The First Military Division of the Three Kingdoms

"In this way, one part of his army can be left to surround Xi'an, and the other part can surprise Linzi. Linzi has only [-] soldiers and horses. How can it hold Cao Cao's tens of thousands of troops and attack the city?"

Cao Cao has an army of 25. Although there are [-] that Cao Cao can't command, Xu Rong is a famous general in history. With a little cooperation, Cao Cao still knows it. After all, they haven't wiped out Liu Bei.

The most important thing is that Chen Ziming did not underestimate Cao Cao and his advisers at all, and Xi Zhicai and Chen Yuke beside Cao Cao are top advisers. After a long time, he will definitely doubt the movements of Liu Bei's army, and then guess Liu Bei's army has left, and their road to Linzi has been unimpeded.

"Well, it should be so."

"Come here, send an order to Xu Shu in Dongping Mausoleum..."

Liu Bei immediately dispatched troops to eliminate them.

. . . . . . . . . . .

At this time, outside the city of Xi'an, in the camp of Cao Cao's army, the two were looking at the city of Xi'an from a distance.

"Zhang Liao is really a good general, and his ability to defend the city is so amazing."

Cheng Yu looked at the city of Xi'an where Cao Cao's army was still onslaught, the big flag above the city wall was waving in the wind, and the city was full of corpses, it was extremely miserable.

"My lord's army has stormed this city for ten days, and lost more than [-] soldiers and horses. It is difficult to get down from this city. Zhang Liao's ability is rare in this world."

Xi Zhicai also admired Zhang Liao's ability very much. Although there were [-] troops in the city, there were more on Cao Cao's side, and the generals were more fierce. And his martial arts are not inferior to these four.

Cao Cao's army took turns to attack the city, and did not give Zhang Liao a chance to recuperate. Zhang Liao's troops were exhausted and exhausted. If he hadn't had [-] troops and was able to defend the city instead, Xi'an would have been taken by Cao Cao long ago. .

"Zhicai seems to have other ideas?"

Cheng Yu saw that although Xi Zhicai was looking at Xi'an City in the distance, he was expressionless, and he knew that Xi Zhicai's heart was not on Xi'an City at all.

"Zhongde, what I'm thinking of is Liu Bei and his [-]-strong army."

Xi Zhicai did not hide from Chen Yu either, he knew that Cheng Yu's talent was not inferior to his.

"Well, it will take ten days for the lord's army to attack the city, how can Liu Bei sit still, shouldn't he?"

Cheng Yu also thought of Liu Bei's abnormal situation.

Chapter 73 Soldiers sent to Linzi

"The only possibility is that the soldiers and horses are already out, we don't know!"

Xi Zhicai added.

"However, the pioneers drove the scouts and sealed off the surrounding area, and the soldiers and horses moved quietly behind, without knowing their whereabouts."

Cheng Yu immediately followed Xi Zhicai's pace.

After hearing Cheng Yu's words, Xi Zhicai began to think, and then said:

"It is absolutely impossible for its army to come here, so there should be another place to go. But where can it go? Plains? Jinan? Or, Le'an? Le'an!"

Cheng Yu was also shocked immediately: "Wen Chou's army!"

"Not good, we have fallen for the trick, and quickly report to the lord!"

Xi Zhicai also knew the seriousness of the matter, if it was as he and Cheng Yu thought, then the matter would be serious.

After Cao Cao heard Cheng Yu and Xi Zhicai's conjecture, he hastily reconfirmed:

"The words of Zhicai, should you be sure?"

"This is the only way to understand the movement of Liu Bei's army. This decision is Chen Ziming's plan. It is very bold, but it is indeed very clever. First, break Wen Chou's [-] troops, gather Le'an Zhang Fei's troops in Jinan County, and use Lu Bu, Yan Liang's wisdom will definitely be broken by Chen Ziming, if he does not expect it, he will be able to retreat from the army of Lu Bu and Yan Liang."

"Then gather all the soldiers and horses to fight with the lord. In this way, the lord will face Liu Bei's hundreds of thousands of troops alone, and the outcome is unpredictable."

Xi Zhicai finally guessed Chen Ziming's plan, but unfortunately now Wen Chou's army has been wiped out, and the next target is already in Chen Ziming's calculations, Cao Cao's best opportunity to attack Linzi has been lost.

"Chen Ziming is really a great talent. He used such a trick to deceive the world, but now that we know the trick, we should be able to break it."

Cheng Yu couldn't help but admire Chen Ziming, if it was what they thought, they would concentrate their troops and destroy all the armies one by one, such a predicament would bring Liu Bei back to life, and he dared to leave Xi'an alone, not even leaving the road from Xi'an to Linzi A little military defense.

"Very good! Send an order, Ming Jin withdraws troops, and discusses matters in the big tent."

Immediately, Cao Cao made his own decision. He is very talented. He only needs a little advice from others to know what to do, which Liu Bei can't catch up with.

After all the generals and advisers arrived, Cao Cao began to give orders.

"Zhongde, go to Xu Rong's camp immediately and ask him to lead his troops to take over from our army and trap the city of Xi'an to death. There is no need to attack the city. After I lead the army to destroy Liu Bei, the Xi'an defenders will surrender."

"If!" Cheng Yu immediately took orders and went to Xu Rong's camp.

Cao Cao then ordered: "Zihe, you will lead the army and horses of the headquarters, and be responsible for the dispatch of food and grass for the army, so there must be no loss."

"If!" General Cao Chun immediately took the order.

"Zixiao, you lead [-] troops, and go to Guangxian immediately. There are no soldiers and horses stationed in the city, so take it quickly." Cao Cao then ordered General Cao Ren to occupy Guangxian.

"If!" General Cao Ren received the order and left.

"The rest of the people follow my troops to Linzi!" How could Cao Cao miss such a good opportunity, Linzi has hoarded all the food and grass needed by Liu Bei's army, and if it occupies there, Liu Bei's army will be finished.

Therefore, both Xi Zhicai and Cheng Yu suggested that Linzi be occupied first, and then lead the army to deal with Liu Bei's army. It would be much easier at that time.

Linzi is occupied, there is no food and grass, the morale of Liu Bei's army is bound to lose, no matter how many soldiers and horses there are, it is useless.

Just as Chen Ziming thought, Xu Rong's army obeyed Cao Cao's request and quickly took over Cao Cao's army to besiege Xi'an City, and surrounded them on all sides, without giving the soldiers and horses in Xi'an a chance to come out.

Zhang Liao was taken aback when Xu Rong's army appeared under the city of Xi'an. He had not heard from Liu Bei for a long time and had no idea that Dong Zhuo had also sent an army to attack Qingzhou.

He knew Xu Rong well, and these 15 soldiers and horses were no joke, and their combat effectiveness was not inferior to Cao Cao's [-] troops.

"My lord is dangerous!"

Of course Zhang Liao could think of what Cao Cao's army was going to do, but he had no choice at all. Now there are only more than 4 horses in the city, and most of them are wounded, very tired, and have little fighting power at all.

Such an army could not break out of the blockade of Xu Rong's army outside Xi'an City, but the only good news was that Xi'an City was temporarily saved, because Xu Rong's army only besieged the city and had no intention of attacking Xi'an City at all.

It's a pity that there is no point in defending Xi'an now. His small number of troops can't pose any threat to Cao Cao's rear. Unless the [-] troops outside the city retreat, he can lead the army to cut off Cao Cao's food supply, but is it possible? Rong is not a fierce man like Lu Bu, he knows what to do and what not to do.

"Report!"

"Xi'an scouts report urgently. Two days ago, Xu Rong's army of [-] besieged Xi'an City, and Cao Cao's army went to Guang County."

Chen Gong, who was dealing with official documents, raised his head after hearing the scout's urgent report, his eyes flashed brightly, and he said to himself: "Is it finally here? Let me meet this thief."

Chen Gong and Cao Cao had known each other for a long time, but it was a pity that Chen Gong later saw Cao Cao's cruelty, and knew that Cao Cao was not a kind person, but a traitor.

Like fate, now that Chen Gong guards the isolated city and Cao Cao's army comes to attack, will the result still be the same as in history, the city will be destroyed and the palace will perish.
