Chapter 919: Battle Tiger Prison (2)

"Huh?" Frowning and pondering, Cao Cao, who looked at the Gaoyang camp, suddenly remembered something.

"Oh?" Yuan Shao, who was arrogant, immediately turned his head and looked over, and asked softly, "Does Meng De know about this person?" ”

Cao Cao, who had an ordinary face and was short, stroked his beard, squinted his eyes slightly, and said with a smile, "If you are not mistaken." This person should be the Gao Yang who defeated Lu Bu, Gao Zihou! ”

"Oh?!" After hearing Cao Cao's words, the heroes and heroes around all showed surprised expressions. They all showed a sudden look.

In this era of advocating force, Gao Yang defeated Lu Bu, who was previously known as invincible in the world, and Gao Yang's prestige has already spread all over the world!

"Hahaha~~~" Yuan Shu, the heroic and gloomy general Yuan Shu, suddenly laughed out loud after watching Gao Yang's military camp for a while. After everyone turned their puzzled eyes to him, he said with a stinging voice, "This person has the name of martial arts, but he doesn't know the art of war at all. Leaving the customs to establish a large battalion, but not relying on Xiongguan in order to support, each other is a horn. Instead, they set up camp far away from Xiongguan. That Gao Yang is nothing but an ignorant Wufuer. After saying that, he continued to laugh loudly.

As soon as Yuan Shu's seemingly reasonable words came out, few of the surrounding heroes went along with him. This is almost the place where most of the top elites of the Han Empire are gathered. Which one doesn't have a vision for excellence?

Although Gao Yang didn't know why he violated the common sense of the art of war and set up camp far away from Xiongguan. But look at the well-laid ramparts and the criss-crossed trenches of antlers. It is absolutely impossible to be a martial artist who doesn't understand anything. They still have this vision.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that if you want to break through this well-guarded battalion, you must pay a great price. Although for a large number of coalition forces, these losses were nothing. However, this coalition army can be formed by the collection of princes from all walks of life. Who is willing to spend their own strength to make wedding clothes for others?

Sun Jian, who was originally the most fierce and brave, was already disheartened after being swept away by Yuan Shu, and at this moment he was looking at the heavily walled military camp in the distance with a cold face and did not say a word.

Except for Sun Jian, only Gongsun Zhan is a little ready to move. It's just that when he saw the deep trenches crisscrossing the Gaoyang military camp, he suddenly died down.

His soldiers and horses were mainly cavalry. Let his cavalry brave the rain of arrows with strong bows and crossbows to fill the trenches? He's not stupid!

Seeing that all the princes were silent, only his stupid brother was still giggling there. Yuan Shu frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice, "Do you have anyone who is willing to fight?" ”

Yuan Shao's words came out. The faces of the surrounding princes changed in an instant. One by one, they either looked up at the sky and prepared to predict the weather forecast, or looked down at the ground and counted the ants ready to specialize in biology. There are even those who pretend to be stupid and pick their nostrils with their eyes closed.

None of these people are fools.

That barracks didn't look like a nice place to get along with, no matter how you look at it. Look at the antlers and ditches outside, and if you don't fill in thousands of lives first, you can't even touch the gates of people's houses.

When the trench is filled in and the heavily guarded barracks are attacked, how many lives do you have to throw in front and back? Which of the soldiers and horses of the princes of all walks of life is not the capital of their own life? Who wants to just throw it in this place for nothing?

Even Sun Jian, who was known for his bravery, looked into the distance with his eyes intently at the moment and didn't say a word. That's not to mention the others.

Yuan Shao felt a wave of anger rise in his heart. He's the leader! But these princes have always disobeyed his orders, and now they send people to war, but no one responds. This made Yuan Shao feel very embarrassed.

The sharp gaze swept over the faces of the princes, squinting slightly, and they were about to forcibly roll out the name. Jibei Prime Minister Bao Xince stepped forward immediately. Salute and said, "Alliance leader, I think that this big camp is far away from the Tiger Prison Pass and cannot form a corner with the pass, so there is no need to worry at all. All you need to do is send a team of men and horses to guard it. When we take the Tiger Prison Pass, this place will be a desperate situation, either death or surrender, why do we need to attack at this time? ”

"What Yuncheng said is extremely true!" As soon as Bao Xin's words fell, a voice of harmony suddenly sounded around him. The Kwantung Coalition Army is not the soldiers and horses of the imperial court, it is all the private armies of princes from all walks of life. No one wants to take the initiative to consume their own strength.

"Definitely!" When everyone is in harmony. Cao Cao, who had been frowning and looking at the Gaoyang military camp, suddenly spoke out against it.

"Oh?" Yuan Shao raised his eyebrows and asked, "What is Meng De's opinion?" ”

Cao Cao stretched out his finger to the Gaoyang camp in the distance, his eyes fluctuated slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "The military camp here is backed by the big river. The camp tents are continuous and the scale is very large. There must be a lot of soldiers and horses hidden inside. I had been watching before I went down, and there were many soldiers and horses in the barracks, and there were a lot of cavalry. ”

"Is there anything wrong with that? The Xiliang soldiers were originally known for their cavalry. Yuan Shu, whose face was full of confusion, asked out loud.

There are smart people on the side who have come to their senses. Beiping Taishou Gongsun Zhan's eyes condensed slightly. He said in a deep voice, "What Meng De means is that if we attack the Tiger Prison Pass, the cavalry in this large camp will come out from behind. Will it inevitably pose a great threat to us? "Gongsun Chan is a cavalry general and knows this tactic very well.

"Exactly." Cao Cao nodded, and said in a deep voice, "How many soldiers and horses do you need to see so many cavalry?" And even if you can watch it, you may not be able to prevent it. This barracks is like a man's back for us. If we don't pull him out, we won't dare to attack the Tiger Prison Pass with all our might! ”

"So you have to fight?" Yuan Shao stroked his beard, half-squinted his eyes, and asked indifferently.

"I have to fight!" Cao Cao said categorically.

"Who wants to go?" Yuan Shao quieted the audience with a word. Speaking of which, it came back again.

Cao Cao, whose face was slightly flushed, could feel the countless eyes on him, and he suddenly gritted his teeth and prepared to give a military order. was interrupted by Jibei Prime Minister Bao Xin's words.

"Hahaha~~~" Bao Xin laughed out loud, and said to the princes who looked at him with a smile, "The military camp here is already a turtle in an urn, why rush?" It's a wonderful day, and it's time for us to drink. Come on, come on, drink go! After speaking, he gave Cao Cao a covert look.

"Exactly, exactly. Drink and go! The princes from all walks of life quickly reacted, and they all laughed in response, and the atmosphere was very warm.

Yuan Shao lowered his eyelids slightly, and his snort thickened slightly unnaturally. It took a moment before calm returned. When he opened his eyelids, a smile appeared on his handsome face, and he said indifferently, "Yes, just go drinking." After speaking, he turned his horse's head and walked towards the Chinese army. It seemed plain, but the hands that clutched the reins tightly betrayed his mood at the moment.

"Yuncheng, thank you so much today." Cao Cao pulled the war horse to Bao Xin's side and whispered.

Before, he was so angry that he almost gave the order to attack the heavily guarded military camp. Fortunately, Bao Xin interrupted in time, otherwise he would have gnawed on this hard bone. How could Cao Mengde do such a thankless thing?

"Meng De is a great talent, and he is a hero who calms down troubled times. How can you trip over such a place? Bao Xin said with a smile: "Most of the coalition forces are just a group of flies and dogs, all of whom want to preserve their strength. If there is a benefit, go up, and avoid it when you see a hard bone. These people can't make a big deal! ”

"Alas~~~" Cao Cao turned his head to look at the strict military camp in the distance with some regret, shook his head helplessly, and said in a low voice, "I still have to fight." ”

Bao Xin laughed weirdly, approached Cao Cao slightly, and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, Meng De, someone will inevitably fight tomorrow." ”

"Oh?"

"Be careful, handle it gently, this thing is dangerous." In the middle of the camp, Gao Yang, dressed in battle armor, was directing the soldiers to carefully carry down hundreds of tightly sealed clay pots placed on more than a dozen carriages and send them to a place surrounded by trenches and tents near the river.

A pungent smell filled the air, making the sergeants feel very uncomfortable. But it would be better to wait until the tent side. Although there is a strange smell there, it smells surprisingly good.

"This is the last batch." Zhang Liao, who had been following behind Gao Yang, had a completely relieved expression on his face. These hellfires are finally gone, and they have nothing to do with him after that.

Zhang Liao didn't understand why Gao Yang wanted him to go to Gaonu County to buy these stone paints at first, and told him to be careful on the road.

Although Zhang Liao was careful when he returned, he didn't care too much. It wasn't until the two sergeants who were escorting the car were engulfed in the flames accidentally ignited by the car, and they were unable to extinguish the fire either by splashing water or covering it with earth. Zhang Liao really understood Gao Yang's order. This is the eternal fire from the abyss of hell!

These stone paints concealed and followed the army to the Tiger Prison Pass, quietly hidden in the logistics materials of the Bingzhou army. And this is the real hole card of Gao Yang!

After establishing a large camp outside the gate, Gao Yang did not directly pour the original stone paint into the trench to prepare for arson. Instead, they chose to build a small, independent workshop by the river, and deep trenches were dug around the workshop to separate the whole workshop from the camp. Only a few paths were left for people to enter and exit.

There is no way, Gao Yang is preparing to use the distillation method to extract gasoline in this era when all facilities are extremely rudimentary!

This is a big killer on the battlefield, and no one can afford to mix some white phosphorus. If you burn on a large scale, no matter how much you struggle, you will not be able to escape the fate of being burned alive!

However, there is a lack of sophisticated tools in this era, especially sealing systems. In the absence of rubber, Gao Yang had to let those skilled craftsmen mix the boiled beef tendon with fish glue to seal it. It's better than nothing.

As for security, a few miles away is the battalion of hundreds of thousands of Kwantung Coalition troops, who else to talk about security at this time?

Gao Yang believed that with these terrifying flames, he would be able to sustain him until Dong Zhuo's arrival. Before that, in order to protect the strength he had accumulated with great difficulty, he would never show mercy to anyone! (To be continued......)
