The most powerful general in the Three Kingdoms
Chapter 279
Liu Bei is a very principled person.
This is how Liu Bei surrendered to Xuzhou.
However, although having principles is a good thing, just like Kong Rong giving away pears, it can win a good reputation, but not taking it when it is time to take it made Chen Gong, a counselor, a little disappointed and angry.
Fortunately, Liu Bei has not done anything more outrageous so far.
Just to follow the principle and not attack Cao Cao, it can be said.
Chen Gong will no longer mention the attack on Cao for the time being.
……
July 195 AD.
Li Jue took Liu Xie and fled to Mianchi County, but Guo Si attacked Mianchi fiercely but could not break through.
The loss of troops and horses on both sides has exceeded 20,000 people.
But now the two of them are already on top.
Both Li Jue and Guo Si believed that as long as they controlled Liu Xie, they could control the world.
Especially Guo Si, Guo Si has already received support from Zhou Cheng.
Zhou Cheng is now the lord of Hebei and has crossed the river to the south.
With Zhou Cheng's support, Li Jue will definitely be destroyed.
"Continue to attack the city!
Guo Si urged impatiently.
Arrows and flying stones flew towards the city. In response, arrows, rolling stones, firewood, and fire oil cans on Mianchi Lake also took away fresh lives one by one.
In the county government office.
Liu Xie and Dong Guiren hugged each other in fear.
Although Liu Xie was the emperor, at this moment, he once again felt helpless, just like when he was taken out of the palace by the Shi Changshi.
Unable to control his own destiny, he was manipulated like a bargaining chip.
The shouts of killing and the sound of war drums came from outside the city.
This is completely different from the original plan made with Dong Cheng
……
Xu Huang and Cao Hong faced off. The confrontation between the two armies had lasted for more than ten days.
Xu Huang was never in a hurry to attack Cao Hong.
Cao Hong also knew that Zhou's army was good at fighting, and Xu Huang was Zhou Cheng's general and should not be underestimated.
So Cao Hong stood firm in the camp and waited for Xu Huang to attack.
This confrontation continued until the Huben Camp and the Death Battalion. The Huben
Camp and the Death Battalion were both powerful armies of Zhou Cheng, with great military exploits and great authority.
Cao Hong did not dare to be careless.
At this time, Cao Ren led his army to join Cao Hong.
After Cao Ren entered Yingchuan, he sent troops and horses everywhere to"recruit" grain, grass and civilians.
Although Yingchuan has long been empty of houses and fields are barren, it is like squeezing juice. As long as you work hard, you can still gain something.
Of course, Cao Cao has no choice now.
His current military rations come from Yuan Shu's supply.
Yuan Shu would definitely be unhappy when he learned that Cao Cao went to Luoyang to fight for the emperor.
Therefore, it is 'reasonable' to cut off Cao Cao's supply of food and grass.
Cao Cao currently only has less than one month of food and grass.
Xu Huang also saw this clearly, so Xu Huang was not in a hurry to attack.
……
Zhongmu County.
Inside Cao Jun's camp.
Cao Cao was walking back and forth in the camp.
Zhou Cheng's army and horses were lying in front of Cao Jun, making Cao Hong and Cao Ren afraid to move forward.
Zhou Cheng's army is known to be good at fighting.
Moreover, the ones we encountered this time were the best among the best.
The death camp and the tiger camp are the most ferocious tigers in the world!
Such a strong army was enough to give Cao Cao a headache.
Xun Yu, Xu You, Xi Zhicai and others saw Cao Cao's appearance.
Before they could speak, Cao Ren said:"My lord, I want to lead my army to the rear of Xu Huang. When it gets dark, the fire will start and attack Xu Huang's camp. My lord will lead his army to attack again."
Cao Ren wanted to use his voice to attack the west. count!
Hearing this, Xun You frowned and said,"My lord, infantry and cavalry warriors must rely on the dangers of the hills. The long troops with strong crossbows should be in the front, and the short troops with weak crossbows should be in the back. However, looking at the Zhou army now, it is more and more restrained. A general who leads an army is good at running for attacks, but at this moment he stands still, there must be a deception. The lord should take a look at it slowly to see how it will change."
Xu Huang in history was very good at running long distances.
Last year, Xu Huang rushed to Jiumen County, appeared behind Lu Bu's army, attacked Lu Bu, and defeated Lu Bu.
Now Xu Huang led his army and horses to cross in front of Cao's army. It didn't look like he was standing still.
In fact, this is a strategy provided by Jia Xu.
Although Jia Xu was outside the Great Wall, he had already calculated the time when Cao Jun and Xu Huang would meet.
Cao Cao was defeated by Zhou Cheng, so he would be more cautious and not dare to kill him easily.
Cao Hong and Cao Ren also knew Xu Huang's power, so they were relatively conservative when marching.
As a result, the strong army led by Xu Huang was like a tiger blocking the road.
Faced with a tiger blocking the road, there are only three options.
The first is to kill the tiger directly.
The second is to sneak around and avoid direct combat with the tiger. Instead, distract its attention by making noises in the east and west, and look for opportunities to kill and flank the tiger.
The third is to stand still, confront the tiger, wait for the tiger to pounce, then find weaknesses in the defense and kill it.
Obviously, Cao Jun did not have the determination and courage to defeat Xu Huang in a single battle.
However, standing still and confronting Xu Huang, doing nothing every day, wasting military rations in vain.
Therefore, Cao Cao could only choose to attack in the east and attack in the west, sending a lone army to attract Xu Huang's attention. When Xu Huang's attention was attracted, he would take the opportunity to kill him and defeat Xu Huang in one go.
