It was expected that Deputy Director Tao's greed and cruelty were easy to kill, and he would definitely not lose watermelon and pick up sesame seeds. Zhuge Liang did not hesitate to suggest Uncle Liu to take on a task that seemed like cannon fodder. Uncle Liu, who obeyed Zhuge Liang's will, did not hesitate at all. He led his 5,000 troops out of the camp and headed east to fight against the Xuzhou army. After the scouts of Xuzhou discovered the movement, they immediately sent the news back to Xuchang and sent it to Deputy Director Tao.

Given that the Jingzhou army had already crossed the river and was about to begin, Deputy Director Tao left Gao Shun and Fu Yang to guard Xuchang City, and had moved to the camp outside the city to fight at any time. After receiving the news, Deputy Director Tao had already voluntarily brought the tent to the big tent to wait for orders. Zhao Yun, who made mistakes in the previous episode, and Tuo Mian, who was killed by his clan brother, volunteered to be the vanguard to fight against Jingzhou Shui Monkey who dared to come to his door to die.

"Why are you anxious?" Faced with the generals' voluntary voluntary urgency, Deputy Director Tao, who had accepted the suggestion of Jia Lao's poison to lure the enemy, was calm and calm, and smiled at Zhao Yun and Tuo Meng, who took the initiative to ask for battle: "If only five thousand enemies are needed to mobilize our Xuzhou Iron Cavalry? Don't raise those Jingzhou monkeys, sending three thousand infantry to fight!"

He smiled and waved his hand to ask Zhao Yun and Tuo Mian to retreat. Deputy Director Tao pointed to Qin Yi, the commander of Xuzhou infantry, who was in the back, and said with a smile: "General Qin Yi, let me leave this battle to you. How about taking three thousand infantry out of the battalion to fight the enemy?"

"No!" Qin Yi, who was left to Deputy Director Tao, immediately folded his fists and agreed, and then asked without waiting for instructions: "Lord, is the last general allowed to lose but not win?"

"Huh? How do you know?" Deputy Director Tao was stunned.

Xuzhou civil and military officials present laughed, and Qin Yi himself smiled even more bitterly, saying embarrassedly: "Lord, because every time the last general leads his army to fight, he is basically defeated but not allowed to win."

The generals in Xuzhou laughed wildly and won even more. Deputy Director Tao was a little embarrassed and smiled awkwardly: "I really forgot that it seems that General Qin is the position of seducing the enemy every time. I really feel wronged. But General Qin doesn't care. Next time I will pay attention. If there is such an unlucky job, I will definitely not hand it over to you again."

"Thank you, lord." General Qin Yi, who is skilled in all kinds of martial arts, did not care much about being in such unlucky missions again and again. After thanking him, he just begged again: "Lord, I heard that the thief general in Jingzhou who led the troops this time was Liu Bei's big-eared thief. The last general dared to ask the lord to prepare for the reception, so as to avoid excessive casualties between our soldiers."

"Of course, I..." Deputy Director Tao agreed casually, but suddenly stopped halfway, and screamed in surprise: "Big ear thief? Is Big ear thief leading five thousand troops to Xuchang?"

Qin Yi and several Xuzhou generals nodded. Deputy Director Tao was furious and hurriedly asked the Xuzhou whistle detective who came to report the message, "Since you know that the big-eared thieves were leading the army to fight? Why do you only report that there were five thousand Jingzhou infantry coming from the east?"

"This..." The detective who came to report the news was stunned for a moment, then quickly knelt down on one knee to apologize: "The last general knew that the crime was. The last general just reported only the number of enemies and the troops, and forgot to report who the enemy general was. The lord did not ask who the general was later. The lord said that the lord didn't care about this matter, so he did not add it."

Deputy Director Tao recalled carefully and found that he was indeed a little careless just now. He did not notice that the detective had forgotten to report who was led by the enemy, and then forgot to ask for the name of the general. Under the capturing, Deputy Director Tao first blamed himself for his carelessness of underestimating the enemy, and then shouted to the detective, "Okay, since I have done this, then you should have been punished for the misunderstanding of the enemy's situation. I should have punished you twenty feet now. Now I will only punish you half and go down to get the ten army sticks! Next time I report the enemy's situation, if there are any more unclear words and omissions, I will be more responsible!"

The unlucky detective sang his promise honestly and went down to receive the military law dejectedly. The civil and military officials in Xuzhou in the tent were also silent and did not dare to joke easily. Only Lao Jia said calmly: "Does the lord want to give up the plan to lure the enemy? Seize this opportunity to get rid of the three brothers Liu Bei?"

Deputy Director Tao nodded and said solemnly: "Yes, if we can seize the opportunity to kill one of the three brothers Liu, Guan and Zhang, our army will be far better than annihilation of Cai Mao, and Huang Shi's 30,000 Jingzhou water monkeys under his command. If Zhuge Liang can be eliminated, our army will be even better than getting half of Jingzhou."

Jia Lao's poisonous creature was silent, just like other Xuzhou civil and military officials, and he didn't understand why Deputy Director Tao attached so much importance to and was wary of a Zhuge Liang who had just debuted? Deputy Director Tao could not explain this reason at all, and just ordered quickly: "General Qin Yi, you still lead 3,000 infantry out of the camp and lined up to fight against Liu Bei's team five miles west of the camp. If the big-eared thief comes, fight with it firmly. Be sure to bite the big-eared thief team so that he will not have the chance to escape immediately!"

Qin Yi sang a promise again, but Deputy Director Tao reminded him with concern: "Remember, be sure to bite the big-eared thief. It would be better if you can fight with the big-eared thief team. You don't have to consider how much money you pay. As long as you can persist until our reinforcements arrive, you will remember your merits! Go quickly and hurry up."

Qin Yi solemnly agreed and immediately ran down to organize the team to attack. Deputy Director Tao quickly ordered: "Zhao Yun, Tian Xiang, Xu Huang, Tuo Mian, you will go down to organize the cavalry at the camp gates on both sides of the north and south sides of the camp. When you hear the cannons in the camp, you will immediately go out to reinforce the battlefield and attack the Daer-eared thieves! If the Daer-eared thieves are defeated and flee, you will immediately pursue them firmly, and be sure to wipe out the Daer-eared thieves' team!"

Zhao Yun, Xu Huang, Tian Xiang and other generals agreed, and rushed away. Deputy Director Tao pointed at Tao Ji, who had been eager to try it out, and shouted: "Tao Ji, you led the Gentleman Army to gather in the back camp. When you hear the cannons, you immediately leave the camp from the back door and detour to cut off the road to return! If necessary, you can fight in close combat at any cost!"

Tao Ji, who hated Uncle Liu, agreed loudly and jumped out. Deputy Director Tao ordered again: "Xu Chu, Wei Yan, Taishi Ci, Yin Li, you four immediately led the troops to gather at the main gate of the camp, and led by me personally. After confirming that General Qin Yi had successfully lured the enemy, you will immediately follow me to attack! Go and find the big-eared thief to settle the old and new accounts!"

The four generals agreed and ran out to organize the troops. Deputy Director Tao arranged for Ma Zhong to gather his guard Hou Minghe to prepare the cannon, and then explained to Lao Jia, Liu Ye and others: "Mr. Wenhe, Mr. Ziyang, after our army attacked, the camp will tell you. Although it is still early now and there is no need for night battles, in order to prevent it, please prepare things for night battles to avoid being caught off guard when there is a night battle."

Several Xuzhou strategists agreed together, and then Liu Ye laughed and said, "In addition to guarding Xuchang's camp, our army is definitely considered to be all the elite this time. If the big-eared thief knew that he would enjoy such treatment, he would probably not even dare to fight with our often defeated general General Qin Yi, and would immediately turn around and run away."

"So I asked to gather troops inside the camp, just to scare away the big-eared thieves." Deputy Director Tao sneered, and then thought for a moment and said: "By the way, in order for the army to launch an attack as soon as possible, I will order the army to destroy some of the fences at the main gate. Sir, you also need to prepare for repairing the fences." Jia Lao Poison, Liu Ye and others sang, and immediately began to prepare for arrangements.

……………………

Uncle Liu, who was completely unaware of the danger approaching, was laughing and admired Zhuge Liang's foresight, because the scouts sent by Uncle Liu had already reported it. Deputy Director Tao, who had always been greedy, did not plan to fight the self-arms with all his might. He just sent Qin Yi, a famous general in Xuzhou, to lead three thousand troops out of the camp and was ushering in the self-arms. Then Xuzhou camp immediately closed the gates, and no soldiers out of the camp. It was obvious that he only planned to use the three thousand infantry under Qin Yi to perfunctory Uncle Liu, which made Uncle Liu, who was still a little worried, breathed a sigh of relief and became more confident of winning this battle.

Zhuge Liang, who was suspicious and cautious, was far above Deputy Director Tao and Boss Cao, not without guarding against the famous treacherous Deputy Director Tao and the back side, but the terrain of this area was too wide, with few hills, and the trees and forests were cut off by Cao's army, Yuan Shao's army and Xuzhou army in a major battle some time ago, and there was no ambush at all. Therefore, Zhuge Liang was sure that even if Deputy Director Tao had any moves, he would definitely make his decisions from the reinforcements. As long as the self-armed army responded in a timely manner and had quick action, he would definitely be able to evacuate the battlefield before the rear of Deputy Director Tao was launched.

Another more critical point is that Zhuge Liang is not able to fully understand the thoughts of Deputy Director Tao, that is, Zhuge Liang did not know that Deputy Director Tao was vigilant and hostile to him, and felt that Deputy Director Tao would not pay too much attention to him now, and he had the opportunity to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger! - But this is not surprising. Zhuge Liang is not only young, but also has no reputation and outstanding features. In addition to the deputy director Tao who is called Luo Guanzhong, he may be as good as Deputy Director Tao in terms of treacherous situations, and he must fall into Zhuge Liang's plan.

At this time, another scout news came from ahead, saying that Qin Yi's team had only left the camp for five miles and stopped moving forward. They had already started to line up to meet the enemy. After hearing the news, Emperor Liu said that Qin Yi was preparing to withdraw from the camp and no longer let the army move forward cautiously. He chose to urge the team to move quickly and prepare to rush to the battlefield before the Xuzhou army made other reactions. After rushing to the battlefield for several miles, Uncle Liu suddenly laughed out loud. It turned out that the defeated general Qin Yi was afraid of death, and actually set up a fish scale formation with very weak defense, pushing the soldiers forward as cannon fodder, and he hid behind the battle formation, posing as convenient for escape at any time.

Seeing such an enemy formation, Emperor Liu, who had been through the battlefield for a long time, immediately shouted: "Prepare the banner and set up the Yanyue Formation!"

With the flag waved, Liu Bei's soldiers quickly set up the formation. Zhuge Liang, who was cautious and suspicious, woke up and exclaimed: "Oh no! We may have been trapped!"

"After falling into a trap? What kind of trap?" Uncle Liu, who suffered enough pain from Deputy Director Tao, was shocked.

"The enemy's young soldiers set up a fish scale formation, not to defeat our army, but to entangle our army!" Zhuge Liang pointed to the front with a feather fan and said with a serious face: "The fish scale formation has weak defense, but is conducive to impact, and is the most convenient formation to entangle the enemy team to launch a melee. The enemy's commander is also a famous often defeated general. He does not seek defense but fights to the death. Obviously, he wants to entangle our army and buy time for his subsequent reinforcements!"

Uncle Liu's face changed drastically, but the Qin Yi team opposite was already playing war drums. Three thousand Xuzhou soldiers shouted and charged. General Qin Yi also led his personal troops to charge, yelling constantly, "Soldiers, rush up! Entangle with the big-eared thief! Protect me, protect me! Entangle the big-eared thief! Protect me!"

At the same time, behind Qinyi's team, when they saw the Qinyi team launching a charge, the Xuzhou scout who was ordered to send the order immediately ignited the wolf smoke. Once the wormwood and firewood were lit, a straight black smoke rose immediately, which could be seen ten miles away. Deputy Director Tao, hiding in the Xuzhou camp, saw the signal, and ordered the ignition guns to be ignited without hesitation. After a cannon, the Xuzhou army immediately attacked from all directions. The cavalry led by Zhao Yun and Xu Huang rushed out from the north and south camp gates. The gentleman army led by Tao Ji rushed out from the rear camp. The main army led by Deputy Director Tao rushed out from the front. In order to facilitate the camp, they simply pushed down a large fence. The total number of troops in the four routes exceeded 30,000, and they were all the elite troops of the Xuzhou army. They either charged in detour or advanced straight, and rushed to the battlefield five miles away.

At this time, Qin Yi's team had already rushed to the front of Liu Bei's army three hundred steps away. The first two teams rushed into the dense areas of Liu Bei's army without hesitation and started a melee with Liu Bei's army. The Xuzhou army behind them continued to surge. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei on the left and right wings of Liu Bei's army were not polite. They immediately led their troops out from the left and right and attacked the two wings of Xuzhou army. When the time was too late, the two wings had already collided with the Xuzhou army. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were still happily leading the way and desperately chopped the poor Xuzhou soldiers. At one time, the real Three Kingdoms mowing was staged, so that the messengers sent by Liu Huang's army had no chance to find their orders.

Forced to helplessly, Uncle Liu had to order the gold to be heard during the melee. After the gold rings, the Emperor Uncle Army was immediately in a dilemma. Retreat, the enemy had already rushed to the front and turned around and gave it to the enemy to chop it. If he didn't withdraw, it would violate the military order. Contradictory, Uncle Army not only could not evacuate quickly, but also became chaotic and entangled even tighter by the Xuzhou army. In addition, although General Qin Yi himself was a rare martial arts, he was definitely a product in front of Master Guan Er and Master Zhang San, but the Xuzhou soldiers under General Qin Yi were more competitive than the soldiers of the Emperor Uncle Army. Not only was he experienced on the battlefield, he also had strong combat power. Taking advantage of the opportunity of chaos in the Emperor Uncle Army, he rushed even more violently. Not only did he entangle the Emperor Uncle Army more effectively, but he also took the opportunity to kill and injured many soldiers of the Emperor Uncle Army.

With a little delay, the Xuzhou cavalry with strong mobile power had already rushed to the vicinity. Zhao Yun's team was in the south and Xu Huang's team was in the north, and they surrounded the imperial uncle's army one left and one right. It was at this time that Guan Erye and Zhang San, who were able to kill, realized that something was wrong and quickly went to fight against the reinforcements of Xuzhou. As a result, Guan Erye was defeated by Xu Huang and Tuo Mian. Zhang Fei also met Zhao Yun. The battle was turned upside down and there was no victory or defeat. The Gentleman Army, whose mobility was even more terrifying, had already rushed to the back of the imperial uncle's army, desperately shooting the soldiers of the imperial uncle's army with bows and arrows.

The main force of the Xuzhou infantry, which had a total despair of the Emperor's Army, was still behind. The number of Xuzhou infantry, which exceeded 20,000, easily ran a mere five miles in charge under the personal leadership of Deputy Director Tao. Wei Yan's team, who was fighting for the vanguard, rushed to the battlefield almost like flying, and plunged into the melee battlefield without hesitation, desperately killing the frightened soldiers of the Emperor's Army. The poor Emperor's Army may be considered first-class soldiers in the Jingzhou Water Monkey Team, but when they came to the front of the elite Xuzhou who had been trained through countless bloody battles, they were simply the target of being completely abused. A elite soldier in Xuzhou could completely suppress two soldiers of the Emperor's Army. Two soldiers in Xuzhou could cut a team of emperor's army into pieces. The imperial uncle's army almost collapsed in an instant, including the elite combat soldiers under Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and the collapse speed was not slower than that of the central army.

Seeing this scene, Uncle Liu was almost going crazy. He wanted to rush to Deputy Director Tao and shout, "What are you doing when you hit me with such a heavy hand? I'm just here to test your side division, you are a cannon fodder that has nothing to do with! I'm going to beat me with such a heavy hand. Do you want to wipe out the 30,000 Jingzhou troops under Cai Mao's canvassal?"

"I underestimate the hatred of Tao thieves towards his lord!" This was the wailing from Zhuge Liang, but Zhuge Liang obviously wronged the poor Uncle Liu. If he hadn't come out eight years in advance, Deputy Director Tao might have really not been so ruthless to Uncle Liu.

It was too late to figure it out. The main army led by Deputy Director Tao was already rushing to the battlefield continuously and joined the battle without hesitation. Seeing Deputy Director Tao's flag, Uncle Liu was completely desperate. He could only lead Zhuge Liang to use his best skills to save lives on the battlefield, throw down the team that was still in fierce battle, lead the team that could still command, and carry the rolling yellow sand behind his butt, and it was like flying to escape from the road.

However, it was not as easy as before when Uncle Liu wanted to escape this time. The Junzi Army, whose maneuver speed was not as fast as Uncle Liu's escape speed, had already deviated to the rear of Uncle's army. The heavy cavalry rarely entered the close-range battlefield early and rushed to the large number of defeated soldiers of Uncle's army. The light cavalry used bows and arrows to greet the soldiers of Uncle's army, and they also specially rode horses and greeted the soldiers of Uncle's army wearing armor. One arrow was more fierce than the one arrow, and one arrow was more accurate than the one arrow, causing one grassroots general of the Uncle's army to fall and die, and also causing one armor to fall and fall to the ground one by one, and the other party of the Uncle's army to fall into the ground after another. The team of Uncle's army who lost command was even more chaotic.

The situation on the battlefield was completely one-sided. The Xuzhou army, which had absolute advantages in quantity, quality and experience, beat the poor uncle army like adults beating children, and also easily slaughtered the soldiers of the uncle army who had almost no power to fight back like killing pigs and sheep, killing the uncle army so hard that the uncle army was corpses everywhere and blood was flowing all over the ground. In this case, on this tragic open battlefield, the uncle army would not be said to be turning the situation around, not to mention whether 20 or 30% of the 100% could escape back to the camp.

The slogan of capturing the big-eared thief alive was already heard in the pursuit team. The collapsed Uncle Army soldiers had already escaped all over the mountains and fields. The soldiers around Uncle Liu riding a war horse were getting fewer and fewer soldiers. However, this was still more than twenty miles away from Cai Mao's camp. However, it was not difficult for Uncle Liu, who had experienced escape, to jump off the war horse quickly, Uncle Liu, quickly took out two sets of military uniforms of ordinary soldiers from the package behind the war horse. While changing his military uniforms for himself more quickly, he ordered Zhuge Liang: "Kongming, hurry up, you can also change into the clothes of ordinary soldiers. I will take you to retreat. Don't want the war horse, it's too conspicuous to ride a horse."

After hesitating for a moment, Zhuge Liang finally got off the horse and prepared to change clothes. While getting off the horse, he said depressedly: "Lord, Liang swears to the sky that from now on, he will never let you suffer such grievances again... Ah!"

"What's wrong?" Uncle Liu was shocked. When Zhuge Liang, who had quickly helped Zhuge Liang fall off the horse, looked carefully, his face turned pale, because Zhuge Liang's right ankle had been inserted into Zhuge Liang's right foot at some point. The arrowhead of the straggler went straight into the joint, destroying the joint structure. Although it was not fatal, his right foot was completely useless!

"Lord, Liang's legs are broken, you go." Zhuge Liang, who is proficient in medicine, also understood his injuries. He pretended to smile and asked Uncle Liu to leave first, but tears still oozed in his beautiful eyes.

Uncle Liu really wanted to leave Zhuge Liang and escape, but considering Zhuge Xuan's favor in front of Liu's surface and the forces behind the Zhuge family, Uncle Liu still slashed the arrow rod silently, quickly put the clothes of ordinary soldiers on Zhuge Liang, then helped Zhuge Liang on the horse's back, and smiled and said, "Kong Ming, let's go, whether he can escape his life depends on our luck."

Zhuge Liang shed tears, nodded, and said with a sob: "Thank you, if you can go back alive this time, Liang will definitely find this justice for your lord."

Uncle Liu's luck and experience in escaping was indeed not a big deal. He did not flee west directly with Zhuge Liang. He just picked up places with few people and ran away from the chaotic battlefield. He immediately put Zhuge Liang down his war horse and ran on foot with Zhuge Liang on his back. When he encountered the Xuzhou army chasing and fled into the grass, he also drilled into the diversion ditches dug by the people of Xuchang several times, making him covered in mud, which made him even more difficult to attract the attention of the Xuzhou army. However, the Xuzhou army was still stupid and only cared about chasing the Huangshu army brigade, and he was still not very careful about the Huangshu army soldiers who escaped alone. As a result, he once again gave Liu Huangshu a chance to escape.

The too open battlefield gave Liu Huangshu a chance to escape. Cai Mao and Huang She, who were still conscientious, also helped Liu Huangshu. After receiving the news of the defeat of the Emperor's army, Cai Mao and Huang She did not leave the cannon fodder of the Emperor's army and sent nearly 10,000 troops to support him. As a result, although the Jingzhou army collapsed in just a moment by the morale Xuzhou army, it increased the chaos on the entire battlefield, allowing Liu Huangshu to

With Zhuge Liang on his back, he still escaped to the secret place of grass and trees far away from the battlefield. He also dug two shallow pits to let himself and Zhuge Liang lie in, covered Zhuge Liang with weeds and soil, and finally ordered: "Kongming, cover our faces with weeds and soil, leaving only our noses to breathe. As long as we persist until dark, we have hope to return to the camp. It doesn't matter if Cai Mao and the others retreated across the river. I can water and bring dry food."
