Chapter 106: Preparing for Liangshan and Defending Yanggu
Cao Cao instructed the regimental training soldiers to return to the school field first, get equipment and weapons, and then go to the south gate of Yanggu County to meet peace.
Surrounded by He Fei and the people, Cao Cao took the lead in coming to the south gate, he carefully inquired about the history of each soldier's war, and concluded with a sigh: "Zhao Jie was greedy for merit and rashly advanced, resulting in many deaths and injuries among the soldiers defending the city, and he should be beheaded!" ”
Hearing what happened, He Fei asked puzzledly: "Wudu Supervisor, why did the Liangshan thief Kou choose to retreat instead after a major victory?" ”
Cao Cao smiled contemptuously, and a gleam appeared in his eyes: "The old skills are repeated, and the donkey skills are poor!" Liangshan's military advisors are nothing more than that. Lord He, you might as well think about it, why did Zhao Jie order the soldiers to go out of the city to face the battle? ”
He Fei thought for a moment and said, "Zhao Jie saw that the soldiers and horses of Liangshan were retreating, so he ordered the soldiers defending the city to go out of the city in order to expand the results of the battle. ”
Cao Cao looked at the woods outside the city and explained, "Yes, that time Liangshan used a trick to lure the enemy deeper. It's a pity that Zhao Jie couldn't see through such a shallow plan, so he was greedy for merit and rushed forward, and he fell into the hands of the enemy, resulting in a big mistake. ”
"But in the end, this time is different, obviously they have seriously injured the Yanggu guard, why retreat? Logically speaking, shouldn't you attack the city in one go? Thinking of this question, He Fei asked puzzled.
Cao Cao has been in the battle formation for a long time, of course he knows the importance of the balance of forces between the enemy and us, considering that Yanggu County is the defending side of the city, occupying a favorable geographical position, and there are not many people in Liangshan, it is not suitable for a strong attack at all.
Therefore, Cao Cao explained: "Lord He looks up to the Liangshan bandits too much, according to the soldiers, they are not many in number, only two or three hundred, although they have severely damaged the defenders of our Yanggu. But this point of men and horses, only by surprise can break through the city defense, and if you attack strongly, you can't take any advantage. ”
"And what are they?"
Cao Cao said confidently: "Hmph, carving insect skills, and dare to get an axe." They are suspicious, and if I am right, they will make a comeback tonight! ”
When He Fei and the people heard Cao Cao's judgment, they were all shocked, and they couldn't help but discuss: "If this is the case, what should we do?" The Metropolitan Supervisor should prepare in advance. ”
"Yes, if the thieves are allowed to enter Yanggu City, the people will suffer."
"Don't panic, everyone, with the Martial Immortals here, we will definitely be able to repel the Liangshan bandits."
……
Cao Cao motioned for everyone to be quiet, and said confidently: "Now that I have seen through his conspiracy, I have a way to deal with it." Lord He, there is an urgent shortage of weapons in regimental training, do you know where there are ready-made weapons? ”
He Fei thought for a while and hurriedly said, "There should be some of them there, but there are not many of them. ”
Although Cao Cao was released, he was arrested as soon as the regimental training was formed, so there was a serious shortage of equipment, which would greatly limit the combat effectiveness of the regimental training soldiers.
In the face of the tense situation, Cao Cao didn't have the opportunity to pick and choose at all, he hurriedly replied: "That's better than nothing, now that Zhao Jie is closed, and the soldiers are unmanaged, he will not be stopped." Please lead the way, Gao Chong, you take your brothers to get weapons. ”
"Yes!" Gao Chong agreed.
After sending He Fei and Gao Chong away, Cao Cao shouted to the people: "Folks in Yanggu County, the Liangshan thieves are not terrible, with me, they will definitely not be able to get in." Go home, eat and drink, as you normally would. ”
"Yes, let's go quickly, don't delay the preparation of the Martial Immortals, with him, Yanggu County must be fine." It's all gone, it's all gone. Zheng Rui, Ximenqing and others heard Cao Cao's words and took the initiative to maintain order at the scene and evacuate the people.
When the people were almost gone, Zheng Rui took the squires of Yanggu County to Cao Cao: "Wudujian, the safety of Yanggu County depends on you." ”
Cao Cao frowned, and said treacherously: "Well, you have all seen it, the current regimental training soldiers lack weapons, how can they defeat the enemy with their bare hands?" Therefore, after this battle, the matter of weapons will depend on you. ”
"Haha, it's easy to say, it's easy to say." The corners of Zheng Rui's mouth twitched a few times, and they left the south gate of Yanggu County as if they fled, they were worried that if they stayed longer, Cao Cao would make even more excessive demands.
Cao Cao looked at their backs and couldn't help laughing.
Although it is indeed a bit unkind to ask them for military expenses just after being rescued, Cao Cao also has unspeakable secrets.
If you don't take advantage of the crisis of Liangshan's attack on the city, I'm afraid it will be more difficult in the future, after all, no one wants to be the wrongdoer.
Although it is a little embarrassing, the timing is the best.
With Cao Cao's style, he naturally won't lose his heart for the sake of face.
Cao Cao carefully analyzed the actions of the Liangshan people, and then called out to Yan Ning and asked, "In your opinion, where will they attack?" ”
Yan Ning glanced at Cao Cao and said tentatively: "Lord Metropolitan Eunuch, I guess it's the North Gate!" ”
"Why?"
Yan Ning explained: "If they set up a suspicious formation and use a small group of men and horses to feint to attack the south gate, then the large army going around the north gate can have a more unexpected effect." ”
"Yes, the south gate is the farthest away from the north gate, so when we find out, we can't send people to support in time. However, they must not know that we still have 500 people to practice. This time, let them have no return! ”
In fact, Cao Cao had already considered these things, and now it was just a test of Yan Ning, and when he heard Yan Ning's answer, Cao Cao appreciated it very much.
Cao Cao knew that defending the city was a matter of great importance, and no accidents could happen, so he said cautiously: "In order to prevent accidents, we can arrange most of the men and horses to meet the enemy at the north gate, and put those soldiers who have no weapons or equipment at the east gate, west gate, and south gate, in case things change, we can also wait until the reinforcements arrive, so that nothing goes wrong." ”
Yan Ning said with admiration: "My lord is thoughtful, Yan Ning is not as good, so that we can not only ensure safety, but also concentrate superior forces to annihilate the enemy." ”
Cao Cao arranged: "This south gate will be guarded by you tonight." Remember, don't go out of the city to meet the enemy, just act with them, don't startle the snake. ”
"My subordinates understand!"
After arranging the south gate, Cao Cao took Wang Wu and Tian Chao to the north gate of Yanggu County, and Cao Cao carefully checked the city defense and the terrain outside the north gate.
"Do you want a small victory, or a big victory?" Cao Cao asked suddenly.
Wang Wu pulled out his axe and said excitedly: "Do you need to talk about this? Of course, they killed them without leaving a piece of armor, so that this group of cubs would be afraid when they mentioned Yanggu County in the future, and completely cut off their idea of invading Yanggu County. ”
Tian Chao echoed: "I think so too, if you want to beat them, it hurts them." But my lord, what do we do to win? ”
Cao Cao smiled ghostly, already confident: "In this case, we will strive to completely annihilate this group of Liangshan people and horses, and let them know that we can't afford to be provoked in Yanggu County!" ”
"Tota Heavenly King Chao Gai, Zhiduoxing Wu Yong, and red-haired ghost Liu Tang, I want to let you have no return, and you will die in Yang Valley!"
Cao Cao said confidently, obviously having a good plan in his chest.
Cao Cao's first battle since the crossing is about to start, and this also means that he officially stepped onto the historical stage of the Northern Song Dynasty and wrote a brilliant legendary life!
