If Cao Hong becomes angry out of shame, regardless of whether he leaves the city, or if Cao Hong receives new reinforcements from the new wilderness, both of these situations are likely to happen...

After Liao Hua ordered his scouts to closely monitor the movements of Cao's army, he stood silently on a high hill and looked into the distance, as if he could see the dark shadows behind the bonfire in the distance through the dark night.

If Cao Hong storms out, there is still hope of a chance to fight, and if reinforcements from Cao's army come from Xinye, then together with Cao Hong's soldiers...

Also, when will Xu Huang arrive, and will he be able to make it in time?

What would happen if Xu Huang happened to be delayed by something and came a day or two late?

The wind howled in the surrounding fields, and the water flowed under the hills.

"Kong Ming," Liao Hua asked, "What do you think? Should you keep it, or..."

Zhuge Liang sat on the stone. He changed into a light robe and looked somewhat elegant at this moment. After being silent for a long time, he said, "These new troops... may not be reinforcements from the new field..."

Although Zhuge Liang said so, he was not very sure and his tone was not very firm because Zhuge Liang had no conclusive evidence to prove this.

Cao Cao's large army went south, and it was true that only Xiahou Dun and Cao Hong were in charge of Jingzhou. At the same time, General Hussar also sent Tai Shici and Zhu Ling to contain the troops in Xu County. Normally, Cao Cao's troops in Xu County were unlikely to have any troops.

Action. But this is just normal. What if it is abnormal?

Either Taishi Ci was deceived, or some other incident occurred, allowing Cao Jun to transfer some of his troops from Xu County to the south...

At this moment, Zhuge Liang deeply felt that what he learned in the book was not completely consistent with the problems he encountered in practice. At least, the Six Taoists talked about how to set up camp and how to form defenses, but that was not the case.

It has not been said, and it is impossible to say, what exactly is going on in this situation.

"Before leaving Chang'an, the Cavalry General had a conversation with a certain person..." Zhuge Liang suddenly said a topic that seemed to have nothing to do with the current situation, ""What you read in the book will eventually make you feel shallow"..."

Liao Hua tilted his head, murmured and repeated it twice, nodded, "It seems there is still some unfinished meaning."

Zhuge Liang chuckled and said: "The meaning of Hussar is that when I return to Chang'an, I can complete the second half of the sentence by myself..."

Liao Hua asked: "Then... have you completed it now?"

Zhuge Liang nodded, then shook his head, "I only thought of one thing... Now, we need to sort out the current situation again..."

Zhuge Liang's eyes were shining under the starlight, "What is the original intention of the two Xiahou and Cao clans to occupy Fancheng and Xiangyang? They are trying to act as each other's horns, seize the Han River, block us, and Cao's army can conquer the entire Jingzhou..."

Liao Hua nodded.

"Secondly, General Taishi left Heluo in the east and approached Xu County, but did not attack or attack. Even if there were talented and learned people in Xu County who could see through this strategy, the emperor would definitely need to defend Xu County and would not dare to do so.

Relax..."

Liao Hua thought for a moment and said, "That's right."

Zhuge Liang's eyes became brighter and brighter, "So, this time the soldiers and horses... if it is really Cao Jun's new field reinforcements, rushing to attack, but not fighting when they come, will there be any trace of atrocities?"

Liao Hua was stunned for a moment, then slapped his palm fiercely, "Yes! That's exactly the truth!"

Thinking about it from another angle, if Cao Jun really arrived with reinforcements, would he choose to take advantage of Liao Hua and Zhuge Liang's unpreparedness and launch a surprise attack overnight to have a greater chance of winning, or would he have to camp and repair in front of Liao Hua and Zhuge Liang and organize an open and honest attack the next day?

Is it in line with the Han dynasty’s benevolence, filial piety and morality?

After all, Liao Hua and Zhuge Liang fought fiercely with Cao Hong for nearly a whole day, and the sound was shocking everywhere. If Cao Jun really wanted to send reinforcements, it was impossible for Cao Hong to be completely unaware of it, and it was impossible for Cao Hong to not receive the order. Therefore, the previous retreat and the current

The two actions of making a comeback and setting up camp are contradictory to each other...

"Come here!" Liao Hua called the scouts and ordered, "Get closer to investigate! These bonfires may just be suspicious soldiers..."

The scouts followed the order and left. Obviously, after hearing Liao Hua say that these Cao Jun campfires were suspicious soldiers, although they could not be sure immediately, the mood in the army immediately relaxed a lot.

People are afraid of the unknown.

Once it becomes known, it is easy to turn from fear to arrogance...

Not long after, the scout came back, his excitement was palpable, "False! It's fake! There is no one at the campfire! I went to three campfires, and there was no one!"

Liao Hua exhaled, then raised his eyebrows, but when he saw Zhuge Liang shaking his head slightly, his eyebrows suddenly dropped again. He pondered for a moment and said: "In this case, there is no need to worry! Give the order, everyone is on guard, don't relax."

!』

After the soldiers were sent down, Liao Hua turned around and said, "Since it's a fake camp, why not..."

"Although it is a fake camp, it may not be without an ambush..." Zhuge Liang said with a smile, "Since we are in an invincible position, why take risks and gain credit?"

Liao Hua pondered for a moment, then bowed his hand to Zhuge Liang and said, "I have learned from you."

Slowly, the sky gradually became brighter. When the first ray of light from the sky tilted down and caressed Zhuge Liang's head and body, Zhuge Liang smiled slightly. There was no sleepiness or fatigue on his face. Instead, he looked more energetic and welcoming.
