There are gentlemen in the Three Kingdoms

Guo Jia sighed and looked miserable: "For such a bad friend like you, Guo will have to fall out with almost all his old friends... If you don't give Guo a long month's money, it's his mother."

The strategy in Guo Jia's words is very sound, and the opponent's strength is very strong. There are indeed many resourceful men in Cao's army. No matter how reasonable Chen Gui's remonstrance is, the Xuzhou army cannot blindly go to Yanzhou to make trouble.

"Then what should we do next?" The potter asked Guo Jia.

Guo Jia smiled hesitantly and betrayed him.

"Since Mr. Taiping asked Guo this way, he must have already planned something in his mind. You and I might as well write all the strategies in our minds in our palms, and then see if they match, how about?"

The pottery merchant rolled his eyes: "I really admire you, but you are still playing tricks at a time like this...Come here, get your pen and ink."

When they were young, a servant brought the brush and ink over. Guo Jia and the potter turned their backs to each other, each wrote their thoughts in their palms, and then stretched out their hands to each other and opened them at the same time.

But I saw "Liang Guo" written on Guo Jia's palm.

And the potter's hand reads "Assault on Base Camp".

Guo Jia smiled, nodded and said: "That's right, all resourceful people in the world see the same thing, it seems that the two of us really want to go together...surprise Liang Guo...but Guo has to criticize you, what is an attack? Headquarters? You don’t have any more literary words? Guo Mou is really demeaning himself when he is with you.”

The pottery merchant chuckled, and said, "Pull it down, you can see your bad handwriting for yourself, I'm with you and it's only at this level that it falls down."

"What do you know, Mr. Guo is a crazy book!"

While talking, there was a sound of footsteps outside the conference hall, Xu Rong, Xu Huang, and Tao Ji hurried into the conference hall.

Xu Rong saluted the potter and Guo Jia respectively, and then said solemnly: "Your Majesty! Mr. Guo! Cao Jun has made a move!"

Hearing this, the potter got up hastily.

"What kind of motion and stillness?"

Tao Ji stepped forward and presented a memorial to the potter.

"Brother, many counties under Peijun were attacked by Cao's army at the same time last night. Thanks to us moving the people inward in advance, the cities in Peijun were burnt, and the loss is really not small."

The potter and Guo Jia exchanged meaningful glances with each other.

When I was young, Fang saw Guo Jia and asked Xu Rong: "Which counties have been besieged by Cao Jun?"

Xu Rong carefully listed for Guo Jia: "Zhuqiu, Taiqiu, Fengxian, Fuli, Gongqiu, Mingxian, Guyang, and Qixian, there are eight counties that Cao's army raided."

"So many?" The potter's eyes widened suddenly: "Whose banner is the other party playing?"

Xu Rong reported: "According to the spies' report, the generals of the Cao army attacking the county are Xiahoudun, Li Dian, Lejin, Cao Chun, Cao Hong, Pang De, Xiahouyuan, and Yujin."

When Guo Jia heard this, a strange smile appeared on his face.

"Eight county towns, eight generals go out at the same time, what is the purpose?" Guo Jia asked the generals with a smile.

Xu Rong said cautiously: "Cao Jun wantonly cleaned up the county towns around Peijun. Could it be that he wants to isolate Xiangxian County, where we stationed troops, so that we can attack the city with all our strength next time?"

Guo Jia shook his head and said: "No, as Guo expected, Cao Jun's intention is to confuse our army, making us think that they are about to attack Pei County, so we will stick to it carefully and not dare to go beyond half a step... It seems that old man Chen Gui's remonstrance is quite pertinent for the strategy of trapping the enemy."

The pottery merchant also laughed when he heard the words: "In this way, we really have to make a surprise attack on this land of Liang Kingdom."

Guo Jia shook his head and said, "If Cao Jun hadn't attacked the eight counties at the same time, we might be able to harass Liang Guo... But now that the other party has made such a plan, Liang Guo can't simply attack it. Find another way to get it... The Eighth Army attacked the city overnight, such a big hand, such a cunning military strategy, hehe, Guo can probably guess who is in the Liang Kingdom."

……

Liang Guoguo is located in Suiyang and has nine counties under its jurisdiction. Historically, before the country was expelled at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the fifth and sixth kings of Liang were passed down for more than a hundred years.

Now, Xia Houyuan, a general under Cao Cao's command, is stationed in Suiyang together with Xun You, Cao's current military advisor.

As a general of Cao Cao's clan, Xia Houyuan's ability to use soldiers has gradually begun to emerge, especially the method of rushing tactics, which Xia Houyuan has thoroughly studied and studied.

This time, all eight forces attacked the eight counties in Peijun and caused Cao Jun to retreat completely. Others would definitely not be able to do it. Only Xia Houyuan took action to achieve such a miraculous effect.

And the person who made Xia Houyuan act like this was undoubtedly the military advisor Xun You.

"Mr. Gongda, Yuan has sent troops to attack eight counties in Pei County according to Mr. Gongda's instructions, and set up the banners of eight town generals in our army! This bluff will definitely make Tao Jun frightened, hehe , now they will definitely strengthen the city defense, and they will not be able to defend it!"

Xun You is 37 years old this year. He is almost middle-aged, but he is well maintained. He looks like he is only in his early thirties.

"Beautiful talents should not be careless. Liang Guo Shilu Township General is a false move. In the Xuzhou army, there is no one with absolute wisdom who can see through it. However, I heard that Guo Fengxiao was a soldier under the command of a pottery merchant. This person shared with us in Yingchuan Academy. When you are a scholar, you have extraordinary talents, and my bluffing method can deceive others, but it may not be able to deceive him."

Xia Houyuan wondered: "The one surnamed Guo is so amazing? Can he see through Mr. Gongda's coup?"

Xun You half-closed his eyes and nodded, "Nine out of ten...and as I expected, Guo Fengxiao is likely to persuade the potters to send troops to attack Liang Guo as a test."

"Guo still dares to sneak attack Liang Guo?" Xia Houyuan looked at Xun You in surprise and said, "He doesn't want to die. Although there are really no soldiers and horses here, it is also an important town for defense. If Tao Jun dares to come, Yuan will order It comes and goes!"

Xun You nodded with a smile: "Guo Jia is a man who is very unpredictable and fickle. He is really my opponent. If there is no accident, this son will definitely steal the Liang Kingdom, and it is definitely not a simple sneak attack. You can't be careless if you are brilliant. It needs to be guarded against.”

Chapter 332 Xun You and Guo Jia

Within Peijun, the soldiers and horses of the Xuzhou Army began to move.

Under Guo Jia's strong request, the potters handed over all the power to formulate strategies and command and deploy the entire army to Guo Jia.

It was because Guo Jia told the potter that he wanted to compete with that old friend from Liang Guo, and try his skills.

It seemed that Guo Jia recognized the person in Liang Guo very much.

On the fifth day after the eight counties in Pei County were ravaged by Cao Jun, Jinling City finally launched an operation.

The two armies led by Xu Huang and Tao Ji, totaling 5000 elite soldiers, were divided into two armies, each with [-] men and horses, and began to march towards Suiyang City, the seat of Liang State.

As soon as the [-] Jinling troops entered the territory of Liang State, Cao Jun's scouts brought the news back to Xia Houyuan.

Xia Houyuan was taken aback when he heard this. He thought that the bluff would surely suppress the Xuzhou army, and let them step up their defenses in Peijun and dare not act rashly.

Who would have thought that they would really dare to take the initiative to attack and come to test their own reality.

It seems that, as Xun You said, the other party has seen through their true intention of "conquering Xuzhou" this time.

This time I really underestimated the Xuzhou people.

Xia Houyuan was ordered by Cao Cao to sit in the state of Liang and guard the east. He had [-] troops in Suiyang, and Xu Huang and Tao Ji had a total of [-] troops to attack Xiayi and Mengxian. , it should not be difficult for our own side to destroy them.

Therefore, Xia Houyuan was about to send troops to attack Xu Huang and Tao Ji.

Just as he was ordering troops, Xun You stopped Xia Houyuan's action.

He calmly analyzed the current situation to Xia Houyuan.

"Miaocai, the fact that the Jinling Army dared to drive troops into Liang State means that they have seen through Cao Gong's intention to not attack Xuzhou for the time being. The Jinling Army suffered losses after the battle with Yuan Shu and the Xiliang Army, but recently Recruiting Yan Baihu and Ruo Rong's people, removing the rough and saving the fine, and then removing the navy, the number of horses should be about 1, and Cao Bao's soldiers and horses should be no less than [-]. Xu Huang and Tao Ji [-] troops entered the territory of Liang State to attack the second county. If there is no accident, this is Guo Fengxiao's false move. The remaining [-] soldiers and horses in Pei County should target Suiyang where we are. If Miaocai really goes to rescue, then this But the city may not be able to survive.”

Xia Houyuan held his breath and said, "Should we just let the Xuzhou army attack our county without doing anything?"
