Chapter 897 The Chinese army plans to advance into the army
So even though Huang Zhong is that old, his old face is still a little red and unnatural. After all, although he is still at the same age, he has to admit that Huang Zhong's skin is not thick enough to that deep.
Looking at Huang Zhong's expression, Ma Chao knew it in his heart, so he didn't say much about it. Anyway, he knew now that the archers were much more powerful than before, so that would be enough. Haha, it would be fine if the Sun and Liu coalition didn't come. If it came, it would be clear how his soldiers killed them.
Can Ma Chao still not understand the soldiers on his own side? The so-called strong will be strong when he meets strong, which is certain and certain. This is definitely not unilaterally and subjectively think that this is the case, but the fact, that's it. Because it has been proved more than once that the soldiers of Liangzhou Army on his own side are like this, so it is not Ma Chao who boasts himself, but the fact, that's it.
Finally, Ma Chao said, "In the battle tomorrow, let's see how our archers are. As long as the combat power is stronger than before, then Han Sheng will be a great achievement!"
-----------------------------------------------------
After hearing what his lord said, Huang Zhong could accept such words calmly. But after all, he was still a little embarrassed.
When everyone heard this, they nodded in agreement. In fact, no matter how their lord said, they basically agreed, but this is almost the same.
Finally, Ma Chao said to everyone, "Bozhan. Yide!"
"The last one will be here!"
"The last one will be here!"
The two bowed and said, and Ma Chao said to the two, "Tomorrow, you wait for the two to be responsible for defending the city and resisting the Sun and Liu coalition forces, and there must be no mistakes!"
"No! I will definitely live up to the lord's entrusted!"
-----------------------------------------------------
Although this had been agreed before, everyone understood that at this time, his lord had truly given orders to the two. Tomorrow, the Sun and Liu coalition forces attacked the city, and Ma Dai and Zhang Fei were responsible for defending the city. His lord had both of them defended the city, which shows that the enemy should not be underestimated. Everyone did not underestimate the Sun and Liu coalition forces, but they could not look up to them.
Ma Chao nodded and then said, "Okay, let the city be handed over to you. As for the others, I hope to guard the major city gates of Qichun. Don't give the Sun and Liu coalition forces an opportunity to take advantage of it!"
"promise!"
Everyone said in unison. They all understood what their lord meant. After all, Qichun is not just a city gate, so the Sun and Liu coalition will attack tomorrow. However, if they want to attack the east and west, the other city gates will be in danger. However, with their own defense, there is still no problem. Even if they are now dispatching troops, they can defend other city gates immediately.
However, when this happens, there are still very few. At least everyone doesn't think it is very likely.
-----------------------------------------------------
In Sun Ce's central army tent, everyone was also discussing tomorrow's siege.
Sun Ce deliberately asked someone to invite Liu Bei and his subordinates to come over. After all, he wanted to discuss tomorrow's war. If Liu Bei and the others didn't come, they would discuss what? Why are they now all the coalition forces, and the coalition forces are the only ones, Jiangdong Army, right?
After everyone sat down, Sun Ce was the master, so he spoke first, "Duke Xuande, everyone, our army will attack Qichun tomorrow. I wonder how you think it is best to send troops?"
If you want to say Sun Ce's words, the Jedi is aimless, because whether it is for his subordinates, the Jiangdong Army, or Liu Bei's side, it is now a coalition and a whole. So there are quite a lot of things in it. At least, as the lord of the Jiangdong Army, Sun Ce said that he would consider it. So he invited Liu Bei and the others to come here to discuss how to advance tomorrow.
-----------------------------------------------------
Generally speaking, there are actually two forms of attack. Either one team of people and one team of people attack. For example, Sun Ce’s Jiangdong Army first, and then the Liu Bei’s army will be retaliated several times. Or vice versa, Liu Bei’s army will be retaliated first, and then Sun Ce’s Jiangdong Army will be retaliated. This is a form.
Then the second type is very simple, that is, Sun Ce Jiangdong Army and Liu Bei's army attacked Qichun together. After all, they are all coalition forces, so it is not impossible to attack together, nor is it bad, so this is the second type.
In fact, no matter which one it is, there must be both pros and cons. For both Sun Ce and Liu Bei, they will naturally choose which one they have the most benefits and the least disadvantages.
Seeing that no one was talking, Sun Ce asked, "I wonder what Duke Xuande thought?"
Sun Ce asked Liu Bei directly. After all, Liu Bei was the one who made the final decision, so Sun Ce asked him directly. As long as Liu Bei said something and he agreed, the matter would be settled.
-----------------------------------------------------
When Liu Bei heard Sun Ce's words, he thought to himself, "Sun Bofu wants me to say it, then I won't say it. Anyway, I haven't thought about it yet, so of course I won't agree to you so easily."
At this time, Liu Bei smiled and said, "General Sun, why not let Mr. Gongjin of the army say that, Bei wants to hear his great opinions!"
Liu Bei threw this to Sun Ce again. If you don’t let me say that, I won’t say it, let your people say it.
For Zhou Yu, even Liu Bei had to call him Mr. Gongjin. After all, Zhou Yu was also a famous scholar in the country, so he deserved the name Liu Bei. And today Zhou Yu was wearing a literati costume, so it was seen by people. He was just a literati, a strategist, a military advisor, and a military general.
When Sun Ce heard Liu Bei's words, he thought to himself, Liu Xuande has thrown this to me again, OK, OK. Since that's the case, let Gongjin talk as you wish. But after Gongjin finished speaking, you, Liu Xuande, will probably be unable to help but speak. Haha, even if you don't speak, your subordinates have to speak.
-----------------------------------------------------
Then Sun Ce said, "Gongjin. So since Duke Xuande is very kind, then you can tell me how our army will advance tomorrow?"
Zhou Yu smiled and said directly, "Lord, Duke Xuande, Yu thought that our army would attack Qichun separately tomorrow!"
When Sun Ce heard this, he hurriedly asked, "What do you mean by Gongjin?"
Even Liu Bei raised his ears and listened to what Zhou Yu was going to say. Although he felt that he was guessing it was a perfect match, he still had to know what he was going to say from Zhou Yu's mouth.
So I heard Zhou Yu say at this time, "This division of troops will be the attack, of course, our Jiangdong Army will attack once, and then the Xuande Gong team will be added to attack Qichun. Just go back and forth!"
When Liu Bei heard this, he thought to himself that it was true. Zhou Yu really thought so, but how could you let you do it easily? Haha, how could you!
-----------------------------------------------------
If we talk about the method Zhou Yu mentioned, it is definitely beneficial to their own side, that is, the Jiangdong Army.
Why do you say that? After all, the number one is that the Jiangdong Army has more people than the Liu Bei Army. It is said that they are twice as many as they are, which is a little more than twice theirs. After all, it is necessary to add the troops brought by Zhang Liao from Jiangdong, so...
Then Liu Bei suffered a loss because of the number of troops. If Sun Ce used 3,000 soldiers to attack the city every time, Liu Bei would have to use 3,000 afterwards. If Sun Ce used 5,000 or 10,000, Liu Bei's side must also do it, so Liu Bei's side will definitely suffer a loss, so he would agree with this method to make his side suffer a loss, obviously not.
After Zhou Yu smiled and said his own thoughts, he finally said to Liu Bei's side, "I don't know what Yu said just now, what does Xuande think?"
Zhou Yu, like Sun Ce, asked Liu Bei directly. Of course, Liu Bei would not agree, so he hurriedly gave Xu Shu a wink, and Xu Shu understood.
-----------------------------------------------------
Before Liu Bei could say anything, Xu Shu spoke first at the hint of his lord.
He only heard him say, "Gongjin's words are indeed good, but there are better ways to do this!"
Regarding Zhou Yu's words, Xu Shu first promoted and then suppressed. The first half of the sentence made Zhou Yu and Sun Ce feel that it was okay, but when he heard the latter words, Xu Shu's true face was revealed. However, Sun Ce's people didn't say anything. Originally, this was actually the same as bargaining, and the so-called "asking for a price everywhere, paying back the money on the spot", that's it.
Zhou Yu still looked smiling. After hearing Xu Shu's words, he didn't ask what happened to Liu Bei. After all, he knew that Liu Bei had actually handed this matter to Xu Shu. After all, he only had Xu Shu here now, plus Liu Ba, and these two advisers, so he must rely on them.
So Zhou Yu asked directly, "If you don't know Yuan Zhi's words, what is the better way?"
If you want to act, you have to act in the whole set, so since Xu Shu said that, Zhou Yu naturally won’t let him continue.
-----------------------------------------------------
When Xu Shu heard this, he said, "Lord, General Sun, what I mean is simple, that is, the coalition forces send troops to jointly attack Qichun!"
Everyone knew what Xu Shu meant, especially Liu Bei, who kept nodding. He thought to himself, yes, is the coalition forces? It is better for both sides to send troops together. Your Sun Bofu Jiangdong Army is halfway, and my side is also halfway. As for how much losses both sides have, it can only depend on the will of God. So how fair it is, isn't it much better than what Zhou Gongjin said before?
Who doesn’t want to get more benefits from it? So Liu Bei naturally agreed with Xu Shu’s words, and Xu Shu’s words were indeed what he said, but it depends on whether Sun Ce and the others agreed or disagreed.
Anyway, in Liu Bei's opinion, this is the most fair and appropriate method, so...
When Sun Ce and Zhou Yu heard this, they smiled. To be honest, Xu Shu's words were really as expected. So they really had nothing to surprise. And they had expected it, so they looked at each other and smiled.
-----------------------------------------------------
Liu Bei looked at the expressions of the two, but he didn't say anything. He could guess how much of their smiles were.
And Xu Shu asked again, "I wonder what General Sun thinks?"
Before, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu asked Liu Bei, but at this time it turned out to be Xu Shu asked Sun Ce. After all, the questioning was considered as taking the initiative. At least at this time, Xu Shu took the initiative, it depends on how Sun Ce and the others said it.
However, whether it is Xu Shu or Liu Bei, both of them knew that Sun Ce and Zhou Yu would probably agree. As for why, it was because this was a fair and stable form of siege for both sides. If Zhou Yu said before, his side would not agree, but now Sun Bofu’s side may not disagree, so Liu Bei and Xu Shu still have some confidence in this.
After hearing Xu Shu's words, Sun Ce looked at Zhou Yu directly, and Zhou Yu nodded to his lord. That's what he meant, let's just do it now, everyone was happy.
-----------------------------------------------------
I have known Zhou Yu for so many years, and Sun Ce can be said to be the clearest thing about what he means.
So at this time he said to Xu Shu and Liu Bei, "Okay, so since that's the case, then according to the teacher's words, is that good?"
At this time, Xu Shu said, "Okay, thank you General!" (To be continued...)
