Chapter 682

Both Zhuge Liang and Xie Xuan suggested that Cao Cao of Jincheng should do it first, after all, he should be in the Mongolian army.Once Cao Cao takes action, the leaders of the Western Regions in the Mongolian army will definitely turn against each other.

In terms of military strength, Mongolian soldiers and horses originally had 15 soldiers and horses. When they competed with Zhao Yun for the camp, they lost more than 1 soldiers and left 13 soldiers. Yizhou had 23 soldiers and horses, totaling [-].

On Cao Cao's side, there are white horse righteous followers and tiger and leopard cavalry, as well as 3 ordinary cavalry, [-] elite infantry, plus Xiahoudun, Xiahouyuan came to aid [-] elites from Bingzhou, a total of [-] elites, and Han Suixi There are also [-] to [-] strong soldiers selected from the Liang army, and there are also [-] soldiers and horses.

On Li Xianzhong's side, there are 15 soldiers and horses, adding up to [-] troops.

However, in the Mongolian army, there are about 5 soldiers and horses from the countries in the Western Regions, most of whom are willing to defect, and there are [-] horses if there are fewer.

In this way, there are 20 Han troops and 18 Mongolian and Yizhou allied forces.There is a slight advantage in military strength, but the soldiers and horses of the countries in the Western Regions suddenly turned against each other, and the Mongolian army disintegrated from within, which is of great significance, but its role cannot be calculated by the normal number of troops.

After Zhuge Liang's analysis, Li Xianzhong caressed Hu and said: "Kongming is right. Once Governor Cao takes the initiative to send troops, relying on the strength of the Western Regions to cooperate internally and externally, General Cao's troops will definitely have the upper hand, and Yizhou's troops will definitely not sit idly by." Regardless, our army can attack the Yizhou camp at this time!"

"Today the moon and stars are rare, so it's suitable for lighting the lanterns. I will light the lanterns to inform Governor Cao that General Gao is in Jincheng. When he sees him, he will know that our army has arrived!" Cao Cao said, looking at the sky.

Sure enough, the moon and stars were scarce that night, and Zhuge Liang released dozens of Kongming lanterns in the camp.The lights flew into the sky and soon attracted the attention of a large number of soldiers.

Under the city of Jincheng, in the large tent of the Tuo Lei Chinese Army, soldiers quickly walked in, cupped their hands and said, "I want to report to the prince, that weird thing appeared again in the Son of Heaven, this time there are dozens of them!"

"What?" Tuo Lei heard, and hurried out of the camp to watch, only to see dozens of Kongming lanterns rising into the sky in the sky, emitting a faint light, like stars in the sky.

At this moment, Sima Yi strode over and said with a gloomy face: "Prince Tuolei, the thing in the sky rose from the camp of the Eastern Han army. The last time it was exactly the same as this one, it must be the Han army who informed Cao Cao." Signal!"

Tuo Lei suddenly realized: "The last time we competed with Wen Hou, we shot him down by accident and destroyed the Han army's report. That's why Gao Siji rushed to the camp alone and went to Jincheng to report the report!"

Zhebie hurriedly said: "Prince, don't worry, watch me shoot all of these down, and see how Li Xianzhong still communicates with Cao Cao! Maybe we can use this to know the movements of the Han army!"

After saying that, Zhebie bent his bow and set up an arrow, and then shot at the Kongming lantern.

Sima Yi sighed and said, "It's useless. Last time the wind was from the southeast, and the lamp was blowing in the direction of Jincheng. There might be information on it, but it turned into ashes when shot down. But this time, the lamp went straight into the sky. As long as Cao Cao sees the hovering in the sky, he will know what it means, there must be no information we want on it, even if it is shot down, it will definitely be burned!"

"How do you know if you don't try?" Zhebe took arrows one by one, and kept shooting at the Kongming lanterns. The Kongming lanterns fell from the sky, and the Mongolian soldiers went to pick them up, but they were all burned.Some of them didn't even have time to pick them up, and fell on top of the tent, setting the tent on fire.

Seeing this situation, Tuo Lei stretched out his hand to stop Zhebie and said, "Okay Zhebie, the recording is useless and useless. The only thing we can do now is to guard against death and be careful!"

Tuo Lei turned around and said to Sima Yi: "Mr. Sima, the Han army from the east has arrived, you must be careful!"

"Prince, don't worry, our army has set up a camp to stop it, and we will keep it safe!" Sima Yi nodded.

At this time, in Jincheng, in front of the Dudu's Mansion, Cao Cao stood with all the generals, and Gao Siji said: "Look, Dudu, that lamp is called Kongming Lantern. It was created by Zhuge Kongming in our army. It can be lifted into the sky with the light." , this lamp must have been placed by Kong Ming to notify us of the signal!"

"Oh? There is such a genius who can make dead things fly into the sky, but how can we get this lamp from far away in the sky?" Cao Cao's eyes were full of surprise.

Gao Siji stretched out his hand to the sky, felt the wind direction and pondered for a while and said: "The last time I rushed to the camp, Kong Ming also sent this light to inform me that I would not take any risks. It contained important information, and according to the wind direction, you can fall into the camp." Jincheng, unfortunately, was shot down by the Mongols and fell short.”

"Ah? Didn't the information on it have been known by the Mongols?" Pound asked anxiously with his eyes wide open.

Gao Siji shook his head and smiled: "No, once the lamp is shot, it will burn, so the information on it will be burned. If it is not damaged, it will fall down when the lamp oil inside is exhausted, and it will not be charged immediately. will burn."

Cao Cao looked at the Kongming Lanterns in the sky and said, "So, these lanterns will fall into the Golden City? Come here, order the soldiers to go to various places in the city to collect the Kongming Lanterns."

"No need for the governor. Last time the wind was from the southeast, so the Kongming Lantern would fall into Jincheng. But tonight the weather is calm, so the Kongming Lantern will not fall into Jincheng. According to my guess, this is Kongming's signal, telling us that Li Dudu is coming Already!" Gao Siji said, cupping his hands.

Cao Cao nodded his head and pondered: "Since Dudu Li is here, I see that the Yizhou soldiers and horse camps outside the city are half empty, which means that half of the Yizhou soldiers and horses are going to stop them. I also stayed in Jincheng for a while. There is a dangerous place in the distance, and most of the Yizhou soldiers and horses are blocked there!"

Everyone followed Cao Cao into the mansion. Cao Cao looked at Gao Siji with a solemn expression and said, "General Gao, are you sure that most of the leaders of the Western Regions in the Mongolian army have decided to defect?"

Gao Siji cupped his hands and said: "This matter is absolutely true, and the general dares to guarantee it with his life!"

"Okay!" Cao Cao nodded and said, "Most of Li Xianzhong's soldiers and horses were intercepted by Yizhou soldiers and horses. In this case, only our army takes the initiative. I will decide to go out of the city tomorrow to face the Mongolian soldiers and horses. What do you think?"

All the generals under his command were overjoyed, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Pang De, Xiahoudun, Xiahouyuan, Li Yuanfang, Cao Xiao, Xiahoulan and other generals all joined hands to fight.

Cao Cao stroked his beard and smiled: "Haha, you generals are full of fighting spirit, why should our army not be able to win?"

Cao Cao said in a deep voice, "All generals, listen to your orders!"

"The last general is here!" All the generals stepped out, ready to accept the transfer order.

"Ma Chao, tomorrow you will lead the tiger and leopard cavalry as the main force, and cooperate with the god-armed crossbowmen to fight out of the city!" Cao Cao ordered.

"No!" Ma Chao bowed his hands and accepted the order.

Cao Cao warned: "Although the leaders of the Western Regions turned their backs, they must be prepared. Tomorrow our army will fight out. If the Mongolian army is in order, Meng Qi, you retreat quickly and don't want to fight!"

"The last general knows!" Ma Chao nodded. Although he was eager for revenge, he also knew the priorities. If the soldiers and horses of the countries in the Western Regions did not turn against him, he would only end up in annihilation if he continued to fight.

Cao Cao took out a token and continued to order: "Zhao Yun listens!"

"The end is here!"

Cao Cao threw the name tag to Zhao Yun, Zhao Yun stretched out his hand to catch it, and heard Cao Cao arrange: "When the Mongolian army is in chaos, you lead the white horses to fight out, and accompany Meng Qi's tiger and leopard cavalry!"

"Promise!" Zhao Yun bowed his hands and took the command. In the battle a month ago, Baima Yicong lost thousands of men. However, after a month of replenishment and selection of cavalry from the army, Baima Yicong has been replenished to full strength.

"Pang Degao Siji listen to the order!" Cao Cao took out two more tokens, and ordered: "You two each lead five thousand elite cavalry, wait for Zilong, Meng Qi to kill the Mongolian army, and then go out from the left and right side doors. Both sides harass the Mongol army and shoot them with arrows!"

"No!" The two of them handed over their hands and accepted the order!
"Li Yuanfang, Xiahou Dun listens to the order!"

"The end is here!"

"When the Mongolian army is in chaos, when the Mongolian army is in chaos, the two of you will lead [-] infantry troops to enter the Mongolian army from the left and right wings!" Cao Cao ordered.

"promise!"

Xia Houyuan asked suspiciously: "Captain, there are still [-] infantry, why? Why didn't you give the last general a task?"

Cao Cao said in a deep voice: "The Mongolian army and Yizhou soldiers and horses are united. If the Mongolian army is in chaos, the Yizhou soldiers and horses will definitely not sit idly by. When the Yizhou soldiers and horses come to help, you lead the infantry to intercept them!
By the way, Zilong, if the situation in the Mongolian army is chaotic, you can wait for the opportunity to go out. Lu Bu is still in the Yizhou army. If he enters our army, our infantry will not be able to stop him. Then you are responsible for stopping him and don't let him charge Disrupt our army formation! "

"Don't worry, governor, I will always pay attention to Lu Bu's movements!" Zhao Yun nodded.

"Okay, go down and prepare, tomorrow will be a tough battle!" Cao Cao waved his hand, signaling the generals to leave.

At the same time, in the Mongolian army, Wang Xuance secretly met with all the leaders of the Western Regions, reminding them that Cao Cao might go out to fight in the city tomorrow, and let them prepare early.

In the western part of summer, the dawn is very early, but at the end of Yinshi, the sky is already slightly bright.

At this time, the Mongolian soldiers outside the city hadn't gotten up yet, but despite this, the Mongolian army camp was still very tightly defended.However, within the range of the camps of the countries in the Western Regions, the soldiers of the Western Regions who have decided to turn against them have already woken up, their weapons are always on their bodies, and each of them is holding a white cloth in their hands. If the Han army in the Golden City breaks out, they will die Tied a white cloth on his body, and took the opportunity to slash the butcher's knife at the Mongols.

But at this moment in Jincheng City, behind the city gate, Ma Chao has led the tigers and leopards to wait under the city, and behind them are the god-armed crossbowmen.

Under the protection of his personal guards, Cao Cao climbed to the top of the city, facing the inner gate of the city, and waved his flag: "Open the gate and kill the enemy!"

creak!creak!
The gate of Jincheng opened quickly, and the tiger and leopard cavalry rushed out in an instant, and soon formed a formation outside the city. Five thousand iron cavalry were divided into ten teams, each with a hundred cavalry, and the god-armed crossbowmen followed closely behind.

"Follow me!" Ma Chao shouted coldly, and rushed towards the Mongolian army camp with a dragon cavalry gun in his hand.

Under the protection of the shield soldiers, the crossbowmen with the god arm followed closely, preparing to support the tiger and leopard cavalry.

In the city, Zhao Yun led Baima Yicong to fight against the enemy. As long as there was chaos in the Mongolian army, he would lead Baima Yicong to fight out.
