Dianman used twenty soldiers from the Langya Battalion to control the prefect's mansion, wrote an order to seal off the city, stamped it with Guo Ming's seal and ribbon as the prefect of Zhaojun, and sent people out of the city to deliver the news.
The moon is high and the night is hazy.
Two soldiers from Langya Camp hurried out of the city and rushed towards the camp where the army was stationed.
Outside the city, in the mountains and forests.
Shu army camp, Chinese army tent.
Huang Zhong and Jia Xu were sitting above, and below were two soldiers from Langya Camp who had just returned to camp. When he learned that the governor of Zhao County, Guo Ming, had surrendered, Huang Zhong said with a smile on his face: "Military advisor, the governor of Zhao County, Guo Ming, has surrendered.
No one knows the news yet, so we take this opportunity to control Zhao County. This is a God-given opportunity."
Jia Xu nodded and said, "Let's go into the city immediately."
The two quickly came to the military camp, gathered the soldiers, and rushed towards the county town.
On the city tower, Guo Ming ordered the soldiers guarding the city to open the city gate and reluctantly ushered the Shu army into the city. More than 3,000 Shu army soldiers entered the city without being blocked. Because Guo Ming had already ordered surrender, such an order made the city defenders uncomfortable.
The soldiers were surprised, but no one came out to object, and they acquiesced to the Shu army's entry into the city.
After Jia Xu led his army into the city, he immediately ordered the city gates to be closed and no one was allowed in to prevent the news from spreading.
In this way, the news of the loss of the county seat was sealed.
In the next five days, Jia Xu used Guo Ming's prefect's seal, plus the surrendered soldiers in the county, and cooperated with the soldiers from the Langya Camp to quickly conquer Zhongqiu County, Bairen County, Gaoyi County, and Yuan County in Zhao County.
Shi County and other places were captured. With Guo Ming's order, Shu army soldiers easily entered each county, took control of the situation, and controlled all counties.
This action swept through the entire Zhao County like a tornado.
…
Prefect's Mansion, in the hall.
Jia Xu was sitting at the top of the hall, and Huang Zhong, Guo Ming, Dianman and others were sitting below.
Zhaojun fell into the hands of the Shu army, and Guo Ming made indelible contributions. He had been tied to the Shu army's warship, and it was impossible to withdraw. At this time, Guo Ming had changed his mind, and for his own sake
For the sake of his future, and for the safety of his wife, children, and parents at home, he became an official loyal to Wang Can. He was loyal and tried his best to make suggestions.
Noriman made great achievements and was very excited.
He stood up and said loudly: "Military advisor, let's take Zhao County and simply rush into Jizhou and continue to attack the city and plunder the territory."
After Huang Zhong considered it carefully, he shook his head and said: "Aman, we were able to capture Zhao County thanks to the military counselor's clever plan. Such a clever plan can be used once or twice, but there will always be times when it is exposed. Besides, we
There are only 3,000 people, and including the surrendered Zhaojun soldiers, there are only 10,000 or 20,000, and they cannot withstand the attack."
Dianman still refused to give up and said: "We feed war with war and plunder in Jizhou."
Huang Zhong said: "The overall situation is of paramount importance and we cannot act recklessly. If we cause chaos in Jizhou, Xiahou Dun will probably lead his army to kill us. By then, we will be surrounded by the Wei army and will be destroyed immediately. The current focus is not on attacking
Instead of plundering the city, we destroyed the 100,000-strong army led by Xiahou Dun and defeated Cao Cao’s forces deployed in Jizhou.”
Jia Xu smiled and said: "Han Sheng is right. We should give up attacking Jizhou for the time being and destroy Xiahou Dun first."
After a pause, Jia Xu looked at Dianman and ordered: "Aman, send a message to Fazheng, tell him that Zhaojun has been captured, and ask him to lure Xiahoudun into battle and change the stalemate. He and Xiahoudun will fight, and our
The army rushed to the Wei army's camp and attacked the Wei army."
"promise!"
Norimitsu responded with clasped fists and immediately carried out the order.
…
At the junction of Zhao County and Leping County, the Shu Army camp.
In the large tent of the Chinese army, Zhao Yun, Fazheng and others gathered in the tent to discuss countermeasures. Previously, news came back that Jia Xu had captured Zhao County, and the generals in the army marveled at Jia Xu's ability.
Unexpectedly, Jia Xu acted so quickly and captured Zhao County in a short time.
When Fazheng received the news, he felt sour in his heart.
He and Sima Yi had been confronting each other for so long without gaining any advantage. When Jia Xu arrived in Bingzhou, he sent out three thousand soldiers to remove Huang Zhong and Dianman, and he achieved military success in the blink of an eye.
Ginger is old and spicy, and it makes judgments between superiors and superiors.
Zhao Yun understood Fazheng's mood and knew that Fazheng had some thoughts, but now was not the time for such matters. He looked at Fazheng and said: "Xiaozhi, Military Advisor Jia asked us to lure the Wei army into battle, and time is a bit tight. Some time ago,
I led people to challenge one after another, but the Wei army refused to fight. What can you do to lure the Wei army to attack?"
Fazheng said: "The weather is hot, this is an opportunity to attract the Wei army."
Zhao Yun hurriedly asked: "What should we do specifically?"
Fa Zheng said: "Although it is autumn, the weather is still hot, which allows the soldiers to pretend to relax their vigilance. After Sima Yi learned about the situation, he would not send troops for a day or two, but as time goes by, it will definitely have an effect. Especially since the Wei army has
A grumpy Xiahou Dun will definitely not give up. The Wei army has withdrawn its troops one after another, and Xiahou Dun has already held his breath. When he sees the opportunity to defeat the enemy, he will definitely take the initiative to attack. Don't worry, sir."
Zhao Yun said in a deep voice: "Okay, just do as Xiaozhi said."
…
Wei army camp, Chinese army tent.
Xiahou Dun and Sima Yi sat high above, and a scout stood below.
The scout bowed to Xiahou Dun and Sima Yi, and said respectfully: "Reporting to the Commander-in-Chief, the Shu army relaxed its vigilance. Many soldiers ran out of the camp and rested in the woods outside the camp. Even the defenders inside the camp were lazy.
disperse."
Sima Yi snorted coldly and said, "This must be a trick of the Shu army to lure the enemy."
After a pause, he continued: "Fa Zheng can't solve the situation, so he resorts to low-level methods. His skills are exhausted!"
Hearing this, Xiahou Dun had a hesitant look on his face. He struggled for a long time and said, "What Zhongda said makes sense. It's probably a conspiracy set up by Fazheng."
When Sima Yi heard this, a smile appeared on his face.
Xiahou Dun changed the topic and said: "However, it is not impossible to pull chestnuts out of the fire."
Sima Yi had a look of surprise on his face. He didn't expect Xiahou Dun to want to fight. He patiently persuaded: "Grand Governor, we have to stay calm. The Shu army is waiting for us to attack. We hold our ground until they get impatient and then become
If they really let down their guard, then it is up to them. Only by sending troops at that time can we achieve the greatest effect."
Xiahou Dun nodded and said, "Okay, do it your way."
For several days in a row, the soldiers who were probing for news came to report the news. All the news was about the Shu army. The news every day was that the Shu army relaxed its vigilance and did not put up any defense.
Soldiers of the Shu army could enter and leave the camp at will, and many soldiers were enjoying the cool weather outside the camp.
Such news spread for three days in a row. Sima Yi could still hold his own, but Xiahou Dun could not. He called for Sima Yi and said in a deep voice: "Zhongda, judging from the current situation, the real Shu army is a fake show."
If you really do it, you will really let down your guard. I think we can attack, and we will definitely defeat the Shu army this time."
Sima Yi said: "Grand Governor, it is really inappropriate to attack now."
"Why is it inappropriate?"
Xiahou Dun's eyes widened and he was very unhappy.
Sima Yi said: "The weather continues to be hot, and the Shu army will be more relaxed."
Xiahou Dun said stubbornly: "I have always agreed with your suggestions in the past, but now the Shu army has become looser. Speaking of which, this was also caused by you. You avoided fighting everywhere and made the Shu army think that we did not dare to fight.
Relax your vigilance. Zhongda, sometimes you cannot think perfectly. Now is a great opportunity to defeat the Shu army. I am the commander, ready to attack the Shu army."
Sima Yi had no choice but to nod his head and said: "I will attack the Shu army according to the command of the great governor."
Xiahou Dun smiled and said, "This is right!"
Sima Yi added: "Although we are attacking the Shu army, we must formulate a good strategy and make complete preparations. Grand Governor, we must discuss it carefully."
Xiahou Dun nodded and said, "I don't care about these things, it's up to you."
"promise!"
Sima Yi surrendered and prepared for the next battle.
