The Strongest Overlord of the Three Kingdoms

He expected that the reason why Xiahou Dun took such a reckless decision was because he wanted to hold back Ma Chao's [-] army with this isolated city.

In this case, we will not follow his plan.

So our army only needs to hang it here, and even if we continue to march, everything will be solved.

Although this strategy seems simple, Ma Chao is still a little puzzled.

"Shi Yuan, even though that's what you said, if we ignore Xiahou Dun and continue to march.

Has Linjing soon become a nail in the back of our army?

At that time, if the opponent goes out of the city to attack the rear of our army, wouldn't it be a heavy loss? "

Ma Chao's worries are not unreasonable, which is why ancient wars have to eradicate city by city.

Therefore, it seems to be just a city, but in fact it is still the enemy's base, the base camp.

As long as there is a city in the rear that is not cleared, there will be endless troubles, and you will face the danger of being cut off by the opponent at any time!

When Pang Tong heard this, he laughed.

"Meng Qi, the so-called reality is empty, empty is real, and the combination of virtual and real is the way to defeat the enemy.

I mean to ignore Linjing and move on, but I don't mean to really ignore it.

In fact, all these plans are to attract the defenders who are huddled in the city.

What the other party hopes most is that we have a protracted tug of war with them under the city.

The last thing we want is that our army simply ignores him and continues to march.

As long as we always follow the plan that the other party least expects to happen, then Xiahou Dun will definitely not be able to sit still.

As long as he left the city, wouldn't he be afraid of a mere one-eyed Xiahou with Meng Qi's bravery? "

These words finally made Ma Chao understand Pang Tong's plan.

At the same time, there was a look of pride on his face: "Huh! Don't talk about Xiahou Dun, even Cao Cao.

As long as it is a field battle, I am also confident that I can kill him by cutting off his beard and abandoning his robe! "

"Hahahaha! Meng Qi is so courageous, you just kill the enemy on the battlefield, as for how to lure the enemy out, leave it to me!"

Pang Tong was full of confidence, and then began to make arrangements.

Thirty miles west of Linjing City, there is a small mountain called Huizhongshan.

Although it is not high, it has been eroded by the river water, and the ravines are vertical and horizontal, hidden in the valley, and there is no abnormality from the outside.

Therefore, Pang Tong arranged for Pang De to lead an army of [-] to ambush in the mountain, and when Cao Jun arrived, he would immediately fight out.

But this is just an ambush, and some bait is also needed.

This task was handed over to Ma Dai.

Ma Dai led [-] soldiers, pretending to be transporting food, grass and supplies, and ostentatiously passed through the city outside Linjing City.

When the opponent came out of the city to attack, he left his luggage and fled back to the ambush circle of Pang De's army in Zhongshan, leading Cao Jun in.

At the same time, Ma Chao led the rest of the army in ambush outside the city.

When Cao Jun went out of the city to pursue, he took the opportunity to attack the city.

It doesn't matter if you can't take it down, as long as all the enemy troops leaving the city are wiped out, the enemy's strength can be continuously weakened.

After doing this several times, the opponent will collapse without fighting.

When the generals heard the words, they immediately took orders and went down to prepare.

In the past few days, Xiahoudun has been watching the movement of Ma Chao's army from the top of the city every day.

It was okay at the beginning, Ma Chao was stationed outside the city, practicing every day, and seemed to be fighting against him for a long time.

For such a scene, Xiahou Dun is of course happy to see it.

However, today's situation surprised Xiahou a little.

I saw Ma Chao's army setting up camp, as if they were about to leave.

This made Xiahou Dun a little confused.

"Could it be that the other party wants to retreat when they see that they can't win the city?" He curiously asked Zhang Ji beside him.

Zhang Ji's face was also very cautious, he frowned and did not reply for a long time.

Under the watchful eyes of the two, Ma Chao's army had all been packed.

Afterwards, a man and horse was seen coming in the direction of Linjing City.

"Not good! Could it be that the other party is going to attack the city? Hurry up and ring the alarm bell!"

Xia Houchong on the side turned pale with shock.

As the eldest son of Xiahou Dun, he has been fighting with his father on the battlefield for some years.

So as soon as you see the enemy's movements, give an early warning.

"Dang! Dang! Dang!"
