Chapter 386: Lu Meng who changed the situation in the world
Time advances Cao Zhang led 10,000 light cavalry out of Xia Zhi to rush to Jingzhou City, accompanied by Zhang Liao, and the target was Lu Meng!
LΓΌ Meng was very reckless at the beginning, just an ordinary fierce general, brave in battle, and rigorous in style; But he has some inner things that are not known, and Zhou Yu is the only one who discovers the splendid beauty in his belly!
In order to educate Lu Meng, Zhou Yu also took great pains, once Zhou Yu fished, asked Lu Meng to accompany him, and that happened to be the rebellion of Wu County, Li Yu's troops went out of Jingnan, and the situation in Jiangdong was extremely critical, but Zhou Yu still had the leisure to go fishing, which caused Lu Meng's dissatisfaction; Zhou Yu asked, "Ziming! What's under the surface of the lake, you say? β
Lu Meng was unhappy in his heart, and he didn't want to answer directly: "The last general is mortal with the naked eye, and he can't see what mysteries are under the lake!" β
Zhou Yu saw that expression in his eyes, and immediately said to him with a smile: "You are talking angrily, I am also a mortal with the naked eye, and I can't see through what is under the surface of this lake!" But let me tell you, a two-foot-long golden carp is swimming towards me! And bit the hook! β
Lu Meng was skeptical at the time, he couldn't believe it, the lake was quiet, and he couldn't tell that there was a fish biting the hook, who expected Zhou Yu to swing, and sure enough, a two-foot-long golden carp was on his hook! Lu Meng was stunned: "Dudu is really a heavenly man!" β
I don't know what is important, what matters is Zhou Yu's next words: "Although I can't see it, I have a spirit in my heart, and I can feel something under the lake!" This is a truth in war, as long as you have that feeling, you can anticipate the victory of the enemy and plan a strange plan!
Lu Meng! You should read more military books! Don't be reckless all day! Soochow needs you! Huh"
At this point, Lu Meng admired Zhou Yu even more, and was shocked by his broad-mindedness, he began to familiarize himself with military books, and listened to Zhou Yu's teachings by Zhou Yu's side, and the speed of his growth amazed everyone! This kind of growth rate is unprecedented!
Therefore, he made a surprise attack on Jingzhou City, which to some extent interfered with Cao's army, although he was recognized, the strategic intent he needed was fully demonstrated!
LΓΌ Meng waited in Jingzhou City, he knew that Cao's army would definitely send troops to expel him, or kill him! He can't make a move first, it will be easy to be intercepted and killed by Cao Jun halfway, he must clearly know every move of Cao Jun before he can prescribe the right medicine; Soon, he got the news that Cao Zhang, the son of Li Yu, led an army of 10,000 to attack!
"General! The war horses in the north are strong and powerful, Cao Zhang's troops will soon arrive in Jingzhou City, let's withdraw as soon as possible! ", suggested the little school under Lu Meng's account; Lu Meng shook his head and smiled: "As you said, the fast horses in the north are far better than our southern horses, even if we leave, we will soon be caught up by Cao Jun!" And Cao Jun can use the Ranger Tactics to tail us, and they will drag us down little by little! So! Can't go! β
"Can't go? But the enemy is twice as large as mine, and the battlefield is in the hinterland of the enemy, and the enemy is outnumbered, so it is difficult to deal with it! β
"! Can't we fight if we are outnumbered? Lu Meng scolded with a smile: "I want to fight a battle, and then I will leave!" You can't just leave with a bunch of money, can you? β
"General Zhang! The sentinel cavalry reported that Lu Meng withdrew to the south of Jingzhou! Go straight to the Lingling County area! What are we going to do? Although it is not the first time to lead the team alone, this is the first time to lead the team under Li Yu's nose with the permission of Li Yu, and Cao Xian is extremely excited; Zhang Liao looked at Cao Zhang with some envy, sighed at the passing years, and after being stunned for a moment, Zhang Liao said: "Since Mr. is going to test the talent of the major general, it is naturally up to you to make a decision!" As long as it doesn't happen to a big event, I won't say anything! Just let it go! β
"Thank you very much!" , Cao Zhang arched his hand: "I plan to enter Jingzhou City first for grain and grass supply, restore Jingzhou's grain and grass supply line to Ba County, and then rush to attack Lu Meng's troops!" They won't take it from Jingnanyi, that's where my father's army is, and I guess he'll enter Huiji County from the Changsha area! It won't take us much time to keep up with them! β
LΓΌ Meng's occupation of Jingzhou City not only had a great impact on the people of Jingzhou City, but also had a great impact on Cao Ren's troops defending in the Ba County area, LΓΌ Meng was tantamount to cutting off the supply line between the two places, and Cao Ren's supply line could only be transported from Fancheng and Wancheng at present; "That's great!" , Zhang Liao sighed, and then under the command of Cao Zhang, the army drove to Jingzhou City, the gate of Jingzhou was opened at this time, and outside the city were some of their own soldiers who repaired the city defense, it seems that these people are still very attentive!
"Good work!" , Cao Zhang came to the city gate and stopped a soldier: "How long has Lu Meng been gone?" β
Xiao Bing replied with a smile: "Lu Meng, didn't you leave?" β
Sudden change! The little soldier suddenly drew his knife and jumped up, slashing at Cao Zhang's head, Cao Zhang was startled, and under the reflection of years of practicing martial arts, he narrowly avoided the sneak attack of this "own soldier"!
He escaped, but many people were killed by these "own people" for unknown reasons!
"Hit the mark! Major General! Lu Meng is not leaving! The previous ones were all illusions! Hurry up and withdraw your troops! If you don't know who you are, you can't fight hard! Zhang Liao shouted, the enemy disguised as his own people, this is difficult to do, the soldiers can't distinguish between the enemy and the enemy, and in the end, they will even kill each other!
At the beginning, Li Yu ran thousands of miles in Yuan Shao's territory, and it was this tactic used to kill the generals Guo Yuan, Gao Gan, Gao Lan and others, and the entire Jizhou was thrown into a mess! And he had no more than 10,000 soldiers and horses at that time!
Cao Zhang roared again and again, wanting to kill the enemy, but he didn't know which one was the enemy, and he was panicked, so he could only order the withdrawal of troops, and hundreds of military horses were damaged in a short period of time! What's more, the withdrawn soldiers and horses are also mixed with Lu Meng's soldiers!
"His grandmother's! Before he even saw Lu Meng's face, he was put on a show! Cao Zhang shook his head depressedly and asked Zhang Liao in a low voice: "General Zhang!" I'm afraid that there are still Lu Meng's soldiers and horses in our army! What to do? β
Zhang Liao looked back at the soldiers who were still looking at their companions with some suspicion, and whispered: "If we forcibly let these people prove their identities, I am afraid that it will arouse the dissatisfaction of the soldiers and their morale will plummet, so we can only find another way and use a slightly softer way to distinguish them!" β
Cao Zhang thought for a moment and smiled evilly: "Look at me!" Assembled! Assembled! I have something to say! β
The captain of the Cao army called out to his soldiers and began to line up, Cao Zhang rode a tall horse back and forth in the military formation, and after walking for a while, he stopped and began to say loudly: "I sit down on this horse, and my name is Thief!" I don't know! This horse is wonderful!
King Zhou You, the prince of the Beacon Fire Theater, knows! He also has one of these horses! Do you know what he does with a horse? Discern the Loyal and the Treacherous! Brethren! I lost the battle just now! I'm ashamed, but I'm ashamed that I can't be sad! Because there's more important things for me to do!
What's going on? Someone has slipped into our ranks! I'm not suspicious of you, but I'm responsible for your safety! I can't let you be the soul of the enemy, can I? Right now! I'll let my horse discern between the wicked and the treacherous! to remove the troubles of everyone's hearts, brothers, do you agree? β
"Good! Good! Good! The soldiers looked at each other, and finally shouted together under the drive of others, which was regarded as agreeing, and those who took the lead in shouting were the "tuo" arranged by Cao Zhang, all of whom were Zhang Liao and his personal guards; Zhang Liao, who was observing Cao Zhang not far away, sighed in his heart, sure enough, what kind of father has what kind of son, it's too cunning! Is his horse really that magical? It's all! Zhang Liao didn't believe it; Cao Zhang's horse walked back and forth in the military formation, walking, walking, the thief horse stopped, stopped in front of a dark-faced person, Cao Zhang's eyes squinted at this person, this person was still baring his teeth and laughing at first, but then his smile was stiff, cold sweat broke out, and he stammered: "The general is wronged!" General Cao! β
Cao Zhang smiled: "Hahaha! You spy can't do it well! Almost everyone in the Cao army calls me a major general, when did you call me General Cao? You will be a spy in the army! Take it for me left and right! β
Before he could react, he was caught and pulled into the woods not far away, and after a while, a scream sounded, and Cao Zhang's face was weird and he pulled out three people in a row, and even Zhang Liao's eyes widened in disbelief!
"Whoa! Wait a little longer, and we'll be able to catch all the spies, and those who will be tortured won't last long! Hey, hey, hey! Cao Zhang's expression was leisurely back and forth, and many people in Cao Jun's array began to panic, they were really afraid, this thing seemed too weird!
"Ahh , When the first person injured the people around him and fled, a chain reaction occurred, and all the spies rushed to escape, and the result was inevitable, one by one, they were killed by Cao Jun one by one! The spies have been removed!
Cao Jun, who was tortured in the woods, came out to report, and there were 200 people who came in, and it was a tun organized by the Jiangdong Army, and he checked the number of corpses and calculated it, just right, Cao Zhang did a good job!
Zhang Liao came to Cao Zhang's side and asked hesitantly, "Young General, your horse?" β
Cao Zhang smiled and whispered: "Liar! The reason why I dare to conclude that those people are spies is because these people behaved hastily, and when our cavalry was lined up just now, I discovered the clues! That's how they deceive! Hehe! Don't talk about it! Maybe I'll use it again in the future! β
"Good guys!" , Zhang Liao glanced at Cao Zhang with a complicated face, it was too sharp! This kid! I don't want him to look so rough!
"So what do we do next? It must be distinguished from Jiangdong disguised as us, otherwise the soldiers will think that they are fighting in the same room, which is not good after all! Zhang Liao continued to ask, in fact, he also has a way, but he knows that the real purpose of this march and battle is to train Cao Zhang, and there are some things that he does not interfere in; Cao Zhang blinked: "This is easy to do!" Anyway, it's hot, so let the soldiers tear off the left sleeve, isn't that enough? While camping, he kept changing passwords, so he didn't have a chance! In other words, this Lu Meng is really the same as what his father said, a powerful character! You can make a few turns with a fart! β
"Hehehe", Zhang Liao was amused;
"The soldiers who went to Cao Ying have not returned for a long time!" , Lu Meng closed his eyes and thought for a while: "I underestimated this Cao Zhang!" The tiger father has no dogs! Order to withdraw troops to the Fancheng area! β
"What?" , the little colonel was stunned: "We still have two hundred brothers who have not returned, and besides, the Cao army hoarded in the Fancheng area is tens of thousands!" β
Lu Meng sighed: "Those two hundred brothers are afraid that they will not be able to come back because of my recklessness!" Let's go! We have to hurry, we can't drag it out any longer, we're really going to die! Biased towards Tiger Mountain, maybe the safest road, right? β
Lu Meng's disadvantage is that he was born in Jiangdong, although he temporarily occupied Jingzhou City by force, but he did not dare to act excessively, nor could he get the support of the locals, as soon as he left on the front foot, someone on the back foot informed Cao Zhang, and the initiative came to Cao Zhang's hands again, whether to pursue or be safe, it depends on him!
It didn't take long for him to be put on by Lu Meng, Cao Zhang didn't care on the surface, but he was very unconvinced in his heart, after all, he was a hot-blooded young man in his twenties, and he wanted to prove himself, of course he wanted to pursue it, but he couldn't ignore the situation in Jingzhou City, and temporarily entrusted Ma Liang and Ma Jian of the Ma family to arrange matters in the city, waiting for Kuai Liang to return from the trip, this was the result of Cao Zhang's arrangement, he led the soldiers and horses on the road again; LΓΌ Meng went north, this was to go straight to the Fancheng area, cross Runan and return to the Lujiang River, and thus return to Jiangdong, but he did not have the idea of attacking the supply line of Cao's army in his heart; Li Dian, who is in charge of supervising the transportation of grain and grass, was shot! Who would have thought that there would be such a gang of rogues in the hinterland of Jingzhou surrounded by heavy troops? Still wearing the same clothes as yourself?
Previously, LΓΌ Meng occupied Jingzhou City, and the frustrated man who was in charge of the transportation of grain and grass in Fancheng wanted to send troops to destroy them, but because the supply of grain and grass in Ba County could not be opened, he let them go, and he had already warned the generals who supervised the transportation of grain and grass to be careful of LΓΌ Meng, and to take precautions, but he was still exploited by LΓΌ Meng, and tens of thousands of grain and grass were burned!
Li Dian himself was seriously ill, and this time he was even more sad and angry, and almost committed suicide on the spot, and later died of depression because of this incident! Lu Meng indirectly killed Li Dian!
If you want to say that this person is lucky, there is no way, Lu Meng has no danger along the way, even if he was bitten by Cao Zhang's tail several times, he can escape in disguise safely, and he actually ran back to Lingyang Sun Quan from Lujiang before Cao Cao's army pressed up from the north!
If only he had died at that hour at night, he would have died without a place to be buried!
Lu Meng's results are brilliant! Cao Ren, who was stationed in Ba County, had to withdraw his troops because of the lack of supply of grain and grass, so Zhang Ren and Zhang Fei, who had been waiting for a long time, seized the opportunity to open up the road to the Central Plains in one fell swoop!
Liu Bei broke the shackles! Participate in the game of the Central Plains! Cao Jun suffered from the enemy on his back, and the situation was not optimistic!
