After hearing Huangfu Chaobo’s words, everyone who had just rushed back to the camp was in deep thought. After a while, Zhao Yun said: "Master, since the army has already withdrawn to the camp, Xu Rong will see it tomorrow. The attack on my base has begun. Now that the offensive and defensive is swapped, I should wait for early preparations."

Huangfu Chaobo nodded. There is no other way. With the support of Dong Zhuojun's 50,000 troops, especially the 20,000 cavalry troops, plus the tens of thousands of troops in Hedong, the enemy's troops have greatly increased. And now he has less than one hundred thousand troops, plus the back road is blocked, the food road is cut off, offensive and defensive are different, that is for sure.

"Don't worry, Zilong, we are already starting to prepare, and that is, send all the more injured soldiers in the camp to Wenxi, so as not to have time to transfer." Huangfu Chaobo nodded and replied, and then again. Suddenly thinking of the wounded soldier, he arranged again.

"Yes, these must be prepared early," Pang Tong nodded aside: "However, there is one more thing, the general needs to pay attention to, since Dong Zhuojun cavalry has returned to Anyi, then we must stop raising food and grass around Anyi. Once the soldiers and horses that have gone out are discovered by Dong Zhuo’s cavalry, there is basically no return.”

Su Zhi also opened the mouth and said: "It is not feasible to raise grain and grass around Anyi, but there is no problem with the territory next to Wenxi. Moreover, these will definitely reach Xu Rong's ears. By then, will he send troops to cross the river or No, it's probably in a dilemma."

When several people heard it, their eyes lit up, yes, they induced Xu Rong to divide the troops.

Now the Sizhou Army has two camps in Hedong, one is the large camp on the Anyi side, and the other is the Wenxi county town that Zhao Yun captured a few days ago, and the two places are connected by floating bridges on both sides of the river. Both bridges are under control. But if He Dongjun and Dong Zhuojun wanted to cross the river, they were not as convenient as Sizhoujun.

It is conceivable that if there is a rumor that the Sizhou army is collecting food and grass around Wenxi, Xu Rong’s cavalry will take care of it or not. If it doesn’t matter, wait until the Sizhou army has collected enough food and grass to support Luoyang reinforcements from next year. If it comes, the plan this time will be empty.

But if you manage it, the 20,000 cavalry will definitely be difficult to arrange. You can divide the troops. If you are afraid that each will be broken, don't divide the troops. If you can control this side, you can't control the other side.

However, the life of the Sizhou army is not easy now. The 120,000 army, except for the five thousand family soldiers who were taken away by Sima Lang and others, has lost nearly 10,000 people in the war from Jiguan to Hedong. There were about 10,000 guards from Jiguan to Lengkou's defensive platoon. These people were gone except for 5,000 in Dongyuan, and the five thousand troops in Dongyuan could not count on it.

In addition, Zhao Yun also lost two thousand under Wenxi City, and if Su Zhibu's 30,000 people were lucky, it would be pretty good to be able to return halfway. Counting this down, the 120,000 army has only about 80,000 left, plus the artisan Minzhuang now has more than 40,000, and the thousands of prisoners along the way are now only more than 5,000.

If we send all the wounded to Wenxi, there will only be 65,000 soldiers in the camp, including 8,000 cavalry and 57,000 infantry.

Thinking of this, Huangfu Chaobo said to Su: "General Su, today you will go to Wenxi with 15,000 lightly and severely wounded soldiers, and replace all of Wenxi’s guards back to the base camp. Then you will go back to the camp. Twenty thousand soldiers and captives were selected, and all of them were brought to Wenxi to be transferred to soldiers. These 35,000 soldiers were trained into seven soldiers and horses. They were trained in Wenxi, and by the way they raised the wrong food and grass for the army."

Su Zhi immediately got up and took the order. When he was about to leave, he heard Huangfu Chaobo say again: "However, what General Su should pay attention to is that the wrong food is not robbed, but purchased from various territories. If Hedong is still under the rule of our company, we cannot control it this time. Sooner or later, Jiang Pei will be tortured by canonical punishment, so Hedong’s popular support cannot be lost."

Now that the strategy has been arranged, the next thing is to do their own things and settle their duties.

Su Zhi led the wounded soldiers and the selected Minzhuang prisoners hurried to Wenxi. He must integrate these 35,000 soldiers and horses in the shortest possible time, so that when they withdraw later, at least not Let these soldiers collapse at once.

The generals who stayed behind in the camp are also busy preparing for the war that will begin tomorrow.

On the other hand, Huangfu Chaobo and Pang Tong are still carefully discussing some details of the retreat, and the contact with Luoyang is also ongoing. As the lord of a state, Huangfu Chaobo now understands that he has personally led the troops on the expedition. What an unreliable thing.

As everyone expected, Xu Rong mobilized his army to attack the Sizhou army camp on the second day. In addition to Dong Zhuo’s 30,000 infantrymen, there were nearly 80,000 infantrymen of the Hedong Army. As for the more than 20,000 cavalrymen, their role was to cruise around the battlefield to prevent the Sizhou Army’s cavalry from leaving the camp. The army attacking the camp.

With the sound of the horns and war drums, Anyi, which had been quiet for several days, sounded a terrifying killing shout. However, this time it was not under the city of Anyi, but at the Sizhou army camp.

After several days of reinforcement, although the Sizhou army was not as solid as a rock and as stable as Mount Tai, the Sizhou army could not be attacked so easily.

Of course, neither Xu Rong nor Jiang Pei had any idea of ​​taking the Sizhou army camp in two or three days. There is no other skill for tackling tough problems, but only human lives. What's more, under Jiang Shan's persuasion, Jiang Pei also had the idea of ​​using the Sizhou army camp to train for himself a few elite soldiers.

Just as at the beginning, Jiang Shan ordered Jiang Jian and Jiang Jian to train thousands of elites. Now Jiang Jian has been arranged to lead a school of cavalry, and the training of the troops has been returned to Jiang Pei's top general Jiang Jian.

Under the command of Xu Rong, an army of more than 100,000 launched a fierce attack towards the camp, but although the attack was swift and violent, it was orderly. The coordination between the various ministries was very good, making the generals of Pang Tong in the camp amazed. The foreign generals really couldn't imagine that the command of the Hedong army was so smooth, during which Pang Tong used the term "like an arm and a finger" more than once.

Looking at this situation, Huangfu Chaobo couldn't help but regret. He really shouldn't let Xu Rong go, but now he finally tasted the bitter fruit. At the same time, he was also secretly deciding that he must bring this general talent into his command, even if it was like Zhuge Liang's seven captures.
