Chapter 288 Together with the peerless beauty, discussing Guandu
boom…
With a whistle, Cao Ying's elite cavalry followed and lit a fire together. They all carried flints and dry firewood with them. In an instant... the entire Wuchao turned into a vast sea of flames.
Cao Cao was a little surprised...
According to the information provided by Xu You, the man stationed at Wuchao was Yuan Shao's general Chunyu Qiong, although Xu You despised this guy and felt that he was not worthy of his name.
But Cao Cao knew that Chunyu Qiong was still somewhat capable.
At that time, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty established eight captains in Xiyuan. The second-ranked one was Yuan Shao, the seventh-ranked one was Cao Cao, and the fourth-ranked one was Chunyu Qiong...
The Eighth Lieutenant of Xiyuan can be said to be the most elite talents in the world. To be among them is a testament to Chun Yuqiong's abilities.
But... what surprised Cao Cao was that the five thousand elite cavalry all rushed to Wuchao, setting fires and killing them. Why was the reinforcement guard Chun Yuqiong nowhere to be seen?
Of course.
Cao Cao was surprised, but Soldier Yuan was not surprised. At this time, Chunyu Qiong was sleeping soundly!
As for the reason, it was precisely the seventy jars of fine wine sent from Dukang Village that were looted...
…
But outside the Chinese army's tent, the firelight and human figures overlapped each other, and the sounds of killing and footsteps converged to form a beautiful harmony.
Chunyu Qiong never dreamed that on this day when the dog eats the sun, Cao Cao would come and kill her... in vain.
He would never have imagined that the plundered batch of fine wine was so strong that he fell asleep before drinking even half of the jar.
By the time he was awakened, put on his armor, picked up his weapons and walked out of the Chinese army tent, the fire in Wuchao had already been lit!
Countless soldiers of Yuan's army are being surrounded by fires spreading everywhere... and the most elite soldiers of Cao's army.
After all, Chunyu Qiong is an old Jianghu...
Although I was too lazy to do some cooking and my awareness of precautions was a bit low, my military quality was still excellent. I had seen this kind of melee situation several times since I joined the army.
As soon as the cool breeze blew, he suddenly woke up.
He began to calm the morale of the troops.
"The captains of each battalion send out troops to fight and guard the main roads. If the captain dies in battle, the deputy captain will take command. If the deputy captain dies in battle, the commander will take command..."
Chunyu Qiong immediately ordered all battalions to go into battle.
Although his legs are still a little wobbly, his mind is still clear...
More importantly, he discovered an important piece of information. Although Wuchao was ablaze and in chaos, it could be seen from the fire that the number of Cao's troops was not very large, not even half of his Wuchao garrison!
This time Chunyu Qiong's tiger body trembled...
If the food is burned, just burn it. As long as the morale of the army is stabilized and Cao Jun's attack is defeated, the opponent will gain blood and he will not lose!
If you can catch Cao Cao, it will be a great achievement!
In an instant…
Yuan's army, which was originally lax, suddenly gathered together, and they set up a battle formation to fight to the death with Cao's army.
"Hold on, hold on..." Chunyu Qiong commanded. "The reinforcements will arrive in half an hour at most, so hold on!"
Just like Chunyu Qiong said.
The news of the burning of Wuchao quickly reached Yuan Shao's ears... In such a critical situation, there is no time to make a mistake? What will Yuan Shao do?
…
…
In the south of Guandu, there is a resort and an inn.
In the distance, the shouts of killing gradually sounded... Lu Lingqi hurried to the door of the inn, standing on tiptoes to look out, but unfortunately... Wuchao was too far away from here, except for the dots of firelight and the slowly rising stars.
There was smoke and nothing could be seen.
"Sir? It seems...it seems like there's really a fight!"
Diao Chan was a little surprised... At first she was quite suspicious of the so-called "murderous night with dark moon and high wind" mentioned by her husband, but now, whether it was the shouts of killing or the dots of fire, there was no doubt that Yi Xiaotian's words were corroborated.
Cai Zhaoji asked curiously.
"Sir... you just mentioned that Cao Cao led his army to attack Wuchao and burned Yuan Shao's food and grass. Then... what's next?"
Cai Zhaoji blinked her big eyes, looking forward to it. "How will Yuan Shao respond?"
"This is not easy!"
Lu Lingqi, who didn't see the fighting in the distance, looked uninterested. She slowly stepped back, raised her delicate hands, and answered with a smile.
"It must be to support Wuchao. Yuan Jun's camp is not far from Wuchao. It is at most forty miles away. If we send cavalry, we can arrive in half an hour... When the time comes, Cao Cao will be attacked from both inside and outside. Won't Cao Cao be trapped?
We are in danger!"
Speaking of this, Lu Lingqi blinked her eyes and spread her hands. "I see, the plan you gave me was too sinister. Instead, you stole the chicken but lost the rice, and ended up harming Cao Cao."
seem…
What Lu Lingqi said makes sense!
Diao Chan and Cai Zhaoji both nodded.
Cai Zhaoji repeatedly echoed.
"Yes...yes, if that's the case...even if Yuan Jun's food and grass can be burned clean, but...Cao Cao is also in danger! Besides, Yuan Jun's food and grass are so much, even if they are all burned, it will take two or three hours. It seems...
Yuan Jun’s reinforcements came in time!”
As soon as these words were spoken, the three peerless beauties looked at Yi Xiaotian with their pretty cheeks.
"Ha ha ha ha…"
Faced with their doubts, Yi Xiaotian laughed "haha". He first nodded towards Lu Lingqi. "Lingqi, you have made great progress. You can think of the timing of the rescue, the time of the rescue, and even the battlefield."
He was able to analyze all the situations in a clear and logical way, which really impressed Mr.
"snort…"
Hearing this, Lu Lingqi pouted. "I already know this, sir, I just don't know!"
Although her mouth was pouting, Lu Lingqi's heart was filled with joy...
In my memory, this was the first time that she was praised by her husband.
"Sir, please stop being so pretentious. We are still waiting to continue listening!" Cai Zhaoji urged...
Diao Chan also nodded slightly. It was obvious that they were extremely concerned about the development of the decisive battle in Guandu.
"Okay, then I'll continue."
Yi Xiaotian raised his hand slightly and continued to speak slowly.
"Lingqi can think of rushing to Wuchao's aid because she has a simple mind and no one can influence her thoughts. However, the situation with Yuan Shao is very different!"
"Yuan Shao is a man who is very scheming and decisive. He must be thinking that if Cao Cao dares to attack Wuchao, he must have brought the main force there. Now Guandu's protection is weak."
"If Cao Cao dares to burn his food and grass, he can also capture Guandu and cut off Cao Cao's retreat. Besides, if you think about it with your toes, you will know that all Cao Cao's elite soldiers have been transferred away at this time, and those who remain in Guandu will definitely be old, weak and remnant soldiers.
If we rush to the aid of Wuchao, we will be much more sure of attacking Guandu!"
Yi Xiaotian explained slowly.
Lu Lingqi nodded repeatedly as she listened, it seemed... Yuan Shao's idea was not bad either.
With this in mind, she lowered her head with a complicated expression and murmured, "It seems that Yuan Shao's idea is better than mine. Just like what he thought, once Guandu is lost, where can Cao Cao go!"
When she said this, Lu Lingqi was still a little frustrated.
But she saw Yi Xiaotian laughing, reaching out to pat her on the shoulder, and then hit her on the forehead.
"Lingqi... if Yuan Shao uses your method, the balance of victory and defeat in this battle will be tilted to his side! On the contrary, it was his idea that completely put Yuan Jun into a situation that is beyond redemption! Besides, this
Yuan Shao is a man who is naturally hostile to correct opinions."
