When the woodcutter heard this, his face changed greatly, and he turned to run.
"If you can escape in front of me, my name will be written upside down!"
Zhang Fei gave a big drink, his legs were sandwiched with horse's belly, and Wu Zhui BMW's mind was clear, and he flew out with a long hiss.
"Kill!"
Zhang Fei, on the horse's back, gave a sharp drink. His eyes were wide, and his arm thrust forward. The long Zhangba snake spear suddenly penetrated into the body and penetrated into the back of the Cao army, and broke out of the former chest. Then Zhang Fei shook his arms, and Cao Bing was picked into the air and screamed.
"Hey
Zhang Fei gave a big drink and threw his arms down. Cao Bing's body looked like rags. It was centered on his back and separated directly from it. The bright red blood was sprinkled all over the floor.
"Hum, how dare you lie in front of Lao Zhang
Zhang Fei snorted, pulled his horse back to the array and continued to lead the army forward. This incident is like a quiet incident, which does not affect the progress of the army at all.
That night, Liu Bei was in his main camp.
"Big brother, I found a detailed work of Cao Jun tonight."
Zhang Fei chewed and muttered: "this guy pretended to be a woodcutter and wanted to inquire about our army's news, but I saw through it and stabbed him to death with a spear."
Liu Bei nodded: "well, our army has already entered the territory of Jiujiang county. It is not in Runan. It is inevitable that Cao's army will work carefully. We have to send more scouts to investigate in all directions to prevent being ambushed by the enemy."
In ancient times, there was no satellite map for marching and fighting, so the army looked like a giant, and the scouts sent out were like the eyes of giants. They could detect the enemy's movements and prevent them from being ambushed.
In the late Ming Dynasty, because of the poor training of scouts, the Ming army was often caught by the Qing army to ambush, leading to a great defeat. An army without Scouts is, of course, terrible.
"Big brother, third brother, I'm a little worried." Guan Yu frowned.
"Yunchang, what's the matter?"
"Cao's army can't be the only one. At the moment, the movement of our army may have fallen into the eyes of the enemy. And our army is about to cross the Huaihe River. What should the enemy do if they are arrayed on the opposite bank and are ready to attack them while our army is halfway across the river? " Guan Yu worried.
In terms of military talent, Guan Yu is undoubtedly the most outstanding of Liu Bei's three brothers. Otherwise, Liu Bei would not have left Guan Yu alone to guard Jingxiang. Later, Guan Yu launched the famous battle of Xiangfan, besieging Cao Ren and flooding the seven armies. Cao Cao was frightened by Guan Yu and even planned to move his capital.
Liu Bei and Zhang Fei are not fools either. After hearing Guan Yu's words, their faces suddenly became solemn.
"Long Yun is right. If so, it will be more difficult for our army to cross the Huaihe River." Liu Bei frowned.
Guan Yu clasped his fist and said, "brother, please give me ten thousand troops and horses. Yide Tongbing will assist you. I will divide 30000 soldiers into two ways. Elder brother and Yide will lead 20000 soldiers to continue to advance. I will lead 10000 troops and horses as a partial division."
Guan Yu pointed to the map and said, "I led ten thousand divisions around the upper reaches of the huaishui River, and went straight behind the enemy to attack the enemy. When the enemy and our armies were engaged, the elder brother and Yide took advantage of the opportunity to cross the river, and our two armies attacked the enemy in front of and behind, so Xia Houdun would be helpless."
Liu Bei and Zhang Feijun agreed: "this plan is wonderful."
"In this case, you will lead the army for ten thousand by yourself. Be careful, do you know?" Liu Bei said uneasily.
Guan Yu nodded: "big brother, don't worry."
"Yide, you must not act rashly. You must protect your elder brother, you know?" Guan Yu is worried about Zhang Feidao.
Zhang Fei clapped his chest and assured him, "don't worry, second brother. I'm here."
So Liu Bei divided 30000 troops into two. Guan Yu led 10000 troops and headed for the upper reaches of the Huaihe River, while Liu Bei and Zhang Fei led 20000 troops and came towards the Huaihe River in the established direction.
...
"general yuanrang, after the accurate investigation of our scouts, the enemy should appear in this river immediately, and our army can make arrangements earlier." Han Hao on one side said to Xia Houdun.
"Well, this time it was Liu Bei who dared to cross the river. He would have to give him to the prime minister!" XiahouDun laughed.
After all, this is Jiujiang county. The Scouts of Cao's army had already occupied the geographical advantage and were familiar with the local terrain. Therefore, although they did not know Liu Bei's movements like the palm of his hand, they were basically certain.
XiahouDun and Han Hao, led by Xiahou Dun and Han Hao, quietly stationed on the East Bank of huaishui River in a tight formation, waiting for the arrival of Liu Bei's army.
After about three quarters of an hour, the land on the West Bank of the huaishui river suddenly made a sound of shaking, and then countless dense heads appeared in the sight of XiahouDun.
Liu Bei and Zhang Fei rode together and slowly came to the West Bank of Huaihe River.
"As expected, as long Yun said, the enemy troops are already waiting for our army on the East Bank of huaishui river." Liu Bei sighed.Zhang Fei said with a smile: "when the second elder brother goes around behind them, I must give this XiahouDun a little bit of a good taste."
Liu Bei did not answer, but ordered: "the whole army to stop!"
Boom!
The 20000 army immediately stopped and stopped moving. Instead, they crossed the river with Cao's army and stopped moving.
"Liu Bei is cunning and doesn't cross the river." Xia Hou Dun laughed: "in this case, we will spend so much time with the enemy. Let's see how long Liu Bei's army can last!"
Liu Bei's army is on the offensive side, so it is difficult to supply food and grass, and may be intercepted by Cao's army. The Cao army is different. Cao army is the main battle area, and has the advantage in food and grass logistics. If it goes on like this, Xia Houdun is not afraid.
As a result, 50000 soldiers of the two armies were facing each other across the river. Although it was shrouded in the atmosphere of fierce swords, the two armies did not fight, not even a single arrow was fired, and it looked very peaceful.
"General yuan rang, it seems that there is something wrong with him." Han Hao suddenly frowned.
"Oh, I think something's wrong with it, too."
Xia Hou Dun frowned and said, "it seems that the enemy is not in a hurry to cross the river at all. It seems that it is enough to hold our troops here."
Liu Bei's army was not in a hurry to attack. He was leisurely and leisurely, giving the impression that he was not in a hurry at all. Did the enemy have any backhand?
"Not good!"
Han Hao suddenly exclaimed: "general yuan rang, Liu Bei and his three brothers are all going out. Why are the two banners of Liu and Zhang but not Guan Yu's?"
"What?"
Xia Hou Dun's eyes glared, and he quickly glanced toward the other side. He could not find the flag with the word "Guan".
