Chapter 667: Surprise Attack on Karasuma

But fortunately, Cao Jun has Tian Chou as a guide, which also makes Cao Cao quite impressed. Feeling that Zhao Fei was taking precautions, if he hadn't told him to prepare in advance, how could he have Tian Chou's help at this moment.

Cao Cao has been a horse for half his life, and his courage is definitely not small. But even though he was bold, he didn't have the courage to venture into a road that had been inaccessible for two hundred years, because it was too risky. If you really get lost in it, it's quite difficult to figure it out.

Moreover, if this road is really free of dangers, how can he be inaccessible for two hundred years. Therefore, "Luronse" can be described as full of risks. But Cao Cao knew that the greater the risk, the greater the benefit. The two often coexist, so Cao Cao wasn't afraid of risk.

Summoning Zhao Fei and Tian Chou, Cao Jun began to discuss how to deal with the Karasuma Thief Army. After all, Cao Jun has two paths to choose now, although he will encounter strong resistance from Karasuma's army if he tries to break through the "Coastal Road", but it is still the same sentence, risks and benefits coexist.

The Karasuma army would definitely not allow Cao Cao to pass through the "Coastal Road" easily, but if the Karasuma army could be eliminated on the frontal battlefield, then the Cao army could collapse to the morale of the Karasuma people in one battle. Without morale and no hope of victory, then this lazy Karasuma alliance will collapse in an instant.

As for "Luronse", it is also a combination of risk and benefit. The danger is that the journey is difficult, and for a road that has been inaccessible for two hundred years, it seems that it has long been broken and cut off. However, Tian Chou said that there are still paths to be found in the mountains, and the only way is to open the road in the mountains, which is obviously difficult.

The advantage of taking "Lu Longsai" is that his concealment is that the army of Cao can quietly descend in front of the Karasuma army, and when the Karasuma people are not prepared, they can raid the base camp of Karasuma, so that Karasuma can definitely be easily taken.

Now Cao Cao is in a dilemma, both of which are quite dangerous, but both of them can determine the outcome of the war. Whether it is a frontal breakthrough or a covert surprise attack, Cao Jun can grasp the initiative of the war, so Cao Cao doesn't know which one to choose.

Seeing Cao Cao in a dilemma, Zhao Fei grinned, and then said: "If the prime minister doesn't know which path to choose, it's better to do both." Our army sent a large army to take the "Primordial Road" to attract the attention of the main forces of the enemy army in Karasuma. Then Mr. Zitai led the way and led the elite to "Lu Longsai". The attention of the Karasuma people was focused on our army on the "Primordial Road", and the sudden appearance of our army in their hinterland must have been very surprising. ”

Listening to Zhao Fei's words, Cao Cao showed a smile. Zhao Fei's strategy is good, since there are risks and benefits in these two paths. Attacking both at the same time is clearly effective.

However, at this time, Tian Chou suddenly spoke: "Lord Taiwei's plan is good, but in my opinion, it is better to pay attention to the two-pronged approach. If we take both paths, we will have to divide our troops, which is obviously not good for our army. ”

"Oh?" Zhao Fei showed a trace of the same look, and in the entire Cao Army, it was the first time that Zhao Fei found that someone questioned his opinion. This made Zhao Fei feel very surprised, of course, it was just an accident, and nothing else. Zhao Fei looked at Tian Chou, and then asked in a deep voice, "What is Zitai's good plan?" ”

Tian Chou was slightly stunned, and Tian Chou was obviously stunned for Zhao Fei's attitude. He looked at Zhao Fei, and then said, "Returning to Lord Sweetness, it doesn't mean anything to be here. I just want to say that there is no need to fight hard with the Karasuma thief, wouldn't it be better for our army to feign withdrawal and let the Karasuma people relax their vigilance, and then appear behind Karasuma by surprise through "Lu Longsai"! ”

Zhao Fei thought for a moment, and then said: "But our army has no reason to withdraw, and if we withdraw our troops rashly, it will definitely attract the suspicion of the enemy army in Karasuma. Therefore, if you want to withdraw your troops, you need a reason that can be accepted by both the enemy and us! ”

"It's not for nothing!" At this time, Guo Jia suddenly spoke. He glanced at the people present, and then spoke: "As far as I know, since the time when our army went out to prepare for the conquest of Karasuma, there have been many people in the rear of our army who are making small moves! ”

Hearing this, Zhao Fei showed a pleased smile. He looked at Cao Cao, and then said: "Yes, these villains can't be ignored, otherwise, if these villains are allowed to mess around, God knows what will happen!" ”

Listening to Zhao Fei's words, everyone in the room showed a smile of relief. This reason, although far-fetched, is still credible. Now that the area around Youzhou in Jizhou has just been recovered, if there is any problem during this period, it will be overturned, which is obviously not what Cao Jun wants to see!

"In that case, let's discuss how to feign the withdrawal of troops." Cao Cao finally clapped his head and said.

The heavens seemed to be helping Cao Jun, and just as Cao Jun was about to withdraw his troops, it began to rain in the sky again, and this time it was several days. And it was precisely because of this rain that Cao Jun had a more sufficient reason to withdraw.

Such heavy rain made it difficult for Cao's army to attack. The road to Karasuma was already difficult to walk, but now that it has rained for so many days, it is even more difficult to get along the road. Of course, it was important to note that the rain seemed to be somewhat endless, and it continued to rain for days without any signs of stopping.

Due to various conditions, Cao's army finally decided to withdraw its troops. Of course, the withdrawal of the Cao army was just for the Karasuma people, and the real elite of the Cao army had already quietly left the barracks, and they followed Tian Chou to pioneer the way and explore the way for the Cao army.

Hearing that the Cao army had withdrawn, the patriarchs of the Karasuma clan refused to believe it at first, but as the scouts continued to hear the news of the Cao army's withdrawal, these Karasuma patriarchs finally believed that the Cao army had really withdrawn.

It's not that he was afraid of confronting Cao's army, but the rainy weather was not suitable for large-scale cavalry battles. Even though the Karasuma warriors had superb riding skills, it was difficult for them to burst out with their due strength on the muddy land, so the withdrawal of the Cao army was just in time, so the Karasuma people didn't want to think about it.

Of course, for Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang, the withdrawal of Cao Jun was somewhat strange. However, as the news continued to come, saying that the people in Hebei were excited, the two Yuan brothers did not have many doubts in the end, they obviously didn't think much about it, thinking that Cao Jun had really retreated.

Inside Xu Wushan, Tian Chou walked in the mountains with hundreds of soldiers. Looking at the looming mountain road in front of him, Tian Chou's brows condensed into a river. He realized that it would be very difficult to go to "Lulongse", but the difficulties now were obviously a little beyond Tian Chou's expectations.

He led hundreds of elites of the Cao army to wander around the mountain for three or four days, but he did not find a mountain road that could allow the soldiers to walk together. At this time, some of the Cao soldiers who accompanied him began to complain, and they obviously doubted whether Tian Chou's guide was qualified or not.

Walking in the mountains with one foot deep and one foot shallow, Tian Chou's mood at the moment was obviously very low. The food I carried was gone, and if I hadn't found a mountain road to walk with, I would have really returned in vain this time.

However, the heavens still favor Tian Chou very much. Just when Tian Chou was desperate, a very secret mountain road appeared in front of him. This mountain path is very secretive, if Tian Chou hadn't observed himself, he obviously wouldn't have observed this hidden mountain road.

After exploring this mountain road, Tian Chou's face, which had been gloomy for a long time, finally showed a smile. Don't look at this mountain road is very secretive, but he was able to let the soldiers of the Cao army pass through Xu Wushan safely, and not long to the north, that is Lu Longsai, of course, after Lu Longsai, that is the hinterland of the Karasuma people.

Hearing this news, Cao Cao was obviously very excited. In order to be able to enter the interior of Karasuma through Lulongsai as soon as possible, Cao Cao asked his soldiers to travel lightly. After all, climbing such a big mountain still requires so much baggage, which obviously will take a lot of time. These burdens could be postponed, but Cao Cao wanted to take the initiative in the war as soon as possible when the Karasuma people did not reflect it.

Of course, not all soldiers can travel lightly. In order for the soldiers to have combat effectiveness, Cao Jun led the advanced mountain to naturally be the elite of Cao Jun. In order to deal with the cavalry of the Karasuma people, Cao Cao could only order the soldiers of the tiger and leopard cavalry to take the lead in climbing the mountain.

Karasuma is a cavalryman, so it is most appropriate to use a tiger and leopard cavalry to deal with cavalry. After all, the mobility of the foot is always insufficient, and in the face of the impact of the enemy cavalry, the casualties of the infantry will be heavy.

At this moment, in Liucheng, the patriarchs of the Karasuma clan, Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang, were discussing. Now the Cao army has withdrawn, but the Karasuma people are thinking about how to send troops at this time. The weather was almost unacceptable, and now that the weather is finally cloudy again, it's time to think about how to send troops.

As soon as this attention was raised, it was strongly supported by the major patriarchs. They are gathered here for the land of the Han people, and if they can't take the land of the Han people, then their own people will have to fight with the northwest wind, so now they need war very much.

After pacifying the crowd, he unfolded the strategic map. He glanced at the Karasuma patriarchs, and then said, "If you want to get out of the fortress, there is only one, and that is the Coastal Road!" ”

Before he finished speaking, he heard a patriarch under the tent suddenly speak: "My king, isn't there another one called Lu Longsai, although the miracles are rare, but there are also people who go!" ”

This person's seemingly unintentional words suddenly caused a ripple in Badun's heart. At this point, he felt someone stabbing him in the chest with a sword. A chill suddenly enveloped his body, making him stunned and motionless.

Seeing that Bunton was stunned in shock, the patriarchs obviously didn't know what was going on. How did an inconsequential sentence cause such a reaction. Could it be that there is some mystery in these words.

Badon finally came to his senses, and then he immediately said six words: "It's broken! Gather your troops! ”
