Sun Tzu said: There will be five dangers: you will die, but you can also kill; will be born, but can be captured; Angry, insulting; Incorruptible, humiliating; Love the people, but it's annoying. As a general, if you love the people too much, you will fall into passivity.

Cao Cao had already discovered that whether Chen Cheng used troops to fight a war or govern a locality, he cherished the people's power very much, and even did not hesitate to revise his strategic goals in order to protect the vitality of the whole people. He believes that this is Chen Cheng's biggest flaw. As long as you target this, you will be able to defeat the opponent.

Relying on Xiangyi, the army spread out rapidly, building walls in nearby villages, rivers, ponds, reservoirs and other important places, and stationing troops and horses in varying numbers, and then centering with an elite army, ready to attack at any time.

After Chen Chengjun, who was in Yongqiu, found a large number of Cao troops appearing on the opposite side, he also set up camp. This is a fine tradition since the days of the Xiliang Army, and there are special courses in the military academy to guide officers on how to choose where to be stationed, how to dig trenches, and how to use the most common equipment and things to make the camp stronger.

As for Cao Cao, although he appeared very confident in front of his subordinates, he was very cautious in his actions and would never give the enemy any chance. While both sides were digging into the earth, the cavalry of both sides were crisscrossing the wilderness, chasing each other, fighting to the death to seize control of the information.

Chen Cheng personally went into battle, and Ma Chao, Pang De, Zhang Liao, Bao Chu and other cavalry generals were present, and soon expelled the Cao cavalry. But Cao Cao is not an ordinary person, when he heard that the Xiliang cavalry was mobilized, what he thought of was not to withdraw the cavalry, but to realize the opportunity.

"Cao Chun, Xiahoudun, Yu Ban, Han Hao, immediately bring the soldiers and horses of the headquarters and go out with me!"

The gates of several camps were opened, and 30,000 cavalry rushed out, of which 20,000 soldiers and horses went to cut off the roads, and the remaining 10,000 attacked the unscrupulous Xiliang cavalry. But it was clear that Cao Cao didn't know enough about Chen Cheng. As soon as so many soldiers and horses were dispatched, Chen Cheng immediately ordered the guards to blow the horn.

Through the length of the voice, different messages can be transmitted, which is the knowledge that every junior officer needs. After hearing the sound of the horn, please who was wandering around Cao Jun immediately turned his horse's head and left without hesitation. Subsequently, Chen Chengjun also pulled out of the camp.

I saw that a big war was about to break out, but suddenly the wind rose. The sun was obscured by dark clouds, and the temperature suddenly became cooler. Cao Cao raised his head, looked at the thick clouds that had been pressed down, pondered for a while, and then decisively ordered: "The army continues to advance, let Xiahoudun return to the camp, and bring out the left army, the middle army, and the rear army!" ”

The sky changed suddenly, and Chen Cheng couldn't help muttering in his heart. After he came back with the cavalry just now, he immediately led the army out again, preparing for a decisive battle with the Cao army, but God came out like this. The infantry battalion of the Tooth Soldiers has changed a lot, and it is no longer as important as before, but to give full play to the advantages of artillery.

Now it seems to be raining in the sky, and it doesn't seem to be raining, is it going to rain or not?

Chen Cheng thought about it carefully, he had done a test of firing a cannon in a rainy day when he was in Guanzhong before, although it was not completely impossible to fire, but it would still have some impact. If it really rains heavily, your combat effectiveness will probably be weakened by one or two percent?

When he was hesitating, he found that Cao Jun not only did not retreat to defend, but instead increased more troops.

"Okay, Cao Mengde, you are so brave, then I have to accompany you!"

Chen Cheng ordered loudly: "Order the cavalry to go forward and disrupt the enemy's battle formation!" ”

"Tell the infantry, speed up, within half an hour, you must rush to Xiaowang Village!"

"Order Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, take the soldiers and horses of the headquarters to the left flank!"

"Order Wei Ran to follow Zhang Liao and Xu Huang with the Flying Bear Hussar, and if there is a chance, launch a surprise attack on the enemy army!"

The wind became stronger, blowing the battle flag and hunting thunder. Chen Cheng immediately stood on a mound and looked at the army like a long dragon, rolling forward. He cast his gaze to the distance to the south, and beyond his vision, several long red dragons were rushing towards him. Presumably, Cao Cao was also doing something similar to himself at this time.

If there is Xiaowang Village, then there must be Dawang Village. It's like when students know that there is a definition of "rational numbers", then there will inevitably be "irrational numbers" waiting for them in the future, unless they drop out of school, then they won't run into them. Between Xiaowang Village and Dawang Village, the cavalry of both sides began a chaotic battle.

During the short period of time under the imperial court, Yanzhou received a lot of technical support, and built a lot of wind and water mills in various places. This thing only needs upfront investment and a small amount of follow-up maintenance, and after it is built, it can continuously produce economic benefits, so the scholars and heroes of Yanzhou have built one or more in their own estates.

By the time the cavalry was fighting with Cao's army, the main force of infantry had already arrived at the predetermined battlefield. The infantry battalion was spread out in the village, outside the spring suit, in the field, beside the woods, and the artillery battalion was placed on the edge of the wind-powered mill. There was a high ground on which the mill stood.

Under the blowing of the strong wind, the huge blades are constantly turning, driving the machinery in the mill to make a continuous sound.

Outside the mill, the officers' voices were louder than the wind and machinery. Both infantry officers and artillery officers are shouting loudly, so that the soldiers under their command are ready for battle faster. The infantry is okay to say, the tiger squat cannon can run around with two people carrying it. Add to that the fact that one person carries gunpowder and one person carries cannonballs, and four or five people can serve an infantry cannon.

The "Napoleonic cannon", on the other hand, not only needed to be towed by horses, but also had a demand for artillery positions. It took a long time for the twelve cannons to be ready for fire, and the muzzles of the black hole pointed in the direction of the south. Seeing that the artillerymen were ready for battle, Chen Cheng immediately became relaxed.

Fighting a war is a complete system, but in the army, in your own army, the main thing is the combined combat of cavalry, infantry, and artillery. The light artillery of the Tiger Squat Cannon is considered an infantry weapon, and it cannot really be counted in the artillery. Therefore, it is now possible that the world's first infantry artillery will work together.

Ahem, Chen Cheng looked left and right, and felt that the word "infantry and artillery coordination" was a little too much? The direct-aim artillery has a ghost infantry artillery coordination, and this is not the time of the First World War. Even in World War II, there were only a handful of countries that were able to play the "coordinated tactics of infantry artillery".

The world only knows that Sun Jian fought bravely, but few people know that Cao Cao is as strong as he fights. Whether it is a strong enemy army or a thick city wall, Cao Mengde is going to try it with his head. The soldiers and horses under his command are strictly disciplined and strong, so maybe they will directly knock through the opposite side?

There were many enemies who were directly penetrated by Cao Jun, but there were also a lot of kicks on the iron plate. Cao Cao is a man of action, and he does more than he thinks. Every time there is a little opportunity, it will be seized. Unlike Chen Cheng, everything must be considered before doing it.

In another time and space, Zhuge Kongming wrote in "The Later Teacher's Table" that "Cao Cao's five attacks on Chang and Chang could not be overpowered, and the four crosses Chaohu Lake could not be achieved", which is a good illustration of Cao Cao's character. Cao Mengde studied Chen Cheng very thoroughly, and knew that this great general was not good at "winning by surprise", but fighting according to the plan step by step. Even when there is a surprise victory, it is a long time ago to make all kinds of preparations and foreshadowing.

This opportunity was not too good, but Cao Cao still led his troops to launch a surprise attack, and after the failure of the assault plan, he immediately increased the chips in his hand, ready to rely on the advantage of the large number of people to directly knock the opposite side down. Chen Cheng cherishes the people and soldiers, but Cao Mengde never cares about human life.

In his opinion, even if the people of Yanzhou are dead, as long as they can defeat Chen Cheng, it will be worth it. If he could have known Prime Minister Winston Churchill, he would have spoken a common language with him.

The Cao infantry of the brigade came in a surge, dozens of battle flags were erected in the wilderness, and the soldiers' battle formations covered all the places in front of Xiaowangzhuang. The dull sound of trumpets rang out for miles, and the soldiers, bound by military law, howled loudly and pounced viciously, like a flood, to drown the enemy on the opposite side.

Just launched the first attack, thousands of soldiers and horses have already been taken out, and Cao Cao's courage can be seen. He had already requisitioned the young men of Yuzhou and half of Yanzhou into the army, and it was up to him whether he lived or died. Chen Cheng has never liked to fight a protracted war, and the best way to deal with it should have been a deep ditch and a high base, and wait until Chen Chengjun's spirit was frustrated before launching a counterattack.

Later, Cao Cao also learned from the mouth of the spy that the imperial court had developed a new weapon, and the destructive power of the city wall was even higher than the "thunderbolt" that rarely appeared in the field of vision. Cao Cao was skeptical of the so-called "new weapons", but Chen Cheng had already come up with so many new things, and it was normal for him to have one or two more.

With the attitude of preferring to believe what he has rather than what he doesn't, Cao Cao decided that it would be better to expand the strength of the handle to the maximum and solve the problem at one time! The news that came not long ago also proved that Cao Cao's own considerations were correct. According to the people who escaped from Zhongmu, the Chen thief used demon magic and easily smashed Zhongmu's city gate.

Cao Cao would rather believe that it was Chen Cheng who had come up with a new weapon, rather than that Chen Cheng had used a spell. If the former were to fight to kill and injure some more people, there would still be a chance to win. If it's the latter, if Chen Wenzheng really can call for wind and rain, and it is really a god who came into the world, then what else is there to fight? Lie on the ground and shout long live and it's over.

"Distance, a thousand steps!"

"Distance, a thousand steps!"

"Double gunpowder, solid bullets!"

"Double gunpowder, solid bullets!"

On the edge of the wind mill, the gunners gave orders hoarsely. The artillerymen were shirtless and worked hard to stuff more than a dozen pounds of shells into the chambers.
