The two armies set up their positions, and the battle was about to begin.
However, after Wang Can and Cao Cao talked, they shook hands and made peace, and the war clouds surrounding both sides immediately dissipated.
Wang Can told Cao Cao to treat Xi Zhicai's men and then return to the military formation. Cao Cao achieved his goal and turned back. The two of them rode on their horses, clasped their fists to greet each other, and then led the troops to retreat and return to their respective camps.
Liu Xie's plan was to drive the tiger and swallow the wolf. According to the initial plan, Cao Cao and Wang Can should attack each other and fight to the death. Only then would Ma Teng and Yang Feng have the opportunity to send troops to clean up the mess. Now that the tiger and wolf are united, instead
Ma Teng must be dealt with first, which is shocking.
No matter what, Liu Xie was just one move behind.
In fact, Cao Cao's initial plan was to have Wang Can defeat Ma Teng, and then use Wang Can to defeat Yang Feng, allowing Liu Xie to escape Chang'an and seek help from him.
With Liu Xie's change, Cao Cao also changed his strategy.
He first pretended to accept Liu Xie's order, and then arrived in Chang'an, joined forces with Wang Can, and prepared to attack Ma Teng. With such a method, it must be said that Cao Cao's method was brilliant, and all Liu Xie's plans fell through. Cao Cao
After leading the troops back to the camp, Xi Zhicai, Xia Houyuan, Le Jin and other generals all came to the big tent.
Xu Chu stood like a hill in the tent, with a depressed look on his face.
He was gearing up, ready to swing his sword into battle to kill the enemy, but Cao Cao lightly said that he should withdraw his troops and return to the camp, which made Xu Chu feel like he was punched in the air. He was very uncomfortable, and he was holding back a lot of anger, but he had nowhere to vent it.
Cao Cao glanced across the crowd and said, "If you have any questions in your mind, please tell me."
Xia Houyuan stood up, clasped his fists and said, "Lord, why are we withdrawing our troops?"
Since Cao Cao and Wang Can were sitting in the middle of the battlefield talking without speaking loudly, Xia Houyuan and others had no idea what Cao Cao and Wang Can said. Naturally, they did not understand why Cao Cao suddenly withdrew his troops. They led troops to Chang'an just to attack Wang Can.
, but after the two armies met, Cao Cao immediately withdrew his troops, leaving all the generals confused.
Cao Cao looked at the confused expressions of his generals and explained: "I have reached an agreement with Wang Can to attack Ma Teng first!"
One word can cause thousands of waves.
The generals looked at each other with doubts in their eyes.
Only Xi Zhi smiled and said: "My lord is very resourceful and I admire him even though he is humble. Liu Xie wanted my lord to fight Wang Can to the death, and then let Ma Teng and Yang Feng end it. However, my lord died first with Wang Can."
It is the best strategy to lose the horse and fight again, and Liu Xie will definitely regret it after knowing the situation."
After Xi Zhicai explained, the generals understood and praised Cao Cao for his wisdom.
Cao Cao said: "Although the strategy is good, attacking Wang Can is the most critical. Today I brought the army against Wang Can to let you see the situation of Wang Can's army, especially Wang Can's broken army camp. The combat effectiveness is very strong, and Wang Can
Can also brought Zhao Yun, a fierce general, who is very powerful. Not only that, he also has two fierce generals beside him, both of whom are domineering and fierce generals. After defeating Ma Teng, he will send troops to defeat Wang Can."
Xu Chu nodded and said: "I will definitely live up to my lord's high expectations and defeat the guards around Wang Can."
Obviously, Xu Chu has set his sights on Dian Wei.
Xiahou Dun also stood up, clasped his fists and said: "My lord, I heard that Wang Can's general with a sword is named Huang Zhong. Today I looked carefully and found that Huang Zhong is in the military formation. After defeating Ma Teng,
The general will go meet Huang Zhong for a while, capture him, and let the lord deal with him!"
One by one, the generals asked for battle.
Cao Cao was very happy when he saw everyone asking for battle. He paused and asked in a deep voice: "Zhicai, Wang Can's broken barracks is extremely powerful and difficult to defeat. Are you ready?"
Xi Zhicai smiled and said: "Don't worry, my lord, my humble duties have been arranged."
Cao Cao nodded and felt relieved.
…
Yizhou Army, military camp.
After Wang Can returned with his troops, all the generals did not understand the reason. After Wang Can explained the matter clearly, they understood and agreed with Wang Can's approach. Because he did not deal with Ma Teng, when Wang Can and Cao Cao fought
, there is danger. In fact, if Yang Feng also leads troops outside, he will definitely attack Yang Feng. However, Yang Feng is stationed in the city. Only after defeating Cao Cao can Yang Feng be eliminated and take control of the government.
Wang Can agreed to Cao Cao, but did not relax his vigilance.
From Cao Cao's standpoint, Cao Cao would think about how to defeat him. In other words, Wang Can would also think about how to defeat Cao Cao after defeating Ma Teng. So Wang Can summoned Jia Xu and others to discuss how to deal with Cao Cao.
In the camp, Wang Can said: "Our army has reached an agreement with Cao Cao, and we will definitely defeat Ma Teng. However, how to defeat Cao Cao is the most critical. At present, we have broken military camp, trapped camp, Wolf Fang camp, and several military units.
Together, there is a great possibility of severely injuring Cao Cao. However, Cao Cao knows the power of breaking the military camp, so he must be on guard and it will be difficult for him to attack Cao Cao."
After a pause, Wang Can continued: "Cao Cao has developed rapidly in the past two years. Although there is a hero building in Yanzhou to spy on information, there is not much useful information, so you must consider it carefully and not relax."
Guo Jia cupped his hands and said: "Since we don't know Cao Cao's specific situation at the moment, we can only follow the steps and deal with the enemy according to the usual situation. Only after we are familiar with Cao Cao's situation can we respond."
Wang Can nodded and said: "I'm just reminding you that the matter of dealing with Cao Cao this time will be decided by the three of you through discussion. You must reduce losses and expand the victory."
"promise!"
The three of them replied and agreed.
…
Cao Cao and Wang Can were stationed not far from Chang'an, and news that the two were avoiding fighting soon spread to the palace. After Liu Xie got the news, he was furious and immediately called for Xu Huang.
In the main hall, Liu Xie asked loudly: "Xu Huang, Cao Cao has promised to attack Wang Can, why didn't he send troops?"
He yelled loudly and was extremely angry, and Xu Huang became Liu Xie's punching bag.
The corners of Xu Huang's mouth twitched slightly, and he sneered in his heart.
When he needs to go out to do things, he says "Xu Qing" on the left and "General Xu" on the other, which is very warm. Now that problems have arisen, Liu Xie's own shortcomings have been exposed. In fact, Xu Huang is Yang Feng's subordinate
Generals were not under Liu Xie's jurisdiction. Although Liu Xie was the emperor, he was unable to reach out to Yang Fengjun, and even Xu Huang could ignore Liu Xie.
Xu Huang shook his sleeves and said in a neither humble nor condescending manner: "Your Majesty, the general is only responsible for delivering the decree and does not care about other matters. At that time, Cao Cao accepted the imperial decree and agreed to send troops to attack Wang Can. Now that the two are not fighting, the general does not know what happened.
The reason. If your Majesty wants to find out the situation, you can send Mr. Fu and Mr. Dong to find out the news."
After saying that, Xu Huang clasped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, I have important matters to attend to, please take my leave!"
Liu Xie didn't care about Xu Huang's face, but Xu Huang slapped him back and turned around to leave.
Xu Huang suddenly left, leaving Liu Xie stunned. Was this still Xu Huang, who was loyal and dedicated to his work? He suddenly felt that he did not understand Xu Huang, and realized that he had not seen Xu Huang clearly.
Suddenly, Liu Xie shuddered.
He realized that he had made a mistake. Now he was just a phoenix in trouble, worse than a chicken. How could he have the right to question Xu Huang? Thinking that he had angered Xu Huang and lost a big arm, Liu Xie was extremely upset. He could
There were really too few generals who believed in him. Xu Huang's departure made Liu Xie feel cold in his heart.
At this moment, Liu Xie was confused about the future.
What should he do next?
