Chapter 217 Zhi Cai Orders, The Whole Army Moves Immediately
As soon as Xi Zhicai said these words, everyone temporarily put aside their previous disputes and turned to look at him in unison.
"Zhicai, what's the plan?" Zhang Liao was overjoyed when he heard this and asked anxiously. As for the "awkward" Han Heng and Wang Liang had just now, in his opinion, it was harmless. After all, who is this man in the army?
Still not angry? After one or two fights, the anger will dissipate. Maybe we can shake hands and make peace, and maybe become each other's brothers.
"This plan, if I say it, will not work! Please wait for a while, and wait until early tomorrow morning. Maybe Ji Chou will not be able to help but lead his people out of the city to fight to the death with us. Then we will have to rely on you to bravely kill the enemy!
"The corner of Xi Zhicai's mouth curled up slightly. Before coming, he had discussed with Zhu Han what they should do if Ji Chou held on to the city. However, this was an extremely difficult problem for the ancients, but in Zhu Han's view, it was
It couldn't be simpler.
The ancients attached great importance to face. Even bandits in the mountains and forests, and bandits in the water, most of them regarded their own face as more important than their lives. Let alone ancient times, even in the extremely open modern world, most people care about themselves.
face.
As long as you clearly see the other person's weaknesses and prescribe the right medicine, even if the medicine cannot cure the disease, you can still make the other person feel disgusted.
Ji Chou is a veteran general in the court and holds a high position. This kind of person cares most about what outsiders think of him. Now he has no choice but to follow Zhang Chun in rebellion, but this old boy should value his face very much.
But then again, people have rebelled, so do they still care about the little face? Zhu Han didn't have much contact with Ji Chou, so he just gave it a try and taught Xi Zhicai a few disgusting things.
Method. At the beginning of the period, Xi Zhicai didn't pay much attention to it, but after he listened to the method taught by Zhu Han, he was immediately shocked and secretly admired it. With Zhu Han's method, if he wanted to break through Ma Cheng, to be honest,
Not difficult.
"Zhicai, how come you have learned all these bad habits from those old scholars? Since you have a good strategy, why don't you tell us about it?" Guan Hai wants to kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds, so he'd better outdo Han Heng. Here,
Among the group of people, he was in the most anxious mood.
However, there is also a person who has the same idea as Guan Hai. He is Han Heng. Han Heng has just arrived and has not made any achievements yet. He is not a gregarious person to begin with. Now he has offended Guan Hai and the others. If he doesn't make some military achievements with him,
, it is difficult for him to maintain his position among this group of people.
"That's right, tonight is to discuss strategies to defeat the enemy. Since you are confident, military advisor, why don't you make it clear to me and others?" Han Heng asked eagerly: "At least you have to assign tasks?"
"Well, what Han Junhou said is true. I have summoned you tonight to discuss strategies to defeat the enemy and to allocate tasks. Now that the military advisor has already made a plan, he will also ask the military advisor to assign tasks to us. Among the military advisors,
This is my order from Zhang Liao, you all must cooperate to the death!"
Seeing that Xi Zhicai didn't want to talk about it now, there was a reason that he couldn't say. Zhang Liao trusted Xi Zhicai's strategy very much, so he didn't worry too much about the strategy at the moment. Zhang Liao took off the sword from his waist and handed it to him.

After giving it to Xi Zhicai, he glanced at the generals in the tent and said in a deep voice: "Okay, please give the order from the military advisor!"
"I'm waiting for my fate!"
Han Heng, Guan Hai and other generals were stunned when they saw this, and then quickly stood up to respond.
"Since I have the trust of the commander, I have to assign tasks..." Xi Zhicai solemnly took Zhang Liao's sword and said with a serious face: "This battle is related to the reputation of our lord. Therefore, this battle
Our army can only win, but cannot lose. If anyone dares to act against the enemy and refuses to move forward in fear, he will be dealt with according to the military law!"
"promise!"
The generals were shocked, and their expressions suddenly became serious.
"Guan Hai, you will lead your troops out of camp at midnight tonight and rush to hide and wait five miles north of the west gate of Macheng. Remember not to let the rebels in Macheng find any trace during the march." Xi Zhicai looked at Guan Hai and ordered.
: "Take the sound of arrows tomorrow as a signal. After three shots, you will lead your army to attack the west gate of Macheng and seize the city gate. Leave the rest alone."
"promise!"
Guan Hai was confused when he heard this, but he still accepted the order and took the order.
"Xu Qiang! Your troops will also leave camp at midnight tonight and rush to five miles outside the north gate of Macheng. After three arrows are fired, all vehicles trying to escape from the north gate will be intercepted. As long as they are vehicles, no matter whether they are ox carts or horse carriages, they will be intercepted.
Intercept them. If you see people carrying large or small bags, intercept them all. In a word, you can run away, but you have to leave all the things behind!"
Xi Zhicai smiled slightly, his eyes full of wisdom, as if everything was under his control, but his orders were more like cleaning the battlefield. Before the war started, he thought of matters after the war ended.
I don’t know if I have a good idea or just show it.
"promise!"
Although Xu Qiang was full of doubts, he immediately took the order.
"Wang Liang, your department is in charge of the east gate, and your orders are the same as Xu Qiang's!"
"promise!"
"Chang Peng, South Gate!"
"promise!"
Xi Zhicai was high-spirited, waving his feather fan slightly, and his tone showed strong confidence. If he were to arrange it in this way, he would only have 600 troops and horses at his disposal. However, the four generals who had previously taken orders did not react to Xi Zhicai.
When the general's orders were questioned, they all accepted the general's orders without hesitation.
This was the first time Han Heng fought with Zhang Liao and others. In the past, he trained soldiers at Yanmen Pass, while Zhu Han trained outside Gaoliu City. Han Heng was good at thinking. Looking at such a scene, even if he led the troops
For a while, I still had admiration for Zhu Han. In any case, Zhu Han's generals did indeed follow the military orders. These four words sound simple, but it is very difficult to do it. The military advisor ordered,
Quick and detailed, the generals take orders and act vigorously and resolutely.
But he himself, who claims to be a great talent on behalf of the county, does not have the means of others and cannot achieve this step.
"Han Heng, you will take out 200 cavalry and put them under Zhang Liao's command temporarily. You will lead the remaining 300 cavalry to guard the camp. After the sound of arrows, all of them will come out of the camp and attack the rear of the rebel army to join forces with Zhang Liao.

Horse City Rebels!"
Xi Zhicai turned to look at Han Heng and explained: "Be careful not to go deep into the enemy's formation. Just penetrate left and right to disrupt the enemy's formation!"
"Han Heng takes the order!"
Finally hearing a decent order, Han Heng'an endured the doubts in his heart and accepted the order readily.
"Zhang Liao, early tomorrow morning, you will lead three hundred cavalry to the west gate of Ma City to invite a fight. As soon as the rebels leave the city, you will order people to release the first sounding arrow and retreat a hundred feet. When Han Heng's troops arrive on the battlefield, you will
Release the second ringing arrow, and then lead your troops to attack the rebels. All you have to do is march straight into the palace and kill the rebel commander's flag. It's best to kill Ji Chou."
"Zhang Liao, take the order!"
Zhang Liao did not hesitate and responded in a deep voice.
"Military advisor, when should the third ringing arrow be released?"
Han Heng asked suspiciously when he saw that Xi Zhicai seemed to have missed something.
"This third ringing arrow will be released by you after your troops reach the rebels!" Xi Zhicai calculated the time and distance between the two parties before deciding to let Han Heng handle this most critical step. If
If he releases the resounding arrow in time, he can mobilize the troops hidden outside the four gates. If he cannot, the battle will be delayed and the opportunity will be missed.
"Ah? Me?" Han Heng was stunned when he heard this, pointed at the tip of his nose, and was stunned for a moment. Then he realized and quickly took the order: "Han Heng takes the order!"
"Zhicai, are there any more?" Zhang Liao seemed to have guessed a little about the meaning of Xi Zhicai's last sentence, but he did not point it out and just asked as usual.
"No more!" Xi Zhicai replied.
"Well, I will leave thirty people to protect your safety then!" Zhang Liao nodded, then glanced around the other generals, and said solemnly: "Brothers, this battle is very important. We can only win, not lose.
, when this battle is over, I’ll treat you to a drink!”
"We will fight to the death to complete the mission!" Guan Hai and others also looked solemn and promised with clasped fists.
"Okay, let's all go down and get ready!"
"I'll say goodbye!"
After everyone else left, Zhang Liao revealed his doubts, "Zhicai, can you really lure Ji Chou out? If Ji Chou doesn't leave the city, your prestige in the army will be gone!"
"
"How can we be trivial in the army? Since we have given the military order, we can only finish it to the death. If Ji Chou does not leave the city, you can behead me!" Only then did Xi Zhi know what Zhang Liao was worried about. After this move, no matter whether Ji Chou came out or not,
If they leave the city, they will waste a day, and if they wait until the third day, they will have no choice but to return without success. Moreover, this is an order given by Xi Zhicai without explaining how to lure Ji Chou out of the city, even if it is Zhang Liao
I have a lot of confidence in him, but I can't help but feel worried.
"I am the commander-in-chief of an army. You can tell me everything about your plan, so that I can feel more at ease!" Zhang Liao advised.
"Actually, this plan is very simple! It's just..."
