Chapter 465: Smooth

In the chaotic army, the disadvantage of the Jingzhou army has been quite obvious, for Ma Chao's provocation, Zhang Fei did not evade, this person is the chief general of the Ming army, if this person can be taken down, maybe he can repel the elite cavalry of the Ming army.

Seeing Ma Chao rushing over, his eyes widened angrily, and he roared, before the battle started, the rough voice suppressed the hustle and bustle of the battlefield, and the Zhangba snake spear rolled up, stabbing towards Ma Chao like lightning with a whirling force.

With a bang, Ma Chao's thunderous shot was swept away by Zhang Fei's spear, and the moment both sides passed by mistake, they were all shocked, Zhang Fei felt the sour numbness from his arm, turned the horse's head to look at Ma Chao, and Ma Chao also turned the horse's head to look over.

Rival!

This is the thought that flashed in the hearts of the two at the same time, at the moment they were each shaking their spirits, fighting in one place, Ma Chao's gun was like a swimming dragon, and between the fierce fights, they were all fierce and domineering, Zhang Fei's power was infinite, and the eight snake spears in his hands were also very fierce and domineering.

The two of you come and go, unconsciously, they have fought hundreds of rounds, Zhang Fei and Ma Chao are a little out of breath, they are separated, Zhang Fei turned his head to see, the defense line of the Jingzhou army has collapsed, and if it goes on like this, he will definitely be surrounded, and then he pointed at Ma Chao and said: "Today's battle is not happy, fight again another day!" ”

After speaking, without waiting for Ma Chao to respond, he turned the horse's head and ran.

Hey~

Ma Chao sneered, who will change the day with you? Soldiers are not tired of deceit, have you heard of it? Besides, you are not a cheat, do you really think that you are a general in a war?

Seeing that the empty door behind Zhang Fei was exposed, Ma Chao grabbed a throwing gun and threw it at Zhang Fei with a shaken hand.

Zhang Fei didn't go far over there and it didn't feel right? When you look back? Seeing the scene of Ma Chao throwing a gun, he hurriedly swung his spear to push the gun away? roared: "The thief dares to plot!" ”

"Is this a battle between two armies? Could it be that someone is learning martial arts with you, a ring-eyed thief? Suffer death! Ma Chao grinned, and had already ridden his horse to catch up.

Zhang Fei didn't dare to continue fighting with Ma Chao at this time? Or else he really has to die here? could only speed up the horse and continue to rush forward, a Xiliang cavalry rushed head-on, and Zhang Fei dodged the opponent's cavalry gun sideways? Grab the other person and throw them behind him? At the same time, the spear in his right hand danced, constantly repelling the cavalry that appeared in front of him, and he threw it behind him in the same way.

Although Ma Chao wanted to catch up and take this opportunity to kill this person, he was surrounded by his own cavalry, which hindered Ma Chao's pursuit at this time? He can't kill all the way out like Zhang Fei, he can only watch Zhang Fei gallop across the country? After receiving two arrows in the crowd, he ran wildly and fled.

Count you as fast as you run!

After Ma Chao pursued for a while, he couldn't catch up with Zhang Fei? can only vent his anger on those Jingzhou troops who have no time to escape, after defeating these Jingzhou troops? Let the people choose for themselves to continue south or return to their hometowns? Naturally, there are other people on the road to arrange escorts and provide some necessary meals? Someone is in charge of these things, Ma Chao can't take care of them, and he won't, he would rather go to Zhang Fei to fight a few more battles, which will be more enjoyable.

"Who is that ring-eyed thief?" After defeating a force, Ma Chao remembered that he didn't seem to know what the ring-eyed thief was called, so he brought in a Jingzhou soldier.

"This person's name is Zhang Fei, and he is the master...... Liu Bei is a righteous brother and has the courage of ten thousand people. The soldiers trembled.

Inappropriate?

Ma Chao thought about it, this Zhang Fei's ability is really powerful, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is not an exaggeration, after silently writing down Zhang Fei's name in his heart, he continued to move forward with the people and horses, and after Danyang, it was a smooth road to the south, Guan Yu came to meet the people, and only then did he take Zhuge Liang and Zhang Fei back to Jiangling.

"Kong Ming, why are you so embarrassed?" Guan Yu looked at Zhuge Liang and the injured Zhang Fei, frowned and asked.

"Alas~" Zhuge Liang sighed and said: "The thief is huge, Xiangfan has not been able to stop it, and this Jiangling City may not be able to protect it." ”

"If Jiangling is lost again, this Jingzhou will be gone." Guan Yu frowned and said, he had promised Wuling and Lingling to Sun Quan before, in order to be able to block the Ming army, but now that they couldn't block it, they had no way to retreat.

"I have a plan, but I can break the Ming army!" Zhuge Liang sighed.

"At this time, Jiangling City is a new army, don't say that the strength is inferior to the other party, even if the strength is similar, I am afraid it will be difficult to stop the general trend of the Ming army." Guan Yu was a little unconvinced when he heard this, the most elite soldiers and horses in Jingzhou and the Jiangdong Army failed to stop Chen Mo, and now there is only a group of rabble that has just been recruited, how can they stop Chen Mo's army.

"As long as Chen Mo dares to come to Jiangling, he has his own plan for him!" Zhuge Liang hesitated for a moment, then sighed: "It's just that this plan hurts the heavens and peace, it's best not to use it, Yun Chang will wait for me to do a few things first." ”

"What?"

……

On the other side, as most of the people were recovered, the Jingzhou army retreated to Jiangling, Chen Mo and the generals had already come to the front line, and began to reconnoiter the terrain around Jiangling, before each battle, detailed preparations and surveys must be made, this is also Chen Mo's habit of fighting, north of Jiangling City, hundreds of miles away, Chen Mo frowned and looked at the sand table in the Jiangling area, silent.

"Your Majesty, why are you hesitating?" Xu Huang was puzzled.

"This sand table is not right, according to the height of these hills, this terrain does not conform to the trend of the leylines!" After Chen Mo pointed to the terrain, Chen Sidao.

"What's the matter?" Several generals were puzzled.

Chen Mo shook his head: "I should go and see it in person." ”

He didn't give a clear explanation, he just felt that the sand table was a little inconsistent with the data measured everywhere, and it was not harmonious, but he couldn't say what was wrong, so he had to go and see it for himself.

"Your Majesty, further south is the Jingzhou Military Territory, this ......" Xu Huang said with some concern.

"Don't move lightly after the army arrives here, today's Jingzhou army, as long as there are hundreds of elites accompanying them, there are some ambushes, and they can't trap us." Chen Mo shook his head, and immediately left the camp with Dian Wei, Xu Huang and a group of personal guards, and went to Jiangling to survey the terrain.

Outside the city of Gangneung, it is now a dead area, and most of the villages along the way have been moved.

Chen Mo and his entourage all rode war horses, but they never found the slightest scout in the Jiangling area, and there was a dead silence in sight.

"Your Majesty, Zhuge Liang won't be withdrawn, right?" Xu Huang frowned.

"If you don't evacuate, this piece is left to us." Chen Mo walked for a day, and he already knew some about the terrain in this area, and frowned.

"What does that mean?" Xu Huang was puzzled.

"What do you mean?" Chen Mo looked around and said: "The sand table is indeed wrong, the area of the general is relatively low-lying, but the territory of this area is vast, and this low-lying place is also gradual, and it is difficult for the craftsmen who make the sand table to detect, but if our army really arrives here, the enemy only needs to dig up the Han River or the river, and no matter how many people and horses there are, I am afraid that they will fall here." ”

"Zhuge Liang may not do this......" Xu Huang's scalp tingled when he heard this, if he really came like this, not to mention the annihilation of the whole army, but at least this time the south will be ruined because of this.

"Now the Jingzhou army is no longer able to fight against our army, and if you want to turn defeat into victory, it is nothing more than to borrow the power of water and fire, even if Zhuge Liang is unwilling, but now if you want to win me, there is only this way." Chen Mo shook his head and said, "Besides, as a general, how can you pin your hopes on the kindness of the enemy?" ”

"The last general is not wise!" When Xu Huang heard this, he hurriedly bowed and said.

"I don't blame you, but this is Zhuge Liang's chance to turn defeat into victory in the end." Chen Mo shook his head and said, "He can only do this." ”

"Your Majesty, if this is the case, how can we still attack the city?" Xu Huang frowned and said, now that you can't even get close to the city, how can you attack the city?

"The plan will be calculated, first send scouts to find out whether the enemy army is leading the water of the rivers around, and then send people to seize this place, first the other side will dig the embankment, pour Jiangling, and then our army will attack the city by boat!" Chen Mo smiled.

If this strategy is not guarded, it can indeed make people irreversible, but after taking precautions, this kind of strategy will become a sharp weapon in Chen Mo's hands, he wants to take this opportunity to pout Liu Bei's roots in Jiangling, Nanjun is under the country, Chen Mo's original goal of the expedition has been achieved, and then he is not looking at Jingnan, but going deep into Shu and attacking Liu Bei before and after Wuyi.

Liu Bei and Liu Zhang's opposites, Chen Mo has received the news, and at the same time, Chen Mo also sent someone to lobby Liu Zhang, hoping that Liu Zhang can return to the imperial court, as long as Wuyi can occupy Chengdu, keep Jianmen, Mianzhu, and Jiameng These checkpoints are not lost, and the soldiers and horses in Guanzhong can be sent in a steady stream, plus Jingzhou, if Jiangling is captured, Liu Bei will be in a situation where he will be attacked on both sides, and defeat will be a sure thing.

As Liu Bei's last foundation in Nanjun, Jiangling, Chen Mo is determined to win, digging water, whether Zhuge Liang finds it or not, Chen Mo has to use it, and judging from Zhuge Liang's current arrangement, Chen Mo is ninety percent sure that Zhuge Liang wants to use water attack to block himself from going south, in this case, what is there to worry about?

At that moment, Chen Mo led the crowd back to the camp and ordered Ma Chao and others to send cavalry to patrol along the river, and report as soon as they found signs of the Jingzhou army's construction.

As for why Chen Mo didn't go to find a suitable location by himself, it was naturally to save some trouble, after all, Zhuge Liang had been in Jingzhou for so many years, and with Zhuge Liang's character, the choice of terrain was definitely the most suitable, Chen Mo did it himself, not to mention the time and effort, and he might not be able to find a more suitable location than Zhuge Liang, in this case, why waste effort? Wouldn't it be better to have Zhuge Liang to help him.

In order to confuse Zhuge Liang, Chen Mo asked Xu Huang to lead the vanguard soldiers and horses to Jiangling to fight, and at the same time, Ma Chao and Pang De's two cavalry were on each other's side at the same time, secretly exploring the place where Zhuge Liang broke the embankment, like this for several days, Chen Mo's side did not move, although Xu Huang did not have many soldiers and horses, but Zhuge Liang did not dare to rush out of the city, Chen Mo gradually investigated, and finally found the place where Zhuge Liang secretly broke the embankment, and the battle of Jiangling was smoother than Chen Mo imagined.
