Chapter 757: Expect the enemy to regain victory
Hearing Su Ze's words, Liu Biao's body was suddenly shocked, indeed, why didn't Kuai Yue Kuai Liang mention this matter to him?
Su Zedao: "I've finished what I should say, and what to do about the rest depends on Lord Liu Biao's own choice!" ”
With that, Su Ze suddenly rose up and disappeared into the distance.
Huang Zu wanted to lead his troops to chase, but was stopped by Liu Biao: "Stop the pursuit of Cao Jun, the whole army will make a detour, and rush to Anzhong City at night, one will cut off Cao Cao's way back, and the other will be good for Cao Cao to attack Xiangyang urgently!" ”
Kuai Yue originally led the left army to intercept Cao Cao's men and horses, but suddenly sent an order to report that Liu Biao had ordered to change the route of the march, and he couldn't help but be shocked: "Who did the lord believe in the slander of the lord and did this to protect himself?" In this way, wouldn't it be necessary to let the tiger return to the mountain in the end? When will there be such a good opportunity? ”
The herald said: "The villain is also very confused, it is said that the lord listened to the words of a stranger, and made a decision to leave the pursuit of Cao Cao to Zhang Xiujun to do!" ”
Kuai Yue sighed and said: "How many men does Zhang Xiucai have, let him pursue Cao Cao, even if he wins Cao Cao, what is the loss?" What good is it for our army? ”
Liu Biaojun only bluffed, but did not pursue Cao Jun, suddenly relieved Cao Cao's pressure by half, although he had not escaped from the encirclement of Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu's coalition army, but at least the army could have time to rest, the whole army marched slowly, to the edge of the water outside Xiangcheng, looking at the turbulent river, Cao Cao suddenly cried loudly on horseback.
Xiahou and Xu Chu and other accompanying generals were shocked when they saw this, and hurriedly beat their horses to Cao Cao's side, seeing Cao Cao crying so much, where is there still a majestic appearance, they dismounted and held on to him and asked: "Lord, why are you crying like this?" ”
Cao Cao stopped crying, looked at the outline of Xiangcheng and the jade ribbon-like water in the night, and pointed it out to everyone: "At the beginning of the year, it was here, I lost the general Dian Wei, without him, how could I, Cao Cao, still stand here unharmed today?" Dian Wei, you died so miserably, but I can't even find your bones, if you know underground, how can I be worthy of you! Stop, I'm going to defeat the Dian Wei undead again! And the soldiers who died together! ”
Xiahoudun said: "Meng De, the chasing soldiers are still behind, now is not the time to cry and sacrifice, when Jingzhou is pacified in the future, it is not too late to worship the dead of General Dian Wei!" ”
Xun You also said: "Lord, worship is just a formality, General Dian Wei has a spirit in the sky, and he will definitely feel the sincerity of the lord!" ”
"That's it, I can't bother you anymore because of my impulse!" Cao Cao settled down and led the army to continue marching.
There is not much to go, and the Malay newspaper is probe: "Liu Biao's army has cut off the way for our army to return east!" ”
After getting the news, the generals of the Cao army looked at each other, and Xiahoudun said to Cao Cao: "Meng De, how can I hide the eyes and ears of Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu when I mobilize tens of thousands of troops?" Since they're trapping us, why don't we take the opportunity to fight him to the death? ”
Cao Cao shook his head: "I ordered the army to travel only a few miles a day, and I didn't know that the thief army was chasing me behind, but my plan has been decided, if I get to Anzhong, I will definitely be able to defeat Zhang Xiu, Yuan Rang, you can rest assured!" ”
Xiahoudun said that he would be skeptical, and the other generals would be even more so.
As soon as he arrived at the border of Anzhong County, sure enough, Liu Biao had already sent troops to guard the dangerous place, and Zhang Xiu also brought men and horses to chase after him, but because there were too few people and horses, he did not attack Cao's army immediately, but directly entered the city of Anzhong.
This naturally gave Cao Cao enough time to prepare something, he took advantage of the night to order the army to dig a dangerous road, secretly laid out the cavalry, after dawn, he was not in a hurry to break through, and actually sent an old and weak sick soldier to pass the battle.
Seeing that Cao had so few soldiers, Liu Biao and Zhang Xiujun didn't think much about it, and directly accepted the battle, leading the army out of the pass to fight, and those old, weak, and sick soldiers were Zhang Xiujun's opponents, and they withdrew one after another.
"Kill!" The Cao army in the tunnel had already recuperated for a long time, and when he saw the arrival of Zhang Xiu and Liu Biao's combined army, he shouted, jumped out of the tunnel, and launched a surprise attack on the other party.
"How could Cao Cao have so many people?" Zhang Xiu and Liu Biao looked at the Cao soldiers and horses crawling out of the tunnel, and were greatly surprised, so they had to retreat into Anzhong City to discuss the next countermeasures.
It's a pity that Cao Cao has already secretly run away at the time of this scuffle.
Zhang Xiu hadn't entered the city yet, but he saw that Jia Xu was already waiting there, and without waiting for Zhang Xiu to speak, he said to himself: "The general must not pursue the Cao army, otherwise he will be defeated!" ”
Zhang Xiu disagreed: "Cao Cao fled in panic, it was a good opportunity to pursue, why did Mr. say this?" ”
Liu Biao also led the army over, and when he saw Zhang Xiu hesitating, he wondered: "Why didn't the general chase him?" ”
Zhang Xiu smiled: "It's not that I don't chase it, I'm waiting for you!" ”
Liu Biao looked at Jia Xu and smiled at Zhang Xiu: "The general's military advisor is too timid, right?" If you don't chase it today, you'll miss the opportunity! ”
"Ahem!" Zhang Xiu looked at Jia Xu apologetically, and rode his horse to pursue Cao Cao with Liu Biao, leaving only Jia Xu sighing before closing the door: "If you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer in front of you!" ”
Sure enough, as Jia Xu expected, Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu chased for more than ten miles, and met Cao Jun, but they stole chickens and rice, and were defeated by Cao Jun. Liu Biao Zhang Xiu was amazed by Jia Xu's foresight, and praised one after another: "It's a pity that I didn't listen to Mr. 's kindness, so I had this big defeat." ”
Unexpectedly, Jia Xu just smiled lightly: "The lord doesn't have to regret it, now you can pursue the whole army again!" ”
Liu Biaozhang Xiu was surprised: "Mr. is laughing, right?" It's already been defeated, why chase it again? ”
Jia Xu said confidently: "If you pursue again this time, you will definitely win a big victory, and you dare to guarantee it with your head!" ”
"Believe in Mr. again!" After all, Zhang Xiu has been with Jia Xu for many years, and he led the army to go now, but Liu Biao was afraid of Cao Cao's deception and did not go together. also lied that he was worried that Jia Xu would escape, and that he would personally go to the prison to behead him.
Sure enough, a few hours later, outside the city, Zhang Xiujun's cheering voice was remembered: "We have defeated Cao Cao!" ”
Jia Xu looked at Liu Biao, whose face turned black instantly, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
After a while, I saw Zhang Xiu's men and horses returning with countless captured Cao Jun's baggage, Zhang Xiu was even more in front of the horse, with a beaming expression, and told Liu Biao and Jia Xu about the battle: "Mr. is a true god, I took the men and horses to chase the Cao army, and I was not vulnerable at all, and I fled all the way and scattered all the way, but unfortunately when I was about to catch up with Cao Cao, I was stopped by the people and horses who were ambushed all the way, otherwise I must have taken back Cao Cao's head now!" ”
Jia Xu listened, and smiled slightly in his heart, Cao Cao was too busy to take care of himself at this time, and it must be impossible to have the energy to ambush a group of men, it seems that it must be Gao Yi's masterpiece, and at this time, Gao Yi will achieve full success regardless of whether he attacks Cao Cao or Liu Biao Zhang Xiu, but Gao Yi did not do this, it seems that the rumored Gao Yi plans to concentrate his forces to take Hanzhong first is true.
Thinking of this, Jia Xu pretended that there was nothing on his face, and said to Zhang Xiu: "I have to thank the general a lot, if it weren't for the general's men and horses fighting hard and winning this victory, I'm afraid that Zaixia's head would have become Lord Liu Biao's appetizer at this moment!" Hehehe! ”
These words obviously meant something, Liu Biao couldn't help but be embarrassed, he always thought that Zhang Xiu, a strategist under the small princes, would not have any ability, and it was estimated that even one-tenth of Kuai Yue's talent would not arrive, and the last defeat of Cao Cao was just good luck.
And now, he finally knew that maybe Kuai Yue Kuailiang's talent might not be as good as one-tenth of the Jia Xu in front of him.
But Liu Biao still wanted to die to understand, he asked Jia Xu unconvinced: "In the past, we chased the retreating soldiers with elite soldiers, and the public said that we would be defeated; Later, General Zhang Xiu defeated the defeated soldiers, and the public said that Bike: what is known is as the public said. What is the truth about everything? May Komeike teach me. ”
Jia Xu had long known the doubts in Liu Biao's heart, and said without thinking: "It is not difficult to judge this matter, although the two are good at using soldiers, they are not Cao Cao's opponents. Although Cao's army has newly retreated, Cao Cao must have personally cut off the rear; Although the pursuers are fine, they will be defeated and sharp, so they know that they will be defeated. There is no mistake in attacking us, and if we retreat without exhaustion, it must be a domestic reason, and I have heard that Yuan Shao has a peep at Xu Duyi, nothing else; After breaking the general, the light army will advance quickly, even if the generals are left behind, but they are not the general's opponents, so although the defeated army will be victorious! ”
Zhang Xiu happened to feel at this time, and after listening to Jia Xu's words, he couldn't help but joke to Liu Biao: "How, Lord Liu Biao, with this think tank in hand, we are very sure of attacking Wancheng, right?" ”
Jia Xu was slightly stunned, attacking Wancheng?
He looked at Liu Biao suspiciously, only to see Liu Biao nodding heavily: "Well, since we have already arrived in Anzhong, we might as well go and meet our old friend Gao Yi, I heard that others are in Wancheng, this is called choosing a day is better than hitting the sun, right?" ”
Jia Xu narrowed his eyes, and couldn't help but sneer a little in his heart, it seemed that there would be a good show to watch soon.
The news that Liu Biao's army arrived in Anzhong soon spread to Wancheng, and in Wancheng, Wen Ping, Wu Anguo and others all asked Gao Yi to go out to meet Liu Biao, but Gao Yi had already sent someone to find out that Liu Biao's men and horses were just some miscellaneous troops, and they obviously had no sincerity to fight Cao Cao with Zhang Xiu, so they rejected everyone's willingness to fight one by one, and just taught their six-year-old daughter Gao Yue archery in their own home.
"Daddy, I shot, I shot the heart, look, look!"
In the backyard of Gaofu, Gao Yue excitedly pulled Gao Yi to look at his achievements, and saw that on the small arrow target, a wooden arrow shaft without an arrow was inserted into the red heart accurately, which made Gao Yi feel a little ashamed.
He gave Gao Yue a thumbs up, but his expression was still very serious: "Shoot well, but you can't be proud, in the future, when you practice archery, you have to make the target move, so that you can shoot it to be called ability, understand?" ”
