Chapter 493, Surprise
"My lord, Cao Cao sent an envoy to see you!"
Kuai Liang is sitting in the house, the New Year is approaching, but he is full of sadness, not happy at all, just in the prime of life, the sideburns on both sides have climbed up like frost and snow, and the door is killed, no matter who this matter rests on, it is difficult to bear, not to mention that the blood sea of deep hatred can not be avenged for the time being, the whole Jingzhou is in turmoil at the moment, just to deal with the Jiangdong soldiers, it has already made Kuai Yue very sad.
"Who's coming?" After settling down and cleaning up his troubled and angry thoughts, Kuai Liang Chong asked casually.
"It's Cheng Yu!"
"Cheng Yu?" Kuai Liang hurriedly stood up, this person is not small, he is a highly respected staff member around Cao Cao, Kuai Liang hurriedly waved his hand, "Please!" ”
After a short time, Cheng Yu walked into the living room, Cheng Yu's face was elegant, his body was slender and long, his body leaned forward slightly, his cheekbones were high, and his eye sockets were deep, but his two eyes, not big and surprisingly shiny, his sharp eyes were scorching, as if he could see through people's internal organs.
Cheng Yu is 56 years old this year, but standing with Kuai Liang, there is not much difference, Cheng Yu's face is ruddy, full of spring breeze, and he looks very strong and tough.
After the meeting, Cheng Yu first bowed his hand, and comforted Lu Zhuo for slaughtering the Kuai family, and after the refreshments were placed, the guests and hosts sat down, and Cheng Yu entered the topic, "Brother Zirou, I came here this time because I have great news to bring a brother Zirou." (Brother is an honorific, not that Kuai Liang is older than Cheng Yu!) )
"Oh? I don't know what to say? Kuai Liang raised his eyebrows, looked at Cheng Yu curiously, but his heart was full of doubts, he really couldn't figure out what good news Cheng Yu could give him, not to mention, the recent disaster is not a single line, Kuai Liang does not think there is anything gratifying.
Cheng Yu took a sip of tea and said with a leisurely smile, "Brother Zirou should know that Lu Zhuo has sent a lot of soldiers and horses to Yanzhou, but my lord has already sent someone to investigate clearly, and now the entire Xuzhou army has been exhausted, Lu Zhuo dares to send troops rashly, it is just a bluff, there is no need to worry about it at all, now my lord will drag Lu Zhuo in Yanzhou, Brother Zirou can surprise the army to attack Xuzhou, Xuzhou is fertile for thousands of miles, it has been a place for soldiers since ancient times, but the fat meat sent to the mouth, don't miss the opportunity." ”
"What do you say? Xuzhou soldiers and horses are already empty? Kuai Liang hurriedly shook his head, "This is wrong, it must be that your intelligence is wrong, just the Nanhuai Pass guarded by Zhang Liao, there are no less than 350,000 soldiers and horses, how can you say that the army is empty?" ”
Kuai conscience sneered in his heart, "It's a good thing to say, you dragged Lu Zhuo back, I think this should be said the other way around, it was Lu Zhuo who blocked them, you are anxious now, you want us to help you, once we send troops to attack Xuzhou, Lu Zhuo will inevitably be distracted, it's really a good calculation." ”
Cheng Yu hurriedly shook his head, "Zhang Liao's side, there are not many soldiers and horses, it's just a trick, just like a pasty paper man, it will be broken when you stab it, and you can know if you don't believe Zirou if you try it." ”
The reason why Cheng Yu came to Kuailiang was because Cao Cao had received Xun Yu's reply, Xun Yu couldn't send troops to reinforce Yanzhou at all, Cao Cao had no choice but to send Cheng Yu to lobby Kuailiang and let him test the reality of Xuzhou, after all, Jingzhou soldiers had as many as 50,000 troops in Huainantun.
As long as Kuai Liang is willing to send troops, Lu Zhuo will inevitably be distracted, once Lu Zhuo retreats, the little Liu Bei will be just a matter of being captured by Cao Cao.
However, let Cheng Yu's mouth be as bright as a flower, he tried his best to speak and wear out the skin of his mouth, and he didn't say anything about moving Kuai Liang, Kuai Liang has always been calm and serious, and he will not take risks easily, now Jingzhou is worried about internal and external troubles, and he is fighting with Sun Ce, Liu Biao is sick and bedridden, and he really has no energy to continue the war against Xuzhou, and the troublesome things are one after another, the old ones have not been solved, and new troubles have to be added, this is not the situation that Kuai Liang wants to see.
Cheng Yu did not give up, and continued to persuade hard, and soon, the news of Cheng Yu's arrival in Huainan was discovered by the eyeliner of the military aircraft department, and the news was hurriedly sent to Zhang Liao.
"Wen Yuan, what do you want to do?" Gao Shun saw that Zhang Liao was reorganizing his troops and seemed to be about to send troops, so Gao Shun hurriedly asked.
Zhang Liao told Gao Shun about Cheng Yu's arrival in Huainan, Zhang Liao said, "The purpose of Cheng Yu's trip, it is not difficult to guess, it must be to instigate Kuai Liang to send troops, Kuai Liang this person, although he has been shrinking and has not used troops against us, but, in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, I want to lead the troops to break into the camp of Jingzhou soldiers, in this way, Kuai Liang will think that we Xuzhou will never be easy to provoke, this battle, we must use thunderous means to catch him off guard!" ”
Gao Shun said worriedly, "Aren't you afraid of backfire, such a provocation, if it angers Kuailiang, what can you do?" ”
Zhang Liao smiled coldly, and his gentle and resolute face swelled with strong self-confidence, "Don't worry, Kuai Liang belongs to Wang Ba, I knocked him hard, and he didn't dare to fight, he is not Kuai Yue, this person is honest and stubborn, and similarly, he is very timid, we do the opposite, and when we shouldn't send troops, we send troops, so Kuai Liang naturally can't figure out our reality and reality." ”
That night, Zhang Liao selected 800 elite soldiers (from 20,000 recruits, which was not easy for Zhang Liao at all. Fortunately, Zhang Liao knew that the enemy would never think that he would dare to send troops to steal the camp, even if it was 80 recruits, it could be used properly.
It was night, just after the third watch, the night was deep, there was no starlight at all, Zhang Liao suddenly led people to rush out of the pass, first slowed down, and after approaching the camp of Jingzhou soldiers, Zhang Liao raised his big knife and shouted like thunder, "Kill!" ”
Eight hundred athletes, down the mountain tigers, rode horses and galloped into the camp of Jingzhou soldiers with the momentum of wind and clouds, Jingzhou soldiers had no defense at all, eight or nine out of ten were sleeping in their respective camp tents, the sentinels of the patrol camp were rushed to the ground in an instant, the dead and wounded were not counted, Zhang Liao rode a horse and danced the knife, like a god descending to earth, the sound of horses' hooves sounded rapidly, where he passed, the knife light was like electricity, and a good head flew up one after another under the night sky.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack!" The Jingzhou soldiers were in a mess, running around, noisy and shouting, one by one like headless flies, and those soldiers who were awakened from their sleep ran out of the camp in panic and panic before they had time to get dressed.
Zhang Liao led people to rush around to kill, no one was his enemy, 50,000 Jingzhou soldiers were turned upside down by Zhang Liao's 800 people, the general Gan Ning was awakened, rushed out of the camp with a rub, the tiger's eyes were wide open, and soon locked Zhang Liao who was rushing to kill with a horse, Gan Ning roared, grabbed a war horse, and rode a horse to kill Zhang Liao with only a single coat.
