Wan County, Cao Jun Battalion. шщш.(vii) (ix) x.S.сом The update is so fast.

The big tent of the Chinese army!

Directly above sat a person, born with a short figure, but with a majestic face and sharp eyes, which people did not dare to despise.

This person is none other than Cao ''.

It was the end of May, and the weather was getting hotter.

Cao '' is also a little unaccustomed to the feeling of the southern 'tide' wet, feeling that the weather is a little hot, but there is a feeling of wet-moist on his body, which is very unaccustomed. But he didn't say anything after all, and his eyes fell on Cao Ren.

The war in Nanyang County was mainly in charge of Cao Ren.

Cao's '' fingers lightly tapped on the desk and said, "Zixiao, the last time I was attacked by Liu Xiu's army, I failed to attack Xinye. Now, have you relieved?"

A touch of embarrassment appeared on Cao Ren's face, and he said, "Lord, the last general can fight again at any time." ”

The last time Cao Ren saw that the Yizhou army was attacking Xinye, Liu Bei's army was in danger, and it had not reached a situation of parity. Therefore, he immediately sent troops, wanting to prevent the Yizhou army from winning, who knows, soon after the army was killed, it was ambushed, so that the army was defeated like a mountain, and the loss of troops was broken, not only failed to control the situation in Nanyang County, but was beaten upside down.

Cao '' and said: "It's good to be able to fight again, if you can fight again, there is no need to change people." ”

Cao Ren hugged his fists and said: "Prime Minister, the last general will definitely defeat Liu Xiu in this battle." ”

In fact, Cao 'Cao' went south this time, he led 5,000 light cavalry, and took Cheng Yu, Xun You, and Jia Xu to the south first. The follow-up army is still on the way.

And the news of the dispatch of troops, Cao 'Cao' did not publicize it.

At present, no one knows the news of Cao's '' going south.

Cao 'Cao' changed his words and said: "To defeat Liu Xiu, the first hurdle now is to defeat the Yizhou army stationed in Xinye. The Yizhou army was led by Yizhou General Zhang Ren, and it is said that this person was quite difficult to deal with. In the short time he spent in Nanyang County, he had conquered all counties, recruited soldiers, and increased his control over Nanyang County. Is this news accurate? ”

Cao Ren replied: "Back to the prime minister, this is indeed the case. Zhang Ren is a person with outstanding martial arts and is also familiar with the art of war, so he is not an easy person. ”

Cao Cao' said: "It is a good thing to pay attention to the enemy. But if you pay too much attention to it, it's not good. Any enemy, as long as you 'spend' your mind, can always be overcome. ”

"Yes!"

Cao Ren nodded, accepting Cao's '' lesson.

Cao 'Cao' looked at the people under the tent and said, "What we have to consider now is how to quickly take Nanyang County, what suggestions do you have?"

Xun You chuckled twice and said, "The lord is going south this time, except for the troops under General Cao Ren. Subsequently, nearly 200,000 troops will arrive. In addition, there were tens of thousands of 'elite' cavalry. Such a mighty force cannot be stopped. In the lower opinion, the lord only needs to send a general from Wudang County to lead his troops to attack Zhuyang County. ”

Xun You continued: "Zhuyang County borders Fangling County, which is the main road from Yizhou Army to Yizhou. As long as Zhuyang County falls, the Yizhou army is isolated and helpless, and it will definitely collapse without a fight. ”

is the so-called snake hitting seven inches, Xun Yu's strategy is to hit the seven inches in Yizhou.

Zhuyang County is the place where Nanyang County and Yizhou border, once Cao 'Cao' waved his army to attack Zhuyang County, then Zhang Ren, who was stationed in Xinye, would definitely be under tremendous pressure.

After all, after the fall of Zhuyang County, Zhang Ren was alone

Jia Xu smiled and said: "The old man agrees with Gongda's suggestion, Zhang Ren is the general of Yizhou, and he is stationed in Xinye, so he must also be paying attention to the situation." Now the lord led 5,000 'elite' cavalry to the south first, and no one knew. ”

In such a situation, perhaps Zhang Ren will also choose the same strategy and directly attack Wan County, intending to relieve the pressure on Zhuyang County and Fangling County. At that time, the 'elite' cavalry under the command of the lord will rush and kill, and Zhang Ren will be defeated. ”

Jia Xu stroked his beard and said, "At the same time, after breaking through Zhuyang County, Zhang Ren, who was stationed in Nanyang County, was a lone army. Once Zhang Ren is eliminated, it will also be a great blow to Yizhou. Invisibly, it is also to knock Yizhou Liu Zhang, so that he does not have to get involved in outside affairs. ”

"Wonderful!"

A smile appeared in Cao's '' eyes.

As a leader and a person who is good at marching and fighting, Cao Cao' knows that a commander is definitely unwilling to rescue a besieged place, and the best way is to resolve the crisis by knocking on the side, because the danger encountered is smaller and easier.

Cao 'Cao' looked at Cao Ren and instructed, "Cao Ren, do you understand what to do?"

Cao Ren hugged his fists and said: "Lord, the last general understands." It's just that the last general led the army to attack Zhuyang County. Please rest assured that the last general will definitely fight a beautiful victory. ”

Cao '' nodded, and Cao Ren retired.

After Cao Ren left, he mobilized 10,000 troops and went to Wudang County. Wudang County is located in the northwest of Nanyang County, bordering Zhuyang County. Cao Ren's army suddenly moved south from Wudang County and directly 'pressed' towards Zhuyang County.

After the news reached Zhang Ren's ears, Zhang Ren took out the map and carefully judged the situation.

Zhang Ren's judgment is the same as Xun You's analysis.

Zhuyang County is the main road to Yizhou and must not be lost. But Zhang Ren defeated Cao Ren last time with the help of Liu Xiu's forces. This time, Cao Ren must have a trick to kill, so Zhang Ren concluded that going to the rescue was not the best choice.

Moreover, Cao Ren led an army of 10,000 to leave, which meant that Wanxian was empty.

After Zhang Ren thought about it, he made a plan to attack Wanxian County.

This action, Zhang Ren carried out with great fanfare, that is, to let Cao Ren know. Zhang Ren led an army of 10,000 to the north, but after the news came out, Cao Ren still insisted on attacking Zhuyang County. This situation made Zhang Ren have no choice but to give it a go and directly attack Wanxian.

When the army was 'pressing' close to Wanxian, Zhang Ren met the five thousand 'elite' Rui Qiqi led by Xu Huang.

On the official road, 5,000 'elite' sharp Qiyu encountered 10,000 'elite' infantry.

There were no accidents, even though Zhang Ren was 'fine' in the battle formation and constantly resisted, but the 10,000 'fine' sharps were still defeated. Zhang Ren led the army to retreat, and Zhang Ren marched and set up the formation, leaving a back hand, and there was a corresponding army to be able to safely withdraw from Wanxian.

After Zhang Ren's army withdrew from Wanxian County, it was again intercepted in Jianyang County.

After a fight, Zhang Ren still escaped.

It's just that the 10,000 'elites' he brought out at the beginning have only more than 1,000 left now.

The losses in this battle were far beyond Zhang Ren's calculations. After quickly withdrawing to Xinye, Zhang Ren immediately replenished the soldiers, and then strengthened the control of Yi County, 'Yin' County, Zhangling County and other places. It's just that news came from Zhuyang County that Zhuyang County was defeated by Cao Ren's army and finally fell.

When this news came out, Zhang Ren felt a lot of pressure.

In this battle, Zhang Ren was defeated in a daze.

The most important thing is that his every move is actually in the other party's calculations. Cao Ren attacked Zhuyang County, and the other party calculated that he would go to Wanxian County to attack, and then arranged for five thousand 'elite' cavalry to wait, and then gave him a fatal blow. He retreated to Jianyang County, and the other party arranged for soldiers to intercept him, which caused him heavy losses.

In the continuous 'exchange' of hands, he fell behind.

There are masters behind Cao Ren, this is Zhang Ren's first thought.

After Zhang Ren's defeat, especially when he deduced that there was someone behind Cao Ren, he immediately ordered the soldiers to garrison Xinye County, and then went directly to Xiangyang, preparing to ask Liu Xiu to send troops to assist.
