Chapter 1289 Test Camp
Zhuge Liang's reply is very simple, with only four words: "You can fight!"
Liu Bei's face was a little ugly at that time, and he felt that he had been fooled by Ma Chao again. But Liu Bei couldn't figure out what went wrong that day.
Looking at Zhuge Liang's busy pile of bottles and cans, Liu Bei finally couldn't help saying, "Military, why did Ma Chao provoke me so much that day?"
"Because he is testing you, seeing through your heart and seeing through your nature, and then can he give you Jingzhou at ease." Zhuge Liang was not as indifferent as usual this time, but fell into the anxiety of unsolved problems, so he directly said the reason.
Liu Bei's face was even worse. Before this dispatch of the army, Zhuge Liang took such a pile of bottles and cans and specially told the transporters to handle them gently. He doesn't seem to be interested in the major events of the war. A counselor and strategist, who had done so, had already derete his duty, and Liu Bei was not a person who indulged his subordinates. He looked at Zhuge Liang and continued to ask in a very slow but firm tone, "Military, what is the victory or defeat in this battle?"
Zhuge Liang felt that Liu Bei was slightly angry. He stopped his busyness and restored the calmness of a river. He picked up the unrelented goose feather fan and shook it. He walked out of the table and found a place to signal Liu Bei to sit down before bowing and apologized: "Lord, Liang has been studying a kind of national weapon recently. If there is So. The iron horse of the Ma family is also difficult to be its power. This is a powerful move, which has delayed the war. I hope the lord will not be blamed.
"What is it?" Liu Bei was surprised and didn't expect that Zhuge Liang still had such a ability.
"It has not been successful yet, and it may be difficult to succeed in a lifetime. At this time, it is inevitable to increase the smile." Zhuge Liang just shook his head. It seemed that he didn't want to talk too much about it until it was studied out.
However, he was extremely quick-thinking and didn't wait for Liu Bei to continue to ask, so he took the initiative to change the topic: "Although Liang didn't listen to things outside the window these days, he also knew the general situation. It's okay to go to this battle. As long as the lord is indomitable, he can definitely take Sun Ce's camp. It is not even possible to break through the Jiangdong Army.
"Oh?" Looking at Zhuge Liang's appearance, Liu Bei couldn't help but raise a touch of confidence. Zhan Yan asked, "Why is the military division so sure?"
"Because Sun Ce is not dead at all, Zhou Yu's trick can be concealed from others, but it can't be hidden from the three people here."
Liu Bei silently counted in his mind: Zhuge Lang must be one of these three people, and Ma supernaturally also saw through Zhou Yu's plan. Does the third person mean? .......
"The military division means that the ugly teenager beside Ma Chao is also a wise man." Although this is an interrogative sentence, Liu Bei's tone is very certain. Somehow, the teenager's face appeared when Liu Bei was neutral at that moment.
"What's more," Zhuge Liang suddenly showed a strange look, but still sincerely praised: "The man is bold and unruly, but it is not an exaggeration to describe his methods as unpredictable. Does the lord still remember the danger of Chang'an two years ago? This is the director!"
"What?!" Liu Bei suddenly stood up. Since he got Zhuge Liang, he really understood the importance of an excellent counselor to a group. And now Zhuge Liang has a sideline in his heart. If he can hold the teenager over, why don't he add wings to the tiger?
What's more, what I saw today is not a unified relationship between him and Ma Chao, let alone disharmony. As for the identity of the court servant... At the beginning, in Xuchang, a Taifu with a rank of 2,000 stones was not as good as a councilor in the west of Cao Cao's Sikong Mansion. Liu Bei felt that if the teenager was really smart, he would understand how to choose.
But then saw the strange look on Zhuge Liang's face. Liu Bei knew that he was afraid that he could not discuss this matter with Zhuge Liang, and now he also changed the topic and said, "The military division knows that Sun Ce was cheated to death. Is it not right for me to attack this time?"
"That's why the lord may win." Zhuge Liang seemed to be a little restless at this time, but he only smiled proudly: "If the lord doesn't believe it, you will know it at a try. If you return after losing the battle, you are willing to receive the punishment!"
Liu Bei comforted Zhuge Liang, and then ordered troops to return to Sun Ce's battalion. He looked at Chen and Zhang Fei's generals beside him and said slowly, "Anyway, the battle of its battalion is inevitable today. Third brother, you are responsible for the main attack, tearing the defense of Jiangdong Army on one front and one front. No matter how strong Zhou Yu's counterattack is, you will suppress him for me. Uncle Zhi, you lead the big-eared cavalry and are ready to fight at any time. I form a conical array behind Yide. As long as the front is broken, the back will all rush up and tear the broken mouth to the largest to let Zhou Yu expose his belly!"
Finally, it may be to motivate the soldiers or comfort himself. Liu Bei said loudly, "The 10,000 elites of Yunchang should also rush to the river in the future. Can everyone dare to serve their lives and let Yun Changbai run?"
"Hahaha," Zhang Fei laughed when he heard the words: "If the second brother really saw the white robe, wouldn't his face be more red?"
The generals and soldiers burst into laughter, and their morale was definitely not low. Zhang Fei then roared again, stepped on the Wuqi horse and took the first to fight with his elite soldiers.
But when we really fought, we found that Zhou Yu was indeed using drag words to decide. He only defends, not attacks. In the face of Liu Bei's army with high morale, Jiangdong's military camp is at a disadvantage, but when it comes to war, Zhou Yu's ability is indeed above Liu Bei. Zhang Fei's rapid sprint, Chen's fierce breakthrough, Liu Bei's steady attack, cooperation can be regarded as seamless, ordinary people face such an attack with low morale, even if there are many people, I'm afraid that the barracks have been scattered for a long time.
However, although the Jiangdong army also retreated, it retreated in a measured and confident position. Zhou Yu is extremely accurate in where to give up, where to fight, where to give up before fighting, and where to let the enemy lead the enemy into his own encirclement. In this way, Liu Bei suffered a great loss. Although he tried his best to attack, he could not launch a complete offensive. It feels like walking on the dirt road in big boots, no matter how hard it is, it's uncomfortable to walk.
He is uncomfortable, and Zhou Yu is even more uncomfortable at this time. With the passage of time, both sides have been really angry. At this moment, Zhou Yu stood on the watchtower, quickly issued military orders passed to the battalions, while observing Liu Bei's offensive. However, seeing that the Jiangdong battalion and Liu Bei's army had entered the stage of holding each other, and even Liu Bei took Cai Mao's army to join the melee, but Ma Chao stood still in front of the gate of the battalion, with 20,000 Nanyang elites behind him, and they were more like standing wood.
"Military division! Ding Fengying, the right wing of the big camp, retreated 50 steps!" Another order came up, which made Zhou Yu's handsome face, which had been anxious and destroyed, even more angry.
"Two thousand people were transferred from my personal guards to support and told Ding Feng that this was the last batch of reinforcements. If you can't resist Zhang Fei's attack, don't come back to see me!"
"But... the soldiers shot arrows for two hours, and the archer's fingers couldn't stand it!"
Zhou Yu suddenly turned around and replied with an expression on his face, "If your finger is broken, use your mouth; if your mouth is cracked, use your teeth. What I want is archery, not an excuse.
The messenger had never seen Zhou Yu's fierce side. He left with his orders. After a while, a torrent of arrows hit Zhang Fei's cavalry, and a burst of blood fog immediately rose.
But this effect did not soften Zhou Yu's face. Lu Su beside him was silent for a long time and finally said, "Gong Jin, lift the bottom card. It's also good to stay here if you can't swallow Ma Chao's elite.
"No, Ma Chao's elite is undefeated, and we still can't turn the situation around. What's more, Liu Bei has now invested 50,000 troops, and all of them have been eaten by us. It's really not worth the loss!" Zhou Yu punched the armrest of the watchtower fiercely, suddenly gritted his teeth, and ordered, "Sing, the army retreat!"
"Gong Jin!" Lu Su's face changed greatly: "Are you crazy?"
"No, Ma Chao is obviously also testing our bottom line. I will give up this camp this time!" Zhou Yu gritted his teeth, and his fierce momentum was no less than Sun Ce: "As long as Huang Zu can ensure that he can smoothly bypass Huarong Road, even if the camp retreats a hundred miles, it will be our victory!"
Lu Su was silent. He knew that Zhou Yu was gambling, but the price was too high, and he was a little uncertain. What's more, he didn't expect that a Ma Chao appeared so quietly on the battlefield. He didn't even really go to the battlefield and forced hundreds of thousands of troops in Jiangdong to such a end, which made him even more afraid.
'Now it seems that only Gongjin's fight can completely defeat Ma Chao... Lu Su thought so, but the corners of his eyes seemed to see something unbelievable, and his whole body froze in place: "Gongjin, look there!"
Zhou Yu followed Lu Su's guidance and looked at it, and then the whole person was shocked...
