Chapter 304: The Fierce Battle of Wancheng in the Three-Front Battle (9)
"Huh?" A raging fire suddenly broke out in the city of Wancheng, which made Zhuge Liang, who was commanding the siege, also stunned.
Hehe, this Guo Fengxiao really lives up to his reputation as a ghost, in this case, he dares to use the method of burning the city to warn Cao Jun outside the city, reminding them that there is a change in Wancheng.
It's just that Zhuge Liang is a little disdainful of Guo Jia's approach, even if Wancheng is burned to the ground, can Cao Jun outside the city come back so smoothly?
Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan lightly, even if Xu Huang and the others learned that the situation in Wancheng was critical, what could they do?
In a short time, they can't come back!
Cai Mao's subordinates have tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, even if they stand and cut them down, it will take a lot of time to hack them all to death. Even if Liu Biaojun was suddenly attacked by surprise, it was not possible for Cao's army to wipe it out in an instant. Zhuge Liang estimated that until now, Cai Mao should still have about 20,000 soldiers under him.
If there was no such fire, the fate of the 20,000 Liu Biaojun would have been demoralized and completely lost, and they would have been eaten away by Cao's army step by step. But Guo Jia set fire to Wancheng, and the situation was suddenly different. This firelight can not only be seen by Cao Jun, but also by Liu Biaojun.
Knowing the changes in Wancheng will inevitably lead to diametrically opposite changes in the morale of the two armies outside the city, and the only consequence is that Cao Jun will be 'confused' and Liu Biaojun will be excited.
In this case, even if Xu Huang and Gao Shun intended to go back to the city to rescue, how could Cai Mao let them go easily? If Cao Jun insists on returning to Wancheng, as long as Cai Mao is not an idiot, he will inevitably lead the army to chase and kill, and then Cao Jun's losses are really not easy to estimate.
Therefore, in Zhuge Liang's view, Guo Jia's fire seemed to be clever, so that Cao Jun outside the city learned that Wancheng had undergone a sudden change, but in fact it was a faint move.
Without this fire, the Cao army outside the city would be able to annihilate Liu Biaojun sooner or later, but after seeing the fire in Wancheng, the morale of the Cao army plummeted and the morale of Liu Biaojun soared, Zhuge Liang did not think that the Cao army still had the possibility of defeating Liu Biaojun, maybe it would be defeated by Liu Biaojun, and even a rout was possible.
At that time, 30,000 Cao troops were destroyed, and Wancheng was captured by themselves, and the Cao army was really lost.
Perhaps, Guo Jia really has a bit of a dog jumping over the wall, after all, if Wancheng is breached, even if Cao Jun annihilates Liu Biaojun, it will be useless in the end, so he wants to gamble and hope for a miracle to happen?
It's a pity that there aren't so many miracles in this world.
"Order the whole army to speed up the siege!" Although Zhuge Liang was confident that the Cao army outside the city had no chance of successfully returning to help, it was always beneficial and harmless to capture Wancheng earlier. As the saying goes, there are many dreams at night, if the time drags on too long, maybe there will be something wrong, in that case, it will really be self-defeating, and it is definitely not the result that Zhuge Liang wants to see.
In addition, although it may not be 'sexual' high, if Cai Mao really fails to stop Cao Jun and causes him to return to Wancheng, then the matter will be very tricky.
At that time, the one who will be covered by the disaster is Liu Beijun, who is besieging the city.
This kind of thing is not allowed to happen under any circumstances!
Zhuge is only cautious all his life, and strives to do things without the slightest mistake, which is Zhuge Liang's 'sex' character.
Zhuge Liang thought for a while, then shook the feather fan in his hand, and a bright smile appeared on his face.
It's a bit old-fashioned, but it's better to set up an ambush. Even if the Cao army can catch up, it must be in a hurry, under the premise that Wancheng will fall at some point, even if the generals of the Cao army consider the ambush of the army, it is absolutely impossible to send scouts to investigate in detail and march carefully.
The number of ambushes does not need to be very large, after all, their primary goal is to capture Wancheng, and it is impossible to divide too many people out. However, in such a night, if two or three thousand people were properly ambushed, it was enough to plunge tens of thousands of troops into 'chaos', 'chaos' and vacillation.
———————————————————————————————— Xu Huang waved the big axe back and forth, fought a bloody way in the 'chaos' army, and rode his horse to Gao Shun's side.
"Changgong, how to kill Wancheng now?" As soon as he saw Gao Shun, Xu Huang immediately asked.
The question now is not whether to choose whether to return to Wancheng. Wancheng has changed, his army must go back to rescue, and now the most critical question is, how to kill back?
Xu Huang is also a rare general, so he naturally knows that the situation in front of him is extremely embarrassing, and he will bring the army back with his front foot, and Cai Mao will lead his men and horses to chase and kill him.
In this way, let alone rescue Wancheng, my 30,000 people may also face a catastrophe.
But if Wancheng is not saved, if Wancheng falls, the consequences will be even more unimaginable.
Xu Huang didn't know what had happened in Wancheng, but as soon as he saw the raging fire, he could obviously guess that the situation in Wancheng must have been extremely bad.
Although I don't know which way to attack Wancheng, Wancheng is the barrier to the south of Xuchang, if it falls into the hands of the enemy, the south of Xuchang will be in no danger to defend!
Gao Shun heard Xu Huang's question, and he was also thinking hard. He had the same worries as Xu Huang, and because of the advantage of the traverser, he could already guess that most of the changes in Wancheng were inseparable from Zhuge Liang.
If the driving force behind the Wancheng change is really Zhuge Liang, then the situation is really terrible, although Guo Jia is very intelligent, but he has never considered that there is a figure in the enemy army that can be compared with him, on the contrary, Zhuge Liang must have studied Guo Jia in depth. As the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent will not be defeated in a hundred battles, and if you have no intention of having a heart, you will inevitably fall into passivity.
Although Guo Jia's resourcefulness is no less than Zhuge Liang's, one is in the light and the other is in the dark. So it has to be rescued, and it has to be rushed back immediately. But if you want to withdraw the army, Cai Mao is an out-and-out big trouble.
The dilemma, the real dilemma, Gao Shun fell into a deep 'groan'.
"For today's plan, I'm afraid that the troops can only be divided into two ways, one person leads the troops to break off, desperately stops Cai Mao's pursuit, and the other leads the troops to rescue Wancheng." After stabbing an enemy soldier who tried to attack him in vain, Gao Shun told Xu Huang his final thoughts.
In fact, Gao Shun's idea is also full of huge risks. After seeing the skyrocketing fire in Wancheng, the morale of the soldiers of the Cao army has been extremely low, and at the same time, it has also led to a significant reduction in combat effectiveness.
The consequence of this is undoubtedly that both sides are not pleased, and the broken troops will be swallowed by Cai Mao's army, and the troops who rushed to the rescue are also likely to be defeated by the unknown enemy army when they arrive in Wancheng.
However, this is the only way Gao Shun can come up with at the moment.
In other words, at this time, there is only a feasible way, no matter who it is, even if it is a clever strategist, it is estimated that there is no other way in this situation.
In a desperate situation, there is only one way to go! If you don't succeed, you will be benevolent!
Xu Huang didn't think about Gao Shun's proposal for too long, so he nodded and agreed, after all, he couldn't come up with a better plan.
Of the 30,000 Cao army, there are now about 27,000 left, and the two finally discussed and decided that Xu Huang would lead 15,000 people to intercept Liu Biao's army, and Gao Shun would lead the remaining 12,000 people to Wancheng.
