The reason why this battle was easily won was because of Han Cheng's all-round training of the soldiers on weekdays, and secondly, because Yuan Shaojun's commander was not properly arranged.

Han Cheng's all-round training of the soldiers on weekdays is mainly reflected in the Blue Dragon Army and the Vermilion Bird Army.

The cavalry of the Fenwu Army was divided into the Sharp Knife Army, the Sharp Blade Army, and the Blue Dragon Army.

Among them, the Sharp Knife Army and the Sharp Blade Army are all composed of brave warriors from ethnic minorities.

The men of these two armies are skilled in riding, and the horses are their legs, and they swing their legs freely; Without horses, they are like without legs.

The people of these two armies are all elite soldiers of the Southern Xiongnu and Xianbei tribes, and their combat effectiveness is so strong that there is naturally no need to say more.

Relatively speaking, the Blue Dragon Army in the early stage was relatively weak.

Han Cheng came from later generations and possessed developed knowledge.

Although he had never trained cavalry, he still had a lot of ideas.

For example, let the Green Dragon Army train riding skills in the northern prairies; Specialized training formations in the cities of the state.

This saves time and makes the most of the space. It's a win-win.

After all these years of development, the combat effectiveness of the Blue Dragon Army has become stronger and stronger.

When the two Blue Dragon Army, which were training in two places at the same time, were combined into one, it was no longer as simple as one plus one.

If they fight alone, they may not be as good as the Sharp Knife Army; But if they form a battle formation, the Sharp Knife Army is no match for them.

This is the result of training battle formations, and it is not the strength of one person to be defeated.

Such a powerful cavalry, under the leadership of Huang Zhong and other fierce generals, rushed towards Yuan Shaojun's army outside the camp.

The moment was like the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves, and the result was no suspense.

As for Yuan Shaojun, the failure was entirely due to the improper arrangement of the coach Gao Gan.

Gao Gan may be an all-round talent in civil and military affairs, but Gao Gan's greatest ability is definitely not to command the army, but to figure out Yuan Shao's thoughts.

Yuan Shao is the origin of the Runan Yuan family of the 'Fourth World and Three Princes'.

The Runan Yuan family, one of the largest families in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, naturally married with most of the big families.

Therefore, there are many children and nephews of Yuan Shao.

When Yuan Shao occupied Jizhou, Qingzhou, and Youzhou, Yuan Shu was defeated in Xuzhou, and he came to Jizhou to take refuge.

If these people are scholars, who is not a person who is familiar with the scriptures?

If you learn martial arts, who is not an extraordinary person in martial arts?

Gao Gan can still stand out among them, how can he do it without a 'unique job'?

Therefore, on this night, Gao Gan had just become the commander, and when the army's morale was unstable, he still tried his best to defy public opinion and decisively send troops.

It was precisely because Gao Gan knew that Yuan Shao was anxious.

At this time, there was nothing wrong with the senior cadres, however, the mistake was in the way the troops were dispatched.

The best way to attack the camp at night is Juyi's method - "breaking the face with points".

Concentrate elite troops and storm the gate of the camp, if you take advantage of the cover of night, you can get twice the result with half the effort.

However, Gao Gan did not want to adopt Juyi's method.

It's not that this method is bad, it's just that I'm not convinced.

After all, Ju Yi is his 'predecessor', or the kind that was masturbated.

Gao Gan's method was to have the army attack the Fenwu army camp from five directions at the same time.

This method may work during the day, making it difficult for Han Cheng to take care of;

But at night, there are many disadvantages to this method.

First of all, Han Cheng's troops will not be mobilized everywhere under the unclear situation, and they will definitely gather at one point to support everywhere at any time.

Then there was the long night, not only the defending Fenwu army could not see clearly, but even the attacking Yuan Shaojun could not see clearly.

In this case, the advantages of the Suzaku Army will be reflected.

Because the Suzaku Army used to train for night battles for a while.

The situation of the senior cadres is unknown, and he suffered a big loss.

Since he already knew that he had suffered a loss and that the initial battle was unfavorable, he should immediately withdraw his troops and stick to the big camp and not come out.

But Gao Gan knew the fate of the withdrawal now, so he still had a trace of luck that Han Cheng 'didn't know'.

However, after dawn, the strategists in the Fenwu Army made a decisive move and instantly broke the 'veil' on Gao Gan's body.

As a result, there was no suspense about the outcome of this battle.

According to the statistics of the Fenwu Army after the war, more than 10,000 Yuan Shaojun were killed in this battle, more than 40,000 people were captured, and countless war materials were obtained.

......

The news of Gao Gan's defeat was learned by Yuan Shao as a large number of deserters fled back to Yuan Shao's camp.

When Yuan Shao heard the news, he was furious.

Yuan Shao couldn't understand why his 80,000 army was beaten by the Fenwu Army in just one night and half a day.

Did Han Cheng deliberately show weakness to the enemy, or was the talent of the high-ranking cadres too mediocre?

If it is the former, you will not lose anything; But if it's the latter, the bet between himself and Ju Yi will be lost.

I have to apologize to Ju Yi.

This is not allowed, and it is absolutely not allowed.

Thinking of this, Yuan Shao shouted at the soldiers outside the camp tent: "Is Gao Gan dead?" ”

The soldiers knew the temper of the lord, so they could only reply silently: "Lord, the situation is unknown now, and I haven't seen General Gao come back for the time being." ”

Yuan Shao's angry shouts came to his soldiers again: "Hurry up and look for it, and when you find it, bring it to me." ”

After the soldiers replied with a 'no', they hurried away.

......

Among the Yuan Shao's army fighting on the banks of the Yi River, Gao Gan was the first to flee, and at the same time, it was precisely because of Gao Gan's escape that Yuan Shao's army failed.

After Gao Gan escaped for ten miles, he still had palpitations.

This Huang Zhong is not an ordinary murderer.

Yan Liang and Wen Chou are known as the three armies of Yongguan, but in front of this Huang Zhong, they are not a fart.

Seeing that there were no pursuers behind him, Gao Gan quietly put his mind at ease.

Then think about how to explain to Yuan Shao. After all, he was defeated.

A quarter of an hour later, Gao Gan came to his senses.

I found a place to make myself disgraced as if I had just gone through a big battle.

Then outside the camp, he put on a look of gathering stragglers.

Sure enough, as Gao Gan expected, not long after, Yuan Shao's personal soldiers came when they heard the news.

However, at this time, Gao Gan was very busy.

Seeing Yuan Shao's personal soldiers coming, a smug smile rose on the corner of his mouth.

After the soldiers conveyed Yuan Shao's order to Gao Gan, they asked Yi Bi to continue to gather the stragglers, and then rushed back to the camp with Gao Gan and met Yuan Shao.

As soon as he arrived outside Yuan Shao's tent, Gao Gan immediately knelt down.

While kowtowing violently to the tent, he shouted loudly: "Lord, it's my lack of ability that has disappointed you." I have no face to face you, I am ashamed of you......"

As he spoke, he touched a handful of snot and tears.

Yuan Shao's personal soldiers are not good at standing next to Gao Gan, if Yuan Shao's personal soldiers stand next to Gao Gan, the taste is different.

Yuan Shao, who was in the tent, heard Gao Gan's shout, and he knew Gao Gan's thoughts, and the anger in his heart couldn't help but decrease a little.

In any case, Gao Gan's attitude is much stronger than Ju Yi's.

But Yuan Shao's heart was still angry, so he said to the soldiers on the side: "Let him kneel for two hours first, and let him come in after two hours." ”

The soldiers had no choice but to keep Yuan Shao's words firmly in mind.

The news of the defeat spread like the wind, and it spread throughout Yuan Shao's entire camp in an instant.

Those who are sensitive, such as Guo Tu, who recommends high-level cadres to lead the army.

After hearing the news, he just stayed quietly in his tent, thinking about it behind closed doors, while waiting for Yuan Shao's 'thunderous' summons.

There are people who are loyal to Yuan Shao, and they are hurrying towards Yuan Shao's camp.

Such as the upright Tian Feng.

Yuan Shao's personal soldiers saw Tian Feng coming, so they first went in to report it, and after a few breaths, they walked out of the tent.

said respectfully to Tian Feng: "Don't drive Tian, the lord has an invitation." ”

Tian Feng was also not polite, and walked straight into Yuan Shao's tent.

As soon as he entered the camp, Tian Feng saw Yuan Shao's face was pale, and his face was full of anger.

But Tian Feng is Tian Feng, and he has always been the master who has one saying one and two saying two.

What do I care about your face?

He said bluntly to Yuan Shao: "My lord, in this battle, not only was our grain and grass burned, but even the army that attacked the camp of the Fenwu Army was killed countless times and returned defeated.

This is a big defeat, and no matter how many troops are deployed, it will not be able to save the defeat.

Therefore, our top priority now is how to withdraw our troops back to Jizhou, rather than holding them accountable.

When I returned to Jizhou, there was time, and it would not be too late to pursue it when the time came. ”

Yuan Shao heard Tian Feng's words and woke up like a dream.

Although Tian Feng's words are very straightforward, they are very unpleasant.

But at this time, Yuan Shao didn't have the heart to blame him.

At this time, he dared to come to persuade himself bluntly, what is this not a loyal minister? As for the way the loyal ministers speak, let's put it aside for the time being.

The most important thing is that there are two people in the camp tent, Yuan Shao and Tian Feng, who do not lose face.

So, Yuan Shao said softly to Tian Feng: "Yuan Hao, how do you say I can end it now?" ”

Tian Feng's heart moved slightly, and he still said bluntly: "The lord can first investigate the responsibility of the senior cadres, and then make it clear to the soldiers that if necessary, he can also kill the senior cadres to calm the hearts of the army." ”

After Tian Feng finished speaking, seeing that Yuan Shao was unmoved, he continued: "Clear rewards and punishments are the way to success. ”

After Yuan Shao listened to Tian Feng's words, his face was not pale, but his heart was turbulent.

"What Tian Feng said is reasonable, but because of the matter of high-ranking cadres leading the army, he once made a bet with Ju Yi, and he lost, but he wanted to apologize to Ju Yi?

How can I apologize to Ju Yi?

Besides, although the battle was defeated and a lot of soldiers and horses were lost, it did not hurt his muscles and bones.

As long as the families of Jizhou and Qingzhou still support themselves, they can make a comeback at any time.

Ju Yi is a person from Xiliang, if he apologizes, will the families of Jizhou and Qingzhou have other ideas, and then have some other careful thoughts.

In this way, it is the fundamental move to shake yourself, and you can't give up your family because of your military heart.

After all, the role of the family is too great. ”

Thinking of this, Yuan Shao knew what to do, and said to Tian Feng kindly: "Yuan Hao, what you said is very right, the top priority now is to withdraw the army back to Jizhou, as for the closure, let's talk about it later." ”

Yuan Shao said this, how could Tian Feng, who was quick-witted, not guess?

Moreover, Tian Feng also heard of Yuan Shao and Ju Yi's gambling contract.

But Tian Feng did not dare to disobey the lord's order, so he could only retreat obediently.

On the way back to his camp, Tian Feng was full of emotions.

Because of a gambling contract, and ignoring the army, is it necessary for such a lord to follow?

If you take refuge in others, who can succeed in this world?
