Chapter 439: Plans Can't Keep Up with Changes
So, Guo Jia, who came to attack Xizhai and tried to pinch the softest persimmon, won the jackpot, and he will directly face the most powerful military force on Lu Bu's side! You must know that the Lu Bu army that appears here now is preparing to attack the combined army of Xiahoudun and Cao Hong. If you don't have enough strength, is it possible to accomplish such a difficult task?
It is conceivable that the army left by Lu Bu outside must be much more elite than the army ambushed in the city now!
On the other hand, Guo Jia's side is the opposite, who entered the city with Cao Cao and was responsible for protecting Cao Cao, which was the most elite unit of Cao Cao's army. Immediately, it was the regular troops of Xiahoudun and Cao Hong, as for Guo Jia's side, because the task was the simplest and safest, it was precisely the miscellaneous army that was left for Guo Jia.
Are you kidding! The weakest on his own side just met the strongest of the enemy, and the most important thing is that he Guo Jia is precisely in this weakest army!
Also, not to mention the question of strength and weakness, according to Guo Jia's expectations, at least half of the people left outside by Lu Bu will even be more than half. As for Guo Jia's side, he is only a quarter of Cao Jun's troops. In this battle of Puyang, the number of people on both sides of Cao Cao and Lu Bu was about the same. In other words, Guo Jia is now facing not only the enemy's elite division, but also the number of this elite division is more than twice that of his own!
And now it's a head-on encounter, and there is no chance to steal and cheat, how can this battle be fought? Do you just turn around and run away?
Perhaps from the perspective of Tian Ji horse racing, the weakest met the strongest opponent, and Cao Cao's side definitely made a lot of money. But is war a game? If someone else's top horse outperforms your bottom horse, they can continue to compete with your medium horse.
Two armies. Far away in the wilderness, they were quite surprised by each other's appearance. It was still in the reaction period, so it didn't start a fight for a while. The scene was eerily quiet. The soldiers were waiting for decisions and orders from above.
Guo Jia was thinking about whether he should run away directly, and his eyelids suddenly jumped.
Nima!
It wasn't a big problem for him Guo Jia to choose to run away directly at this time, but what if Cao Cao happened to break through from the West Gate at this time? Didn't you throw yourself into the net and go straight to the most dangerous place?!
Sure enough, the plan can't keep up with the changes! Originally, the reason why Guo Jia made such an arrangement was based on the premise that the enemy army in front of him was fighting with Xiahoudun and Cao Hong. But the other party hadn't reached the south yet, so he confronted Guo Jia in the west. Then, for Cao Cao, the decision to break through to the west in advance was the most dangerous decision. And from the direction from the beginning, breaking through in the south is the safest choice.
In this era, there is no mobile phone that allows Guo Jia to notify Cao Cao immediately, and there is no signal flare or anything that allows Guo Jia to fire a shot into the sky. Now that it has been determined that it is a conspiracy, Cao Cao will inevitably encounter an ambush in the city. So, Cao Cao's first reaction was to break through to the west. And now, Guo Jia sent people to run to the south. Let Xiahoudun and them send someone in to inform Cao Cao again, it is obviously too late.
But Simon is now closed again, and it is impossible to enter from the outside. It could only be that Cao Cao opened the door from the inside when he broke through. Well, follow the development of time. The army of Lu Bu in front of him had not yet been able to reach the south, which meant that Guo Jia still had a chance to lure the enemy away. At that time, Cao Cao broke out of the West Gate. Even if you can't see Guo Jia, it's better than seeing the enemy!
But. Just as Guo Jia was about to make a decision, he was stunned again.
Damn it! How on earth can you lure the enemy away? Straight run? Not long ago, Guo Jia had just used the trick of luring the enemy into an ambush. Now that I haven't even hit a beat, I just turn around and run away, maybe the enemy will still catch up stupidly?
So, pretend to fight first, and then run away? Are you kidding! At that time, Guo Jia's side had not had time to escape, and Cao Cao estimated that he had already rushed out of the city!
On this side, Guo Jia was sweating profusely and thinking; On the other side, Chen Gong was also shocked, at this time, how could Cao Jun appear here and intercept him, could it be that his plan had already been completely seen through?! So what's going on now? Is it to annihilate the force he has now? Or a direct attack on Puyang City? Will Cao Cao still enter the city? What about the plans in the city? What has become of the South?
Obviously, the lack of means of communication not only gave Guo Jia a headache, but also made Chen Gong a little undecided. In addition, it was already the time of the first shift, the sun had already set, and the vision was not clear, only knowing that there were many people on the other side, but I didn't know how many people there were. If he could judge the number of people on the opposite side who were only half of his side, then Chen Gong would definitely attack first without hesitation!
At this point, Guo Jia took advantage of the dark wind in the night, at least Guo Jia was able to roughly judge how many people the other party was.
At this moment, suddenly there was a loud bang in the city, and then Guo Jia and the others saw the West Gate, which was not far away, and instantly burst into flames. In the quiet night, the golden drums in the city sounded in unison for a while, and the shouts were like a river boiling over the sea.
Chen Gong's eyes lit up, and it began! It seems that Cao Cao has really entered the city! So don't think about the matter over there for the time being, the top priority is to deal with the current situation!
"It's on fire?!" Yu Ban was taken aback.
"Not only the West Gate, but all four gates, if I am right. The fire at the four gates can not only temporarily block the escape route of the lord inside, but also prevent the people who are receiving from outside from entering the rescue. It seems that Lu Bu really wants to surround the lord to death in this Puyang City! Guo Jia said, and immediately made a decision, while Cao Cao could not break through in a short period of time, it was also considered to have bought Guo Jia a little time for the change of direction, at least Guo Jia did not have to worry about Cao Cao suddenly rushing out of the West Gate, "Immediately send someone over there to inform Cao Hong, let him break through the south gate, go in to rescue the lord, and take the lord to escape directly from the south gate." At the same time, let Xiahoudun lead troops over to help us here! ”
The enemies outside are all here with Guo Jia now, that is to say, there is no need to leave two troops in the south, and now what Guo Jia has to do is to delay as much time as possible.
A fast horse secretly left behind the troops with Guo Jia's arrangement and headed south. Guo Jia drove forward,
"Chen Gong! Get the hell out of here! ”
According to Lu Bu's character, as the leader, he must be dealing with Cao Cao, who is also the leader, in the city at this time, so if nothing else, the leader of the troops in front of him is undoubtedly Chen Gong.
Moreover, if it was Lu Bu, or other generals, if the two armies suddenly met in the field, they would definitely fight directly without saying a word. Only smart people like Guo Jia and Chen Gong, because they have more thoughts, will once have the same indifferent confrontation situation as just now.
But now, Guo Jia took the initiative to speak, breaking the silence.
"Sure enough, it's worthy of Shuangfei Guo Jia, did you see through my plan?" Chen Gong replied. (To be continued......)
