Chapter 1486: The Battle of Xuzhou (83)
Guo Jia's worries are not unreasonable, and Cao Cao's concerns are also reasonable, after all, with the emergence of Guan Yu, if this battle continues, it will inevitably be more auspicious, and their withdrawal, although they will suffer in a short period of time, can once again grasp the initiative, unlike continuing to stay will only be extremely passive.
However, Zhang Xun's side, especially Cao Ren, had a lot of complaints about such an order, after all, the battle situation was quite favorable to them, although Zhang Xun was a little dangerous, but it was not enough to be fatal, as long as they were given a little more time, Zhang Fei would be defeated.
But Cao Gong's decision was a little frustrating, not only him, but also the soldiers, they didn't understand such a decision very well, but Cao Cao had already made a decision, although Cao Ren wanted to say something, but after Cao Cao's pupils had become a little sharp, he didn't dare to say another word immediately, the sense of oppression made him give up the urge to ask the reason, and even avoided his eyes, Cao Ren knew that this was not fear, but respect.
Cao Ren withdrew, before leaving, he did not forget to help Zhang Xun relieve the siege, compared with Cao Ren, Zhang Xun was rescued but some were not willing to withdraw, he can understand this, the battle has come to this point, he has already killed the red eye, so he retreated, unwilling, but Cao Ren still kindly reminded him, all withdrew, if the Shouchun army does not withdraw, then wait for the dragoon and Zhang Fei to attack, go now, you can still go, wait for the next time you want to go, I'm afraid you can't go.
Cao Ren said everything that should be said, how Zhang Xun should choose, it was his decision, although the two armies were united and the battle was up to Cao Cao, but don't forget that he had the right to command independently, that is, if he wanted to stay at this time, then no one could stop him.
"Okay." Zhang Xun is not stupid, not to mention that he has no better choice at this time, if Zhang Fei has a team, he will stay and stay, but the key is that there are dragoons and Guan Yu, will he stay and wait for others to kill? The hesitation just now was at best unwilling, and he felt that Cao Cao was too cautious, in fact, he could give them some more time, after all, it would take some distance to come from Qi County.
But the reason why Cao Cao chose to retreat was because Guan Yu couldn't come in a short time, and whether it was the dragoon army or Zhang Fei's limited strength, they couldn't stop them.
When the time comes, don't talk about withdrawing, I'm afraid that no matter how to save my life, I will have to cry out in vain.
Fortunately, I learned these words from Cao Ren's mouth, if I went to question Cao Cao, it would be too embarrassing, and I couldn't even see such a basic truth.
He really had to be glad that because this conversation was just the two of them, it would not be heard by others, nor would it be known by others, as for what Cao Ren would think, and whether he would promote it like a long-tongued woman, it didn't matter.
Of course, it was more of a short contact, and it was clear that Cao Ren was not such a person: "General Cao, you said that if we were able to defeat Zhang Fei just now, would we still withdraw?" ”
"I don't know, I think I'll retreat as well." Cao Ren thought about it very seriously, although even he himself was not sure, but the reality was so, Guan Yu's Setshan camp was a big danger after all, if there was no big battle, it would be better to start a direct war with them, but after engaging with Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun's short soldiers, and then confronting Guan Yu, this in itself was a great test for their troops, so it was best to avoid the enemy's edge first, let the soldiers retreat to a safe place first, make a slight adjustment, and then engage with them, but there was a better chance of victory.
Zhang Xun was silent, in fact, assumptions like this were very disdainful of him in the past, but today he didn't know why he suddenly asked such a sentence, but the reality is like this, first of all, we must accept it, but there is a sentence Cao Ren said well, even if you win, you have to retreat first, not to mention just now, their situation is still a little dangerous.
He is not stupid, a Zhang Fei makes him a little stretched, it is self-evident how difficult the strongest mountain camp under Liu Lan's tent will be to deal with, and it will only be more dangerous to stay when the time comes, but in the same way, is it safe to retreat for the time being?
Not necessarily.
But one thing must be clear: retreating to a safer place and opening up to engage the enemy, although there will be little chance of victory, but at least it will not be like this.
The appearance of Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun shows that here is the decisive battle point they chose early on, and there is no chance of winning when they clash with the enemy here, but if they retreat to Fengxian for a generation, where is their control area, although it was once Liu Lan's battle leader, but at least now it is controlled by them, if it is arranged, they have the final say, that is to say, the initiative of the battlefield is in their hands.
And Liu Lan is really ready for a complete decisive battle with them, it is an unknown, does he dare to make a big move? In fact, it is necessary to put a question mark.
If Liu Lan really wants to attack, then they will have no way back, whether it is for Cao Cao or Zhang Xun, there is no way back, and they can only fight to the death.
The so-called upper and lower with the same desire wins, Zhang Xun reviewed an important reason for their successive defeats, that is, because of internal differentiation, as well as direct distrust with allies, now it's okay, it's really that part, who will still intrigue, isn't it the same desire from top to bottom, under such a premise, everyone is ironclad, how can there be no reason not to win?
The troops began to evacuate, although Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei continued to harass, but under the command of Xiahou Yuan, they never let them succeed, the troops evacuated smoothly all the way, a day later, finally arrived in Feng County, but the troops did not enter the city, but camped outside the city, Cao Jun and Shouchun Army respectively set up two large camps, the camp fence was made of rough wood, and set up antlers and dug pits, everything was completed at the fastest speed, but there was absolutely solid.
At this time, Cao Jun and Shouchun Jun are completely safe, at least Zhang Xun thinks so, and Cao Cao doesn't think so, when he arrives here, it is actually the most dangerous, because once Liu Lan's troops appear, it will inevitably mean that they are really going to fight to the death.
He kept sending scouts to find out the news, no matter what happened in Xuzhou, he had to report it, in fact, he really didn't want to fight with Liu Lan now.
doesn't have this confidence, although he took the lead in this battle, but the key to really making him excited was Yuan Shao, without him sending troops, Cao Cao would not provoke Liu Lan, but as a result, Liu Lan gave up Qingzhou and destroyed his plan, and in the end, when he wanted to borrow Yuan Tan to fight to the death, he didn't expect Yan Liang to lose again.
This battle is too much of an idea, especially when he finally made up his mind to send troops, but in Pei County, seeing victory in sight, Guan Yu appeared again, this feeling is not very good, especially for Cao Cao, who is involved in the yin and yang of soldiers, it is more like some kind of hint from God, so in this case, he doesn't want to continue to fight Liu Lan, let alone fight to the death with the Xuzhou army.
Under such fear, two days passed, and the scouts went back and forth in countless waves, although the scope of investigation has always been in Feng County, but after all, Feng County and Pei County are very close, and the reconnaissance distance is enough, but Guan Yu and the Xuzhou Army have not been able to appear for two consecutive days, either this matter is a little strange, or they have given up the attack, or Guan Yu has come a little slowly, they have not yet converged, or they have just converged. Since this is the case, then he will send people to keep an eye on it, anyway, he must not be negligent, the more times like this, the more he must not be negligent, maybe Guan Yu wants to relax himself.
And Guo Jia has a different view on this, he always thinks that Guan Yu has come, and he will not give up easily, so he will give us some deterrence, after all, in the past few years, especially the second battle of Xuzhou, it will make Liu Lan feel that it is his initiative to make peace, which makes us feel that Xuzhou can be bullied, and this time, he wants to learn to deal with Yan Liang and give us a warning in the real sense.
Now the enemy army is not going to come to Fengxian, but there must be a huge conspiracy brewing, it can be said that they are now in the shadows, and we are on the bright side, if Guan Yu wants to attack, he will definitely choose an excellent time that he thinks, and it is best to be able to break through our army in one fell swoop.
Guo Jia carefully analyzed such an opportunity, they did not have obvious omissions, and there should be no flaws, but the defense of this IQ in their eyes is solid, but what it will be like in Guan Yu's eyes, it is not clear, maybe in their eyes, it is foolproof, maybe in Guan Yu's eyes, there are flaws everywhere.
Therefore, under Guo Jia's suggestion, whether it is the Shouchun Army or the Yanzhou Army, once the troops and generals must maintain a high degree of vigilance, there must be no carelessness, if the Xuzhou Army appears, they must fight tenaciously, and do not be afraid of casualties, otherwise, the army will be finished.
