Chapter 230: Easy to Defend and Difficult to Attack
Yuan Shu's face was a little embarrassed, he praised Zhou Yu, but he didn't expect Zhou Yu to ignore him.
Zhou Yu lowered his head and pondered, his mind was spinning rapidly, the deployment of troops and the battle situation of the two sides immediately appeared in his mind, he kept calculating, kept calculating, but still couldn't calculate what the purpose of Cao Jun was?
"Gong Jin?" Yuan Shu saw Zhou Yu's strange face, and couldn't help asking.
"Huh?" Zhou Yu saw that Yuan Shu was in front of him, and remembered his gaffe, and couldn't help but arch his hand: "Lord, Zhou is Meng Lang." ”
Yuan Shu asked again: "What has happened to Gongjin so gaffe?" Although Yuan Shu has not had much contact with Zhou Yu, he has Yuan Shu's ability to recognize people, and he can see that Zhou Yu is not a sentimental person, let alone a person who can lose his mind on the battlefield.
Zhou Yu replied: "Lord, the Cao army must have tricks, and our army was only able to win two big victories, I'm afraid it was the Cao army who did it on purpose." ”
"Oh? What does Gong Jin mean by this? Yuan Shu was a little surprised, a little puzzled, but more than a little displeased, after all, Yuan Shu defeated Cao Jun head-on for the first time, but Zhou Yu said that Cao Jun did it on purpose, and he was naturally unhappy in his heart.
"This ...... The last general also didn't know what tricks Cao Jun had. Zhou Yu was dumbfounded, he really didn't calculate what Cao Jun's move meant, it wasn't that Zhou Yu's wisdom was too poor, it was really Guo Jia's plan that was incredible.
Not to mention that Guo Jia deliberately lost two games in a row, he said that he would abandon Ancheng and Weicheng, and then send all the soldiers under his command to go straight to the Weihe River, such a move, even if he could wipe out the more than 10,000 soldiers of Yuan Shujun's Weihe River, it would not have much effect.
What's more, with such an arrangement, Yuan Shujun took Ancheng, and Weicheng was like a bag to get something, such an unwise move, how could Cao Jun do it?
This is also one of the reasons why Zhou Yu ignored Guo Jia's scheme, because Zhou Yu did not believe that Guo Jia would make such an unwise move.
"Don't worry, Gongjin, our army has been established and invincible, just wait and see what happens." Yuan Shu raised his hand and patted Zhou Yu's shoulder, his eyes full of trust and encouragement.
And at this moment, Yuan Shu, can't wait for Sun Ce to be defeated and die in a fierce battle with Cao Jun, if so, he can smoothly take Zhou Yu under his command, after all, Yuan Shu admires Zhou Yu too much, not to mention that Zhou Yu can lay out a big break Cao Jun, but to say that Zhou Yu can see Cao Jun's layout and strategy at a glance, this ability, so Yuan Shu admired.
Zhou Yu was speechless, so he had to look up at Ancheng, and saw that the soldiers of Yuan Shujun were still continuing to attack, and it was a critical moment at this moment, and a large number of soldiers of Yuan Shujun had already poured on the walls of Ancheng, and they were fighting bloodily with the soldiers of Cao Jun.
Yuan Shu also looked back at Ancheng, and when he saw this scene, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said: "Ancheng will take over." "Yuan Shu can be described as high-spirited at the moment, if he can win Ancheng, it can be said that he has won three games in a row against Cao Jun, thinking about the picture of being defeated by Cao Jun before, he is very happy at this moment.
On Anseong.
Xiahoudun personally led the guards around him to gallop to the city wall with a gun, he saw that the enemy army was large, and the offensive was like a tide, and the soldiers under his command had gradually lost the enemy.
Xiahoudun picked up the spear in succession, immediately beheaded three people, and the spear in his hand collapsed again, and immediately slapped down an enemy soldier who wanted to climb to the city wall.
"What is the intention of this plan, sir?" Xiahoudun looked around, couldn't help but clench his spear, and sighed secretly in his heart, if it weren't for Guo Jia to transfer the defenders in Ancheng, Xiahoudun would have absolute confidence to defend Ancheng, but at this moment, Ancheng was already in danger.
"General, the north gate is broken!" Suddenly, a bloodied young general walked quickly to Xiahoudun's side and immediately gave up.
"Alas!" Xiahoudun gritted his teeth and sighed, he knew in his heart that only the three thousand defenders in Ancheng would definitely not be able to stop the repeated attacks of tens of thousands of enemy soldiers, and the defeat was a foregone conclusion at this moment.
"All the soldiers fought bravely to kill the enemy! Reinforcements are coming! Xiahoudun shouted, with a long spear in his hand, and once again led the army into the enemy's army.
Although Xiahoudun knew that Guo Jia would not send reinforcements to rescue, he said this out of helplessness, because he knew in his heart that the soldiers under his command had already been defeated, and if he did not give his soldiers some hope, I am afraid that they would be defeated in a short time.
"General! The south gate is broken! Another young general fought to Xiahou Dun's side and immediately said.
"!" Xiahoudun couldn't help scolding angrily, looked around again, and saw that the west gate he was in was also in danger, and roared again: "All the soldiers only need to hold on for a moment, and reinforcements will come!" "Anyway, Xiahoudun once again led the army into the enemy's army, has Xiahoudun brave, where he passed, the enemy army was cold and scattered, although so, but Xiahoudun faced several times the enemy army, but also powerless to turn the tide.
Xiahoudun didn't have to defend Ancheng, not to mention that Guo Jia had told Xiahoudun with a secret order that if the enemy attacked the city with all his might, he could abandon the city and break through.
Xiahoudun only had to fight to the death with the enemy, because the Cao army still had an advantage at this moment, after all, the Cao army was defended, although there were many enemy troops, but they also had to climb up one by one along the ladder, and if they held on for a moment longer, they could kill more enemy troops.
After another moment of fighting, the west gate where Xiahoudun was located was also captured by the enemy, even if Xiahoudun had the courage of ten thousand people, but it was not the opponent of a large number of enemy soldiers.
"General! Let's get on the horse and break through! Seeing this, the adjutant general next to him immediately gave up his hand and persuaded him.
"Alas!" Seeing this, Xiahoudun sighed helplessly, so he had to wave his gun and shout: "All the soldiers broke through and left!" Someone is the leader, take the lead in the charge! ”
"Let's go!" The expressions of all the soldiers beside him immediately relaxed, and they all looked around at the current battle situation, followed by Xiahoudun, and everyone galloped down the city, took their horses and rushed.
Fortunately, Xiahoudun was familiar with the terrain of Ancheng, or perhaps the enemy saw that the city had been broken, so he did not take excessive precautions, and let Xiahoudun rush left and right, and killed outside the east gate in one go.
Outside the east gate, Xiahoudun stopped his horse, and saw that the east gate had been captured by the enemy, and there were at least thousands of enemy troops inside and outside the door.
"All the soldiers, the enemy army is like a mustard, how can we be afraid!" Xiahoudun couldn't help but shout to cheer for the soldiers under his command, looked back again, and shouted: "Kill!" After that, Xiahoudun held a spear in his hand and took the lead, as if he regarded the thousands of enemy troops in front of him as if they were nothing.
After a series of bloody battles, in the end, Xiahoudun only led more than ten horsemen to fight out of the encirclement, and when he broke through, Xiahoudun glanced at Ancheng quite reluctantly, and then rode his horse to Weishui Pass and fled.
The city is not dead, but there are exceptions, such as a fierce general like Xiahoudun, and a fierce general like the second master, with personal bravery, it is not difficult to take the head of the general, let alone break through in the midst of the army.
Yuan Shujun ran to Yuan Shu's side with a happy face, and immediately arched his hand and said, "Lord, Ancheng is broken!" ”
"Good!" Yuan Shu was overjoyed, he had already seen that the Cao army in Ancheng had been defeated, and he had been calculating in his heart when Ancheng would be broken, and similarly, he was more afraid that Cao Jun's reinforcements would arrive, or that Guo Jia had other conspiracies and tricks, after all, he was still more afraid of Guo Jia in his heart.
However, at this moment, Ancheng has been broken, and Yuan Shu is relieved, even if Cao Jun has any conspiracies, it is useless.
Yuan Shu immediately smiled sideways and said: "Today's big victory, Gong Jin is the first to win." "It's not Yuan Shu's move to buy people's hearts, and being able to defeat Cao Jun three times today is indeed planned for Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu's face was ashamed, but he didn't reply, because he had been calculating in his heart what Cao Jun's plan was, but at this moment, he hadn't figured it out.
Suddenly, Yuan Shujun probed Malay and reported: "The Cao army of Weicheng abandoned the city and left, with more than 10,000 troops, and went straight to the Wei River!" ”
"What! Abandon the city? Yuan Shu immediately rode his horse to the front of the horse, grabbed the young general's shirt, and roared angrily: "You say that the Cao army has soldiers? ”
"Lord, it's a plan!" Zhou Yu couldn't help sighing, and said with a guilty face: "Lord, it turns out that Cao Jun's previous actions were all a plan to cut troops, and in order to divert the tiger from the mountain, the main forces of our army were led to Ancheng and Nanshan, and Cao's army was secretly Weihe. ”
"Cao Jun is like this, it makes no sense." After Yuan Shu listened to Zhou Yu's words, his expression was in a trance, and he said: "Even so, even if the Cao army completely annihilates my Weihe soldiers, it is ...... with Cao Renjun."
"Lonely understands!" Yuan Shu suddenly looked dazed, and said: "Cao Jun is desperate, if he and Cao Ren's army are together, a total of 20,000 soldiers and horses, they will definitely attack the hinterland of Yuzhou, so the target of Cao Jun is Runan?" ”
"That's how it should be." Zhou Yu immediately gave up his hand, what he thought in his heart was the same as Yuan Shu, but he couldn't figure out why Guo Jia used troops like this, even if the Cao army attacked by surprise and could break through several cities in the hinterland of Yuzhou, then the 20,000 Cao troops who went deep into Yuzhou would only be wiped out, after all, there were still tens of thousands of defenders of Yuan Shu in Yuzhou, not to mention that the tens of thousands of troops led by Yuan Shu could also be pursued.
Yuan Shu asked again: "Gong Jin thinks that what should our army do at this moment?" ”
Zhou Yu replied: "For today's plan, our army has only two choices, one is to quickly support the Wei River, which has prevented Cao's army from driving straight in, and the other is to storm Weishui Pass. ”
"This ......" Yuan Shu hesitated, and couldn't make a decision for a while, although it was so, but after a moment of silence, Yuan Shu decisively ordered: "Lead 5,000 soldiers and occupy Weicheng first." ”
The general beside him immediately surrendered his hand and led the army away.
Yuan Shu looked sideways again and asked, "Gong Jin, how about storming Weishui Pass, and what about supporting Weihe?" Although Yuan Shu knew that what Zhou Yu said was true, he and the army under his command at this moment only had these two choices, but he wanted to listen to the analysis in Zhou Yu's heart.
"If the Weishui Pass is taken, even if the Cao army of Yuzhou arrives again, our army can be invincible, but the wall of the Weishui Pass is thick and strong, and I am afraid it will be difficult to break through for a while." Zhou Yu said: "As for supporting the Wei River, although it is far away, our army can also pursue it south, even if it can't catch up with the enemy's army, it can also cut off its grain route, and our army should cooperate with the defenders of Yuzhou, and we will be able to break the Cao army." ”
"Think twice." Yuan Shu frowned slightly, and sighed lightly, he knew in his heart that the decision at this moment was related to the victory or defeat of this battle, and he couldn't make a hasty decision.
"The soldiers are fast, please make a decision quickly." Zhou Yu immediately gave up his hand to persuade.
Weishui closed, the sun was setting, it was dusk, Guo Jia stood with his hands in his hands, still calm and confident.
Guo Jia continued to calculate the changes in the battle situation between the two sides in his heart, and couldn't help but think in his heart: "Hao Zhao can block Zhuge Liang's 100,000 army for more than 20 days with only more than 1,000 soldiers. This Weishui Pass, although not as good as Chencang, is also easy to defend and difficult to attack. ”
