Chapter 963: Ten Thousand Horsemen Break the Formation (1)
Cao Cao pondered for a moment and asked, "Shoucheng, what do you think of the city walls of Green Ridge City if they are demolished?" ”
Ma Teng was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "Your Majesty, the last general doesn't know anything else, only understands military affairs, the walls of this Green Ridge City are indeed of little effect, and the Green Ridge Fortress can provide shelter, on the contrary, if the Green Ridge Fortress is captured by the enemy, it is impossible to defend it with the situation of the Green Ridge City, so I think the walls of the Green Ridge City are really unnecessary!" ”
Cao Cao nodded.
Yue Kefeng looked a little undecided, and his handsome case contained the order of Vesudeva I who had just been sent, and the tone of the order was a little displeased, obviously dissatisfied with Yue Kefeng's delay in launching an attack on the Green Ridge Fortress.
"General, Your Majesty has come to order again?" Takusang, the general of the ministry of cronies, asked with some concern.
Yue Kefeng nodded, walked to the map shelf, patted the location of the Green Ridge Fortress, and said angrily: "Now there are more than 500,000 troops gathered in the Green Ridge Fortress, and the Green Ridge Fortress is a dangerous pass that the Wei people have operated for several years that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the terrain in the Green Ridge Valley is narrow, and it is difficult for our army to deploy!" To conquer the Green Ridge Fortress is tantamount to a fool's dream! ”
"General, although we all know this, this is something that Your Majesty and the nobles of the Imperial City do not want to hear or believe!"
Yue Kefeng sighed and said worriedly: "I'm only worried that the attack on the Green Ridge Fortress will not succeed, but the Wei army will take advantage of it!" ”
Yue Kefeng's heart moved, he turned around suddenly, and hurriedly ordered: "Let the Kaishi Department move closer immediately, and at the same time order the newly recruited army to come over as soon as possible!" Since it is impossible to change His Majesty's order, then you can only prepare as much as possible! ”
"Yes! General, do you need to give an order to the sheep in the north? ”
"No, we must let Yangjian lead an army of 200,000 to suppress the Wei army in Kangju, otherwise our army is in danger of being cut off from the rear land!
As Tuosang was about to leave the tent, a scout officer hurried into the tent.
"General, the latest information from the Western Regions!" The scout knelt with a small bamboo pipe in both hands.
Yue Kefeng snatched the bamboo pipe, took out the handbook, read it, and frowned.
"General, what's wrong?" Tuosang asked a little nervously.
"Emperor Cao Cao of Great Wei arrived at the Green Ridge Fortress a few days ago!" Yue Kefeng said in a deep voice.
Tuosang was stunned for a moment, and said with some surprise: "Why is the emperor of Great Wei here?" ”
Yue Kefeng said in a deep voice: "The Great Wei Emperor's coming to the Green Ridge Fortress only shows one thing, this battle will definitely not end as simply as we imagined!" ”
"Your Majesty, Kefeng still hasn't made any movement this month!" Zhao Yun strode into the lobby and said with a look of annoyance, and Zhang Ren came in with him, at this time, Cao Cao was thinking about the problem in front of the sand table.
Cao Cao raised his head and said with a smile: "Zilong has worked hard!" Then he motioned to the Imperial Forest Army on the side to give Zhao Yun water to drink.
Zhao Yun swallowed the cow and poured a large jar of water.
"Your Majesty, the last general and General Zhang led 10,000 cavalry to invite the battle today, no matter how we scold, the slave just won't come out! It's infuriating than a tortoise! ”
Cao Cao smiled, then his face turned straight, and he thought: "This month, Kefeng has always been good at using soldiers, and he is cautious, so it's not surprising that he can calm down!" ”
"Your Majesty, the strength of our army is enough to defeat it, so it's better to kill it!" Zhang Ren on the side looked a little impatient.
Cao Cao smiled: "No hurry! The Kushans are eager to attack the city, so how can we not let them get their wish? ”
Zhao Yun and Zhang Ren exchanged a puzzled look.
Cao Cao explained: "In a million-scale war, even if our army's combat strength is slightly superior to that of the other party, it will pay a lot of price!" It's better to let the enemy attack our fortified city first, so as to consume the opponent's living strength and morale! And then we'll strike again! ”
Zhao Yun and Zhang Ren suddenly realized.
Zhang Ren immediately said with some concern: "Your Majesty, what if the other party temporarily changes his plan and goes north to attack Kangju?" ”
Cao Cao smiled, "I and Zhicai both think that Yue Kefeng would never do this!" Our army has more than 500,000 heavy troops in the fortress of Green Ridge, and if Yue Kefeng's main force goes north, it will inevitably expose the weak flank and rear, and his gains will outweigh the losses! ”
"Your Majesty, if the Guishan people retreat temporarily, then won't we have lost all our efforts!"
Cao Cao couldn't help but nodded, "It's indeed possible!" However, according to the current feedback from the Guishan Imperial Capital, there is no such possibility! The Guishan government and opposition almost overwhelmingly demanded a decisive battle with us, and the Guishan Emperor's attitude now is also very resolute! ”
"Hehe, this Guishan man is really interesting! I was so arrogant before, and after being taught a lesson by the two generals Meng Qi and Shoucheng, I was afraid again, and then I saw that our army took the initiative to retreat and became arrogant! Zhang Ren laughed, with a look of mockery.
Cao Cao smiled: "This is probably the characteristic of their nation!" Either way, it's still very good for us to be eager to fight now! ”
Three days passed in a blink of an eye, and during these three days, Yue Kefeng had never launched an attack on the Green Ridge Fortress, but Kaishi and the newly recruited troops of the Northern Provinces had been steadily moving towards the Kushan camp outside the western exit of the Green Ridge Valley.
Guishan's camp was nearly three times larger than three days ago, stretching for dozens of miles, and the clan flag was like a cloud, and the momentum was incomparably magnificent.
"Your Majesty, Yue Kefeng's cronies have transferred the 200,000 troops on the southern flank of Kaishi to his side, and at the same time, the 600,000 new troops are basically in place!" The herald reported.
Cao Cao said with a smile: "It seems that Yue Kefeng is going to attack in the next two days!" ”
Ma Teng slapped his face and said excitedly: "It's better to come quickly!" I've been so bored these days! ”
Everyone couldn't help but laugh.
Yue Kefeng camp.
"General!" Tuosang hurriedly walked into the big tent and saluted.
Yue Kefeng asked without raising his head: "Did Your Majesty give another order to blow it!" ”
"Yes! This time His Majesty is on fire in the order!! Tuosang said with a worried expression, and then presented the order to Yue Kefeng.
Yue Kefeng glanced at it, casually threw the order on the table, Yue Kefeng closed his eyes, took a deep breath, opened his eyes suddenly, and resolutely ordered: "Pass the order, attack!" ”
The next day, when the sky was bright, a sound like rolling thunder suddenly came from the west, and Cao Cao, who was discussing military affairs with the generals, couldn't help but have his eyes lit up, and walked out of the hall quickly, and the generals hurriedly followed.
Cao Cao looked to the west, listened carefully to the rhythmic thunderous sound, and smiled: "Good! Very good! The people of Guishan really lived up to my high hopes! ”
"Every one will obey orders!"
"The last general!" The generals hugged their fists together, and everyone seemed extremely excited, and these fierce generals had been waiting impatiently for a long time. (To be continued.) )
