Cao Zhen was overjoyed and left immediately after hearing this. After Cao Zhen left, Xiahou Shang said, "Zidan is young. If he leads the elite charge of our army, he may not be able to do it. The general is not strong enough. How can we break the formation?"
"
Sima Yi just glanced at Xia Houshang, then withdrew his gaze, not talking to him, but continued, "I'm not too familiar with the generals in our army. Which one of you will select the suitable generals to join the vanguard?
"
"I'll do it." Although Cao Ang is not good at commanding troops, he is good at interpersonal communication and checks and balances. Of course, for a completely over-limited figure like Sima Yi, no amount of checks and balances will make any sense, so Cao Ang directly chooses
Delegate power.
"Then let's do it." Sima Yi nodded and said.
Then Sima Yi turned to look at Xia Houshang, who had been waiting for a long time, and his face was dark, and said, "In a battle of this scale, if a single strong general is chosen to lead the charge, then it is basically meaningless for a general with less than inner energy to separate from the body."
"Our army currently has no generals with internal energy separated from the body, so it doesn't make much sense to choose a leader based on strength and age. As for Cao Zidan, I think he is suitable for commanding the army." Sima Yi pointed to his head and said.
Xiahou Shang was so excited by Sima Yi's indifferent tone that he couldn't say a word. In the end, he could only groan to express his understanding.
Sima Yi didn't care at all about Xia Houshang's thoughts. The other party was just a small role to him. If he could control enough resources, he might be able to suppress him, but in this situation, it was the resources he controlled.
What's more, in this situation, Xiahou Shang doesn't need to be concerned about at all.
Cao Ang saw that Xiahou Shang was hesitant, so he stepped forward to smooth things over so that the situation between the two would not worsen. Then he took Xiahou Shang to select reliable generals to fill the headquarters led by Cao Zhen.
"Zhongda, what are you doing?" Cheng Wu hesitated for a while and finally tried to persuade him. Cheng Wu was recommended by Xun Yun to join the army. Cheng Wu was not a parallel import. Although he was not as outstanding as his father, he stayed out of the matter.
, he can still see very clearly.
"He wanted to fight with me, so I played with him. It happened to be fine. It's pretty good to tease a monkey." Sima Yi didn't hide anything at all. The young man's arrogant side was fully displayed. It seemed that since he received that letter
Among them, Sima Yi was not normal.
Cheng Wu was dumbfounded, then sighed, and understood Sima Yi's mentality. After all, he is such a proud man, why should he let you? To put it bluntly, who are you, Xia Houshang, Cao Cao's nephew? Compared with Sima Yi, who is his backer.
No worse than you, Xia Houshang!
What's more, Sima Yi is only targeting Xiahou Shang, and is also trying to win over Cao Zhen. If the fight between the two sides only focuses on the two of them, Cheng Wu feels that Xiahou Shang should just go to bed. By the way, the next generation will definitely not care about this.
thing.
"Then I'll retire first, Zhongda. Although your plan is good, if you can blow up the camp, most of the Southern Huns will not be able to tell the truth. But after the war, the Southern Xiongnu Shanyu Huchuquan and others may not be able to tell. Cao Cao
"Gong, they are not very far away from the Southern Xiongnu tribe." Cheng Wu said to Sima Yi before leaving.
After saying that, he turned around and left regardless of Sima Yi's expression.
Sima Yi glanced at Cheng Wu's back and curled his lips. The intelligence of Cheng Wu and Xia Houshang was almost the same, but the gap in the way of thinking and the different focus of the two caused the wisdom displayed by the two to be completely different.
level.
[How can a dead guy negotiate a promise with us?] Sima Yi curled his lips and thought.
The agreement between Sima Yi and Shan Yu was nothing but empty talk. He was neither the Han envoy nor the real messenger, and the so-called imperial edict was just stolen from him. As for Huchuquan and the others, what they thought was nothing more than nothing to Sima Yi.
Wishful thinking.
Even if they could see it, what could they do? At that time, 70% of the Southern Huns had been killed, and they were the ones who helped kill those 70%. Could it be that Huchuquan and the others could still make the decision to turn against them on the spot?
Of course it was impossible. At that time, Hu Chuquan and others could only break their teeth and swallow it. It was impossible to fall out with Sima Yi.
What's more, in the following period, even if Sima Yi didn't seize the opportunity to have a banquet and wipe out all the senior officials of the Southern Huns, mainly Huchuquan, it would be impossible for the Southern Huns to counterattack.
Later, when the Southern Xiongnu received the news that their rear was captured before Sima Yi, they wanted to trouble Sima Yi. At that time, Sima Yi, who was firmly entrenched in the camp, was not something that the remaining Southern Xiongnu could capture.
Besides, when Huchuquan receives the news that the rear has been taken away, reinforcements from the north of the Han army will arrive in two days at most. Not to mention a master of Sima Yi's level, even if Cao Zhen holds on to the camp with 20,000 new soldiers, he is not that
At that time, 30,000 Southern Xiongnu could defeat them.
Even the Han army's operation was a little better. The news that the rear of the Southern Xiongnu was taken away and the reinforcements of the Han army arrived one after another. With a pincer attack from both sides, the remaining Southern Xiongnu could ascend to heaven.
So Sima Yi is not worried about what will happen to Huchuquan and the others if he tricks them. He just bullies you for your low IQ. What's wrong? Come and bite me if you have the guts. I'm afraid of you?
Soon Cao Ang gathered the Lianqi Chenggang and the soldiers with stronger natural strength among the 20,000-strong army. Sima Yi took a look and saw that there were not many people. The total number of Lianqi Chenggang was only more than thirty.
There is not as many legions as Guan Yu.
However, including the naturally powerful soldiers, there were about five or six hundred. Sima Yi totaled them and handed them over to Dian Man, the son of Dian Wei.
Although it is impossible to determine the strength because the other party is also intensively trained, the other party guarantees that he is under the cloud energy. As long as he has the help of Qi Refiner Chenggang, he can withstand an ordinary internal energy separation. So, it goes without saying that he will be the one to charge into the battle.
After all, for things like charging into battle, although the leader's combat effectiveness is average if the command is strong enough, but if there is a strong general taking the lead and a good command, then the real power can be exerted.
"General Xiao Dian, when the time comes, remember which moves are tough, and you will use them." Sima Yi patted Dian Man on the shoulder, probably because smart people repel each other, and he likes this kind of thing. He is big, round, and has no brains. He said, "Fuck it."
Just do it guys.
"Ouch." Dianman touched his head and replied. Although he was not as strong as Dian Wei, standing next to Sima Yi, Sima Yi could clearly feel a strong momentum.
"What is your commonly used weapon?" Sima Yi asked.
Dianman took out a handhalberd from the armor on his waist, scratched his head and said to Sima Yi, "My weapons often break, so my father asked me to practice with the handhalberd first."
"Can you use heavy weapons?" Sima Yi looked at Dian Man's cooking utensils for cutting meat. He didn't look like he was ruthless enough in killing the enemy.
"Those who can use heavy weapons." Noriman nodded and replied angrily.
"Help find a bone, or a mace or something." Sima Yi greeted the people on the side, and soon a group of people came over carrying a pile of heavy weapons.
"Come on, try it." Sima Yi said to Dianman, and then Dianman tried one by one, and finally chose an iron birch stick as thick as a bowl. In fact, this stick was not a weapon. It was a stick made some time ago.
I got a bell-ringing stick from a temple in Chang'an when I went north.
However, I have to admit that the quality of this stick is very good. Even if it is not maintained at a low temperature, it has a quality comparable to the high-strength alloys of later generations. Likewise, this stick is not ordinary heavy.
"That's it." Dianman took two turns and felt a little heavy, but other weapons were not very easy to use, and things like sticks were simple and crude to use. "But what kind of material is this made of? It feels a bit like
It's wood, but it has the texture of iron."
"It doesn't matter what material it is made of. What's important is that you have to charge into battle tonight." Sima Yi didn't care what the weapon was made of, he needed to fight now.
"Then call me when the time comes!" Norimitsu waved the stick, and after getting used to it, he became more and more satisfied with the stick. The previous weapon broke into pieces after just a few plays.
After selecting the troops, Sima Yi sent people to inform the Southern Xiongnu Chanyu to prepare, and when the time came tonight, he would send the others on their way.
In fact, the Southern Xiongnu have been in a unstable state these past few days. After Huchuquan announced the imperial edict of the Han Dynasty, the Southern Xiongnu was already slightly divided. However, both sides tried their best to suppress it, and therefore they did not completely split. But for this reason,
As a result, both sides were trying to contain each other and wasted a lot of time.
Naturally, Sima Yi didn't know about these things, but he was already prepared. Even if there were no things that would increase the success rate, Sima Yi would continue with his plan.
Therefore, the current Sima Yi followed Fa Zheng's example and let all the soldiers eat and drink, then rest first, and then woke up all the soldiers after Xu hour, and then slowly organized the troops, with Cao Zhen as the vanguard commander and Dian Man as the vanguard general.
, leading the elite forward.
As for the other soldiers, they lined up neatly and marched in the direction of the southern Huns camp as they had trained before.
Such a big movement naturally could not escape Mao Jie's detection. After being awakened, Mao Jie followed the actions of the Han army from a distance. He always expressed appreciation for Sima Yi's decision, and the moonlight of the current half-moon was enough.
Fighting.
[It seems that Zhongda will probably take action when the second watch is approaching the third watch, and the moon will disappear near the end of the third watch. Even if the battle is defeated, he can retreat while the moon sets. It is indeed a good idea
At the right time, and the Southern Xiongnu had endured it for several days, it was almost reaching its limit. Preemptive strike could also avoid being passive.】
Mao Jie watched from a distance as the army led by Cao Ang and others advanced slowly in a strict formation. He felt a lot more relieved, as the slow advancement was enough based on this formation alone.
Just as Sima Yi led the army slowly towards the southern Xiongnu camp, Zhao Yun and Fa Zheng were running wildly a dozen miles behind the southern Xiongnu camp.
"Xiaozhi, are you sure that our army can frighten the Southern Huns and collapse just by relying on their momentum?" Zhao Yun asked with doubts while riding his horse forward.
"For us, it is not difficult to change the vibration of the hooves of six thousand war horses into the ground as if they were sixty thousand fine cavalry. The Southern Xiongnu is located to the north of Bingzhou. We are very clear about the strength we showed in the battle between Han and Xiongnu. , so once we come from the north, their existing fear will be magnified countless times!" Fazheng said with a chuckle.
"Furthermore, because the southern Xiongnu camp has to defend Cao Zixiu and others directly in front, the rear camp must be empty, and our reconnaissance cavalry has verified this. With the strength of the white horse, if we take advantage of the chaos, we can easily crush the opponent's rear camp," Fazheng saw. Zhao Yun still hesitated and immediately explained.
"Using chaos to disrupt the situation?" Zhao Yun frowned and said. The white horse is a pure light cavalry. Even if it has explosive melee damage, once it is slowed down by others, it basically means the end. But similarly, if it is a collapsed rebel army, Then the white horse's damage will increase to the maximum value.
"Yes, with the speed of the white horse and my judgment of the opponent's rear camp, as long as we defeat the rear camp in a very short time and show the fighting power of our 60,000 elite cavalry, the rear camp will roll back into the middle camp, and then This can cause Xiaoying." Fazheng News explained.
"Xiaozhi, how sure are you?" After Zhao Yun hesitated for a while, he decided to follow Fazheng's advice. After all, regardless of Fazheng's age, he is indeed one of the top advisers in the world today.
"More than 70%. Based on what I have learned along the way and my judgment on the psychology of the barbarians from all directions, if the Southern Xiongnu encounters such an attack, the possibility of Xiaoying is very high. And once Xiaoying occurs, the entire military camp will be in chaos. Baima The greatest advantage will bloom." After hearing Zhao Yun's question, Fazheng knew that the other party had agreed, and immediately expressed his judgment.
"In fact, the Southern Xiongnu did not leave any move to ambush or block the enemy in their rear, which can already explain a lot of problems. It is obvious that the Southern Xiongnu believed that they could not resist the Han army coming from behind them. "Fazheng continued to preach to Zhao Yun.
"Is that so? No wonder, I felt a little strange along the way." Zhao Yun suddenly realized after hearing this.
"Yeah, that's it." Fazheng replied with a smile. In fact, Fazheng knew very well that Zhao Yun's strange things were not in this aspect, but it was good that he had led him astray now.
"Then how far can we let go of the sound of horses' hooves hitting the ground?" Zhao Yun rushed forward at high speed. From time to time, scouts came back from the front and merged into the army. Zhao Yun's white horse Yi Cong relied on the wind to make the sound of horses' hooves hitting the ground. Eliminated to almost nothing.
Fazheng looked at the half-moon that had tilted one section to the west, took a general look around, and estimated the limits of his field of vision.
"Three hundred steps. When you reach three hundred steps, let go of the control of the sound of the horse's hooves, and reversely amplify the sound of the horse's hoofs hitting the ground. Then use whatever tricks General Zhao has. At a distance of three hundred steps, the white horse is at full speed. Do you need fifteen breaths?" After Fazheng estimated the distance, he immediately turned to Zhao Yun and warned.
