Chapter 537: The Battle of Guandu (2)

Guandu Qi army main tent, Ji Ling and Zhang Xun, who were left and right, sat opposite each other, and Ji Ling personally made tea for Zhang Xun.

The teapot is exquisite, the surface is crystal clear, and there is a square "Made in Jingzhou" red stamp at the bottom.

The clear tea flows from the neck of the teapot into the teacup, and a few pieces of tea leaf whirl in the teacup, just like the mood of two people drinking tea.

There are no outsiders around, let alone Jinyi Guard, Cao Cao built ships on the other side of the river, with 10,000 against 90,000, presumably there is no intention of taking the initiative to attack.

Ji Ling and Zhang Xun can speak freely.

"Chu Jun's actions in the past year are really incomprehensible!"

Ji Ling expressed his worries.

Zhang Xun guessed:

"Could it be that he really has a deep brotherly relationship with the lord? So not only was we robbed Yuzhou and not angry, but they also helped us like this?

The unstable rebels helped us clear up, and the ordnance, military rations, and military salaries also helped us solve it at the same time, and now we are at war with the Zhao army, seeing that we lack probe horses, and the intelligence is not enough, he came forward to help us.

I really can't think of any explanation other than brotherhood! ”

Ji Ling felt extremely disappointed with the brotherhood theory in Zhang Xun's mouth, the commander of the 100,000 army, his vision was just like this, and he was so naΓ―ve, he was happy to see it in the other party's army, but it was still his own side.

And Zhang Xun has already calculated, under the lord of the Qi army, the marquis of Qi, the three commanders, Zhang Xun can be ranked second, and the other Yuan Yin is inferior to him.

Ji Ling couldn't help but feel a little nostalgic when Sun Jian was still there, in front of the top commander Sun Jian, he was like a junior student, where would he have these feelings, it was too late to learn more about the knowledge of his predecessor Sun Jian.

Ji Ling's face remained calm:

"Presumably it is more than these, I am afraid that the cooperation between our Qi army and the Chu army is far more related to the cooperation between the Chu army and the Zhao army."

Ji Ling could only think of this.

"No matter what, destroy Cao Cao first, cut off the arm of the Zhao army, sweep away the Zhao army, and encroach on the territory of the Zhao army, so with absolute superiority, no matter how many tricks the Chu army has, it can only be captured."

Both of them agree with this concept, in the face of absolute strength, no amount of conspiracy and trickery is useless, and the conspiracy is more to play a certain role in increasing the strength of the two sides when the strength of the two sides is almost the same.

On the north bank of the Yellow River, Cao Cao is building boats and preparing to cross the river, and Ji Ling and Zhang Xun on the south bank are building boats, with the same purpose, to cross the river.

Just when the two tigers were fighting, what they didn't know was that a divine dragon or a yellow dragon was staring at them.

In the lower reaches of the Yellow River, a large number of flat-bottomed inland river boats were gathered, each of which was fully loaded with the Chu army.

Wang Xiu, the first mastermind of the Chu army and has always been the left-behind personnel, is the chief general of the army, the chief of all the military discipline officers of the Chu army, the military leader Xia Houlan personally serves as the military discipline chief of this army, as well as Chen Yang, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and Wu Peng, the governor of the North Sea Fleet, the founder of the naval division.

There are also generals Wang Wei, Bian Xi, Li Gan, the father of Li Dian, etc.

Each of the above is a veteran of Cao Jun.

Except for Zhang Leigong who stayed behind, Wang Xiao was in Guanxi, and almost all the veterans of the Chu army arrived.

There are also Cao Jun's most elite sailors and foot cavalry, no less than 30,000.

Just like a dragon dodging the clouds, staring at two tigers that are tense with sabre.

The Chu army's preparations are not limited to these.

Only the next day, the Zhao army on the north bank of the Yellow River had already launched a tentative attack.

With 10,000 against 90,000, and taking the lead in attacking, Cao Cao is really a master of art and bold.

The fleet, which Zhao Jun had probed, was quickly shot back by the Qi army.

In the big tent of the Zhao army, as the main general of the temptation, Xiahou Dun walked in a tiger step, and the two arrows in his hand smashed on Cao Cao's table with a snap.

"Mengde, look! Qi Jun faced my temptation with arrows like rain, and I also found that every arrow in this one, as long as it is good, has these two signs, and those that do not have these two signs are only a small part, and they are all fake and shoddy! ”

Xiahoudun pointed to the root of the arrow, a red circle like a seal, on which a "Made in Jingzhou" was printed, and the other was in the same position, printed "Made in Canghai".

Xiahoudun jumped like thunder.

"Chu Jun! It's the Chu army again! According to me, it is time to take the Chu Army Castle on the shore of Canghai in Hebei Province first! ”

Cao Cao persuaded with a comforting face:

"Yuan Rang, don't be anxious, this Chu army's castle on the edge of the Canghai Sea is all brick and stone structure, tall and thick, and backed by the Canghai Sea Division, and it is only a small city, or a military city, that is, there is no population and no surrounding land.

The gains of attacking them outweighed the losses, and Sili Luoyang was surrounded by the Chu army on three sides, and the Marquis of Zhao was reluctant to move the capital, Luoyang was the center of the Zhao army, and it was still in a state of no danger to defend

In short, now is not the time to declare war with the Chu army, and we must win the Chu army to our side, annex the Qi army, and carry out the momentum of Chu and Han fighting for power before the founding of our dynasty.

At that time, it is not too late to compete. ”

With less to fight more, and the meaning of the delay in returning the backup, the psychological pressure of the generals under his command is extremely great, as the lord, it is not okay to be comforted, even if the pressure on himself is greater.

Cao Cao was comforting Xiahoudun here, but he felt more and more Alexander in his heart.

The Qi army did not pity the consumption of arrows, and even the obvious temptation used the arrows provided by the Chu army, which revealed a lot of news.

One: The armament of the Qi army is sufficient to the point of surplus, even if it is a temptation, even if it is to dismount, and tens of thousands of arrows are consumed.

This Zhao Jun can't do it, Zhao Jun took over Luoyang, which is equivalent to taking over the empty treasury, and when Yuan Kui wrongly rectified the regime, he paid more money on the basis of Yulu grain, bought people's hearts and promised high-ranking officials, was removed from the patrol, the township head, and the judge were unconvinced, etc., and the huge hole brought by Yuan Kui was taken over by Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao's funds to fill the holes, stabilize people's hearts, and consolidate his position are not enough, so he has to go to the Shijia Haoqiang to prepare, how can there be so much money to build surplus ordnance.

Two: The cooperation between Qi Jun and Chu Jun is extremely pleasant and reassuring.

Weapons can be traded on such a large scale, this is a bad existence that will be used on oneself, at that time it is to lift a stone to shoot oneself in the foot, a naked act of capital and enemy.

This cannot be the case without great trust and cooperation! Even the trust between the allies, between the suzerains and the vassals, cannot be achieved.

Yuan Shao didn't have so much trust in him, a small warlord attached to him, and he could deduct as much as he could, and he was not willing to give even an arrow, not to mention a large number of them, tens of thousands.

Three: How much population the Chu army gained.

Cao Cao knew very well that the ordnance of the Chu army was not for nothing.
