War horses neighed, and the night was dark and the wind was high The cool breeze around the trees blew on the leaves, giving birth to the sound of salsa, and the branches of the trees swayed, as if countless demons and monsters were showing their teeth and claws Cao Zhen poured himself a sip of water and shook his head violently, which can be regarded as removing a trace of sleepiness in his brain He turned around and glanced at the team behind him, there was silence, and there was really no morale at all Such an army, if it encounters Liu Bei's small army, it will immediately turn into a jar of scattered sand, and the trees will fall and scatter Cao Zhen breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, fortunately, the road was smooth sailing, and he didn't encounter any turmoil.
Cao Zhen gritted his teeth, his fists were clenched very tightly, and his eyes flashed with a strange light even in the dark night Cao Zhen is not the first time to go on an expedition, in fact, when he was very young, he followed Cao Cao on the expedition, and his experience may not be as good as Xiahoudun, but his views on the military division are not inferior to Xiahoudun at all.
It must be known that after the death of the first generation, Cao Zhenke took the elite of Wei and fought with Zhuge Liang three in and three out, and even had an advantage In Cao Zhen's eyes, this battle has not been lost As long as Fancheng is not lost, this vanguard army still has an advantage over Liu Bei, as long as Fancheng is kept, even if he has no credit, he will not be blamed too badly.
As long as Fancheng is not lost But Fancheng has been lost Liu Bei went to attack the camp, but there were only 10,000 people, led by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, otherwise if all the people went to sneak attack, then even if he Cao Zhen could break through, it would be impossible for him to have so many people left.
The reason is that he took this force and went to attack Fancheng Cao Jun lost Fancheng, the depth was shortened by dozens of miles, and the front line changed from Xinye to Fancheng for a while Liu Bei had more respite and even more options At this time, can I not withdraw?
The bridgehead of the Cao army changed from Fancheng to Wancheng for a while, and the blow to Cao Cao was not small Cao Zhen looked at the banner of Liu Zi in the bonfire with a blue face, and hated Liu Bei to death in his heart "General, what should I do?"
Cao Zhen looked back, and his eyes were all decadent The army of 40,000 was reduced to 4,000, and even Fancheng not long ago was lost, so it stands to reason that he Cao Zhen should cut himself But he didn't There is no way to kill me, father I want to make meritorious deeds "Everyone" Cao Zhen's eyes were like hooks, looking at the army under him "Fancheng has been lost, General Fubo's life and death are uncertain, now, what should we do?"
The officers in the audience glanced at each other, but a Qu lieutenant stood up.
"General, at this moment, the soldiers are a tired army, Fancheng, cannot be taken, and even we have to guard against Liu Bei's actions, the top priority is to withdraw to Wancheng" Withdraw to Wancheng It's no different from suicide So immediately, a person rushed up and said in a deep voice: "Captain Wu Qu's words are wrong, we are a tired division, but if we withdraw from Wancheng from this, what should happen to General Fubo's life?"
Everyone was silent, and they all heard the voice of this man.
In fact, he didn't worry much about Xiahoudun's life and death, the so-called General Fubo, if he died, he would die, what did he have to do with me, what did they really dare not dare to return to Wancheng, naturally they were afraid of being questioned.
The general of the defeated army, even if Cao Cao opens the net and does not punish you, but this defeat will accompany you for life, and even you will never have the opportunity to be promoted For these people who lick blood at the knife edge, there is no chance of promotion, what is the use of me killing people Therefore, it is absolutely not advisable to return directly to Wancheng However, if they don't return to Wancheng, then what can they do.
Attack the city of Fan Don't make trouble, Liu Bei has tens of thousands of people in Fancheng, you go to beat him, what's the difference between sending him to death But if you don't attack Fancheng, where can you hide 4,000 people in this new wild mountain forest What's more, after the war, Liu Bei will definitely lead people to search the mountains, and these 4,000 people will be regarded as turtles in the urn Since you can't fight, and you can't dodge, why stay here?
The generals bowed their heads, and everyone began to make their own calculations.
"Ladies and gentlemen" Cao Zhen's voice was raised, which immediately attracted the attention of the generals in the field.
"Attacking Fancheng is naturally not undesirable, but you might as well think about others." other These three-five-six rough men glanced at each other, with confusion in their eyes.
"Don't sell the general, if the general has a plan, you might as well say it" Cao Zhen patted the tree trunk beside him, and his eyes looked at everyone with some meaning.
"You are terrible to death" afraid Wu Quwei touched his head and said with a smile: "The general said that he was joking, where are people who are not afraid of death, aren't you talking nonsense?"
Cao Zhen did not point his gaze at this martial lieutenant, but looked at the generals on the field.
"What about you?"
They glanced at each other, and had no choice but to give up their hands and say, "The last general is not afraid of death" "Good" Cao Zhen stood up and saluted the captains first.
"Cao Zhen's foolish opinion is not to retreat but to advance" Don't retreat, move forward The school officials looked at each other, and they all saw the stunned in each other's eyes "What is the need not to retreat but to advance?"
Cao Zhen smiled proudly, folded a branch casually, and drew it on the ground.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this place is Fancheng, this place is Xinye, and this place is our camp."
The generals calmed down, knowing that there was still something to come.
"Where we are now, two or three miles away from Fancheng, only a dozen miles away from the camp, and twenty miles away from Xinye, if we turn back halfway, what will happen if we hit Liu Beijun?"
The generals' eyes lit up, and they already understood what Cao Zhen meant "Liu Beijun is in the midst of a big victory, and he would never have thought that we would not return to Wancheng and come back to the horse pistol, but the general is like this" Cao Zhen smiled, looked at the person who spoke with appreciation, and continued: "Of course, what's even better is that as long as we disperse those camp defenders, we will have at least 10,000 people, and then we can take the opportunity to occupy Xinye."
Wars are generally killed and surrendered, so the Cao army rushed out of the battle and rushed out of a few thousand people, but those who did not rush out were afraid that there were more than 10,000 people As long as you can save these 10,000 people and capture Xinye, which is lax in defense, it will naturally not be difficult Wu Quwei looked at Cao Zhen with a complicated face, but he admired him more, he could get along with him so well when he was so down, and he was worthy of being the leader of the tiger and leopard ride "So what should I do?"
The school officials looked at Cao Zhen, and they already regarded him as the coach in their minds "How to do it" Cao Zhen smiled coldly, but immediately gave orders.
"Brothers, take a break for a while, have a dinner, and after you have enough energy, you will follow Cao Zhen and charge into battle."
"Oh" the generals commanded In a few moments, the four thousand people who had finished resting began to turn into a dormant poisonous snake, parading in the darkness of the night, about to deal a fatal blow:
