Chapter 175: Scared Away
Sun Quan led Lu Bu to the southwest, and the direction in which Hua Xiong appeared was just the opposite northeast, so the distance between the two sides became farther and farther away, Sun Quan not only cut off the road for Lu Bu and Hua Xiong to converge, but even made Lu Bu not know that Hua Xiong had a situation at all. There's no way, who told Hua Xiong that before he acted, he didn't inform Lu Bu from beginning to end.
Not to mention that Sun Quan continued to flee on this side, on the other side, except for Sun Ce and his party, and Cheng Pu's troops who had just come into contact with Sun Ce, the other Jiangdong troops didn't know what was going on at all. Why did the Lu Bu army, which should have been surrounded, disappear? With such a small range, Lu Bu brought so many soldiers this time, could they hide it?
This is the biggest drawback of warfare in ancient times, which did not have any ability to communicate in real time. This is also why, ancient wars had this kind of plan, so many routines. Only by fixing the strategy and routine in advance can we work together as one. However, correspondingly, once something happens, it is easy to be overwhelmed.
At this time, the test is the general's ability to adapt to emergencies, as well as the commander's ability to understand and cooperate with each other. You have no idea what your allies will do, so you can only guess, trust, and make what you think makes the most sense.
First of all, Cheng Pu's department, Cheng Pu is the one who knows the truth the most, and he also knows which direction Lu Bu's army went, he immediately made a decision, while sending people to inform the other Jiangdong troops, while changing the original plan, and directly waving his troops south, even if he alone has a force, he may not be Lu Bu's opponent at all, Cheng Pu has to temporarily delay Lu Bu for a while, see if he can re-encircle him, at least save the isolated Sun Quan, right.
Huang Gaibu in the north, because he was attacked by Hua Xiong from behind, could only passively resist while hurriedly asking for help, and he had no other choice. At this time, it was Huang Gai's luck that he did not encounter Lu Bu, so that Huang Gai's army did not have to suffer from two sides, but Lu Bu's army was delayed, and it was always a hidden danger, so that Huang Gai did not dare to let go of his hand to counterattack Huaxiong.
Han Dang's troops in the south are now completely black-eyed, they don't know any information for the time being, and they haven't encountered any situation for the time being, but they are very sure that Lu Bu has entered, so, out of caution, Han Dang ordered his subordinates to carefully search the mountains and forests while going north, so as to prevent Lu Bu from scattering and hiding the soldiers in the forest.
In the end, it was Sun Jian, who stayed in the base camp and was ready to block Lu Bu's back road. Sun Jian first discovered that Lü Bu's army was gone, and there was no fighting where it should be. Sun Jian was in the east, and the troops on the north and south sides were separated from him not long after, and the three sides were very close, so it could be said that if there was a battle on either side, Sun Jian would get the news quickly. So Sun Jian was sure that Lu Bu should have run to the west. As for whether it is southwest or northwest, it is difficult to say.
Just as Sun Jian was about to make a decision, the news of the attack on Huang Gai in the north came.
This is Lu Bu's plan?!
I have to say that Sun Jian was extremely surprised when he got the news for the first time, Lu Bu must have guessed that this was a trap and deliberately pretended to be fooled, so he had the current arrangement. Then, the people Lu Bu brought with him may be very few, just pretending to be a large army, and it is precisely because there are few people that they can easily disperse and hide in the mountains and forests. And the real point of attack is in the north! Of course, it is not excluded that there are other directions.
Thinking of this, Sun Jian didn't dare to hesitate, and immediately made a decision, directly leading the troops north to help Huang Gai. At the same time, send someone to inform Cheng Pu in the west and Han Dang in the south to go to the north to meet immediately, and other directions may encounter the enemy at any time, and holding together is the best choice now.
As for the original plan, besiege and kill Lu Bu? Sun Jian didn't think about it so much, since he had already decided that this was the enemy's plan, Sun Jian felt that it would be quite good to ensure that the Jiangdong Army would not lose in the first place.
At this time, Sun Jian didn't expect that what was waiting for him was not just a loss, but a big victory!
·······
On this side,
Sun Quan, who didn't know how far he had run, finally saw Cheng Pubu who came to help, seeing this, Sun Quan turned around and laughed,
"Hahaha, Lu Bu! Fooled for it! You're already surrounded! ”
Lu Bu was a little hesitant when he saw Jiangdong Army, but now after listening to Sun Quan's words, he immediately stopped advancing.
And Sun Ce and Cheng Pu, who hurried over, almost didn't scold their mother.
Although they may not be Lü Bu's opponents, they are never afraid to engage Lü Bu, on the contrary, Cheng Pu's purpose is to engage Lü Bu in order to drag Lü Bu here and wait for the Jiangdong army from other directions to come back and encircle.
Now Sun Quan is good, and he is going to scare Lu Bu away with a word. Could it be that Sun Quan didn't realize that he had run in the wrong direction from the beginning, and thought that he had successfully led Lu Bu into the trap?
Question: What should Cheng Pu and Sun Ce do now?
Enthusiastically grabbed Lu Bu and said, we are just this person, you don't have to be afraid at all, sit down and have a cup of tea before leaving?
As for the direct charge, no matter what, hit it first? Just kidding, when Lu Bu sees that people like you dare to be so unscrupulous, he will even think that there is a problem, is Lu Bu really a fool!
So, the two sides of the people stopped, hesitated, about three or five hundred meters apart. The two sides looked at each other from afar, and no one moved first, just watching Sun Quan riding a horse, running back to his position slowly.
It's over, Sun Quan probably didn't feel cool enough, and finally turned around and mocked Lu Bu,
"Who said I was going to die? I see who is going to die today! ”
"Sun Quan!!"
Lu Bu roared angrily, almost unable to control his temper.
But it was a general next to him who suddenly grabbed Lu Bu and whispered a few words beside him, pointing at this side while talking, and Lu Bu gradually quieted down.
Sun Quan squinted, because of the cover of the night, he couldn't see clearly, but Lu Bu's side was a talent who could speak, Zhang Liao? Gao Shun?
"Second brother! You made a mistake! Ay! ”
Sun Ce came to Sun Quan's side and wanted to say something, but in the end he just sighed heavily.
There is no shortage of smart people around Lu Bu, and the Jiangdong Army was able to appear in such a short period of time, and Cheng Pu personally led the team, so he didn't have to guess to know that it was a trap.
When I was just on the grain transport side, I obviously didn't see these soldiers, the distance was so close, why didn't these people escort Sun Quan and Sun Ce to transport grain? Doesn't this make it clear that he deliberately dragged it behind and waited for Lu Bu to be fooled!
People's mentality is like this, even if the Jiangdong army is now standing in front of him, Lu Bu dares to fight a dozen, but once he finds out that he has fallen into a trap and been deceived, Lu Bu subconsciously thinks that it is not a decisive battle, but a retreat.
"Sun Quan, your head will be mine sooner or later!"
Lu Bu finally said a cruel word, and after speaking, he did not panic and slowly retreated. This is a normal withdrawal of troops, not an embarrassed escape, which is definitely not a good opportunity, but Cheng Pu can only catch up with him, otherwise, he will really let Lu Bu run away.
The two sides went one after the other, and there were some sparks, until soon after, Sun Jian sent someone to send a message for Cheng Pu to lead his troops north to converge.
