Chapter 139 Cao Cao, who laughed out loud!
Under the Four Fields,
The wind blows the battle flag!
It makes a hunting sound, and at the same time it brings an irritating heat wave.
Under the scorching sun, the vegetation looked a little wilted.
However, this empty land welcomed countless soldiers today, neatly arranged, wearing strong armor, and with fierce fighting intent in their eyes.
One party strives to make contributions,
One side is to protect his wife and children.
Of course, there was also a trace of nervousness and fear in their eyes, but under the scene before them, everyone retreated without saying a word and clenched their swords.
To the north is Cao's army, and to the south is Chu's army.
Cao's army was divided into two wings, the front, middle and rear, a total of five units. The Chu army was arranged in unison, with only the left and right wings and the center army. This arrangement did not intend to leave behind.
Cao Cao's hundreds of cavalry were distributed on both wings.
Chu Feng's hundreds of cavalry were displayed in front of the central army,
In terms of numbers, Cao Jun had an absolute advantage.
At this moment, both armies were shouting. The spear and shield soldiers were in front, with their spears set up. The forest of spears was shining coldly, and the archers behind them were ready to attack.
The two sides were surprisingly unanimous, and both formed a military formation two hundred steps away. Cao Jun had no intention of taking the initiative to attack, and neither did the Chu army. After all, the attacking side needed to break the formation.
Such losses are bound to increase.
The most important thing was that from Cao Cao's point of view, his goal in this battle was Shouchun, not Chu Feng. He even suspected that Chu Feng would not take the initiative to fight.
After all, he was waiting for Shouchun reinforcements!
At this moment, the Chu army was in front of the formation.
I saw Chu Feng riding a black horse, carrying a city-breaking halberd, and wearing a strong armored battle robe. He stood in front of the formation with a solemn expression. This was the belief of the entire army and the god of war of the entire army.
At this moment, Lu Meng rode over,
He looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "My lord, there are twenty battalions of Cao's army visible from top to bottom, with about 20,000 people."
"Twenty thousand? Where are the other ten thousand?"
Chu Feng frowned instantly and asked with slightly trembling pupils.
According to various inquiries before, after Cao Jun united with Sun Ce's army, there were at least 30,000 elite troops on the battlefield here. At this moment, ten thousand people disappeared out of thin air. This made Chu Feng not worried.
"I don't know, it seems to have disappeared out of thin air!"
After Lu Meng finished speaking, he clasped his fists and said solemnly: "My lord, Cao Cao is vicious and vicious. I'm worried that these people have taken a detour and want to attack the rear of our army!"
Chu Feng frowned and did not deny it.
Cao Cao used his troops like a god, so it was possible to attack him, but he sent so many scouts, why was there no news at all? It shouldn't be!
He glanced at the neatly displayed Cao Jun in the distance,
Chu Feng tightened his grip on the halberd and said in a low voice: "The arrow is on the string and has to be fired. If we retreat now, Cao Cao will definitely cover up the attack and the three armies will be defeated."
"In this way, send all the scouting horses to investigate thirty miles away on the left and right wings for me. If there is any trouble, report it immediately."
"No!" Lu Meng nodded.
That's all for now!
After saying that, Chu Feng looked back at the three armies, but his eyes were dazzled by the blazing sun that was about to reach the sky. Seeing this, Chu Feng frowned slightly.
Looking at Cao Jun again, Chu Feng fell into deep thought.
The Northern Army was facing the sun. If they waited for the scorching sun to shine in the sky, the illumination would inevitably have an impact, especially on the crossbowmen. Shooting arrows from behind would at least reduce their strength by two points.
Although the impact is limited, it can increase the chance of winning somewhat, which is extremely rare.
"Didn't Cao Cao notice?"
Chu Feng muttered in his heart, and then felt relieved.
He understood that Cao Cao was facing the Siberian tiger against the wind and the husky against the wind. For him, this battle had a tailwind, so he was probably underestimating the enemy. This gave him a chance.
I took another look and found that it would take a quarter or two before the sun was shining brightly in the sky. In other words, the best time for the decisive battle would still have to wait a while.
Thinking of this, Chu Feng rode out and stood between the two armies.
He shouted: "Cao Cao, no matter whether we win or lose in this battle, whether we succeed or fail, you and I will go down in history and become heroes in the world."
"In this case, you can dare to go out into battle and have a conversation, and your success or failure can be spread."
Hearing the sound, Cao Cao raised his eyebrows slightly,
Guo Jia chuckled and said: "Look, my lord, Chu Feng has already begun to delay the time. I think it won't be long before the good news comes back to Shouchun!"
Cao Cao chuckled and nodded, this is really the case!
All of Chu Feng's motives were firmly grasped.
"Then do you want to go into battle?"
"What Chu Feng said is true. This battle is a battle that will be recorded in history for both sides. Since he wants to delay time, my lord just needs to accompany him!"
"In the future, this will also become a good story!"
Guo Jia chuckled, if this spreads out, wouldn't Cao Cao be strategizing and outsmarting Chu Feng?
Cao Cao nodded, and Xun You said: "General Guan, General Zhang, you two are brave enough to protect my lord."
They looked at each other and nodded in agreement.
Immediately, Cao Cao slowly stepped down from the chariot, transferred to Jueying, and with the protection of Guan Zhang and the gaze of the entire army, he arrived ten steps away from Chu Feng.
Chu Feng turned back and glanced at the sun, and immediately said loudly: "Brother Meng De, everyone in the world says that you are greedy for life and afraid of death. When I see you today, this is not a rumor!"
Cao Cao's old face darkened. This was obviously saying that he had brought General Guan and Zhang with him. He immediately chuckled and said, "Chu Feng, the world also said that you have great military skills. It is not true at first sight today!"
"Otherwise, how could you not know that a commander should focus on his subordinates? If a brave man can win, why would Xiang Yu commit suicide in Wujiang River, and how could Lu Bu flee in a hurry?"
"Xiang Yu and Lu Bu are both brave and intrepid, but the former is still able to defeat Liu Bang many times, and the latter can also kill Meng De, who escapes and almost dies tragically at his hands,"
"As for my people, Ji Ling dares to fight to the death, and Qiao Rui dares to defend to the death. All the superiors and subordinates are united. With strategy, I can capture Jiangdong in a few months, and with bravery, I can kill Sun Ce in anger."
"How can you defeat this?"
Chu Feng was just talking nonsense.
Cao Cao was also extremely cooperative. Knowing that Chu Feng wanted to delay the situation, he responded and said so, but Guan and Zhang were stunned.
Those who didn’t know thought the two came here to have a verbal spat!
To put it nicely, it’s called mutual greetings; to put it worst, it’s called mutual ridicule and contempt.
After talking for a while, Chu Feng sighed and said: "Mengde, actually this battle is not my intention. Why don't you and I just stop fighting and I will stick with you and take Yuan Shao together!"
"After Mengde takes over the world, just split the earth and separate the kings for me. How about that?"
"Let's stop here? Haha, Chu Feng, Chu Feng, do you really think that I don't know what you are fighting for?" Cao Cao laughed loudly.
Hearing the sound, Chu Feng's pupils suddenly shrank.
The palms holding the halberd couldn't help but tighten, and he muttered in his heart: "Have you been discovered?"
Just when Chu Feng was about to order an attack, Cao Cao sneered, as if he had seen through everything and said: "Chu Feng, you must be relying on Shouchun to go to war this time, right?"
Chu Feng: "???"
Chu Feng was immediately confused by these words.
Relying on Shouchun? What does it have to do with Shouchun?
Seeing Chu Feng's surprised expression, Cao Cao became even more proud and said with a smile: "Haha, Chu Feng, Chu Feng, your plan is going to fail today!"
"I have seen through your tricks a long time ago and have sent troops back for reinforcements. I am afraid that Shouchun's reinforcements have been slaughtered by Cao Ren at this moment."
