Chapter 153: Wen Hou has fallen for Cao Gong's plan
Cao Cao frowned, "The Xuzhou army took the initiative to attack?" ”
"Exactly, my lord, look at it, our army is still more than ten miles away from Fanghe, but we found the scouts of the Xuzhou army, which shows that the cavalry of Xuzhou is wandering on the battlefield, and it is very likely that they are looking for traces of our army." Cheng Yu said, "The Xuzhou army is strong, and there are brave and good cavalry in the army, so it is expected that they will take the initiative to come to the confrontation. ”
Cao Cao nodded and said, "Since the Xuzhou army is so rampant, this official will teach them a hard lesson." ”
"The lord is wise." Cheng Yu said that Cao Cao was not weaker than an ordinary strategist in terms of leading the troops, and sometimes, Cao Cao only needed to be reminded to make the right response.
When the news of the battle between the two armies came, Lu Bu smiled and said, "It seems that our army is not far from Cao's army, and we will go all out to find out the situation of Cao's army." ”
"Whoa." Cao Xing hugged his fists.
Finding out information is commonplace for scouts, and their main purpose in being active on the battlefield is to find out the number and movement of enemy troops as much as possible.
In the early afternoon, the scouts came with the news that Cao Jun was resting ten miles away.
Lu Bu gave an order, and the cavalry quietly headed towards Cao's army.
The key is that the cavalry marches very fast, and there is not much time left for the Cao army to prepare, which is also the biggest advantage of the cavalry on the battlefield.
&; On the high ground, Lu Bu looked at Cao Jun not far ahead, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, Cao Jun is currently resting, it is the best time to raid Cao Jun, when Cao Jun does not react, nearly three thousand cavalry rush into Cao Jun, what a shock it will cause.
Just when Lu Bu was about to give the order to attack, Guo Jia said, "Gentle and slow." ”
"It's July, why is it so quiet ahead, beware of fraud."
Lu Bu's expression moved, if Cao Cao got the news from the scouts in advance, he would definitely take precautions, the cavalry did have strong combat effectiveness on the battlefield, but after encountering an ambush, the soldiers in the army would inevitably panic and their combat effectiveness would be greatly reduced.
"From Bonghyo's point of view, how to deal with it?" Lu Bu asked.
As soon as the words fell, a general hurried over and whispered.
Lu Bu nodded slightly, and after whispering a few words, he turned his gaze to Guo Jia again, "The scout just came with the news that Cao Jun's hidden soldiers were found in the jungle. ”
Guo Jiadao "Cao Cao must be using the resting Cao army as a bait to induce our army to attack, and the Cao army on both sides will inevitably make our army suffer, Wen Hou can send cavalry to seal the hidden Cao army, in this case, the elite cavalry suddenly kills, it will definitely cause serious losses to the Cao army." ”
"Okay, just take the words of filial piety." Lu Budao.
"From a humble point of view, it is best for Wen Hou to personally lead the cavalry to go, and then Cao Jun will not have more doubts." Guo Jiadao.
Lu Bu pondered for a moment, agreed, and personally led the cavalry to go, and fell into the encirclement of Cao's army, which was definitely a dangerous move, but what kind of person was Lu Bu, it was a fierce general who crossed the battlefield, and he had never seen any kind of scene.
Guo Jia also knew that his plan would definitely make Lu Bu dissatisfied, he was working under Lu Bu, and did not really decide to take refuge in Lu Bu, the monarch needs a strategist, and the strategist also needs a monarch, and the two sides also test each other, when the monarch's performance cannot satisfy the strategist, the strategist will leave without hesitation.
Lu Bu became a monarch as a military general, and among the princes, it can be regarded as a relatively special category.
After instructing Cao Xing, Lu Bu led a thousand cavalry to kill Cao's army.
The soldiers of the Cao army, who were resting, panicked when they saw the cavalry rolling in, and if they looked closely, they would find that although these soldiers were acting in a panic, they were gathering towards their respective generals, and those who did not know the truth thought that the Cao army was a well-trained elite soldier.
"A certain is Wen Hou, and those who descend will not be killed!" Lu Bu raised his halberd and shouted.
The shadow of the famous tree, Lu Bu's prestige among the princes, is a knife and a gun to fight, hearing Lu Bu's shout, seeing Lu Bu on the red rabbit horse, the Cao army soldiers are even more confused.
The cavalry, like a wave into the flock, killed the Cao army scattered and fled.
Just when the cavalry was ravaging Cao's army, rumbling war drums suddenly sounded on both sides, Cao Chun led five hundred tigers and leopards to kill from the left side, behind him was a dense Cao army soldiers, Cao Hong led five thousand foot soldiers to kill from the right side, for a while, the shouting of killing shook the sky.
"Wen Hou has already fallen for Cao Gong's plan, so don't get off the horse and surrender quickly!" Cao Hong shouted.
The soldiers of the Cao army, who were originally panicked, turned to kill Lu Bu.
Although Lu Bu is said to be a peerless general, as long as Lu Bu is trapped in the formation, can Lu Bu still be able to escape, this is a great opportunity to eradicate Lu Bu.
The sudden slaughter of Cao's soldiers on both sides made the cavalry's formation slightly chaotic, and they struggled to support in the formation, as if they would be broken by Cao's army in the next moment.
The cavalry, who was originally the master of the battlefield, wanted to get away from the battlefield in a short time, and it was not an easy thing to do.
When Cao Cao saw this scene, he laughed and said, "Now that Lu Bu has fallen into the official's scheme, as long as Lu Bu is captured, the Xuzhou army is not worried." ”
"The lord has no last resort, and the Xuzhou army will be defeated." Cheng Yu said with a smile.
Cao Cao said, "People say that Lu Bu is brave, but now it seems that he is just a reckless man, and he can be captured in a battle." ”
The surrounding Cao Jun soldiers, after hearing Cao Cao's words, showed excitement and captured the world-famous Wen Housheng, and the name of Cao Jun will surely resound all over the world.
Wenhou Lu Bu is a hurdle in the hearts of the officers and soldiers of the Yanzhou army, mainly because the Yanzhou army has failed too many times in the hands of Lu Bu before, so that when Lu Bu is mentioned, the officers and men in the army will inevitably be panicked, if Cao Cao captures Lu Bu alive in one fell swoop, his prestige in Yanzhou will reach a higher level.
Cao Cao couldn't understand what was going on, he was even imagining whether he could take advantage of the situation to absorb the Xuzhou army for his own use after capturing Lu Bu alive, and if he succeeded, he would not only be able to control Yanzhou, but also occupy the rich Xuzhou, forming a situation of confrontation with Yuan Shu.
The generals in the army hurriedly stepped forward to sing praises and virtues, and Cao Cao touted the uniqueness of the world and underground.
"Lord, something is wrong with the situation." Cheng Yu said suddenly.
Cao Cao hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"Lu Bu led the cavalry and fell into the encirclement of our army, but judging from the performance of the Xuzhou cavalry, it was not in a hurry to break through." Cheng Yuyao pointed to the Xuzhou cavalry road surrounded by Cao's army.
Cao Cao's brows were tightly locked, his mood was not as relaxed as Fang Cai, after a normal person fell into the encirclement of the enemy army, he would definitely try his best to get away from the battlefield, even if Lu Bu was brave and good at fighting, this could not be an exception.
