A few days later,

Zhang Xiu led everyone back to the camp.

These days, Zhang Xiu sent people to beat drums and yell, but Yingyin was like a dead city, without any response, and even Xu Chu was silent.

Inside the tent,

"Now that Xun Yu is determined to defend himself, do you have any good plans to defeat the enemy?" Zhang Xiu looked at everyone and asked.

Everyone looked at each other, and then Hu Cheer clasped his fists and said angrily: "Lord, give me three thousand elite soldiers, and I will definitely be able to capture Yingyin within three days."

Zhang Xiu rolled his eyes and thought to himself, "You're going to be out of here!"

Although he had never led the army to fight, he had read Sun Tzu's Art of War. He had heard of him ten times and attacked him five times.

In his case, he could only find ways to lure the enemy into a field and destroy it.

"Lord, there are all infantry in Yingyin City. If you don't keep the Iron Cavalry and watch Xun Yu's infantry. Our infantry crossed Yingyin and headed straight to Xuchang.

I think Xuchang is empty and sees a large army coming to the city, and may surrender without fighting." Wen Pin hesitated for a while and said in a deep voice.

Zhang Xiu pondered for a moment and looked at Jia Xu because the latter had been frowning and contemplating.

"Wenhe, what do you think of Zhongye's plan?"

"Lord, although General Wen's plan is of great importance to military tactics, he can think it is not possible." Jia Xu frowned and pondered.

"As far as I know, Cao Cao and the Xiliang soldiers have purchased a lot of war horses in recent years and formed an iron cavalry. This iron cavalry general is Cao Chun, who is the younger brother of Cao Cao."

"But now this iron cavalry is vanishing and destroying the traces, I'm afraid that Xun Yu will be left behind, because we are afraid that our army will directly enter Xuchang. Therefore, this iron cavalry should be on standby in the county town around Yingyin."

"What they are waiting for is our army to intersperse the battle. In this way, let alone the eight thousand soldiers, even 20,000 soldiers in the wild can hardly defeat the iron cavalry."

After saying that, Jia Xu was full of solemnity.

"Tiger and Leopard Cavalry?" Zhang Xiu blurted out and couldn't help but fall into deep thought. The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry showed considerable strength after Guandu, but it is unknown when this cavalry will be formed.

However, it was extremely difficult to form a cavalry at this time. I think what Cao Chun is now in control of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.

"Wenhe, are you sure?"

Zhang Xiu narrowed his eyes and planned to think that he still had dozens of boxes of 64 fireworks. This thing can only be heard by sound, but it may have miraculous effects when dealing with cavalry, so he couldn't help asking urgently.

Jia Xu focused on the key points, "In the early years, Cao Cao had collusion with the generals under the two thieves of Li Guo, and the ones they bought and sold were war horses. At that time, Xu sent someone to investigate secretly."

"Haha, okay, the best way to defeat the enemy is today."

Zhang Xiu laughed heartily.

The generals couldn't help but look at each other, and were very puzzled.

"Master, what do you mean?"

Jia Xu claimed to be a little talented, but he was also confused at this time.

"The key to breaking the enemy lies in this Cao Chun."

"If our army really wants to march into Xuchang, then Xun Yu will never sit idly by. He will definitely order Cao Chun to attack while our army is marching or setting up camp."

"And if I were Xun Yu, I would have ordered the infantry to attack the two thousand iron cavalry who were left behind in the camp.

In this way, our cavalry can be useless, and secondly, he can cut off our army's retreat, and then the morale of the army will be deteriorated. Xuchang's danger will be solved, and he can even take back the county towns in Yingchuan."

Zhang Xiu is sonorous and powerful.

Listening to Zhang Xiu's statement, Jia Xu nodded in approval.

Indeed, Xun Yu would not blindly advance lightly, but how could such a fighter be in front of him be seen?

But even though you know that you are still determined to do so, wouldn’t it be that moths flew into the fire to perish?

"Lord, since you know that our army will be defeated, why did you win?" Jia Xu was puzzled.

"No, our army will win this battle."

"I have something to destroy Cao Chun's iron cavalry." Zhang Xiu said in a silly way.

"Can you destroy Cao Chun's Iron Cavalry?"

Everyone in the tent exclaimed, showing surprise.

Although the Iron Cavalry is not suitable for rushing to the formation, if there is no array in the wild, the Iron Cavalry will completely crush it unilaterally. How can all the Iron Cavalry be scrapped?

"My lord is serious?"

Jia Xu narrowed his gloomy eyes and felt a little cold. Others didn't believe Zhang Xiu, but he believed it...

"nature."

"Lord, if this is true, this plan is feasible."

"Without our army not knowing Cao Chun's Iron Cavalry, it is a common thing to intersperse Xuchang, and Xun Yu will definitely not be suspicious.

By then, as long as you can break the enemy's cavalry and return to the aid camp, you will definitely defeat the enemy's army by attacking both sides. It will not be difficult to take Yingyin in one fell swoop."

Jia Xu stroked his beard and said in a deep voice.

After being recognized by Jia Xu, Zhang Xiu became more confident.

Immediately shouted: "Wen Pin obeys the order. Tonight, you will lead a thousand infantry and cavalry to stay in the camp. Wait for Xun Yu to attack, the infantry will defend the death, and the iron cavalry will be on standby, ready to defeat the enemy at any time."

"The last general takes the order."

"The other generals followed the orders and prepared the sects. They followed me lightly and walked out of the city tonight, making a move towards Xuchang." Zhang Xiu said loudly again.

"Receive the order!"

Then, everyone discussed some details and prepared military horses.

...

It's night,

At the gate of the village,

The three armies were silent, and the cold spears flashed with cold light in the darkness. As for the thousands of soldiers, each with cold faces, most of them had experienced battles on the battlefield.

Some new recruits were timid, terrified, and excited.

Because you have military achievements on the battlefield, you can get promoted, so that you can change your wife two new clothes and let your children eat something with oil and water.

The head of the formation,

Zhang Xiu stepped down to chase the wind and the sun, carrying a tiger-headed gold spear in his hand, wearing iron armor, and his tall and mighty figure showed his heroic spirit.

"Set off!"

He pointed at the spear from a distance and shouted violently.

The village door opened and soldiers came out one after another. There were wooden chariots in the formation. Hu Cheer next to the wooden chariot was very depressed. He was sent by Zhang Xiu to take care of these cardboard boxes.

Of course, he still has a task this time, which is to arrange it neatly as required and ignite the green thing, but he doesn't know the specific one.

In the field outside the camp,

Several scouts were originally confused and wanted to doze off, but suddenly they saw a silence in the camp in the distance, and a large number of troops actually left the city quietly.

After watching for a while, seeing that they were all infantrymen, they knew that something was wrong, the sergeant said in a deep voice: "You are watching here, I'll report to Lingjun."

…………

Yingyin,

In the palace,

The candles swayed, and the generals gathered together and were ready for battle.

After listening to the scout's words, Xun Yu's eyes narrowed and he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"Lingjun, Zhang Xiu must have seen our army staying in the door and want to attack Xuchang. The Xuchang defenders are only 3,000, all of them are old and weak. Never let him succeed." Cao Hong frowned.

Xun Yu ignored it and said anxiously: "Have you ever seen Zhang Xiu lead the infantry and cavalry?"

"When I go back to the king, my subordinates observed the moonlight. There were only dozens of cavalrymen. I think they were Zhang Xiu's personal guards, and the rest were infantrymen, and there were probably thousands of people."

The scout replied.

"Does of cavalry?" Xun Yu murmured while pinching his chin, and couldn't help but lock his eyebrows, "What a good thing, Jia Xu, who actually left all the cavalry in the camp. I think it was to prevent our army from returning to aid, and he really wanted to attack Xuchang."

"Attack Xuchang? Lingjun, Xuchang cannot be misunderstood, otherwise how can we face the lord?" Xiahou Dun opened his eyes angrily and said anxiously.

The loss of Xuchang is equivalent to giving in to Yuzhou. However, the wars in Yanzhou are full of scorched earth, which is difficult to be the foundation. How should Cao Cao gain a foothold?

Xun Yu also knew about these things.

"Don't be anxious," Xun Yu's eyebrows slowly spread, and then he laughed loudly: "Jia Xu, Jia Xu, although you have no choice but to do so, but now you are secrets. Tonight, you will be defeated."

The generals in the mansion were puzzled,

Xu Chu held his sword and walked out wide, and shouted loudly, "Lingjun, how can I defeat the enemy? These days have made me feel bad."

"All the generals obey the orders." Xun Yu was full of energy. He had already seen Zhang Xiu's army defeat and flee. Even though Jia Xu had far-sighted ideas, he never expected that he had arranged an iron cavalry outside the city.

"The last one is here!" Everyone drank together [Yanyu Hongchen Novels     ].
