"Wen Ze, in your opinion, how can our army ambush Lin's army, catch it by surprise, and lay a good foundation for defeating Yunzi Camp?"
Cao Hong's military force was comparable to that of Yu Jin. Although it was a little higher, it was indeed limited. On the contrary, he was slightly inferior to Yu Jin in terms of uniting the army and training soldiers.
Therefore, among the five hussars, Cao Hong has the best relationship with Yu Jin. At least the two of them have equal abilities, and they will have many more common topics when chatting.
The five hussars in the Cao camp were all heroes of the moment. Lin Feng had also been covetous of the attributes of these few. They could only belong to two camps. The Cao family and the Xiahou family had entangled blood lines, so in the end Lin Feng still died.
The Xiahou brothers belong to the first echelon, and both of them have commanding force values of 90+.
Cao Rentong's military value is double 85+, which is only slightly inferior to the Xiahou brothers. He can also be called the top general in the Three Kingdoms era.
As for Cao Hong and Yu Jin, one has a strength of over 80, and the other has a command of over 80. Except for Lin Feng's general Xing Yiyi, who is not very conspicuous when used, if they are placed in any other camp, they will definitely be the best choice, and they can be regarded as the best in the local area.
commander in chief.
When Yu Jin heard Cao Hong's question, he stared at the battle map on the commander's case in deep thought, and fell into a long examination for a while.
Seeing that Yu Jin didn't answer for a while, Cao Hong also turned his attention to the map, trying to find the most advantageous ambush for his side.
After a long time, Cao Hong and Yu Jin said almost at the same time: "How about we try it on the banks of the Milishui River?"
After saying that, the two of them raised their heads at the same time, looked at each other for a long time, and stretched out their right hands to hold each other tightly: "The true hero has seen the same thing."
Zhao Yun led Yunziying to march north, and Pei Yuanshao volunteered to serve as the vanguard officer.
Along the way, Pei Yuanshao, a pioneer officer, did everything he could to build roads and bridges over mountains and rivers.
When passing through Mengshan Mountain, Pei Yuanshaosheng was afraid that there was a large force of Cao's army ambushed in the deep valleys and dense forests. He personally went to the valleys and dense forests to conduct reconnaissance, refusing to let go of any clues.
It's a pity that he seems to have overestimated the ability of Cao Jun's generals. In Mengshan, a place suitable for ambush, he did not find any of Cao Jun's soldiers. It seemed that such an excellent strategic place was ignored by Cao Jun.
After crossing Mengshan Mountain, the road ahead is flat and there are no more obstacles.
You only need to go north along the official road. Most of the roads on both sides are wheat fields that have just overwintered. It is not yet time to head, and it is impossible to hide soldiers in knee-high wheat fields.
Therefore, after the Yunzi Battalion passed through Mengshan Mountain, the marching speed suddenly doubled. Pei Yuanshao even led the vanguard battalion to reach a distance of nearly ten miles, which attracted Zhao Yun to send people on flying horses several times to summon him and order him.
Press your feet and do not continue to advance forward, lest you encounter enemy troops and not receive timely support from the Chinese army.
After receiving Zhao Yun's reminder, Pei Yuanshao slowly suppressed his anxiety and stationed his horse on the south bank of the Mishui River, no longer rushing to cross the river.
The Mishui River is a tributary of the Sishui River. The river is not wide, only about four feet, but the current is very fast. In addition, the water is deeper than the chest. Without a boat bridge, the army cannot successfully cross the river.
On the Mishui River, about every twenty or thirty miles, there is always a wooden bridge built by the villagers voluntarily to facilitate the passage of the people living on both sides.
It's just that these small bridges are too simple. They are just four or five tree trunks placed side by side and tied together with hemp ropes.
It's not a problem to pass a few villagers with an ox cart. Not only can't many people get on when a large army crosses the river at the same time, but if too many people walk, it may break the wooden bridge.
As for boat boats, there is no need to think too much about how there could be big boats in such a narrow river. All the people plying on the river are canoes and big wooden basins, which cannot bear the heavy burden of crossing the river.
Pei Yuanshao ordered the soldiers of the Pioneer Battalion to prepare to build a pontoon bridge, and at the same time urged the horses to run back and forth for more than 20 miles on the south bank of the Mishui River.
After some reconnaissance, Pei Yuanshao determined that there was no danger here, so he Pegasus reported the detected information near Mi River to the Chinese army, and asked Mr. Zhao to send him baggage and logistics personnel as soon as possible so that he could update the troops more quickly.
Build the floating bridge securely.
Fourth Master Zhao met all Pei Yuanshao's requirements.
The two of them don't deal with each other for a day or a half, and they have enough trust and tacit understanding between each other.
At the same time that the pontoon bridge built under Pei Yuanshao's supervision was being erected, Zhao Yun also led the Chinese army to the banks of the Milishui River.
"Yuan Shao, after crossing the Mi River, your forward army must not advance as before. Liangfu County is only more than thirty miles away from the Mi River, and Liangfu County is the southern barrier of Fenggao City."
Fenggao City, the capital of Taishan County, is surrounded by four county towns: Ying County to the north, Mou County to the east, Liangfu County to the south, and Bo County to the west.
If you want to attack Fenggao City, you must first open these four barriers.
Among the four counties, Liangfu County is particularly difficult to attack.
This city is not big, but it is built on the mountain with its back to Youlai Mountain, so it is not afraid of siege. Moreover, Youlai Mountain is not high. Fenggao City can send reinforcements with supplies to cross Youlai Mountain at any time to support Liangfucheng.
It also increased the attack
Difficulty of Liangfu County.
Before Zhao Siye invaded Taishan County, he naturally did his homework before the war.
Among the three armies of the Lin Army, the Yunzi Battalion had the most flexible targets. In the first battle from Lu County to Taishan County, they could choose to attack either Nanwuyang or Chengxian.
After capturing Nanwuyang, passing through Mengshan Mountain and crossing Mi River, we can attack Liangfu County, the southern barrier of Fenggao City.
To capture Cheng County, you can move east along the Wen River, directly to the foot of Bo County City, and attack the western barrier of Fenggao City.
Both routes were available, but in the end Mr. Zhao chose the attack route of attacking Nanwuyang City first and then Liangfucheng.
There was no other reason than that Fourth Master Zhao was not good at water warfare and was worried that he would be attacked by Cao Jun's navy while marching along the Wen River.
At present, the Yunzi Camp has troops approaching the Mi River. As long as they cross the Mi River, they can directly attack Liangfu County, so Mr. Zhao is also feeling a little excited at the moment.
The military situation on the battlefield was changing rapidly, and Fourth Master Zhao did not want to end up capsized in the gutter before joining the other two armies at Fenggao City, leaving a laughing stock for the ages.
The purpose of reminding Pei Yuanshao is to ensure the safety when crossing the river and after. If he is attacked by the enemy when he is crossing the river, let alone win in defeat. It is a miracle to win a small defeat. It is even more likely.
Even if half of the soldiers who crossed the river were wiped out by the enemy, the troops crossing the river would die in the river as well as in the hands of the enemy. Only a small number of lucky ones who did not have time to cross the river would have their morale dropped to the bottom.
Dashan deserves to be called a heroic soldier in the world.
Pei Yuanshao received the reminder from Fourth Master Zhao and naturally understood it.
"Don't worry, Fourth Master, we will start crossing the river later. I will lead my troops to escort the baggage convoy across the river first. Even if we encounter an enemy attack, we can use the baggage convoy to set up a defensive formation to support the whole army until the entire army has completed crossing the river."
Fourth Master Zhao nodded: "Thank you for all the hard work, Yuan Shao. When this battle is over, I will definitely show you my merits in front of Third Brother."
After hearing this, Pei Yuanshao became a little less interested.
"Fourth Master, to be honest, I lost my lord to my lord in Youzhou in the North. As the commander of the personal guard battalion, I was captured alive by the enemy general on the battlefield. This is not only a shame for me personally, but also for the entire family.
The shame of the guard camp. It's a pity that I will never have the opportunity to follow the lord. In this case, let me try my best on the battlefield and do my best to be loyal to the lord. Military achievements and so on, really
It’s not what I want to pursue now.”
After saying that, Pei Yuanshao shook the silk rein in his hand vigorously and urged his horse to rush onto the pontoon bridge. The whole army was the first to set foot on the north bank of Mi River.
The pontoon bridge built by the forward army was four to five feet wide, allowing seven or eight soldiers to cross the bridge at the same time. The Yunzi Battalion only had more than 20,000 troops, and it took no more than two hours for the whole group to cross the Milishui River.
After Pei Yuanshao crossed the river, he rode forward in a circle of about three or four miles to detect whether the north bank of the river was safe.
