"Puyang City originally had ten thousand defenders."
After Ma Chao stretched out one finger, he stretched out three fingers and said, "Now, Li Dian has brought back three thousand soldiers and horses."
Then Ma Chao stretched out his fingers again.
He held out five fingers and continued: "As you saw just now, Xia Houyuan also brought five thousand soldiers and horses."
"There are almost 20,000 soldiers and horses in Puyang City now."
Looking at the three people who looked extremely unwilling, Ma Chao had no choice but to continue explaining: "With our current less than 5,000 tired soldiers, the number of people who went to attack was four of us.
Times, and Puyang has a high city and thick walls, do you think this is possible?"
"It's possible" As soon as these words came out, Ma Chao was really shocked.
He suddenly raised his head and saw Gan Ning and Shan Dan looking at Lu Qiling in surprise.
Then, he also looked at Lu Qiling with admiration.
Being looked at by three people like this, Lu Qiling couldn't help but feel embarrassed, and said coquettishly: "Husband, don't you know how to use tricks?
Just like this time, we will trick Xiahou Dun out, and then take advantage of the opportunity to seize Puyang City."
For Lu Qiling's blind admiration, Ma Chao could only respond with a helpless smile: This girl really thinks highly of herself.
No matter how wise and wise he is, he used five thousand troops to conquer Puyang City with 20,000 troops, which is basically equivalent to There is a legend that North Korean leaders stoned an American satellite.
Even Zhuge Liang went out to Qishan six times and returned without success.
This joke was so cold that Ma Chao was not in the mood to laugh at all What's more, at this time, Zhuge Liang was still just a teenager.
Whether you know how to arrange your troops or not is another matter.
"Lord," Shan Dan also felt the embarrassment of the atmosphere at this time, and couldn't help but want to ease the atmosphere and said: "Then before you vowed to let Li Dian go back and tell Xiahou Dun the news that we were going to attack Puyang, was it just to make Puyang City collapse without a fight?
" "That's the meaning, but," at this point, Ma Chao had already stood up, arranging his weapons and clothes, and said, "The main purpose is to let Xiahou Dun put all his thoughts on the defense of Puyang City. , in this way” "We can retreat calmly," Gan Ning added, unable to help but admire Ma Chao's thoughtfulness even more.
However, after thinking about this, Gan Ning couldn't help but say: "Then why did my lord want to make a dangerous move and attack Puyang by surprise?"
Ma Chao paused after hearing this, and after taking a closer look at Gan Ning, he spread the military map he had packed in his hands in front of the three of them, pointed at the Puyang icon, and said solemnly: "Because it is very important."
Gan Ning was stunned for a moment, and then he understood the meaning of Ma Chao's instructions.
He cupped his fists and said gratefully, "My lord, please give me your instructions.
Gan Ning will bow down and listen."
"Look," Ma Chao circled the entire Yanzhou with his hands, then returned to Puyang City and said, "At that time, Fengxian Gong and Chen Gong started an uprising and gathered the soldiers and horses of Chen Liu and Dongjun.
The march started from Dongjun, intending to Sweeping across Yanzhou.
There is a straight line from west to east between Dongjun and Dongping Kingdom.
This straight line connects the three cities of Puyang, Juancheng and Fanxian.
At the same time, this line is also the lifeblood of the entire Cao family."
"Although Feng Xianggong and Chen Gong are not as cunning as Cao Cao, their strategic military situation is very accurate.
Especially the strategic move of stationing troops in Puyang at the beginning strangled Cao's throat."
With that said, Ma Chao had already entered the state, looked at the Puyang icon carefully, and continued to explain to the three people: "Next to Puyang City is Zhang Miao's base camp, Chenliu County, and to the north is the border with Jizhou, which belongs to Yuan Shao's sphere of influence.
Not to mention the south, It is Jiyin County under Lu Bu's rule.
In this way, the entire Puyang City is the bridgehead against Cao Cao."
"Moreover, Puyang City is surrounded by thousands of miles of wilderness, so even if Cao Cao comes, he can only station all his troops in Juancheng to the east of Puyang to confront Fengxian Gong, and cannot form an encirclement.
Moreover, Puyang has always been a battle between military strategists for territory and the city.
The strong pond is deep, and as long as you hold on to Puyang and wait for work, as time goes by, Cao Cao's army will lose its morale and food supplies, and it will naturally collapse without attacking. " "In other words, although Fengxian Gong failed to attack at the beginning, he already had an advantage by stationing troops in Puyang.
As a result, no matter how Cao Cao used his plan, Fengxian Gong and Chen Gong could easily defeat it.
The entire Yanzhou, if compared to a game of chess, Bureau, Dong'a, Fan County, and Zhencheng are the three formation eyes, and Puyang is the formation eye among the formation eyes, a veritable strategic location."
After saying this in one breath, Gan Ning, Qu Dan, and Lu Qiling suddenly understood.
Looking at the usually boring and flat maps, it seemed as if they suddenly came to life, vividly describing the strategic significance and geographical points of their existence.
Gan Ning, who had the most military acumen and extraordinary understanding, after hearing what Ma Chao said, his expression changed and he spoke openly: "In this way, my lord sent a surprise army into Dongjun to capture Puyang City.
He wanted to join forces with Duke Fengxian to attack Cao Cao from the north and the south.
If this plan is successful, Cao Cao will be surrounded on all sides, leaving Cao Cao empty.
I have three formation eyes but I can't use them, so I've become a turtle in a jar."

"Yes, that's right."
Ma Chao nodded and admitted, but then he put away the glare in his eyes, put away the map in frustration again, and said, "Unfortunately, God did not help Fengxian Gong and the Ma family.
Earlier, natural disasters caused Fengxian to die one after another.
The Duke had no choice but to withdraw from Puyang, and now Cao Cao has seen through my plan, so we can only return without success."
"Now that things have happened, we can only watch helplessly as Cao Cao takes advantage and cannibalizes Yanzhou."
Lu Qiling said sadly after hearing Gan Ning and Ma Chao analyze the situation in Yanzhou.
Ma Chao looked at Lu Qiling and sighed, then took the initiative to walk to her, lifted her up and said, "Ling'er, I know that after you entered Yanzhou, all your thoughts were focused on Feng Xiangong and the Lu family.
But the Yanzhou incident is already the end of a struggle between dragon and tiger.
Both Cao Cao and Duke Fengxian are exhausted and fighting fiercely, but I have tried my best."
"No."
After hearing Ma Chao's pessimistic judgment, Lu Qiling seemed to be stimulated.
She grabbed Ma Chao's arm and said, "Husband, you are a victorious general.
You have never suffered a defeat since you went to war.
The situation in front of you, You must have a way, right?"
"I do still have a way, but" Ma Chao's expression turned pale as he saw Lu Qiling going crazy.
He shook off Lu Qiling's hands and said, "But I don't know why you are so eager to let Feng Xiangong defeat Cao Cao. , occupied Yanzhou" As soon as these words came out, the air in the whole room immediately froze.
Even though Lu Qiling no longer has a nose for politicians, she is still aware of Ma Chao's concern for her.
For a moment, Lu Qiling didn't have time to think, and said: "My father was a hero, and it took a lot of effort to establish Yanzhou.
It is the time for the world to realize its great ambitions, how can it be blocked by Cao Cao?
Then my father’s hard work of more than 20 years was destroyed in one day.”
"You really have such an idea."
Ma Chao's face couldn't help but become more sinister after hearing this.
He took a step forward, stared at Lu Qiling's face, leaned against her ear, and asked in a ferocious voice: "Then you have changed over the past year, how can you still do it?"
Could it be that all the joy we had in the past few days was just to get the Ma family to help your Lu family?"
"This" Lu Qiling was stunned.
She seemed to be struck by lightning when she heard this, and almost fell down: As Ma Chao said, this kind of secret buried in her heart did exist.
But whenever she thinks about this, the complicated conspiracy in Lu Qiling's heart eventually turns into deep guilt and remorse.
However, under the paranoid teachings of the warrior Lu Bu, she knew she was wrong, but still moved forward step by step with a heavy heart of regret.
"I'm hesitant."
Ma Chao looked at Lu Qiling's deep thought.
A flash of pain appeared on his handsome face, and then he said decisively: "I understand what you mean.
Very good.
Next, I know what to do." s: I saw today’s reward number again, and I shed tears to thank Brother Chou, Hangugu, and Young Master Feng.
Mr.

I won’t go out today, tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow.
