Under the cold winter night, countless thoughts were flying, focusing on Wang Yu. [r />
Reason and emotion have never been completely unified. It is precisely the concrete manifestation of emotions that are the same in essence but are often completely opposite in terms of expression.
Even in the Qingzhou army, which is full of wise men, there is only Zhuge Liang who can completely isolate these two emotions and analyze the problem completely rationally.
Almost everyone thinks that Wang Yu's silence and unmoving army are proof that he is weighing and thinking. Therefore, all the generals, including Taishi Ci and Wei Yan, proposed various things to Wang Yu from their own perspective.
The opinions are either to ask for battle, or to propose a roundabout strategy to save people, or to remind him not to be impulsive, take risks again, and come to the battle in person.
Shan Jing feels desperate, and it is precisely because Wang Yu has been silent in the face of all kinds of persuasions and suggestions. Even Xu Huang, who is most familiar with him, and Zhuge Liang, who is best at analytics, cannot tell what he is thinking.
In Shan Jing's opinion, Wang Yu did intend to send troops to rescue, but the severe situation did not allow him to do so. The current situation is very obvious. After Juyong City is lost, the Hu people will definitely retreat in large numbers, and then the Qingzhou army will be very good.
Meeting calmly and stabilizing the situation in Youzhou, why take risks now?
Many people have the same idea as Shan Jing, so from the third day, fewer and fewer people have asked for battle. Apart from Taishi Ci and Wei Yan, only Lu Qiling seems to be the most active. If Zhang Liao had not repeatedly reminded and persuaded him,
The girl might have a decisive battle to act coquettishly, and it is unknown whether she will pester Wang Yu to let go.
There are fewer and fewer people who advise Wang Yu to make plans and not take risks. The reasons are exactly the same as those who ask for battle, but the reasons are different. Everyone thinks that the lord has made a decision, and the person who asks for battle does not want to disobey his orders. Those who advise him will be advised.
I think there is no need to continue nagging.
Therefore, the joint request of Taishici and Wei Yan had some kind of lingering and beating, and was unsurprisingly driven out by Wang Yu.
Taishici is a straightforward person. Although Wei Yan likes to take risks, he is not a scheming person. In addition, the two of them have a big voice, so this time they asked for a fight and made a lot of noise. When the two were indignant, they were indignant.
After coming out of the city guard's palace, there were countless silent sighs coming from the darkness.
"It seems that Wang Pengju is determined not to save Gongsun Zan... It's such a pity."
"There is no way, people can't be unchanged. No matter how you don't like power and conspiracy, if you hold power for a long time, you will always have to change. The Xianbei people suffered a great loss this time. The Danhan Mountain was Zhao Zilong.
After slaughtering all of them, more than 20,000 people were left in Juyong City. If the news is correct, Qian Man might be over..."
"As long as Wang Yu does not plan to launch a large-scale counterattack, this battle can end perfectly. He has a lot of money in terms of reputation and affordability. Not to mention that it is difficult to save Gongsun Zan, even if it is not, why should he find him for himself?
Please, save the unruly thorn head and come back?"
"That's it. But even if we are completely untenable in Youzhou, even if we use our lord's connections and reputation, we will be too poor in the barrier. But the bitter cold outside the barrier...ah!"
"Don't worry? It won't take long. Since Wang Pengju began to weigh the pros and cons, he lost his aura. It won't take long, he will become like other princes. Fenglangjuxu? Maybe he had this idea before the war, but this
After the war, he himself should have known how naive this idea was. When he settled down in Youzhou and returned to the Central Plains to compete for power, in a few years, this idea would no longer exist..."
"No more say, Yan Hu, you set off overnight. The lord reminds Tadun to prepare for withdrawing troops in advance. Gongsun Zan may not be able to hold on tomorrow. Once Juyong City is destroyed, the Xianbei people will not stay for a long time. If the Wuhuan army is like this, it is
I'm slow to move, I'm afraid..."
"Don't worry, second brother, I'll leave now, and I'll bring the news to you tomorrow evening at the latest."
The two black shadows sighed, discussed, reached a conclusion, and finally parted ways.
If you change the names of each other and the title of the messenger behind you, you will find that in the darkness, similar conversations have been repeated at least ten times... Some have surnames Yan, some have surnames Qi, and two others have surnames.
The surname is Xianyu, and there is even a person with the surname Liu!
The spies unanimously agreed that the Battle of Youzhou had reached its last moment, so they risked the exposure and sent out information in different directions.
Fortunately, the spies were lucky. Although martial law had begun in Jixian County as the situation became tense, most spies still left the city smoothly from different channels. Only the Qi family was very far away.
Unlucky was caught.
But this is nothing. Doing a secret job requires such mental preparation, as long as the information is not leaked. At the same time, the Qi family's dead soldier bit the poison bag hidden in his mouth, although his
The body would leave some clues, but if the Qingzhou army followed the clues and found other clues, the spies had already withdrawn from Ji County in full.
However, the secret spies who had left the city or had not left the city did not know that after obtaining the spy's corpse, Xu Huang, who was in charge of the city defense, did not investigate in detail. Instead, he threw the body away and went directly to the city guard to meet Wang Yu.
"Lord, Shan Jing left, and after he was reprimanded by Ziyi and Wen Chang, he discovered that five secrets had been secretly protruded out of the city. According to your prior order, he only took down one of them. The messenger was a dead soldier and committed suicide on the spot..."
"Well, I understand, Gongming, you're doing a good job, let's go and rest." Wang Yu nodded, his face still had no waves.
"...Here." Xu Huang hesitated and responded, but refused to leave, with a look of wanting to speak but stopping his face.
Seeing Xu Huang's expression in his eyes, Wang Yu smiled slightly and asked, "Why, Gongming, do you want to fight too?"
"Huang doesn't dare." Xu Huang bowed and replied, "Lord often said that a warrior should be a sword. As long as he knows why he fights, the rest will be brave enough to move forward. Huang Yulu, he does not dare to see the lord's intentions, only
You must obey orders. However, this time you are reluctant to express your opinion...it does make people feel at a loss."
Because he is responsible for city defense, Xu Huang knows more than others.
During these days when the troops were still in motion, Wang Yu was not completely inactive. Except for scouts everywhere, the city defense was loose on the outside and tight on the inside. He had conducted a very strict search for spies and spies in the city. On the surface, these actions showed that Wang Yu was interested in blocking them.
Ji County's intelligence seemed to adopt Wei Yan's opinion, put forward an empty city plan, and raid the Xianbei army under Juyong City.
The forces of the Xianbei and Wuhuan to attack each other in the east and west are difficult to deal with, but the Qingzhou army, which is fighting in the inside, also has the advantage of maneuvering in the inside. It is impossible to assert which one is better or worse.
The reason why it is difficult to leverage the advantages of the inside is mainly because there are too many spies in Jixian and nearby. Tadun does not need to contact the main force of Xianbei, and he will be clear about the movements of the Qingzhou Army in Jixian.
The biggest flaw in the plan proposed by Wei Yan is that the intelligence cannot be blocked, and psychological warfare is nowhere to be discussed. If the Hu people's eyeliner is cut off, there is a chance to try that plan.
But Xu Huang, who received Wang Yu's detailed order, did not think so, because Wang Yu's city-wide ropes were not thorough. Although relying on the help of the Yinwu Army, Xu Huang found out many spies and was still eyeing him.
He had several important goals, but he knew very well that it was not thorough.
Outsiders don’t know, but Xu Huang knows very well that Wei Yan’s subordinates have received intelligence training, but their main attack direction is special operations rather than intelligence, and they cannot be called professional at all, just fooling outsiders.
Secondly, the local forces in Youzhou have been operating in Jixian for countless years, with countless eyeliners and deep buried them. They can be said to be deeply rooted. Even if Jia Xu and Xu Shu came together, they brought all the elites of the Hidden Fog Army's intelligence system,
Don't even think about cleaning up these eyeliners within ten days and half a month.
Only one person who misses the net may cause great trouble. This plan is not about taking risks, but about deliberately breaking into danger! Xu Huang doesn't think Wang Yu would be so careless.
Finally, there are problems with Wang Yu's order itself.
According to his instructions, Xu Huang's purge only dealt with some miscellaneous fish. He did not even arrange the important targets he had dug out, but he just told the watchman in the city tower to pay attention to those directions.
Counter-espionage? Fake information? Or simply not wanting to disturb the public too much?
Xu Huang was full of suspicion, but even if he repeatedly discussed with the most wise Zhuge Liang, he had no idea about it, especially as time went by, the situation had become critical.
Fifty miles north of Ji County is Changping County. From northwest of Changping to another fifty miles, it is Xiguan, which is Juyongguan in later generations. The distance between Xiguan and Juyong City is also fifty miles.
The distance of 150 miles is as fast as two days for infantry. If you consider staying in the battle state, it is not surprising to walk for four or five days. If Wang Yu used a false intelligence strategy to hide the truth from the world, then he would not only have to
Be confident to defeat the 100,000 Hu Qi head-on, and you must also have confidence in Gongsun Zan, believing that the other party can support it for at least another three days.
But that is impossible.
Whether it was the observation of the Qingzhou army scout or Zou Dan's letter of help, they all clearly expressed the same view. If there was no accident, tomorrow would be the time for Gongsun Zan's death.
Even if you set off immediately, before Gongsun Zan died in battle, at most, only the Iron Cavalry and the Hidden Fog Army could reach the battlefield. Since entering Youzhou, there were very few food and equipment for the spoils seized, but there were many war horses. Another thousand were formed.
When the cavalry came out, there was no pressure at all.
Therefore, Xu Huang was puzzled and didn't understand at all. What did the lord want to do? But he wouldn't believe that Wang Yu's seemingly contradictory actions were just because of hesitation and hesitation in his heart.
That was not the Wang Pengju that he knew, nor was it the cavalry general who made many colleagues willing to die with courage and courage!
Facing Xu Huang's questions, Wang Yu was silent for a moment, suddenly walked off the seat, stroked Xu Huang's shoulder, and smiled and said, "Those who know me are Gongming."
