Chapter 985 (1/2)
”Father, father!”
Cao Taixing rushed to Cao Ren with a letter and said to him, ”father, a letter comes from outside the city. Have a look.”
”Oh? From outside the city? I'll have a look at it
Cao Ren reached out and took the letter from Cao Tai's hand. After unfolding, his eyebrows immediately expanded.
”Father, is there any good news?” When Cao Tai saw Cao Ren's brow stretching, he immediately asked.
”Not bad!” Cao Ren said with a smile: ”Wenlie has led Chai sang 20000 navy to come, ready to receive our army's retreat.”
”That would be great!”
Cao Tai was excited for a while, and then calmed down: ”however, the Xiliang Navy is numerous, 20000 people may not be able to take over.”
”No harm, Wen lie has said in the letter.” Cao Ren explained: ”in the ugly time of tomorrow night, he will send a detachment to attack Xiliang army from the east to attract the enemy's attention. Then he will personally lead the main force to the west, and then our army will retreat from the West.”
”This letter was fired into the city, but it was not known by the enemy. If it was properly operated, it should be able to withdraw. When we get to Jiangdong, our army can regroup and fight against the enemy again.”
...
the next day, the night was ugly.
The Xiliang military water stronghold is quiet at the moment. Most of the officers and men in the Xiliang army are already in sleep except for the personnel on duty.
”Well?”
Gao Chong, the commander-in-chief of Xiliang junshui Normal University, suddenly opens his eyes and wakes up from his sleep. He only hears the noise in his ears and is naturally awakened. As a general, he has inevitably experienced a night attack, so his nerves are extremely sharp, and he will be awakened immediately when he hears any noise.
”Somebody, somebody! What's going on? ”
”Dudu Du, the enemy attacked our water stronghold at night from the East. At present, Zhu Xiaowei is leading the army to fight with the enemy!”
”Enemy night attack?”
Although Gao pet just woke up, his brain was thinking fast.
Cao's troops were not large, so they launched a surprise attack at night, apparently to meet Cao Ren's retreat at night.
Thinking from the perspective of high favor: what will you do if you want to take over your own army when you are at a disadvantage?
After thinking for a while, Gao Chong ordered: ”order the water army to be divided into two parts. Half of them will go to the east to attack the enemy, and the other half will immediately surround Jiangxia city. In any case, Cao Ren will not be able to break through the encirclement.”
”Here it is
On the east side of Xiliang water village, the sound of killing sounds thundering in the sky, and the fire light makes the water red. Cao Jun and Xiliang army are fighting together. Because he didn't know how many enemy troops had arrived, Zhu Huan, who was cautious by nature, did not order his water division to attack. Instead, he stuck to the camp.
At this time, a large number of reinforcements from gaochong had arrived.
”Captain Zhu, the commander of Dadu has an order to order the whole army to attack!”
”Orders of the governor?”
Zhu Huan nodded: ”well, since the governor of Dadu has orders, the whole army will attack!”
”Kill!”
The east gate of the water village opened slowly, and tens of thousands of Xiliang water division were killed in a single effort, with a tremendous momentum.
