Chapter 480 Opportunity Appears
However, if no one asked such a question, Guo Tu would obviously be a little unspeakable: read the novel, so Guo Tu told the question himself.
"You may think at this moment: If that's the case, why do I suggest sending troops to help Cao Cao? Isn't this helping the evil and raising the tiger to cause trouble?!" Guo Tu said.
Xu You from there curled his lips disdainfully: Tell me, who would think so? He really treats us as idiots!
"Actually, we will be clear when we look at it for a long time. If we sit still, Cao Cao will definitely defeat Lu Bu first and then defeat Liu Bei. This will defeat each one! And what if Lu Bu and Liu Bei can unite? Then can Cao Cao defeat them easily? Can he easily take Xuzhou?!" Guo Tu said.
"So that's it!" Xin Ping said. Although this may make people feel that he is not as good as Guo Tu, he and Guo Tu are on the same side, so naturally they don't care about this kind of thing. "The reason why Lu Bu is still fighting hard with Cao Cao is that Lu Bu thinks he still has a chance of winning. If this continues, Lu Bu's troops will be completely wiped out by Cao's army! So, we will go to help Cao Cao at this time and add a fire to Lu Bu, so that Lu Bu can't find any chance of winning at all, so Lu Bu will only have one way to escape. In this way, it will be able to retain Lu Bu's vitality!"
"While everyone is looking at the world, although Liu Biao had friction with Cao Cao, he was our ally, so Lu Bu would definitely not be able to defect to Liu Biao. In addition, Lu Bu was excluded by Yuan Shu and naturally he could not go back. As for Li Jue and Guo Si, he was the one who directly defeated Lu Bu out of Chang'an. As for Gongsun Zan, he was defeated by Lu Bu in front of Hulao Pass and was obviously unable to tolerate Lu Bu as a general of white horse. Then Lu Bu could only defect to Liu Bei! As for Liu Bei, although he knew that Lu Bu was a wolf and tiger. But in order to resist Cao Cao, he had to leave Lu Bu and unite with Lu Bu." Guo Tuzhong took the words back, "In this way, we not only helped Cao Cao, but also restricted Cao Cao's development. It is necessary to send troops in a reasonable and plan manner!"
"Okay! Well said!" Yuan Shao couldn't help but exclaim. "You guys will learn more from Guo Tu in the future. If all of you have such a long-term vision, then why worry about the big thing going to happen!"
"Where is there, the lord praised it. I believe that the other adults must have thought of it a long time ago." Guo Tu replied quickly.
"Good but not arrogant! Good! Good!" Yuan Shao tugged his hands.
It seems that not only Guo Jia is doing well in Cao Cao, but Guo Tu is also in a mess with Yuan Shao. The Guo family has been revived!
......
In Yanzhou, Dingtao, because it is the autumn harvest season, when the nearby wheat is ripe, Cao Cao will send people to cut wheat for food. As a matter of fact, it can naturally alleviate the pressure on food and grass in Cao Cao's camp. Of course, Cao Cao is not short of food now, so the real reason for this is to prevent Lu Bu from sending people to cut wheat.
Since Lu Bu was short of food, Cao Cao naturally would not leave Lu Bu even a little chance to return the food! Instead of leaving it to Lu Bu, it would be better to cut the wheat first, right!
Against this background, on this day, Cao Cao sent out the wheat harvester to get close contact with Lu Bu's men!
You should know that in order to prevent sudden changes and to be able to attack Lu Bu at any time, Cao Cao could not send too many people to cut wheat. Moreover, most of the people sent out were old, weak and disabled soldiers with low combat power, which was considered to take advantage of some surplus value. But on the contrary, when Lu Bu went out to cut wheat, in order to prevent being discovered and defeated by Cao's army, Lu Bu must be cautious, and the ones he brought out would be elite soldiers.
The difference in strength between the two is so obvious! With such a strength comparison, even if Lu Bu wiped out all the people here, Cao Cao's rescue army should not have time to arrive.
But in this situation, a dramatic scene occurred.
That is, Lu Bu didn't even beat him, and he was scared away by that?!
Could it be that Lu Bu has been beaten to the point where all plants and trees are all soldiers by Cao Cao? Just like a mouse encounters a cat, he only listens to his voice, but before he sees him, he is frightened and pissed off, and he doesn't even care about the facts of strength and weakness? Is this the world's number one Lu Bu Lu Fengxian?!
"Can Lu Bu get into the trap too much before, so he thinks we are also a trick to lure the enemy this time?" Cao Cao murmured.
Guo Jia thought for a while and said,
"It's very likely! After all, the strength of the two sides was too great at that time. Even Lu Bu thought that it was the bait we deliberately wanted to lure him over! In addition, there was a dense forest not far away, which was a good place to ambush troops, so Lu Bu was scared back directly."
In the past, Cao Cao would have laughed a lot, but now, Cao Cao is a little confused.
"Lu Bu was unexpectedly cautious. He did not attack without authorization when the two armies met by chance. So can we still have the chance to pull him out?" Cao Cao said with a frown.
"Ha! I think this is a rare opportunity!" Guo Jia smiled.
"Oh? What do you say?" Cao Cao quickly asked for advice.
"I know Lu Bu's personality very well. He is not the kind of person who will be easily willing. Now that Lu Bu speculates that we have ambushed in the forest, we should take the opportunity to let him determine this 'fact'. Once Lu Bu confirms this matter, he has been plotting against us, he will definitely be unable to help but come out to take revenge!" Guo Jia said.
Cao Cao's eyes lit up and he immediately said,
"In other words, Lu Bu will come out to set fire to the forest?!"
"There is a great possibility!" Guo Jia said, "At that time, we just need to secretly hide the elite soldiers in other places. Once Lu Bu really comes to burn the forest, he will cut off his retreat from behind. At that time, there will be the fire that Lu Bu himself set off, and behind us will be our ambush. Then Lu Bu can be captured!" Guo Jia said.
Cao Cao thought about it seriously and said,
"I remember there is a long dike in the west of the village. Now the water is here, so all the elite troops can be buried here."
"Okay, it's not too late. With Lu Bu's impatient personality, he might come to burn the forest tomorrow. We should prepare early!" Guo Jia said hurriedly.
"That's right. We immediately sent people to the forest to plant more flags to confuse Lu Bu and make him convinced that we had ambushed soldiers in the forest. Then we left some people to beat drums and shout in the camp, and continued to confuse them. The remaining elite soldiers all went to the long dike of Xizhai to ambush!" Cao Cao made an arrangement in an instant. Although Lu Bu might not come out, all of these may be hard work, but since this possibility exists and the possibility is not small, Cao Cao is worth a try!
In Dingtao City, Lu Bu told Chen Gong what happened today.
"...That's it. I suspect that there are Cao Cao's ambush in the forest, so I came back directly."
Chen Gongtou,
"Cao Cao has many tricks, so we should not underestimate the enemy. Fengxiao, you did it right this time. That situation is not worth taking risks at all. It is better to be careful!" To be continued, please search for Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
