When Cao and Liu were in the middle of the battle, Yuan Shao's advisor Xu You suggested that Yuan Shao "raise an army to attack him", but Yuan Shao refused to accept it on the grounds that his son was ill, causing Cao Cao to calmly defeat Liu Bei and return to the military crossing. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

In the fourth year of Jian'an, in May, Yuan Shao sent Chen Lin to write and publish the text, in which Cao Cao was scolded so much that he was almost unbearable.

In the middle of the year, Yuan Shao marched to Liyang in an attempt to cross the river to seek a decisive battle with the main force of Cao's army. He first sent Yan Liang to attack Liu Yan, the Taishou of Dongjun in Baima, in an attempt to seize the key points on the south bank of the Yellow River to ensure the main force crossing the river. In order to gain the initiative and win the first battle, Cao Cao personally led his troops north to relieve the siege of Baima.

At this time, the strategist Cheng Yu thought that Yuan Shao had many troops, and suggested that he should attack the east and west, disperse his forces, first lead troops to Yanjin, cross the river in disguise to attack Yuan's rear, make Yuan Shao divide his troops to the west, and then send light cavalry to quickly attack Yuan's army attacking Baima, attack it unprepared, and definitely defeat Yan Liang.

Cao Cao adopted this suggestion, and Yuan Shao really divided his troops to Yanjin. Cao Cao took the opportunity to ride lightly, sent Cao Hong and Guan Yu as the forwards, and rushed to the white horse. Guan Yu quickly approached Yan Liang's army, Yan Liang was killed in a hurry, and Yuan's army was defeated.

After Cao Cao relieved the siege of Baima, the people who migrated Baima retreated westward along the Yellow River, and Yuan Shao led the army across the river to pursue the army to the south of Yanjin, and sent the generals Wen Chou and Han Meng to continue to lead the troops to pursue Cao's army.

Cao Cao had only more than 1,000 cavalry at that time, stationed under Nanhan (in the south of Baima), while Yuan's army reached 5,000 or 6,000 cavalry, and there were still tens of thousands of infantry to follow. Cao Cao ordered his soldiers to unsaddle and release their horses, and deliberately abandoned their baggage on the side of the road to lure the enemy.

When Yuan Jun saw that he had really hit the plan, he scrambled for his belongings. Cao Cao suddenly attacked, and finally defeated Yuan's army, killed Wen Chou, repelled Han Meng, and successfully retreated to Guandu.

Yuan's army lost the first battle, but it still had an absolute advantage in troops. In late May, they marched to Yangwu and prepared to attack Xuchang in the south. At the beginning of June, the main force of Yuan's army approached Guandu and set up camp on the sand, which was about dozens of miles wide from east to west. Cao Cao also set up camp to confront Yuan's army. In just a few days, Cao's army once took the initiative to attack, but it could not win, so it had no choice but to retreat to the camp and hold on.

Yuan Shao built a turret, piled up soil like a mountain, and shot Cao Ying with arrows. Cao Jun made a kind of thunderbolt with a stone-throwing device, and the stone destroyed the building built by Yuan Jun. Yuan's army dug tunnels to attack again, and Cao's army also dug long trenches in the camp to resist.

The two sides held each other for more than ten days, Cao Cao's external situation was difficult, the front soldiers were short of food, the soldiers were tired, and the rear was not stable, Cao Cao almost lost the confidence to hold on. At this moment, after the ghost genius Guo Jia put forward to him the conclusion that "Cao Cao won ten victories, Yuan Shao lost ten", Cao Cao decided to stick to the crisis and strengthen the defense.

Cao Cao ordered Ren Jun, who was in charge of logistics and supply, to take the Ten Columns as one part to shorten the front and rear distance of the transport team, and to use the double formation (two arrays) to strengthen the escort and prevent the Yuan army from attacking; On the other hand, he actively sought and captured fighters to defeat the Yuan army, and soon sent Le Jin and Shi Jian to intercept and burn thousands of grain wagons of the Yuan army, which increased the difficulties of the Yuan army.

In mid-June, Yuan Shao sent another car to transport grain, and ordered Chun Yuqiong to lead 10,000 troops to escort it, and stationed it in the old city and Wuchao, about 20 kilometers north of Yuan's army camp. At this time, Xu You, Yuan Shao's first strategist, actually surrendered to Cao Cao and suggested that Cao Cao's light troops surprise attack Wuchao and burn his baggage.

Cao Cao immediately put it into practice, leaving Cao Hong and Xun Yu to guard the camp, personally led 5,000 soldiers and horses, fraudulently used the banner of the Yuan army, tied the horse's mouth, each brought a bunch of firewood and grass, and took advantage of the darkness to take the path to sneak attack the black nest. Immediately upon arrival, the siege was set on fire. When Yuan Shao heard that Cao Cao had attacked Wuchao, he made a mistake and only sent a force to rescue Wuchao, and used the main force to storm the camp of Guandu Cao's army.

How do you know that Cao's camp is strong and can't be attacked. When Cao's army rushed to attack Wuchao Chun Yuqiong's camp, Yuan Shao's reinforcements were already approaching. Cao Cao fought to the death, broke Yuan's army, killed Chun Yuqiong, and burned all his grain and grass.

The news of the burning of Wuchao's grain and grass reached the front line of the Yuan army, and the Yuan army's heart was shaken and the internal division was divided. Cao's army took advantage of the situation and defeated Yuan's army. Yuan Shao retreated in the direction of Qingzhou with 800 horsemen in a panic.

In this battle, Cao's army successively annihilated and killed more than 400,000 Yuan troops, and countless surrenders were received, and the battle of Guandu ended with Cao's victory and Yuan's defeat.

At the beginning of the Battle of Yuan Cao Guandu, in Changshan, Liu Feng personally led an army of 5,000 troops, appointed Pang Tong as a military advisor, Zhao Yu as a guide, and Zhu Ling and Tian Yu as two generals, and surrendered to Zhang Yan.

Originally, Zhao Yun wanted to come with him, but Liu Feng refused, because there were more important things to be done by Zhao Yun. In desperation, Zhao Yun actually asked Liu Feng to take Zhao Yu, who was familiar with the terrain of Changshan, as a guide and traveled with him.

Changshan is a relatively poor place in Jizhou, although it occupies a large area, the population is relatively scarce, with the march of the army, what appeared in front of Liu Feng was the deserted jungle, looking at the endless, dense dense forest, Liu Feng couldn't help but take a deep breath, this in the relatively flat Changshan, seeing such a large area of woods, it was really unexpected to him.

Not long after walking, just as the army was about to enter the forest, Liu Feng suddenly ordered the army to stop, and asked Zhu Ling and Tian Yu to lead the army to retreat a mile, to the spacious flat land, and set up a formation.

Zhu Ling and Tian Yu didn't say much, and did as ordered, Pang Tong looked at the slowly retreating army, urged the horse to approach Liu Feng, and said to him: "Isn't the lord Mo unable to trust Zhang Yan?" ”

Liu Feng shook his head, held a horsewhip, pointed to the dense forest in front of him and said with a smile: "It's not that we can't believe him, it's just that we can't afford to lose, even if any of them miss, our main goal is after the battle of Guandu, it's not wrong to be cautious here." ”

Pang Tong was silent, and then nodded, this front is densely forested, and the dead leaves are piled up I don't know how thick, and when I meet a general who knows a little bit about the art of war, I will not rashly lead the troops in. The reason why he was like this just now was mainly because he believed in Zhang Yan too much, and at the same time, he also wanted to show Zhang Yan his sincerity, but now that he thinks about it, he is still a little risky.

"Do you have any connector codes?" Liu Feng asked Pang Tong.

"Well, I said it before." Pang Tong nodded, and as he spoke, he took out a longbow from the horse behind him, put on a tail of arrows, and with a "chirp", he saw the arrow feathers fly into the sky, flew in the sky for a while, and then disappeared into the jungle in the distance.

Before the Three Kingdoms, literati were all good at martial arts, Liu Feng was not surprised by Pang Tong's archery skills, and suddenly remembered something, Liu Feng turned his head to him and asked: "Military advisor, how many soldiers and horses does this Zhang Yan have?" Is it all hiding in this dense forest? ”

"There are still more than 70,000 capable warriors, and there are more than 200,000 women, children, and children." (To be continued.) )
