"Three armies have been prepared. The current situation of death cannot be reversed even by Yuan Shao, even with all his power." Jia Xu said in a calm tone, and his wise eyes seemed to have seen the expected ending through the long river of time.

"Yuan Benchu ​​will not be so willing to admit defeat. He has definitely prepared a lot of surprises for me. But unfortunately, in the face of absolute power, all resistance is meaningless." Yuan Shu said with a smile on his lips.

"In a battle involving hundreds of thousands of troops, ordinary infantry cannot be used at all. This battle should still be fought with elite infantry, supported by a large number of crossbowmen and light cavalry. In addition, those specially arranged by His Majesty can also be placed on the battlefield.

, causing severe damage to Yuan Shao." Xun You said.

"Wenyuan has now mobilized troops in the southeast of Jizhou, slowly advancing westward and northward, eroding the land of Jizhou, constantly suppressing Yuan Shao's power, and forcing Yuan Shao to fight. But it is a pity that Yuan Shao has not been tempted so far, and has always clung to the essence of Jizhou.

The county has no intention of sending troops. How can I bear it!" Guo Jia said regretfully.

"After all, he is my brother. In adversity, his mind becomes clearer and clearer. If he doesn't even have this overall perspective and patience, he is not enough to be my enemy." Yuan Shu didn't care at all and said with a smile.

"Yuan Benchu ​​is like a poisonous snake right now, he won't take action easily, but once he takes action, our army will be killed. Fortunately, Wen Yuan is cautious by nature and is proficient in the use of troops, so he will never give Yuan Shao an opportunity. We just need to wait.

Just keep advancing and force Yuan Shao to take action. Order Bo Fu to guard the flanks to contain Yuan Shao's army and provide support at any time." Xun You said.

"It is impossible for me to expose obvious flaws and give him an opportunity. I would rather lose more troops than give him a chance to break the situation." Yuan Shu said with a flash in his eyes. He did not want to be like the three major battles in the late Han Dynasty.

Usually, Yuan Shao defeats the enemy with a weak attack and a strong victory.

The reason why the stronger side in the three major battles lost so miserably was because they were too arrogant, eager to win, and thought they were infallible. As a result, they exposed various fatal flaws, and the opponent seized the opportunity to hit them with a fatal blow.

And defeated.

Although Yuan Shu was not very proficient in the art of commanding troops in combat, he knew a very simple truth. As long as he was not eager to win, he would not reveal his flaws, and as long as he was not arrogant and complacent, he would not make fatal mistakes. The more greedy and aggressive he is, the more he wants to

Taking advantage of the other party will become more and more dangerous. In battle, only the weak will seek danger, while the strong only need to be stable and remain unchanged in the face of changes.

Since you can win the game with a flat push from the middle, why go after the opponent in all directions just to gain advantage and expand your advantage? If you are ambushed, it will not only be damaged in that way. If you use the whole body to expose the flaw, you will be hurt.

If the opponent takes a chance to breathe, it can easily lead to the collapse of the entire battle.

"Yuan Benchu ​​is so stubborn that he just wants to take the initiative and force us to take the initiative and seek a decisive battle. In this way, they can wait for work, explore the flaws of our army, and take advantage of the right time and place to defeat our army." Guo Jia took a sip.

Jiu Dao: "We refuse to let the enemy achieve what he wants. Yuan Benchu ​​is determined to wait for a good opportunity, so we will force him to attack."

"Yes." Yuan Shu nodded slightly: "In order to serve as a filial piety, I sent an order to Wen Yuan, and I allowed him to use it freely, and started fighting in Jizhou. Liaodong cavalry, Qingzhou Sun Jian's army, Sili Taishi Ci's army, Yanzhou Huang Zhong's army and Gan

Ning Zhi's naval army is all behind him, so he doesn't have to worry too much, he can take as much territory as he can, and force Yuan Benchu ​​out of the turtle shell of Yecheng!"

...

After carefully reading the letter from Yuan Shu three times, Zhang Liao felt his blood boiling in his heart. He couldn't help but kneel down on one knee facing the south and said: "Your Majesty's trust is greatly appreciated by Liao Ming, and there is no way to repay it. I will definitely remove Yuan Shao from Ye City."

Force them out to thank Your Majesty."

"General, what should our army do next?" After hearing the content of the military order, Dong Xi, Xu Sheng and other generals under Zhang Liao also felt a rush of blood rushing into their hearts, and their eyes turned red.

"Since His Majesty has given us the opportunity to fight, we have to play big." Zhang Liao looked at the map on the wall: "Our army is the best at dealing with miscellaneous soldiers among all the legions. But Yuan Shao is in Jizhou and Youzhou.

Checkpoints and forts were built everywhere for defense. Most of the soldiers were newly recruited soldiers, and their combat power was almost non-existent. If it were not for the danger of the city wall, we could defeat this group of soldiers with a single charge. But with the city wall,

It will be a little troublesome for us to deal with him."

"General, it is better to attack directly. After all, the gap in combat power between the two sides is there. With the characteristics of our army, facing these rabble, everyone can be equal to ten. With enough siege equipment, we can easily capture the city.

Pass." Ling Cao said with determination.

"No, in this case, although we can quickly seize the Wubao Pass in various places in Jizhou, the losses of our army will definitely not be small. We will not do this kind of loss-making business by exchanging the elites of our army for the lives of new recruits like Yuan Shaojun.

.We need to find ways to reduce losses and avoid head-on siege battles." Zhang Liao said immediately.

"General, how about using a night battle and sneak attack?" Ding Fenghu, who had always been silent, said.

"Night fight?" Zhang Liao murmured.

"Yes. The soldiers of our army are all elite. They have undergone a lot of training in night battles and can also attack the city at night. Moreover, although the number of Wu forts built by Yuan Shao's army is large, but because of this, the construction of Wu forts is relatively long.

It is simple, the city wall is only a few meters high. Our army does not need to use large siege equipment such as ladders and catapults. We can climb the city wall with some flying ladders and hook locks." Ding Fengdao.

"Moreover, as General Ling Cao said, the Zhao army is all new soldiers, with weak combat power and low quality. Moreover, the characteristics of our army are extremely restrained by these new soldiers, and they can exert extremely strong combat power. During night attacks,

, these new soldiers have weak willpower and no experience in field combat, so they will definitely be in a hurry, and they are definitely not the enemy of our army. If we use more sophisticated tactics, Wu Fort, which has few soldiers, can be captured easily."

After listening to Ding Feng's words, Zhang Liao suddenly realized that fighting at night has never been a good strategy, let alone attacking the city at night. According to common sense, it is an extremely stupid move, and the gain outweighs the loss. However, in this situation, it is just right. Zhang Liao had only been beaten before.

My eyes were blinded by my inherent thinking, and I couldn't react for a moment. After listening to Ding Feng's explanation, I suddenly realized it as if I had received an enlightenment.

The reason why night battles and sieges are taboo for military strategists is because the visibility at night is poor, making it difficult for the siege party to clearly see the defensive deployment, and it is also difficult to command and dispatch, making it difficult to allocate troops and arrange attacks. Secondly, fighting at night will disturb the soldiers.

The normal work and rest affects the condition of the soldiers. Thirdly, siege at night requires too high quality of soldiers. Without certain training, it is good to be able to exert seven or eight points of combat power.

From this point of view, attacking the city at night is really a stupid move that kills eight hundred enemies and damages one thousand. But in the current situation, it is just right.

The disadvantages of night fighting are almost non-existent for Zhang Liao's army today. Those Uburg garrison forces are not large, so there is no need to worry about deployment issues. Moreover, the quality gap between the soldiers on both sides is too large. One side knows how to fight at night, and the other side has many.

For recruits who have never experienced war, in comparison, although night battles will have a certain negative impact on both sides, the impact on Zhang Liao's army is obviously far less than that of Zhao's army. For recruits like this, with a city wall blocking the front, they can still defend against several waves.

Okay, once there is an attack at night, it is possible that the camp will be blown up.

"Yes, what Chengyuan said is great. The biggest advantage of our army compared with these Zhao troops is the individual quality of the soldiers. Night attacks and sieges can give full play to our advantages. If we gather elite troops to sneak attack Wu Bao at night when they are unprepared,
