Three Kingdoms: The opening incorporates Li Cunxiao

Chapter 81 Zhang Liao is involved in danger
  Inside Puyang City.

Report! ~
  Lu Bu sat across from Chen Gong and sent a letter to the scouts to report.

"My lord, military advisor, the six waves of messengers sent by our department were all captured by Zang Ba's men."

Lu Bu got angry and pulled the wound on his shoulder until blood oozed. He grinned in pain and said, "That bitch Zang Ba, if I had known I should have stabbed him to death with a halberd! Okay,
  I see. "

Lu Bu's indifferent look completely aroused Chen Gongtai's fragile nerves.

"Fengxian! This is so imminent, why don't you be in a hurry!"

"Huh? What does Mr. Gongtai mean by this? I am defending Puyang. That Zhang Wu is mostly a cavalryman. Could it be that he can still fly to the top of the city?"

Chen Gong was furious: "I'm not talking about Puyang, but Wenyuan!"

"What's wrong with Wenyuan?" Thinking of his beloved general, Lu Bu felt a lot relieved: "Anyway, you have already made up your plan. As soon as Cao Jun sends his troops to attack the city, Wenyuan will

Lead the army to attack from a pincer, count the time, it's time for Wen Yuan to arrive. You insist on sending a message to Wen Yuan not to return to the army, and clean up the counties in Yanzhou. Isn't it unnecessary? "

Chen Gong was so angry that he didn't know how to explain it to Lu Bu. He was so anxious that he could only wander around the halls of the Prefect's Mansion.

"Don't turn around, you'll make me dizzy."

"Fengxian! Lu Bu!!! What do you want me to say about you! At the top of Puyang City, you leaked the military plan for a moment! Now that Wen Yuan is returning to the army, how can Zhang Wu not set up a plan along the road?

Volt? Once Wenyuan's army is defeated and Wei Xu only has 2,000 remnant troops in his hands, we will immediately become a lone army, ruining Yanzhou's good situation in vain! ! "

"I haven't finished speaking yet." Lu Bu muttered in a low voice, then he couldn't sit still and went back to the back hall to find his beloved wife Yan and his beloved daughter Qiling. nor

Behind the scenes, Chen Gong was angry.

Lu Bu is also affectionate. He takes his family with him when he marches and fights. Whenever the war is stable, he will spend some time with his family.

He may not be a qualified lord or a successful prince, but he can definitely be regarded as a qualified husband and a qualified father.

This move made Chen Gong gasp and sigh at the same time.

West of Puyang, between the low hills on both sides of the trail.

In addition to the more than a hundred flying bears guarding the prisoners, the remaining five thousand were all sent out, combined with the two thousand flying bear cavalry led by Cao Angdonggui.

They also made a number of seven thousand, and the men did not dismount, and the swords did not leave their hands, and they were ready for battle.

"Zi Qian, I have heard that Zhang Liao knew the soldiers. How could he choose this mountain trail instead of taking the official route when returning to support? Isn't he afraid that you would set up an ambush here?" After the two armies merged, Cao Ang automatically joined the first army. The general became Zhang Wu's deputy. At this moment, he was even more curious and puzzled, and asked.

Zhang Wu explained:
  "First, I ordered Xuan Gao to hunt down the scouts and messengers. The flying bears are riding Xiliang horses. They are extremely fast. Ordinary scouts and messengers cannot outrun them. They can certainly do it.
  Full authority to intercept correspondence. "

"The letter from Puyang cannot be sent out, so Zhang Liao doesn't know who led the army to attack Puyang. If my father-in-law leads the army to return to reinforcements, he will have no less than one hundred thousand soldiers and horses.

After all, there are scouts all around. If he seeks help from officials, wouldn't he be exposing himself? "

"Secondly, if you take the official road, Zhang Liao's troops will lead directly to the north gate of Puyang. In front of the north gate is a plain as far as the eye can see. As long as you are not blind, you can see him leading the troops.
  Returning to support Puyang, how could he form a pincer attack with Lu Bu? "

"Third, surprise attacks rely on speed and concealment. Compared with the official road, the trail is not only dozens of miles closer to Puyang, but it is also in disrepair and no one has ever explored it.

If he chose this place, it would be quick and concealed. "

"Even because the letter from Puyang cannot be sent out, Zhang Liao probably still thinks that our army has not seen the opportunity and does not know about the news that he has led the army to return for reinforcements. How did he know that I am setting up an ambush here?"

Cao Ang stared blankly at this reckless man in his eyes, a little unbelievable.

Could it be that if you stay with your father for a long time, the monkey can become a spirit?
  But it’s not right. Cao Ang studied with Zhang Wu and learned exactly the same things. Why did he become enlightened while he was still ignorant? Could it be that he was not as good as him?

A martial artist's aura?
  "Ahem, is it necessary to go to such trouble? I heard Yuan Rangshishu mentioned that when you were in Xiwu, you broke down the city gate with one shot, captured the city, beheaded the generals and drove the rebel army into the wilderness. Why not now?

Following the example of the gourd, smashing open the Puyang city gate and killing Lu Bu, wouldn't that directly end the crisis in Yanzhou? "

Zhang Wu picked up the iron spear and tapped Cao Ang's helmet with the tip of the spear, making a clanking sound.

"Unlucky boy, what nonsense are you talking about! Can Puyang and Xiwu be the same? Xiwu belongs to Guo Si, and I don't want to occupy it, so I will destroy it if I smash it. Puyang is ours

, smashed the door, disturbed the people in the city, and ruined the prime minister's reputation. You are responsible! "

"What's more, although Guo Si commanded 200,000 troops, the rebel army was gathered together and difficult to mobilize. And this Lu Bu has been in battle for a long time and has great prestige in the army. Even if the city is destroyed, if he does not die, the scattered soldiers will find him. If you surrender to him, he will still be able to run wild in Yanzhou."

"I broke down the gate. Even if our army enters the city, there will be no gate to defend. It's like shooting myself in the foot for no reason."

While he was talking, Zang Ba came back to report: "General, we have found a large army of rebels. The leader is Zhang Liao. There are about six thousand infantry and about two thousand cavalry. The cavalry is in front, and the infantry follows closely behind. "

"Okay, I am indeed a genius. Zixiu, you and Xuangao lead 5,000 men, set up ambushes on both sides of the hill, let go of the cavalry, and go straight to the center of the army. This will prevent the rebels from looking at each other."

The two of them clasped their fists at the same time: "No."

Zhang Wu then ordered two thousand cavalry to block the exit first. Zhang Wu could ignore the six thousand infantry, but he was sure to eat the two thousand cavalry led by Zhang Liao.

Most of the land in Yanzhou is plain, and the cavalry is too mobile. If it escapes, all counties and counties will suffer. Once the two sides fall into a tug of war, there will be real troubles.

As the sky grew dark, Zhang Liao led his army on a journey through the night. When they arrived near a hill, they instinctively sensed something was wrong.

It was the season when all things revived, but the silence on both sides of the trail was terrifying, and not even a bird was seen.

"General, continue ten miles to the west and you will reach Puyang."

Zhang Liao held Ma Jiu down and asked the soldiers beside him, "Have you received a letter from Mr. Gongtai?"

The soldier replied: "Never."

Zhang Liao calmed down. He thought that even if the war in Puyang was unfavorable, if there were any new changes, with Lu Bu's bravery, there would still be no problem in sending the letter.

Since there is no letter, it means that everything can be done in accordance with the original military policy.

"Call the troops to light their torches and move on."

"General, it's getting dark. Why don't we rest here overnight and resume our march early tomorrow morning."

Zhang Liao glared at the soldiers beside him: "Haven't you heard that soldiers need speed? I will order you to hurry up and return to Puyang first. Tell the lord that our army will arrive at midnight tonight, and ask him to send troops at the same time to attack Cao Jun's camp and defeat Cao Cao. The day is today!"

"promise!"
