Chapter 571: Attack with all your might
Guandu is to hold the throat of Xuchang, once Guandu is captured, Xuchang will leak under the foot of Yuan Jun's horses, which is also the main reason why Yuan Shao insisted on attacking Guandu, and Cao Cao spent up to half a year here.
Today, time has passed, and Yuan Shang once again gathered the main force of Hebei to attack the land of Guandu.
Today, Hebei's strength has shown a qualitative leap compared to that year, the reason why Yuan Shao was able to gather so many troops was because of the result of the reckless army, in fact, the rear of Hebei was not stable, but after nearly ten years of development, the land of Hebei, to have people, to have food, to have money, to have talents, almost showing a comprehensive crushing attack towards Guandu.
For this fierce battle in Guandu, Hebei's elite poured out, just the special elite troops used, there were more than ten kinds, the main force of 300,000 was divided into dozens of waves, and all the horses and carriages that could be used were used, and they were murderous, and went straight to Guandu.
Yuan Shang arranged for Zhang Liao and Sima Yi to select elite protection Diao Chan to secretly go to Xuchang to find a way to persuade Madame Bian to change the pattern, while he himself commanded the army, and went straight to Guandu.
The battle of Guandu is said to be the final battle, but it is by no means a battle that can be won or lost, after all, the remaining final strength of the Cao clan has also been gathered here, and the earth city has been cast, and there are countless fence sub-camps around it, and the strength should not be underestimated.
After Yuan Shang sent scouts to probe Cao Jun's form, he couldn't help but sneer and immediately made a decision.
Although Cao's earthen city has defensive power, it is not comparable to a normal giant city after all, but the barracks and fences outside the city are quite eye-catching, and they need to be removed at one time.
So, Yuan Shang began to act.
At the end of the hour, the sky was cloudy. The yin aura was thick, and a murderous aura rose out of thin air.
In a gate camp in the northeast corner of Guandu Tucheng, in the distance, a group of soldiers and horses were slowly moving towards that side.
One of the fierce generals at the head was Ma Chao, he looked carefully at the fence camp in the distance, and then turned his head to Yuan Shang behind him and said: "Lord, the fence camp in front of you has not erected a big flag, it seems that there should be no too powerful people in it." ”
Yuan Shang smiled when he heard this, picked up a feather fan and shook it. Said: "Normal, Cao Zhi has set up dozens of fence camps around Tucheng, although it is dense, it is impossible to have fierce generals everywhere, and he does not have so many capable people in his hands." ”
Ma Chao sighed regretfully. "Alas, it's a pity. Ben was counting on killing a few of his generals! ”
Yuan Shang shook his head. Said: "Since Zhao Yun defended one side alone, you have always been the number one general by my side, and there are countless fierce generals who have died in your hands, aren't you enough?" Sometimes, the credit for the appropriate needs to be pushed outward. ”
When Ma Chao heard this, he nodded as if he didn't understand.
Yuan Shang pointed to the fence camp. Said: "This kind of camp is not difficult for you, go ahead, I will press you here." ”
"Okay!" Ma Chao smiled when he heard this. "Give me half an hour!" With that, he led the soldiers to the barracks.
At the mouth of the fence camp, there was a Cao sergeant who erected a horse to resist the horse, patrolled the four states, suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves wrinkled in the distance, and saw Ma Chao leading a team of cavalry rushing suddenly, and suddenly said: "Who ......?"
"The one who wants your life!" Before he could finish asking, he saw that Ma Chao had already raised a gun, stabbed it down, and then led a group of cavalry to rush into the camp at high speed.
Suddenly, there was a pot of porridge in the fence camp.
Some of the generals who led Cao's army rushed out, shouting as they went: "What's going on, what's going on?" ”
Before he finished shouting, he saw the elite cavalry led by Ma Chao appear beside him, and raised his hand to shoot it, and the face of the general of the Yuan army turned the color of pig liver, and he fell to the ground and pointed at Ma Chao, who was running farther and farther, and blood foamed directly in his mouth.
"Someone robbed the village, robbed the village!"
Before many of Cao's soldiers could figure out what was going on, they were rushed forward by Ma Chao's soldiers and horses, and they were slashed and stabbed at the unsuspecting ones.
With the shouting, Ma Chao's cavalry team set off a bloody storm in this fence camp.
This is a competition of disparity in strength, after all, this is only the corner of Cao Jun's many fences, there is no fierce general stationed, and Ma Chao, there is no doubt that he is currently the most brave and good general under Yuan Shang.
At the same time, dozens of other fence villages of the Cao army also attacked at the same time, all of which were led by the generals of Hebei, and overnight, dozens of Cao army fence villages were attacked at the same time.
Ma Chao acted quickly, and he didn't bother to chase and kill the weak excessively, he just knocked down this place, and after achieving his goal, he returned to Yuan Shang's side.
"Lord, the fence camp has been defeated, is it burning?"
Yuan Shang nodded and said, "Burn!" ”
With that, he turned away and didn't look at the fence.
After a while, I saw that the Cao army's fence emitted billowing smoke......
Not long after, in all directions of Guandu Tucheng, the Cao Jun Zhai in many other places also began to breathe and burst into flames, emitting billowing smoke......
Ma Chao quickly followed Yuan Shang's horses, turned his head to look at the fence behind him, smiled slightly, and said: "Lord, he has lost dozens of fences in an hour, tonight, presumably Cao Zhi is not able to sleep well." ”
Yuan Shang said quietly when he heard this: "Now in this Guandu battlefield, it is the strongest elite that I have gathered and cultivated in Hebei over the years, and I must take the lead and let Cao Zhi know that in the face of this force, there is a real gap between him and me." ”
Ma Chao's ignition of the fence is just the tip of the iceberg, as Yuan Shang said, this night, the Yuan army dispatched dozens of top generals at the same time, divided into several waves, with the momentum of thunder, the entire Guandu Tucheng next to the fence all captured and destroyed!
The main force of the Yuan army was originally under the leadership of Yuan Xi, and was still able to occupy the initiative in the Zhongzhou battlefield, and now it has been led by Yuan Shang, under his command, the strength has reached its peak, the first night of the battle of Guandu, the Yuan army came suddenly, unexpectedly, attacked it unprepared, and the momentum was like a bamboo, and destroyed Cao Zhi's dozens of carefully laid out fences around Guandu with absolute superiority, causing huge losses to Cao Jun.
Although he knew that the commander of the Yuan army had changed from Yuan Xi to Yuan Shang, such a fierce attack by Leng Buding coupled with such a careful deployment. The generals of the Cao army, who had been guarding Zhongzhou and confronting the main force of the Yuan army, were bold and cold.
Sure enough, no matter how strong Hebei's strength is, the most terrifying thing is Yuan Shang himself, the first battle to take over the main army, he fought so vigorously that Yuan Xi couldn't compare with him at all.
Cao Zhi thought that Yuan Shang would definitely take action after taking over the main army in Hebei, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly and so stormy.
Of course, not to mention that he didn't expect it, even Xiahoudun and Cao Ren and other old people didn't expect it.
this night. For Yuan and Cao, it is destined to be a sleepless night.
At this time, Zhang Liao and Sima Yi protected Diao Chan and rushed to Xuchang.
Although it was a time of war, Xuchang City did not adopt a lockdown and curfew. Because as far as Xun Yu is concerned, after all, once the war ahead is lost. No matter how hard Xuchang City tries, he can't protect it. If there is no result in the war ahead, it is like facing a great enemy, but it is easy to cause panic and the gains outweigh the losses.
That's it. If you want to infiltrate Xuchang City, it is easier, but the problem is how to meet Mrs. Bian, after all, he is Cao Zhi's mother. There must be a lot of guards in the house, how can you see it lightly?
When calculating here, Zhang Liao and Sima Yi couldn't help but feel a little difficult, but Yuan Shang's mother-in-law Diao Chan was very quiet, carefully recalled Bian's living habits, and then said: "Mrs. Bian believes in God, at the beginning of every season every year, there is a habit of incense, and now it is the season when Zhongzhou is weak and the war is not going well, presumably she will go to the temple more diligently to pray for the son of the front line and the Cao family, if so, it is a good opportunity for me to see her." ”
Sima Yi thought for a while when he heard this, and said: "Although Madame's idea is good, but when Madam Bian goes out of the city, there must be no less support around her......
Diao Chan smiled slightly when he heard this, and said: "I have heard Mr. Sima's name for a long time, like thunder, you are so powerful, will you be able to use some tricks soon?" ”
Sima Yi smiled charmingly at Diao Chan, his face was red and his ears were red, and he was uncomfortable.
"That...... That one...... You can use a decoy tactic......"
Zhang Liao was stunned when he heard this, and said, "What bait tactic?" ”
"It's just to find a way to send someone to lure away the main guards around Mrs. Bian...... It's just that the candidate for this bait is a little difficult to decide. ”
Zhang Liao raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and said, "What's so difficult to decide, isn't it already obvious?" Madame needs to negotiate with Madame Bian, and I, as a military general, have the responsibility to protect Madame's safety. ”
When Sima Yi heard this, his breath suddenly suffocated: "I...... I got it? ”
Zhang Liao nodded and said, "That's right, I looked around, and it seems that only you look the most like a bait." ”
Sima Yi's face suddenly turned red, looking forward to it, his eyes wandered, as if he had something in his heart.
Looking at Sima Yi's appearance, Zhang Liao raised his eyebrows vigilantly and said, "Seeing that you look like you are going to die or not, do you want to slip away?" ”
Sima Yi snorted when he heard this, and said, "You just want to slip away...... I am...... I'm ......"
Diao Chan smiled softly and said, "If Mr. Zhongda can do this, although it is not as brave as the assassination, it is undoubtedly higher than Jing Ke's ambition to leave, which is really admirable......"
Speaking of this, Diao Chan's voice changed suddenly, as if it was like a yellow oriole, which could almost make people's bones crisp.
"When I was young, I admired such a hero the most~~~!"
Sima Yi was stunned when he heard this.
After a long time, Fang saw that this kid gritted his teeth, stomped his feet and said: "Thanks to Mrs. for being so loving, I took this bait!" ”
Diao Chan's face was overjoyed when he heard this, and he said with his palm: "Mr. Zhongda is a true hero~~!" ”
Zhang Liao also applauded with Diao Chan next to him.
Sima Yi raised his hand to wipe his sweat, looked up at the sky, and suddenly let out an inexplicable sigh in his heart.
"Yuan Shang's kid is already a demon, and now he has a mother-in-law who is even more demonic than him, even my Sima Yi has recruited her, if this mother has a tacit understanding, in the future, Weng and his son-in-law will play a scoundrel together, looking at the world, who can be the enemy?"
"............" (To be continued......)
