Lin Zhe was a little irritable. The sudden attack of Lu Bu's army made many of his plans come to nothing.
Previously, Jian Yong was asked to lead troops to harass Lu Bu's army. The idea was that when Lu Bu attacked the city, his troops were severely damaged, and he was unaware of the loss of Xiaopei, Jian Yong could lure the enemy in this way, which would have a miraculous effect.
But it was only the second day, and Lu Bu's vanguard camp had already arrived. It was impossible for him to divide his troops and leave the city!
If we divide our troops, we don't even need Lu Bu's army to take action. Just a vanguard battalion will probably be able to bite Jian Yong's soldiers and horses to death.
That's not luring the enemy, it's killing one's life!
trouble...
Really troublesome!
Seeing Lin Zhe silent and frowning, Lu Lingqi tentatively said: "Mr. Lin...er..."
"Now that my father is here, Xiaopei cannot be defended by your troops alone. If you are willing to be loyal to my father, I will definitely..."
"No need to say any more!" Lin Zhe waved his hand, interrupted Lu Lingqi's words, and said: "I am not Lu Bu, and I can't change his master easily. Since I have followed Liu Shijun, Zhe must do his best!"
"When he really captures Xiaopei, you can tell me this again!"
"Come, let's see the guests off!"
Following Lin Zhe's order, two guards walked out of the door.
"Girl, please!"
Looking at the stubborn Lin Zhe, Lu Lingqi also hesitated. She could have used force to directly capture Lin Zhe, and then used it to blackmail the soldiers in the city into surrendering.
But in the end she gave up.
After all, Lin Zhe did not make things difficult for them. If he had done this, it would have been even more impossible for Lin Zhe to be used by his father.
She wanted to see if she could win over Lin Zhe.
...
...
After getting the news, Lin Zhe quickly ordered his guards to call Jian Yong and other generals.
Not long after, everyone hurried to the main hall to discuss matters.
After everyone had arrived, Jian Yong frowned and said, "Xian Yun, the news of our surprise attack on Xiaopei has been leaked. At this time, Lu Bu's vanguard camp is probably less than ten miles away from us. Do we want to let Yong lead the troops as planned?
To lure them away?"
"No need!"
Lin Zhe sighed, shook his head, and said helplessly: "The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly. It would be unwise to divide the troops again at this time!"
Lin Zhe thought for a while and then turned his attention to Zhao Wu.
"How many troops are there in Lu Bu's vanguard camp? Who will lead the troops?!"
Hearing Lin Zhe's question, Zhao Wu took a step forward, clasped his fists and said, "The scouts are here to report. The people coming from the opposite side are Lu Bu's personal guards - the trapped camp led by Gao Shun, there are about five hundred people. As for the auxiliary soldiers,
The number is not very clear to the scouts, but it is estimated to be no less than a thousand!"
Lin Zhe nodded, indicating that he was relieved, and then continued to ask: "Where is Lu Bu's army probably now?!"
"This..." Zhao Wu hesitated for a moment, and then said: "It is said that in the Pengcheng area, these people are cutting down trees and building bridges, digging mountains and paving roads, and setting up camps. They are making quite a splash."
"The momentum...isn't small?"
Lin Zhe was a little confused.
Zhao Wu clasped his fists and explained: "Last night, our army's scouts did not dare to get too close, so what they could see was not very clear. In addition, the time was in a hurry, so we only saw some outlines."
"how?"
"Xianyun, what do you think is wrong?!"
Jian Yong looked at Lin Zhe who was meditating and couldn't help but ask.
question?
Big problem!
Although Lin Zhe doesn't know much about military affairs, he can still see the problem here.
"Xianhe, let me ask you, Lu Bu's army can obviously reach Xiaopei faster by water, so why didn't he take the water route instead of the land route?"
"This...could it be that Lu Bu thinks that I will ambush you upstream? It will be difficult to win if you go against the current?!"
Lin Zhe shook his head and continued: "It's okay to take the land route. Let's just talk about Lu Bu's army digging mountains to pave roads and cutting down trees to build bridges. Shouldn't this kind of thing be done by the Pioneer Battalion?"
"Where is their vanguard camp?!"
"Gao Shun is almost at Xiaopei now!"
After saying this, Lin Zhe couldn't help but move his eyes, carefully peeling off the cocoon and analyzing the abnormality.
"Also, according to Lu Bu's temperament, when he learns that his family members have been captured, I am afraid that he will immediately follow the Pioneer Battalion to Xiaopei for support!"
"In other words, it cannot be Gao Shun who leads the trapped camp, but Lu Bu!"
Lin Zhe's words also made everyone present fall into deep thought.
Indeed, if Lu Bu's temperament is followed, it is indeed possible to do such a thing.
"Then what Xian Yun means is..."
Lin Zhe did not answer immediately, but tried to put himself into Lu Bu's perspective and carefully thought about his intention of doing so.
There must be a reason for him to do this...
Since Lu Bu did not attack Xiaopei personally, it can only mean that his target may not be here at all, so...
His only goal remains...
Xia Pi!
Jian Yong also felt something was wrong at this time. After thinking for a while, he seemed to have thought of something. He raised his head, and after his eyes met Lin Zhe's, he also blurted out the place name Xiapi.
"Xianhe also figured it out??"
Jian Yong nodded. Lin Zhe had already analyzed it to this point. If he didn't understand it anymore, he would be a bit stupid.
"The reason why Lu Bu's army did this is probably not to attack us, but to lure General Zhang from Xiapi City out of the city!"
"That's right!" Lin Zhe nodded, confirming Jian Yong's guess.
"When we look at the whole situation, we can naturally see that something is wrong here, but General Zhang doesn't know what's going on here, so I'm afraid he won't be able to see through Lu Bu's trick..."
"The greater the commotion there is, the less likely General Zhang will be to defend Xiapi as planned. Once he leads his troops out of the city..."
"Defeat!"
Jian Yong frowned and asked: "Then what should we do now?!"
Lin Zhe was actually struggling. Yi Lu Bu's resourcefulness would definitely not be able to come up with this kind of strategy of encircling a point and calling for reinforcements. It must be Chen Gong's handiwork.
Lin Zhe also has his own views on Chen Gong.
Once Chen Gong takes the lead, he will usually beat you to the point of breaking out in a cold sweat. This is the time to test your adaptability.
This kind of adaptability is also the key to determining the strength of this wise man. Chen Gong is lacking in this, so his evaluation is not as good as others.
Chen Gong's layout and planning relies more on accurate intelligence. Once something unexpected happens, his strategy will not be fully successful, and there is even a risk of being counterattacked.
Fortunately, in this offensive and defensive battle between Xiapi and Xiaopei, Lin Zhe had the upper hand from the beginning. Whether it was killing Cao Bao or attacking Xiaopei by surprise, it was all part of his plan.
Sent Gao Shun to attack Xiaopei and lure Zhang Fei out of the city. This was Chen Gong's temporary decision after learning about his plan.
In other words, he has no follow-up plans at all!
Once things change, he may lose his sense of proportion.
And to break his layout, it's actually very simple...
Lin Zhe's eyes narrowed, then he looked in the direction outside the city, and said calmly to Jian Yong:
"Xianhe..."
"you say..."
"If we capture Gao Shun's trap, what will Lu Bu do?!" This chapter has been completed!
