Chapter 239: The Battle of Qing and Xu (12)

ps: Thanks to the two small characters, Xiaoren and Xiao Tian, for casting 2 monthly tickets, and thanks to Flyingtimo for casting 1 monthly ticket!

I have been very tired these past two days, as there are a lot of things to do right after the start of the new school year. Firstly, I need to clean up the dormitory and also prepare for the new semester, such as collecting textbooks and so on. Additionally, I have to get ready to welcome new students in a few days, and as the vice dormitory leader, I have to help carry their luggage as well. Moreover, I also need to prepare for the recruitment work of our department. In short, there is just a pile of tasks to complete. It's already 7:30pm before I have time for dinner, so I apologize for the late update and I hope everyone can understand.

Che Zhou was taken aback and asked, "I am acquainted with General Li Dian, he shouldn't be so stingy. Even though General Sun Bufu is absent, Tai Shan County would not be lost."

Wu Dun replied indifferently, "Unfortunately, if it had been half a month ago, General Li Dian might not only have lent you troops, but also moved his own army south. However, it is no longer possible now. I cannot go into the specifics of the situation, and I advise you all not to ask. This matter concerns the strategic secrets of the Cao army!"

Everyone was stunned, a secret strategy!

This strategy is directly related to the outcome of this great war!

Could it be!

Xuanwu Army is no longer in Taishan County!

Che Zhou looked at Wu Dun in disbelief, but did not say it directly. Obviously, this kind of thing should not be mentioned to outsiders.

The front battlefield has been smooth sailing, and a few days ago Lord successfully repelled Yuan Benchu's army. It doesn't make sense for the Xuanwu Army to not provide support to the front battlefield. Isn't this like picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons? Only reply to the translated content.

Is it possible...

Zhang He launched a surprise attack on Xuzhou, so is it possible... General Li Dian, launched a surprise attack on Qingzhou!

The more Che Zou thought about it, the more likely it seemed, and he also felt admiration for the strategist.

These strategists are terrifying. Both sides launched a surprise attack at the same time. If it weren't for that, at least one side would have suffered serious injuries.

The change in expression on Che Zhou's face naturally fell into Wu Dun's eyes. Wu Dun was also secretly amazed by Che Zhou's reaction and intelligence. From the look of it, he probably guessed a lot of things.

Of course, the two of them only nodded at each other tacitly, without revealing their intentions.

"However, we also have reinforcements, already prepared in case of any unforeseen circumstances."

Wu Dun's mouth slightly curled up, clearly showing full confidence in this so-called reinforcements.

"Reinforcements?" Che Duo was somewhat surprised, unable to believe that there was already another prepared force of reinforcements, and even felt somewhat incredulous.

"How many troops are there? Who will lead them?"

"I can't say for now." Wu Dun shook his head and didn't reveal the specific information about the reinforcements, which made everyone feel uneasy. They worried that Wu Dun might have fabricated the so-called "reinforcements" just to make them hold their ground.

Che Zhou looked at Wu Dun with some anxiety, his expression hinting for Wu Dun to reveal some information about the reinforcements to the crowd, as withholding it might actually affect morale.

Wu Dun understood and frankly said, "The specific information about the reinforcements will determine the success or failure of this battle, so I cannot disclose too much."

Che Zhan was somewhat disappointed, but Wu Dun quickly said, "All I can say is that although the reinforcements are not many in number, the commander is a military advisor from our army personally leading the troops!"

A military advisor personally leading the troops?

莫非是。。。。。。

一名武将激动得声音有些颤抖道“难。。。。。。难道是。。。。。。祭酒亲自领军!”

曹军之中军师有很多,诸如:荀彧、荀攸、程昱、戏志才、周瑜、刘晔,但军师祭酒,只有一人。

That person is well-known throughout the world!

That person is none other than Guo Jia, the unparalleled genius strategist!

Guo Jia, a name highly respected by hundreds of thousands of Cao army soldiers and millions of subjects under his governance.

出仕至今未尝一败,这个名字几乎和战神和胜利划上了等号。

曹军参与的战役,但凡有郭嘉的参与,那么此战必胜!

Moreover, Guo Jia's participation in the war will undoubtedly be accompanied by the current recognized second fierce general of the world, Dian Wei!

Guo Jia, the most intelligent strategist of the Cao army, and Dian Wei, the most powerful warrior of the Cao army!

Just these two names alone can bring unimaginable morale to the Cao army, which is also the reason why the voice of that general trembled. In his view, as long as Guo Jia personally leads the army, victory is guaranteed in this battle.

As for Wu Dun's first half sentence, the number of troops sent for reinforcement is not many. They selectively ignored the first half sentence and did not pay attention to this sentence. Not only did he think so, but others also thought so.

Wu Dun smiled knowingly, neither confirming nor denying.

However, Che Zhou understood that the military adviser Wu Dun referred to could not possibly be Guo Jia. Guo Jia had recently engaged in a fierce battle at Hu Zi, where he defeated Wen Chou and captured Guo Tu. However, he also fell ill. Whether it was due to considerations of military victory or concern for Guo Jia's health, Cao Cao would not have sent Guo Jia.

Xun Yu is stationed in Xudu to stabilize the rear, while Liu Ye has not personally commanded the troops in battle so far. Xun You is a man of few words and not suitable for leading an army alone. Therefore, the possible main general can only be one of the three: Xi Zhi Cai, Cheng Yu, or Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu, despite being young, is well known for his achievements and abilities. The fact that he has gained the trust and high regard of both Cao Cao and Guo Jia proves that he is indeed capable.

Che Zhou slammed the table and drew his sword, shouting, "Since we have reinforcements, do you all have the confidence to defend this Donghai County and protect Tan Cheng?"

"We will definitely defend Donghai County and Tancheng!"

"As long as there are people, the city will remain!"

"We, the Cao army, have never feared the Yuan army!"

"Very well!" Che Zhou brandished his sword and shattered a corner of the table, shouting, "Anyone who dares to retreat shall face the same fate!"

The corner of the table was cut off and landed on the ground, bouncing twice. The sound of it hitting the ground also shook the hearts of people who still had a timid and fearful disposition.

Che Zhou saw that people's hearts could be used and deployed defenses in various cities.

The cities of Haixi, Quxian, and Licheng have already been broken through, so it is likely that the cities of Quyang, Houqiu, Pingqu, Dong'an, and Zhuzhi will not be able to hold on either.

There is absolutely no danger for the cities west of Yishui, such as Rongqiu, Xiangben, Lanling, Chengxian, Yinping, Qixian, Changlv, Hexiang, Ganyu, Xue County, and Jianyang. The most dangerous situation is actually in the central part of Donghai County, in the cities of Tancheng, Jiqiu, and Liangcheng.

The three cities are strategically interconnected, and the majority of the troops are concentrated in these three cities for defense. If the defense is carried out properly, it is not a problem to hold these three cities for half a month. By then, whether it's the reinforcements from the four counties adjacent to Donghai County, namely Xiapi, Langya, Guangling, and Pengcheng, or the reinforcements sent by Chen Deng's Panlong Army, they would have already arrived. Please note that the use of @ is not necessary in English.

Moreover, it is estimated that the messenger dispatched from Luxian County is about to arrive in Xiapi City. The Prefect Mi, I suppose, will become restless upon receiving the news. Once he is informed, he will likely raise troops to come to our aid. This will save several days, and within ten days, reinforcements from Xiapi County will surely reach Tancheng.
