In the main tent of Cao's army on the north bank of the Wei River.

Zhong Yao and these generals stood beside the map, looking at the situation map of the two armies.

Zhong Yao asked: "Generals, how should we respond to the current situation? Do you have any countermeasures?"

Among these generals, only Han Hao was a more strategic general. He stared at the map and said: "Look, the terrain of the opponent's military camp is low. We only need to send 10,000 troops to break open the Wei River embankment. When the flood comes,

I don't believe that the Chu army can hold on even if we charge the camp."

"The water rushed to the camp..."

Zhong Youke was stunned for a moment, suddenly realized the idea, clapped his hands and shouted for a clever idea.

Han Hao was very proud of himself.

Just when Zhong Yao and these Xiliang warriors were excited and proud, a Cao soldier suddenly came in and said in surprise: "Sir, it's bad, the Chu army has now divided into two groups to attack our food hoards."

"What?"

Zhong Yao was taken aback and turned around to rush towards the map hanging on the board.

Han Hao said in surprise: "Our food and grass are stored in Jiangjindu, which is located ten miles north of our camp, and Jiangjindu is also a ferry crossing of the Wei River."

Zhong Yao looked at the map and said, "The scouts came to report in half an hour. The Chu army had just assembled. Why didn't they take a rest before they started to attack? Didn't they just finish the Battle of Xiegu? Why did they start the attack without taking a rest?"

What about the second attack?"

Jiangjindu is the place where all the rations of Zhong Yao's army are stored. For Zhong Yao's army, it is a top priority. Once the food and grass are lost, the entire army will collapse without a fight.

Zhong Yao looked at the map calmly for a long time, then sneered: "The Chu army said they were going to attack Jiang Jindu. I think they were using Jiang Jindu's banner, and they wanted to attack the small station behind our camp.

Putting our army into dire straits, how can the enemy fight against our navy on the south bank without a naval force? In addition, the grain and grass in Jiangjindu is only a transfer point, and we can completely rely on the navy to transport grain and grass from Chang'an."

Han Hao analyzed Zhong Yao's words and thought about it for a long time before he understood it. His thick eyebrows could not help but frown more tightly. He gritted his teeth and said: "Chu Army, Chu Army is really cunning. I didn't expect them to be so cunning. Who is their coach?"

"

Zhong Hui next to him added: "It's Lu Bu. Lu Bu can be said to be the first commander-in-chief of the Chu army, with both wisdom and courage?"

Zhong Yao said in surprise: "Isn't Lu Bu a martial artist? How can he have such wisdom?"

Zhong Hui thought to himself: "My father has been guarding Xi'an all year round. All the war reports about the Central Plains were obtained from the letters delivered by the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister always called Lü Bu brave and foolhardy and a waste. My father believed it and did not expect that Lü Bu was a fool."

Otherwise, he would not have been able to dominate the Central Plains for so many years."

Han Hao looked disdainful and snorted coldly and asked: "Sir, if you stay in Jiangjindu, how many defenders will there be at the station?"

"There are probably more than 5,000 horses each."

Han Hao thought for a while and then said: "If the small station is lost, our army will be cut off from its return. Fortunately, there are still five thousand soldiers in the city, which is enough to withstand a burst of enemy attacks. Hao thought that you, Sir, should personally lead an attack."

Army, go immediately to rescue the small station, and by the way, you can defeat the Chu army's sneak attack, and you will definitely greatly weaken the enemy's spirit."

Zhong Yao nodded repeatedly, deeply convinced.

After thinking for a moment, Zhong Yao asked again: "If I lead the army away, what will happen to Jiang Jindu?"

Han Hao Zhengyi said solemnly: "If you believe me, I only need to give Hao five thousand soldiers and horses, and Hao will break through the water and charge the camp. When you return victorious, Hao will dedicate Lu Bu's head to you."

Han Hao is confident and determined to win.

Zhong Yao was overjoyed and readily agreed to Han Hao's plan.

At that moment, Zhong Yao left 5,000 soldiers and horses for Han Hao to go to Jiangjin to fight the flood, while he himself led an army of 50,000 troops and marched towards the small station.

Jiangjin is five miles away.

In the dense forest, Zang Ba held a piece of wild grass in the corner of his mouth, his razor-like gaze passed through the layers of leaves, and he stared at the narrow dirt road along the water like an eagle.

"Pa" Zang Ba touched it suddenly, and it turned out to be a long snake. A huge long snake was held in Zang Ba's hand.

Zang Ba hurriedly shook off the snake, then flicked the spear in his hand and cut the snake into two pieces. "Damn it, it's already autumn, and there's still such a big snake out and about."

Zang Ba, who grew up in the Central Plains, quickly adapted to the climate of Xiliang, but the only thing that made it difficult for him to adapt was the snakes that were everywhere.

It is common for the soldiers who live in Xiliang to do internships because they have lived here since they were young.

Having lived in Xiliang for a long time, they seem to have developed immunity to snakes and have long been accustomed to the pain of being bitten by snakes.

In the dense forest, Zang Ba and his five thousand soldiers had been lying in wait for two whole hours.

There are also a thousand soldiers who are currently in Jiangjin. They are showing off their banners and flags to cover up the sun, pretending to be a huge army and planning to capture the ferry with a large army.

This is the strategy Lu Bu and Xu Shu discussed.

With a thousand troops and horses, he pretended to attack Jiangjindu, and ordered Zang Ba to lead the main force of 5,000 to ambush in the mountains and forests on the road he must pass. However, after Zang Ba successfully inserted his army into the rear of Cao's army, he temporarily changed the plan.

After making adjustments, he not only had to defeat the enemy reinforcements, but also had to hide from Jiang Jindu.

Zang Ba has absolute self-confidence. Although Han Hao is brave, they have no choice. When they know that the rear is in danger, they will rush to rescue without hesitation. Moreover, this is the only way for Zang Ba to wash away his shame.

Chance.

Encircling a point to mobilize reinforcements was a new combat method taught to these ancient generals by Nie Zefeng.

Time passed by and the sun was setting in the west. Zang Ba stared at the narrow path.

There was still no trace of Cao Bing on the dirt road along the water. Apart from the chirping of birds and the sound of rolling water, everything was still so quiet.

The five thousand soldiers hidden in the forest were still heartbroken and did not feel anxious at all.

After the Battle of Xiegu, they followed Zang Ba and fought in the north and south. The five thousand men and horses who survived life and death can be said to have developed a courageous military spirit. They were not afraid of the powerful enemy of Cao Jun, and they were even more courageous.

What's more, Cao Jun was defeated by others.

No one doubts the strength of Zang Ba and his legion and their strength. Everyone has only one belief in their hearts, and that is to wait patiently.

The setting sun is setting in the west, and the golden afterglow shines on the dense forest, passing through the layers of leaves, and scattering fine pieces of golden color on the ground.

Just when Zang Ba was bored, suddenly Zang Ba's keen perception allowed him to hear some kind of unusual movement among the birdsong and insects.

Zang Bateng stood up and glanced at the captain beside him.

The captain realized what he was doing, so he lay down on the ground and put his ear to the wet ground to listen.

After listening for a long time, the captain jumped up and shouted excitedly: "General, a large number of troops are coming this way, at least more than 5,000 troops."

The ability of soldiers who have been fighting all year round to judge the enemy is quite powerful. Not only can they hear the direction in which the enemy is coming, but they can also hear the number.

"There are more than 5,000 troops. It seems that Cao Jun saw our intention this time, but they forgot that we are the main force of the attack from the east and west directions. Very good. Don't leave once you come."

Zang Ba sneered, and the murderous aura around him was already billowing.

The soldiers on the left and right were infected by Yan Liang's killing power, and their hearts, as calm as water, began to beat faster in the blink of an eye, and their blood for battle was burning crazily.

"Send the order, Cao's army is approaching, and the whole army is ready to fight!" Zang Ba shouted with a spear in his hand.

"The general has orders, prepare to fight"

"Ready to fight"

The whispers were like ripples, spreading down layer by layer. In an instant, all the five thousand soldiers were tensed up and tightly grasped the swords and guns in their hands.

The strange sound in his ears became heavier and heavier. It was the sound of rapid footsteps and the sound of weapons rubbing against each other.

Under the gaze of a pair of bloodthirsty eyes, a team of Cao Jun appeared in the field of vision.

Those soldiers with bright armor and Cao Jun wearing iron armor hurriedly ran past the dirt road outside the dense forest.

Zang Ba took a quick look and found that there were indeed five thousand men and horses.

Cao Jun, who was marching in a hurry, only focused on Jiang Jindu's advance, and was completely unaware that there were countless bloodshot eyes in the dense forest, staring at them like hungry beasts.

A sneer flashed across Zang Ba's lips, and his eyes, like those of the god of death, quietly watched Cao Bing pass by.

The sharp eyes suddenly moved slightly.

But I saw an enemy general passing by an enemy group with a huge battle flag. The enemy general was majestic, with protruding blue eyes. He was carrying a broadsword, and behind his horse were a long bow and a quiver.

The captain next to him pointed at the general and said, "General, that is Han Hao, the leader of the army."

After discovering the enemy's leader, Zang Ba was not in a hurry to attack and continued to stand still. He was waiting for all of Cao's troops to enter the ambush circle he had carefully laid without any precautions.

In a short time, all the 5,000-strong Long Snake Barbarians were trapped in the net.

The time has come.

"Pooh--"

Zang Ba spat out the weeds in his mouth, turned his majestic body on his horse, pointed his spear in front of him, and said sternly: "Soldiers, my Xiliang brothers, go out with my generals to kill, let these Cao soldiers have a good look.

Our Chu army is so powerful, let us wash away our shame with the blood of our enemies!"

When the order was given, Zang Ba rode his horse like lightning, like a black lightning, to kill the general first.

A loud horn sounded immediately, and the five thousand warriors who were ambushed in the forest rushed out of the forest screaming like wild beasts coming out of their cages.

Angry shouts of killing rose into the sky, and countless birds flew away in fright. The soldiers rushed out of the dense forest like arrows, and pounced on the frightened Cao soldiers like a pack of hungry wolves.

Five thousand of Cao's troops had been on the road for half a day. They were already physically exhausted, but now they were stunned in an instant, and their spirits were even more severely damaged.

Before Cao's soldiers, who were physically and mentally damaged, could react, the bright blades of the Chu army in the forest had already struck at their heads.

The screams suddenly started.
