As for the attack on Cai, Li Jie planned to take a rest and then directly engage in a decisive battle.
After all, Xincai is also a famous big city and is close to Rushui, so the natural conditions are very good.
When the Chu State attacked Cai, they did not actually go through the Huai River. After all, there were Tang State and Sui State in between, and the Dabie Mountains to the east. Attacking Cai from south to north was generally a waste of time.
The main direction of Chu's attack on Cai... was to tease Cai by the way after Chu and the great powers of the Central Plains fought each other.
In short, it's not that serious, it's very casual.
So what should County Magistrate Li do? The old man from Chu who flirted with Cai Guo is so useless, what should he do? Pay high attention to Cai Guo’s local advantages or something else?
It doesn’t exist. You must be proud, and you must be proud. You can’t stop it.
If he himself doesn't drift, the soldiers below can't help but drift too.
Too bad.
However, the pronunciation of "Cai" in Cai Guo is different from that of "cai" in Caiji.
It probably sounds like "嚓".
So when County Magistrate Li faced Cai Guo, he always felt that he had brought his own BGM, so I’ll wipe it off...
"Report!"
"What's up?"
County Magistrate Li, who was taking a nap in the big house, had his legs crossed on a spring stool. This thing is still new and no one has used it. It was just sold by a businessman from Qi State.
County Magistrate Li was going to find the Xia family's "Little Xia Ji from Liaocheng" first, and have a look at her appearance. If she met the standard of beauty, she would take stock of her.
He didn't believe it. He couldn't beat Chen Guoqing's snake spirit. It was because of the education that Xiaoqing received since childhood. When he heard that this "Little Xia Ji from Liaocheng" was not the kind of person who could kill people with a sword, she must be as gentle as water. She must be as gentle as water.
Extremely gentle and considerate.
"Captain Jia's secret message!"
"Jia Gui?!"
Li Jie jumped up and sat up suddenly, then reached out and grabbed the wax-sealed bamboo tube from Chen An, the captain of the fifth brigade.
After removing the wax seal with a flick of his thumb, Li Jie opened the letter and looked at it, and was stunned: "Defense plan?"
The location and size of the Xincai garrison and the distribution of water sources are all clearly marked by category, which can be said to be quite in place.
However, County Magistrate Li was a little depressed: "What's the use? Cai Hou has already run away. That trash is worse than Zi Ling Fei. Zi Ling Fei is still upright, although not strong enough. This Cai Hou can run away with oil on his soles."
Faster than Yun Zhenlu."
With his hands behind his back, Li Jie walked back and forth for a while and said to Chen An, "Chen An, I remember you are from the Chen country?"
"General, An Que is from the state of Chen."
"Are you familiar with Shang and Cai? Chen and Cai are adjacent to each other. Have you ever been there?"
Chen An shook his head in embarrassment: "Brother Tongan is just a commoner..."
The reason why these two people are top-notch has something to do with their fate. Chen Kui was born in Lifu, but later because of his strength, he became an umbrella for others. He was not a noble of a big country, but a village cadre of Rong Kingdom.
However, it can be regarded as changing Chen Kui's destiny to some extent. Under the influence, Chen Kui understood the truth and the importance of learning.
Later, Feng Xu, a doctor from the Rong Kingdom, jumped out to support Li Jie, and he joined the "Yi Dan Camp". With his previous accumulation, he naturally seized the opportunity and did not let up, and even took his younger brother Chen An to work in the Force Yang Kingdom.
.
Chen An's promotion was related to his brother, but not much. The reason why he was able to become the captain was mainly because he seized another opportunity. Others would hesitate between the nobles and Li Jie, but he did not.
No matter how nonsense Li Jie's order was, Chen An would resolutely execute any man he wanted to kill without any hesitation.
His attitude is the most determined, and he naturally outperforms others.
The two brothers did not win based on their strongest skills, but because their comprehensive qualities best met Li Jie's needs.
But now it's embarrassing. After all, Chen An is a commoner and cannot wander around casually. When Li Jie asked him about Cai Guo, he was obviously asking Yu Blind.
Li Jie didn't care, but Chen An felt ashamed for not helping the boss.
"It doesn't matter if you're not familiar with it, it doesn't matter if you're a commoner. It's time for you to catch up. I'm going to let you travel at public expense to a bigger city, such as Shangcai."
"..."
The vocabulary was too large, and Chen An didn't understand what the boss was saying, but it didn't matter, Li Jie obviously didn't intend for Chen An to understand.
Finally, Chen An figured out something. It turned out that the boss wanted him to lead the fifth brigade of martyrs as a separate unit and sneak around Cai Guo.
"Do you have any confidence?!"
"have!"
"Don't be wary, don't get entangled with Cai Jun, and don't stay hundreds of miles away from friendly forces."
"yes!"
"To find out the environment north of Qingcai, there will be people accompanying the five teams. All ditches, water sources, passes and crossings must be marked. The number of people in villages and settlements, the number of livestock..."
County Magistrate Li clasped his fingers. Although he had already been taught and emphasized this in Biyang Country, he still emphasized it again out of habit.
Chen An soon understood that his mission this time was actually to collect intelligence publicly.
Judging from how frightened Cai Guo's troops are now, with a large group running around, no Cai Guo troops would dare to fight in the field.
In fact, even if Li Jie crosses Rushui, the tough guy he will meet will only be Xincai and not anywhere else.
However, County Magistrate Li is very arrogant now. He is not crazy, but it is still okay to be arrogant.
For example, set a small goal, and once the three-day rest period is over, Xincai City will be destroyed.
Can the destruction of the city be a problem? Can that be a problem?!
After Chen An left, Li Jie quickly re-read the information sent by Jia Gui, rubbing his chin while reading: "Jia Gui has a way, he can do it too, awesome! Cai Hou, this
Although the trash has left, there are still people left to guard the city. With this map, we can get twice the result with half the effort."
It's just that Chen An was here just now. In front of his younger brother, he must still have to show off. Doesn't he want the general's face?
"It's amazing, Jia Gui, Jia Gui, you are such a damn talent! You can even find the secret passage between Daying and Xincai. Could this be because you have dug pits in addition to digging out manure before?"
On the drawing, Jia Gui specifically marked the tunnel between Xinchai Zuoshi Camp and Dongguo. The entire Zuoshi Camp and Xincai Dongguo appear to be angles to each other, but in fact they are a whole.
If we were to attack the city and try to kill Zuo Shi's camp first, wouldn't we be asking for trouble?
"Hey, why don't you be a little more immoral? Dig up your water and flood Xincai."
County Magistrate Li thought for a while, if Xincai was soaked, how many people would be displaced by then. The summer grain is coming, and the grain is innocent.
So County Magistrate Li gestured at the distance between Rushui and Xincai, thinking that it would be better to look at the sky.
If it rains tomorrow, Xincai will be flooded.
If it doesn't rain tomorrow, it will flood tonight.
