Chapter 932: The Golden Cicada Sheds Its Shell
The family Haoqiang and Li Min Qianshou are two classes, two societies with clear distinctions, and there is a difference between them.
The essence of the princes in troubled times is the same as that of the powerful family, and it is the spokesperson of more powerful families.
Li Min Qian's appearance in the eyes of the family's heroes is the same as Li Min Qian's head looks at livestock, which is no different.
Livestock can be driven by Li Min Qianshou, and Li Min Qianshou will naturally be driven by the powerful families and princes.
In order to escape, Cao Cao, Chen Gong, and Cheng Yu can use Li Minqian as a shield without any hesitation, and treat them as cannon fodder.
Although Liu Bei is a prince, he is different, in his thoughts, he always has "benevolence", and has the idea of seeing the people as the foundation of people's hope.
Therefore, Liu Bei can enjoy the prosperity created by the people with peace of mind; But he won't let the people be his scapegoats.
Liu Bei's loud and sonorous rebuke made the civil and military forces of the Cao Liu coalition army in the hall ... I was very ashamed in my heart.
The hall was originally a flame of joy that was about to rise, but it was extinguished by Liu Bei's words.
Chen Gong's strategy, although vicious and ruthless, is also an extremely subtle retreat strategy, which is worth using. ’
Cao Cao and Cheng Yu thought so.
The generals of the Cao Liu coalition army thought so.
Xun You thought about it, but he didn't come out!
In the hall, there was a silence, and everyone had different expressions and thoughts.
Cao Cao, Xun You, and Chen Gong looked at Cheng Yu at the same time, and the meaning in their eyes was the same.
"My lord!
The common people are cowardly by nature, even if they pretend to be soldiers, they dare not meet the Liangzhou saber soldiers, and will only surrender on their knees.
Even if the people wear armor, they will not have the momentum of normal soldiers, and the Liangzhou army will naturally see it, and Li Mu knows this even more. ”
Cheng Yu, who knew in his heart, organized his language and said comfortingly: "Li Mu prides himself on being a benevolent and virtuous person, and he is a flagpole that advertises kindness to the people......
He and the Liangzhou army will definitely not harm the people, and they will definitely surrender those people who pretend to be soldiers.
The people seem to be dead and alive, but in fact they are as safe as Mount Tai, and there will be no accidents.
Please also think about it and observe it! ”
Liu Bei glanced at Cheng Yu, still a little unbelievable, and then lowered his head and sipped the tea again, thinking about the authenticity.
"Gong Liu! What Zhong De said is reasonable!
Although Li Mutong Liangzhou Army is bloody and cruel, although he is ruthless; But...... That's just when dealing with the powerful of the family. ”
Guo Jia, who is good at figuring out other people's thoughts, took over the conversation and comforted: "When dealing with Li Minqian, Li Mu and the Liangzhou army were mainly benevolent.
Over the years, Liu Gong must have never heard of ...... The Liangzhou army brutalized and killed the people, right?
Moreover, if the Liangzhou army wants to fully control the territory they have captured, it must treat the people well, and will never kill the people indiscriminately. ”
Before Guo Jia's words fell, Liu Bei stopped sipping tea, and between his eyebrows, he seemed to have been somewhat cleared.
"Really?"
When Guo Jia's voice landed, Liu Bei's frowning brows slowly stretched out, and the look on his face was not as solemn and solemn as he had just been.
"Don't dare to deceive the lord!"
"What Jia said, every word is true!"
Cheng Yu and Guo Jia, who were happy in their hearts, looked solemn, and hurriedly replied in unison.
"Xuande has always been benevolent, and Cao is deeply admired!
The Liangzhou army has few weaknesses, and if our army retreats directly, it will be difficult to avoid the pursuit of the enemy......
In desperation, this is the only way to make a decision. ”
Cao Cao replaced the wine with tea, saluted Liu Bei, and said with solemn relief in his expression: "What Zhongde and Fengxiao said is true!"
This characteristic of the Liangzhou Army's 'treating the people well' is, in our eyes, the weakness of the Li Shepherd's thief.
Once such an opportunity is lost, we will inevitably die at the hands of the Liangzhou army, and the army will definitely be defeated by the Liangzhou army.
At that time...... Who will defend Changyi City? Who will protect the safety of the son? You can't let your son be humiliated by Li Mu's thief, right? ”
"It's still Meng De's thoughtfulness!"
Liu Bei, who was relieved, gave Cao Cao a cup in return, which can be regarded as agreeing with Chen Gong's strategy.
"Without further ado, we must retreat tonight!"
Cao Cao looked around at the civil and military forces in the hall and said in a deep voice: "Don't be rude to the people, you should persuade with good words."
The generals of the Yanzhou Army, who understood it, immediately prepared to go.
………………
The news that the Cao-Liu coalition army intended to withdraw from the turbulence soon spread to the Liangzhou army camp thirty miles away.
Li Mu discussed with everyone, left 40,000 soldiers and horses to garrison the camp, divided the troops into two routes with a total of 150,000 cavalry, and went to pursue the defeated soldiers of the Cao-Liu coalition army.
When Li Mu's troops came to ten miles outside the city, the people who were pretending to be soldiers were being driven by the three thousand Yanzhou troops.
At this moment, the fire in the city of Jishi was rushing, as if it were daylight.
As Cheng Yu said, although these people are dressed in military uniforms, the momentum on their bodies is far from that of real soldiers.
Just when the Liangzhou army was preparing to attack, the 'Cao-Liu Coalition Army Soldiers' not far away were kneeling on the ground in unison, begging for mercy.
The 3,000 real Yanzhou soldiers had already fled.
Li Mu, who didn't know the reason for this, was worried that this was the enemy's strategy, so he sent troops to surround these people.
After some interrogation, Li Mu learned the reason...... Cao Liu Lianjun's plan to get out of the shell, he really didn't expect it.
The night was too dark and the enemy situation was unknown, so it was naturally inconvenient for the Liangzhou army to catch up, so they had to take this group of "surrendered troops" to march into Jishi City first.
Just when Li Mu's department was fighting fires in the city, clearing chaos, rectifying public order, and pacifying the people, Dian Wei's department also withdrew its troops and returned.
Like Li Mu's department, Dian Wei and the others did not intercept the defeated troops of the Cao-Liu coalition army, and only brought back tens of thousands of "surrendered troops".
It turned out that the Cao-Liu coalition army divided the 90,000 people into two parts, and one part marched towards the Liangzhou army camp; Some of them were left behind and left to the pursuers of the Liangzhou army.
Before retreating, the Cao-Liu coalition army in Jishi City burned the grain, grass, ordnance and other materials that could not be taken away.
Although the 90,000 Cao-Liu allied troops in the city escaped, they left behind 90,000 pairs of armor; They also lost a large amount of strategic materials such as grain, grass, and ordnance.
The Liangzhou Army is not a loss!
Half an hour later, the fire in the city was extinguished, and the law and order in the city was stabilized.
At this moment, Ma Chaochao sent good news......
The Liangzhou army captured the city of Injustice, and beheaded the enemy generals Yin Dai, Niu Gai, and Zhang Xi; beheaded nearly 20,000 enemy troops; A large amount of food, ordnance and other materials were seized.
The Cao Liu coalition army in Jishi City withdrew too hastily, and the military order was not delivered in a timely manner.
When the Yin Department of the Righteous Sentence City was ordered to retreat, Ma Chao's headquarters, which had already been stationed outside the city, launched a surprise attack, and the enemy suffered heavy casualties.
The front of the middle army of the Liangzhou Army once again advanced forward, and it was less than a hundred miles away from Changyi City.
