Chapter 53: One plan for two purposes, retreat to Xiapi!
After Cao Cao and Guo Jia finished discussing, they let Yu Ban, Li Dian, and Xiahou Yuan accompany Guo Jia and Lu Rui with a part of the army to ambush in a forest west of the city. Cao Cao continued to take advantage of the advantage of the number of soldiers to besiege Xiapi, hang up the exemption card, and do not fight with LΓΌ Bu.
"Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, Er and the others, do you dare to fight with me Lu Bu for another hundred rounds?"
"Shameless child, I let you go that day, but today I have become a guts bandit? Don't dare to go to war with me? β
Regarding Cao Cao's high-hanging exemption card, Lu Bu went to Cao Ying's battle almost every three days to call for battle, but Cao Cao ignored Lu Bu's scolding.
"Cao Gong, Zhang Fei asks to fight!" Cao Cao could bear it, but Zhang Fei couldn't help it anymore and began to shout for battle.
"Big brother, Xiahoudun also asks for battle!" Lu Bu's scolding is still a bit level, from insulting Zhang Fei and Guan Yu to insulting Cao Cao's ancestors. Of course, Xiahoudun can't see it, after all, it's still a family, scolded Cao Cao's ancestors? Xiahou's family? Suffer!
"Xuande, it's your time!" Cao Cao didn't pay any attention to the two of them, and just continued to play Go with Liu Bei.
"Cao Gong!"
"Big brother!"
No matter how the two of them asked to fight, Cao Cao ignored it and just concentrated on playing his own Go.
"Haha, Xuande, I won again!" The wife Cao finally regained her confidence as a chess player of the Three Kingdoms here with Liu Daer, and won Liu Bei again, which is really comfortable, unlike playing with Rui'er, she always loses!
"Cao Gong, Zhang Fei asks to fight again!"
"Big brother, Xiahoudun also asks for battle!" The two living treasures came again, Lu Bu scolded outside, annoying their hearts, but because of the military order, they could only stay in the camp, every time they thought of Lu Bu's smug eyes and contemptuous tone, the two of them were itching in their hearts, and they wanted to dismantle Lu Bu into eight pieces!
"Xuande, how many days has our army been hanging up the war-free card?"
Liu Bei took out his finger, calculated and said, "Gong Cao, there are seven days left, and it will be two months." β
Cao Cao nodded and said, "You two go and prepare, in seven days, our army will defeat Lu Bu!" β
"Is that true? Cao Gong (eldest brother)" the two asked
"Of course, seven days later, our army will attack, you go and prepare!"
"No!" Having received the exact order, the two happily withdrew from the tent.
Hot, hot, hot, really hot, how did you go so late this summer? When has it been, and it's still so hot? There is no bell to fan by his side, so he has to do it himself! Lu Rui, Guo Jia and the others have been in ambush in this forest for almost two months!
These two months were really the most difficult two months, there were many mosquitoes in the woods, and it was hot, and many sergeants had stomach troubles.
Syllable! Lu Rui killed another mosquito, this is the thousandth mosquito, Lu Rui looked at the corpse of the mosquito and said to Guo Jia: "Master? The thousandth mosquito, will Lu Bu really come to sneak attack our military rations? Is it really okay to ambush here? β
Guo Jia smiled, twisted his sweaty coat, and said, "Rui'er, you have a thousand, I already have a thousand, fifteen hundred!" Lu Bu? It will definitely come, because this is the only chance for Lu Bu to win our army, if this opportunity is lost, our army will not be able to attack Xuzhou, and Lu Bu will have no chance to defeat our army! β
"Yes!" Lu Rui nodded, now I can only believe in Guo Jia, Cao Jun's victory over Lu Bujun's army is history, although the process is not clear, but the result is clear.
Seeing Lu Rui's sluggish appearance, Guo Jia shook his head and said, "Rui'er? It seems that the days of the Hou Yefu have made you too comfortable, you see, you won't complain if you are evil, and Rui'er will follow the lord to fight in the east and west, and endure hardships, you still want it! β
Damn, master, what do you know? When I can lead the army, at that time, Cao Wei has an overwhelming advantage to engage people, and I sit in a carriage and strategize is the king, this kind of thing? Didn't Ma Tsai do it?
"Strategist? How do you know I won't complain? Dian Wei's deep voice came, startling Lu Rui and the others.
Dian Wei stretched out his arms, which were full of mosquito bites, and it seemed that there was allergic redness and swelling, Dian Wei looked even more burly!
"This?" Guo Jia was stunned, the image of Dian Wei? It's so funny!
"Evil? I thought mosquitoes liked a white literati like me? I didn't think that I would not let go of such a fierce and evil person as evil? Haha, that's so interesting! "The face is fat, the arms are allergic and thick, and the legs are swollen, this is the large Dian Wei, the Dian Wei that has been bitten by mosquitoes!
"Strategist? Our army is short of military rations, but is there a good plan? Lu Bu anxiously asked Chen Gong, if there was no more grain and grass, Lu Bu would have to retreat to Xiapi, which had just been harvested in autumn and had military rations available.
Chen Gong shook his head and said: "Lord, Chen Gong is incompetent, it is indeed not the director of Chen Palace to collect military rations, please forgive your sins!" β
"Gongtai? I heard that Cao Jun has a batch of grain and grass to be transported to the front line? If it's our army? Lu Bu asked Chen Gong tentatively.
"Lord, Cao Cao is treacherous, the army must have sent heavy troops to escort it, if our army attacks at will? I'm afraid I'll fall for Cao Cao's tricks? β
"Gongtai? If our army has no military rations, how can we defeat Cao Cao? If Cao Cao is undefeated in this battle? Does our army still have hope of marching into the Central Plains? Dominating the world? When the time comes, it's just an empty word! I've made up my mind, the public station just needs to help me well! β
Looking at Lu Bu's firm eyes, Chen Gong knew that Lu Bu's temper had come up again, but Lu Bu was not unreasonable, Lu Bu, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, naturally had a deep understanding of the battle situation, if Lu Bu was victorious, he could take the Central Plains directly, if Lu Bu was defeated, Cao Cao could rely on Yanzhou to recuperate, and then crusade against Xuzhou, but Lu Bu had no chance, because Xuzhou was not Lu Bu's base!
Chen Gong thought about it for a while, and he also wanted to overcome, this desire always dominated him, and sometimes he would exceed his own reason, Bo? Okay, I'll let go of Chen Gong, if I win, I can defeat Cao Cao in one fell swoop and wave the army to the Central Plains!
"The subordinates are willing to plot and defeat Cao Cao!"
"Okay, Gongtai, let's defeat Cao Cao together and march to the Central Plains!" Seeing that Chen Gong had made up his mind, Lu Bu was also full of fighting spirit, Cao Jun's multi-day avoidance of the battle had already made Lu Bu crazy, and attacking Cao Jun was Lu Bu's only thought now!
"Gongtai? Is there a solution? Chen Gong has been thinking about how to intercept Cao Jun's grain and grass for the past few days, and seeing that the time for Cao Jun's grain and grass to arrive is getting closer and closer, Lu Bu began to be anxious.
"My lord, the public platform has the best place to intercept grain and grass! Yes, there is! After speaking, Chen Gong pointed to a dense forest in the distance to the west of the city.
Lu Bu looked at the terrain and said: "Gongtai, this is a dense forest, I have been there, the trees are dense, the terrain is relatively complicated, and it is not suitable for our army to ambush?" If it is to intercept military rations? I'm afraid it's only head-to-head! β
"The lord is wise! This place is not suitable for ambushes, but it is a place where Cao's army must pass through grain and grass, and our army only needs to attack with the whole army, and the grain and grass will be intercepted! Cao Mengde would not have thought that our army would dare to be so bold! β
"Oh?" Lu Bu looked at the map and said, "Gongtai, if Cao Cao has an ambush here?" β
"Hahaha, the lord is too worried, in recent days, our army's secret agents have returned, there is no sign of the Cao army's army moving in the direction of the dense forest, this dense forest stretches for a hundred miles, it is not suitable for fortification, if the Cao army is fortified, it will also send heavy troops, and the Cao army will never have an ambush here!"
When Lu Bu heard this, he smiled and said: "Gongtai is really a clever plan, Cao thief will be defeated this time, leaving General Gao Shun to lead the camp to defend the city, and the rest of the soldiers will attack with me to intercept Cao's army grain and grass!" β
"Yes, my lord!"
On the day when Cao's army arrived in the dense forest, Lu Bu sent someone to pretend to be himself in front of Cao's army to call for battle, but this time there was no longer the shadow of Xiahoudun and Zhang Fei, because the two had a new task to arrange ambushes outside the dense forest.
At night, the newly arrived north wind blew through the woods, and there was no moonlight, so LΓΌ Bujun could only rely on torches to move forward, and Cao Cao's grain transport team was resting in the woods not far away.
"Lord, I found Cao Jun's grain transportation team!" Scout Reports.
"Okay, Gongtai, let's raid over and intercept Cao Jun's grain and grass!"
"Yes, my lord!"
"Brothers, come with me!" Instructed by Chen Gong, Cao Xuan rushed over with a large army, and Cao Cao's grain transport team was quickly routed under the powerful offensive of LΓΌ Bu's army.
"My lord, I am glad that I am not dishonored! Seize the grain and grass! β
"Okay, General Cao, hurry back to the city!" After seizing Cao Cao's grain and grass, Lu Bu and Chen Gong hurriedly returned with the army.
At a corner in the dense forest, Lu Rui looked into the distance and asked, "Master?" Lu Bu seems to have seized the grain and grass of our army? But why hasn't it come yet? β
"Rui'er doesn't need to be anxious, this is the way back to Xiaopei after all, Lu Bu will definitely pass through here, and when the time comes, a big fire will be able to deal with Lu Bu's army!"
Lu Rui nodded, grandma's, Lu Bu, I have prepared a lot of good things for you!
"Strategist, Lu Bu's army is here!"
"Okay, order someone to prepare a rocket, as long as the oil is used, the arrow will be released immediately!"
"No!"
"Gongtai is really a clever plan, Cao Cao never thought that our army would attack with the whole army and seize the grain and grass, in less than a moment, the grain and grass will be put into the arms of our army, return to Xiaopei, I will definitely give Gongtai a credit!"
"Thank you, my lord!" Lu Bu and Chen Gong also praised each other happily, and they didn't notice the danger at all.
"Huh? How can there be so many fallen leaves in the sky? And water? It's raining? β
Chen Gong suddenly smelled a pungent smell of fire oil, Chen Gong looked up and saw that there were actually oil drums on the nearby trees, and the fire oil was constantly left!
"Oh no, lord, we've been tricked, get out of here!"
Chen Gong hasn't finished speaking, whoosh! Rockets flew like bees from everywhere, and with a bang, Lu Bujun's military formation became a sea of fire!
"Ah, burn me!"
"Quick, put out the fire!"
"Lu Bu Xiao'er, Hugh wants to escape, Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide are here!"
"Cao Xing, I want to avenge the arrow of the day!"
Hey, Lu Bu? I didn't expect it, we have been in ambush here for two months, just to prepare this fire oil feast for you, haha, how about it? Burn the whole army, cool!
"Evil? Go up? Kill a few generals? β
"Yes, Master Hou!" After receiving Lu Rui's order, Dian Wei also rushed forward with three hundred people.
"Go quickly!" Lu Bu went to the Chen Palace and broke through in the direction of Xiaopei with the cavalry!
Gao Shun saw the fire in the distance in Xiaopei, and knew that Lu Bu was attacked, so he immediately rushed to the direction of the woods with the trapped camp.
Cao Cao burned Lu Bu's army in Xiaopei, and Zhang Liao was in Shandong, using the same trick against Cao Ren!
"General Cao, Zhang Liao's grain transport team is here!"
"Okay, tell the soldiers to prepare!"
"Come with me, brethren!" As soon as the arrow sounded, Cao Ren rushed out with a large army.
Zhang Liao fought with Cao Ren with a broadsword for dozens of rounds before he was defeated.
"Check the rations!"
"General, the military rations are intact!"
"Okay, order General Zhu Ling to send someone to answer!"
In Hukou, a valley in Shandong, Cao Ren had just intercepted Zhang Liao's military rations, and Zhang Liao retreated to Hukou in the north. This is the southern Hukou where Zhu Ling is stationed, which is to cover Cao Ren's retreat.
"General Zhu, General Cao Ren has intercepted Zhang Liao's military rations, and now he is coming here, please send troops to respond!"
"Okay, deputy general, lead half of the men to meet General Cao Ren!"
"No!"
Not long after the deputy general led the people away, a large number of Taishan thieves appeared near the Hukou in the south!
"General, the Tarzan thief is here!"
"What? Isn't Zang Ba in the Taishan barracks? How did you get here? Oh no, General Cao Ren has been tricked! β
"Brothers, defend the mountain pass!"
Cao Ren was retreating towards the mouth of the pot at the south gate, when suddenly a lot of rockfalls fell on the mountain. "Be careful!" Falling rocks fell, killing a lot of Cao soldiers, and Cao Ren realized that he had been calculated by Zhang Liao.
"Stabilize the formation, don't panic!"
Whoosh! Two rockets hit the falling rock, and the falling rock burst into flames. "Oh no, Zhang Liao put fire oil on the falling rock!"
"Throw away the grain and grass, and the whole army will follow me to assault and rush to the north of the Hukou!" Cao Ren took the lead and broke through to the Hukou in the north.
"General Zhang really had a clever plan, Cao Ren was defeated, but Cao Ren actually did not retreat to the south, but retreated to the north, and it fell short!" Zang Ba unwillingly hammered the grain cart next to him. Zhu Ling ran away, and Cao Ren also ran away.
Zhang Liao smiled and said: "Cao Ren is the wise general in Cao's army, he has already won our army's plan once, and the second time, he will seriously consider it, our army is not strong enough, and it has raided the Hukou in the south, and the north must be empty, and the opposite is true?" Cao Zixiao is not simple! Thinking of meeting Cao Ren in Hukou in the north just now, Zhang Liao couldn't help but admire, he was so calm when he met the enemy in battle, he was really a general!
Just as Zhang Liao was about to take advantage of the victory to pursue, Lu Bu sent a letter: Xiaopei was defeated, the army was almost wiped out, and Wen Yuan quickly returned to the division to rescue! Zhang Liao had no choice but to lead his troops back to Xiapi and Lu Bu to hold the last city in Xuzhou! (Three more, thank you editors for your recommendation and readers' update tickets!) οΌ
