Tongguan.

Government office.

Cao Cao was walking back and forth in the hall, and Cao Cao was very confused about whether to send troops to attack the Xiliang camp.

You should know that although the tribes that came to assist the fist have withdrawn, there are at least 100,000 people outside the city who have Ma Chao, Han Sui, and Beigong Boyu.

On the other hand, the Cao army in Tongguan, in addition to the wounded soldiers, only more than 40,000 were able to go to the battlefield.

Forty thousand Cao's troops went to sneak attack the Xiliang camp, which had a total of 100,000 people. This was a very risky thing.

However, judging from the current situation is another rare opportunity.

On the battlefield, fighter jets are fleeting.

At this time, the sky was gradually getting dark.

"Report..."

"Report to the King of Wei, the grassland tribes have been evacuated a hundred miles away from Tongguan. It was already dark, and our scouts dare not follow us." The scouts who were sent by Cao Cao to stare at the grassland tribes reported.

You know, this army can follow from afar during the day and observe the traces of the army's marching. But this night, there is no way to follow. It is so dark that it can't be seen. If you light a torch, wouldn't it be exposed?

"The grassland tribes have evacuated a hundred miles away, and it seems that they have really left." Cao Cao murmured to himself. At this time, his determination to attack Xiliang Camp at night was a little firmer.

You know, this is a battle with huge force disparity. It was originally very difficult for the Cao army to defend Tongguan alone, but if he defeated the Xiliang army in this chapter, then Cao Cao would be famous all over the world.

Moreover, once the Xiliang army is defeated, it will be able to gather a large number of troops. If this happens, the battle situation in Tongguan can be used to feed back the battle situation in Yanjin. At all times, Yuan Benchu ​​will definitely be defeated.

However, he was Cao Cao after all, and under such circumstances, he still suppressed the impulse to move troops in his heart.

"You can't be reckless, you must never be reckless."

"Now, you can't make any mistakes in every step. If you make any mistakes, you will make every mistake in every step." Cao Cao muttered in his heart.

"Continue to send extra staff and keep a close eye on Xiliang Camp. If there is any abnormal movement in Xiliang Camp, report to me as soon as possible." Cao Cao ordered.

Cao Cao was too stable and suspicious by nature, which made him not sure and would never take action rashly.

Time has passed, and midnight has passed.

Xiliang Daying.

"Military advisor, is your plan OK? Why didn't Cao Cao come to attack the camp yet?" Beigong Boyu was a little anxious.

Their soldiers had already been ambushed and had been waiting for the middle of the night, but Cao Cao just didn't come. If he was waiting, it would be the second half of the night.

"Military advisor, could it be our plan that Cao Mengde has seen through?" Pang De asked, stroking his long beard.

Cheng Gongying thought for a moment and said confidently: "No, there is no mistake in the entire plan. In theory, Cao Mengde will never see through our plan."

"If Cao Mengde brought military advisor Guo Fengxiao this time, I would naturally not show off my skills, but Cao Mengde came alone. I expected that he would not be able to see through my plan."

"Military advisor, don't worry whether he sees it or not, will it be useless for us to not attack the camp if Cao's army does not come to attack the camp?" Beigong Boyu continued.

Cheng Gongying was pondering, as if she was deducing the entire plan in her mind. After a long time, Cheng Gongying spoke out: "It seems that Cao Mengde's suspicion is worse than I thought. He was suspicious, so he has not sent troops for a long time!"

"I think Cao Mengde should be waiting for the civil strife of our Xiliang army. If my lord dies, according to common sense, the two of them will inevitably annex our troops!"

"General Han Sui and General Beigong, please send some troops around the camp to make a fight." Cheng Gongying ordered.

When Cheng Gongying said this, the light of his eyes looked at Han Sui and Beigong Boyu. His words were also a test, wanting to see if their expressions were abnormal.

When he heard Cheng Gongying say this, Beigong Boyu's face changed, while Han Sui's face was impermanent.

"Ha ha!"

"Mr. Gongying was joking. Shoucheng and I are sworn brothers. Meng Qi is my nephew. How could we annex the Ma family's troops?"

"However, since the military advisor uses a trick, let's try it!" Han Sui laughed loudly.

After Han Sui and Beigong Boyu left, Cheng Gongying said to Pang De: "General Pang De, you can order 20,000 elite soldiers first to wait for the order."

After giving Pang De instructions, Cheng Gongying ordered Ma Dai again: "General Ma Dai, go and take people to find some wood quickly and nail out a coffin."

According to Cheng Gongying's order, Han Sui and Beigong Boyu sent troops to pretend to fight inside and outside the Xiliang camp. In the Xiliang camp, piles of fires were lit from time to time, as if burning the camp tent.

At this time, Cao Cao's scouts were everywhere outside the Xiliang camp, and all this scene was seen clearly by these scouts.

"Fighting, fighting!"

"As expected, the Xiliang camp was in chaos." The scout of Cao's army murmured to himself.

"Hurry, inform the King of Wei about the situation here." The scout of Cao's army immediately ordered.

At this time, Pang De and Ma Dai were also ready in the Xiliang camp.

"Lord, I have to ask you to feel wronged and stay in this coffin for a while." Cheng Gongying said to Ma Chao.

"No, this living person is so unlucky after entering the coffin." Ma Dai hurriedly stopped him.

If I had known that the coffin was shot out and my elder brother would have to go in, Ma Dai would not do this.

"What's bad luck or not? We're going to find Cao's bad luck."

"If we can take Cao Ai Ben's life, it will be worth it to let me, Ma Mengqi sleep in this coffin." Ma Chao said, and ordered someone to help him into the coffin.

Ma Chao entered the coffin by himself, and Ma Dai didn't dare to say anything more.

At this time, Cheng Gongying ordered: "Two generals, let's go. After leaving the camp, we pretend to be in a hurry and head straight to Wuwei."

After receiving Cheng Gongying's order, Pang De took the lead and the rear of Ma Dai Palace, with 20,000 soldiers who looked like defeated soldiers, escorted the coffin out of the camp.

"General, look, where..." a scout pointed to the north and said.

"The one with a long beard is Pang De, and the one behind should be Ma Dai."

"The coffin, the coffin must be Ma Chao's body."

"It seems that in the civil strife of the Western Liang army, the Ma family's troops should have been annexed by Han Sui and Beigong Boyu. Pang De and Ma Dai led the remnants of the army and wanted to escort Ma Chao's body back to Wuwei." At this time, the scout of the Cao army had already figured out the whole thing.

"General, what should we do?" asked the scout Cao Jun behind him.

"what to do?"
