The Art of War says: Those who do not seek the overall situation are not enough to seek a domain. Those who do not seek eternity are not enough to seek a moment.

Since the battle of Lu Bu, Cao Cao's army of 200,000 has been broken with weak soldiers, relying on the overall containment and mobilization, and the east and west are encircled, so that Cao Cao has some scruples, and then he can break the face with a little bit to induce Cao Cao to walk into the trap carefully arranged by Lu Bu step by step, so as to seize Sili and capture most of Yanzhou in a battle. But in the subsequent strategy, it seemed too radical, there was no long-term plan, and one step at a time, which was taken advantage of by Cao Cao.

At this moment, Lu Bu finally joined forces with Gao Shun's Jizhou army, and his strength was much better than at the beginning, but Cao Cao had Cao Cao in front of him and Xiahou Dun hiding behind him, so he was really in danger.

Lu Bu convened the generals to discuss the future war, and said: "Now our army has advanced thousands of miles eastward, and even dozens of counties and counties, although it is unstoppable, it is also a lone army in depth. What do you think? ”

Gao Shun went south this time, full of ambition and was about to make a contribution, and immediately said: "Our army has gathered 100,000 troops, and it is coming with the momentum of wind and clouds, why not be afraid of Cao Cao, Xiahoudun is just a defeated general under me, how to worry about it." I am willing to lead an army to capture Dongjun and capture Cao Cao alive, as soon as Cao Cao is broken, the rest of the rats will naturally be captured, and the siege of our army will not be solved! ”

Lu Bu was greatly satisfied with Gao Shun's rhetoric, this enterprising heart is really rare, if the soldiers have the will to win, they will do everything possible for it, if the soldiers have no will to win, then the big things can not be done, the head of the chin said: "Very good, since you have such ambitions, and tell me how you want to capture Cao Cao's East County?" ”

Gao Shun was stunned for a while, he knew that Cao Cao was good at using soldiers, at this time Cao Cao experienced several defeats, Dongjun must be a high base and deep ditch, soldiers and horses are waiting for a strict battle, plus Dongjun has been operated by Cao Cao for many years, the city defense is far stronger than the general city, if you want to capture Dongjun is not an overnight achievement? It was just a momentary rhetoric, but at this time, it was really difficult to deal with it when he asked him to say a countermeasure, but he couldn't speak.

However, there is a military advisor Jia Xu said: "The prince and Cao Cao are good at attacking, at this time Cao Cao is defending to resist our army, I am afraid it is difficult to be comprehensive, Sun Tzu said: good attackers, attack their unprepared places." Cao Cao was well versed in the art of war, and naturally knew the shape of the prince's troops, so he would definitely divide his troops to garrison various important places, so Cao Cao's troops would inevitably be scattered. I am dedicated to the enemy, I am dedicated to one, the enemy is divided into ten, our army attacks one with ten, we are many and the enemy is outnumbered, how can there be no reason to win? ”

Tian Feng disagreed, and retorted: "Since Wen He knows that Cao Cao is good at attacking, he doesn't know that he will not attack my unprepared place, Cao Jian has to divide his troops to guard the important places, but the terrain of Dongjun is flat, the counties are dense, and all armies can help each other. Although our army gathers troops in one place and is strong for a while, if Cao Cao attacks my unprepared place with surprise troops, then our army will be beyond the reach of the whip, and what should we do? I believe that it is imperative to return to the army immediately to ensure that the rear is safe. ”

Jia Xu smiled and said: "Yuan Hao is too worried, Cao Cao is good at using troops, but now that our army is in the city, Cao Cao is still too busy to take care of himself, how can he still divide his troops to capture other counties and counties of our army, what he relies on is only to sneak into the rear of our army's Xiahoudun department, but Xiahoudun is only 20,000 horses, and our army has heavy troops in Guandu, Chenliu, and Zhongmu, how can he easily succeed?" It is now to attack Dongjun and break Cao Cao's main force is the most important thing at present. ”

Lu Bu saw that the two military divisions had their own opinions, one advocated attacking and deciding the outcome of the battle, and the other advocated retreating to ensure the fruits of victory.

At this time, Feng Ji, who was stationed in Chen Liu, reported an urgent military situation, and after Lu Bu looked at it carefully, his face suddenly changed greatly.

Seeing that Lu Bu's face was extremely ugly, the generals knew that something big had happened, and they each held their breath and waited for Lu Bu to speak.

Lu Bu handed the urgent report in his hand to Jia Xu, and then said: "Fengji came to the urgent military situation, Xiahoudun and Sima Yi converged, and lied to report the military situation, deceived Wei Yue to leave Zhongmu, and made a surprise attack on Zhongmu, which was empty in defense, and our army's grain and grass were burned. In the future, our army will no longer have food and grass to reach the front. ”

Jia Xu, Tian Feng, Gao Shun, Zhang Liao and others read the emergency report one by one, and their faces also changed greatly.

Gao Shun scolded angrily: "Wei Yue is incompetent, and he actually put our army in such a dangerous situation, which is really damned." ”

Lu Bu shook his head and said: "It was my mistake, I asked Wei Yue's wolf cavalry battalion to take care of the grain and grass, just because the wolf cavalry battalion was fast and good at fighting, I hoped that Wei Yue could find the enemy's traces as soon as possible, so as to avoid the disaster of being attacked by the enemy." Unexpectedly, the enemy actually saw through the reality of our army, did not enter the trap of Guandu, and tricked Wei Yue's army to go to Guandu, and took the opportunity to sneak attack Zhongmu successfully. ”

Tian Feng said: "The prince does not have to blame himself, Cao Cao will sneak attack the rear of our army, and attack the military rations of our army have long been expected by us, although the plan to set up the suspicious array was not successful, and was successfully attacked by Xiahoudun, but Xiahoudun was also intercepted by Chen Liu's Fengji, and under the pursuit of Wei Yue and Yang Xiu, the army was defeated and fled to Yuzhou. Although our army is worried about running out of food and grass, it is not facing the danger of the enemy. Why didn't the prince withdraw his troops in time to stabilize the rear, and also enable the army to avoid the danger of running out of food. ”

Jia Xu said: "The prince can't, although our army has temporary difficulties in supplying grain and grass, but our army still has the vast land of Jizhou to rely on, so Jizhou Thorn Shi Tianchou can immediately raise grain and grass, and rush to help our army from Wuchao, which can solve this dilemma." At that time, our army will be directed at Dongjun, and Cao Cao will be able to resist with his weak troops? ”

Tian Feng said angrily: "You are instigating the prince to make mistakes, our army has the advantage of strength, it is more important to act prudently, eliminate all unfavorable factors, how can you be greedy for merit, have you forgotten that in Runan back then, it was you who strongly advocated the attack, so that the prince was in a heavy siege, had to retreat and return, missed the opportunity to destroy Yuan Shu, and let Cao Cao take advantage!" ”

Jia Xu was said to be in the sore spot, when the battle of Runan was his accompaniment to Lu Bu, as a strategist in the army, the success of that battle was successful, and he and Lu Bu were even more frightened and retreated, which was really a shame in his life, at this time Tian Feng mentioned it, and suddenly said angrily: "At this time and that time, at that time, the prince's strength was limited, and the strength was far less powerful than Yuan Shu and Cao Cao, and now our army is at its peak, how can we talk about the same day, like you, look ahead and delay, delay the fighter, when will the ambition of the prince and the prince dominate the world be realized?" ”

Lu Bu saw that the two of them were arguing, if they were in contention, I was afraid that they would have to sarcastically mock each other, and then hurt the friendship of colleagues, which would be a fatal blow to the overall situation of stability, and hurriedly shouted: "That's it, you two are my right-hand men, everything can be discussed, how can you be like a shrew scolding the street here, don't you feel that you have lost your identity?" ”

The two of them rarely saw Lu Bu angry, and when they recalled what they said just now, they were a little confused. The generals had never seen such a big controversy in their own military divisions, and they all showed surprise on their faces.

At this moment, Wei Xuji, who was in charge of the city guard, walked in and hurriedly reported: "The prince is not good. ”

Everyone sighed in their hearts, there was already bad news that the back road was cut off and the grain and grass were burned, what else happened?

Lu Bu said unhappily: "You talk carefully. ”

Wei continued: "Cao Cao's general Xu Chu attacked our army's Wuchao last night, and the Wuchao guard was killed in battle, and the Wuchao has been captured by the Cao army, and now he is confronting General Xu Huang, the white horse guard. ”

As soon as the news came out, everyone gasped, and the hall was almost full of pins dropping.

Lu Bu didn't hesitate before, and stood up and said: "Everyone, the previous dispute is meaningless, and now that the black nest is lost, Cao Cao has stepped into the territory of my Jizhou with one foot, and the war will spread to our army, which is definitely not what I want, and the matter of retreating from the army will not be mentioned again." Now we have no way out, we can only break the kettle and fight to decide the winner. If you win, you will raise a glass and drink together, and if you lose, you will bury your bones in another country. The congregation will obey the order! ”

All the generals stood up, just waiting for Lu Bu's order.

Lu Bu said solemnly: "Yan Liang is the right general to contain Xiahou Yuan, the defender of Juancheng, so that he does not have the opportunity to support Cao Cao of Dongjun." Gao Shun led his troops and horses to retreat to Jiyin, cover the flank of our army, and sent troops to recapture Wuchao, and saw the opportunity to support our eastward army. ”

The second general bowed down to say goodbye and took the order to go.

Lu Bu ordered again: "Zhao Yun is the vanguard to lead 20,000 troops, go to Dongjun to sweep the battle first, remember not to attack the city rashly, if there is an enemy army to meet the battle, you can adapt to the situation." ”

Zhao Yun also took the order and left.

Lu Bu said: "The rest of the generals will reorganize the troops and horses with me, and tomorrow the third watch will rebel, and the fifth watch will go out to take Cao Caodong County." ”

The generals shouted in unison: "Swear to take Dongjun and capture Cao Cao alive!" ”

The next day, Lü Bu led a large army to attack Dongjun, with 50,000 soldiers and horses, all the way east along the Yanzhou Plain. Lu Bu looked at the endless flat land and sighed: "No wonder the Central Plains has been prosperous since ancient times, such a flat and vast land is able to nourish my Han sons and daughters, if it is peaceful and prosperous, there will be more people here to survive." ”

Yang Xiu said: "The prince is here to pacify Cao Cao, if he can win a battle, won't this Yanzhou be a peaceful and prosperous era from now on?" If the people of Yanzhou know the benevolence and righteousness of the prince and the marquis, they will welcome the prince and the marquis to break Cao Cao. ”

Lu Bu shook his head and said: "Cao Cao has the talent to govern the world, and the people of Yanzhou have inherited his favors, and they may not have good intentions towards us. Our army must remember not to disturb the people on this march, it is now the height of spring, and the seedlings are growing vigorously, you give an order, if there is any disturbance to the people and harm the fields, I will severely punish them. ”

After a day of marching, the army finally arrived in Dongjun, and Zhao Yun, who was the forward, had already stepped forward and reported: "Junhou, Cao Cao ordered the general Cao Ren to camp in front of the Dongjun formation, and dug countless deep ditches in front of the battle. ”

Lu Bu ordered the army to camp on the spot, and personally led more than 100 personal soldiers and a group of generals to check in front of the battle. Sure enough, I saw the towering city tower of Dongjun in the distance, and there was a large army building a camp to defend it two miles below the city, and several trenches in front of the formation were like a winding giant snake, stretching for several miles, and there was no end in sight.

Tian Feng saw the momentum in front of the battle, and exclaimed: "Lord, you see, this Cao Cao's use of troops is really unique, he is not only defending the city, but now set up a defense line outside the city, our army wants to break through, I am afraid that it will not work in a few days." Cao Cao did this, I was afraid that he already knew that our army was worried about food and grass, so he set up a heavy defense line and did not fight a decisive battle with our army, so that our army had to retreat on the grounds of lack of food. ”

Lu Bu nodded and said: "Our army will not carry military rations for more than ten days, and if you want to take Dongjun within ten days, what good strategy do you have?" ”

The generals were speechless for a while, Cao Cao is not an incompetent person, let alone a papier-mâché tiger, victory or defeat is still in a dilemma, not to mention winning within ten days, isn't it a fantasy?

Jia Xu said: "I have a plan, but Cao Cao has to go out to fight a decisive battle with our army." ”

Lu Buqi said: "Cao Cao knows the situation of our army, and it is his best choice to hold on and wait for the opportunity, how can he go to war easily?" Wen He has a clever plan, and let's talk about it quickly. ”

Jia Xu said: "Since Cao Cao knows the situation of our army, he will definitely be well prepared and stick to Dongjun." However, the art of war says: If the enemy is prepared in front, he will be outnumbered, and if he is prepared for the left, he will be outnumbered on the right. Why don't our army avoid the real and make a detour, and attack the giant field on the right flank of the eastern county, although the giant field is a small city, but it is the acropolis of the eastern county, rich and rich in grain, if our army takes the giant field, it can not only form a siege of Cao Cao's eastern county, but also get the grain and grass in the city, thinking that it is military, killing two birds with one stone, why not? Even if he can't capture Juye, if Cao Cao gets the information, he will definitely send troops to rescue, and then he will not be in harmony with the prince and the prince and fight with Cao Cao! ”

Tian Feng echoed on the side: "I think Wenhe's strategy is very feasible, Sun Tzu said: Those who are good at fighting will cause people but not people." Juye is the Acropolis of Dongjun, it is the place where Cao Cao must defend, if our army orders the army to attack, Cao Cao will send troops to rescue, this is the place that must be saved, drive it to do, and the way of the art of war. ”

Seeing that the opinions of the two military advisors were surprisingly consistent, Lu Bu was overjoyed and said, "Okay, just follow the words of the two military advisors." ”

Then he sent Zhang Liao to lead an army of 10,000 to raid the Acropolis of Dongjun Juye.

Zhang Liao received the order, ordered all the generals, and went straight to Juye City.

However, in half a day, a scout came to report: Cao Cao sent the general Man Zhong to lead the army out of the east gate and rushed to the help of Juye.

Lu Bu was overjoyed, and urgently ordered Zhang Jaw and Yang Xiu to set up a suspicious formation here, confusing the guard general Cao Ren in front of the formation, and personally led 20,000 iron cavalry to chase Cao Cao's reinforcements behind him.

Lu Bu was a cavalryman, and his march was extremely fast, and he soon caught up with the favored army in front.

Although Man Chong had expected that Lu Bu would come to stop him, he didn't expect Lu Bu to come so quickly, and in a panic, he could only set up a formation to meet the enemy, but he was only more than 10,000 people, and he was the opponent of Lu Bu's iron cavalry, and besides, in this flat wilderness.

As soon as the two armies engaged in battle, Lu Bu's iron cavalry was devastated, killing more than 10,000 Cao troops and scattering.

The infantry was originally a target for the heavy cavalry, and there was no way to fight back, not to mention that the number of iron cavalry was far more than twice that of the infantry.
