Chapter 732: A Slowdown Strategy
Chapter 732: A Tactic to Delay the Army
To the east of Caohan, one hundred and thirty miles away.
The coalition forces were advancing slowly, and the long ranks stretched for dozens of miles.
Ahead, Cao Cao, Sima Yi, Fa Zheng and Liu Biao rode side by side.
"You two, I don't know what I propose, what do you think?"
Cao Cao was riding on a horse, looking at the left and right carelessly, and his voice was not very loud.
Fa Zheng and Liu Biao next to him glanced at each other, Liu Biao smiled, nodded and said: "I don't care, it's just that if the coalition is broken because of this, you and I will be sinners in the world!" I don't know if Fa Zheng can be the master of this Bashu? ”
"I can't be the master! However, before I came, the lord said that everything depends on the general trend of the two armies, if Duke Cao and Duke Liu can be connected and form a victory, my army of Bashu will be led by two! It's just that Chu He, the king of Changshan, has returned to the deep mountains, and the dragon has entered the deep sea, and he wants to plot against him, aren't you worried about being broken by the strategists under his command? You must know that Shuangxun, Guo Jia, Chen Gong, Tian Feng, and Li Ru are not fools on the street...... I won't say much, in a word, although I will not stop this matter, but when I do not see the hope of victory, I will definitely not help! ”
Fa Zheng looked ahead, but when he saw the undulating mountains and verdant mountains and forests on the edge of the sky, although there was a slight pain in his heart, a firmness also flashed.
Cao Cao turned his head to look at Fa Zheng, haha smiled, shook his head and said, "Fa Zheng, you are too careful!" Chu He is arrogant, sooner or later he will die, if you want to be a wall-watcher, just do as you want, when the time comes to divide the land, you Bashu will not get any benefits! This time, let's take a look at Xiahou Chun's success! ”
Da! Da! Da!
While a few people were chatting tepidly, a group of cavalry galloped towards the end of the sky ahead, and it seemed that there were at least five thousand people.
"Stop!"
Cao Cao's brows furrowed, and he turned his head to the herald and said.
Suddenly, the army behind him slowly stopped, and the army behind it was still marching, slowly advancing towards the meeting point.
"Lord, it's not General Xiahou Chun......"
Sima Yi stepped forward, got the information from a horse galloping in front, and after reading it, he said to Cao Cao.
"Huh? Could it be the Chu River? ”
Cao Cao's brows furrowed and he asked in a deep voice.
Sima Yi handed the information to Cao Cao, sighed and said, "It's Lejin!" He said that the zombie army had crossed the river and was going to pick up a zombie cavalry from Qishan......"
As soon as these words came out, everyone around couldn't help frowning.
Even Liu Biao frowned slightly, what happened in Wudu, Situ Xunfeng had already sent someone to tell him, which was also the reason why he wanted to unite with Cao Cao to kill Chu He.
However, he had just received the information in less than ten days, and he didn't know Situ Xunfeng's specific actions.
Could it be that the Lord's walking path has really been discovered?
Also, the Chu River got those routes of safe passage, and sprinkled some exploration horses along the way, and they would definitely be able to find it, so Jihua would have to change it, at least ......
Liu Biao thought in his heart, his eyes were filled with a hint of hesitation, looking at the cavalry that was getting closer and closer, he sighed and said: "Meng De, I'm afraid Jihua will change this time!" ”
"Humph! Shouldn't this be Chu He's plan? ”
Cao Cao said coldly, but he already believed a little.
Otherwise, how could Chu He be willing to let the generals under his command come towards this side with cavalry.
"Le Jin, the general under the command of the King of Chu, was ordered to come to inform the coalition army that the zombie army is gathering by the river, and some zombies have crossed the Yellow River, along a safe passage, heading towards Qishan, according to my lord's guess, they are very likely to pick up Situ Xunfeng and return to Xiliang ......"
Le Jin whispered, took out a map from his bosom, marked several safe routes, and simply clicked on the problems that Chu He found in Wudu.
"My lord, I ask the coalition forces to send Ibu to assemble on the bank of the Xiaoqing River fifty miles ahead to form a second defensive camp, and in addition, send two armies to this place to cut off Situ Xunfeng's retreat and give him the most difficult blow! In addition, my lord will set a ten-mile trap in this place, here and here, to prevent the zombie army from invading the inside! ”
Listening to Le Jin's words, a trace of doubt in the hearts of Cao Cao and the others has also been eliminated.
If it weren't for that, they wouldn't believe that Chu He would act like this.
Fa Zheng looked at the map, his brows furrowed, but his heart was full of doubts, what happened in Wudu, he didn't know?
It seems that this matter needs to be investigated by someone to go back to Haode!
Thinking of this, Fa Zheng turned around and whispered a few words to the guard behind him, who rode away towards the rear.
Sima Yi looked at the detailed map in Le Jin's hand, his eyes were full of excitement, and he nodded and said, "Okay!" Good! Good! The prince's arrangement is the best, but I want to know, how many garrisons are there in Jincheng? Will they be able to stop the mass crossing of the zombies? ”
"Of course! Our lord has an army of 400,000 in Jincheng, and the ports along the Yellow River have been completely closed! Now that the matter is urgent, I can't stay long, I need to go to this critical place to set a trap! I don't care about the rest, whether you are worthy of it or not, it's your problem! ”
After Lejin finished speaking, he was about to gallop towards the south.
Cao Cao frowned, looked at Le Jin who was about to leave, and asked, "Le Jin, Xiahou Chun, can you see it?" ”
"See! He came to Caohan yesterday, and happened to encounter a zombie attack, and he was trapped in the city of Caohan at the moment, but when I came, my lord had already brought people to rescue, as for whether he could be saved, I really can't say! ”
With that, Le Jin let out a long sigh, with a hint of worry in his eyes, shook his head at everyone, and galloped towards the south.
Ahead, the black-pressed cavalry team, following closely behind Le Jin, headed south.
With a gleam in his eyes, Sima Yi arched his hand to Cao Cao, who was hesitating, and said, "My lord, I don't think the King of Chu will cheat this time!" ”
"Meng De, since the king of Chu has already had a countermeasure, he is willing to be this one forward, and we are also happy to be free, so we rely on the Jihua of the Chu River! The matter of stopping the zombie cavalry, I think it will be handed over to our army and the Fazheng army, and your army will go to Xiaoqinghe to station, okay? ”
Liu Biao turned his head to look at Fa Zheng, who looked pensive, and then turned his head to look at Cao Cao and said.
Cao Cao looked at Liu Biao in surprise, with a lot of unwillingness in his heart, seeing that Jihua was about to succeed, but now he had to give up, but he also knew that if what Chu He said was true this time, they would have to do so, otherwise they would become sinners in the world.
"That's it! That's all I can do, but I think I still have to send someone to the King of Chu to have a look! How about Chung Tat go on our behalf? ”
Cao Cao turned his head to look at the two and said.
Fa Zheng smiled, and Liu Biao also nodded, agreeing with Cao Cao's suggestion.
