Chapter 405: Desperate Cao Zhen (II)
"Quick!"
"Quick!"
Cao Zhen took the lead, shouting anxiously and loudly in his voice.
Behind him, the army was heading towards the dense forest where Cao Shuang was at a frantic speed.
At this moment, Cao Zhen didn't care about any other thoughts.
He must rescue Cao Shuang at all costs!
Cao Shuang is not only his son, but also the successor he has been cultivating.
If you lose the city, you can get it back.
If the son is gone, he will never come back.
Impatience and anger almost engulfed Cao Zhen, and almost all he was thinking about now was Cao Shuang.
The army was like a dark cloud, directly rushing towards the dense forest where Cao Shuang was...
..
"Coming?"
Yu Ban looked at the sentry in front of him very excitedly and asked in surprise.
"Exactly, the other party is out of force this time!"
The sentry touched the dirt on his face, and his face was equally excited.
At the beginning, Yu Ban was still a little worried, he didn't know how important this Cao Shuang was to Cao Zhen.
But for now, everything is going according to plan.
As long as the other party comes, all this will be easy to do!
"Pass my orders, and the encirclement begins to shrink!"
The lieutenant general took the order, leaving only Yu Ban's eyes flickering and standing in place, looking into the depths of the smoky dense forest, not knowing what he was thinking.
....
At the same time, Wei Yan's army was also advancing.
Xu Tian handed over almost all the troops that could be shot to Wei Yan.
Including reinforcements from Wancheng and Xiangyang, all of them were given to him.
As he said, this time is the time for Wei Yan to show his skills.
"Hurry up!"
Wei Yan also took the lead, pointing ahead and roaring.
His expression was full of antiquity, and this opportunity was a dream.
Whether it is Cao Zhen, Cao Shuang, or Liu Bei, they are all famous figures in the world.
These people are all likely to fall into his hands now, how can this not make him excited and excited.
What's more, Yu Ban had already been preparing in front of him, and the other party was already several steps ahead of him.
If you don't hurry up, I'm afraid the credit will be the other party's.
It's like a huge gamble, and everyone puts all their capital into it.
Or, win a lot of money. Either lose or lose.
....
After less than two hours of frantic travel, Cao Zhen finally led the army to the dense forest shown on the map.
Standing in front of this dense forest shrouded in thick fog. Even Cao Zhen, who was eager to save his son, couldn't help frowning.
In this case, it is impossible to engage in large-scale battles.
In the dense forest, the army cannot be spread out, and it is also unable to exert its due combat power.
What's more, there is such a thick fog at the moment, and visibility is very limited.
As long as you rush in, no amount of troops will be enough.
Seeing that Cao Zhen began to hesitate, the deputy general stood beside him and was silent for a long time, and finally spoke.
"General, there is a plan below, I don't know whether to talk about it or not!"
"You've said it all, so what's wrong with it?" Cao Zhen squinted at the lieutenant general and said.
"Yes! In fact, the solution is very simple, as long as we put a fire here and burn the whole dense forest.
And then leave the only intersection that can be pulled out, so that we can wait for the rabbit! ”
The deputy general looked at Cao Zhen with hope, and in his opinion, his idea was seamless.
As long as they surround this place and light a fire, then whatever tricks they have inside, they can make their prototypes revealed.
It's just that what he didn't expect was that after Cao Zhen listened to his plan, he directly slapped him with a backhand.
"Idiot!"
Under this slap, only the deputy general's eyes were full of stars.
"Set this dense forest on fire, who can escape from the fire? Moreover, Cao Shuang was surrounded by people in the innermost, how did you let him out?
In the future, it's better to use your brain! ”
Cao Zhen was originally upset, but he didn't expect the deputy general to come to block him.
What is this plan called?
I don't know and think he's here to kill someone!
The lieutenant left with a sulky stomach.
In fact, from an objective point of view, his plan can be said to be the best.
Directly trap everyone inside, as long as your army is on the way.
As long as someone shows up, they can take it directly.
This is the most effective and straightforward method.
It's a pity that Cao Shuang is too important to Cao Zhen.
In his heart, neither Liu Bei nor Yu Ban is enough to compare with Cao Shuang.
After standing in place for a long time, Cao Zhen secretly made up his mind.
Go in directly, use the advantage of numbers to join forces with Cao Shuang, and destroy all the enemies inside.
Maybe if you're lucky, you can catch Liu Bei directly.
Now that he has made up his mind, Cao Zhen no longer hesitates, and with a wave of his hand, everyone is like Liu Bei and Cao Shuang before, abandoning their horses and entering the forest.
The army of nearly 80,000 was all scattered and went directly into the dense forest in an encircled posture.
At this moment, if you look down from the sky, this huge dense forest is like a sandwich.
From the very central position, layer after layer of armies surrounds it.
In such a state, the most aggrieved person is Liu Bei.
As the center of this sandwich, whether it is Cao Shuang or Yu Ban, they will not hesitate to rush forward with a knife when they see him.
Soon after Cao Zhen led people into the dense forest, Wei Yan brought people here as well.
As soon as he saw the terrain, he couldn't help but laugh.
According to the information sent back by Yu Ban, this Liu Bei was surrounded by Cao Shuang in the innermost.
And he surrounded Cao Shuang and Liu Bei at the same time, which was a larger encirclement.
Well, now Cao Zhen is here again, and he is doing the same thing.
The only difference is that the more people are outside, the more manpower is required.
The longer the circle, the more you need.
This is the truest portrayal of Cao Zhen at this moment.
His army of 80,000 is overwhelming outside, and the prosperity is earth-shattering.
When the march was made, it was miles away.
But now it is different, after entering the dense forest, his army is a small stone, thrown into the Yangtze River.
After just a small splash, it disappeared without a trace.
Cao Zhen led hundreds of people and slowly advanced through the dense woods.
Every step is taken with great care.
Now he regrets very much that he didn't listen to the adjutant general and forced them out with fire.
Because just after he led the team into the dense forest, it was almost a step by step.
So far, there have been dozens of people who have died in various ambushes.
Or he was killed by a giant tree that suddenly fell, or he stepped on the air and fell directly into a huge trap.
What's even more odious is that I don't know which god killed it, but it was filled with all kinds of hidden weapons in the dense bushes...
