Chapter 147 Brother-In-Law Said That The Big-Eared Thief Is Going To Set Fire To Xinye! 【2】
Cao Zhang froze, and said urgently: "Your Highness has a wonderful plan, could it be that he has figured out what kind of poisonous tricks Zhuge Liang will use against his father?"
"Let me think about it."
Liu Wu stood up, came to the large map hanging on the wall, and stared in thought.
His gaze has moved from Wancheng to Jingzhou, wandering between the various cities.
"It must be here!"
Liu Wu pointed at the map.
Cao Zhang followed Liu Wu's expectations, and his eyes fell on the word "Xinye".
"Newfield?"
He looked blank, and looked back at Liu Wu.
"Liu Bei has fought for a long time, and he has Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu as his assistants. Even if he heard that the king had destroyed Yuan Shang and returned to the army, the morale of the army was shaken, but he would not abandon a large amount of military resources and flee south in embarrassment.
"Thus, this king is sure that he is deliberately showing weakness, and wants to lure his father-in-law to lead an army to pursue him, so that he can send his father-in-law to Xinye City."
"Xinye City is where Liu Bei fought back!"
Liu Wu's fingers were a little heavy, and his tone was firm.
Cao Zhang was still confused, and hurriedly asked again: "Father, although his martial arts is not as good as His Highness, he is not an ordinary person. Even if Zhuge Liang has tricks, how can he defeat father in Xinye?"
"This king guessed that Zhuge Liang's strategy must be..."
Liu Wu didn't rush, so he slowly pointed out the poisonous tricks that Zhuge Liang might offer to Liu Bei.
Cao Zhang's face changed with horror, and he said in surprise: "This trick is so deceitful, unless it is His Highness, who would have thought that if Liu Bei really uses this trick, I'm afraid my father will definitely fall into it!"
"If Guo Fengxiao was by his father-in-law's side, he would definitely be able to see through Zhuge Liang's plan."
Liu Wu sighed: "It's a pity that Feng Xiao is still on the way back to the south, and there is only Zhang Liao beside my father-in-law. I'm afraid most of them won't be able to see through Zhuge Liang's plan."
Cao Zhang shivered, and hurriedly said, "Your Highness, what should we do now?"
"You go south quickly and warn your father-in-law, maybe it's still too late.
"This king will secretly lead his cavalry to Wancheng. If he can join his father-in-law, he will go south to attack Jingzhou and destroy Liu Bei!"
Liu Wu ordered without thinking.
Cao Zhang immediately took the order and resigned.
"Your Highness, father, will he be okay?"
Cao Jie worried about Cao Cao's safety and asked nervously.
Liu Wu counted with his fingers, and said lightly: "If your brother is fast enough, he should be barely in time, but it depends on the luck of his father-in-law.
Cao Jie breathed a sigh of relief, and his uneasiness subsided a little.
Liu Wu embraced her in his arms and said with a smile: "My lord is going south tomorrow to settle the grievances with Liu Bei, let's not think about anything tonight, just be happy!
When all the concubines heard that Liu Wu was going to fight again, they all felt very sad.
Mi Huan said cheerfully: "My husband's ambition is in the world, how can we drag him down, sisters, we will serve him well tonight, let him have a good time, and we can go to war tomorrow to wipe out Jingzhou!"
This remark reminded all the beauties that a group of concubines surrounded her.
In the palace, there was loud and hearty laughter.
Jingzhou, Xinye City.
Five miles south of the city.
In the woods, nearly ten thousand Jingzhou soldiers were quietly warehoused in the woods.
And on the southward road outside the forest, tens of thousands of Jingzhou troops were abandoning their weapons and equipment along the way, pretending to flee in a hurry.
On the edge of the woods.
Liu Bei immediately looked to the north, but there was anxiety on his gray face.
Huang Zhong and other generals on the left and right also looked anxious.
Only Zhuge Liang was idly shaking his feather fan, planning strategies and controlling everything calmly.
for a moment.
Zhang Xiu came galloping on his horse, cupped his hands and said, "My lord, Cao Cao has led 20,000 Qi troops into Xinye City!"
Liu Bei looked overjoyed, and looked at Zhuge Liang anxiously: "Military Master, you really know everything like a god, Cao Cao has taken the bait!"
Zhuge Liang was not surprised, he just said indifferently: "General Zhang, can you properly arrange the things that Liang told you?"
"Reporting to the military commander, I have stored firewood, firewood and oil all over the city, and they are all hidden very well. Unless Cao Cao knows our strategy and sends troops to search strictly, otherwise it will be impossible to find it!"
Reported by Zhang Xiu.
"very good."
Liu Bei nodded in praise and said, "If this battle is successful, the first contribution will be yours!"
"This is the lord's wisdom, and it is Kong Ming's strategist's ingenious strategy. The last general just obeyed orders and did what he deserved. M
Zhang Xiu was modest, and hatred appeared on his face: "What's more, Cao Cao humiliated the general at the beginning, and the general hated him so much that he wished to kill him with his own hands. My lord just helped the general realize his wish this time!"
Zhuge Liang smiled at Liu Bei and said, "My lord, the thief Cao has already taken the bait. Please lead my army back immediately, kill Cao Cao, and present Liu Wu with a surprise!"
"good!"
Liu Bei laughed wildly, and shouted: "The whole army obeys the order, immediately follow me back to Xinye!"
In the woods, more than ten thousand Jingzhou troops followed Liu Bei and turned back to Xinye City at night.
Newfield.
The city is already full of rice fragrance.
Cao Cao led an army of 20,000, all the way south from Wancheng, chasing hundreds of miles, the soldiers were exhausted.
Tonight, Xinye City was captured without bloodshed, and a large amount of grain and supplies in the city were obtained.
Cao Cao then ordered that all the captured soldiers be rewarded and let them have a good dinner.
"Reporting to Sikong, there is wine and meat for dinner, and the morale of the soldiers has recovered a lot."
Zhang Liao came to report.
"That's good."
Cao Cao nodded slightly, and asked again: "How is the city defense patrol arrangement tonight?"
Zhang Liao clasped his hands and said, "Sikong, don't worry, soldiers and horses have been deployed at the four gates, and sentries and patrols have been deployed in every street in the city. Even if Liu Bei leads an army to attack, we can calmly deal with it."
However, Cao Cao breathed a sigh of relief and said: "So I can rest assured. After all, Liu Bei has Wolong's assistant, so he should not be underestimated. I am worried that he retreated all the way south, but deliberately showing weakness, so that our army can relax its vigilance and kill us in turn. Caught off guard."
*- Sikong is worried.
"Liu Bei hastily retreated all the way, it is indeed a bit suspicious, we have to guard against it."
Zhang Liao agreed.
Cao Cao took a sip of his wine and sighed softly: "Anyway, Liu Bei fled too fast, and we didn't give us a chance to fight him at all. Xinye is further south to Hanshui. We must not go too deep into the hinterland of Jingzhou. Just stop at Xinye!"
"As it should."
Zhang Liao nodded and said: "Xinye is the gate of Jingzhou, and we have made great contributions to taking Xinye down. After His Royal Highness Qi Wang leads the army to join us, we will continue to go south, and it will not be too late to flatten Jingzhou.
When Cao Cao smiled, he told Zhang Liao to sit down, ordered him to serve wine and meat, and had a drink with him.
A glass of wine just fell into my throat.
The personal guard entered the hall, cupped his hands and said, "Report to Sikong, Mr. Ziwen has rushed back and is outside the hall."
"He didn't stay in Xudu, why did he come back?"
Suspicion flashed across Cao Cao's eyes, and he said, "Let him in."
Before the words fell, the guards had no time to communicate.
Cao Zhang rushed into the hall first, and Da (good) shouted: "Father, the king of Qi has an order to ask father to abandon Xinye City immediately, and quickly abandon the army and retreat north!"
Cao Cao's expression was shocked.
Zhang Liao also showed a hint of surprise.
Cao Cao asked urgently, "Ziwen, Xinye is the gate of Jingzhou. Since the father has captured it, why did your brother-in-law withdraw for the father?"
Cao Zhang said in a deep voice: "Brother-in-law, he said that Liu Bei pretended to be in a state of turmoil in the army and retreated in a hurry, just to attract his father to chase south. Liu Bei must have laid an ambush outside Xinye City, waiting to catch his father by surprise!"
"I see."
Cao Cao breathed a sigh of relief, but said with a sneer, "Liu Bei is deceitful, and I have thought about it as a father, so I have been on strict guard all the time. Even if Liu Bei has ambushes around Xinye, he will never succeed.
"good."
"We set up heavy guards at all four gates, and there are patrols in the city. Even if Liu Bei leads the army to attack, there is no need to be afraid."
Zhang Liao also agreed.
Cao Zhang said anxiously: "Father, brother-in-law, he said that Liu Bei must use Zhuge Liang's strategy to hide firewood and oil everywhere in the city. He is not going to lead the army to storm Xinye. He wants to burn Xinye!"
