Guo Yanzhang accepted Zhuge Ming's lesson last time. He was afraid that it was a fraud. He first ordered the troops to split up and search everywhere. They worked until almost dawn. Mao didn't see an old general. He sighed, shook his head and said to himself:
"The little eunuch is indeed well-deserved for his reputation. He does not follow the path that others have taken, and he does not use the tricks that others have used. He adapts to circumstances and does not play according to the rules. It is difficult to deal with people!"
Although it was a waste of life and money, the team did not suffer any losses in the end. Lao Guo felt relieved and returned to the camp to talk to the Prime Minister about the failed attempt to steal the camp. The old man said:
"This is nothing. Fortunately, the little eunuch heard the general's name and did not dare to confront him directly, so he slipped away quietly!"
After Guo Yanzhang became a famous general, he read several books on military tactics, strategies, formations, etc., so he did not believe that the little eunuch was scared away. However, after this torment, he also had a more cautious mind, and he was like the little eunuch.
People who are unreasonable and do not follow the rules must be very cautious when fighting a war, otherwise they will lose their head and think it was blown away by the wind! Guo Yanzhang thought for a while and said:
"Prime Minister, according to the general's analysis, Pan Youan's tactic is called the 'Escape from Earth and Shadow Technique', and we won't be able to find them for some time to come."
"He's still scared," Wang Xiang said with a smile.
"Maybe I'm a little afraid, but the most important thing is that he doesn't want to fight us face to face, but looks at the opportunity and bites us from behind. This kind of tactics is very hateful and insidious," Guo Yanzhang said solemnly
"How many people does he have? Hehe, at best, they are just collecting chicken feathers and using a duster. How many drops of blood can you get from crushing a bedbug to death?" Wang Xiang disagreed.
"Mr. Prime Minister, don't underestimate these thieves. I think there must be some masters among them." Guo Yanzhang turned a corner, changed the topic, and said with a stern face, "Mr. Prime Minister, I have heard people say that there is an animal in the mountains.
There are wolves and jackals, also called jackals. They are very small, slightly larger than foxes, but more agile and much thinner than foxes. Even though it is small, this little guy can sneak up on bears and tigers, even weighing 1,800 kilograms.
"The great buffalo"
"General Guo, aren't you just dreaming? I have read thousands of books, been in high official positions, and experienced countless things, but I have never heard of such strange things as you mentioned in the world!" Wang Shugui shook his head and teased.
"I have no intention of looking down on you, Prime Minister. Old Master Kong said that when three people are walking together, there must be one who is my master. It is definitely not the one who talks too much, that is Old Master Kong's master. It's just that there is one more person who knows and hears more."
That’s all, I’ll ask you, the old prime minister, to finish telling this story.”
Wang Shugui said patiently: "Okay, you tell me, I'm listening!"
"The main targets of such jackal attacks are generally not the nimble tigers and leopards, but mostly larger animals, even elephants..."
"How dare they mess with elephants?" Wang Shugui exclaimed.
"The taller the animal, the clumsier and slower it moves, so it is easier to get hold of it."
"How did they start?" Wang Shugui became interested.
"Get your butt!"
"Interesting! Could it be that you want to eat shit?" Wang Shugui shouted.
"No way! Don't talk about feces, they won't eat the meat if it's not fresh."
"So you are still a very picky guy. Can you please tell me how they behave?" Wang Xiang asked.
"Whenever it encounters a large animal, the wolf jackal moves extremely fast, and its claws are extremely sharp. It looks at the prey's anus, pulls out its large intestine and wraps it around the big tree. The prey suffers pain and struggles or desperately
When chasing the murderer, the result is that the intestines can only grow longer and longer until he dies."
"High!" Prime Minister Wang shouted
"This is exactly what the little eunuch used!" Guo Yanzhang finished his judgment.
"No?" Wang Shugui hesitated, "His surname Pan is not a wolf jackal, and we are not stupid cows."
Guo Yanzhang said sincerely: "The prime minister can verify it in the future."
Wang Shugui panicked. He was afraid that someone would dig out his butt and pull out his intestines. He begged: "General, save me. I am willing to split the earth with the general and share the world."
Guo Yanzhang smiled and said: "The prime minister does not have to be like this. The general is not a villain who pursues profit and forgets his loyalty. He does not dare to have the ambition to become a king or a marquis. It is the duty of a general to follow the prime minister and be loyal to the country."
"General, tell me quickly, what should we do next?" Wang Shugui asked anxiously.
"Give the order, one hundred thousand people form a team, and quickly split up to find the main force of the young eunuchs."
Wang Shugui ordered Wen Shichang to command and mobilize the army according to the plan. The 830,000-strong army had been busy for a day, but the little eunuch and his men were not seen. It was getting late, and the soldiers in each camp and village were cooking a pot of rice.
Before it was filled into his mouth, suddenly firecrackers, gongs and drums, pots and pots, etc. were blasting together, dust was flying, and shouts were everywhere. Wen Shichang urgently ordered the army to gather, split up and attack, and searched for half a night, but still found nothing. He just settled down, and still
The old trick was repeated over and over again. After three days of torment, Shugui, the king of the three days, stood up and said angrily:
"Instruct all camps and villages to allow the enemy troops to disturb them and remain unmoved. After dinner tonight, the officers and men of all three armies will sleep with their heads covered. Anyone who goes out without permission will be killed!"
That night, the little eunuch's 50,000 elite soldiers rushed into the camp, killing and beheading the officers and soldiers who did not dare to attack because of the Prime Minister's words. They were killed by the little eunuch's men, and even killed several generals. Finally, after counting the troops, those who escaped
, missing, captured, injured, etc. One hundred thousand soldiers were lost in one night.
Prime Minister Wang felt regretful and summoned the generals to discuss the matter. Wang Shugui glanced at Guo Yanzhang. The resourceful Lao Guo had no solution. He could only shake his head and sigh. Seeing that no one among the generals spoke, Wang Shugui said angrily:
"As the saying goes, it takes a thousand days to raise an army, but it lasts only a short time. When the country is in crisis, you don't even give a shit. Before going to war, you all roll up your arms and sleeves, pat your chest to express your love, and brag that this one is the queen of the generals, and that one is the brave champion of the three armies.
How invincible, how heroic, why are you silent now?"
Wu Shamao, the commander-in-chief of Shanhaiguan Pass, said: "The Prime Minister calmed down. It's not that we are unwilling to do our best, but that we don't know how to use this power. The little eunuch Shenlong disappeared and disappeared. Our fists hit the cotton buns."
, This is called having nowhere to use your strength!”
When the generals saw someone coming forward, they boldly echoed: "Yes, yes, the prime minister must come up with a perfect strategy, otherwise this battle cannot be fought."
Prime Minister Wang looked sulky and said lukewarmly: "I asked you to make a decision, but you treated my army like this. Starting from tomorrow, we will send one army to patrol in turn, and the rest will rest and sleep. Look at him.
The little eunuch still dares to come to rob the camp. How many troops should be sent to patrol? Otherwise, there should be one group of 100,000 people, divided into seven groups. Don’t let the little eunuch have an advantage in numbers."
Suddenly a female general strode forward, gave Wang Shugui a brief salute, clasped her fists in her hands and said loudly:
"The Prime Minister will send me out to patrol tomorrow. Two thousand people are enough! Who dares to harass us?"
Wang Shugui looked down and couldn't help being secretly surprised: There is such a stunning woman in the world?
I don’t know how the female generals will win or lose. Let’s talk about it next time.
