Chapter 1281 Xiahou marched north to Xu Chutu
"General, is the lord's order written incorrectly?"
Xiahoudun pinched the paper in his hand and frowned, writing wrong? This is unlikely, but let yourself give up Mengyin's defense and attack to the north with all your might, aren't you worried that Xu Shu will take the opportunity to take Mengyin and push the defense line to Mengyin, and Huaxian County in the south will become a salient department, and it is impossible to continue to hold on, and you must retreat to Fei County to the west, so that your south side will take a big step back, if Fang Zhiwen exerts his strength in Donghai County at the same time, even Tancheng will be in danger!
"This order will definitely not be wrong, but I can't be sure, why does the lord firmly believe that Fang Zhiwen will not take the opportunity to go west?"
"Shall we carry it out?"
"Of course it was carried out, but in order to be precautionary, all the militia in the city were recruited, and the forts outside the city were withdrawn into the city, and Huaxian was ordered to shrink the scope of defense, and if necessary, it could retreat to Fei County, and ordered Fei County to start recruiting militia and increase the construction of urban defense facilities." ”
"No1
"In addition, the three armies were ordered to prepare to pull out the camp and march north."
"Where's the target, General?"
"Well, here." Xiahoudun knocked the map
Xiahoudun's cavalry took the lead, suddenly broke through the dividing line between the northwest of Mengyin and Yan Liang, and began to uproot the fortress established by Yan Liang and clean up the reconnaissance cavalry in this area.
Yan Liang had to turn his attention from Luxian and Wenyang in the west to Liangfu and Pingyang in the east. The geographical location of Pingyang is relatively close to Mount Tai, Yan Liang has never cared much about it, and Xu Huang has also tacitly not moved to Pingyang. Even if Xiahoudun occupies Pingyang, it is not a big problem.
But Liang Fu is different, the west of Liang Fu is Juping and Wenyang, if Xiahoudun takes these two places, and then gathers in Wenyang, then Yan Liang in Lu County will be the turtle in the urn. However, if Yan Liang turned back to defend Liang Fu, then the defenders on Lu County's side would be too weak, and they might be defeated by Lu County. Xiahoudun's attack direction was very good, and it just hit Yan Liang's most uncomfortable neck.
Yan Liang weighed again and again, but decided to stick to Lu County. The significance of Lu County is to involve the heavy troops of Fu Zhi, so as to create conditions for Yuan Shao, who is besieging Han Sui on the northern front, even if he is not able to hold the northern part of Lu County and the central part of Taishan County in the end. As long as the north can completely annihilate Han Sui. It's all worth it.
Therefore, local battles must be subordinated to the overall situation, and Yan Liang's view of the overall situation is doubtful that there is no problem.
Yan Liang left Gao Gan to hold on to Lu County, and he only brought 20,000 cavalry, his idea was very simple, he was not going to fight a decisive battle with Xiahoudun, but to contain Xiahoudun, so that he could not let go of the attack, as long as Xiahoudun was delayed on the front line of Liangfu. Drag the frustration on the front line of Wenyang, Lu County, then Yan Liang's task will be accomplished.
Yan Liang's choice is of course very correct. However, it would be incredible if Cao Cao's arrangement stopped there.
Cao Cao's use of troops, has always been a clear goal, and willing to invest, in the decisive battle, like to invest as much combat power as possible in the local area, Xiahoudun's northward advance, is to completely drag Yan Liang, at the same time, but also the appropriate liberation of part of the troops, not only that, Cao Cao also continued to invest heavy troops in the northern front, Xu Chu Legion and Cao Chun Legion two trump cards also quietly dispatched
Xu Chu stationed his horse on a small hill, watching his cavalry silently march forward in the dark, his eyes jumping with excited battle intent.
Xu Chu is on the battlefield, probably the eighth-order general who has been hung up the most, of course, he entered the eighth-order or completed the battle with Lu Bu in the end, although he hung up many times, but Xu Chu worked hard, not only did his strength not decrease but he could quickly step into the eighth-order level, not to mention anything else, this perseverance alone is not something ordinary people can have.
Although everyone in Cao Cao's camp recognized Xu Chu as the number one general under Cao Cao, everyone did not laugh at Xu Chu's defeat, only admired, but Xu Chu was still eager to use more victories to wash away the not-so-good-looking record on his head, so he finally had the opportunity to fight, and Xu Chu was very fortunate and cherished.
"Ordered the soldiers to speed up, and make another ride, and strive to reach Fucheng before dawn1
"No1
"Let me tell you, this is an opportunity to wash away the stigma on us, and don't miss the fighter1
"No1
Dong'a, Han Sui's headquarters is brightly lit, although the doors on all sides of the headquarters have been turned on, but the sultry weather still makes people feel breathless, on the side of the lamp, many mosquitoes are flying tirelessly, making a buzzing sound, and the noisy people are irritable.
"Father-in-law, let General Chenggong withdraw to Henan, no matter what, first repel the enemy in front of you."
"Confused, it's easy for Hebei to retreat, but it's difficult to go north again, once that's the case, our previous plan will be completely frustrated, isn't this a waste of the end! At the beginning, I should have listened to Zhixian and gave up Dong'e to deal with Yuan Shao in Hebei! It's a pity hey 1
Yan Xing thought for a while and said: "Didn't Cao Cao say that the reinforcements will arrive very soon, as long as we concentrate our forces to eat Wen Chou and Pan Feng, the land of Hebei is full of loopholes, and the situation can be reversed in one fell swoop." ”
"Well, I hope so! It's just that I'm a little worried about Cao Cao."
The worry in Han Sui's eyes was very deep, for Cao Cao, Han Sui's vigilance was great, if Cao Cao sent reinforcements early, instead of just sending a bridge that was not light or heavy, he would be able to defeat Wen Chou and Pan Feng in one fell swoop, and the whole battle situation would not be the embattled situation it is now.
Now that Cao Cao's army is advancing north, it is not clear whether he is here to resist Yuan Shao or to destroy himself first, and Han Sui's heart will inevitably go up and down.
"Father-in-law, could it be that Cao Cao will destroy the Great Wall at this pass? If our army collapses. Yuan Shao was located in Hebei, and also held Jibei, Dongping, Lujun and other places, and completely grasped the initiative in the attack. Could this be a good thing for Cao Cao? ”
"Naturally, this will not be the case, I am just worried that Cao Cao will let us shed the last drop of blood, and when our county and Yuan Shao are both defeated, he can sit and reap the profits."
"This"
"Is there any news about Cao Jun's behavior?"
Yan Xing shook his head hesitantly, and Han Sui sighed and said:
"You see, Cao Cao is very wary of us. He didn't even tell us about the military deployment until the last moment, who knows what he had in mind? The so-called defense of people is indispensable, and we have to be cautious1
But how careful should we be? One way or another. It's always right to defeat Wen Chou, can we still sit back and watch Cao Cao and Yuan Shao fight? ”
"It's definitely not going to work, just keep an eye on it, don't believe Cao Cao easily."
"I see1
The night of August 12. Clear!
The moon in the sky is bright. It stands to reason that it was not a good time for a sneak attack, but Han Sui never cared, because the weather was too hot during the day, and the Xiliang cavalry was not used to fighting in such hot weather, and the war horses were not good, so Han Sui put the attack at night.
An earthen rampart had been built around Wenchou's camp, and Han Sui broke it at night. In the daytime, Wen Chou will repair it, and the tug-of-war between the two sides consumes human lives. In addition, Wen Chou's supply is also relatively difficult, but with Pan Feng's heavy infantry cover, and a large number of strangers to help, Wen Chou's supply can barely support now.
Wen Chou actually knew that once the reinforcements of the frustrated grant arrived, I am afraid that most of his side would not be able to withstand it, and in the end he would have to retreat to Pingyin and Linyi to hold the front line, but before the frustrated reinforcements arrived, Wen Chou would never be able to retreat, in order to stick to Han Sui to the death and give Yuan Shao time to capture Dunqiu.
Yan Liang's message Wen Chou had already received, Xu Miao thought that this was a signal for the reinforcements to go north, and Wen Chou also agreed with this view, so he made corresponding preparations, and once things went wrong, he would retreat immediately.
"General, the enemy offensive is strong tonight, and I suspect that the defenders in the enemy city may have also been involved in the attack1
"This enemy reinforcement has arrived?"
Xu Miao smiled bitterly and nodded: "I'm afraid yes, the general has to make a decision early1."
"Order the scouts to take control of the eastern side of the road, issue a mission, and let the Inhumans explore the entire battlefield! Summoned Pan Feng to prepare the fire and prepare to let the enemy army in, and ordered all departments to prepare to retreat1
"No1
"The wall is broken, rush ah 1
"Kill! ~”
One after another, the walls were breached, and the Wen Chou army seemed to have no will to fight, and was fighting and retreating, Han Sui squinted and watched, but there was no joy on his face.
"Order, don't rush, check for traps around1
"No1
Before Han Sui's words fell, fires had already broken out everywhere in the camp!
"Hmph, that's true, the order, the cavalry attacked, bypassing the camp and pursuing the enemy1
"No1
The rumbling cavalry galloped, and the whole land seemed to tremble.
"General, the enemy cavalry approached 1
"Swing the car formation, order Pan Feng to break off, and maintain speed! Twenty miles before the scout1
"General? It is better to let the troops advance north1
Wen Chou was stunned for a moment, then looked at Xu Miao's young face with the flickering firelight, and pondered for a moment: "Listen to you." Ordered the troops to advance northward, heading straight for Linyi 1
"No1
Han Sui chased Wen Chou tightly, but unfortunately Wen Chou's troops defended very strictly, Han Sui chased and attacked with a bow and arrow, and the effect was not good, and he tried to impact again, the effect was poor, and the light cavalry was completely useless against the heavy infantry vehicle formation.
Han Sui could only reluctantly follow, hoping that Wen Chou would make a mistake, or that Xu Chu, who went to attack Gu Cheng, could come and attack Wen Chou as much as he could after discovering that he had done a day job.
"Father-in-law, let me rush again.1
"Don't waste your troops, the other party is so rigorous, what can you take advantage of."
"Stupid Xu Chu, he actually went to occupy what valley city, and hit a front and back attack, is Wen Chou a stupid? If there is another cavalry, it will definitely be able to tear through the opponent's defense1
"Huh, stupid? He was very smart, and he occupied Gucheng without spending a single soldier 1 Han Sui thought about it: "Order, stop the pursuit, clean up the battlefield and end the battle, and cross the Yellow River north tomorrow 1 to be continued......
