Chapter 153: Here comes the opportunity

"Huh? Withdrawn? It's really decisive. ”

The sound of gold and iron can be heard by both warring parties, whether they are friends or foes. When he first heard this voice, Chen Sheng suspected that he had heard it wrong.

Cao Ying actually retreated decisively, and after three bloody battles, both sides suffered great losses, but Cao Ying was not angry.

This made Chen Sheng very regretful.

Because his original plan was Cao Ying's anger, he refused to give up. Then, continue to storm Wancheng. He used the excuse that his soldiers had fought bloody battles for three days and were exhausted. Let Liu Biao's generals assume most of the defense.

In this way, the power of Cao Ying and Liu Biao was consumed. The weakening of the strength of both sides is equivalent to the increase of one's own strength. This is Chen Sheng's shady purpose.

However, in the end, Cao Ying resolutely retreated.

Chen Sheng also had to admit that he had underestimated Cao Ying.

But.

After regretting for a moment, Chen Sheng's face showed a few smiles again, "Even if you want to avoid too much loss and prevent me from becoming bigger, you withdrew from the army." But I also have a way to engage you with General Liu Biao. ”

Of course, Chen Sheng has a way in his heart.

Originally, this method was the king.

Because according to historical tricks, Chen Sheng knew that when Cao Ying attacked Wancheng this time, Yuan Shao would plan to attack Xu Du, and Cao Ying quickly retreated in order to avoid a fire in the rear.

So, Zhang Xiu led the army to pursue and defeated Cao Ying.

In this pursuit battle, Zhang Xiu's performance was actually miserable. But Jia Xu shined.

Zhang Xiu pursued for the first time and returned with a crushing defeat. I wanted to stop, but Jia Xu asked him to pursue again, and Zhang Xiu collected the stragglers with suspicion, so he went to pursue again.

The result was a big break.

The core part of this strategy is the use of surnames. took advantage of Cao Ying's relaxation after defeating Zhang Xiu's pursuers, so Jia Xu let Zhang Xiu take advantage of the situation, and finally achieved the goal of defeating Cao Ying.

Originally, Chen Sheng just wanted to defend the city. Wait for Cao Ying to retreat, and then use this strategy to defeat Cao Ying's. As a result, I didn't expect that things in history didn't happen.

This may have something to do with him killing Guo Tu, or maybe it was something else. But it didn't happen, and it really can't be helped. He can't go to Yuan Shaojin by himself to offer advice and surprise attack Xu Du, right?

Therefore, Chen Sheng could only choose another adventurous plan to attract Cao Ying to attack Wancheng, so as to ask Liu Biao for reinforcements in order to kill two birds with one stone.

And now? Cao Ying didn't give him a chance, and decisively chose to retreat. The strategy of killing two birds with one stone is yellow. However, the opportunity for another pursuit battle is back.

Therefore, Cao Ying's desire to avoid consuming combat power with Liu Biao and letting Chen Sheng sit big, so his desire to withdraw from the army may not be realized.

"The Cao army has withdrawn, the Cao army has withdrawn."

"Mighty, mighty. Wancheng is mighty, and the general is mighty. ”

"Haha, it's been three days, and these dogs have finally retreated."

Just as Chen Sheng was thinking about his next plan, the thoughts in his heart were interrupted by the sound of cheers in the sky.

"After three bloody battles, the soldiers were very tired. Cao Jun retreated, so he naturally felt happy. Chen Sheng was very accustomed to the cheers and did not feel abrupt.

"General."

When it came to Hu Che'er, Zhou Cang, Wei Yan and others were very excited. While the soldiers cheered, these generals gathered in front of Chen Sheng one after another and saluted.

A person was wearing armor, armor, and the embroidered robe behind him was mostly torn, and there was a strong smell of blood on his body. Not only that, but their faces were more or less pale.

Either you're tired, or you're even hurting somewhat. But their eyes and faces were very excited.

Cao Jun has withdrawn, this is a hurdle, and when he has passed, it is the sea and the sky. Those who have heard of Chen Sheng's strategy very well understand this truth very well.

When they think of a bright future, they are naturally excited.

"You all did a very good job in this fight." Chen Sheng nodded with a smile, and then set his eyes on Wei Yan again, with undisguised appreciation in his eyes.

"Especially the bunga. I believe that after this battle, the prestige of Wen Chang will spread to the Central Plains and even further away Hebei with the defeated Cao army. Wei Yan, a native of Yiyang, everyone in the world knows that we have such a fierce general in Wancheng. ”

If there was no Wei Yan in this battle, the city might not be lost, but it was foreseeable that it would be much more difficult. Now that Cao Jun has withdrawn, Chen Sheng will naturally not be stingy with verbal appreciation.

"Everything is the cultivation of the general." Wei Yan, who has always been calm, even a little reserved, and arrogant, had slightly red cheeks at this moment, and bowed to Chen Sheng very excitedly.

There is no half of the water in this gift, if it weren't for Chen Sheng, he would still be Cai's guard and lackey. If it weren't for Chen Sheng, how could he master an army at a young age and become a leading general?

If.

Anyway, if there was no Chen Sheng, there would be no Wei Yan.

Wei Yanfen is very clear about this, and his gratitude in his heart is naturally incomprehensible.

Seeing this, Chen Sheng smiled and didn't say anything, just stepped forward and patted Wei Yan's shoulder. Then he straightened up again, glanced around at the generals, and shouted: "Take care of the wounded soldiers, leave it to the people below for the time being." You go down and wash yourself, and then change your armor. Come with me to meet Wen Ping, Wang Wei, and Yuan Jian, and then discuss the next thing. ”

Chen Sheng's plan to pursue Cao Ying was also unplanned. Therefore, the generals were not told in advance. And now Wei Yan, Zhou Cang, Hu Che'er and others heard that Chen Sheng still had a plan, they were stunned at first, and then their morale was greatly boosted, and they agreed to the promise.

"No."

After agreeing to the promise, the generals dispersed. And Chen Sheng inspected the city wall for a while, and after ordering the officers guarding the city to be on guard, he also went back to the general's mansion.

After returning to the General's Mansion, Chen Sheng took off his armor and took a bath under the service of the maid. Freshly refreshed, he changed into a piece of armor, and then arrived in the hall and waited for the gathering of the generals.

It didn't take long for the generals to arrive in the hall one after another. The generals Wei Yan, Hu Che'er, the near general Zhou Cang, and the long history Fanggu.

According to the intelligence, Wen Ping, Wang Wei, and Yuan Jian should almost arrive. Let's go, follow me to meet these two famous generals in Jingzhou. ”

After everyone arrived, Chen Sheng didn't talk nonsense, greeted him, got up and walked out.

The generals also followed. Then they went together to the south of the city. Chen Sheng traveled with the generals, huddled in front and back, and there were many guards, needless to say.

On the way, Chen Sheng's heart was still a little excited.

The power of Liu Biao in the entire Jingzhou can not be admired by Chen Sheng. Especially among the generals, there are even fewer people who can make Chen Shenggao take a look.

Counting around, there were only three of them.

Huang Zhong, Wen Ping, Wang Wei.

Needless to say, the first two are brave and good generals. The other is a general who is loyal, good at leading troops, and able to defend one side.

In terms of popularity, these two people are, of course, Huang Zhonggao. Most of the Three Kingdoms fans will also like Huang Zhong more. However, in Chen Sheng's opinion, these two people are not compatible.

One is a peerless general, unparalleled in his majesty. The other is a general in the army, which cannot be missing. Both of these people are indispensable presences in the army, and there is nothing comparable to the surname.

Most of this third Wang Wei is not clear. However, as a senior research talent, Chen Sheng has some impressions.

This guy is very bold.

Historically, the Cao army commanded the army to the south, and Liu Cong surrendered to the wind. But at that time, Wang Wei appeared, and he offered Liu Cong a strategy.

This is recorded in the Spring and Autumn Period of the Han and Jin Dynasties. Now Cao Ying already knows that the general (Liu Cong) has surrendered. Liu Bei was defeated and left, Cao Ying must have been defenseless and rode lightly. If the general gives me a soldier and horse, I can capture Cao Ying alive in a battle. If Cao Ying is captured, even if the Central Plains is vast, he can be subdued as long as he passes the text.

According to the situation at the time, this strategy was definitely feasible. If you use it, you may really capture Cao Ying.

Of course, this strategy was eventually refuted by Liu Cong and failed to be implemented. Whether it can succeed or not has become a mystery. However, when most of the people in Jingzhou were willing to surrender at that time, Wang Wei was able to make a decision to start a war against Cao Ying alone, which was rare.

You must know that at that time, Wen Ping was only sad about the loss of Jingzhou, but did not act.

Therefore, Wang Wei is an excellent general and a loyal minister.

Therefore, in Chen Sheng's view, Wang Wei, the general under Liu Biao in Jingzhou, can definitely be among them. As for Liu Biao, Chen Sheng is naturally confident.

As long as you are careful, it is not difficult to defeat Liu Biao and capture Jingzhou.

In other words, generals such as Wenpin, Wang Wei, and Huang Zhong are likely to be subdued. Although, there are currently many generals under Chen Sheng's command.

Zhao Yun, Wei Yan.

Zhou Cang, Hu Che'er, and Liao Hua are also good generals for a while. But after all, it is a little scarce and deserted, if you add Huang Zhong, Wen Ping, Wang Wei and other generals, it can greatly increase the momentum.

Therefore, Chen Sheng was a little excited.

At the same time, Chen Sheng's heart was still a little complicated. He was a little excited, and he couldn't wait to get Wenpin, Wang Wei. However, on the other side, it was an idea to carry out a pursuit battle to consume the troops of Liu Biao and Cao Ying.

That is, calculating Wang Wei and hiring.

"If you want to envelop it, you have to calculate. It's complicated. Chen Sheng's heart was not without a wry smile.

And just when Chen Sheng was pondering Wen Ping and Wang Wei, everyone arrived outside the South City Gate. At the same time, there was a rush of footsteps, the sound of horses' hooves mixed together.

"Da-da-da-da."

Chen Sheng and the others couldn't help but look up, only to see a black line appear on the horizon, and a moment later, a black army appeared.

The flag is unfurled, and the momentum is clear.

It's really a strong army. It happened to be used to merge with Cao Ying's army.

Chen Sheng's heart was both admiration and calculation.
