Chapter 711: Jia Xu VS Zhuge Liang

While Ouyang Shuo was talking with the siege lion, Zheng He walked in suddenly.

"Your Majesty, Lord of the Siege Lion!"

After seeing the salute, Zheng He came to Ouyang Shuo's side, bowed his head, and whispered, "Your Majesty, just after interrogating the prisoners of war, we got information that Huang Gai's army should have arrived at Chibi three days ago. It was suggested by the lord of the siege lion." , Joining Liu Bei's army, it was only a few days of delay."

Zheng He did not continue with the following words.

Obviously, the few days that the siege lion has delayed is very critical to the battle situation.

Ouyang Shuo glanced at the siege lion on the opposite side and nodded.

Zheng He was interested, so he withdrew.

The siege lion may also realize that what he did may have been found out.

Ouyang Shuo smiled and said, "Don't say too much, you've done me a big favor, and I'll give you a fortune too. The Huang Gai army and Guan Yu army that were captured this time will be handed over to you to take back. You can take this Zhishui Division returned to Dongting Lake and continued to seize Wuling County."

"Ah? Thank you, brother!" The siege lion was a little excited.

In the campaign map, the lord can capture the aboriginal army of the opposing camp. But it is very difficult to control them. After all, time is limited and people's hearts are uncertain.

Even if these surrendered troops could go to the battlefield, Ouyang Shuo would not dare to use them. In case they suddenly turned against each other on the battlefield, the fun would be great.

On the contrary, the lords belonging to the same faction are much easier to control. Therefore, handing over this descending army to the siege lion is tantamount to handing over a ready-made strong army to the siege lion.

In addition, there is another point, that is, the campaign side missions.

In Sun Liu's camp, Zhou Yu, Huang Gai, and Liu Bei's three-way army all have a large-scale side mission. The branch mission of Huang Gai's army was to capture Wuling County.

Therefore, if the siege lion can complete the unfinished tasks of Huang Gai, not only can he harvest a large amount of battle contribution points in the process of capturing Wuling County, but he can also obtain generous task rewards.

So, how could the siege lion not be excited. In this war, the siege lion was a blessing in disguise. He is very fortunate now, fortunate that he made a correct choice back then.

"In addition to the army, I will also allocate some of the battleships left behind by Xiongba, Zhanlang and others. Including the artillery on the battleships, you can use them all." Ouyang Shuo added with a smile.

"Thank you brother!"

The siege lion didn't know what to say anymore.

Ouyang Shuo stood up with a smile, and patted the shoulder of the siege lion, "Thank you, we are allies!"

"En!" The Siege Lion nodded vigorously, feeling a lot.

"Go, prepare to leave immediately. Remember, you must enter Wuling County before Liu Bei's army passes through Dongting Lake. Don't meet them on the road, it will be embarrassing." Ouyang Shuo reminded.

"Don't worry, brother, I have a measure."

"That's good!" Ouyang Shuo also believed that the Siege Lions would handle it well.

Before the siege lion left, he hesitated to speak. When he reached the door, he couldn't help but turned his head and said, "Brother, Xunlong was just confused for a while, and he has no other thoughts."

Ouyang Shuo's eyes were fixed, it seems that the Siege Lion and Xunlong have a deep friendship.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of it." Ouyang Shuo smiled slightly.

"it is good!"

The siege lion smiled a little reluctantly, sighed in his heart, turned and left.

Looking at the back of the siege lion, Ouyang Shuo also sighed with complicated eyes. Through some means, Ouyang Shuo finally calmed down the siege lion temporarily.

"Looking for a dragon? Don't let me down!" Ouyang Shuo's eyes flashed brightly.

Nuo Da's reception room was instantly filled with killing intent.

*************

That afternoon, the siege lion led his troops to leave.

Along with the army, there is also a warship carrying Guan Yu's head.

The lord players in Huang Gai's camp, except for the siege lion, the other two were killed long ago, and they completely withdrew from the battle. Therefore, the details about the siege lion in Chibi are unknown.

To bid farewell to the siege lion, Ouyang Shuo summoned Zheng He and Jia Xu again to discuss matters in the war room. After defeating Huang Gai's army, the next step is to consider how to deal with Liu Bei's army.

Liu Bei's headquarters has about 20,000 troops, and with the addition of 50,000 alien legions, the total strength reaches 70,000. Zhuge Liang also conspired in the group, how could Ouyang Shuo really despise him.

In addition, the strategic intention of occupying Chibi must be arranged one by one. In view of this, Zhao Sihu, the commander of the First Division of the City Guard Corps, was able to participate in the military meeting.

In the war room.

As usual, it was Zheng He who first reported the military situation: "My lord, the final general has already found out that the transfer station of the grain and grass materials transported to Yunmeng Daze is located in Wulin, and it is currently under the control of our army."

"Good!" Ouyang Shuo was very satisfied with Zheng He's efficiency.

"In the Wulin granary, a large amount of grain and grass materials were seized. At the same time, according to the information obtained from the interrogation of the grain and grass officer, just three days ago, another batch of grain and grass was urgently transported to Yunmeng Daze." Zheng He continued, " What is unusual is that they sent a batch of food and grass five days ago."

"According to the normal arrangement, the grain and grass should be delivered every five days. That is to say, the latest batch of grain and grass was urgently requested by the frontline army." Zheng He added.

"Sir, what do you think?" Ouyang Shuo asked Jia Xu.

Jia Xu obviously knew about it, and said, "If my predictions are correct, Jiangling is about to experience a major war. That's why the front-line army requested an emergency requisition of food and grass to prepare for emergencies."

"Sir, do you think Zhou Yu can break through Jiangling City?" Ouyang Shuo asked.

"It's hard to say!" Jia Xu frowned.

As mentioned earlier, this battle is entirely dominated by the Alien Legion. Jia Xu had no idea what Dichen and the others would do.

After all, no matter how powerful a strategist is, it is useless if he does not understand the enemy.

"However, judging from the current situation, Zhou Yu's army may have some trump cards. Otherwise, they would not ask for an emergency requisition of food and grass, and they would take the initiative to attack Jiangling with full confidence." Jia Xu said his judgment.

The Zhou Yu that Jia Xu knew was by no means a reckless person.

Sometimes, the counselor's overall view is very important. Jia Xu was like this. From some clues, he vaguely felt that the Jiangling War might cause some disturbances.

In fact, Ouyang Shuo also vaguely felt a little uneasy. Through the thousands of miles of clouds, Ouyang Shuo felt in the dark that a huge cloud of blood energy was gathering above Jiangling City.

Boundless murderous aura filled it.

This is by no means a good omen, Jiangling City is afraid that its bones will be destroyed.

"The battle of Jiangling is beyond our reach, and we can't take care of it for the time being." Ouyang Shuo collected his emotions and continued, "What we can do is to cut off the food supplies of Zhou Yu's army according to the plan."

"Your Majesty, don't worry, the end general has already been arranged."

Zheng He took over the conversation and said, "I am about to report to your lord that the sailor who fled from Chibi earlier was killed by the navy battalion sent out a few days ago. The last general has sent an order to let the sailor battalion be in the lower reaches of Chibi." Launch patrols in the waters of the Yangtze River, defeat all warships transporting food and supplies, and cut off the enemy's food and grass."

"Good job." Ouyang Shuo nodded, Zheng He became more and more decisive in killing and attacking, and Ouyang Shuo didn't need to worry about general military affairs in the army.

"Zhao Sihu!" Ouyang Shuo nodded.

"The end is here!"

Zhao Sihu stood up and saluted reflexively, with an excited expression.

Along the way, the most aggrieved ones were probably the soldiers of the city guards. Seeing their own side winning consecutive battles, as landlubbers, they couldn't exert any strength.

It's really frustrating!

The soldiers were already screaming, clamoring to participate in the battle.

Now it seems that the opportunity has finally come!

"Arrange a cavalry brigade, set off immediately, and chase along the enemy's grain transportation route in Yunmeng Daze. Be sure to intercept the previous batch of food transportation teams. The enemy's front line is short of food, we have to let them even a grain of food I can't even receive them." Ouyang Shuo issued a military order.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I promise to complete the task!" Zhao Sihu promised, patted his chest.

The current City Guard Corps has long since taken on a completely new look, with extraordinary combat power. Even the mounts are all Mongolian war horses. If you want to catch up with the slow-moving food transport team, it's not easy.

Ouyang Shuo nodded, showing his confidence in the strength of the city guard army. That's all he can do for the Jiangling battlefield right now.

...

"To deal with Liu Bei's army, sir, do you have a good plan?" After dealing with the matter of supplies, Ouyang Shuo finally focused on the upcoming battle.

Everyone here, in terms of understanding of the Liu Bei Group, Jia Xu is none other than Jia Xu.

Jia Xu was also not humble, nodded and said: "Liu Bei's army exceeds 70,000. After occupying Changsha County, the strength of the army may increase again. If Liu Bei's army comes out in full force, it will never be less than 80,000."

After a pause, Jia Xu continued: "Based on what I know about Liu Bei, seeing Guan Yu's head, I can almost conclude that Liu Bei will fight with all his strength to avenge Guan Yu."

Reminiscent of the fact that Shanhai City's expeditionary army this time is only 40,000, only half of the enemy's army, the expression of the extremely generals present here is no longer relaxed, but solemn.

"Liu Bei's army has both land and water, and the main force is the army. There are top generals and top strategists in the army, so they will never act impulsively. It can be concluded that they will never rush into Chibi and fall into our ambush again." Jia Xu went on to analyze, "The biggest possibility is that land and water advance together, and the main force launches a fierce attack from land."

"You mean, they will attack Chibi?" Zheng He asked.

"Chibi and Wulin are both possible. Zhuge Liang uses troops and likes to use tactics. It is really hard to speculate. The only thing that can be concluded is that before arriving at Chibi, the army and supplies should be transported by warships. Land at a suitable place, and then make a long-distance attack to directly attack the vital points of our army." Jia Xu saw it clearly.

This battle can actually be seen as a confrontation between Jia Xu and Zhuge Liang, the two top strategists. Whoever can plan higher will be able to take the lead.

It's no wonder that Jia Xu showed a hint of excitement.
