After several days of marching, Xiang Ji personally led the army to Daijun.
I came here just to deal with Wu Heng who was about to go south.
Although Xiang Ji only brought 30,000 cavalry with him on this trip, he was not afraid of Wu Heng and Xiang Ji.
Just kidding, these 30,000 cavalry can be said to be the elite among the elite.
Not to mention the five thousand Cang Dragon Cavalry for the moment, the other five thousand Gao Lan's troops were also promoted to elite cavalry after successive battles.
You know, those are the elites who were saved from the fierce battles with the Xiliang Iron Cavalry and the trapped camp. Naturally, there is no need to mention their combat prowess.
Then there are the 20,000 original Hebei cavalry brought by Boss Cao.
This is also an elite division.
It's just that they haven't encountered a good general before, and their combat power has been buried.
Now, this cavalry has become Boss Cao's exclusive force. Under the personal training of Cao Jun's generals Xiahou Dun and Cao Ren, it is far better than before.
Yes, this cavalry is Boss Cao's exclusive force.
You must know that in Pengcheng, Xiang Ji personally promised Cao Cao that he would help him build a cavalry force to help him realize his dream and gallop beyond the Great Wall.
And when 20,000 Hebei cavalry surrendered and were escorted to Pengcheng, Boss Cao couldn't sit still any longer.
Waiting for Xiang Ji to set it up for himself? Then he still doesn’t know the Year of the Monkey and the Moon of the Horse.
Can Boss Cao not understand why there is no such shop after passing this village?
Showing his identity as Xiang Ji's father-in-law, showing off his kindness to you in two states, and then relying on his old man to betray his old man, Jia Xu, Lu Su and other important ministers of Chu State compromised in the face of the rogue Boss Cao.
There is no way, who told this to be promised by the overlord himself?
What happens after that is very simple.
Faced with Boss Cao's many tactics, the frightened Hebei cavalry who had just surrendered decisively threw himself into Cao Cao's warm embrace.
After more than half a year of reorganization and training, the Hebei Iron Cavalry set off under the personal leadership of Boss Cao, whose combat capabilities had been improved again.
Yes, after this cavalry unit became Boss Cao's exclusive unit, its designation was naturally determined, that is, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry!
Obviously, because the cavalry force he finally formed back then was beaten to pieces by Xiang Yu, Boss Cao has never forgotten this.
Having an elite cavalry of his own has even become an obsession in his heart.
Now that the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are beginning to take shape, Boss Cao naturally wants to pull them out to show off, and even see if there is still a battle to fight.
Unexpectedly, I happened to catch up with Wu Heng who was going south.
This is exactly what Boss Cao wants.
During the civil war, Boss Cao still felt a little sorry for the loss of his Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, but if it was a foreign enemy, there would be no problem. Even if all the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry were defeated, Boss Cao would not even frown.
Now, Cao Cao's tiger and leopard cavalry have all been replaced with the bilateral stirrups prepared by Xiang Ji, and their combat power has been greatly increased. This makes Cao Cao full of confidence in fighting Wu Heng's march south this time.
As for why Xiang Ji dared to equip bilateral stirrups on a large scale?
Just kidding, Lu Bu's Xiliang cavalry were beaten to the point of almost losing their structure. Now that Hebei is under his control, there will only be more and more war horses and cavalry in the future. Could it be that Xiang Ji doesn't dare to equip them on a large scale even with this advantage?
?
Only equipped with a small number of troops secretly? Xiang Ji himself looked down upon himself. How could a time-traveler be so messy?
"Xiang Ji, my son, why don't we just go out of the fortress and go to the foot of Bailang Mountain to destroy Wu Heng, instead of defending here?
How do you know that Wu Heng will definitely invade from here and head south?"
Cao Cao didn't understand Xiang Ji's decision to ambush his army in Dai County.
But how did Cao Cao know that Xiang Ji had Xu You, the best spy agent?
Through Xu You's continuous flow of news, Xiang Ji already knew the exact time of Wu Heng's army going south, as well as the various changes that occurred within the Wu Heng tribe due to this move south.
Unexpectedly, just because of Yuan Shang's piece of cake, a power struggle occurred within Wu Heng.
Tadun killed his adoptive father Qiu Liju and became the leader of the new generation of Wu Heng Tribe, the Great Chanyu.
After that, he frequently contacted Yuan Shang's envoys, and finally decided to send 150,000 Wuheng cavalry south, starting from Zhuojun.
Nowadays, Wu Heng's cavalry was ready to invade the south at any time, so Xiang Ji naturally led his army to Zhuo County early to set up defenses.
"Lord Taishan, how can a major military matter be a piece of cake? If I, the lonely king, were not completely sure, I would never lead the army to wait here."
Xiang Ji is still full of respect for his father-in-law.
Among all the father-in-laws, Boss Cao is the one who likes me the most.
Apart from these 20,000 cavalry, what else does he want to live by? Has he ever done anything inappropriate with the help of his prestige? No, not at all.
My father-in-law is the real hero, the national hero!
"In that case, then you make arrangements. Cao and my Tiger and Leopard Cavalry must fight on the front line!"
After all, this is Cao Cao's real purpose.
Yes, Cao Cao would not do anything to preserve his strength.
Just kidding, I don’t want to be self-reliant, so I can show my strength to who else?
Nowadays, it is rare to fight against foreigners and realize his long-cherished wish. Can't Cao Cao be excited?
As for fighting as the main force, the number of troops is getting smaller and smaller? Who is my uncle Cao? Can he still leave Cao and I without any troops?
Obviously, Cao Cao calculated this account very clearly.
That means you, Xiang Ji, send troops, and I, Cao, will guard the outside of the fortress for you.
In this way, you can conquer the country with peace of mind, and Cao and I can achieve our long-cherished wish.
"Don't worry, Lord Taishan, this is natural.
According to calculations made by Mr. Guo Jia and Pang Tong's military advisor, the most likely places for Wu Heng to enter the customs are Macheng and Guangning.
The lonely king thought that Lord Taishan, your tiger and leopard cavalry should go directly to Macheng to fortify the city, and the lonely king would personally lead the army to guard Guangning.
As long as the Wu Heng army is discovered and reported to each other, in this battle, the Wu Heng people must be beaten so that they will never dare to invade our border!"
Yes, Xiang Ji intends to complete his achievements in one battle.
It would be better if we can directly destroy Wu Heng. Even if we can't destroy them, we still have to fight them so that they will tremble all over when they see my pass.
Xiang Ji would never be lenient when dealing with invaders.
We have just defeated Lu Bu now, and Hebei has not yet been completely occupied. Otherwise, I will directly send troops to Bailang Mountain and dig up all the ancestral graves of you Wuheng people.
But there was no way, Yuan Shang's fly was still on the Hu Pass, so Xiang Ji could only let Tai Shici, who had not yet recovered from his injury, go into battle and lead his infantry to closely monitor Yuan Shang.
Otherwise, who knows when this guy will come out and disgust himself?
