The first thousand and forty-two chapters take advantage of the emptiness to enter
The man in black robes ran wildly and finally came to a huge and brand new camp.
"Stop, who is coming?" The guard at the door stopped him.
The man in black robe did not answer, raised a token high, the guard glanced at him, looked at him, and hurriedly let him go. The man barely stopped and rushed into the military camp.
He came all the way outside the coach's tent, and he had no taboos. He directly opened the curtain and walked in quickly.
Inside the commander's tent were Cao Cao, Cheng Yu, Xiahou Yuan and others, including Xiahou Dun and other generals who had not recovered from their injuries, and were also present in turn.
After seeing this person come in and kneel down on the ground, everyone feels a little bit energetic.
"But the evil came and had news about Hu Chi?" Cao Cao asked hurriedly.
The man in black robe said, "When he returned to his lord, his subordinates saw a sudden fire in Hulao Pass. The fire broke out. The smoke rose, causing many soldiers guarding the pass to put out the fire."
"That's great." Xiahou Yuan smiled: "It must be that after Dian Wei and Xu Chu successfully attacked the pass, the city pass is now empty, and it is the time when our army advances again and avenges the shame."
"Please fight at the end!"
"Please fight too!"
Seeing the many generals standing up, Cao Cao seemed a little excited, but he was a hero for life and did not lose his mind because of this.
Cao Cao looked at the strategists: "How do you guys view this matter?"
Xi Zhong said first: "The lord gave two generals a gift, and it was determined that the Flying Eagle Guard would find them crossing the mountains and send people to intercept them. However, he would not know that the Pingshan Flying Army formed by the lord was the nemesis of the cavalry. If he wanted to achieve the goal of intercepting as soon as possible, he would definitely send cavalry. In this way, it would be defeated by our army. This is a natural matter. Now I don't know which cavalry commander under Liu He was defeated and died. In short, there was already chaos in the pass, which was an excellent opportunity for our army to send troops. However, this method of advancing still needs to be considered."
"I thought it would not be the case." Cheng Yu stood up to object.
"Oh? What are the insights of Zhongde?" Cao Cao asked.
Cheng Yu bowed his hands and stood up: "Liu He is definitely not an incompetent person. Xun Yu, Xun You, Cui Jun and others are even more good plans in the world. Hulao Guanzhong, and even the peerless generals such as Guan Yu, Zhao Yun, Zhang Yong, and Gao Shun. Even if the two generals succeeded for a while, they would only cause some chaos and would not affect the overall situation at all."
"Our army was defeated a few days ago, and its vitality was not restored and its morale was not determined. Even if we sent troops to seize the pass, it would be a bloody battle and it would be difficult to achieve results. Even if we were lucky enough to succeed, it would be a loss of troops and generals, and in the end it would be a waste of money."
"Well..." Cao Cao kept nodding: "What should our army do now in Zhongde's opinion?"
"It's very simple. The lord ordered several detailed works to sneak into the pass, and sent a message to the two generals, asking them to lead their troops to attack only after the pass, and try to avoid head-on battles. As long as the Pingshan Flying Army takes off its armor, they can come and go freely in the mountains and forests. Even if Liu He is determined to chase and kill, he will not be able to do it. When the enemy is tired after a few days of harassment, our army will contact Liu Bei and send troops together, and you will be sure to win."
Cao Cao thought about it, not knowing whether he agreed or not.
He then looked at Guo Jia: "What do you think about Fengxiao?"
Guo Jia said: "I agree with Mr. Cheng's statement. It is not convenient for our army to attack the city at the moment. However, I don't think it should contact Liu Bei to attack together in a few days. Instead, I should continue to watch the fire from across the river and wait for news."
"Oh? Wait for the news?" Cao Cao was a little confused, so he said: "What news?"
Guo Jia smiled: "Master, have you forgotten that this time, our army and Liu Bei are not the only ones who came to attack Luoyang. Then Sun Jian disappeared after he joined forces. It has been a few days since the alliance. Does the lord want to know where he went?"
Cao Cao's eyes lit up: "It's not Fengxiao's reminder, Cao almost forgot. Fengxiao means that Sun Jian will appear after he disappears for many days?"
Guo Jia said: "That's right. Not only did it appear, it also appeared in the weakest place of the enemy. Even if Liu He found out the news, it would be difficult for him to quickly rush to help."
Cao Cao thought for a moment and suddenly said, "Hangu Pass!"
"Yes, wise, the lord is Hangu Pass." Guo Jia said solemnly: "Liu He transferred all the troops and horses in Hangu Pass and even Chang'an City to guard Hulao Pass, whether it is Hangu Pass or the Tongguan he had just built a few years ago, now there is almost an empty pass, with only a few thousand defenders. Sun Jian's army hides the news, not because he retreats in the face of the battle, fearing Liu He, but wants to take advantage of the situation and occupy Luoyang first at the least cost. In this way, he becomes the biggest beneficiary of this battle."
Xiahou Yuan looked angry: "This Sun Jian is so hateful. He really let him succeed. At that time, he occupied Luoyang. It was the time when the morale of the army was greatly boosted. Isn't it easy to deal with the army that was damaged after fierce battles and exhausted? Humph, it was said that it was an alliance, but he plotted against us everywhere. It was tolerant, but who would not bear it."
Guo Jia smiled and persuaded Xiahou Yuan: "General Miaocai doesn't need to be angry. The more Sun Jian has this intention, the more he will be in our army's will."
Cao Cao narrowed his eyes and thoughtful.
"The intention of filial piety is to wait until Sun Jian attacks Hangu Pass and when our army advances?"
"That's true. Hangu Pass has few major generals, and it is impossible for him to block Sun Jian's 150,000 troops. Hangu Pass is only more than 40 miles away from Luoyang City. Once Hangu Pass is lost, Luoyang will be in a blink of an eye. Liu He must not sit idly by. The movements of the flying army in Pingshan can be found. Once Sun Jian's army reveals its traces, how can it be hidden from Liu He? To deal with Sun Jian's 150,000 troops, Liu He will at least draw more than 100,000 troops from Hulao Pass to rush for assistance. By then, they will fight to the death, and it will be the time when our army seizes Hulao Pass."
"It's so wonderful, hahaha." Cao Cao laughed happily.
Even Cheng Yu, who had always been a little disliked by Guo Jia, stood up and said: "This is a dignified and open plot. Even if Liu He saw through our army's intentions, it is impossible for him to ignore the battle at Hangu Pass."
Cao Cao immediately made up his mind: "Okay, let's do it as it should. I want to see if Liu He can have three heads and six arms..."
Cao Cao was relieved, but after Hulao Pass, Dian Wei and others fell into a tough battle. Guan Yu led five thousand horse-slinging cavalry and only rushed back and forth twice. Pingshan Flying Army had suffered heavy losses and could hardly find a complete piece of armor.
"Thief!" Guan Yu shouted angrily: "You will be punished by killing my great prince. You can't forgive me. Then you will take your life to repay it."
He threw away the horse spear, picked up the Qinglong Yanyue Sword again, and ran to Dian Wei.
"Puffing..." Just as the two sides started a close-range battle again, the carrier pigeon landed in front of Liu He.
Liu He reached out to grab the ancient pigeon, took off the letter from his leg, took a look, and then put away the letter as if he was not good at the ancient well.
"As Gongda expected, Sun Jian really went to Hangu Pass."
In Liu He's eyes, the two emotions of anger and disdain were mixed together.
