Cao Cao crosses Wu Dalang

Chapter 278 Cao Cao Excavated Wang Qing

Liu Yanqing is a veteran of hundreds of battles, after he said these words, the brows of the other generals were deeply furrowed.

Han Shizhong gritted his teeth and shouted: "After hundreds of miles into the thief's nest, is it possible to retreat in vain? In such a situation, it is natural to take a gamble with your life. The general will give me three thousand elites. My old Han will attack him first, and then we will see the clues. "

Cao Cao patted Han Shizhong in fear: "Brother Han, you are a handsome and talented person, and you need to guard against arrogance and impetuosity. You must know that everything is born, and nothing is perfect. Is Fangzhou an exception?"

Han Shizhong's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Brother Wu, do you really have a good idea?"

But Xu Guanzhong clapped his hands and shouted: "Ah, what a clever plan! Brother is right, since ancient times the world has not been perfect, let alone this city!"

Han Shizhong scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously, and said, "Do you know what brother Wu is thinking?"

Xu Guanzhong smiled and said: "I dare not say that I guessed it right, brother Wu, why don't you let me write it on the palm of my hand and see if what I see is similar?"

Cao Cao laughed and said, "Yes!"

Immediately, the person took the pen and ink, turned their backs, each wrote in the palm, turned around, looked at each other, turned the palms over at the same time, a bunch of heads came together, and said in unison: "Water!"

Cao Xu blinked and laughed at the same time.

Liu Yanqing blinked, looked at the Nanhe River not far away, and wondered: "Digging water to attack the city? With all due respect, this strategy may be feasible against Xiangyang. This Fangzhou is high on the hillside. When I dig water, don't I drown myself first?" ?”

Cao Cao pointed to Xu Guanzhong and said, "Don't worry, general, and listen to Guan Zhong's explanation."

Xu Guanzhong smiled and said: "It's not about digging water, we just need to do this, this and that, the city will be destroyed without attack."

When the generals heard this, they couldn't believe it at first, then they were surprised and delighted, and finally their faces were full of ecstasy: "Ah, this plan is really wonderful!"

Han Shizhong even gave a deep salute, and he said sincerely: "I heard people say before that for a general, he should understand astronomy, geography, know strange gates, understand yin and yang, observe the formation map, and understand the situation of the army. If you talk nonsense, you will know the truth today!"

Liu Yanqing was also overjoyed: "We've also fought old battles, the flaws that are clearly in front of us, without you pointing them out, it's as hard to see as if we were blind."

On that day, the entire army of the Song army came out and surrounded the mound. 10,000 people were covered with shields and planks, and another 10,000 people only searched for the dense weeds and dug hard. There were still 10,000 people waiting in full force. Suddenly sent troops to fight.

Li Zhu and the others got the report. They saw the Song army digging holes, and there was a lot of discussion. Li Zhu said disdainfully, "It's not easy to break the city with tunnels?" The next one is to make people sit in the tank and listen to the sound of the ground. If the sound is not right, the tunnel will be dug and watered with boiling oil and water.

The next day Wang Qing also went to the city to see it himself, he laughed and said: "Although there is a strategist's ingenious plan, seeing him digging day and night like this will eventually make everyone tired, and it is better to send troops to attack and kill him."

Then he ordered the four generals Li Xiong, Bi Xian, Liu Yuan and Pan Zhong recommended by Fang Han to lead 1000 horses each. Hearing the sound of the drums in the city, they opened the four doors together and killed the generals together.

The four flaunted their strength and waited at the door with soldiers and horses. When they heard the sound of the drum, they immediately opened the four doors and made a noise along the dirt hill. Bows and arrows were also fired from the top of the city.

Unexpectedly, the Song army had been ordered early on. When they saw the enemy army rushing out, those with shields and planks, one by one, protected the other, and slowly withdrew the earth-digging army behind them. They immediately brought people up.

How many heroes are under Cao Cao's command?After a chaotic battle, outside the east gate, Lu Junyi killed Pan Zhong with one shot; outside the west gate, Sun An beheaded Li Xiong with three moves; , Geng Gong and Liu Yuan fought fiercely for more than rounds, but Liu Yuan was never defeated, and he fled back to the city.

When Wang Qing saw that only one of the four generals came back from the battle, he was shocked and couldn't help shouting: "You know that the generals have lost many times! It turns out that group of people are so powerful." He also ordered Liu Yuan to be rewarded heavily: "Your martial arts, even For being extraordinary, if you do your best in the future, you will be rewarded."

After a while, the city no longer dared to fight lightly. Although the bows and arrows were shot randomly from time to time, the Song army was well prepared, and few people were injured.

On the next day, there were several caves with billowing water. Cao Cao was overjoyed and quickly ordered people to enlarge the caves to allow the water to flow out.

The defenders on the city saw them, and they didn't know why, so they hurriedly reported it. Li Zhu hurriedly went up to the city to have a look. Spewing, his expression changed in surprise, he patted his thigh and cried out: "Who knows that there is such an expert in the Song army! He used such a desperate plan!"

At this time, Wang Qing and the others came, they were all dumbfounded, and said in surprise: "Song Jun, why is this, do you want to take a bath in the hot weather?"

Li Zhu said angrily: "You are blind, and the river is next to you, and he still wants to dig water to take a bath?"

Fang Han said angrily: "You are respected by the king, and you always love to play tricks, but now you offend your father. He failed to dig a hole, but was flooded, isn't it a good thing?"

Li Zhu saw that this was the case, and these people were still so stupid. He felt an unknown fire rushing straight to the sky. He jumped up and knocked Fang Han down with a scratch, pointing and cursing: "Poor Li, I hate it. I just want to find a wise master to do a good job in Jingtianwei. I thought Wang Qing was very courageous, but who would have thought that he would use you and other villains, so it can be seen that he is not a person who can do great things! Now that the enemy has used a trick to save your family, you are still a good thing , people like you are important ministers, what hope does this great Chu have?"

Hearing that Li Zhulian scolded him too, Wang Qing couldn't help being furious, and shouted: "Military Master, why did you make such a rebellious statement? Fang Han is mediocre, but he is loyal and courageous, so why look down on him?" ? Everyone works together, and there is nothing we can't handle."

"Can you handle it?" Li Zhu shook his body and said sadly: "You can send someone to look at the wells in the city, and you will know the clue."

Li Zhu had always been calm and calm, this was the first time Wang Qing saw him lose his composure, and he couldn't help beating his heart for a moment, so he took a look at Li Zhu and sent someone to look at the well.

Not long after, the subordinates came to report in panic, saying that the well water in the city was full, and all of them had receded without a trace. They went down to dig the well several feet deep, and only a little muddy soup gushed out, which disappeared after a while.

Only then did Wang Qing and others learn Cao Cao's intention of digging holes everywhere, and he gritted his teeth and said in hatred: "How vicious is this person, who cut off the water veins of this city, and wants to destroy my foundation?"

Li Zhu said with a sad smile: "This city was built on the hill because of the underground river. Now it has been cut off and it has become a ruined city. It's ridiculous that Li thinks he is very wise, and he has to wait for others to run out of food, haha , now it seems that Song Jun has not starved to death, and we will die of thirst first."

Wang Qing and the others looked at each other, their faces pale.

The next day, there was no water in the whole city. It was nearly July, and the sun was scorching like fire in the sky, and the soldiers and civilians complained a lot.

Wang Qing sent Li Zhu to set up an altar to pray for rain, but to no avail.

At night, a small group of soldiers and civilians fled out of the city. Cao Cao had already sent people to patrol around.

On the third day, the city was full of clamor, Wang Qing led more than ten thousand soldiers, engulfed the people in the city, and fought out in the middle of the night. Cao Cao had been prepared, and in an instant, countless fires were lit up, illuminating the battlefield as bright as day, and the bandit soldiers Without drinking water for two or three days, the combat power was greatly lost. The Song army marched in formation and was invincible against a weak enemy, as if it were a really strong army.

The battle ended very quickly, and the common people and bandit soldiers knelt down and begged to surrender. Fang Han, Qiu Xiang, and Shi Jun were all captured. Liu Yijing and Liu Yuan, two fierce generals, protected Wang Qing and led more than remnant troops back to the city. In the story, the veteran Liu Yanqing draws his bow to shoot Wang Qing, and the deputy guard Shangguan Yi dies.

Cao chased his horse to the bottom of the city, but the opponent had already closed the city gate tightly. When he led his troops back, he saw that there was still a fierce battle. When he went over, he saw that it was Lu Junyi who was fighting with someone.

The man was not wearing armor, he was wearing a long gown, but the sword in his hand was so fast that it was like thunder and lightning. Lu Junyi yelled and retreated step by step, but he couldn't hold back.

There are different teachings: a good plan is in the belly, and the sword is always high.After the battle, the heroes suddenly tied their hands, Yingjie worshiped Cao Cao today.

　It's dead.

　　The cold seems to be getting better soon, and he really is a man of iron.
