Li Dian said, with some envy on his face, "I didn't expect Bo Huai to meet his lord so early... It's so lucky, so lucky..."

"The general has martial arts skills and can meet the lord, and can open up the territory and make no achievements in history..." Chang Lin quickly said, "I am just a little literary talent and aware of arithmetic. It cannot be compared with the general's previous situation..."

Chang Lin thought Li Dian had some emotions?

Of course, I kept saying some good things.

"Okay, okay..." Li Dian waved his hands repeatedly, "Is it just a martial artist... Is martial arts good, knowledgeable, sparse... But since the lord is with important responsibilities, he should naturally be cautious and should not let his lord down..."

Chang Lin nodded, yes, yes, you are right.

『It's snowing...』

In the queue, a soldier suddenly shouted.

Li Dian looked up and saw tiny snowflakes floating down scatteredly in the sky.

Li Dian stretched out his hand, and a snowflake fell on his hand, and the fine coldness melted quickly.

"Tell me the whole army stops advancing!"

...

...

Cao Zhen watched the scout come in a hurry and his heart sank straight down.

Sure enough, the Hanzhong army stopped advancing.

The Hanzhong army stopped in the wind and snow, and no longer moved forward.

"What should I do if you are the master?"

Cao Zhen was very depressed and could not understand. He set up an ambush because he suddenly had an intention and did not talk to others. He also brought the direct troops of Cao's army, so it would not be possible to leak the secrets. But the Hanzhong army not only acted slowly, but also stopped advancing at the moment...

Maybe it's because it's snowing?

Are the Hanzhong Army worried about abnormal weather?

Cao Zhen looked up at the sky, hoping that the snow would end as soon as possible.

This may dispel some of the concerns of the Hanzhong army?

As long as the Hanzhong army continues to advance and enters Sandian County, everything is still under its control.

But it's a pity.

After an hour, the ground gradually became white.

Cao Zhen watched the scout's figure getting closer and closer, and his heart suddenly started to beat violently.

He was eagerly looking forward to the scout that he could tell him that the Hanzhong army had advanced again.

"Remove the Lord, the enemy...removed..."

"What?" Cao Zhen suddenly felt like he was stabbed by something, and his whole body was leaking out with a slight sound.

...

...

The snowflakes are not big, but they never stopped.

Li Dianjun returned to Mulan Village and ordered the soldiers to repair them, and prepare clothes for cold protection and related supplies.

Li Dian kept patrolling the camp until he saw that all the soldiers and war horses were properly placed, and he returned to the central army's tent to rest. It was already late at night.

Ma Zhong stood beside the big tent.

The fire shone on his face, and some light and shadow were uncertain.

"But I feel that I'm not going to make a contribution today?" Li Dian called Ma Zhong to enter the tent together, "Come on, sit down... no need to be polite..."

Ma Zhong thanked him and sat down, "It's definitely not... it's just... it's a little confused..."

Li Dian nodded, thought for a while, and said, "In your opinion, how should we make sure that it is not a plan to lure troops?"

Ma Zhong said: "Attacking Xianxian! As long as you attack Xianxian, if Cao's army has ambushing troops, it will inevitably appear! We have war horses and can swivel quickly..."

Li Dian shook his head and said, "Do you know we have war horses, will the Cao army know? If the Cao army really set up an ambush, how could you easily turn around?"

"This..." Ma Zhong was stunned.

Ma Zhong did not try to argue because what Li Dian said was indeed the truth.

If he was a general of Cao's army, he would definitely consider this.

Especially in mountainous areas like Shangyong, war horses are restricted greatly and it is impossible to run around, so once they are really blocked by Cao's army, they will be very passive.

"Is it because of this?" Ma Zhong asked, "Based on this alone... I still feel that I am too cautious... I may miss an opportunity..."

Fighting is bound to be accompanied by risks.

Even if you are prepared for a perfect war, there are uncontrollable risks.

So if we just have the risk of being ambushed, Ma Zhong still doesn't agree with it.

Li Dian smiled, "What is the reason why we gave up Sand County?"

"The county is broken and easy to attack and difficult to defend... Ah! The general's intention is..." Ma Zhong seemed to think of something.

Li Dian nodded, "That's right. I've been thinking about this matter... Since we know that it's easy to attack and difficult to defend in Sanxian County, then when Cao's army arrived in Sanxian County, even if they didn't know the terrain around Sanxian County, they must have known it... Since it's easy to attack and difficult to defend, why did Cao's army still act in a defensive posture in Sanxian County after many investigations by the Cao army? Do they really think that the cavalry cannot attack and attack? Or do they think that they will not follow the progressive soldiers behind the front drive of the cavalry?"

『So…』 Ma Zhong nodded,『I heard the general’s words, indeed… Cao’s actions were indeed a bit strange…』

'That's it.' Li Dian said with a smile, 'What's more, we gave up Sand County to lengthen the supply route of Cao's army and make him exhausted between Shangyong Mountains...'

The Hanzhong army controlled by Li Dian is not infinite, and he must also measure the cost of war. If too much is consumed in Cao Zhen, what about Cao Ren next? If all the troops are consumed, even if Cao Zhen and Cao Ren are finally defeated, how can we carry out the follow-up matters in Hanzhong and Shangyong next?

If there is no enough army, if the Di people and mediocre people around him have any thoughts, they will not only not solve the worries of the General of the Cavalry, but they will also need Fei Qian to lose his troops from Guanzhong or Sichuan and Shu to support him...

That really disappointed Fei Qian's expectations.

『It is easy to attack and difficult to defend, so even if the Cao army really had civil strife...』 Li Dian said slowly, "We attacked without ambushing, Cao army was defeated by us... Then what? We reoccupied San County? We welcomed the enemy in San County? Then wouldn't it be against each other's plan for the weary army before? Moreover, Cao's army was only in the front. Even if it defeated the enemy in San County, it might not be able to stop the Cao army from continuing to advance, so we gave up San County again? In this way, death and injury, regardless of what is the significance?』

"Ah..." Ma Zhong couldn't answer.

"If there are small profits, but there are dangers of great damage, it is not taken." Li Dian said, "This is the 27th theory of martial arts talk..."

Not every piece of chess has to be killed, and not every piece of chess is to take advantage of it when fighting.

Ma Zhong left the seat and bowed, "The general thoughtfully, and the last general admired him!"

Li Dian stood up, pulled Ma Zhong up, and said with a smile: "It was all taught by the cavalry... I couldn't figure it out at first, and I thought about it slowly on the road, and then I figured it out... It happened to snow at that time, which reminded me of the tired army plan we set... This is the time, and the more anxious one should be the Cao army, why are we anxious?"

"Yes!" Ma Zhong now figured it out, so he nodded repeatedly, "The general said so much! Thank you for your advice! The last general had many verbal offenses, death sentences, death sentences! "

Li Dian patted Ma Zhong on the shoulder, "I am all dedicated to the great cause of the cavalry, so don't worry... It's too late today, let's go to rest early!"

Li Dian sent Ma Zhong out of the big tent.

Ma Zhong bowed again before saying goodbye to Li Dian and left.

Li Dian looked up at the sky.

Snowflakes are flying and falling.

"It's snowing in Hanzhong...it's where Tongguan in Chang'an...it's probably...

Li Dian sighed, and then a little smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

『It's so... so snow...』
