The late autumn of the first year of Xingping has passed, and the winter is about to begin, but the troops in Sizhou have no sign of returning, but the fighting is intensifying.

It's late at night, and there's not much light in the sky.

In the school field in the big camp, Cao Cao was standing on the high platform in the school field in the big camp.

In order to ensure the secrecy of this operation, there are not many torches lit in the school field, so as not to be detected by the scouts from Hebei and cause a big deal.

Although Cao Cao's eyes were not bad standing on a high place, in the middle of the night, when the light was limited, Cao Cao still couldn't completely see how many people were standing in the audience.

However, he still has some experience, just from the constant sound of hurried footsteps in the camp, Cao Cao can roughly judge how many people have stood under the stage at this moment.

Of course, all the soldiers in the battalion don't have to come, just the main characters arrive.

Feeling that the middle-level officers who needed to gather under his command had almost gathered, Cao Cao turned to Xiahoudun behind him and said:

"Yuan Rang, this big camp will be handed over to you!"

Xiahoudun, who was previously in charge of the vanguard officer, was left in the camp by Cao Cao this time.

Perhaps this task was more suitable for him than to charge into battle.

In order to ensure the success of Zhang Miao's raid plan, Cao Cao only left Xiahoudun with 3,000 men and horses, and asked him to carefully stick to the camp.

But to be honest, the remaining 3,000 soldiers are all the soldiers with the least combat strength, and Cao Cao is a little worried in his heart.

However, although Xiahoudun is not capable, he can be regarded as an old and serious person, and Cao Cao is the most relieved to leave him.

Xiahoudun could sense Cao Cao's worries, and he smiled calmly:

"Duke Ming just has to fight with peace of mind, there is a certain family, even if Liu Bei personally leads the troops to come, I will discipline him and not leave alive!"

This is somewhat bragging, but Cao Cao is still very pleased, as a general who commands the army, if he doesn't even have this bit of ambition, then is it okay?

Cao Cao said to Xiahoudun: "It stands to reason that I shouldn't have any big problems this time, this battle, I have already explained to everyone in the army, if it is my plan, then take advantage of the situation and conquer Liu Xuande in one fell swoop!" ”

"If Liu Bei sees through my plan...... The generals of the three armies can withdraw their troops without waiting for orders, and the soldiers will meet at Qiliutan, forty miles to the south! ”

"If the attack on Liu Bei really doesn't go well, I will send someone to inform you, you can order the soldiers to pack their baggage in advance and retreat to Qiliutan first."

Xiahoudun nodded abruptly.

It seems that Cao Cao is also ambiguous about this battle, and he does not dare to guarantee that he can break the enemy in one fell swoop.

However, if there is a problem, Cao Cao will also retreat as soon as possible, trying to save his soldiers, and the middle-level generals know it in their hearts, and they have the right to arbitrarily decide on the spot, so they can be regarded as advancing or retreating.

It's just that if things really come to that point, Zhang Miao is afraid that he will be pitted by Cao Cao.

But living in this troubled world, there is no one who does not pit anyone!

It's all for the sake of preservation, and it's understandable.

Xiahoudun arched his hand at Cao Cao: "Ming Gong can rest assured!" ”

Xiahoudun is old, and Cao Cao is of course relieved.

He nodded, then stepped onto his peerless shadow, beckoned to all the soldiers, and turned towards the Tucheng built by Liu Bei before, as well as his two corner camps on the east and west sides of the Tucheng.

Cao Cao knew that there was a gap between the soldiers under his command and the combat strength of the Hebei army, and if he fought head-on, he would definitely be defeated in the long run.

Therefore, if he wants to defeat Liu Bei, Cao Cao can only succeed with the help of Zhang Miao's strange soldiers.

Cao Cao deliberately retreated a few days ago, set up a camp, and made the appearance of fighting a protracted battle, in order to naturally paralyze Liu Bei.

Regardless of whether Liu Bei let go of his guard or not, the other party's entire spirit at this time must be on his body, and he should be negligent about the situation in the east.

In this way, Zhang Miao, with the instigation and assistance of Lu Fan, will greatly increase the probability of attacking Liu Bei's camp in one fell swoop.

And when the time comes, you can take advantage of the situation and win all!

If things go wrong, you can retreat immediately without losing your troops, and you won't suffer much damage.

Cao Cao and Zhang Miao secretly exchanged messengers and agreed to attack Liu Bei at night today.

During the day, Cao Cao still ordered the soldiers to build an earthen city, pretending to be harmless to people and animals.

But in the evening, his troops showed their true colors.

However, compared to the time he agreed with Zhang Miao, Cao Cao was deliberately about a moment slower.

In order to allow Zhang Miao to enter Liu Bei's camp first.

……

……

"Ming Gong, look! It's on fire! ”

Dian Wei, who was supporting Cao Cao, excitedly raised an iron halberd and pointed hard in the direction of Liu Bei's camp.

Moreover, faintly, Cao Cao and the generals seemed to be able to hear the exclamations and shouts of killing coming from the camp not far away!

"Ming Gong, it seems that Zhang Miao has succeeded!" Dian Wei was anxious and eager to try: "Please also ask Ming Gong to give an order quickly, and lead the troops to cover up the killing!" ”

In order to ensure the success rate of the sneak attack and the safety of the withdrawal in case of failure, Cao Cao divided the troops into five groups, led and commanded by five Chinese generals, and sneaked to Liu Bei Dazhai from different directions.

However, whether it was attacking or retreating, all the troops had to obey his command and act in unison.

Only after Cao Cao gave the signal could the officers and soldiers of the three armies attack with confidence.

Or retreat according to Cao Cao's intentions.

Dian Wei and the Cao soldiers were in a hurry, but Cao Cao was not very calm, he just quietly observed the situation of the enemy camp not far away, listened attentively, and quickly analyzed in his heart......

Finally, Cao Cao's eyes narrowed, and he calmly ordered: "Send a signal, and all departments quickly retreat!" ”

"Huh?"

Dian Wei never thought that Cao Cao had observed for a long time, and he actually asked the big guy to withdraw!

This, doesn't this make it clear that the sneak attack was successful? Why withdraw!

But obviously, Cao Cao is not in the mood to explain to Dian Wei now.

Some small flaws made Cao Cao see the problem here.

The flame is too big!

The chaotic shouting was too loud......

Even if the Hebei Army was successfully attacked by Zhang Miaojun, it would be impossible to cause such a big mess in a short period of time!

There must be fraud in it.

If it is replaced by another commander, he may feel that Cao Cao is too cautious.

Too much suspicion! It's too detailed.

How do you fight a war like this?

This is indeed a weakness of Cao Cao, but it can also be regarded as one of his advantages.

After all, in a state where the enemy is strong and I am weak, it is better to be careful.

Immediately afterward, the signal of the retreat horn sounded in Siye.

The remaining four soldiers and horses, after receiving Cao Cao's message, although they were very puzzled, still complied with the prior agreement, immediately withdrew their troops and returned, leaving Zhang Miaojun alone in Liu Bei's camp.

……

At the same time, Liu Bei's front village had been harassed by Chen Liujun's army, and many tents and baggage were burned down by Liu Bei, in order to bring in Cao Cao's main generals.

But it's a pity that Liu Bei didn't wait for Cao Jun to appear.

Immediately afterwards, a horn sounded not far away, which was completely different from his own horn, and he thought it should be from Cao Jun.

Vaguely hearing the sound of the horn, Liu Bei couldn't help but be excited, he thought it was Cao Jun's marching signal!

But after the horn sounded, there was still no movement outside the camp, and I didn't see Cao's army coming to reinforce Zhang Miao.

Soon, Liu Bei reacted a little.

Cao Cao is going to throw Zhang Miao here to die!

"Hey! Cao Apu is really ruthless! Even Zhang Miao calculated! Bah! ”

Liu Bei, who was holding a double-strand sword, scolded fiercely, and then stopped pretending, and immediately ordered the inner camp to beat the drums, and ordered the soldiers of the three armies to come out together!

Gao Shun's trapped camp had long been a little unbearable, and the blades in their hands were really hungry and thirsty at the moment.

After hearing Liu Bei's attack signal, Gao Shun's soldiers and horses were the first to rush from the inner camp to the outer camp.

Chen Liu's generals were originally fighting in the camp, but when they saw that there was actually a Hebei army in the depths of the other party's inner camp, they were not surprised or happy!

To tell the truth, this Hebei soldier in the outer camp is not their opponent at all, and General Chen Liubing is worried that he can't find an opponent at the moment!

It's hard to win a sneak attack, and you can't kill them until you are cool?

Seeing these thousands of infantry rushing out of the inner camp, fully armed and imposing, I think it must be the elite troops of the Hebei Army.

If this army is destroyed, it will definitely be able to greatly suppress the prestige of the Hebei Army.

Zhang Miao's level in the military face was average, and when he saw that the other party was an infantryman, he immediately ordered several Sima under his command to lead the cavalry to charge!

In Zhang Miao's cognition, cavalry is born to be the nemesis of infantry, no matter what terrain or under what circumstances, those who ride horses can fight better than those who don't ride!

This is Zhang Miao's most basic understanding of the military.

But today, Gao Shun taught him a hard lesson and taught him how to be a man with infantry.

As soon as the cavalry of Chen Liu's cavalry rushed in front of the trapped camp, they saw the soldiers of the trapped camp forming a formation in formation, using the spears in their hands to pestle the ground, their movements were clean and neat, and they immediately stabbed the cavalry running in front of them.

And there are also trapped camp sergeants who use the shield array composed of large shields to overturn the war horses, and then run up and poke at the knights who have landed!

This is a big camp, you horsemen, should this be the plain? So arrogant!

The combat power and quality of the trapped camp are far beyond Zhang Miao's imagination!

It was the first time he had encountered such a fierce infantry team!

According to Gao Shun's training of these trapped soldiers, this army can really be called the first infantry in the world!

The cavalry and infantry of Chenliu County, plus their commander Zhang Miao, how long can they walk in front of the trapped camp?

If the trapped camp fights a protracted war with them, then it will simply be disbanded.

Liu Bei's attention is not on Zhang Miao's now.

Since it is not good for him to invite you into the urn, and Cao Cao will not come, then Liu Bei has made up his mind, he will chase and kill him tonight, and he has to give Cao Cao a little bit of power to see!

The world of the Han Dynasty is surnamed Liu, and Liu Jian is not the only one who is dominant!

He Liu Bei, it's also good!
