Lu Bu's strongest strategy

Chapter 187
"My lord, I have a plan to defeat the enemy!"

Everyone turned their heads to look, and it turned out that the person who spoke was Cheng Yu.

Cao Cao was immediately overjoyed and said, "Zhongde, if you have any good ideas, please tell me quickly."

Cheng Yu suddenly sneered, "Although Zhang Xun has many soldiers and horses, he is just a mediocre talent, not worthy of a big job."

Cao Cao smiled wryly, "Zhongde, although Zhang Xun's abilities are not good, but he has a large number of soldiers and horses, our army may not be the enemy's opponent."

Cheng Yu shook his head, "My lord, the reason why I say that Zhang Xun is mediocre is absolutely not false!"

Lu Qian frowned, "Mr. Zhongde, no matter who Zhang Xun is, it won't be of any help right now?"

Cheng Yu snorted coldly, "A handsome man leads the army, whether it's arranging troops or setting up a camp, there are traces to follow and nothing will go wrong.

But how can a mediocre person like Zhang Xun know this truth. "

Speaking of this, Cheng Yu cupped his hands to Cao Cao, and said slowly, "My lord, I have sent people to inquire these past few days to find out where the food for Huainan soldiers and horses is. "

Hearing this, Cao Cao was taken aback, and Lu Qian hurriedly waved his hand, "Mr. Zhongde, even if we find out where the food is for the soldiers and horses in Huainan, the food is the most important thing. Zhang Xun will definitely send heavy troops to guard it. If our army wants to sneak attack, I'm afraid not easy."

When everyone heard the words, they nodded.

"If Zhang Jun sends heavy troops to guard the grain, those who go to sneak attack will be tantamount to throwing themselves into a trap. Not only will nothing happen, but I am afraid it will be very difficult to escape."

After hearing what everyone said, Cheng Yu suddenly sneered, "Everyone, this is why I say Zhang Xun is mediocre."

Hearing this, Cao Cao's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Zhongde, is there an opportunity?"

Cheng Yu nodded, and said slowly, "The food for Huainan soldiers and horses is at the southwest corner of the camp, and Zhang Xun's general Liang Gang led [-] soldiers and horses to guard it."

"Ten thousand soldiers and horses?"

When everyone heard this number, they shook their heads.

There are only more than 1 people left in Cao's army, and the enemy has 1 people guarding the camp. It may not be easy to sneak attack.

Lu Qian said with a wry smile, "Mr. Zhongde, although there are only 1 troops in Huainan, if we discover our army's sneak attack, it will definitely cause shocks in the camp. I am afraid that Zhang Xun's [-] troops will besiege us soon." At that time, the soldiers and horses who go to sneak attack may not be able to fly even with wings."

As soon as the words fell, Cao Ren stepped forward and cupped his hands and said, "My lord, if I can burn the food for Huainan soldiers and horses, I am willing to go and have a try."

When Cao Cao heard these words, he was immediately moved. He understood Cao Ren's thoughts.

Food is very critical. If the food of Huainan soldiers and horses can really be burned this time, the morale of Huainan soldiers and horses will definitely be in chaos.

Moreover, this was Cao Jun's only chance, so Cao Ren wanted to burn the food for Huainan soldiers and horses, so he didn't plan to come back.

When everyone heard the words, they were also inexplicably moved, and they all said loudly, "My lord, the general is willing to go."

Cao Cao was moved when he saw everyone asking for battle. He turned to look at Cheng Yu and asked slowly, "Zhongde, what do you think?"

Cheng Yu smiled slightly and waved his hands, "You don't have to be nervous, it's easy to burn the food for Huainan soldiers and horses."

Speaking of this, a trace of disdain flashed in Cheng Yu's eyes, "Besides, the generals will not be in any danger, and they can easily retreat completely."

"what?"

When everyone heard these words, they were overjoyed and asked, "Zhongde, do you have a good plan?"

Cheng Yu turned around and cupped his hands towards Cao Cao, "Master, in the southwest corner of Huainan Bingma, have you forgotten that there is a large forest?"

"forest?"

Cao Cao looked at Cheng Yu, suddenly reacted, his eyes lit up, and asked in surprise, "Zhongde, don't you think so?"

Cheng Yu nodded, "That's right, it's Huo Gong."

Speaking of this, Cheng Yu couldn't ask Cao Cao's question, and said with a sneer, "If Zhang Xun was a famous general, he would naturally not choose this place. It's a pity that he is a mediocre person, and he chose the place where the grain is stored. It's ridiculous to store it next to the woods!"

"really?"

Cao Cao couldn't believe his ears, and asked with a trembling voice, "Zhongde, are you serious?"

Cheng Yu nodded, "It's absolutely true, absolutely true!"

"Ha ha!"

After receiving an affirmative answer, Cao Cao looked up to the sky and laughed, "God helped me, haha!"

When everyone heard this, the worry in their eyes disappeared, and they couldn't help laughing.

"Mediocrity, what a mediocrity!"

"Haha, you're just a piece of trash, and you're still the commander of the first army, haha!"

Lu Qian said with a smile, "Wouldn't that be the best? If Huainan sends a famous general to lead the army, then I will have no chance to burn their food, haha."

Cao Ren stepped forward and cupped his hands, "My lord, the general is willing to lead his troops there."

Cao Cao nodded, but did not speak. He turned to look at Cheng Yu, and asked with a smile, "Zhongde, since you have thought of this plan, you must have thought of a perfect plan. How do you think the distribution of troops is the most appropriate?"

Cheng Yu cupped his hands and said solemnly, "My lord, as long as the food for Huainan soldiers and horses can be burned, since Zhang Xun sent a large army to support it.

I believe that this time is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to defeat Huainan soldiers and horses, so the whole army should come out in full force, and the outcome will be determined in one battle. "

Hearing this, Cao Cao was silent for a long time, and said slowly, "Since this is the case, I will listen to you. Tonight, we will fight with all our strength. If we win, Huainan soldiers and horses will not be a concern. Once we lose, our army will retreat to Pengcheng and not hold on. .”

"As ordered!"

……

Moon stars are rare.

The Huainan soldiers and horse camp stretched for several miles, and the bonfires in the camp were dotted like stars, illuminating the vital points.

Countless patrol teams patrolled back and forth in the camp, fearing that someone would come to attack them.

In the middle of the night, Cao Ren led a group of soldiers and horses to hide ten miles away from the southwest corner of the Huainan soldiers and horse camp, listening to the news from the spies.

"General Cao, everything in the Huainan camp remains the same, and no trace of our army has been found."

"Explore again."

When the spies left, Cao Ren turned his head to look at Lieutenant General Shi Huan, and asked in a low voice, "General Shi, how are you preparing?"

Shi Huan hastily stepped forward and cupped his hands, "General Cao, the soldiers have already got the fire starter, should we start now?"

Cao Ren looked at the looming fire in the Huainan camp in the distance, took a deep breath, and waved his hand, "General Shi, let's go."

Shi Huan nodded, turned around, and led a group of soldiers who had been prepared before quietly approaching the woods next to the Huainan Soldiers and Horses Camp.

Looking at the piles of grain, Liang Gang knew that he had a heavy responsibility, so he didn't dare to neglect it. Almost every half an hour, he would bring his soldiers to make inspections, fearing that someone would be lazy and miss a big deal.

After Liang Gang led the soldiers to patrol around, he saw that there was nothing wrong, so he returned to the tent to rest.

Not long after lying down, suddenly, hurried footsteps came from outside the camp.

"General, it's bad, there's a fire outside."

Hearing this voice, Liang Gang was startled immediately, stood up hastily, and walked towards the outside of the tent.

As soon as the door curtain was lifted, a burnt smell came over his face, and his face suddenly changed in fright, "Where is the fire!"

The soldier hurriedly cupped his hands, "In the woods!"

Liang Gang hurriedly led the soldiers towards the direction of the woods. Just as he walked around a tent, he could already see that the fire in the woods was getting bigger and bigger, and thick smoke was billowing, spreading towards the camp.

"not good!"

Liang Gang smelled the burning smell, looked at the fire in the distance, and hurriedly shouted, "Come here, put out the fire quickly."

However, if there is a fire in the woods, how could it be possible to come here.

Just as everyone was pushing water carts and running over with buckets, the fire in the woods was getting bigger and bigger, like a sea of ​​flames, burning towards this side.

Liang Gang was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he yelled hastily, "Pour water quickly, and don't let the fire come over."

The food is next to the woods. Once the fire comes, the consequences will be disastrous!
The fire was getting bigger and bigger, illuminating half of the sky, and the thick smoke was billowing, making the soldiers in the battalion cough continuously.

Seeing that the fire was about to come, the soldiers of the Huainan Army suddenly panicked, and they turned their heads and ran away without caring about putting out the fire.

Liang Gang was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, and kept roaring, but it was of no avail. In front of the fire, everyone was terrified.

Just as everyone was fleeing in all directions, suddenly, there were bursts of shouts and killings from the camp.

"Kill!"

"Ahhh!"

With the sound of shouting and killing, Cao Ren led a group of soldiers and horses to rush in.

Liang Gang was even more surprised when he saw Cao Jun coming, and hurriedly ordered his soldiers to meet the enemy.

"Don't run, quickly line up to meet the enemy."

Cao Ren knew that this battle was of great importance and he had to win, otherwise, there would be no way out. When he saw Liang Gang leading his troops to meet him, his eyes turned red and he kept roaring.

"Come to stop this general, I will kill you today!"

After shouting this sentence, Cao Ren was already like a tiger descending the mountain. He urged his horse, waved his spear, and rushed towards Liang Gang.

"kill!"

Seeing Cao Ren's ferocious approach, Liang Gang felt timid and wanted to retreat, but the enemy rushed over, so he had to make a move no matter what, and it would not be too late to retreat.

Cao Ren's martial arts is very high, it can be counted among the entire Cao Ying, and now he is fighting with all his strength, almost using his skills, and the spear in his hand stabs out like lightning.

Liang Gang looked at Cao Ren's red eyes, and felt even more chilled in his heart. He hurriedly raised the spear in his hand to brace the opponent's weapon, and at the same time urged the horse, wanting to charge the horse and rush over, but did not come back.

Cao Ren gritted his teeth and let out a cold snort. While the two horses were staggering, he turned around and shot Liang Gang directly in the back.

"what!"

Liang Gang screamed in pain, and before he could take any further action, he felt his body suddenly lightened, and he was lifted up by Cao Ren's gun.

"kill!"

Like an angry tiger, Cao Ren directly provoked Liang Gang and shouted, "Who dares to fight if the leader of the bandits is the leader?"

The soldiers of the Huainan army who had rushed over wanted to block Cao Ren, but when they saw that the general had been provoked, their expressions of fright changed, and they turned and ran away.

"It's not good, General Liang was killed."

"Let's run, General Liang has been picked."

The soldiers and horses in Huainan were attacked by surprise, and the morale of the army had already begun to be chaotic. Coupled with Liang Gang's death in battle, no one dared to fight again, and fled in all directions.

Cao Ren led his troops to charge all the way, and the Huainan soldiers and horses immediately retreated steadily, causing chaos!
……

Standing in front of the tent, Zhang Xun looked at the blazing fire in the distance, and besides anger, there was also a hint of panic in his eyes.

When storing the grain, Zhang Xun didn't think much about it.

Hundreds of thousands of troops set up camp outside Pengcheng. The area was so large that by the time the supplies arrived, only this area was left in the southwest corner.

At the beginning, someone suggested that the grain should be stored far away to avoid the forest, but some people objected. If the grain is stored too far away, it is easy to be attacked by the enemy.

Considering that Cao Cao's soldiers and horses had been scared and hid aside and dared not come out, Zhang Xun believed that Cao Cao would never dare to send troops out to attack, so the matter was settled like this.

But I never thought that Cao Cao really sent troops to attack and burn the food!

Finished!

As a veteran in the battlefield, I know the importance of food. Once there is a shortage of food, the consequences will be disastrous!

There are 9 people here. If there is no food, are they willing to go hungry?
Thinking of these consequences, Zhang Xun was sweating profusely and yelled loudly.

"The whole army obeys the order, drive Cao Jun out quickly, and go to fight the fire."

At this time, the soldiers of the Huainan Army saw that the food was on fire, and they knew it was not good, so they rushed towards the direction of the fire.

All the generals led their soldiers and horses, and rushed towards the direction of shouting to kill.

When the Huainan army camp was in chaos, suddenly, a group of soldiers and horses rushed in from the side of the camp. The leader was Xu Chu, and the sword in his hand was flying up and down in the crowd. The soldiers of the army fell to the ground one after another.

"Kill!"

"Ahhh!"

The Huainan army camp was already in chaos, and Xu Chu and the others were so brave that they couldn't stop them for a while and were rushed into the camp.

Xu Chu kept yelling, and led the soldiers straight to the direction of the Chinese army's big tent.

When Zhang Xun heard the shouts of killing coming from behind, he secretly screamed in his heart that it was not good.

The camp is in chaos, and the generals have brought their elites to fight the fire, who should be sent to meet the enemy.

Zhang Xun's general Li She led a group of soldiers and horses to rush out from the side and said loudly, "General Zhang, I will lead you to stop them."

Zhang Xun nodded, "General Li, you have to be careful."

Li She cupped his hands and rushed towards the place where the shouts of killing were loud with his soldiers and horses.

Before he had rushed far, he saw a strong man with a big knife in his hand, rushing towards this side.

Li She immediately yelled, "Dog thief, you dare to attack the camp and let you taste the general's spear."

When Xu Chu saw someone blocking the way, he immediately became furious, "A clown dares to block my way, get out of here!"

Without saying a word, Li She urged his horse to rush forward, and thrust out the spear with all his strength, heading straight for Xu Chu's throat.

Xu Chu laughed loudly, and slashed at the barrel of the gun that Li She stabbed at.

"Go away!"

The spear in Li She's hand was shaken away, his hands were already numb, and he was horrified. Seeing the opponent's sword slashing towards him, he hurriedly dodged to dodge, but was slashed on the horse's back by Xu Chu's sword.

The horse screamed and fell to the ground. Li She also fell to the ground with the horse. Before he got up, the knife flashed in front of his eyes, and Xu Chu's big knife had already slashed in front of him. The next moment, he disappeared.
