Chapter 685 Huo Zhongmiao asks Xu Shu for advice
When he returned to his tent, Guo Jia sighed in his heart, thinking that his lord was not like this before, but why today... Of course, with Guo Jia's intelligence, it is natural to see that his lord did not do it on purpose and had a backup plan, but was actually trying to dig a tunnel to fight the enemy. Just like what he said, he had to try it. If he didn't try it, he might not be willing to accept it.
Guo Jia naturally didn't think this was a good thing. If his lords do not listen to others like this, then there would be a big problem sooner or later. But at this time, he was blocked by Jiangling City for many days, and it had been too long, so he really couldn't say anything discouraging to his lord. Otherwise, with his lord's temper, he really didn't know what to do. So this is what Guo Jia was worried about. He naturally didn't want Ma Chao to do this, but this...
Finally, he could only sigh lightly and said to himself: "I hope my lord won't be like this today and can't listen to others' words. If you really do this, it's not easy to deal with!"
-----------------------------------------------------
For Guo Jia, although this was not what he expected, he did not like it or want his lord to do so, but the current situation made him unable to start. He had no choice but to make a decision for his lord. If such a thing is just something today, then everything is easy to say. But it's scary. This is just the beginning. If that's the case, it will be difficult to deal with in the future. Guo Jia naturally doesn't want his lord to become the kind of lord who doesn't listen to others, so...
Apart from Guo Jia, Ma Dai and Gan Ning and others returned to their tent, did not think as much as Guo Jia. How to say it? After all, they are military generals, so some things are not what they have to think too much. After all, if everyone has the idea of Guo Jia, then what should the strategist do? The generals have become strategists, and strategists can only go home to farm. So they really don’t have much thought, but they also thought that their lord today is different from usual.
But they had no choice but to do this. Speaking of which, even Mr. Fengxiao couldn't persuade his lord, so could he persuade him to stay?
-----------------------------------------------------
As a result, before he started attacking Jiangling again, Ma Chao asked his soldiers to secretly dig tunnels in his camp to try to fight against the enemy. Of course, he finally handed over this matter to Hu Zhen and asked him to lead the troops. As for the others, Ma Chao seemed to have no interest in them. As for Hu Zhen who wanted to show himself, he wanted to do so. As for the other few, whether it was Cui An or Ma Dai or Gan Ning, they obviously had no interest in this matter.
As for Hu Zhen, Ma Chao knew, and he knew that he was not very capable. But how to say that? For a few things, he thought that he could still do it well. And it was in his own camp and his home court. So what else can I worry about? At least Ma Chao knew that no matter what problem was, he could discover and solve it as soon as possible. After all, this was in his own Liangzhou military camp.
So at this moment, Hu Zhen led his troops in a large tent, with his soldiers digging the tunnel leading to Jiangling. Although he thought it was not bad for his lord to give him such a task, this matter was indeed not a big deal.
-----------------------------------------------------
Ma Dai and Ganning still led troops to attack Jiangling, but Hu Zhen could take the opportunity to lead Liangzhou soldiers and Ma Dadi to dig. After all, if it weren't for such a noisy environment, then the enemy might have noticed something. But at this time, due to the situation and the distance between the battlefield, even the soldiers in Huo Jun who were responsible for listening to the monitoring site every day did not find anything.
Of course they didn't find anything, but it was not because the Liangzhou army was secretly doing things, but because of the distance. If it were closer, there would probably be no problem.
Ma Dai and Gan Ning led their troops. Today they still went to the city, but the result was nothing different from before. With Huo Jun and the Han soldiers and the Jingzhou soldiers stubbornly resisting, they had to go on. There was nothing to do with this. If they could support them for a long time, they would naturally not go on like this, but they really couldn't support it.
-----------------------------------------------------
In the end, Ma Chaoming Jin withdrew his troops. He didn't care much today. Compared to this, he actually paid more attention to authentic progress. However, he didn't ask anything, so he could only wait until he withdraws his troops and returns to the camp before talking.
Ma Dai Ganning led his troops to retreat, and Ma Chao took the soldiers back. After arriving at the camp, it was rare that Ma Chao was not going to say anything to them in the big tent, but said directly: "Everyone, come with me today to see how the tunnel was dug!"
"promise!"
No matter who opposes the tunnel, who agrees with it, at least no one disobeys his lord's words. So when Ma Chao said this, everyone followed Ma Chao. Even Guo Jia, an opponent, did not leave and followed his lord directly. In fact, he really wanted to see what expression he would have when his lord finally found that the tunnel had no effect at all. Of course, this was not Guo Jia's evil taste, but he felt that only in this way could his lord do it alone.
If he suffers a loss, it will be even better, but obviously he is not prepared to be effective in less than a day.
-----------------------------------------------------
Ma Chao brought them to a not-so-conspicuous tent. This place was where Hu Zhen and his soldiers dug tunnels. When he saw his lord and everyone came, he quickly said, "Lord. Everyone!"
Ma Chao nodded slightly and said, "What's going on now?"
Hu Zhen said directly: "Go back to the lord. Just count it. Now my subordinates are leading our soldiers and dig up..."
After listening to Hu Zhen's words, Ma Chao nodded with satisfaction, "Okay, General Hu will continue to work hard and strive to complete the construction as soon as possible!" "No!"
Now Ma Chao can only say this, and he really can't say when he might be discovered by Huo Jun. Of course, if he doesn't find out the best, but if he really finds it, then of course it will be bad. If that's the case, he will be in vain.
After that, he said a few words to Hu Zhen, then encouraged the soldiers who were working, and then took everyone away. However, he did not take everyone to follow him, but directly asked them to return to their respective tents, and he also returned to his own central army tent.
-----------------------------------------------------
Everyone and Ma Chao said goodbye and went back, but what they thought was different. Cui An had no idea, and he was still thinking about food and drink at this time. So he was indeed very determined. As for Guo Jia, he was still thinking about authenticity. At this time, it didn't seem that the other party had noticed it. It doesn't mean there will be no one in the future. Yes, of course, he had the same idea as Ma Chao, and he also hoped that authenticity could be achieved. But this matter was not that easy? Po Jiangling leaned on one or a few small authenticity? A joke!
However, he could not say a word, and no one could say it to anyone. So Guo Jia could only keep it in his heart and then went back by himself.
As for Ma Dai and Gan Ning, they didn't think so much about authentic things. Anyway, they did think what Guo Jia said yesterday made sense. But how to say, if authentic can achieve success, it would be good. In this case, Jiangling City, which could not be captured for a long time, will finally be defeated by our own side. But if it fails, then we have to rely on our own to lead our troops to attack. This requires us to continue working hard to break the city as soon as possible.
-----------------------------------------------------
Ma Chao and others went back, only Hu Zhen, who continued to lead troops to dig here in the big tent. He hadn't thought too much, but since his lord told him like this, then 80% of this matter was fine, which was what he thought. But if this was really that simple, it would be better, obviously not that simple.
Jiangling has reached the hour of Hai, but Huo Jun is still patrolling the city, guarding against the Liangzhou army. Even though he does not think that the Liangzhou army will attack at night in the past few days, how to say it, it is definitely not possible to be careful. It is still necessary to prevent problems before they happen.
Just as he was about to go down the city, a Han soldier came towards him. When he saw him, he quickly said, "General, you hear something happening!"
When Huo Jun heard this, he raised his eyebrows and said directly: "Is there any movement?"
"yes!"
"Okay! Lead the way ahead, I'll go and watch!" "No!"
-----------------------------------------------------
For him, this was not a small matter, but rather a big deal, so he immediately asked the soldiers to lead the way and he went to take a look.
As a result, when I heard this, I naturally heard the problem. Huo Jun asked the soldiers: "When did they discover it?"
"Report to the general, it's just now!"
Huo Jun nodded slightly, "Okay! You have made contributions and will not benefit you at that time!"
The soldier smiled and said, "Thank you, General, thank you!"
After Huo Jun reminded the soldiers, he left. For him, although he was a man, he could handle this matter, but he couldn't think of any good way, so he would rather ask for help from the master. There was no problem with defending the city, but this idea was obviously not enough to deal with the Liangzhou army. So after he left, he went directly to the provincial governor's office. He wanted to visit Xu Shu and let the military advisor give him an idea.
-----------------------------------------------------
Huo Jun met Xu Shu very smoothly. Xu Shu was going to rest, but when he saw that Huo Jun had come, he knew that if nothing happened, the other party would never come to him at this time. So he would not be slow at all. After letting the person sit down, Xu Shu smiled and said, "Is Zhong Miao here at night because of the Liangzhou army?"
He didn't say that Xu Shu was asking Huo Jun, but he could hear the firmness in the other party's tone. So Huo Jun didn't hide it, but went straight to the point, "Mr. Yuanzhi, it's not bad, that's exactly what it is! I heard it on the ground before..."
When Xu Shu heard this, he thought that something was wrong, and it was not small! Then he asked again: "So what Zhong Miao means, how can I help?"
In fact, Xu Shu asked this question knowingly, but Huo Jun had to say it in person about asking for help, rather than taking the initiative to say that he wanted to help. Even though he was a member of the Han army, the matter was still different. The so-called rushing is not a business, Xu Shu and Huo Jun are not familiar with each other, and his lord didn't say anything, so he wouldn't be like that.
-----------------------------------------------------
At this time, Huo Jun said again: "Yes, sir, what I mean is, I wonder if sir can come up with a plan to deal with the Liangzhou army like this?"
Xu Shu nodded after hearing this and thought for a while, "Yes, I want me to see, Zhong Miao can..."
Huo Jun listened carefully, afraid that something would be missed. For him, Xu Shu would not go to the city gate to command in person, so he could only tell him what he said here. In fact, this would be good. As for other things, don't force it. Now that the gentleman can come up with ideas, it is indeed good, really.
He kept nodding, thinking that Xu Shu's words made sense. If this was the case, it would be better than his own ideas. And it was more suitable. He didn't think so much about it. After all, he had never encountered this and had a very close experience. But he was a military advisor after all, and he might not have encountered it. But he was a very careful person after all, and he was not able to compare with him.
