When the three thousand elite soldiers saw their general roaring like this, they were extremely excited. It seemed as if they had divine help and were sure to win. Suddenly, they became excited and shouted.
The morale of Cao's army was extremely high.
Further to the rear, Cao Ren led five thousand elite troops in pursuit. He was well prepared. Once Niu Jin encountered an ambush in front, he would immediately lead his troops to advance to support Niu Jin.[
However, when Cao Ren heard the roar from ahead, his heart finally relaxed.
"Although he is a little reckless, he can still be regarded as a general. Presumably, he has calmed down a little at this time. As long as he is not blind and reckless, he will not encounter unexpected events when he is ambushed. If he evolves well, he may be bullish in front of him.
Fight Lu Su's ambush army, and I reinforce it. I can defeat Lu Su and win the war. Then I can take advantage of the situation and invade the new wilderness and destroy Lu Su."
Cao Ren thought with a smile in his heart.
"Don't make any noise, keep your head down and move quickly." Cao Ren yelled.
The soldiers did not promise, but they speeded up as promised.
With Lu Su in front and Niu Jin in the middle, Cao Ren's last three armies kept marching toward the south, quickly covering a distance of five miles. This distance was still about ** miles from Xinye City.
Nearby, there is a place called Bowangpo, with Funiu Mountain to the north, Yinshan Mountain to the south, and Baihe River to the west. The terrain is dangerous. It is a Shangshang area for soldiers to ambush.
Lu Su once considered this place, but because Cao Ren's jurisdiction was in Wancheng, Wancheng belonged to Nanyang County and was also part of Jingzhou.
Cao Ren is a famous general today. When he attacks Xinye, he will definitely focus on studying the terrain of Xinye. Bowang Slope is a good place for an ambush, and Cao Ren must also know it.
So Lu Su gave up this place and chose a place called Lingxia, which was far away from Bowang Slope and the terrain was also far worse than Bowang Slope, and ambush the army.
The terrain of this place is relatively ordinary. Even if it is slightly dangerous, it will not alert anyone, and an ambush attack can be carried out unexpectedly.
This was Lu Su's choice, very low-key.
At this moment, in a mountain forest under the mausoleum, Zuo Sima, who was ordered to pass the order, entered and joined the army general in charge of the ambush.
"General Yu, the general has ordered that after you let the general go, you also let go of Niu Jin who is responsible for the pursuit, and focus on attacking Cao Ren who is following up."
Zuo Sima faced this General Yu and issued Lu Su's order.
"This makes it much more difficult to ambush Cao Ren." General Yu failed to understand the beauty of Lu Su's plan and lost his voice.
"General, you can rest assured about this." Zuo Sima heard this and explained what Lu Su meant.
Suddenly, there was no longer any doubt in the general's mind. He nodded and said, "Okay, since the general guesses so, let's beat Cao Ren."
Then beat Cao Ren. This second half is really domineering.[
In this way, General Yu and Zuo Sima laid an ambush and waited until Lu Su, Niu Jin, and Cao Ren arrived.
While waiting, Lu Su's army took the lead in entering. At this moment, the sky had already dawned, and it could be seen very clearly.
"Don't even look to the side, let's go." Lu Su ordered as he led his troops passing by.
Of course he knew that this was where he was ambushing, and therefore, he was extremely cautious. When the soldiers heard this, they immediately passed by without squinting their eyes, without even looking at the mausoleum next to them.
Very smoothly, Lu Su passed by.
Not long after, the elite Xiao Sanqian troops of Cao Jun led by Niu Jin arrived. The quality of Cao Jun was perfectly demonstrated at this moment.
Although Lu Su's army became increasingly elite, it was slightly inferior to Cao's army. Because they were marching in a hurry, Niu Jin's army was getting closer and closer.
In terms of foot strength, Lu Su's elite soldiers were quite inferior.
