three kings

Chapter 146 Doing the opposite

Sun Can listened with fascination, he never thought that failure is also a hero.Thinking about it now is also true, Xiang Yu's victory made him arrogant, while Liu Bang's failure made him more cautious.

Liu Hua smiled slightly. He was an excellent teacher in his previous life. He has done psychological work as a student not once or twice. He knows some psychology more or less.When it comes to comforting people, in today's world, no one can compare with him.He continued: "Maybe you haven't heard it, but in Yafu's hometown, there was a saying, 'Failure is the mother of success', if you don't taste the bitterness of failure, how can you have the joy of victory?

Failure is not terrible, what is terrible is getting lost in failure and not being able to get out.Remember, people should look to the future, not live in the past.There is a poem that says, "The mountains and rivers are full of doubts, and there is no way out, and the flowers on the willow banks are another village." 'Even if the situation is too dangerous, as long as you have confidence, you will definitely win the final victory.

As long as Can Er can learn the indomitable spirit of Gao Zu, her achievements in the future will never be inferior to Gao Zu. "

Hearing Liu Hua's words, Sun Can was like a slap in the face, enlightened, and read in a low voice: "The mountains and rivers are full of doubts and there is no way out, and the flowers on the willow banks are another village." After reading, his eyes flashed with confidence again, and said: "Ah! Father, my son understands. Jia Xu is indeed powerful, but my son doesn't believe he can't deal with him."

Liu Hua nodded approvingly and said: "Jia Xu is unfathomable, and his intelligence is no less than that of Wen Ruo and Feng Xiao. At this moment, they occupy a favorable location, and with the solidity of the city, they can't defend it. Strong attack is definitely not a good way. I Although the army has lost three battles in a row, the loss of strength is not great, so what if the opponent can't take our army? For the current method, the only way is to stand still and devise other strategies before making plans."

Sun Can asked: "Yafu, when Can sent troops, you reminded Can in every possible way to be careful of Jia Xu. Now that he is really defeated by him, what is he like? Why does he always want to be ahead of us?"

Liu Hua replied: "The wise men in the world have different abilities. Wen Ruo is majestic and good at controlling the overall situation. Feng Xiao has a strange mind and is good at winning by surprise. Gong Jin is quick-witted, quick-witted, and good at adapting to changes. Jia Xu is gloomy and vicious. Trying to figure out people's hearts, taking advantage of the weaknesses of human nature, and defeating the enemy. His strategy has always been aimed at everyone's death spot. Therefore, it is very vicious. He knows that Can'er is aggressive and courageous, and will not give up Nanyang easily. Ambushes. An ambush was thus planned."

Sun Can nodded and thought suddenly, "I just thought of a way, maybe there is a chance to lure the other party out."

Liu Hua said: "What method?"

"Fake injury. Yafu, pass down the order. Three days later, forcefully attack the city. During the siege, Yafu will be in charge of the entire army. At the same time, separate the commanding account of the Chinese army. Except for the generals, the Fan family, and the guards of the Xu family, No one is allowed to enter, and those who disobey the order will be beheaded." Sun Can said in a deep voice.

What he meant was very simple, that was to do the opposite to Jia Xu's character.Sun Can goes out to fight, and must advance in every battle. He sits in the middle army and commands the overall situation, relying on his excellent commanding ability.The battle must be won, and the attack must be captured.

Suddenly, Sun Can, who often sits in command of the Chinese army, disappeared.Ordinary people don't think about the inevitable, but Jia Xu, who is good at trying to figure out people's hearts, will definitely have doubts.

It doesn't need any pretentious details, just a little idea, and Jia Xu will definitely guess it.

Three days later, Sun Canjun built the siege ladder, led the army to attack the city below Wancheng, and assumed a posture of preparing to attack the city.

At that time, a flying horse came to report to Zhang Xiu, saying that Sun Can's army had begun to gather troops and was about to attack the city.

"... Pata..."

When Jia Xu heard Tan Ma's words, Jia Xu was so surprised that he even dropped the letter in his hand on the ground. He didn't know it, and thought, "When did Sun Can become so confused?" He even suspected that he heard it wrong. Yes, tell Tanma to report again. .
Tan Ma said again: "Sun Can's army has set up a formation under the city and is about to attack the city."

Zhang Xiu, who was immersed in the joy of victory, couldn't believe his ears. He kept shaking his head and said, "How is this possible? How is it possible? This Sun Can is crazy, doesn't he care about anything? Not long after the defeat, Attack again."

Zhang Xiu put his hands behind his back and walked back and forth, feeling an inexplicable sense of panic in his heart.Obviously, he defeated the opponent three times in a row.But the opponent seemed like an undefeated monster, as soon as he turned around, he recovered all his fighting power.Not only that, his army always recovered again and again, and went into battle with stronger morale.

It makes me beat the opponent every time I work hard, but it seems that I am the one who fails in the end.

And Jia Xu has only now realized that he cannot estimate Sun Canjun's actual combat capabilities.Although he thinks that he knows Sun Can very well, he knows that he is good at using soldiers and has many tricks.However, the momentum of repeated defeats and battles like now surprised him.

Standing at the top of the city, he saw that the soldiers under the city were full of energy, morale and fighting spirit, but they were not harmed by the failure at all.

Suddenly, he saw that the character written on the military flag in the distance was not Sun, but Liu.Surprised: "What's going on here? Could it be that Sun Can is the leader of the army? Impossible! Sun Can always goes to the front line to command every battle. Could it be that something unexpected happened?"

Zhang Xiu said: "Impossible, maybe this person surnamed Liu is slightly better than Sun Can?"

Jia Xu shook his head and said: "The leader of the whole army must be convinced by the whole army. It is a big taboo for soldiers to know that soldiers do not respect generals. Only when "orders must be respected and orders must be obeyed" can it be possible to "war must win, attack Must take'. In Sun Can's army, there are only two people who can command the whole army, one is Sun Can, and the other is Sun Can's sub-father Liu Hua.

And Liu Hua is a "talent for helping the world". He knows strategy, knows the art of war, and can command troops, but his ability to command troops is definitely not as good as Sun Can.With Sun Can's character, there is no reason not to be afraid of the battle.Did the fire really surprise him? "He thought about all of Sun Can's habits. Apart from being injured, he really couldn't think of any reason why Sun Can would not personally command the battle.

Zhang Xiu asked suspiciously: "Probably not. If something really happened, why is there no news? If you are seriously injured, why do you have to punish yourself with the army stick?"

Jia Xu pinched her beard and replied softly: "Sun Can is like this. While he is lenient towards others, he is also very strict with himself. Therefore, he is also loved by thousands of soldiers, and he is punished for enduring injuries. It’s not surprising. There is also the art of war that pays attention to the difference between reality and reality. Right is wrong, and wrong is right. In order to stabilize the morale of the army, the opponent is likely to keep secret. In order to prevent our army from becoming suspicious, we stormed Wancheng as a warning.”

Zhang Xiuxiu said happily: "It's so, tonight I will take [-] cavalry and go to intercept the camp."

"No!" Jia Xu stopped and said, "The above is all conjecture, how can you act rashly."

Zhang Xiu said disapprovingly, "Mr. Wen He never made a mistake?"

Jia Xu said lightly: "Even Zhang Zifang, the sage-seeker back then, made mistakes, let alone Jia Xu. A true hero can stretch, bend, attack and defend. Defeat in the first battle does not diminish the heroism. Although repeated defeats He who fights repeatedly without being subdued, who finally wins the hearts of the people and the world, is a hero! Therefore, the talent of a hero is not only martial arts, but also has strategy, understands the general trend, and does not care about the smallness of the moment.

Although Sun Can was defeated, it was impossible for him to be knocked down by failure with his character.Facing him, you can't be sloppy at all. "At this moment, Jia Xu was also unable to determine the authenticity for a while.

Zhang Xiu said: "Then what should I do?"

Jia Xu smiled strangely and said, "The general can write a letter and give it to Liu Biao in Jingzhou. Ask him to send troops to break Sun Can's back. If Sun Can is healthy, Liu Biao will bear all the losses. If he is healthy, we can work together to break it."

During the discussion, Sun Can's army had already launched an offensive. Zhang Xiu personally commanded from the top of the wall, but the attack failed. Sun Can's army lost some soldiers and retreated temporarily.

Sun Canjun is in command.

"What a Jia Xu, I can't be sure of my judgment, so I lured my allies to fight, it really is scheming." When Sun Can got Jia Xu's use of Liu Biao's news to find out the truth, his face was weird again, and he thought: "And This Jia Wenhe is dealing with, when will he sell me, maybe I will still be foolishly counting the money for him."

At the moment, there is no more hesitation. At this moment, Sun Can's army urgently needs a victory to boost morale, so he immediately sent Guo Jia, Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, and Zhao Yunan to fight Liu Biao's reinforcements.

In the second year of Jian'an (AD [-]), June [-]th.

Liu Biao sent Liu Pan, a brave and warlike son, to lead [-] troops to assist Zhang Xiu in Wancheng to resist Sun Can, intending to go out to Xinye to seize Anle and Lushan to the city to cut off the retreat of Sun Can's army.

June eighteenth.

Using Guo Jia's plan, Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, Zhao Yun and others ambushed Liu Pan's army on the bank of Yushui. They won a complete victory and accidentally captured a suspicious person on the way back to the army.

Back in the army, after deliberation, Sun Can, Liu Hua, Guo Jia and others decided to interrogate suspicious persons suddenly.

The suspicious person had a guilty conscience and confessed within a few rounds.

It turned out that this suspicious person was the emissary sent by Lu Bu to form an alliance with Liu Biao. At this moment, he was rushing back to Xuzhou with the alliance letter he had negotiated with Liu Biao.

Unfortunately, he met Sun Canjun's returning army division on the way. With a guilty conscience, he showed his flaws and was arrested.

When Sun Can and the others got the news, they felt uneasy again.

Now, it has reached a dilemma, and there are only two roads before Sun Can.

First, return to Huainan. In this way, all opportunities for combat will be lost.

Second, capture Wancheng immediately and open the passage to the south.

However, things are not as simple as imagined. If you want to capture Wancheng, you must first pass Jia Xu.If Jia Xu is willing to fight, Sun Can is absolutely sure to defeat him.It's a pity that this old fox would never leave Wancheng even half a step. With the help of Wancheng's strength, he trapped Sun Can and others outside the city, looking at the city and sighing.

All civil servants and generals, there is nothing you can do.

The night was as cold as water, Guo Jia walked quietly in the barracks, his mind was full of thoughts, and his mind was full of Jia Xu.The so-called meeting good talents and meeting opponents is a great joy in life.

The same is true for counselors. Two top strategists with similar talents can also have the same feeling.

However, opponents are hard to find.Finally, an opponent with similar intellect appeared. Guo Jia wanted to compete with him, but the opponent was a fox, a fox who never gave him a chance to make plans.

In normal times, he would hide himself very tightly, shrunk in Wancheng, making him helpless, and would only venture out when he was attacking, but even so, he still hid himself very deeply, so that Guo Jia had no idea what to do. chance to confront him.

"How can we break the deadlock, and how can we get this old fox out of the city?" Guo Jia thought for a long time that he couldn't think of a way to get Wancheng to send troops.

"The only way to break Jia Xu is to do the opposite. Although the master did the opposite, although it didn't achieve results, it also exposed Jia Xu's flaws. It made him unable to figure out the master's mind, which made Liu Biao a scapegoat. It can be seen that the method of the lord is correct, but it has not achieved results." Guo Jia muttered to himself.

After a long time, Guo Jia sighed and said, "If it doesn't work, we have to retreat. Only in this way can we resist Lu Bu and divide Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu."

Suddenly, with a flash of inspiration, "retreat", "do the opposite"

"Yes... yes... that's it." Guo Jia's eyes flashed with color, and he walked quickly to Sun Can's tent.

At this time, how can he control so much, even if Sun Can is sleeping, he still wakes him up.

Sun Can is handsome.

Wearing a brocade robe, Sun Can flipped through the book of war under the faint light, when he suddenly heard the news that Guo Jia asked to see him, Sun Can knew that Guo Jia was looking for him at this time, and he must have something very important to discuss, so he went to see him immediately. invited him in.

She said with concern: "Feng Xiao, don't rest at night, be careful of relapse!"

Guo Jia smiled gratefully: "It's okay, Mr. Zijing taught Jia a set of boxing techniques in Shouchun, and now Jia's health is much better than before. It's been a long time Weakness, coughing, etc. have appeared." After a pause, he directly entered the topic and said, "Master, Tianjia has been thinking about defeating the enemy these days, thinking that as long as the opponent stays in Wancheng for a day, our army will not be able to open this door. Fan into the gate of thorns."

Sun Can nodded. He understood this truth. The talented Jia Xu had the cover of a fortified city like Wancheng, let alone him. It is probably impossible to capture Wancheng.The only way is to lure the other party out, but to lure Jia Xu into being fooled, the difficulty is not much easier than that of June Feishuang.

However, he didn't speak, just waiting, waiting for Guo Jia to reveal his plan.At this time, if Sun Can still can't guess that Guo Jia has a clever plan, then what qualifications does he have to convince this ghost.

If, his next sentence is "Master, Jia has a way, maybe he can make Jia Xu fall for it."
