Chapter 160 New Military Advisor—Guo Jia!
Chapter 160 New Military Advisor—Guo Jia!
Outside Jiyang City, there are also a large number of tents stationed in another area of Fenshui. These are where the puppet army soldiers live.
The puppet army also lit a bonfire here. A group of puppet soldiers sat on the ground around the fire, while someone was holding branches and roasting chickens caught from the city.
On a flat ground not far away, several figures were crawling forward, led by Huo Qubing.
Because he was gathering intelligence, Huo Qubing did not dare to make too much noise. When he was far away, he dismounted his horse and walked.
After walking for a while, he saw a faint flash of fire ahead, so he changed his way and crawled forward along the ground.
Finally, they stopped thousands of meters away from the puppet army camp. Although they could not see the situation ahead clearly, they could still roughly judge the number of soldiers and horses from the endless tents.
"With so many camps, the puppet army probably has tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and the Chao country's army will be even more..."
"It's a good thing that the Lord didn't rush to pursue us. Otherwise, if we couldn't escape, more than half of the army would have died here."
After obtaining the intelligence, Huo Qubing continued to retreat on the ground until he thought he had reached a safe distance, then he started running.
After finding the horses, he and his subordinates rode back quickly.
On the other side, Ying Xuanze was still looking at the topographic map with several generals, and then he heard a soldier shouting, "General Huo is back!"
Ying Xuanze stood up immediately, and when Huo Qubing dismounted and came over, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "How is it? Where is the main force of the Chao Kingdom?"
After saying that, he handed over the topographic map in his hand. With the map, Huo Qubing immediately pointed to several places based on the route they had just taken.
"There is a big river ahead of us, which should be the Fen River on the map."
"On this side of the Fen River is the puppet army's camp. There are a lot of soldiers, at least tens of thousands. On the other side of the Fen River is probably the main force of the Chao State."
"They let the puppet army defend this side. If the puppet army can annihilate the enemy, then they don't need to send troops. If not, they can cut off the bridge over the river according to the battlefield situation."
Bai Qi, who was standing by, frowned and said in a deep voice, "If that's the case, we can't wipe out the puppet army all at once, or else the Chao people will break the bridge and we won't be able to get through."
"Even if we can get through, it will take a long time, and by then the North Koreans will have already evacuated with their army."
Ying Xuanze nodded: "Yes, the Chao people are very smart. They know how to use the Fen River to divide the battlefield. If we want to annihilate them completely, we really have to think of a way."
Thinking of this, Ying Xuanze realized that exchanging counselors was urgent, so he asked several generals to continue looking at the map, while he walked to the side and opened the system mall.
After opening the mall, he chose [Advisor Template] without hesitation and searched for an advisor suitable for this battle among all the advisors.
Finally, he locked his eyes on the name written on it: [Guo Jia]
Guo Jia, courtesy name Fengxiao, was a counselor that Cao Cao was proud of in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, and Cao Cao himself had a very high opinion of him.
"The one who will help me achieve great things must be this person!"
It was because of Guo Jia that Cao Cao was able to unify the entire north. Later, Guo Jia fell ill and died, and Cao Cao cried bitterly in front of his grave.
Later, Cao Cao mentioned on many occasions that if Fengxiao was still alive, he would not have been defeated, and even the outcome of the Battle of Chibi would have been rewritten.
The points required for a strategist are much more than those for a general, but Ying Xuanze has tens of millions of points, which is just a drop in the bucket for him.
[Exchange for S-level strategist—Guo Jia, this time consumes 300 million points! ]
Talent [100 wins and 100 losses]: After Guo Jia activates the talent, within a radius of meters where the talent falls, all attributes of our soldiers increase by %! All attributes of enemy soldiers decrease by %!
[Note: The talent lasts only fifteen minutes, and the cooldown period is 36 hours.]
After learning about Guo Jia's talent, Ying Xuanze was pleasantly surprised. Although this talent only lasted for fifteen minutes, this ability was unreasonable!
After his talent was activated, the enemy was like a group of ordinary people in front of his army. Fifteen minutes seemed short, but it was extremely long for the enemy.
No wonder this talent has a cooling time of 36 hours. If the cooling time was shorter, he felt that he could kill all the way to the doorstep of Chao State with just these tens of thousands of cavalry.
As he closed the system mall, a young man appeared in front of him. Ying Xuanze thought that this should be the young Guo Jia.
Historically, Guo Jia also met Cao Cao at this age and was reused by him ever since.
"Guo Fengxiao pays his respects to the lord." Guo Jia bowed and said.
"Please excuse me, I will go with you to meet the generals so that we can discuss a plan to defeat the enemy!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ying Xuanze took Guo Jia back to several generals and introduced Guo Jia to them.
"You generals are extremely brave. My lord, with you, there is hope for hegemony." Guo Jia said with a smile, and several generals laughed along.
Afterwards, Ying Xuanze and several generals informed Guo Jia of what had happened in the Yandong area and the military situation of the Chao Kingdom.
"Military advisor, please look at the map. There are enemy troops here and there. This is Fenshui, the largest river in the entire Yandong area, and there is only one bridge on it." Guan Yu explained to Guo Jia while holding the map.
Guo Jia took out the map and looked at the terrain with a serious expression. After looking at a few places, he squinted his eyes as if he was thinking.
After a while, Guo Jia pointed to a mountain range on the map and said, "If we want to annihilate the Chao army in one fell swoop, it is unlikely to attack from the front."
"Because the only means of crossing the river is controlled by the North Koreans, once the situation is not favorable to them, they can delay for a long time by simply cutting off the bridge."
"Whether we retreat or wait for reinforcements, it will be to their advantage, so we must launch a surprise attack. As the art of war says: defeat them with a surprise attack!"
Guo Jia asked in a deep voice: "May I ask, lord, can our army endure the hardship?"
Ying Xuanze laughed and said, "My soldiers are not afraid of death, so how can they be afraid of hardship? Military Advisor, just make your arrangements!"
After hearing this, Guo Jia gestured on the map with confidence and said, "The puppet army of the Chao Kingdom is here, so let's send some troops to this area to deal with them first."
"We have to fight, but we won't fight hard but waste time with them, while the main force will climb this mountain and reach their area on the other side."
The mountain range that Guo Jia pointed to was called Yanshan, one of the five highest mountains in Daying! Yanshan was a thousand miles deep, separating the Pasu grassland from the Yandong plain.
This is also an important reason why Guling Pass became the only entrance and exit. If people on the grassland want to enter Yandong, they must either cross Chaoguo or go through Guling Pass.
Therefore, the Yandong region is the only area in the entire northern part of Daying that has not been attacked and looted by the Hu people. The only threat since ancient times has been the Chao State.
