Chapter 201 Zhongfu

Chapter 201

However, Xue Bing led the remaining four hundred cavalry and chased the Cao army brigade for more than a month. Just when he found an opportunity, he could attack for a while, causing the Cao army to panic, so he could lead the army to go by. However, he had no good opportunity to make a move along the way.

Not to mention that Xue Bing was so depressed that even more than 400 knights under his command felt depressed.

On this day, Xue Bing rested in a hidden place south of the Cao army brigade, and at the same time, many more horses were sent to investigate.

He himself sat quietly under a big tree, took out the map and thought secretly whether he should withdraw his troops now, and gathered most of the troops to prepare to fight face to face with Cao's army.

But he was not sure that Liu Bei had already rushed to this place, nor did he know that Liu Bei sent Zhang Fei to lead some light troops to Jingyang first. When he was not sure whether his army had done his best to fight against Cao's army, Xue Bing did not dare to issue an order to withdraw his troops casually.

If he had known at this time that Zhang Fei's troops were about to arrive in Jingyang, he would probably have led his troops to look in Jingyang without hesitation, and then joined Zhang Fei's troops and then thought about how to deal with this Cao army.

As he was thinking, he suddenly reported to the left and right that he would return the horse and report something urgent. Upon hearing this, Xue Bing called him in and asked, "What are the abnormal movements of Cao's army?"

The explorer replied: "Report to the general, his subordinates found that Cao's army was mobilized continuously, and then a army left the brigade and left the sun."

Upon hearing this, Xue Bing hurriedly said, "How many soldiers are there on this route, and how are the troops distributed?"

The explorer quickly replied, "There are about 5,000 soldiers and horses on this road, and there are also 1,000 soldiers and horses for the rear team, as if they are escorting food and supplies."

After hearing this, Xue Bing took out the map, followed what the horse probing said, and looked back and forth on the map. After looking straight for a while, he thought to himself: "Cao's army is not far from Jingyang at this time. I think this army is the pioneer unit who wants to attack Jingyang."

Thinking of this, I asked about the situation of the troops in detail. When I heard that most of the troops were infantry and carried a large number of heavy objects with the army, it seemed to be siege equipment, I felt even more convinced.

After thinking so much in his heart, he couldn't help but say to himself: "If Cao's army takes Jingyang, our army will be even more dangerous. We must not let him take Jingyang away so easily."

"According to the horse probing report, although the Cao army had 5,000 people, there were only 1,000 rear troops to protect the baggage. Although our army had less than 500 cavalry left, these more than 400 were elite soldiers left after several battles.

Then, using the cavalry and shooting tactics to deal with light infantry with thousands of people, there should be no problem."

"And, as long as the logistics supplies of this army can be successfully destroyed, it can be held back for several more days." After thinking about this, my mind was even more determined. I asked who the chief general of the Cao army and where the troops are now stationed.

The detective heard this and replied: "The army commander is Xiahou Wei, one of the vanguards of the Cao army. He is now stationed on a plain southeast of Jingyang. The rear team was left for more than twenty miles by the front team, and is currently stationed next to a dense forest."

After taking the picture, Xue Bing suddenly laughed and said, "The leader of the rear team does not understand the tactics. He actually set up a camp here. God wants to help me accomplish things!" After saying that, he sent an order: "The whole army can make meals and then have a good rest. After staying late at night, he went to attack the rear team of Cao's army.



As soon as the order was released, the four hundred horses could take out the dry food and have a full meal, and then they rested next to their war horses.

The past few months of raiding life have made these 400 knights accustomed to this kind of life of sleeping in the open. At this time, when Xue Bing gave the order to rest, the knights immediately realized that they were going to sneak attack Cao's army again at night. Therefore, even if these people couldn't sleep, most of them closed their eyes to recover, and only a few people really didn't want to sleep.

So he checked his battle bow there...

The sun sets and the moon appears in the sky again. But tonight, the clouds are numerous and thick, and most of the moonlight is blocked. Coupled with the constant whistling sound of the wind, it can be called the dark moon and high wind.

Seeing this situation, Xue Bing couldn't help but feel secretly happy in his heart, and even Mi Fang beside him said: "Tonight, the moon is unclear, and there is a wind protection. It is even more difficult for Cao's army to notice the movements of our army. It is true that God helps the general to accomplish this."

Xue Bing smiled and said, "War, time, place, and people are harmonious! Now the chief general of Cao's army, Xiahou Wei, did not understand the war. He actually left the team behind for more than twenty reasons. In this way, I am afraid that we will massacre all the team behind, and the army has not yet arrived.

In addition, the leader of the team behind actually set up the camp beside the dense forest. This is really the way to die. Don’t he know that our army can burn all of them with just one fire?"

After saying that, he paused and continued, "These two points are the right place. But today's sky and the strong wind are the right time. The sky, the right place, and the combination of people. I have already occupied two of them, how can this battle be invincible?" After that, he smiled again without saying a word.

After hearing this, Mi Fang also smiled and said, "For more than a month, the Cao army has always been curled up in a group, leaving our army helpless. Today, I finally couldn't bear it anymore, and just happened to ask the general to catch the opportunity.

True Heaven wants to become a general!" Although Mi Fang is a general, he is from a merchant family, so he is quite sleek and even when flattering, he doesn't even look red.

Xue Bing was very happy after hearing Mi Fang's words. But after thinking about it carefully, he suddenly felt something was wrong. He suddenly remembered that over the past month, the Cao army had obviously deliberately reduced its troops to prevent our army from attacking.

Then why did he suddenly split his troops to attack Jingyang today?

After thinking about it, he finally said to himself: "I think it must be that Cao Zhen thought he was not far from Jingyang now, so he wanted to first get some troops to seize Jingyang so that his brigade could enter the city and have a good rest.

Moreover, judging from the number of troops he sent, it is obviously also guarding against our army's sneak attack. "After dealing with Cao's army for several months, Xue Bing had already discovered that the commander of this Cao army was Cao Zhen, and the vanguard was Xiahou Ba and Xiahou Wei.

As for Sima Yi, he was very low-key from the day he went to the expedition, as if there was no such person in this army at all. Therefore, Xue Bing did not know that he was in this army.

According to Xue Bing's understanding, although Cao Zhen was considered a famous general in the world, according to logic, Cao Zhen was still very young at this time and should not be as powerful as later generations. The division of troops this time was probably because of his negligence that he gave such an order.

I wonder if he would have thought so if he knew that the deputy governor of Cao's army was Sima Yi.

However, although he was suspicious, he still believed that this was a temporary negligence by two younger generations, Cao Zhen and Xiahou Wei, so he was not prepared to stop.

However, he became more sceptical and turned his head to Mi Fang and said, "This is the words of the talented man Fang, which made me suddenly confused. I was afraid that this was the plan of Cao's army, so I wanted to lead a hundred cavalry alone to support me.

If this is the plan of Cao's army, I should quickly lead my troops to rescue him!"

By the way, Mi Fang was thinking about sneak attacking Cao's army with Xue Bing, and making more military achievements. When he went back to see his brother or sister, he could also show his achievements.

After all, he has been with Liu Bei for many years, and has never made any contributions, and has never boast about anything. Many people even secretly say that he has relied on his sister's relationship to find his current status.

Although he didn't care much on the surface, he was still a little unhappy in his heart. Until this time, he followed the army to the northern expedition, he did not think about what kind of military achievements he could make.

When Xue Bing made him the deputy general and went deep behind the enemy, he knew that as long as he could survive smoothly, he would definitely be a small contribution when he returned to the army. Although he had no choice but to make great contributions, he was not a good deal.

At this moment, he was thinking about the scene when he went back to receive the reward after defeating Cao's army.

Therefore, when Xue Bing called him, he was still unresponsive and was stunned for a while before answering: "General, you are so careful!"

Xue Bing said, "Be careful, there is no harm!" Then he whispered a few words of orders from Yu Mifang, leaving a hundred cavalry to hand them over, and led the remaining soldiers to whip and look for the soldiers who were left behind by Xiahou Wei to kill them...

The war horses ran rapidly, and in a short time, they had already rushed to the vicinity of more than a thousand Cao soldiers. Xue Bing looked at the camp in the distance, but his doubts were even more serious.

It turned out that Xue Bing looked here for a while and saw that although there was a faint fire coming from the camp in the distance, it was as quiet as no one. It would make sense to say that Cao's army had gone to rest late at night. But we should always leave some soldiers to patrol back and forth?

In addition, the moon was dark and light tonight, so the patrol soldier had to take a torch. But Xue Bing looked here for a while and found that although there were faint lights of fire coming from the village in the distance, none of the fire was moving.

If it were normal, Xue Bing might not have paid attention to these trivial matters, but at first he was suspicious because of Mi Fang's unintentional words, and at this moment he felt something was wrong with everything.

For example, the dense forest that originally made Xue Bing feel very happy, but at this time, Xue Bing only felt that the black holes were dark and murderous intent soared into the sky, and she thought that many human-eating beasts were about to rush out of it.

After listening for a while, he found that the vicinity was much quieter than other places. Xue Bing suddenly felt alert and hurriedly whispered to his left and right: "There is a fraud! This must be a plan for Cao's army, and retreat quickly!"

Before the shouting came, I saw the fire suddenly surged into the sky in the village ahead, and countless Cao troops holding torches rushed out from inside. The sound of horse hooves rumbling from the dense forest beside the village, and countless cavalry rushed out of the forest.

Even Xue Bing's army was not far ahead, and many Cao soldiers emerged from somewhere. At this time, they all held up their weapons and torches and shouted in unison: "You have fallen into the plan of my deputy governor, why don't you get off the horse and get tied up quickly!" While shouting, they watched Xue Bing's cavalry rush towards him.

Besides, Xue Bing immediately heard the shocking shouting loudly in unison, and was shocked and said to himself: "Deputy Governor of Cao's Army? Who is it?" At the same time, he suddenly realized that Cai Jijun passed by a small hill, which was an excellent place to hide troops.

I only remember that Cao's army set up camp beside the forest, but forgot to observe the surrounding terrain. But I shouted loudly: "Don't be surprised by all the soldiers! Our army has not yet fallen into the enemy's encirclement, retreat quickly!"

But before he finished speaking, he saw a short mountain behind him turning out a army, leading the general, with a golden sword, a big flag behind him, and writing the word Xiahou. It was Xiahou Ba, the vanguard of Cao's army.
