Chapter 873 Xiangyang War II
"It is clear that Cao Cao's intention is known. Now you can make a plan.
Hearing this, Pan Feng and Zhang Fei changed their faces and were surprised. They quickly asked Zhuge Liang.
"What did the military division say? Could it be that Cao Cao was cheating?"
Zhuge Liang smiled indifferently and nodded slightly.
"The southeast corner was mostly destroyed by the antlers due to the war in the past years, and the bricks and soil were old. Previously, some generals told Yu Liang to urge Liang to speed up the repair while Cao Cao's soldiers and horses had not arrived. Liang deliberately didn't allow it, knowing that Cao Cao would find that place in the future, and he would definitely take advantage of it. Cao Cao has been exploring for many days, and he must have found that place. However, Cao Cao went to the northwest to accumulate grass, which was actually a bluff. He wanted to coax me to withdraw his troops to defend the northwest, and he gathered his troops to attack the southeast corner in the dark at night!!"
Pan Feng heard that the phoenix's eyes burst out of light and asked quickly.
"It turns out that the military division has had a plan for a long time. But what can I do!?
Zhuge Liang smiled again, exuding a forceful momentum all over his body, as if the world was within his expectation.
"This is easy. In the future, you can order the strong soldiers in the city, eat and wear light clothes, and hide them all in the southeast houses. However, he also taught the people in the city to pretend to be a sergeant and guard the northwest. At night, Cao's army attacked the southeast corner and entered the city. When he killed near the city, most of his army's horsepower was exhausted. In an instant, there was a sound of artillery, and the ambush rose together. The other army must be in chaos, and Cao Cao can be captured!"
Pan Feng and Zhang Fei were overjoyed when they heard the plan. They all sighed that Zhuge Liang's clever plan was like a god, so they made their own arrangements that night. Pan Feng led Zhuge Liang's military order and ordered all the soldiers and horses to hide in the southeast house. Zhang Fei ordered the people in the city to disguise themselves as soldiers and guard the northwest corner.
The arrangement was made. The next day, Cao Cao, who visited the horse, said that Zhuge Liang was afraid that the army would attack together, so he withdrew his troops in the northwest corner and shouted to defend the city, but the southeast was very empty. Cao Cao listened to the words, looked at Guo Jia and smiled.
"Haha, Zhuge Kongming, you have made a plan!"
Cao Cao was secretly happy, so he ordered all the troops to attack to the northwest corner, but secretly let the virtual attack was enough. There was no need to be tough to attack, keep physical strength, and immediately deployment. The troops obeyed the order and only pretended to attack in detail on the northwest corner.
Gradually, when Cao Cao saw that the time was ripe and was about to lead the elite soldiers to the southeast corner, Guo Jia rushed to report.
"King, wait!!"
Cao Cao was about to give an order when he saw Guo Jia coming, and he suddenly felt a trace of suspicion in his heart and hurriedly asked.
"Gu Zheng wants to wave his troops to the southeast corner, break through Xiangyang, and capture Zhuge Kongming. Why did Fengxiao stop him?"
Guo Jia's eyes were full of urgency, and he bowed.
"Today, Jia saw the soldiers guarding the city, and seeing that our army was close, he was at a loss. Moreover, there are many soldiers with messy armor and uneven formations. It is rumored that Zhuge Liang has a way to train soldiers, and all his soldiers and horses are the elite soldiers who strictly observe discipline. After looking carefully for a long time, the guards in this city may be disguised by the people!!!"
"Is it true!!?"
Cao Cao's eyes stared for a moment, and he only felt cold in his heart. Then he quickly asked Guo Jia.
"According to the opinion of filial piety, where are the soldiers and horses in the city?"
Guo Jia's brain turned, and his eyes were shining brightly. For a moment, he had calculated Zhuge Liang's plan and was eager to go to Cao Cao.
"Yi Jia's opinion. Zhuge Kongming may have found Jia's bluff. Most of them are tricks, hiding soldiers and horses in the southeast corner, just waiting for our army to attack the women's wall in the southeast corner. As soon as our army enters the city and the ambush is exhausted, our army is not as expected, and it is bound to be defeated!!!"
Cao Cao heard the words and hurriedly drove his horse to the city. As Guo Jia said, many of the soldiers defending the city were unarmed and their formation was chaotic. Cao Cao immediately asked someone to get a bow. Cao Cao looked at a general in the city, picked up a bow and shot an arrow, and sent an arrow. As soon as the arrow flew up, the general of the city saw an arrow coming. Before the arrow approached, he was so scared that he shouted sadly and ran away. He was very embarrassed. Cao Cao looked at it and his face was gloomy. He turned to Guo Jia and said.
"It seems that as expected by Feng Xiao, most of the soldiers and horses in this city are disguised by the people. If it hadn't been for the reminder of filial piety, I would have been defeated! What should I do now?"
Guo Jia is known as a ghost talent with profound intelligence. Naturally, she is not in vain. Guo Jia thought about it for a while, and an unruly smile rose from the corners of his mouth.
"Zhuge Liang said that he was extraordinary. If he wanted to make a plan, he would ambush our army. Why didn't the king take advantage of Zhuge Liang's soldiers and horses to the southeast corner and take advantage of the virtual attack the west gate. However, in order to seize the opportunity, the king can immediately send an elite soldier, prepare shovels to climb the city, climb up the city, and induce the ambush in the city to come out. When there was a fight in the southeast corner, our army immediately launched a fierce attack.
On the west gate, it is guarded by the people. If you see our army suddenly attack, it will definitely retreat. The west gate can be broken!"
When Cao Cao heard this, he said with an extremely bright smile.
"Haha!! It's a good plan for filial piety!!"
Cao Cao then followed Guo Jia's order, and the shilling army took advantage of the withdrawal a few miles away, and then sent thousands of elite soldiers to the southeast corner.
Two hours later, the night became darker. The general who led the team of elite soldiers, named Chen Heng, was born as a tiger guard. Because he once used Cao Cao's own arrows, he was reused by Cao Cao and made him a tooth general. Chen Heng led the deployment to the southeast corner, and his eyes burst into bright light. He recalled the scene of Cao Cao's dialogue with him just now.
"Chen Heng, you used to be the guardian of the orphan. In the past, in the battle of Hebei, you used to block an arrow as an arrow as an orphan. I have never forgotten this. You can stand it and make great achievements. I want to promote you to the position of lieutenant, but you come from a humble background. If I promote you too quickly, I will provoke the jealousy of many people for you.
At present, I have a chance for you to seize. It is a virtual situation to attack the west gate tonight. In fact, he wants to attack the east corner. However, Zhuge Kongming is resourceful and has to be cautious. Therefore, I want to send a team of elite soldiers as the forerunner and explore first. I don't know if you are willing to take orders?"
"The king is kind, Chen Heng will die!!"
"Good! If the East Gate is empty, you will order people to beat the drum. I will lead the army to attack! When everything is done, I will live up to you!"
Chen Heng was very thoughtful for a moment and seemed to have seen him get ahead. Chen Heng crossed his heart and left hundreds of soldiers under the city. The rest of the soldiers quickly followed him to climb across the trench in the southeast corner and cut open the antlers.
The Jingzhou soldiers and horses buried in the houses in the southeast of the city were suddenly energetic when they saw the head of the city shaking. Pan Feng, Zhang Fei and others stared at the city and watched Cao soldiers ascend to the city one by one.
At the same time, half an hour ago, Zhuge Liang saw that the night was getting darker and darker. He thought that Cao Cao would soon take action and come to Ximen to visit the city.
Zhuge Liang squinted his eyes and looked away, although he couldn't see the distant scene. However, many horses' hoofs were faintly heard in my ears, and the sound of turbulence of armored weapons was heard.
Zhuge Liang's face changed, so he summoned the people who pretended to be the general to ask that Cao Jun had a special move just now. The people told him that two hours ago, Cao Cao suddenly rushed to the city to shoot arrows and almost shot him to death. What the people said was particularly true, and the palpitations on their faces had not subsided. Zhuge Liang's face suddenly changed dramatically. He hurriedly taught the left and right soldiers. He quickly went to the southeast of the city and told Pan Feng and Zhang Fei to immediately lead troops to help!
The two members of the school listened to Zhuge Liang's rare panic. They all knew that the matter was urgent, and they immediately went down to the southeast. At the same time, Zhuge Liang also called the people in the city to immediately prepare arrows and rolling wood and stones to guard against the attack of Cao's army. The people in the city were shocked, and Zhuge Liang shouted eagerly.
"If Xiangyang is lost, Jingzhou is in danger! Uncle Liu's foundation is not guaranteed, and sooner or later he will be murdered by treacherous thieves!!! You are all good people, and I don't want you to be in danger. But at this time, it is really a last resort. I hope that all the villagers will help him to show his strength, and he will be rewarded day by day!!!"
As soon as Zhuge Liang said this, the people of Xiangyang remembered that since Liu Bei became the real power in Jingzhou, he has done more benevolent politics and reduced taxes. The people can breathe. Although they are not rich, they can also be self-sufficient. The people of Xiangyang all admire Liu Bei's virtue. The reason why they are willing to guard the city for Zhuge Liang today is also to repay Liu Bei's benevolence and righteousness.
"Sir, don't worry! As long as it's for the sake of the royal uncle, I'm willing to go through fire and water!!!"
"Yes! Uncle Huang is the king of benevolence and righteousness, and he especially loves us and other people. If I were to be ruled by Cao thieves, I would rather die in battle!!!"
"What's the fear of death! As long as Uncle Liu is still in Jingzhou for a day, my wife and I can live happily. I would like to defend Xiangyang City!!!"
The people said one after another, and gradually the fear in the hearts of the people seemed to disappear. The people in the city began to scramble to prepare the supplies to defend the city. The original urgency on Zhuge Liang's face also faded a lot for a while. He looked up to the west and sighed secretly in his heart.
"Lord, although you are not around the light. But at this moment, Liang felt that he was fighting side by side with his master. Lord, don't worry, Jingzhou is there, Liang is there! Jingzhou is dead, Liang is dead!"
On the other side, it was said that Chen Heng climbed to the top of the city and saw that there was no movement in the city. Seeing this, Chen Heng was so angry that he quickly shouted to the soldiers in the city.
"There is no ambush in the city. Hurry up and beat the drums!!!!"
As soon as Chen Hengling's voice fell, he beat the drum in an in an hour, as if thousands of troops and horses were about to rush over. The soldiers and horses in Jingzhou, buried in the southeast houses of Xiangyang City, thought that Cao's army was about to arrive. Pan Feng quickly ordered the soldiers to launch a signal, and only heard a cannon sound, and the ambush was everywhere. Zhang Fei was the first to take the brunt and drove him bravely. For a moment, soldiers and horses rose everywhere in the originally dead city. Chen Heng was so scared that he saw Zhang Fei rushing over fiercely. Chen Heng quickly ordered the soldiers to resist.
"Retight, resist!!! The king's reinforcements will arrive soon!!!"
Chen Heng roared and commanded the soldiers to resist bravely. There was no doubt that Cao Cao would lead an army to the rescue. Zhang Feiyuan stared, and the eight snake spears waved like the wind and rushed into the tide of Cao soldiers. He rushed left and right, as if entering the land of no one, and he went straight away. Cao soldiers could not stop him and was defeated by Zhang Fei.
Before Pan Feng was about to lead the army to kill, he suddenly rushed to report.
"The military division has an order! Cao's army attacked the west gate, and the general quickly led the army to help the west gate. There must be no mistake!!!"
Pan Feng's face suddenly changed when she heard this. Feng's eyes suddenly narrowed and looked up the city. In addition to the thousands of Cao soldiers in the front, only the sound of drums could be heard outside the southeast city, and there was no shouting of a large army running.
"No, I was hit by Cao Cao's trick!!"
Pan Feng exclaimed and hurriedly ordered the generals to lead the army to the west gate to help. At the same time, Zhang Feiwu rushed wildly and saw that he was about to kill Chen Heng. Chen Heng was so anxious that his eyes kept looking out of the city, but he didn't see a soldier or a soldier!
At this time, in the west of Xiangyang City, it suddenly started, like a huge shout of killing that could shake the sky and the earth. Waves of rolling waves kept stirring up, shaking the whole city of Xiangyang.
