But even his plans could not go away without success.

Holding a torch and making a few signals in the air, a huge warship sailed out in the night not far away. In front of the warship, there were [-] elites under his command.

At this time, everyone was holding a rocket in their hands, and after igniting it, they shot it directly towards the Yiling Ferry.

The rocket filled the sky, like a meteor, and shot into the ferry in an instant.

Under the ignition of the rocket, the fierce flame oil and other objects prepared in the dark burned violently.

The fire was raging, and half of the sky was red in the blink of an eye.

Liu Bei, who had just withdrawn from Yiling Ferry, felt the heat wave behind him, turned around to take a look, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

At the same time, I was secretly lucky.

Fortunately, there was a reminder from Zhuge Liang, otherwise if he stayed inside for a while longer, and the fire ignited at this time, he would not be able to leave even if he wanted to, and could only be buried in the sea of ​​​​fire.

"Master, thanks to you this time." Liu Bei turned his head and said to Zhuge Liang who was beside him.

"Liang's duty is, the lord doesn't need to do this." Zhuge Liang shook his head, then glanced behind him.

Although the army retreated in time, there were still a few people who failed to evacuate in time, and when the fire ignited, these people obviously would never get out.

Although the loss was not large, Zhuge Liang felt rather unhappy in the loss of some soldiers and horses in vain.

Originally, these accidents could be avoided.

As long as he can be careful.

Unfortunately, the words that Cao Hong left at that time finally affected his mood, which made him unable to detect the hidden crisis for a while.

"My lord, the Yiling Ferry was burnt down. Even if our warships were not defeated by Gan Ning, I'm afraid they would have withdrawn temporarily, so we can only change our direction and find a place to cross the river again."

Taking back his mind, Zhuge Liang looked at Liu Bei and said.

"How can the army cross the river without a boat?" Liu Bei looked embarrassed.

If there are few people, it is better, just go to the homes of the common people and recruit a few small boats, and you can cross the river.

But with more than [-] people, let alone hundreds of warships, where can I find so many ships in a short period of time?Even if it is temporarily built, the key is that the soldiers and horses under his command will not be able to build boats. They can only build some small boats, and each boat can take a dozen people at most.

"Going further west, there is a port called Wugang. This port is a small ferry port on the edge of the Yangtze River. There should be some ships." Zhuge Liang said.

"Okay, then let's go to Wugang." After Liu Bei finished speaking, Zhuge Liang raised his hand to stop it.

"Master, don't worry." Zhuge Liang shouted.

Liu Bei asked suspiciously, "Master, what else is there?"

"Now my army is surrounded by Cao's troops, and there are Gan Ning's navy in the Yangtze River. If we go to Wugang, we will not only face the besieged and besieged by Cao's army, but even if we can successfully cross the river in the end, we will be killed by Gan Ning in the Yangtze River. intercepted,"

"What does the military advisor mean?" Liu Bei wondered.

Now that you know that Wugang can't go, why do you say it?

"I intend to deploy a suspect soldier to attract Cao Jun to Wugang, while the main force of our army should retreat eastward, so as to escape from the encirclement of Cao Jun." Zhuge Liang said seriously.

"That's a good idea." Liu Bei's eyes lit up.

Today, he was repeatedly chased and ambushed by Cao Jun, and he has long held back his anger.

If you can get rid of Cao Jun, it is naturally excellent.

But Liu Bei quickly calmed down.

Cao Ren and Cao Hong are both famous generals who have fought for many years. Although Wei Yan is not well known, he is not a kind person after several contacts.

It's hard to deceive these people.

"Then Sergeant, what should we do?"

"I already have an idea in my mind, the lord only needs to do this..." Liu Bei whispered in Liu Bei's ear, lowering his voice.

After listening, Liu Bei asked hesitantly, "Master, is this possible?"

"Let's give it a try."

Zhuge Liang shook his head and did not explain much.

"Okay, then try it."

Liu Bei had no other choice, so he immediately ordered the army to retreat, and after reaching a safe place, he took advantage of the darkness to rest in place.

Then he called Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun and other generals, and explained it in detail.

The generals took orders and immediately went down to prepare.

It wasn't until the third watch that it was ready.

Immediately, Liu Bei did not hesitate. After the order was given, Liu Bei's army was directly divided into several groups and went in all directions.

In the dark, the army did not light the torches, so Cao Ren and the others did not receive the news until Liu Jun walked out several miles apart.

At this time, Cao Ren, Cao Hong and Wei Yan, who had already joined the army, immediately gathered together to discuss ways.

Among the three, Cao Ren was the leader, Cao Hong was the deputy, and Wei Yan was the vanguard.

Wei Yan bowed his hands and said, "The two generals, Liu's army is divided into eight groups, and they are going all over the place. Every soldier and horse is dusty along the way. I suspect that it is Liu Jun's plan. The exact number is still difficult to find out. "

"However, from the three groups of soldiers and horses, they all saw Liu Bei's flag, and in front of the army, they also saw people who were suspected of Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang."

"These three troops and horses are heading west, east and northeast respectively."

Both Cao Ren and Cao Hong frowned.

Liu Bei divided his troops into eight groups, and went in eight different directions.

This made it difficult for them to determine which army Liu Bei was in in a short period of time, and because it was too dark, Liu Jun did not light many torches, and it was difficult to find out the specific number of each army.

If they rashly dispatched troops to hunt them down, they might catch only a remnant of the soldiers, or they might catch up with Liu Bei's main force.

If you can catch the remnants, it's fine, but if you kill it, it's fine.

But if they encounter the main force of Liu's army, if they bring insufficient troops, they will be easily defeated by Liu's army.

Not to mention that he was in danger and let Liu Bei run away, didn't he live up to the arrangement of Lord Jijiu?

"This plan must have come from the hands of Zhuge Liang, and only this person has such a quick wit." Cao Ren walked around and said helplessly, "I used to follow Lord Jijiu before, and I didn't think that Zhuge Liang was so powerful, but today it is true When I faced Zhuge Liang, I realized that this person is really good."

Cao Hong and Wei Yan also laughed bitterly.

Yes.

Before, they followed the instructions of Master Jijiu, and they went smoothly along the way, and they killed Liu Jun to throw away his armor and armor.

But now that there is no arrangement for the wine-sacrifice adults, when they faced Zhuge Liang again, they suddenly felt it was difficult.

Only then did I understand that it was not because Zhuge Liang was too weak, but because Lord Jijiu was too strong.

"Zixiao, it's useless to say these things, it's better to go after Liu Jun immediately." Cao Hong said calmly.

Cao Ren waved his hand, signaling Cao Hong to stay safe.

"The more it is like this, the more you can't be in a hurry, otherwise you will only fall for Zhuge Liang's plan." Cao Ren frowned and said calmly, "Just think again, which direction is Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang most likely to go in!"

heard.

Both Cao Hong and Wei Yan frowned and thought. .

Chapter 191

After half a column of incense.

The three of you look at me, I look at you, stare at each other, then look at each other and smile bitterly.

"There doesn't seem to be a good way to do it."

Cao Ren shook his head, "Since this is the case, then we can only use the stupidest way."

Saying that, Cao Ren pointed to the map on the side and said:

"If Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang want to get out of trouble and go to Jiangxia, they can only cross the river, and there are only six places in Nanjun that can cross the river. Among them, the Yiling Ferry has been burned down by Ganning, and this place can be excluded."

"There are five remaining places, three of which are in the east of Jiangling City, and the remaining two are to the west."

"I intend to divide the army into five groups, three thousand per share. Chief Wen, you will lead two large armies to the west, I will lead two large forces to the east, and Zilian will lead one large army to the northeast."

"Chasing and killing Liu Jun along the way, if you can't find Liu Bei, then lead the army to the major ports to garrison."

"Since you can't find them, then wait for them to arrive at various ferry crossings. I still don't believe that Liu Bei's army will not come!"

Cao Ren took a picture of the map, then turned to look at Cao Hong and Wei Yan, "What do you think?"

Both Cao Hong and Wei Yan nodded: "The last general has no objection."

"Okay, let's set off immediately." Cao Ren didn't waste time. After speaking, he immediately went to lead an army of [-], split it into two groups, and headed east.

The sky was bright in the chase.

at this time.

More than ten miles away from Jiangling City, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang led the army. Although their faces were tired, their eyes were quite bright.

Because Cao Jun did not chase after him.

This shows that Cao Jun was either attracted by other suspicious soldiers, or he was still far behind for a while, and there was still a long way to go before them.

And these times were enough for them to evacuate safely.

"My lord, Jiangling City is in front of you. There must be scouts from Jiangdong and Cao Jun nearby. I don't need to pay attention to my army. I just need to quickly bypass Jiangling and go to the place I said."

"The faster we are, the shorter Cao Jun's reaction time will be, and the less likely it will be to catch up with us."

"In this way, the army can be kept safe and sound!"

Zhuge Liang said.

"The strategist is right." Liu Bei said with a smile.

although.

Last night, in order to evacuate safely, he sent out three or four thousand suspected soldiers.

Having lost so many people, it would be a lie to say that he doesn't feel bad, but Liu Bei couldn't do anything about it.
