Chapter 252: Trap to Trap
"The man is ambitious, and he fights with a weak soldier. What reason do I have to stop it? Cai Yu put away the indifference on his face and asked instead of answering.
"Knowing that you are invincible, you have to fight. How? How? Cai Mao looked helpless and sighed.
"Before the results of the first battle in Jiangbei came, why did my brother know that he was invincible?" Cai Yu's face showed a hint of sarcasm, and said: "How heroic Zhou Yu was at the beginning, raising troops to crusade against Jiangxia, and in the end, he was not beaten down, he accompanied his wife and broke the generals. ”
Cai Mao couldn't help but be speechless for a while, indeed, when Zhou Yu attacked Jiangxia, not many people were optimistic about Liu Feng, but Liu Feng defeated Zhou Yu, and what was even more incredible was that Liu Feng then occupied the four cities of Chaisang, and his power increased greatly.
But even so, Cai Mao still has 10,000 reasons to think that Liu Feng cannot defeat Cao Ren. Although Cai Mao is really optimistic about Liu Feng, strength is strength, and nothing else can make up for it.
"Cao Ren is different from Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu is only a famous general in Jiangdong, while Cao Ren is a famous general in the world, assisting Cao Gong to stabilize the side and make great achievements. What's more, Zhou Yu's strength is not good, and the soldiers are less than 10,000. And Cao Ren's soldiers are 23,000 people. Cai Mao intends to continue to persuade her sister with the theory that the general trend is irreversible.
"Besides, Cao Gong took advantage of the power of the Han Dynasty to sweep the Central Plains. Now that it has begun to take shape, even if Liu Fengzhen defeats Cao Ren, how will he face Cao Gong's anger? Cai Mao raised her head and asked her sister.
"It's useless for you to tell me these things. Anyway, I don't care much about his affairs. Cai Yu stretched out his jade hand and pulled his hair, indifferent.
Looking at Cai Yu's indifferent expression, Cai Mao felt angry.
"It's not that you don't understand these things, in terms of means and reasoning, I am not as good as you. Since you know that Liu Feng has done something wrong, why don't you persuade him? Do you really want to die with him? Cai Mao said angrily.
"What's so bad about dying with him? I'd love to. Cai Yu raised his head and looked at Cai Mao defiantly.
"Ugh." Cai Mao was discouraged for a while, looked at Cai Yu's stubborn face, and opened her mouth to speak, but in the end it only turned into a long sigh.
In front of this sister, he always spoke a little shorter.
Seeing Cai Mao's dejected look, the corners of Cai Yu's mouth were slightly upturned, and she looked a little proud. In front of this brother, she is in an absolute upper hand.
"Do you regret marrying Da'er?" Cai Yu asked with a smile.
"It's a little bit." Cai Mao didn't deny it, nodded, and then sighed: "I knew that he was a masterpiece, but I didn't expect to be a hero." Cao Ying is not easy to mess with, if he misses, he will become a hatred for eternity. My sister, my daughter. Ay. ”
Cai Mao already knew that he couldn't dissuade Liu Feng, and now he only sighed for his sister and daughter. Which day, which day.
This, this sister's daughter, may have become a widow.
Ay.
Cai Yu glanced at Cai Mao when he heard this, and hated that iron could not become steel: "You have said it yourself, whether it is means, knowledge, or vision." You're not as good as I am in everything. ”
"Why can't you turn around now?"
"You're all fascinated by Liu Feng." Cai Mao didn't have a good aura when she heard this. Of course he understands what Cai Yu means, that is, Cai Yu is optimistic about Liu Feng.
But how is this possible, Cao Gong took advantage of the prestige of the Han Dynasty, and there were many generals. Cao Ren failed, and there are countless Cao Ren. How to resist.
"If you don't believe it, forget it, you can go back. Also, if you feel regretful, you can also withdraw from the marriage. Cai Yu was even more angry when he heard this.
"I, Cai Mao, am not the businessman who Feiguan. Since he accepted the dowry, he will definitely not regret it. Cai Mao rolled her eyes when she heard this. But Cai Mao regretted it in her heart. Cai Yu saw it.
"There are no beads in the eyes." Cai Yu said casually.
"You." Cai Mao couldn't cry or laugh, then shook her head and said, "Forget it, I don't care about this matter." ”
But he is dead hearted, and he doesn't plan to spend more time.
"Hmph." Cai Yu didn't appreciate it.
Looking at such a stubborn sister, Cai Mao could only sigh, and she was really confused.
is like Cai Mao, who thinks that it is impossible for Liu Feng to resist Cao Ren, let alone Cao Yan.
But there are also people who don't think so.
Sun Quan doesn't think so.
Wu County, in the study of the Hou Mansion.
Sun Quangao sat on the main seat, and Zhang Zhao and Lu Su were below.
Today, Sun Quan is wearing a green robe, but the edges are red. added a bit of joy to the whole person, in fact, Sun Quan's blue eyes were full of incomparable smiles, and the schadenfreude Lu Su was still the same, quiet, elegant, only when that pair of eyes turned, can you see the wisdom in it.
Compared with Lu Su, Zhang Zhao is a person with the temperament of a heavy minister, his surname is strong and his eyes are sharp. At this moment, Zhang Zhao's eyes were also filled with a smile.
Now Cao Ren is crusading against Jiangxia, and Liu Feng leads his troops to stay in Jiangbei and fight to the death with Cao Ren. It's not far from death. Zhang Zhao smiled and raised his fist to Sun Quandao.
"Hehe, not only is it beyond my strength. is also brainless, as a prince, he only cares about the gains and losses of one city and one place, and rashly uses foot soldiers to fight against the strong soldiers of the Central Plains. It's no different from taking one's own chance. Sun Quan agreed, and said.
Compared with the joy of these two people, Lu Su is very restrained. Although he watched Liu Feng eat deflated, he was also very happy. But after all, there is still sanity.
"It's best to be crippled and not dead, if Liu Feng is defeated, or even dead. Jiangxia must be in turmoil, Cao Ren will have the opportunity to cross the Yangtze River to fully control Jiangxia, when the time comes, the Yangtze River will be occupied for a while, and Jiangdong will be in danger. Lu Su said worriedly.
Lu Su's worries are now terrifying.
made Sun Quan's whole person sober up, he put away the smile in his eyes, nodded and said in a deep voice: "What Zijing said is reasonable, and it is almost a big thing." ”
Immediately, Sun Quan quickly turned his head and asked Zhang Zhaodao: "Which one of the Jiangdong Navy can spare time to go on the expedition now?" ”
At present, the Shanyue in Jiangdong is in turmoil, and it has fallen into a white heat, and Jiangdong is comprehensively encircling and suppressing Shanyue. Regardless of the navy, the foot soldiers have already entered the battle.
All kinds of armies, all kinds of people, things are heavy. Even Sun Quan couldn't figure it out. But this is not difficult for Zhang Zhao, an important minister in Jiangdong.
He frowned and thought for a moment, then raised his head and said: "Former captain Zhou Tai, who returned from the expedition to Wuxing Mountain, is now resting in the Wuhu area, and can be transferred for the time being." ”
"Well, let him go around the waters around Jiangxia. When the news of Cao Ren's defeat of Liu Feng came out, if Cao Ren didn't cross the river, leave him alone. If Cao Ren crosses the river, he will face it head-on. Drive Cao Ren back to Jiangbei. Sun Quan nodded and ordered decisively.
Immediately, a cold flash flashed in his eyes, and he said: "Whether it is the Yangtze River or Jiangxia, it is Jiangdong." No one wants to get involved. ”
Jiangdong under Sun Quan's rule had an unusual desire for the Yangtze River.
This is a complex emotion of being strong on the outside and weak on the inside. If there was no Yangtze River, Sun Quan knew that it would be difficult for him to resist Cao Ying. If there is no Yangtze River, the Sun clan will be destroyed.
Therefore, Sun Quan also has a great desire for Jingzhou, which sits on the upper reaches of the Yangtze River.
Anyway, no matter who it is, they don't want to share the Yangtze River with the Sun family. Liu Cong and Liu Feng in the upstream, in Sun Quan's eyes, are all targets to be eliminated.
"No." Zhang Zhao had no objection to this and promised to do so.
"Now it depends on whether Liu Feng is crippled and died, or crippled but not dead." Sun Quan nodded, a sneer reflected in his blue eyes.
There was a dark curtain all around, that is, there were no stars to show the way, and there was no moonlight that shone dimly.
Near the north gate of Liucheng, a large number of people gathered.
Liu Feng, Pang Tong, Deng Ai, Chen Da, and Zhang Gui are all there, and the rest are all dressed in ordinary clothes, only Zhang Gui is wearing armor, wearing a tasseled helmet, and holding a steel knife in his hand.
There was a cold glint in his eyes.
Behind him were a thousand soldiers, all armed with steel swords.
"Remember, the main thing is to disturb, and you must not be strong." In front of Zhang Gui, Liu Feng whispered.
"Rest assured, your subordinates will not be brave." Before the battle, Liu Feng had already told him three or twice, but Zhang Gui was not a little impatient in his heart.
Only full of gratitude.
Tonight's task is heavy, and the leading generals must give it their all. But at this time, Liu Feng told him not to be reckless.
How could Zhang Gui not be moved in his heart?
"My lord." Pang Tong reminded softly beside him.
The task at night is very heavy, and the time must be calculated very accurately. Now Zhang Gui must go.
"Go ahead." Liu Feng nodded at Pang Tong, then turned his head to Zhang Guidao.
"No." Zhang Gui promised, and then, he resolutely turned around, passed through a thousand soldiers, and stood at the forefront.
It was at this moment that the sound of chains turning faintly sounded at the head of the city, and soon after, with a slight sound, the drawbridge was lowered and the gate was opened.
Not far away, Cao Ying, who was flashing with a faint firelight, also appeared in front of everyone's eyes. Tonight's goal, that's there.
"Kill." A low roar erupted from the depths of Zhang Gui's throat, and then, his footsteps rushed forward, killing Cao Ying with a knife.
"Kill." A thousand soldiers roared in their hearts, followed Zhang Gui's footsteps, and rushed out.
"Take care." Seeing that all the 1,000 soldiers were killed out of the city, Liu Feng said in his heart. Then he turned his head and glanced at Pang Tong, and walked to the stone steps next to the city gate.
Walked into the city. Pang Tong, Deng Ai, Chen Da and others also followed.
"Whether it's a half-win or a full victory, it's up to Zhang Sima." In front of the city gate tower, Pang Tong faced the direction of Cao Ying and said in a low voice.
"Hmm." Liu Feng nodded, and then looked dead in the direction of Cao Ying.
Attacking the camp tonight was a small plan that Pang Tong came up with.
After some humiliation, the morale of Cao Ying's soldiers should have dropped slightly. This is a great opportunity to attack the enemy camp, but the so-called great opportunity, in the hands of some capable generals, may turn into a trap.
Would Cao Ren be stupid enough not to strengthen his guard when his morale is declining?
Therefore, Zhang Gui's attack on the camp was just a feint. There were two night attacks at night, one was executed by Zhang Gui, and the other was the final killer weapon, the Fire Bull Array.
It was now about early in the morning, led by Zhang Gui and a thousand elites, attacking Cao Ying at night. Cao Ying, who had strengthened his vigilance, must have been prepared in advance to meet the attack.
Zhang Gui will definitely be defeated. But a seed was planted. Seeds of laxity.
Cao Ren probably couldn't have imagined that after a failed night attack, Liucheng would have a second night attack, and it was a majestic fire bull array.
When the time comes, Cao Ren will be defeated like a mountain in a battle.
That's a total win. And if the Fire Ox Formation was used at the beginning, Cao Renda could abandon the camp and leave with some of his soldiers.
In the end, it can only be a half-win.
The difference is huge, so Liu Feng endured the pain and let Zhang Gui take a risk. Just to let Cao Ren lose a battle, just like Zhou Yu.
Once Liu Feng incorporated Zhou Yu's defeated army, which was a shortcut that could directly turn other people's soldiers into soldiers for his own use.
At present, he sits on three counties, and his population and power have increased greatly, but the army is only 20,000 people, which is too little, too little.
And Cao Ren's elite of a hundred battles, if it is absorbed, has too many benefits in terms of time and energy compared to recruiting new soldiers and then training them into an army.
Liu Feng's eyes were hot.
With the killer feature of the Fire Bull Array, no matter how majestic Cao Ren's momentum is, no matter how strong Cao Ren's soldiers are, no matter how vast Cao Ren's generals are.
Cao Ren is destined to be the second Zhou Yu.
Defeated, lost city, lost army.
It's nice to have phoenix chicks. Liu Feng turned his head slightly, looked at Pang Tong next to him, and felt happy in his heart.
At the beginning of Xiangyang's entourage, there were Pang Tong, Ma Liang, and Iraq. Now Pang Tong is a general, for a plan. Ma Liang was the county guard, and he was an envoy from Iraq.
One by one, they have become the pillars of Jiangxia.
The north of the city, in the dark.
Zhang Gui led a thousand soldiers to advance in the dark, although he couldn't see the surroundings clearly, but the goal was very clear. Just keep moving in the direction of Cao Ying.
The distance between Cao Ying and Liucheng is not far, about one mile. In an instant, Zhang Gui led his soldiers to the vicinity of Cao Ying in the dark.
At the front of the army, Zhang Gui was lying on the ground, and beside him were several battalion marquis.
"It's best to succeed in robbing the camp later, if not, leave immediately." Zhang Gui turned his head and ordered.
Liu Feng's specific plan was only told to Zhang Gui, and the rest of the people only got orders, thinking that tonight was just an ordinary robbery. I don't know, there is also the existence of the Fire Bull Array.
Even these military marquis don't know.
This is to prevent someone from being captured by mistake and leaking the news. Let the fire bull array be a big killer out of order.
"No." Several military marquis listened carefully to Zhang Gui's instructions and promised to do so.
Zhang Gui let go of his heart when he heard this, and looked at Cao Ying intently. The position they are in now is not where the main entrance is.
To enter the camp, you must climb over or tear down the fence of the Cao camp.
Through the wooden fence, Zhang Gui carefully observed the patrol of Cao Ren's army. A quarter of an hour later, Zhang Gui concluded from the number of patrols and the scale that the precautions were very average.
Neither tight nor loose. So so.
But Zhang Gui sneered, and Liu Fengqian told him that Cao Ren was a powerful opponent. It is impossible to be defenseless.
In other words, this is not tight, and the normal defensive force should be made. For the sake of temptation, others come to the door.
Simply put, it's a trap.
And now, Zhang Gui is going to step on this trap in order to pave the way for the later fire bull array.
pave the way and send Cao Ren a happy defeat.
"Kill." With an inaudible shout, Zhang Gui led a thousand people and killed Cao Ying.
