Cao Cao's words made Xi Zhicai sigh uncontrollably again. He also knew this clearly, but it was precisely because of this that he felt regretful.

Patting Xi Zhicai's shoulder, Cao Cao looked into the distance and said with a smile, "Look, Lu Bu's troops are not weak, as long as they attract more troops in Li Jing's rear, then We have the opportunity to repel Li Jing from the front."

Xi Zhicai nodded silently, but there were some doubts in his heart.He has followed Cao Cao for many years. Over the years, he has had countless battles with Liu Rui. Every time they win, they will be ruthlessly crushed by Liu Rui.

Thinking about it carefully, in many cases, it is not because his Xi Zhicai's strategy is not subtle enough, nor is it because Cao Cao's army is too weak, but because he Xi Zhicai and Cao Cao are always unable to predict what Liu Rui will do next. action.

However, Liu Rui's whimsical actions can become the key point in determining the outcome of the war, which has repeatedly frustrated Cao Cao and Xi Zhicai.

At this moment, Xi Zhicai couldn't help but be a little worried. Although he couldn't guess whether Liu Rui still had a backer, he knew subconsciously that Liu Rui's army could never just wait to die like this.

Thinking of this, Xi Zhicai hurriedly bowed to Cao Cao and said, "My lord, Jiangdong's navy and our navy are still in the river, so the so-called lion fighting the rabbit also uses all our strength, the top priority, we should gather all our strength. , to defeat Li Jing's army in one fell swoop, so as not to have too many dreams at night!"

Hearing Xi Zhicai's words, Cao Cao asked hesitantly, "Zhicai, what are you worried about? Now we and Li Jing's troops have maintained a stalemate, as long as we persevere, victory will definitely be won. It belongs to us, if the navy is mobilized, once Liu Rui's navy takes the opportunity to attack our navy camp, then it will be..."

"My lord, so this plan is still the conspiracy you mentioned before. Now the battle on this road is reaching the most critical diners. If Liu Rui leaves it alone, then we will take the opportunity to destroy Li Jing's army, but if he Liu Rui dares to When the time comes..." Xi Zhicai's eyes flickered, staring at Cao Cao.

Cao Cao was stunned, but after a while, he clapped his hands and laughed loudly: "Exactly! Exactly! Zhicai is indeed my lucky star, how could I forget this! Once Liu Rui attacked, When Zhou Gongjin commands the navy, there is nothing to be afraid of. As long as our fireboat rushes up, Liu Rui's navy will become a pile of dead wood. When our navy is returning to help here, he will. Li Jing's army of [-] people will also be buried with him!"

"Master is wise!" Seeing Cao Cao's many joints in the same place, Xi Zhicai smiled and said: "Master, please give Zhou Gongjin an order, I believe that Zhou Gongjin will not give up such a good opportunity!"

Cao Cao nodded heavily, and without any hesitation, let Xi Zhicai handle the matter with full authority, and Cao Cao's eyes returned to the two sides at the moment of war.

Just as he was about to go to the front line to boost his morale, he saw Sun Ce hurried over not far away.

As soon as he saw Sun Ce, Cao Cao laughed and said, "Bo Fu, you are a step too late!"

Sun Ce shook his head and smiled, "I just happened to meet Zhicai when I came here, but he told me everything!"

"Haha, it's a pity that there is no fine wine here. Otherwise, you must have a hard drink with Brother Bofu!" Cao Cao laughed.

Sun Ce also laughed and said: "Meng De, let's go to the front to take a look, to stabilize the hearts of the soldiers, as long as we continue to maintain the stalemate with Li Jing, when the navy arrives, he will let Li Jing. It's hard to fly!"

Cao Cao nodded heavily, and the two chatted for a while, and then they joined hands to the front line to boost morale.

Seeing that Cao Cao and Sun Ce were in front of the battle in person, the entire Cao army exploded with incredible power for a period of time.

This scene made Li Jing and others feel a little incredible.

At this moment, Li Jing was summoning Li Cunxiao and Li Ruohai to discuss the current countermeasures.

"Li Shuai, I almost broke through Cao's army just now, why did we take a defensive posture halfway through?" Li Cunxiao said with some dissatisfaction, while Li Ruohai on the side was also full of doubts.

Li Jing said with a smile; "Cao Cao arranged an ambush behind us, and is now fighting against us in the rear. It is for this reason that I dispatched your troops and let the left and right flanks take the defensive!"

"Who dares to be so bold?" Li Cunxiao and Li Ruohai looked at each other, puzzled.

"It's Lu Fengxian. This man ambushed fifty thousand soldiers in the valley behind us. When we fought against Cao Cao before, I saw that Cao Cao wanted to retreat, but he was suppressed so badly by the two of you that he never succeeded in retreating. Now that I think about it, Cao Cao at that time probably wanted to lure us to the mountains ahead!" Li Jing smiled and said again; "It's just that if Cao Cao retreated at that time, I'm afraid we would have completely defeated him. Cao Mengde is gone!"

Li Cunxiao and Li Ruohai were both a little regretful, and Li Cunxiao bowed to Li Jing and said, "Li Shuai, what should we do now? We can't just be dragged by the other party like this!"

Li Jing shook his head and said, "Drag? As long as we drag on, the more we drag, the more powerful it will be for us!"

Seeing Li Cunxiao and Li Ruohai's puzzled eyes, Li Jing said with a smile, "Just now, there has been news from the shore of the lord, and you can help us at any time. The more prepared you are, when our navy is fully equipped, it will be time to defeat Cao Cao and Sun Ce's navy in one fell swoop, and it will be time for us to fight back in the land battle!"

"Hey! I just said that Li Shuai is not a cowardly person, how could he be so cautious and defensive!" Hearing Li Jing's words, Li Cunxiao couldn't help laughing.

After a pause, Li Cunxiao said again: "But now we are on the defensive, but it is not impossible to kill the enemy. In the past, military advisors Fengxiao and Kong Ming once taught me a formation method, which is specially used for defense. Li Shuai might as well see if it works!"

After that, Li Cunxiao took out the pen and paper and drew a concave and convex formation, and Li Jing just glanced at it and couldn't help but smile: "Okay! This formation has both offense and defense, and it is the most suitable for us now. In this situation, General Cunxiao, after this battle is over, you should take the lead!"

Li Cunxiao was stunned for a moment, this formation was given to him by Guo Jia and Professor Zhuge Liang. If it was about merit, he probably wouldn't be able to get Li Cunxiao's turn. However, Li Jing's words made Li Cunxiao very happy. Say more.

970: Zhou Yu rushes to the rescue

After Li Jing received Li Cunxiao's prompt, he stopped talking, and instead looked at the pattern with a focused expression.

It didn't take long for orders to be issued from Li Jing's central tent.

And the entire Li Jing's army began to change positions rapidly. In a short period of time, a huge circular formation appeared in front of Cao Cao and Lu Bu.

It's just that in this circle, there are more concave and convex borders, and the shield players in the team of Li Jing's army constitute the strongest defense of this border.

Seeing Li Jing's army changing formation, Cao Cao and Sun Ce, who were boosting morale on the front line, couldn't help but glance at each other.

"Bo Fu, Li Jing has already felt the pressure after thinking about it. He looks like he is now, but he is ready to make a stubborn attitude!" Cao Cao couldn't help laughing.

Sun Ce next to him also laughed loudly: "Meng De, isn't this what you and I want to see? How can Li Jing be defensive even if he is strict? Wait until Gong Jin's navy arrives. Let's see what else Li Jing has used to block our army?"

"I hope that Liu Rui's navy will be able to fight!" Cao Cao frowned, and then he said, "Even if we eliminate Li Jing now, Liu Rui has the navy and Jiangxia City, so he can still take it easy in the future. But if Liu Rui's navy is finished, Li Jing's army will play along with him, and Yue Fei's army in Jiangxia City will fall into a lonely place. When the logistics are cut off, Liu Rui's army will be completely destroyed. It's over!"

Hearing Cao Cao's words, Sun Ce said with a smile on his face: "Don't worry, Meng De, Gong Jin has already made complete preparations. With the desperate attack of your cargo ships, plus my Jiangdong Navy Liu Rui's strength is definitely not his opponent!"

Cao Cao nodded, and when he was about to say a few rhetoric again, Sun Ce said again: "Also, did Brother Meng De forget our previous arrangement?"

"Arrangement?" Cao Cao was stunned and couldn't help but wonder.

Sun Ce laughed loudly and said, "Brother Meng De is confused, you have Lu Fengxian's ambush here, did you forget that my Jiangdong Navy has already arranged a back-up strategy?"

"What Bo Fu said, is he talking about Lu Meng and Lu Ziming?" Cao Cao suddenly woke up, and even couldn't help asking each other.

Sun Ce nodded heavily, and then laughed loudly: "When I came today, Ziming's side was ready and ready to leave at any time. If Liu Rui doesn't go out, it's fine, then we'll let him go. He Liu Rui watched Li Jing's army be surrounded and wiped out by us, if he Liu Rui sent troops, hehe..."

Cao Cao couldn't help but sneer. When they deployed the three-way army, they all ambush their backers, but later they mobilized Lu Bu to the side of Cao Cao's army, and Liu Bei's side was relying on the Chibi army. The battalion delayed Yue Fei's men.

Up to now, the land battle on Cao Cao's side and the water battle on Zhou Yu's side seem to have become the center of the war.

These two lines of troops and horses, any progress made along the way, the effect produced at that time will be chained.Just like the Cao Cao army at the moment, once Li Jing's troops are defeated, Liu Rui's naval camp and Jiangxia City will face the threat of Cao Cao and Sun Ce. At that time, I am afraid it will not be so simple.
