"My lord, your majesty has just passed away, and Ma Teng openly proclaimed himself emperor. He will not be recognized in any way. Not only that, he will also be criticized by the people in the world. As for whether your majesty was killed by the lord, anyone with a discerning eye can see it.
Come out, my lord, don't worry about it. Now, the most important thing is how to face the pressure of hundreds of thousands of Xiliang soldiers. If our army cannot block the edge of the Xiliang soldiers, it will inevitably lead to a crushing defeat." Xun You.
First analyze it.
Guo Jia then said: "The matter has come to this. Our army has reached the stage of its last stand. Behind us are tens of thousands of Yan people. Even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire in front of us, we should continue to fight through thorns and thorns. My lord, my subordinates think that
, it’s time to fight to the death with the Xiliang soldiers.”
"We second the proposal!" Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Tai Shici and other generals present all said in unison.
For them, there is nothing more exciting than fighting. Moreover, Wen Chou, Guan Hai, Li Tie, Su Fei and others were killed one after another, plus the losses caused by Ma Chao's last sneak attack. This blood debt can only be paid with Western aid.
Liang Bing's blood was used to pay for it, so what was shown on their faces was not only excitement, but also a great revenge mentality.
Last time, Ma Chao suddenly attacked the Yan army camp. The generals gathered in the Chinese army camp for a military meeting. Those who stayed in the camp were all young generals who did not have the ability to coordinate the overall situation. It was precisely because of the lack of effective command from the generals that
The Yan army fell into chaos, and the strange fighting methods of Ma Chao's men caused the Yan army to suffer losses and lose more than 10,000 people. This also became an indelible stain on the entire Yan army's record.
Gao Fei looked around at everyone in the big tent, but Xu You was the only one who neither expressed his position nor spoke. He just stood there with a strange smile on his face, as if he was laughing at everyone.
"Mr. Ziyuan, have you thought of any funny jokes? It's better to have fun alone than to have fun with everyone. Why don't you tell your joke and let everyone laugh together to relieve this tense atmosphere!" Gao Fei
There was great dissatisfaction in the words. Everyone was working together, but Xu You was giggling there, seeming to be taunting everyone.
The smile on Xu You's face had long since disappeared without a trace, and his strange smile only lasted for a moment. Unexpectedly, he was caught by Gao Fei. He walked out of the class, raised his hands and said: "Master, subordinate
I didn't think of any jokes, I just suddenly thought of a person who cannot be ignored."
"who?"
"Cao Cao!" Xu You replied cheerfully.
"Oh, tell me what you think."
"My subordinates are close friends with Cao Ah Man, and I know Cao Ah Man quite well. Judging from the previous Dianwei incident, Cao Ah Man has already prepared for it. Now the Wei army has retreated to Niujiatun to station itself, far away from the Guandu battlefield. It seems that the troops are not moving.
In fact, they are retreating in order to advance, wanting to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. My subordinates thought that our army
While fighting the decisive battle with the Xiliang soldiers, we must also strengthen our precautions against Cao Amo and be prepared." The reason why Xu You showed a weird smile was because no one had discovered this problem yet, and he said it out of his mouth.
It will appear that he is much superior to others, so he is complacent there.
"Zhang He, Chen Dao, Wei Yan, Chu Yan." Gao Fei turned his face and called four people's names in succession.
"My subordinates are here!" Zhang He, Chen Dao, Wei Yan, and Chu Yan stood up together and said in unison.
"Zhang He is the chief general, Chen Dao, Wei Yan, and Chu Yan are the deputy generals. The four of you, with 10,000 infantry, advance 20 miles eastward and garrison the old county seat of Juan County, Yuan Yong City. You can face each other across the river. If you see the Wei army
Anyone who dares to cross the Liuzi River will be shot and killed. You must guard the place firmly," Gao Fei said.
"promise!"
Yuanyong City was originally the county seat of Juan County. Due to the flooding of the Yellow River ten years ago, the low-lying Yuanyong City was submerged. It was not until the flood receded that it gradually emerged, but a large amount of sediment and corpses accumulated. At that time, the county
Afraid of causing a plague, Ling moved the county seat 20 miles westward and rebuilt the current county seat, thus leaving Yuanyong City abandoned.
However, when Gao Fei led his army to Juan County, he had already conducted a very detailed geographical survey. Starting from Yuanyong City in the east and arriving at Hucheng Pavilion in the west, in this narrow strip, there were only two exits from Juan County.
One is the official road running from north to south, and the other is the east-west direction of Yuanyong City.
From Yuanyong City to the east, crossing a small river called Liuzi River, you can reach Yuanwu County, and to the southeast, you can reach Yangwu County and Zhongmu County. Guandu is in Zhongmu County, and Niujiatun, where Cao Cao is stationed,
It was at the junction of Yangwu County and Zhongmu County. Because of this, Gao Fei immediately realized the possible danger as soon as he heard Xu You's words.
Gao Fei turned sideways and said to Sima Lang: "Boda, I will leave you a thousand men stationed here. The governor of Jizhou and the deputy military advisor Xun Chen have brought some reinforcements and stationed them on the bank of the Yellow River. They will arrive here early tomorrow morning.
You are responsible for reception and
And assist Xun Chen in arranging grain and grass. After arriving at Xiuwu, grain and grass will be transported here. This will be an important place for our army to store grain. We must take strict precautions no matter what. Before the reinforcements of Jia Xu and Han Meng arrive,
There must be no mistakes.”
After hearing this, Sima Lang felt a heavy burden on his shoulders and said: "I will do my best to ensure the smooth flow and safety of food and grass."
Gao Fei nodded, turned his gaze to Xu You again, pointed at Xu You and said: "You... serve as Zhang He's military advisor, and coordinate with Zhang He, Chen Dao, Wei Yan, Chu Yan and others to defend Yuanyong City."
Xu You said happily: "Yes!"
"The rest of the civil and military forces will all go to Guandu with me early tomorrow morning to fight to the death with the Xiliang soldiers!" Gao Fei said loudly.
"No!" All the civil and military officials replied together.
After the meeting, all the generals returned to their camps, arranged soldiers, prepared their troops, organized their armaments, and wiped their weapons. The soldiers who had been suppressed for a long time were as excited as if they had drunk chicken blood. When they went to bed at night, their armors
Don't take it off, just wait and see.
Before dawn the next day, Gao Fei marched toward Guandu with 70,000 elite infantry and cavalry.
Gan Ning was still the vanguard, leading 500 cavalry and Wang Wei and other generals to open the way in front. When they came to the scorched earth that had been burned to ashes, they saw the Xiliang soldiers responsible for the defense, like
Frantically, he rushed in with lightning speed.
Gan Ning took the lead and was the first to rush into the camp. At the risk of being shot through by arrows, he personally beheaded an enemy captain. After the enemy general was killed, the remaining hundreds of miscellaneous cavalry resisted.
Unable to hold back, they fled one after another. Gan Ning and Wang Wei took advantage of the situation to cover up the killings. They chased them for more than ten miles and beheaded more than 300 people in a row. Then they stopped and took charge of surveying the surrounding situation.
Taishi Ci led five thousand cavalry to follow Gan Ning. Everywhere along the way he saw traces of battles left by Gan Ning and others. His competitive spirit arose again, and he muttered to himself in confusion.
He said softly: "What is so good about Gan Ning? Why is he always the vanguard? I really don't understand what my lord is thinking..."
If it were in the past, his deputy general Li Tie would definitely appear by his side and offer a few words of comfort, but now that Li Tie is gone, he feels quite uncomfortable.
"General, my lord thinks so, and naturally he has his own thoughts. No matter what, Gan Ning can never compare with the general, because the general has great military exploits and numerous achievements that no one can erase."
When Taishi Ci was worried that no one was flattering him, a flatterer came. After hearing this, Taishi Ci looked back at the speaker with a sense of pride and smiled: "Hou Cheng, you are really talking more and more."
Already."
Immediately afterwards, Taishi Ci did not hide his words and said with all his treasures: "I, Taishi Ci, have gone through hundreds of battles since I surrendered to my lord. I conquered Dongyi, surrendered to Wuhuan, drove out Xianbei, led troops to Bingzhou, and captured Chen Gong. I have achieved many military exploits."
Hehe, he, Gan Ning, has only been here for a long time and has never fought in many battles. How can he be stronger than me?"
Song Xian, who was next to Hou Chengchao, winked, and the two of them said in unison: "General Hu is so powerful that he shakes the border, and his hero is invincible throughout the world. The two of us are so impressed that we are so impressed."
After hearing this, Taishi Ci was so happy that he couldn't even close his mouth.
Hou Cheng and Song Xian have been following Taishi Ci since they surrendered to the Yan army. In the past, it was difficult for the two of them to get close to Taishi Ci. With the deputy general Li Tie on their heads, even if they wanted to flatter him
, there was no chance. It was different now. Li Tie was killed in battle, and Taishi Ci had no deputy general. The two of them had a small calculation in their hearts. They wanted to take this opportunity to perform well, hoping to serve as Taishi Ci's deputy general together.
When Taishi Ci smiled like this, the relationship between him, Hou Cheng, and Song Xian became closer. As he walked along the way, he could hear Taishi Ci's hearty laughter.
In the evening, the Yan Army's 70,000-strong army entered Guandu one after another, forty miles away from where the Xiliang soldiers were stationed. After Gan Ning, Tai Shici, Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun and others arrived at their destinations, they shouldered the responsibility of building the
The work of the camp was carried out with great enthusiasm, and the huge camp was built in just two hours. In order to avoid being harassed by the enemy, Taishi Ci and Gan Ning patrolled back and forth with their cavalry.
After nightfall, all 70,000 troops were stationed in the camp. The entire camp was brightly lit, illuminating the surrounding area as if it were daytime.
In the dark night, there was a pair of eyes that had been paying close attention to every move of the Yan Army's camp. The man was hiding in the grass in the wilderness as tall as a person, and even avoided many patrolling soldiers. His skill in hiding himself was evident.
At about midnight, the people hiding in the grass slowly left there and ran backwards for several miles before leading the horses behind a small hill. After getting on the horses, they galloped quickly.
Got out.
After galloping for about ten miles, the man turned into a dense forest. He first imitated a few bird calls, and then when he saw someone appearing, he turned over and dismounted, knelt directly in front of the man, kowtowed and said, "Kow, little one."
Your Highness, I have already figured out the situation in the Yan Army camp."
"Very good! If this is passed on, everyone mounts their horses. This time, Yan Jun will be completely defeated!" The one who was called the prince was Ma Chao. There was a hint of joy in the corner of his mouth, and he said excitedly.
At this time, Ma Chao had a golden crown on his head, a hundred-flower war robe, Tang Ni armor, a lion barbarian belt, an earth fire Xuanlu spear in his hand, and a sweat-blooded horse riding on his crotch. He looked majestic, and on his body
It also has an added air of nobility.
However, although the weather in May can't be called hot, it can't be called cool either. He dressed himself up like this, which makes people feel a little hot when they look at it.
However, Ma Chao never takes the ordinary path, even when dealing with the relationship between princes. He is completely unruly and fights randomly for no reason, just like when he attacked the Wei State in Yingchuan County before, and later went to fight with Cao Cao.
Well, it really feels a bit capricious.
However, Xiao Ma is capable. Just because he admired Lu Bu back then, after seeing Lu Bu once, he couldn't forget Lu Bu's dress. This outfit was completely tailor-made for him according to Lu Bu back then. As the saying goes, Buddha
A golden outfit is what makes a man good. After he puts on this outfit, from the appearance, if you don't look carefully, he is really no different from Lu Bu back then. It feels a bit fake.
After the words were spoken, Ma Chao's subordinates mounted their horses one after another. Just as Ma Chao was about to shout to set off, Suo Xu suddenly rode up to him and dissuaded him: "Your Highness, as the saying goes, one learns from every experience. The Yan army was defeated last time.
During the sneak attack, it was only just now
It has only been ten days, and the lessons learned from the past are still fresh in my mind. In addition, the place where the Yan army camped was in a plain area, which inevitably put themselves in a dangerous situation. I think that the Yan army may be deceitful and it is not appropriate to attack rashly. I should continue to observe and wait until tomorrow.
Decision."
"Soldiers are valuable and quick. Besides, our army has been assembled. It is not surprising that the Yan army has just arrived and has no knowledge of geography. It chooses to set up camp in the wrong place. The last time it attacked the Yan army, the combat effectiveness of the Yan army was no more than this. We
As soon as the army launched the attack, the other army started to panic. There is nothing to be afraid of. Even if there is a trick, who dares to resist with the strength of our Qin cavalry?" Ma Chao said rather arrogantly.
"But the prince..." Suo Xu continued to dissuade him.
"General Suo, no need to say more. I know you handle things cautiously. I will leave you three thousand cavalry. You can just guard the perimeter. The rest will follow me!" Ma Chao raised his arms and called out, leaving three thousand cavalry behind.
To Suo Xu, he took Wang Shuang, Cheng Yi, Zhang Heng and 17,000 elite Xiliang cavalry out of the woods one after another, and headed towards the Yan army camp under the leadership of the scout.
After seeing this, Suo Xu frowned, sighed, and said softly: "True words are hard to hear!"
After he finished speaking, Suo Xu was still worried that Ma Chao would fall into the trap. In order to give his group of cavalry a surprise attack, he deliberately waited for Ma Chao to go away for a long time before slowly leading the Yan army with three thousand cavalry.
