Chapter 245
In the north of Yinguan City, the Hong River, which was originally calm, had a rare tendency to burst its embankment due to the continuous rainfall.

This was the barrier Guo Jia used to defeat Liu Bao's [-] troops.

"Zhicai, what's the plan?" Guo Jia asked.

Xi Zhicai lowered his head in contemplation, then raised his head after a long time, looked at Guo Jia in surprise and said, "It's amazing, it's unimaginable!"

On the other hand, Zhao Yun didn't understand. Flooding Yinguan City was indeed a clever plan, but it wasn't magical.

"Mr. Xi, why do you say that?"

Xi Zhicai smiled slightly, and looked at the crowd, and sure enough, most of them had the same expression as Zhao Yun, bewildered, and simply didn't hide their secrets, and said, "I say it's amazing, there are three reasons.

First, according to common sense, the general rainy season is usually in August, when the river water will accumulate, so the strategists are always used to attacking by water at that time.But this year, the weather is abnormal. Now that it has just entered summer, it has been raining continuously for so long. The weather is weird, and there are conditions for water attack at this moment. I think most people can't think of this. You won't be guarding against this.

Second, the Huns lived on the northern grasslands, which lacked rain, and they were also accustomed to a climate with little rain.Such weather must make them extremely uncomfortable.According to reports from our spies, during the march, many Huns fell ill, and after finally entering Yinguan City, they will definitely cultivate well.According to my estimation, the Huns would never send sentries to patrol around Yindian City in this rainy day.In fact, this is also the case. According to reports from our people, the sentry of the Huns has hardly ever left Yinguan City.

Third, the biggest disadvantage of water attack is that it does not distinguish between enemy and friend, and often hurts the people.But at this time, it was a god-sent opportunity.Because of the perennial plunder of the Xiongnu, the people of Yanmen County were always running and fleeing.This time the lord was evacuated again, and all the people had been transferred. At this moment, only the Xiongnu army was left in Yinguan City, but not a single person.Now the water attack will not harm the innocent at all.

Is such a good opportunity considered miraculous? "

Zhao Yun froze when he heard Xi Zhicai's words. The surprise attack this time was definitely the best opportunity. It is understandable that Zhao Yun is familiar with military books.

But what he didn't expect was that it didn't hurt the common people.Zhao Yun was ashamed secretly, thinking that he had always claimed to be loyal and righteous, but he never thought of protecting the people.

Before Guo Jia ordered Chunyi to lead the Xiongnu army around the mountains in Yanmen County, but he himself led the army to Yinguan City early to disperse the people. At that time, Zhao Yun could not understand, but at this moment, he can deeply feel Guo Jia's intentions at the time.

Zhao Yun never treated Guo Jia with sincerity because he had heard something.When Guo Jia was in Luoyang, he once risked the dissatisfaction of the world and said: "For my brothers and relatives, what if I kill all the people in the world?"

As soon as these words came out, I don't know how many famous scholars Qingliu criticized him, criticizing Guo Jia for being extremely arrogant and vicious.It was also at that time that Zhao Yun had an opinion on Guo Jia.He naturally understood Guo Jia's words of protection and favor for his brothers and relatives, and he was also very moved, but for these, he would hurt the people of the world, but Zhao Yun never agreed.Where is there any benevolence of a scholar and a love of the world?
Zhao Yun looked at Guo Jia. At this moment, he was frowning and squinting, as if he was thinking about something.

During this period of contact, he can be considered to know Guo Jia a little bit.

To his subordinates, he is very close and approachable. He usually doesn't have any airs of a lord, and often gets along with everyone.Not only Xi Zhicai, who took care of him since he was a child, but also Dian Wei, Xu Huang, and Chun Yi, his confidantes who have followed him for a long time, and even the lowest-ranking soldiers, Guo Jia often chatted with them, talked happily, and had no regrets. nothing to talk about.

He is such an unassuming lord with almost no majesty to speak of, but his words, from the military adviser Xi Zhicai to the fierce general Dianwei, from the butter vendor to the ordinary soldiers Guo Da and Guo Er, are all resolutely carried out and believed in to the end.

Just look at that nine-foot-tall Dian Wei, Dian Wuji, who has he served?Even the emperor of Luoyang is not in his eyes.Lu Bu of Bingzhou is invincible in the world, but Dian Wei is still not convinced, only Guo Jia is one of the only one and a half people he is convinced.There is still half, naturally it is Mr. Xi Zhicai who taught his son to read and write.

He did everything he could to deal with the enemy.Those world-renowned celebrities in Luoyang, who had the mentality of being against Guo Jia in everything, were not tamed by him, who either vomited blood and fainted, or was bedridden.Ding Yuan, governor of Bingzhou, wanted to show off his prestige in front of Guo Jia.But Guo Jia didn't take the governor of Yizhou seriously at all, just a few words made him furious but he was helpless.He Jin and Zhang Nuan were taken down, and Liu Bei was wanted all over the country. When facing the Huns, he killed countless enemies by himself.

He never said anything that celebrities and Confucian scholars often talked about, such as helping the Han Dynasty and saving the people, and he never expressed any pain for the suffering of the people.But when the war really started, he put the people in his heart, and tried to minimize the casualties of the people in everything, from Li County to Yinguan.

It is said that he deviates from the scriptures and is so arrogant that he is arrogant, but when he meets the people, he is kind and amiable.When Cai Yong came to rescue, everyone didn't know his identity, they thought he was just an ordinary citizen, but under such circumstances, Guo Jia went out to meet him regardless of his own safety, carried the old man back, and prepared a place to rest and water.

However, after knowing the identity of the old man, everyone respected him very much and spoke a little restrainedly.Especially Xi Zhicai, who has always been so light-hearted, was so excited that he couldn't restrain himself.On the contrary, Guo Jia, who was kind before, was not affected in any way, and did not change his attitude because of Cai Yong's status as a leading Confucianist in the world, and became closer.

After hearing the news of the death of Cai Yong's daughter Cai Wenji, Guo Jia was a little surprised, which Zhao Yun couldn't figure out.But it's almost inseparable, and I'm worried because I care about it.

(Of course Zhao Yun doesn't know, don't look at Cai Yong's great reputation, even the emperor is not as good as him. But in later generations, a beautiful woman like Cai Wenji, and a talented woman with a story, her reputation is far greater than Cai Yong. Especially in the hearts of young people, many people know Cai Wenji, but they don't know Cai Yong.)
In Zhao Yun's heart, Guo Jia's image gradually changed. This is a person who doesn't talk about it, but puts the people in his heart.

"My lord, Zhao Zilong swears today that he is willing to dedicate himself to his lord, until he dies!"

Suddenly, Zhao Yun bent down and knelt down, and said solemnly.
