Chapter 402 Deng Ai kills Chen Dao

The Han army deployed 10,000 troops in the He County area behind the grain transport, which was just enough to be investigated by the Chu army, so Zhuge Liang naturally knew it.

The number of Chu troops was limited, and the elite troops were only about 33,000. If you want to sneak attack on the Han army's food route, you must send out elite troops. The total number of elite troops was exactly the limit of the Chu army.

In Zhuge Liang's opinion, with Wei Yan and Chen Dao, and another surprise attack, his own number is not smaller than that of the Han army, and he should have 70% or 80% chance of winning.

In fact, it was precisely because of this idea that Zhuge Liang stepped into Lu Xun's trap.

This seemingly uncomplicated strategy has a detailed plan. If any detail is wrong, Zhuge Liang will not be fooled, and may even come up with a plan to win in the opposite direction.

Lu Xun's calculations meant that everything seemed normal. From the fact that the Chu army learned about the specific forces deployed in the He County area, etc., there was no calculating element in any detail.

All the information is normal, the only abnormal thing is Jiang Wei and Deng Ai.

By the way, Wei Yan and Chen Dao each led a 5,000 elite Chu army. They walked smoothly and suddenly appeared in He County, hiding their traces and preparing for attack.

According to the plan given to the two people by Zhuge Liang in advance, Chen Dao was responsible for attacking the grain transport team of the Han army outside He County, luring the Han army inside He County to come out for rescue, while Wei Yan took the opportunity to attack the He County.

By then, if the county town is captured, the Han army in He County will be in chaos. Wei Yan and Chen Dao will take advantage of the situation to wipe out all the Han army in He County, completely control the He County area, and cut off the Han army's food route.

A team of 3,000 Han troops were escorting the food and grass from Jingzhou. This batch of food and grass is enough for a hundred thousand troops to eat for half a month.

When Chen Dao learned the news, he immediately led his 5,000 Chu troops to launch a sudden attack.

"Kill!" Chen Dao took the lead, and the Chu soldiers rushed out from the left and right and front at the same time.

Although the Han army was caught off guard, the Han army was well-trained elite. After a brief chaos, they formed a formation to resist and were not immediately killed by the Chu army. At the same time, several teams broke through and went to He County for help.

Seeing this, Chen also commanded several teams to intercept. It seemed that the Han army would not escape successfully and went to He County to seek help, but in fact it released water, so he barely stopped one of the Han army.

He County Town.

Jiang Wei and Deng Ai received news that the grain transport team was raided. The two stood up and Jiang Wei said happily: "It was exactly as Lu Xun expected. Zhuge Liang did send the 'anti-army' into He County to raid our army's ration road."

In Cangwu County, although the Han army has been monitoring every move of the Chu army, Zhuge Liang is the world's number one genius. He has his own way to send Wei Yan, Chen Dao and ten thousand Chu troops out without the Han army's awareness. However, Zhuge Liang did not know that he hit Lu Xun's guess, Jiang Wei and Deng Ai had been waiting in He County for many days.

Deng Ai was more impatient than Jiang Wei. There was obviously a war outside the city. He was unwilling to wait in the city, so he said to Jiang Wei: "Boyue, you stay in the city, and I will bring 4,000 troops out of the city!"

Jiang Wei did not fight with Deng Ai and stayed in the city. There were other Chu troops who took the opportunity to raid the city. It was the same inside and outside the city. However, Jiang Wei said to Deng Ai: "Shihuo, go, but take five thousand soldiers and horses away. After leaving the city ten miles away, he ordered another thousand soldiers and horses to return, lie outside the city, and wait for me to attack inside and outside!"

Deng Ai nodded and then took five thousand Han soldiers out of the city, while Jiang Wei and two other Han soldiers remained in the city.

Wei Yan has been paying attention to the movements of He County's gate. Knowing that five thousand Han troops were out of the city, he thought that only two thousand Han troops were left in the city, and he immediately smiled: "He County's city is already my treasure!"

However, Wei Yan was not in a hurry to raid the He County city immediately. He had to wait for Deng Ai and other five thousand Han troops to go farther.

On the other side, after Deng Ai led 5,000 Han troops ten miles away from the city, he divided 1,000 Han troops and quietly returned to He County and hid outside the city. He led the remaining 4,000 Han troops to continue to rescue the grain transport team.

The location of the grain transport team is about forty miles away from Hexian City.

Deng Ai and the four thousand Han troops were about to make an emergency rescue posture, and they kept working hard since they came out of the city. In just over half an hour, Deng Ai led the four thousand Han troops to the location of the grain transport team.

The grain transport team had only 3,000 people, and no one was led by a powerful general. They were suddenly attacked by Chen Dao and were almost killed and scattered at this time.

Chen Dao rushed back and forth among the Han army in the grain transport team, and was unstoppable. He was brave and could not defeat him. He was one of the few generals in the Chu army who were only inferior to Wei Yan.

Suddenly, when Deng Ai led the Han army reinforcements in He County, Chen Dao couldn't help but frowned.

According to Zhuge Liang's initial explanation and discussion with Wei Yan, Chen Dao should not confront the Han army reinforcements from He County. When the Han army reinforcements from He County arrived, he should first avoid the enemy's edge. After Wei Yan took over the city of He County, the Han army's morale will be in turmoil and then attacked and wiped out the Han army in He County.

"Unfortunate!" Chen Dao cursed inwardly.

He was about to completely kill the three thousand Han troops in the scattered grain transport team and get this huge batch of Han army food and grass, but he didn't expect the Han army reinforcements from He County to arrive so quickly.

Chen Dao was not willing to give up like this. He took the lead in Deng Ai among the Han reinforcements.

From the armor-piercing stomach that Deng Ai can see that Deng Ai is the chief general of the Han army reinforcements, and Deng Ai is so young, he is only in his early twenties.

Chen Dao's eyes flashed, and he obviously had a special contempt for the first time that a veteran general in his early twenties saw a young "young player" in his early twenties. Chen Dao did not think that Deng Ai could have much courage.

Without hesitation, Chen Dao decided to try whether he could kill Deng Ai, a young "young general" of the Han army. If he succeeded, he could defeat the Han reinforcements that had come. If he failed, it would be fine if he retreated again.

"Chen Dao is here, Han General is killed quickly!" Chen Dao shouted, then plucked his horse and killed Deng Ai.

Deng Ai snorted coldly, not only without any panic, but also with a hint of disdain. Lu Xun, the remaining six generals of the Chu army, had already evaluated the eldest son of the emperor Liu Rui, and Deng Ai and Jiang Wei were also present at that time. To talk about the strongest Wei Yan, Deng Ai could still pay a little attention. Chen Dao, how could Deng Ai take it seriously?

Deng Ai held his weapons tightly, and the surrounding Han soldiers did not attack Deng Ai's orders, and did not attack Chen Dao, so that Chen Dao could easily kill Deng Ai.

Chen Dao cut down Deng Ai's waist with a big knife, trying to cut Deng Ai in half.

Deng Ai stretched out his halberd and easily pressed against Chen Dao's sword.

Chen Dao was shocked, but at this moment, he could no longer retreat because after Deng Ai resisted his sword, he also stabbed him with a halberd.

The two fought together.

Chen Dao became more and more frightened as he fought. After seven rounds, he knew that he was definitely not Deng Ai's opponent. In his fear, he wanted to retreat.

Unfortunately, how could Deng Ai allow Chen Dao to escape from him? He entangled Chen Dao and did not give Chen Dao any chance to take the opportunity to escape.

After ten rounds of battle, Deng Ai cut Chen Da's neck with a halberd, and killed Chen Dao on his horse!
