"Catch. "www.biquge.info Seeing Xiao Xiong galloping past the general, Lu Bu took out an ordinary hard bow and threw it to Xiao Xiong.

Xiao Xiong was excitedly chopping on horseback, sweating profusely. Seeing Lu Bu throw a bow, after catching the bow and arrows, he hung the long knife on the horse's back: "I don't have any arrows." ”

Xiao Xiong slowly slowed down his horse, jumped off the horse, took his bow and arrows, and stepped on the horse's back again. Shoot your bow and arrows, and shoot one arrow at a time. The soldiers watching below did not feel visual fatigue, and cheered continuously.

"Don't be surprised, you can do it too. Who else wants to give it a try? Lu Bu stopped the exclamating soldiers again. Tell Xiao Xiong off his horse.

"I... I—" Countless soldiers who couldn't ride horses were eager to try.

Lu Bu casually pointed to the crowd, and in the direction that his finger pointed, a group of people rushed out of the big formation, ran to the war horse, and just climbed to the war horse without giving in, vying to be the first to try.

"Let's draw lots." Lu Bu also did not favor anyone, and used the simplest method to decide who to ride. The lucky soldier happily climbed on horseback, just like Xiao Xiong, and performed all kinds of actions as he wanted.

Lu Bu looked at the reactions of the soldiers below with satisfaction, the effect of today's experiment was very good, regulating their passion. Passion, when regulated, should increase the psychological superiority of the soldiers.

"Let's screen, don't be discouraged by the eliminated brothers, you will have a chance next time. Everyone stood like me, holding out until the last thousand soldiers entered the archery battalion. "Lu Bu's movements are very simple, which is the standing military posture of later generations. It's a simple move, but it's a great way to temper one's will and perseverance, and at the same time strengthen the discipline of this group of poorly trained soldiers.

"My request is very simple, everyone can't move, whoever moves will be eliminated." Lu Bu had great hopes for this cavalry, and he demanded more from them than the Death Legion, not only for each of them to be strong-willed, but also for a highly disciplined soldier. The Death Legion, on the contrary, demanded too much from them, but restrained their fierce spirit.

There were Xiao Xiong and another soldier performing, Lu Bu still didn't have much hope for this cavalry in a short time, just now after all, it was a performance, and it would take a lot of adaptation time to really go to the battlefield, and when the grain and grass were finished, they could be pulled to Yuan Shu for training.

――――――――――――――――――――――

Chen Deng closed the city gates, waiting for the best time to attack.

From the first day, I saw that Sun Ce's army was lazy and lazy, and he was weak and scolding under the city tower, Chen Deng was afraid of deception, and did not dare to attack easily, so he pressed the impulse to go out of the city to annihilate the enemy, and carefully observed.

"General, our army's grain and grass were robbed by Sun Ce's people."

The next day, Che Zhou received bad news. They pursued Tai Shici lightly, the grain and grass were not enough for the army to eat, and now the grain and grass were robbed by Sun Ce's army again, Che Zhou was worried about affecting morale, so he came to Chen Deng to discuss.

Chen Deng was observing the enemy situation on the Chen Tower, and he had time to appease his pig teammates, and said in a cold voice: "Find the big clans in the city to borrow first, and wait until I break Sun Ce's army and return it to them." ”

It didn't take long for Che Zhou to send soldiers to deliver a message, urging Chen Deng to quickly defeat Sun Ce's army outside the city, and the big clans in the city were not willing to borrow food at all.

Chen Deng was not worried about the emptiness of the rear at all, he gathered heavy troops to defend the city in the rear county town, as long as Sun Ce dared to bypass Dongyang City and attack Ping'an County behind him, Chen Deng could just flank the front and back. The only miscalculation was that the grain road was cut off, and the carriage was useless, which made Chen Deng very annoyed.

Zhou Yu saw that Chen Deng was implementing a tired enemy strategy, and was secretly anxious, even if the county town occupied by the Cao army in the north of Dongyang City was empty, he did not dare to occupy it easily, in case Chen Deng cut off the supply line, then this army would be more than lucky.

Most of Sun Ce's grain and grass were given to Lu Bu, and the grain and grass collected by Sun Quan had not yet been transported across the river in time. If it drags on too long, there will be a shortage of food and grass. Zhou Yu lured him with a weak brigade, hoping that Che Zhou would go out of the city as soon as possible for a decisive battle.

"The grain and grass will run out soon, do you really want to give up the best time to attack Xuzhou and retreat to defend?" Sun Ce was unwilling. He spent so much grain and grass to find Lu Bu to buy Guangling City, and just gave up?

"Don't worry, our army has cut off the grain route in the city, and now it's up to see who lasts to the end. The lord could order the rations of non-combat soldiers and weak brigades to be halved and to be used exclusively for elite troops. At the same time, he urged General Zhongmou to send supplies as soon as possible. Zhou Yu is very clear about the situation in front of him, now it is the two sides to fight to the death, whoever loses first will wait for the other party's army to chase and kill and withdraw from Guangling.

"Why hasn't Zhongmou sent grain and grass yet?" Sun Ce was a little angry in his heart, this war is related to whether Jiangdong can cross the river and expand its territory, he calculated the grain and grass reserved at the right time, Sun Quan should have sent the grain and grass to him two days ago, and there is not a grain of rice yet: "Could it be that Lu Bu sent someone to rob our army's grain road?" ”

"I heard that Lu Bu's vanguard was folded in Tuzhong, he was too busy to take care of himself, how dare he break with our army at this time? The defenders along the road did not hear the news that Lu Bu had robbed the grain, so it should be that the family was unwilling to give grain. Zhou Yu said.

Lu Bu's words sounded in his ears, Sun Quan's ambition to replace him was like a curse, could it be that Sun Quan wanted to take advantage of his army trapped in Guangling, deliberately not distribute food and grass, and seize power after his defeat?

"No, it won't... No, Sun Ce shook his head vigorously and threw distracting thoughts out of his heart.

"What wouldn't? What's wrong with you, lord? Zhou Yu saw that Sun Ce's face turned pale, shook his head vigorously, and asked suspiciously.

"Nothing. Then send someone to urge the grain and grass. Sun Ce obviously knew that this was Lu Bu's provocation, but he was never able to pull out this thorn from his heart.

Food and grass are not available, and the situation of Sun Cejun's army in Guangling is very dangerous. Zhou Yu thought hard all night, and finally came up with a countermeasure to lure out the Cao soldiers in the city. He ordered to abandon the controlled grain route of Cao's soldiers and retreat all the elite soldiers to Tangyi.

There was a shortage of food in the city, so Chen Deng withstood the pressure and gritted his teeth to continue to insist.

On the third day, Sun Ce did not continue to send troops to scold the battle, but there was a small army at the north gate to escort the Cao soldiers who came with grain and grass, and the grain and grass officer also said that the grain and grass of the large army was about to arrive. When Chen Deng heard the arrival of grain and grass, he spit out his worries to the bottom of his heart, and he finally won.

Chen Deng summoned the grain and grass officer and asked, "Sun Ce cut off my grain channel, why did he suddenly give up?" There must be deception in this. ”

The grain and grass officer replied: "The last general does not know. The last general captured a few Jiangdong soldiers who wanted to block the road and rob them halfway, and the general could ask them. ”

"Bring it up." Chen Deng was overjoyed when he heard this, and at least he could ask for some useful information from the soldiers.

Looking at the Jiangdong soldiers who came up, sitting on the ground with weak ass, Chen Deng asked, "Why did you rob my army of food and grass?" ”

"I'm hungry. Since yesterday, Sun Ce has only given us a little ration, not even half of the usual amount, and today in the middle of the night let us beat gongs and drums in Beishantou... How can we withstand some food, we are so hungry that our eyes are dazzled, and we see that the military grain and grass are being delivered, and we really can't stand the hunger, so we plan to grab some food. Please spare your life, the general..."The captured Jiangdong soldier knelt on the ground and his head was like pounding garlic.

"Sun Ce, what does this mean?" Che Xuan looked at Chen Deng puzzled.

Chen Deng touched his chin and beard, held his head high and said, "I know at least two things from this little soldier's mouth, first, Sun Ce's army is out of food. Second, Sun Ce is retiring from the army. ”

Che Xuan nodded and said, "Sun Ce just sent troops to Guangling, why did he run out of food?" There must be deception in this. ”

"Xuzhou doesn't know that all the grain and grass of our army have been taken away by Lu Bu." The captured soldier Sun Ce said.

"I see." Che Zhou and Chen Deng suddenly realized. Since Lu Bu robbed Sun Ce of grain and grass, who is Lu Bu who will leave grain and grass for Sun Ce to save his life? The two believed that Sun Ce was seriously short of food.

Che Xuan asked again, "How can Yuan Long be sure that Sun Ce is retreating?" ”

"Sun Ce doesn't know the reality of our army, and he doesn't know that our army is also running out of food, so he doesn't dare to bet on this game. If he didn't retreat, why did he give up continuing to control our army's food routes and let our army get supplies? Sun Ce wouldn't be so unwise. The bluff in the middle of the night is to prevent our army from pursuing, if the general of the chariot cavalry does not believe it, he can send someone to Sun Ce's camp to inspect it. ”

The general was suspicious and sent people to inspect Sun Ce's camp. Chen Deng took advantage of the fact that the spies who went to inspect did not return to reorganize his troops and horses, and only waited for the confirmation to pursue Sun Ce's army and capture Tangyi and even the entire Guangling County.

"Report to the general's Jiangdong battalion pennant fluttering, but there is no one in the battalion." The spies report back to Chen Deng.

Zhou Yu, who looked down on his own camp on the top of the mountain, saw Cao Bing leaving, and got up and nodded: "The chariot has been tricked by me, who dares to take Dongyang City?" ”

Cheng Pu and Han Dang didn't hear it and ignored Zhou Yu. Seeing that no one stepped forward to receive the order, Tai Shi Ci was embarrassed by Zhou Yu, and stood up and said: "The last general will lose Dongyang City, and it should be the last general who will be guilty of meritorious service." ”

"Ziyi is really a big husband." Zhou Yu sighed with emotion, he was broad-minded and didn't care much about Cheng Pu and Han Dang's deliberate ignorance. Only when Tai Shi Ci relieved the siege was he exempted from embarrassment, but only when the general listened to the order could he take Dongyang according to the calculation: "General Tai Shi has the crime of losing Dongyang." General Taishi led the weak brigade to retreat towards Tangyi, and once the chariot army chased after him, he was only allowed to lose but not win. ”

Cheng Pu sneered when he heard Zhou Yu's arrangement: "It's really embarrassing to march and fight, bent on defeat." ”

Zhou Yu ignored Cheng Pu's ridicule and said to Tai Shici: "If you lose, this battle will be your first credit." Then he turned his head to Cheng Pu and said: "The old general is famous, and he has taken the lead in capturing Kuangqi City since crossing the river. ”

"You want to kill me with a sword?" Cheng Pu was furious and pointed at Zhou Yu and said.

Zhou Yu could only patiently explain: "In less than an hour, the Che Xuan army will definitely pursue south, Dongyang City is empty, and the old general will take it easily." ”

"What if the chariot doesn't pursue?"

Zhou Yu excited: "I am willing to use the head of the Xiang Shang's army to block the traffic and pursue it." Could it be that the old general is old and does not dare to attack the city? ”

Cheng Pu saw Zhou Yu sarcastically mocking him, and said angrily: "When I come back after I go to Dongyang City, Zhou Gongjin will have to wash his neck." After Cheng Pu finished speaking, the angry soldiers took a detour.

"Han Dang, Sun Yi, Zhou Tai, Chen Wu, Lu Fan, and Xu Yi each choose an army, and each choose a dangerous place to ambush in the north of Tangyi, and just wait for General Tai Shici's defeated army to pass and kill the ambush pursuers." Zhou Yu finally said.

"Whoa." The generals obeyed Zhou Yu's arrangement and led their troops to Tangyi one after another.
