Let's say that on the day that the Liangzhou army broke through Chengwu City, Li Mu received the military information that the Cao-Liu coalition army retreated eastward.

Li Mu knew in his heart that the Cao-Liu coalition army would not dare to stay in Changyi City, and the enemy army would definitely retreat to the northeast or east, and these two directions had long been besieged by the Liangzhou army!

Li Mu was not in a hurry to pursue the Cao-Liu coalition army, but only sent a large number of Tanma and Fengying members to monitor the enemy's every move on the road.

The next day, when Li Mu, Ma Chao, Dian Wei and others, Shuai Long Xiang Cavalry, Vermilion Bird Cavalry, and Lion Legion arrived at Changyi City.

The city was left in ruins, leaving only tens of thousands of people; There were no soldiers of the Cao-Liu coalition army in the city; Those powerful families have long escaped without a trace.

This time, when the Cao-Liu coalition army retreated, they did not hold the people hostage, and the people not only did not flee, but waited for the arrival of the Liangzhou army with great expectations.

After going out of the list and clearing out the spies in the city, the Liangzhou army continued to advance eastward, seeking the direction of the retreat of the Cao-Liu coalition army.

Li Mu, Ma Chao, Dian Wei and others, the Shuai army passed all the way through Jinxiang, Kangfu, Rencheng, and Fan County, and marched to the first line of Bianqiu and Ningyang, thirty miles west of Lu County.

At the same time, Wang Ping led the Tiger Wing Army with 70,000 cavalry and marched to the Wenyang line north of Lu County.

Huang Zhong and Xu Huang led the 140,000 cavalry of the two armies of Tianfeng and Feibao to arrive at the line of Suxian and Pingyang in the south of Lu County and east of Yuxiang City.

Knowing the bad news that the Liangzhou army was besieging from all directions, Cao Cao was afraid that he would be broken by the Liangzhou army, so he asked Zhang Fei and Cao Xiu to lead the troops to withdraw from the line of Nanwuyang, Yuxiangcheng and Mengshan.

The Tianfeng and Flying Leopard Legions went north and were stationed twenty miles south of Lu County; The Qilin Army stationed in Yuxiangcheng and Nanwuyang, cutting off the southeastern retreat of the Cao-Liu coalition army.

Zhao Yun, Jiang Wei, Zhang Heshuai, Canglong, Wuqian, and Wuke three major army corps of 120,000 cavalry, soldiers out of Liangfu, Chengxian, Linle Mountain, marched to the east of Lu County 30 miles.

The 160,000 soldiers and horses of the Cao-Liu coalition army were stationed in two places, and all the way were stationed in the city; All the way to garrison outside the city of Lu County.

At this time, the five-way soldiers and horses of the Liangzhou army besieged the city of Luxian in all directions, blocking the water of the enemy army and making the birds sad.

………………

West of Lu County!

The Liangzhou army camp, the Chinese army's big tent!

"Lord, General Zhao, General Jiang, General Zhang, and General Wang are here......"

Li Mu, Ma Chao, Dian Wei, and Pang unified the others, and immediately got up and walked towards the tent with a smile on their faces.

"Big brother, lord...... Lord! ”

Li Mu and Pang unified everyone, and they just came out of the big tent, but they saw that Zhao Yun, Jiang Wei, Zhang He, and Wang Ping came hurriedly with laughter.

"No need to be polite, brothers have worked hard!"

Before Zhao Yun and Jiang Wei could give their salutes, Li Mu had already stepped forward; Ma Chao, Dian Wei, and Pang unified everyone, and they also stepped forward.

When everyone saw each other, they naturally had to shush and ask for warmth.

Everyone was talking and laughing......

"Big brother, lord...... Lord! ”

The hearty and loud voice came from behind Li Mu, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao and others.

When everyone looked back, they saw that Zhang Liao, Huang Zhong, and Xu Huang, who were in the dust, were coming in stride.

When everyone saw each other, they greeted each other again.

It turned out that Li Mu specially sent an order to Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, and Huang Zhong to discuss the battle strategy together.

After greeting each other, everyone entered the big tent of the Chinese army and sat down according to the order of their seats. Zilang literature

"From the first month of the army to the beginning of May, it has been four months in a flash, and time flies!

Since the Eastern Crusade of the Three-Way Army, it has been able to win successive battles, be invincible, and conquer everything, thanks to the unity of all brothers and the concerted efforts of the soldiers! ”

Looking around at the civil and military forces in the big tent, Li Mu's expression was full of solemnity, and his tone was full of solemn and loud voices: "Without the unity of all brothers, there would be no Li Mu today!"

I will replace wine with tea, and I will toast you brothers! ”

"Thank you for your reputation!

It is an honor for us to be able to follow the Lord's left and right, to help the Lord to determine the world fairly, and to be able to do our part! ”

Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Pang Tong, Huang Zhong, Ma Chao, Xu Huang, Dian Wei and others got up with teacups and said in unison.

"Brothers, don't be polite!"

Li Mu got up, drank all the tea in the cup, and raised his hand to signal the civil and military to sit down.

"Right now, the Cao Liu coalition is already cornered. The enemy's 160,000 soldiers and horses were stationed in Luxian town south of Surabaya and in the large camp north of Surabaya, in a vain attempt to form a corner. ”

Looking around at the civil and military forces in the big tent, Li Mu asked with a smile: "Do you have a good way to break the enemy?"

But seeing the look of their own lord, all the civil and military officials already knew in their hearts that their lord was giving them a chance to perform meritorious service.

Since the Liangzhou Army's five-way soldiers and horses gradually narrowed the encirclement, Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Huang Zhong, Ma Chao, Xu Huang, Jiang Wei, Zhang He and others have been thinking about a strategy to break the enemy.

"The county town of Lu is twenty miles away from the enemy camp on the north bank of Surabaya. Above Surabaya, there are three pontoon bridges for the enemy's troops and horses to travel on both sides. ”

Ma Chao, who had been thinking about it for a long time, said loudly: "Super thinks...... Our army can take a boat to the east in the upper reaches of Surabaya, first break these three pontoon bridges, break the momentum of the two enemy forces, and then divide the troops to break the enemy's two lines of troops and horses one by one. ”

Everyone nodded thoughtfully.

"What Meng Qi said is reasonable!

If our army raises troops to attack the pontoon bridge, the enemy's troops and horses will naturally divide their troops to come to the rescue. ”

Zhao Yunshen added thoughtfully: "At that time, our army can concentrate the forces on the north bank of Surabaya and go all out to attack the enemy's camp on the north bank.

If the enemy's camp on the north bank is broken, the county town of Lu will be like a turtle in an urn, and it can only be disposed of by our army. ”

If Ma Chao and Zhao Yun's suggestions are successfully implemented, the Liangzhou Army will naturally be able to break through the two lines of soldiers and horses of the Cao-Liu coalition army one by one.

The advice of the two of them can indeed be regarded as a good strategy to defeat the enemy.

"What Meng Qi and Zilong said is indeed reasonable!"

Pang Tong had a little smile on his face, although there was an uninhibited look in his expression, he was more determined, "But...... As far as the unification can see, the enemy army is afraid that it will not be able to fulfill what the two generals want. ”

"Please also ask Shi Yuan to make it clear!"

All the civil and military officers looked at each other, and for a while, before they could understand the meaning of Pang Tong, Zhang He hesitated.

"According to the secret letter from the members of the Wind Shadow, the thief Sima Yi began to offer advice. Moreover, Xun Gongda and Cheng Zhongde are not idle people, and they will be able to see through the intentions of our army.

As far as the unification can see, within one unit, the enemy army on the north bank of Surabaya is afraid that it will retreat south. ”

Pang Tong put away the uninhibited look on his face and said solemnly: "The enemy troops of the large camp on the north bank will either retreat to the shore of Surabaya; Either retreat directly to the south bank and defend only the south bank side of the pontoon. ”

Only then did everyone suddenly realize.

"My lord, the North Shore Prospecting Horse is outside the tent."
