Cao Cao was experienced in a hundred battles and was familiar with the art of war, and he had both advanced military theories as a foundation and many practical bases as a basis.

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to call Cao Cao an excellent 'war master' at this time.

The armies of the two sides that were fighting, Cao Cao saw the pros and cons at a glance.

His own cavalry is extremely fast and has a strong attack.

And it has already broken through the defensive formation of the infantry of the Fenwu Army.

If nothing else, all that remains is a one-sided slaughter of the infantry of the Fenwu Army.

At the cost of two thousand more horses, his own cavalry can defeat this infantry of 10,000 horses.

3,000 cavalry for 10,000 infantry is appropriate.

As a result, Cao Cao issued this tactic of 'delaying and killing the enemy'.

The benefits of this tactic are twofold.

The first is 'killing pain but not killing', which makes the Fenwu army suffer huge losses, but it is helpless.

Because the armies of the two sides have already been mixed together, even the Suzaku Army, which is proficient in archery, does not dare to release arrows at will.

The second is 'convenient retreat'.

Because this is not a encounter between cavalry and infantry, in the current battlefield, on the side of the cavalry, there is another unit of the Fenwu Army, the Xuanwu Army.

The Xuanwu Army is characterized by strong defense, but its speed is very slow, which determines that it cannot have strong attack power.

These are the places that Cao Cao is very afraid of but can't look down on.

It was only because of fear that Cao Cao would let Yu Ban and Le Jin adopt the tactic of 'delaying and killing the enemy'.

In case the Xuanwu army turned around and blocked the return route of its cavalry, its own cavalry could quickly evacuate.

Don't be lured into a situation where you can't retreat far away.

Cao Cao's tactics are deceptively simple.

However, without the experience of thousands of wars, it is impossible to make such a judgment in a short period of time.

The reason why the strong are strong is that many times it is because they have experienced more.

Han Cheng was caught by Cao Cao with such an opportunity, not because he was not capable enough.

On the contrary, Han Cheng at this time is not the 'Wuxia Ameng' a few years ago.

In the past few years, Han Cheng has studied a large number of military books in his spare time, plus personally observed the battles of Zhang Liao, Ju Yi and others, as well as his unique 'experience of later generations'.

Therefore, Han Cheng at this time can also be regarded as an excellent commander.

The reason why the current scene appeared was mainly because Han Cheng and Cao Cao gave orders too quickly.

It was almost so that both sides had not had time to adjust the military formations of the troops, and they just attacked forward according to the formation prepared in advance.

Otherwise, how could there be a situation where Qingzhou soldiers fought against Xuanwu Army and infantry against cavalry?

How could Han Cheng and Cao Cao make such a low-level mistake?

On the battlefield, it is ever-changing; It's ever-changing.

When Han Cheng realized that he was wrong, he gave Cao Cao's order to 'delay the killing of the enemy' at the same time, and gave the order to Zhang He, the commander of the ordinary soldiers, to temporarily retreat.

The temporary withdrawal of troops will not decide anything.

Just for a better victory.

At the same time, Han Cheng ordered Han Hao, the chief general of the Blue Dragon Army, and Gao Ran to lead the 20,000 Blue Dragon Army of the Chinese Army to suppress and replace Zhang He's 10,000 soldiers.

If you are wrong, do not run away from it; Timely stop loss is the best policy.

Han Cheng's follow-up actions also have a certain purpose.

This kind of melee scene is undoubtedly the most beneficial for the Blue Dragon Army.

Because the cavalry could not organize an effective offensive formation, the victory or defeat between the cavalry at this time mainly depended on the cavalry's individual combat ability.

In the Qinglong Army, there are cavalry of the Southern Xiongnu who are brave and good at fighting; There are also brave and unscrupulous cavalry of the Xianbei Department of Bingzhou.

In terms of individual combat ability, Han Cheng believed that Cao Cao's cavalry would not be the opponent of his own Blue Dragon Army.

......

Yu Ban and Le Jin are 'delaying the killing of the enemy' in accordance with the orders given by Cao Cao.

However, the infantry of the Fenwu Army retreated one after another.

Not far away, a large force of cavalry of the Fenwu Army poured in.

This has been beyond the expectations of Ban and Lejin.

When the cavalry comes forward, how can they 'delay and kill the enemy'?

However, Cao Cao did not give any other orders for the withdrawal of troops, so he could only follow Cao Cao's latest orders.

Cao Cao in the distance saw the changes in the military formation of the Fenwu Army, and instantly became vigilant.

Put on a cautious look.

This is a quality that is necessary for a good commander.

At no time on the battlefield can the enemy be underestimated.

Since ancient times, none of the generals who underestimated the enemy had a good end.

In fact, when he saw the infantry of the Fenwu Army retreating, Cao Cao had the answer in his heart: the Fenwu Army had a countermeasure.

Seeing the cavalry of the Fenwu Army coming forward, Cao Cao judged the intention of the Fenwu Army - to exchange cavalry for cavalry.

Change? Han Cheng's forces were backed by the grassland, the source of war horses was sufficient, and Cao Cao's wealth was tight and he couldn't afford to change it.

Don't change? Then he will have to Mingjin to withdraw his troops, and the cavalry of Yu Ban and Lejin will quickly retreat, so as to be preserved.

However, at this time, there were not many of the 10,000 Qingzhou soldiers who fought with the Xuanwu Army who could escape back.

Cao Cao really didn't expect that under his own advantage, in the blink of an eye, he was 'turned over' by Han Cheng.

Cao Cao is also a decisive person, and in a very short period of time, he has a new countermeasure - change! Maximum change!

It doesn't matter if you don't have a war horse for the time being, there is always a way to buy it; But if he discarded the Qingzhou soldiers who had followed him for many years, he couldn't get back any amount of wealth.

So, Cao Cao immediately ordered to the two generals beside him: "Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Yuan, you two quickly led the 10,000 cavalry of the Chinese army to press." Bypass the Xuanwu army at the front and attack the cavalry of the Fenwu army from the left and right. Since they want to change, then we will change it completely. ”

After Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan took the order, Cao Cao issued an order again: "30,000 Chinese troops, line up the formation, press all up, and charge!" Kill! ”

The changes in the military formation of the Fenwu Army are not so flawless.

For Cao Cao, who is good at capturing fighters, there is indeed an opportunity to take advantage of.

Otherwise, how could Cao Cao order the whole army to be pressed?

No one is willing to make an unfounded 'bet', let alone their own 'bet'.

The cavalry charged, the infantry retreated, and even the most well-trained troops could not be in order.

Among them, there is bound to be chaos.

Because now is a chaotic war, not a peacetime exercise.

How could Cao Cao miss this chaotic opportunity?

And the number of people who participated in the battle of the two armies was roughly equal, both 80,000 horses.

But 10,000 archers in the Fenwu army could not come in handy.

Therefore, Cao Cao's army was temporarily in a period of superiority in terms of strength.

Time must not be lost, and loss will not come again.

Cao Cao's army charged!

Han Cheng looked at the way Cao Cao's army charged, and unconsciously sighed in his heart: "In terms of the ability to arrange troops on the battlefield, Cao Cao is much more powerful than himself.

Although he seemed to have a little advantage just now, in the blink of an eye, Cao Cao found an opportunity, led the army, and directly pressed on him.

The only person who can fight Cao Cao in front of the battle is probably the first general under Yuan Shao, the dead Ju Yi! ”

In addition to sighing, Han Cheng also issued an emergency military order: "Xu Huang led 25,000 soldiers to press!" ”

If you fight, then fight!

For a time, Cao Cao invested 60,000 troops, and Han Cheng on the opposite side also invested 60,000 troops.

If you look closely, you will find that Cao Cao's army has a slight upper hand.

An hour later

The 120,000 troops in the field were still in the melee, and in a short time, it was impossible to tell the winner.

Cao Cao knew: If nothing else, he has a great chance of winning this battle.

Although both sides were 60,000 horses, with the passage of time, the advantages of Cao Cao's army in good warfare could be revealed.

In terms of staying power, Cao Cao has never been afraid of anyone, and of course, Cao Caojun will not be afraid of anyone.

At this time, Han Cheng in the Fenwu Army could not be as calm as Cao Cao.

Because the defeat of the Fenwu army has gradually been revealed.

Han Cheng said to Zhao Yun, the general beside him: "Zilong, you lead two thousand 'Heavenly Dragon Guards' to kill the army in front of me."

In the past, you once made Yuan Shaojun frightened; Today, I'll see if you can let Cao Cao's army flee.

Keep one thing in mind: in Cao Cao's army, although no one's martial arts can beat you, there are many generals in Cao Cao's army.

Wolves bite tigers to death, you don't have to fight for too long. Over time, it will change! ”

After Zhao Yun listened to the order, he said to Han Cheng: "The lord's order, Zilong doesn't dare to disobey!" But I heard that Cao Cao has an elite cavalry 'Tiger and Leopard Cavalry', what if the 'Tiger and Leopard Cavalry' attacks? The subordinates want to be by your side and protect you. ”

Although the war was urgent, Han Cheng still smiled with satisfaction.

How can such a loyal person not be passed down through the ages?

It's just that when Zhao Yun's voice just fell, Huang Zhong, who had just retired from the Chinese army, said to Zhao Yun with an unkind face: "Zilong, although your martial arts are higher than mine, I don't like to hear what you say!" With me here, who dares to take a step beyond the thunder pool? ”

Huang Zhong was good at charging, but because of the military order, he was forced to retreat.

The fire in the belly is nowhere to start.

After hearing Zhao Yun's words, Huang Zhong felt the contempt in it, and he slammed it in front of him.

It's just that Zhao Yun's martial arts are too high, so he is not very comfortable.

Zhao Yun understood Huang Zhong's anger and didn't care about it.

Seeing Wei Yan behind Han Cheng and the 10,000 Vermilion Bird Army that had just withdrawn unscathed, he was instantly relieved.

said to Han Cheng: "Lord, Zilong is going!" ”

At the same time, Cao Cao said to Cao Zhen, the righteous son behind him: "Zhen'er, the situation on the battlefield is chaotic now, but our army has the advantage.

If I were Han Cheng, I would definitely send a top fierce general to lead the most elite cavalry into the chaotic army and save the defeat.

This is too great a loss for us to be allowed to appear.

You led the 'Tiger and Leopard Riders' to attack from the left in a roundabout way, pretending to attack where Han Cheng was.

Then, halfway through, quickly rush into the chaos to find this elite army and defeat it!

Everyone in the world said how powerful Han Cheng's cavalry was.

Today, I'll see if my 'Tiger and Leopard Rider' can make Han Cheng's elite troops flee in the wilderness.

But Zhen'er, you have to pay attention to one thing, although you are born with divine power and extraordinary martial arts.

But don't fight, Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong in the Fenwu Army are not idle people.

Entangled with you, there will always be a time when I will take you down. ”

Cao Zhen said 'promise' and took the order.
