Outside the south gate of Jixian County, the point of building the altar stands here, the platform is full of flags of various colors, and there is a big banner with gold characters on a black background in the middle, and the character Huo is written on it. The spring breeze will blow the flags on the stage in the wind, and the hunting sounds.

Under the stage, the 100,000 troops stood neatly, full of murderous spirit, the halberd was like a forest, the flag was like fog, and there was no abnormal sound except for the sound of the flag blown by the wind.

Huo Yu was dressed in a white helmet, with a sword hanging from his waist, and the big red cloak behind him was waving in the wind, standing majestically on the platform, the heroic spirit that he exuded, combined with the rays of the sun, was like a god who was not angry and arrogant.

Behind Huo Yu, Zhao Yun, Dian Wei, Guan Yu, Gao Shun, Zhang He, Tai Shici, Liao Hua, Ma Chao, and other generals were all wearing battle armor with cold faces.

And those Youzhou soldiers in the audience are full of energy, especially those elites in a hundred battles such as flying feather riders, white horse righteous servants, and trapped camps, they are even more solemn and murderous, as long as Huo Yu gives an order, no matter the sword mountain and the sea of fire, he will definitely move forward bravely.

Huo Yu glanced at the murderous 100,000 army in the audience with satisfaction, although this was not the first time to raise troops to fight, it was definitely the most important one in his life. In the past, the scenes of Wuhuan and Xianbei in the Northern Expedition are vivid, and how many hot-blooded men spilled their blood on the battlefield.

When the soldiers were few and the generals were outnumbered, the Wuhuan people traveled all over Liaodong and Liaoxi, the Xianbei tribe was menacing, and Huo Yu was fearless to lead troops to fight. Now Huo Yu's troops are sufficient, there are many talents, and the unification of the world is the general trend.

Huo Yu drew his sword out, pointed diagonally into the air, and with the magical bronze loudspeaker in front of him, the loud voice suddenly came into the ears of every Youzhou soldier.

"Sons, in the past, you followed Benhou, ambushed the Wuhuan army, destroyed the Xianbei royal court in Danhan Mountain, defeated the Xiongnu and captured hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep, and conquered the three tribes, do you remember?"

"Wan Sheng! Wansheng! Wansheng! The flying feather riders, white horse servants and yellow turban veterans in the audience shouted in unison, which had the potential to swallow mountains and rivers, making many recruits show envy.

"In the past, you followed Ben Hou and went to Chenliu to form an alliance and work together to discuss Dong, do you remember?"

"Wan Sheng! Wansheng! Wansheng! ”

"In the past, you followed Benhou, went on an expedition to the Western Regions, and exterminated the Thirty-Six Nations Alliance, do you remember?"

"Wan Sheng! Wansheng! Wansheng! ”

At this moment, even louder shouts rose into the sky, reaching into the sky. The soldiers of Youzhou were enthusiastic, and what Huo Yu said was a glorious record.

"Why are we like that? Ben Hou once swore that Han'er would not be a slave! Ben Hou once vowed to defend his family and the country! Ben Hou once vowed to lead everyone to a good life! ”

"But today, the Han family is dead, the princes are divided, and there are still some people who are hungry."

"Today, Benhou raised troops, with the intention of returning the world's hundred letters and protecting the peace of our people!"

"Would you like to?"

"We swear to follow the lord to the death and rule the world!" The generals behind him were the first to kneel and bow.

"We swear to follow the general! We swear to follow the general! "100,000 soldiers fell to their knees in the dark, how could such a scene not be shocking.

"Hahahaha! Okay, Ben Hou and others will dominate the world! If Benhou dies, there will be descendants to take it! If you die, you will have your own marquis to support your family! Huo Yu looked up to the sky and laughed.

In the spring of 206 A.D., when the people of the world were still busy with spring ploughing, Huo Yu sent 100,000 soldiers from Jixian County to the south, and the soldiers pointed directly at Cao Cao's base camp Chenliu, which completely opened the prelude to the war to unify the whole country.

Cao Cao got the news ten days later, originally thinking that Huo Yu would send troops after spring ploughing, who would have thought that Huo Yu would not play cards according to common sense.

On the one hand, he urgently ordered to recruit the army that was in Tuntian, and on the other hand, he sent scouts to investigate the movements of the Youzhou army. At the same time, Xiahoudun was ordered to strengthen the defense along the Yellow River.

"An army of 100,000?" When Cao Cao got Huo Yu's command of the troops, he was taken aback.

Let's not talk about the 100,000 enemies in front of him, let's talk about Qingzhou, Huo Yu ordered Zang Ba to garrison 40,000 soldiers. Yuzhou has 30,000 troops led by Huang Zhong, and 50,000 troops led by Liang Xi in the direction of Bingzhou, if you add Zhang Ji and Ma Teng's 70,000 horses who arrived in Luoyang not long ago......

"Hiss..." even though Xun Yu and Cheng Yu couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when they heard the report.

"Nearly 300,000 soldiers and horses...... Thanks to the love of the virtuous brother! Hahaha! Cao Cao's state of mind has to be admired.

In fact, Huo Yu's real strength is far more than these, and the combined strength of Gan Ning's navy, Zhang Fei, Zhang Yan, and Chen Zhi and others who are far away in Yizhou is not an exaggeration to exceed 500,000.

At this time, Cao Cao seemed calm on the surface, but he had no confidence in his heart. After all, he was attacked on three sides, but fortunately, Sima Yi, who was guarding Xuchang, firmly nailed Huang Zhong, otherwise, it would be difficult to turn over when he was attacked on all sides.

"Lord, Huo Yu's army is indeed strong. However, the soldiers and horses of Qingzhou, Luoyang, and Bingzhou have not intended to enter the army so far. After regaining consciousness, Xun Yu immediately spoke.

At first glance, the army of 300,000 is indeed a bit scary. However, after a calm analysis, there was no famous general in the remaining four directions except Huang Zhong, so Xun Yu asserted that only the Jizhou direction was the focus of defense.

"Subordinate reconsideration! Lord, do you still remember Sima Yi's words? Cheng Yu added.

"Guandu?" Cao Cao suddenly woke up.

Since Sima Yi proposed that Guandu was the place of decisive battle, Cao Cao ordered Cao Ren to lead his troops to build a defense here. It's not long, but it's better than nothing.

In this way, Cao Cao can completely shrink his defense and wait for Huo Yu to come to the door. In fact, Cao Cao also thought about sending troops to harass, but Huo Yu's flying feather cavalry and white horse righteous servants were the first of today's cavalry. My own bit of tiger and leopard riding is probably not enough for others to stuff their teeth.

Let's fight in the field, Youzhou is dominated by cavalry, and fighting out of the city is no different from sending them to death. Defending the city cost? That's just stalling for time. It's better to concentrate your forces in one place, and maybe there will be a chance to win. After all, the consumption of an army of 100,000 is an astronomical amount.

Although the banks of the Yellow River were ceded, their own supply routes were greatly reduced, and conversely, the supply routes of the Youzhou army were greatly lengthened. In addition, as long as the morale and morale of the army are still there, then there is the strength to fight.

Liyang, as an important military town on the north bank of the Yellow River, was the primary destination of Huo Yu's trip. The army chose the road, and if it did not have a suitable foothold, it would obviously not work.

Although it is located on the north bank of the Yellow River, it was able to allow the soldiers to get a full rest here before the war. Otherwise, what is the difference between killing the South Bank in such a stupid way and sending it to death.

With an army of 100,000 troops, the daily consumption rate is amazing, and having an advanced supply base is just in line with Huo Yu's strategic intentions. Judging from the information sent back by the Dark Feather Guard, Cao Cao completely contracted his defense, and he had the intention of waiting for the rabbit.

Recalling the information of later generations, Yuan Shao was aggressive in his crusade against Cao Cao, but due to the disagreement of his advisers, he missed the opportunity to fight Cao Cao in Liyang. The army held each other for two months without a fight, and in the end, Cao Cao took the initiative to retreat to the south bank due to insufficient supplies of grain and grass.

Huo Yu is not Yuan Shao, history will never be acted!
