In Yanzhou, there is a military camp about twenty miles outside the city of Chenliu in Chenliu County, and this military camp is extremely mysterious in the hearts of the local people, because they know nothing but that this military camp is a cavalry battalion. Even the people in this military camp are not allowed to approach at all within a radius of more than ten miles, and any people who try to get close will soon encounter a fierce cavalryman, and if the explanation is not correct, they will be sent directly to the prison.

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;In the camp, Cao Cao stood with his hands in his hands, and behind him, Cao Chun and Cao Xiu had solemn faces. Their eyes were straight ahead, where two cavalry squads of about two hundred men were lined up in a neat formation, wearing black armor and horses wearing black vests as well. They held spears wrapped around their heads and looked at each other with blank expressions.

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"Charge! A somewhat immature voice sounded. At the front of one of the cavalry squads, a young man in armor with a spear directly led people to charge. And the cavalry squad on the opposite side also followed closely to meet them. In a few moments, the two squads staggered by, and immediately someone stepped forward to check the white spots on the soldiers.

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"Hehe, Zidan is doing a good job, although he is still young, he is getting more and more like a general. Zihe and Wenlie, you have taught well. Looking at Cao Zhen, who was looking pensive, Cao Cao couldn't help but smile.

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"His Royal Highness praised falsely, Zidan has today's achievements, thanks to his own diligence and studiousness. Not only do they practice martial arts every day and follow us to learn the way of arranging troops, but after returning to the camp to rest, they still have to hold the military books and scriptures to read and read," Cao Chun chuckled when he heard this.

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"Hmm! That's it! You are my relatives of Cao Mengde, and you are also the people I trust the most! Therefore, you must not only have outstanding martial arts, but also be able to lead troops to fight and govern the place! Cao Cao nodded when he heard this, and said in a deep voice, then raised his head, looked at the blue sky, and muttered to himself, "Although I can't set up a Great Dao Academy like Zikang, my Cao family will not lose to his scholars who came out of the academy!" ”

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"Your Highness, rest assured! The last general will definitely live up to His Highness's expectations! Cao Chun and Cao Xiu replied loudly.

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;Cao Cao nodded, and then said in a deep voice, "In addition, in the recent past, training has increased!" Be careful, though, not to hurt the soldiers. The big war is imminent, and this kind of warrior who is one hundred is not easy to find, and it is difficult to adapt quickly if he finds it. ”

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"Your Highness, rest assured! ”

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"Hehe, when the time comes, let Zikang take a look at which of my Cao Mengde's tiger and leopard cavalry, and the elite troops such as the flying cavalry battalion and the Wushuang battalion under his command, is stronger or weaker!" Cao Cao chuckled, his eyes fell on the soldiers in the distance again, his eyes full of anticipation.

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;Changshan Country, outside the Yuan City.

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"With the help of the second son, the last general finally doesn't have to worry" Zhang Yan looked at Yuan Xi and laughed, "You must know that in the past few days, the last general has not been able to sleep well."

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"The general laughed, Xi came here just to fight for the general, but the one who is really responsible for resisting the Zhao army still has to rely on the general" Yuan Xi replied with a chuckle.

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;The two exchanged a few polite sentences, and Yuan Xi couldn't wait to say, "General, without further ado, let's go and inspect the terrain, right?" ”

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"This general has already prepared a banquet for the second son," Zhang Yan said with some embarrassment when she heard this.

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"It's better to be prepared a day earlier, and a day to be relieved." Although King Zhao may not take the initiative to attack, he also has to guard against it! A trace of dissatisfaction flashed in Yuan Xi's eyes when he heard this, but he still persuaded respectfully.

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"In that case, let's follow the words of the second son!" Zhang Yan didn't notice Yuan Xi's dissatisfaction, but he admired Yuan Xi a lot, but he still agreed. Immediately, he took more than a dozen personal soldiers and went to the Black Mountain Range with Yuan Xi.

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;For more than ten days, Yuan Xi walked around the Black Mountain Range for more than ten days, not only walking the terrain around Shangai, but also drawing the surrounding terrain on a piece of paper.

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"The second prince is planning to defend against the enemy in this Black Mountain Range? Zhang Yan looked at Yuan Xi, who was constantly writing and drawing on the paper, and asked with some doubts.

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"Nice. If the Zhao army wants to invade Jizhou, there are no more than two ways, one of its troops will go out of Wei County, and the other will go out of the state. However, in Xi's opinion, the Zhao soldiers in Wei County are only tens of thousands, and they are close to Yanzhou and Sili, so there is no need to worry too much. The only possible thing is the merger of states. And if the troops were sent from Jizhou, not counting Wei County, there would be only one road left, and if Xi was not mistaken, the general should have walked it. Yuan Xi nodded and said in a deep voice.

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"Yes, the late generals in the past once led an army into Taiyuan" Zhang Yan replied a little vaguely, obviously not wanting to mention the previous events.

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;But Yuan Xi seemed very interested in this, "Can the general tell me how he felt when he fought against Zhao's army?" ”

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"This" Zhang Yan heard this, and suddenly felt a pain in the egg, he only made a feint on the first day of the expedition, and then maintained a confrontation situation, where can he experience the strength of the Zhao army?

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;But after thinking about it, he still said in a deep voice, "When the Zhao army fights, the action is very uniform, and almost everyone can bend the bow and shoot arrows."

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"Well, it's no different from what I've heard" Yuan Xi responded with some disappointment, and then asked, "If the general leads the army to fight the Zhao army in the field, how much chance does the general think he has to win?" Well, in the case of the same number of troops. ”

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"This" Zhang Yan hesitated when she heard this, but after seeing Yuan Xi's deep gaze, she still replied honestly, "There is no doubt that you will lose!" Although there were cavalry under the last general, they were far inferior to the cavalry under the command of King Zhao. In addition, the soldiers under the command of the last general are uneven, and the armament is not as good as the Zhao army."

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;Although it is not easy to expose one's shortcomings, Zhang Yan still said it honestly. After all, if Lu Bu really led his army to attack Changshan Kingdom, the only people he could rely on were Yuan Xi and Yuan Shao behind him.

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"Hmm" Yuan Xi nodded when he heard this, and then kept looking at the map in front of him and pondered.

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;In fact, what Zhang Yan said is not much different from what Yuan Xi thought, after all, Yuan Shao and Zhang Yan have not fought each other, but Yuan Xi also understands some fiction and reality. The reason why he asked this was that Yuan Xi just wanted to know Zhang Yan's attitude, and now, he was still very satisfied with Zhang Yan's humble attitude.

&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;&nb;"In this way, Xi has an idea" Yuan Xi said to Zhang Yan after pondering for a while, pointing to a place on the map.
