Chapter 1117: Counterattack on Cao Cao

Zhao Feng immediately handed over the emergency report to Xu Shu, and after Xu Shu read it, he asked: "Yuan Zhi thinks that we are attacking Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan's department?" Or sit back and watch Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan, and lead the troops to leave Henan Yin? ”

Xu Shu pondered for a moment and waved at Zhao Feng: "Actually, the battle of the lord has achieved the goal we wanted. ”

"Cao Cao's side, at most, more than 10,000 people escaped."

"Next, we will turn defense into offense and take the initiative to attack the Yingchuan County Chief's Society."

"Once you finally win a crushing victory with Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan's troops, you will not be able to contain Cao Cao's army after that!"

As soon as Zhao Feng heard it, he knew what Xu Shu meant, that is, to let go of Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Yuan's department.

In this way, with only a little trimming, the army can be reorganized to attack Yin Changshe in Henan, so as to contain all of Cao Cao's army.

In this way, other armies can be allowed to attack Cao Cao's territory respectively.

If Zhao Feng wanted to defeat Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan, resulting in the casualties of the army, then there would be no way to attack Changshe.

In this way, it will not be possible to contain Cao Cao's army.

At that time, even if other armies attacked Cao Cao's territory separately, Cao Cao could still deal with it.

Zhao Feng pondered for a long time, and finally looked at the sentry horseman: "Okay, go back and tell Lu Su." ”

"Let Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan lead their troops to leave Henan Yin!"

The sentry knight bowed his hand to Zhao Feng: "Huh! ”

With that, he turned and walked out of the chamber.

After the sentry rode away, Zhao Feng ordered the herald to transfer the female soldiers and personal guards from Mi County to Xinzheng.

In addition, he also sent someone to tell Lu Su and asked him to bring the more than 8,000 guards of Fan Ling to Xinzheng after cleaning up the baggage of Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan's army.

At the same time, he also sent people to transfer all the more than 30,000 wounded soldiers from Qilin to Xinzheng.

Early the next morning, a sentry rode into the conference hall and bowed his hand to Zhao Feng: "Lord Qiqi, General Zhang has sent good news!" ”

After speaking, he presented the good news in his hand with both hands.

Xiong Da took the good news from the sentry rider and handed it over to Zhao Feng.

After Zhao Feng opened the good news, he looked at it carefully.

The general content is that Zhang Yan and Hua Xiong jointly attacked the Cao army under Liangxian County.

Hua Xiong killed Cao Jun's general Le Jin, and together with Zhang Yan, captured Cao Pi and Cao Zhen.

As for Cao's 10,000 army, more than 8,000 people were killed, and the rest were all taken prisoner, and not a single one was released.

After reading it, Zhao Feng was very surprised.

Unexpectedly, on the side of Liang County, it was actually Lejin, Cao Pi, Cao Zhen and others.

But thinking about it carefully, Zhao Feng felt that Cao Cao should have wanted Cao Pi to act as a bait to attract part of the army on Zhao Feng's side.

After all, Cao Pi had led an army of more than 40,000 people to attack from Liangxian once before.

It's just that maybe there are not many defenders in Liangxian County, Zhang Yan has no willingness to take the initiative to attack, or maybe it is Zhang Yan's personal negligence, and he didn't find out that the Cao army along the way was led by Cao Pi and Le Jin.

However, it was precisely because of this that Zhao Feng did not send an additional army to Liang County.

It's a mistake and it's wrong.

If Zhao Feng knew that Cao Pi and Le Jin were leading the troops in Liang County, then Zhao Feng would not send someone to find out about the suspicious soldiers in Huoyang Mountain, and he would directly think that there must be an ambush there.

After analyzing, Zhao Feng looked at the sentry horseman: "Go back and tell Zhang Yan and let him continue to sit in Liang County." ”

"Then let Hua Xiong lead the cavalry and rush to Xinzheng!"

The sentry knight bowed his hand to Zhao Feng: "Huh! ”

With that, he turned around and pushed out of the chamber.

Wait for the sentry to ride away.

Zhao Feng looked at Xiong Da: "Xiong Da, send someone to order Zhou Cang, let him lead his troops to leave Jing Zhaoyin and go to Zuo Feng Yi to take charge." ”

"In addition, I am telling Zhang Liao and Zhou Cang that I will allocate 10,000 troops to dispatch them later."

"Order Dian Wei and Wang Ping to lead their troops to attack Nanyang County."

"Order Xu Huang to lead the army of Dongjun, and order Xiahou Lan to lead the headquarters of Jiyin County to attack Chenliu County together."

"Order Zhang He and Wen Chou, let them lead the army to attack Jingluo Yuzhou."

"Order Huang Zhong and Xia Zhu to sit in Xiapi."

Xiong Da bowed his hand to Zhao Feng: "Huh! ”

With that, he turned around and exited the chamber.

After Xiong Da left, Zhao Feng looked at Xu Shu: "Yuan Zhi, you have to go and reorganize the more than 32,000 wounded soldiers and more than 25,000 Cao army prisoners." ”

"After that, these 57,000 people were divided into five armies and sent to Zhang Liao, Zhou Cang, Dian Wei, Wang Ping, Xu Huang, Xiahou Lan, Wen Chou and Zhang He."

Xu Shu waved at Zhao Feng: "Huh! ”

With that, he turned around and exited the chamber.

The reason why Zhao Feng arranged it this way was because the first stage of the war with Cao Cao was basically over.

In order to guard against the lurking forces on the right side of Fufeng, he could only send more than 10,000 troops to Zhang Liao and Zhou Cang.

In this way, Jing Zhaoyin and Zuo Fengyi each have an army of about 15,000.

And Dian Wei, Wang Ping, Xu Huang, and Xiahou Lan are only going to attack a county, and Zhao Feng is here to send more than 10,000 people over, which is enough.

As for Zhang He and Wen Chou, more than 10,000 people were allocated respectively, and that was because Zhang He and Wen Chou needed to attack a state.

Of course, Yuzhou seems to be a state, but in fact, the area is not very large, and there are only Yingchuan County, Runan County, Peiguo, Liang State, and several counties.

And Zhang He and Wen Chou's early goals are Liang Guo and Peiguo.

This kind of 'king', as long as he knows that Cao Cao's general trend has gone, will not resist much at all, and will choose to surrender.

In other words, the real target of Zhang He and Wen Chou's army of about 30,000 is actually Runan County.

As for Peng Chengguo and Chen Guo, they will eventually be surrounded by Zhao Feng's counties and lands, just like Lu State, Dongping State, Ren Chengguo, and Jibei State, and finally have to choose to surrender.

Three days later, Zhao Feng led an army of more than 90,000, known as an army of 130,000, and invaded Yingchuan County.

These 90,000 troops were Zhao Feng's more than 10,000 personal guards, Lu Su's less than 30,000 troops, and Tai Shici's more than 10,000 troops, totaling 50,000 infantry.

In terms of cavalry, after integration, Zhao Yun and Hua Xiong are now leading 15,000 cavalry respectively, and Wei Yan only leads 10,000 cavalry, a total of 40,000 cavalry.

There were less than 2,000 cavalry in surplus, and Zhao Feng also divided his troops into five routes and sent them to several other armies to mobilize.

After all, those armies, when attacking, need more sentry cavalry to find out the news.

Of course, Zhao Feng's leopard battalion will naturally not be mobilized.

And the number of 130,000 troops, that is because Cao Cao did not know that Zhao Feng had distributed more than 30,000 wounded soldiers and prisoners of Cao's army to various armies.

So for Cao Cao, who didn't know, counting the expected wounded soldiers, Zhao Feng did have an army of 130,000!
