Chapter 519: Guan Yu is reckless
"Jia Rong of the Xiliang Army, not our army can resist now, only to aim the troops at Yan Rou in Youzhou, I have heard that there are many Wuhuan rebellions in Youzhou, the army is fighting back and forth, and the soldiers are tired, it is a good time, if you can calm Youzhou in one fell swoop, what is the Cao army afraid of." Xu Youdao.
Yuan Shao was about to make a final decision on the case, but Tian Feng persuaded: "Lord, no, Yan Rou of Youzhou, is very human, he was able to defeat the powerful Gongsun Zan with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and his strategy and courage can be seen, and he will definitely offend Yan Rou if he rushes to send troops, and he needs to plan carefully." ”
Xu You pointed at Tian Feng and scolded: "Lord Tian, what do you mean by this, can't the lord even defeat the little Yan Rou." Don't forget, if it wasn't for the lord's soldiers to send Youzhou back then, how could Yan Rou have the current situation, then Yan Rou is just like this, Gongsun Zhan's strongest Bai Ma Yi was wiped out from the hands of the lord, let alone him? ”
Yuan Shao glared at Tian Feng with an unhappy face, and said: "In the coming day, we will gather 100,000 soldiers and horses, send troops to Youzhou, and order General Gao Ran to respond in Zhuo County!" ”
"No!"
After everyone left, Tian Feng looked up to the sky and sighed, under Yuan Shao's account, the most unlucky thing is to get acquainted with Xu You, this person is narrow-minded, and good at sneaking whiskers and slapping horses, Tian Feng is quite unsightly, it is precisely because of this that Xu You also does everything with him, today's matter, presumably Xu You has also seen that Tian Feng's strategy is to send troops instead of disarming, but immediately jumped out and blocked Tian Feng's words in his mouth, so that Yuan Shao misunderstood, the strategists under his command can not work together, Tian Feng even faintly doubted whether such an army can last long, However, from the beginning to the end, he firmly occupied his thoughts, and naturally there was no talk of changing jobs, only to work together to assist Yuan Shao, hoping to gain an advantage on the battlefield in Youzhou.
"Yuan Hao, don't care, how can the lord be narrow-minded, today's matter, Yuan Hao is also dedicated to the sake of our army, the lord will not blame you if he understands it afterwards." Frustrated and persuaded.
These two people are both bull-tempered, and they can't rub sand in their eyes, but the way they speak is not as good as Xu You, so they have real materials, but they can't compare to Xu You's treatment in the army.
Jizhou Yuan Shao sent 10,000 troops to Qingzhou, and another 100,000 troops to Youzhou, the princes of the world moved again, just because Jia Rong led the army to attack and Zhou, and today's situation is only temporarily stable, but all people of insight have begun to plan for the things behind them, the Han Emperor is gone, and the princes who are worthy of refuge must of course think about it.
Let's say that Cao Cao attacked all the way to Pengcheng, seeing that the soldiers were heavily guarded, and the defenders were Guan Yu, he already had a plan in his heart, Guan Yu was a military general, as long as the soldiers came forward to abuse, why worry that he would not go out of the city to fight, and then only need the army to cover up, Guan Yusheng will be captured alive, and Pengcheng will also be self-defeating.
"Send a message to the defenders of the city!" Cao Cao said.
Guan Yu carefully looked at the invitation letter in his hand, his brows became more and more frowned, and he suddenly said angrily: "Cao Cao, I really think that our army is easy to bully!" ”
Zhou Cang on the side persuaded: "The general must not be angry, the Cao army has 100,000 people, and my defenders only have more than 30,000, if you stick to the city, it will be difficult for the Cao army to do anything, Cao Cao's move is just to provoke the general, so as to lead the general out of the city and fight." ”
Guan Yu glanced at Zhou Cang in surprise, he thought that this person was a reckless martial artist, but he didn't expect to be quite knowledgeable, "Zhou Cang, General Ben ordered you to lead five thousand men and horses to hold Pengcheng, and wait for General Ben's banner to win." ”
Zhou Cang opened his mouth, and before he could be persuaded again, the general on the side touched him lightly, and suddenly said: "Thank you for the general's trust, I will definitely defend the city with all my heart and live up to the general's trust!" ”
Seeing Zhou Cang's interest, Guan Yu's face showed a little joy, and he wrote a letter by himself, agreeing on the time and place of the invitation, as well as the number of people.
When the two armies are fighting, in order to end the war as soon as possible, they often use the invitation to fight and find a place to solve the battle, but in this case, there are often two sides with equal strength, sending tens of thousands of troops, and the daily consumption of grain and grass materials is countless, and the princes cannot afford it.
But there is not enough strength, the weak will often rely on the city wall to fight with the strong, and the art of war will surround it, that is to say, if you want to capture a strong city, you must have at least ten times the strength of the defenders to have a chance of winning, this is only a theory in numbers.
The flag is unfurled, the soldiers are black and pressed, and the two sides dispatch 5,000 people at the same time to conduct a battle, this battle, the sky is dark, the sun and the moon are dark, the Cao army is elite, and the Xuzhou army is also not bad, and it is not necessary to lead the fierce general of Guan Yu.
On the battlefield, Guan Yu personally led hundreds of cavalry to kill Cao Jun, like a sharp sword, tearing Cao Jun open a big hole, straight to the Chinese army, on strength, with a treasure knife, Guan Yu's strength has risen more than one point, looking at Cao Jun There are few opponents.
Cao Cao has no shortage of generals in his hands, one can't beat you, I can use two or even three, and drag you to death.
Cao Jun's banner of the Chinese army was in front of him, but Guan Yu had to face the incursion of three generals, and these three people did not seek to make contributions, but only blocked Guan Yu and did not let him advance.
On the strength of the soldiers, the Cao army has always been a strong one, and the two sides on the battlefield are very happy, but a closer look can see that the Xuzhou army has been at a disadvantage, and is struggling to support the offensive of the Cao army, if it is not for the Yu on this side to lead the army to kill, the soldiers in the rear may have given up resistance, unlike the Xiliang army, once the army of the Central Plains princes is defeated, the soldiers must want to run away immediately, not desperately, leaving Qingshan without worrying about no firewood, the soldier's Qingshan is their strong body, As long as the people are still there, there is no need to worry about the army, which is also the treatment of the Central Plains princes for the soldiers is too poor, the number of soldiers is large, and there is a lack of sufficient governance, so they can only start from the treatment of soldiers.
Seeing this, Guan Yu was anxious, the two sides accounted for each other, it was a battle of gentlemen, Cao Cao would definitely not cheat, not to mention that Guan Yu still had 20,000 troops in the rear to guard it, how could he be afraid of Cao Cao.
Standing up bravely, Guan Yu slashed the green dragon glaive three times in a row, the sword light flashed, and the weapon in the hand of a military general was broken, and he was also cut off the horse.
Seeing the death of their companions, the eyes of the other two generals looking at Guan Yu contained a trace of fear, the weapon in Guan Yu's hand was able to cut off the weapon in the hand of the general, what kind of divine weapon is needed to do this, the military general asked himself if the weapon in his hand could withstand such an attack.
There was a little fear in his heart, so he gave Guan Yu the opportunity to continue to rush and kill, and resolutely led the cavalry to kill the middle army of the Cao army, the banner was close at hand, Guan Yu's eyes flashed with excitement, as long as the opponent's banner was cut off, this battle would be considered their victory.
"Guan Yu'er, Hugh is rampant, see you Grandpa Xu come to meet you!" It was Xu Zhu, holding a long knife, to kill Guan Yu, since the last time the military general suffered a loss in the hands of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Cao Cao ordered the blacksmith to build a good weapon, and the weapon of the fierce general was replaced, which also made Xu Zhu's confidence skyrocket.
Guan Yu's eyes tightened, and the long knife in his hand swung towards Xu Zhu, which seemed to be light and fluttering, but it actually contained the power of a thousand jun.
Xu Zhu didn't expect Guan Yu to come to such a hand, in a hurry, he raised his knife to greet him, and when he looked closely, there was a gap the size of a soybean on the blade, and when he looked at the treasure knife in Guan Yu's hand, the burning in his eyes could be imagined.
With a cold snort, Guan Yu was unforgiving, and continued to kill Xu Zhu, one move was more powerful than the other, and Xu Zhu was forced to retreat, and the banner of Cao's Chinese army was also successfully captured under the charge of the cavalry.
The victory has been decided, and Guan Yu is satisfied with the withdrawal of the army!
Seeing their own army and Cao army fighting a great victory, the defenders of Pengcheng all rushed to tell each other, even the people in the city heard the news, but also smiled, Cao Cao's style at the beginning, but let the people be afraid, in the troubled times, the people are trying to live a stable life, see Cao Cao's arrival, how can there be no fear in the heart, Liu Bei also grasped this point, let the people under his command more than the brutality of the Cao army has been the act of the year, Cao Cao's image in the hearts of the people of Xuzhou, naturally can not be worse, although this time the Cao army attacked Xuzhou, There was no radical action in the rules, but once he was bitten by a snake for ten years and was afraid of the well rope, and lived under the rule of Cao Cao, he was somewhat uneasy.
Seeing Guan Yu returning victorious, Zhou Cang's face was slightly ugly, and he didn't say what he said before, so he didn't know what Guan Yu would think of himself.
Cao Cao didn't have the slightest look on his face that only the defeated have, but comforted Xu Zhu, "The treasure knife in General Xu's hand was destroyed again, and he should be ordered to build it again in the future, I heard that the weapon in Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's hands came from the Chang'an craftsman workshop, Jia Rong and I have an old relationship, maybe we can get one or two." ”
When the generals heard this, their eyes showed a scorching light, no military general does not love the divine soldiers, no matter how high Guan Yu's martial arts are, without the Qinglong Yanyue Knife in his hand, the martial arts will also be greatly discounted, and once Guan Yu is blocked, the remaining Xuzhou soldiers are not worried, today's battle, the generals and soldiers in the army are vivid, and they are completely relying on Guan Yu's martial arts to win.
The failure of the first battle between the two armies did not seem to have the slightest impact on Cao Cao, his face still maintained a wise color, his eyes flowed, eye-catching, Cao Cao at this moment is undoubtedly the most attractive, serious and does not put failure in his eyes, this is the temperament that the commander on the battlefield should have.
After everyone left, Xi Zhicai said: "Lord, Guan Yu is a scheming and calm person, will he be fooled?" ”
"Hehe, if the army wins, how can it not be arrogant, not to mention that Liu Beijun and our army have a great grudge, Guan Yu will definitely do his best to attack our army when he sees that something can be done." Cao Cao laughed.
The strategists in the tent saw that Cao Cao's analysis was reasonable, and they began to plan for Cao Cao's strategy, and there are many differences between Yuan Shao in Jizhou, under Cao Cao's command, as long as you have a strategy, Cao Cao will give you a chance to perform, which is also the reason why Cao Jun has many talents.
