Cao Cao changed color, and in the big tent, Xiahou Yuan, Guo Jia, Cao Ang and others were all shocked and discolored.

"Tell me again!" Cao Cao didn't care about spilling wine, and drank loudly, and his voice had become hoarse.

The scout had no choice but to grimace and repeat the information.

"Su thief, you are really as insidious and deceitful as before, damn it-" Cao Cao, who was indignant, slapped the case hard.

At this moment, the long-lost sense of humiliation resurfaced in my heart.

Only at this moment did he understand why Su Zhe knew that it was useless, but he repeatedly sent troops to force him across Yishui, allowing him to win again and again.

It turned out that this was Su Zhe's conspiracy at all, in order to attract all his attention to the front line of Yishui, so that he thought that Su Zhe blindly wanted to force Yishui.

At this time, Su Zhe secretly sent soldiers and horses, bypassed his Yishui defense line by water, and went straight behind his flank to threaten Jicheng.

This is the wisdom of the head of the Nine Wonders.

Cao Cao, who was teased again, could not feel humiliated and angry.

In the big tent, Xiahou Yuan and the others were all shocked and stunned, and they didn't come back to their senses until now.

At this time, Guo Jia sighed helplessly: "I knew that Su Zhe was treacherous, it was impossible to deal with it so easily, and we could never underestimate him, but I didn't expect that we still fell for his tricks." ”

Cao Cao frowned and glanced at Guo Jia, thinking to himself Since you knew that Su Zhe was treacherous, why didn't you see through Su Zhe's tricks in time, and now you are saying this kind of afterthought.

Cao Cao's eyes rolled, but he suddenly burst into laughter, and his laughter was full of disdain.

Everyone looked at Cao Cao in amazement, thinking of how Cao Cao could still be in the mood to laugh at such a time, when there was a crisis in the rear.

Cao Cao put away his smile, but said disapprovingly: "Isn't Su Zhe just landing on the sea, I don't expect him to send too many soldiers and horses, it's just a few Ji light horses, I will now ride back to Jicheng with iron horses, annihilate his sneak attack soldiers and horses in one fell swoop, and tell him to steal chickens and not lose a handful of rice!" ”

The mood of the crowd stabilized.

Xiahou Yuan ignited his pride, arched his hand, and said angrily: "Lord, you give the order, I will lead the iron cavalry to the north and destroy Su Zhe's sneak attack soldiers." ”

Cao Cao didn't think about it, and said happily: "Xiahou Yuan listens to the order, I order you to lead 30,000 iron cavalry to the north immediately, and after destroying the sneak attack of the Su thieves, return to Yishui as soon as possible." ”

"The last general obeys!" Xiahou Yuan received the order and retreated.

Guo Jia frowned slightly, he always felt that Cao Cao's order was a little inappropriate, and he couldn't think of what was wrong, it seemed that in the current situation, he could only do it like Cao Cao.

"Su Zhe, I don't believe it, your plan is just a sneak attack at sea, what more poisonous conspiracy do you have......"

Guo Jia muttered to himself, lost in thought, but he couldn't figure it out.

That night, Xiahou Yuan led the Cao army's 30,000 elite light cavalry, roared away, and went straight to Jicheng.

South.

Cao Cao planted a large number of fine works around the Su camp, and Su Zhe naturally deployed many eyes and ears near the Cao camp.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Su Zhe had already received the news that Cao Cao had sent troops.

"Cao Cao really sent the main cavalry, Tong'er, it seems that you succeeded in luring the snake out of the hole." Su Zhe smiled and showed the information in his hand to everyone.

"I think that General Zhang Wener has landed in Youzhou and threatened Jicheng, otherwise Cao Cao would not easily send light cavalry north." Pang Tong said with a smile.

Su Zhe was not too excited, and only said lightly: "But to be precise, your strategy can only be said to be on the road to success, and whether it will work in the end depends on the performance of Zhang Liao and Wen Chou." ”

"I'd love to see the spectacular scene of heavy armored iron cavalry against light cavalry, but it's a pity that the battlefield is thousands of miles away and I can't see it." Pang Tong sighed softly.

Su Zhe's gaze fell on the north and muttered, "Wenyuan, my most elite heavy cavalry has been given to you, I believe you will not let me down." ”

……

Youzhou.

The three thousand iron cavalry regiments are running wildly along the road to Jicheng in the north.

"Wenyuan, let's walk another twenty miles at most, and we will arrive at Anci City." Wen Chou, who was familiar with the terrain of Youzhou, pointed to the road ahead.

Zhang Liao reined in the war horse, and then called for a map and examined it carefully.

"Anci City is here, it is the last city leading to Jicheng, the walls of this city are short, it is not a strong city, there should not be many soldiers and horses to garrison, at the latest in the afternoon, we should be able to take it."

Wen Chou pointed to the map and analyzed, his words full of confidence.

Zhang Liao stared at the map for a long time, but suddenly his eyes lit up, and he took out a bag from his arms.

Wen Chou looked curious.

Zhang Liao opened the bag, took out a secret letter from it, opened it and looked at it, and couldn't help nodding slightly.

Then, he closed his bag and shouted: "Pass my command, the whole army will stop on the spot, set up camp, and rest well." ”

When the order was laid, all the soldiers immediately stopped, camped and set up camp, and buried pots to make rice.

Wen Chou's heart was full of suspicions, and he didn't understand Zhang Liao's decision, especially for that bag, he was full of curiosity.

As soon as the Chinese military tent was lowered, Wen Chou rushed over, and as soon as he entered the door, he said: "Wen Yuan, we are only a few dozen miles away from Anci City, and it is not too late to rest after capturing there, why do you suddenly stop now?" ”

"It's naturally easy to capture Ancicheng, but what to do after taking it, Ziqin, have you ever thought about it?" Zhang Liao asked with a smile, with a bit of playfulness in his tone.

Wen Chou said without thinking: "Then do you still need to ask, naturally take a little rest, let the soldiers eat and drink enough, and immediately send troops to Jicheng, and after taking Jicheng, wait for Cao Cao's cavalry to come and die." ”

Wen Chou had heard Pang Tong's strategy with his own ears, and naturally knew that Su Zhe sent them to land at sea in order to destroy Cao Cao's light cavalry.

Zhang Liao asked rhetorically: "Ziqin, you know the terrain of Youzhou best, you should know that Jicheng is located on the plain, surrounded by a horse and a flat river, Ziqin Jue, even if Cao Cao's cavalry is led over to fight a decisive battle with us, we will win, but can we completely annihilate them?" ”

Wen Chou was stunned, rolled his eyes a few times, shook his head and said, "I didn't expect this." ”

He is also a Hebei cavalryman, and he is good at cavalry, how can he not understand.

The self-confidence of the two of them to win this battle is the super armor of the heavy cavalry and the invincible impact power.

With the strength of 3,000 heavily armored iron cavalry, it was enough to crush Cao Cao's 30,000 light cavalry in a head-on confrontation, there is no doubt about it.

But the problem is that the area around Jicheng is a plain, even if the Cao army's light cavalry is defeated, it only causes a certain amount of damage, and most of the scattered enemy cavalry can still easily escape.

This also means that the victory of the two of them is only to inflict damage on the enemy, but there is no way to completely annihilate the enemy's horse.

On the enemy side, after experiencing defeat, they will naturally see clearly the intentions of the Soviet army, so they will change their tactics and avoid a head-on confrontation with them.

In this way, the strategy of completely destroying the enemy's light cavalry will not come to naught.

Wen Chou, who wanted to understand the joints, couldn't help but nod and said, "Wen Yuan is reasonable, so what do you mean?" ”

Zhang Liao raised the bag in his hand: "Therefore, the Duke of Chu has thought of these for us a long time ago, and selected a battlefield for us in advance to annihilate all enemy cavalry, which is why I did not attack Anci City." ”

As he spoke, he gave the bag to Wen Chou.

Only then did Wen Chou realize that the bag turned out to be Su Zhe's secret plan for Zhang Liao.

He took the bag and couldn't wait to open the secret letter inside, and his face couldn't help but swell with deep amazement.

"Duke Chu is really a god, he is thousands of miles away, he has never been to Youzhou, and he knows the terrain of Youzhou well, it is incredible......"
