The fifth year of the Warring States period, May, the beginning of the year.

Guandu.

This is a big city, in fact, it is just a small town, the scale is not large, but the geographical location is very special, located in the fortress place of the southern region of the Yellow River.

Along the small town of Guandu, stretching left and right, within the area that stretches for hundreds of miles, there are undulating hills and slopes, which is a natural battlefield.

The Wei and Jin kingdoms combined were nearly a million soldiers, and in this area, a tragic battlefield has been formed.

The main forces of the two sides circled between Guandu and Zhongmu.

Zhongmu Mountain, which is a hillside less than twenty miles away from the frontal battlefield, is also the main tent of the Wei army's command, standing on the hillside, the sound of the battle in front seems to be faintly transmitted.

The Chinese army battalion.

At this moment, Cao Cao maintained a military uniform, full of spirits, and his eyes were staring at the huge combat sand table.

Both sides have exhausted their strength to eat, and in just two days, the Wei army has paid more than 20,000 lives, and the Jin army is not comfortable, and their casualties in the main attack are even worse.

Under such heavy casualties, both sides gritted their teeth and were in a stalemate, and Yuan Shao and Cao Cao both knew that success or failure was in one move.

"King, the Jin army on the front line has been fully extinguished, storming General Zhang Liao's main defense line, General Zhang Liao retreated three miles, retreated to the second line of defense, relying on April Ridge, is defending, General Zhang Liao sent a messenger to ask, when can you attack with all your strength?"

Everyone was about to discuss the military situation, and a herald opened the curtain, hurriedly walked in, and bowed his hand.

'It's not the time yet, let him keep defending, when necessary. You can retreat to Zhongmu Mountain! Cao Cao said calmly: "Sue sù Zhang Liao, you must be calm, drag Yuan Shao's main force, without Lone's order, absolutely do not attack!" ”

"No!"

The herald nodded

"Zhongde. Is there any news from the tiger and leopard riding? Cao Cao looked at the voice of the herald, his own was also a little uncontrollable, his eyes swept over a few people, and asked coldly.

"Nope!"

When Cheng Yu heard this, he hurriedly shook his head, glanced at Cao Cao, and said in a low voice: "King, the news of coming back yesterday, they are just Fengqiu. It is expected that it will attack the black nest at night tonight, what is the situation of the black nest now, and there is no accurate news coming back? ”

"Damn it!"

Cao Cao smashed his fist on the frame of the sand table, his eyes were cold: "If Zhang Liao's main force is attacked so fiercely by the Jin army, I'm afraid things will change!" ”

"King, don't worry!"

Xi Zhicai stood beside Cao Cao, squinting slightly. His gaze swept over a terrain line on the sand table and said, "General Zhang knows it in his heart. If he is in difficulty, he is not asking for an attack, but asking for help, Guandu, Zhongmu, and Jiluoshan. Three terrains, in this triangular terrain terrain, include Hengyang Road, April Ridge, and Baigu Plank Road. Small Sandwich ...... This place has already been deployed by General Zhang Liao to form an impermeable defense line, interlocking, gathering can be attacked, scattered can be defended! ”

Zhang Liao is worthy of being a handsome talent, in the past, Lu Bu used Zhang Liao as a charging general, it was a waste of talent, and the competition between Jiujiang and Zhao Yun was only a partial confrontation, and now the right to control the dispatch of the army, Zhang Liao's ability suddenly broke out.

The whole layout, if it weren't for the detailed march map they were given, would have been a little incredulous.

"Zhang Liao has indeed done a good job, even beyond Lone's expectations, but we can't underestimate Yuan Shao!" Cao Cao was originally a battle-hardened general, he was not carried away by Zhang Liao's ability, his face was calm, his eyes looked at the sand table, and he said in a low voice: "Zhang Liao's entire defense line seems to be invulnerable, and it will move the whole body, but we all know that his troops are insufficient, and thirty percent of the area is using the empty city plan, which can't be hidden for long, if it is within three days, and then can't take the black nest, we will be in trouble!" ”

The strength of the Wei army is not weak, but it is always somewhat inferior to the Jin army, and it can be mixed up when it is concentrated to attack, but once the defense is dispersed, the hidden danger of insufficient troops will break out.

Moreover, they have the strength to resist the Jin army, and they will suffer heavy casualties if they win, and now they can only rely on breaking through the black nest and shaking the enemy's military heart, so that they can achieve the greatest victory with the weakest casualties.

"King, this matter is really in a hurry!" Xi Zhicai smiled slightly bitterly, he naturally knew, but he couldn't be in a hurry, he said softly: "We must believe in the tiger and leopard ride!" ”

"If Lone didn't believe in the Tiger and Leopard Ride, how could he give them Rusi's important task, and also lend them Xu Chu, the guard next to Lonely!"

Cao Cao put his hands behind his back, sighed, his eyes flickered, and a trace of worry flashed, and said: "It's just that their speed is still a little too slow, and there is no news coming back for a long time, and Gu is a little uneasy in his heart after all." ”

"It's Wu Guo that the king is worried about, right?"

When Xi Zhicai heard this, his eyes moved, and he said softly.

According to today's sobriety, the victory of the Wei army is seventy percent certain, and in this case, Cao Cao is still worried, it must be that he is worried that Cheng Biting Jin will suddenly kill him.

"Well, this is Jia Xu's secret letter!"

Cao Cao nodded, then took out a secret letter from his sleeve and handed it to Xi Zhicai: "Take a good look, one night in Xuanwu Gate, Sun Zhongmou actually calmed down the civil strife in Wu without much effort, and there was no bloody battle in Jinling City after we imagined, Sun Zhongmou, this bastard boy really made Gu have to marvel, and he unknowingly sent 100,000 elite soldiers into Jinling City, and laid the results one by one!" ”

Jia Xu stole chickens this time, and the entire ghost stronghold in Jinling City was served in one pot, and he himself was burned because of the fire; Back.

Although he had an underground underground tunnel and escaped from Jinling City with difficulty, he was chased and killed by Jinyiwei all the way, and when he returned to Xudu, he had half a life left.

"Sun Ce is not dead?" Xi Zhicai took the secret letter, looked at it, and looked slightly moved, he was not surprised that Sun Quan could win the championship, but Sun Ce actually survived, he was a little surprised: "Could it be that Sun Zhongmou is soft-hearted?" ”

"It's hard to say!"

Cao Cao shook his head, his eyes flickered slightly, and said: "Sun Ce is still locked up in prison by him, whether he is dead or alive, it is difficult to say now, Sun Zhongmou may really have some women's kindness, but he is not very like a person who does not understand the overall situation!" ”

In his opinion, maybe Sun Ce still has to die.

It is inevitable that he will not leave Sun Ce as a person who threatens his throne.

"My lord, that's not how I see it!"

Xi Zhicai's eyes were like rainbows, the corners of his mouth outlined a trace of an indifferent smile, and he said in a low voice: "If Sun Quan wants to kill Sun Ce, Sun Ce is already dead in Xuanwu Gate, since Sun Ce survived in Xuanwu Gate, Sun Quan should not be able to do it again, I estimate that Sun Ce may not be able to die!" ”

"So, we still have a chance to stir up!" Cheng Yu suddenly smiled gloomily.

"Difficult!"

Cao Cao thought about it, but shook his head and said: "In the battle of Xuanwu Gate, we exposed too much power of ghosts, Sun Yi couldn't support the wall, Wei Teng was also an old fool, we simply used the wrong power, and were swept away by Jinyiwei, and now our Wei State is in Jinling City, it is a blank, and it is difficult to provoke!" ”

"That's not necessarily, it's just man-made!" Xi Zhicai smiled coldly and said: "Since Sun Quan left Sun Ce, this is the biggest flaw, if we don't make good use of it, how can we be worthy of his kindness!" ”

For Sun Quan to leave Sun Ce, Xi Zhicai felt that it was a godsend.

There are no two days, there are no two monarchs in the country, he doesn't believe that a person with a domineering and arrogant character like Sun Ce will willingly accept defeat, as long as he provokes it, and Wu Guo will make another civil strife, which is just around the corner.

"Okay, we will discuss the affairs of Wu Guo later, now it is a bit too much to say this, and now I am thinking about whether Sun Quan will participate in the battle of Guandu!"

Cao Cao's eyes narrowed slightly, his expression was a little worried, he gritted his teeth gently, and said in a low voice: "Wu Guo's national strength is strong, the soldiers are good and the food is sufficient, we cannot be underestimated, now the current situation, Sun Quan is already a stable overall situation, if he gritted his teeth and wanted to make up 100,000 elite soldiers, it is not impossible, when the time comes, he can directly affect the situation of the battle of Guandu!" ”

Guandu, this battle is too important.

The two overlords of Wei and Jin, whoever loses will be in a state of collapse, and whoever wins will become the overlord of the entire northern land. (To be continued......)
