Chapter 357: A Detour
The heavy rain for several days made everyone in Cao Ying not in a very good mood.
The road ahead was washed by the rain, and now it is muddy, and it can't be passed, Cao Cao has sent people to try to attack several times, but he was quickly beaten back by the Wuhuan on the opposite side, and there is no way at all at present, only to look ahead blankly.
Dressed in robes or carrying umbrellas, they came to the front of the army together and looked at the rain curtain in front of them.
Although the rain is not very big now, the impact is still there, the road leading to the Wuhuan military camp is a depression, and the edge of the depression is a mountain forest, but you can only attack in the depression, but now this situation is not easy to fight!
"It rained for days and the roads were muddy."
"Not only can we not move forward, but it is also difficult to send the follow-up grain and grass."
"We are not short of food now, but it is difficult to say after a long time, I don't know when this heavy rain will fall, and our grain and grass will not be able to keep up sooner or later."
Chen Qun said worriedly.
These words also expressed the concerns and worries of other people, frowning and looking ahead, everything was going well, but who would have thought that he would finally encounter the first twist and turn here, and now he has to retreat, and he is very unwilling.
But if you don't retreat, staying here is easy to be almost consumed, and in the end there is nothing, Wuhuan took the opportunity to fight, and they were the ones who were defeated.
"We shouldn't be in pursuit!"
Cao Hong was the first to oppose and hunt down the Yuan brothers.
Now I can't go up or down, I am in a dilemma, no matter whether I advance or retreat, it is not ideal, and the retreat is even more wasted.
"Wataruyuki, what should I do?"
Cao Cao could only set his eyes on Chen Zhou.
Everyone else also looked at Chen Zhou at this time.
At that time, it was discussed whether to pursue or not, but Chen Zhou and Guo Jia firmly believed that they could pursue and agreed with the pursuit, thinking that Chen Zhou might have a way.
Facts have proved that they were right, Chen Zhou did have a way, and asked: "Yuan Shao's subordinates, there is a person named Tian Chou, who has surrendered to us, the lord can find him, and this person has a way to lead us to attack Wuhuan." ”
"Yuan Shao's subordinates?"
Cao Cao hesitated when he heard this, Yuan Shao's people, would they pit themselves for the sake of Wu Huan?
However, since it was the person recommended by Chen Zhou, he thought that this Tian Chou could be used, and he could not trust Tian Chou, but he could trust Chen Zhou, so it was enough, and shouted: "Come on, among the people who surrendered to Yuan Shao, find out this person called Tian Chou!" ”
The pro-soldiers around him, who received the order, did not care about the rain, rushed into the rain curtain, went back to the camp, and arranged to find someone.
"Let's go back and take shelter from the rain."
Cao Cao wiped a handful, through the hat, the rain that wet his cheeks, and led everyone back to the main tent, and then waited slowly.
Suddenly I want to find one, Yuan Shao's subordinates who surrendered, among so many people, it is not easy to find it in a moment, if people follow the army, they can still find it, and after waiting for about half an hour, the sky outside is gradually overcast, and the soldiers took a middle-aged man into the main tent.
"Tian Chou, meet the lord!"
Tian Chou came to Cao Cao and bowed deeply.
Cao Cao asked, "Do you have a plan to break the black Huan?" ”
Since it was the person recommended by Chen Zhou, Cao Cao felt that Tian Chou must have a way.
Tian Chou: "......"
They worked so hard to find themselves out, just to break the black circle?
There are so many strategists in the main account, they can't help it, Tian Chou thinks, what can I do?
"My lord, that's not what you asked."
Chen Zhou shook his head and asked: "It's muddy everywhere outside, people and horses can't pass, I heard that you are a native of Youzhou, and you are very familiar with the neighborhood, is there a way to bypass the passage in front of you and raid to the rear of Wuhuan?" ”
As soon as these words came out, Cao Cao and the others also understood that Chen Zhou's plan was originally to raid the rear of Wuhuan, but they were all outsiders and were not familiar with the situation in Youzhou, and finding a local from Youzhou to lead the way might bring a miracle.
As long as they can come to the rear of Wu Huan, there are many things they can do, and they can kill Wu Huan by surprise.
Tian Chou thought for a while, and immediately said: "Back to the lord, my subordinates do know an old road, the route is out of Lulongsai, over Xu Wushan, to the upper valley of the Luanhe River, through the valley you can go to Liaodong, bypass the muddy road in front of you, and raid the rear of the Wuhuan people. ”
Is there really such a path?
The crowd was surprised.
"Really?"
Cao Cao immediately asked.
"It's all true, the subordinates don't dare to lie to the lord, the subordinates are willing to take the lord and take this old road, even if it rains, you can pass."
Tian Chou said with certainty.
Cao Cao hesitated, and then asked, "Duzhi, what do you think?" ”
Of course, Chen Zhou felt that there was no problem, and nodded: "It's feasible, but I have another suggestion." ”
"What advice?"
"The striker of this battle, as well as the command, are all in charge of Zhang Wenyuan."
Chen Zhou looked at Zhang Liao, who was standing not far away and was listening to the discussion, and said, "General Zhang Wenyuan, like me, insists that he can attack, and with General Zhang's ability, it is enough to sweep the entire Wuhuan, please agree." ”
Zhang Liao raised his eyebrows, and when he heard Chen Zhou suddenly mention that he wanted to hand over the command to himself, he still couldn't believe it, he had surrendered for so long, and he didn't seem to have tried to get such a high military power.
If you can destroy Wuhuan and raid the rear of Wuhuan, it will still be a great achievement.
Why did you give me this credit, sir?
Zhang Liao was thinking puzzled.
"Wenyuan, what do you think?"
Cao Cao also looked at Zhang Liao.
The others also looked at Zhang Liao, as if they didn't quite understand why Chen Zhou recommended Zhang Liao, but after Chen Zhou's recommendation, they all understood that Cao Cao would definitely agree.
Because this battle is a battle for Zhang Liao to shine, to be able to enter the Wu Temple, in addition to defeating Sun 100,000, the battle of Wuhuan White Wolf Mountain is also one of the achievements of entering the Wu Temple.
Zhang Liao came back to his senses, immediately stepped forward, and said excitedly: "Of course there is no problem with the subordinates, if the lord can give his subordinates a large army, he can definitely kill the Wuhuan piece of armor and bring back the head of Badun." ”
He is also confident in fighting Wuhuan, confident that he can fight.
Otherwise, he would not have proposed to pursue to the end, because he was confident, he wanted to pursue, and he also wanted to make a great contribution to himself through Wu Huan.
Cao Cao said loudly: "Okay! Since Du Zhi recommended Wen Yuan, then I will reuse Wen Yuan, the scheduling arrangements for this battle are all responsible for Wen Yuan, if you don't understand, feel free to ask me, or ask Du Zhi, how? ”
This is his personality charm, just because of Chen Zhou's words, he reused Zhang Liao, a general, and handed over higher military power.
It can not only show his trust in Chen Zhou, but also show his trust in Zhang Liao, as well as his attention, so that Zhang Liao can be grateful to himself in the future, and work harder to calm the world for him and unify the rivers and mountains.
"Thank you, my lord!"
Zhang Liao's voice increased by several decibels, and he said in a loud voice: "My subordinates will definitely not disappoint the lord!" ”
can finally make real contributions, and his blood is boiling.
