After being abandoned by Liu Bei, Cao Cao begged me to be a military adviser

Early the next morning, Cao Cao personally led [-] elite soldiers out of Jingzhou and then into Nanzhong.

Three days later, Cao Ren led an army of [-] troops into Yulin County.

Then they set up camp thirty miles outside Yulin City.

On the one hand, Cao Ren ordered people to write a letter to persuade Liu Bei to surrender, and on the other hand, he went to Jiangdong to invite Lu Xun to attack Liu Bei.

Since Lu Meng was seized power, the power of the Jiangdong Army has been in the hands of the deputy governor Lu Xun.

After discussing with Bu Zhi, Lu Xun personally led [-] soldiers and horses into Yulin City.

The pressure quickly came to Liu Bei.

Cao Jun and Jiangdong Army jointly attacked Yulin City, and that was a full 15 troops!

"Cao Cao's army came to attack, and Jiangdong is helping the tyrant, what should our army do?" Liu Bei looked at Fazheng and Zhuge Liang eagerly.

After Lu Meng was transferred away, Liu Bei breathed a sigh of relief.

It is thought that Jiangdong will not move any more, and the structure of Jiaozhou has been determined.

Unexpectedly, Sun Quan, unwilling to give away half of Jiaozhou, invited Cao Cao to send troops.

This also confirmed Zhuge Liang's speculation before.

Fazheng turned his head to look at Zhuge Liang: "What's the best opinion of Military Advisor Kong Ming?"

Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan in his hand: "I don't dare to think high, it's just that Cao Jun's menacing approach is really frightening!"

Liu Bei was in a hurry: "The military adviser can speak up if he has something to say!"

Zhuge Liang shook his head: "The situation is unclear, don't dare to talk nonsense!"

Liu Bei was puzzled: "Is the current situation still unclear?"

"Yes!" Fazheng looked at Zhuge Liang in confusion.

Zhuge Liang said: "The reason why Liu Xian and Cao Cao are like-minded is because they hate the lord. Now that there is such a good opportunity, the two will never miss it!"

"I understand!" Liu Bei said: "The military adviser is afraid that Cao Cao and Liu Xian will be in the dark!"

"Yes!" Zhuge Liang nodded: "It's easy to hide a sharp spear, but it's hard to defend against a hidden arrow. I suggest immediately..."

Zhang Fei interrupted suddenly: "Abandon Yulin City immediately and retreat to Hepu County?"

Zhuge Liangliang nodded: "Yide's words are exactly what I want!"

"Fart!" Zhang Fei waved his hand: "Every inch of land in Jiaozhou is bought by the soldiers with their lives. Now that the battle is over and they are going to retreat, isn't the blood of the soldiers wasted?"

Ma Dai also said: "Soldiers will block the water and cover it with earth. Our army may not be able to fight Cao Ren!"

Liu Bei turned to look at Zhuge Liang.

"Hey!" Zhuge Liang let out a long sigh.

Obviously, the generals did not agree with his strategy, and even looked forward to a battle with Cao Jun.

This is what Zhuge Liang is most worried about.

Chapter 368

Liu Bei said: "Military Master, can you defeat the enemy quickly and then retreat?"

Fazheng immediately said: "My lord, you can pretend to attack Cao's army and take the opportunity to surprise the Jiangdong army. Then Cao's army will definitely be alone!"

Liu Bei turned his head to look at Zhuge Liang, asking for his opinion.

"Yeah!" Zhuge nodded slightly, agreeing to the matter.

The specific deployment is still in charge of Zhuge Liang.

Early the next morning, Fa Zheng, Ma Dai led 3 soldiers and horses pretending to be [-] horses out of the city to set up camp.

Zhang Fei's banner was held high in the camp, and he was ready to fight Cao Jun.

The news spread to Cao Jun's camp, and Cao Ren called the generals to discuss together.

"Zhang Fei led 3 troops to camp outside the city. Which general is willing to fight?"

The Xiahou brothers looked at each other, and then looked at Cao Hong and Xu Huang.

Cao Hong and Xu Huang didn't express their opinions, and looked at Pang Tong, the supervisor.

Although Zhang Fei didn't have many troops, he was a tricky guy.

He may not be able to win in a frontal battle, but if he besieges Zhang Fei, he may run too fast and fail to catch up.

Zhang Fei is not easy to fight, and it is easy to be in vain.

Cao Ren asked Pang Tong, "What advice does the military advisor have?"

Pang Tong shook the feather fan in his hand, and said bluntly: "My suggestion is, you can't stick to it!"

Xiahou Dun immediately questioned Pang Tong: "What kind of suggestion is this? The king of Wei asked us to attack Yulin City, but now we can't hold on. What's the reason?"

"That's right!" Cao Hong also questioned Pang Tong.

Pang Tong said: "The king of Wei ordered me to come here. One is to attack Liu Bei with Jiangdong, and the other is to support the Wei king's light soldiers to cover Liu Bei's rear! If we win at this time, Liu Bei retreats early, and nothing will happen!"

"The military adviser is right!" Xia Houyuan nodded.

Pang Tong also said: "Our army has just come here, and we haven't communicated with Jiangdong's army in depth. Instead of feigning defeat by Zhang Fei, it is better to hold on for the time being and wait until the situation stabilizes, and then choose an opportunity to send troops!"

"Military advice!" Xu Huang immediately clasped his fists as a gesture.

Xiahou Dun immediately changed his words: "I agree with the military division's suggestion!"

"I agree!" Several other generals also nodded.

Based on the principle of the minority obeying the majority, the chief general Cao Ren followed the strategy of the supervisor Pang Tong and could not hold out.

The news quickly spread to Liu Jun's camp.

Fazheng and Ma Dai were playing Zhang Fei's banner in vain, but they breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the enemy couldn't defend themselves.

Fazheng immediately wrote back to report the matter to Liu Bei.

Liu Bei was very puzzled when he got the letter, so he hurriedly asked Zhuge Liang.

"Military division, Cao's army has one hundred thousand soldiers and horses in hand, and they are currently stationed thirty miles outside Yulin City, why don't they dare to attack our army?"

Zhuge Liang said: "Cao Jun and these generals are all good people. They don't want to do things that don't thank you for their efforts. If they fight cheap battles, they will definitely be crushed."

"Haha!" Liu Bei laughed, and immediately understood what Zhuge Liang meant.

Although Liu Bei is very down and out today, Zhang Fei is still the face of the army.

Zhuge Liang said again: "Our army set up a big camp in vain, and Yide is not in the camp. After all, we can't hide it from Cao Jun!"

Liu Bei said, "What advice does the military advisor have?"

Zhuge Liang said: "Cao's army is stationed thirty miles to the north of the city, and Jiangdong's army is stationed thirty miles to the east of the city. The two armies are together for more than a hundred miles, and it is difficult to fight together. Our army should send troops tonight and quickly defeat the Jiangdong army!"

"Okay!" Liu Bei nodded heavily.

At three o'clock that night, Liu Bei, Zhang Fei, and Zhuge Liang secretly left Yulin City with [-] troops and headed straight for Jiangdong Camp.

At this time, the Jiangdong army camp was peaceful.

However, Lu Xun, the deputy governor in the big tent of the Chinese army, was discussing countermeasures with Bu Zhi.

Liu Bei was able to capture several counties in Jiaozhou in a short period of time, relying on winning people's hearts.

Of course, Lu Meng's lord is indispensable here.

Now, the Jiangdong Army is made by Lu Xun, and its attitude towards Jiaozhou has also undergone a 180-degree turn.

Lu Xun first sent Bu Zhi to appease the civil and military forces of the remaining counties in Jiaozhou. Those who should be promoted should be promoted, and those who should be rewarded should be rewarded.

Never allow the same rebellion to happen a second time.

"Old General, Liu Bei sent Zhang Fei to fight against Cao Jun, and our Jiangdong Army can withdraw to take Hepu County at this time!"

"That's exactly what I mean!" Bu Zhi said, "The prefect of Hepu County has an old relationship with me, if he understands it with emotion and reason, he can take Hepu County without bloodshed!"

Lu Xun said: "Tomorrow morning, the old general will leave the camp with [-] soldiers and horses, and I will take care of this place!"

"Excuse me, Chief Superintendent!" Bu Zhi waved his hands.

At dawn, Bu Zhi led his troops out of the camp.

Coincidentally, Bu Zhi, who sent troops to Hepu County, and Liu Bei, who came to attack the camp, ran into each other.

The two pioneers fought each other.

Liu Bei hurried to Zhuge Liang to discuss countermeasures.

Zhuge Liang said: "My lord, at this point, we can only change our strategy and fight for reinforcements. You can order Yide to lead 1 horses and horses to fight against the stallion, and my lord to lead [-] soldiers and horses to wait for the reinforcements from Jiangdong!"

"Good!" Liu Bei nodded.

Immediately ordered Zhang Fei to go out to fight.

"Brothers, follow me and kill Bu Zhi!" Zhang Fei roared and charged, and the soldiers under his command kept shouting and killing.

A sudden encounter started unexpectedly.

Bu Zhi already had few soldiers, which was a disadvantage.

None of his subordinates were as brave as Zhang Fei, and he was killed by Zhang Fei within half an hour of the battle.

And Bu Zhi himself was chased by Zhang Fei and fled around.

Fortunately, Bu Zhi's subordinates ran back to the camp to report the incident to Lu Xun.

Pan Zhang, Ling Tong, Dong Xi, Jiang Qin and other generals asked for orders to save Bu Zhi.

But Lu Xun was extremely calm and had no intention of sending troops.

Pan Zhang was in a hurry: "Commander, old general Bu Zhi is being surrounded by the enemy, why don't you send troops to help at this time?"

Lu Xun said: "Old General Buzhi sent troops to Hepu County was a temporary decision made by me and him. Zhang Fei would never have known it! The two armies were fighting an encounter, which means that Zhang Fei's original purpose was to rob the camp!"

As soon as this remark came out, several generals changed their expressions.

Lu Xun continued: "The appearance of Zhang Fei here means that Cao Jun is facing an ambush. This means that Liu Bei wants to defeat our Jiangdong Army first. This strategy must have come from Zhuge Liang, and these two must be in the army!"

Ling Tong asked, "Is Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang also here?"

Lu Xun said again: "If Liu Bei dares to rob the camp, he will come out with all his strength. The old general Buzhi is still fighting Liu Bei. This shows that Liu Bei is fighting for help. Whoever goes to save Buzhi, he will hit him!"

As soon as this remark came out, the expressions of the generals present all changed.

In an instant, Lu Xun saved half their lives.

Lu Xun said again: "If you want to break Liu Bei, you have to stand still and send a flying horse to inform Cao Ren, ordering him to break Liu Bei and set up a camp. When Liu Bei gets the news, he must return to the army, and our army will send troops to block his way!"

"The governor is wise!" All the generals cupped their fists to signal, showing admiration for Lu Xun.

Three fast horses flew out of the Jiangdong Army camp and went straight to Cao Jun's garrison.

At the same time, Lu Xun ordered the whole army to strictly guard the camp and not to rescue Bu Zhi.

When the news reached Liu Bei, he hurriedly asked Zhuge Liang.

"Military division, what exactly is Lu Xun's intention? Why didn't you send troops to rescue Bu Zhi?"

Chapter 369 Liu Bei was defeated one after another and was attacked by Liu Xian from behind

"Hey!" Zhuge Liang sighed again.

Intuition tells Liu Bei that as long as Zhuge Liang sighs, it is likely that nothing will happen.

Sure enough, Zhuge Liang said: "My lord, it seems that we have underestimated Lu Xun!"

Liu Bei frowned: "You mean, Lu Xun saw through our scheme?"

"Yeah!" Zhuge nodded his head: "Lu Xun chose not to rescue him, so he must have seen through our army's strategy. He is also strictly guarding the camp. It is impossible for our army to rob the camp!"

Liu Bei said: "According to the opinion of the military adviser, what should we do?"

Zhuge Liang said: "Lu Xun will definitely believe in Cao Ren. Now that things have happened, we can only withdraw slowly and keep Yulin City safe!"

"Okay!" Liu Bei nodded, and ordered Zhang Fei to retreat first with Zhuge Liang.
