Chapter 256: Movements

Hearing Du Chen say this, Cao Cao did not directly answer Du Chen's words, Cao Cao was still worried about Du Chen's body, you know, Hua Tuo is not traveling with the army now, if Du Chen's body really has any problems, it will not be treated,

"No matter what, Si Lang still has to take care of his body, even if he loses this battle, he won't blame you." Cao Cao said in a deep voice, it was obvious that Si Lang's physical condition was much more important than the victory in the war.

Du Chen smiled slightly, and then said: "Meng De rest assured, Chen will pay attention, and he will definitely not let his body have any problems." Although Du Chen said it very surely, he didn't dare to guarantee it, after all, Du Chen still felt that he was very tired at this time.

Seeing Du Chen's expression, Cao Cao's worried expression finally improved a lot, Cao Cao glanced at Du Chen a few times, and then asked in a deep voice: "I don't know when my army will arrive." ”

"Back to Prime Minister, just now the scout came with news, saying that the army led by General Zhao Yun is coming quickly, I'm afraid it won't take a few days for General Zhao Yun to lead the army to help." Xun Yu said in a deep voice, for Zhao Yun's help, Xun Yu is also quite looking forward to it,

As long as the Cao army comes to help, then Liu Bei is not Cao Jun's opponent at all, as the so-called, a force to drop ten will, Cao Jun's army to help, but the strength of his own side will be several times that of Liu Jun, at that time, even if Liu Bei's strategy is superb, as long as he is careful to deal with it, it will be difficult for him to turn up any more storms,

However, Liu Bei will naturally know this, so now it is necessary to force Liu Jun to choose, whether to withdraw the army, or to continue to fight with Cao Jun desperately, this is a difficult question to choose.

If the army was withdrawn, the victory of Liu's army during this period would disappear in an instant. Moreover, even if he withdrew his troops, it is still a question whether Cao Cao will let him go.

But if you continue to fight with Cao Jun, if Cao Jun's army arrives, then you will also face defeat. So no matter what choice he makes, this will give Liu Bei a headache.

However, it is another option, that is, to take the risk of attacking Zhao Yun's troops, although this method is quite risky, but it is definitely worth a try, after all, Cao Jun came to help the soldiers just broke away from a battle, and then there was a rapid march to help, so you can definitely try it.

With this thought, Du Chen showed a slight sneer, because he thought that Liu Bei would definitely choose this method, after all, defending or retreating would bring defeat to Liu Jun, but if the surprise attack on Cao's army was successful, then he would definitely be able to lay a good opportunity with this, and it was possible to use it to eliminate Cao's strength.

Of course, this can only be imagined, and the actual implementation is still quite problematic. After all, Cao Jun's strength is far from being comparable to Liu Jun.

Just when Du Chen was thinking about Liu Beijun's next move, Liu Bei's big tent was obviously worried about this matter, although they didn't know what would happen to Cao Jun's army, but it must not take a few days, after all, Du Chen had already rushed to the front line, even if Cao Jun's army was slow. I'm afraid it won't slow down for a while.

Now the generals under Liu Bei's command are divided into two factions, one is the main battle, and their central idea is to destroy the Cao army in front of them with all their strength when the Cao army's army has not arrived, so that the Cao army knows that Liu Jun's combat effectiveness is strong. Let them withdraw their troops on their own initiative,

Of course, only Zhang Fei put forward this concept, but there are also many generals who agree with his point of view, and most of Liu Jun's strategists advocate strategic shift, avoid its edge, Cao Jun is strong, if only by virtue of the defense of the camp, it is obviously difficult to resist the strong attack of Cao Jun, it is better to retreat into the city and resist Cao Jun with the city wall,

Although there is no important town under Liu Bei's command, the city wall of the town is obviously much stronger than the earthen wall and wooden village of the camp, so with the city wall, there is still more or less the strength to be able to fight with the Cao army, but if you stick to it and wait for help, it is absolutely no different from death.

The two factions argued endlessly for their respective views, and the entire big tent was turned upside down by everyone, but Liu Bei and Xu Shu didn't say anything, and the two of them quietly watched the two sides quarrel.

Liu Bei frowned slightly, but Xu Shu did smile slightly, as if the conversation between the two parties had nothing to do with him, and Liu Bei obviously noticed this, he frowned, and then said sharply: "Enough, shut up." ”

Although Liu Bei's voice was not loud, his voice penetrated the entire camp, so that all the people who were arguing could hear it clearly, and everyone heard Liu Bei's shouting, and they stopped one after another, looking towards Liu Bei,

Seeing Liu Bei's gloomy expression, everyone suddenly didn't dare to say anything, even Zhang Fei, who was shouting the most lively just now, didn't dare to say anything more, he looked at Liu Bei, and then shrunk his neck,

Seeing that everyone stopped talking, Liu Bei glanced at the people under the tent, and then said to Xu Shu: "Yuan Zhi, what do you think about this matter?" When he saw Xu Shu's full smile, he must have had an idea in Xu Shu's heart.

Hearing Liu Bei's words, everyone's eyes were focused on Xu Shu's body, although the person in front of him was very young, but everyone still respected Xu Shu, after all, what the young man in front of him did was worthy of everyone's admiration.

When Xu Shu first joined Liu Bei, he was quite excluded because of his youth, but in the next period of time, especially when he commanded Liu Jun to attack and ambush Cao Jun, he finally ushered in a loud voice for Cao Jun, which made everyone admire the young man in front of him.

Therefore, now Xu Shu has a lot of prestige among Liu Jun, not only Liu Bei values him very much, but even the arrogant Guan Yu looks at Xu Shu differently, so when everyone hears that Xu Shu is going to speak, they naturally listen with their ears pricked up.

Xu Shu looked at the people who had quieted down, and then said: "What the generals said is good, but there are omissions, General Zhang advocates defeating the Cao army, but can the general know that the Cao army camp is heavily defended, and there are elite soldiers such as the White Tiger Battalion and the Xuanwu Battalion, does the general have the ability to defeat the Cao army?" ”

Xu Shu's words made Zhang Fei stunned, although Zhang Fei was the main battle, but he hadn't thought about so many things, although Zhang Fei was very confident, but in the face of Cao Jun's powerful combat power, he was still somewhat self-aware.

As for how strong Cao Jun's combat effectiveness is, this is Cao Jun's hard work after hard battles, although Zhang Fei's self-confidence is bursting, but he can still realize the gap between Cao Jun and his own army, so taking Cao Jun is not just talking about himself.

Zhang Fei looked at Xu Shu, and then shrunk his neck, it was obvious that his thinking method was somewhat incomplete, he looked at Xu Shu, and then didn't say anything more, and when he heard Xu Shu say this, the Cao army strategist who advocated the withdrawal of the army showed a slight smile,

When Xu Shu saw this, he then spoke: "What the generals said is not bad, the Cao army is strong, and we really want to avoid the edge for the time being, but even if we wait for the withdrawal of the army back to the city, will we be able to resist the front of the Cao army?" ”

"Cao Jun suffered this big loss, naturally he will not let us go lightly, even if we withdraw the army, presumably they will chase after it, and, judging from the strong Cheng DΓΉ of Cao Jun, whether it is the earthen wall of the camp or the city led by our army, it must not be in the eyes of Cao Jun, can it be able to resist Cao Jun by escaping back to the city." Xu Shu asked rhetorically,

Hearing Xu Shu's words, the original main retreat faction also stopped talking, and seeing that Xu Shu refuted everyone's remarks, Liu Bei asked: "Beiguan Yuanzhi has been silent just now, and he is smiling slightly, does it seem that he has a countermeasure." ”

Hearing Liu Bei's inquiry, Xu Shu looked up at him, and then said: "There is indeed an immature way, and I hope that the lord and you can give you some advice." Xu Shu's words were very humble, but his expression was indeed quite confident,

Hearing this, Liu Bei's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly said: "Since Yuan Zhi already has an idea in his heart, let's talk about it, Yuan Zhi will deny both methods, and there must be a better plan than the two." ”

Xu Shu smiled slightly, and then said: "This method coincides with General Zhang's thoughts, but it is not an attack on Cao Jun's Dazhai. ”

Hearing Xu Shu's words, everyone was slightly stunned, especially Zhang Fei, who didn't know how to answer, after all, his plan had just been denied by Xu Shu, and he didn't know why Xu Shu said that. (To be continued......)
