has no dog son?
With a shout, a middle-aged scribe was seen outside Shen Jizhou's army tent and walked in quickly. He cupped his fist towards Shen Jizhou and said, "I, Xu Youzhi, have met my lord!"
When Shen Jizhou saw that it was Xu Youzhi, he nodded and said: "It turns out to be Youzhi. I was about to give the order to use Guo Changshi's plan. Why did you stop me? Maybe you have other ideas?"
This Xu Youzhi is a famous scholar in Yanzhou, not an old official who started his career with Shen Jizhou in Bohai. He was the one who defected to him after Shen Jizhou destroyed Gongsun Li of Yanzhou a few years ago.
However, this person had quite a plan. When Yanzhou was first established, all kinds of hidden worries came and Yanzhou was extremely unstable. Thanks to Xu You's plan, Yanzhou quickly stabilized and became the world's second largest city besides the Bohai Sea. The most powerful state in the country.
Shen Jizhou cherished his great talent. Although Xu Youzhi joined his camp late and his reputation was not among his four great counselors, he was already one of the others and had a faint tendency to surpass the four great counselors.
Therefore, when Shen Jizhou saw Xu You coming today, he hurriedly stopped him. Then he put down the command arrow in his hand and patiently asked him what he meant.
Xu Youzhi hurriedly raised his hands and said: "My lord, whether it is chasing the enemy or ambushing them, the main purpose is to surprise them and attack them unprepared. But Xiao Yuanche suddenly gave up Linting, Bajin Ferry and the area north of Bahe River, and then followed up in an orderly manner. Withdrawing to Jiuzhang, we must have made all preparations. With preparations, we must be on guard against sneak attacks and ambushes. Therefore, if we pursue them at this time, wouldn't it be just what we want? Therefore, I think Xiao Yuanche's troops cannot be pursued! "
Shen Jizhou narrowed his eyes and nodded, his voice rising: "Oh? Is that really the case?"
Xu Youzhi nodded and said: "To say the least, even if Xiao Yuanche was not on guard, it would not be appropriate for our army to pursue and ambush him."
"Why?"
"Xiao Yuanche's army retreated. We only got the news at this time. It must have been much too late. Now we don't know how far away Xiao Yuanche's army is from Linting. If we want to rush to Linting to old Zhangcheng To set up an ambush in front of us, we need to send out light cavalry and take the narrow roads, so that we can catch up with the Linting troops and set up an ambush in front of the old Zhang city. But my lord, please think about it. Firstly, we are sending out light cavalry and taking the small roads. The strength of the troops we bring is We have limited resources, and some heavy equipment cannot be carried, and we have to march in a hurry. There are many mountains and dangerous roads between Linting and Jiuzhang. Our army must be tired as we march all the way. If we wait for the Linting troops to ambush, we still have fighting strength. How much? Whether we can defeat the Linting tribe or not is another matter." Xu Youzhi talked eloquently.
When Shen Jizhou heard this, his eyes flashed and he was silent.
Xu Youzhi calmed down and said: "Furthermore, we have no idea where Xiao Yuanche's army has gone and how far it is from Linting. If they are not far away, we know that Linting is being attacked by our army." Entering the palace, Xiao Yuanche turned his army around, and our army immediately fell into an encirclement. Not to mention swallowing up the Linting tribe, our light cavalry army will probably never come back!"
Xu Youzhi finally seemed to conclude: "Therefore, I believe that the retreating troops of Xiao Yuanche's Linting Department cannot be pursued or ambushed!"
Shen Jizhou was in a dilemma now. Just now he listened to Guo Tu's words and felt that they were reasonable. Now he listened to Xu Youzhi's words and felt that they were indeed true.
He was a bit confused as to how to make a decision.
This thing can't be decided by drawing lots...
Shen Jizhou had no choice but to look at his three sons behind him and asked: "Qian'er, Kun'er, and Huang'er, what do you think?"
Shen Qian was the first to speak: "Father, I feel that what Mr. Xu said is very true. Xiao Yuanche is cunning. Guo Baiyi and Su Ling are also good at planning. Therefore, we should not set up an ambush easily to avoid falling into their trap!"
When Xu Youzhi heard this, he cast an approving look at the eldest son Shen Qian.
Shen Kun next to him snorted, cupped his hands and said: "My father and I think Guo Changshi's words are right. Xiao Yuanche's sudden withdrawal was both preparation and haste. Our army was galloping with light cavalry, and there were mountains and mountains as obstacles. Cover, how could Xiao Yuanche detect it, so I asked my father to use Guo Changshi's strategy!"
After hearing this, Guo Tu proudly glanced at Xu Youzhi and nodded lightly towards Shen Kun.
This is not surprising. Shen Kun likes to recite poems and write essays, and is arty. Guo Tu is also like this. The two of them are often together. They also participated in the Longhuang Poetry Festival together. If they want to stand in line, Guo Tu He and Shen Kun must be on the same team.
When Shen Jizhou heard this, he shook his head and thought to himself, this is great. With two sons, one of them is in the same team, but he still can't decide.
He cast his eyes on the third son, Shen Huang, and said, "Where is Huang'er?"
This Shen Huang is the youngest, much younger than the eldest son Shen Qian and the second son Shen Kun. He is only fourteen years old now. His biological mother was born to one of Shen Jizhou's most favored concubines. What's more, Shen Huang is the youngest son. Jizhou only had these three sons when he was in his forties. He was considered to have a son at an old age, so he had always been pampered. When he reached the age of fourteen, he had a face as good as a crown jewel and a well-groomed appearance, which pleased Shen Jizhou quite a lot. Shen Jizhou once said privately that after a hundred years, he would pass on the title to his third son, Shen Huang.
Because Shen Huang was pampered and pampered since he was a child, everything followed Shen Huang's temperament, whether it was Shen Jizhou or his biological mother. As a result, he learned everything and was not good at anything. However, the bad taste of the young master of the aristocratic family was revealed as soon as he learned it.
But when Shen Jizhou looked at him, he saw that his son had the appearance of a dragon and a phoenix, and was born with noble looks, so he was good in every aspect.
Originally, Shen Jizhou's eldest son Shen Qian and his second son Shen Kun secretly cultivated their power because of future inheritance issues. Shen Kun attracted Guo Tu, and Shen Qian attracted Xu Youzhi as his eldest son. Xu Youzhi was new to Shen Jizhou's camp and needed to find a big tree urgently. In order to gain a firm foothold, it happened that the eldest son showed his favor, so he tried his best to plan for Shen Qian.
Originally, the two sons were fighting openly and secretly, but now that Shen Huang has reached fourteen years old, and his father is quite fond of him, Shen Huang has the potential to overpower his two brothers and has to fight for the inheritance. Shen Jizhou He was also determined to support his younger son, so Shen Zhengnan and the others were Shen Huang's people.
His father was arrogant, and his support behind the scenes was Shen Zhengnan, the oldest civil servant in Bohai. Therefore, Shen Huang's power was temporarily reduced, and his two brothers were eclipsed by him.
In these days, Shen Kun's power has increased due to Guo Tu gradually being put in more important positions by Shen Jizhou, and he can vaguely compete with Shen Huang secretly.
However, Shen Qian, the eldest son, was the most favored by his father at first. However, due to the incident involving his cousin Yuan Wuqian in Ba Nan, he was more or less punished and gradually fell out of favor. Now, except for the eldest son, he has two identities. Apart from what the younger brother doesn't possess, there is no other bright spot.
In addition, Xu Youzhi, who secretly supports him, does not have a deep foundation. Therefore, in the current situation, Shen Qian, as the eldest son, is the one who has lost the most power.
However, Shen Qian was very scheming and kept a low profile in his work. With Xu Youzhi's advice, he kept tolerating and hiding his capabilities.
Besides, inside the big tent, Shen Huang saw his father, Shen Jizhou, asking him. He was a master who didn't study much. Just now, he half understood what Guo Tu and Xu Youzhi said. When he saw his father asking him, he said: I have to say that I had to salute my father and said slowly: "My son... I think what Guo Changshi said is very true..."
Well! When Guo Tu heard this, he straightened his back and showed a look of joy on his face. But before he could take a breath of pride, Shen Huang spoke again: "But... I think what Mr. Xu said is also true." It makes sense..."
When Guo Tu heard this, his back that had just been straightened bent down again.
I co-authored this to make peace with others, and no one should be offended.
When Shen Jizhou heard this, he was also speechless. The three sons must be three to one. He never thought that they were one and a half to one and half to one and a half.
After spinning around, the ball was passed back to him.
(Author: Chinese football has this roundabout way of playing, and it has already qualified for the World Cup...)
However, Shen Jizhou is also a patient with difficulty in making choices. He cannot draw lots in public. This would be too embarrassing for the family of four generations and three fathers.
Shen Jizhou was hesitating when he saw Guo Tu suddenly sneered and said pitifully: "I would like to ask my lord to kill those who are timid to fight immediately to correct the military law!"
As he said this, he pointed his finger at Youzhi.
Xu Youzhi knew that Guo Tu was a villain, with no big plans, and a clever little guy who was invincible. He didn't want to argue with him, so he just snorted, looked up at the sky, and ignored him.
Guo Tu was even more furious and said bitterly: "Xu Youzhi! There must be a battle between my lord and Xiao Yuanche. Now is the time. My lord was planning to raise a strange army to ambush Xiao Yuanche. If you hadn't been timid and slandered, My lord has already used my strategy! Just now you kept saying that neither this nor that could be cut. You are clearly afraid of Xiao Yuanche. How can you stand on your own in the tent with your slanderous words that embolden other people's ambitions and destroy your own prestige? !”
After Xu Youzhi heard this, he slowly looked at Guo Tu and saw that he was pointing at him angrily. He couldn't help but smile coldly and said: "I won't argue with villains, everything is decided by the master!"
"You...!" Guo Tu's angry face alternated between blue and white. If he hadn't been in the Chinese army's tent, he would have pounced on Xu You and bit Xu You.
Seeing that Xu Youzhi did not accept the move, Guo Tu suddenly caught a glimpse of one of the generals. He walked up to the person in three steps and two steps at a time. He looked upright and heartbroken and said loudly: "General Wen, you and General Yan are sworn brothers." , I feel like brothers and sisters. That General Yan died in Linting. Now that Linting's soldiers and horses are retreating, our army happened to attack him unprepared. How could we miss this great opportunity! General Wen, a man must avenge his revenge. Don't you want to avenge General Yan? Or do you? I think Xu Youzhi is right and want to be a coward!"
This Wen Liangben was the first person under Shen Jizhou to have a bad temper. He cried a lot these days because of the death of his eldest brother Yan Qiu in Linting.
He had already hated Su Ling and Guan Yunchong in his heart, and vowed to chop off their heads in memory of his eldest brother. In addition, he was already aggressive, and when Guo Tu provoked him, he immediately became furious.
If you don't ambush Linting's soldiers and horses, then you will become a tortoise. That won't work!
A man can't do anything as a turtle! The color is wrong!
Wen Liang suddenly screamed, jumped out, and shouted loudly: "The last general Wen Liang, please give me an army to ambush the Linting soldiers wherever they pass. Kill them all, no matter who they are, unless Su Ling comes." It’s cheap, if Su Lingyu comes, he can avenge my brother Yan Chou!”
