Chapter 743: The Tiger Captures the Dragon
Chapter 743: The Tiger Captures the Dragon (Second Update)
This excerpt is Xu Shu's strategic explanation of the Central Plains.
At the beginning, Kou Feng saw that Zhao Yun's elite cavalry was already worthy of a battle, and he could compete with the Xiliang Iron Cavalry. He was also worried that if he sent troops to Xishu, he was afraid that Cao Cao would take the opportunity to kill Ma Teng and Han Sui.
Therefore, Zhao Yun was left to Xu Shu and Xu Shu was given command. When Cao Cao made a move, he attacked the Central Plains. Because Kou Feng knew that if Cao Cao killed Ma Teng, Han Sui.
Then you have to take all the tigers and leopards to ride. Ma Teng, Han Sui's army is mostly cavalry, if Cao Cao does not have a tiger and leopard to ride, he will definitely not be able to take it.
Therefore, Zhao Yun's 30,000 iron horsemen galloped through the Central Plains, breaking this city today and that city tomorrow. Stir the Central Plains into a ball of porridge.
Cao Cao also had to return to the army to rescue like a burning butt. At that time, Zhao Yun had already flown back to Wancheng.
That's what Kou Feng's plan is.
But Xu Shu is in Wancheng, the sources are more well-informed, and the ambition is greater. I heard that Cao Cao sent Zhu Ling to lead an army of 20,000 and camp in Xudu to protect the safety of the grain route.
couldn't help but have the idea of letting Zhao Yun eat Zhu Ling, and had a detailed plan.
There are Xu Shu, Zhao Yun, and Wei Yan. Kou Feng was also very relieved, believing that this battle would definitely be a complete victory.
And the reason why Kou Feng laughed out loud was that it was because it was because he could eat Zhu Ling's 20,000 elite horses. Instead, Gongsun Kang refused to trade war horses.
Gongsun Kang on the front foot refused to trade the war horse, and this back foot could break Zhu Ling's 20,000 iron horses. Captured horses. Isn't that a great thing?
You must know that Cao Cao sits in the north, and there are many war horses. The general equipment is one person and two horses. The tiger and leopard ride is one man and three horses. If Zhu Ling is broken, at least 30,000 war horses can be captured.
Coupled with the 80,000 war horses that Zhao Yun himself has, he can order Zhao Yun to increase his troops to 50,000 after this war. Fifty thousand iron horsemen.
The majesty shook and the entire Central Plains groaned.
At this moment, Kou Feng swept away the bad mood caused by the bad things on Gongsun Kang's side. It's refreshing.
"When the day comes, I will destroy your Gongsun Kang and set foot in Liaodong and the Korean Peninsula." Immediately, Kou Feng's eyes flashed, and Sen Han said. Originally, although Kou Feng knew that all the princes in the world were enemies, there were no allies who were not allies. But Gongsun Kang cut him off at a critical moment. still makes Kou Feng very unhappy.
When there is a chance, Kou Feng will definitely level Gongsun Kang.
On the other hand, because of his big heart, Kou Feng didn't want to sit here anymore.
Although the dragon and tiger are lying in front of them, they have to attack in the end to see who has the bigger fist.
"Order, the whole army will rest for three days first, and wait for the third day, and then pull out the camp to attack Fuling." Kou Feng finally made up his mind and ordered loudly.
"No."
Outside the tent, the guards made a promise and quickly gave Kou Feng's order.
"Under the strong soldiers of the Lonely Chu State, there is no concept that a strong dragon does not suppress the head snake." After giving the order, Kou sealed the big tent of the Chinese army, raised his head and looked in the direction of Fuling, and said.
On that day, in the Chu army camp, most of the soldiers began to rest. Only a part of the remaining soldiers patrolled the camp to guard against Zhang Ren and Yan Yan's possible robbery of the camp.
Prepare for the attack on Fuling three days later.
…
Jiangyang.
This city, located in the rear of Ba County, is the only way to enter Chengdu. But one is not dangerous, and the other is that because of Yan Yan in front of him, Zhang Ren is in the way.
Therefore, although it was a time of war, Jiangyang still seemed very peaceful and healthy.
Jiangyang is too guarded, and Ma Feng's mood is naturally excellent. Especially today, Ma Feng also received news that Kou Feng's army has been stationed in the Fuling area for two days.
You can't move forward. seemed to be intimidated by Zhang Ren and Yan Yan's army. The mood is even better.
"Even if Kou Feng dominates the southeast, but in the face of the mountains and rivers of my Shu land, he can only be in a hurry." Taishou Mansion, in the study, Ma Feng smiled, feeling very happy.
The reason why a separatist regime emerges in one place is because the whole place has common interests. Dongzhou Shi and Liu Zhang have common interests.
As a member of Dongzhou Shi, Ma Feng is naturally very loyal to Liu Zhang. Because now that Liu Zhang is in power, Dongzhou Shi can gain a firm foothold.
If Kou Feng comes, I don't know what the situation will be.
Because he was in a relaxed mood, Ma Feng wanted to go to Zhuge Liang's side.
It was Kou Feng who killed Liu Bei back then, and now Kou Feng's army is overwhelmed. Maybe it's an opportunity to ask him to go out of the mountain and help Yizhou.
I really admire Zhuge Liang's talent too much, so as soon as this idea came out of Ma Feng's heart, Ma Feng couldn't sit still. Out of the study, he ordered to the doorman: "Prepare the carriage, I will go to Fucun." ”
"No." The doorman said yes and immediately turned to prepare.
Soon after, Ma Feng rode out of the city in a carriage and went to Fucun.
Originally, Zhuge Liang's reputation was very great, and many scholars usually came to make friends with Zhuge Liang. Now that the war is together, it is a lot colder.
Because Ma Feng is also a frequent visitor to the mansion, Ma Feng arrived outside Zhuge Liang's mansion as soon as he arrived. The porter in charge of guarding the door immediately invited Ma Feng in.
And, I came to report Zhuge Liang.
In the study, Zhuge Liang was originally reading a book, but I heard that Jiang Yang was too guarded by the horse. Thinking about Ma Feng's enthusiasm for many days and the current situation, I couldn't help but guess a little bit of meaning.
I couldn't help but sigh slightly, and said sorry in my heart.
It is absolutely impossible for him to enter Liu Zhang's mansion as a minister.
However, Zhuge Liang still has to give Ma Feng's face. Therefore, Zhuge Liang first sent the porter who came in to report, then changed his clothes and came to the hall to see Ma Feng.
"Lord Taishou." Zhuge Liang saluted towards Ma Feng.
"I've been friends with Kong Ming for many days, why are we still seeing each other like this." Ma Feng said with a slight displeasure.
"Brother." Zhuge Liang smiled slightly bitterly when he heard this, and hugged his fists and called his brother.
"Hehe, Brother Xian." Ma Feng was overjoyed and said.
Immediately, the two sat down together. Although Ma Feng was pleased with Zhuge Liang's virtuous brother, he also knew that this was not necessarily Zhuge Liang's promise to join Liu Zhang's account as a minister.
Therefore, it quickly calmed down. And said: "Brother Xian should know about the Chu army's entry into Shu." ”
"Chu Jun personally led the elite troops into Shu, and the land of Shu shook. Almost everyone knows it. Zhuge Liang nodded.
"Hehe, I'm afraid I don't know that Kou Feng has been blocked in Ba County, east of Fuling, and he can't enter, it's been two days." Ma Feng said with a smile.
"Oh." Zhuge Liang sighed, but the expression on his face did not change.
Ma Feng didn't pay much attention to it, he just continued to say excitedly: "The mountains and rivers of my Shu land are dangerous, even if he gallops southeast and shocks the Central Plains. I'm afraid I have to hate it, this time General Yan Yan of Bajun and General Zhang Ren of Fuling blocked Kou Feng from the mountains and rivers, which is the first step. The second step is to annihilate Kou Feng's elite soldiers. made him lose his courage and no longer dare to underestimate Shudi. ”
"And Liu Yuzhou, the old master of the virtuous brother, was killed by Kou Feng. I don't know if the virtuous brother wants to go to the front line in person and sit and watch Kou Feng's defeat? Immediately, Ma Feng said tentatively.
Zhuge Liang smiled slightly when he heard this, shook his head, and said: "If you haven't fought with Kou Feng, you will never know how powerful Kou Feng is." As he spoke, Zhuge Liang paused, and recalled in his mind the past events of Liu Bei, Zhou Yu, Cao Cao and others who fought with Kou Feng. He sighed and said, "His strength lies in the endless means. It's hard to prevent. ”
"Brother Xian doesn't believe Zhang Ren, and the two generals Yan Yan can't kill Kou Feng?" After Ma Feng listened to Zhuge Liang's words, he couldn't help frowning. Not displeasure, but unbelief.
"It's not that there is no chance, but it is not a chance." Zhuge Liang nodded calmly and said.
Zhuge Liang had already been optimistic about Kou Feng, and naturally he was full of confidence in Kou Feng.
Ba County, the area around Fuling, is indeed very dangerous. Yan Yan and Zhang Ren are also loyal and brave generals, very outstanding. But Zhuge Liang still thinks that Kou Feng can break through Bajun and Fuling.
Ma Feng admired Zhuge Liang's talent very much, so he trusted Zhuge Liang very much. Hearing Zhuge Liang say this, looking at Zhuge Liang's expression again, it didn't look like a joke.
suddenly became worried, and even the idea of recruiting Zhuge Liang fell to the bottom.
If the city is broken, Shu will be occupied by Koufeng. What kind of talent are you recruiting? Because of his worry, Ma Feng hurriedly talked to Zhuge Liang for a few words and left.
"With today's situation, it's just a game of chess. Only the two of them were playing against each other, and the rest had long since been excluded from the chessboard. It's just that the person concerned doesn't know it. ”
Zhuge Liang stood at the door, looked at the back of Ma Feng leaving in a hurry, and sighed.
Immediately, I began to think about it secretly. If Kou Feng broke Fuling, after Ba County, arrived in Jiangyang, what should he do?
Zhuge Liang also has troubles.
…….
On the day Kou Feng ordered to rest for three days, and then tried to attack Fuling first to see the morale of Zhang Ren's army and the solidity of the city.
It's the third day.
At this moment, the Chu army camp, the Chinese army tent.
Kou Feng and Pang Tong, Deng Ai, Chen Da and others sat down respectively. Kou Feng himself also put on armor, looking like he was about to go on an expedition.
"Now that we have rested for three days, the soldiers' physical strength is already very abundant. And if you want to enter Shu, you must break through Fuling and Bajun. There is no other way, and if you sit down again, it is just time to give Yan Yan and Zhang Ren more time to prepare. Lone decided to send troops to attack Fuling today. ”
As he spoke, Kou Feng raised his head and glanced at the generals in the tent, and ordered: "Deng Ai, Chen Da, Xiang Pet." ”
"Your Majesty." Deng Ai, Chen Da, and Xiang Pet all walked out and greeted Dao.
"The three of you ordered 3,000 crossbowmen and 27,000 foot soldiers, and attacked Fuling with Gu."
"No." The three of them agreed in unison, and immediately turned around and walked out.
After the three of them walked out, Kou Feng turned to Pang Tong and said, "The camp will be handed over to Shi Yuan." ”
"Your Excellency can rest assured." Pang Tong nodded and said.
"Okay." Kou Feng shouted hello. Then he stood up and walked out of the Chinese army's tent.
Soon after, Kou Feng, Chen Da, Xiang Chong, and Deng Ai led 30,000 soldiers and horses, some ladders and other siege equipment, to Fuling to kill.
Knowing that there were dragons and tigers lying in front of him, Kou Feng still wanted to subdue the tiger and capture the dragon.
