As soon as Cao Jun's side counted it, Zangba, Guo Jia, Sun Guan, and Sun Kang were shocked. (.) After the first battle, Zhang Xiu single-handedly killed the twelve generals of the Cao army, including the coach Zhang Shao, Zang Ba, Sun Guan and Sun Kang, who were martial artists, were even more shocked. I am afraid that Lu Bu will be resurrected, and the degree of violence is no more than that.

Zang Ba once followed Lu Bu, and when he heard that Zhang Xiu won Lu Bu alone, Zang Ba didn't believe it too much, and felt that it should be Zhang Xiu's despicable means. And because Zhang Xiu has never had a too special record, Zang Ba's suspicion is even deeper. But today it seems that this is not the case, the first-class level Zhang Shao and the five generals besieged Zhang Xiu and were all killed by him, which shows that Zhang Xiu's fierceness can only be compared with the resurrected Lu Bu. In the camp, Zang Ba grabbed Guo Jia and asked, "Sir, is it just a plan for Yanba to fall into the enemy's plan?" ”

Guo Jia sighed and said, "Xuangao used arrows to prevent the enemy from entering the camp before, but it was not wrong to act decisively. However, after the camp gate was closed, arrows were used to shoot the army outside the camp, but it was a hammer! Zang eavesdropped on it and said strangely: "Wrong? But they're already going to drop the embroidery ......."

Before Guo Jia could finish speaking, he waved his hand and said, "Definitely!" Xuan Gaozhi desperately let people release arrows, regardless of whether they are enemies or me, and the soldiers can still accept it. If Gain is killed by Zhang Xiu, the camp will not be protected, and everyone will die together. However, the camp has been closed, but he continues to shoot those soldiers outside the camp who can't come in, but it chills the hearts of all the soldiers. You must know that now our army has just been defeated, and the false righteousness has fallen again, and the morale has plummeted, and the hearts of the soldiers have been chilled, but I am afraid that as soon as Zhang Xiu is killed, those soldiers will surrender without fighting. Zang Ba heard this and said hurriedly: "Sir, how is Thulium good at this time?" ”

Guo Jia heard this, sighed, and said: "In this case, the only way to do this is to retreat and return to Chenliu, and please send a letter to the prime minister, and the prime minister will decide." ”

Zang Ba listened, nodded, and then asked: "Although Sir's words are reasonable, but Zhang Xiu knows the situation of our army, how can he let our army easily return to Chenliu." It must be known that this place is also a day's journey from Chen Liu, and Zhang Xiu's cavalry is far superior to our army, and he retreated in a hurry only for fear that the army will collapse

Guo Jia heard this, a rare smile appeared on his pale face, and said, "Don't worry, Jia has a plan to retreat." After saying that, even Guo Jia himself sighed helplessly, who would have thought that the entire 100,000 army was defeated, and it was so completely defeated.

Guo Jia secretly summed up the reason, but the most important thing was the lack of estimation of the enemy's combat strength. Cao Jun had never fought with Zhang Xiu before, nor had he seen Zhang Xiu's army make a move. The most recent one was last year, when Cao Cao cut his beard and broke his robe.

However, the situation was more special at that time, the first Cao army returned south after the battle against Wuhuan, and the soldiers were tired. Secondly, it was snow at that time, and the combat power of the Qianghu iron cavalry equipped with horseshoes did not decrease at all, but the Cao army did not. After this battle, Cao Cao also learned Zhang Xiu and added horseshoes to Cao's cavalry. The third is that there is also its own carelessness in it, of course, this carelessness is more caused by the gap in Zhang Xiu's estimation.

In this battle, the two sides did not fight those complicated strategies, and it was difficult to use those complicated strategies by foot against horseman, and the mobility ability was not as good as that of people. Moreover, before the war, in fact, the two sides thought very closely, that is, to force the other side to attack and achieve the result of destroying the enemy army as much as possible or dragging the enemy army. This is also the reason why Guo Jia asked Zhang Shao to set a large number of traps outside the camp at the beginning, but in the end, Zhang Xiu, who had the cavalry side, took the opportunity and forced Cao's side to take the initiative to attack.

Although Guo Jia lost in strategy because of the type of troops, Guo Jia was not too afraid of Zhang Xiu when it came to a head-to-head confrontation. And Guo Jia knew that Zhang Xiu would definitely not defend the camp, but would only go out of the camp to fight, so he was even more fearless of the Cao army, which had 100,000 elites.

The Danyang soldiers, Taishan soldiers and the halberd soldiers were all considered the elite of Cao's army, but the cavalry against Zhang Xiu was completely defeated. Guo Jia also knew that Zhang Xiu was an elite soldier route, and the combat power of the army was strong, but the combat power of the Qianghu Iron Cavalry was beyond Guo Jia's expectations. Especially the invulnerable Pangulis, Guo Jia was even more surprised, even the Euphorbia was not an opponent.

In addition to the soldiers, there is another person who surprised Guo Jia is Zhang Xiu himself. At the beginning, Zhang Shao led eight generals to besiege Zhang Xiu, and Guo Jia couldn't imagine that the eight people would die under Zhang Xiu's gun even with Zhang Shao himself. Pick 12 generals in a row, so brave, who in the world can be the enemy

Therefore, Cao Ying's top and bottom actually did not know much about Zhang Xiu himself and the cavalry under him, and at least there was a gap in the estimation of the combat power of the two sides. On the other hand, Zhang Xiu clearly knew that the strongest cavalry in Cao's camp was the tiger and leopard cavalry. The horse himself led the Qianghu Iron Cavalry to fight with the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry after a long run and several battles in a row, and the result was that it was slightly inferior to the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry after a long time of running.

Zhang Xiu got such information and put down a big stone in his heart directly, although Zhang Xiu knew that there were other elites in the Cao camp, but the cavalry had an innate advantage over the infantry. His own army is not much worse than Cao Jun's most elite tiger and leopard cavalry, Zhang Xiu's heart has already been bottomed, and he is not afraid of a head-on confrontation with Cao Jun's field.

This has to be said to be Zhang Xiu's advantage as a traverser, which makes Zhang Xiu truly know himself and his opponent. The ability of the enemy general and the enemy's combat power and other secret information made Zhang Xiu know it clearly, and Cao Jun was invincible under the head-on encounter.

This defeat finally allowed Guo Jia to roughly figure out the combat power of Zhang Xiujun's army and Zhang Xiu's own ability, so he can roughly estimate the combat power of Zhang Xiu's generals and the combat power of the rest of the armies. In this way, Cao Jun's side finally has an understanding of Zhang Xiu's basic situation, but the price is also very large!

On the other side, Zhang Xiu's camp, Zhang Xiu, Ma and Huaxiong were full of joy on their faces, and even Jia Xu had a rare smile on his face.

Ma Dangxian laughed and said: "This big victory is really a good fight!" However, the lord is still powerful, and he single-handedly kills twelve Cao generals, including Zhang Shao, the coach of Cao Jun, which is too powerful! As he spoke, a look of admiration flashed in the horse's eyes. Now the one who can really admire Ma is Zhang Xiu. Hua Xiong also laughed and said: "The lord is powerful, Xiong has long known it!" Zhang Xiu heard this, waved his hand, and said with a smile: "Although our army defeated Cao's army this time, it has not finished the whole work. ”

Ma heard this, and laughed and said: "Why should the lord worry, those Cao troops have already been killed, rest for one night, and tomorrow morning I will attack the camp in a big way, not afraid that I will not be able to break through the camp!" After Ma finished speaking, Hua Xiong over there also nodded, with such an obvious advantage, the two of them also knew that Cao Jun would not be able to withstand it for long. In this case, it only takes a hard attack to achieve a big victory. Zhang Xiu just smiled, turned his head to look at Jia Xu, and asked, "What does Wen He think?"

Jia Xu pondered for a while and said: "The defeat of the Cao army is already the fighting spirit of the soldiers, and the master calculates to reduce the hegemony, Cao Junshinian's heart will inevitably be cold by his ruthless methods, and the Cao army has only one way to retreat. However, Cao Jun also knew that our cavalry was there, and with the ordinary method of retreating, our army would definitely be able to catch up. Therefore, it is necessary to expand the results of the battle and completely defeat this Cao army, but I am afraid that it will not be so easy to become Ding J7o

After Zhang Xiu listened to Jia Xu's words, his heart sank, as if he had suddenly been poured cold water on his head, and the complacent feeling of victory over Cao Jun before retreated in vain. After taking a few deep breaths, Zhang Xiu immediately adjusted his mentality, Zhang Xiu also knew that the current opponent was Guo Jia, although he won for a while, but the opponent may not have the power to fight back. If he was impulsive and fell for Guo Jia's scheme, then Ma Jia's dagger would be bigger. Jia Xu saw that Zhang Xiu had adjusted his mentality so quickly, and nodded secretly in his heart.

I have known Zhang Xiu for more than ten years, from a small general to a prince now, every time I mention it at a critical juncture, Zhang Xiu can basically adjust his mentality quickly. And then face every opponent with a cautious attitude, this is also where Jia Xu feels that Zhang Xiu is the master, of course, in Jia Xu's opinion, Zhang Xiu still has such and such shortcomings, but there are also many advantages.

After Zhang Xiu's mentality was adjusted, he asked Jia Xu again: "Wenhe, how do you think Cao Junhe will withdraw from the army?" ”

Jia Xu listened, nodded and smiled: "The best strategy for retreating is naturally the golden cicada to get out of its shell, the lord's army is now far above the Cao army, and it will take a day for the Cao army to retreat to Chenliu at the earliest." Therefore, as long as the lord sees through Cao Jun's shell within half a day, he will have a chance to defeat Cao Jun. ”

After a pause, Jia Xu continued: "Of course, this is just a strategy to break the enemy, and the best strategy is to see through Cao Han's shell, and then hit his cicada in one fell swoop!" Zhang Xiu heard this, frowned and said to himself: "To hit its cicada in one fell swoop, it is a lot of difficulty." ”

The horse next to him was in a fog, and finally heard a little depressed in his heart, and said: "It doesn't matter what cicada he is, even the cicada with the shell will be surrounded and beaten in one fell swoop!" ”

I don't know if Ma's sentence is because of the flash of inspiration that causes the fool to have a thousand worries or other reasons, but after Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu heard it, their eyes lit up. Zhang Xiu even clapped his hands and laughed: "Meng Qi said it well!" It doesn't matter what cicada he is, just fence it up and leave! ”

Jia Xu also nodded and said: "What Meng Qi said is reasonable, now that our army has the upper hand, the enemy army is declining" It is a good strategy to surround and storm it!" However, in today's battle, the soldiers are tired, and the lord sent a small number of soldiers to patrol back and forth outside the Cao army's camp, not letting the Cao army leave, and waving the army to attack again tomorrow morning! ”

Zhang Xiu heard this, nodded and said, "Very good." Huaxiong, you arranged for manpower to patrol the Cao army camp back and forth overnight, and counted our army personnel every quarter of an hour. If you lose contact now, immediately notify the general, and don't let Cao Jun leave tonight! Hua Xiong heard it and promised loudly.

Zhang Xiu rested quietly in the tent all night, and Hua Xiong did not send anyone to disturb him. It wasn't until after dawn that Zhang Xiu woke up, Zhang Xiu hurriedly asked Hua Xiong about the situation last night, but the inspectors were not lost, and Cao Jun did not leave.

When Zhang Xiu heard this, he hurriedly called Jia Xu and the others, and after explaining the situation, Zhang Xiu continued: "Isn't it that Cao Jun wants to hold on and wait for help?" ”

Jia Xu listened, but only pondered and did not answer. And Ma shouted: "Why should the lord pay attention, then Cao Jun has not left, and whether he is stubborn or not waiting for reinforcements, even if the reinforcements are coming, it will take a while." Now that Cao's army is demoralized, our army only needs to break the camp and leave. ”

Jia Xu couldn't figure it out after thinking about it, and when he saw Zhang Xiu waiting for him to reply, he said: "What Meng Qi said is not unreasonable. Besides, our army does not know the situation of the enemy army now, and we will talk about it after fighting. ”

Zhang Xiu nodded when she heard this, and asked Ma, Hu Che'er, and Zhou Cangsan to go out to order troops, and he and Jia Xu followed out. But it was Jia Xu who wanted to take a look at Cao Jun's situation and went to the front line with Zhang Xiu to watch.

Cao's army has been in the village for a long time, so this camp is also strong, and there are 100,000 troops in the previous tun, so this camp is huge, and it is not comparable to the camp that was created overnight when Zhang Shao was defeated. However, Zhang Xiu has long been concerned about this, and Zhang Xiu has ordered someone to build a rushing car during the previous confrontation, which is also Zhang Xiu's early preparations, if he can't force Cao Jun to go out of the battle, he will have to rely on these sharp weapons to break the village.

And at this time, such a sharp weapon as rushing the car is used. Zhang Xiu was also reluctant to let Qianghu Tieqi dismount as a foot pawn to attack the camp, and if he did so, Qianghu Tieqi would inevitably suffer heavy losses.

Zhang Xiu naturally had Zhang Xiu's method, which was to let Hu Che'er and Zhou Cang lead the remaining eight hundred Pangulis to dismount and push three rushing carts to attack the camp. Eight hundred Pangulis were dressed in heavy armor, and they were not afraid of bows and arrows at all, and the chariot was also covered with wettable cowhide, and a simple rocket could not burn the chariot. Even if you pour fire oil, the effect is not great, and the wet cowhide makes the fire not burn at all.

This method is to attack the camp can be used, if it is a siege, the enemy is blocked by sand and stones behind the city gate, even if you use a rushing car, you will not be able to break through the city gate for more than ten days. However, when attacking the camp, this method was very effective, and although the camp gate was strong, it was helpless in the face of the rushing car, and the camp gate was breached in less than an hour.

Seeing that the camp gate was broken, Ma was about to rush in with Qianghu Tieqi, but Jia Xu, who had been silent, suddenly stopped: "Meng Qi and stop!" When Ma heard this, he wondered, "How is the sir?" ”

Jia Xu looked at the camp with a smile and said, "Now only half of the Cao army is in the camp, and I am afraid that it is in the camp of the Chinese army. There were almost no Cao troops in the camp before the rain, and the front camp was left vacant for fear that the enemy would want to attack with fire. ”

Zhang Xiu heard this, raised her eyebrows, and nodded: "But it is possible." Meng Qi and don't attack, let Lao Hu and Lao Zhou go first, Pangulishi is wearing iron armor and is not afraid of fire. If the enemy attacks with fire, they will be able to escape before the fire is completely ignited, and they will suffer heavy losses if they are replaced by ordinary soldiers.

Jia Xu nodded and said, "What the lord said is extremely true. If you want to attack, you only need to wait for Pangulishi to break the camp gate of the Chinese army's camp, and our army can directly rush to the Chinese army to kill the enemy, and it is not too late to advance at this time.

Zhang Xiu nodded, didn't let the army move lightly, and watched the Pangulis cart rush into the camp camp with everyone outside the camp gate.
