After the discussion, Cao Cao immediately summoned Cao Pi, Cao Chun, Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, and 5,000 tigers and leopards to join forces, and then went to get three days' rations, and then went to fetch three days of water for drinking, so that at the same time let Le Jin send 10,000 troops to Yanjin to assemble, and make a posture of crossing the river to attack. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
After Le Jin led the army to leave, Cao Cao took his two sons and generals to a dense forest between Baima and Guandu to rest, there is a small lake in this dense forest, which is a good place to hide, because it is necessary to give Yuan Shao time to react and deploy troops, so Cao Cao wants to let the army rest in this dense forest for two days.
According to Cao Chun, who is proficient in cavalry warfare, Yan Liang wants to protect Yuan Shao's army across the river, so it must be camped near the river, blocking the white horse in a big way, but every day two hundred fine horsemen will be released, in a unit, a group of ten people wandering around, as long as the enemy army is found, if the force is strong, immediately retreat, and then rely on the flexible advantage of the cavalry to harass the army, if the weakness is immediately attacked, in order to defeat, so to attack Yan Liang tiger and leopard cavalry must run all the way out of the dense forest, and defeat Yan Liang with lightning speed.
Cao Cao was deeply impressed by Cao Chun's suggestion, and at the same time, he also believed that it was impossible for Yan Liang's 5,000 cavalry to make a strong camp, and the impact of the tiger and leopard cavalry would inevitably break through him.
Cao Zhang and Chen Zhi were still assigned to the 400-strong army led by Cao Zhen, while Cao Pi and Xu Chu were in the 400-strong army led by Cao Xiu.
Cao Zhang was not used to camping outside, let alone not camping at all now, but falling asleep in the curtain, so he didn't feel sleepy at all, so he picked up his spear and walked into the forest to practice.
Speaking of which, Cao Zhang did not follow others to learn the experience of long weapons, he only followed Xiahoudun to learn the ring head knife, practiced the ring head knife and after a few battles Cao Zhang's biggest understanding is that the so-called martial arts still need to be learned on the battlefield, the use of spears, is nothing more than a small number of horizontal, stabbing, stabbing, and the use of explosive power, which is not much different from the ring head knife, the so-called one law through ten thousand laws is this truth, everything is based on strength and skill, as for the moves, it is just the end.
The greater the strength, the more delicate the weapon can be controlled, although Cao Zhang's spear is not as long as three meters like the halberd ridden by the tiger and leopard, but it is also 2.8 meters, which is much longer than his size, but now his strength is indeed amazing, at this time Cao Pi's spear is still a hardwood grip, but Cao Zhang's use is already a grip made of all-metal like the tiger and leopard ride.
This weapon is undoubtedly very heavy, at least not less than eighty catties, but the power is also huge, it is really rubbed to a point is broken tendons and bones, the spear is a little good, that is, his blade head is longer than the spear, the blade head of the spear is cone-shaped, half a foot long, can only be pierced directly, the usage is single, but the destructive power is strong, the spear head is one and a half feet long, not only has a sharp spearhead, but also a sharp blade, not only can be used for straight stabbing, but also can be chopped, but the blade head is flat, cut more will curl, not as durable as spears and long knives.
However, for the second generation of officials like Cao Zhang, who is not worried about weapons, the spear is the best choice, and if it is broken, it will be replaced, which is not a big deal, because the spear has the advantages of both spear and long knife, and Cao Ang also used a spear back then.
Since practicing the Five Fowl Opera, Cao Zhang's strength has indeed grown, he danced a spear like a tiger, and after a cup of tea, he collected the spear, his face was not red and he was not panting, if this made the generals see it, they must be shocked to close their mouths, after all, Cao Zhang is still an 11-year-old child.
After dancing for a while, he finally felt a little sleepy, thinking that he was going to kill Yan Liang's house, and he must take care of his spirits, thinking of this, Cao Zhang dragged the spear back to rest, and the next night, he still played with the spear for a while before going to sleep, because it didn't take much effort, he really couldn't sleep.
After the second night, under the leadership of Cao Cao and Cao Chun, the tiger and leopard rode out of the dense forest like a wolf, all the way to the white horse, because they had already walked half the way, so everyone galloped for more than an hour to the white horse.
Baima is just a small town, the city wall is no more than five meters high, or the result of repairing it once after the war with Yuan Shao, so Cao Cao and the generals ran to the hill three hundred steps away from the town to see the city wall, while the tiger and leopard rider was waiting under the hill.
Five miles away from the city wall, there is a simple camp, needless to say, there is Yan Liang's camp, obviously the tiger and leopard riding fast gallop has been discovered by the scouts sent by Yan Liang, but under the rapid attack of the tiger and leopard riding, Yan Liang has no choice to escape at all, and it is just a joke to defend according to the camp, because the proposed camp is weak under the long halberd of the tiger and leopard.
So at this time, Yan Liang rode out of the camp with five thousand fine horses, lined up in front of the camp, at this time you can see the five thousand fine horsemen led by Yan Liang all holding halberds, wearing bright light armor, and the black light armor ridden by the tiger and leopard is in stark contrast, at this time it is close to noon, the sun in late spring is a little hot, shining on Yan Liang's cavalry armor reflects a dazzling light, like a heavenly soldier and a heavenly general.
Yan Liang is indeed a fierce general, the formation law is rigorous, Yuan Shao's cavalry is indeed an elite soldier, and he is fierce, but Cao Cao has nothing to fear, only to hear him shout: "Zihe, Wen Lie, Zidan, take the department as the vanguard, and the rest are the Chinese army, kill!" ”
Cao Chun, Cao Xiu, and Cao Zhen immediately rushed out with their subordinates, Cao Pi and Xu Chu returned to Cao Xiu's team, and Cao Zhangchen returned to Cao Zhen's team, and the three four hundred people phalanx rushed towards Yan Liang's cavalry in an orderly manner.
When the two armies were still three miles apart, Cao Zhang saw clearly the general of the enemy army, this person was holding a long knife, wearing bright light armor, a fierce face, a halberd beard, and indeed a fierce look, I saw him wave the long knife in his hand, and five thousand knights rushed towards the tiger and leopard in unison.
When the two armies were still three hundred steps apart, Cao Zhang hung his spear on his horse and took a bow and pulled an arrow, and an arrow hit the knights around Yan Liang, and the knight fell in response to the arrow, you must know that these knights are wearing Mingguang armor, and their whole bodies are almost covered, even if they go back and forth in the rain of arrows, there will not be much loss, so the heavy cavalry does not carry bows and arrows, and the other party never expected that there are still people with such good archery skills, and they can still shoot at the target under the high-speed gallop.
With the reversal of a knight, several knights behind him were also tripped because they were blocked, and the cavalry behind them got out of the way from both sides in order to avoid the former, and in this way, there was a gap in Yan Liang's cavalry formation, and the two armies were only a hundred steps apart at this time.
Cao Zhang shot another arrow, and then shot down another person, then withdrew his bow and arrow and held the spear to poke at the enemy knight who had already arrived in front of him, the spear went straight into the opponent's neck, blood gushed out, and the opponent's halberd grazed Cao Zhang's side, and then a dazzling light stung Cao Zhang's eyes, the enemy knights in the second row had arrived in front of him, and the halberd was only a foot away from the door in front of him!
Then came the roar that came into the ears like a tidal wave, and the great war had begun.
