Chapter three hundred and fifty seventh Jishui plan
It's not that Xun Yu didn't think about Li Dian's words, but doing so now is a bit deceptive and self-inflicted. Bao Xin's Lu County is in danger under the fierce attack of hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turbans and may fall at any time.
If he wants to fight a long-term battle, Bao Xin will inevitably become a victim. The longer the time, the greater the variables. These are things he does not want to see.
"Military advisor, why don't we use a borrowed knife to kill people?"
Although his plan was rejected, Li Dian immediately had another plan in mind.
"Kill someone with a borrowed knife? Let's talk about it."
Li Dian's words aroused Xun Yu's interest. He didn't know whether Li Dian had the same idea as his.
"Military advisor, after we find Liu Bei's position, we can send a cavalry to harass the Yellow Turbans, and then lead them to send troops towards Liu Bei. This will not only weaken Liu Bei's strength, but also arouse the hatred between the Yellow Turbans and Liu Bei. If both sides fight to the death, we will
You can reap the benefits of being a fisherman."
"Man City, this is a good plan, why don't you propose it in the big account?"
"Military advisor, this is just a little bit of cleverness on my part. You must have understood it already, so there is no need to bring it up at that time."
After listening to Li Dian's words, Xun Yu couldn't help but smile. If Li Dian is trained well, he will definitely become a wise general who is not weak to Cao Ren.
"Haha, you are really slippery, but I did think of the trick of killing with a borrowed knife, but this cannot be the main strategy to defeat the Yellow Turbans. Even if the Yellow Turbans and Liu Bei are hostile to each other, it is impossible to use all their strength to fight."
"Military advisor, how can we break this yellow scarf?"
Xun Yu rejected both of his strategies, so Li Dian was a little impatient.
"Man City, don't worry, aren't we trying to find a solution? Let's go to Jishui for a walk."
After Xun Yu finished speaking, he galloped forward on his horse.
"Jishui? Military advisor, please wait for me."
Li Dian was stunned for a moment, then quickly rode up to follow.
A group of more than a hundred riders bypassed Huangjin and Lu County and came to the bank of Jishui River.
"Military Advisor, what do you want to do in Jishui? The Jishui River is so gentle that it seems impossible to attack it with water."
Li Dian stared at the gentle Jishui River and couldn't help but use his brain to guess what Xun Yu was thinking.
"The Jishui River is gentle, that's why I came to see it. Let's go and walk upstream."
Xun Yu didn't say much, he just rode his horse and marched upward.
Nearly a hundred riders walked along Jishui for half an hour, and finally came to a wooden bridge.
“The scenery here is beautiful and suitable for a short rest.”
After Xun Yu said this, he got off his horse and went down to Jishui.
"Military advisor, are you confident?"
Xun Yu was like this, whether he was happy or sad, he never showed any emotion.
"Man City, water has no shape. Although Jishui is so gentle now, if he really goes crazy, even if you have a million troops, it will be difficult to resist him."
Xun Yu held up a handful of river water with both hands and gently caressed his face.
"But how can we make this Jishui go crazy?"
Li Dian also followed Xun Yu's example and took a handful of river water and slapped it on his face.
"Haha, I don't know either. Manchester City is coming with me, and the rest of us will rest here."
"promise."
After Xun Yu finished speaking, he came up from Jishui River, mounted his horse and led Li Dian towards the river bank.
"Military advisor, where are you taking me?"
After practicing the tea kung fu again along the way, Li Dian wondered what kind of medicine Xun Yu was selling in his gourd.
"Where? Right there."
Li Dian looked in the direction Xun Yu pointed. There was no one else there, only an old farmer sitting at the edge of the field.
"Lao Zhang."
Xun Yu and Li Dian led their horses to the field.
"Sir, I don't know what you are doing."
When the old farmer in the field saw Xun Yu leading his horse and showing his dignity, he didn't dare to be careless and quickly stood up to salute.
"Old man, I don't know how long it has been since it rained here. I think the water here is much smaller."
Xun Yu did not hesitate and sat down on the field ridge and asked him questions.
When the old farmer saw that Xun Yu didn't mind that the land was dirty, he sat down on the field ridge.
"It hasn't rained for a month, but it doesn't matter, it's only for the past few days."
"Old man, how do you say this?"
Hearing the old farmer's words, Xun Yu's eyes flashed with light.
"To tell you the truth, the most important thing for us in farming is the climate. We need to know when it rains and when the wind blows, so that we can plant seeds, increase fertilizer, and ensure the maximum yield of food. Don't look at the clear sky now, which can last up to seven days.
There will definitely be a heavy rain in no more than five days."
The old farmer did not hide anything and directly told his farming experience.
"Five days? Are you sure?"
Xun Yu glanced at the big sun in the sky and couldn't help but speak to the old farmer again to confirm.
"Believe it or not, it's up to you, just pretend I didn't say anything else."
Seeing Xun Yu's disbelief, the old farmer couldn't help but shook his head. There was no need to argue with this high official.
"That's how I thank my father-in-law. Li Dian, give me a sling of money."
"promise."
After Xun Yu finished speaking, he didn't even pat the dirt off his buttocks. He directly mounted his horse and rushed towards the camp.
When Li Dian saw Xun Yu leaving, he didn't think much about it. He threw down a large amount of money, got on his horse and followed Xun Yu.
"Military advisor, do you really believe that old farmer's nonsense?"
Li Dian rode his horse to catch up with Xun Yu. Seeing his urgent expression, he couldn't help but frown.
"Man City, don't underestimate the wisdom of farmers. They have been facing the sky in the Northern Dynasty all their lives. If they don't understand the weather, they will starve to death. I also calculated that it may rain in the past few days, but it cannot
I’m sure, if there is this old farmer now, it will be basically accurate.”
Xun Yu explained to Li Dian while galloping on his horse.
"Military advisor, are you sure about attacking with water?"
Since Xun Yu said so much, it is necessary to take advantage of the rain, accumulate rainwater, and then carry out the flood strategy.
"Yes, but we still need to take a long-term approach."
Xun Yu shook his head.
"Military advisor, what are the long-term plans now? This opportunity cannot be missed."
Li Dian was completely confused now. With such a good opportunity, why should he consider the long term?
"The most important thing now is Cheng Yu and the 40,000 to 50,000 troops under his command. How can we make them unable to interfere with our flooding of the Yellow Turbans."
Even though Xun Yu was unparalleled in intelligence, he was still scratching his head against a good opponent like Cheng Yu.
The group of people rushed quickly and returned directly to their camp.
"Manchester City."
"exist."
"Immediately lead 10,000 soldiers and horses into two groups. One group will cut off the river at a small bridge, and the other group will build a dike about ten miles west across the small bridge."
"??"
Li Dian became even more depressed now. Isn't it necessary to implement a flood strategy? Why do we need to build two dams? What do you mean?
"Don't ask so many questions, just follow the plan."
"promise."
Since Xun Yu was not prepared to inform him, Li Dian didn't say much and simply nodded and promised to organize troops and advance towards the predetermined location.
"Where is Yuan Rang? Is there any news about Cheng Yu?"
