When Zhang Xiu came to the main camp, only Cao Ren was sitting in the main seat, while Cao Hong and Cao Xiu were sitting at the base.
Happy Jin, Li Dian, Xu Huang and others also appeared one after another, glanced at Zhang Xiu's seat and sat down, and finally Xiahou Dun, Xia Houyuan and others appeared in the tent.
The seats of both sides are very clear. The Cao family and the foreign generals sit in a row, unlike Liu Bei's side. It should be said that the Liu family basically has no support for Liu Bei in terms of generals.
"I think you all know the current situation. I am informing you to come here just to ask whether we should chase out of the Great Wall and fight with Xianbei, or whether we should ensure that the border is clear and stay where we are." Cao Ren asked the biggest question at the moment.
"Needless to say, how is it possible to stay here and watch Xianbei leave? Could it be that everything we did before was just to waste our food and grass?" Cao Hong straightened his body and said.
"If we pursue him now and we don't have enough troops, once the Xianbei people become ruthless and divide their troops into two groups, Bingzhou will definitely be lost." After all, Li Dian was young and didn't care about Cao Hong's face at all.
"Do you mean that we watched Xianbei leave? They have already looted part of it. Although it is not enough to survive the winter, it is enough to keep some young and strong!" Cao Hong, who had a grumpy personality, retorted directly. Lu Bu had already shot such a big gun. Achievements, could they just watch with helpless eyes!
"Our army's lack of strength is an important reason that affects our army's strategy. The original Battle of Xuzhou was due to strategic errors, which is why we haven't recovered yet!" Li Dian is still in a young and energetic state. , I have no idea how many scars my words have torn.
In an instant, everyone on the opposite side from Xiahou Dun down had dark faces, so much so that even Cao Ren, who was in charge, didn't look very good, but after all, Cao Ren had a better view of the overall situation, "Okay, let's not talk about what happened before. I'm not here to quarrel with you. of."
After being shouted back by Cao Ren. Li Dian, who attended the meeting for the first time, finally realized where he was wrong and opened his mouth, but finally gave up.
"Let's fight, things have reached this level. If we don't take a gamble, it will be difficult for us to reverse the situation." Cheng Yu stood up and said with great dignity.
"Mr. Cheng, our army has too few troops, and the enemy's troops are too vast. I'm afraid it will be difficult to win even if we fight." Du Xi shook his head and said. "Although what Mancheng said is biased, we have to guard against it."
"I dare to say that we will win any battle." Cheng Yu said coldly and sternly, "Although Xianbei has a large number of troops, its morale is greatly reduced. The slightest disturbance may cause panic."
"We know that Kebineng will also know, so he should have started to reward and stabilize the morale of the army by now. I heard that Helian is not popular." Du Xi shook his head and said, "We haven't reached the point where we have to gamble yet. .”
Cheng Yu and Du Xi made it clear that neither could convince the other. After all, there are benefits to both fighting and watching Xianbei retreat, but there are risks, but they vary in size.
"Shizhong Xun..." Cao Ren asked, glancing at Xun You who was frowning silently.
"I'm wondering what the purpose of our army's fight against Xianbei is?" Xun You frowned.
"Of course it's to guard the border, consolidate popular support, and prepare for the conquest of Bingzhou." Xiahou Dun said unceremoniously, while Cheng Yu and Du Xi frowned and thought.
"It's to strengthen us to deal with Liu Bei." Du Xi said silently.
"What is stronger is our military strength and civilian strength, which is our overall strength. As Mancheng said, we lost our most important strength in the previous battle." Xun You also smiled bitterly when he said this. If not for this, how could Cao Cao have fallen to this level?
"We need to train our troops." Xun You sighed and said, "Annihilating Xi Xianbei is not the most important goal, but strengthening ourselves is. So this battle must be fought."
Du Xi had nothing to say, "If we want to fight, I suggest that the whole army attack, and let the news be given to Xianbei, so that the other party can attack once."
"That's the only way to go. If it's false, it's true. If it's true, it's false." Cheng Yu also nodded, "It's a pity that we don't have enough troops, and Xianbei didn't enter the ambush circle."
"Let the Qiang and Hu cooperate with us. Our strength alone is not enough." Xun You looked at Cao Ren and said, "We mainly focus on training troops. There is no need to press too hard. Ke Bi can naturally feel our fear, no matter They will provoke us with a large army."
"Okay." Cao Ren nodded. The strategy of Xun You, Cheng Yu and others was very simple, but what should I say? The top is just talking, the bottom is running and breaking the legs. No matter how good the strategy is, it all depends on how well Cao Ren and others execute it.
"General Zhang, if the Xianbei army attacks, how many Xianbei armies can you defeat with all your strength?" Xun You turned to look at Zhang Xiu and asked.
"Fifteen thousand people are suitable, and 25,000 people can be defeated with casualties." Zhang Xiu thought for a while and then said.
"That's good. I'll leave the general to worry about it then." Xun You nodded and said nothing more.
If Xun You is not wrong in his estimation, Kebineng will definitely not lead his army when he gets the news that Bingzhou is empty, and those leaders who are dissatisfied with Kebineng will definitely instigate them, and Kebineng will inevitably compromise. to eliminate resentment.
However, Xun You couldn't guarantee how many people could come to this part. After all, Cao Cao really didn't know much information about the barbarians in the north. How high was Ke Bi Neng's dominance? Xun You could only follow the current situation. To estimate the stability of the Xianbei army.
Xun You nodded to Cao Ren, and then Cao Ren quickly began to assign military affairs to individuals. This battle had to be fought. Cao's new army must see blood, otherwise it would only be a burden.
After the quick distribution, Cao Ren looked at Zhang Xiu and said, "General Zhang, could you please guard the camp to guard against Xianbei sneak attacks."
Zhang Xiu opened his eyes slightly, and did not feel dissatisfied with having Pioneer sit in the rear. He was no longer Zhang Xiu, but Zhang Boyuan who needed to protect the Zhang family.
"Don't worry, as long as I am still here, Xianbei will never be allowed to invade Bingzhou." Zhang Xiu said extremely calmly, which made Cao Rengao take a look.
That night, most of Cao's army withdrew from the Bingzhou camp and rushed outside the Great Wall. At the same time, Ma Chao wiped out the completely unprepared Xianbei troops from west to east and headed straight for the royal court.
However, when Ma Chao arrived at the Xianbei Royal Court, he only saw ruins. If he hadn't seen the golden eagle decoration of the Xianbei King's tent that was cut into two sections, Ma Chao would not have believed that the ruins buried in ice and snow were actually the former palace. Xianbei Royal Court.
"What happened here?" Ma Chao muttered to himself as he looked at the bodies dug out from the snow. No living person in the royal court walked out of the ten steps of the royal court. Everyone was hit almost instantly. kill. (To be continued.)
