The Three Kingdoms started from fooling Jia Xu

Chapter 27 A good strategy to defeat the enemy
A few days later,
Zhang Xiu led the crowd back to the camp.

In the past few days, Zhang Xiu sent people to beat the drums and call for battle, but Yingyin was like a dead city, and there was no response, even Xu Chu and his fellow were silent.

inside the tent,
"Now that Xun Yu insists on defending to the death, do you have any good strategies to defeat the enemy?" Zhang Xiu looked at the crowd and asked.

Everyone looked at each other, then Hu Che'er clasped his fists and said angrily, "My lord, give me three thousand elite soldiers, and within three days I will be able to conquer Yingyin."

Zhang Xiu rolled her eyes, and said to herself, fuck you!
Although he has never led an army to fight, he has seen Sun Tzu's Art of War.Surrounded by ten times, attacked by five times is still heard.

In his situation, he can only find a way to lure the enemy into a field battle and wipe them out.

"My lord, there are infantry in Yingyin City, why don't you leave the iron cavalry behind and watch Xunyu's infantry. Our infantry crossed Yingyin and approached Xuchang.

If you want to come to Xuchang to be empty, if you see a large army approaching the city, you may surrender without a fight. Wenpin hesitated for a while, and said in a deep voice.

Zhang Xiu pondered for a while, and looked at Jia Xu, because the latter had been frowning in thought.

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

"My lord, although General Wen's plan has the essence of the art of war, it can be regarded as impossible." Jia Xu frowned and thought.

"As far as I know, Cao Cao has bought a lot of war horses with Xiliang soldiers in recent years and formed an iron cavalry. The general of this cavalry is Cao Chun, a brother of Cao Cao's clan."

"But now that this iron cavalry has disappeared, I'm afraid it is Xun Yu's back-up, because he is afraid that our army will go straight to Xuchang. Therefore, this iron cavalry should be on standby in the counties around Yingyin."

"What they are waiting for is our army interspersed to fight. In this way, let alone [-] soldiers, even [-] armored soldiers can hardly be defeated by iron cavalry in the wild."

After finishing speaking, Jia Xu's eyes were full of solemnity.

"Tiger and leopard rider?" Zhang Xiu blurted out, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.The tiger and leopard cavalry showed great strength after Guandu, but it is unknown when this cavalry was formed.

However, it is very difficult to form cavalry at this time. It is thought that Cao Chun controls the tiger and leopard cavalry that is being formed.

"Wenhe, are you sure?"

Zhang Xiu squinted his eyes and thought about it. He still had dozens of boxes of 64-sounding fireworks. Usually, this thing can only be heard for a while, but it might have a miraculous effect on dealing with cavalry, so he asked anxiously.

Jia Xu nodded heavily, "In the early years, Cao Cao colluded with the subordinates of the two thieves Li and Guo, and they bought and sold war horses. At that time, Xu sent people to investigate secretly."

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

Zhang Xiu laughed heartily.

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

"My lord, what do you mean by that?"

Jia Xu prided herself on being a bit intelligent, but at this time she was also at a loss.

"The key to defeating 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 surprise attack while our army is marching or setting up camp."

"Besides, if I were Xun Yu, I would order the infantry to attack the two thousand cavalry who stayed behind in the camp.

In this way, on the one hand, it will make our army's cavalry useless, and on the other hand, he can cut off our army's retreat, and then the army will be distracted.The danger of Xuchang was easily resolved, and it was even possible to take back the counties of Yingchuan. "

Zhang Xiu was sonorous and powerful.

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

That's true, Xun Yu will not advance blindly, but how can such a fighter opportunity be in front of him?

It's just that if you know this and still go your own way, wouldn't it be moths jumping into the flames to kill themselves?

"My lord, since we already know that our army will be defeated, why did we win?" Jia Xu was puzzled.

"No, our army will win this battle."

"I have something that can destroy Cao Chun's cavalry." Zhang Xiu said charmingly.

"Can you abolish Cao Chun's cavalry?"

Everyone in the tent exclaimed in unison, showing surprise.

Although the iron cavalry is not suitable for charging, if there is no formation in the wild, the iron cavalry is completely unilaterally crushed. How can we use up Cao Chun's iron cavalry?
"My lord, is this true?"

Jia Xu's dark eyes narrowed, feeling a little cold, others didn't believe Zhang Xiu, but he did. .

"nature."

"My lord, if this is the case, this plan is feasible."

"Unknown to Cao Chun's iron cavalry, it is common for our army to pass through Xuchang, so Xun Yu will not be suspicious.

At that time, as long as they can defeat the enemy's iron cavalry and return to the reinforcement camp, they will definitely defeat the enemy's army by attacking from both sides. It will not be difficult to win Yingyin in one fell swoop. "

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

With Jia Xu's approval, Zhang Xiu became more confident,
Immediately shouted: "Wenpin listens to the order. Tonight, you will lead the cavalry to stay in the camp with thousands of people. When Xun Yu comes to attack, the infantry will stand firm and the cavalry will stand by. They are ready to attack and destroy the enemy at any time."

"The last general takes orders."

"The rest of the generals listened to the order and prepared their parts. Tonight, follow me lightly, walk out of the city, and try to approach Xuchang." Zhang Xiu shouted again.

"Leader!"

Then, everyone discussed some details, and then prepared their troops one after another.

……

That night,

at the gate of the village,
The three armies were silent, and the cold spears shone coldly in the dark night. As for the thousands of soldiers, each of them had cold faces, and most of them had experienced fighting on the battlefield.

Some recruits were timid, frightened, and excited.

Because you have military merits on the battlefield, military merits can lead to promotion, so you can change your wife into two new clothes and let your children eat something oily and watery.

head of battle,

Zhang Xiu stepped down to chase the wind and chase the sun, carrying a tiger-headed golden gun and wearing an iron armor. His tall and mighty figure is full of heroism.

"set off!"

Pointing the spear, he shouted violently.

The gate of the village was opened, and the soldiers came out in single file.There were wooden carts in the formation, and Hu Che'er next to the wooden cart was very depressed, and he was sent by Zhang Xiu to guard the cardboard boxes.

Of course, this time he still has a task, which is to ignite the green thing after arranging them neatly as required, but he doesn't know the details.

In the field outside the camp,

A few scouts were trying to doze off in a daze, but they suddenly saw figures in the camp in the distance, and a large group of troops quietly left the city.

After watching for a while, seeing that they were all pawns, and knowing that something was wrong, the corporal leader said in a deep voice, "You guys stay here and watch, I'll report to Lingjun."

…………

Ying Yin,

In the general mansion,
The candles flickered, and all the generals gathered, ready to fight.

At this time, after the scout finished speaking, Xun Yu's eyes were fixed, and he couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

"Lingjun, this embroidery must have seen our army stay behind closed doors and wanted to attack Xuchang by surprise. Xuchang's defenders are only three thousand, and they are all old and weak. He must not be allowed to succeed." Cao Hong said with a frown.

Xun Yu didn't pay attention, but said anxiously: "Have you ever seen Zhang Xiu leading the cavalry?"

"Hui Lingjun, my subordinates observed by the moonlight, there are only a few dozen cavalrymen, presumably they are Zhang Xiu's personal guards, and the rest are infantry, there may be thousands of them."

replied the scout.

"Dozens of cavalry?" Xun Yu muttered while pinching his chin, and couldn't help frowning, "What a Jia Xu, he left all the iron cavalry in the camp, presumably to prevent our army from returning to help, but he was really determined to attack. Xuchang."

"Attack Xuchang? Your lord, Xuchang must not make mistakes, otherwise how will we face the lord?" Xiahou Dun said anxiously, his one-eyed eyes widening angrily.

The loss of Xuchang is tantamount to the handover of Yuzhou, and the war is raging in Yanzhou. It is all scorched earth and it is difficult to build a foundation. So how should Cao Cao gain a foothold?
Xun Yu is also aware of these.

"Don't be in a hurry before Yuan Ren," Xun Yu raised his brows slowly, and then laughed loudly: "Jia Xu, Jia Xu, although you have no plans, but today you have kept everything secret. Tonight, you will be defeated."

The generals in the mansion were puzzled,

Xu Chu strode out with his sword supported, and said anxiously, "Lingjun, how do you defeat the enemy? These days have suffocated me."

"All generals obey orders." Xun Yu was in high spirits. He had already seen Zhang Xiu's army fleeing. Even though Jia Xu was far-sighted, he never imagined that he had arranged an iron cavalry outside the city.

"The end is here!" Everyone shouted.

"Xiahoudun and Cao Hong listened to the order and immediately assembled an army of [-]. They made food at the third watch and set off at the fourth watch, heading straight for the enemy's camp." Xun Yu said loudly.

Fifth is the darkest time of the day, when people are most sleepy and horses are most exhausted. This time is the best time to sneak attack.

What's more, there are only [-] cavalry guarding the camp in Zhangxiu's camp, which can't be used at all.

"Promise!" The two clasped their fists in response, but they were quite puzzled.

"Cai Fan listens to the order. You lead thousands of infantry to guard Yingyin. No one is allowed to open the city gate unless I have a warrant."

"The last general takes orders." Cai Fan responded.

Seeing that Xun Yu didn't respond, Xu Chu became anxious, "Ling Jun, where is Xu Chu?"

"Haha, don't worry, Zhongkang, you are so brave, you should behead Zhang Xiu.

In this way, you go down immediately to prepare, and later you will go out of the city and go straight to Linying.I passed my password to Cao Chun, ordering him to organize the army, with a man in the title, a horse with hooves bound, and Wu Gengtian to cover and kill Zhang Xiu. "

"I think Zhang Xiu didn't prepare for it, and he will be defeated. At that time, Zhongkang, you will take advantage of the chaos and decapitate him. Then it will be counted as your great contribution."

Xun Yu made arrangements.

"Hey, don't worry, Chu will cut off Zhang's embroidered dog's head and present it to the tent." Xu Chu patted his chest and shouted excitedly.

Following the orders of the people to retreat, the mansion was empty.

Xun Yu deduced for a while and felt that there was no problem, but for some reason, he felt a little uneasy in his heart. Was it too smooth?
But the whole process was reasonable, Jia Xu didn't know that Cao Chuntie was riding in Linying, so it was common sense to take a detour and go straight to Xuchang.

…………

At three o'clock,

That is eleven o'clock.

At this time, in Yingyin City, the soldiers were all wearing armor, drinking vegetable soup and eating corn around the stove.

While the generals held their swords, they continued to inspect their respective parts and check their armor and equipment.

In a blink of an eye, four watches.

At this time, the soldiers had assembled, Xiahou Dun Cao Hong stepped on his horse, holding a weapon, his face was cold and excited.

they are waiting,

"Report~, General Xiahou, there is no abnormality in the enemy's camp, and there are fewer sentries at night than during the day. I think they are exhausted and have gone to rest."

"Report~General, Zhang Xiu's pawns have marched eastward for more than [-] li, and General Cao Chun is already waiting at the crossing, nothing unusual."

A series of two sentinels came to report, Xiahoudun grinned and couldn't help raising his knife and shouting: "Let's go..."

But Xun Yu next to him had a worried expression on his face. He always felt that something was wrong. Is it just because Jia Xu didn't know the existence of Cao Chun's cavalry?
When the three armies had left the camp, he was still worried, "Cai Fan, you lead the army to guard Yingyin, and no one is allowed to open the gate except for my own orders."

"No," Cai Fan nodded.

"Come on, prepare the horse, I will personally go to supervise the battle."
