After Cao Ren made the arrangements, he began to prepare for the implementation of this plan.

In any case, it must be completed before the arrival of the Sun-Liu coalition forces, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable once they are surrounded by them.

The military meeting ended, and Cao Xiu took Cai Wu to various villages to collect ships. If there was any inconvenience in communication, he had to pull out the Cai family's banner.

Anyway, the bad things were done by the Cai family in Jingzhou, and Cao Xiu still thought about regaining the image of his soldiers in the hearts of the people of Jingzhou.

I have to say that Cao Xiu was really effective for ordinary people by holding Cai Wu’s flag.

At least in their perception, the Cai family brought Cao's soldiers to snatch their ships for the sake of glory and wealth.

And this news soon reached Guan Ping's ears.

After half a day of fighting, there are still four levels left in the nine-layer deer antlers standing across the road.

The soldiers under Li Tong suffered a great blow to pull out the antlers. The more they advanced, the more soldiers under him were injured and killed.

As night fell, both sides retreated with their bodies.

The three thousand crossbowmen under Guan Yu's command cost a huge amount of arrows, with only ten left in a pot of fifty arrows.

If it weren't for the navy's sailing, there would be enough arrow reserves, and they wouldn't always shoot arrows.

Even if there are enough arrows, the crossbowman's arms need to rest.

Fortunately, there were enough arrows accumulated on the eve, and the rear was slowly being made, and there was no missing.

The sky became dark and both sides stopped.

Apart from a few deer antlers on the battlefield, the rest were arrows densely inserted on the ground.

In the handsome tent, Mr. Guan Er turned his left arm and always felt a little uncomfortable. Looking at the sky, I was afraid there would be rain tonight.

This prevented Xu Gongming from mobilizing oil, igniting the antlers at night, and burning them all.

Guan Ping waved his hand and asked the whistleman to go out for a rest.

"Father, according to the feedback from the whistle cavalry, Cai Wu was leading Cao's army to forcibly conquer the boats of the people in Nanjun.

It seems that I want to fight from the Han River to the front of us and attack us in front of us."

Mr. Guan Er continued to wave his arm and nodded:

"Kong Ming confronted us in front of us and forced us to pull out the antlers. Cao Ren wanted to go out to repair the plank road openly and secretly overcome the old things in Chen Cang, but this action was a bit too big."

"What my father said is reasonable, and I also find it very strange. Could it be that Cao Ren wants to break through in both water and land?"

Guan Ping did not understand the enemy's plans, and he had to clearly know his own advantages over the Han River.

It is definitely not something that Cao's army can afford to fight for boats.

Mr. Guan Er waved his arms slowly and was thinking carefully.

"General Guan, the problem is that Cao Ren wanted to attack through water, and it should be quietly, rather than so much fanfare, which is not in common sense."

Ma Liang, who was sent to deliver the letter, raised his white eyebrows and said.

"It is not necessarily true that Cao's army wants to hide it from so many boats. It is better to be generous and confusing us and making us unable to understand their true intentions."

Guan Ping said another thing about the predicament he was facing.

Cao Ren’s dynamics are unknown now and cannot make a clear judgment.

"If tomorrow is not out, the remaining four layers of deer antlers will inevitably be pulled out." Mr. Guan Er touched his long beard and said with his hands behind his back:

"Maybe Gong Ming will act tonight, but it will rain tonight, so there is no need to burn it. Our arrangements cannot be burned with fire."

"We didn't plan to stop them just by using deer antlers, but just to attack Cao's soldiers and weaken them layer by layer."

Guan Ping knew that it was cloudy and rainy tonight, and the flame performance prepared for the people on the top of the mountain would not be able to be performed as scheduled.

Let them escape.

"General Guan, since we cannot judge in a short period of time, we still have to wait and see."

Ma Liang gave a suggestion, and he believed that Cao Ren must have plans that he had not guessed thoroughly.

In addition, Cao's army was unclear in its actions, so it should not cause trouble.

Guan Ping also nodded in agreement and said, "Mr. Ji Chang said it is good. I have never come up with any effective plan. I still have to wait and see what happens."

Xing Daorong, who was sitting in the corner, nodded in agreement. Once the major general said there was no plan, he would probably have a plan in his mind.

The opportunity to make meritorious service to kill Cao General is coming again.

This time, I, Old Xing, must seize it!

Mr. Zhang San sat in the tent and spoke directly: "Second brother, as far as I can see, will you attack Cao's camp tonight so that they won't run away."

"Don't joke with the third uncle. Could it be that we can pull out the antlers ourselves and then go to raid the Cao army's camp?"

"Haha." Mr. Zhang's laughter shook his tent: "Big nephew, you are pretty smart. Uncle Third, my plan is to attack Cao Ren's dog thirty miles away at night."

"Attack Cao Ren by boat?"

Guan Ping thought about it carefully. If he had sent someone to mobilize a few warships at this time, he would have more than enough time at night when he was thirty miles away.

Mr. Guan Er pondered for a while, and it was difficult to judge just by relying on Cao's army to conquer boats.

However, this is common sense for Cao's army to be unfamiliar with water wars. The key is that they do not have any big ships yet, and their advantages on the waterway lie in their own side.

Now they collect boats and walk on water, and they always want to make a fool of themselves no matter how they look at it.

Either you want to let your side relax your vigilance or you want to cheat your hidden fleet out.

As for the night attack, Mr. Guan Er did not agree with it.

Since Cao Ren wants to lure his warship out, he can't come out. Let's see if he will set off after collecting the boats.

"Second brother, please be calm and wait until you find out more news before talking about other things." Mr. Guan Er gave the order directly: "The Cao army will only take action. How can we act rashly and get rid of our own stance?"

"Here."

The generals stood up and returned to their tents to rest.

Everyone needs to build up their strength, and tomorrow will be a bloody battle.

Mr. Zhang San sat in place, pressed his nose and said, "Second brother, I think what I said just now is fine. I can capture Cao Ren while the night is in full swing."

Mr. Guan Er stood up and walked back and forth a few times and said, "Third brother, this matter is too imaginative and unrealistic, and it will also reveal our true intentions."

At this moment, Kara thunder exploded in the sky.

And the lightning flash had already passed by.

Guan Ping didn't say anything, and was thinking that it was indeed a good opportunity to raid Cao Ren, especially on rainy nights.

But the problem is that it will also disrupt your early deployment, which will be detrimental to your side.

"Father, if it rains heavily, the arrangements behind us will inevitably be exposed.

Uncle San, but if you attack suddenly, you may not be able to successfully catch Cao Ren. After all, Cao Ren will not wait to be there and ask you to catch him.

We cannot use the fire to cause riots in the Caojun camp, so we should not move lightly."

Guan Ping also expressed his opinion. It was all about a reckless spirit to attack the camp on a rainy night. It might be successful, but more of it was unfavorable.

The rockets and fire cannot be used better, and even the bow cannot be taken out. They need to be maintained properly to avoid loosening when encountering water.

However, the protective ability of the leather armor worn by the soldiers under his command may be enhanced by one or two, which means that the ability will be greatly weakened in the future.

Rainy days are not suitable for both sides to fight.

After Mr. Zhang pressed his nose, he said directly: "Okay, you father and son have said that, why are I going to go to bed?"

Mr. Guan Er touched his long beard without saying anything. He had long been used to his third brother's temperament.

But what should be said must be said: it is not so easy to attack Cao’s camp at night, and Cao Ren has long legs.

Mr. Zhang sprinted out of the tent. At this time, the lightning in the sky had just flashed and blinked a few times.

The thunder sounded again in my ears.

"Father, I'm worried that Li Tong and others will take advantage of the night to pull out their antlers." Guan Ping directly expressed his concern.

Arrows in the army are enough, but once it rains.

Guan Ping cannot let the archers go out to guard. The time to make a hard bow is much more than that of arrows, and it also costs more.

On rainy days, you should also protect the bow. At the same time, the places where arrows are stored should not only be fire-proof, but also moisture-proof.

Mr. Guan Er touched his long beard and said, "If I were Gongming, I would definitely not let this kind of weather go. We can't stop it, so we can only watch Cao Jun pull out the antlers there."

The drizzle outside the tent has begun to drizzle.

The rainfall that fell on the tent quickly flowed down without a trace of gathering.

"Even so, even if we waste bows and arrows, we still have to stop them."

Guan Ping would never allow Li Tong and Xu Huang to pull out the antlers safely.

How could Cao's army be worthy of the Han River that the soldiers under his command had worked hard to flow?

Guan Yu nodded. This was reasonable. He would rather give up the bow and arrow than let the Cao army soldiers stay.
