Qian Mo, who also fell to the ground, attacked again with a sledgehammer, how dare Cao Hong hesitate, turned his head and ran wildly, and immediately a team of guards who were not afraid of death rushed up, blocking Qian Mo's way.

Qian Mo turned over and rode into the camp of the Wei soldiers with a laugh, the sledgehammer waved like a wheel, and everywhere he passed, the wailing continued, and the Wei soldiers who blocked it were like kites with broken strings, and they were knocked into the air one after another, killed, fallen or stoned to death.

Cao Hong's army was defeated like a mountain, under the front and rear attacks led by Qian Mo and Tian Ye, and was trampled by the unicorn beasts, five thousand elite cavalry died and wounded, and those who surrendered surrendered, and in the end only six or seven hundred people escaped.

Wang Baoyu captured more than 2,000 war horses, and the loss of troops could be replenished by surrendering troops, and he won a complete victory.

When the army returned to Fancheng, Wang Baoyu set up a banquet to reward the soldiers of the three armies, and Tian Ye and Qian Mo contributed a lot. Tian Ye felt unfamiliar with Qian Mo, and he frequently toasted him during the banquet, but Qian Mo, who had been the overlord of one party, was inevitably arrogant, only drank disrespectfully, and did not say much.

Wang Baoyu didn't explain too much about this, and felt that it was not yet time.

Although he won the first battle, Wang Baoyu was not complacent, and Sima's main army was overwhelming, and it was still not to be underestimated.

Cao Hong fled to the shore of the water, set up camp, two days later, Sima Yi led the army across the water, a look at the scale of the camp and Cao Hong's head-wrenched appearance, knew that this time must have been defeated by Wang Baoyu again, immediately angry, called Cao Hong to the front.

Cao Hong stood with his head hanging down, waiting for Sima Yi's reprimand. Seeing that he did not take the initiative to plead guilty at this time, Sima Yi was even more annoyed in his heart, and suddenly slapped the case and scolded: "Cao Hong! Are you guilty?! ”

It was the first time Cao Hong saw Sima Yi's appearance, cold sweat on his head was like rain, and he hurriedly kowtowed: "The subordinates are guilty, and the crime deserves death!" ”

"You really deserve to die!" Sima Yi said fiercely: "Pontus ordered you to lead the elite cavalry to attack Fancheng, because Fancheng has no generals, and there are no more than 10,000 soldiers. Now there are 50,000 elite soldiers in Fancheng, and your 5,000 people dare to take risks. As a general, he can't judge the situation, so that the army is defeated and he is a minister in vain! ”

Cao Hong's body trembled slightly, and while pleading guilty, he also made excuses for himself: "Sima Dudu, the last general knows that he is not handling things well, if it weren't for the sudden appearance of an unknown general in the enemy formation, his martial arts are unfathomable, and there will definitely be no such fiasco." ”

Oh? Sima Yi frowned, and asked, "Have you ever found out the origin of this general's name?" ”

"I have learned that his name is Qian Mo, and his origin is unknown." Cao Hongdao.

Sima Yi didn't know about this person, and waved his hand impatiently, "That's it, if you dare to act rashly in the future, you will definitely not be spared!" ”

Cao Hong hurriedly retreated, extremely depressed. Sima Yi also fell into contemplation, and he had already sent people to find out about the generals around Wang Baoyu, such as Fan Jinqiang and his party.

Sima Yi also heard that Fan Jinqiang, Ma Yunlu and other generals had been sent to Jingzhou to deal with post-war affairs, why did they suddenly kill Qian Mo? Moreover, this person can defeat Cao Hong lightly, and he is clearly a general who is invincible, and there are such martial artists in the world today, all of whom have great achievements and reputation, why don't you know that there is such a person?

Sima Yi was trying to analyze Qian Mo, and Cao Zhen cautiously stepped forward and asked: "Back to the governor, the bodies of Zhang Da and Fan Jiang have been recovered, can they be memorialized?" ”

"Whoever betrays the Lord shall be buried without sacrifice." Sima Yi said coldly, from this point of view, he never had a good impression of Zhang Da and Fan Jiang.

Cao Zhen inevitably shuddered, in the past, Sima Yi grovelled in front of Cao Pi, and only promised, but now he feels that he has changed a lot, not angry but mighty, and shuddering when he is near.

Two lonely small tombs without tombstones on the bank of the water, side by side, are the final destination of Zhang Da and Fan Jiang.

After Sima Yi stayed for two days, he still activated half of the army and came to the foot of a small hill five miles away from Fancheng, where he set up a camp.

Sima Yi was not in a hurry to attack, so he stopped, not knowing what he wanted to do, of course Wang Baoyu would not be stupid enough to sneak attack his camp, and the two armies were in a stalemate again.

"Baoyu, although we have two generals and 50,000 horses, Sima Yi's army is still not to be underestimated." Shi Guangyuan said.

"Well, what you said makes sense, but fighting with Sima Yi requires not only manpower, but also brainpower. Sima Yi has been cautious for half his life, and he is used to pondering everything, exchanging the minimum price for high profits. With his style of doing things, this time he would never risk losing his troops and launching a siege lightly, but he would definitely nest in the camp and think of a bad idea. Wang Baoyu nodded.

"That's what I'm worried about." Shi Guangyuan reminded: "Fancheng is low-lying, when Cao Ren was in Fancheng, Guan Yu once flooded Fancheng, and Sima Yi will do the same if I am worried." ”

A word woke up the person in the dream, Wang Baoyu suddenly understood, it was not clear that Sima Yi was doing this, he hurriedly secretly sent a horse detective, disguised himself, to investigate Sima Yi's military situation.

The news of the return of the horses confirmed Shi Guangyuan's speculation, Sima Yi lined up the front army as a cover, and secretly sent Cao Hong to lead the rear team of soldiers and horses to clean the river and dig a canal on the bank of the river, and the direction was Fancheng.

The water is a tributary of the Han River, and the amount of water is very small, so there is no need to be afraid, but Sima Yi's actions are clearly to let the water of the Han River pour over, and the situation will become very strict.

If Sima Yi's army plot succeeded, Fancheng would be besieged by the water, and Wang Baoyu's 50,000 troops would not be able to leave the city at all, and would be trapped here by Sima Yi.

This matter could not be delayed, Wang Baoyu immediately convened a meeting and gathered the crowd to discuss: "Sima Yi is really very cunning and wants to flood Fancheng. Everyone, what do you think? ”

"Baoyu, wait for me to lead the army out of the city and defeat Sima Yi in one fell swoop!" Qian Mo asked.

"The last general is willing to lead the army to cross the river from the upper reaches and attack Sima Yi's army from the rear." The fields also came out of the way.

"Yes, yes, General Tian and I attacked it back and forth, so that Sima Yi had no way to go to the sky and no way to enter the ground!" Qian Mo said with a grin.

"Two generals, Sima Yi is not a fool, he will definitely be on guard against this, it will definitely not work. Besides, we don't have enough troops, and we can't take advantage of a head-on battle. Wang Baoyu waved his hand.

Everyone was silent again, and the steward, who had been listening, spoke: "Master, as the so-called water and fire are incompatible, Sima Yi wants to use water attack, why don't we use fire attack?" ”

"Haha, that's a good point, it's better to lead the army to go tomorrow night and burn Sima Yi's camp." Qian Mohaha laughed.

"Sima Yi will never let us burn his camp lightly." Wang Baoyu still disagreed.
