Chapter 329: Staggered
About the second watch, when the night was dark.
Zhang He and Cao Hongqi led the army to flee, and they must not return to the north shore at this time, the north bank fell into the hands of Cao Zhen and Sima Yi, and they would definitely be cleaned up fiercely, and there was no room to fight back.
The west side is a dead end, the north side is a dead end, and the south side is also a dead end.
The only way to survive is in the east, which is nothing more than a road to the southeast of Yunxian County, or the difference between wanting to go northeast in the direction of Xudu.
Zhang He wanted to return to Luoyang with the Chinese army, so he marched northeast and wanted to join Xiahou Shang and Cao Xiu.
Xiahou Shang and Cao Xiu served as the leaders of the Central Army and the Central Protector Army, and they had a high prestige in the Chinese Army, and the Chinese Army merged with it and could quickly reorganize and restore its combat effectiveness.
Cao Hong purely wanted to take the army back to his hometown of Qian Pei, and there were too many Yanyu people who migrated, so he stayed in Yun County at this moment.
Cao Hong wanted to go to Yunxian County to try his luck, whether his family would return to Yanyu with the sergeant, or whether the army would collapse and follow his family to Nanyang.
Regardless of whether the former or the latter, it is not a loss for Cao Hong.
As a result, the two Wei army groups, which were separated by more than 20 miles from north to south, began to move together, Cao Hongwei's army in the north moved to Yunxian in the southeast, and Zhang Hezhong's army in the south moved to the northeast.
When they met each other in the dark, the atmosphere suddenly became a little serious.
With a bow and a crossbow, the blades face each other, and a civil war may break out at any time.
Zhang He rode his horse to the front team, and Cao Hong also arrived, and the appearance of the main generals of the two armies did not alleviate the antagonism between them, and the rear array also began to move, preparing to fill the two flank battle lines and prevent the other side from purging military discipline.
Cao Hong's qualifications are deeper...... Only the Great Wei Zhongjun could not give Cao Hong face.
The two people who got together on the night of the Battle of Guandu met again in the dark at this moment.
In the past, it was gathered by fate, but now it is necessary to insulate and disperse.
There were many torches, and the scouts of the Han army on the periphery watched from afar, and Zhang He asked loudly: "Where does General Wei want to go?" ”
"On the order of the Great Sima, go around Ye County and attack Liu Bei's camp!"
Cao Hong also replied confidently, and he also had a ready-made military order in his hand, which was a military order issued by Cao Zhen and Sima Yi yesterday, ordering Cao Hong to bypass Yexian and attack Liu Bei's camp. Because of the fog and getting lost, Cao Hong couldn't go deeper.
This military order was transferred to Zhang He, Zhang He was quite speechless, and the left and right generals were even more relieved.
At this time, I heard Cao Hong shouting and asking: "Why did the right general raise troops to block the road?" ”
"Mistakenly thinking that the enemy army is coming, I came to rob and kill."
Zhang He sent someone to return Cao Hong's military order, still pulling his throat: "General Wei first!" ”
"Humph!"
Cao Hong caught Ling Wen, snorted coldly at Zhang He, and waved his hand: "Let's go!" ”
The chariot moved forward, and the pro-army of the subordinate was in front of the formation, leading the marching array to stride forward, moving faster and faster.
Zhang He looked at the Wei army of Cao Hong's department who were constantly passing in front of him, and saw that there were no baggage vehicles, no wounded soldiers accompanying him, and many sergeants had full grain bags wrapped around their waists, and couldn't help but sneer.
After the last broken guard left the sight, Zhang He looked solemn, looked around at the generals who came up and said, "General Wei has a second heart, now is not the time to pursue it." The Han army must have sensed the pursuit, and told each battalion to abandon the baggage vehicles, take only the dry food and equipment with them, march to Xudu, and join the general. ”
The last bit of dissatisfaction and guilt in everyone's hearts was also blown away by the cold night wind, leaving only happiness and calmness.
The road is not difficult to find, Zhang He has already made the worst plan, reiterating: "If the battle situation is not smooth, all armies and battalions will retreat to Xudu on their own!" ”
It is impossible to surrender if they surrender, and if they surrender, Great Wei will be finished.
Before the end of the Great Wei, the Qian Pei people who controlled Yecheng would not let go of their families.
On the north shore, Cao Zhen's camp.
Sima Yi fled in embarrassment and was so frightened that now the war trend is becoming more and more dangerous, and it is becoming more and more confusing to him.
He sat by the campfire and thought about the front and back, his sword crossed his lap, his index finger constantly tapping the scabbard with a clang, and his mind was in a mess.
couldn't help but glance at his son who was stunned looking at the bonfire on one side, Sima Shi was not very old, but he saw through Geng Jaw and Cao Hong's tricks at a glance, and recognized the biggest loophole of fake Tian Xin: Tian Xin's divine weapon did not appear, if Tian Xin died, how could he not grab the divine weapon he carried with him?
He will be suspicious, and he is happy to be inclined to Tian Xin's assassination, and he does not want this person to live.
emotionally and rationally willing to believe the statements of Cao Hong and Geng Jaw, half pushed and half responded to these people's statements.
But if Tian Xin is not dead and alive, then who is the most dangerous?
Zhang He is dangerous, Cao Hong is dangerous...... His friend Zhu Shuo is even more dangerous.
Now that Cao Zhen is holding more than 40,000 knights and waiting for the Han army to collide, how can he easily rescue these three people?
After a little hesitation, Sima Yi got up: "Prepare the horse, follow me to patrol the night!" Inspect the night ban of the Yanling Marquis' Department. ”
Sima Shi also woke up in shock, and looked at his father in surprise, this was to ruin Cao Zhen's arrangement.
If Zhu Shuo retreats with the army, then the most ideal battlefield will be invalid, and the location of the decisive battle will be changed, if it is not conducive to the cavalry rushing, wouldn't it be guilty of the temple? Unforgivable Sins?
If Zhu Shuo retreated, the two stronghold groups of the Han army's Dongqiao Battalion and Xiqiao Battalion would be able to block Zhang He and Cao Hong's retreat to the north, and these two corps would be eliminated and forced to land on the south bank of the river.
After the Han army calmly eliminated these two legions, there was no need to make any moves, and the cavalry under Cao Zhen's command might collapse on its own.
Therefore, the Cao Zhang's army controlled by Zhu Shuo could not retreat, it had to be nailed there, to keep the retreat of Zhang He and Cao Hong, it was necessary to attract the Han army there to fight, and then run in the direction of Luyang in a rout.
When the Han army pursued, Cao Zhen counterattacked with absolute cavalry superiority, which was enough to crush any Han army...... It is enough to crush any Han pursuer except the Beifu soldiers.
Now that Zhu Shuo is transferred, Cao Zhen shirks responsibility after the war...... Zhu Shuo wants to lose his head, and his own family will not be able to do well.
Zhu Shuo did it according to the plan arranged by Cao Zhen in order to survive, although it was possible to die.
To fight against Tian Xin, you must be mentally prepared for the death of the main general.
Sima Shi reacted quickly, and looked at Sima Yi with a pleading gaze, this is not something that should be persuaded as a son of man, and this kind of thing cannot be said.
He understands, and Sima Yi also understands, but Zhu Shuo is Sima Yi's friend, old partner, and colleague.
Could it be that he just watched Zhu Shuo being calculated, suffering a big defeat, or even dying in battle?
"Father?"
Sima Shi's voice trembled, and he prayed with a frightened gaze.
If the decisive battle is defeated, the one in the Luoyang Palace will be held accountable, and no one will end well.
The army on the south bank has been out of control, and now the corps of Zhu Shuo and Cao Zhang is the only controlled pawn, if the battle is avoided and retreated, then everything will be over.
Distress, deep distress welled up in Sima Yi's mind.
He slammed the helmet he had just lifted to put on to the ground, and the helmet bounced off and rolled into the campfire.
Sima Yi and Sima Shi glanced at each other, Sima Yi sat down in a gloomy manner, and Sima Shi comforted: "Providence is like this, non-human beings can change it." ”
"Hmm."
Sima Yi's mood gradually calmed down, and said: "When this shift from defense to offense, when the brake is quiet, the survival of the society is at stake, and mercy cannot be tolerated. ”
It can be regarded as self-comfort, Sima Yi's mood is much better: "This battle is dangerous, you take my secret letter back to Luodu." ”
It's okay to take your son out for a long time, if you let your son get involved in the fight...... His wife will definitely make his life worse than death.
