An unprecedented all-staff congress ended perfectly. After that, Jing Yue returned the military power to Cai Mao. You're the general, and I'm just a weak strategist.

Now, the Jingzhou army led by Cai Mao and Jing Yue has once again recovered to the size of 50,000 people, while the Cao army remaining in Yuzhou has less than 30,000 people.

Therefore, after Jingyue's all-staff congress, the Jingzhou soldiers, whose morale had been raised again, drove to Runan City again.

Jing Yue's method is actually very simple, that is, it tells a truth.

You were defeated by Cao's army, so you were afraid, you fled. But there is no need for you to be afraid, let alone run away. Now, it's up to us to rob other people's things. If we win, we will take what we should take, and if we lose, it will be a big deal to go home. So, it's them who should be afraid. Because, they are the ones who lose things.

And we should show the temper of a robber! Don't give? If you don't give it, grab it! Kill if you don't give it! Kill them all, take everything we want, take as much as we want.

This is actually a kind of bandit logic. A brainwashing logic that maximizes the benefits obtained and minimizes the dangers and costs suffered.

Now it doesn't matter what robbers are not robbers, and there is no need to ask if they are unreasonable, anyway, 50,000 Jingzhou soldiers have made a violent comeback.

Uncle, I was attacked by you last time, it doesn't count, let's do it again!

Before Cao Cao, who had traveled under the starry night, rushed back to Runan City to drink saliva, the sentinels who went out to inquire about the news brought back the news of Cai Mao's army.

"King Wei, the Jingzhou army is only less than twenty miles away from my Runan City!"

Twenty miles, this is a very short distance, generally the two armies face each other, and the distance to choose the camp site will be about twenty miles, but the meaning of the news brought back by the sentry cavalry, the Jingzhou soldiers do not seem to have any intention of stopping. Is this an immediate siege?

"Prepare for war now!"

Cao Cao's front foot had not yet entered the Taishou Mansion, and his back foot immediately came out again, heading straight for the southern city wall.

By the time Cao Cao arrived at the city wall, Xiahoudun and Xu Huang were already standing on the top of the city in armor, quietly watching the rising dust in the distance!

"King Wei!" Suddenly, Cao Cao's footsteps woke up the two, and when the two looked back, they were surprised to find that it was Cao Cao himself.

Cao Cao waved his hand, "Cai Mao is menacing this time!" ”

Before, Cao Cao knew the news of Cai Mao's settlement in Ancheng, and according to Xiahoudun's urgent report, Cai Mao was also non-stop along the way, and the soldiers pointed directly at Runan City.

"King Wei! The subordinates received an urgent report that after Cai Mao and Jing Yue converged, they immediately rushed to Runan. The Jingzhou army has just experienced a major defeat, and there is such a move, and the subordinates think that there must be a mystery in it. Xiahoudun originally meant to let Cao Cao arrange a military division for himself to analyze and analyze the intentions of the Jingzhou army, but he didn't expect it to be Cao Cao.

"Yuan Jean! For generals, cautious and courageous. Lone is very relieved! ”

Among the Cao family brothers, in addition to Cao Cao, the most worthy of the task is Cao Ren. In Cao De's previous life, Cao Cao had always been on the offensive, and some strategic defenses, Cao Cao had always been handed over to Cao Ren. Cao Ren's position is equivalent to that of the commander-in-chief, while Xiahoudun and Cao Hong, their positioning is mainly that of generals charging into battle.

Now, Cao Ren has been dug up by Cao De, and Xiahoudun finally has a change that can provoke the beam, can Cao Cao be unhappy!

"It can be a little weird indeed. However, Cai Mao's new defeat and our army's great victory are established facts. No matter what conspiracy Cai Mao has, he can break it with all his might. Ladies and gentlemen, who dares to lead an army out of the city to meet the battle? ”

This time, Cao Cao didn't want to simply nest in the city for passive defense. After all, Cao Cao had just defeated Cai Mao, and the morale of the soldiers was like a rainbow.

"King Wei, my subordinates are willing to go!"

"King Wei! Leave it to you! ”

……

After Cao Cao finished speaking, Xiahoudun, Xu Huang, and the lieutenant of Runan, who had just been promoted to a partial general, immediately stood up and asked for battle.

Cao Cao looked at a few people, "Leave the battle to Gongming!" ”

Because the previous attack on the camp had just made a great achievement, and Xiahoudun, as the main general of his own formation, naturally couldn't go to the front line to engage in temptation, so this task was only Xu Huang!

Xu Huang smiled, hugged his fists and thanked him: "Thank you King Wei!" ”

"Xu Huang! Must fight, must be quick to fight! Defeat Cai Mao in one fell swoop! Therefore, I must fight, and I will be alone with you with 3,000 cavalry! ”

There were quite a few Cao troops in Runan City, with more than 20,000 people and nearly 30,000, but there were only more than 4,000 cavalry among them. And now, Cao Cao directly threw three thousand to Xu Huang. Naturally, its intention is also very clear.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak......" With a grinding sound, the south gate of Runan City slowly opened. Xu Huang was dressed in dark bright light armor, holding a big axe, sat down on the famous horse of the Huns, and led three thousand cavalry out of Runan City.

And when Xu Huang's cavalry array had been formed, Cai Mao's vanguard finally appeared in everyone's sight.

When Cai Mao saw the cavalry of the Cao Army, which had already been waiting for him, he couldn't help but be surprised.

Hey, what's going on? We are here to attack the city, why don't you honestly defend the city and run out?

There is a cloud in the art of war, "ten will surround it, five will attack it, and if it is doubled, it will be fought, and the enemy will be able to divide it, and if it is less, it can be escaped, and if it is not, it can be avoided." ”

Today, Cai Mao and Cao Cao's forces are almost doubled. Originally, Cai Mao was still thinking about how to lure Cao Jun out of the city to fight. Now, people have run out by themselves, but Cai Mao doesn't know what to do.

"Cai Mao! Previously, the king of Wei was kind and couldn't bear to kill you, so he left you with a dog name and went back to reunite with Liu Biao's master and servant. But you don't know what to do, and once again lead the troops to commit my Runan, are you really not afraid of death? Xu Huang pointed at the big axe, and scolded Cai Mao who was leading the army.

And before Cai Mao could speak, Jing Yue on the side walked out.

"Presumably Your Excellency is Xu Huang and Xu Gongming a few days ago. Why, is it enough to attack my camp on a rainy night to make you arrogant and rude? It can be seen that it is average! However, now that the general has put on a large formation again, can you use this ant-like cavalry to break my army of 50,000? ”

"Humph! Who's coming? Why do you dare to speak so fast? Ask you, do you dare to fight with the big axe in my hand? As soon as Xu Huang saw that the other party was dressed in Confucian clothes, he guessed that this person must be Jing Yue. But......

Sure enough, "The general is really majestic!" I have read the books of the sages, how can I be as short as you! When Jing Yue spoke, the pride peculiar to a scholar spontaneously arose.

"Phew!" Xu Huang spat and smeared it from afar. "A sour Confucian who can only dance and ink, do you want to use black ink in the inkstone to defeat me? Don't talk nonsense, if you withdraw immediately, the king of my family Wei will not investigate you for the crime of violation. If you are obsessed, hum, look at the big axe in my hand! ”

"In that case, what are the generals waiting for?" Jing Yue hooked his fingers, and his words were full of provocation. It's as if to say, come and hit me, come and hit me!

"King Wei is mighty! Offensive! ”

Although Xu Huang was choked by Jing Yue's anger, Xu Huang also saw Jing Yue's purpose now.

So, the offensive must begin!
