Hearing Cheng Yu's words, Cao Ren couldn't help but be stunned, if he insisted on staying and defending the city, it was meaningless.As Cheng Yu said, this time the enemy army has broken through the city, and there are as many as 10,000 people, even if he goes to gather troops and horses now, it will be too late.I'm afraid that by then, before I have gathered my troops and horses, I am afraid that the enemies who have poured into the city have already begun to slaughter the whole city.Cao Ren was still a little reluctant to give up and said: "Then, there are still 10,000 soldiers and horses in this city, can we just abandon them like this" Hearing Cao Ren's words, Cheng Yu couldn't help but shake his head and said: "General Cao Ren was able to do this at such a life-and-death juncture, and considering those soldiers, this move is really gratifying, but the general seems to have neglected one thing." ”Cao Ren was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked: "I neglected one thing, I don't know what I neglected, and I actually caused the military advisor to let me give up all the sergeants in the city." ”Cheng Yu hurriedly said: "The reason why the enemy army was able to sneak into the city this time was because of the camouflage of Han De's army, and there were also Han De's troops in it.Has General Cao Ren forgotten that the soldiers in this city are all the soldiers and horses recruited by Han De this time, and since the enemy army has come to break the city with these men and horses, he must be the first to subdue Han De's soldiers and horses in these cities, and then he will make a move against the rest of our army.Therefore, even if General Cao Ren wants to recruit those sergeants to resist the enemy soldiers this time, I am afraid that those enemy troops will use those surrendered troops to recruit the sergeants in the city to fight us, so we should take the best policy and find Cao Wei's pro-army. ”"This."
Listening to Cheng Yu's words, Cao Ren couldn't help gritting his teeth fiercely, Cao Ren didn't understand.Most of the 80,000 soldiers and horses brought by Han De this time are the Xiliang army and the Xiqiang army, these soldiers and horses are very stubborn and united, and they have never dealt with them, and it is obviously unreasonable to want to recruit these people with their own ability and let them deal with the Xiliang army and the Xiqiang army that have surrendered to the Zhao army.Time is pressing, there is no room for negligence, considering that tens of thousands of enemy troops have broken the city, Cao Ren hurriedly said to Cheng Yu and Cao Hong ruthlessly: "Since the city has been broken by the enemy today, there is no point in us staying here to defend it, immediately set off to gather all the soldiers in the palace to go to the south city gate, meet Cao Zhen, and then go to the camp outside the city to defend together." ”"Yes, General."
Cao Ren gave the order, and everyone immediately began to move, except for holding weapons and riding war horses, the rest of the things were not taken away.Time is of the essence, if it is because of the greed for some possessions, it will delay time, and if it is a little slow, it is very likely that the enemy army will capture the south gate of another place in the first place.When the time comes, if you want to escape, unless you grow wings and fly out, everyone must wait for death.When Cheng Yu, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, and Cao Zhen led some people in the mansion to meet at the south city gate, Cao Xiu, who was in charge of guarding the south city gate, couldn't help but show a look of surprise when he saw a few people, and couldn't help but ask the three of them: "You should have been in the city, why did you suddenly come here, and you look like you are like this" Facing Cao Xiu's question, Cao Ren couldn't help but explain to him: "The situation is urgent, we must make a long story short, this time Han De led the army out of the city to meet the enemy, and as a result, he was ambushed by the enemy, It is estimated that all the five tigers of the Han family were killed in battle, as for the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, many of them were killed, and the others all became prisoners of the enemy.And this time the enemy army mixed in these Korean and German soldiers and horses, disguised as the defeated soldiers of our army, and successfully deceived the gate of our army, and took advantage of the situation to occupy the city, presumably at this moment is rushing here, we must retreat quickly. ”Cao Ren's words made Cao Xiu feel very incredible, in what was the matter, Cao Xiu didn't quite believe that tens of thousands of troops were defeated by the Zhao army like this, and the seemingly impregnable city was occupied by the enemy army like this, Cao Xiu said with annoyance: "How is this possible, how can Han De's tens of thousands of troops be defeated so simply." ”"In any case, this is the end of the matter, this is not the time to talk about it, we must retreat now, I am afraid it will be too late.At that time, once the enemy army attacks here, with these soldiers at the south gate, we will not be able to defend against those enemy troops at all. ”Cao Ren comforted again.Looking at the insistent appearance of the three of them, even if Cao Xiu had more questions, he would not be serious with a few people in this situation, let alone act willfully.At that time, all the soldiers above and below the city gate were ordered to gather immediately, and the city gate was opened, and everyone abandoned the city and fled together, and the target was the Cao army camp ten miles outside the city.The 20,000 soldiers and horses of Cao Wei gathered there were all gathered here by Cheng Yu, except for Han De's 80,000 soldiers and horses, just in case.As long as he has 20,000 soldiers and horses, Cheng Yu is confident that he will fight the enemy again and have a chance of victory.When Cheng Yu was escorted by several generals and a few sergeants, everyone came to the military tent ten miles outside the city.However, when Cheng Yu led everyone to come, when he arrived at the camp, he cautiously detoured in, not directly into the camp.To say, this camp tent is the camp tent of Cao Wei's army, Cheng Yu and everyone are one of the most important characters in Cao Wei, if you want to enter this camp, you can enter it openly, there is no need to do so.After seeing Cheng Yu and the others, the guards in the barracks hurriedly came out to greet them: "The little one has seen the military advisors and the generals. ”I only heard Cheng Yu ask at the sergeant: "Have the traps and triphorse ropes outside the camp tent been placed" The sergeant hurriedly replied: "Back to the military division, the small one has been ordered to place dozens of trap pits and tripping horses around the camp tent according to the instructions of the military division, and all of them have been prepared." ”Cheng Yu said again: "Very good, order all the soldiers to be ready, the enemy army is very likely to attack at any time." ”Then, Cheng Yu turned to the four generals Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Cao Zhen, and Cao Xiu on the side and said: "The enemy's general is Xiliang Ma Chao, once he captures the city, he will definitely pursue our whereabouts."
Presumably, some ambush soldiers will inform them that we are in this barracks.With Ma Chao's character, he will definitely lead a large army to attack the camp, especially when he learns that we only have 20,000 soldiers and horses, he will definitely not care about it, and want to destroy us in one fell swoop and take the entire Wuwei City. ”"This time, we will take advantage of Ma Chao's carelessness and pride to guard this camp.Most of the enemy troops are cavalry this time, and I have already arranged a lot of traps and tripping ropes around the camp, and the enemy will suffer a big loss this time when they come by assault, and when the time comes, it will be up to the generals to lead the soldiers to wait for the opportunity to go out of the camp to counterattack, and whether they can regain the reputation of our tiger and leopard cavalry depends on this move. ”Cheng Yu's words were undoubtedly a big stimulus for the four Cao generals, especially Cao Zhen and Cao Xiu.As the general of the tiger and leopard cavalry, as early as the battle of Yanzhou, the tiger and leopard cavalry was severely hit by the Zhao army's green dragon cavalry, and the successive defeats made the authority and status of the tiger and leopard cavalry suffer a great blow.Especially since Cao Pi ascended the throne of the emperor, he even wanted to reduce the number of tigers and leopards and military expenses, which made it difficult for Cao Zhen and Cao Xiu to get out of the dark time.I saw Cao Zhen and Cao Xiu taking the lead in bowing to Cheng Yu and said: "Please rest assured, we will definitely lead the tiger and leopard cavalry to defeat the enemy army, restore the dignity of our tiger and leopard cavalry, and achieve victory for our army, so that the Zhao army will no longer dare to underestimate the power of our army." ”And Cao Ren and Cao Hong were also on the side.When Ma Chao killed Cao Chun, he and Ma Dai began to lead the soldiers and horses to search all the way, and all the soldiers who encountered resistance were directly killed, but as early as when Ma Chao fought against Cao Chun, dozens of sergeants of the Xiliang Army and the Xiqiang Army led by Ma Chao went to the city to find their friendly companions, and persuaded everyone to follow the Zhao Army and follow the Shenwei General Jin Ma Chao to join forces to counterattack the Wei State.I have to say that Lu Xun's strategy is indeed very useful, and the persuasion of his companions is far better than that of Ma Chao and others who use force and sword killing.After Ma Chao and Ma Dai led the men and horses to kill, Han Wu and the others had already led many people and horses to join Ma Chao and others, and at the same time bowed to Ma Chao and said: "Report to the general, most of the soldiers in the city have all abandoned the darkness and are willing to join the command of King Zhao." ”"Very good, but why don't you see Cheng Yu and the other generals of Cao Wei, is it possible that Cao Chun is alone in this city" Ma Chao couldn't help frowning after speaking, as far as Ma Chao understood, with Cao Wei's carefulness, he would definitely not only arrange for one future to guard such a large city.One of the sergeants thought about Ma Chao and reported: "General Hui, just now the little one led the people and horses to search the city, and someone saw Cheng Yu leading several generals of the Cao army all the way to the south city gate.At this moment, the south gate of the city was wide open, and the guards at the city gate were gone, presumably those Cao Wei's people retreated to the military camp outside the city. ”"Why is there a camp tent of Cao's army outside this city" After Ma Chao heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked, if this is the case, then the south city gate must be occupied immediately, and the south city gate must be closed to prevent the enemy from counterattacking.The sergeant continued: "Cheng Yu, the military advisor of Cao Wei's army before, once asked all the 20,000 sergeants in the Cao army's headquarters to be moved to a military camp ten miles outside the city, saying that it was for precaution.Today, the general led the soldiers and horses into the city, and all the generals of Cao Wei withdrew as soon as possible. ”After listening to the other party's words, Ma Chao was slightly stunned, and hurriedly said to Ma Dai beside him: "Quickly send a sergeant to our military camp to inform Lu Xun of the news that our army has successfully occupied the city, and let him lead the army into the city."
And you are here to guard the city gates, and I will go with my men and horses to take the Cao camp outside the city. ”:
