Chapter 1068: Cao Cao and Sun Jian retreated
Liu Ye stood beside him, thought for a moment and said: "Lord, the camp was burned, all the grain and grass were burned, and the food brought by the soldiers in the army was only enough for five or six days. ()”
After a pause, Liu Ye looked at Sun Jian and said in a deep voice: "King Wu, Wang Can led the army to attract the main forces of the two armies, and destroyed all the grain and grass at the bottom of the kettle, you should also think about it in advance!" ”
Sun Ce was angry, listened to Liu Ye's words, gritted his teeth and said: "Wang Can has captured Zhuge Jin, this revenge is not shared, the army is still there, and he will never go back." ”
Sun Jian nodded slightly and agreed with Sun Ce's statement.
Sima Lang shook his head and said: "King Wu, Wang Can has a cunning temperament, he learned that our army's grain and grass were burned, and he will definitely avoid fighting and continue to delay time." If the two armies stay for a long time, they will inevitably find themselves in a difficult situation. ”
With a turn of his eyes, Sima Lang looked at Cao Cao again, and persuaded: "Lord, although the prince led the elite soldiers to aid Wuyin County, the situation is unknown, once the battle situation in Wuyin County is also unfavorable, the army will be in danger, please think twice before acting." Immediately afterwards, Liu Ye and Man Chong persuaded Cao Cao and asked for the withdrawal of the army.
Full Pet wants to fight again, but the grain and grass are destroyed, the back road is cut off, and it will be even more dangerous to continue to be here.
For the sake of today, we can only retreat.
Cao Cao took a deep breath, a look of regret on his face.
Seeing this, Sun Jian chuckled in his heart.
Cao Cao said helplessly: "Brother Wentai, you and I joined forces to attack Wang Can, not counting one link, I didn't expect Wang Can to attack the camps of the two armies by surprise." We are all fighting long-distance battles, there is no supply of troops, no food supply, once the back road is cut off, the consequences are unimaginable, I am ready to withdraw to Yuzhou, return to Yanzhou. ”
After finishing speaking, Cao Cao let out another long sigh.
He is also very unwilling in his heart, but unwillingness cannot be a chance to succeed.
In fact, Cao Cao could not hesitate.
Sun Jian saw that Cao Cao was really leaving, so he persuaded him: "Meng De, the soldiers in the army have carried five or six days' food, and we still have the strength to fight!" If you retreat now, you will definitely fail. From the bottom of his heart, Sun Jian was reluctant to withdraw, he led a large army to attack Wang Can, wanting to reap benefits from Jingzhou.
However, as a result, he lost his generals and his advisers, and suffered heavy losses.
Cao Cao shook his head and refused, and said firmly: "Brother Wentai, I have made up my mind, and I don't need to persuade again." ”
Seeing Cao Cao's insistence, Sun Jian understood that no matter how much persuasion he had, he sighed: "Meng Dedu chose to leave, and it is difficult for me to defeat Wang Can if I stay, so I will also withdraw to Jiangdong." ”
Lu Su said: "My lord, if you retreat directly, I am afraid that you will be pursued. ”
Sun Jian asked, "Zijing, what is your opinion?" ”
Lu Su replied: "Su thinks that our army is retreating, so we should feint to attack Wang Can first, and put on a posture of a decisive battle with Wang Can." confused Wang Can, and then retreated overnight. ”
Sun Jian was disheartened and nodded directly in agreement.
Cao Cao glanced at Lu Su appreciatively and approved Lu Su's suggestion. If he retreats directly, Wang Can will definitely turn around and pursue, and when the time comes, he will be chased and beaten by Wang Can, and he will lose his soldiers.
On the same day, Sun Jian and Cao Cao led a large army to pursue Wang Can, posing for a decisive battle.
Wang Can didn't know the true intentions of Cao Cao and Sun Jian, so everything went on as usual and continued to lead the soldiers to retreat.
After nightfall, Wang Can's army stopped to rest.
Wang Can opened his mouth and said: "Cao Cao and Sun Jian's camp has been burned down, and the grain and grass are all missing, and they are still chasing and fighting, do you want to fight to the death?" Wang Can picked up a piece of wooden stick and threw it into the fire, his face contemplative. According to Wang Can's opinion, Cao Cao and Sun Jian should immediately retreat when they heard the news that the camp had been burned.
Cao Cao and Sun Jian blindly attacked, and it was completely desperate.
Pang De smiled and said: "Lord, no matter what Cao Cao and Sun Jian do, as long as we delay for a few more days, Cao Cao and Sun Jian's soldiers have no food, we can launch a counterattack and kill them directly." ”
Wang Can smiled and said, "Ling Ming, your stupid method is not bad!" After a while, Wang Can said, "Rest early, there will be a big war tomorrow." Wang Can listened to Pang De's words, so he didn't think about the doubts in his heart.
After dawn, Cao Cao and Sun Jian did not move at all.
Early yesterday morning, Cao Cao and Sun Jian had already led their troops to kill them, but now there was no movement. Wang Can had doubts in his heart, and found the scout who came to inquire about the news, and asked, "What is the movement between Cao Cao and Wang Can?" ”
The scout shook his head and said, "There is no change, the camp built by the Wei-Wu coalition army is still as calm as ever. ”
Wang Can felt that something was wrong, and muttered to himself: "Something is wrong, something is wrong!" ”
"Pound!" Wang Canxin immediately brought Pang De over.
Pang De ran to Wang Can in three or two steps, clasped his fists and said, "Lord, what do you command?" ”
Wang Can ordered: "Immediately gather a thousand elite soldiers, and you go with me to Cao Cao and Sun Jian's camp to test the situation." ”
"No!"
Pound clenched his fists and immediately went to carry out the order.
Wang Can arranged the affairs of the army, let the generals in the army take care of the soldiers, and rushed to the improvised camp of Cao Cao and Sun Ce with Pang De and Dian Wei. When Wang Can arrived with his troops, the camp of the Wei and Wu armies was empty, and it had become an empty camp. Wang Can thought about it and immediately understood the situation.
Obviously, both Cao Cao and Sun Jian withdrew overnight.
The scouts who sniffed out the news watched from a distance, not knowing what was going on, so the camp didn't change. Wang Can dispersed the scouts and immediately tracked down the movements of Cao Cao and Sun Jian's army. Half a day later, the scouts finally sent back the news that Cao Cao and Sun Jian had indeed retreated with their soldiers, and they all returned to their respective homes and quickly retreated.
At this point, Wang Can also breathed a sigh of relief.
The land of Jingxiang can be regarded as in the hands.
……
Wuyin County, thirty miles south of the city.
Cao Ang and Xu Huang led 3,000 elite soldiers to arrive and entered the territory of Wuyin County.
Xu Huang rode on a horse, holding a long-handled axe in his hand, and followed Cao Ang. Xu Huang still admires Cao Ang, the son of the world, who can not only fight on horseback, but also govern state affairs.
Cao Ang looked at Xu Huang and said, "General Xu, let's go to Wuyin County, do you notice something weird?" ”
Xu Huang asked, "Shizi, have you found anything?" ”
Cao Ang said solemnly: "When we rushed to the aid of Wuyin County, we had already received news that Zhang Liao led troops to attack Wuyin County, but we led 3,000 elite soldiers into the boundary of Wuyin County, but we did not hear a little news of Zhang Liao's siege of the city, could it be that Zhang Liao feinted to attack Wuyin County?" I think this one might be small. ”
Xu Huang raised his eyebrows, a trace of worry flashed on his face, and said, "Shizi, what do you mean?" ”
At this time, Xu Huang also cheered up, with a serious look on his face.
There are some things that he can't help but think about.
Cao Ang nodded and said, "Although that is only one of the possibilities, it cannot be ruled out. In short, let's be a little careful not to let Zhang Liao catch the empty gear. ”
"Childe is wise!"
Xu Huang responded with his fists clenched, and he was also vigilant in his heart.
……
In the county seat, in the county government.
Zhang Liao's golden sword sat on the horse, his face showing joy, because the news that Cao Ang and Xu Huang had led the troops to arrive had already come back, and when Cao Ang entered the city, he would definitely be able to defeat Cao Ang in one fell swoop.
If Cao Ang and Xu Huang are captured again, it will be even more perfect.
Zhang Liao looked at the county magistrate of Wuyin County, who was standing down, and said in a deep voice: "Cao Cao and Xu Huang are here, and now it's time for you to perform, as long as you trick Cao Ang into the city, you can immediately make a great contribution." If things go wrong, you should know the consequences. After finishing speaking, Zhang Liao stood up, waved his hand and said, "Let's go, let's go to the city tower to meet Cao Ang." ”
"No!"
The county order of Wuyin County agreed, and followed Zhang Liao tremblingly.
