Chapter 311: The First Battle of the White Horse
Baima is close to Dongjun, and the Taishou of Dongjun at this time is Liu Yan.
I don't know why, since he decided to attack Baima, Liu Wei always felt that he had a bad premonition in his heart, and it was very strong.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"
Xi Zhicai saw that Liu Wei was in the big tent, looking a little irritable, so he asked.
"I don't know why, since the two generals, Gan Ning and Hua Xiong, marched into the White Horse, I have had a bad premonition."
Liu Wei glanced at Xi Zhicai and then spoke.
Since he decided to attack Baima, he also deliberately asked Hua Xiong to bring 10,000 horses to help Gan Ning.
Now the two of them have set off with 20,000 horses, but now their uneasy feeling is getting stronger and stronger.
After listening to Liu Wei's words, Xi Zhicai also frowned, "Your Majesty, could it be that you are too tired?" ”
After all, as a strategist, he didn't use intuition to plan, so he looked at Liu Wei and asked.
After listening to Xi Zhicai's words, Liu Wei shook his head, although he couldn't tell why he suddenly felt like this, but he was still sure that it was not because he was tired.
Liu Wei looked at Xi Zhicai, and at the same time looked at the map behind him showing the cities and passes near this Guandu.
His eyes involuntarily fixed on the white horse.
The importance of the geographical location of the White Horse is clear to Liu Wei, if the White Horse is taken and the Yellow River is crossed, there will be a more favorable pass.
And once the white horse is taken, you can bypass it from here and march directly to Chenliu County, and finally reach Xuchang.
Therefore, the geographical location and importance of this white horse are self-evident, if it were not for this, Yuan Shao would not have let Yan Liangwen attack the white horse in history.
When he thought of this, Liu Wei suddenly felt that he had neglected something, and he wanted to grasp it, but he didn't grasp it firmly for a moment.
"The minister knows that His Majesty is worried, but the importance of the white horse cannot be ignored." Xi Zhicai looked at Liu Wei and said at this time.
Yes, it's important, it's important, after listening to Xi Zhicai's words, Liu Wei couldn't help but pat his forehead.
I know how I can't grasp the point.
"Zhicai, we are all wrong, since our army knows the importance of the white horse, will Cao Jun not know?" Liu Wei looked at Xi Zhicai and said eagerly.
After Xi Zhicai heard Liu Wei's words, he was stunned.
Liu Bian's words have all been said here, and Xi Zhicai still doesn't know what Liu Biao means.
"Rest." Xi Zhicai also shouted with his hands, a rare gaffe.
"Your Majesty, what you said is very true, this is my mistake, Your Majesty should send troops as soon as possible to reinforce them, and at the same time let the two generals Gan Ning not rush to attack."
Xi Zhicai looked at Liu Wei and hurriedly spoke, also very anxious.
I am also very self-conscious, constantly blaming myself, why I even ignore this.
"Let me go to this matter myself." Liu Wei thought about it and nodded in response.
He can naturally see Xi Zhicai's guilt, but he also knows that he can't blame Xi Zhicai for this.
After all, people will be negligent, but I found out about it so late, and I have to say that this is a mistake of my own.
Soon Liu Wei took Dian Wei and led 10,000 horses in the direction of Baima, and the camp was handed over to Xi Zhicai and Zhao Yun.
This time, Liu Wei didn't delay much, and led the men and horses to gallop towards the white horse.
"Your Majesty, if we march like this, I'm afraid we may not be able to catch up with the two generals."
During the march, Zhang Jinhe looked at Liu Wei and said.
"I don't know, but now it's all I can do." Liu Wei said after listening to Zhang Jinhe's words.
Gan Ning and Hua Xiong have been leading the troops for seven days, how can the gap in the road be so easy to chase.
But for himself, for the time being, he can only rush to the vicinity of Hakuba as soon as possible.
"Where has the Han army gone?" In the white horse tent, at this time, Sima Yi looked at the spy in front of him and asked.
"In less than two days, Gan Ning and Na Huaxiong will be able to go to Baima." Someone immediately replied.
"Okay, I finally have a chance to take revenge, this Gan Ning and Hua Xiong are both generals under Liu Wei, if they can be killed, the strength of the Han army will inevitably be greatly reduced."
After listening to it, Xiahou Yuan immediately said happily.
Ever since Xingyang was deflated, he had been waiting for a chance to take revenge, and this time he finally had a chance.
Thinking that he would be able to take revenge soon, when Xiahou Yuan looked at Sima Yi at this time, he felt that this teenage boy was much more pleasing to the eye.
"Yes, let's wait for work, and we will be able to win with one blow when the time comes." Yu Ban also said at this time.
Obviously, the battle in Xingyang impressed them deeply, and it is estimated that they will never forget it for the rest of their lives, after all, people who fought like this have never met them when they open the history books.
Sima Yi didn't refute either, it can be seen that in this matter, several of them still have the same hatred.
This time, he personally sat on the white horse, in order to wash away his shame with this victory.
Of course, Gan Ning and Hua Xiong didn't know that Cao Jun was already in a tight battle.
The two led the men and horses and continued in the direction of the white horse.
"This attack on the white horse, Xingba, don't rob me, let me take the lead." During the march, Hua Xiong looked at Gan Ning and said with a smile.
"You have this Liyang skill, so you don't have to rob me, right?"
As if he was afraid that Gan Ning would not agree, Hua Xiong added with a smile and said.
"Don't worry, I won't rob you." Gan Ning laughed and said.
"But if you can't take it, then don't blame me?" As soon as the conversation changed, Gan Ning smiled again and said.
After hearing Gan Ning's words, Hua Xiong also smiled, and the two led the army to continue to move forward.
Two days was not a very long time, so it passed quickly, and Gan Ning Huaxiong and the two led the men and horses to Baima.
As soon as the two of them led the men and horses to Baima, Sima Yi had already received the news, and led the men and horses directly out of the camp and then set up a formation.
Gan Ning and Yu Huaxiong saw that Cao Jun was moving so fast, and their faces couldn't help but become a little solemn.
The look of relief that came before was completely gone.
"General Huaxiong, it seems that this Cao army is prepared, don't be careless."
Gan Ning looked at Hua Xiong on the side with a solemn face and said.
After Hua Xiong heard Gan Ning's words, he naturally nodded, where could he not see the current situation.
"You're finally here, but I'll have to wait for a while." Xiahou Yuan looked at Hua Xiong and Gan Ning and said with a smile.
"Are you waiting to die?" Hua Xiong glanced at Xiahou Yuan and said with a cold face.
If you lose at this time, it will have a negative impact on morale.
"Arrogance." Xiahou Yuan immediately scolded with an ugly face.
The last thing he wanted to hear now was the sound of death, because there was no reason to have this disgusting feeling.
"General Xiahou doesn't need to be angry, let the last general come out and teach this person a lesson for you."
Just as Xiahou Yuan was about to shoot his horse out, a general beside him opened his mouth to ask for his life.
Xiahou Yuan saw that this person was also a junior in the clan, Xiahou Can, his martial arts were good among the juniors, so it didn't hurt to let him go out and try it, so he nodded immediately.
That Xiahou Can was only in his twenties, holding a crescent halberd, and after getting Xiahou Yuan's permission, he rode out.
"The thief will be rampant, today I, Xiahou Can, will take your life and let you know that it is powerful."
Xiahou Can took the lead, and immediately pointed at Hua Xiong and scolded.
Hua Xiong was naturally angry in his heart, and he said in his heart when he had been bullied by juniors like this.
Immediately, Hua Xiong also slapped his horse out and directly greeted him with a knife.
"Well, I'll kill you today."
"General Xiahou, how can you let Xiahou Can go to the battle, this person is young, I'm afraid he is not the opponent of this Huaxiong."
Yu Ban on the side saw that Xiahou Can and Hua Xiong were about to fight, so he said very worriedly on the side.
This Hua Xiong has some reputation under Liu Wei, and Xiahou Yuan is too underestimated by the enemy.
"It's okay, Xiahou Can is an outstanding junior in my clan, just Huaxiong can't kill him, if he is really invincible, I can save him." Xiahou Yuan said with a smile, very unimpressed.
However, as soon as Xiahou Yuan finished speaking, his original smile stopped abruptly, as if he was choked by something.
