After breakfast the next day, when Liu Cong came to see, he saw that Zhou Cangxing Daorong had already arranged the formation, waiting for Cao Bing to come over to fight the pass.

Zhou Cang was holding a big knife and standing on the stone wall on the left, and Xing Daorong was also holding a big knife, standing on the stone wall on the right.

Behind the soldiers, there were piles of artillery stones, wood, and some weapons such as swords, clubs, and arrows, which were scattered aside.

Liu Cong observed carefully, and saw that there were a lot of wood and stones, but there were not many cannon stones, and there were more than a dozen baskets scattered and arranged.

Inside the basket is lime powder collected from the battlefield, which is used instead of cannon stones.

Liu Cong felt that this cannon stone was a killer weapon to stop Cao Bing. Use these things to block Cao Bing's attack, you can get excellent results, lime powder kills, into a cloud of dust in Cao Bing's camp, Cao Bing's eyes are burned blurred, breathless, tears and snot flow, road targets are invisible, how to wield a knife and a gun to play with a bow and arrow to kill?

The success of the blocking battle a few days ago was mainly due to the role of this artillery stone.

Now that there are fewer of them, there is nowhere to get them for a while, although there are a large number of stones and horizontal logs, which can also block the attack of a group of Cao soldiers. However, it is not always as effective as this lime block.

Zhou Cangxing Daorong also knew this, but the two of them were very confident, thinking that even relying on the swords, guns, swords, and halberds of mountains, stones, woods, and swords, it was enough to block Cao Bing's attack.

So they all waited there with confidence, ready to fight Cao Bing.

Liu Cong looked at these weapons and felt that although the lime blocks were gone, these dozen baskets of lime powder were raised from the air and fell into the Cao soldiers' formation, which was enough to form a large cloud of mist that filled the Cao soldiers, so he was relieved.

So, Liu Cong took Liang Zhu'er and Lai Fat Ma Pole, waved his hand at Zhou Cangxing Daorong, flew up to the Snow King, and went to inspect in the direction of Xinye.

The road from Quewei Slope to Xinye District, although it is an official road, is not spacious, but it is just a mountain road, climbing up a mountain ridge in a zigzag, and then down to a valley, so it comes up and down, crosses more than a dozen mountain beams, and walks on hundreds of miles of road to reach Xinye City.

On both sides of this official road, most of the road is overgrown with shrubs and weeds.

At this time, it happened to be the end of autumn and the beginning of winter, after the autumn wind, the bitter frost has fallen, and the shrubs and wild grasses have lost their luxuriant scene after the wind and frost, and just stand silently by the roadside.

The autumn wind blew, and the shrubs and grass made a burst of rope sounds, and they looked at Liu Cong in confusion as they passed in front of them, and they didn't know what they were thinking.

Liu Cong rode on the horse, thinking as he walked, thinking: "With such a road surface, Zhou Cang and Xing Daorong are enough to stop Cao Bing for more than ten days. Well, if you attack with fire, as long as the ambush is good and the design is proper, fire attack is an excellent tactic to eliminate Cao Bing. However, the shrubs and wild grasses that spread all over the mountains have withered to such an extent that when they meet Mars, it will not be burned in the sky. ”

Thinking of this, a sea of fire appeared in front of Liu Cong's eyes, only to see the fire soaring into the sky, the smoke was filled, and wherever he looked, where could he still distinguish the heaven and the earth, only the flames and blue-black smoke in the sky were filled, and everywhere was Cao Bing who was burned to his fists and feet, crying his father and calling his mother, rolling all over the ground, hugging his head and running around??????

As soon as Liu Cong thought of this, he immediately denied his idea: "No." Cannot be attacked with fire.

My conventional tactics are enough to defeat Xiahou Yuan, so why bother attacking with fire?

Besides, if Xiahou Yuan is burned to death this time and tens of thousands of Cao soldiers are killed, it will definitely arouse Cao Cao's vigilance and anger, and maybe that old man will leave Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang and bring his troops back to fight a decisive battle with me.

I'm not afraid of that old man, I've been thinking about fighting him for a long time.

I just feel that Jingzhou's strength is not enough to compete with Cao Cao.

If Cao Cao brought his troops over, the battle situation would open at one end, and it would be difficult to distinguish the winner for a long time, and the two sides would continue to hold each other like this, which would not only delay the recovery of the Jingzhou forces, but also delay Cao Cao's military action to Hebei to clean up Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi.

In this case, if I defeat Cao Cao, maybe Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang's strength in Hebei will grow, and when I go to clean up Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang, maybe it will be more troublesome than cleaning up Cao Cao.

I can't do anything stupid like that, I can't kill the tiger and get the jackals up.

Well, I should let the tiger bite the jackal to death, and then I will kill the tiger. ”

Liu Cong laughed when he thought of this, and after laughing for a while, he said to himself: "Actually, leading troops to fight is very simple, just as simple as hunting." Even a good hunter knows the truth just now.

Why do you think it's so complicated to lead troops into battle?

When people talk about leading troops to fight, they say that they are dizzy and foggy, and they are thirty-six strategies, well, and Sun Tzu's Art of War, and such strategies, and such strategies, they are all farts! ”

Thinking of this, Liu Cong realized that he was the only wise strategist in the world at this time, so he straightened up with pride, laughed, laughed enough, and bowed his head to the Snow King under him and said, "Man, you follow me Liu Cong to show your face." From now on, I am the overlord of the world, and you are the mount of the overlord of the world. Hum! Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, is trying to pull out the mountain and cover the world! Black horse, overlord gun, Yu Ji Yu Ji is helpless! Condole! A reckless husband. With only a momentary bravery, it has achieved a reputation through the ages! Such a hanging cargo, if you were born today, you would have a look at it with me Liu Cong! With a wave of my white horse machete, the sky shook, the landslide cracked, Xiang Yu, you just roll aside! I didn't split you because you and I have no grievances! However, Yu Ji has to belong to me. Yu Ji Yu Ji, that's a beauty through the ages. I grass! The beauty was ruined by the overlord of Chu! Hate me to death. At this point, I also have to split Xiang Yu, only by splitting him, Yu Ji will be willingly hugged by me! ”

As soon as Liu Cong thought of the woman, his body became restless, and a hot fire burned from his toes to the top of his head, burning all over his body unbearably hot. regretted it: "Why didn't you fly out with this Cai Feng in the first place." Oops, regret it. It's just that if you don't bring this Cai Fengfei, it's okay to bring a few maids with you and Feifeng, and solve the temporary problem when the time comes, hey. ”

Liu Cong couldn't help it, and looked around, only to see a full of dead grass and shrubs, with the autumn wind blowing, where can I see a woman?

Liu Cong was anxious for a while, so he muttered: "Even if a village girl who picks grass comes out, even though there is grass hanging all over her body, as long as her posture is eye-catching, I will roll in this grass with her in my arms, and I can do it." ”

However, when Liu Cong looked at the dead grass and shrubs moving around Suosuo, he didn't even see a female hare, so he hated himself: "So useless! There is a big battle ahead, but you are thinking nonsense here! What kind of overlord is it? ”

Thinking of this, he slammed the whip at the restless fellow who rested on his saddle.

This time it was a bit excessive, Liu Cong felt a pain straight up to his abdomen, and his small stomach squeaked and hurt.

However, the evil thoughts of crankiness were suppressed.

Liu Cong laughed, smiled and remembered the situation in Jingzhou, the battle in front of him, and the purpose of his inspection on horseback. Thinking like this, I saw a river glittering with sky light at the bottom of the hillside, passing through the woods and disappearing into the distance.

Liu Cong looked at the woods that linked to the sky, and thought to himself: "Just this forest, there are also dozens of miles of roads. Zhou Cangxing Daorong blocked Cao Bing in this tree age, and also blocked Cao Bing for more than ten days. Thinking of this, he urged the beams behind him: "Keep up." Go to the woods and eat dry food. ”062
