Chapter 21 Xu Gu lurks in Wujun Guo Jia makes a wonderful calculation of Yu Zhang

Sorry, there are some things at home, so I'm busy! There are only two chapters today. Thank you for your reward!

When he heard that Zhou Shan was about to give up paying attention to Xu Gong, Sun Ce immediately stopped him and said, "No! Zhou Junhou, let your scout lurk in Xu Gong, the deeper it is, the better.

Remember to tell him that he should not act rashly until he is in a critical moment! He will be of use to him in the future!"

After saying that, Sun Ce gently wiped his forehead, but noticed that there was no cold sweat oozing out of his head.

He thought to himself with a complicated mood: "How can you know that Xu Gong will be the most important key figure in the near future for Lao Sun Ce's life and death! Whether he is talented or not, it is better to keep it in his own eyes!"

Zhou Shan, who was not sure about the mystery, heard that his lord had his order and immediately took the order solemnly.

He thought to himself: "Since the lord has given it in particular, it seems that Xu Gong should be in another danger. In this way, Xu Gu can only let him stay there. At least he has to wait for him to find out where the threat to our army is."

Seeing Zhou Shan accepting the order seriously, Sun Ce breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved. He was still very relieved about Zhou Shan's ability to test the scout and the Xinghuo Camp. He nodded and signaled him to continue.

Zhou Shan coughed lightly and continued, "According to the scouts, Liu Yao's army now has a total of about 80,000. In addition to the nearly 10,000 people who were destroyed in Hengjiang, there are still 70,000 people.

Among them was the 20,000 army of Suli stationed in Moling. More than 10,000 monks from Surong were stationed in the military camp outside Moling City. Zhang Ying and Chen Heng retreated across the river and entered Niuzhu. Now there are 15,000 soldiers and horses in Niuzhu City.

Liu Yao in Qu'a personally led the newly-engraved five thousand Danyang soldiers, but although the soldiers were strong, their combat power was not strong. There were about five thousand county soldiers composed of several other aristocratic families stationed in Qu'a City.

The two prefects who defected to him had nearly 10,000 people each. Several places were combined together with a total of more than 70,000 troops."

Guo Jia and Zhou Yu asked in unison: "Can you find out the food and grass village?"

After asking, the two of them looked at each other and were both intimate smiles. What heroes see are similar, but what wise people see are different!

Zhou Shan replied: "I heard that most of the food and grass collected by Liu Yao's army was stored in Niuzhu City on the other side of the shore. In order to facilitate support for the Hengjiang and Dangli cities. There were only 5,000 soldiers defending, but now..."

The meaning of the words is that it is all because of Sun Ben, so many defenders have been released. It is too difficult to plot against the enemy's food and supplies now.

After listening to Zhou Shan's report and looking at the map, Li Ru thought a little thoughtfully: "The scouts of Zhou Junhou are really elites, and they are well explored! It seems that only two small counties in Yangzhou are Lujiang and Jiujiang, which are still in our hands.

Zhu Hao is a county magistrate sent by the court, and he has no foundation in this state. If he gains power in the future, he will definitely surrender to Liu Yao!"

Seeing Li Ru's somewhat regretful look, Zhou Yu suddenly laughed and said, "Two military advisors! I think Zhu Hao may not be able to occupy Yuzhang. Zhuge Xuan has the support of Liu Biao behind him. If he is unfavorable to fight for the position of prefect, it is difficult to guarantee that Liu Biao will not send troops to help.

Our army is now busy fighting against Liu Yao, so we will not help Zhu Hao. Even if we want to take action, we will probably drive them away. This Yuzhang belongs to Yangzhou and should be under the jurisdiction of our army."

The few of them nodded for granted, and Liu Biao actually wanted to take advantage of the civil strife in Yangzhou to send people to get a share of the pie. In the past, everyone didn't know how the Jiangdong army was there, so how could he have the opportunity to lead the Jingzhou army.

Guo Jia thought for a moment and suddenly said, "What Gongjin said is very much! Yes! Military Secretary Li, you also said that Zhu Hao has no foundation in Yuzhang and the entire Yangzhou, but he just relied on his reputation as the son of the Grand Marshal Zhu Jun.

With the talismans issued by the court, some local tribes are willing to support him.

Lord! My subordinates thought there was a plan that would work. Our army only needed to send people to win over Zhuge Xuan, and just find a way to take Zhuge Xuan in the hands of our army. In this way, our army pacified Jiangdong, and wouldn’t Jiangxi have another obstacle?”

Guo Jia's summary initially caused everyone to nod, but when he heard the last sentence, he was so surprised that he almost dropped his chin.

The room was silent for a moment. Zhou Yu thought for a while and asked first: "Guo Jijiu's plan was very good, but Yu thought that Zhuge Xuan was originally the prefect sent by Liu Biao, so how could he return to our army? Although this plan was good, Yu thought it was very difficult!"

Speaking of later, Zhou Yu didn't know how to describe this whimsical Guo Jijiu's plan. The plan that Guo Jia made this time was Sun Ce and Li Ru, and he also felt that this matter was extremely difficult and even impossible to achieve.

It was impossible to collect the prefect sent by Liu Biao to the Jiangdong Army! This was a task that could not be completed. If this was the case, it would be better to send someone directly to expel the two of them and become prefects.

Sun Ce said with some amusement and laughter: "You are really a genius. You always think that people dare not think about it. But I feel that this matter is not much more difficult than letting Liu Biao surrender to our army by himself! It is not realistic at all! Haha!"

In Sun Ce's memory: "Zhuge Xuan died of illness early because of the failure of the battle for Yuzhang and his career was not going well. He never left Liu Biao until his death. Even after his death, Zhuge Liang was taken care of by Liu Biao to grow up safely in the Mahayana people.

It seems that Zhu Hao won the final victory in the battle. But who is Zhu Hao? He really doesn’t have the impression of this person. I haven’t heard of this person when Liu Yao retreated from Yuzhang later, this person was the prefect? ​​No matter what, maybe there has been a change!"

Seeing that everyone was surprised and unbelievable, Guo Jia smiled slightly.

He said confidently: "Lord, but his subordinates think that Liu Biao dares not send troops to help Zhuge Xuan!"

One sentence shocked several people again. How could this be possible? Liu Biao was very jealous of the treasure land of Yuzhang. Otherwise, he would not have just died of illness when his former prefect Zhou Shu died of illness, so he immediately called his old friend Zhuge Xuan to take over the position of prefect.

Zhuge Xuan has been in Yuzhang for nearly half a year, so he has basically gained a foothold! If Zhu Hao had not been ordered by the court and suddenly came to take office, Yuzhang would have been incorporated into Jingzhou, it would have been a foregone conclusion."

Li Ru immediately received: "If there is no Liu Biao's support, Zhuge Xuan will be defeated! After all, Zhu Hao has the appointment of the court and the seal in his hand. Just like Liu Yao, who just arrived in Qu'a last year, if he had no strong force, Zhuge Xuan would not have been able to stand firm at all.

If those local tribes who are used to changing their responsibilities when they see the wind, if they cannot see the support of Jingzhou, they will definitely not support Zhuge Xuan anymore!

But it is impossible to let Liu Biao not send troops to support him! Will Liu Biao be so ignorant, can't his subordinates see the benefits of seizing Yu Zhang? It's impossible, it's completely impossible!"

After hearing Li Ru's analysis, the two young men, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, nodded in agreement. Even if they were in Liu Biao's position, they could not easily give up and basically gain Yuzhang County. That was the territory of the entire Jingzhou three-point area.

Seeing that even Li Ru, a treacherous military advisor, Guo Jia smiled proudly and said, "You can hear Jia's words and discuss it again. Thinking about Liu Biao, when Jia was in Jizhou, he also commented with Tian Yuanhao.

I deeply think that Liu Biao is just a talker who likes to be famous. Although there are many capable ministers under him, they are suspicious and cannot be used. There are only few people with knowledgeable people who submit to him! Looking at Huang Zu, who is stationed in Jiangxia, he is just a martial artist who is a bag of wine.

I heard that when the lord secretly attacked Xiangyang the last time, several generals of the college lieutenant attacked. With only five thousand elite soldiers in the camp, he fought so hard that he hid in the city and did not dare to move. Such martial arts, such courage, and such a strong person, if he wanted to expand his territory, it would be difficult to ascend to the sky.

As for Cai Mao who is only proficient in water warfare, he can only dominate the Poyang area at most. As for Wen Pin, known as the first brave general in Jingzhou, it is a possible threat. But if he sends troops into our state, will it attract General Zuo to retaliate with his new and old grudges and send troops to Jingzhou?

Please see, our army only needs to let Chen Wu Duwei lead three thousand elite troops and dispatch it at the same time. It is stationed in Xunyang County, which is at the junction of Lujiang and Yuzhang, and connects to the neighboring county of Yuzhang, and uses the two places as a place for military conduct.

I made a situation where my Lujiang army would seize the way out at any time. With Liu Biao's suspicion and indecisiveness, how could he dare to take risks and lead his army to a dangerous place! In fact, Liu Biao is quite similar to Yuan Benchu's personality!

It’s a pity that my brother Yuan Hao can see other people’s shortcomings, but he can’t see the shortcomings of his lord! He was in the situation, but he just reminded him that he couldn’t listen!”

Zhou Yu, who was hearing the wonderful part, didn't want to hear his feelings and asked: "Guo Jijiu! What about after that?"

Guo Jia, who was so encouraging that he was even more proud of seeing someone taking the bait.

He smiled at Zhou Yu and said, "Don't worry, Gongjin, don't worry, when Zhuge Xuanzheng and Zhu Hao were at the critical moment, the reinforcements were suddenly cut off.

If he is in trouble with internal and external affairs, what attitude will he have if he can get support from an elite soldier at this time?"

Zhou Yu, who was already good at strategy, benefited a lot after listening to Guo Jia's analysis. A handsome big head twitched excitedly.

He said with admiration: "Guo Jijiu is really easy to plan! He suspected that the military plan was to remove the firewood from the cauldron, and then add a timely help. It is really wonderful. Such a series of tricks, how could Zhuge Xuan not obediently! Yu has been taught!"

Li Ru also praised Guo Jia with a full face and said, "Gongjin, the praise of Fengxiao, a talented man, should also add to knowing yourself and your enemy! It's a wonderful idea!

If Zhuge Xuan vowed not to obey, our elite soldiers could still put him under house arrest. In his name, he ordered his subordinates. No matter what, he had been the prefect of Yuzhang for half a year, and there would inevitably be a group of followers.

However, if we can get the talisman seal issued by the imperial court to Zhu Hao, then this plan will be even more perfect!"

After hearing the sincere praise from the two colleagues, Guo Jia looked furious.

He bowed proudly to the three people in the room and said, "You guys are too rewarded! You are too rewarded! It's really a trick of carving insects!"

The appearance of the villain succeeding in his plan and a villain's success made Sun Ce laugh and cry at him.

Suddenly thinking about something, Sun Ce said with some concern: "Hey! Fengxiao, don't you want to do this in person, do you?"
