Yuan Xu and Guo Jia chatted freely.

From the world's major events to the streets and alleys, the two talked very happily.

The officers and men on both sides could not see that they were the commanders of the two armies who were about to go into battle, but rather like two old friends who had not seen each other for many years, talking about things that had nothing to do with the war.

When the wine jar bottomed out, Yuan Xu got up and said: "The wine has been drunk, wait for Guo Gong to come and take the head!" ”

"Childe is precious!" Guo Jia arched his hand and said: "If you get a son, you will definitely not keep your hand!" ”

"Guo Gong must also be careful!" Yuan Xu said: "If you get Guo Gong, you will definitely ask for it immediately!" ”

The two laughed and then got on their horses and returned to their respective formations.

Returning to the Yuan army's array, Yuan Xu ordered: "Pass the order, and the two wings will advance first!" ”

Guo Jia returned to the Cao army and ordered the soldiers: "Gather the whole army and break through the enemy's left flank!" ”

The soldiers on both sides received the order and moved forward.

The heavy infantry, who walked in the front, held a large shield and a long lance, and hid their bodies behind the shield.

The archers follow behind, place the arrows on the strings, and wait for the order to give them to shoot their feathered arrows.

The cavalry of both sides followed the formation, ready to launch a surprise attack on the enemy at any time.

The two armies are getting closer and closer, and Yuan Xu and Guo Jia are standing in their respective armies.

Both of them looked very solemn.

The heavy infantry, which was at the forefront, was only a few dozen paces away from the enemy and stopped.

The soldiers on both sides stood still and stepped out of the smoke and dust!

"Array!" With a shout, the soldiers put their big shields on the ground one after another, straightening their chests and looking at the enemy soldiers who were close at hand.

The archer stretches out his bow and holds his arrow, and the arrow is pointed diagonally into the air.

Cao's cavalry was ready to move, and only waited for the order to attack the left flank of Yuan's army.

The horn is long. With the melodious sound of horns, the cavalry of the Cao army rode out of the battle and galloped towards the left flank of the Yuan army.

"Shoot the arrows!" The general burst into applause. The Yuan archers let go of their fingers that were tightening the bowstring.

There were bursts of bowstrings, and arrows flew overwhelmingly towards the charging Cao army.

The horses neighed and dusty. Cao Jun, who was shot by an arrow, rolled and fell out.

More Cao cavalry held shields and blocked the feathered arrows flying towards them, killing the left flank of Yuan's army.

The Yuan army on the left flank was led by Liu Pi, and when he saw the cavalry of Cao's army rushing forward, Liu Pi immediately ordered the forward defense.

The Yuan army at the front tilted their shields back.

Squatting under the shield, they carried the large shield with their backbones, forming a slope of forty-five degrees.

Yuan Jun in the back put his shield on the ground, and the long lance poked out through the gap between the shields, staring nervously at the Cao cavalry that was getting closer and closer.

Cao's army launched an attack on the left flank. It was not surprising to Yuan Xu.

The cavalry of the Yuan army behind the array immediately detoured towards the left flank, and the cavalry behind the left flank was holding their blades tightly, only waiting for the enemy to rush to the ground and then take advantage of the situation to kill.

The galloping cavalry of the Cao army crashed into the shield formation on the left flank of the Yuan army.

The soldiers of the Yuan army, who were leaning on the big shield and carrying the shield on their bodies, gritted their teeth and supported their horses to step over their shields.

A piece of Yuan army was trampled to the ground by the war horse, and the Yuan army that supported it suddenly got up at the moment when Cao Jun rushed over, and poked the long lance into the belly of the enemy's horse.

The cavalry of the Cao army, which had rushed into the formation, was immediately confronted by a neat formation, pointing their long lances at their shield formation.

The cavalry that rushed through the front row of shield formations unloaded a lot, and the Yuan army behind saw them coming, and poked out their long lances one after another.

With the neighing of the war horse. One by one, Cao Jun and his men and horses fell.

At the same time, the heavy infantry behind Cao's formation launched a shout and pounced on Yuan's army.

Cao Jun moved first, and Yuan Xu immediately ordered the whole army to assault!

Attracting the enemy with the left flank, Yuan's army went straight to Cao's central army.

The first full-scale battle between the two sides since the confrontation began in the small wilderness.

The battle lasted from noon to evening.

Yuan Xu and Guo Jia each allocated troops and horses to break through and deploy defenses.

Fight all day. The Yuan army failed to break through the central army of the Cao army, and the Cao army did not even break through the left flank of the Yuan army!

On the battlefield, there are broken shields everywhere. Weapons are discarded in a messy manner.

A broken battle flag of the Cao army hunted and flew in the wind.

The place where the corpses lay was dotted with unextinguished flames.

The two Cao armies and the Yuan armies, each with more than 100 people. Walking on the battlefield full of corpses and searching.

They passed each other and did not attack each other.

Soldiers on both sides who were seriously wounded but did not die. They were taken out of the pile of dead and carried back to the barracks.

When the wounded soldiers of the other side are found, whether it is Cao Jun or Yuan Jun, they will call for the enemy troops in the search.

The afterglow of the sunset, the battlefield filled with a strong bloody atmosphere is soaked in heavy blood.

Yuan Jun barracks.

Yuan Xu sat in the tent.

The captain held a piece of paper and was thinking about the loss of Yuan's army in the battle.

In the first battle, the left flank of Yuan's army suffered the most losses.

Most of the 3,000 soldiers were wounded, and more than 500 were killed.

The number of enemy soldiers killed was equal to the damage of Yuan's army, and neither Yuan Xu nor Guo Jia had any benefits in this battle.

"This battle boy is properly deployed, if he kills a few more formations of Cao's army, he will definitely be able to break it!" Meng Da said: "If it weren't for the enemy's main general but Guo Jia, Gongzi would have made a contribution in the first battle!" ”

"The enemy commander is Guo Jia, and it is not a reason for nothing to be accomplished." Yuan Xu said: "Pass the order, and the army will retreat and camp!" ”

"Retreat?" Liu Pi was stunned and asked: "Our army is not defeated, why did Gongzi order to retreat?" ”

"The terrain here is flat, and although there are hills, we can't rely on them." Yuan Xu said: "Cao Cao's army fought so hard before it arrived. What if Cao Cao sends reinforcements, and I don't have strong reinforcements after waiting? ”

"Our army retreats, does Childe have a backhand?" Cui Yan asked.

Ordering the soldiers to take the map, Yuan Xu spread it out on the table, pointed to the map and said, "You wait to come forward." ”

The crowd stepped forward and looked at where he was pointing.

"From now on, you can go east to Puyang." Yuan Xu said: "Puyang's terrain is flat, but fortunately, there are many rivers. The Yellow River, the Wei River, the Jindi River, and the Maji River crisscross it. Our army is arrayed here to defend against the enemy, and Cao's army will not dare to provoke easily. ”

"Childe doesn't want to defeat Guo Jia?" Jiang Qi asked.

"It's not easy to defeat Guo Jia. Our army is deployed here, and if the enemy army attacks in a big way, it will be difficult to stop. It's just that before leaving, I have to leave some thoughts for Guo Jia. ”

Everyone looked at Yuan Xu and said nothing.

"The hoarding of straw and stones in the camp can come in handy. Our army left at night, and Guo Jia must lead the army into the camp. Dozens of archers were left. Once Cao's army entered the empty camp, they were ordered to launch rockets. Straw is no match for a camp tent, and once the entire barracks is burned, it will be in flames. ”

"What's the use of the Stone Pie?" Jiang Qi asked.

"Intercept Cao's retreat." Yuan Xu said: "The stones are stacked on top of the walled gate, and the flames will fall when the wooden beams are broken. The fire burns, and the stones are far hotter than the earth. Once Cao Jun entered the barracks, it was not so easy to get out! ”

"Pass the order, and the army will evacuate early tomorrow morning and rush to Puyang!" Yuan Xu ordered.

"Obey the orders of the son!" The crowd got up and answered. (To be continued.) )
