"Use water attack!"

More than 100,000 villagers were organized to dig the river, intending to directly divert the Fei water to flood Shouchun.

It has been raining heavily for several days in Huainan, the dirt roads are muddy, the water level has skyrocketed, and the turnover of food is cumbersome. If Shouchun cannot be captured within two months, the Xuzhou Army may have to retreat.

The scouts sent by Hou Jing to investigate outside the city found that the Xuzhou Corps was diverting the Fei River, and couldn't help but panic. Once Shouchun is submerged by Fei water, no one can escape.

Hou Jing tried to struggle and led his soldiers out of the city to fight many times, but was repelled by Chen Qingzhi.

Knowing that he was in danger, Hou Jing, after experiencing despair, simply sat idly by, drinking and having fun in the city, spending his days passively.

Mi Fang, who lacked the ability to command troops and horses, was responsible for digging river channels and diverting Fei water.

As a branch of the Huai River, the Feishui River can be used for flooding because of the rainy days, and the river water has skyrocketed.

Mi Fang regarded the task of diverting the Fei water as Chu Tian's trust in him, and carried a shovel to dig the river.

Chutian patiently waited for the water to flood Shouchun, and at the same time he ordered Xu Sheng to prepare a large number of grain-carrying ships to prepare to attack the Shouchun city wall from the water.

Zang Ba and Sun Guan's Langya defensive corps supported Hefei, assisting Yang Ye and Joan of Arc to defeat the famous Eastern Jin generals Huan Wen and Zu Ti, and defend Hefei.

Huan Wenwen and Zuti found that the main force of the Xuzhou Corps noticed the importance of Hefei, and knew that there was no chance to seize the Hefei, so he withdrew.

The Lujiang and Chai Sang troops attacked Hefei for seven days, with 6,000 casualties, and the army was shaken.

In order to block Huan Wenwen and Zuti's offensive, the Invincible Legion and the Servant Legion suffered three or four thousand casualties themselves, and the losses were also not small.

Yang Ye's Invincible Legion could still recruit supplements, but the Servant Legion could not be replenished in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

After the formation of the Servant Legion, after many battles, the number of people has shrunk a lot. Even if the main general Joan of Arc is almost killed, it can be regarded as bloodshed for Xuzhou Mu. Chu Tian also ordered Yang Ye to send scouts to peep over the Lujiang River.

As long as Shouchun is captured, the main army may not be able to attack Lujiang.

"Long look to Shu, Huai look to Jiang."

Chutian felt the greed of human nature, even if he himself was no exception.

If you conquer Longyou, you will want to enter Shu, and if you conquer Huainan, you will want to drink horses and the Yangtze River.

Although it has been raining heavily recently, because of Mulan's warm bed, Chutian's life is not bad, at least much better than the guards who are trapped in Shouchun City.

"My lord, the excavation of the river has been completed, and the water level of the Fei River has risen sharply. You can dig an earth dam to fill the city at any time!"

Mi Fang hurriedly came to Chutian and reported the results triumphantly.

"All armies seize the high ground and divert water to fill the city tomorrow."

The next day, Mi Fang excitedly led thousands of villagers to destroy the earth dam, Fei Shui roared, and went straight to Shouchun City along the excavated river!

The defenders of Shouchun City were having headaches due to the rain for the past few days.

Suddenly, the defenders of Shouchun City felt the ground shaking, as if a giant beast was approaching in the distance. They peered uncomfortably on the city wall, and the defenders outside the city had already withdrawn.

"Earthmovement?"

The defenders thought it was an earthquake.

Guo Jia's face changed slightly: "The Fei water is going to fill the city."

The rumbling sound is approaching, the flood destroys the trees and rocks outside the city, whirls and slams, and hits the city wall of Shouchun City! Floods beat the city walls,

The turbid water splashed onto the defenders' faces!

The defenders watched in horror as the flood raged and entered the city, and they couldn't help being horrified.

Although the flood would not make Shouchun City fall immediately, it did a serious blow to the morale of the defenders of Shouchun City. All the guards were apprehensive.

With no reinforcements outside, flooded inside, and soldiers lacking in fighting spirit, it is only a matter of time before Shouchun falls.

Hou Jing was drunk in the city, and the flood flooded into Shouchun City. Hou Jing was shocked and went to the city to defend himself.

"The power of the flood is really huge."

Chutian was stationed at a high place and witnessed Shouchun City turning into a swamp, which was also a helpless move. If the embankment is not broken, the siege will lose more.

However, the water attack was good for a while. After occupying Shouchun City, it was enough to appease the civilians and deal with the stagnant water.

Chutian can only appoint a prefect of Jiujiang to govern Shouchun and give him a headache...

Xu Sheng temporarily assembled a fleet to pass through the Huai River and enter the Fei River, and appeared outside Shouchun City, which made the Shouchun defenders even more panic.

"Chu Zimou thought that the city could be captured by flooding Shouchun, but he underestimated me, Hou Jing!"

Hou Jing forcefully recruited 200,000 men, and while draining the water, he continued to stick to Shouchun.

Within three days, thousands of civilians died due to overwork.

Hou Jing guarded the city during the day, and continued to be drunk at night.

However, Guo Jia had already started lobbying Hou Jing's subordinates.

The generals under Hou Jing's command were divided into two groups, one of which was Hou Jing's former troops, and the other was Yuan Shu's generals who were abducted by Hou Jing to Huainan.

On the fourth day of Fei Shui Guancheng, when Hou Jing woke up drunk, he found himself bound by Wu Hua, and not only Yuan Shu's generals, but also some of his old men were bound.

Hou Jing was instantly furious, and blue veins burst out on his forehead: "How dare you betray me!"

One of the generals said: "General, Shouchun is surrounded by many, floods flood the city, and the siege continues. Once the plague breaks out, no one in the entire Shouchun can survive. Sacrifice you alone, so that hundreds of thousands of people in Shouchun City can be saved. , why not do it?"

"Stupid! As long as we hold on for a while, Xuzhou Mu's army will definitely retreat due to lack of food, and we are still the masters of Shouchun!"

Hou Jing's eyes were fierce, and the general who betrayed him couldn't help feeling a chill in his heart, but he was still terrified of Hou Jing.

"Hou Jing, how does it feel to be betrayed by your subordinates?"

Guo Jia arrived under the protection of several Hu cavalry soldiers, condescending.

These Hu soldiers were originally used by Hou Jing to spy on Guo Jia, but at this time they were persuaded by Guo Jia to participate in the rebellion together.

"You didn't offer me a plan, but instead killed me. I hate that I didn't kill you that day!"

Hou Jing understood that most of his subordinates were persuaded to rebel by Guo Jia, otherwise they would not even betray him.

Guo Jia looked arrogant: "I persuaded you not to provoke Chu Zimou that day, but you didn't listen, why did you say I didn't make a plan? You didn't kill me, not because of your kindness, but because you were too conceited with yourself. "

"hateful……"

Hou Jing was deliberately provoked by Guo Jia and wanted to rush up to kill Guo Jia, but was held down by his generals.

"This thief has done a lot of evil, so he dedicated it to Xuzhou Mu."

Guo Jia got his revenge, and the depression in his heart was swept away.

"My lord, the Shouchun defenders offer the city to surrender!"

Chu Tian commanded Hua Mulan, Chen Qingzhi, Xue Rengui, Zhao Yun and others to supervise the battle, and was deciding to take Shouchun City in one go and win the most important city in Huainan, but Shouchun City surrendered voluntarily.

"Presumably the Fei water flooded the city, and people's minds changed."

"The last will go to investigate!"

Mi Fang volunteered and led more than a thousand soldiers into Shouchun, confirming that the defenders were not swindling.

The Shouchun defenders were attacked by water and had no fighting spirit. Almost all of them surrendered. Even if some people resisted, they were killed by their own people.

Hou Jing, who was in chaos in Huainan, was brought to Chutian by Guo Jia and several rebel generals.

Hou Jing knew that he would die, and he did not ask for mercy.

Guo Jia seems to be less than twenty: "Feng Xiao pays respects to Xuzhou Mu."

"I don't like to get Hou Jing and Shouchun, but I like to get Feng Xiao."

As usual, Chutian praised various talents.

Sure enough, Guo Jia, who was still a bit warm-hearted, was quite moved, and it seemed that Xuzhou animal husbandry was thirsty for talents.

"Hou Jing harmed Huainan, and the people were deeply harmed. Xuzhou Mu crusades Huainan and eliminates harm for the people, and considers it righteousness.

Guo Jia took the initiative to join Chutian. If it wasn't for Chu Tian leading the army to conquer Huainan, causing panic within Hou Jing, he would not be able to persuade Hou Jing's subordinates to defect anyway.

"Ding! The imperial advisor Guo Jia is loyal to you."

Chutian received a prompt from the system.

Guo Jia can be said to be one of the foremost advisors in the Three Kingdoms period.

The top advisors are actually almost the same. It is difficult to calculate each other, and most of them still have to rely on the strength of the lord to win. The richer the protagonist's family background is, the more room for them to play.

"Ziyun, Hou Jing will leave it to you."

Chutian handed Hou Jing to Chen Qingzhi.

Without saying a word, Chen Qingzhi drew his sword and beheaded Hou Jing. Hou Jing, who harmed Huainan, died so easily.

"Fengxiao thinks, how to deal with the surrendered generals in Huainan?"

After killing Hou Jing, Chu Tian asked Guo Jia to deal with the surrender of Huainan.

Guo Jia thought for a while: "Kill them all."

"That's what I meant."

Chu Tian was also not at ease about Hou Jing's surrender. Although they sacrificed the city and surrendered, they once followed Hou Jing in Pengcheng and Jiujiang County to burn, kill and loot, causing public resentment.

This time, Guo Jia took the initiative to offer the city to surrender. From beginning to end, Chu Tian did not promise to let go of the surrender. Therefore, the culprit must be carried by the staff member Guo Jia. Chutian is still a promise.

Guo Jia said a word, and the heads of hundreds of centurions and thousand commanders under Hou Jing fell to the ground.

The rest of the soldiers were all sent to the mines and became coolies.

There are many disciples of the good family in Huainan, even if Hou Jing's ** is not included, it will not lose much to Chutian.

Chutian got Guo Jia, and he was regarded as his staff, and he was trained together with Lu Su. Guo Jia and Lu Su are about the same age.

【Name】: Guo Jia

[Talent]: Imperial Adviser

[Level]: 31

[Identity]: Cao Cao's advisor in the late Eastern Han Dynasty

【Loyalty】: 82

[Commander]: 37 (up to 52)

[Army]: 10 (up to 11)

[Intelligence]: 89 (up to 97)

[Politics]: 70 (up to 84)

【Charm】: 75

【Phase】: Uninhibited

[Favorability]: 60

[Characteristic 1]: Ghost Talent (SS-level characteristics, high probability to see through the character of the opponent's monarch, high probability to see through the opponent's strategy, reduced probability of troops being ambushed, attacked by fire, lost, etc.)

[Characteristic 2]: Legacy Plan (S-level feature, three months before the end of life, intelligence +2, can be unexpected)

[Characteristic 3]: Heaven is jealous of talents (negative characteristics, easy to die early, easy to get seriously ill when marching for a long time)

Guo Jia's ability is indeed very strong, and he can easily see through the character and strategy of the opponent's monarch, but the characteristics of this "legacy plan" and "heaven's jealousy of talents" have a considerable impact.

This may be the real jealous talent in the legend, who can explode with 99 intelligence before dying.

If it is possible, Chutian naturally does not want Guo Jia to die.

A normal Guo Jia is enough to serve as a military division of a legion, there is no need to pursue the intelligence of 99.

Back in Xuzhou, he had to find a way to get the genius doctor Hua Tuo to see Guo Jia's illness. If it wasn't a terminal illness, Hua Tuo might be able to rejuvenate and eliminate Guo Jia's negative trait of "envy of talents".

Chu Tian counted the military advisors under his command, including Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Guo Jia, Lu Su, and in the future, Zhuge Jin, Zhuge Liang, and Cao Gu. Basically, a main army can be equipped with a top advisor.

For other forces, it is simply a luxury.

Which force can have such a large group of king-level and emperor-level advisors?

Chutian's lineup of advisors is equivalent to the lineup of advisors in the peak period of Cao Wei.

"Under Guo Fengxiao."

"Lu Zijing."

Two advisors, Guo Jia and Lu Su, served for Chutian and became the second generation of advisors. Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui were obviously older. As for Zhuge Liang, he was a third-generation advisor.

"Fengxiao, it's good that you are still alive."

Chen Qingzhi and Guo Jia once served as colleagues under the Jiujiang prefect. At this time, Chen Qingzhi and Guo Jia joined Chutian successively, became Chutian's subordinate officials, and became colleagues again.

Guo Jia's expression was a little gloomy: "I was too negligent, which caused the old master to be killed by Hou Jing."

"The old master trusted Hou Jing too much, thinking that if he rescued Hou Jing, Hou Jing would be loyal to him."

When Chen Qingzhi saw Guo Jia, he was very sad.

Chu Tian noticed that the friendship between Chen Qingzhi and Guo Jia was surprisingly good. Heroes from different dynasties seemed to have a new circle in "Lord".

Guo Jia should know a group of advisors in Yingchuan County. It would be great if he could use the relationship between Guo Jia and the Xun family to recruit Xun You and Xun Yu.

The Xuzhou Corps entered Shouchun, opened warehouses for disaster relief, and eliminated floods.

Chu Tian did not relax.

Guo Jia saw what Chu Tian was thinking and asked, "Could it be that the lord is not satisfied with Shouchun and Hefei?"

"Fengxiao knows me too. If I have Huai and look at the river, I will attack the Lujiang and sweep across Huainan."

Chu Tian did not hide his ambitions in front of Guo Jia.

For Guo Jia, an ambitious lord is more worthy of allegiance.

"Shu County and Wan County in Lujiang County are the most important, but the defenders of Lujiang County will be Huan Wen and Zuti. They are stationed in Shu County and are supported by the people, so I am afraid it will be difficult to capture. Hou Jing attacked Lujiang not long ago and was defeated by Huan Wen. In Shouchun and Hefei, people’s hearts are unstable, and if the attack on Lujiang fails, I’m afraid there will be repetitions.”

Guo Jia lived in Shouchun for a period of time, and followed Hou Jing to attack Lujiang. He witnessed Hou Jing being defeated by Huan Wen. He knew the situation of Lujiang County quite well, and dissuaded Chu Tian from giving up the capture of Lujiang County.

The reason is also very simple. Shucheng is to Tongque, the prefect of Lujiang, as Xiacheng is to Chutian.

Shucheng's people's heart is higher than 90. In the face of the attack of the Xuzhou Army, they will definitely swear to defend and scramble to defend the city. Even if Chutian spends several months, it may not be possible to capture Shuxian.

"Even if we can't defeat Shu County, my army can plunder the population of Lujiang County and enrich Hefei and Shouchun."

Chutian didn't plan to let Tongque's Lujiang County go. Even if he grabbed tens of thousands of households and migrated to Hefei, he would have earned it.

"My lord, Chen Yuanlong, the prefect of Guangling, recommended a person who thinks he can serve as the prefect of Jiujiang."

When Chutian was about to enter Lujiang County, the talents recommended by Chen Deng came to Shouchun.
