Chapter 34 Eight-door Golden Lock Array
"Lord, Cao Ren in front of you leads the army to fight!" Less than ten miles away from Cao Ren's camp, the scouts scattered before gave Liu Bei some unexpected news.
"Is Cao Ren crazy? Does he dare to block 80,000 of us with 20,000 people in the wilderness? This is everyone's first reaction." Zilong, Uncle Zhi escorted the rear army, Zi Jing stabilized the middle army, and Yide Botao followed me to have a look. Liu Bei quickly reacted and then made a more secure decision.
"No!" Zhao Feng and Zhang Fei responded in unison, and then led their troops to follow Liu Bei to meet the enemy.
"Liu Sashijun, I haven't seen you for a long time!" From afar, I saw Cao Ren arching his hand first. Well, since General Cao has come out in person, he must have to fight to the death with us? Liu Bei also replied while saluting. Zhang Fei beside him was already rubbing his hands. When Cao Ren nodded his head, he came forward to fight.
"Liu Shijun's words are heavy!" Cao Ren blushed and said, "General Zhang and General Zhao are both fierce generals in the world. How dare I, Cao Ren, be so arrogant?"
"Isn't General Cao here to abandon the secret?" Zhao Feng suddenly said, which immediately made Zhang Fei and others sneer.
"Of course not, Liu Shijun, I, Cao Ren, don't want to say any more false words. Now I put this big array. As long as Liu can break it, I can go to Peiguo unimpeded. After Cao Ren finished speaking, he turned his head and returned to the battle. Behind him, more than 10,000 soldiers lined up and operated under the command of the two generals and formed a military array.
"What kind of situation is this?" Zhao Feng and Zhang Fei both stared at me. After Zhao Feng came to this world, he also asked Guan Yu and Zhang Fei whether there was a military array in the world. He was extremely profound about the divine array in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Especially Zhuge Liang's eight-array map, dozens of broken stones trapped Lu Xun.
According to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, there is indeed an array, but it is not so mysterious. Generally speaking, the formation is to divide the large troops into more flexible small units. During the battle, the cooperation between the units can be strengthened to fight more and less against the enemy in the local area, so as to achieve the effect of defeating the enemy. It's just that Guan Yu and Zhang Fei know very little about the formations, and the two of them know about seven or eight ancient formations together. Zhao Feng looked at Zhang Fei's white expression and knew that he absolutely didn't know today's formation.
"What should I do?" Zhao Feng was a little panicked. At present, Cao Ren's formation just blocked Liu Bei's way. Of course, there are many soldiers in Xuzhou, and they can also bypass if they bypass it. However, in this way, when he comes to the confrontation with Cao Wei under the city of Pei, he will face the danger of being attacked.
"It's getting late. Let's camp for the time being. Let's gather everyone to discuss the big account in the evening to see how to crack this situation." Liu Bei saw that everyone didn't see a name for a while, so he ordered to deal with it like this for the time being.
In the Xuzhou military tent in the evening, everyone was present. I, Lao Zhang, have never seen this array. I don't know if anyone has seen it? Zhang Fei muttered. " What kind of array?" Zhao Yun and Chen Dao in the rear army and Lu Su in the Chinese army were confused. At present, Liu Bei told the situation at that time.
"So it's like this, Lord, this array is placed on the plain. When you look at it casually, you can't really see it. You can order the sergeant to build a dirt slope overnight so that you can climb up and watch it." After listening to it, Lu Su first said.
Zhao Feng's eyes lit up when he heard the words: "Zi Jing is familiar with the formation?"
"I don't dare to be familiar with it, but I still know a few formations. Climb high tomorrow and have a look. You should be able to find some flaws. Lu Su is still as cautious as ever. After listening to his words, Liu Bei and others finally had a little more confidence.
It is not to mention that the Xuzhou army has been doing business all night. At this time, under the city of Peiguo, Cao's army's tent was also brightly lit. Cao Jian and his important advisers and generals were both present, and everyone's faces were not very good-looking.
"This crossbow is so powerful that it seems that it is difficult for Peiguo City to take it easily." Cao Wei also sighed. During the day, he ordered people to attack all day, but more than 5,000 bodies were left behind. Of course, the Peiguo garrison was not without damage, and it is estimated that at least a thousand died. The problem is that if we continue to fight like this, Cao's Yanzhou army will hurt its muscles and bones.
"Your father-in-law, Runan Guan Yu personally led a large army of 50,000 to save the State of Pei, and has arrived in the State of Liang." At this time, another detective came to report, and suddenly there was another exclamation in the camp.
"I have heard about the elite of the army in Xuzhou for a long time, and now it really lives up to its reputation. Pei Guo's general is just a yellow scarf thief Guan Hai, but it should not be underestimated. Now Guan Yu and Liu Bei's reinforcements are aggressive, and it is difficult to give up in such a situation. Zilian, go to the village in the west to stop Guan Yu with 20,000 horses. If necessary, use the eight-door golden lock array, and be sure to stick with me for five days!" Cao Shen also made up his mind to break the hard bone of Peiguo before the reinforcements arrived.
"No!" Cao Hong took the order with his fist and didn't mention it overnight. He didn't say anything all night.
The next morning, Liu Bei led everyone to climb up the soil slope that had just been built and watched Cao Ren's military formation from afar. Brother Zijing, have you ever understood it? Zhao Feng looked at Lu Su's expression as indifferent as ever, and knew that he had seen a little fame.
"Master, this should be Cao's watcher's stunt: eight-door golden lock array. Su once heard Liu Ye and Liu Ziyang mention it. Although Cao Ren's formation has been changed, the foundation remains unchanged. What's more, this battle lacks the guidance of famous generals, and it is not difficult to break it. Lu Su looked at it for a while, and finally saw that he was famous.
Liu Bei was overjoyed and quickly asked, "Does Zijing have a way to break the array?"
"The lord can send a general, lead 3,000 light cavalry to enter from the southeast corner of the gate, and go out to the west gate, then this battle can be broken!" Lu Su finally made a stern, but then added: "Cao Ren has 20,000 horses, but this battle is only composed of 10,000 people. Presumably there are still 10,000 people ready to go. The lord can take down two more people and horses. After breaking the battle, he will cover up from both sides, and he will be able to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop!"
"This is a great plan!" Liu Bei was also quite excited and ordered, "Zilong, you lead 3,000 cavalry to break the battle according to Zi Jing said!"
"No!" Zhao Yun held his fist to receive the order.
"Third brother, Bo Tao, you two each lead 10,000 horses, wait for their array to break from both sides, and immediately wave to cover up!" Liu Bei continued to order.
"No!" Zhao Feng and Zhang Fei also answered together.
"Kill!" With Zhao Yun's roar, the 3,000 light cavalry led by him immediately quickly killed the southeast corner of the array driven by Cao Ren, and then entered the array from there and went straight to the west. The soldiers of the array tried to stop them, but Zhao Yun and other cavalry were quick and shot quickly, like a sharp arrow into the army. This made the southeast corner of the whole array completely chaotic, and then there were more and more signs in this chaotic area.
"It's not good!" Cao Ren, who was in the middle of the command, saw that the situation was broken clean and immediately became anxious. At this time, Zhang Fei and Zhao Feng on the left and right sides also launched almost at the same time, and the two armies pressed Cao Ren's middle army like hungry tigers and sheep. The array was broken, including Cao Ren himself, who had no intention of fighting. Now Zhao Feng and Zhang Fei rushed over and killed them, just like a tiger entering the sheep.
"Don't enter the village, retreat quickly!" Cao Ren saw that the defeated army could not stop for a while, and he directly ordered to abandon the village. Finally, he still understood that he could not go directly to the State of Pei. At present, he cleaned up the remnants and retreated to the State of Lu, where Li Dian was guarded.
"It's a pity!" Zhao Feng killed several Cao soldiers who came forward to stop him with a gun. At a glance, Cao Ren had fled far away. Now I'm busy rescuing Pei Guo, and I don't have time to hunt him down.
"Brother, kill it happily!" Zhang Fei laughed and returned to Liu Bei on the ground slope. Then he turned his head and saluted Lu Su and said, "Mr. Zijing is really talented. Fei really admires it!"
"The words of the three generals are heavy!" Lu Su also smiled back. Zhao Feng will also return to the dirt slope at this time. After reporting the military situation to Liu Bei, Zhao Feng looked at Lu Su and just nodded with a smile. Lu Su also smiled, but didn't say anything.
"Lu Su still has two ways!" Zhao Feng sighed in his heart. Perhaps he is not as good as Guo Jia in terms of military use and formation, and Zhang Zhao in terms of internal affairs, but he can win in omnipotence and know everything. Now Zhuge Liang is less than 20 years old, and Pang Xiaoniao is probably still a minor. Since these two are not here, you might as well use Lu Su as a copycat version of Zhuge Liang.
"It's not noon yet, and this place is only 30 miles away from Pei. Lord, you can order the soldiers to rest on the spot, have a full meal, and then march with all their strength to rush to Peiguo in the afternoon. Lu Su also said that Liu Bei had already laughed when he saw such a great victory. Now he has a hundred trusts in Lu Su, and he has no way to agree at the moment.
At this time, under the city of Peiguo, Cao Qian saw that the defenders of Peiguo, who were the same enemy, were still struggling to resist. Today, Cao's offensive was more fierce than yesterday. As a result, the casualties on both sides were greater than yesterday. In less than half a day, Cao's army had left more than 4,000 bodies. As for the Peiguo garrison, although their casualties have also increased, they still firmly guarded the city.
"This Guan Hai is a brave and resourceless person, and Jian Yong is not a wise man. The two of them have actually blocked us for almost two days." Cao can't help feeling a little uncomfortable.
"Look, Prime Minister, it seems that there are people in the city!" Xun You's eyes were sharp, and he saw that there were not only defenders in the city, but also some people who were busy. Carrying stones, arrows, treating the wounded and so on. Although he did not directly participate in the war, his role should not be underestimated.
"The Xuzhou army has won the hearts of the people!" Cao said with a sigh. Guo Jia and Xun You behind them looked at each other helplessly. Isn't it because you slaughtered Xuzhou at the beginning? I just did this again in the State of Lu. Now the people are afraid to hear your name, so they don't try their best to defend the city.
"Intense up the siege!" Cao Yan was about to give an order when a sentinel rode a flying horse to report: "The Prime Minister, General Cao Ren was defeated by Liu Bei and has now returned to the State of Lu. Liu Bei's army is less than 20 miles away from here!"
"Bang!" The whip on Cao's hand fell off.
