"Humph!! This is so, the so-called people's hearts are unpredictable, the ghosts and gods have almost annihilated the entire Hebei Yuan family, how can Zhang Junyi not harbor some resentment!? But if we induce him to rebel, and the lord promises to be the pastor of Jizhou, he says that if he can succeed in retaking Jizhou, he will hand over Jizhou to him to govern. Let's ask this year, who will not have a little ambition, by its handsome like Zhang Junyi, I am afraid that he will not be willing to be subordinate, if this plan is successful, Jizhou will be chaotic, and then I will wait for Cao Jun to take advantage of its defeat and wounds, send troops to conquer, and will be able to take Jizhou!! ”

"Hey, don't say it, this plan is exquisite, I think it's a good try, but I don't know the lord..."

"My lord?"

But he heard someone shouting in the hall, but Cao Cao ignored it, and saw him staring intently at a wooden box that was open on all sides, on which was the head of a blood linlin. Cao Cao suddenly felt that his eyes were a little blurry, and his thoughts turned around, as if he had returned to that unforgettable night.

=========================================

On the Cao army camp more than ten miles northwest of Shouchun City.

Cao Cao was listening to the earth-shattering shouts of killing, and couldn't help but sigh, suddenly laughed, and groaned: "I know that this Yuan Highway is not so easy to deal with, if he is forced to a dead end, it is bound to fight back." This mourning plan is well used, it is used well, and the timing is excellent! It seems that our army is not sure to win, and you should not be careless! ”

I saw that behind Cao Cao, there were two amazing tiger guard generals standing Dian and Xu, followed by Xiahoudun and Yu Ban in the right row, and Jia Xu, Xun You and other strategists in the left row.

"Humph! That Yuan Highway is about to die, but now it is just a stubborn resistance, and the Pingyang Tiger is just crying, what is there to fear!? At the end of tomorrow, the iron-blooded army will be led again, and it will break through its troops and take down the head of the Yuan Highway for the lord!! When Xiahou heard this, his one-eyed eyes suddenly burst out with a terrifying light, shouted loudly, and strode out.

Cao Cao listened, but laughed a few times, but did not answer. Yu Ban was smart and knew that Cao Cao had no intention of attacking, so he immediately stepped forward and asked for his life: "The last general is also willing to fight, and secretly make arrangements, but if the Yuan army is in a hurry to attack and kill, the last general will wait for the opportunity to counterattack and break it in one fell swoop!" ”

Cao Cao heard this, but he only smiled and didn't say anything. Xiahoudun and Yu Ban saw each other, and they couldn't help but look at each other, and they didn't know what Cao Cao had in mind.

As the night breeze blew, it blew the brazier next to it, and several fires flashed. Xun You narrowed his eyes slightly, then he was shocked, and walked out and asked, "Could it be that the lord has no intention of fighting with Yuan Highway's soldiers and horses?" ”

These words suddenly made the faces of the generals of the Cao army change greatly, and now they have taken the initiative and won two battles in a row, but Xun You said such a depressing word, and the generals naturally did not like it. Just when Xiahou Dun's face was tense and he was about to drink.

Who knows, Cao Cao sighed softly: "Gongda really knows my mind, Yuan Highway's soldiers and horses are so fierce, it must be an unexpected move in secret." Now, if our army fights with it, the chances of victory are not great. And I can't afford to lose now. So I was scared. ”

Cao Cao finally whispered, and in an instant, it was like a plate of cold water poured on the heads of Xiahoudun, Yu Ban and other soldiers.

This is Cao Cao, who may have been in high spirits of battle at the last moment, enthusiastic as fire, inspiring the generals to fight, and extremely majestic. The next moment, it may be as calm as a dead pool, and the words spoken are even more unacceptably cold.

Why is it cold? But he didn't want the generals to fight for Cao Cao wholeheartedly, to expand their power, so that they would not be killed or injured, and they would succeed each other. But now, when he still has an advantage, Cao Cao told the generals that he couldn't afford to lose, and he was cowardly, which was not only an extreme blow to morale, but also colded the hearts of the generals!

But as soon as Cao Cao's words came out. Jia Xu smiled, and said suddenly: "Good cowardice!" The lord is also timid that the timing is just right!! ”

As soon as Jia Xu's words came out, he finally angered Xiahoudun. Xiahoudun stared at him, and immediately rushed out and shouted: "Jia Wen and you dare to make fun of the lord!? ”

"Hey, Yuan let Mo be impatient first." At this time, Cao Cao waved his hand, but he didn't even look back, still looking at Shouchun City in the distance, and said lightly: "What do you mean by Jia Wen and you?" ”

Jia Xu's face tightened, but he looked at Xiahou first, and asked: "Xu Dou dared to ask General Xiahou, Ruoer and other warriors are in full swing, and they want to fight the enemy for their lives, but the enemy is gone, what will happen?" ”

Xiahoudun was obedient, first frowned, then looked at Cao Cao, and saw that he was silent, before he looked back at Jia Xu and replied: "If this is the case, that person will not only lose his momentum, but also because of his strength, and even hold back internal injuries!" ”

"Huh." As soon as Xiahoudun's words fell, Jia Xu immediately laughed. At this time, Xun You, who had been pondering, also reacted, looked at Cao Cao's silent back with a little surprise, and exclaimed: "I see! The master's hand is really exquisite!! I admire it too!! ”

After that, Xun You did not forget to bow to Cao Cao respectfully. Xiahoudun was confused when he heard this, and asked anxiously: "Gongda, what do you mean by this?" What the hell is going on? ”

At this time, Cao Cao silently exhaled his breath and said unhurriedly: "You were the first to find out about Wen He, so it's up to you to explain it." ”

"No!" Jia Xu humbly first received the order, then shook his spirit, and said in a deep voice: "The so-called cowardice of the lord is just to withdraw the army to avoid the prosperity of the Yuan family's mourning army. In this way, the lord threw the problem back to Na Yuan Highway! ”

"Huh!? How do you say that!? Xiahoudun was shocked when he heard this, but he still didn't come to his senses, and asked anxiously. But seeing Jia Xu's eyes flashing with bright light, he replied again: "Yuan Shu's army is full of mourning soldiers, if our army is tough and resistant, it will be difficult to resist in momentum, so it is very likely to be defeated." ”

As soon as these words came out, a cold snort suddenly fell, which surprised everyone. Xiahoudun secretly glanced over, and when he saw the taciturn Dian Wei, an extremely vicious murderous aura gradually burst out on his body, and he knew that Dian Wei was extremely dissatisfied with Jia Xu's words.

"Although what I said will not be in line with the wishes of the soldiers, the war of the soldiers does not blindly rely on the soldiers to fight, and the strategy is often better than the thousands of troops. The Lord talks about his cowardice, but he wants us to understand that it is foolish to act by force and not to do it! Therefore, the cowardice of the lord is really great wisdom!! ”

Listening to Jia Xu's words, Cao Cao said that he was like a god, but Xiahoudun and other generals did not think so, and they all thought that Jia Xu was flattering. However, Jia Xu's next remarks soon made them change their minds.

"But I think that once our army retreats, then Yuan Shu will lead troops to cover up and kill, or will he not be able to defend it?"

"Naturally, it's to lead troops to cover up!! (Naturally, it can't be held!!) I only heard Xiahoudun and Yu Ban both subconsciously shouting. When Xiahou heard what he said, he immediately turned around, glared at the terrifying one-eyed, and shouted: "The Yuan Highway Military Department is now rarely mourning the soldiers, and the soldiers are all eager to fight to the death, so they can be lazy and miss the opportunity!? ”

"General Xiahou's words, it will be difficult to agree with the end!! If I were Yuan Highway, it would be the top priority of our army to keep Shouchun this time. The other army retreated timidly, but I didn't spend a single soldier, so why should I risk chasing and killing!? ”

"The other army can't hold out, if I wait for the momentum of his mourning to be discharged, how will it !? to return to battle?"

"The other army is anxious to cover up and kill, if I lie in an ambush in secret, wait for it to be exhausted and pursue, the momentum is weak, and the ambush soldiers are all out and kill them, then what !??"

only heard Xiahoudun and Yu Ban arguing, and when the two of them shouted this sentence in unison, both of them widened their eyes, their faces were full of horror, and they suddenly came to their senses.

"I see!!" Xiahoudun and Yu Ban shouted in unison, and hurriedly turned around and bowed to Cao Cao: "The lord is really a god!" ”

"Taking a step back is easy to understand, but when to take a step back is often the key. Now, I, Cao, took a step back, but I got Huainan. When Cao Cao said this, he slowly turned around, looked at the group of civil and military officials, and said with a smile: "Shouchun is already in my bag!" ”

At that moment, his vision was as high as Jia Xu, and he couldn't help but think that Cao Cao would become a peerless hero who swept the world and was in this troubled era!

No, it should be said that it is the overlord!

So, under Cao Cao's order, Cao's army, which had the upper hand, suddenly retreated. When Yuan Shujun's scouts learned about it, they hurriedly returned to the city to report. At that time, Yuan Shu was preparing for a decisive battle with Cao Cao tomorrow, but Cao Cao suddenly gave up the good situation and said that he would withdraw. This withdrawal can mess up Yuan Shu's original layout in one fell swoop!

Even Yuan Shu couldn't figure out why Cao Cao had to withdraw his troops and retreat when he had an absolute advantage!?

It's simply incomprehensible!!

"Bastard!! Cao Ah hides from you, a gallant mouse thief~~!! Seeing that Yuan Shu's face was full of madness and hideousness, his face was distorted terribly, and the ups and downs of the past few days had forced him to the edge of madness again!

"Lord!! The thief suddenly withdrew, but he threw the problem to us. At this time, whether our army is pursuing or defending, I am afraid that it will be extremely difficult. The only remaining opportunity at the moment is to immediately send a large army to pursue, and break it in one fell swoop while Cao's army is retreating in a hurry, the position is undecided, and the ambush has not yet been deployed!! Yuan Yi's eyes were red, and his face looked half upside down and half crazy. Seeing this, Yuan Shu was so angry that his teeth were cracked, and he slapped the case violently and shouted, "You are right!" Quickly pass my order, and order Ji Ling to quickly go to the pursuit, be sure to catch up with Cao Jun, and kill him by surprise before he is arranged!! ”

I only heard Yuan Shu's shouts vibrating in the hall, full of a sense of tension and persecution at the moment of life and death.

So, at the third watch of the night. In Shouchun City, the firelight was continuous, and the sound of killing was mighty, and I saw the troops killed by Yuan Shujun rushing like a flame dragon.
