    After Ling Cao left, Sun Quan clasped his hands behind his back and frowned. He was only in his weak years this year, but he shouldered the heavy responsibility of guarding the rear for his eldest brother Sun Ce.

    If it were another person, I'm afraid he would have panicked and bumped around like a headless fly.  But Sun Quan didn't. Although he was filled with sorrow, he didn't feel any panic or impatience.

    He is familiar with military books and carefully considers the stakes. Soldiers are important, and every move affects the whole body. Now that Zhang Liao and Gaoshun have captured seven counties, the crisis in Jingzhou is just around the corner.

    Sun Quan closed his eyes slightly and murmured in a low voice.

    "Although Zhang Liao and Gao Shun have strong troops, they are not large in number. It is obviously impossible to really take action. But if they are allowed to stay in Fancheng area, they will be a time bomb that will detonate who knows when.  .¡±

    "However, if we send troops to exterminate them, if something unexpected happens again, Jingzhou's troops will be dispersed, and we may suffer losses in the rear."

    Time passed bit by bit, and Sun Quan still couldn't think of a complete strategy. Helpless, he finally decided to let Ling Cao lead the army to deal with Zhang Liao and Gao Shun.

    Sun Quan thought to himself that Ling Cao was already a veteran general who had experienced hundreds of battles. Even if he could not annihilate Zhang Liao and Gao Shun, he could still expel them from the country.

    Thinking of this, Sun Quan asked people to bring Ling Cao back. At the same time, he sent an order to Ling Tong and Dong Xi to come to see him.

    The three people who received the order from Sun Quan immediately put down what they were doing and hurried to see Sun Quan.

    Looking at the three generals in front of him, Sun Quan said: "Three generals, I have decided to send troops to attack Zhang Liao and Gao Shun. However, the three generals must remember that if nothing can be done, they will immediately withdraw to Xiangyang and not fight with them."

    However, the three of them seemed a little careless about Sun Quan's instructions, especially Ling Cao, who smiled and said, "Don't worry, Second Young Master, the general will be able to remove Zhang Liao's Gao Shun's head and present it to Second Young Master."

    "This is best, but" Sun Quan wanted to say something more, but after seeing Ling Cao's expression, he stopped saying more.  He knew Ling Cao's temperament and his determination, no matter what others said, he would not listen.

    Rather than saying more and making Ling Cao upset, it¡¯s better to just let him go.

    After a few wry smiles, Sun Quan turned around and took the tiger talisman on the table, handed it to Ling Cao, and said, "In this battle, General Ling will be the commander-in-chief, leading an army of one hundred thousand, and Ling Tong Dong Xi will be the deputy general to assist in the battle. There must be no mistakes.  "

    "No!" the three generals said in unison.

    After taking the tiger talisman, Ling Cao took Ling Tong and Dong Xi away impatiently.

    After using the tiger talisman to summon 100,000 Jingzhou army officers and soldiers, they quickly rushed to the direction of Fancheng. The first one to bear the brunt was Rang County, located on the right side of Fancheng.

    Naturally, Jingzhou¡¯s large-scale troop deployment could not be concealed from the eyes and ears sent by Zhang Liao. News of Ling Cao¡¯s invasion quickly reached Zhang Liao and Gao Shun¡¯s ears.

    Gao Shun frowned and said, "Wen Yuan, Ling Cao has led a hundred thousand troops to invade. I'm worried that we won't be able to stop his attack."

    Zhang Liao was calm and said with a smile, "General Gao is overly worried. I have already prepared for it. As long as Sun Quan sends troops to try to retake Fancheng, I will definitely give him a head-on blow!"

    "Oh? What's Wen Yuan's clever plan?" Gao Shun looked curiously at Zhang Liao, who was full of confidence.

    Zhang Liao pointed to the location of Rang County on the map and said, "General Gao, look, Rang County is located on the right side of Fancheng, and Xinye is on its left. In this area, there are many mountains, forests and vegetation. It is late autumn now and the sky is high.  The Qi is refreshing, and the fire attack couldn¡¯t be better.¡±

    Gao Shun had some understanding and asked, "Does Wen Yuan want to set fire to kill the enemy when Ling Cao and others attack Rang County?"

    "Yes, but not complete." Zhang Liao smiled enigmatically.

    "Wenyuan, don't be too tight-lipped and explain quickly." Gao Shun said anxiously.

    Immediately, Zhang Liao stopped hiding and told Gao Shun his plans one by one.

    "General Gao, there is a mountain called Yushan in front of Rang County, where you can ambush elite soldiers and strong generals, and behind the mountain there is a hilly forest with lush vegetation, which can be used as a place to set fire."

    "Ling Cao leads his troops to invade Rang County, which will inevitably lead to the mountains and forests. When the time comes, General Gao will lead his troops to ambush on Yu Mountains. When the Jingzhou army arrives, he can kill the enemies with arrows and drive them all into the hills and forests.  .¡±

    "Once Ling Cao leads his army into Qiulin, I will order the army to set fire. When the fire breaks out in the forest, Ling Cao's army will inevitably be confused and defeated. If I lead the cavalry out again, I will definitely defeat Ling Cao!"

    After hearing this, Gao Shun couldn't help laughing and said: "Wen Yuan, a true Confucian general, planned such a plan, which is really a masterpiece. When Ling Cao meets an opponent like Wen Yuan, we can only say that he is too unlucky."

      Zhang Liao waved his hand and said, "General Gao has been overrated. It's just a trivial trick and won't make him worthy of being honored. We'd better lead our troops to Rang County as soon as possible to ambush him and wait for Ling Cao to fall into the trap."

    Gao Shun nodded, and then the two of them led 30,000 cavalry and 10,000 soldiers from the trapped camp to Rang County to ambush, waiting for Ling Cao to arrive.

    The invisible net has been set for Ling Cao, just waiting for him to jump into the net and return defeated.

    At this time, Ling Cao was leading an army of 100,000 people slowly towards Rangxian County, and had already reached Yushan Mountain.

    Ling Cao divided half of his soldiers to clear the way for the front team, while the rest of the army stayed behind to transport food, grass and baggage.

    Riding on his horse, Ling Cao looked up and saw the outline of a mountain in front of him, so he called his guide and asked, "Where is the front and when can we reach Rang County?"

    The guide replied: "Reporting to the general, the name of the front is Yushan. After passing Yushan, we will reach Rang County through Qiulin."

    Hearing this, Ling Cao nodded slightly and urged: "The army must speed up. We must arrive at Rang County tonight. I will retake the Fancheng area in one fell swoop. I will personally take the head of Zhang Liao and Gao Shun and offer it to the Second Young Master and the King!"

    After saying that, the army continued to move forward quickly. As they were walking, Ling Tong, Ling Cao's son and deputy general, hurried to Ling Cao and said, "Father, Yushan is narrow on both sides and is a place for ambushes. If you enter rashly,  , I¡¯m afraid there will be an ambush.¡±

    Ling Cao looked at Ling Tong, frowned slightly, and asked, "My son, what do you think should be done in terms of public performance?"

    Ling Tong thought for a while and said, "Father, in my opinion, we should first send scouts into the mountains to explore. If no ambush is found, we can continue moving forward."

    Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Ling Cao shook his head and objected directly: "No, my father said that he would rush to Rang County tonight. The army is very fast and there is no delay. It would be too time-consuming to send scouts to investigate. What's more, my father said  I don't think Zhang Liao and Gaoshun would think of setting up an ambush in Yushan."

    After saying that, Ling Cao was about to urge the army to move forward. Ling Tong looked tense and said urgently, "Father, no, if there is an ambush in the mountains, our army will be in danger. Please be careful, father, and put the overall situation first."  , don¡¯t try to be quick.¡± (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
