Chapter 279: Drama Zhong Design
Drama loyalty?
If Cao gathered here, he would be surprised to hear this name, Xi Zhong is the first chief strategist of Cao Cao in history, Xi Zhicai, I didn't expect that he would be under Kong Ling's command now. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
If he knew that Xi Zhicai was here, Cao Ju would definitely weigh it in advance, and then say about sending troops to Kong Ling, or in other words, directly change to the south to attack Luyang.
It's a pity that Li Cheng is not Cao Ju, and he doesn't know who Xi Zhong is, but he doesn't dare to offend casually, so he hugged his fists and said: "Mr. Xi came from afar to work hard, I don't know what order to bring Lord Shi?" ”
Xi Zhong smiled slightly and said: "Lord Assassin Shi ordered me to bring a letter, and General Li will know it at a glance." ”
"Oh." Kong Ling did not send the main general to take charge of the army, but sent a scholar to bring a letter, what was the purpose, Li Cheng stood up in confusion, got down from the main stage, walked to Xi Zhong's side, and respectfully accepted the letter.
After unfolding and taking a look, Li Chengdeng was stunned, Xi Zhong turned out to be a military advisor sent by Kong Ling, and Kong Ling asked Li Cheng to obey Xi Zhong's orders in everything.
Grandma's, Li Cheng was naturally very unhappy in his heart, Kong Ling's decision might as well send a chief general to take over the military power to make Li Cheng feel comfortable.
However, it was indeed Kong Ling's handwriting, and Li Cheng didn't dare to disobey it, so he had to hug his fists and say, "Mr. Xi, please take a seat." ”
Xi Zhong smiled slightly and said: "General Li is polite, Lord Assassin Shi sent me down, not to take charge of the army, but to assist the general to establish great achievements, how can I sit in the position of the main general, and please take the general's seat." ”
said it well, Li Cheng muttered secretly in his heart, and was polite to Xi Zhong, the latter resolutely did not take a seat, Li Cheng was no longer polite, and asked him to clean up the first case on his left hand and ask Xi Zhong to sit down.
After everyone sat down again, Xi Zhong briefly asked about the current situation, Li Cheng didn't dare to hide anything, and told the truth, even their decision to pursue Cao Ju's army.
Unexpectedly, after listening to it, Xi Zhong almost didn't think about it, so he said with a smile: "The plan of Cao Ju among the generals is also, this is a plan to lure the enemy out of the city, once the general leads the army to chase Cao Ju, he will be ambushed." ”
Li Cheng is not completely brainless, but he has no experience in leading the army alone, and when he encounters such a big thing, he naturally can't see through Cao Ju's strategy. Hearing Xi Zhong say this at this moment, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that there was such a possibility, and he was shocked into a cold sweat, and hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "Please also ask Mr. to teach me how to resolve it." ”
This time, Li Cheng no longer looked down on Xi Zhong, and sincerely asked him for advice.
Xi Zhong always had a smile on his face, and his smile was full of confidence: "General, this matter is easy to hear, Cao Ju is going east, but it is just to lead the general out of the city, and the general can plan it, as long as this and so, then Cao Ju will be defeated." ”
After Li Cheng heard this, he was overjoyed, immediately got up from his seat, walked quickly to the Xizhong case, bowed deeply, and said with sincere admiration: "Mr. is really talented, Li Cheng is willing to listen to any dispatch of Mr. ”
Xi Zhong expected that it was indeed all in the middle, Cao Ju planned to use this plan to lure out the defenders of Yangcheng and set up an ambush to annihilate them, so Cao Ju marched at a normal speed while sending more scouts to secretly investigate the movements of Yangcheng.
About the third day, a scout finally came to report that the defenders of Yangcheng had been dispatched and rushed in the direction of Yingchuan, with about 10,000 horses.
Yan Zhong listened and immediately asked, "You can investigate the situation, is it really ten thousand horses, or is the other party bluffing?" ”
The scout immediately replied: "Qi Qi military division, after careful and detailed investigation, his subordinates can definitely see that it is really 10,000 horses, and there is no bluff. ”
When Cao Ju heard this, he was overjoyed, and said to Yan Zhong: "Zifeng, then Li Cheng couldn't hold his breath, and he led the army to come, and the lonely plan was successful." ”
Yan Zhong frowned and said, "Lord, Yangcheng originally had two thousand defenders, and Zhao Li led an army of 10,000 to support, a total of 12,000 people. And that Li Cheng is just a Sima, how can he have such courage, there are only 2,000 people left to defend the city, and among them are only afraid of fraud. ”
Cao Ju laughed and said: "Zifeng is too worried, there are no strategists in Yangcheng, only Li Cheng alone, how can he come up with a clever plan." Since there are only 2,000 soldiers left in Li Chengcheng, our army's plan should also be changed, so that Xingba can lead the army to attack Yangcheng, so as to cut off the back road of Li Chengcheng's army. ”
Although Yan Zhong vaguely felt that the situation was a little too smooth, he thought that what Cao Ju said was also reasonable, and Cao Ju left 5,000 men and horses for Gan Ning, which was more than twice as many as the soldiers defending the city, so he didn't stop it anymore.
Of course, Cao Ju would not have given orders as soon as his mind was hot, and the news he got from several other scouts was exactly the same, so he no longer had any suspicions, and sent people to Pegasus to Gan Ning's camp.
Above the east gate of Yangcheng, it was not until the 10,000 army disappeared from view that Li Cheng and Xi Zhong withdrew their gaze.
Li Cheng was still a little worried, and asked, "Sir, will Cao Juzhen really be tricked?" ”
Xi Zhong also just came out of the mountain, and was recommended by Xin Bi to come to Yangcheng to help Li Cheng, his heart was not completely calm, but his expression was extremely confident, and he smiled slightly: "General, these 10,000 horses are real, and Cao Ju will inevitably be in the middle of the plan." ”
Li Cheng said again: "Sir, there are 5,000 men under Gan Ning's command, and our army is only 10,000, how can we win?" ”
Xi Zhong said with a smile: "General rest assured, the enemy is in the open, I am in the dark, the enemy is defenseless, but our army is unprepared, our army will win this battle." After that, our army can attack Cao Ju's army before and after the Lord of Assassin Shi, and its security can not be defeated? ”
At this moment, Li Cheng was a little relieved, nodded and said: "If this battle is won, the end will inevitably truthfully report to Lord Assassin Shi, and Mr. will be reused by Lord Assassin Shi." ”
Hehe, Kong Ling is not the master of Ming, if it weren't for Xin Bi's invitation this time, Xi Zhong would not have gone out of the mountain to help Kong Ling, yes, he didn't care about whether Kong Ling was reused or not, what he cared about was the appearance of the Ming master, and Cao Ju was the first target of his test.
After setting up camp, Cao Ju carefully discussed the ambush plan with Yan Zhong, and Yan Zhong saw that it was not early, so he took his leave and left.
As soon as Yan Zhong left, Cao Ju heard Dian Wei's voice at the door: "Miss Feng, it's really hard, how can you bother the girl with such tiring work, Cao Si, you are still stunned, and quickly bring the footwashing bucket in for Miss Feng." ”
Cao Ju had just picked up a book of soldiers, and when he heard this, he was stunned, and Feng brought him footwashing water again.
"Yes, General Dian." Cao Si immediately responded, took the foot-washing bucket from Feng's hand, and brought it into Cao Ju's Chinese army tent, while Feng followed with a slightly red face.
