"Although the enemy forces in the area of Kundi are a little troublesome, they can't stop us for long."

Looking at the battle that was nearing the end in front of him, Sun Jian's face did not have much of a relaxed taste.

"But if it's to delay time, this kind of Cheng dù is not bad, at least half a day has passed."

Cao Cao seemed to see what the other party was thinking, but so what, the first battle in the pursuit was like this, although it was indeed a tactical victory, but strategically...... Well, if you don't look at those ethereal slogans of righteousness, the two people who originally wanted to fight and earn political capital are not too disappointed by such a result.

"But your army's Xiahou Yuanrang's cousin is really surprising, last time his cousin was not so strong, it seems that General Xiahou should have comprehended a lot of things during this time, so there was a breakthrough in strength."

Sun Jian's admiration at this moment was not all flattering language, because Xiahoudun's expression just now was completely worthy of such praise.

In this battle, the enemy originally occupied the advantage of the terrain, and in the natural valley mouth of the Kundi area, except for some slightly flat terrain at the bottom of the mountain, the rest was either inconvenient mountains or wasteland that was not conducive to cavalry attacks. Not to mention that there are also some bandits ambushed on the rocky mountains and cliffs on both sides, whether it is using the earth strategy to fall rocks to carry out a direct attack with the help of a huge height difference, or using the curse strategy to harass, it can be said that in such a special terrain. Although Dong Zhuo did not have any very powerful troops, just some light infantry, archers and bandits, and there were no passes to rely on for defense, it was enough to make the troops who wanted to get through Guò feel extremely tricky.

Even Cao Cao and Sun Jian felt that if it weren't for the two of them, but those guys in the coalition who commanded Qing Tan, maybe even after ten days and half a month, it would not be unusual for the Dong Zhuojun soldiers here to still be alive.

Maybe because of the massive experience gained, these soldiers who were originally like abandoned pawns will be trained into strong elite soldiers.

That's probably the biggest joke and the sadness.

This situation did not occur, and even at this time, Cao Sun and the others had to thank those guys who were cowering.

At least now the two armies of Cao and Sun don't need to face pig-like teammates when facing god-like opponents.

The offensive and defensive battles were not going well at first, and Sun Jianjun, who had entered the battle first, could not inflict enough damage on the enemy's narrow attack surface. Allows the enemy to calmly rotate soldiers. And because the enemy defenders will defend steadily. Sun Jianjun's several provocations have become useless, and it can be said that most of the delayed time was wasted by Sun Jianjun.

And the offensive results on the flanks are not obvious.

The group of bandits that Dong Zhuo found were obviously a group of rather annoying guys. Their numbers may not be very large, but their existence made the shape of the flank completely fall to Dong Zhuojun, and Sun Jianjun, who was already attacking from the back, faced the opponent's seemingly endless strategy of rolling stones and falling stones. In addition, the archers fired a few arrows from time to time. In addition to paying a lot of damage and a lot of battle damage, Sun Jianjun could not inflict much battle damage on the enemy on the ridge to change the trend of the battlefield.

For such a situation, Sun Jian actually expected it. After all, although the new army under his command is already a carefully selected elite, the time to form an army is limited after all, and there is still a considerable gap between the previous elite army that accompanied him to the south and north, especially in the mountains of Jingnan. This is also the fundamental reason for the impasse between the two sides.

The strength of the opposing army is not very strong, so as long as Sun Jian's army as an attacker is reasonably organized, the battle damage is completely at a very slight stage, so Sun Jian is also happy to waste a little time to train his troops.

The real turning point of the battle was born after Cao Cao's army entered the battlefield.

Xiahoudun led the cavalry troops to attack the troops of Taniguchi on the frontal battlefield, and Xiahouyuan led the archers to support the rear troops, and these two people, together with the troops led by Cheng Pu and Huang Gai, became the main force in the frontal battlefield. However, at this time, their main goal was no longer to break through the defense of Taniguchi, but to contain Taniguchi's forces, so that they could not help other places.

At the same time, Cao Ren led the main force of Cao Cao's army to move from the flank, striving to open a breakthrough from the ridge, and finally achieve a two-sided attack on Taniguchi's troops, which means that the key to the decisive victory is whether or not to achieve a flank breakthrough.

"It's a pity that almost all of the most elite troops of Sun Jian's army were lost in the previous battles, otherwise I would like to compare with those people to see if those southerners are stronger, or our northern army is superior."

Although he is now Cao Cao's most trusted subordinate, Cao Ren is still full of nostalgia for his more than five years in the state army, after all, it was there that he really transformed from a boy who always didn't grow up to a responsible man.

Although it can't be compared with the mountainous terrain of Jingnan, which is connected to the jungle and the jungle is covered with mountains, but Bingzhou is also a mountainous place, whether it is Shangjun that has now been recovered by Lu Zhi, or Xihe County and Yanmen County, where Cao Ren once stayed, they are all mountainous and wasteland terrain, so Cao Ren is no stranger to mountain warfare.

No, for Cao Ren, who is inspired to become a generation of famous generals, what he wants is not just understanding, but mastery.

You must know that there is no shortage of experts in mountain warfare in the Bingzhou army, whether it is Cao Ren's old friend Xu Chu, or Cao Xing, who was born in the mountains, Gao Shun, who is a military family, is an expert in mountain warfare, and Cao Ren's advice will not be so secretive, anyway, Cao Ren can always prepare enough gifts that the other party can't refuse for the other party to open his mouth (such as wine for Cao Xing or a military book for Gao Shun), and the mountainous terrain of Bingzhou can also give Cao Ren enough opportunities to practice.

Now it's time for Cao Ren to show his skills.

"The former army tree is a plank, and it acts according to my line of action. It is not allowed to change privately, it is not allowed to attack privately, and the law enforcement team will not be pardoned immediately! The Chinese army follows the front army, ready to replace the gap in the front army at any time, concentrate, and if the movement is slow, the soldiers behind will fill it immediately after killing the soldiers in front! The archers behind followed the Chinese army, and they were not allowed to act without the order to open the bow, and the law enforcement team who violated the order was immediately killed! Our first goal was to occupy the ridge and open a passage for the troops behind. The second task is to reach the western area of Kundi to complete the encirclement. There are no other combat objectives, so don't listen to the provocations of those guys on the mountain, just take those words as if they are the wind in your ears, as long as the above two objectives are achieved. What we had after the war was time to clean up the idiots. But. If there are still people who disobey military orders. Then don't blame the law enforcement team for being ruthless! ”

Cao Ren, who had a stern face, finally spat out harsh military methods, and the rapid frequency even gave others a strange illusion that this general was not preparing for the next battle, but thinking about how to deal with his soldiers. It's like the kind of demon king who kills people without blinking, and will hug each other on the mountain of corpses and blood with fresh baked and warm internal organs.

Of course, such an idea is indeed an illusion.

Although it sounded very harsh, the face of the soldier in front of him did not make the slightest wave.

After getting along for a long time, the soldiers naturally knew very well that their boss was indeed a very strict general when he was doing his business, not only set a very high standard of training, but also imposed various punishments if he could not complete it, and if he violated the military order in battle, he would be punished with a cane at least and lose his life at worst.

But this approach surprisingly did not cause much backlash, and it also made Cao Ren's prestige remain high in Cao Cao's army.

Because, on weekdays, Cao Ren will completely become a different appearance, very concerned about his subordinates, and people are not completely unkind, as long as it is not something involving the law, it is not difficult to speak, and even has a considerable sense of humor. Especially generous to his subordinates, whether it is in merit, life or even daily training.

It should be said that Cao Ren inherited many of the traditions formed by Li Shushi's Bingzhou Army from a certain Cheng dù, and added his own unique personality, and finally became such a unique Cao Zixiao. Coupled with his excellent martial arts, he has the title of "ghost god".

Cao Ren's troops were stuck in the range of the various strategies that those bandits could use to attack the ridge, which greatly limited the role of those bandits. For the rest, whether it's a rock-throwing or a bow and arrow attack, the damage that can be inflicted under the orderly slabs has been reduced to a minimum.

In the face of this fighting style of not being greedy, not rushing, not being distracted, and advancing step by step, the enemy troops on the ridge obviously have no good way. What's more important is that Cao Ren is not fighting alone, on the path he has opened up, the coalition soldiers are advancing continuously, and even have the ability to divide their forces to pick up the bandits who are ambushed in higher and more dangerous places.

Even if the soldiers of the coalition army were not as slippery as the bandits in the mountains and forests, the role of the bandits in this battle was also completely eliminated, and for those bandits, they had already left the battle early.

If Cao Ren's side only won glory for Cao Cao's face and made Sun Jian sigh at the excellence of Cao's generals, then Xiahoudun, whose main goal was to contain the enemy army on the frontal battlefield, gave Cao Sun and the others a big surprise.

"Come on, come on! Who else dares to fight with me Xiahou Yuanrang, I haven't even finished warming up! ”

Xiahoudun, let's not care what kind of existence he is in other time and space, at least in this plane, this guy is a bull with a force potential of up to 98, that is to say, with the force potential alone, Li Shushi knows that the only thing that can pass him is Lu Bu, Dian Wei and Zhang Fei, plus an emperor Wang Yue that Li Shushi only knew later. And Xu Chu is on par with it, as for Tong Yuan, who is old and sophisticated, or Zilong Sauce, who is like a dragon, one is just over 9o, and the other is still spinning on 96.

It's just like Lu Bu before, if it is completely dependent on personal comprehension, it will naturally not be a problem, but it will take a long time, even if Xiahoudun may have surpassed Lu Bu a lot at the starting point, but he is far from being able to compare with Lu Bu in terms of age and the cruelty of the war he has experienced, so he has no potential but cannot fully swing it.

It wasn't until after the big battle with Wang Yue that after that experience between life and death. What has been accumulated in the body is really beginning to be absorbed and comprehended by the body. even became the one who benefited the most in that battle at that time, after all, Cheng Pu was limited by qualifications, and Zhang Fei lacked enough guidance, and many things were still mostly wild.

Perhaps limited by the gap in their own ranks, the combat effectiveness of the entire unit may not be able to achieve the effect of crushing, but if the battle is switched to using the general's personal force to attack the enemy's commander, even if it cannot succeed, the mode of strictly reducing the morale of the enemy army has played an unexpectedly good effect.

After all, they were not facing elite troops who had been on the battlefield for a long time, if it weren't for the advantage they had in the previous confrontation against Sun Jian's army, which boosted their morale, they showed a level of toughness. Even if they occupied the favorable terrain, they would not be able to compete with the troops under Cao Sun's command for such a long time. And Xiahoudun is just like a steel needle. Gives out the enemy's balloon-like momentum. Without the bonus of morale, the defenders who were even hit by Xiahoudun's shocking "celestial" cousin were not only greatly discounted, but even soon took advantage of the situation by Cheng Pu and Huang Gai, who were more experienced in the battlefield, and retreated.

When Cao Ren led his troops to occupy the ridge. It's time to start outflanking the defenders. The Kundi defenders, who could no longer hold on, finally began to crumble. The first battle born when chasing Dong Zhuo can basically be declared over.

It was naturally impossible for Cao Sun to stay here to capture the captives and chase the remnants, their main target was still Dong Zhuo after all.

Even if it's a play, you have to do a full set.

After the pond, the next important place is Shaanxi County. It is also a very dangerous place, and even more advantageous than Michi, in the middle of the rolling mountains, a small but unusually conspicuous castle occupies the middle of the official road. On the other side is the rolling Yellow River, from Hongnong to the most famous Maojindu in Hedong, not far from the northeast of the county seat of Shaanxi County.

Looking at the Dongzi banner fluttering in the county seat of Shaanxi County, Cao Cao and Sun Jian glanced at each other, knowing that it would be a tough battle soon.

"This ...... What does this mean...... Fool us, or laugh at us. ”

The battle in Shaanxi County was also not very much, because the troops stationed in the county seat of Shaanxi County were not even more than a thousand people. It is only about four tuns (about 8oo people) of light infantry and two tun archers.

This time, it was Sun Jianjun's troops who stood out.

Although the county seat of Shaanxi County is in a more dangerous place, but the height of the city wall of this city is not high, probably because it is in a relatively stable area, so there is no need for the towering city wall as protection, so the government does not need to put the main funds on the maintenance and reinforcement of the city wall, which eventually caused the city wall of Shaanxi County to be less than two feet high.

The city wall is not high, but the wall is also pitted, which is very conducive to climbing. In addition, there are not enough soldiers in the city that can be used for defense, so the pressure on Sun Jianjun, who is besieging the city, is very small.

With just a tentative attack and a full-fledged assault of slightly greater intensity, the defenders of the city were no longer able to resist. Although the veteran of Xiliang, who is the defender of Shaancheng, still wants to resist for a while, he has more than enough strength to do so.

In this battle, even Cao Cao's troops needed to be dispatched, not to mention the soldiers and horses "sponsored" by those allies.

In fact, in the eyes of many people, this pursuit of Dong Zhuo has become a bit like going out in the wild.

Of course, for some generals who want to show their strength in order to improve their status in the eyes of their lords, they have already begun to think about how to attack, after all, it looks like the intensity is not too strong and there doesn't seem to be much risk, it is really an excellent opportunity.

Therefore, when the troops left the county seat of Shaanxi County and aimed directly at Hongnong City west of Candlewater, in the face of Cao Cao and Sun Jian's cautiousness, they continued to send detectives to explore the nearby mountains and forests, lest they encounter an ambush.

Regarding the actions of these people, both Cao Cao and Sun Jian sneered in their hearts, and even hoped that Dong Zhuojun could jump out and clean them up. It's just that because they were worried about the face of Yuan Shao, who was the leader of the alliance and a good friend, and Yuan Shu, who was also a high-level member of the alliance and had a small heart, the two of them didn't dare to really treat the troops sent over as the vanguard to send them to death.

"How does Meng De feel about those guys?"

"Li Shushi once said in the past: 'If you are not afraid of god-like opponents, you are afraid of pig-like teammates.'" Now feels the pain of the skin. ”

However, the degree of the pursuing troops finally accelerated a lot, after all, after many explorations, there was no trace of the ambush soldiers, which made the two commanders of the pursuing troops also have some doubts: Dong Zhuo really just wanted to withdraw, at most he just left some troops to attack and harass, and he led the large army to advance.

Such an idea is not strange, after all, before Dong Zhuo left Luoyang, the population and wealth in Luoyang City had been basically transferred by him to the Sanfu region, and he evacuated Luoyang this time to follow him with all the soldiers under his command, unless Dong Zhuo still planned to do something along the way, otherwise Dong Zhuo's army marched slower than their pursuing force, but it was not slow.

The most important thing is that, as I said before, as long as Dong Zhuo's army crosses Tongguan, it will be difficult for Cao and Sun to cause any greater battle damage to Dong Zhuojun even if they have a thousand skills, and it will be almost time for Dong Zhuo to arrive at the place.

It is precisely because of this judgment that the two of them finally boldly issued the order to let the whole army march.

As a result, when they crossed the candle water, they "caught up" with Dong Zhuojun's rear troops.

Suddenly, the morale of the pursuing troops soared, but Cao Cao, Sun Jian, and several generals under the two who were good at thinking showed subtle expressions in unison.

Something doesn't seem right. (To be continued......)
