The Strongest Overlord of the Three Kingdoms

Now it seems that under Wang Tu's desperate defense, the morale of the soldiers has gradually recovered, and finally it is not as sluggish as before.

However, in order to prevent Liu Ke from using the strategy of attacking Xiyuan again and dispatching troops from multiple directions, Cao Cao had to send some soldiers to garrison along the river.

Fortunately, the terrain in the northern plateau is much more steep than that in the western plateau, so Liu Ke hasn't stretched the battle line too far yet.

Zhang Liao's army was repelled three times in a row and lost many soldiers, so he had to retreat temporarily and went to plead guilty to Liu Ke alone.

"Your Majesty, the last general can't attack in a row, and loses troops and loses generals. Please punish him!"

Liu Ke gently raised his hand and said, "Wen Yuan, don't be impatient. I will join you and Wen Qian with ten thousand soldiers, and you can just attack with peace of mind!"

Hearing this, Zhang Liao was very grateful, and immediately returned to the front line again to continue the attack.

The two sides launched a fierce tug-of-war around the muddy water banks, causing many casualties.

At this time, Liu Ke's camp was also engaged in intense planning.

"Your Majesty, the soldiers suffered heavy casualties. Is it time to summon General Ling Tong?"

"Don't worry about Yuanzhi, now is not the time!" Pang Tong explained, "Although the battle situation on the front line seems to be tragic.

But in fact the scale is not too large, and Cao Cao's army has not all been able to top it.

Attacking rashly now will not only fail to win by surprise, but will even alarm Cao Cao and make him escape early. "

"Shi Yuan, even though that's the case, you can't just watch the soldiers die in vain?" Xu Shu was still a little worried about the casualties of ordinary soldiers.

But Pang Tong said: "Yuanzhi, you are so confused. You only see the casualties of the soldiers at this moment, but if the plan fails, the number of casualties may double.

Are you not afraid of sacrifice at that time? "

Xu Shu, who was asked by Pang Tong, was speechless for a long time, and finally could only sigh: "Oh! Why don't I understand this truth?

It's just that I can't bear it! "

Pang Tong did not continue to speak, but Zhuge Liang who was beside him took the initiative to speak.

"Your Majesty, there are actually ways to reduce casualties, and they should be very effective."

As soon as everyone heard it, they immediately became interested, and Liu Ke also asked Zhuge Liang to explain it carefully.

It turned out that Zhuge Liang's strategy was very simple. He still followed the example of the previous attack on Xiyuan and adopted the strategy of dividing his troops.

If this is the case, Cao Cao has few soldiers in the first place, so he can only pile up all the soldiers and horses on the front line to completely protect the river bank.

However, some people questioned it again. Now there are only two attacks, and the casualties are already heavy.

If the front line is longer, the casualties will be greater, and the most important thing is that the long-term attack is not good, and it will have a great blow to morale.

However, Zhuge Liang gave a different view.

Instead, he believed that sending more generals to attack from various directions would not only not affect morale.

On the contrary, it will create a positive atmosphere because of the bravery among the soldiers.

After all, there are many famous generals under Liu Ke, each of them has their own pride and is unwilling to be inferior to others.

Now that they were given a chance to compete head-on, how could the generals be willing to admit defeat.

With so many fierce generals coming out together, even Cao Cao would definitely not be able to handle it.

In this way, they can only increase troops continuously until all the strength at hand is used up.

Moreover, Zhuge Liang's plan, although the group of generals has finished, is still only a feint to attract the opponent's attention.

The enemy has few soldiers and can't take care of it. As long as you take precautions, the casualties will not be too great.

It is even lower than the casualties of the current two-way attack. After all, Cao Jun's attack targets are only two targets now.

After Zhuge Liang's analysis, all the doubts in the hearts of the generals were all answered, and no one has questioned it since then.

Liu Ke, who was sitting in the main seat, listened to his strategy, and after analyzing it in his mind for a while, he also thought it was feasible.

So, he immediately started to line up.

"Kong Ming's strategy is exactly what I want, and all the generals will step forward to listen to the order!

Lu Bu, Dian Wei, Xu Huang, Ma Chao, Pang De, Li Dian, I command you to lead an army of [-] each, and together with Zhang Liao and Yue Jin's eight-way army.

Launch an attack along the Nishui River together, and be sure to attract the attention of all Cao Jun.

Remember, I don't require you to rush to land on the beach, as long as you can contain Cao's army here, it will be considered a success! "

Several people immediately came out and took orders to go.

These generals are all the most powerful group in Liu Ke's hands now, and Cao Jun can bear it all if he goes out alone.

Now that the eight roads are attacking together, it is already thankful to be able to barely cope.

Sure enough, when the eight armies came to the muddy water coast together, Cao Ying finally exploded.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Liu Ke sent Lu Bu, Dian Wei, Xu Huang, Ma Chao, Pang De, Li Dian, together with Zhang Liao and Yue Jin, a total of eight troops.

Acting together, crossing the muddy water by force, its momentum is unstoppable! "

When everyone in the tent heard this, they were all shocked.

Even Cao Cao's face changed slightly.
