Chapter 166: Internal Response

"Mao Hui had some dealings with the generals under Ben Hou before, and if he united with the generals of the original Yanzhou Army, I am afraid that there will be a risk of leakage." Lu Budao.

Guo Jiadao "At this time, the generals of the Yanzhou army were panicked, they were worried that the Wenhou army would attack the city, not that Cao Cao did not want to go out of the city to fight a decisive battle with our army, but that the Yanzhou army did not have such strength, Cao Cao was in charge of Yanzhou for a short time, and the generals who originally belonged to Liu Dai did not want to follow Cao Cao to fail, Mao Hui had contact with the generals under the Wenhou account before, it can be seen that Mao Hui must be unwilling to follow Cao Cao, and promised heavy profits, why worry that Mao Hui could not turn to our army, Mao Hui was originally a general in the Yanzhou army, and opened the city gate unexpectedly, Then the big thing is decided. ”

Lu Bu agreed with Guo Jia's statement, if you want to break through a city, you don't necessarily have to attack it, and it is the easiest to have an internal response in the city.

Even if the Gaoping city wall is low, if you want to break it, what price will the Xuzhou army pay, so that the generals and soldiers in the army will lose on the attacking city, Lu Bu will not agree.

Unlike the armies of the princes, the Xuzhou army is all elite, and it is not easy to train.

"Wen Hou can secretly prepare, as long as the city gate is opened, Wen Hou will send cavalry to take Changyi directly." Guo Jiadao.

"Fengxiao's words are reasonable, Yanzhou is engaged in Wang Kai, and now in Changyi, he also has the intention of taking refuge in Benhou." Lu Budao.

After discussing the specific details, Lu Bu immediately began to deploy.

Defeating Cao's army in a faster time, and then capturing Changyi, so that Cao Cao could only leave Changyi, was the result that Lu Bu wanted.

Driving away Cao Cao, the prince who dominated one side in history, Lu Bu was extremely cautious, a figure like Cao Cao, if he could be eradicated, it would be the best, once he was given time to grow up, it would be extremely terrifying.

In Gaoping City, Mao Hui's mood couldn't be calm, especially after getting the news that Lu Bu secretly ordered someone to come.

He was originally a general under Liu Dai, Liu Dai died at the hands of the Yellow Turban, and he became a general under Cao Cao.

Since the last time Liu Dai led the Yanzhou army to defeat in the hands of Lu Bu again, Mao Hui has been secretly in contact with the generals of the Xuzhou army, from Lu Bu's body, he feels ambition, Liu Dai provoked Lu Bu many times, Lu Bu will not give up, he must think of a way out in advance.

Without waiting for Lu Bu to lead the army to attack Yanzhou, Liu Dai died in the hands of the Yellow Turban, a prince, died at the hands of the traitor, after Cao Cao took over the power of Yanzhou, he controlled the Yanzhou army with thunder and defeated the rampant Qingzhou Yellow Turban, so that Mao Hui saw hope.

However, the good times did not last long, and Yuan Shu and Lu Bu led a large army to come to Yanzhou on the grounds of pacifying the Yellow Turban, which made Yanzhou panic.

Mao Hui didn't know much about Yuan Shu, but Mao Hui had a deep understanding of the strength of the soldiers under Lu Bu's command, and with the current strength of the Cao army, could he block Yuan Shu and Lu Bu from attacking at the same time.

As Mao Hui expected, Cao Cao led his troops to fight against Lu Bu, and did not take advantage, but suppressed Lu Bu in the city and did not dare to show his face, and in the face of the battle of the Xuzhou army, he could only hang up the battle exemption card, which made Mao Hui a little panicked.

He was a general under Liu Dai, and he was not reused under Cao Cao, and under Cao Cao, the generals with the surnames Cao and Xiahou were the most noble, which showed that Cao Cao did not trust other generals.

Rather than this, it is better to take refuge in Lu Bu, if the Xuzhou army breaks through the Cao army, Mao Hui is a person who has contributed to Lu Bu, and it is possible to get a higher status.

After much contemplation, Mao Hui decided to take a risk.

Under Liu Dai, Mao Hui is also a famous general, and he secretly contacted the old department and got a lot of responses, and these generals also saw no hope in Cao's army.

If you take refuge in Lu Bu, at least there will be no danger to your life, and if you continue to follow Cao Cao to fight against the Xuzhou army, the most likely situation is that you will be defeated and killed.

Cao Cao is the commander of the army, even if the war fails, he can get out of the battlefield, but ordinary soldiers are different, no one will take care of their safety on the battlefield, and after defeat, life and death are rich and noble.

Mao Hui is also a general who has experienced strong winds and waves, and he knows that when secretly responding to the Xuzhou army, he must be cautious, if the slightest rumor leaks, their lives will be in danger.

Three days later, in the evening, Mao Hui gathered together the generals of his old army who were determined to follow him.

At the time of the second watch, the city was slightly quiet, and more than 1,000 soldiers under the leadership of Mao Hui rushed to the west gate.

The Xuzhou Army, the big tent of the Chinese army, after Lu Bu arranged the tasks of the generals in the army, quietly waited for the news to come, once the use of the chess pieces in the Cao army could not be successful, if he wanted to defeat the Cao army, he had to find another way.

Gaoping City hoarded a lot of grain and grass materials, enough for Cao's army to consume for three months.

Lu Bu couldn't wait for such a long time, judging from the news from Dingtao, Yuan Shu could break through the city at any time, even if it couldn't be breached, when Dingtao's defenders were consumed to a certain number, Yuan Shu could completely leave soldiers and horses to contain Cao's army, so as to attack Changyi.

Mao Hui also has a certain position in the army, and the generals guarding the city gate did not expect that Mao Hui would attack the city gate.

For a time, the West City Gate was in chaos.

In the case that the soldiers guarding the city gate did not have much defense, the control of the city gate was quickly controlled by Mao Hui.

"Open the city gates and welcome the army of Wen Hou into the city." Mao Hui shouted.

The news of the chaos at the West City Gate soon reached the Chinese army, and Cao Cao woke up in his sleep.

"Order Cao Chun to immediately lead the tiger and leopard cavalry to the west of the city, and be sure to block the enemy army." Cao Cao hurriedly ordered.

Recently, Cao Cao seems to be holding on to the city, but in fact, he is secretly exploring the grain route of the Xuzhou army, as long as he finds the grain route of the Xuzhou army, the Yanzhou army can turn defeat into victory, and Yuan Shu sent Lei Bo and Chen Lan to lead the army into Peiguo, which shows Yuan Shu's intention to attack Pengcheng.

Lu Bu also has strategists under his command, and after a long time, he will definitely be jealous of Yuan Shu, and when the time comes, he will cede the city of Ren to Lu Bu, so why worry that Lu Bu will not evacuate from the battlefield in Yanzhou.

The betrayal of the generals in the army was not expected by Cao Cao, the Yanzhou army and the Xuzhou army were bitter and bitter, and wars often broke out between the two sides, and it is said that the generals in the Yanzhou army hated Lu Bu very much.

"The lord, Mao Hui of Liu Dai's old department, led the soldiers to attack the West City Gate." Cheng Yu said hurriedly, the situation was critical, and he didn't have the calmness he used to have.

Cao Cao gritted his teeth and said, "Mao Hui is a traitor, he dares to betray this official, and this official has already sent a tiger and leopard to the west of the city." ”

"The situation is unfavorable to our army, and the lord should be cautious." Cheng Yu said in a low voice.
