In two days, Zhang Xiu handled all the affairs of Wen County properly.
Army, advance again.
This time, we are going to Huai county. Only by winning huaixian county can we really win Hanoi county. On Zhang Xiu's way into the army, he gets the news from the royal guards that Yuan Shao's army arrived in huaixian County, and he took control of huaixian county without any blood.
Zhang Xiu was not surprised.
Zhang Xiu wanted to attack Hanoi, so did Yuan Shao.
Yuan Shao was absolutely willing to seize Hanoi without a single soldier.
According to the news from the royal guards, Zhang Xiu also knows that the army of Yuan Shao, who entered Hanoi County, was led by Zhang Ya, and had Tian Feng and Wen Chou. For such an army, Zhang Xiu has no slightest contempt.
Xu you is different from Tian Feng.
Xu you was greedy and selfish, and easy to use. But Tian Feng was different. He was upright and devoted to planning for Yuan Shao. Such people are also very discerning and talented, which is very difficult to deal with.
Jaw opening is not easy.
Zhang Yan is also a wise general, not a brave man. Although Yan Liang's martial arts are better than Zhang's, he is not qualified to carry shoes in front of Zhang's.
In the real battle field, Yan Liang was absolutely abused by Zhang Yan and couldn't find the north.
Yuan Shao sent Zhang Ya, Tian Feng and Wen Chou, and the lineup was very strong.
Therefore, Zhang Xiu is also careful to deal with.
The army was on its way to Huai county. Along the way, Zhang Xiu sent sentries to investigate the situation along the way carefully to avoid being ambushed.
But all the way smooth, did not encounter ambush, and the place was invincible.
There is no resistance, only surrender.
When the army led by Zhang Xiu was thirty miles away from huaixian County, it stopped for a rest at noon.
Together with Sima Yi, Yang Xiu and Pang Tong, Zhang Xiu is studying the situation of Huai county.
Zhang Xiu said slowly: "according to the news sent back by the royal guards, Zhang Ya's 30000 troops are stationed in Huai County, and have never sent troops. It can be seen from this that Zhang Yan is very likely to adopt the garrison strategy and let us attack Huai county to consume our troops. "
Yang xiudao: "Lord, Zhang Ya has only 30000 elite soldiers. On our side, there are more than 20000 fierce tigers and more than 20000 flying bears, plus the rest of the conventional forces, the total number has already exceeded 50000."
"We are far ahead of each other."
"But even so, if we attack huaixian, it's not good for us."
"Although Zhang Ya first occupied Huai County, he didn't control the whole Hanoi, especially the others who came from a long journey. If we send a surprise force to cut off its retreat, or send an army to harass the rear and destroy its food and grass supplies, we will have an advantage. "
Yang Xiu gave suggestions.
Zhang Xiu nodded, but did not express his opinion.
Yang Xiu's analysis seems feasible, but it may not be.
The reason is simple. With Zhang Ya and Tian Feng's sophistication, they will certainly pay attention to the grain road, so cutting off the grain road is not easy to succeed. The most important thing is that huaixian county is the base of publicity, which was taken down by Zhang Yan suddenly. In half a year to a year, Zhang Yan did not worry about food and grass.
Under such a premise, it is quite difficult to win by cutting off its grain supply.
Pang Tong said: "in my opinion, it's better to make use of publicity."
Zhang xiudao: "how to say?"
Pang Tong explained: "according to the information sent back by the royal guards, Zhang Yang sent Xue Tao to Yecheng for help, but as soon as Zhang Ya's army arrived, Xue Tao said that Zhang Yang had surrendered to Yuan Shao."
"Zhang jaw came to huaixian county to be incorporated."
"Under the circumstances at that time, Zhang Yang could not resist at all, and finally had no choice but to surrender."
"Today's publicity is imprisoned."
"Although Zhang Yang was imprisoned in the prefecture, after all, he has served as Hanoi Prefecture for many years and has considerable strength. If we can make use of publicity, incite civil strife, or give us convenience, we can win this war. "
Pang Tong put forward his views.
Both Yang Xiu and Pang Tong expressed their opinions.
After hearing this, Zhang Xiu still did not express her opinion.
Pang Tong's strategy is also difficult to implement, because Zhang Yang is imprisoned by Zhang Yan. It's not easy to contact Zhang Yang, and it's not easy to let Zhang Yang do it.
The feasibility is not high.
"Newspaper!"
At this time, soldiers came. The soldier came to Zhang Xiu's side and reported: "general, there is a man who calls himself Zhang Chong and comes to see him on the order of Hanoi prefect Zhang Yang."
"Bring it here!"
Zhang Xiu eyebrows pick, heart suddenly rose hope.
Maybe it's an opportunity.
There is no breakthrough in the current situation, but what Zhang Xiu needs is an opportunity.
The soldiers went to send orders. Soon, Zhang Chong came to Zhang Xiu. When Zhang Chong saw Zhang Xiu, there was a sense of consternation on his face, because Zhang Xiu was too young and his beard was not even long.
However, Zhang Xiu looks handsome, a pair of sharp eyes, deep eyes, as if to see through the heart, let Zhang Chong heart a Lin.Zhang Chong took a deep breath and said, "little Zhang Chong, meet general Zhang."
Zhang Xiu said slowly: "I heard that Zhang Yang was imprisoned and could not arrange things on his own. You've been ordered to come. What's the matter. What's more, how did you leave the prefecture and huaixian county? "
The fierce Zhang Chong secretly embroiders a way.
Unexpectedly know the situation in huaixian City, and a word said the key.
Zhang Chong replied, "report back to General Zhang, although the prefect's residence is surrounded by groups and is not allowed to enter or leave, the prefect's residence has its own secret way to get out of the city. General Zhang, please read the letter to find out the details. "
With that, Zhang Chong took out the letter.
The soldier took it and handed it to Zhang Xiu. After Zhang Xiu opened the letter and read it again, her eyebrows rose and she fell into meditation.
A moment later, Zhang Xiu said: "you wait for a moment. I will think about it and write back."
"Here it is
Zhang Chong answered directly.
Zhang Xiu waved her hand, and a soldier took Zhang Chong to one side.
After Yang Xiu and Sima Yi finished reading the letter, Zhang Xiu said, "Zhang Yang is going to ask for help through the letter and is ready to cooperate with us inside and outside. What do you think of it? "
Pang Tong took the lead in saying: "Lord, if this is true, it will be a chance for us to break the city. But what if you enter the city and you are ambushed? "
"Of course, everyone knows that Xue Tao is publicly resented."
"It should be true."
"The question is, is Zhang Yang the only one who knows the secret of Zhang Yang's mansion? In case Zhang Yan knows about the secret road through other means. "
"Once our army enters through the secret Road, it will become a turtle in a jar."
Pang Tong's eyes twinkled with wisdom and said: "it's hard to judge the current situation for a moment. But if you let it go, it's a waste of opportunity. If troops are sent in, they may be ambushed. "
The most difficult thing is to make a decision.
In a moment, it is possible to decide the victory or defeat of this war, and also the life and death of countless soldiers.
No one can make a decision easily.
After thinking about it, Yang Xiusi also found it difficult. I didn't know the situation before, and there was no way to attack huaixian county. But now that I know the situation, I feel embarrassed.
Yang Xiushen took a breath and said, "I agree with Pang Shangshu's analysis, but it's hard to make a decision."
Zhang Xiu is weighing things in her heart.
His eyes turned and fell on Sima Yi. Because Sima Yi opened her mouth just now, and she looked like she wanted to stop talking.
Zhang Xiu knew Sima Yi had something to say and asked, "Zhongda, how do you think about it?"
Sima Yi looked modest and said, "Pang Shangshu and Yang Changshi are right in their consideration. Both of them are intelligent and reasonable. In fact, I think that the reason why it is difficult to make a decision is to have a preconceived judgment and consider whether to advance or not. But for us, with the secret message, we have another choice. "
