Three Kingdoms: I choose Xiao Qiao and Da Qiao, why are you crying, Diao Chan?

Chapter 353: Surprise Attack on the Enemy Village! (Thanks to the monthly ticket support from book friend 2024…4614~)

At this moment, Wei Xu was holding a military book and reading it slowly under the candlelight.

Although he did not like reading, the Duke of Chu required these generals to read whenever they had time and even set up random assessments.

If one day he is randomly checked and is found to be unable to answer the knowledge in the military book, his salary will be deducted!

Therefore, even if he couldn't continue reading, Wei Xu forced himself to read a few more words and slowly digest the contents of the military book.

Just when he was so sleepy that his eyelids were fighting, a familiar voice suddenly sounded outside the tent:

"General Wei, Captain Quan Cong wants to see you!"

Hearing the boy's voice, Wei Xu immediately became more energetic.

I didn't expect this guy to take the initiative to find me. I don't know what's going on.

Wei Xu put down the military book and said, "Come in."

The tent was opened and Quan Cong walked in with a serious face.

Wei Xu saw the other party's expression and frowned:

"What happened?"

Quan Cong looked at Wei Xu carefully, and after a moment he slowly said:
"I have a contribution that I would like to give to General Wei!"

"Oh?"

Wei Xu didn't expect this kid to be so capable, and immediately pointed to the small stool beside him and said:
"What's your achievement? Sit down and tell me."

Quan Cong sat down on the stool and continued to say to Wei Xu:

“Just now when I was in the camp, I saw the flag in the center of the camp was broken by the wind. This is probably a bad sign.

“Also, it’s windy tonight, and it’s coming from the south.

“I think the enemy is likely to send troops to raid our camp and attack it with rockets!
"If we don't take precautions, I'm afraid our army will suffer heavy losses!"

After hearing what Quan Cong said, Wei Xu immediately felt that the other party was trying to trick him, and snorted in displeasure:
“Our army is approaching in force, and if the enemy does not rely on the terrain, how can they have the courage to confront us head-on?

"Are you afraid that you are holding a grudge against me because I targeted you before, and you want to take this opportunity to take revenge on me?"

Quan Cong was not surprised by Wei Xu's suspicion:

"I have deeply appreciated the general's teachings, so how could I bear a grudge against him?
"I just want to give this credit to the general and get closer to him.

"Since the general doesn't believe me, I will go find another general."

After saying that, Quan Cong stood up, clasped his fists, turned around and prepared to leave.

Just as he was about to leave the tent, Wei Xu, who was looking at his back, suddenly spoke:

"Wait!"

Quan Cong stopped and looked back at Wei Xu.

Wei Xu walked quickly to Quan Cong and asked in a low voice:
"How sure are you about this matter?"

Seeing that Wei Xu was moved, Quan Cong clasped his fists and said seriously:

"At least 70% sure! Zhang Ren is a famous general from Xichuan, he is definitely not an ordinary person!
"Even General Wei thinks the enemy won't dare to raid our camp, and I think most people think so too.

“The difference between famous generals and ordinary generals is that they can seize opportunities and dare to do things that are different from ordinary people’s ideas!
“Imagine if the enemy really sent people out to raid our camp and attack our troops with rockets.

"If our army does not respond, will we be caught off guard?"

After listening to Quan Cong's more detailed analysis, Wei Xu finally believed that the other party was sincerely coming to give him credit.

He patted Quan Cong on the shoulder, a look of joy appeared on his resolute face:
"Okay, I'll trust you this time!"

After saying that, Wei Xu walked out of the tent and went straight to the central military tent where Lu Bu was.

While Lu Bu was doing one-finger push-ups with his left pinky finger in the tent, Wei Xu's resonant voice rang out from outside the camp:

"My Lord! Wei Xu has something important to report!"

"Enter."

Lü Bu was holding his breath and could only reply briefly. When Wei Xu walked into the tent, he saw Lü Bu lying on the ground exercising.

Seeing that the other party was able to support his entire body with just the little finger of his left hand, deep admiration suddenly appeared in his eyes.

No wonder he has unrivaled martial arts, this training method is also difficult for ordinary people to replicate...

Seeing that Lu Bu had no intention of getting up, Wei Xu immediately clasped his fists and said:
"My lord, I have something important to report!"

Hearing this, Lu Bu pressed his body down, concentrated his strength on his little finger, and pushed it down hard, and his whole body bounced up from the ground!
Lu Bu dusted off his hands and turned to look at Wei Xu, who had a serious face:

"Why, is there any urgent military information?"

Wei Xu said "hmm":
"I guess the enemy may attack the camp tonight!"

"Oh?"

Lu Bu looked at Wei Xu suspiciously.

According to normal human thinking, he also felt that it would be safest for the enemy to stay in the city at this time, and it would not be cost-effective for them to attack the camp...

"Tell me why you think so."

Upon hearing this, Wei Xu immediately relayed Quan Cong's words to Lu Bu.

But Quan Cong's name was never mentioned throughout the whole process.

After hearing Wei Xu's detailed answer, Lu Bu narrowed his eyes.

He turned around and walked to the table and sat down, then asked with a smile:

"Did you really come up with this speculation yourself?"

Faced with Lu Bu's scrutinizing smile, Wei Xu suddenly became embarrassed.

He knew that the current Lord Chu was not as easy to fool as he was three years ago, so he could only reply truthfully:
"Actually... Captain Quan Cong told me."

Sure enough.

Lu Bu was not surprised by this.

After all, there is no doubt that Wei Xu was capable of killing enemies on the battlefield, but the possibility of him thinking of things that ordinary people could not think of was too low.

Only a general like Quan Cong, who is both capable of commanding troops and having strategic strategies, could think of these things.

However, Lu Bu did not blame Wei Xu for this.

Since Quan Cong was willing to tell Wei Xu about this matter instead of coming to him directly.

This means that the other party intends to give the credit to Wei Xu.

Since the person involved was willing, Lu Bu naturally had no reason to hold Wei Xu accountable.

He tapped his fingers lightly on the table, feeling that Quan Cong's analysis was indeed reasonable, and immediately said to Wei Xu:
“Order the soldiers to quietly move all flammable materials out of the camp.

“In addition, you will lead another 5,000 soldiers to ambush on the mountain outside the camp to block the enemy’s retreat.

"I will personally handle the frontal situation!"

Wei Xu was overjoyed and immediately left the tent to prepare.

At the same time, on the streets of Luocheng.

Zhang Ren felt the strong wind blowing from the south, and suddenly an idea came to his mind. He quickly went to the city wall and observed the enemy's camp.

Seeing that the enemy's camp was neat and orderly, with strict defenses, Zhang Ren couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration.

As expected, the army is led by Lu Bu himself, it is rigorous and standardized!
However, the more such a camp there is, the less likely the enemy would expect him to use a surprising strategy.

If you lead an elite force to raid the enemy camp in the middle of the night, the enemy will certainly be unable to anticipate it!

Although it cannot defeat the enemy army, it can still greatly damage the enemy and boost our own morale!

Moreover, the south wind is blowing hard tonight and the enemy camp is in the north.

If we fire rockets indiscriminately, the enemy will surely suffer a great loss of supplies!
Thinking of this, Zhang Ren immediately ordered a troop of a thousand elite soldiers to make preparations, intending to personally lead this elite force to launch a surprise attack on the enemy camp in the second half of the night!
