Chapter 288: Before the Action
"So, who's going to burn it?"
Cao Cao asked another question.
"Lord, my subordinates are willing to go!"
Gao Shun was the first to get up and took the initiative to ask: "It's enough for his subordinates to bring the trapping camp into the black nest, Yuan Shao found that the black nest was on fire, and he must panic to put out the fire, and the main force of the lord will be used to attack the chaotic Yuan army camp, and this battle will be won!" ”
It sounds like this, Gao Shun's idea is good.
Guo Jia and the others thought for a moment, and they all thought that Gao Shun's suggestion was reasonable, and the troops were divided into two ways, trapping the camp and burning the black nest, and they concentrated the main force to raid Yuan Shao, who went to fight the fire.
Chen Zhou said unhurriedly: "Peping's plan, under the premise that Yuan Shao goes to fight the fire, is indeed no problem, but what if Yuan Shao is unwilling to save the fire of the black nest?" ”
Gao Shun shook his head and said, "How is it possible that Yuan Shao can't fight fires?" ”
His own grain and grass were burned, but he didn't put out the fire, Yuan Shao would not be so incompetent.
"Du Zhi wants to say that Yuan Shao will not only not let the main force fight the fire, but will also bring the main force to attack our camp?"
Chen Qun understood what Chen Zhou meant.
Chen Zhou nodded and said: "In front of Yuan Shao, we have always shown weakness, so that Yuan Shao, and even those ministers and ministers in Xu Du, do not know very well how many troops we have. Yuan Shao thinks that we have few soldiers, to burn the black nest, we must send part of the main force to attack to burn, when we see the black nest on fire, regardless of it, it is not impossible to attack the camp. ”
Hearing this, they quieted down.
Gao Shun thought about it for a while, and didn't say anything more, agreeing with the possibility of Chen Zhou's hypothesis.
"According to what I know about Yuan Benchu, it is indeed possible for him to be like this."
Cao Cao is still very clear about Yuan Shao's character.
With Yuan Shao's arrogance and great joy, he was a little panicked when he saw that Wuchao was burned, but the grain and grass of Wuchao were used to destroy Cao, since the grain and grass were burned, it was better to destroy Cao directly, and when some of the main forces of the Cao army attacked Wuchao, there were not enough soldiers in the army, so they pushed the Guandu Cao camp.
Directly destroy Cao Cao, and the grain of Wuchao will be burned if it is burned, it doesn't matter.
"What do you think about it?"
Cao Cao immediately asked again.
Chen Zhou analyzed: "I guess Yuan Shao will do two things, the first point is to send some people to Wuchao to fight the fire, but there will not be many people in this part, and they are not the main force of Yuan's army, and the second point is to attack the camp in an all-round way, and they want to push us sideways." ”
"The first point is that it's easy to deal with."
"Yuan Shao came to put out the fire, just let him save it, the general fire is burning, and it is difficult to extinguish."
"But the premise that the fire on the Wuchao can be carried out is that the trapped camp of about 1,000 people in Peping can break through the protection of the Wuchao guarding the grain Yuan army?"
Chen Zhou looked at Gao Shun as he spoke.
In fact, it is very easy to do.
The general guarding the Wuchao is Chun Yuqiong, this thing is also a drunkard, he doesn't have to go to the battlefield in the Wuchao, and he doesn't need to be on guard, he usually drinks and often gets drunk.
Those soldiers have no generals to command, they have no backbone, and it is easy to get into the camp and kill them.
"Absolutely!"
Gao Shun patted his heart and promised: "The soldiers in my camp are all one as ten, the lord should have seen it when he was outside Xiapi City, it is no problem to kill it and set it on fire, I am willing to make a military order." ”
"Good!"
Cao Cao did not hesitate, and he could see that Chen Zhou intended to let Gao Shun fight, and deliberately provoked Gao Shun so much, so he said: "Peping, the military order will be exempted, pay attention to safety, it's really not good, don't force it." ”
Gao Shunzuo said: "Subordinates receive orders!" ”
Guo Jia got up and said: "I may have guessed the way to deal with the second point. ”
Chen Zhou smiled: "Feng Xiao, please speak!" ”
"Ambush!"
Guo Jia said slowly: "If Yuan Shao really doesn't plan to fight the fire with all his might, but to attack the camp, our main force is ambushed, and we can defeat the main force of the Yuan army, if we don't attack the camp, our ambush soldiers can immediately turn into soldiers attacking the camp and fight towards Yuan Shao's military camp, how about it?" ”
Chen Zhou nodded and said, "Feng Xiao and I want to go together, but it's just ......"
At this point, he paused again.
Guo Jia asked, "Does Duzhi have anything else to add?" ”
Chen Zhou shook his head and said: "There is no addition, I just want to say that after the battle tonight, the lord may accept two more, generals from Yuan Shao." ”
Cao Cao laughed when he heard this, and asked, "Is there anyone around Yuan Shao who is willing to surrender?" ”
Chen Zhou didn't explain whether there was any, but said: "If Yuan Shao is defeated, everything is possible, and the lord can wait for this good news." ”
Indeed, anything is possible.
Cao Cao listened to it and was about to arrange it like this.
Someone from outside came in again.
It was Xia Houjie who came, and said, "Uncle, we have received the news from Mr. Wenhe from Hebei. ”
Hearing that Jia Xu had news, Cao Cao immediately opened it and laughed: "Wenhe has succeeded, and successfully persuaded Zhang Yan to join us, and at this time he has already lurked near Liyang, waiting for us to arrange." ”
Chen Qun said: "Then it's just right, you can cut off Yuan Shao's retreat!" ”
Cao Cao officially ordered: "Peping, you lead the warriors trapped in the camp to attack the Wuchao and burn the Wuchao, and the other soldiers listen to the order and follow me to meet Yuan Shao, and at the same time pass the order to Wenhe, and take the opportunity to do ......it in Liyang."
The order was soon handed down.
Just follow the plan we just discussed.
In history, Cao Cao personally led the team to attack the black nest, which could boost the morale of the army.
Now Cao Cao, there is no need to do this.
Cao Ying has no one to panic, and there will be no shortage of food, now the army is neat, morale is great, Cao Cao can sit in the camp, command and dispatch tonight's counterattack, if done well, can knock out Yuan Shao's advantages.
Seeing that Gao Shun was about to act, Chen Zhou took Gao Shun to the rear army.
"What do you have to tell you that you have brought me here?"
Gao Shun asked puzzled.
He was also in a hurry to attack the Black Nest and make a quick decision, which brought a little shock to Yuan Shao.
Chen Zhou said: "I'm going to give you a good thing." ”
As he spoke, he looked at Wang Yuan and asked, "Are you all done?" ”
"Sir, it's not okay, we only have more than three hundred bottles ready."
Wang Yuan came over and said.
Chen Zhou said: "More than three hundred is enough, take one over." ”
He wanted to show Gao Shun how to use it, stuffed the cloth strip at the mouth of the bottle, waited until the alcohol soaked the cloth strip, lit the cloth strip, and suddenly ignited the flame.
"General Gao, look at it, someone is ready to splash water."
Chen Zhou burned that. bottle, throw it to the ground next to it.
As the bottle exploded, the alcohol spread, creating a small sea of fire.
Some soldiers took a basin of water and splashed it to extinguish the fire, but it was useless to the alcohol, and the water splashed over spread the range of the alcohol, and the burning range was even greater.
"This ......"
Gao Shun understood what Chen Zhou was going to do.
This kind of fire can't even be extinguished by water.
If it is used to burn the black nest, this must not burn the black nest, and it will not be burned to the point that there is not even slag, and it will be used for tonight's action.
Mr.'s methods are really superb, and they are wonderful!
When they saw this, they were also shocked, and almost shouted that this was not a ghost fire, and even water could not be extinguished, far beyond their cognition.
