Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 404 Outsmarting Wakou Pass (2)

"General, what should we do now? Going on like this is not an option!" Zhang Yi said with a depressed face.

Not only did Zhang Yi look depressed, but even Xia Houba also looked depressed. Zhang Yun refused to fight, and he had no choice but to do so!It seems that we have to find a way to lure him down.

As soon as Xia Houba had an idea, he came up with a plan, and the corner of his mouth slightly raised: "I have a plan in mind, maybe I can trick him down, when the time comes..."

Zhang Yi was overjoyed after hearing this, and hurriedly asked: "I wonder what good strategy the general has? Can you tell me if you can predict the enemy's victory?"

"This plan still needs your cooperation!" Xiahou said overbearingly.

"Even if the general orders, Zhang Yi will follow the lead of the general." Zhang Yi said.

"Okay!" Xia Houba stepped forward and whispered in Zhang Yi's ear, so so!so and so!After hearing this, Zhang Yi praised Xia Houba's clever plan.

"General, a large number of prostitutes were found in Cao Ying at the foot of the mountain, singing and dancing in Cao Ying." At night, a spy flew to report.

Just as Zhang He drank the wine in his mouth, he suddenly squirted it out, and the spy who sprayed it looked surprised and said, "What? There are a large number of prostitutes coming and going in and out of Cao Ying? Could it be you who saw it wrong?"

The spy touched the wine that had been sprayed all over his face, and Zhang Xi's saliva was still mixed in it, and said, "Yes, General! After repeated inspections by the humble officer, I returned to report to the General."

"General, it's our golden opportunity for the enemy to underestimate the enemy so much. The last general asks for orders! Lead the troops to raid the enemy camp." Zhang Yun waved his hand to let the spies retreat, and one of the generals couldn't wait to stand up and ask for the battle.

"Yes! General, don't miss this opportunity and never come again! I would like to go too! Please allow me, General!"

"And I……"

"And I..." The rest of the generals petitioned one after another when they saw that someone was the first to apply for the job, fearing that they would be left behind.

Zhang Yun glanced at the group of subordinates who were eager to claim credit, and said with a sneer, "Everyone thinks this is an opportunity for our army, and the credit is in front of us, right?"

"Yes!" All the generals clasped their fists together and saluted.

"I don't think so!" Zhang Yun said with a little deep meaning.

"General, why is this?" Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and a captain asked with his fists clasped.

"Our army has been at loggerheads with the enemy for more than [-] days. If the enemy really underestimated the enemy, they would have called prostitutes long ago. Why are they doing this now? I guess it must be the enemy. Tricks! Don't trust them lightly, otherwise you will be ambushed by the enemy, such small tricks! This general has already seen through." Zhang He said.

Only then did everyone suddenly realize!It turned out to be an enemy trick!Fortunately, the general is so insightful that he saw through the enemy's tricks!Otherwise, if the army goes out lightly, it will definitely be ambushed by the enemy. At that time, even if the whole army is not wiped out, it will suffer heavy losses and the consequences will be disastrous.

"General, if the enemy army really relaxes its vigilance, our army will remain indifferent! Wouldn't it be a missed opportunity!" Someone still worried.

"Okay! How could Xiahouba's small tricks escape my general's eyes, pass on my general's order! No one is allowed to step out of the camp, and those who disobey the order! Beheaded!" Zhang He got up and directly ordered not to act rashly.

"No!" The general clasped his fists in a salute, and took the order to leave.

At the foot of the mountain, in Cao Jun's camp, Cao Jun's officers and soldiers are watching the singing and dancing of prostitutes. It is very lively!Xiahou Bazheng, the chief general of the Cao army, was exchanging cups with the other generals. He was so uncomfortable that he completely forgot that he was fighting Zhang He's army on the mountain.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Zhang Yi cupped the wine glass in his hand and said to Xia Houba: "General, our army is here to sing and dance! Will the enemy take this opportunity to raid our camp?"

"Ha! Ha! Ha!" Xia Houba drank the fine wine in his glass, wiped his mouth and said with a smile: "Zhang Yi, you don't need to worry! Everything is under my control, come and drink, drink!" said Forget it, fill up the wine glass, drink it up in one gulp, and continue to push and change glasses.

In the early morning of the next day, the spies came to report that last night Cao Ying had a lot of fun and didn't stop until midnight. Angrily, Zhang He kicked over the table in front of him.

"Damn it! Xia Houba, a despicable villain, dared to humiliate me like this. He is really mad at me! If I don't kill this person, I will not be able to get rid of my hatred!" Zhang He cursed angrily.

It was a pity that the great opportunity slipped away like this last night, the generals sighed in their hearts!However, he didn't dare to say a word in front of Zhang He, lest he would be angered by Zhang He and punish them, which would be really wronged.

When Zhang He lost his temper, a spy rushed in, knelt down on one knee and said, "General! I just found out that Xia Houba planned to withdraw most of the soldiers and horses, leaving only one battalion of soldiers and horses. Commander Yi also said that it doesn’t take too many soldiers to take the head of a general, a battalion of old, weak, sick and disabled is enough!”

"What?" Zhang He was furious!Staring at the spies with wide eyes, he was just teased by Xia Houba last night, and now he underestimates himself so much, really Zhang He has no temper.

The spy was scared to death, sweating profusely, his back was wet, he looked at Zhang Yun carefully, for fear that he would vent his anger on himself in a fit of anger, and he would be too wronged.

"I want to see if Xia Houba is really so deceitful." After finishing speaking, Zhang Yun strode out of the tent and came to the top of the mountain to watch.

I saw Xia Houba being drunk and being helped onto the horse, leading the brigade to leave, leaving only a battalion of old, weak, sick and disabled.

Zhang He was furious: "Xiahouba, you bastard, you bullied me too much! Send an order! Immediately summon the army, and follow this general to kill and go down the mountain. Whoever takes Xiahouba's head will be promoted to three ranks."

"No!" The guards behind him took the order and ordered the three armies to assemble. Zhang He returned to the camp and put on his armor to fight, and led the three armies to kill Cao Ying at the foot of the mountain.

Zhang Yun led the army to kill down the mountain, Cao Jun was panicked, even Xiahouba who was on the horse was panicked!In Zhang Xi's eyes, he felt happy, but he didn't notice Xiahouba's smile under his flustered expression.

Zhang He yelled first, and the thunder of the battle drums on the top of the hill helped him to charge straight into the central army. Zhang He rushed to the front and charged at the panicked Xiahouba. Unexpectedly, Xiahouba turned around and shot out. Parry.

Cannons fired from the back of the tent, the first general came out from behind Zhang He, and slashed at Zhang He with a saber.

Xiahouba and Zhang Yi joined forces to attack Zhang He, and the three generals fought for fifty or sixty times in the light of the fire. Under the fierce attack of Xiahouba and Zhang He, Zhang He was a little bit overwhelmed, and secretly groaned inwardly. Knowing that the three villages on the mountain might have fallen into the enemy's hands, Zhang He shot Xia Houba back with a false shot, and had to go to Wakou Pass.

After Zhang He retreated to Wakou Pass and cleared up the remnants, he found that the [-] army had already lost [-], so he immediately sent someone back to ask Li Song for help.
