Chapter 563: Cao Cao's Crow's Beak
It's all Ritsukagawa that suddenly appeared out of nowhere! It's made him so passive now. How could he seem to have anticipated his every move?
Cao Cao was sometimes puzzled in his heart. He set off from Xuchang and hasn't arrived in Anyi yet! Ritsukagawa's men in Anyi have already been clean, and there is nothing left.
Doesn't that mean that Ritsukagawa already knew his movements, and acted one step ahead of him, thus avoiding him?
This guy is really like a god!
Moreover, if they took a step earlier, they were able to walk calmly, as if the emperor was out on a cruise. This is true, he also maintained full dignity for the royal family!
All of this, Ritsu Kagawa is going on as if he is stepping on his point! This guy, how can the time be so accurate?
And now, he has made them trapped here, and it is difficult to ride a tiger. It seems that it is time to withdraw these large armies of theirs from Luyang. Their purpose was not to travel thousands of miles to bring troops here and confront Liu Biao! They were meant to be the emperor.
But now, everything is inexplicably chaotic.
Cao Cao, who calmed down and revisited this matter, suddenly found that they seemed to have gone astray.
At this time, when he heard what Guo Jia said to him, he instantly made a decision in his heart.
"Ordered the army, tonight the third watch will make dinner, the fifth watch will set off, and we will withdraw our troops from Luyang. Go to Pingyu. I will definitely break the rat of Ritsukagawa into thousands of pieces. ”
There is no need for him to stalemate with Liu Biao here, but Lu Xiangchuan has been unable to punish him for the crime of killing his brother, injuring his general, and occupying his city. As long as he catches Ritsu Xiangchuan, Cao Cao has the mind to skin him and pull his bones.
The generals listened to Cao Cao's orders, and they all said to him: "Obey the orders of the lord." ”
Then they dispersed and went to prepare for the withdrawal of their troops.
Liu Biao's side also knew that Cao Cao was mourning for Cao Hong in the past few days. During this period of time, the two armies were at peace.
In fact, during the period when their two armies were facing each other here. Cao Jun and their Jingzhou soldiers did not break out into any large-scale conflicts, they were here, but both sides were demonstrating to each other.
If they really want to launch a large-scale attack on each other, neither of them, but neither of them is ready.
However, although there were no large-scale conflicts, small-scale frictions were constant, and Cao Bing often had small groups of soldiers rushing out to provoke the Jingzhou soldiers. This is Cao Cao's temptation of Liu Biao, and it is also exerting pressure on Liu Biao.
Of course, Liu Biao is also well aware of Cao Cao's intentions, so he has always been indifferent to it.
However, on the fourth day of Cao Hong's funeral, Cao Ying's side was suddenly quiet, and he did not send any more people to harass them. This made Liu Biao feel strange.
"Zirou, Cao Bing is different, can you know the other party, what is the arrangement?" Liu Biao asked Kuai Liang.
Kuai Liang replied: "The enemy soldiers are either preparing for a large-scale attack or a large-scale retreat. According to the analysis of the situation at this time, Cao Cao seems to be retreating. ”
Liu Biao said: "If Cao Bing wants to retreat, will he play a trick to attack the east and the west, and want to capture the old and indulge in the plan." A nervous attack was made on me first, and then the soldiers retreated. In order to disturb the hearts of my army and cover the retreat of their entire army? ”
Kuai Liang replied: "So far, Cao Bing and we are not really at war. So even if Cao's soldiers want to retreat, there is no need for them to pretend to attack us first. Normally, this is a bit redundant. Because Cao Bing didn't think that even if they wanted to retreat, what would we do to him. ”
Liu Biao nodded and said to Kuai Liang: "Zirou's words are very true. If Cao's army wants to retreat, what will happen to our army? ”
Kuai Liang said: "It is advisable to take advantage of the fact that he is pulling out of the camp and suddenly attack him. ”
Liu Biao said: "If the war starts, Cao Cao and I will be incompatible. ”
Kuai Liang said: "So what? At this time, Cao Cao is ready to fight to the death with our army? If not, he can only suffer this loss. ”
Liu Biao said: "Cao concealed the use of troops and was good at tricks, if he was attacked and broke the net with me, what should he do?" ”
Regarding Liu Biao's worries, Kuai Liang replied with a smile: "But it is still the same as now, the two armies are facing each other. ”
Yes, even if they suddenly attacked and made Cao Cao angry, so what? The result will still be the same as now, Cao Bing will counterattack them, and then, their two armies will still face each other.
Does Cao Jun now have the strength to defeat them in one fell swoop? It's impossible.
If no matter what, they can be here, holding on to Cao Bing. In the end, Cao Cao was afraid that he would still suffer the dumb loss this time and choose to withdraw from the army.
Liu Biao nodded, instructed his subordinates Huang Zu Ganning and others, and said to them: "The generals are careful tonight, if they see any abnormal movement in Cao Ying, they can wave their troops to attack and kill them by surprise." ”
Huang Zu, Ganning and others promised in unison: "Yes, envoy." ”
At night, Liu Biao's army was in full swing. In the first half of the night, the wind was calm, and everyone in Liu Biao's camp knew that Cao Cao would take action in the second half of the night. Therefore, they are not impatient, but just wait with peace of mind.
In the second half of the night, waiting for the fifth watch, the sentry soldiers suddenly came to report: "Envoy, there seems to be movement in Cao's camp." How should our army act? ”
Liu Biao asked: "Can the corner flag of the Cao barracks be moved?" ”
The soldier replied, "It hasn't moved." ”
Liu Biao said: "In this way, we will explore again." ”
The creep retreated, and after a while, the creep came to report: "It's moving, it's moving." ”
Liu Biao said: "The armies can also be attacked. ”
Under the tent, Huang Zu Ganning and others waited for this moment. Hearing Liu Biao's speech, they ordered their subordinates one after another, and the whole army attacked and attacked Cao Ying.
Tens of thousands of soldiers in Jingzhou, listening to the orders of the general, torches rose everywhere, the sound of killing shook the sky, all the way to the turbulence, straight to Cao Ying.
Cao Cao's army, five watches, the army began to pull out the camp, Cao Cao saw the breeze in the four fields, the moon was light and the stars were scarce, and Liu Biao's army, there was silence, he smiled and said: "Our army is pulling out the camp at this moment, if Liu Biao takes advantage of the situation to attack it, our army will be defeated." ”
Guo Jia smiled beside him: "Liu Biao is respectful, I think even if he knows that the lord is going to withdraw from the army, I am afraid that he will only give the lord away."
Cao Cao laughed, and before the laughter fell, he suddenly found that the fire was soaring in the distance, and the sound of killing was deafening. Cao Cao was suspicious, and a small soldier had already arrived in a hurry, and said to Cao Cao: "General, the army of Liu Biaojun in Jingzhou is coming, what preparations should our army make, and please show the general."
