Call of the Deer

Chapter 539

In Ye City, Cao Cao and a group of civil and military officials sat in the city lord's mansion of Yecheng, and began to discuss the strategy of retreating the enemy. The civil and military quarreled and the noise was abnormal, which made Cao Cao's dark face even darker.

"Cough, cough, dear friends, do you have a plan to retreat from the enemy?"

Cao Cao looked around, looked at his most trusted ministers Xi Zhicai, Cheng Yu, Xun Yu, Xun You, and Sima Zhongda, who was at odds with each other, coughed lightly, and asked.

Everyone bowed their heads in shame when they heard the words. This time the Overlord Xiang Yu came to attack with great force, the morale was like a rainbow, and Wei Jun lost three new generals. Can you imagine the blow to morale?

But in the field, there were three civil servants sitting upright, as if they had nothing to do with themselves, but they looked at Sima Yi faintly, as if they were "eyes expressing love".

"Cough Zhongda, can you think of a way to retreat from the enemy?"

Cao Cao cast a sidelong glance at Sima Yi, coughed lightly, and asked.

"King Wei, I have two strategies. As long as they are used together, the Chu army will retreat in a short time, and the siege of Yecheng can be easily resolved!"

Sima Yi stood up, bowed, and then spoke indifferently, but the trembling of his words showed that his heart was not as calm as his face.

"Oh, what good strategy does Zhongda have? Tell me quickly, as long as you can retreat from the Chu army, you will be the greatest hero in this battle!"

Because the Chu army led by Xiang Yu all the way to Yecheng, and the three tiger generals were swallowed up by the Chu army, Cao Cao was afraid. He was sitting on pins and needles. , grasping Sima Yi's hand, sincerely.

"Hehe, my lord, since the debut of Overlord Xiang Yu, he has been invincible and invincible wherever he went. The barbarians he killed were so frightened that they dared not cross the Weihe River and go down to herd horses. With his own prestige, he easily climbed to the top of the Overlord. The imperial throne, but the Qiongzhou is not a piece of iron, the inside seems to be stable, but it is only the surface!"

Sima Yi first talked about Xiang Yu's unparalleled achievements, which made all the generals stunned for a while, not knowing what was going on, and secretly guessing what kind of medicine was sold in Sima Yi's gourd.

"Oh, Zhong Da said so, could it be that he wants to."

On the other hand, Cao Cao and other cadres of civil servants all had their eyes brightened, with joy shining in their eyes.

"Hehe, my lord knows me, that's exactly the case. My lord has a lot of talents under his command. With Chen Pingzhi's three-inch tongue, he can definitely separate Xiang Yu from Yu Wenyong and Gao Changgong. Once he becomes self-reliant, how can Xiang Yu attack Yecheng with peace of mind? ?”

Sima Yi was confident, as if everything was within his expectations, and looked at Cao Cao calmly.

"Well, this statement is reasonable, but how can Zhong Da dare to be sure that Yu Wenyong and Gao Changgong's generation dared to openly rebel. Could it be that they are not afraid of Xiang Yuhu's power?"

Cao Cao was naturally not a fool, he was swayed by his words, and immediately thought of the key point of this plan, and asked.

"My lord, Xiang Yu thinks highly of his second brother, Ran Min, who hates Hu people very much, but Yu Wenyong is of Hu people's blood, and his mother, Fang Ting's family, is a Hu man from the north, so the two are in conflict. It is not allowed; just because Xiang Yu is there, they can be suppressed, but because Xiang Yu thinks highly of Ran Min, Yu Wenyong and Gao Changgong can only hug each other to keep warm, as long as Yu Wenyong is moved, wouldn't Gao Changgong be able to catch him?"

"Oh, there is such a thing? In this way, this plan is feasible. As for the lobbyists, they will be handed over to Zhang Yi and Chen Ping. From this two people, the possibility of success is relatively high."

Cao Cao is a hero, he will be decisive when he decides, and he will never hesitate. Moreover, this matter concerns Yecheng and even the whole of Xizhou. He can only succeed, not fail, so he will not give up even if there is a glimmer of hope.

"Then, Zhongda, what about the second strategy you mentioned? So what? Gu is quite curious!"

Cao Cao just heard Sima Yi say that there are two strategies, but now he only talks about one, so he inevitably became curious about the other strategy.

"Although Overlord Xiang Yu led the army to attack, the momentum is like a rainbow, but it can't change the fact that the soldiers are running around and tired, so I predict that the defense in the Chu army camp will be lax tonight, and our army can go out of the city to attack at night."

Sima Yi stroked his long beard lightly, as if he had a plan in mind, he stared at Cao Cao without squinting.

"Absurd, Overlord Xiang Yu is the god of war in this world, how could he be so careless, Sima Zhongda, what is your intention to confuse the lord with these words?"

Cheng Yu was furious when he heard the words, stood up, and angrily reprimanded Sima Yi for having ulterior motives and sharp words.

"Hehe, don't be impatient for Zhong De to be safe, there are many of them, let Yi listen to them one by one!"

Sima Yi was scolded angrily by Cheng Yu, his eyes flashed sharply, and then he chuckled lightly to cover up his embarrassment and anger.

"As far as I know, Overlord Xiang Yu is extremely conceited. He killed three generals in our battalion today. The morale of the Chu army is high. He must think that the morale of our army has been taken away by him. He dare not go out of the city to attack. Naturally, he will not strengthen his guard. In addition, the Chu army has been busy all the way, and they also need to rest and recuperate to face the siege battle in the future!"

"Oh, in case Xiang Yu is on guard, so what?"

Although Cheng Yu felt that what Sima Yi said was reasonable, he would not bow his head, and he was not afraid of anything, just in case.

"So, just to be on the safe side, our army can send out another army and hide in the dark. If the night attack fails, we can also lead the army to respond. In this way, nothing will go wrong!"

Sima Yi glanced contemptuously at Cheng Yu, who was chattering endlessly, and then said his own plan to deal with the aftermath.

Cao Cao fell into deep thought when he heard the words, and he also felt that what Sima Yi said was true.

The Chu army has come, and once the Chu army has a firm foothold, it will be even more difficult to repel it. Therefore, when the Chu army's foothold is not stable, we must use the momentum of thunder to dampen its spirit and boost our own. morale.

"Zhongda, can Gu trust you?"

Suddenly Cao Cao stared at Sima Yi, said such a sentence, and looked at his expression very seriously, everyone felt their heads explode.

"My lord, Yi requests that this battle be led by the minister himself, and go out of the city to attack at night!"

Not to be outdone, Sima Yi knelt down to challenge, the two stared at each other, the atmosphere in the arena became extremely solemn, and no one dared to speak.

"Hahaha, Zhongda is overwhelmed. Gu has always employed people without suspicion. Besides, as a general, how can you charge forward? This battle only needs to be dispatched in the middle. As for the general who commanded the night attack, Just hand it over to Xiahou Yuanrang and Cao Zilian, and Xiahou Miaocai and Cao Zihe will lead the army to guide them."

Suddenly, Cao Cao laughed and helped Sima Yi who was kneeling on one knee to his feet, as if nothing happened, and he was very affectionate, but his words were unquestionable.

Anyone who doesn't know Cao Cao will probably be so moved that he will work for him in a daze.

And those who are interested will find that the people who went out of the city to attack at night are all members of Cao Cao's own clan, and they are generals who can be trusted [-]%.

Outside the city of Ye, everything was quiet, and the tents of the Central Army of Chu Army were brightly lit, and there was an endless stream of patrolling soldiers.

In the camp, Xiang Yu is sitting at the main seat, and at the lower left is his younger brother Fan Zeng, and sitting next to Xiang Yu is Yu Ji, who is dressed in emerald green palace attire, looking at Xiang Yu affectionately.

"Your Majesty, everything in the camp can be properly arranged, and we must send people to closely monitor the movements of the Wei army, lest the Wei army launch a night attack."

Fan Zeng looked at the complacent Xiang Yu, and asked about the layout of the camp.

"Hehe, Father Ya is worrying too much. In today's battle, our army killed three generals of the Wei army. The morale of the Wei army has already been taken away by me. It is certain that the Wei army will not dare to go out of the city to attack at night."

Xiang Yu chuckled, Yafu was still the Yafu in Ya's memory, he was careful in handling things, and thought of him in many places, and he felt warm in his heart, and then he patted his chest to reassure him.

"In this way, the minister can rest assured. Thinking back to the past, Yu'er, you have fallen into Liu Bang and Chen Ping's plan to divorce. Yafu can't protect you. He can only break through from Liu Bang's suspicious place and use a plan that will hurt both sides. The rabbit is dead, the lackeys are cooking, the birds are gone, and the good bow is hidden; Yafu will definitely do his best today to help you ascend to the position of Ninth Five-Year."

Speaking of this, Fan Zeng's voice was sonorous and powerful, and he looked at Xiang Yu with a firm expression.

"Hahaha, Yu'er believes that Yafu has this ability, and will never be suspicious of Yafu from now on."

"Yafu, in your opinion, how is the morale of our Chu army? Will we be able to enter Yecheng tomorrow?"

Facing Fan Zeng, Xiang Yu lost some of his old arrogance, but his self-confidence and superciliousness seemed to remain the same.

"Hehe, Your Majesty, with the bravery of our Chu army, it is indeed easy to take down Yecheng."

"However, in order to avoid unnecessary casualties, it is better not to push too hard; after all, the ministers look at the Wei army, the military discipline is strict, and they are full of murderous spirits. I'm afraid I won't be able to get it in a short time."

Fan Zeng knew Xiang Yu well, so he looked at Xiang Yu kindly, first complimented him, and then told the situation in the army one by one.

"Oh, so how should I deal with it? After all, Concubine Yu is pregnant, and I'm afraid it will take too long, so I will..."

Hearing Yafu's analysis, Xiang Yu's face became ponderous, and he looked at Yu Ji next to him, and asked hesitantly.

"Your Majesty."

"This minister thought that the king could send his cronies to send Empress Yuji back to Qiongzhou first."

Hearing Xiang Yu's words, Fan Zeng was in trouble, military and state affairs, how could he take into account these things, besides, the fetus in Yu Ji's womb was not Xiang Yu's, but he must not say such words, otherwise he might hate Xiang Yu.

"No, other people are escorting Concubine Yu, so don't worry!"

Xiang Yu looked at Yu Ji who was relying on him, shook his head, and vetoed Fan Zeng's suggestion, separated in the past, separated from Yin and Yang, and he could no longer bear this pain.

"If that's the case, let's make a quick decision. Breaking through Yecheng with His Majesty's bravery will only cost you a little extra effort!"

The hero is short of breath, and the love of his sons and daughters is long. Since ancient times, no one cares about the hero's sadness, and he doesn't talk much;

What's more, relying on Yu Ji's pregnancy, she resolutely walked from Dongzhou to Qiongzhou. The bumpy journey along the way is hard for outsiders to imagine. With this little friendship, he is not qualified to say more.

To this day, Fan Zeng still believes that Xiang Yu's bravery is unparalleled in the world. Even among the generals under the Eastern Emperor, none of them can wrestle with Xiang Yu alone.

"Okay, just as Yafu said, tomorrow someone will personally lead the army to attack the city!"

Seeing the reunification of Yafu, Xiang Yu immediately made up his mind and planned to personally lead the army to attack the city tomorrow.

"Kill it."

"What's going on? Could it be that the Wei army was unable to attack at night? They are really daring!"

At this moment, a series of sounds of chaos and fighting came from outside the camp, and Xiang Yu's face immediately became ugly. He mentioned the Black Dragon Fighting Heaven Halberd, and he was about to go outside the camp to kill.

"Be careful, king!"

Yu Ji shouted worriedly.

"Haha, with Concubine Yu waiting here, the Wei army is nothing to be afraid of. The enemy army can be crushed in the time of a cup of tea!"

Xiang Yu laughed loudly, and walked out proudly, leaving only a solid back.

"Oh, Yu'er still hasn't changed."

Fan Zengcheng sighed, but his expression was sweating profusely, seeming rejoiced, helpless, worried, and hated for not fighting.
"Mr. Fan, who do you think will win in the end, the king or the husband Donghuang?"

Yu Ji looked at Fan Zeng who was sitting on the side, and asked.

"Oh, evil fate, the Eastern Emperor can be called the master of a generation, with great talents and great strategy, with a collection of stars under his command, heroes from all walks of life are like crucian carp crossing the river, counselors are like rain, springing up like bamboo shoots after rain, it is indeed Yuer The enemy, the two of them, will have a battle sooner or later, as for the outcome, I am afraid that only this damned thief will know."

After Fan Zeng said such an ambiguous sentence, he closed his eyes and fell into a doze.

When Yu Ji heard this, she looked down at her stomach, and her face was already a little pale.

On the other side, Xiang Yu personally led the army to stop the attack, and finally stopped the chaos. After fighting with the Wei army for a while, the Wei army retreated. During the pursuit, because of the support of the reinforcements, it did not gain any benefits;
This battle, still because of Xiang Yu's own carelessness, was narrowly won by Wei Jun. Xiang Yu's face was very ugly, and he vowed to attack the city tomorrow to make Wei Jun look good. (To be continued.)
