Chapter 1002: Chen Liu

If it is said that the person who appreciates Gao Yang the most in this era is Huang Zhong, and the person who makes Gao Yang want to take it under his command the most is Zhao Yun. Where to chase it, go quickly, and the person who Gao Yang admires the most is Cao Cao.

was not from a high background, and was even ridiculed by Yuan Shao as a family of eunuchs. There is no Yuan Shao's majestic figure and handsome appearance. There is no Yuan Shao's fourth and third dukes, and everyone expects it. But with his own efforts and talent, he went from a Jibei minister Bao Xin to the world's strongest Cao Cheng who Yuan Shao couldn't do.

How can such a character, such an inspirational story with a small and broad breadth, not be admired?

Although Cao Cao's success has some luck in it. There were several major battles before Chibi. However, not to mention luck is also part of strength. Let's just say that if you don't have the ability, you won't be able to catch it even if it's lucky.

If Gao Yang had crossed over to come here without any support, Cao Cao would have been his first choice. Compared with Liu Bei, who ran around in the early stage, he couldn't even keep his wife and brothers. The Sun family who co-ruled with the family gate valve. Only Cao Cao is the most reassuring.

As for the kind of thing that you pull the flag to occupy the mountain, who will take the initiative to follow you in this era when you don't even have a formal identity?

Cao Cao, such an eloquent and strategic figure, is Gao Yang's next target.

More than 20,000 cavalry set out from the vicinity of Yecheng, crossed the river under the personal leadership of Gao Yang, and joined the more than 10,000 defenders stationed there near Baima. After a short rest, he ran all the way south non-stop. Gao Yang's target is Chen Liu, Cao Cao's hometown.

Gao Yang didn't think about Cao Cao's life. As long as this kind of talent can be subdued, it is the most useful right-hand man. Coupled with the retainers under Cao Cao's command, which had begun to take shape, subduing the forced landing was Gao Yang's main purpose. After all, it is impossible to govern the world in the future by relying on cyborg warriors.

"Big brother." Xiahou, whose face was full of majesty, frowned tightly, and asked eagerly, "Then Gaoyang's army is almost here, what should we do?" ”

This is the official residence of Cao Cao in Chen Liucheng. At this moment, all the main generals and strategists under his command, including Liu Bei and Guan Yu, who were still Hakqing, gathered together to discuss how to deal with the Gaoyang army that came directly to Chen.

At this time, Cao Cao was far from having the huge power of Prime Minister Cao in the future. He only has such a city as Chen Liu, and he has no more than 10,000 soldiers under his command. It will not be more than a hundred. Even Cao Cao himself didn't understand why Gao Yang didn't want to pacify Hebei after defeating Yuan Shao, but instead personally led the main force to crusade against him?

"Why should Cao Gong worry? Since Gao Yang dared to personally lead his troops to leave Yecheng and lone his army to come to Chenliu, he was asking for his own death. As long as Cao Gongguang posts a heroic post, he calls on the heroes of the world to come to the rescue. The power of the world's heroes will surely be able to destroy this fang. Liu Bei, who was crying, saw Cao Cao's doubts and hurriedly spoke out to comfort him.

Because the righteous brother Zhang Fei died in the hands of Gao Yang, in this era of valuing love and righteousness, there is only hatred left between Liu Bei and Gao Yang, and there is absolutely no possibility of reconciliation.

If Liu Bei chooses to surrender to Gaoyang. Let's not talk about whether Gao Yang will accept it, just the spit stars of the whole world can drown Liu Bei alive. Brotherhood is like brotherhood, it is definitely not just a casual talk, it is to be held responsible.

Cao Cao's eyes froze, and he looked at Liu Bei, who looked respectful, but did not speak. He naturally knew what Liu Bei was agitating for. But he didn't mean to refute it.

The reason is very simple, at this time, the world is in chaos, the heroes are competing for each other, and Cao Cao, who has great talent, also has corresponding ambitions, and he doesn't want to just quit!

After making up his mind, Cao Cao soon sent a large number of envoys to find reinforcements in all directions. Explain to the princes of all walks of life the degree of strong harm in Gaoyang. said that if everyone doesn't hurry up and join forces to deal with him now, then they can only be broken by each one in the future!

Unlike Yuan Shao, who had completely lost his credibility, Cao Cao's sincere letters were still responded to by many princes.

Chen Liu's surrounding Jibei Prime Minister Bao Xin, Yanzhou Thorn Shi Liu Dai and others. Tao Qian of Xuzhou, Kong Rong of Beihai and others all responded positively and sent soldiers and horses to support.

Even Liu Miao and others, who were far away in Yangzhou, sent people to send a large amount of grain and straw materials. These people also understood that things were indeed the same as Cao Cao said, and if they continued like this, all of them could only be broken by Gao Yang one by one. As long as there are still some ideas in their hearts, they will not follow the example of Qi Guo, and the whole country will surrender without a single arrow.

What's more, this time Gao Yang went deep alone, and there were only 30,000 people around him. If you can break Gao Yang under Chen Liucheng, you can kill or capture Gao Yang. That's definitely a big deal.

It's just that the envoys sent by Cao Cao to other directions have no effect.

The envoy who went to Sili Jingzhou to persuade Xun Yu and Xun Yu to rebel against Gaoyang was arrested on the spot and was soon beheaded for public display. The envoys sent to Hanoi and Bingzhou are also gone, and no one knows what kind of bad luck happened to them. As for going to the brothers of the Yuan family in Hebei. Even the envoy of Gongsun Zhan in Youzhou, which is even more distant, is a complete formality. By the time they got the news, it was estimated that the battle under Chen Liucheng had already been over.

In fact, neither Cao Cao nor the princes of all walks of life understood how strong Gao Yang's strength had become. They only knew that Gao Yang was very strong, and even defeated the extremely powerful Yuan Shao. However, in this era of extreme scarcity of information exchange, if you don't have personal experience. No one knows.

In six days, Gao Yang only took six days to rush all the way from Yecheng to Chen Liucheng.

There were nearly 20,000 cavalry under his command, and nearly 10,000 foot soldiers were brought on the white horse. Originally, this kind of marching army column plus logistical baggage, it would take at least half a month to walk on the altars and jars.

However, when Gao Yang used the storage space as a logistics base in a hurry. It took only six days to get to the battlefield. Their speed was even faster than that of Bao Xin, Liu Dai and others who were near Chen Liu.

If it weren't for the tens of thousands of foot soldiers in the army who slowed down the speed, and the simple cavalry troops, Gao Yang would have even been enough for him to come to Chen Liucheng in just two or three days.

Later generations of Mongolian cavalry have always been praised and talked about how strong they were. In fact, the biggest advantage of the Mongol cavalry was that they had a huge advantage in logistics and supply. Coupled with strong mobility and long-range cavalry, this led to the Mongol cavalry that dominated the world. If you really put the soldiers and horses face to face, the strength of the Mongolian cavalry is actually not to the extent of defying the sky.

......

"This, this, this is really a ghostly army!" On the city wall, Cao Cao, who was pale, trembled slightly, and looked at the Shura Hell in the distance outside the city with an expression of disbelief.

Yesterday afternoon, the army of Jibei Prime Minister Bao Xin, who was closest to Chen Liu, arrived here early.

After entering the city to discuss the battle plan with Cao Cao, and pulling his staff and generals to get drunk, Bao Xin returned to the military camp outside the city to prepare to settle the soldiers and horses.

However, no one thought that when the sky gradually brightened the next day, the soldiers and horses everywhere were busy fetching water and washing, and making fires and cooking. The sleepy-eyed sergeants of Bao Xinjun suddenly realized that the earth suddenly began to tremble slightly.

At first, some people thought that the earth dragon had turned over. Who would have thought that it was actually the Gaoyang cavalry waving countless high-character flags rushing over!

When the sky was overwhelming, like a raging tide, the huge cavalry group bathed in the golden light of the rising sun, brandished the snow swords, shouted and roared to the fullest. Outside the city, Bao Xin's soldiers and horses were all dumbfounded.

Bao Xin's soldiers, who were not trained well on weekdays and had never seen much blood on the battlefield, quickly collapsed under the boundless power of the cavalry cluster. Everyone was busy running in all directions, and no one thought to organize resistance. They couldn't resist either.

Nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses under Bao Xin's command scattered and fled, most of them trying to hide in Chenliu City, which was fortified by strong walls. Unfortunately, Cao Hong, the city gate official, ordered the city gate to be closed as soon as he discovered the traces of the Gaoyang cavalry.

Pursuit, cover-up.

One of the cavalry's favorite combat routines. They met almost no decent resistance, and they were able to completely defeat Bao Xin's troops very easily. Since Bao Xin and below, nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses were defeated in a battle, and they either died or surrendered.

Cao Cao, who had a hangover, quickly rushed to the city after receiving the news, and witnessed the powerful Gaoyang cavalry crushing Bao Xin's troops like chopping melons and vegetables. There were even many cavalry who approached Chen Liu and hit the defenders on the city wall with a rain of sharp arrows. In the end, it was the generals who personally took action to force those Gaoyang cavalry to retreat.

Looking at the Gaoyang cavalry, who had already begun to clean up the battlefield, Cao Cao, who was pale, slowly closed his eyes. After a moment of silence, he turned and walked down the wall.

You don't have to think about it to know that in the face of such a powerful army and horses that seem to fall from the sky, the reinforcements that come to Chen Liu from all over will inevitably be broken one by one. After losing reinforcements, how long can Chen Liucheng hold up in front of these tiger and wolf divisions under Gao Yang?

At this moment, Cao Cao was silent. At this moment, Chen Liucheng was silent.

Outside the city, the Gaoyang army was still wantonly chasing and killing the defeated soldiers who captured Bao Xin. Cao Cao saw with his own eyes that Bao Xin's handsome flag was cut off and fell to the ground diagonally.

In the distance, the sound of horses' hooves was like thunder, and a huge 'high' handsome flag slowly approached under the embrace of countless armored cavalry.

"That's Gao Yang?" Cao Cao's breathing suddenly became rapid. He is a veteran who has been in Luoyang for many years. Naturally, he knew how terrifying the thousands of armored cavalry next to Gao Yang's Shuai Qi were!

When the terrain is suitable, such a cavalry unit is enough to defeat any enemy. Be any enemy!

Turning to look at the ugly faces of his subordinate generals, and then at the sergeants with panicked expressions. Cao Cao sighed silently in his heart. "God won't treat me!" (To be continued.) )
