Chapter 322: Guandu (12)
But fortunately, with Sun Ce so stirring up, Du Chen's worries can be reduced by at least half, although Sun Ce shouted the slogan of a surprise attack on Xuchang, but Liu Biao's side is obviously not mediocre, naturally someone can see Sun Ce's intentions clearly, so with this factor, Liu Biao will definitely be restrained by Sun Ce a lot.
"By the way, what is the situation of Yuan Jun now." Du Chen suddenly asked, It's been this hour, Yuan Jun must be very stable,
"Yuan Shao has obviously learned from yesterday's defeat, and now he is stepping up the construction of camp tents, and I think that in the short term, Yuan's army will not launch an offensive." Cao Cao said in a deep voice, this is definitely good news for Cao Jun, after all, Cao Jun can take advantage of this time to recuperate.
Cao Jun fought repeatedly, and the soldiers were obviously tired, so it was just this time to let the soldiers rest and rest, so that they could play their best in the next battle.
Moreover, Cao Jun was burned down a granary, although a lot of it was rescued after the fire, but this still had a certain impact on Cao Jun, so during this time, Cao Jun had to try his best to solve this problem.
These days have been quite leisurely for Du Chen, the Yuan army is in full swing to build camp tents, they are in full swing, obviously there are plans to stay in Guandu, and it is precisely for this reason that Yuan Jun has no time to send troops to attack Cao Jun.
And Cao Jun obviously couldn't be idle, and sent people to attack and harass Yuan Jun several times, but the effect was obviously not big, Yuan Jun's defense was quite tight, as long as Cao Jun approached, a large range of arrow rain fell, so Du Chen naturally canceled this action.
Yuan Jun is willing to build a camp, let him build it with peace of mind, after all, Yuan Shao has been scared by Cao Jun, and during this time, he will not lead his troops to attack.
The officers and men of the Yuan army obviously enjoyed the dullness of these few days, compared with the battles of the previous days. Building a camp is obviously very easy, and Yuan Shao is also happy, because Yuan Shao has given full authority to Lu Yi for the construction of the camp, and with him, it does save Yuan Shao a lot of trouble.
However, it is precisely because of this that Koji Yi's pampered mentality has grown more and more, and now in the entire Yuan army, except for Yuan Shao, it is his Koji Yi's highest status.
Although the people around Yuan Shao were very dissatisfied with Lu Yi, but Lu Yi didn't care, in his opinion, as long as his skills were strong, he could command the soldiers to fight. To be able to get the war, even if a few villains said bad things about themselves around Yuan Shao, he wouldn't care at all.
On the day of the completion of the Yuan army's camp tent, Cao Cao and Du Chen had carefully studied the Yuan army's camp tent, and the two found that the Yuan army camp was built according to the situation, and the construction was quite fine.
At this time, Du Chen felt that this Koji Yi was really a rare general. Not only is he well-trained in the army, but he also has a good way of doing things, such a person is obviously more difficult to deal with than Yan Liangwen and Chou combined, after all, Yan Liangwen and Chou are just a husband, and Lu Yi is a person who is an all-round person in civil and military affairs.
The threat of such a person is really great. But Du Chen obviously has no way to deal with this person, after all, this person's credit is very great, even if Du Chen uses conspiracy, but Yuan Shao must believe it. However, now that Koji Yi has won Yuan Shao's trust, what is the way to deal with Koji Yi.
Du Chen shook his head, Cao Jun has countless generals, is it not enough to defeat one Koji Yi, this, Du Chen categorically will not believe it, these two defeats are unintentional mistakes, unexpected moves, as long as he deals with it carefully, he doesn't believe that Koji Yi can turn over any storms.
With confidence, Du Chen's expression was obviously a lot better, since he knew that Yuan Shao had such a trustworthy and strategic general by his side, Du Chen naturally wanted to raise 100% of his energy to deal with it.
The next battle was particularly important to Cao Jun, Cao Jun categorically could not have any more problems, Cao Jun was burned by Yuan Jun grain and grass, which obviously had a great impact on Cao Jun's morale, so everything must be done carefully.
Of course, in addition to this matter, there is another particularly important thing that should be considered, and that is the matter of the Black Nest, although there is no guarantee that the Black Nest will not be rehearsed as it was in history, but this is obviously very important.
It is almost impossible to defeat Yuan Jun head-on, not to mention whether Cao Jun has such strength, even if there is, Yuan Shao will never give Cao Jun this chance, after all, after several battles, Yuan Shao has been frightened by Cao Jun, and, most importantly, conquering a camp, thinking about it is a headache,
Du Chen's secret agents have already been sent out, and there are more than one or two, but now no one has come to reply, which is also something that makes Du Chen feel quite distressed, this era is too slow to deliver news, so Du Chen has no way.
Du Chen had just clarified his thoughts here, and Cao Cao sent someone to invite him to discuss the matter, Du Chen shook his head helplessly, he just felt idle for a few days, but Cao Cao suddenly asked himself to go to the meeting, it was obviously something else.
Obviously, when Du Chen came to Cao Cao's tent, Cao Cao was sitting on the main seat with a sad face, seeing Cao Cao's expression, Du Chen was obviously a little puzzled, but he also realized that if Cao Cao could put on such an expression, it would prove that this matter was indeed a bit tricky.
After Du Chen entered the camp, everyone focused on him, obviously, since Du Chen is a think tank, it is obvious that the solution is pressed on Du Chen's body, if Du Chen can't solve it, then there is really nothing to be done from now on,
"Something happened." Seeing the solemn looks on everyone's faces, Du Chen hurriedly asked, he didn't hear any shouts of killing, it was definitely not Yuan Jun who attacked rashly, since this was the case, what happened
Du Chen was very puzzled, but at this time Cao Cao suddenly said: "Si Lang hasn't paid much in the past few days, obviously I don't know what happened, you can come and take a look." ”
Du Chen nodded, and then accompanied by Cao Cao and a group of generals, he went out of Cao Cao's camp tent, came out of the camp tent, and everyone went straight to the camp gate.
Du Chen thought to himself in his heart, for the arrow tower, the one built by Yuan Jun is indeed very shocking, but the shock is shock, Yuan Jun's arrow tower is obviously extremely effective, otherwise Cao Cao and Cao Jun would not have shown such an expression.
However, this thing is not difficult for Du Chen, because Du Chen knows very well how to restrain Yuan Jun's strategy, as long as the catapult is built, Yuan Jun's arrow tower is obviously an ornament.
After Cao Cao saw Du Chen's expression, he couldn't help but feel relieved, obviously, Du Chen was just stunned for a moment, but he didn't have a worried look, it was obvious that Du Chen must have a way to deal with Yuan Shao.
"Is there a way for Silang to deal with this situation?" Cao Cao asked loudly, in Cao Cao's opinion, there should be no problem with this matter, because Du Chen did not have the slightest strange expression, which proved that he already had a solution in his heart.
Du Chen nodded slightly, "Yuan Shao occupies the high ground and wants to suppress our army with this, the idea is good, but it is still not unbreakable." ”
Cao Cao obviously liked to hear Du Chen say this, but he was still very emotional, he had a headache for this matter, but he didn't think of a solution, and Si Lang just glanced at it, and then thought of how to deal with it, which is really not good.
"In that case, how do you think you should deal with this?" Cao Cao hurriedly asked, Yuan Jun's arrow tower has been pressed by Cao Jun's head, it is difficult for Cao Jun to raise his head, if he doesn't want to solve it, it will have a great impact on morale.
He didn't even dare to come out of the camp tent when he was suppressed, and God knows how Yuan Jun would laugh at Cao Jun, so the sooner he solved Yuan Jun's arrow tower, the more beneficial it would be for Cao Jun.
However, Du Chen shook his head slightly, "This matter is not in a hurry, because there is nothing that Chen wants here." "Although Du Chen knew that the catapult could restrain Yuan Jun, it was obvious that there was no catapult now.
Cao Cao was slightly puzzled, it was obviously difficult for him to think of what could be used to suppress Yuan Jun's arrow tower, he looked at Du Chen, and then hurriedly said: "Silang has nothing to say, why sell Guanzi." ”
Du Chen smiled, and then said, "This thing that Chen said is called a catapult. ”
"Catapult." Cao Cao muttered, although he didn't know what this catapult was, but according to the name, it could be seen that Si Lang used the catapult to throw stones, but could just throwing stones suppress Yuan Jun?
Looking at Du Chen with eyes full of doubts, Cao Cao was obviously very anxious at this time, and he desperately hoped that Du Chen would give him a reasonable explanation so that he would not be so tormented anymore.
Du Chen smiled and shook his head, he glanced at Cao Cao, and then said: "Go back to the camp first, tell the soldiers, and endure him for a few days." After speaking, Du Chen turned around and left, and Cao Cao could only follow helplessly.
Returning to the camp, Du Chen finally told Cao Cao the principle of the catapult, Cao Cao's eyes lit up when he heard this, and it was obvious that he knew very well how great the impact of the catapult on the battlefield would be if it appeared on the battlefield.
However, what Du Chen said was just the tip of the iceberg, the catapult was a rather sharp siege equipment, as long as the stone was sufficient, there was obviously no problem with the catapult to break through the walls of a city.
Moreover, throwing a boulder the size of a millstone into the enemy camp is such a shocking picture, which can greatly damage the morale of the enemy army.
You know, in the game, the army that is smashed by a catapult will reduce morale, so this is definitely a siege weapon. (To be continued......)
