The army marched westward, and soon followed Bianshui to the southwest of Xingyang. --

Cao Jun's intention this time is very obvious, that is, to rush into Chenggao and take this fortified city in one fell swoop.

Chenggao is located behind the Tiger Prison Pass and Xingyang, and just forms a triangular defense system. Moreover, there are not many garrisons in Chenggao, and once they are captured, they will be able to cut off the grain routes of the 100,000-strong army in Hugao Pass and Xingyang, so that they will be exposed to the enemy on their backs.

Bao Xin has exhausted the whole army, with 3,000 elite cavalry and more than 10,000 foot soldiers, a total of more than 20,000. Moreover, Zhang Miao was hindered by Cao Cao's pleading, so he reluctantly allocated 3,000 foot soldiers to Wei Zi, plus the 5,000 men and horses of Cao Cao's headquarters, there were 30,000 people.

Several veterans of Liu Yijun were nervous in their hearts, after all, this was a big battlefield of tens of thousands of people, and no one could guarantee that they would survive.

"No wonder those guys didn't choose Cao Cao's camp, they were all afraid of death!" Pan Wei has said similar whining words more than once. If it weren't for the fact that the army had already been mobilized, he would have found an opportunity to escape.

Lin Tao, Xiaoma and the others were dejected, they were still secretly happy that others didn't know how to follow Cao Cao to reap the benefits, and actually joined the camp of those ordinary heroes, after all, Cao Cao was the overlord who unified the Northern Central Plains in the future. But now, they understand why the huge Cao army camp was only a few people before, and it turned out that those guys had already known that Cao Cao would go to war with the Xiliang army.

"Gao Heng, you can obviously talk to Cao Cao, why don't you stop it?" Da Qiang was also anxious, and his speech was a little less polite, "30,000 against 100,000, isn't this a clear death?" ”

"What are you afraid of, now Cao Jun's power is much stronger than before, not only have the three major strategists Xun Yu, Xun You, and Xi Zhicai, but also have more fierce generals Dian Wei." Jing Yuan said coldly.

"In this world, there is no risk in doing anything, and the greater the risk, the greater the return, don't you understand? Even if he loses the battle, the Juggernaut will definitely have more ratings than hiding in the sour jujube camp. ”

Gao Heng coldly glanced at these newly accepted veterans, and was very disappointed in his heart, except for Liu Yijun, who could barely see it, the performance of the others was nothing eye-catching. Since he doesn't have much use value, he doesn't plan to team up with these people in the future, and directly use them as cannon fodder.

Liu Yijun's face was embarrassed, knowing that the performance of his greed for life and fear of death must have made Gao Heng very dissatisfied.

"Actually, the situation is not so bad, after all, we are arranged in the rear army, protecting grain, grass, baggage and siege equipment." Zhen Xiaohe's words made the minds of those veterans somewhat calmer, after all, the rear army was located behind the array, even if the large army in front was defeated, there would be more opportunities to escape.

At this moment, Dian Wei, who had broad shoulders and a round waist, walked over with big eyes and a loud voice.

"Gao Sima, how is the military spirit? If there is a person who escapes from the battle or is cowardly before fighting and shakes the morale of the army with words, behead! ”

Pan Wei's face turned white with fright, it seemed that he had said a lot of complaints just now, there must have been cowardice before the battle, but deliberately shaking the morale of the army or something, these veterans had never thought about it. After all, he has been in Cao Jun's camp for a few months, and he knows that Cao Boss's military law is strict.

"Okay." Gao Heng didn't plan to use Pan Wei's head to sacrifice the knife, then looked at Dian Wei and asked, "Captain Dian, but is there something?" ”

Dian Wei's actual position is Sima of the Zuo Army, the captain of the battle, and among the generals and colonels of the Cao Army, he has been able to enter the top five ranks.

The army marched westward, and soon followed Bianshui to the southwest of Xingyang.
