The battle in Longshan continues.

The battle between Cao Cao and Bai Qi is also about to begin.

Luoyang.

The camp in the south of the city.

Lu Bu had already received the news that the 2nd Group Army of Bai Qi was in distress on the line from Longshan to Xiaopingjin, and was surrounded by Cao Cao's more than 200,000 generals and blocked in Longshan.

"Ladies and gentlemen..."

Lu Bu looked at the civil and military at all levels in the tent and said, "You already know about the affairs of the Bai Qi Army, do you think I should send the army to help?" ”

"I thought.... There is no need to send troops. Jia Xu said.

"Why?"

"Although General Bai Qi is young, he has rich combat experience and has 200,000 troops in his hands, and he will not be easily wiped out by Cao Cao. On the contrary, he can hold Cao Cao back and buy us time. Taking advantage of this opportunity, we should quickly occupy Luoyang and crush Cao Cao's plan to hold Luoyang. Jia Xu said.

"The minister is not in favor of sending troops." Xu Shu said.

"The two military advisors, Bai Qi is not a god. The situation of the army changes, and victory and defeat are common. In case Bai Qi was defeated and the 2nd Army was eaten by Cao Cao, the consequences would be very serious. Lu Bu's heart was a little worried.

The more critical the moment, the more likely it is that something will go wrong.

"What does the lord mean?" Jia Xu asked.

"The battle of Luoyang was mainly a fortified battle, and there was no need for cavalry. I intend to send all the cavalry, including the chariot units, to the aid of Bai Qi. The first is to relieve the siege of Baiqi. The second was to rendezvous with the 2nd Army and wait for an opportunity to encircle and suppress Cao Cao, who was trying to go north. If it can be successful, then the battle of Luoyang and the battle of Hebei will end one after another, isn't it a good thing? Lu Budao.

"The cavalry of our several army groups combined, there should be about forty thousand. Plus 10,000 tanks. Fifty thousand. Xu Shu said.

"Well, all of them!"

Lu Bu made the final decision and said categorically: "Let's take this battle as a big gamble. If you're lucky, if you catch Cao Cao, we'll earn it. If you're unlucky, you won't lose anything. Anyway, we earned it. ”

"What do you think?"

When they heard that Cao Cao was going to be arrested, the generals who were eager to make meritorious contributions were full of joy. Xiang Yu, who was particularly belligerent, said with a smile: "The lord has a good idea." The last general is willing to lead the army to go and capture Cao Cao! ”

"You're going?"

Lu Bu shook his head.

"What? Can't I? Xiang Yu had a look of surprise on his face.

"It's not impossible. It's just that.... Can you guarantee to cooperate with Bai Qi in the fight and not act privately? Our 50,000 cavalry and chariots are the only mobile troops... ”

Lu Bu knew Xiang Yu very well. Xiang Yu led the troops to fight Cao Cao, and he must have rushed to kill without hesitation. If you don't catch Cao Cao, you will not give up. Can you think about what kind of person Sima Yi is? If an ambush is set up, the consequences will be unimaginable.

"Yes, I can guarantee it!" Xiang Yu patted his chest and said.

"My lord, it's best to go by General Xiang." Jia Xu spoke for Xiang Yu.

"Hey, look... Even Mr. Wen He said it. Xiang Yu said: "Lord, just let me go." I wanted to catch Cao Cao in my dreams. You've got to give me this chance. ”

"Well... I'm giving you this chance. Wenhe, you go with Xiang Yu. Lu Bu looked at Jia Xu.

"Uh... Yes, sir. ”

Jia Xu didn't expect to put himself in.

"You're going.... It's best to be able to destroy Cao Cao. If not, when rescuing Bai Qi is the top, his 200,000 troops are the essence of the 2nd Army, and there must be no accidents. Lu Bu admonished.

"No."

Jia Xu and Xiang Yu responded.

"The artillery of the Science and Technology Institute will be transported to Luoyang in about ten days. At that time, Han Xin's 1st Army, as the main force to attack Luoyang, will assist all the troops to occupy Luoyang in one fell swoop! ”

"No..."

After Lu Bu finished assigning the task, the generals in the tent left one after another.

"Wenhe."

Lu Bu stopped Jia Xu and said, "I sent you to assist Xiang Yu, do you know why?" ”

"The lord is afraid that General Xiang will act recklessly and fall for Sima Yi's tricks." Jia Xu replied.

When you talk to smart people, you just don't have to talk too much.

Lu Bu smiled: "Exactly." Although Xiang Yu is brave and strategic, he is very good at leading troops. But he was eager to make meritorious contributions, and he did not take any enemy in his eyes. This is destined that no matter how strong the enemy he encounters, he will stand up for battle. This will cost most of my 50,000 cavalry and chariots. You must know that in the whole world, the number of cavalry is less than 150,000. Our tens of thousands of cavalry can account for a small half. He may well have become the main force in the elimination of Cao Cao. ”

"Wake up."

Jia Xu nodded.

Next.

Jia Xu and Xiang Yu led 40,000 cavalry and 10,000 chariots to the official road from Longshan to Xiaopingjin.

Longshan is still in a fierce confrontation.

Qin Qiong organized troops to break through the encirclement, but was met with fierce resistance and counterattack by Xu Huang.

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

Bai Qi's 10,000 light horsemen retreated more than 100 miles to the north and set up camp. In the tent, Bai Qi convened all the generals under his command to discuss the meeting and said, "Cao Cao's 170,000 troops are rushing here. With the speed of his infantry army, he will probably be able to arrive at noon tomorrow. We can't retreat anymore, we have to stand up in battle and defeat Cao Cao! ”

"General Bai, I admire your courage very much, but.... With 10,000 light cavalry, against 170,000 Cao troops, this.... Will it work? Pei Yuanqing asked.

The rest of the generals also shook their heads, feeling bottomless.

"Why not?" Bai Qi said: "I already have a detailed plan. As long as you do what I say, you will definitely be able to destroy Cao Cao!" Moreover, he was able to destroy his 170,000 troops! ”

"First of all, it's a tired strategy. What does it mean to be tired? It is to rely on our war horses to attract the enemy to pursue. In just one or two days, we can travel hundreds of miles. It will take them days to catch up. After a long chase, his soldiers will get tired and their morale will drop. ”

"And then there was the blitzkrieg. We can send small troops of cavalry to attack the enemy from the flanks while he is on the march. Caught him off guard. Leave after the fight, never entangle. ”

"Finally, there is the raid battle. Look for an opportunity to carry out a large-scale charge in an area suitable for cavalry combat. As in the Blitzkrieg, destroy a part of him and withdraw immediately. ”

"For half a month in a row, I don't believe that Cao Cao can still persevere. How many of his 170,000 troops will be left? Moreover, his food was in the great camp to the north, which was besieged by our cavalry.... ”

Bai Qi told the generals about his plan.

Pei Yuanqing said excitedly: "General Bai's plan is good." This is where the strengths of our cavalry really come into play. I would like to personally lead an iron cavalry in charge of blitzkrieg. Keep and kill him without leaving a piece of armor. ”

"Well... Blitzkrieg has to be a general. Bai Qi also agreed.

Pressed for time.

Bai Qi gave a detailed explanation of his three combat methods and decided on the time to fight.

Next.

Just after noon.

Cao Cao's 170,000 troops rushed to the flank of the Baiqi military camp.

Cao Jun, who had just arrived here, was very tired and urgently needed to rest.

Cao Hong sent someone to investigate, and came back to report: "King Wei, the camp in front of Baiqi is empty. ”
