As soon as Xu Huang's army moved, Wei Yan and Cui Zhouping of Wancheng received the news. Cui Zhouping was a very cautious person, and he immediately wrote three letters and sent them to Xincheng, Xinye, and Xiangyang.
At the same time, Wei Yan was quickly summoned to the Taishou Mansion to discuss countermeasures.
"Chief Wen, Xu Huang led an army of 40,000 and came to take Nanyang with great momentum, how should I deal with it?" "
Ha..." Wei Yan chuckled a few times, there was no worry on his face, "Zhou Ping doesn't have to worry, the lord left 20,000 troops in Nanyang, stationed in Xincheng and Wancheng respectively. And those Cao army prisoners who repaired the new city, remove the old and weak, and there are still five thousand, I have retrained them and scattered them into our Han army. Now, Wancheng has an army of 15,000. Even if Xu Huang's 40,000 soldiers and horses attacked the city at the same time, we could hold it. What's more, there is also the containment of the new city.
"So good!" Cui Zhouping listened to Wei Yan's words and finally relaxed.
"Zhou Ping, you also lead 10,000 soldiers and horses to defend the city, and I will take 5,000 soldiers and horses out of the city and pull out their vanguard to dampen their spirit!" "
Wen Chang, the pioneers of the Cao army, Xue Ti and Cao Xiu, are both wise and brave generals, they must be on guard, I am afraid that the ambush will not succeed!" Cui Zhouping immediately understood what Wei Yan wanted to do.
Xue Ti was a native of Yanzhou and followed Cao Cao very early on and achieved outstanding combat achievements. Although Cao Xiu was Cao Cao's subordinate, Cao Cao regarded him as his own and often praised him as a thousand miles of the Cao family.
The names of the two of them, Cui Zhouping and Wei Yan are naturally clear.
"Xue Ti and Cao Xiu are powerful, we know. But I Wei Yan is so powerful, they don't know!" Cui
Zhouping saw that when Wei Yan said these words, there was not arrogance in his eyes, but a kind of confidence, so he nodded. Of course, in terms of the military, Liu Jun has long stipulated that under normal circumstances, Cui Zhouping will not interfere.
"Chief Wen should also be more careful, if we can't do it, we will retreat, we will refuse the city and defend it!" "
Good!" Xue
Ti and Cao Xiu led 5,000 soldiers and horses to Nanyang. Along the way, the march was very fast.
"Zilie, we have left Yique Pass for more than a hundred miles, calculate the time, General Xu's army has just set out, or should we set up camp and let the soldiers fix it?" said Xue Ti to Cao Xiu.
"Xiaowei, I can't wait to be able to fly under Wancheng with wings on my arms!" Cao Xiu's face was like frost, "I want all the Han troops in Wancheng to die and avenge my uncle!"
At the same time, they also hated Jingzhou Mu Liu Jun and all the Han army.
Xue Ti was a veteran, of course he knew that the main general was the most jealous and raised troops, and quickly persuaded: "Zilie, according to the scout's report, there are 15,000 soldiers and horses in Wancheng, and there are also 10,000 soldiers and horses stationed in Xincheng, they echo each other
!" "Fifteen thousand soldiers and horses, why be afraid!" Cao Xiu was very unimpressed, "The soldiers and horses of Xincheng are restrained by the two generals Zhao Jian and Zhu Ling, and Wei Yan is a nameless rat, he huddles into the city, I will definitely break through!"
If he dares to go out of the city, I will immediately behead him!" "
Zilie, march and fight, and do not underestimate the enemy!"
"Xiaowei, you are getting older and older now, but your courage is getting smaller and smaller. If you are afraid, camp here and wait for the news of my victory!" "
Alas!" Xue Ti let out a long sigh and shook his head, knowing that it was useless to persuade any more, so he had to stop talking.
"Pass on my order, speed up, and reach Wancheng before dark!" Cao Xiu ordered loudly when he saw that Xue Ti no longer insisted.
"No!" the herald immediately went to give the order.
Walked forward, about ten miles, into a valley.
"Zilie, the road ahead is narrowing, there may be ambushes, we must be more careful. Xue Ti reminded Cao Xiu again.
Cao Xiu is also battle-hardened, and although he is eager to avenge his uncle Cao Ren, he is not completely relaxed his vigilance. He looked up and immediately ordered the soldier to stop.
The valley here is quite wide, and the afternoon sun shines in, which makes it very bright. But on, it narrows significantly, and the forest is lush and shades the sky.
Birds can hardly be heard in the mountains and forests, which makes people feel eerie and terrifying.
"Xiaowei, we each lead a team of soldiers and horses, a mile apart, and slowly pass. If you encounter an enemy ambush, you can respond to each other!" "
Good!" The
two quickly separated the five thousand soldiers and horses, and first sent some scouts to explore the way, and after a while, the scouts returned to report that no ambush soldiers were found.
So Cao Xiu led an army of 3,000 soldiers to slowly move towards the valley, and after walking about a mile, Xue Ti led the remaining 2,000 soldiers to also set out.
The valley was not long, but they walked slowly and carefully, so it took more than an hour to pass smoothly.
After the two armies converged, Xue Ti breathed a sigh of relief.
"Xiaowei, I'm right, Wei Yan is a fearless rat, he is afraid that when he hears our army coming, he will be so frightened that he huddles into the city and does not dare to come out, ha..." Cao Xiu laughed.
"Zilie, let's not be too careless, it's right to be careful when marching and fighting!" "
I have my own measure!" Cao Xiu was very unimpressed, "The army speeds up, and must reach Wancheng before dark!"
But just after running less than three miles, he stopped all of a sudden, and saw a group of soldiers and horses in front of him in the middle of the road, blocking the way.
In front of the soldiers and horses, there was a general, dressed in black armor, riding a large black horse, holding a large knife in his hand. There is a big flag on the back, and a big "Wei" character is written on it.
It was Wei Yan, the garrison general of the Wancheng City of the Han Army!
"Ha..." Upon seeing Wei Yan, Cao Xiu laughed loudly, "Xiaowei, it seems that this Wei Yan does not understand the art of war at all, and if he sets up an ambush in the valley, he can still cause us some trouble." But if you line up in this open area to block the attack, wouldn't you be seeking your own death!" Xue
Ti also felt that what Cao Xiu said was reasonable, looking at the soldiers under Wei Yan, there should be only three thousand, how could they stop their five thousand tiger and wolf divisions?"
"Kill!" shouted Cao Jun and rushed forward in a tidal wave.
Han Jun stood there, motionless.
Xue Ti was a little uneasy in his heart, he always felt that something was wrong, what
was wrong?
It was Wei Yan, it was the expression of the Han army that was wrong! There was not a trace of fear and panic on their faces!
"Zi Lie..."
Xue Ti wanted to remind Cao Xiu, but at this time, the shouts of killing shook the sky, and all the soldiers rushed up, unable to stop it.
Just when he was about to rush to Wei Yan's large array, Wei Yan swung the big knife in his hand, and saw the Han soldiers in front quickly split to both sides, and many strong buffaloes appeared in the military formation.
"What are they going to do?" Cao
Xiu and Xue Ti were just stunned, and the buffalo rushed up.
With sharp knives tied to its two horns, its tail on fire, it rushed towards the Cao soldier like crazy. And the two buffaloes pulled a thick rolling log, and on the rolling wood, there were iron nails nailed!
