Chapter 2013 Strategies to reduce stoves, follow the trace
When Liu Bei was preparing to march into Nanzhong, Zhao Yun and Sima Yi in Youzhou were preparing to retreat.
Just like the most advanced technologies of later generations are generally used in the military first, carrier pigeons, as the fastest way to transmit information, are the first to be used in the military.
Of course, there have been many cases where unscrupulous guys shot down carrier pigeons in order to show their shooting skills, so that now Feiqian has to transfer the breeding of carrier pigeons to a place away from the school barracks. Just like the carrier pigeon spot of Changshan Daying Camp, it is not in the camp, but hidden in the mountains, like a hunter''s cabin.
Feiqian''s letter ordering the retreat of the soldiers arrived in Changshan soon, and the soldiers in Changshan immediately rushed to the front line.
If there is no reason, and all rely on the gold medal to retreat, the generals will be surprised, and they will feel that they have paid so much, and now they have to give up all of them. Naturally, they will not accept it, and there will be some resentment. The leader will probably only give a simple order, but as a later generation of Feiqian, one understands the importance of clear communication, and the other also understands what is called "sunk cost", including positive and negative, so the description should be as short as possible I took a look at the current situation in Chang''an, and said that Yinshan has received information about the bad weather...
There is nothing to complain about.
If you want to complain, you can only complain that God doesn''t give you face.
After all, from ancient times to the Warring States period, there were many cases where the troops had to retreat because of the weather. Could it be that all these generals would violate the weather and never retreat?
It''s just that Sima Yi still wants to discuss with Zhao Yun, even if he wants to retreat, he wants to get some benefits as much as possible...
Is it always okay to have a meal before leaving?
In the barracks, a lot of cooking smoke suddenly rose.
『Ambush to lure him? ”Zhao Yun thought, “I’m afraid I dare not leave the city lightly…”
Sima Yi pointed to the soldiers who were busy outside the big tent and said: "Look, general..."
『? ”Zhao Yun’s eyes narrowed slightly, “The plan will be safe? 』
Sima Yi smiled, then lowered his voice, moved his body closer, and muttered to Zhao Yun.
…(··)nnn…
Ju Shou stood at the top of the city, looking at the smoke rising from Zhao Yun''s camp in the distance.
Zhang He ran away.
Although Zhang Yun''s running away has nothing to do with Jushou, it doesn''t mean that Jushou will not be affected at all. In the hearts of the Cao family, Zhang He and Jushou are people of the same way. Even though they didn''t say anything, how could Jushou not be aware of the problem?
Should Zhang He run away?
Sometimes such doubts inevitably arise in Jushou’s mind. Now Jushou also knows something about what happened in the camp in the west of the city at that time. He knows that the riots that night were initiated by those Xianbei people, but Zhang He and the Xianbei people have colluded for a long time, and their intentions are wrong...
Ju Shou didn''t believe it.
If Zhang Yun really wanted to rebel, how could he have captured Xia Houyuan without a fight when he arrived? This is a contradiction in itself, but if you have to say it, for example, if Zhang Yun found some important evidence, Xia Houyuan found it, and he can''t pretend anymore. Anyway, Zhang Yun is no longer in Yuyang, so it''s Cao Cao anyway. The Xiahou family has the final say.
Anyway, Zhang Xi was designated as an unfaithful and unrighteous person who could not escape the name of a traitor and rebel. The Cao family and the Xiahou family were not chaotic in the face of danger, and they were able to resist tenaciously when Zhang Yun launched a rebellion, protecting Yuyang without losing...
Anyway, even if Ju Shou didn’t read the memorial to Cao Cao, he could roughly guess what was written, but he was not sure how the two guys from the Cao family and Xiahou family wrote themselves...
But if he can really transfer himself away from Yuyang with this, Ju Shou would also wish for it.
Yuyang ah...
It''s really like a nightmare, and I still can''t wake up.
While thinking about it, Jushou brushed his hands over the cold bricks and stones on the city wall of Yuyang. This is his habit, because when counting, sometimes because of thinking of other things, he would often forget to count to How many, so generally speaking, counting chips are used to count, but naturally there are no counting chips on the city wall, so replacing the counting chips with the number of bricks and stones on the battlements has become a way of counting.
In the distance, Zhao Yun camp, the smoke from cooking is slanting.
『One five ten...huh? 』
Ju Shou''s hand stopped suddenly, hesitated for a moment, then hurriedly turned it back, and started counting again.
…Σ(ll)…
『The hussars have been reduced? 』
Cao Chun and Xia Houyuan stood on the city wall together, frowning and looking into the distance.
"It seems to be a little less..." Xia Houyuan pinched the beard on his chin and said, but in fact he didn''t remember how much it was before and how much it is now, but after hearing Jushou''s report, it seems that it is indeed the case.
『A plan to reduce the stove? 』Cao Chun had a headache. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the reduction of stoves was to show the enemy that they were weak, but now the army of hussars has reduced stoves, is it also for the same reason?
"What''s the meaning? 』Xia Houyuan stared at Cao Chun.
Cao Chun suddenly felt his head hurt even more, and motioned to Jushou that he didn''t want to talk about the art of war with Xia Houyuan.
Ju Shou generally talked about Sun Bin’s reduction of the stove.
Xia Houyuan let out a cry, then pointed at the camp far outside the city and said, "Zihe thinks this is the old hussar thief trying to lure the enemy?" 』
Cao Chun really wanted to correct that it was not Huqi himself who was outside Yuyang, but his subordinates, but after sighing, he felt too lazy to argue with Xia Houyuan, so he nodded slightly and said, "There is this one." possible. The cavalry army is good for the field and not good at attacking the city. If we can lure us out of the city, it is naturally the best choice. 』
『What if it’s not to lure the enemy? ’ Xia Houyuan immediately followed up.
Cao Chun sighed again, "If it''s not to lure the enemy, it''s because the number of soldiers has really decreased. 』
Xia Houyuan clapped his hands immediately, "Yes! In such a weather, although the hussars and horses can withstand the wind and cold, don''t forget that before the hussars and horses were able to raid Mobei, various preparations must be indispensable. However, the current weather is abnormal, we are in the city, we still need to get warm things and use them, how can we resist such severe cold when riding in the wild? Don''t you say that hussars and horses can be regarded as such an abnormal time? And I was able to bring a lot of winter things before the war...』
Cao Chun took a deep breath and stopped talking.
Is what Xia Houyuan said unreasonable? No, it makes sense. Is what Xia Houyuan said impossible? Nor is it. There is also this possibility.
Generally speaking, the cold-proof utensils in winter will occupy a considerable space. If you want to install thick felt blankets, they will naturally occupy the position of food and grass. If it is not necessary, who will carry a lot of cold-proof utensils in March in Yangchun Marching and fighting? Therefore, it is certain that Zhao Yun and others must have endured a certain degree of cold in the current climate change, but the question is whether Zhao Yun and other hussars really retreated because of the cold weather?
『Master Ju, what do you think? 』Cao Chun turned around and asked Jushou.
Ju Shou lowered his head, unable to see his expression, "The two generals are right..."
Hearing Jushou''s words, Cao Chun was not happy, and Xia Houyuan was not satisfied either.
For Cao Chun, his most important responsibility is to guard Yuyang. Yuyang is the first. He didn''t have any other ideas on the Internet, but for Xia Houyuan, it was different.
Although facing Zhao Yun Sima Yi''s attack, the two had the same goal and were able to work together to defend, but when they discovered that there were new changes in Zhao Yun Sima Yi''s camp, the two were still able to stand together. The foundation is shaken.
Xia Houyuan was originally dissatisfied that Cao Chun robbed him of his military power and replaced his position, and from a certain point of view, Xia Houyuan encountered the rebellion of Zhang He Xianbei in the camp west of the city, although it cannot be said that Xia Houyuan was 100% alone. Human responsibility, but it has something to do with it. If rewards were based on merit after the war, Cao Chun would be credited for keeping Yuyang, but what about Xia Houyuan?
What can Xia Houyuan obtain? Could it be that he didn''t do anything in Yuyang, didn''t have any commendable meritorious service, and then Cao Cao would praise him for it, and then hand over the general power to him?
Obviously impossible, so to regain military power, one must have meritorious deeds, and watching helplessly in the city, will there be meritorious deeds?
Didn''t Xia Houyuan know about the so-called "plan to reduce cooking stoves"? Actually it wasn''t, he knew, it was just because Xia Houyuan''s desire to make contributions was more urgent than Cao Chunlai''s, so even if there was a risk, he was unwilling to just give up such an opportunity.
"You can send more scouts to detect at night..." Ju Shou suddenly regretted that he had reported the reduction of cooking smoke, he hesitated for a moment and said, "Besides, if it is difficult for the two generals to make a decision... why not wait another two or three days to see what happens how? If it is to lure the enemy, there must be an ambush, but under this severe cold, it is difficult to stay in the mountains and fields for a long time, and if we do not come out, we will definitely show up... If we really retreat, the number of soldiers in the camp will gradually decrease, if General Xiahou goes out to attack, It''s also easier...」
『Hmm…』 Cao Chun pondered, and glanced at Xia Houyuan, 『What does Miao Cai think? 』
Xia Houyuan rolled his eyes and laughed, "Zihe is the master!" 』
Cao Chun squinted his eyes, and then said to Ju Shou: "Ju Junjun''s words are right! Just follow the strategy of the military division! 』
『…』Ju Shou lowered his head, and fell silent like the green bricks on the top of Yuyang City.
…┐(～)┌…
People in Yuyang are looking for Zhao Yun''s whereabouts, and in Chang''an, there are also people looking for traces.
『Ask you now, where did Lady Zhen go? 』
A middle-aged man stood frowning in front of the gate of Zhen Mi''s courtyard in Chang''an, and asked Zhen Mi''s concierge.
『The little one is just a porter, how dare you ask about the whereabouts of the Lord...」 Zhen Mi the porter nodded and bowed, with a humble attitude.
The middle-aged man, also surnamed Zhen, is a member of the Zhen family. He was ordered by Zhen Yan to come to Chang''an to look for Zhen Mi, but since seeing Zhen Mi for the first time, he has never been found again.
Now seeing Zhen Mi''s concierge in such a state, even a fool can guess that Zhen Mi is avoiding him on purpose.
Why did you come to see Zhen Mi?
It''s very simple, three words, trace gold fan.
Whether it is ancient or modern, children and women''s money is the best money to earn.
It''s just a pity that the original goods for noble women in the Han Dynasty were all cosmetics and powders, and there were few new things. Therefore, those ladies'' fans and sandalwood fans in Dang Feiqian''s gold-painting fan series As soon as it came out, it was immediately sought after by noble women.
The resulting profits are naturally considerable.
『Go to Qinglong Temple! 』Zhen Mi was not at home, middle-aged people are not easy to break into the house, waiting is not something to lose face, so after thinking about it for a while, he got on the horse and prepared to go to Qinglong Temple to find Zhen Mi.
Zhen Mi has a shop in Qinglong Temple that specializes in selling sandalwood fans for ladies. If middle-aged people want to come, since Zhen Mi is not at home, they probably went to Qinglong Temple, but in fact, Zhen Mi did not go to Qinglong Temple, but went to Another place.
The place where Zheng Xuan taught.
Zheng Xuan arrived in Chang''an, and after getting used to it at the initial stage, he gradually opened up the dojo and began to brag about it. Zheng Xuan himself has a very deep study of Confucian classics, especially good at commenting on some Confucian classics, and has a deep research on "Book of Changes", "Zuo Zhuan", "Book of Filial Piety", etc., and the key is that Zheng Xuan treats every gentry who studies The attitude of the children is always the same, neither friendly nor indifferent, quite a gentleman''s demeanor, so more and more children of the noble family go to study.
Sima Hui, it can be said that success is also a water mirror, and failure is also a water mirror.
Because Sima Hui took the route of knowing people before, and made something like "Yin Kun" and "Phoenix Young", which became known all over the world. Although he gained the reputation of superman because of this, it also attracted many sons of noble families to Sima Hui. When I was wandering around, I didn''t want to really ask Sima Hui for advice, but I hoped that I would be the next title winner...
Those who came to Zheng Xuan for advice, Zheng Xuan could easily answer, but those who came to ask Sima Hui for a title, Sima Hui couldn''t just give it to him at will. Comparing the two, Sima Hui was suddenly much more embarrassed, and his heart couldn''t help but feel like Like the idea of ??"first come", but very helpless.
Zheng Xuan did not live in Chang''an City, but settled at the foot of the mountain in the western suburbs of Chang''an. This place is called Little Lion Mountain. There is a small lake on the side of the mountain.
Beside the small mirror lake is the residence of Zheng Xuan, his disciple Xi Xi and others. There are more than ten thatched cottages, and there is a lecture every day, only about half an hour, at most an hour, after all, old man Zheng is also old and his body can''t support it. Sometimes I talk about rhymes, sometimes I talk about scriptures, they are different, all according to Zheng Xuan''s will, never advance notice, and there is no way for the children of the gentry to make any requests, they can only say that it is like a daily lottery, what do you want to hear Courses are all about luck.
Most of the children of the gentry lived in Chang''an City, or in nearby mausoleums. They rushed over eagerly in the morning to listen to Zheng Xuan''s lecture, and it was basically noon. Although people in the Han Dynasty generally ate two meals, but For the children of the gentry, eating a snack and drinking tea naturally cannot be called a main meal, so there is no taboo, and it is not considered arrogance.
So after Zheng Xuan finished his lectures, in Xiaojingze, children of noble families would often gather around the curtain and meet to cook tea, argue, or discuss Taoism, which became another gathering point after Qinglong Temple.
Qinglong Temple is more like a super hypermarket for later generations. It has everything, from gems from the Western Regions, to brocades from Sichuan and Shu, reprints of ancient books, new works by Cai''s family, etc., and Zheng Xuan''s small mirror Ze This is like a private restaurant, you can''t order what you want to eat, it''s all done by the chef, and there are no other items, so the style is completely different and not comparable.
But people, in their nature, there is a bit of "cheapness", and the same is true of Zheng Xuan. The more freely Zheng Xuan gave lectures, the more people were willing to come to grab a prize every day. If they happened to meet Zheng Xuan''s lectures and talked about the bottleneck of his knowledge, he would naturally publicize it with joy after more or less mastering it. Among the gentry, the so-called "survivor bias" of Zheng Xuan''s style naturally exists. It seems that after listening to Zheng Xuan''s lecture, everyone can be enlightened...
If it was a normal time, there would be some wild flowers beside the small mirror lake, and the spring would be nice to enjoy, but now it is bleak, with cold wind.
At the end of the day, near noon, although there is no rain or snow, the clouds are still low, the sky is as dark as dusk, and the few wild flowers on the banks of the lake have lost their bright colors in the spring, and they only hate themselves There is no proud snow style of plum blossoms, or the frosty appearance of camellia.
Zhen Mi was wearing a black lamb fur, and sat quietly beside the small mirror. The black lamb fur set off her delicate and fair face, making her look even more delicate. Her lips were lightly red, giving her a bright color.
Beside Zhen Mi, the well-behaved maidservant who looked like a bunny rolled her eyes, as if she wanted to say something but dared not say it.
『It’s really a beautiful spring...it’s time to paint...』
Zhen Mi said softly, with a hint of sarcasm in her eyes.
『Painting is divided into six categories, figures, buildings, landscapes, pommel horses, flowers and birds, ghosts and gods...』 Zhen Mi picked up the brush and drew on the table in front of her, "Unfortunately, it is easy to draw ghosts and difficult to draw people..."
There are people from Jizhou.
Those guys didn''t want to leave back then, so they let Zhen Mi go, these guys didn''t want to change, so they let Zhen Mi change, these guys didn''t want to sacrifice, so they let Zhen Mi sacrifice, these guys didn''t want to betray their looks, so they let Zhen Mi Sell ??out your hue.
Now, Jizhou is having a hard time, so he came up again and asked Zhen Mi why she didn''t make any progress, why she couldn''t repay the family, why she didn''t give up the gold painting fan business...
The maid who looked like a little rabbit moved her ears, as if she heard something, she stretched her neck and turned her head to take a look, and immediately said, "Xiao Niang, the lady of the Xin family is here..."
Zhen Mi put down the pen, Yingying stood up, immediately put a smile on her delicate face, and greeted her.
『Sister Zhen, why did you choose this place? What does it mean that the lake and hills are low? ’Xin Xianying was bouncing around, and when she got out of the car, she complained, ‘It’s so cold...hiss...’
Zhen Mi smiled very elegantly, and while guiding Xin Xianying to sit down, she said, "Master Zheng is here. Although the mountain is not high, it gathers bells and spirits. Although there is not much water, it can refresh the mind. What''s not beautiful?" 』
Xin Xianying curled his lips, then looked at another group of gentry children in the distance, frowned and said: "It''s a pity that there are flies and bees here, and they will inevitably linger and stir up troubles. It''s really annoying..."
Zhen Mi still smiled, "Isn''t this just right? Also let these self-proclaimed stalwarts take a look at our means... Ah, Mrs. Wang is here too...』
