After listening to the opera artist's analysis, everyone remained silent for a long time!
Ever since Wang Mou left Cao Cao's camp in anger, the Cao army had suffered several losses, yet they had not even harmed a single hair on the other party's body. How unbelievable was this?
One had to know that they had tens of thousands of troops, a top commander like Cao Cao, and a resourceful person like Xi Zhicai, but they could not do anything to the other party!
Most importantly, they only had a few hundred people at most!
Hundreds of people had played with tens of thousands of people, and they had almost killed them!
Who would believe it?
All of this was because of one person!
Wang Mou, are you a human or a god? Why was he so monstrous?
"First, Miao Cai was captured due to carelessness. He broke three thousand out of six hundred, proving his military talent. The seven-day promise proved his courage and confidence. In the end, Liu County was set on fire, causing heavy casualties. Gong Liu died in battle, and Cao almost couldn't come out. This proved his schemes and ruthlessness.”
At the end of his speech, Cao Cao sighed." If it weren't for Cao Cao's good luck, I'm afraid you would have to carry my coffin back. His goal has been achieved, which is to protect the people of Xuzhou!”
"If I could comfort myself with carelessness before, then one after another, saying that I was careless would be deceiving myself!”
Cao Cao turned to the others and said solemnly," Remember, Wang Mou alone is a great enemy of our army. From now on, all of you must be on your guard. Don't let him seize any more opportunities!”
"Yes!"
"Fortunately, he doesn't have enough troops. Otherwise, even if we can escape this time, we won't be able to escape the fate of being exterminated outside the city! I have to say, the heavens are still looking out for me, Cao Mengde. I've escaped death by his hands many times! With such luck, even if he was the winner, he would probably be depressed to death at this moment, right? Haha…"
This was Cao Cao, extremely charismatic! A moment ago, he was chased like a stray dog and even begged for mercy. The next moment, the crisis was resolved, and he returned to his original character of a fierce and ambitious man, making merry in the midst of hardship to boost morale!
Xi Zhicai reminded,"My lord, you have forgotten one thing."”
"What?"
"Grain!"
Cao Cao was shocked. This was the soul of the army. Without the support of food, how could he fight?
"Zhicai, the grain will not be…"
Xi Zhicai shook his head." While Wang Mou had people set fires everywhere, he also personally went to assassinate the lord. However, he knew that his manpower was limited and could not kill our army in large numbers, so he placed hundreds of surprise soldiers at the granary. By the time I reacted and rushed over with my men, the fire had already been ignited. Fortunately, they were chased away by me and half of the food was snatched back.”
"Half…"
Cao Cao felt his heart ache. One had to know that there was not much grain in Yanzhou, and it could not support the army for too long. Now, it was even better. The rations were starting to run out!
"First, create a disturbance, then aim at the two fatal points of our army. As long as one of them succeeds, our tens of thousands of troops will collapse without fighting, and the siege of Xuzhou will be lifted. What a meticulous mind, what a matchless scheming, what a Wang Zilue. Zhang Liang would probably be nothing more than this in his next life!”
At this moment, Cao Cao regretted letting such a genius escape. Why didn't he cherish it back then? Why didn't he believe her? He was simply confident and not arrogant! Cao Mengde, oh Cao Mengde, you're so silly!
Cao Ren and the others broke out in a cold sweat. Would their lives be guaranteed if they went against such a terrifying guy?
"Then how did they come and go without a trace?”
Everyone was very curious about this!
Xi Zhicai looked up at the sky." It's a tunnel! My guess is that after capturing General Xia Hou, Wang Mou ordered the six hundred soldiers to return to Liu County and prepare to burn the city while digging tunnels outside the city. In seven days, with hundreds of people, digging a few tunnels was a piece of cake!”
Everyone was enlightened. This was the only possibility!
Cao Ren frowned." That's not right. Then how did he make sure that our army would move into Liu County?" Could it be a gamble of luck? That's impossible, right?"
Xi Zhicai shook his head." I'm not betting on luck. I'm using time and distance.”
"Sir, please speak more clearly!"
"Have you forgotten that he was the one who chose the location of the negotiation? He had already calculated how much time it would take for the tens of thousands of soldiers to reach Liu County from the wilderness. He only needed to control this time well. He could decide when to hand over the people!”
"Do you still remember that when the army arrived at Liu County, it was sunset. At this time, whether to choose a ready-made city to settle down in or to set up camp outside, everyone would choose the former!”
Of course, this was because every time they set up camp, they would consume a lot of manpower and resources. Moreover, how could the wilderness be safer than a city?
" That's why I said that everything was planned by him, but we didn't realize it and fell into his trap!”
Xi Zhicai could not help but smile bitterly. The more he sorted out the details, the more powerless he was. He was truly frightened by Wang Mou's scheme!
Cao Ren and the others gasped. They were not just afraid, but terrified!
There was actually someone in the world who could calculate everything? It was too terrifying!
Cao Cao said hatefully,"Wang Zilue, Cao Cao will never underestimate you again…" No, from now on, I will treat you as a great threat and won't dare to relax for even a moment. Don't even think about getting what you want!”
In this fire, the Cao army had suffered thousands of casualties. Shi Huan had died in battle, and half of their rations had been burned. Cao Cao himself was injured, and he would not even be able to sit for a long time.
The 30,000 soldiers, including Cao Cao and his generals, were all burnt black, like tens of thousands of refugees.
