Man Chong had been surrounded by hundreds of Qingqi, and fled in defeat.
Guan Yu snorted angrily, just now he thought that Man Chong was going to fight him desperately, but he just took the opportunity to cover up and plan to escape.
"General Guan, I'm going to chase the enemy!" A lieutenant asked for orders.
Guan Yu shook his head and said: "The most important thing in this battle is a quick victory. We can't be held back by Man Chong. I will go back to meet the main force of Cao's army later."
"The escape of Man Chong will inevitably reveal our information on land. You go and tell Mr. Zhuge about it."
Guan Yu turned his attention to the battlefield again.
After Man Chong escaped, Cao Jun's morale was immediately drained. Some people began to surrender, while others still stubbornly resisted.
The battle ended very quickly, in less than half an hour.
On the contrary, it took them nearly three hours to go back and forth. (one hour is two hours)
It was not until evening that Guan Yu returned to the camp.
Zhuge Liang asked, "How about the casualties?"
"The enemy died 370, [-] surrendered, and our side lost [-] and [-] people."
Guan Yu worriedly asked about Man Chong's escape, "Will Man Chong's escape affect Mr.'s plan?"
Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, "No, the plan has changed."
"Sun Quan's navy landed ahead of time. Cao Jun detected the movement and suddenly increased his speed an hour ago. Now it is less than fifteen miles away from us."
"We need to complete the front and back attack on Cao Jun in another place."
This means that the plan cannot keep up with the changes, but this is not a bad thing for Zhuge Liang.
Because Man Chong escaped, Cao Jun might not take the bait here.
Then this sudden incident will make Cao Jun unable to react in time!
……
Chapter 32 Change Plan
Cheng Yu's army was slow because the terrain on both sides of the river was uneven.
And there is no official way here at all.
Cheng Yu's hair was completely gray, but he didn't look like an old man.
He was a soldier all his life, and he had followed Cao Cao when he flattened the Yellow Turban.
Along with Cao Cao, he has experienced countless wars.
He is also very accurate in seeing people, and once asked Cao Cao to kill Liu Bei.
At the time of Jingzhou, Cao Cao had already shown distrust of him, and he also asked to surrender his military power.
But what surprised him was that it seemed that Cao Cao's attitude towards him changed drastically overnight, he no longer doubted him, and let him lead an army of [-].
At this time, Cao Cao hadn't said anything about the space, so he didn't know that Cao Cao decided to trust this veteran again after entering the space!
Cheng Yu was covered with animal skins, and was sitting in the carriage. The interior of the carriage was lighted with faint incense, and he kept his eyes on the map.
Cao Hong is Cao Cao's most trusted subordinate and also Cao Cao's younger brother. Cheng Yu left him in the carriage.
Cao Hong said, "What do you think Zhuge Kongming will do?"
Cheng Yu pointed to a point on the map and said, "If I were Zhuge Kongming, I would definitely lie in ambush here."
"This is the only way to pass, and the mountains are high and the land is low, and it is not far from the river. If we are entangled here, then we will be attacked!"
If Zhuge Liang is here, he will be surprised.
Because the place Cheng Yu pointed at was where they planned to ambush.
"If we take a detour from here, then their plan will fail!" Cao Hong said.
Cheng Yu lightly shook his head and said, "It can't be like this, the prime minister's mission is to persecute, Xun You's mission is to involve, and our mission is to kill the enemy!"
"If the coalition forces don't want to retreat to Jiangxia, then they will definitely come and attack us."
"So this battle is inevitable."
Cheng Yu carefully studied the map. The slower pace of the army could make the enemies in the dark rush, and they would have more time to prepare.
At this time, a person lifted the curtain of the car. This person was tall but not burly, with an ordinary appearance, but his eyes were as deep as a pool of water.
"Zihe, what's the matter?" Cao Hong asked.
The person who came was Cao Zihe, that is, Cao Chun, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry Commander.
He is Cao Cao's cousin, and he followed Cao Cao to fight in all directions at the age of 17. Cao Cao handed over the tiger and leopard rider to him, which shows his trust in him.
When Karasuma was conquered last year, he was granted the title of Marquis of Gaoling Ting, with three hundred households in Shiyi.
"The scouts have come to report that the navy seems to be approaching the shore."
Cheng Yu looked slightly startled, and asked, "Where did they dock?"
According to his speculation, the navy should not have landed so soon, and they should have waited for themselves to enter the valley before they would make any moves.
Cao Chun pointed to a place, "This is it!"
Cheng Yu frowned deeply, and the navy landed early, which ran counter to the plan he had in mind.
"The terrain of this place is not dangerous, it is impossible to ambush! What exactly is Sun Quan trying to do?"
……
over the wide river.
Hundreds of warships flowed down the river at a rapid speed.
The water army in the rear became densely packed dots again, and they also lost several warships again.
Sun Jian's tall body stood on the deck with his hands behind his back, his legs were deeply rooted in the hull of the boat like old trees, and he remained motionless despite the swaying of the hull.
"What's wrong, this is the fourth time we have encountered the Jingzhou navy, and they are always wearing us down slowly." Sun Jian asked with doubts in his heart.
Sun Quan stood beside him, half a head shorter, and also slender and thin.
He was a little surprised that Sun Jian would say such a thing.
"Father, what's wrong? They planned to wear down our will and force us back to Jiangxia."
Sun Jian shook his head. He didn't know what was wrong, but he always felt that something was wrong.
Zhou Yu also stood aside, with white fox fur fluttering on his body, and his appearance was majestic, not like a mortal.
After thinking carefully, he said, "It's normal for uncle to feel something is wrong, because the Jingzhou navy has no desire to attack."
"Although their purpose is to force us back to Jiangxia, this is only secondary. If they can cause us heavy losses, I believe they will be very happy."
"I have shown weakness several times, but the Jingzhou navy has no intention of taking advantage of the victory and pursuing it."
Sun Jian's gaze fixed, he knew why he felt something was wrong.
"The Jingzhou navy is too steady. We want to force them to attack, but he seems to be waiting for us to do something."
Sun Jian thought about it carefully, and suddenly thought: "Cao Cao may have guessed that our army is divided into two groups?"
After saying this, he himself was very surprised.
Sun Quan said with a smile: "How is it possible? We only have [-] troops. Cao Cao would never have thought that we would split into two groups!"
As the river wind blows past, Zhou Yu saw the Jingzhou navy gradually disappearing and said, "My lord, uncle is probably right. The Jingzhou navy is also giving us a chance."
"A few times they stayed away from us, seeming to be recuperating, but they were actually giving us time to dock."
Sun Jian very much agreed with Zhou Yu's views, not only because the Jingzhou navy retreated.
The several attacks of the Jingzhou navy were small-scale attacks, but after that they would fall behind by a large margin and completely disappear from their sight.
The distance of twenty miles from them is completely unnecessary, and it is too far. What happens, the Jingzhou navy will not be able to keep up.
"It seems that Cao Cao has already expected it. If it goes according to the original plan, I'm afraid it will fall into Cao Cao's trap."
The three returned to the cabin, opened the map and started researching.
Zhou Yu was the first to see the flaws in Zhuge Liang's previous plan.
"This valley is very small. If Cao Jun climbs the two nearby mountains, they can rely on the mountains to resist our attack."
"In this way, they can wait for the rescue of the Jingzhou Navy."
Sun Quan and Sun Jian had serious expressions on their faces. This was a mistake.
If it was a sudden attack, Cao Jun might not be able to discover this terrain.
But taking into account their long-awaited expectations, the counselors in Cao's army may have already made preparations.
"They are confident that they can eat us, so they give us a gap of hours!"
Sun Quan said unwillingly, "What does Gong Jin think? Are we going to give up the pincer attack and retreat to Jiangxia?"
Zhou Yu shook his head. They had lost if they retreated to Jiangxia. Jiangxia County fell into the hands of Cao Jun, and then the six counties in Jiangdong.
He was silent for almost a quarter of an hour.
"If you want to swallow [-] with [-], a frontal encounter will definitely not work!"
"There are very few places where we can win more with less, and many of them are far away from rivers and rivers. Those places are too far away!"
This battle itself is very difficult for them!
And if Cao Cao had already guessed their movements and plans, then it would be as difficult for them to win.
"How can this be good?"
Sun Quan could only run around in a hurry. Although he was full of poems and books, he did not know how far behind Zhou Yu and Sun Jian when it came to planning.
Another quarter of an hour passed.
Zhou Yu looked up, with a plan in mind.
He said: "To defeat Cao Jun, we must separate them."
"Zhuge Liang's plan is to take advantage of our small number of people, and we can secretly cover up Chencang, throw bricks to attract jade, and divide Cao's [-] troops."
Darkness! ?
Throw a brick to attract jade! ?
"This plan depends on whether Zhuge Liang can understand what I mean. This is the only way for us to win!"
"Now, we dock!"
……
Chapter 33 Darkness and Chencang
Zhou Yu temporarily changed the plan.
This is not within the scope of Zhuge Liang's thinking, nor is it within the scope of Cheng Yu's planning.
This can be said to be a real surprise.
Even they themselves don't know, a temporary change of plan!
The fleet quickly landed, and tens of thousands of people disembarked from the warships. It was already approaching night.
"Hurry up!" shouted a general.
Zhou Yu stepped off the boat, but Sun Quan remained on board.
"My lord, you can go back to Jiangxia with the boat, and wait for our good news in Jiangxia."
That's right, Zhou Yu didn't intend to take Sun Quan with him.
There are many reasons, the danger of this battle is too great, and we must do our best.
If Sun Quan is here, they will definitely allocate part of their troops to protect Sun Quan, which is very detrimental to his tactics!
And since Sun Jian is here, Sun Quan is completely useless.
Although Sun Quan is a wise master, he is very young in terms of bravery and scheming, far inferior to Sun Jian.
