Liu Qi, the hegemon of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 458 Zhao Yun's Arrangement

Outside Runan City.

There are five miles apart.

There is a large camp where the people in charge set up their camps, and the flags are flying. In the center of the camp, there is a flag embroidered with the word "Zhao" in gold, and there are black flags waving in the wind everywhere.

Here.

It was the camp built by Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun did not intend to fight Guan Yu in Runan City, but led the army out of the city, and set up a camp in order to stop Guan Yu.

After all, as a top general, he also has his own pride, so how could he think that he would lose to Guan Yu, and they are old rivals.

When Liu Qi personally led the army to attack Jizhou.

It was he who led the army to hold Guan Yu who was stationed in Qiao County, but this time it was reversed.

In the main account.

Zhao Yun was also discussing countermeasures with Kuai Liang. After all, it is one thing to have confidence, but another thing to be arrogant. Confident but not arrogant, this is him.

At this time.

A soldier walked in quickly from outside the tent.

"Report, the Qi army has arrived thirty miles away, with more than one hundred thousand troops, and the vanguard is Guan Yu's adopted son——Guan Ping!" The soldier knelt down and bowed.

Zhao Yun waved his hand and said, "Explore again!"

"promise!"

The soldier also bowed his hands, bowed and retreated.

"What does the general think should be done?" Kuai Liang asked, "Now the Qi army has 15 soldiers and horses, and Guan Yu is still the commander, and Guan Ping and Mi Zhu are also accompanying them!"

"Guan Yu led the army to arrive. Along the way, he will definitely be exhausted. Moreover, Guan Yu will not let me lead the army, and Mi Zhu will assist him. He will definitely guard against our army's night attack, so the strategy of night attack is not feasible, and our army There are only [-] soldiers and horses, and [-] soldiers are stationed in Runan in case of accidents!"

"And if Guan Yu wants to lead his army to attack Runan, he must pass through here, and he can't bypass our army, so as to sneak attack Runan and cut off our army's retreat!"

Zhao Yun looked at the map in front of him and analyzed it.

Kuai Liang looked at Zhao Yun, he felt that Zhao Yun hadn't finished talking, after all, there was no way to deal with it.

Zhao Yun didn't keep Kuai Liang waiting, and continued: "Guan Yu led his troops from Qiao County, and it's almost evening now, so he wouldn't come to call for a fight if he wanted to, and our army can't attack at night, so we just We have to wait until tomorrow to make a decision!"

"The winner has not been decided before, let's decide the winner here!"

Done.

Zhao Yun's eyes also flashed with fierce fighting intent.

"In this way, let the spies disperse and observe the Qi army. Although the Qi army may not attack today, it is not a problem; and Yizhou has also sent back news that the Lord has assembled an army and set off from Yizhou!" Kuai Liang said.

He didn't have any objections. After all, Zhao Yun was right. They and Guan Yu were considered "old rivals", and Guan Yu would definitely be on guard against their night attack.

If you act rashly, you may fall into a trap, so it is better to focus on safety.

Zhao Yun nodded and agreed with Kuai Liang's suggestion.

Although he was not going to attack Guan Yu at night, he had to be on guard against the possibility that Guan Yu might lead an army to attack his camp at night.

"In this way, all the general's scouts will be sent out, and the defenses will be strengthened everywhere. All soldiers will not take off their armor while resting, and their horses will not take off their saddles!" Zhao Yun said.

"promise!"

Kuai Liang didn't have any objections either. Since he wasn't going to attack, there was no problem with such an approach.

"So, let's make arrangements to let the soldiers have a full meal tonight and recharge their batteries for tomorrow's battle!" Zhao Yun said.

Kuai Liang didn't say much, after bowing his hands and saluting, he also withdrew and arranged everything.

Moreover, Runan is five miles behind the camp, so there can be no mistakes. Once Runan cannot be defended, the entire land of Yuzhou will fall into the hands of the Qi army, which will also affect the entire battle situation.

After all, above Yuzhou is the land of Yanzhou.

If Runan falls into the hands of the Qi army, Guan Yu can lead his troops northward, take the rear of Dongjun directly, and join forces with Liu Bei to attack front and back. If Dongjun falls, then even if Wei Yan defends Jizhou and is separated, he will not be able to persist how long.

It can be said that Jizhou, Yanzhou, and Runan are closely related and support each other.

Perhaps Liu Bei also thought of this, so he divided his troops into three groups and attacked Jizhou, Yanzhou, and Runan at the same time, instead of gathering all the troops and attacking only one place.

Kuai Liang also walked out of the main tent while thinking.

Wait for Kuai Liang to leave.

Zhao Yun also frowned, looking at the map in front of him.

Although the words were a little relaxed, he didn't dare to have any carelessness in his heart, and he was also very familiar with Guan Yu. They had fought against each other many times, so how could they be unfamiliar.

Guan Yu's military strength and ability to lead soldiers are not inferior to him, let alone when they were in Hulao Pass, they had known each other before, and they didn't have a deep friendship.

And now, excluding the [-] soldiers who stayed in Runan City, he only has [-] soldiers here. In terms of military strength, he is on the disadvantaged side.

Once something goes wrong.

It is also difficult to defend Runan City before the arrival of reinforcements, let alone defeat Guan Yu.

This is also the reason why he is cautious and cautious.

If he had a considerable force, Zhao Yun would probably carry out a night attack, even if there was an ambush, he would still do it. After all, with a considerable force, he could arrange it flexibly.

Strategies are 'dead' and can adapt to changing circumstances.

I thought about it for a long time.

Zhao Yun didn't think of any good strategy to defeat the enemy, let alone a quick way to defeat the enemy.

He stretched out his hand and rubbed his temples, and stopped thinking about it. He will wait until after the great battle before making another plan.

And he also believes that Guan Yu will not come to attack the camp, and he will not make any moves today. There is a reason why he chose to set up camp in power.

There are deep mountains and dense forests on both sides of the avenue. If you want to pass, you have to break through from the front, and you can't get around.

Otherwise, he would not lead his troops out. If he was on the plains, in an open area on all sides, 15 soldiers and horses would not be able to stop the [-] Qi army from forcibly attacking, and the chances of defeat would be too high.

Here, it is still possible to block 15 Qi troops with [-] soldiers and horses.

At this time.

Zhao Yun raised his head and looked towards the door of the tent, with endless fighting intent in his eyes, as if he could see through the tent and look into the distance.

"It's time for us to decide the outcome!"

A whisper remembered.

immediately.

Also restored calm.

In the big camp, there were more than a hundred riders, who galloped out of the big camp and headed for the distance.

These more than a hundred riders are also the scouts who stayed behind in the army, and now they are all sent out to monitor the situation of the Qi army in case there are any changes.

It has a bearing on the overall situation, so we have to be cautious.

Caution is the boat.

And when Zhao Yun and Kuai Liang had an arrangement.

The scout sent by Guan Yu also learned of the location of the camp, and it was inevitable that it would be discovered if it was not hidden.

The Qi army's scout also retreated quickly, rushing back towards the Qi army's large troops that were still marching in the rear.
