What is the sixth child?

Liu Bei was puzzled, he had never heard of this word, and he didn't know the true meaning of it.

Guo Jia's face did not change, and explained: "The sixth brother refers to a sneak attack, lying in ambush in the grass, and not preaching morality. ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw Liu Bei, Xun Yu, and Jia Xu all looking at him with strange expressions, as if to say: You are the eldest sixth.

In terms of conspiracy and intrigue, who can use you Guo Fengxiao as much?

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Guo Jia looked puzzled.

Jia Xu smiled and said, "Brother Fengxiao, why do you have the face to talk about General Xu?" ”

"Why not?"

"He learned from you!"

Jia Xu is right, among Liu Bei's strategists, Xu Rong admires Guo Jia the most, and highly admires this style of play to achieve victory at a small cost.

Although there are some adventures, they are small and big, and they can achieve great results.

Guo Jia suddenly said helplessly: "Guo and General Xu have never had anything to do with each other. ”

Jia Xu immediately retorted: "But he has been friends with you for a long time. ”

Guo Jia: "......"

At this moment, the general in charge of the scout came to report.

"Prime Minister, the enemy is challenged, General Zhao Yun has led the white-robed cavalry to fight with the enemy army in one place."

"Well, let's go down."

After Liu Bei waved off the generals, a trace of worry appeared on his face: "If Dong Zhuo really has a heavily armored cavalry, I am worried that Zilong will suffer." ”

Guo Jia said with a look of certainty: "Zilong knows the benefits of the heavily armored cavalry, and he will definitely avoid its edge." ”

They had used the Heavy Armor Iron Cavalry countless times, and I believed that Zhao Yun already understood the strength of this Heavy Armor Legion, and would not choose to fight hard.

With the mobility of the light cavalry, as long as there is a desire to retreat, the heavy cavalry will not be able to catch up.

Liu Bei thought of Zhao Yun's calmness, and couldn't help but nodded: "Well, Zilong shouldn't be rash." ”

……

Zhao Yunzheng led his troops to engage Guo Yan, and suddenly found that the enemy army began to retreat, and he couldn't help but be confused.

"Zilong, do you want to chase?" Brother Zhao Feng came to his side.

Zhao Yun shook his head and said, "There is something strange, let's wait and see what happens." ”

The Xiliang army took the initiative to provoke, but suddenly retreated before the victory was decided, which is unreasonable no matter how you look at it.

A moment later, there was a sudden violent tremor under his feet, like a large force of cavalry charging.

As far as the eye could see, a well-armored cavalry came into view, which seemed to be small in number, but it brought a strong impact.

Heavy armor iron horseman.

Zhao Yun vaguely saw the armor of the enemy cavalry, and although it was very different from the Iron Floating Tu, he still made a quick judgment.

"Withdraw!"

He had fought side by side with Zhang Fei many times, so he naturally knew how powerful Tiefutu was. No matter how brave the white-robed army is, it is impossible to go head-to-head with the heavily armored enemy army.

Although Zhao Feng was puzzled, he still obeyed the order.

On the other side, Li Dao was leading the Flying Bear Army in heavy armor to charge, and found that the enemy army began to retreat, and he couldn't help but feel a little happy in his heart.

At the beginning, Liu Bei defeated them with heavy armor and iron horses, and today he will have to return a tooth for a tooth, and he will be ashamed.

Li Wei knew that he couldn't catch up with Zhao Yun's light cavalry, so he didn't chase deeply, but rushed straight towards Liu Bei's military formation.

The strong defensive line of the Bingzhou Army was weak in front of the heavily armored army, and it was easily torn open and then scattered by the iron cavalry behind the Flying Bear Army.

In less than half an hour, the Flying Bear Army broke through three lines of defense in a row and approached the Chinese army.

At this moment, they encountered Gao Shun's trapping camp.

The formation of the entire trapped camp was like an open door, making way for the Flying Bear Army, but this unexpected smooth operation sounded the alarm bell for Li Dao.

Soon, he noticed something unusual.

Hook and sickle spears stretched out from behind the shield array, and then pulled back heavily, like a scythe for harvesting grain, easily cutting off the horse's legs.

The heavily armored iron riders were all armored, but the horse's legs were still fragile, and there was almost no protection. Of course, it is impossible to put armor on the horse's legs, otherwise the horse may not be able to run.

The condensed heavy armored iron cavalry should have been like a moving fortress, invulnerable, but it was vulnerable to the attack on the horse's legs.

After the knight planted himself from his horse, he was trampled to death by the cavalry in the rear before he could dodge.

Although Li Wei escaped the attack of the hook and sickle spear with his martial arts and equestrian skills, the soldiers under his command did not have this ability, and there were countless casualties in a short period of time.

"Stop, stop!"

He hurriedly ordered the charge to be halted, lest the expensive cavalry be buried.

At this moment, the shield arrays on both sides suddenly opened, and countless heavily armored soldiers in the camp either held broadswords or sledgehammers, and swarmed towards the Flying Bear Army.

These men are either burly or agile, with swordsmen chopping off horses' legs and sledgehammers that can knock heavily armored Flying Bear soldiers off their horses with a single blow.

Coupled with the hook and sickle spear that poked out from time to time, the Flying Bear Army was distressed.

In the face of such targeted tactics, they could not take any advantage, and they no longer had the momentum that had just broken through.

……

"Lord, you're in too much of a hurry!"

Li Ru was extremely disappointed in his heart, Dong Zhuo wanted revenge too much, and was eager to show the killer feature. If Liu Bei really had a follow-up move, the heavy armored cavalry they had finally assembled would probably be wiped out.

Dong Zhuo didn't think so, because just now, the front line sent back good news one after another, and Li Dao and Guo Yan had approached Liu Bei's army.

Zhang Ji and Niu Fu were not idle, and led the cavalry to charge from the left and right flanks respectively. Coupled with the cooperation of Ma Teng and Han Sui in the rear, Liu Bei should have been in chaos at this time.

Li Ru saw that he was full of confidence, so he didn't say more, but the worry in his heart did not diminish at all. With his understanding of Liu Bei, the state army was by no means so easy to defeat.

Unconsciously, a few hours passed, and there was no good news during the period, and Dong Zhuo began to feel a little uneasy in his heart.

Could it be that Liu Bei is really prepared?

"Report ...... General Zhang Ji was repulsed by the enemy. ”

"Report ...... General Niu Fu was repulsed by the enemy. ”

…… The situation changed abruptly, and the report of defeat that came back made Dong Zhuo shocked and angry.

"Where's Li Dao?"

"My lord, General Li Dao's headquarters has lost contact!"

One blow of strength, then decline, three and exhaustion.

When the offensive of the Flying Bear Army was contained, Zhang Ji and Niu Fu on the flanks were also blocked.

When the remnant sun on the edge of the sky dissipated, the Flying Bear Army led by Li Dao had almost been wiped out, and he himself was beheaded by Zhang Fei.

Subsequently, the state army launched a comprehensive counterattack and won a complete victory, Dong Zhuo suffered more than half of the casualties and had to retreat for thirty miles.

……

"Yide beheaded the enemy's general Li Dao, stopped the enemy's offensive, and recorded a great achievement."

"Han Sheng slashed Yan Xing, broke the enemy all the way, and made a great achievement."

…… Late at night, in the big tent of the Chinese army, Liu Bei was discussing the reward for meritorious deeds.

The battle was a complete victory, and many people made great achievements, Huang Zhong and Zhang Fei captured the flag, and Xu Rong set up an ambush to defeat three times the enemy.

Zhang Fei laughed and said: "Haha, Dong Zhuo doesn't know anyone, do you think everyone knows how to lead soldiers?" If it weren't for Dong Zhuo's old horseman running fast, I would have to cut him! ”

These words seem to be mocking Li Dao's rash advance, but in fact, he is also boasting, announcing to everyone that he is powerful Zhang Yide and Tiefutu.

The generals couldn't hear the other words, and they ignored some speechlessness: I have never seen such a brazen person.

Zhao Yun cooperated and said: "If Yide leads the troops today, I am afraid that I will not be able to protect the camp." ”

Zhang Fei was humble again: "Where, where, Brother Zilong has said." Because Gao Shun is his own person, and the camp is indeed an elite division, Zhang Fei did not open his mouth to belittle.

If it's someone else, huh!

Liu Bei didn't pay attention to the narcissistic General Zhang San, and turned his head to look at Guo Jia: "Fengxiao, the separation plan has been arranged." ”

Guo Jia smiled slightly: "The lord is waiting to see a good show." ”

"I'll see."

……

"Bastard, Li Dao has buried our Flying Bear Army in vain!"

Compared with the happy scene in Liu Bei's military camp, Dong Zhuojun looked gloomy.

He couldn't figure out how his five-way army could come to such an end?

is also a heavy cavalry, why is it that people are so powerful, and he is vulnerable when it is his turn?

Everyone was silent, and they didn't dare to touch Dong Zhuo's anger at this time, so as not to be affected by the pond fish.

Li Ru sighed: "Liu Bei already has a method for the heavy armor iron horse, as soon as they come out, Liu Bei will immediately target the layout." ”

If Ma Teng and Han Sui can succeed, they may still have a chance to win.

However, the two had to not disrupt Liu Bei's formation, but were killed and killed.

"What's going on with Ma Teng and Han Sui?" Dong Zhuo quickly thought of the point, Liu Bei was able to easily block their offensive and launch a counterattack, a large part of the reason was that his rear was as stable as Mount Tai, and there was no sign of no attack at all.

So, Ma Teng and Han Sui are not able to set up?

Hearing this, Guo Yan stepped forward and arched his hand: "According to the defeated soldiers of Ma Teng and Han Sui, Ma Teng fell into Liu Bei's ambush halfway, Han Sui was defeated by Liu Bei's general Huang Zhong, and the vanguard Yan Xing was beheaded and retreated. ”

Dong Zhuo sneered: "The two of them are secretive, how could Liu Bei set up an ambush in advance?" ”

"Besides, Liu Bei's main force is fighting with our army, where are the soldiers and horses to repel Han Sui, is it possible that his soldiers are all muddy?"

"It was Jinyiwei who had insight into Ma Tengjun's traces in advance." Li Ru answered this question for Guo Yan.

"Could it be that this brocade guard is omnipotent?"

Dong Zhuo didn't believe it, after all, Ma Teng and Han Sui had always lived in Xiliang, how could Liu Bei set up secret agents under their command, could it be that Liu Bei could predict the prophet and calculate that Ma Teng would be his enemy?

He preferred that this was the result of Ma Tenghan's reluctance to contribute, because the grain and grass he promised were not given to the two as promised.

Everyone was speechless, the existence of Jinyiwei was really weird, and they only knew half of it.

"My lord, no matter what, you can't turn your eyes against the two at this time."

In fact, Li Ru also felt that Ma Teng and Han Sui were defeated a little strangely, judging from the results of today's battle, Liu Bei's main force was almost all on the front, where did he have the spare strength to defeat the two?

Dong Zhuo's face was gloomy, but he didn't say anything more after all.

"What's next?"

Today, he only suffered more than half of his own casualties, his morale was low, and he was no longer able to fight Liu Bei head-on.

Li Ru thought for a while and said: "I suggest retreating to Chang'an, and then let Ma Teng Han build a fortress outside the city to form a rivalry with our army." ”

Dong Zhuo frowned slightly: "If Liu Bei is besieging the city, won't our army have to sit back and wait to die?" ”

Sticking to Chang'an is the last resort, but Dong Zhuo is unwilling to implement it, because this is tantamount to giving up the initiative. Liu Bei could completely encircle Chang'an and then encroach on other counties one after another.

In this way, he will fall into a situation of isolation and helplessness, and in the end, Liu Bei will not even need to attack the city, so that he will be cut off from food and grass, and he will collapse without a fight.

"My lord, this is the only way at the moment, after retreating to Chang'an, the lord can send people to ask for help from other princes, I believe they will not be willing to sit back and watch Liu Bei sit big."

This is the only way Li Ru can think of at the moment, and continuing to fight Liu Bei will only lose more completely.

Dong Zhuo was silent for a long time.

"That's it, just follow your policy, step down."

The crowd retreated one after another.

But there was one person who didn't leave for a long time, this person's name was Li Su, and he was a fellow villager with Lu Bu.

Dong Zhuo looked at him with a gloomy face: "Do you still have something to say?" ”

"There will be something to tell the lord at the end."

"Say!"

Li Su pretended to ponder for a moment, and said in a low voice: "The military advisor is afraid that he will secretly communicate with Liu Bei and want to murder the lord." ”

Bang!

Dong Zhuo got up after hearing the case, and said angrily: "Bastard, you dare to frame the military division!" ”

"What the last general said is true, if the lord does not believe it, he can be beheaded in the next item."

Dong Zhuo was silent for a moment, and said coldly: "If you have half a false word, I will kill it." ”

"Has the lord ever thought that Liu Bei and Ma Teng don't know each other, how can they arrange secret agents in his army?"

"No matter how pervasive Jinyiwei is, he will never run to Xiliang. Besides, today's battle is a top-secret matter, even if there are Jinyi Wei secret agents in Ma Teng's army, how can they have time to pass on the news? ”

"What do you mean by that?"

Although Dong Zhuo was asking, he was already suspicious in his heart.

As Li Su said, the arrangement of today's battle was set by him and Li Ru alone, and then sent someone to contact Ma Teng Han Sui directly.

Don't...... Li Ru leaked secrets?

As soon as the idea came out, it spread uncontrollably.

Because this kind of thing is not without precedent......

Li Su seemed to have guessed Dong Zhuo's thoughts, and continued: "Does the lord still remember Xu Rong's defection? ”

"Yes."

"Xu Rong's defection was instigated by Jia Xu, and this Jia Xu was recommended by the military advisor. The military advisor was friendly with Jia Xu, and he had frequent contacts with him at the beginning, but now our army has suffered defeat...... The lord must not ignore it. ”

Li Su's meaning was already obvious, and Li Ru was likely to follow his friend's example and find another way out, or even offer a letter of surrender.

"It's just your guess!" Although Dong Zhuo was suspicious, he would not conclude that Li Ru had betrayed because of this few words.

"The last general naturally didn't dare to talk nonsense, the reason why he doubted the military advisor was because he had discovered something."

"Say."

"Han Sui has actually been secretly correspondingly with the military advisor."

After Li Su finished speaking, he escaped from his arms a mutilated letter, which was only a corner, and there were still scorched black marks in the gap, as if most of it had been burned by someone.

Dong Zhuo walked to Li Su's side, stretched out his hand to take the mutilated letter, and left a sentence on it intermittently.

“…… It's done...... Changan...... Drunk ......"

At the end of the letter, Han Sui's signature was still retained.

Dong Zhuo came to the case with the remnant letter, and compared with the letter sent by Han Sui before, the handwriting was almost identical.

"Okay, you all want to betray us!"
