Chapter 1294

The news of Handan's fall soon spread to Yecheng, which shocked everyone in Yecheng. Originally, two days ago, the cavalry sent from Luoyang was already in place, but both Zhao Yun and Lu Su felt that the time had not come for the cavalry to attack.

After all, although there were more than 30000 cavalry this time, only the 10000 white horses under the command of Zhao Yun could really match the Bingzhou wolf cavalry under the command of Lv Bu, the king of Zhao. Moreover, they were barely unbeaten under the same military strength, while the rest of the soldiers were no different. If more than 30000 cavalry were trapped by Zhao cavalry and then surrounded by Yuan Shao's Hebei cavalry, there would be little chance for them to escape.

But we didn't expect that Handan city would be captured so soon, which was unexpected.

"Damn thing, don't let someone catch him, or he will be broken into pieces..." Zhao Yun looked at the contents of the pigeon letter and said angrily with gnashing teeth;

"general, you must send this news to Luoyang as soon as possible, and at the same time, you must remind other city guards to be careful that the same situation will happen again, especially in Yanzhou city!" After pondering for a moment, Lu Su said,

with that, Lu Su picked up the pigeon letter again and looked at it carefully. Suddenly, he found something unusual: "eh!"

All the people nearby looked at him, and Zhao Yun said, "what's wrong with the military adviser?"

"If we expect it to be right, the opportunity we want will come soon." Then Lu Su picked up the pigeon letter and pointed to one of the words to Zhao Yun;

"when Zuo Xiaobu fled, Zhao's cavalry didn't appear outside the west gate. Instead, after daybreak, he rushed to catch up with Zhao, which was the intention of the military commander..." Zhao Yun didn't think of the key. He grasped these words and read them several times. Then he suddenly woke up and said, "the relationship between Wei and Zhao allied forces is not as good as it seems."

"Yes, if the Wei army trusted Lv Bu, they should tell Lv Bu about it before stealing the city. Then Lv Bu would certainly arrange cavalry outside the west gate. However, when general Zuo led the army of Handan to break through the siege, Lv Bu's cavalry did not appear outside the west gate, but rushed to catch up after daybreak, so it must be because the Wei army did not advance He colluded with Lu Bu. "

"With Lu Bu's character, even if he doesn't flinch away, he will not be as close to the Wei army as he was at the beginning. Therefore, if it's not bad, Lu Bu will abandon the Wei army and act alone, so our chance should come soon."

When people heard the words, they were all in front of their eyes.

"Captain he Ruo, please keep a close watch on the movements of Zhao's cavalry these days. General Zhao, the prefect, Lord Yan, General Chen, I'm not very familiar with the surrounding environment of Wei County, so I'd like to ask you to give me a detailed introduction to the surrounding terrain." After he ruobi arranged for jindiao to keep a close watch on the movements of Lu Bu's cavalry, Lu Su asked all the people in Wei county about the terrain in Wei county.

"The intention of the military commander is to lead Lu Bu's cavalry into the preset ambush? But Lu Bu is also a master of riding battles. Does the Kai Hui not pay attention to these things? " Zhao Yun asked suspiciously;

"there is no need to lead it into the ambush, just take it to the battlefield arranged by us. The purpose is to cut off the connection between it and Yuan Shao's Hebei Province. In this way, it can increase the odds of victory by at least 20%." Lu Su explained;

Zhao Yun immediately understood Lu Su's meaning. If more than 30000 cavalry fought against Lvbu's 30000 cavalry, if they could be cut off from Yuan Shaojun's cavalry, at least their own cavalry would not have to face the attack of nearly 60000 cavalry, even if it was not possible.

Several people immediately gather up in front of the map, carefully looking for the right terrain.

In Luoyang City, Xu Shu soon received the pigeon letter from Yecheng. However, at this time, Huangfu Chaobo had led 20000 guards to Chenliu, so Xu Shu immediately forwarded the pigeon letter to Chenliu city.

After Huangfu Chaobo received the news that Handan was lost, he was also surprised. You know, the location of Handan was very important for the Tang army. Handan is adjacent to fukouguan in the west, Liangqi in the south, Chiqiu and Weixian in the southeast, which is the most important point of Tang army in the periphery of Weijun. For this reason, Huangfu Chaobo specially placed nearly 20000 troops in Handan and its surrounding areas.

However, all the people were very close to each other, so they did not expect that Lu Bu would send 30000 cavalry to support. In this way, the suppression of the Tang cavalry on the Wei army was broken, and the reinforcements from other places did not dare to send troops to support. If there was no protection of the absolutely superior cavalry, the infantry would send troops to support Handan city.

For this reason, Huangfu Chaobo specially agreed to the request of recruiting soldiers sent by zuojiao yesterday. However, 5000 soldiers had just been recruited. No one thought that a humble little Qu Chang had been recruited by the Wei army, so that Handan city could not hold up to the arrival of reinforcements.

These are not the most important, but Lu Su's words, to Huangfu Chaobo a wake-up call, such as Handan city of Tang army for several years, there are middle and low-level generals infiltrated by the Wei army, so like Yanzhou City, which just won from Cao Cao for less than a year or two, is not more dangerous.Thinking of this, Huangfu Chaobo couldn't help sweating. He couldn't check everyone's loyalty if he knew that the Tang army had such a large number of soldiers: "how to deal with this matter, fengxiao?"

"There is no other way but to strengthen prevention." Guo Jia shook her head and said, "there are traces to follow, so I'm not worried about it. Zijing's words remind me that now I'm more worried about another thing."

"What's the matter?"

"Do you remember the battle of Puyang a few years ago?"

"Well, fengxiao means that Puyang changed hands several times a few years ago?" Huangfu Chaobo asked;

"yes, I remember that the army had captured Puyang City at that time, but it was taken away by Cao Cao's army in a flash..."

"Filial piety means taking measures..." Huangfu Chaobo suddenly woke up.

At that time, Puyang had indeed been conquered. However, because Cao Cao Jun had been operating in Puyang for several years, and then there was a tunnel leading to the outside of the city. Then Cao Cao Jun entered the city along the tunnel which had been hidden before, and then he took back the city again. If Cao Cao Cao Jun had not been defeated by his own army outside the city at that time, it would have been Puyang It's hard to get it back again.

For a moment, Huangfu Chaobo had a feeling that he was in a bad mood.
