The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms

That night, Xu Zhong, Le Jin, Xun You and others led the remaining troops to Xu County.

After being defeated by Chen Ji et al., the Huaibei Coastal Teng Army who counterattacked Xu County, saw that the reinforcements of Xun's army had already crossed Huaibei to reach Huaibei. Soon after, they heard that Sun Jian's troops in Hong County had changed, and it seemed that they had joined forces with Xun's army and crossed the border to attack. Meaning, two news came out, including the Chu army who had stayed in Huaibei and did not participate in the counter-attack of Xu County. The county fled north to Xiaqiu, or simply threw away the armor and went back home together.

It is precisely because of this that Xu Zhong and others crossed Huai to Xu, but they did not encounter any effective resistance along the way.

At Xu County, although it was already night, Xu Zhong had no intention of resting. After making arrangements for the garrison of the troops, he immediately called Jiang Hu, Liu Bei and other generals, together with Le Jin, Xun You and others, to discuss the military with everyone. Deploy the next action plan.

The military meeting was held in the main hall of the county temple.

When the generals arrived, Xu Zhong first ordered Guan Yu to come forward and said to him: "This time in Kexu County, the monarch's merit is the greatest. I have written to the general Jianwei and expressed his merit for the monarch."

Guan Yu said: "If there is no timely assistance from Liu Xiaowei, Jiang Xiaowei, Chen Junhou, etc., although Yu conquers Xu County, it may be difficult to defend."

He was doing something for Liu Bei.

Xu Zhong nodded and said: "The people of Xuande crossed Huaihuai in the two battles, not only solved the danger of Xu County, but also cleared the obstacles for our department to cross Huaihuai. I have also written to General Jianwei for their credit." Next, Xu Zhong said again, "I heard Xuande's words, saying that the strong men who helped the lord to take Xu County should join the lord to fight, and I also reported the matter to General Jianwei, and I think there will be an order in the near future. Down."

Guan Yu responded "yes", gave a military salute, and retreated behind Liu Bei.

Among the officers who came to participate in the military meeting, apart from Xu Zhong and the school lieutenants, only Zhang Fei, the military commander of the cavalry army, was given a seat because although his name was "Military Commander", he was actually the highest officer of the cavalry that fought from Xu Zhong. , the rest of the officers below the captaincy are all without positions. Guan Yu is the military commander in Liu Bei's department, and he has no seat. Although he has made great contributions, at this time he is standing behind Liu Bei's seat, but he has no merit. The complacent appearance is exactly the same as the usual attitude towards Liu Bei. When this situation comes into the eyes of everyone, they are all secretly admiring.

One is to praise Guan Yu's loyalty, and the other is to praise Liu Bei for winning people.

Said the credit, the words get to the point.

Xu Zhong looked around the people in the hall and said, "It will only take a few days to enter Xiapi. Our army will go to Huailing first, and then conquer Xu County. The danger of Huai River is no longer there, but you must not be arrogant, you need to know: Huai River The reason why the two counties of Ling and Xu were won was not just because of the military exploits of the kings and others, but also because of Sima Que and his earlier internal response. "

Everyone said: "Yes."

Xu Zhong went on to say: "After Xu County has been conquered, Xiaqiu is next. The battle at Xiaqiu will not be easy. What are your best strategies?"

Xu Zhong has always been taciturn, and he was even more concise when speaking at military meetings. He said, "The battle at Xiaqiu will not be easy." . Although he felt that the reason was not comparable, not everyone among the officers present understood it, so Xun You immediately opened his mouth and told the reason why Xiaqiu was not easy to take.

Xun You came to the map hanging on the hall, and said to the officers, "General Xu said that Xiaqiu is not easy to take, which is very true!"

He pointed the map and analyzed it for the officers: "Please see, Xu County is here..." His finger moved from Xu County to the northwest, and stopped at Xiaqiu, "Xu County is less than a hundred miles northwest, it is for the sake of Xiaqiu." From Xiaqiu, he swiped his finger to the north again, "One hundred and fifty miles north from Xiaqiu is Xiapi County." After pointing out the locations of these three county towns, he turned his attention to the hall. The officers of the army went on to say, "Although there are three counties of Tongguo, Chuan, and Xiaxiang between Xiaqiu and Xiapi, but Xiaqiu is close to Xiapi, and there is no natural danger between Xiaqiu and Xiapi. Therefore, once our army surrounds Xiaqiu, Zherong in Xiapi County will surely rush to rescue him.”

All the officers agreed.

Xun You said: "Ze Rong will surely rush to save Xiaqiu, this is one of the things; many of the Zhai army along the Huaibei coast fled to Xiaqiu, although they were defeated troops, after all, they were quite large, but they also strengthened Xiaqiu's defense force. , this is the second; Huailing and Xuxian's defeat is partly due to the merits of Que Sima, but there is no internal response that can respond to our army's attack in Xiaqiu City, the third. In summary, it is not easy to take Xiaqiu ."

Que Xuan is a tyrant in the southern part of Xiapi County, and it is not easy for his influence to reach Xu County on the north bank of the Huai River. As for Xiaqiu, he is completely powerless.

After listening to Xun You's analysis, the officers all agreed.

Xun You looked at the faces of the officers, and saw that although they all had solemn expressions, they did not show any fear of fighting, but instead were excited, with a fighting spirit that was happy in death, satisfied, smiled slightly, and said, "Although there are three to take Xiaqiu. It’s not easy, but there are two benefits.”

Liu Deng, who was second only to Xu Zhong, Le Jin, and Xun You, heard Xun You's words, and immediately said loudly: "Han Dang led his troops out of Hongxian County. This is one benefit, but I don't know what the other benefit is?"

"That's right, Han Yigong got General Xu's biography. He started from Hongxian and has now arrived at Gaixiaju." Xun You looked back at the map, found the location of Gaixiaju, and pointed it out to the officers, "Zhu Jun And look, there are Han Yigong's troops here, I expect that the reinforcements of Zhe Rongchi to rescue Xiaqiu will be hesitant and unable to rescue Xiaqiu with peace of mind. This will benefit one of our troops!"

Gaixiaju is the place where Han Gao encircled Xiang Yu in the past. This position is located in the north of Hongxian County, the west of Xuxian County, and the southwest of Xiaqiu. Han Dang's troops and horses are stationed here, less than 80 miles away from Xiaqiu. If they march quickly, they can arrive in a day. With his troops and horses, eyeing the tigers, how can the Qi army who rescued Xiaqiu feel at ease with him? Xun army fighting?

After Xun You finished talking about Han Dang's party in Gaixiaju, he pointed to the northeast of the map, crossed Xiaqiu and Tongguo counties, and stopped at Xiaxiang County. He smiled at the officers and said, "I received Zilong before this afternoon. According to the military report, he has led his troops out of Ling County and into the Xiapi realm. He has won three battles, and is heading for the lower minister! As long as Zilong reaches the lower minister, Zhe Rong will be at a loss."

All the officers in the hall were overjoyed.

Zhang Fei smiled and said, "Since Zilong is coming, the lower minister will be in danger!"

Liu Deng laughed out loud~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and said: "Even if you can't fight the inferior, as long as you surround the inferior, Zhe Rong's Shuzi will definitely not dare to let go to help Xiaqiu! This is indeed the first time for our army. Two benefits."

Xiaqiu is close to Xiapi County, and Xiaxiang is even closer to Xiapi County. As long as Zhao Yun's troops are on the lower side, Zhe Rong will definitely be in a dilemma: Xiaqiu will be saved, and the lower minister will be saved, so what should we do? There is only one way: save both. And saving both places will inevitably lead to one result: the inability to concentrate troops.

If the rescue force cannot be concentrated in one place, then for Zhao Yun and Xu Zhong, neither of them will face too much pressure.

Xun You smiled and said: "Yes, this is the second benefit to our army. With these two benefits, taking Xia Qiugu is not easy, but it is not impossible."

According to Xun You's analysis, Zhao Yun went out of Ling County, fought consecutive victories, and the news that he was approaching Xiapi followed the news that Xu County had been occupied by Xun's army and spread to Xiapi County. --(:,,xuanhuan11()!
