Three Kingdoms, I'm really not a general!

Chapter 438 Only One Chance
Cao Hong originally thought that upon hearing the news that Chang'an was under siege, Sima Yi would show a bit of nervousness.

Unexpectedly, he remained calm and said with a smile: "Liu Bei is courting his own death!"

Pretending!

Cao Hong looked at him and commented in his heart, but he didn't look happy when he said, "General, what do you mean by that?"

Sima Yi laughed: "To the east of Chang'an is Tongguan, and the commander of Tongguan is Zhong Yuanchang."

"Even if Liu Bei's troops have great abilities, they can't break through Tongguan!"

"The pseudo-Han troops in Weinan are like turtles in a jar, ready to be taken at any time. How else can they be considered to be seeking their own death?"

When Cao Hong heard this, he felt that what Sima Yi said made sense.

But I still feel a little unconvinced.

After all, Sima Yi could think of it immediately, and in comparison, he himself was a little panicked.

This comparison makes me feel a little ridiculous.

At the moment, I could only say gloomily: "I see, since the commander-in-chief has thought it through, I am relieved."

bother!
Quite annoying!
Although Cao Hong said this, he felt annoyed in his heart, thinking that Sima Yi had tricked him again.

Look at the admiring looks on Zhang He and Xu Huang's faces, which makes Cao Hong even more annoyed.

Just when he was feeling depressed, he heard Sima Yi say, "But even if it's as General Cao Hong said, we can't just ignore the troops and horses in Weinan."

"I want to raise a group of soldiers and go to Weinan to surround and kill the fake Han army!"

"Who is willing to lead the troops?"

As soon as this was said, all the generals signed up eagerly, and Cao Hong was no exception.

Just this matter.
It sounds like a free achievement. Anyone who doesn't go is a fool!

Naturally, everyone was very enthusiastic.

However, although Cao Hong stepped forward to volunteer, he did not expect Sima Yi to really choose him.

Based on reasons.
It was also because he had offended Sima Yi somewhat with his previous remarks, so he would naturally give this kind of honor to someone like Zhang He who supported him so much.

That is why Cao Hong had no hope.

But he never expected that when he had no hope, Sima Yi actually chose him!
Sima Yi looked around and then looked at Cao Hong and said, "General Cao Hong said something before, but I didn't listen. So this time, can I give the credit back to General Cao Hong?"

When Cao Hong heard this, he thought Sima Yi was really a good person!
He nodded and said, "I am willing to go!"

Sima Yi was overjoyed and said, "If General Cao Hong goes there, he will definitely be able to kill the general and seize the flag!"

"only."

As Sima Yi said this, the subject changed slightly and he started to think about Cao Hong again.

He immediately shouted, "General, if you have any concerns, just tell me!"

Sima Yi said: "It's not that I have any concerns, but General Cao is going today, and there is only one chance. If the Weinan troops escape, there will be no chance to annihilate the enemy."

Only one chance!
When Cao Hong heard this, he thought it was true. It was a rare opportunity for Liu Bei to make a mistake, and there was really only one chance.

If the troops from Weinan escaped, Liu Bei would definitely not come again, and he would have no chance to make any merit.

Thinking of this, Cao Hong felt that Sima Yi was indeed thinking about him from head to toe. Finally, he showed a little bit of guilt on his face and stepped forward to say, "Thank you for your advice, Marshal. We will definitely annihilate the fake Han's army in one battle."

Sima Yi exclaimed "Great" when he heard this!
He then dispatched another 3,000 soldiers and horses to Cao Hong, sending him to rush to Weinan for assistance.

Cao Hong gathered his troops and led a total of 6,000 soldiers to attack Weinan.

Only one chance!
Zhang Fei in Weinan thought so too.

He knew that even though Liu Bei was providing cover for him by attacking the city, this matter could not be concealed for too long.

The Cao soldiers who escaped from Weinan would eventually report the matter to Chang'an.

The time left for him was not much. Zhang Fei thought about it and realized that although Tongguan was not easy to break through, there was still a way out.

After all, Tongguan is to the east of Chang'an, and it is impossible for him to think that he could send down a miraculous army from the sky, bypass Tongguan, and suddenly appear in front of this pass.

Most likely!

It is possible to deceive the defenders of Tongguan and capture Tongguan!
So Zhang Fei thought of an idea. He changed the armor of all his soldiers and dressed them like Cao's soldiers, intending to break through the pass.

It’s not enough to just change clothes.

For the ancients, marching and fighting were commonplace things, and they gained a lot of experience and lessons from fighting.

Generally speaking, a specific password is required to pick someone up at a checkpoint.

This password issue is difficult!

Zhang Fei wanted to ask Cao's army in Weinan, but he couldn't get any answer.

These are all special passwords. Soldiers who are not sent to Tongguan must not know what these passwords are.

all in all…

This special password is only known by special soldiers.

This put Zhang Fei in a difficult position.

The soldiers' uniforms have been changed, but without the command, this won't work!

So Zhang Fei thought about it over and over again, and finally he came up with an idea!
When Sima Yi learned that Weinan had been broken, he would definitely send troops to Tongguan.

The soldiers heading to Tongguan will definitely know the relevant passwords!

Thinking of this, Zhang Fei came up with an idea!

First, we can seize the reinforcements from the rear, and then get the password, and the matter will be settled!
only…

Zhang Fei knew very well that he only had this one chance!
And it is necessary to kill them with one strike and annihilate the reinforcements.

Otherwise, if we let one person go and return to Tongguan, the matter would be exposed.

Zhang Fei never thought that he was in a dangerous situation now.

The reinforcements are coming, and if he is defeated, they will be in danger.

Being sandwiched between Chang'an and Tongguan is a deadly situation.

But Zhang Fei didn't think about these things at all. He was only thinking about how to capture Tongguan.

These ancient people... really didn't care about their own life and death at all.

At this moment, he secretly said in his heart: "Ancestors, Zhang Fei has never asked for anything, today's battle, please bless, I must not lose."

Once the Chinese people say the words "our ancestors", it means they are ready to fight to the death!

Zhang Fei said this, indicating that he was determined to fight to the death.

How could he not know the danger? But if Tongguan was not captured, Chang'an could not be surrounded.

If we fail to encircle Chang'an, I wonder how many soldiers' lives will be lost given the difficult situation in Chang'an.

It doesn't matter if I sacrifice my life, but I'm afraid that even if I sacrifice my life, I still can't capture Chang'an City. That would be... better off fighting with all my might now.

Zhang Fei made his decision and prepared to fight to the death.

He immediately gave the order not to go to Tongguan, but to stay in Weinan instead, to wait for Cao's reinforcements to arrive so that they could rob and kill them along the way.

This is indeed dangerous.

Zhang Fei didn't know who would lead the reinforcements, nor how many troops they would have...

After all, without knowing anything, Zhang Fei was simply prepared to fight to the death!
