The most severe moment has also arrived in Zhongtiaoshan Camp.
Dong Zhao walked into the tent with a look of fatigue and sat in the first place on the side.
The military academies couldn't help but turn their eyes to the hanging main seat.
Dong Zhao was silent for a moment and did not speak immediately.
In fact, it would be better for him to choose to sit in the middle at such a moment.
After all, at present, some people in Cao's army were panicked. If one of them stood in the middle and took responsibility, it would naturally make others feel more at ease, but the problem is...
It is easy to sit on, but Dong Zhao cannot afford the responsibility that comes with it.
To be honest, in Shandong, there are not many people who can sit calmly in the middle of the main position when the main general is away and will not be held responsible for the post-war period!
And now there are fewer and fewer...
This responsibility is not just a responsibility for failure. Even if you win, you may be impeached and attacked.
Anyway, Dong Zhao is still a little short of it now, so he dare not sit or do it.
After Dong Zhao was on the verge of Mao, he inspected and coughed, "Everyone, if you have something to discuss, you should do things according to the instructions of the two generals Cao and Lu!"
If we follow the habits of the previous two days, most of these military academies responded and went out one after another, returning to their respective positions. However, some people hesitated and did not move today, while other military academies did not move when they saw someone staying and not leaving.
Dong Zhao frowned slightly.
The military academies were reluctant to speak but stopped, and their expressions seemed a little ugly. They glanced at the other military academies in the tent, and seemed to be sending winks to each other, but no one spoke on his own initiative.
Just looking at this look, Dong Zhao already understood what was going on.
Dong Zhao straightened his waist, looked at the military academies, and said in a deep voice: "Do you have any questions? It's okay to say it straight!"
The military academy was still a little hesitant.
Dong Zhao slapped the table and said, "How can the army be so weak?! If you don't say anything at this moment, don't talk too much in the army! Otherwise, you will be punished with the crime of chaotic troops!"
After hearing Dong Zhao say this, a military academy said: "We, we heard that the governor of Xiahou has surrendered to the cavalry..."
Dong Zhao asked back: "Where do you hear from?"
The military academy replied, "Some soldiers who returned home said... They saw with their own eyes the Governor Xiahou accompanied General Cavalry..."
Dong Zhao said lightly: "These are timid and dispersed, and they escaped at the last minute. In order to shirk responsibility, they blame the governor Xiahou. The Prime Minister has made a conclusion on this statement.
Long before, there were rumors that Xiahou Dun surrendered to the cavalry.
When Cao Cao was still there, of course everyone didn't dare to discuss this matter.
After Cao Hong retreated, there were more people secretly talking about it, but he didn't dare to say it openly.
Now...
Dong Zhao thought that after he said this, this matter was over, but it did not.
The military academies looked at each other, and obviously they were not satisfied with Dong Zhao's statement and were unwilling to accept it.
This is also a side effect of Dong Zhao not sitting in the main seat.
If Dong Zhao really sat on it, the power of life and death would naturally be in control. Of course, these military academies would have to think about it before speaking, otherwise they would have no place to complain if they were dealt with by the military law.
The military academies gave each other a winks, as if they had made some decisions, so they turned to Dong Zhao and asked: "It's not that they are asking the bottom of the matter, but the soldiers want to ask, when is it our turn to withdraw the troops?"
Dong Zhao glanced at the military academy and said, "It's soon, it's the turn."
"Military advisor! That's what I said a few days ago!"
『That's it!』
"When I was in the Anyi camp before, I said that, what's the result?"
"The military advisor can't deceive us anymore!"
Dong Zhaoqi said: "Why do you ask only one person? Why don't you ask me when both Cao and Lu were there before? Why don't you ask me?"
The military academy naturally replied: "The general is in charge of military affairs, but isn't the military advisor responsible for these logistics arrangements? If you don't ask the military advisor, who are you here to ask?"
Dong Zhao is indeed responsible for arranging these projects, but the problem is that Dong Zhao is not alone in letting him leave first and who will leave later.
The affairs in the military camp are often like a mess, and they must be patient in peeling the cocoons and threads. It is impossible to deal with anything immediately when encountering them. Many times, they must be handled in a certain order.
Some time ago, Cao Cao praised Dong Zhao for being patient and having an orderly arrangement. These military academies were also present, and they nodded and said yes. As a result, only a few days have passed, and their attitudes are completely opposite.
"The emperor has issued an edict to fight against the thieves and rebels. The prime minister followed the emperor's edict to pacify Heluo and enter Hedong..." Dong Zhao said slowly, "However, there is a scammer in Shandong that has caused chaos to prevent the prime minister from moving westward and stealing food and grass..."
"Military advisor, military advisor!" The military academies obviously did not want to listen to these reasons, or excuses, but they interrupted Dong Zhao's words impolitely, "Military advisor! It's my husband who is waiting for me to fight on the front line! It's not too late to leave these words after returning to Shandong!"
Dong Zhao was a little angry. Just when he was about to say something, the military academies seemed sad. "Military advisor! I originally had more than a hundred men under my command, but now most of them have been killed or injured! These are all good men! Now..."
"The men who escaped were all saying that they not only saw Governor Xiahou, but also General Cao Zilie!"
"All of us ordinary soldiers are dead! Why can Governor Xiahou still ride a tall horse and chat and laugh with the General of the Cavalry?! What are we fighting?"
"The emperor's edict?! Why did the emperor have an edict, but someone can walk with the thief?!"
"You said that ordinary soldiers can fight the death of the cavalry last moment and chat with the cavalry next moment?"
『…』
The chaotic sound suddenly rang out in the tent.
Dong Zhao originally wanted to explain a few words, but suddenly realized something.
He looked around and didn't see the Cao family's generals.
The Cao family general in charge of logistics!
"Where is the general of Cao?" Dong Zhao asked out loud.
"Military advisor, don't pretend! Didn't you leave after you ordered? You left last night!" the military academy replied.
Dong Zhao then understood why these military academies came to force him to retreat today. He thought a little, and did not argue with the military academies anymore, but slowed down and said in a slowdown: "You can rest assured. The Prime Minister had already made arrangements, and food, clothing, and soldiers were prepared. General Cao went to stand before you fight..."
『Haha…』The military academies couldn't help laughing, 『Military advisor! Do you believe this?
Dong Zhao took a breath, "Whether you believe it or not, I believe it!"
Dong Zhao really wanted to say that even if he withdraws his troops, he still needs to follow the steps. Everyone rushed out in a swarm, which would only cause congestion, and in the end no one could leave.
But it is obvious that the military academies are not able to listen to these words now.
If you can't explain it, you can only break it in a dispersed manner.
Just when Dong Zhao used strategies to differentiate and deal with these military academies, soldiers suddenly rushed out of the tent and reported: "Report to the military advisor! There is an emergency military report!!"
The tent suddenly became quiet!
...
...
It is north of the Zhongtiaoshan camp of Cao's army.
The hidden place of the trench.
It is rumored that there were Baibo thieves hiding here to build villages, so they are also called Zhezigou. However, in this ditch, it is not Baibo thieves, but Sima Yi and Hao Zhao.
At the bottom of the ditch, Sima Yi was sitting on a stone and was thinking about something. Suddenly someone reported: "Person Hao is back!"
Sima Yi turned around and looked down, then walked down the stone and headed towards Hao Zhao.
"Has the fake report been sent in?" When Sima Yi saw Hao Zhao, he took the water bag from the guard beside him and handed it over.
As soon as autumn and winter begins, the wind and sand begin to grow stronger.
The cold wind from the north is mixed with sand and dust. When the wind is strong, it makes people feel like they are polishing their faces with sandpaper!
Therefore, most soldiers and generals in the military have thick skin, cracked skin, and two colors: back and palms.
Hao Zhao took the water, took a little lightly, rinsed his mouth, spit out some of the sand and soil, then took a few sips, let out a long breath, nodded and said, "I've sent it in! I stared at it with my own eyes, watching Cao Jun's whistle and snooping in."
Sima Yi laughed and said, "That's good!"
Hao Zhao also smiled, but he asked again: "Zhongda, can this fake reward really be transferred to Cao's army?"
Sima Yi smiled, but said, "Unsure."
Sima Yi's magical twist almost made Hao Zhao shudder.
"Where..." Hao Zhao suddenly got a little stuck.
uncertain?
Hao Zhao wondered if he had heard it wrong.
"The lord has his own words, and the plan depends on others, and the success depends on heaven." Sima Yi said with a smile, "You can only do your best."
After hearing this, Hao Zhao could only nodded silently.
It is not easy to send a fake report.
The dead soldiers are not a problem, because there are too many wounded people in this war.
Some people with minor injuries can still be expected to recover, but some people with serious injuries cannot ensure a 100% survival rate even with the support of the Hundred Clinic and military doctors.
So among these people, it is not too difficult to find one or two people who are willing to exchange their lives for some meritorious deeds.
What is even more difficult is to teach these dead soldiers some incisions from Cao's army, not only to make these dead soldiers contact the Cao's scouts, but also to make these Cao's scouts believe that the false retribution is true and then bring the false retribution back.
The most difficult thing is to wait for the fake report to be sent in, which may not work, it depends on whether the other party is trapped!
Sima Yi guessed what Hao Zhao was thinking, and said with a smile: "Cao army is indeed heading north, right?"
"The scout's reward is indeed the case." Hao Zhao nodded.
There was no doubt about this, they detected the movement of Cao's army's large group of troops.
These days, small groups of people are hiding whereabouts, and it is difficult to cover up the movements of the large group of people.
"So if so many Cao troops were dispatched, there must be a general of the Cao family... Cao's army dispatched many groups of troops in front and behind, and the Zhongtiaoshan camp must be empty!" Sima Yi gestured with his hand, "A place in Zhongtiaoshan will inevitably send troops to rescue! At that time, we will look for opportunities to break through the outer camp of Zhongtiaoshan and destroy its fortifications! First, we can investigate the virtuality and reality of Cao's camp, and second, we can also detect the arrangements of Cao's army!"
Hao Zhao took a breath, thought for a while, and felt that Sima Yi’s words made sense, so he nodded, waited for a while, and asked again: “Is there any news on the lord? Is there really dangerous situation in the front army camp?”
Sima Yi smiled and said, "The lord is far-sighted, how can he not know that all the front troops are coming out? It is too risky? I guess he has arrived now, so Bo Dao doesn't have to worry. However, Cao's army has been repairing the Zhongtiao Mountain camp for a long time, and there must be many traps. Just as he is about to rush in, he should be careful."
Hao Zhao thought about it and thought that this is the same. He should now be more concerned about the strategy of attacking the Zhongtiaoshan Camp of Cao's army and do the things in front of him well.
As for the front army camp, Xu Chu was responsible, and Sima Yi also wrote an urgent report in advance to Fei Qian. It was not the turn of him, the newly promoted lieutenant, to talk too much, so he and Sima Yi were on the side of the map, thinking about how to avoid Cao's army's detection and how to attack.
Their hidden distance was biased towards the west. Although it was not in the main defense direction of the Cao army, once the troops moved, some traces were difficult to hide, so they needed to lurk to the left and right of Baihaogou first, and they had to be concealed, so they could not be discovered by the forward-driven provocates of Cao army.
At the same time, the two must make some arrangements in the rhythm and arrangement of the offensive to effectively cooperate and coordinate.
The two discussed for a long time before finally determining the steps and methods.
However, even if Sima Yi is extremely talented, he may not be able to predict everything...
...
...
Not only Cao's army, but also Fei Qian, were also covered by the fog on the battlefield.
Fei Qian looked at the front military camp in the distance, stared at the Cao army line further away. After looking for a long time, he put down his telescope, squeezed his dry eyes, closed his eyes and took a rest.
He had a headache.
The opacity of battlefield information is undoubtedly a big problem for every general.
Fei Qian was originally fighting on the back line, so when the information was passed to him, the changes in the battlefield were likely to have already occurred or were developing. Therefore, Fei Qian could deduce some contexts based on the current changes and then make a judgment.
Moreover, Fei Qian's previous strategies were basically the overall situation, and in terms of the details of the battlefield, such as who defeated whom, or the soldier cut down the opponent's flag, was not the most critical issue for Fei Qian.
Fei Qian is more concerned with overall victory or failure, whether the layout of the entire front is complete, etc.
The situation on the front line is obviously more trivial and complex.
Fei Qian looked up at the sky and murmured: "Will the Cao army attack today?"
Fei Qian and his men did not arrive at the scene at the last critical moment. Just like Miti's late policeman, they came out to wash the floor when the person died almost. Instead, they lie in the back of the front military camp in advance.
Cao's army came, but did not fight...
This is very strange.
It also made Fei Qian very confused.
Raid?
Not like.
After all, the raid requires a sudden effect. What does it mean to not attack for a long time?
After learning about the situation reported by Xu Chu, Sima Yi and others on the front line, Fei Qian felt something was wrong. After all, the troops of the front army camp were attracted near Suoyang Pass, which would inevitably lead to the emptiness of the front army camp.
In fact, the general model of war was basically available during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Whether it was the subsequent generals or the God of War, they basically carried forward and created them in the original model.
Fei Qian did not have much so-called revolutionary innovation. He thought Cao's army would come, so he hid behind the front military camp.
Fei Qian was carrying cavalry, so he planned to observe a little further, and then waited for Cao's army to focus on the front military camp before attacking.
But……
How about Fei Si now?
It was indeed as Fei Qian expected that Cao's army came, but after Cao's army came, it did not immediately launch an attack as Fei Qian expected. Instead, it was slowing down and swaying around, as if it was luring Fei Qian's cavalry army to attack.
What did Cao Jun think?
Fei Qian couldn't figure it out, so he had a headache.
If he was a general with ninety-nine force and almost reached the level, he would probably rush out with his troops now, regardless of how Cao's army arranged and designed it, it would be killing and killing anyway!
It's okay to have eighty force.
Unfortunately, Fei Qian has never grown up with Zhan Wuzha all the way to Zhan Wuzha. It seems like that in his armor. Do you really have to go to the battlefield and dance with swords and guns to kill the enemy...
Well, forget it.
『Lord!』
Fei Qian looked back and saw Huang Xu coming.
"Lord, this Cao army has been here for most of the day and has not launched an offensive yet," Huang Xu said, "Can we find that we are here?" But I went to check and found no signs of exposure. The Cao army's escorts were also near the front army camp and did not come to us..."
Fei Qian picked up the telescope again and looked at it carefully.
Although it is blessed by a telescope, the figures of Cao's soldiers in the distance are about the same size as ants.
Of course, Fei Qian felt that he was too small when he looked at Cao Jun with a telescope. Cao Jun would be even more unable to see Fei Qian here, so why didn’t Cao Jun take action?
Should I wait for Xu Chu to return to the army?
Um?
Fei Qian took a breath, and there was really such a possibility.
Fei Qian pondered for a moment, "There must be some changes in Cao's army... Maybe, are you going to ambush Xu Zhongkang?"
If Cao Jun planned this way, it would not be completely impossible.
After all, if Xu Chu knew that his camp was attacked, he might rush back in a hurry. Even if Xu Chu was ambushed in a state of marching, even if he was very brave, ordinary soldiers would receive huge damage.
Moreover, in comparison, it is easy to attack a camp with fortifications, or to ambush the uneven queues of robbery and kill the reinforcements in the middle of the road, which is also a matter of opinion.
Although Fei Qian had a telescope, he was not a clairvoy. He could not know what Cao's army was thinking and what trends he was doing. He could only make a judgment based on the existing information.
"Lord, then what should we do now?"
Huang Xu asked.
Fei Qian thought for a moment, "We're waiting here."
Huang Xu was stunned for a moment, "Will you wait?"
Fei Qian nodded, "That's right. When it gets dark, we'll do it first!"
