The Three Kingdoms are invincible

Chapter 164 Sun Jian Retreats

Zhou Yu is the kind of person who refuses to suffer. He was played a little bit this time. Although his face is still calm and he doesn't seem to care, he is still a little depressed.

But it's not because he is so awkward in his chest, he wants to get this tone back severely, Zhou Yu's mind is not so narrow-minded.But at this moment, he was still waiting a little bit, looking forward to the expression on the opponent's face when the enemy general who made him suffer was captured later.

There are only 5000 people. If there is no accident, the enemy army is a dish in front of its tens of thousands of troops, and the own army can eat whatever they want.

Although the time for the self-army to conquer Xuchang was postponed for several days because of the 5000 people in this area, the final result will not change.Xuchang was conquered by the self-armed army and became the step for his lord Sun Jian to step into the world. This will be the only ending that will happen in the future.

At this moment, Zhou Yu believed it.

However, God always seems to like failure to fulfill one's wishes. Zhou Yu was complacent just now, but then fell into a state of difficulty again.

Ahead is a dense forest. Although the area is not particularly large, it can barely squeeze 5 to [-] people.

There is a saying in the art of war: "No entry into the forest."

A forest like this is perfect for arranging ambushes, plus it's late at night, and the surroundings are so dark that it's hard to see your fingers. If there is really an ambush in the forest, then I'm afraid it's impossible for my army to enter rashly. You can't get any benefits, but you will lose many people in vain.

Zhou Yu is a little uncertain now?Will Cao Jun's reinforcements really only have 5000 people?Did they hide most of their troops in this forest before nightfall, and then let a small number of people go to harass the camp of their own army in the middle of the night, luring their own army to pursue the opponent, and then took advantage of the situation to lead their own army into this place? A piece of mountain forest, I fell down and killed it in one fell swoop.

The more Zhou Yu thought about it, the more he felt it was possible.

It is not impossible for 5000 people to rush to help and act as suspicious soldiers outside the city of Xuchang to delay the pace of the self-siege.But if this is the case, why does the other party have to constantly harass their own army at night and make their soldiers suffer from insomnia? Isn't this superfluous and superfluous?

You know, such a bad behavior is likely to arouse the anger of the own army, which makes the general decide to send troops directly to conquer.It’s fine if you just stay up all night. After all, it’s not difficult for these soldiers to stay up all night. However, if you have to spend the whole night in that tense and panic atmosphere, the consequences will be much more serious. It is extremely detrimental to various factors such as the morale of the army.In the face of such a despicable act, sending troops to conquer and try to seize the initiative is really a normal move, and the opponent's coach should not have thought of this.

If the opponent really only has 5000 people, how can they survive in the face of the situation where their own army is exhausted?If the other party really only had 5000 people, how could the coach risk his own army's anger and harass him so tirelessly at night?

Everything seems to boil down to three words: there is a conspiracy!

Well, it must be so.This must be the opponent's tactic to lure the enemy. First, a small number of troops are used to arouse the anger of the own army. The purpose is to lure the own army into this forest for ambushes.

In this way, the fact that there are only 5000 soldiers and horses outside Cao Jun's camp is absolutely justified.The [-] people were only responsible for luring themselves, and the army had already left the camp before nightfall, and entered this forest to set up an ambush. After a long time, their traces naturally faded away.

As for the question of why Cao Cao was able to send an army back to aid when Yuan Cao confronted him, it is no longer a problem.The situation on the battlefield is changing, who knows what happened at Guandu?

In this way, because of this mountain forest, Zhou Yu overturned the correct answer he had obtained before, and made a new deduction.And the more Zhou Yu thought about it, the more he felt that the conclusion he had deduced now was accurate.

"Gong Jin, do you want to chase in?" Sun Jian asked Zhou Yu at the side.Obviously, in front of this mountain forest, Sun Jian also had some concerns.

No way, who told me that the location of this mountain forest is just right, and it looks so suitable for ambush.

Faced with Sun Jian's questioning, Zhou Yu showed a look of embarrassment, should he advance or retreat?Is this a difficult question?

advance, may be ambushed and suffer heavy losses.

Retreat, after this night of constant tossing, but in the end they returned empty-handed. I am afraid that the self-army will no longer expect to have any morale to attack the city and kill the enemy. At that time, there may be only one way to retreat.

When Zhou Yu was in a dilemma, he suddenly heard a soldier shouting: "It's not good, the camp seems to be on fire!"

What!Hearing the soldier's call, everyone immediately looked back.

The raging flames rose all over the sky, and the direction of the fire was Sun Jian's camp!

"Not good!" Zhou Yu suddenly thought of something, and his face changed suddenly.

Sun Jian, Sun Ce, and others all showed shock on their faces. If the camp caught fire, it must have been robbed!

But who robbed the camp?Logically speaking, Cao Jun's reinforcements should all be in the forest ahead at this time.

"It must be the defenders in the city." Zhou Yu only pondered for a moment, and then said with hatred.

At this moment, the only ones who can rob the camp of our own army are the defenders in Xuchang City.

Damn it, could it be that they saw the opportunity for their own army to leave the camp, so they took action?Zhou Yu only felt that he was completely designed by the other party, and his mood was very dull.

It is the first step for the reinforcements to harass the own army continuously at night, and then the second step is to lure the own army out of the camp for ambushes. The last step is to slaughter all the remaining troops left in the battalion.

One ring after another, tightly intertwined, in order to slaughter Sun Jian's army to the ground, it is really a good plan and a good plan!

But how did the reinforcements outside the city get in touch with the defenders inside the city?I have been sending scouts to keep an eye on the gates of Xuchang City, and I haven't seen anyone coming in or out.

However, this is no longer the issue to be considered now. The key now is that if the camp is robbed, his group must immediately return to rescue.

Today, there are less than 3000 guards left in the Jiangdong camp, led by Sun Jian's veteran Han Dang and his second son Sun Quan. If the defenders in the city rob the camp, it may be difficult to hold it.

"Gong Jin, how about we abandon the camp first and try to capture Xuchang City?" Unlike Zhou Yu's worried expression, Sun Ce suddenly had a strange idea.Since the defenders of Xuchang City went out to rob the camp, the guarding force inside the city must have been weakened. They could rob the camp at night, so why couldn't their own army attack the city at night?And in this way, maybe it can also have the effect of besieging Wei and saving Zhao, thus successfully getting rid of the crisis of the camp being robbed.

When Zhou Yu heard this, although he had a heartbeat at first, it was quickly suppressed.

Difficult, too difficult, not to mention how many people were left in the city to defend the city, just the act of attacking the city at night is extremely dangerous.And if after the self-army launched the siege, Cao Jun who was ambushing in the mountains and Cao Jun who returned to rescue the city after robbing the camp gathered together and attacked the rear of the self-army together, the situation would really be close to death.

"Let's go rescue the camp first." Zhou Yu shook his head, denying Sun Ce's proposal.

"Oh." Seeing that Zhou Yu did not accept his suggestion, Sun Ce did not argue. Since Zhou Yu denied it, it must mean that his suggestion was wrong. This is the trust between their brothers.

———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————— It has been almost controlled by Cao Jun.

The situation went so smoothly, which surprised Yu Jin, the commander of this camp-robbing force.He was ordered to rob the camp, originally he thought he would encounter a fierce battle, but he never thought that it would be at his fingertips.

The idea of ​​robbing the camp was proposed by Jia Xu, which was caused by Gao Shun's tireless harassment of Sun Jian's camp.

The suspicious plan of the reinforcements has not only deceived Zhou Yu, but also deceived a group of counselors in Xuchang City, including Jia Xu and Xun Yu.

Although it is difficult to check the situation in the reinforcement barracks in the city, Jia Xu judged from the amount of cooking smoke that the reinforcement army is estimated to have 4 to [-] people.

Although the reinforcements did not enter the city, they could better restrain the enemy from outside the city. This made the soldiers of the Cao army who had been tense and desperately defending the city couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

After nightfall, after leaving a small group of soldiers to continue to pay attention to the movement outside the city, other soldiers went to rest one after another.

However, they had just fallen asleep when they suddenly heard shouts of killing outside the city.At the moment, these soldiers were so startled that they immediately crawled out of bed, picked up their weapons, climbed onto the tower, and prepared to fight.

Not only Sun Jianjun could clearly hear the sound of Gao Shun's order, but even the city of Xuchang. After all, the distance between the two sides was not too far away.

Xun Yu, Jia Xu and others looked surprised. Could it be that Sun Jian's army was about to break the boat and attack the city at night?Aren't they afraid of the tens of thousands of Cao troops by their side?

Although Xun Yu sent people to guard the city, it was just in case. He and others didn't think that Sun Jian's army would really dare to launch a night battle. After all, tens of thousands of Cao's troops camped nearby.If Sun Jian's army was really so reckless, and Cao Jun attacked him while he was attacking the city, the consequences would be disastrous.

With the containment of tens of thousands of Cao's troops, Sun Jian's army did not attack the city during the day and launched a night battle. Would they dare?

But if not, what's the matter with the sky-shattering sound?

Xun Yu, Jia Xu and others climbed up the tower with trepidation, but when they got to the tower, they found that no one had attacked from below the city.

Under the darkness, I couldn't see the situation in the distance, but I could only see that Sun Jian's camp seemed to be mobilizing troops from a distance.

It doesn't make sense, the drums have been beaten several times, but the troops haven't assembled yet?This is not a mistake made by famous generals like Sun Jian and Zhou Yu.

Jia Xu is worthy of being a poisonous man, seeing him thinking a little on the tower, he deduced most of the cause and effect.

These movements must have been made by Cao Jun outside the city, and it is probably a strategy of exhausted soldiers.

As expected by Jia Xu, Gao Shun's subsequent two harassments also proved his guess to be correct.

Seeing this situation, Jia Xu's mind became more active.

Cao Jun's camp is in the north of Sun Jian's camp, so repeated harassment will definitely make Sun Jianjun concentrate most of his attention and defensive power on the north of the camp to prevent accidents.In this way, the guard force in the south is likely to become slack, and it may be an opportunity for him to take advantage of.

If I send some troops to raid Sun Jian's camp from the south...

Of course, these troops are not enough on their own. Even if Sun Jian's army camp is inevitably weak in defense, once it is attacked, with the quality of his army, he will be able to react immediately and make timely adjustments.But now the situation is favorable to our own army, and Cao Cao's reinforcements are still waiting north of Sun Jian's army.Since the army raided Sun Jian's camp, even if Sun Jian's army was well-trained, they would definitely panic at the beginning.And as soon as this panic appeared, Cao Jun in the north might seize the opportunity to attack the camp in one fell swoop, forming a two-sided attack with himself.

In this way, Sun Jian's army will be defeated!

Like Zhou Yu, Jia Xu also mistakenly believed that Cao Cao was commanding and sitting in the camp.For Cao Cao's ability, Jia Xu is sure of it, and he firmly believes that Cao Cao will seize that chance.

So Jia Xu offered advice to Xun Yu and others without hesitation, expressing his thoughts.

After all, Xun Yu is still the main city in Xuchang, and Jia Xu has a lower status, so he still needs to report his thoughts.

After thinking about it for a while, Xun Yu agreed to Jia Xu's suggestion, and ordered Yu Jin to lead [-] troops to attack the south of Sun Jian's camp.
