Cangwu, located in Cangzhou, at the junction of Lishui and Yushui, its city tower is one zhang and nine feet high, it is the first county of Wuzhou.

At this time, the Jiujiang Army had already crossed Yushui and settled in Cangwu due to the defeat of Jiang County.

In the county government, Cao Cao and everyone really discussed how to defend the city, after the battle of Jiangxian, Cao Cao lost dozens of counties overnight, at this time the overall morale of the Jiujiang army was sluggish. But fortunately, Xu Chu, who was left to fight with Li Cunxiao, came back alive. As soon as the two ministers met, they hugged their heads and cried. Immediately, under the command of Cao Cao, after three days of marching, the large army of the Qin army was finally thrown away.

Subsequently, in Tianfu Mountain, Zhang Liang's strategy was used to successfully eliminate the vanguard of the Qin army, and the road was sealed with huge stones, forcing the Qin army to change its route and make a detour from Yinxian. Zhang Liang's plan also succeeded in giving the Jiujiang Army a chance to breathe, and then settled in Cangwu.

.........

Qin army, in the camp of the handsome.

"Zeping, now that Cao Cao has withdrawn into Cangwu, what should we do next?" Zhao Kuangyin asked.

"Lord, I don't think there's a need to worry, this Cao Cao and Zhang Liang are not idle! Cangwu is located at the intersection of Lishui and elm, and its turbulent water flow is stronger than the previous Sanjiangkou! Moreover, at present, our army lacks warships, and even light boats have only a few dozen. If you want to get through this Lishui, it can be said that it is difficult and difficult!

Even if our army can force its way across the Li River, with Zhang Liang's strategy, it is impossible not to set up a defensive line on the river. If our army crosses by force, I am afraid that it will suffer heavy losses! ”

After listening to Zhao Pu's words, Zhao Kuangyin nodded in approval.

"Yes, in the battle of Tianfu Mountain, this Zhang Liang ate more than 8,000 people of my Qin army with more than 3,000 people, and also made the road belly. Forcing our army to make a detour in order to delay the speed of our army's advance......" Zhao Kuangyin sighed, and the ambush battle of Tianfu Mountain came to mind. This battle can be said to be the first defeat since the Qin army started its army, and if it loses, it will be forgotten, but the family is more than 3,000 people, and they have eaten their own 8,000 elite horses. That's a bit of a loss.

"So, what do you mean, sir?" After Zhao Kuangyin was melancholy for a long time, he asked again.

"Marshal, I think that judging from the current situation, it is not appropriate for us to have a hard fight with Cao Cao. After all, this cangwu is just a small county town. ”

"Is it like this to be in a stalemate with Cao Cao? Now our army's grain line is too long to withstand consumption! Zhao Kuangyin said earnestly.

"Of course not, there are so many roads in the world, why does the marshal have to choose this road when he marches?" Zhao Pu said with a smile.

"Zeping, it's not that I haven't thought about the detour you said, but at present, out of Cangwu Road, other roads are more difficult to walk, but I'm afraid that even food won't be transported to the army at that time!"

"Yes, Lord Zhao Pu, the marshal's people have already gone to observe the terrain, except for the relatively flat road in Cangwu, the others are mountain roads, which are extremely difficult to walk, and even if our 200,000 troops take a detour, it is impossible for the grain and grass in the rear to keep up!" Standing aside, Li Cunxiao, who had not made a sound, spoke at this time.

"Hahaha! General Li is serious! I didn't say that I would make a detour for all 200,000 troops! ”

"Then how will this battle be fought?"

"Cun Xiao, in fact, the key to this battle lies with you!" Zhao Pu said immediately.

When Li Cunxiao heard this, he was stunned, and before he could speak, Zhao Pu said his thoughts.

"Filial piety! You are the best in the world in terms of force, and it can be said that you rarely meet opponents! Now, most of the Jiujiang Army is stationed in Cangwu, and its rear troops must be empty!

And the general of the Jiujiang Army, except for that Xu Chu, there is no opponent for you! ”

When Li Cunxiao heard this, he clenched his hands into fists and said, "Xu Zhongkang, he is indeed a fierce general!"

"So, I want you to bring 2,000 people to set up a sentry on the river while the Jiujiang army has just arrived in Cangwu now. Smuggled across the Guijiang River and attacked Cangwu - Yixing Town! ”

As soon as Zhao Pu's words came out, Zhao Kuangyin immediately laughed and applauded.

Li Cunxiao looked at Zhao Kuangyin, who was very happy, at this time, but he looked stunned.

"Marshal, military advisor, what kind of place is this Yixing? Isn't it the cangwu that we are going to take? ”

Looking at Li Cunxiao, who was stunned in front of him, Zhao Pu laughed and explained to Li Cunxiao.

It turned out that Yixing Town was an important town for Cao Cao's grain, and its location was ten miles by the Guijiang River. The distance between it and Cangwu City is not less than 80 miles, even if the Jiujiang Army wants to return to help, it is impossible to reach it without half a day.

This distance can be said to be not far or close. However, in half a day, even if the Jiujiang Army can come back to help, I am afraid that the grain and grass will have been burned to the core!

After Li Cunxiao heard this, he was eager to try the matter of smuggling the Guijiang River, and even asked Zhao Kuangyin for his life.

When Li Cunxiao asked for his life, Zhao Pu suddenly said: "General Li, you have to think about it, there are no reinforcements for this smuggling, if there is any emergency, you will be the only one to carry it!" ”

After Li Cunxiao heard this, although he knew the seriousness of the matter, he still asked Zhao Kuangyin for his life without hesitation, and asked him to lead people to raid Yixing.

When Zhao Kuangyin saw it, he was also overjoyed, so he directly allocated 2,000 people to Li Cunxiao. In addition, it crossed the curtain mountain overnight and went straight to the Guijiang River.

After Li Cunxiao left, Zhao Kuangyin smiled at Zhao Pu and said, "Mr.'s plan, I'm afraid it's only half of what I've said, right?" ”

After Zhao Pu heard this, he laughed and said, "The lord still understands Zeping!" The lord was right, Zeping's plan was only half said. ”

"This other half, naturally, can only be known by you and me!"

Seeing this, Zhao Kuangyin motioned for Zhao Pu to sit down and said slowly.

"Lord, this other half of the plan is to divide the troops into two ways and attack Cangwu separately to attract the attention of Cao Cao and Zhang Liang! In this way, the pressure on General Li's side will be much less.

The reason why I didn't tell him was because I wanted to inspire him to talk about life and death! After all, in the Cao camp, there is also Xu Zhongkang!

Moreover, judging from the current situation, there are many generals in our army, but there are very few talented people who are commanders. Therefore, I want to take this opportunity to exercise Li Cunxiao.

If this kid can survive, he will definitely be able to take charge of himself in the future, but if he can't survive, then he can only be considered unlucky! I saw Zhao Pu's face full of viciousness.

"Hahahaha! Zeping! Zeping, you're really getting worse! But how can we get through Lishui and attack Cangwu? However, after Zhao Kuangyin listened to Zhao Pu's words, he didn't care about Li Cunxiao's life at all, but laughed and asked about the way to break the city.

After all, Li Cunxiao is dead when he dies, and there are so many fierce generals in the world, it's a big deal to find it in the future. But now it's hard to find a handsome, if Li Cunxiao really has the qualifications of a handsome talent, that's also a good thing!

"Lord, this attack on Cangwu is not really to take him down in one fell swoop, but a feint. Only when General Li's side succeeds can we launch a real attack on Cangwu City! Zhao Pu said with a sinister smile.
