While the Han camp was planning something shocking, conflicts were still breaking out in front of the Wei army.
Cao Hong couldn't let go of being slapped.
"King Wei, did I say something wrong?"
Xiahou Dun, Xia Houyuan and others also had doubts on their faces.
Indeed, all of them believed that a stalemate must be the best option.
As long as they wait, food and water sources alone will be enough for the Han army to worry about.
When you run out of ammunition and food, you can take it without any effort!
"King Wei, what General Cao Hong said makes sense..."
Cao Ren and Cao Hong are brothers, so they naturally have to defend themselves.
Unexpectedly, he was immediately scolded by Cao Cao.
"Shut up!"
"This bad idea, do you all still think it's reasonable? Are you all pig-minded??"
Everyone looked puzzled, among them Cao Hong was the most aggrieved.
That look on his face showed that he was competing with Cao Cao at all. If he didn't give him a reason today, he would definitely not give up!
"King Wei, I have a pig's brain. Please ask King Wei to clarify my confusion!"
"snort!"
Cao Cao first snorted in anger.
"I want to ask you, what information did Xun Yu provide?"
Xiahou Dun took the initiative to answer.
"Liu Zhang came with 4,500 people from the trapped camp."
"good."
Cao Cao looked at Zhang He and Cao Ren.
"I want to ask you, how many soldiers did you see trapped in the camp on both sides?"
Both of them were stunned for a moment, and then answered in unison,
"About...more than two thousand...?"
In the end, both of them had a questioning tone.
Very sure, but not too sure, very contradictory.
Cao Cao glanced at the two of them lightly and continued,
"If Gu's prediction is correct, the 4,500 trapped camps on both sides will be used to guard against the chasm."
"hiss..."
As soon as Cao Cao finished speaking, Xia Houyuan took a sharp breath.
"If the trapped camps are on both sides, where did the archers in the middle come from?"
"That's exactly the problem!"
Seeing that someone finally had the idea, Cao Cao finally felt better.
"It doesn't matter how these archers came, where they came from, or who they were."
"unimportant?"
Everyone exclaimed in confusion.
More than 10,000 people have been shot to death, so it’s not important?
What is important?
"idiot!"
Cao Cao became angry and cursed again.
I was really speechless.
These generals who he had high hopes for were all as stupid as pigs!
"Xun Yu told Gu that Liu Zhang had a total of 4,500 trapped in the camp. Now that there are so many more troops, aren't you afraid?"
"Afraid? What are you afraid of?"
Everyone was still puzzled.
Hundreds of thousands of people blocked the entrance of the valley. What's so scary?
Even if he is afraid, it should be Liu Zhang who is afraid, right?
"What on earth is King Wei worried about?"
Zhang He stood up and went straight to the topic.
He felt that this was really not the time to think about the problem.
All your energy should be focused on solving the problem.
"I am shocked and doubtful, so please ask King Wei to make it clear!"
"Yes, King Wei, it's better to speak out!"
The other three people all echoed.
Cao Cao sighed.
"Hey, think about it, since Liu Zhang made an omission here, are there any omissions elsewhere?"
"There are thousands more people inside the valley, but what about outside the valley?"
"Don't forget, Liu Zhang has millions of soldiers and horses under his command! If he is willing, he can completely surround the entire Hemiao Mountain!"
"hiss..."
These words shocked the four people around him, and all of them took a deep breath.
Are they afraid of the archers in front?
Afraid, how can you be shot back if you are not afraid?
But if you think about it from another angle, you are not afraid.
As long as you don't get close, you don't have any worries about your life.
But Cao Cao's words broke everyone's understanding that there was absolutely no danger to their own safety.
What should we do if there is an ambush outside the valley?
Who can't escape with wings?
"King Wei, what should we do?"
The first person to panic was Xiahou Dun.
As the saying goes, saying the cruelest words and doing the most useless things, Xiahou Dun is the one who is greedy for life and afraid of death.
"Shut up!"
Cao Cao glared at the panicked Xiahou Dun and shouted,
"Why are you panicking! How can you be so rude about panicking when you haven't done anything yet?"
"If you can't even withstand such a small turmoil, what qualifications do you have to be a lonely general?"
Xiahou Dun was so ashamed that he lowered his head and retreated.
"I am aware of my guilt."
"Humph, it's good to know!"
Cao Cao didn't pursue it too much and continued the topic just now.
"Now, there is a problem with Xun Yu's intelligence, and I have to wonder if there is something wrong with Xun Yu himself."
"If Xun Yu himself is a huge trap, then is this place created for Liu Zhang or for Gu?"
Zhang He was shocked and held up his hands to persuade him.
"King Wei, we have to guard against him!"
Cao Cao shook his head cautiously.
"Now it's not just a problem that we have to guard against, but it's time to prepare for the worst."
"If this is a trap for Gu Zuo, then there must be a huge ambush around it."
"impossible!"
Cao Ren stood up immediately.
"Reporting to the King of Wei, I have conducted a detailed investigation within a radius of ten miles. It is absolutely impossible to hide soldiers and horses."
"In addition, Liu Zhang's elite soldiers and horses are scattered all over Jizhou, and they will not be able to return for reinforcements in a short time!"
"With these two points in mind, I don't think there is any need to worry too much."
Seeing Cao Ren being so confident, Cao Cao couldn't help but be a little confused.
"Cao Ren, where does your confidence come from?"
Cao Ren smiled and became more confident.
"King Wei, our army of more than 100,000 people is indeed not an elite force. How can we call it an elite force if we make it up temporarily?"
"But so is Liu Zhang!"
"As we all know, the strongest troops under Liu Zhang are the Eastern Army, the Central Army, the Northern Army and the Imperial Guard. Apart from that, why not kill some rabble?"
"The trapped camp now belongs to the Imperial Guards. The unknown archers in front are almost undoubtedly the original martial archers of the Eastern Army. It is precisely because of these two troops that they have caused us so much trouble."
"Apart from this, does Liu Zhang have any other troops that he can use? None!"
"Since it's all a mob against a mob, what do you have to worry about?"
Cao Cao's eyes lit up, and he was amazed by Cao Ren's wisdom, courage and courage for the first time.
For a moment, the fear in my heart was much lessened.
"My son's words of filial piety make sense!"
"As long as the four major legions are not around, Liu Zhang has nothing to worry about!"
Cao Ren was not overjoyed, but continued,
"King Wei, I still have a small question."
"What!"
"Fifty thousand allied troops of the clans."
