Seeing that Xi Zhicai and Xun Yu were so determined and firm, Cao Cao's heart settled down. Since, the partial division outside the Tiger Prison Pass...... There won't be any slip-ups; Then, the main force of the Cao army in the direction of Yingchuan County can show its strength.

"As you see ......"

Cao Cao looked around at everyone, and then asked in a deep voice, "When should our army ...... Liangzhou Army ...... to Yuyuan Pass Launching a raid? ”

"My lord! Now...... Our army divided its troops into three routes and attacked the three passes of Yique Pass, Dagu Pass, and Luhun Pass of the Liangzhou Army. Although our army suffered heavy casualties, it must have ...... The Liangzhou army also suffered serious losses! ”

As soon as Cao Cao's words fell, Xi Zhicai had already made a decision in his heart, and immediately, he was confident, and said aloud with a determined face: "Since you ...... The Liangzhou army transferred the first-line soldiers and horses of Yuyuan Pass to the three passes of Yique Pass, Dagu Pass, and Luhun Pass; At this time...... Above the Yuyuan Pass, it must be to guard against emptiness! Lord! In order to prevent the Liangzhou army from being aware, Zhicai thought that it was ...... Without further ado, our army should be ...... tonight Raid the Liangzhou army in Yuyuan Pass! ”

Cao Cao thought about it for a while, and although he agreed with Xi Zhicai's suggestion, he was still a little hesitant. Immediately, Cao Cao moved his gaze to Xun You's direction and asked, "Gongda...... Worried? ”

"My lord! What Zhicai said is very true! This time...... The raid on the four passes of the Liangzhou Army, Yique, Dagu, and Luhun Pass, is conducive to a quick battle, and it must not be postponed for a long time! If the Yuyuan Pass cannot be captured as soon as possible, the army will be delayed in the south of the four major passes, and then it will ...... The Liangzhou army will inevitably have a countermeasure. ”

Xun You already had an idea in his heart, and this will, seeing that his father-in-law asked, he immediately said with a firm face: "At that time...... The front line of the Tiger Prison Pass, as well as the Liangzhou Army in Nanyang County, will also discover the strategic intentions of our army. After the Liangzhou army knew the intentions of our army, it must be clear...... The defenders of our army outside the Tiger Prison Pass are only partial divisions! At that time...... The Liangzhou Army on the front line of the Tiger Pass is ...... Send troops to attack our army's partial division outside the Tiger Prison Pass, or ...... Going south out of the revolving gate, a surprise attack on the retreat of our army, our army will fall into ...... A dilemma. ”

When Xun You said the back, the look on his face slowly faded, followed by a solemn and solemn face.

I saw it...... With all the looks on Xun You's face, Cao Cao's heart was also a little dignified. For now...... The Yanzhou army not only wanted to make a surprise attack on Yuyuan Pass as soon as possible, but also strive to take Yuyuan Pass; Otherwise...... The worries that Xun You spoke of will become a reality in the near future. If...... To be able to take the Yuyuan Pass, before, all the losses of the Yanzhou army were worth it!

Regarding the suggestions of Xi Zhicai and Xun You, Yu Ban, Li Dian, Xu Chu, and Cao Chun can also understand the urgency. Xun You's voice landed, and the four of them thought about it for a while, and nodded thoughtfully.

"The generals will obey!"

Cao Cao's heart was settled, and immediately, he stood up, looked at everyone with a solemn face, and said loudly: "Tonight...... When it was ugly, it was time to divide the meal, and when it was time, it sent troops, raised an army of 30,000, and rushed to attack the Liangzhou Army! If we don't break the barrier, our army will not quit! I hope you ...... Give it all you’ve got. Win this ...... A vital battle! ”

"We will obey the orders of the Lord Army! Swear to take the pass! ”

Xun You, Xi Zhicai, Yu Ban, Li Dian, Xu Chu, and Cao Chun immediately stood up, clasped their fists, gave a salute, and said solemnly with a solemn face.

"If our army can win this battle...... When you are promoted to the third level of knighthood, the reward of the soldiers of the whole army will naturally not be left behind! ”

"After the deliberations are over, the military order of Ben Hou will be handed down, and this surprise attack will be on Yuyuan Pass...... Those who climb the city tower first will be rewarded with a hundred catties and sealed thousands of households; Those who kill the enemy's generals will be rewarded with a reward of 100 catties and sealed a hundred households; Capture the enemy general, a bounty of 100 catties! ”

Cao Cao looked around at everyone again, and then said in a solemn voice. What is so...... Under the heavy reward, there will be brave men! Cao Cao also took great pains in order to capture the Yuyuan Pass and to inspire the morale and fighting spirit of the soldiers of the whole army.

"I'll wait...... May the Lord ...... Kill me! ”

Hearing the rich reward of their own lord, everyone was overjoyed, and immediately replied in unison with joyful faces.

Cao Cao saw the looks on everyone's faces, and heard everyone's assurances, and his grasp of the capture of Yuyuan Pass also increased a little more. Then...... Cao Cao said loudly with a smile on his face: "Everyone...... Let's go down and prepare! ”

Everyone gave the order, quit the account, and went to prepare for the relevant matters of sending troops.

……

That night, at about three o'clock in the morning, under the cover of the unclear moonlight, a mighty army was on the way south for a surprise attack.

At this moment, in addition to the "rustling" of the wind, the rest of the sound is the uniform sound of horses' hooves and footsteps. Fortunately...... Because...... The hooves of the war horses are wrapped in thick linen, which is the ...... When the army marched, although there was a sound, it was not too obvious.

"Brave...... Where has the army gone? ”

In the dark night, a deep and powerful voice sounded, breaking the solemn atmosphere at the moment. This person is exactly ...... General Che Cai, Liangzhou Mu, Ningcheng Hou Li Mu.

"My lord! Not far ahead...... It should be Yangcheng Mountain! ”

Fu Yan straightened up, looked ahead, and faintly saw ...... There seems to be a mountain in front of us. Fu Yan reacted, and immediately said in a low voice.

"Yangcheng Mountain ......"

Li Mu first muttered to himself, and then said in a low voice with a smile on his face: "After crossing Yangcheng Mountain, and then more than twenty miles to the south, you can reach Yangcheng City." This time, if you can surprise attack Yangcheng, the retreat of Cao's army in Yingchuan County will be cut off by our army. ”

Indeed, this time, Li Mu, Dian Wei, Li Hui, Fu Yan, Zhao Feng, and Gao Xiang led more than 28,000 troops to the south of Xuanmen Pass, just to raid Yangcheng, a strategic place in the north of Yingchuan County.

This time to the south, Li Mu and Fu Yan, Shuai led the Suzaku Cavalry, as the vanguard of the army; Zhao Feng and Gao Xiang led the Long Xiang cavalry as the rear team of the army; Dian Wei and Li Hui led 8,000 infantry as the Chinese army.

Li Mu raised his head, looked at the night sky, and then said in a deep voice: "Order the whole army to go south quickly, and arrive at the front line of Yangcheng at the right time." ”

Fu Yan didn't dare to slack off, and immediately turned his horse's head and rushed towards the army behind him.

Hearing the military orders of their lords, the soldiers of the Liangzhou army naturally did not dare to hesitate, and immediately accelerated the speed of the march.

Sure enough, living up to Li Mu's expectations, just after the end of the hour, the 28,000 people of the Liangzhou army quietly came to ten miles north of Yangcheng.
