Chapter 869: Frustration

The Xiliang army retreated, and Zhang Liao led the army to chase and kill for a while, and returned victorious.

"How are you?" Zhang Liao looked at Yan Liang with a worried expression.

Although Yan Liang was only injured in his left arm, his whole body was wrapped in a strange energy, which was extremely destructive, making his face like gold paper and shaky.

Nodding reluctantly, signaling that he was okay, Yan Liang informed Huang Zhong of the matter, which made Zhang Liao frown slightly: "The same knife technique? How can there be such a coincidence in the world? ”

Yan Liang said: "I suspect that this person has something to do with the lord, but I don't prevent him from breaking out, if it weren't for Wen Chou's rescue, I'm afraid he would die on the spot!" ”

Zhang Liao was speechless, frowning and pondering, if Huang Zhong was not his own strategy, then why did he use the same knife technique as Zhang Fan? But if Huang Zhong was his own strategy, why did he kill Yan Liang in the end? It simply doesn't make sense!

Since he couldn't figure it out, he simply didn't think about it, Zhang Liao personally repaired a letter and sent it to Zhang Fan, telling him in detail about the things here, and waiting for the decision.

It had been two days since Zhang Fan received the letter, and when he opened the letter, his face changed very excitingly: "Huang Zhong? How could that old guy appear in the Xiliang Army? ”

This is a bit impolite, but it is very kind to Zhang Fan, Huang Zhong belonged to him in his previous life, the relationship between the two is very good, they are also teachers and friends, Zhang Fan has been like this, Huang Zhong does not care, and even Zhang Fan once thought that I am afraid that Huang Zhong's son died of illness, so this admirable veteran regards himself as a nephew, so he will accommodate it in every possible way, and teach what he has learned all his life.

Thinking of Huang Zhong, Zhang Fan felt a lot of warmth in his heart, but the two people who were once so close are now at the end of the road, and Huang Zhong is even more here to attack him, how should this be good?

After thinking for a long time, Zhang Fan said: "Now that there is no war in Jibei, I want to go to Guangping County to have a look in person, what do you think?" ”

Xu Shu groaned slightly, and said: "The coalition army has just met the alliance, and it has chosen to raise troops from Bingzhou and launch an offensive, and it will inevitably concentrate on that side, and now Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and others are not in Qingzhou, the situation here can be completely controlled, the lord can go to it, and the matter here is left to us!" ”

Tiebi Yanyang and others nodded, Cao Cao waited for no attack, and it was not a way to stay here stupidly, but it was better to find a way to defeat the vanguard of the coalition army and give it a setback, so that it would be easier to do it next.

Zhang Fan thought about it carefully and found that it was really feasible, but there were two peak generals there, Ma Chao and Huang Zhong, and he probably couldn't please him if he went over like this, so he finally decided to take Zhao Yun with him!

In this regard, Zhang Fan and Zhao Yun went to Guangping County lightly, leaving behind the iron wall of the hot sun, and Xu Shu and Zhang Jaw and others guarded in Jibei, always monitoring the movements of Cao Yuan's two armies, and reporting immediately if there was anything.

Zhang Fan set off, and at this time the Xiliang army has also finished resting, now the Xiliang army is really extremely aggrieved, blocked in the Taihang Mountains, there are felled trees everywhere, it looks desolate, there is nowhere to camp, can only be stationed in the open air, summer to autumn, mosquitoes are still very much, the soldiers are unbearable, these two days are bitter, the morale of the army has dropped a lot.

"It's not the way to go on like this!"

Ma Chao said angrily: "We must break through as much as possible, seize a city as the foundation, and then attack!" ”

Immediately, Ma Chao summoned the whole army, readjusted the formation, let the cavalry in front, ready to break through in one fell swoop, he knew that Zhang Liao must be intercepted at the mouth of the valley, but with the strength of the Liang cavalry in the west, it will definitely be able to break through in one fell swoop and break through, and then the Jizhou army will become a lamb to be slaughtered.

"Zhang Liao is brave and strategic, not to be underestimated, he must be tested first!" Huang Zhong said calmly.

"Don't grow the morale of others and destroy your own prestige!" Pound sneered: "In the face of absolute strength, a strategy is just a floating cloud!" We were indeed too eager to do it before, but now that we are ready, the Jizhou Army is definitely not an opponent! ”

Huang Zhong glanced at him and stopped talking, this person is brave, but he is obviously too reckless and not a general.

Ma Chao agreed with Huang Zhong's words very much, now the Jizhou army must have made sufficient preparations, and such a direct conflict is the work of a reckless man, although he is very confident in his own strength, but this way of fighting is not appropriate after all, and more changes are needed.

He said: "You can send cavalry to charge first, and return with defeat, but set up an ambush in the valley to lure and annihilate the enemy, and if the enemy army does not enter the valley, we can concentrate our forces to charge again, the enemy army can not expect that we will advance twice, and if we neglect to take precautions, we will have a chance!" ”

Huang Zhong's eyes lit up, this is indeed a good way, he deeply admired it in his heart, he didn't expect that Ma Chao was not only strong in force, but also not weak in resourcefulness, brave and strategic, and talented as a commander!

Having made a plan, Ma Chao led the army to fight and came to Tanikou again.

As far as the eye can see, the valley mouth is densely packed with Jizhou troops, and there is even a camp standing outside, all-round defense, not giving a chance at all.

"This ......"

Pound was dumbfounded, this is inevitably a bit of a bully, it is not enough to defend with troops, and he actually set up a camp on the spot, such a defense is almost difficult to break, how to break through?

Ma Chao was helpless, he came with confidence, but he suffered setbacks one after another, and he couldn't even get out of the Taihang Mountains, let alone conquer Jizhou.

"Who the hell came up with such a sinister idea! It's disgusting to set up a village in Taniguchi! Ma Dai and the others all roared, the defense of this camp was temporarily ignored, but they completely controlled their own field of vision, and as far as the eye could see was a huge tent, which almost filled the field of vision, and the surrounding area was not visible at all, no one knew what the enemy's rear hand was arranged, and it was impossible to let go of it and charge, which was an invisible suppression of the Xiliang army.

can come up with such an idea, naturally only the world-famous poisoner Jia Xu!

When Jia Xu proposed this plan, even Zhang Liao was stunned for a long time, and the corners of his eyes jumped, this is an extremely vicious yang scheme, increasing the defense power while also blindfolding the eyes of the Xiliang army, weakening its combat power in disguise, this plan alone can reach thousands of troops!

In this regard, Jia Xu is a matter of course, the strategy is like this, there is nothing that can't be done, only unexpected, sometimes very simple actions can bring ruinous blows to the enemy, he never gives up any opportunity to weaken the enemy's combat power, accumulate a lot, accumulate weak into strong, this is the way to win!

Zhang Liao is completely convinced of Jia Xu, this person is scheming, and he often does things unexpectedly, no wonder he can be favored by the lord.

"The lord is already on the way here, as long as he blocks the Xiliang army for a moment and frustrates the spirit of the coalition army, the final victory will eventually belong to us!" Zhang Liao smiled, extremely confident.
