The officers and troops of the Seventh Route gathered in Jizhou finally converged. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 The seven roads are, Huangfu Song, Cao De, Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Gongsun Zan and Liu Bei. In fact, it can also be called a two-way army. After all, Cao De and Cao Cao are together. And Huangfu Song and Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu are together. As for Liu Bei, he has disappeared since the beginning of Armageddon, and he has not yet shown his head. However, according to Cao De's estimation, it should also be near Julu. After all, the big cake of Julu City is almost time to share now. Liu Bei is unlikely to be absent.

The six routes of the Seven Routes Army have converged in Gwangjong City. Among them, Huangfu Song had 30,000 horses, Cao De and Cao Cao had 22,000 horses, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu had 50,000 horses, and Gongsun Zan had 10,000 horses. A total of 110,000 troops gathered in Gwangjong City. And the Yellow Turban Army, as the opponent, is nesting in Julu City at the moment, with a total of 110,000 horses. In terms of numbers, it can be said that they are evenly matched. However, the actual situation is that the officers and the army have the advantage.

Julu City has always been a holy place in the hearts of Taiping believers. Because there is a great sage and good teacher Zhang Jiao here. It can be said that the mountain is not high, there are fairies, the water is not deep, the dragon is spiritual, and the giant deer is no longer strong and horned. In terms of implementation, Julu City at this time was not at all what the Taiping believers imagined, there was no fighting, no disease, and no hunger. However, this did not affect the fanaticism of the Taiping followers towards Zhang Jiao at all.

Zhang Jiao has not treated people for a long time, and he has not shown the so-called miracles for a long time. Because Zhang Jiao was busy drinking and having fun, although Zhang Jiao was still very low-key in front of all believers, when there was no one, Zhang Jiao's expression was really unexpected. However, everyone in Julu City knew that Zhang Jiao was here, and that alone was enough. Therefore, after the 110,000 official legions besieged Julu City. The Yellow Turban Army in Julu City did not panic in the slightest, but was as orderly as before. Because they believe that as soon as the great sage and good teacher come out, a divine thunder will rain down from the sky and chop all the ignorant people under the city to death. It's a pity that the wishes are always good, and the reality is cruel.

There were originally 70,000 Yellow Turban troops in Julu City, and when Zhang Liang fled from Guangping City, he took nearly 40,000 people with him, plus the 10,000 Yellow Turban Army originally stationed in Guangzong City. Zhang Liang brought nearly 50,000 people into Julu City. Therefore, there are 110,000 armed forces in Julu City alone. In addition, with the fanatical believers, it is easy to make up the number of 200,000 as long as Zhang Jiao gives an order. Although these 200,000 people are simply paper tigers, it is not uncommon for ants to bite and kill elephants.

Judging from Zhang Jiao's courage to rebel, Zhang Jiao is definitely not a person who sits idly by. Therefore, Zhang Jiao decided to take the initiative.

Soon, on the second day of the 110,000 officers and troops gathered in Guangzong City. There is a Yellow Turban Army who has the title of messenger to give Huangfu Song a war letter. Zhang Jiao asked Huangfu Song to fight a decisive battle in the field at noon the next day. This is something that almost no one expected. According to Cao De's thoughts, Zhang Jiao is either thinking about escaping or committing suicide now, how can he still make an appointment with the official army.

Huangfu Song is a very upright person. Since the other party has come to issue a war letter, and as the commander-in-chief of the three armed forces appointed by the central government, he can't be smaller than the leaders of a group of rebels. Huangfu Song sent a polite messenger from the Yellow Turban Army to deliver the letter in the future, and clearly replied that he would line up and fight with Zhang Jiao in a dignified battle.

As soon as the Yellow Turban Army envoy left, Huangfu Song's Chinese army tent exploded. Outside the tent sounded like a song and dance party was going on inside.

Huangfu Song really couldn't stand it anymore, and slapped the table suddenly, "Don't make any noise, the old man's head is big." There was silence in the tent. Huangfu Song cleared his throat: "Generals, go back to the camp and get ready." War begins tomorrow at noon. ”

As soon as Cao De and Cao Cao returned to their place, a guard immediately came to Huangfu Song and asked them to discuss the matter. Cao De and Cao Cao glanced at each other, and the two nodded in unison, and then Cao De also called Xu Shu.

The footsteps of Cao De and the three woke up Huangfu Song, who was studying the map in the big tent. Huangfu Song glanced up, saw Cao De and a few people coming, beckoned a few people to sit down, and drank tea soup first, as if he was still waiting for someone. Soon after, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu also came, and Huangfu Song still asked everyone to wait. After a while, Gongsun Chan came in, and Huangfu Song opened the topic, "I thought about it carefully, this battle book under the corner is a bit strange." Could it be that Zhang Jiao is so sure that he will defeat us in the field with his repeatedly defeated army? There must be a conspiracy in this. ”

Yuan Shuhu stood up, "The general doesn't have to worry, when my army is dispatched, it will be like a bamboo, no matter what conspiracy he has, in the face of absolute strength, any strategy is useless." ”

"Yuan Highway is really a big breath, but I don't know the reason why the arrogant army will be defeated?" It was Gongsun Chan who answered Yuan Shu's words, and it was obvious that Gongsun Chan didn't have much interest in this second ancestor.

"What, does General Gongsun want to try my military might?" Yuan Shu said excitedly.

Huangfu Song saw that he was about to quarrel again, so he quickly stopped the two, "The old man asked you to come, not to quarrel, but to discuss the use of soldiers." If you want to quarrel again, go out and quarrel by yourself. ”

After Huangfu Song finished speaking, the entire tent fell into silence again. Huangfu Song raised his eyes and looked, "Why, can't you all come up with any good ideas?" ”

Cao De suddenly got up, clasped his fists and said to Huangfu Song: "I think that Yuan Benchu is the fourth and third dukes, and he must be involved in a wide range of things. Why don't you listen to what Ben Chu has to say! In the last sentence, Cao De said to Yuan Shao with a smile. In the original history, Yuan Shao was the most powerful prince in the early stage of the princes' struggle for hegemony, and he would definitely not be in vain. Besides, Yuan Shao has rarely spoken since he joined the army. There must be some idea.

Yuan Shao saw that the ball had reached his feet, and he could take this opportunity to show it. But Yuan Shao still glanced at Cao De fiercely, got up and hugged his fists and said to Huangfu Song: "General, I think that Zhang Jiao must have a plan if he does this. Zhang Jiao's battle book is about a decisive battle with our army. That is to say, our army must do its best. Our army has 110,000 troops, and this is clearly placed. And Zhang Jiao already has nearly 120,000 troops under his command, if Ding Zhuang is recruited from Julu City, then Zhang Jiao's soldiers and horses will definitely be immeasurable. Saying that, Yuan Shao walked back and forth in the tent for a few steps, and then continued: "I think that on the day of the decisive battle, Zhang Jiao will definitely not be exhausted, so what will be the arrangement of his remaining army?" Will it attack my empty camp. Cut off the rear of our army. ”

Then, Huangfu Song continued: "Zhang Liang has entered Julu City? ”

Cao De immediately got up and said, "Back to the general, there is a chance that there will be nine times out of ten." On the same day, when he was preparing to rush to the aid of Guangping City, Zhang Liang made a detailed report, and Zhang Liang retreated to Julu City with 40,000 defeated troops of Guangping and the defenders of Guangzong. ”

Huangfu Song nodded, "The old man thinks that this Liang is a bit strategic. It's a pity that it's not the right way. If Zhang Liang is giving advice to Zhang Jiao, I must not be unguarded against. ”

At this time, Yuan Shu saw his brother's long face, and he also ran to brush his sense of existence, "Since that old Taoist dared to take advantage of the emptiness of Guangzong to come and rob the camp, then why can't he take advantage of the emptiness of the giant deer to capture the giant deer?" Yuan Shu finally paid some decent attention.

Huangfu Song nodded, "This plan is feasible. Yuan Shu heard that Huangfu Song agreed with his point of view, and smiled demonstratively.

Huangfu Song looked around, "Do you have any suggestions?" At this time, Cao De glanced at Xu Shu. Xu Shu understands that this is to show his skills.

Xu Shu stood up and saluted everyone around him, and Yuan Shu, who had just finished brushing his sense of existence, saw a nameless person stand up, and immediately asked: "Who are you, do you know what kind of place this is." ”

As the saying goes, it depends on the owner to beat a dog. Xu Shu was looked down upon, how could Cao De's face be bright. What's more, Xu Shu has been standing behind Cao De. There is no reason why Yuan Shu doesn't know who Xu Shu is, this is just Yuan Shu's excuse to play.

Cao De immediately stood up, ignored Yuan Shu, and said directly to Huangfu Song: "General, this person's surname is Xu Mingshu Yuanzhi, and he is a military advisor under the command of a lowly position. The humble post has come all the way from Hanzhong, thanks to the guidance of the military advisor all the way. This man is ashamed of his scheming and humble duties. ”

When Huangfu Song heard Xu Shu's coming, he suddenly became interested, and said to Xu Shu: "It seems that I have to ask Xu Junshi what to say?" ”

Xu Shu first saluted Cao De, and then smiled slightly: "Thank you, General Miao Zan." I don't dare to be a teacher, but there are some things to see. I thought that the Yellow Turban Army would fight a decisive battle with our army. The location is definitely in a good place with a good view. Our army has 110,000 troops, and the Yellow Turban Army will definitely send the same number of soldiers. Then this battle is a field battle. Field warfare is nothing more than shield for shield and knife for knife. However, our army has the advantages that the Yellow Turban Army did not have. That's the cavalry. The few groups of war horses of the Yellow Turban Army are mostly in the hands of many high-ranking generals. There were no formed cavalry at all. Therefore, the cavalry of our army will be the greatest threat to the Yellow Turban Army. A suggestion was to assemble all the cavalry of the whole army, temporarily hand it over to a general, and carry out a surprise attack at the right time and from the right place. The Yellow Turban Army is mostly a rabble, and it can be useful to fight a good fight, and once there is some resistance, it will definitely collapse. Therefore, there are not too many soldiers in our army to dispatch for a decisive battle. Fifty thousand is enough. After speaking, Xu Shu stroked his beard confidently.

Huangfu Song thought for a moment after listening to what Xu Shu said, and nodded lightly, "Please Mr. continue." ”

Xu Shu looked at Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, "What the two Yuan generals said is reasonable. Therefore, a certain suggestion was to leave a group of men and horses in Guangzong City to guard against the sneak attack of the Yellow Turban Army, and send another team of men and horses to attack the empty Julu City. In this way, no matter what conspiracy the Yellow Turban Army has, as long as it cannot achieve victory on the main battlefield, the Yellow Turban Army can only retreat back to Julu City again and become the turtle in his urn. ”

After listening to this, Huangfu Song glanced at Xu Shu with appreciation. It's a good plan. At the same time, he glanced at Cao De with envious eyes. Where did you find such a master? Immediately afterwards, Huangfu Song's eyes showed heat. If such a talent enters the official career, wouldn't it have an infinite effect on Jiangshan Sheji, but I don't know if Cao De, this kid, will be released.

Huangfu Song calmed down his mind and continued to ask Xu Shu and said, "Since the plan was conceived by Mr., who will lead the various armies?" ”

When Xu Shu heard it, this is a job that offends people. In case a certain general does not get benefits at the time because of his own arrangement, then he will have to bear the black cauldron. Xu Shu hurriedly shook his hand and said, "I just came into contact with a few generals, and I don't know the generals. So, I didn't think about it. It's just that a certain suggestion is that the camp of Guangzong should be guarded by my general. ”

In this way, if on the frontal battlefield, the official army wins, and successfully occupies Julu City, then Cao De can get less benefits. After listening to Xu Shu's suggestion, several people present showed knowing smiles. This kid called Xu Shu, smart but mistaken by cleverness, it depends on how your master and others will clean you up.

At this time, Gongsun Zhan, who had an old enmity with Cao De, stood up. "I have been in contact with Brother An Bang a few times, and I feel that Brother An Bang is a calm person, and I am most relieved that he will guard the city and the camp. Haha" Gongsun Zhan's views were quickly supported by Yuan Shao and Yuan. It was difficult to disobey the will of the people, and Huangfu Song had no choice but to arrange for Cao De and Cao Cao to take their headquarters to guard Guangzong City and the camp outside the city. As everyone knows, Cao De's heart at this time has already blossomed.

Then, Huangfu Song looked at the remaining four generals, "Yuan Highway, since you proposed the plan to attack Julu while the army is in battle, then you are the one who attacked Julu, and you will take your headquarters to attack Julu City." ”

When Yuan Shu heard this, his heart suddenly blossomed. This is a fat errand, as long as the city is broken, the first gong will be my Yuan. Yuan Shu immediately agreed.

Yuan Shu had a good errand, and Yuan Shao quit. I was the first to speak. Commander-in-chief, why did you forget me.

But Huangfu Song really wanted to forget about Yuan Shao. After arranging Yuan Shu, he directly arranged Gongsun Zhan. "Gongsun Boju. You are full of cavalry, and you must know a lot about cavalry combat. You command all the cavalry, and when the army engages, it is up to you to decide the final victory. When Gongsun Chan heard this, this errand was okay, although it was not as good as Yuan Shu, but it was not too much of a loss. Gongsun Chan immediately agreed.

In the end, Yuan Shao and Huangfu Song themselves were left. "Yuan Benchu. The old man heard that your fierce generals are like clouds, and you are also brave. Dare to line up with the old man before the Yellow Turban Army. Fight a decisive battle with the Yellow Turbans. Yuan Shao saw that Huangfu Song praised himself like this, and if he didn't agree, he wouldn't give face to the commander-in-chief. Yuan Shao also agreed.

Subsequently, Huangfu Song saw that the arrangements were in place. Straighten your face. Pick up the token in front of you. "Generals, come forward and get the token." In the end, everyone stepped forward one by one and got the token. When it was Gongsun Zhan's turn, Huangfu Song said to Gongsun Zhan: "Bo Jue, the old man will hand over his cavalry to you, and I hope you will not disappoint the old man." After Gongsun Chan passed a reassuring look to Huangfu Song, he also took the token.

Yuan Shao looked at this posture, and he really merged the cavalry. "Since I am humbled and fight with the general against the Yellow Turban Army, then the cavalry under my command will also be handed over to General Gongsun, hoping that General Gongsun will break the enemy army."

In this way, Gongsun Chan changed from the original 10,000 cavalry to nearly 20,000, which is really not a small number for large-scale corps operations.

Yuan Shu also planned to break through the gate of Julu City, and the cavalry would take the lead in rushing into the city to snatch the battle merits. Therefore, Yuan Shu left his cavalry behind. Yuan Shu's cavalry is actually not too much, only a few more than 3,000 people, for Gongsun Zhan, who already has 20,000 cavalry, it is really dispensable. And Cao De needs to guard the city and the battalion, and the cavalry is indispensable to serve as a firefighter. Therefore, Cao De's 5,000 cavalry did not participate in the decisive battle.

At this point, everything is over, just waiting for the big war.
