Deng Ai led a group of military horses to gallop in the mountains, Deng Ai, who attacked the mountain capital, was very smart, Cao Cao would definitely not let go of Deng Ai's people, it was really nearly 10,000 horses in the rear that would indeed cause great obstacles to the offensive of the army in Xiangfan, let alone let it go, because there would definitely be a large number of military horses to surround him.

It was Deng Ai who supplied grain and grass in the mountain capital, dragged away most of the carriages and horses, took away all the things that could be brought, and was escorted by the captives to Wudang County, which was dozens of miles north of Jingshan, where Shangyong, where the son Liu Feng and Meng Da were located, and there were nearly 20,000 soldiers and horses.

Deng Ai knew very well that in Jingbei if you want to use the soldiers and horses smoothly, supplies are indispensable, and Huo Yi set off in Deng Ai at the same time, but also sent scouts to Shangyong and Fangling, in order to provide convenience for Deng Ai when he acted in Jingbei, Shangyong is mountainous, although it is impossible to communicate directly with Jingbei, and only a few mountain roads in the Wudang Mountain area communicate.

It was Cao's army that only stationed more than 2,000 military horses in the Zhuyang area, just to be vigilant, because this mountain road was really not enough for large-scale military horses to enter Jingbei.

Wudang was already in sight, and Deng Ai sent out a lot of scouts to find the mountain road, and Huo Yi made an appointment with Deng Ai to connect with the scout mark in the camp.

But it is said that after Deng Ai captured the mountain capital, the scout released finally penetrated the defense line of the Cao army, but in fact, this scout did not pass through the defense line here, but from Zhangling detour to the green forest mountain, and only then arrived at Liqiu near the left of Xiangyang, Huo Yi is the garrison here, Huo Yi heard that Deng Ai's scout had arrived, but he immediately put down all the affairs in his hand and summoned this scout.

After waiting for more than a month, I finally got the news from Deng Ai. Huo Yi was very pleased, but the sailor hired by Wen was defeated by Deng Ai in one fell swoop, and nearly 2,000 people were captured. Wen Ping only took a few hundred guards, and all the ships were burned. The grain and grass in the camp were all taken away by Deng Ai, and Dazhai was burned down.

Huo Yi never thought that Deng Ai would win such a big battle, but he was extremely happy, which meant that the Jingzhou army would take over the initiative in the war in the next time.

Heavy rain has been pouring down since early summer and has been falling for several days. The river is swollen, and according to the flood season, as long as the rain continues for a few more days, the river will overflow the embankment. At that time, it was the time for the military horses of Ganning and Jingzhou to perform.

If Cao Cao wants to continue to keep Xiangfan, it is unlikely, and the Atoushan position must also be withdrawn, otherwise, there will only be one way to perish. To know. Up and down this water, there are Cao Cao's nearly 100,000 military horses, and he can't afford to lose this battle.

Huo Yi passed the news to Guan Yu, and Guan Yu was also extremely happy. Lian ordered all armies to hold their positions and no longer pay attention to Cao's challenge, because as soon as the heavy rain came, it meant that the situation in Jingzhou was about to change.

Tens of thousands of Jingzhou troops set up a water village near the left side of Xiangshui, which was Huo Yi's more than 50,000 infantry, and also built a camp on the mountainside of Liqiu, and ordered Li He's cavalry not to go out of the camp gate for half a step from today.

According to the agreement, Guan Ping led a group of men and horses to start cutting off the flow and storing water in the upper reaches of Xiangshui, and the people in the Xiangfan area also began to forcibly move to Jiangling for Guan Yu, and all preparations were being carried out in an orderly manner.

Cao Cao looked at the situation map in his hand, and soon he noticed something unusual about it, such as Huo Yi's men and horses did not advance to the left of the water, and did not have the intention of confronting Xiahou Yuan in Cai Yang. And Guan Yu also shrank the defensive line, allowing the military horses under his command to fight non-stop, and refused to fight.

He even got the news from the scouts that the people in the Xiangyang area had evacuated from Wangjiangling.

Cao Cao frowned and looked at all the information in his hand: "What do you think it means that Guan Yu and Huo Yi are acting like this?" ”

Xiahoudun already knew the content of this information, and frowned: "Could it be that the Jingzhou army intends to fight a decisive battle with our army?" If not, what is the role of displaced civilians? ”

"Although our army has been at a disadvantage several times, our sergeants and soldiers are all elite soldiers, with the two military horses in Jingnan in Jingzhou, although the number of people is about the same as our army, but if we go head-to-head, I think the Jingzhou army will definitely not be the opponent of our army!" Li Dian said slowly.

"What does General Mancheng mean is that the Jingzhou army is preparing to evacuate Xiangfan?" Zhang He asked in a hoarse voice.

"Guan Yu took a lot of effort to win the two places, how could he hand them over so easily? And these two places are important military places, and with these two places, you will have the capital to look down on Wanluo! In my opinion, Guan Yu is not going to evacuate, but to have no worries and fight to the death with our army! Sima Yi said slowly.

"How should our army respond? The leaders of Qiantou in the Xiangfan area are all people under the rule of our army, and there are tens of thousands of households, just watching the Jingzhou army move away? Li Dian said hurriedly.

"Don't be in a hurry! Yiren saw that Guan Yu was planning an extraordinary thing! The people just don't want to harm the pond fish! Cao Ren seemed to have guessed something, but Guan Yu still hadn't figured out what he was doing.

"The enemy army has tried so hard to make such a detour to attack our army's sailors! Could it be that it has something to do with it? Wen Ping said slowly.

Cao Cao's eyes froze, and Huo got up: "Water attack!" It's the rainy season! Guan Yunchang, 'Huo Shaoxian, this is a big game of chess!' ”

"Yes, Prime Minister! Huo Shaoxian sent his elite to make a detour to attack our army's water division, and after destroying the water division, he shrank the defense line and moved away from Qianshou, no wonder this Huo Shaoxian did not garrison our cavalry on the other side of Caiyang, but stationed in the mountains near the left side of Liqiu, which was to be in the middle of the mountainside, in case the flood was clear! Most of the defenders in Xiangyang are locals of Jingzhou who are familiar with water, and most of the rest are sailors of Gan Xingba. Cheng Yu concluded.

"Gentlemen, what should I do?" Cao Cao's face was gloomy, he was already old, but at this moment, he was ten years old, and he slowly knelt down and sat down on the desk, and said dejectedly.

"Prime Minister, if our army wants to preserve its strength, the only way to retreat to Wancheng is that Wancheng is on higher ground, and it will definitely not suffer from flooding!" Cao Ren said.

"Then, this Xiangfan, is our army going to abandon it?" Cao Cao said helplessly.

"Not only Xiangfan, but also south of Xinye must give up!" Xiahoudun is worthy of being a general, but at this moment, he is extremely aware of the current situation, and he is quite determined to break his wrist.

Cao Cao slowly leaned on the cushion behind him and said slowly: "This Huo Shaoxian, it is indeed not simple!" In the first battle of Hanzhong, although our army was at its peak, he also dared to lead the army to rush into battle; In this battle of Xiangyang, our army was superior to Guan Yunchang, and under his planning, there was nothing to be done but retreat! Damn! ”

All the generals in the tent are silent, in fact, everyone is uncomfortable, this Huo Yi is just a young man who has not reached the weak crown, and he can have such ability, they are veterans who have fought on the battlefield for many years, but they are helpless in front of this young man, but what is it not a joke?

"General! Since our army has nothing to do on the frontal battlefield, it is better to retreat to the area of Xinye, and then mobilize a large army to annihilate Huo Shaoxian's strange troops who are active in Jingbei in one fell swoop! Break Huo Yi's arm! Otherwise, it would be too much to retreat like this! It was Li Dian who spoke.

Cao Cao's eyes flashed with murderous intent: "Let Xiahou Miaocai lead all Cai Yang's cavalry, catch up with Lejin, take Miaocai as the main general, and plan to leave all the men and horses in Jingbei, and don't let go of one!" ”

"Whoa!" The herald under the tent took the order and left.

Cao Cao got up slowly: "Jun Yi led more than 30,000 military horses from the headquarters to garrison the front line of Xinye, Yuyang, and Jianyang, and Mancheng led the military horses of the headquarters to be stationed in Huyang. The rest of the generals will follow me to Wancheng in the center of the mediation! Zhong Ye led the guards to the Suixian area where your sailors were stationed, and all the sailors were dispatched to respond! ”

The generals all stood up: "Oh! ”

Cao Cao looked at the pouring rain outside the hall, and the dim sky was so oppressive. It seems that Liu Bei is really his lifelong enemy, countless times, when he was able to slash it, someone came out of nowhere to save him, it seems that fate is to take care of this grassroots figure from the end of the world, the Han royal family? That's just a joke!

Huo Shaoxian, it is truly hateful!
