After an autumn rain, the scorching sun hanging in the sky is no longer as scorching as before.
The morning sun was rising, and the sunlight fell on the ground, reflecting golden rays on the water stains.
In the Yizhou military camp, soldiers are busy setting up fortifications.
Last night, Wang Can arranged for Zhou Cang to take a hundred soldiers to Cao Cao's camp to publicize the news that Cao Cao's food and grass had been robbed. After Cao Cao's soldiers knew about it, their morale must have been turbulent, and there was a shortage of food in Cao Cao's camp, so they would definitely come to Wang Can for a decisive battle, because
Cao Cao couldn't afford to delay, so he had to fight quickly. Once Cao Cao's supplies ran out, he had to withdraw his troops, so Cao Cao had to decide the winner with Wang Can as soon as possible.
Cao Cao wanted to fight, but Wang Can was not in a hurry.
The Art of War says: Therefore, being victorious in a hundred battles is not a good thing; subjugating an enemy's army without fighting is a good thing. Wang Can wanted to defeat Cao Cao without fighting, so buying time with Cao Cao was the best way.
Just imagine, Cao Cao's men have tens of thousands of mouths waiting for food, but there is no food and grass in Cao Cao's camp. The outcome can be imagined.
It would be very good if the army can be maintained.
At the Chinese army's tent, Wang Can was discussing countermeasures with Guo Jia, Jia Xu, Li Ru, and Wang Yue, and how to conquer Chang'an? In Wang Can's view, Cao Cao had lost three months of food and grass after being robbed.
He was directly kicked out of the game. Therefore, Wang Can only needed to build defenses to ensure the victory of the army.
Wang Can said loudly: "When Cao Cao leads his troops and leaves, only Yang Feng will be left in Chang'an City. This person is wavering and not loyal to the little emperor. You can test Yang Feng's tone." After a pause, Wang Can said
Can looked at Wang Yue and said, "Ziwu, I'll leave this matter to you."
"promise!"
Wang Yue straightened his body, clasped his fists and agreed.
Wang Can looked at Jia Xu again and said, "Wen He, you..."
As soon as the words were spoken, there was a rush of footsteps outside the tent. Dian Wei opened the curtain of the tent, walked in and clasped his fists, saying, "My lord, the scouts who investigated Cao Ying along the way are back and have important news to report."
Wang Can raised his eyebrows and said, "Bring him in!"
When Dian Wei heard this, he turned around to convey the order.
Not long after, a scout who looked slightly tired quickly walked into the big tent, knelt on the ground with one knee, clasped his fists and said: "Sir, we just found out the news. Cao Cao led the army to rise up and rush to the camp."
"Snapped!"
Wang Can slapped his thigh and said, "Okay, we're finally here."
After a pause, he asked again: "What is the specific situation?"
The scout reported back: "Cao Cao's army went out in full force. He not only used cavalry, but also a special weapon. The weapon was big and tall, more than one foot high and nearly two feet wide. It was very huge." This weapon was naturally huge.
A sword cart made by Cao Cao's soldiers. However, a sword cart of this size has been modified and is not the huge vehicle that was three or four feet wide like the original.
When Wang Can heard this, his heart skipped a beat. Cao Cao also had a secret weapon in love.
He leaned forward slightly and asked, "Describe it carefully, what kind of weapon is it?"
The scouts were only responsible for detecting news. They did not know the equipment used to defend the city, and they had never seen a sword or cart.
He thought for a while, then stretched out his hand to gesture and described: "The weapon is very much like a carriage, but compared with the carriage, the front of the weapon is equivalent to the back of the carriage, and it is also filled with steel knives.
A steel knife is inserted in front of the vehicle, and soldiers push it from behind. It takes more than ten soldiers to push the weapon, because it is big and heavy."
After hearing this, Guo Jia had a look of surprise on his face.
Jia Xu and Li Ru also nodded, obviously understanding what kind of weapon this was.
As for Wang Can, he still seemed to be sitting on a cloud, not knowing why.
Wang Can waved his hand and dismissed the scouts. He turned to Guo Jia and asked, "Looking at your appearance, you obviously know what kind of weapon it is. Fengxiao, please tell me."
Guo Jia clasped his fists and said: "My lord, the weapon Cao Cao asked the soldiers to push forward is similar to a sword cart, but it is not a sword cart, because the real sword cart is larger than what the soldiers described. However, because there are dozens of sword carts inserted directly in front of it.
The steel knife with the handle can be used to charge and kill after being pushed."
Wang Can nodded, but he didn't expect that Cao Cao had many tricks.
Not long after, the knife cart was actually produced.
He asked again: "How powerful is this thing?"
Guo Jia said: "The sword chariot is extremely powerful. My lord also learned the size and height of the sword chariot from the attendants. The one-foot-tall sword chariot is not afraid of war horses at all. When the war horses charge forward, they can only be stabbed. And
Even if the soldiers trapped in the camp are surrounded and killed by swords and carts, it is difficult to gain an advantage."
"His! His!"
After Wang Can heard this, he took a deep breath.
His grandma's three special units, the Wolf Fang Camp, the Breaking Army Camp, and the Trap Camp, were almost all destroyed after encountering the knife cart. Such a result is a waste. If he went to the battlefield, he would also let him
The soldiers pushed the sword carts to crush them out. They were in an invincible position and victorious in every battle.
Jia Xu followed Guo Jia's words and continued: "My lord, on the surface it seems that the sword cart is very powerful, but the sword cart is heavy and huge, but its shortcomings are obvious and it is very easy to deal with."
Wang Can was overjoyed when he heard this and asked hurriedly: "Wen He, tell me quickly, how to resist?"
Jia Xu said: "If my lord has seen the knife cart, he will be able to figure out the solution in a moment. Lord, imagine that the knife cart is more than one foot high and nearly two feet wide. If such a knife cart suddenly falls into a tunnel, what will happen?
What's the situation?" The corners of Jia Xu's lips raised slightly, revealing a sneer.
In one sentence, the method of cracking the knife car was pointed out.
The advantage of the sword cart is great. If it suddenly attacks, it will be almost invincible and difficult to resist.
Regardless of whether they are cavalry, infantry, heavy armored soldiers, or heavy cavalry, they will be poked when they encounter a knife cart with a steel knife. However, the target of the knife cart is too large and it is inconvenient to move. It only takes dozens of soldiers to dig out one line at a time.
The emergence of a ravine that is neither deep nor shallow is enough to destroy all the swords and carts and gain the right to win.
The method is simple but requires enough time to prepare.
After hearing this, Wang Can ordered: "Fengxiao, time is urgent. You go to Zhao Yun immediately and ask him to lead the soldiers to quickly dig several gullies outside the camp to stop Cao Cao's sword cart!"
"promise!"
After Guo Jia received the order, he immediately went out to carry out the order.
Wang Can watched Guo Jia leave and said: "Wenhe, digging trenches is only one way, and now that it's bright and clear, he will definitely be discovered. Maybe Cao Cao also has a corresponding way to deal with it, and there must be other ways to deal with the knife cart.
, do you have any countermeasures?"
Jia Xu smiled and said: "My lord, digging the trench is just to protect the camp. The sword cart is slow, heavy and inflexible. As long as my lord can control Cao Cao's sword cart, I am already invincible. There is no need for other methods."
After hearing this, Wang Can raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you asking Cao Cao to leave?"
Jia Xu said: "Don't my lord hope to win without a fight? Cao Cao took the initiative to withdraw his troops, which is exactly what my lord wants!"
Wang Can curled his lips. He wanted to win without a fight, but if Cao Cao led his troops to retreat, he would have the opportunity to chase Cao Cao, which would severely weaken Cao Cao. It would be a pity to sit back and watch Cao Cao leave!
What a great opportunity, don't miss it.
