Chapter 300 Decoy
"Mr. Guo?!" Hearing the soldiers' report, Zhao Yun couldn't help but frown: "Which Mr. Guo?"
Before the soldiers could answer, a familiar voice came from outside the hall: "Who else can Mr. Guo? Of course I am Guo!" Then, Guo Jia, holding a feather fan, walked into the lobby leisurely.
Seeing Guo Jia go back, Zhao Yun was overjoyed. He knew very well that Han Zhan valued Guo Jia because of his extraordinary strategy. If Guo Jia is here, it would be much easier to deal with Li Jue and Guo Si.
After Guo Jia sat down, he said to the two of them, "Jia was on the way. I heard that you were worried about Li and Guo, so I ordered Zhang Liao and his subordinates to lead the people to continue traveling north. Jia came back and wished you a lot of help."
Hearing Guo Jia say this, Zhao Yun and Xu Shu looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes. Zhao Yun quickly stood up and bowed to Guo Jia, saying, "If you can get help from your husband, then Li and Guo will die without a place to bury you."
Guo Jia shook the feather fan in his hand and said slowly: "Li and Guo are all cavalry under their command, coming and going like flying; while our army is basically infantry. Even if they defeat them, as long as they escape, they will not be able to catch up."
"Mr. Fengxiao said very well." As soon as Guo Jia finished speaking, Zhao Yun echoed: "If they were all infantrymen, we would have left the armor we killed long ago."
"When Li and Guo fought, there were countless villages outside the city. They could plunder food and grass from those places to replenish soldiers." Guo Jia said lightly: "Now the village is empty. It is basically impossible for the two to collect food and grass and replenish soldiers."
"Mr. Fengxiao," Xu Shu added: "Li Guo and his two men suffered a great loss in the ambush of our army, so it is probably not easy to deal with them with the ambush."
"Even if we want to set up an ambush in the west of the city, there is no suitable place." Guo Jia smiled and said to Xu Shu: "We can change the ambush to other directions."
"Other direction?" Zhao Yun asked curiously: "Mr. Fengxiao, I wonder which direction it is?"
Guo Jia saw a hand-painted map on the table in front of Zhao Yun, so he got up and walked over, pointed to the east of the city and said, "Li and Guo are waiting for the opportunity. When we take all the people out of Chang'an, he will lead the troops to chase after them. Because our soldiers want to protect the people, they naturally cannot fight with them with all their might. They may be defeated."
Zhao Yun and Xu Shu both agreed with Guo Jia's statement. Once all the people left Chang'an, Chang'an would be an empty city, and Li Jue and Guo Si's soldiers could enter and exit freely. If they followed and pursued, the soldiers responsible for protecting the people would definitely not be able to fight with all their strength. Even if Zhao Yun personally supervised the battle, there would still be a possibility of defeating the war.
"There must be spies from Li and Guo in the city. We can make a noise, saying that because of the lack of military rations, the last two groups of people may have to stay in Chang'an for the time being and wait for the food and grass to come out from Yecheng." Guo Jia said to the two: "As long as Li and Guo know this news, they will lead their troops to cut off the food route we are waiting for. At that time, we will set up ambush in the east of the city, and catch them off guard."
"Mr. Fengxiao's plan is very good." After hearing Guo Jia's words, Xu Shu couldn't help but nodded repeatedly and said, "The villages outside the city are no longer crowded. Even if Li and Guo want to collect food and grass and replenish soldiers, they have no choice. If they know that we have a large amount of food and grass to transport to Chang'an, they will definitely send people to rob the grain, and we can kill them on the road without leaving any armor."
After the plan was decided, Zhao Yun, Xu Shu and others made a noise in the city, saying that because of insufficient food and grass, in order to prevent the people from starving during the migration, they decided to temporarily leave Chang'an and wait until the food and grass from Yecheng was delivered before leaving. After learning the news, the spy hidden in the crowd scrambled out of the city overnight to report the matter to Li and Guo.
Although Li and Guo fought hard to distinguish, they are now working together. Guo Si is still like before, only Li Juema is watching. When he heard the spy's report, he carefully said to Li Jue: "Zhiran, there is no people outside Chang'an City, and it is difficult to replenish food and grass. The required food and grass have to be transported from Xiliang. Now our military rations are only enough for two days. If we don't find a way, the army may be out of food. Once the food is out of stock, the morale of the army will be unstable."
Li Jue agreed with Guo Si's statement in his heart, but the villages outside the city had been looted when they were fighting each other, and now they were not even crowded. He went there to replenish food and grass. He looked at Guo Si and asked, "What good advice does Aduo have?"
"The spy is not a reward. Do you say that the Jizhou soldiers in the city will wait until the food and grass in Yecheng arrive before leaving?" Guo Si said to Li Jue: "We can make a decision on this batch of food and grass in Yecheng."
However, after hearing this, Li Jue shook his head and said, "The food and grass from Jizhou usually enter the city from the east gate. If we want to rob the food, the journey is too far. Moreover, there are about two or three thousand soldiers carrying the food and grass every time. If we can't eat them for a while, the reinforcements in Chang'an City will arrive."
"Zhiran, if we don't rob the grain, once the food and grass in the army are gone, the troops may disperse at that time." Seeing that Li Jue rejected his proposal, Guo Si specifically reminded him: "We have no soldiers and horses in our hands, and then we can only surrender."
Li Jue is a greedy person who is afraid of death. When Dong Zhuo was eliminated by Wang Yun and others, he apologized to Wang Yun, hoping that the other party would forgive his sins. After being rejected, he immediately raised an army to invade Chang'an, successfully defeated Lu Bu, eliminated Wang Yun and others, and controlled the government in his hands. Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. Because he was defeated by Yang Biao, Zhu Yan and others, he and Guo Si fought each other, and Han Zhan got a big advantage.
In order to prevent repeating the same mistake, he decided to take the risk: "Well, since Aduo said that, we will send more people to the east of the city to reconnaise. Once the grain team from Jizhou appears, we will bypass Chang'an and seize the food and grass."
According to the idea of Zhao Yun and Xu Shu, they planned to prepare a fake grain transport team to attract Li and Guo to take the bait. However, their proposal was opposed by Guo Jia: "No, we don't know how many spies Li and Guo have nearby. Once they are found outside the city, it will no longer be easy to fool them in the future."
When Zhao Yun heard Guo Jia say this, he couldn't help but feel a slap in his heart, and then asked tentatively: "Mr. Fengxiao, do you mean to use the real grain team to attract Li and Guo and the others to the bait?"
"That's right, it's true." Guo Jia thought for a while and continued, "Yi Jia estimated that there should be another grain team from Yecheng in the past two days. He is about to enter Chang'an, but I don't know who is escorting the car?"
Zhao Yun immediately expressed his opinion: "This is simple. As long as Zhao sends someone to inquire, he will soon know who was escorting the food and grass. Then we will set traps for Li and Guo."
After the meeting, Zhao Yun immediately sent people to follow the official road to find the grain transport convoy coming to Chang'an. Zhao Yun's envoy rushed on the road for two days and finally met the grain transport convoy coming from Yecheng.
"Mr. Guo?!" Hearing the soldiers' report, Zhao Yun couldn't help but frown: "Which Mr. Guo?"
Before the soldiers could answer, a familiar voice came from outside the hall: "Who else can Mr. Guo? Of course I am Guo!" Then, Guo Jia, holding a feather fan, walked into the lobby leisurely.
