Chapter 170

After hearing Jia Xu's words, Gan Ning was very happy.

As a Veteran General in the army, he naturally knew the benefits of touching Cao Cao's granary. As the saying goes, food and grass go first before troops move. In a war, grain and grass are the most important strategic materials.

Once food and grass are lost, tens of thousands of people and horses will lose their rations. This kind of thing happens in the army, which is quite terrifying. It may lead to military unrest or mutiny.

Zhang Xiu pondered for a moment and said: "at present, Cao Cao's army is mainly stationed on the north slope of Lushan. Although Cao Cao's soldiers are stationed in other directions, it is not difficult to select one side to break through with our strength. "

Gan Ning suggested: "according to Mr. Jia's plan, we should go around the bush with Cao Jun. Under such circumstances, why not go to Yanzhou? Going to Yanzhou, on the one hand, is far away from CaoJun in Luyang county. On the other hand, it's close to Cao's granary. "

"No!"

Jia Xu refused directly.

There was a flash of light in Jia Xu's eyes and he said, "Cao Cao is very smart and not easy to be compared with. The counselors around Cao Cao also have insight into the situation. If we don't go south to the county, we go north instead. It's easy to scare the snake. "

"Cao Cao probably speculated that our intention to go north would further affect the garrison near Cao's granary. Once Cao Cao strengthens the number of troops stationed in the granary, Ling Feng will not be able to win

"That's quite dangerous."

"This time with Cao Cao's contest, the victory or defeat lies in Ling Feng, he is the key to this battle."

Jia Xu said: "therefore, we have to go south and withdraw in the direction of Luyang county. We are familiar with the topography of Luyang county. We can go around in circles and detour to Luyang county. "

"In addition, we can also arrange an army to solve the Cao army in Luyang county first. Now that the news of Cao's soldiers seizing Luyang county has come back, we will also withdraw from Lushan

"Under such a premise, Cao Jun in Luyang county has lost its value. Therefore, we can arrange for one person to lead the army. First, we should take a small path to withdraw, and then we should cooperate with Lu Guili to win the Cao army stationed in Luyang county. "

Jia Zhizhu is in charge of it and puts forward some suggestions.

Gan Ning thought for a while, then said: "Mr. Jia means that now, we just need to beat around the bush with Cao Cao."

"Yes

Jia Xu answered directly.

Jia Xu has always been very patient in fighting and will not change his plans at will.

Zhang Xiu said: "according to Mr. Jia's plan, the next step is to withdraw from Lushan. However, even if we withdraw from Lushan, we must pay attention to it. We can't withdraw directly, otherwise we will be easily entangled by Cao Jun. "

Chen Zhi said: "Lord, the Sirius camp, the commander of the last general, is a cavalry, coming and going like the wind. At last, he asked to go down the mountain first to break through the encirclement, and to make a detour to harass him, so as to share the pressure of the Lord and help him to break through the encirclement. "

"No!"

Zhang Xiu refused directly.

For Zhang Xiu, the cavalry is very precious and can't be used to break through the encirclement.

Zhang Xiu had a general plan in his mind. After careful consideration, he said, "this time, we will break through the encirclement by combining the virtual and the real. I think about it like this

Immediately, Zhang Xiu elaborated the plan.

He didn't find it very difficult to break through.

It's easy.

After hearing this, Jia Xu made a deduction with his beard under his jaw, and agreed: "Cao Cao is suspicious, especially when Cao Cao is in the master's hands. After several losses, he is hard to judge in the face of false and real schemes. The Lord's plan is feasible. "

Pang Tong nodded in agreement.

All agreed.

Zhang Xiu saw that everyone had no opinion, so she arranged it immediately.

Soldiers on the mountain, assemble quickly.

All the soldiers began to pack up and prepare for the breakthrough. When Zhang Xiu was actively preparing, Cao's soldiers, who were shouting at the foot of the mountain, stopped shouting and quickly withdrew to the barracks.

Xia Houyuan mobilized his soldiers and stationed them in all directions of Lushan, waiting for Zhang Xiu to come down from the mountain.

He believed that Zhang Xiu would break through.

This is Cao Jun's chance.

Xia Houyuan was waiting at the foot of the mountain, and Cao Cao, Guo Jia and others all came to the foot of the mountain.

Cao Jun, be ready.

Cao Cao's face looked expectant. He was very patient and waited quietly. He looked at Lushan Mountain, which was not lofty and steep. There was a faint light in his eyes. He continued to eat shriveled in the hands of Zhang Xiu, the heart is very depressed.

When he thought about Cao Cao, that is, when Chen Gong and others rebelled, most of Yanzhou fell, and Cao Cao was extremely angry at that time.

Most of the time, Cao Cao is in good luck.

But Cao Cao here in Zhang Xiu, successive losses, even his own nephew were Zhang Xiu caught.

He wants revenge, too!

Cao Cao sat on a grass stump and waited quietly.

Time goes by little.

An hour passes quietly.Two hours, slip away in the middle of irritability.

By this time, it was almost noon, and the warm sun was shining high after the Spring Festival. Even if it's cold in spring, I don't feel cold when I'm in the sun. On the contrary, I feel comfortable when I'm in the sun.

Cao Cao was not happy.

Cao Cao wanted to beat Zhang Xiu earlier. But the more he hoped, the more unhappy he was. Towards noon, he just had a few mouthfuls of rice, so he stopped eating and continued to wait at the foot of the mountain.

Cao ang also sat beside Cao Cao. He was full of revenge, but he wanted to kill him immediately.

Unfortunately, that's not realistic.

We have to wait.

In the afternoon, the sun rose and it was warmer.

At this time, Cao Cao and his generals were already impatient. It's been such a long time, but I haven't seen Zhang Xiu's action. Everyone is very anxious.

In anxiety, time passes again.

More than an hour passed.

In the afternoon, Cao Cao's generals were all impatient. Some generals have come to Cao Cao's front to fight, ready to attack Lushan. For them, in the case of Luyang County, Zhang Xiu's army must be in turmoil.

At this time, it is not difficult to defeat Zhang Xiu.

So, one by one, they asked for a strong attack.

Cao Cao looked around the people, glanced at the generals under his command, and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu thief, he is very cunning. You can think of it. He won't? Is Zhang Xiu not worried about the news of the fall of Luyang county? "

"Why is Zhang Xiu calm?"

"If he doesn't come down the mountain, he just wants to make you impatient and let you take the initiative to attack the mountain. Although Lushan is not a steep place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack, it is a mountain at least. "

"It's not easy for us to attack Lushan."

"In the case that Luyang county has fallen, it is extremely unwise for us to give up our advantages and attack Lushan Mountain, which is tantamount to giving up our own advantages and attacking the other's advantages with our own shortcomings."

"Even if the other side's morale is turbulent, it is not an opportunity to attack."

Cao Cao's eyes were sharp, and said: "Zhang Xiu has patience, don't I have patience? Procrastination is not harmful to us. On the contrary, it is harmful to Zhang Xiu. So wait. "

Although Cao Cao was also impatient.

But Cao Cao didn't show the slightest impatience. Instead, he waited patiently. He and Zhang Xiu's several confrontations, have seen Zhang Xiu's fierce, not impulsive.

Once the impulse, it may fall into the trap of Zhang Xiu.

Cao Cao preferred to be steady.

As long as he can beat Zhang Xiu and wait a little longer, he doesn't think it's anything.

When people heard Cao Cao's words, they didn't say much, just kept waiting. Even Cao Cao, as the commander in chief, has patience to wait. What else can they say?

Guo Jia sat beside Cao Cao with a look of approval on his face.

Before that, Cao Cao despised and despised Zhang Xiu, and even slightly despised her. However, the consequence of belittling the enemy is to lose the general at the expense of his troops. Now that Cao Cao adjusted his mind, Guo Jia was no longer worried.

Cao Jun will win this battle.

This is Guo Jia's judgment.

Although Cao Jun people are upset, but in the irritability, time is still a little bit of the passage.

In the twinkling of an eye, half an hour passed.

Although it is still early, the weather in early spring is very dark, and the sun has entered the clouds. Without the sun's shining, it's colder. The cold wind makes people shiver.

"Newspaper!"

Suddenly, a sentry came running fast.

The sentinel came to Cao Cao's side and reported: "Qi Zhikong, Zhang Xiu's army, began to go out on a large scale. Now they are gathering to the south of Lushan, and they are very likely to break through the encirclement to the south of Lushan. "

"Lord, please fight

As soon as Xia Houyuan heard this, he was in high spirits and immediately prepared to fight.
