After taking over for Zhang Ning, Qin Tian did not stay at the city lord's palace, but rode his horse straight out of the city to a manor outside Qingtian City, where Jia Xu lived.
Although Jia Xu was nominally an aide sent to Qin Tian by Dong Zhuo, he rarely appeared in public. He liked to be quiet, so Qin Tian built a manor for him outside Qingtian City specifically for him to live in, unless
If something big happens, otherwise, Jia Xu will rarely leave this manor.
Most of these celebrities have weird tempers and like to test others. Zhuge Liang is the best example. Whether he is aloof or pretentious, he has that kind of ability. As a top counselor in the Three Kingdoms, Qin Tian will also have some personality.
Choose tolerance, and at the critical moment, Jia Xu will not sit idly by. Just like last time, although he simply said four words, "Strengthen the wall and clear the country," it was not a good strategy, but these four words, plus Qin Tian
, Xu Rong’s efforts made Yuan Shu suffer a big loss here.
Qin Tian has been very patient with Jia Xu. Now, because of Zhang Ning's opportunity, Qin Tian is finally ready to take action. Although he has been preparing for more than two months, before that, he still wants to hear Jia Xu's opinion.
Although it was Jia Xu's manor, Qin Tian was considered half the owner. The soldiers responsible for guarding did not dare to stop him, but Qin Tian still let them go in first and report before entering.
"Mr. Wenhe, I haven't seen you for a few days. You look good." In the study, Jia Xu timidly sipped fragrant tea and read with a volume of writing paper. When Qin Tian arrived, he did not greet him, but only signaled Qin Tian with his eyes.
Take a seat.
Qin Tian was not annoyed. After sitting down, he said politely that he knew very well that the official position of a prefect might have a deterrent effect on ordinary NPCs, but for someone like Jia Xu, let alone the prefect of a county, he was the governor of a state.
Those who have no ability may not be taken seriously. Therefore, Qin Tian's attitude is very low.
"Your Excellency, you are here late at night just to reminisce with Xu?" Jia Xu put down his writing and asked his servants to serve tea to Qin Tian, looking at Qin Tian with a half-smile.
"Well, I'm going to send troops to Kuaiji and Danyang, and annex these two counties before next year. What do you think, sir?" Qin Tian smiled bitterly and nodded. With such a smart man, it's best not to play any tricks and be honest.
You must speak out, otherwise you will be humiliating yourself.
"Since you already have a plan in your mind, what's the difference between saying it or not saying it?" Jia Xu said with a smile.
"I want to hear what you mean, sir." Qin Tian's eyes suddenly seemed a little threatening, and his eyes fell on Jia Xu's face with a serious look, making Jia Xu feel quite uncomfortable.
After a moment of silence, Jia Xu sighed slightly and said: "Ming Gong now has a strong army, but it may be difficult to swallow Danyang and Kuaiji together. Moreover, Yuan Jiujiu may not be able to make Ming Gong realize his wish. How many people do Xu have?"
This is a suggestion, Mr. Ming may consider it."
"Want to hear the details!" A smile appeared on Qin Tian's face. From Jia Xu's name to him, it is not difficult to hear the change in Jia Xu's attitude towards him. Ming Gong and your lord, it seems there is no difference, in fact, it is already
A big improvement. Calling "Sir" means that Jia Xu is a counselor sent by Dong Zhuo to help Qin Tian, while Ming Gong means that Jia Xu has regarded himself as a member of Qin Tian's camp.
"With Ming Gong's current strength, both Kuaiji and Danyang can be defeated in one battle. However, fighting on two fronts at the same time is a bit unrealistic. Xu suggested that Ming Gong attack Danyang first, then Kuaiji, and send a general at the same time.
Guard Dantu to prevent Yuan Shu!" Jia Xu said.
"Why not attack Kuaiji first and then attack Danyang?" Qin Tian frowned and said, after the last battle in Kuaiji, his vitality was severely damaged. General Shi Yong surrendered and lost 100,000 soldiers and horses. For Yuan Shu, maybe 100,000 troops
It's nothing, but for these small princes who only have one county under their control, the loss of a hundred thousand troops is definitely a traumatic loss. If it weren't for Yuan Shu's huge compensation and the large number of Yellow Turban refugees who moved during this period,
Wujun is probably not much better than Kuaiji.
If he sent troops to Kuaiji, Qin Tian was sure that he would capture the entire Kuaiji within ten days. This was also the reason for his hesitation. He had to pick the soft persimmons. Compared with Danyang, Kuaiji could indeed be called a soft persimmon.
"Haha, if Ming Gong only wants one county in Kuaiji, it is natural to attack Kuaiji first. But if he wants to capture two counties, he has to attack Danyang first. If he wants to attack two counties at the same time, he will definitely fail." Jia Xu shook his head and said.
"Qingtian is stupid, sir, can you explain in detail?" Qin Tian frowned slightly.
Jia Xu nodded, took down a sheepskin map from the bookshelf, spread it out on the table, pointed at Danyang and said: "If we attack Kuaiji first, what will Duke Ming do if he is Liu Yao?"
"Send troops to contain it. If I were Liu Yao, I would not let Wu County capture Kuaiji easily. Kuaiji is here and can be a nail in Wu County's rear. If Kuaiji is captured by Wu County, our army will no longer have to worry about anything!" Qin Tianchen
vocal tract.
"Yes, although Kuaiji is empty, it is not without the ability to fight back. Once the war reaches a stalemate and it is not good for Ming Gong, Yuan Shu will not sit back and watch Ming Gong grow stronger. Although it is impossible to attack in an overall situation, it is very likely to send troops to harass."
Jia Xu smiled.
"Isn't it the same to attack Danyang first? There is still some chance of winning if we attack Kuaiji, but if we send troops to Danyang, we will also face attacks from three parties. Moreover, with Danyang's strength, it is easier to fall into the quagmire of war." Qin Tian frowned and said, Wu Jun
Although after two months of recovery, a large number of resources and people have moved in, it will also take time to digest the large number of people who have moved in. If it cannot be successful in one fell swoop, it is likely to fall into a quagmire of war. This is the situation Qin Tian least wants to see.
"It's not three parties, but one party!" Jia Xu pointed to the map and said: "Wang Langjing's vitality was severely damaged in the last battle. This man has talent and strategy, but no courage. He only needs one general to defend Yuhang.
It would take at least fifteen days for Yuan Shu to get the news and mobilize his troops. Ming Gong only needed to gain a decisive advantage within these fifteen days, and Yuan Shu could only sit back and watch Ming Gong gather the three troops.
County!" Jia Xu said slowly.
"Moreover, there is another point. If Danyang can be conquered in one battle, Kuaiji will be the turtle in the urn. Even if Yuan Shu wants to help Wang Lang, he is unable to do so. You must know that in terms of navy, our army is far superior to Yuan Shu.
Yuan Shu may not dare to send out the few navy troops left." Jia Xu used a pen to connect Danyang with Huainan and Lujiang.
"In other words, there is a time difference between Yuan Shu and Yuan Shu?" Qin Tian has amazing talent in this area, and Jia Xu understood what he meant after a little hint.
Although they wanted to attack Wu County and Kuaiji, the main defense was against Yuan Shu. Jia Xu's intention was to settle the battle before Yuan Shu could react.
"That's pretty much it," Jia Xu said with a smile.
"But Yuan Shu is not stupid. He has Yan Xiang around him. How can he deceive them? Moreover, Danyang is not Kuaiji. Liu Yao has always held the idea of sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight. Now he can be regarded as a strong soldier. In fifteen days,
It's a bit difficult to win decisively." Qin Tian frowned.
"It's not difficult to deceive Yuan Shu. Ming Gong only needs to break up the troops into parts, transfer them to Wucheng in batches, and then use the excuse of training sailors to go to Qu'a and Canglan to train the navy.
Not only can we deceive Yuan Shu, but we can also make Liu Yao relax his guard, and then use his troops to attack the fault, open the gate of Danyang, and then go all out to capture Wanling. By then, even if Yuan Shu reacts, it will be too late."
Fault is the only city in Wanling where Wucheng went to Danyang. As long as Fault is captured, he can directly attack Wanling. As for Kuaiji, as Jia Xu said, most of them will choose to wait and see, and at most send troops to harass the Yuhang area.
Qin Tian was reassured by Lao Lang's ability and the ability to fortify the city.
"Sir, you really have a plan, Qingtian admires it." Qin Tian cupped his hands towards Jia Xu, who smiled and nodded, extending his hand to support him.
"By the way, sir, last month, I sent someone to Chang'an to ask the Commander-in-Chief to allow Qingtian to keep Mr. Qingtian. The Commander-in-Chief has agreed and sent Mr. Qingtian's wife and children along with him." Qin Tian was about to leave.
Suddenly he turned around and looked at Jia Xudao.
Jia Xu's body suddenly trembled, and a cold light flashed in his eyes when he looked at Qin Tian. It was obvious that he was very angry.
Qin Tian did not show any weakness and looked directly at Jia Xu: "Sir, you should know Qingtian's sincerity. Qingtian is aware of the threat in this move and just wants to ask for your help. If you agree, Qingtian is willing to treat him as a teacher!"
The ancients had the same teachers as their fathers. Qin Tian did not really want to recognize Jia Xu as his father. In fact, in the eyes of Qin Tian or modern people, it is not an exaggeration for a person to have several or even a dozen teachers, but in the ancients
He has only one teacher in his life. The reason for this condition is that Qin Tian has read the classics these days and is very clear about the position of teachers in the hearts of people in this era, so he boldly gave it a try.
In reality, someone once summarized the meaning of ancient counselors on the Internet and summarized several levels.
As a counselor, you must first be able to "plan" yourself. If you can't even save your own life, how can you plan for people, soldiers, country, and world? Use your own strategies to survive and live a valuable life.
It is the most basic condition for becoming a counselor. Therefore, "consulting oneself" is the first level of a counselor.
Secondly, "strategize" people. After learning to plan for yourself, you must also learn to plan for others. If a counselor cannot make plans for others, what kind of counselor can he be called? If a counselor cannot make plans for others, what is the use value? That's why,'
"Conspiracy" is the second realm of counselors.
The third part of 'plotting' soldiers. If you can plan for yourself and others, you can only save a few people, but as a counselor, he must have the ability to "plan" the lives of thousands of people. This is the third part of "plotting"
Layer realm - planning and planning of troops is a major matter for the country; war is the continuation of politics.
The fourth is 'Consulting' the country. Compared with 'Consulting the country', planning for one person and planning for thousands of people are both at a very shallow level. If a person can do 'Consulting the country' (the country refers to the power of the princes), he must have
Far-sighted vision and superhuman insight are not something ordinary people can possess.
Finally, it is to plan the world. If you truly achieve the above points, such a counselor can be a very strategic person, but he cannot be called a real "strategist". A real counselor must have an ability that others do not have -
—Consult the world!
Among the Three Kingdoms, generals gathered and counselors emerged one after another, but there were only a few counselors who truly had the ability to "plan the world," and Jia Xu was one of them.
