Wei Fang happily led Chen Qingzhi back to his military tent, and immediately ordered someone to send the steaming wine and meat that had been prepared, and greeted warmly, "I must be hungry for this night's travel." I have already ordered someone to prepare the wine and meat, put it on the hot pan, and wait for you to come back, so eat it quickly! ”

Chen Qingzhi picked up the chopsticks and said to Wei Fang with a smile, "Thank you Brother Yuanzhi, I'm really hungry, so you're welcome." ”

While Chen Qingyi was eating, Wei Fang said, "After you set off yesterday, I urged Cao Zhongzong to set up camp with the back of the army. The Wei army is menacing this time, and I am worried that it will be difficult to solve this battle quickly, and we have such a commander, so I asked to set up earthen ramparts and wooden fences around the barracks, in case the war drags on, it will also be conducive to the defense of the camp. You should have seen it when you came back, and now you're still stepping up construction. ”

"Well, Brother Yuan is far-sighted." Chen Qingzhi swallowed the food in his mouth, "It's always good to be prepared, after all, no one knows what the direction of this war is now." ”

"What do you think of the effect of this night attack?"

"It should have achieved the desired results. The Wei army was taken by surprise, and now they will definitely be afraid of our army and dare not venture easily. ”

"Great, originally I was against night raids, it seems that I was shallow." Wei Fang said with an embarrassed smile.

"What did Brother Yuan say, the night attack is a risky move, and success is naturally worth celebrating, but there is indeed a risk of failure."

"Anyway, you ran overnight and greatly demoralized the Wei army's forwards, which has to be admired."

"In fact, playing is also gambling, just like playing chess, if you guess the opponent's chess move, then you have to try, even if you risk being eaten a few pieces, but it is still worth trying."

"So you made the right bet this time, right?"

"At least for now, it is certain that the Wei army this time is by no means a rabble. The Wei army was in a panic when we first started the assault, but they quickly formed up and began to counterattack us, which shows that the enemy is well-trained and has a good fighter at the helm. Chen Qingyi said while burying his head in eating.

"Then do you know who the commander of the Wei army is this time?"

"The commander of the army doesn't know, but in this striker, I see some familiar faces below"

"Oh, who is it?"

"One is the commander of the Wei light cavalry that raided you here at the time, and apparently he has joined up with the forward troops; There is another one, who was in Shouyang at that time and led the army to relieve the siege. ”

"Shouyang?" Wei Fang asked in surprise, "The commander who led the Wei army at that time, did you see it?" ”

Chen Qingzhi nodded, "At that time, I was in Liuyangpi, trying to ambush us, and I designed to lure the Wei army to burn my grain and grass later, I saw it from afar, although I didn't know very well, but it should be a young general who is not very old." ”

"This person has some skills, he was building a city in Feishui at that time, diverting Xiahou Gong's attention, attacking the east and west, and seizing Li Pulp, which really made me and Xiahou Gong suffer a lot......" Wei Fang frowned.

"So the Wei army should not be underestimated, this battle will never be easy." After Chen Qingzhi finished eating, he put down his chopsticks, "I'm worried that Cao Zhongzong will be stubborn and rash the enemy now." ”

"Don't worry, Ziyun, I won't let him mess around!" Wei Fang patted his chest.

At this time, a sergeant came to report, "Enlighten the two generals, General Cao asks the two to go to the Chinese army's tent quickly." ”

"What kind of fame does this Cao Zhongzong want to do?" Wei Fang was a little impatient.

Chen Qingzhi smiled and got up and persuaded, "After all, he is the commander of the First Army and our commander, let's go, we still have to go." ”

When the two came to the big tent of the Chinese army, Cao Zhongzong got up with a smile on his face to greet him, "Imperial Envoy Chen has returned safely, and Ben Shuai is finally relieved." I heard that you broke the Wei army's forward, it is really gratifying, Chen Yu'an is brave and strategic, and the commander admires it. ”

"Breaking the enemy for the country is a matter of duty, and General Cao has an overreputation." Chen Qingzhi bowed down and replied humbly, "I don't know what General Cao told us to do?" ”

"Naturally, the two of you are invited here to discuss military affairs." Cao Zhongzong raised his hand and motioned for the two to take their seats.

"Since we sent our troops at the end of October, we are finally going to fight the Wei army. Now that the weather is getting cooler and colder, the commander thinks that if it is delayed for a long time, it will be unfavorable to our army, and we must strive to take the vortex sun and win the division before the winter snow comes. Cao Zhongzong put forward his own opinion.

"General Cao, I'm afraid this is not so easy......" Chen Qingzhi replied softly.

"According to General Cao's opinion, how can we defeat the Wei army and take Voryang?" Wei Fang asked with a gloomy face.

Cao Zhongzong glanced at Wei Fang with a displeased expression, and raised his voice slightly, "The Wei army is coming from afar, and our army is waiting for work, this commander is ready to put on a position and fight a head-on battle with the Wei army, and he will finish his work in one battle, the Wei army will be defeated, and the vortex will surrender without a fight!" When it snows, we can sit at home and enjoy the New Year's rice cakes. ”

"Head-to-head?" Wei Fang stood up suddenly, "General Cao, this is easy to say, but now that you haven't fully grasped the situation of the Wei army, how can you easily launch a decisive battle?" ”

"Besides, the Wei army will not necessarily fight." Chen Qingzhi also persuaded, "The Wei army came to relieve the siege of Wuyang, it should be them who are anxious, our army can wait and see the changes for the time being, sooner or later they will catch their flaws, and it will not be too late to break the enemy in one fell swoop." ”

Seeing that both of them objected, Cao Zhongzong smiled and said in a strange manner, "In this case, then Ben Shuai will listen to what the two of you have to say." ”

"I can't talk about Gao Jian, but I think that the top priority at the moment is to find out the strength of the Wei army first, and engage a few times in a small scale, at least to know yourself and your opponent." Wei Fang said loudly.

"Not bad. In the next opinion, the Wei army will not easily invest heavy troops to engage our army. Chen Qingzhi continued, "They will definitely engage our army on a small scale a few times to test our strength." So we have to be patient and not be caught by them. ”

"Listening to the meaning of the two of you, it seems that you want to take a defensive position?" Cao Zhongzong shook his head and said, "Don't forget, Your Majesty asked us to come to conquer the city. ”

"Offense and defense also depend on timing." Chen Qingzhi continued to say tirelessly, "The Wei army is definitely more breathless than us, so in this battle between the two armies, they must be the main attacker, our army only needs to stabilize and repel their attacks a few times, their morale will become more and more low, and their commander will inevitably be impatient, and when they show their flaws, then it will be our turn to attack." ”

"Okay, Ben Shuai has his own judgment in his heart. Please go back and rest. Cao Zhongzong raised his hand and said lukewarmly.

Coming out of Cao Zhongzong's big tent, Wei Fang complained to Chen Qingzhi softly, "Ziyun, what does this Cao Zhongzong think, there is still a head-on battle, his head is blocked by rice cakes." ”

"Hehe, don't worry, the Wei army won't fight him for a while, especially since we attacked their front army, they must be cautious now. But we can't be careless, don't let the Wei army take advantage of the loophole. ”
