Chapter 435: The Potter's Gamble
The main force of the potter's soldiers and horses is about to drive to the realm of our county at this moment.
Due to the slow reaction to Cao Cao's move, Xuzhou's military preparations were more hurried, and the pottery merchants did not do their best to prepare for this trip, because there was not so much time to raise preparations, he only ordered the most elite troops under his command, the Xuzhou Army and the Jin Army, a total of 70,000 generals, and took Xu Huang, Xu Rong, Gan Ning, Zhou Tai and other generals to assist, and went straight to the western front of Xuzhou.
When there were still about 300 miles away from Wuxian County, the potter suddenly thought of something.
Do you want to lead the soldiers and horses to suddenly appear on the battlefield in our county so early?
Now he just calculated that Cao Cao would send troops to rob Yuan Yao and others with him, but with Cao Cao's treachery and ferocity, he would definitely not let the main force of his Chinese army appear so soon.
With Cao Cao's urine nature, he must have sent a general as a vanguard officer just like he sent Zhao Yun, and the main force of the Cao army led by himself was to wait for the change, and to respond to all changes without change.
After figuring this out, the potter was not in a hurry to march into the army, he found Guo Jia and told him what he thought, and asked him to help him refer to it.
After listening to the potter's words, Guo Jia didn't speak for a long time.
After a long time, he saw Guo Jia stand up and said to Tao Shang: "Guo has a calculation, but only fifty percent sure, if Guo's conjecture is right, then Cao Jun will return in vain, if it is not right, our situation may be passive, it depends on whether you dare to take a risk." ”
The potter's eyes blinked, and he said, "What is the calculation?" ”
Guo Jia got up and led the potter to the map in the tent, and said to him: "Among my county and Chaoqiu County, there is a valley, called Lu Valley, which is not accessible to the official road and does not reach the outskirts of the county, so it is not very important......
The potter seemed to have a surprise: "What do you mean?" ”
Guo Jia looked at the pottery merchant in a deep and said, "If Cao Cao leads a large army to the western front of Xuzhou to rob people, if Guo is him, he will definitely station troops here...... But if we change the route now and go straight to Lugu, in case Cao Cao is not there, Zhao Yun and Zhuge Liang on the other side of our county, we will not be able to respond, and I am afraid that we will lose the whole game at that time. ”
The Tao Shang clapped his palms lightly and said lightly: "But if Tao succeeds in blocking Cao Cao's Chinese army, then with Zhao Yun and Zhuge Liang's skills, in the face of Cao Jun's partial division, there will definitely be a way to maneuver!" Moreover, I also equipped Zhuge Liang with a battalion of sharp weapons this time, with his wisdom, with Zhao Yun's good fighting...... No matter which Cao general goes, he should be able to defeat it! When the time comes, the one who will gain nothing will be Cao Cao. ”
Guo Jia couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this: "A sharp weapon...... What is it? ”
The potter did not answer him directly.
He lowered his head and pondered for a while, then suddenly said, "Tell Xu Huang that the whole army has changed direction and gone to Lugu!" ”
Guo Jia was shocked when he heard this: "You really made up your mind?" This matter Guo is just a guess, in case Cao Cao is not there......"
There was a smile on the corner of the potter's mouth: "In case Cao Cao is not there, it's a big deal that I will lose Yuan Yao and the others who moved north to him!" There is always a little bit of risk in gambling...... Which person who seeks to win in danger, whose life is not all tears? ”
Guo Jia smiled bitterly when he heard this, and said, "I really convinced you, sometimes Guo Mou feels that your life is like playing?" ”
The potter snapped his fingers lightly and said, "Because I can have fun." ”
When Guo Jia heard this, his face changed suddenly.
I've never seen someone who can climb down the pole like this, and it's shameless.
……
The pottery merchant made up his mind to make a bet and completely handed over the battle line on the Wuxian side to Zhao Yun and Zhuge Liang, and he led the main force of the Chinese army to the north to meet the main force of Cao Cao, which he identified.
Zhao Yun is fighting the Huainan Army bravely at this moment.
Liu Pi, Gong Du and Zhou Cang's soldiers and horses were holding Yuan Yao's home formation at the moment, allowing Liu Xun to command the Huainan soldiers to fight with Zhao Yun without interfering at all.
Although Huainan's soldiers and horses are more than twice as large as Zhao Yun's, no matter how Huainan's soldiers attack, they can't defeat Zhao Yun's Dazhai.
It's just because the 10,000 soldiers and horses under Zhao Yun's command are all the elite of Jinling City, and they have already arranged defensive fortifications on the official road to defend and attack, so as not to let the Huainan soldiers cross the Lei Chi step.
Of course, the biggest headache for the Huainan Army was Zhao Yun himself and the Jinling White Horse Army behind him.
At the head of the city in Wu County, the soldiers who had been observing the situation in the distance passed the news to Zhuge Liang.
Zhuge Liang hurriedly climbed to the top of the city and carefully watched the situation on the official road in the distance.
Because Zhao Yun's Dazhai was set up some distance from Wu County, Zhuge Liang couldn't see the situation on the battlefield clearly for a while, and could only faintly hear the earth-shattering shouting and killing sound in the distance, as well as the sound of horses' hooves rushing back and forth.
Although the specific situation is not very real, through some subtle details, everyone can still see that Zhao Yun has the upper hand at the moment.
Seeing this, the officials in my county couldn't help but feel a little excited.
10,000 people beat more than twice as many enemies, and this is still the case, this Zhao Yunzhen is a famous general.
"County Zun, let's also go out of the city to pick up General Zhao!"
In the face of those eager county officials, Zhuge Liang did not lose his mind, he gently swayed the feather fan, as if he was thinking about something.
"Don't be in a hurry, the Huainan generals, General Zhao and his subordinates are enough to deal with it...... We are waiting for an enemy who has not yet arrived here. ”
Enemies who haven't arrived here yet?
Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, my heart is inexplicable.
Who will Zhuge Liang refer to?
At this moment, within the Huainan Army formation, more than 1,000 Jinling White Horse Army led by Zhao Yun were under his leadership, rampage, running back and forth.
Under the leadership of Zhao Yun, the Jinling White Horse Army rushed straight into the opposing army's large array with a strong impact.
Most of the Huainan soldiers were infantry, and before they could react and resist, they were overwhelmed by this stormy cavalry.
"Kill, kill, charge!"
"The Jinling cavalry is really hateful! How dare you despise our army in such a way! Everyone surround you from the flanks, don't let them escape! ”
"Come on!"
The screams came and went, and the shouts of killing shook the heavens and the earth.
Although the soldiers of the encirclement and suppression of the Jinling White Horse Army were in waves, but the tactics of Zhao Yun and others were too many and complicated, this light cavalry was not only good at using guns, but also good at using bows and crossbows, long-distance and close attacks, almost invincible, how many offensives of the Huainan Army were crushed by them, and they had to retreat one after another.
The Jinling White Horse Army attacked and killed in the Huainan Army, and the other Jinling Army was not idle, they attacked the Huainan Army from the front and periphery, and the cavalry and infantry combined inside and outside, almost crushing all of Liu Xun's layout.
In the face of such a difficult enemy, Liu Xun trembled with anger, but there was nothing he could do.
Yuan Yao, who was in the back, couldn't help but be a little timid when he saw his own defeat at this moment.
He was about to discuss with Liu Pi and others whether to withdraw the army for the time being, when there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves and shouts from the west.
Yan Xing and Zhang Ji's soldiers and horses assaulted at this time!
The scuffle begins.
