Chapter 283: Cao Mengde asks for a plan, Liu Biao's troops leave Xiangyang
"Cao Jun really should not be underestimated!"
Dongfangqiang secretly said that although Cao's troops at the pass retreated, their formation was not chaotic at all, and they withdrew from the battlefield in an orderly manner, without giving Dongfangqiang a chance to come out of the pass and pursue him.
"General Dongfang, you and I only need to guard the Hangu Pass! When the lord comes back from victory, he can leave the pass and fight with the coalition forces of the princes!"
No matter how hard Cao's army attacked, Hangu Pass remained motionless. Xu Shu's heart was finally settled.
Guarding a pass is not like defending a city, and you don’t need to worry about the enemy attacking other directions.
Here, if Cao Cao's coalition forces want to enter Chang'an, they can only fight to the death with the Zhuque Legion and break Hangu Pass.
In the coalition camp, Cao Cao was on fire. His army attacked fiercely regardless of casualties, even though he could not even get up to the wall!
"Wenruo, Gongda, the Hangu Pass is strictly defended, like a natural danger. Do you two have any tricks to teach me?"
He couldn't figure it out and found a military advisor. This time, Cao Cao brought Xun Yu and Xun You two uncles and nephews.
"Lord, Wu Shun wanted to use this Hangu Pass to stop our coalition from advancing westward. The small pass had arranged 40,000 troops, and all the food, grass and supplies were available. Moreover, the main general of the guard gate was unbeaten in the east, and he was a general promoted by Wu Shun to the end of the last minute. He could not persuade him to surrender. For the current plan, he could only attack vigorously and attack continuously, and consume his materials to prevent the enemy from rotating. Only then did our coalition army have the opportunity to break through this dangerous pass!" Xun Yu said.
It is impossible to get rid of the Wuling Army general. Schemes such as night attacks and seducing the enemy are basically useless.
Dongfang Qiang and Xu Shu had long been planning to defend Hangu Pass, and they never thought of going out to fight!
Therefore, if Cao Cao's alliance wants to break Hangu Pass, he can only attack as strongly as today.
"Lord, greetings, General Sun, why are our three families attacking in turn and not let the East have a chance to breathe. When the Wuling Army is exhausted, you can rush forward and break through this pass!"
Xun You didn't have a good idea either. He felt that his uncle had said just now. As long as he launched a continuous attack, how long can the Wuling army stop?
"In this way, although there are opportunities, there are too many casualties!" Cao Cao said.
It would be OK to fight like this, but the coalition forces would suffer a lot! Now that Yuan Shao is eyeing him in the north, Cao Cao is not very relieved.
It’s not clear when Yuan Shao will hit them from behind! After all, Yuan Shao did not join the alliance, and it is said that his relationship with Wu Shun is very subtle.
"Brother Meng De, since there is no way, then continue to attack."
The strength of the Wuling Army inspired Lu Bu's ambitions. He remembered that there was a general who could compete with him.
Lu Bu hasn't fought happily for a long time. Even Sun Ce is not his opponent when it comes to fighting alone!
"Just as Mr. Wen Ruo said. Starting tomorrow, we will take turns to attack!"
Sun Ce sat aside without saying a word, Zhou Yu said for him.
"Okay, then I'll just set an hour to attack and then change to another team!"
"Can!"
"It should be so!"
In a few simple words, the Caojun Alliance's attack strategy against Hangu Pass was determined.
In Jingzhou, Liu Biao sent his nephew Zhang Yun to command 100,000 troops to kill Xiang Linyuan. He also sent Cai Mao to lead 50,000 naval troops to kill Xiang Yuanjiang. He wanted to take the opportunity to pull out the 20,000 Wuling naval troops led by Gan Ning.
The 100,000 troops in Jingzhou were approaching, and the situation in Linyuan was suddenly tense!
"General Wen, all the people who can mobilize have been mobilized!"
Shi Guangyuan was the prefect of Wuling appointed by Wu Shun. He was not as good as Zhuge Liang, Xu Shu and others in terms of military advisorship, but he was also somewhat insightful.
But Shi Guangyuan, like Cui Zhouping, is better at politics.
"Master Shi, please send someone to Wuxi for help. Twenty thousand people guard the city, Wenpin was unsure! In view of the mistress, Wuxi would definitely send reinforcements."
Liu Biao dispatched a total of 150,000 troops, clearly trying to eat up the entire Wuling County. It is true that Wenpin is good at defending the city, but the enemy is nearly ten times more than him, so he has no absolute confidence.
"Since that's the case, I have to send someone to ask for help!"
Wuxi Man was greatly favored by Wu Shun and had sent 20,000 children to join the Canglang Legion. However, this was the disaster in Wuling County.
If Wenpin could not stop Zhang Yun, Linyuan would be lost, and then the entire Wuling County would be taken back by Liu Biao.
At that time, it was a disaster for Wuxi Man. Liu Biao was not like Wu Shun and would treat everyone equally.
"Working on the third line, is the lord right or wrong?"
Wen Pin looked at the busy crowd under the city and shook his head: "How could I guess the lord's idea be that I can guess."
No matter what Wu Shun chooses, Wenpin now only needs to protect Linyuan and protect Wuling County.
He knew that Dongfang Qiang and Xu Shu were facing the enemy at Hangu Pass, and the situation was more serious than Linyuan!
Linyuan was the base camp of the Wuling Army in the past and had been managed with great care. When he heard that Liu Biao was coming, many strong and powerful people spontaneously organized themselves to help strengthen the city walls and transport the city guarding materials.
The people were unwilling to let Liu Biao take over Linyuan and Wuling County!
"This is the people's heart, so don't let your lord down!"
Wen Pin secretly swore that Wu Shun did not provide him with support because Hangu Pass was going to play against Cao Cao, Lu Bu and Sun Ce, and Chang'an area was going to play against Ma Teng and Han Sui.
In the end, some soldiers had to be left, and Zhuge Liang was led by the underground opposition forces in Yizhou. They could not be allowed to destroy Wu Shun's plan to go north.
Xiangyang is not too far from Linyuan. In three days, 150,000 troops in Jingzhou were approaching. Cai Mao took 50,000 to find Gan Ning, hoping to avenge the "one arrow" in front of him.
"Dongdongdongdongdong~"
The war drums were in full swing, and the 100,000 horses and infantry in Jingzhou surrounded Linyuan City on three sides. The flags were flying, and the atmosphere was solemn!
"General Huang, when you encounter a diploma, you don't have to care about your old feelings. Everything is focused on siege!"
As the commander of the army, Zhang Yun certainly knew Huang Zhong's power. Because he was afraid that Huang Zhong would not kill Wen Pin if he was not a fan of his old love, he explained it again.
"I will understand!"
In the past, Wen Pin looked down on Huang Zhong very much and intended to promote him, but unfortunately Huang Zhong was not his subordinate. Now he is his master, and Huang Zhong knows that he cannot keep his hands!
"Okay, since that's the case, General Huang will attack this first battle!"
The Jingzhou Army is now Huang Zhong, a powerful general. Zhang Yun wanted to show off the prestige of the Jingzhou Army, so he had to let Huang Zhong fight first!
"The last general will receive the order!"
"The Wuling army rats dare to go out of the city to fight!"
Huang Zhong fought under the city and wanted to fight the generals and kill local generals to increase morale!
"Hmph! Huang Zhong, let me meet him!"
After so long, he had not fought a war, and he was also anxious that the warlike Guan Hai was so anxious. He heard Huang Zhong invite the battle below, so he wanted to go down to meet the enemy!
"Ziwei, don't be impatient. Huang Zhong is very good at martial arts and skilled in archery and horses. You must be very careful when you fight him!"
Fear of war has never been the style of the Wuling Army.
"Kaku..."
After a harsh friction sound, the Linyuan City Gate slowly opened! A general ran out from inside, followed by two thousand soldiers.
"The thief will die!"
Guan Hai slapped the war horse, raised his big sword, and rushed towards Huang Zhong not far away!
"The remnants of the Yellow Turbans are here to die!"
Wen Pin did not go to fight, but instead asked Guan Hai to come. Huang Zhong was determined to make contributions and ran towards Guan Hai with a big knife!
"Huang Zhong is very skilled in martial arts, and he is skilled in bows and horses..."
Guan Hai knew his weight, and when he saw Huang Zhong coming in a fierce manner, he couldn't help but scream!
"die!"
Huang Zhong waved his big sword, went from behind, and slashed towards Guan Hai with the huge force of the horse!
"When~"
"What a wonderful knife technique!"
Guan Hai was shocked and tried hard to block the knife. However, the power was too great. His hand holding the knife cracked and his internal organs were displaced! His combat power was declining sharply.
After more than ten rounds, Guan Hai became more and more frightened.
"It's so strong!"
He felt that Huang Zhong's martial arts were better than himself, and he used a long-handled sword, which had an advantage. In order to save his life, Guan Hai began to look for opportunities to escape.
"Don't run away if you remnants of the Yellow Turban!"
After Guan Hai took the move, he never fought with Huang Zhong again. He turned around and slapped his horse and fled back to his original formation!
"Oh! Oh! Oh~"
