The movements of the Wei army in Wancheng were quickly detected by the spies of the Han army, and then they were sent to Guan Yu's eucalyptus head soon after.

Whether it was Zhu Shuo's leading the army south, or Wancheng's messengers constantly going to various places, every move of the Wei army was falling in Guan Yu's eyes without falling at all.

The cavalry in the Han army is precious, and the dozen or so light cavalry teams sent by Guan Yu before were not just for spreading the news.

When the footprints of the dozen or so light horsemen were all over the inside and outside of Nanyang County, they also acted as scouts.

When Guan Yu learned of all Cao Pi's actions, he immediately summoned a general who was currently in the camp to discuss the matter.

Under the convening of Liao Hua, many generals who were in a state of combat readiness at all times came to Guan Yu's big tent.

After the generals arrived, they all took their seats in their own order, waiting for Guan Yu to give instructions for the next step.

But just after all the generals were seated, a heavyweight came belatedly.

This person is Ma Chao, the Han hussar general who is currently in the army, and his rank is only below Guan Yu.

Ma Chao's position as a hussar general is one level higher than Zhang Fei's chariot general.

It's just that when this heavyweight arrived, the generals who were still talking and laughing with each other were silenced in unison.

With suspicious eyes, the generals watched this mighty God Mighty General enter the big tent.

The suspicious gazes of the generals were not concealed at all.

At present, as long as there are loyal people in the entire big tent, they don't have a good impression of Ma Chao.

No matter how great his prestige is, how high his status is.

Of course, Ma Chao also knows what his impression is in everyone's minds, but he has also gotten used to it over the years.

It is precisely because he knows that after he came to the camp some time ago, he took Ma Dai and his subordinates to find another camp far away, not next to the camp tents of the Han generals.

That's why he's late today.

After Ma Chao took Ma Dai into the big tent, Ma Dai found a seat to sit down according to his status, and Ma Chao went straight to a position to take a seat.

And the place where Ma Chao sat was right next to Mi Yang.

Originally, according to the upper and lower ranks, Ma Chao should have sat in the closest place to Guan Yu, and there was a Zhang Fei between Mi Yang and Ma Chao.

But he couldn't bear the good personal relationship between Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, plus Zhang Fei despised Ma Chao's personality.

So as soon as he entered the big tent, he immediately walked to Guan Yu's side and sat down.

Obviously, Zhang Fei didn't want to sit with Ma Chao.

But this is also normal, if Liu Bei will release kindness to Ma Chao for the sake of the overall situation, then Zhang Fei, who has a jealous and hateful personality, definitely does not want to be with Ma Chao.

Zhang Fei didn't take out the spear and fought with Ma Chao for hundreds of rounds, which was already for the overall situation.

Mi Yang looked at Ma Chao, who was like a tiger, with vigorous steps, and came to sit down beside him.

Putting aside Ma Chao's personal qualities for the time being, if you just talk about the degree of personal bravery, whether in history or in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Ma Chao is fully worthy of the word divine might.

Ma Chao in Mi Yang's eyes, in terms of personal appearance, is actually like a crown jade and more like a scholar.

【Mi Han】 【】

But Ma Chao's figure is very strong, and between his movements, his whole person is like a tiger ready to go, intending to choose people to devour.

The most rare thing is that Ma Chao's sturdy figure and his appearance like a crown of jade do not contradict each other, but the two are mixed together to form a very special beauty.

Ma Chao's whole skin is very in line with the mainstream aesthetics of the world, masculine and heroic.

So there is only the wrong name, not the wrong nickname, and the reputation of Jinma Chao is just right for the person in front of him.

It's just that when Ma Chao took a seat next to Mi Yang, Zhang Fei, who was sitting next to Guan Yu, glanced at Ma Chao with disdain.

At first, when Ma Chao had just surrendered to Liu Bei, Guan Yu heard about this incident and wrote to Zhuge Liang because Ma Chao was not an old man, who could compare Ma Chao's talents.

Zhuge Liang knew that Guan Yu had the meaning of being competitive, so he wrote back to Guan Yu and said: "Ma Chao can be compared with Yide, but he can't be compared with you. ”

Guan Yu was very happy when he saw the letter and showed it to all the guests.

When this happened, Guan Yu was happy, but Zhang Fei was quite unhappy.

There are even some grievances.

Thinking that he Zhang Fei has been loyal and righteous all his life, no one in the world knows, Zhuge Liang actually said that Ma Chao is the same person as him, which will of course make the third master taste.

It's just that Zhang Fei also knew that Zhuge Liang was trying to appease Ma Chao and Guan Yu at that time.

In addition, Zhuge Liang only said that Ma Chao's ability was similar to him, and he didn't say anything about morality, so Zhang Fei didn't have a seizure at that time.

But Zhang Fei has always kept this matter in his heart, and he has always had a lot of energy in his heart, thinking that one day he will compete with Ma Chao.

Zhang Fei looked at Ma Chao with a warlike gaze, and Ma Chao, who had keen senses, certainly felt it.

It's just that he knows that Zhang Fei's identity is not comparable to him, so he pretended not to see Zhang Fei's gaze and deliberately put his head to the other side.

Zhang Fei's movements were clearly seen by Guan Yu, who was sitting next to him, but he could also understand Zhang Fei's thoughts.

If Zhuge Liang hadn't said that, he would have challenged Ma Chao a long time ago.

It's just that today he gathered the generals to discuss the next step of the army, so after Guan Yu warned Zhang Fei with his eyes, he opened his mouth and told the information he received.

And when the generals of the Han army gathered heard the news that the Wei army had finally made a move, everyone's face showed excitement.

The tortoise turns into a rabbit and will start moving.

Looking at the excitement on the faces of the generals after hearing the news, Guan Yu nodded with satisfaction.

As the head coach, the most important thing for him is not to give advice, but to play a good role as a leader.

As a leader, the first role is to judge whether the military spirit is available.

In what he had just said, the generals of the Han army already knew that the Wei army outside Yancheng now had 60,000 troops, and the strength was comparable to theirs.

Coupled with the inference from the news that messengers were constantly being sent out in Wancheng, there would be more and more Wei troops gathered outside Yancheng.

But despite this, there was no fear on the faces of the generals of the Han army, which shows that the military spirit of the generals is still very high.

This kind of military spirit makes Guan Yu have greater confidence in the next decisive battle.

【Mi Han】 【】

It's just that Guan Yu, as the commander-in-chief, of course, can't sit back and watch the enemy army assemble so unscrupulously.

So, Guan Yu issued an order to the generals:

"From tomorrow, our army will retreat from outside Fancheng and slowly retreat all the way to Hanshui."

When Guan Yu's order was issued, some of the generals of the Han army in the big tent began to have puzzled looks on their faces.

Now that the Wei army has begun to make moves, why are they withdrawing now?

But after thinking about it carefully, the generals understood Guan Yu's intentions.

Guan Yu's intentions have three layers, the first is that Guan Yu is worried that in the future when he fights the Wei army, the Wei army in Fancheng will attack them back and forth.

Although Fancheng is now surrounded by the Han army, Guan Yu's purpose from the beginning was to encircle the point and send reinforcements, so he did not attack Fancheng.

The Wei army in Fancheng did not experience the defense of the city and was not damaged.

In this case, once their army starts to fight the Wei army in the coming day, and take advantage of this opportunity to surprise them from behind, then it will be very dangerous.

There is no barrier guarded by soldiers, just dead things.

If they choose to withdraw from Fancheng, the 60,000 Han troops can shrink the defensive line and hand over their backs to friendly forces with water control.

The second intention of Guan Yu's move was that once the news of his withdrawal from Fancheng reached Cao Pi's ears, then Cao Pi would think that the Han army was afraid and wanted to escape.

As soon as Cao Pi had this thought, he would once again issue an edict urging Zhang Liao to attack them.

In this way, it is equivalent to invisibly cracking Cao Pi's practice of convening good generals from all over the world.

Guan Yu's purpose of encircling the reinforcements was just to eat the 30,000 Wei troops in Zhang Liao's hands, and he didn't want to rely on the 60,000 Han troops in his hands to single-handedly take on the entire Great Wei.

Even if Guan Yu had this ability, the Great Han did not currently have the national strength to support Guan Yu to eat Cao Wei's entire field army.

As for whether Cao Pi would issue an edict to Zhang Liao to march quickly after hearing that the Han army had the intention of retreating, this is a yes.

Cao Pixing's division was because of anger, so he definitely couldn't stand the humiliation of the Han army, and he could still retreat safely with a swagger.

If this is the case, there will be no way to wash away the shame he has suffered this time.

And Guan Yu's third intention is more obscure.

Once the Han army withdrew from Fancheng, it would represent the freedom of Cao Xiu in Fancheng.

Originally, the commander of the 60,000 Han army would be Zhang Liao, but once Cao Xiu, who was the general of Zhennan and a relative of the Cao clan, came out of Fancheng, would the commander of the 60,000 Wei army still be Zhang Liao?

You must know that Cao Xiu is not the second generation of Cao Tai.

Although Cao Xiu is nominally the second generation, the time he actually followed Cao Cao was not much shorter than that of Cao Ren, Cao Hong and other generations.

And the most important thing is that Cao Xiu has military exploits, and when Cao Cao was alive, he relied on Cao Xiu very much.

What's more, using the Cao clan to dominate generals with different surnames has been an unspoken rule in the Wei army for many years.

And changing generals in battle is a taboo for soldiers.

Even if Cao Pi can not change the main general, will Cao Xiu, a relative of the Cao family, be willing to be under Zhang Liao, the second general with a different surname?

The disagreement between the generals and the commanders is also a taboo for soldiers.

【Mi Han】 【】

This is Guan Yu's yang strategy, and this is also Guan Yu's upright way of using troops to retreat.

Of course, there are only a few people who can understand Guan Yu's third-layer intentions in the big tent.

With Guan Yu's current status and prestige, the orders he gave did not need to be explained too much, and they could be convincing to everyone.

After giving this order, Guan Yu discussed some things with the generals, and after discussing all the things, Guan Yu asked the generals in the big tent to go down one after another to act according to the order.

Before all the generals left, Guan Yu asked Ma Chao and Mi Yang to stay.

When Ma Chao heard Guan Yu's order, he didn't know what Guan Yu wanted.

It's just that Guan Yu's current prestige and prestige are above him, so in the face of Guan Yu's order, Ma Chao can only take orders.

In the current army of the entire Han Dynasty, except for Liu Bei, I am afraid that only the moving horses commanded by Guan Yu are super.

And Mi Yang faced Guan Yu's order, of course, there would be no doubts.

It's just that after Ma Chao and Mi Yang stayed, in addition to Guan Yu, there was a third party in this big tent.

That person is Zhang Fei.....

Guan Yu didn't care what Zhang Fei was doing in the big tent, after all the generals left, Guan Yu took the lead in getting up and walking in front of Ma Chao, and asked Ma Chao:

"I heard that Meng Qi came this time and brought three thousand warriors from Qiangqi?"

Hearing Guan Yu suddenly ask him about this, Ma Chao felt a sigh in his heart.

At the time of the initial battle, Ma Chao instigated more than 10,000 people from the seven divisions of Lei Ding of the Di clan to respond to Liu Bei and contain the main force of Cao's vanguard.

Although the tens of thousands of warriors of the Di tribe later suffered heavy losses in the war, there were still some left.

In addition, there are some Qiang people who follow Ma Chao's side, so there are currently nearly 3,000 Qiang warriors around Ma Chao.

The three thousand Qiang warriors were willing to follow Ma Chao entirely because of his prestige as General Shenweitian.

These 3,000 Qiang warriors have always been Ma Chao's private soldiers, and after Liu Bei knew about this, he did not deprive him of this part of his military power.

This time he went south, in order to protect himself, Ma Chao brought all the 3,000 Qiang warriors in Chuyang.

Because the purpose of carrying the Qiang Warrior was not pure, when Guan Yu asked about it, Ma Chao's face showed some panic.

Seeing this, Zhang Fei unconsciously pressed his hand on his saber.

Later, he found that it was Guan Yu who was currently standing in front of Ma Chao, and he silently let down the guard in his heart.

The reason why Ma Chao was a little flustered was that he thought that Guan Yu had doubts about him carrying three thousand Qiang warriors by his side.

After all, the alien race is not welcome in the first place, let alone the alien race led by him.

In a panic, Ma Chao first replied to Guan Yu: "Exactly." ”

After answering these two words, Ma Chao was going to continue to explain with his fists, but Guan Yu did not give him this opportunity.

Guan Yu said to Ma Chao: "In the previous battle, our army broke the enemy's cavalry and captured many war horses and cavalry armor, and I will order someone to send those to your camp in a while." ”

"With these, Meng Qi has the confidence to make those 3,000 Qiang warriors become an invincible cavalry in a short period of time?"

After Guan Yu finished speaking, Ma Chaofang knew what Guan Yu's real purpose was when he asked him.

【Mi Han】 【】

In fact, Guan Yu's attitude towards Ma Chao is similar to Zhang Fei's, that is, there is absolutely no trust.

But Guan Yu didn't trust Ma Chao, but he trusted Liu Bei very much.

He knew that since Liu Bei would send Ma Chao to the front line, it meant that Liu Bei thought that Ma Chao was available, and Liu Bei's gaze Guan Yu was convinced.

So Guan Yu didn't want to test Ma Chao at all, what he wanted now was just to maximize Ma Chao's effectiveness.

And what Guan Yu said was the reason why he asked Liu Bei to summon Ma Chao to Fancheng before.

Hearing Guan Yu's meaning, Ma Chao's heart instantly stabilized.

Seeing Guan Yu ask about his strengths, Ma Chao's face immediately showed arrogance, and he said to Guan Yu:

"Don't worry, general, within three days, Chao will definitely form a tiger and wolf cavalry army."

In three days, a whole wolf-like cavalry army was formed, and if others said so, anyone would think he was talking big.

But now it is Ma Chao who says so, and his words give people a sense of trust.

What tigers and leopards ride, what Wuhuan famous horses, were once defeated by the cavalry led by Ma Chao.
