Chapter 901

The woodman's face changed a lot when he heard the words, and he turned to run.

"If you can escape in front of me, I will write Lao Zhang's name upside down!"

Zhang Fei yelled, his legs clamped his horse's belly, Wu Hao BMW was bright-minded, and galloped out with a long hiss.

"kill!"

Zhang Fei on horseback screamed, his eyes widened, his arm stabbed, and the long eight snake spear suddenly penetrated through the body, penetrated through the back of Cao Jun's chest, and broke out of his front chest. Then Zhang Fei shook his arms vigorously, and Cao Bing was picked up in midair and screamed loudly.

"Hey!"

Zhang Fei yelled, and slammed his arms down. This Cao Bing's body looked like a rag, centered on his back, separated directly from it, with bright red blood spilling all over the floor.

"Huh, Cao Jun is a mere spy, and dare to lie in front of Lao Zhang?"

Zhang Fei snorted and pulled his horse back to the formation, continuing to lead the advance. This incident was like a calm episode, which did not affect the march of the army at all.

That night, Liu Bei was in the main account.

"Brother, I found a Cao Jun's work tonight."

Zhang Fei chewed, and muttered: "This guy pretended to be a woodcutter and wanted to inquire about our army, but when I saw it through, he was stabbed to death with a spear."

Liu Bei nodded: "Well, our army has already entered the territory of Jiujiang County, not in Runan. It is inevitable that we will encounter Cao Jun's work, so we will send out more scouts to scout to prevent the enemy's ambush."

In ancient times, there was no satellite map for the marching war. The army was like a giant, and the scouts sent out were like the eyes of giants, able to detect the enemy's movements and prevent being ambush.

In the last years of the Ming Dynasty, due to poor scout training, the Ming army was often seized by the Qing army to ambush, leading to major defeats. An army without scouts is naturally terrifying.

"Eldest brother, third brother, I am a little worried." Guan Yu frowned.

"Chang Yun, what's the matter?"

"Cao Jun is definitely not the only scout. At this moment, our army's movements are very likely to have fallen into the eyes of the enemy. And our army is about to cross the Huai Shui River. If the enemy is lined up on the other side, prepare to take advantage of our army. What should I do if I cross over and hit it?" Guan Yu worried.

In terms of military abilities, Guan Yu is undoubtedly the best among Liu Bei's three brothers. Otherwise, Liu Bei would not rest assured that he would leave Guan Yu alone to guard Jingxiang. Later, Guan Yu launched the famous battle of Xiangfan, besieged Cao Ren, flooded the Seventh Army, and shook China. Cao Cao was so scared by Guan Yu that he even planned to move his capital.

Liu Bei and Zhang Fei were not fools either. After hearing Guan Yu's words, their expressions suddenly became serious.

"What Yun Chang said is quite true. If this is the case, it would be even more difficult for our army to cross the Huai River." Liu Bei frowned.

Guan Yu clasped his fist and said: "Brother, please give me 10,000 soldiers and horses. Yide will support you. My 30,000 soldiers will be divided into two groups. Brother and Yide will lead 20,000 soldiers to move forward. I will lead 10,000 soldiers and horses. Partial teacher."

Guan Yu pointed to the map and said: "I led a 10,000-pian division from the upper reaches of the Huai River, and went straight to the enemy's side, and then attacked the enemy. When the enemy and our armies were at war, the eldest brother and Yide took advantage of the situation to cross the river. For the enemy, Xiahou Dun will be powerless."

Liu Bei and Zhang Fei all agreed: "This strategy is very clever."

"If that's the case, you will lead the army alone, Chang Yun, take care of everything, do you know?" Liu Bei said uneasy.

Guan Yu nodded: "Brother don't worry."

"Yide, you must not act recklessly, you must protect your eldest brother, you know?" Guan Yu said to Zhang Fei uneasy.

Zhang Fei's chest snapped and promised: "Second brother, don't worry, I'm here for everything!"

Ever since, Liu Bei split the 30,000 soldiers and horses into two, Guan Yu led 10,000 soldiers and headed toward the upper reaches of Huai River, while Liu Bei and Zhang Fei led 20,000 soldiers and came toward Huai River in the established direction. .

...

"General Yuan Rang, after the precise investigation by our scouts, the enemy should appear in this section of the river immediately, and our army can make arrangements early." Han Hao on the side said to Xiahou Dun.

"Well, if Liu Bei dared to cross the river this time, he would have to be dedicated to the prime minister!" Xiahou Dun laughed.

After all, this is Jiujiang County. Cao Jun’s scouts originally had a geographical advantage and were familiar with the local terrain. Therefore, although Liu Beijun’s movements were not well known, he was basically certain.

Xiahoudun and Han Hao led an army of 30,000 and stationed quietly on the east bank of Huaishui, in a tight formation, waiting for Liu Beijun's arrival.

After about three quarters of an hour, the land on the west bank of Huai River suddenly vibrated, and then countless densely packed human heads appeared in Xiahou Dun's sight.

A dark green flag with Liu and Zhang floated in the air at the same time. Liu Bei and Zhang Fei rode side by side, surrounded by thousands of horses, slowly came to the west bank of Huai River.

"Sure enough, as Yun Chang said, the enemy army is already standing on the east bank of Huai Shui, waiting for our army." Liu Bei sighed.

Zhang Fei chuckled and said, "I have to give this Xiahou Dun a taste of what he has done later, until the second brother walks behind them."

Liu Bei didn't say anything, but ordered: "The whole army stops!"

boom!

The 20,000 army immediately stopped, no longer proceeding, but facing Cao Jun across the river, no longer taking any action.

"Liu Bei is cunning and doesn't cross the river." Xiahou Dun laughed and said: "If this is the case, our army will spend so much time with the enemy army. Let's see how long Liu Beijun can spend!"

Liu Beijun is on the offensive side, it is more difficult to supply grain and grass, and it may be intercepted by Cao Jun. But Cao Jun is different. Cao Jun is fighting in the main realm and has an advantage in food and logistics. If it is consumed like this, Xiahou Dun is really not afraid.

Ever since, the two armies looked at each other across the river with a total of 50,000 soldiers. Although it was shrouded in an atmosphere of rattling, the two armies had never fought, and they had not even shot a single arrow. They looked very peaceful.

"General Yuan Rang, there seems to be something wrong." Han Hao suddenly frowned.

"Oh, I also think something is wrong."

Xiahoudun frowned and said: "The enemy army does not seem to be eager to cross the river at all. It seems that it is enough to contain our army here."

Liu Beijun is not in a hurry to attack, he is leisurely, giving people a feeling of not being anxious at all. Does the enemy have any back-ups?

"not good!"

Han Hao suddenly exclaimed: "General Yuan Rang and Brother Liu Bei have all been dispatched this time, why did the enemy only display two flags, Liu and Zhang, but not the banner of Guan Yu?"

"what?"

Xiahou Dun's eyes widened, and he hurriedly scanned the other side, but he couldn't find the general flag with the word "Guan".
