"Eight Gates Golden Lock Array?"

Seeing this Shan Fu say the name of the opponent's formation, Guan Yu was finally a little impressed by him, so he knew that he definitely didn't know. "Sir, are you sure this is the Eight Gates Golden Lock Array?" Guan Yu asked with some eagerness. This day, he attacked the enemy formation several times, Guan Yu was really miserable, every time he just killed him, he was surrounded by enemies from all directions, and he was almost exhausted to death. If it weren't for Wen Ping and him desperately rushing to kill each other for the last time, I am afraid that they would have to confess.

"It is the Eight Gates Golden Lock Array, today it is said that the prince and the marquis are fighting with the enemy, Shan Fu has watched from the high mountain on the left, and he is sure that this is the Eight Gates Golden Lock Array." Shan Fu smiled. Although Guan Yu has always despised scholars, seeing Shan Fu's relaxed smile at this time, he couldn't help but have some confidence in him.

"Sir knows the enemy's formation, can he crack it?" Guan Yusuo asked directly, this is also the most fatal question!

"This formation is not difficult to break, Ming said that the prince can send a group of men and horses, from the southeast corner to kill, to the west to kill, then the enemy formation will be chaotic. In addition, I see that the Cao army has not put all its forces into this eight-gate golden lock array, and the prince can send two more troops to take advantage of the big array to be broken, covering and killing from both sides, and will definitely break the enemy in one fell swoop! Shan Fu spoke eloquently, his tone full of confidence.

"I see!" Guan Yu didn't understand this formation, and he heard it a little foggy, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed to make sense, and he immediately ordered everyone to come to the big tent to discuss it. After everyone arrived, Guan Yu explained Shan Fu's strategy in detail, and everyone felt that a dead horse should be a live horse doctor, so try it first.

"That's very good, Wen Ping, you will lead 5,000 men and horses tomorrow and enter from the southeast corner." Guan Yu still handed over this most important task to Wen Ping, who was second only to himself in martial arts.

"The last general commands!" Wen Ping responded with a fist. In fact, this expedition finally gave a place to the clerk who had nothing to do in Runan, and even had a painful idle egg. And by fighting side by side on the battlefield, Wen Ping gradually integrated into Guan Yu's circle, unlike before, although everyone didn't know what to say, Wen Ping always felt that the word Jingzhou was written on his head.

"Zhou Cang, Liao Hua, you two each lead 7,000 people. Seeing the Chinese army's red flag waving, he immediately killed from both sides to cover the killing. Guan Yu continued to arrange.

"The last general commands!" Liao Hua and Zhou Cang also agreed in unison. At this moment, a scout came back to report that he saw Shan Fu in the tent but did not dare to speak.

"This is Mr. Shan, if you have something to say, it doesn't hurt to say it!" Guan Yu was happy to pretend to be generous, Shan Fu smiled noncommittally when he heard this, and the scout immediately reported: "General Hui, today the lord is talking about fighting with Cao Jun under Peiguo City." The lord won a small victory, and Cao's army retreated twenty miles to the north to go down to the village. ”

"Good!" Guan Yu was also overjoyed when he heard that Liu Bei had won: "When we break Cao Hong tomorrow, we can join the eldest brother to destroy Cao Ying together." For a while, everyone in the tent also temporarily came out of the shadow of the day's defeat.

Early the next morning, Guan Yu ordered the whole army to advance from the village. After traveling for a few miles, he probed the Malay newspaper, and Cao Hong led the army to block the way. "Follow Mr. Shan's plan!" Guan Yu passed the order, so Wen Ping, Zhou Cang and others acted separately. Shan Fu was half invited by Guan Yu to stay by his side, after all, the heart of defense is indispensable.

The three men and horses were killed from the middle army of Guan Yu's army, and Wen Ping led the army to kill the Shengmen in the southeast corner of the opponent, and then went to Jingmen in the northeast corner. At this moment, Cao's army's formation was suddenly chaotic, first in the southeast corner, and then the entire formation became more and more chaotic.

"Steady, steady!" Cao Hong, who was commanding the Chinese army, saw that something was wrong, and hurriedly gave an order to stabilize it. At this time, Zhou Cang and Liao Hua's two groups of men and horses had also been launched, outflanking and killing Cao Hong's army from both sides.

The way of the formation, in fact, is to seek effective cooperation between large armies, so as to cause more and less in local areas, and then accumulate small victories into big victories. But if an expert sees through your cooperation and targets your weak link, you will lose faster than not following the formation. Cao Ren is like this, and so is Cao Hong. Seeing that Wen Ping, Liao Hua and others had mixed up with their own military formations, Cao Hong knew that the general trend had gone, so he had to lead the remnants of the remnants to join the country of Lu.

"Sir's plan is really wonderful!" Seeing that between the raising of his hand, the enemy's eight-gate golden lock array, which gave him a headache yesterday, collapsed like a devastating one, Guan Yu also thanked Shan Fu with a spring breeze on his face, and at the same time ordered to clean up the battlefield as soon as possible and speed up the march.

"I wonder what the prince is going to do next?" Shan Fu was still relatively calm, just smiled and asked Guan Yu what his next plan was.

"Naturally, it is better to go to Peiguo to meet the eldest brother, which is better than the decisive battle of Cao Jun!" Guan Yu had a natural expression on his face.

"Hehe, Prince. Shan Fu has a plan, so that the prince and Liu Zhijun do not need to fight vigorously, so that Cao Ying has nothing to hide! Shan Fu then explained the plan in detail, and Guan Yu nodded again and again when he heard it, and he was convinced.

"Zhou Cang, how many enemy soldiers have been killed, and how many prisoners have been captured?" Guan Yu saw that the battlefield was almost cleaned, and hurriedly asked Zhou Cang.

"Prince, about 7,000 enemies have been wounded, and more than 4,000 prisoners have been captured, and the specific number is still being counted." Zhou Cang replied honestly.

"There's no need to count, all the captives have been released." Guan Yu waved his hand, and then whispered to Zhou Cang, who was stunned: "You go and select a thousand sturdy school swordsmen, peel off the clothes and armor from the corpse of Cao Jun and change them, mix among the captives and go to Lu State to open the city gate, and I will lead the army to catch up later." ”

"Zhou Cang understands!" Zhou Cang was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood what Guan Yu meant, and went down to select people to arrange them without mentioning it.

More than 4,000 Cao army captives had already been confiscated, and they were almost stripped of their armor, and they were all squatted in a circle by the Yuzhou army guarding them. The fate of prisoners in war is often tragic, with those who are lucky enough to be co-opted or dismissed, and those who are unlucky enough to be slaughtered en masse.

Just when the prisoners of the Cao army were worried about their fate, a captain of the Yuzhou army came up and said loudly: "My prince is kind-hearted and does not want to hurt people's lives. Now that he's going to fight Cao Ying, you guys can't take care of it, get out of here! This man's voice was not small, and although it was in the wilderness, most of the four thousand captives could hear it clearly, and for a time there was an uproar.

"Huh?" The Cao army captives saw that the Yuzhou army really all withdrew and marched to the east of Peiguo, and even no one was left to take care of them, so they believed that Guan Yu really let them go, and they were immediately happy, and many people knelt on the ground to thank Guan Yu for not killing, and then most of them decided to go to Lu to join General Cao Hong. For the rest of their lives, they didn't notice that there were some unfamiliar faces around them.

In the city of Lu Guo, Cao Ren was also relatively speechless when he saw Cao Hong, who was as embarrassed as himself. However, the guard general Li Dian had nothing to do with himself, and he could comfort him for a word or two, and then ordered a banquet to suppress the shock for the two. Cao Ren and Cao Hong were also depressed, and they were a little overwhelmed when they drank.

When the three rounds of wine were over, someone suddenly came to report: "General Li, two General Cao, a large number of our people suddenly came to the city, saying that they are General Zilian's people, who have just been released by Guan Yu and are about to enter the city." ”

"Huh?" Cao Ren and Cao Hong were stunned, and Li Dian felt even more incredible: "How could anyone put the captives back in vain?" ”

"Look at it!" Cao Hong proposed, and the three of them stopped drinking at the moment, and hurriedly went to the city to see what was going on. After a while, the three of them came to the city, and sure enough, there were a large number of Cao soldiers under the city, and almost all of them were unarmed.

"How did you get back?" Cao Ren asked first with a loud voice, and the soldier in the city replied: "General Cao, Guan Yu said that he was going to Peiguo to fight a decisive battle with the prime minister, so he couldn't take care of us, so he let us all go!" ”

"Could it be so?" Cao Ren felt a little unbelievable, and then Li Dian asked: "Zilian, can you see if there is anyone you know, is it the army you lead?" Don't be fooled by Guan Yu. ”

"It's really mine!" Cao Hong really saw a lot of familiar faces at a glance, not only him, but also many other soldiers in the city who recognized their acquaintances. For a while, acquaintances in the city and under the city greeted each other constantly, and it was very lively.

"Guan Yu has always been arrogant, and he must have disdained these pawns, so he let them go." Li Dian said his thoughts half-speculatively, and Cao Ren and Cao Hong nodded again and again, feeling that it made sense.

"Since you are your own people, open the door and let them in!" Cao Ren immediately ordered. So the drawbridge was put down, the city gate was opened, and after a busy work, thousands of people under the city began to enter the city one after another.

However, just as about half of the people entered, some people in the crowd suddenly became angry. Seemingly unarmed, they suddenly took out a short knife several feet long from the armor on their waists one by one, and slashed at some other Cao soldiers. Caught off guard, there was a sudden chaos at the city gate.

"What's going on?" Cao Hong and the others at the head of the city saw it clearly, and before they could deal with it, a black line also appeared in the wilderness far outside the city. Li Dian and the others' faces suddenly changed greatly, and they knew that a large army had come to kill them.

"Pull the drawbridge!" Cao Hong said urgently. But at this time, the city gate was already in chaos, although the Cao army at the head of the city also began to go down to help clear those pretending prisoners, but the chaos was not so easy to deal with. Cao Hong and Cao Ren watched in despair as the chaos under the city continued, the drawbridge could not be pulled up, and the enemy army was getting closer and closer.

Finally, the enemy army in the distance was killed under the city, and the first person with a red face, green robe and golden armor was Guan Yu Guan Yunchang, and the Cao army was invincible everywhere he went. "Let's go, General Cao!" Li Dian looked at Cao Hong and Cao Ren, who had been a little sluggish by this sudden change, and hurriedly beckoned them to run away while Guan Yu's army had not yet fully entered the city.

"Let's go!" Cao Ren glanced at the city, there were more and more Yuzhou soldiers who rushed into the city, although the defenders of Lu also had nearly 20,000, but a large part of them were defeated soldiers brought by themselves and Cao Hong. Cao Ren only glanced at it and knew that the general trend had gone. At the moment, he was no longer dead, and together with Cao Hong and Li Dian, he led a small number of elite soldiers from the West Gate to fight and defect to Cao Ying's army under Peiguo City.

"Sir, it's really clever!" Guan Yu rode into the city of Lu on the red rabbit horse proudly, smiling so that the folds on his face were rippling, and it was Shan Fu who came up with this plan for him beside him. "The prince has won the prize, I don't know what happened to the west?" Shan Fu humbly said, and then asked again.

"Mi Zifang of Liang already has 8,000 defenders, and I ordered Wen Ping to lead 10,000 horses to join him to help him defend the city. Now Cao Ying is the eldest brother to the east, Liang Guo to the west, Peiguo to the south, and us to the north. Unless he can fly, he can't escape! Guan Yu is also full of ambition.

"That's good, I estimate that Cao Ying's grain and grass should be gone soon!" Shan Fu added meaningfully. Guan Yu was stunned for a moment, and then burst into a more hearty laugh.
