Crossing the Battle of the Three Kingdoms

Just as Chen Dao ordered the army to suspend, Zhuge Liang came slowly from a distance, waving a feather fan. "General Chen, Liang is here to welcome you into the city by the order of my lord."

Seeing Zhuge Liang appearing as if out of thin air, Chen Dao hurriedly got off his horse and bowed down. "I have never seen a military division."

"Get up." Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "Follow up, we'll talk when we go back to the city."

Seeing Zhuge Liang walking freely in front of him, Chen Dao already vaguely guessed something in his heart, it must have come from his hands.

With respect in his heart, Chen Dao hurriedly led his troops and followed behind him. In less than an hour, all [-] troops entered the city.

With Chen Dao's [-] fresh troops joining, Liu Bei's heart was even more relaxed, and he had the idea of ​​fishing in troubled waters.

After some questioning, Liu Bei learned from Chen Dao that Wei Yan had an army of [-] troops, and the vanguard was only one day away from Nanyang.

Chapter 771 Eight Diagrams Formation

A day later, Liao Hua led an army of [-] to arrive. After Xia Houyuan made inquiries, he also chose to set up camp and wait for the army to arrive.

Liu Bei in the city, knowing that the two parties did not move, couldn't help but feel a little nervous. He wanted to provoke Mars, but Zhuge Liang persuaded him, so he had to give up.

In one side of the city and outside the two sides of the city, nearly [-] troops, because of Zhuge Liang, ushered in a short period of peace.

A few days later, Cao Cao arrived and learned about the strangeness from Xia Houyuan. Out of curiosity, he immediately went to observe it himself, but after looking for a long time, he didn't find anything wrong.

In order to prove what Xia Houyuan said, Cao Cao sent more than a dozen people to enter, but he didn't expect that as soon as they entered the boulder, they disappeared immediately.

After waiting for ten minutes, seeing no one came out, Cao Cao frowned and asked, "Everyone, do you see anything?"

Li Ru said at the side: "Prime Minister, this must be a formation, as long as you find the trick, you should be able to crack it."

A mere formation can trap people without the need for soldiers and horses to preside over it. It seems that the person who set up the formation is a great talent, and it should be the deployment of Zhuge Liang, who was newly acquired by Liu Bei.

Cao Cao narrowed his eyes and said, "Since it's a formation, Wen You can see a thing or two."

Li Ru shook his head slightly and replied: "This formation is rare, and it's the first time Ru has seen it. I haven't seen anything yet, but I should be able to see something by sending more waves of soldiers and horses in."

It is a way to use people to explore the formation. After all, this battle must be resolved quickly, otherwise, when the large troops from Hanzhong arrive, I am afraid that there will be more troubles.

Cao Cao adopted Li Ruzhi's words, first invested a hundred people, then five hundred, until two thousand, but still never returned, so he couldn't help but stop sending troops.

Two to 3000 people are already a lot in this narrow place. It is impossible for there to be no movement, at least they can see a little bit.

It seems that this formation is really weird, and it would be futile to send troops again. Cao Cao narrowed his eyes slightly, thought for a while, and led the army back to the camp helplessly.

There was nothing concealed about what Cao Cao said, so the scouts sent by Liao Hua also saw clearly and forwarded the news back.

It was so weird that Liao Hua didn't dare to take any action. He ordered the soldiers to prepare for defense and directly sent the news back to the north.

After the Battle of Guandu, Li Huiyi started to be a hands-off shopkeeper, only sitting in the back to manage and direct. Jingzhou has changed. He has ordered Xu Shu and Li Shu to act at the right time, and asked him to send pigeons to send letters immediately when encountering unresolved matters. .

On this day, Li Huiyi accompanied his son, teaching them how to deal with things like a monk reciting scriptures, while the two wives were doing the chores at the side, everything looked very modern.

"Da da da..." Li Quan, who has reached middle age, did not lose any of his behavior in the past, but became more stable. At this time, he walked quickly, stopped not far away, and did not step forward to disturb him.

"Taking people as a guide can tell gains and losses, using a mirror as a guide can dress your clothes well, review the past to know the present, and review yourself to know people, the meaning of this sentence..."

Li Huiyi didn't notice Li Quan's arrival at this time and glanced at it while talking, seeing Li Quan standing not far away, stopped what he was saying, and stepped forward to ask some questions.

"What's the matter, but what happened in Jingzhou?"

Li Quan replied: "General, I don't know what has been laid outside Nanyang City. No one can approach the city."

"Huh?" Li Huiyi asked, "Be more specific."

As Li Quan uttered the news from Liao Hua word by word, Li Huiyi already understood what was going on, and a trace of doubt appeared on his face.

What does Zhuge Liang mean by this, how did he arrange the eight trigrams formation, and what changes happened?

and many more!

Could it be that something happened to their mother and son?

Impossible, where is Pang Tong, with Liu Bei's wisdom, he should not find them, and if there is a real situation, he should be notified, so what's going on.

Forget it, first order them to take Nanyang as soon as possible, so as not to have long nights and dreams, Li Huiyi thought about it in his heart, and quickly led Li Quan to the study to write out the method of breaking the eight trigrams formation.

He also urged Wei Yan in the letter to break the city as soon as possible, and also issued three orders, telling Wei Yan to keep Mrs. Cai, mother and child safe no matter what the situation was.

Because for Mrs. Cai, Li Huiyi has always had a debt in his heart. Although it was Mrs. Cai who forced her hard at the beginning, in that situation, Li Huiyi thought that if it was him, he would choose the same. After all, no father would look at his daughter. Following a precarious person, living a life of fear.

As the news of Li Huiyi came back, Wei Yan's army had also arrived, and the two sides' tens of thousands of troops camped in such a short distance, maintaining a microsecond relationship.

If Cao Cao did not take the lead in attacking his own side, Wei Yan would not take the initiative to attack, because Li Huiyi had explained before the battle that he would try not to provoke a war with Cao Cao.

The most important thing at present is to win Nanyang and capture and kill Liu Bei, then Jingzhou will be dominated.

As soon as Wei Yan arrived, after reading Li Huiyi's letter, he immediately summoned troops and prepared to observe the formation first.

As soon as Wei Yan moved, Cao Cao couldn't bear the loneliness, so he led his army to observe from a short distance, wanting to see what clever moves Wei Yan had.

Looking at the dazzling pile of stones, Wei Yan quickly calculated in his mind, and finally sent more than ten personal guards, and let them enter the formation after explaining.

After waiting for about an hour, seeing no one came out, Wei Yan frowned, pulled his horse back to the camp without saying a word.

Seeing that Wei Yan had nothing to do with this formation, Cao Cao felt at ease. As long as Jingzhou did not fall into Li Huiyi's hands, Cao Cao would be willing to win or lose, or return without success.

Wei Yan returned to the camp, and suddenly sent a puzzling order, that is, the whole army should rest and gather at nightfall, without saying what to do.

Although Wei Yan is young, his prestige in this army is still quite high, because the generals under his command are either Zhang Lu's old army or Liu Zhang's old army, and most of them are surrendered generals.

As for those who were transferred, they were about the same age as him, so there would be no situation of relying on the old to sell the old and not obeying orders.

In the city, Liu Bei saw the arrival of the armies from both sides, and both sent soldiers and horses to explore the formation, but they were all helpless, and finally he no longer had any scruples in his heart.

In Liu's study room, Liu Bei had a rare relaxed expression, and asked Chen Dao who was standing: "Is there any progress in what I asked you to do?"

Chen Dao respectfully replied: "My lord, there is a clue, but there is no actual progress."

"Yes." Liu Bei nodded slightly, thought for a while and said, "In this way, half of the city defense soldiers will be transferred to join the search team, and the remaining forces in the city must be cleared as soon as possible, otherwise there may be changes."

"Yes." Chen Dao clasped his fists to accept the order, with hesitation on his face, and finally reminded: "My lord, draw out the city defense forces. If the enemy troops attack the city, wouldn't it be..."

Chapter 772 Instructions

"Hahaha." Liu Bei laughed and said: "Uncle Zhi, don't worry, Wei Yan and Cao Cao have already explored the formation. If they can break through, they will have already attacked the city, and they will not move?"

What Liu Bei said, Chen Dao naturally knew, but he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell, so he could only accept his orders and leave.

In an unremarkable private house in the north of the city, Pang Tong and Cai Mao were discussing urgently. Since the plan to assassinate Sun Ce was implemented, they knew that there would be risks, but they did not expect it to be like this.
