Chapter 164 The Great War in the Central Plains is about to break out

"Is this battle really inevitable?"

Han Jun was thinking about this question, between him and Cao Cao, there would be a battle sooner or later, and he was already mentally prepared for this. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info However, he didn't expect that this day would come so early.

Seeing Han Jun's frowning brows and a solemn expression on his face, Guo Jia asked in a deep voice: "Although this Zhan Jia does not dare to assert that it will win, but our army has at least eight points of victory, but I don't know why the lord is worried?" ”

"Eight-point victory?"

Han Jun pursed his lips, but in his heart he remembered the battle of Guandu in history, I am afraid that before the results come out, the whole world thinks that Cao Cao can have the last laugh, I am afraid that he will not even be able to do it.

Yuan Shao, who sits in the land of Qingyu and Ji Sizhou, and has hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers and strong generals, has not crossed the hurdle, he Han Jun, is it okay?

Taking a deep breath, Han Jun said slowly, "I always feel that I am not completely ready. This battle is related to the ownership of the hegemony of the Central Plains, and it is also related to the general trend of the world. I thought it would have been more cautious. ”

"Huh?"

Guo Jia keenly captured Han Jun's hesitation, and this was the most terrifying and deadly thing for an upcoming big war.

It will be the courage of the soldiers, and the handsome is the soul of the generals. The confidence of the commanders of the three armies is still insufficient, how can they expect the generals under their command to turn the tide?

Guo Jia got up slowly, paced to Han Jun's handsome case, put his finger on the map and said loudly: "Lord, please look!" ”

"Huh?"

Han Jun, who was in a state of worry, suddenly came back to his senses and looked in the direction of Guo Jia's finger as if he was asking Huang Zhong Dalu.

"Here, Puyang, Cao Cao's base camp is located."

Guo Jia's fingers were flying, and he quickly pointed out a few places on the map, "Here, this is Pengcheng, and it is also where our army is located." Here, it is a plain, if there is no accident, General Zilong should be here at this time. And here, it is Hanoi, where General Van Yuan sits. Here, it is the East China Sea, where the Mi family has deep roots and great power, and the Youhe Water Division commanded by General Ziyi should also be active on the sea east of the East China Sea at this time. ”

Guo Jia paused slightly, and then asked, "Lord, have you ever understood?" ”

Han Jun nodded silently, his fists clenched slightly, and his breathing became heavier.

Guo Jia smiled and said: "In the past, in the next battle, Zhang Liang broke the overlord of Western Chu with an ambush on all sides, and ambushed soldiers in all directions, like a sky net trapped birds. Although the overlord is brave, he cannot escape defeat, which is similar to the situation today! The lord can enter Peiguo from the north, and after the soldiers send to the county, Cao Cao is worried about the ancestral temple and ancestral hall, and he is bound to send troops to rescue; At this time, the main male flying pigeon passed the book to General Zilong, waved his troops to cross the river to the south, and approached Jibei; General Wenyuan sent troops to Cong Hanoi and attacked Chenliu along the river; After General Ziyi landed in the East China Sea, he could lead his troops and horses to take Taishan County directly. Under such a siege on all sides, Cao Jun will inevitably be anxious, and he can't take care of each other, and it is easy to break it! ”

"Are you surrounded on all sides?"

Han Jun squinted his eyes and pondered for a moment, then asked, "But if Cao Cao doesn't care about it and concentrates his superior forces to concentrate on all the way, how to deal with it?" ”

Zhang Liangbu's ten-sided ambush won a complete victory, but it does not mean that this strategy is foolproof. Didn't Jiang Gong in modern history prove this with his failure? The previous four aggressive encirclements and suppressions all ended in disgrace, and now Han Jun does not have such a strong capital to pay this tuition.

"Let him come as many ways as he wants, I'll only go all the way!"

Han Jun wasn't sure if Cao Cao would think of this solution, so he didn't dare to take this risk easily.

"The lord is too worried!"

Guo Jia said indifferently: "Cao Jun is mostly foot soldiers, but our army is mainly cavalry, and its mobility is far better than that of the enemy, and our army has flying pigeons to transmit messages, and under the exchange of news, Cao Jun has broken his leg, and I am afraid it will be difficult to find a powerful fighter!" ”

"That's just as well."

Han Jun bowed his head lightly and said, "Even if you can't win, you shouldn't be defeated." ”

Is it war, or is it peace?

This problem, which gave Han Jun a headache, was also bothering Cao Cao.

Xi Zhicai let go to the west, making Cao Cao suddenly lonely. There is no one around him who can accurately grasp his thinking, keep up with his rhythm, discuss the situation in the world with him, and make suggestions for him to check and fill in the gaps.

Like Cheng Yu, Dong Zhao and others, although their talents are also quite good, they are more talented in managing things than in making things.

"Zixiao did a good job in Linyi, although he was defeated for a while, but he also blocked Zhao Zilong's footsteps to the south." Cao Cao squinted his eyes and said: "But the soldiers and horses led by Han Jun are like a fish in our throats for us, but now that the New Year is approaching, the soldiers are tired of war, what should we do, what do you think?" ”

Cao Hong said sonorously: "Although the soldiers are war-weary, they have the ambition to serve the country. Han Junbing pointed directly at Peiguo, if he didn't pay attention to it, then my Cao Clan's temple would be difficult to protect. Therefore, the war is inevitable, and I hope that the lord will not hesitate and miss the opportunity! ”

The Cao clan of Qian County, although it is nothing compared to the Yuan clan of Runan, the Xun clan of Yingchuan and other high-ranking dignitaries, but after all, it is also a local clan, and in the eyes of the Cao clan, it is a sacred place, and it must not be allowed to be touched by others.

"What Zilian said is reasonable, and the last general thinks that this battle is inevitable!"

Xiahou Yuan echoed: "Peiguo is mountainous and hilly, which is not conducive to cavalry galloping, so it is an excellent place for our army to fight a decisive battle. Although the Youhe Iron Cavalry is brave, it is in Hebei, where Pingchuan is a horse. In the Central Plains, it is tantamount to a tiger falling into Pingyang, and the dragon is trapped in the shallows, and it is not difficult to break it! ”

Cao Cao shook his head helplessly and said: "In addition to the soldiers and horses left behind in the counties, the number of soldiers available to our army is only thirty or forty thousand. ”

Xiahou Yuan muttered: "Han Jun has about 20,000 soldiers, and he is well-equipped, with abundant grain and grass, if the lord takes me as his general, the number of soldiers and horses should be no less than 20,000!" ”

"yes!"

Cao Cao nodded and said, "Looking at Han Jun's way of using soldiers, it has always been expensive but not too expensive. Therefore, the number of troops and horses sent by our army can only be greater than it, and it must not be less. However, if Han Jun's subordinates sent troops elsewhere at this time, how should they respond? ”

Xiahou Yuan frowned and said: "Yanzhou is thousands of miles away from Youzhou, and it is also freezing at this time, it is not easy to mobilize troops and horses, where does Han Jun transfer troops from?" ”

Cao Cao looked at Xiahou Yuan fixedly and didn't say a word.

Xiahou Yuan lowered his head and groaned for a moment, then suddenly exclaimed, stomped his feet and said, "Hanoi!" ”

Cao Cao retracted his gaze and said with a wry smile: "It's Hanoi!" Although the combat strength of the Hanoi army cannot be compared with the Youhe army, as far as I know, that Zhang Zhang Wen is far from being an idle person. Moreover, Zhang Yan of Bingzhou can also wave his troops south at any time, how should he deal with it at that time? ”

Xiahou Yuan pinched his teeth, gasped and said, "If this is the case, I am afraid that Chen will not be able to protect it." ”

"You can lead troops to fight Han Jun in seconds, and Zhang Liao will hand it over to me!"

Xiahou stood up angrily, patted his chest and said confidently: "Thinking about that Zhang Liao, he is just a partial general under Lu Bu, what is there to fear?" The lord only needs to have 5,000 soldiers and horses with me, which is enough to block that fight outside the sour jujube city! ”

Cao Cao glared at Xiahou Xuan, and said helplessly: "That Xu Huang was just a lieutenant under Yang Feng before he returned to Han Jun. Han Boyan's knowledge of people is known to the world, but if you don't care about it, sooner or later you will suffer because of it! ”

Thinking that Xu Huang was in Anyi City, stubbornly blocking the day and night onslaught of the world's famous general Huangfu Song's dozens of times the army, Xiahoudun couldn't help but shrink his neck and didn't dare to speak anymore.

Dong Zhao arched his hand and asked, "What does the lord mean, is he seeking peace with that Han Boyan?" ”

Cao Cao rolled his eyes and asked, "Then do you think Han Boyan will agree?" ”

Dong Zhao thought for a while and said, "I think it's possible." ”

"Is it possible? How can it be? ”

Cao Cao sneered: "Under such a good situation, how could he give up easily? Destroy the Huns, sweep Xianbei, set Wuhuan, conquer Liaodong, and level the overseas ...... Guan Han Boyan will do his best in every battle, and he has never given up halfway. With an army of 40,000 and moving south, Gongren won't think that he is just to solve the danger of Xuzhou, right? If only for this reason, he only needs to Chen Bing Huanghe, and I have to retreat and return with a letter, how can he go deep into the hinterland of the Central Plains without hesitating the hard work? ”

Dong Zhao arched his hand with a gloomy face, sighed helplessly and stepped aside.

Xiahoudun asked anxiously: "It's not a war, it's not a war, so what is the opinion of the lord?" ”

Cao Cao took a deep breath and said slowly: "I intend to shrink my forces, stick to Puyang, and seek opportunities to break the enemy!" ”

"Huh?"

"Lord, don't do it!"

"Think twice!"

As soon as Cao Cao's words came out, the audience was in an uproar, and everyone looked at Cao Cao in disbelief to see if he had gone crazy to come up with such a plan.

"Why not?"

Cao Cao stood up, slapped his hands heavily on several cases, and said: "The Youji Army is on an expedition, and it is the New Year's Pass, so it must be impatient. If we engage in war with them at this time, it will do our army a hundred harms and no benefits! I also know what you are worried about, it is nothing more than that Han Jun is afraid that Han Jun will destroy my Cao Clan's Grass Temple and loot the innocent people. But I'm sure he won't do it! ”

Many people may have the same doubt, that is, where did Cao Cao's confidence come from?

Maybe even he couldn't say why, but instinct told him that Han Jun was worthy of his trust.

Returning to the tent of the commander of the camp of the Youhe Army outside Pengcheng, as if he had a heart, Han Jun was also asking Guo Jia this question, "What if Cao Cao shrinks his forces and shrinks into the city?" Our army is mainly cavalry, and it is not good at siege operations, and even if it can break the city in the end, it will inevitably suffer heavy losses, and the gains outweigh the losses. If there is a slight omission and the enemy takes advantage of it, will it not be too late to regret it then? ”
