Most of the soldiers poisoned by the Gu's army recovered, and the Xikun army also slackened and returned to normal.
The two tigers that met in the forest took a nap at the same time, and were awakened at the same time by a strong wind.
Facing each other's teeth, a new battle is about to start.
In the Gu Jiajun’s large account, the staff were all in full, and Gu Huaijiang asked Gu Shubai to use the sand table to analyze the results of their father and son's discussion last night to everyone.
He sat by himself drinking tea, and looked at ease with Gu Shubai.
The generals in the seat were equally convinced by the major general. He once led the troops independently and made military exploits. Compared with the slightly immature Gu Jiuge two, he was much more stable.
"...According to the spy's report, the poison on Kunwu's injury has been resolved, and the army is being rectified to prepare for the next counterattack. They missed a great opportunity. In order to save his face, Kunwu's injury will definitely be cautious about this counterattack. Be careful."
"The quick victory they need now is to stabilize the military spirit first, and then to attack the city. So my father and I think that he will choose Changchuan or Weizhou to start. The defense of these two cities is not as strong as Zhuguan. Even if it is a temporary attack. No less, at least it won't cost them much."
Lao Jin said immediately: "Didn't the general say that the enemy will use Zhuguan as the main battlefield? Why has it changed again?"
Gu Shubai glanced at Gu Huaijiang. The latter nodded at him. Gu Shubai said: "At this moment and then, the leader of the Xikun Army is no longer Liu Kuang, and Liu Kuang's special complex for Zhuguan is not hurt. What's more, the morale of the enemy is weak, and it is not good for them to attack the main battlefield."
Everyone made sense, "Yes, Kunwu will definitely go to the flank battlefield after being injured."
Gu Jiuge and Gu Hanmo were the defenders of the two cities in this battle, but they didn't know whether Gu Huaijiang would be led by the generals or whether they would send more troops to adjust the layout.
The two looked at Gu Huaijiang almost at the same time. The latter smiled, "Don't worry. You didn't win the battle last time. It's not that you were inferior to your skills. I didn't give orders or send you more troops. You were already Well done."
"This time, you will still be in charge of the two cities separately."
The two couldn't help getting nervous. The last time Changchuan and Weizhou were attacked as flanks, they still couldn't control it. If Xikun's entire army invaded this time, how would they respond with the strength of the two cities
Gu Jiuge said: "Then how much more troops does my father plan to send to us?"
Gu Huaijiang raised his eyelids, "I told you to continue to guard the two cities separately. When did you say that you would send more troops?"
No more troops
Using the meager military strength of these two cities to fight against the army of Xikun is like a man's arm.
Gu Hanmo frowned, "Father, since the poison of Kunwu's injury is cured, then he must know that Yufu is in our army, and it is meaningless to block the road to the Immortal Valley. Will he take the Immortal Valley? The army nearby is transferred back?"
Gu Huaijiang glanced at him deeply, approvingly in his eyes.
Before they spoke, the off-book soldiers came in to report: "General, the fifty thousand army guarded five miles outside the Immortal Valley in Xikun is coming towards us. It is expected that they will arrive at Zhuguan early tomorrow!"
Speaking of Cao Cao's arrival, the fifty thousand army plus the existing forces on the Xikun side should not be underestimated.
Yan Huashi bowed his hands and asked, "General, if we don't send more troops, once the 50,000 troops arrive, the northernmost Weizhou will definitely not be able to defend!"
The military strength of Weizhou is only 30,000, and the gap is too great.
Gu Huaijiang did not speak, but shook his head, "Even though the poison of the longevity dispersal is eliminated, the army has lost tens of thousands of troops. We have no extra troops to send to Weizhou, we can only maintain the original plan."
As a result, the burden on Gu Jiuge's shoulders has become much heavier.
Everyone was uneasy, but Gu Huaijiang's decision had been made, and he would not change it.
Yan Huashi simply said: "The final general, please go to Weizhou to defend the city! The second son is young, no matter how wise and martial, he can't fight such a difficult battle!"
He didn't even think that he could win the battle by leading the troops. With such a huge disparity in military strength, Daluo would not be able to win the battle even if he went to the fairy tale.
Across a screen, Yufu sits behind the screen to avoid poisonous weeds, and the fragrance of medicine spreads throughout the big tent.
This medicine is not for drinking, it is for smelling.
When Yufu was in the Immortal Valley, the smoked pond would often let her smell the scent of the boiled anti-poisonous weeds. As time passed, the body's reaction to the poison would be lessened.
The poison-preventing weeds are too rare and precious, and there are only five Yufu plants. For hundreds of thousands of troops, it is almost nothing. They had to be boiled in a big tent to try to keep the chief commander of these troops.
Kunwu had one or two poisonous tactics for injury, she used all the methods she could think of, and only hoped that this battle could be won safely.
Hearing the sound of dispute in the account, Yu's hand giving the stove fan suddenly stopped, listening to the movement outside the screen.
There are many people in the big account, and it is normal to have disputes with different understandings of the situation. What is abnormal is that this time it was Yan Huashi who spoke. He has always been gentle and silent, and rarely expresses his opinions strongly.
Yufu looked at the door of the tent, a black figure in the shape of a human was pressed on top, Yan Zheng must have heard his father's words.
Lao Jin yanked Yan Huashi hard and motioned him to look at Gu Huaijiang's face. Gu Huaijiang didn't say anything, but said: "Wine Song, Han Mo, let's go first, and you will go back to Weizhou and Changchuan. The enemy’s offensive may happen at any time, and the two cities cannot have no masters."
Gu Jiuge and Gu Hanmo didn't plan to let them take risks for them. Their father refused to increase their troops. There must be a reason for them.
In this army, he is not only the father but also the chief general, they have no choice but to follow the orders as the generals.
Yufu heard that the two were about to leave, and immediately ran out from behind the screen, "Second brother and third brother, I will help you pack your luggage."
Yaolan didn't know where she went, she herself fanned the stove behind the screen, rubbing a cloud of dust on the tip of her nose and she didn't know.
Gu Jiuge subconsciously wiped her out with his fingers. Gu Shubai, who was standing in front of the sand table explaining the scene, raised his eyebrows and said nothing.
The three of them stepped out of the big tent, and Yufu handed the fan in his hand to Yan Zheng outside the door. "Don't go out the medicine stove behind the screen. Go and help me fan the fire for a while. I'll be back soon!"
Yan Zheng was anxious to go in and listen to them. He was sore on his neck outside the tent, "Okay, leave it to me!"
He got into the big tent like a big rabbit. Before everyone knew it, he raised the fan in his hand and swaggered to sit behind the screen.
It was as if what he was holding was not a fan for the stove, but a Shangfang sword bestowed by him.
Yan Hua really didn't want to drive him out. Everyone got back to the subject, and Gu Huaijiang said, "You haven't finished talking about Bai's talents, so keep talking."
Gu Shubai nodded and said to Yan Huashi: "Don't worry, everyone, there will be nothing wrong with Weizhou and Changchuan. The main battlefield of Kunwu injury will still be at Zhuguan."
Why are you not at Zhuguan for a while, and at Zhuguan for a while
Rao is the generals who have been with Gu Huaijiang for a long time, and they couldn't realize what Gu Shubai meant for a while.
He slowly explained: "Kunwu needs a quick victory because of the injury. Attacking the weak defensive cities on both wings is his best choice. He will think so, and we can naturally think of it, so we should send troops to strengthen Changchuan and Weizhou. .So-"
"Couldn't Kunwu be injured, would we increase the number of troops in Changchuan and Weizhou?"
Hearing this, everyone understood, "Understood, do the opposite! Kunwu thought that we would increase troops in Changchuan and Weizhou, and the strength of Zhuguan would naturally decrease. Why should he attack after the increase in troops? The two wings of the mankind? You should directly fight Zhuguan, whose troops have been reduced!"
"No wonder the general said that he didn't need to send troops to the two wings and let the second son and the third son take risks. It turns out..."
Yan Hua really couldn't go on.
He could imagine that Gu Jiuge and Gu Hanmo must now regard death as home and rush to the two wings, and then sleeplessly thinking about countermeasures against the enemy.
In the end they will find that their own efforts are useless at all, and the enemy will not go to them at all...
This time, how could it be a tragic word!
Gu Shubai looked at the expressions of the people, they were mad at Gu Huaijiang's deceitful behavior, and they secretly loved Gu Jiuge and Gu Jiuge.
He coughed lightly, "You don't have to worry about your second and third brothers. Actually, in the first year when I was on the battlefield with my father, my father also tempered me in this way."
The advantage of this kind of training is that he learns to analyze and think on his own, instead of following his father's orders everywhere without knowing why he wants to do so.
The latter trains the generals who can command and defend the enemy, and the former trains the generals who can command thousands of soldiers.
Gu Jiuge and Gu Hanmo may not understand what their father did now, but they will soon realize the benefits of this kind of training on the battlefield in the future.
Gu Shubai's words reminded everyone that Lao Jin chuckled, "I remember! The major general was only seventeen years old when he first came to the battlefield, and yet—"
Gu Shubai smiled and glanced at him lightly.
Who wants to turn out the dark history of himself or the hairy boy, and let everyone listen to it as a joke
Lao Jin's smiling face immediately calmed down, and he lowered his head to pretend that he hadn't said anything.
He secretly slandered in his heart that the children taught by the general were just like the general, who looked gentle like scholars, and they could hold people down by just looking at them with a smile.
Gu Shubai is like this, even the little Yufu is like this.
He heard from Yan Hua that this is the difference between a Confucian general and a killer.
Gu Shubai retracted his gaze with satisfaction. As a major general of the Gu family army, he still has this momentum. "Then let's continue to say that Zhuguan will once again be the main battlefield, how should we line up our troops."
…
Yufu followed Gu Jiuge and Gu Hanmo back to their account, saying that she was helping them pack their luggage, but she didn't need her at all.
The luggage of the two of them has hardly moved, what they were like when they came from the imperial capital, and what they are now, it is convenient to move positions at any time.
Yufu took a look and found that the total was one person, one box, and she waved her hand in embarrassment and asked the soldiers behind to take out the items she had prepared for them.
one two Three…
There are a total of four packages, each of which is bulging and looks like a lot of stuff.
Yufu picked them up one by one, "This is a medicinal herb. I dare not say that it is a panacea for detoxification. In times of crisis, taking it with water can delay the onset of the poison and support me."
She stuffed the package with medicinal herbs in her arms alone, and Gu Jiuge accepted it with a smile, but Gu Hanmo, who had never talked much, frowned.
"Yufu, can't you just boil the herbal medicine into a small pill like in the play? If we are chased by the enemy and run into the wilderness, there is no way to make fire and boil the medicine."
Yu Fu was stunned.
Yeah, why didn't she think of it long ago
It must have been after arriving at Zhuguan day and night, and had been so busy, forgetting this easier way.
Now that it was too late to refine the pill, Yufu glanced at him angeredly, "When there is really no way to decoct the medicine, he chewed it up and swallowed it. And..."
She smiled teasingly, "Isn't the third brother the most annoying listening to drama?"
This time it was Gu Hanmo's turn to be embarrassed. It was true that Yuguan did not do it properly, and Yufu often used it to tease him.
She picked up two more baggages, still one for each person, "Here are dim sum and jerky, which were delivered by the people who brought grain from the imperial capital."
Gu Jiuge opened it a bit and saw that the dim sum in it were all the patterns of the imperial dining room, and it was not for the lieutenant generals.
"Your majesty sent this to you? I heard from the soldiers in the army saying that your majesty has given you a lot of princess rituals for you, for fear that you will be wronged at the border. You should keep these for yourself, we will not Picky eaters."
"No matter what, I have to give it to you!"
It was a rare time for Yufu to be willful, and to distribute everything she prepared for the two of them, and he felt a little comforted.
The two suddenly understood that Yufu had just heard them analyze the situation of the two armies in the account. She was worried that the two of them were in danger and knew that Gu Huaijiang's military order could not be changed, so she expressed her concern in this way.
She was still an underwhelmed little girl. It was really embarrassing for her. Gu Jiuge looked at the top of her head and couldn't help but smile slightly.
