Chapter 558: Plan
When the Wuling army attacked, Cao Cao immediately ordered a retreat. However, he was attacked by cavalry such as the personal guard camp, so why did Cao's army retreat in a mess?
In order to cover the retreat of the soldiers, Cao Cao had to order the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and the Tiger Guard to cut off the rear! In the Cao army, except for these two elite troops, the other soldiers no longer had the courage to fight with the Wuling Army again.
"General Xu Chu, you go first!"
During the chaos, Cao Chun shouted to Xu Chu.
"good!"
Xu Chu looked at the situation on the battlefield and found that the Wuling Army cavalry were encircling and suppressing soldiers fleeing everywhere. Their Tiger Guards were also infantrymen. If they did not run away under the encirclement and suppression of the cavalry, they would basically not be able to escape.
"General Cao Chun, be careful!"
Before leaving, Xu Chu explained.
The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry cut off the back alone, and the task was a bit heavy. However, the Wuling Army used cavalry to pursue the back and used infantry to cut off the back, which was completely a death sentence.
The cavalry may have a chance to escape after completing the mission. After all, Cao Chun led the elite cavalry of the Cao army.
When Zhang Xiong and other generals entered the battlefield, the battle had come to an end. Cao's army chose to retreat under the intimidation of the cavalry.
The infantry of the Wuling Army could only participate in the encirclement and suppression of Cao's army who had no time to escape.
In this battle, Cao's army suffered more than 10,000 casualties and nearly 3,000 captured soldiers.
The first battle of Cao Cao's counterattack was shattered by the Wuling army led by Wu Shun. Because of his low morale, Cao Cao, who returned in failure, would not launch a second attack for the time being.
After winning this great victory, the morale of the Wuling army was greatly boosted, and the generals all had the idea of asking for orders to attack Cao's camp.
However, Wu Shun rejected the generals before the time came.
In fact, with the current military power of the Wuling Army, it can already shock most sluts. The strength of Yizhou has made many haters despair.
Moreover, the Wuling Army was stationed on the front line of Hulao Pass, which was a huge threat to Cao Cao. If he didn't solve it one day, he would not be able to develop with peace of mind.
Wu Shun wanted this effect. Cao Cao could not develop with peace of mind, but Yizhou could do it. He was very happy to do such things that harm others and benefit himself.
Everyone is an opponent and never talks about fair competition. As long as the world can kill the opponent, no matter what means it is used, it is not an exaggeration to use.
The winner is the king, the loser is the bandit, it is so cruel!
Thirty miles outside Hulao Pass, Cao's camp.
Cao Cao summoned his generals to discuss how to resolve the crisis in Hulao Pass.
"Lord, the Wuling Army is guarding Hulao Pass to the death, and the strong attack may be difficult to work. The last general thinks that he should use a strategy to lead the Wuling Army out and gather and traitor him!"
Cao Ren went out to the streets. He came from Yuzhou specifically because he was ordered by Cao Cao.
"General Zixiao is right. Lord, since Hulao Pass cannot be attacked, he will not use other methods."
Xun You went out to the streets.
He was the military advisor appointed by Cao Cao, and he did not agree with the forced attack on Hulao Pass. It was Cao Cao who wanted to exert the momentum of Cao's army, so he did not adopt his suggestions.
"Lord, the Wuling Army cavalry can always turn the tide at critical moments. My subordinates think that if they try to limit their cavalry, they will have the opportunity to defeat the Wuling Army."
Chen Yu said.
This time when fighting against the Wuling Army, Cao Cao led more than Xun You. Little did Wu Shun also attached great importance to the war with the Cao army and brought all his three major advisers. Cao Cao had one Xun Yu left in the rear to govern everything.
"Zhongde, can we limit Wu Shun's cavalry?"
Cao Cao asked. The Wuling Army's cavalry's strength was amazing. Chen Yu said that he wanted to limit it, and Cao Cao's interest suddenly arose.
"Cabinets are the main focus on terrain when fighting. If the terrain is wide, then cavalry will be invincible."
Chen Yu said only this sentence and stopped talking because Cao Cao already knew what he meant.
"How to lead the Wuling Army out of Hulao Pass? Wu Shun is not that easy to cheat."
Cao Cao said.
"Don't worry, lord, there are still ways to lead out the Wuling Army."
Xun Youdao.
"I hope to hear it carefully!"
Cao Cao and a group of Cao army generals were waiting for Xun You to express his thoughts.
"The Wuling Army's cavalry has strong combat power, but the cavalry is not good at night. The lord can send a small number of soldiers to harass them. If the Wuling Army does not care about it, it will use a plan of exhaustion. If the Wuling Army chases out, it can lead it out of the pass and annihilate it."
"The Wuling Army also often uses the exhausted military strategy, so it may be difficult to work."
Cao Ren opposed.
"Yes, the three major military advisors of the Wuling Army are all masters of tricks."
Cao Cao's way.
How to deal with the Wuling Army is really a headache. But Wu Shun came out when he was weak, and the time point was too accurate.
"Lord, you are not weak and lead troops to attack the city, and then pretend to be defeated, leading Wuling Army to pursue it!"
Cao Chun goes out of the street.
In today's battle, he was responsible for the palace rear, and the ruthlessness of the Wuling Army chasing them was still fresh in his memory.
"You can try it!"
Cao Ren agreed with Cao Chun’s view.
"The Wuling Army won one game, and with the unprecedented victory, my pride was greatly aroused. As long as I have the chance, I will definitely pursue it!"
Cao Rendao.
"Okay, two days later, attack Hulao Pass again, and the generals will follow the plan!..."
Cao Cao stood up and explained the tasks of the generals.
In Hulao Pass, Wu Shun and the generals were drinking wine to celebrate today's victory.
Zhang Xiong, Wei Yan and others were drinking it with a drink. Zhao Yun also drank some wine, but on the front line, he was not as heroic as Zhang Xiong and the others.
Because of his responsibilities, Qu'a drip wine did not touch her, and she stood quietly beside Wu Shun.
"Qua, go down and have some wine with everyone. Feel the atmosphere of victory."
Wu Shun said. He, Zhuge Liang, Xu Shu and Fa Zheng, had already drunk a lot.
"Lord, I can feel this atmosphere without drinking."
Qu'a refused to drink, although she wanted to drink it.
God’s wine, who can resist this temptation by those who are good at wine?
But Qu A resisted it because his primary task was to ensure Wu Shun's safety.
"Haha, lord, don't be in danger of General Qu A. As a personal guard, he cannot leave his post without hesitation!"
Zhuge Liang said, raising his wine glass and drinking with Wu Shun.
"Okay, Qua, you can work hard today and go back and get a jar of top-quality immortal wine."
Wu Shun used the alcohol to speak.
"Thank you lord!"
Qu'a was very happy, the best fairy wine.
After thanking him, he looked around and he was relieved until he found that no one heard Wu Shun's words.
If others know that he can get the best fairy wine, he will not be envious of him to death, and then he will have to pester him to drink every day.
Qu A hadn't obtained this jar of the best wine yet, and he had already planned to drink it. Drink half of the jar himself, and half of the jar of filial piety to his master Wang Yue.
This black guard commander treats him very well.
The celebration banquet for the Wuling Army did not end until late at night, and the discussions on Cao's camp continued until late at night.
After the banquet, Wu Shun closed his eyes and thought about how to take the next step. Continuing to stay in Hulao Pass put pressure on Cao Cao, or taking the initiative to attack and further oppress Cao****** if he is anxious, it will be bad if he jumps over the wall."
