The Three Kingdoms began with self-reliance as king

Chapter 174

There is a cow on two acres of land, and the wife and children are on the kang.

This is the happy life each of them pursues.

I don't want to be rich, I just want to live a safe and stable life.

They don't pursue high goals, and eating, drinking, and clothing are one of the great joys in life!
However, the imperial court did not give them this opportunity.

Right now their demand is falling even more, as long as they fill their stomachs.

Zhang Yan's words hit people's hearts directly, which is why the generals cheered so happily.

Seeing that the generals were so happy, Zhang Yan was also overjoyed, and hurriedly called for his personal guards, and ordered:

"Let's set up a small banquet, I would like to have a few drinks with the generals."

Hearing this, Zheng Yi didn't care about spoiling the fun, and immediately dissuaded him:
"No, general! A small banquet is fine, but a few drinks are hard to enjoy, and drinking too much may cause trouble.

Why don't I drink to my heart's content after defeating Huangfusong, until I get drunk. "

See Zheng Yi stop it.

Some generals were displeased with his meddling.

The Han army can't even take care of themselves now, how can they delay things by having a few drinks?
However, Zheng Yi's status in the Black Mountain Army was such that they couldn't say much.

Some generals felt that Zheng Yi's words were not unreasonable, and they all echoed:

"What Yunfei said is true, after Huangfusong is wiped out, I won't be too late to have a good time."

"It's really hard to enjoy a few cups, if you don't write it down for now, we won't get drunk after the first battle..."

Zhang Yan is in a good mood today.

It was rare to listen to Jin Zheng Yi's persuasion, and changed his words with a smile:
"What Yunfei said is not unreasonable, how can you not drink to your heart's content!
Let's use tea instead of wine for the time being. After we defeat Huangfusong, we will gather again to drink freely and talk happily.

All of you have enough food and drink, you will have to use your strength to fight the enemy in the future, and kill the enemy with all your strength. "

"Here!"

In the meeting hall, all the generals responded loudly.

If the Han army really had problems with food and grass, the morale of the army would be unstable after three days, and they were confident that they would be defeated in one fell swoop.

It is also a good choice to drink fine wine that cannot be drunk today, accompanied by a big victory three days later.

……

In the camp of the Han army and in Huangfu Song's tent.

The main generals gathered together to discuss matters.

Hong Bo said to Huangfusong with a smile on his face:

"The general's plan is brilliant!
Zhang Yan has grown arrogant after winning many times.

According to the report from the scouts, Zhang Yan has provided extra meals for the soldiers, so that the soldiers can eat and drink enough.

The entire Montenegrin army seemed to be sure of winning, and they looked down on us.

It must be that after finding out that our soldiers went into the mountains to hunt and fish with nets in turn, they thought that our army was short of food and grass, and victory was just around the corner. "

Huangfu Song smiled slightly and said:

"For a group of dying people, it doesn't matter if they have a good meal.

Zhang Yan and his army did not take it seriously at all. "

His expression was slightly dignified, and he said worriedly:
According to the latest news from the scouts, [-] Ma Yuanyi soldiers and horses were found [-] miles to the northeast.

I'm afraid that the two of them will join forces, and we will be under the enemy's back and belly, and the situation will be very unfavorable. "

Hong Bo laughed and said:

"The General is right to be concerned.

However, it was rumored that the relationship between Zhang Yan and Ma Yuanyi was not only bad, but very stiff.

Both sides wanted to integrate the forces of bandits, large and small, in Taihang Mountain, and they often competed secretly.

This time Ma Yuanyi only sent [-] soldiers and horses, and they were stationed [-] miles away.

With us and Zhang Yan's army, it is a tripartite confrontation.

It can be seen that Ma Yuanyi did not really want to reinforce.

We even wish to use our hands to annihilate Zhang Yan and clear away the stumbling block for him to integrate the Black Mountain Army.

The reason why they sent [-] troops here was because the general thought that they wanted to sit on the hills and watch the tigers fight rather than their lips dying.

When our two armies compete with each other, they will reap the benefits.

It's just that they sent three thousand soldiers and horses, and they underestimated us too! "

Everyone nodded after hearing the words, secretly thinking that Hong Bo's analysis made sense.

They have [-] troops and Zhang Yan has more than [-] troops.

Liu Yi sent [-] troops, which seemed to be unable to play a decisive role in the overall battle situation.

The only thing to consider is whether these 3000 troops will stab in the back when their two armies are at war.

But thinking about it, it shouldn't be a big problem, as long as you keep an eye on it, nothing will go wrong.

Huangfusong also gave Hong Bo a rare look of admiration.

This kid finally got the hang of it!

Huang Fusong also felt a little puzzled that Liu Yi only sent [-] soldiers and horses.

He didn't underestimate the three thousand soldiers sent by Liu Yi.

It's just that in the previous few battles, the loss of Liu Yi's soldiers and horses was almost negligible.

The force is still around 5.

In contrast, Liu Yi sent three thousand soldiers and horses here, which really made him a little confused.

Whether it is planning a frontal attack or has other plans.

Facing his [-] army, [-] soldiers and horses are far less deterrent than [-] or [-] soldiers and horses.

Maybe he really didn't want to reinforce Zhang Yan, but wanted to use his hands to annihilate Zhang Yan?

Otherwise, Liu Yi directly led the army to attack them with Zhang Yan.

Zhang Kuang's army couldn't stop them at all, and they had no choice but to withdraw their troops temporarily to avoid the attack.

What do the three thousand soldiers want to do?
To deter them?

Or to take advantage of the opportunity?How to make a profit?
Or do you have other plans?

Can't figure it out.

Huangfusong was really puzzled.

After leading the army for many years, Liu Yi was the first young man who made him unpredictable.

But no matter what, he, who had stumbled in Liu Yi's hands many times, did not despise Liu Yi.

The three thousand troops stationed thirty miles away made him feel very uncomfortable.

Like sitting on pins and needles, like a thorn in the back, like a thorn in the throat.

3000 people may not seem like many, but it seems like a ticking time bomb to him.

It will often detonate when he is negligent, and if he does not pay attention, he must pay a heavy price.

He had to guard against this.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly reminded everyone:

"Everyone, don't underestimate the enemy!
Ma Yuanyi is very scheming and deep in the city. You must have already learned that he is good at hiding people behind his back.

We don't know the ultimate purpose of the opponent right now, so we must always be vigilant and not give them an opportunity. "

Hong Bo has been listening carefully. Hearing this, he pondered for a moment, and then said:

"What the general said was true.

You can send an army to station in the northeast corner to guard against death, block their support routes, and prevent them from taking the opportunity to sneak attack, so you can be safe.

After I have dealt with Zhang Yan, I will go north to attack, and finally join forces with General Zhang to conquer Yixing City. "

Huangfu Song secretly nodded when he heard the words, and then asked after Hong Bo's words:
"Who wants to go?"

The generals looked at each other when they heard the words.

Lead the army to station in the northeast corner to block the support route of Liu Yi's troops and prevent them from sneaking.

No matter how you look at it, it is thankless.

If the other party, with the intention of killing people with a borrowed knife, only puts pressure on Zhang Yan and does not reinforce Zhang Yan, they will not get much military merit by just defending.

If the opponent is scheming and launches a surprise attack, even if they repel the opponent's 3000 troops, they will not get much credit.

And once there is a loss, they can hardly escape the blame, and the contribution is completely out of proportion to the income.

Huangfu Song's strategy has been initially completed.

Following him, facing Zhang Yan's [-] army, they could gain military merit with their eyes closed.

It is definitely more military merit than leading the army to guard against the three thousand soldiers sent by Liu Yi.
