"Behemoths?" Cao Cao smiled and shook his head.

"If it had been before, I would have been afraid of three points. Now I'm not afraid of his giant beasts, I can handle as many as I come! Cao Cao looked confident.

"Huh?"

Cao Ren was shocked.

In his opinion, Yuan Xi's giant beast was invincible, and it was difficult to hurt it even with a strong crossbow and a stone. Cao Cao actually threatened not to be afraid of giant beasts, is there really a way to face giant beasts?

"Please make it clear." Cao Ren asked curiously.

"It's inconvenient for me to say now, when you get to the front of the two armies, you know." Cao Cao retracted back into the car, urged the army, and moved forward quickly.

.................

Just as Cao Cao rushed to Chang'an, he was preparing to engage Yuan Xi, Ma Teng, and Han Sui. Liu Bei, who was in Jingzhou, worshiped Xu Shu as a military advisor and captured Changsha County. Originally, he was going to capture Jiangxia, but after Liu Biao was defeated, he also retreated to Jiangxia, how could Liu Bei dare to fight with Liu Biao?

He personally led the army to Changsha.

Changsha was too guarded by Han Xuan, stupid and incompetent, perverse, and was beheaded by Wei Yan.

Lao Huang was loyal to the outside of Changsha City, and fought with Guan Yu for 300 rounds, regardless of victory or defeat. In the end, it was Guan Yu who made a plan, and he was slightly better.

has to meet such a powerful general, how could Liu Bei miss it?

He visited Huang Zhong in person, cried and wiped his tears, and took Huang Zhong under his command.

and Wei Yan, who also submitted to Liu Bei.

Since then, Liu Bei has occupied Changsha County in the south of Jingzhou, and commanded generals such as Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, and Wei Yan, as well as strategist Xu Shu, elite Danyang soldiers, and Bai Wei soldiers. Although there have been several crushing defeats and the number of troops has been sharply reduced, the essence is still there.

At Xu Shu's suggestion, Liu Bei wrote a letter to Liu Biao, indicating that he took Changsha to help Liu Biao and defend against Cao Cao. Because after Cao Cao obtained Xiangyang, he must lead a large army to the east, and successively occupied the four southern counties and Jiangxia County. At present, most of the soldiers in the four southern counties are Liu Biao's old troops, and their combat effectiveness is extremely weak. After Liu Bei captured Changsha, he could form a mutual aid with Jiangxia County.

Liu Biao was afraid of Cao Cao's attack, and he no longer blamed Liu Bei.

He agreed to send Changsha County to Liu Bei, and told him to quickly reorganize his army and prepare to meet Cao's army in the Eastern Crusade.

So.

Liu Bei took Changsha County, and although his army was subordinate to Liu Biao's Jingzhou Army, it was not under Liu Biao's dispatch, forming a state within a country. Occupying it under the pretense of defending against Cao Cao actually gave him a strong chance.

...............

There was such a big change in Jingzhou, and Sun Quan of Eastern Wu also took action.

He ordered Zhou Yu to lead 30,000 naval troops and 50,000 foot cavalry to capture Jiangxia and Nanjun. Zhou Yu agreed on the surface, but secretly marched according to his own strategy, and after crossing the Yangtze River, he marched north to take Cao Cao's Yangzhou!

First captured Hefei, and then waited for the opportunity to occupy Huainan.

Cao Cao's spies were all over Eastern Wu, knowing that Zhou Yu was going to fight Jiangxia and Nanjun, but Yangzhou was defenseless, and was caught off guard by Zhou Yu, and lost seventeen or eighteen cities in a row. Most of Yangzhou fell into the hands of Zhou Yu.

Changan.

The battle with Cao Cao is about to begin.

Yuan Xi did not dare to underestimate Cao's army, and suggested that Ma Teng and Han Sui leave 100,000 heavy troops to garrison Chang'an, and Yan Liang's 50,000 troops should not be moved lightly, and camped outside Dongcheng to help each other with Chang'an.

When Cao Cao sent the war letter.

Yuan Xi, Ma Teng, and Han Sui led 100,000 iron horsemen to meet the battle.

"The general is too careful, Cao Cao only has 100,000 infantry troops, and the cavalry is less than 10,000, how can he defeat my Xiliang army? I don't think there is any suspense in this battle, the battle can be won, and the general can just wait for good news. When he was about to arrive at the place of the Vietnam War, Han Sui said with a smile.

"It's not that I'm cowardly, it's Cao Cao who is extremely deceitful. You should have heard of the battle of Guandu at the beginning, right? My father led an army of 700,000 and fought against him with more than 200,000 troops. Yuan Xi said.

But in the end he was defeated by the general. After the battle of bath water, he was greatly injured. It can be seen that Cao Cao is not invincible. ”

"What the general said is very true." Yuan Xi said: "I also hope that this battle can defeat Cao's army.... ”

Han Sui's self-confidence made Yuan Xi feel a little bad.

At this moment, I am afraid that the soldiers of the Xiliang Army also think the same way. 100,000 iron cavalry, facing 100,000 Cao army foot soldiers, is already a victory. But the battlefield is clash and the enemy is ever-changing, who can say for sure?

Since Cao Cao dared to lead 100,000 infantry troops to meet the battle, he had a certain certainty.

"Wait..."

Yuan Xi suddenly thought of something and grabbed the horse's reins violently.

"Why did the general stop?" Ma Chao asked.

"I just remembered something. Cao Cao once invented a weapon, and the power of this weapon is very powerful. When the time comes to battle, you must be careful! Yuan Xi said with a solemn face.

"Weapons? What kind of weapon? Wouldn't it be a crossbow or a catapult again? Although these two instruments have strong penetrating power, he didn't have time to release them under the rapid rush of my iron horse. The general can rest assured. Han Sui said.

"It's not a crossbow, it's not a catapult. But.... Yuan Xi was reluctant to reveal the fact that the Qiong Jelly Jade Liquor could produce an explosion, in case the Xiliang Army was too strong and he would become a disaster one day, so he said: "In short, you just be careful." Try not to huddle forward, or you could easily be targeted by that weapon. ”

Yuan Xi nodded.

Han Sui and Ma Teng didn't take it to heart.

The army moved on.

Soon arrived at the battlefield.

Cao Cao's 100,000-strong army had already set up a position in front.

"General Ma Teng, General Han Sui, there is Cao Cao's army formation in front, look at how majestic." Yuan Xi raised his head and said.

"Hmph..."

Han Sui said with a smile: "Cao Cao dared to pull the army out into the wilderness and make enemies with my Xiliang army, it was purely looking for death." Don't worry, general, wait for me to order to rush over and kill him, and kill him on his back! ”

"Hmm." Ma Teng also said: "I firmly believe that Cao Cao will not win the field battle!" ”

"Don't worry, two generals, wait for me to investigate, and it's not too late to march again." Yuan Xi said and patted the four dissimilar heads. The four did not rise to the sky and flew forward.

Stick to Cao Cao's military formation and go around in a circle.

Then he returned to Ma Teng and Han Sui and said, "Two generals, Cao Cao's army has many hook and sickle guns. This thing specializes in restraining cavalry. To the right and left of his formation, there were a large number of Thunderbolt chariots. Combat effectiveness should not be underestimated. ”

"Cao Cao is really treacherous. I want to use a hook and sickle to break the horse's legs! Han Sui was angry in his heart. He was trying to behave in front of Yuan Xi so that he could get the so-called reward, but he never thought that Cao Cao would not give him this opportunity.

"It would be nice if there were 5,000 chariots, first break through the enemy's position, and then we attack, we will definitely win!" Ma Chao said.

"What General Meng Qi said is extremely..." Yuan Xi smiled at Ma Chao and said, "Although I didn't bring a chariot, I brought a giant beast. You should have seen that python the day before yesterday, right? He is invulnerable and specializes in breaking formations! When he was bathing in the water, he fought against Cao Cao's Qingzhou Army and Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, and he did not fall behind at all. Later, I will let him rush over and destroy Cao Cao's military formation, and your iron cavalry will start to charge again. ”
