    In order to prevent the fall of Wushi County and the news that the army's retreat was cut off, Cao Cao strictly ordered Cao Hong to block it.

    And he immediately fell into a difficult decision.

    With the retreat route cut off and lack of food and grass, the army simply cannot hold out for long.

    So now there are only two options.

    The natural one is to withdraw the troops and attack Wushi County to regain their own retreat.

    The other option is to attack Liu Ke head-on, capture Qixian and then enter the Guanzhong Plain.

    But no matter which strategy you choose, make your decision early.

    Because Cao Jun's food and grass can only last ten days.

    However, both strategies have considerable risks.

    Choose the first one. If Wushi County cannot be captured, Liu Ke's army will attack from both sides.

    ¡°My army of more than 100,000 will be blocked in the narrow Jingshui River Valley, and in the end it will be impossible to escape the fate of annihilation.

    If you choose the second one, you will not be able to break through Liu Ke's defense line, and you will not be able to escape the same fate.

    Faced with such a problem, Cao Cao couldn't help but feel a headache.

    The headache that was originally suppressed showed signs of recurrence.

    The news that Zhang He captured Wushi County also reached Cao Ren's army.

    When Cao Ren heard this, his expression suddenly changed.

    His original mission was to contain Ma Chao's army. Judging from the current situation, his mission was relatively successful.

    However, Cao Ren was shocked by the news that Wushi County in the rear was lost.

    Because, when he refused to defend Ma Chao in Yangcheng, he originally wanted to prevent the opponent from advancing directly to Wushi County.

    However, now that Wushi County has been lost, what is the meaning of his refusal?

    Therefore, Cao Ren immediately summoned his subordinates to discuss countermeasures.

    Everyone was equally shocked by the news.

    Some people even expressed pessimistically: "Has the king's army been defeated by the other party?

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? How to explain that the other party have occupied Wushi County?  "

    Not to mention, the move Liu Ke planned was really a divine weapon descending from the sky.

    He keenly discovered the key node connecting Cao Cao's two armies, and inserted a sharp knife into it, instantly disrupting the opponent's overall plan.

    Now, Cao Ren is in a dilemma.

    If he continues to hold on, he will naturally not be disobeying Cao Cao's military orders.

    But in this case, if it is true that Cao Cao's army has been defeated, he will definitely sit back and watch the other party's destruction.

    But if Wushi County is occupied by the enemy, it is just a rumor released by the other party.

    Giving up on Yangcheng rashly is tantamount to inviting a wolf into the house.

    Therefore, Cao Ren was in a dilemma and didn't know what choice to make!

    In the end, for the sake of Cao Cao's safety, he made up his mind to rush to Wushi County to check it out.

    Although Cao Ren now has 50,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, he still has to guard against Ma Chao's army who attacks Fanxukou every day.

    After these days of consumption, there are only more than 40,000 people.

    Therefore, to be on the safe side, he only dispatched five thousand soldiers and horses, led by his veteran general Chang Diao, and went to Wushi County to check the specific situation first.

    After all, deserters cannot always be trusted. They sometimes deliberately exaggerate the enemy's strength in order to shirk their responsibilities.

    Just like this time, Zhang He only had 5,000 soldiers and horses, but the frightened deserters boasted that they covered the sky and the sun, as if a hundred thousand troops were approaching.

    On the one hand, they deliberately exaggerated, and on the other hand, it was also because Zhang He was so powerful that the momentum he created was extraordinary.

    After Chang Diao received the order, he immediately counted his troops and rushed to Wushi County at starry night.

    After Zhang He captured Wushi County, he immediately sent envoys back via the original route to deliver the news to Liu Ke and the other army.

    Because he only has 5,000 soldiers and horses, if Cao Cao fights back at all costs, he will not be able to hold on for long.

    And his mission is just to disturb the opponent's military morale, and he does not have the strength to fight for a long time.

    Zhang He warned the messengers about his current situation, and these soldiers immediately set off and traveled over the mountains and ridges overnight to return to Qixian County.

    A few days later, Liu Ke, who was in Qixian Camp, finally got the news.

    "Jun Yi has indeed lived up to my expectations, and has now successfully captured Wushi County, the backbone of Cao's army!"

    Liu Ke was very happy and exclaimed cheerfully.?, take the letter to the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs.

    Everyone was very excited when they found out.

    Because if this step is taken, it will only be a matter of time before the army wins.

    At the same time, regarding Zhang He¡¯s concerns, Liu Ke raised the issue and asked everyone to discuss it.

    Zhuge Liang and Guo Jia looked at each other and told them the next plan that they had already discussed.

    "After General Zhang He captured Wushi County, Cao Cao was probably the most anxious.

    "However, I estimate that Cao Cao's troops are already in ruins this time, so he is very likely to make a desperate move and attack our army head-on."

    Therefore, he will probably not care about the loss of Wushi County, but will attack our Qixian County.  "

    "Hahaha, I couldn't ask for more. This time I sent General Zhang He's troops to take the risk, isn't it just to force Cao Cao out of his retreat.

    I have countless famous generals with millions of armors, how can I be afraid of Cao Cao's son?  "

    Liu Ke laughed loudly, not taking the other party seriously at all.

    And his performance also infected the generals, who also became confident and full of fighting spirit!

    At this time, Zhuge Liang continued: "Your Majesty, even if Cao Cao's main force is desperate, it is impossible to shake the heavenly army.

    But in order to reduce the losses of our army, we can add more firepower to him.  "

    "Oh? What else does Kong Ming have to say?"

    Liu Ke has always loved soldiers as much as his sons. Hearing that he had a better plan, he immediately became interested.

    Zhuge Liang glanced at Xun Yu and gave him the opportunity.

    Xun Yu then continued: "Cao Cao made a desperate move, but Cao Ren, the leader of another Cao army, did not dare to do so.

    Now that Wushi County has been lost, he is worried about his lord's safety and must send troops to support him.

    So all you need to do is write a letter to Meng Qi and order him to cooperate with General Zhang He to launch a strong attack on Cao Ren's defenders.

    In less than half a month, Cao Ren's 50,000-strong army in the Yangcheng area will be defeated.

    At that time, Meng Qi will lead his army directly to Wushi County, go down the Jing River, and attack our army from both sides. Cao Cao will be a fish in a urn!  "

    Liu Ke was overjoyed when he heard this. He immediately arranged for the sergeant to draft a draft and sent it to Ma Chao's army on a starry night journey.

    Marching on the plains, the messenger arrived at Ma Chao's military camp within two days.

    Ma Chao opened the envelope and was immediately overjoyed. He invited General Pang Tong to discuss the matter.

    "Haha, Meng Qi, you are still too cautious. What else is there to discuss? Just attack by force and that's it!"

    After Pang Tong saw the message, he only replied to him with one sentence.

    Ma Chao originally had some concerns, but now he made up his mind after Pang Tong's words.

    "Go ahead and order the army to set off today and march towards Fanxukou." Ma Chao immediately announced loudly, and all the troops took action instantly.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
