Chapter 355: Hundreds of Thousands of Coalition Troops!
"How's it going in the city?"
Outside Luoyang City, inside Cao Jun's military tent.
Cao Cao was dusty, with red and swollen messes, which were blown out by the cold wind, took a sip of hot tea, looked at Cao Ren and asked.
"Zhang Liao and Gao Shun have already fortified, I have seen the defense set up by these two people, these two people are brave and strategic, they are by no means vulgar, although there are only 10,000 people in the city, but it is not easy to capture."
Cao Ren's expression was solemn and he said in a deep voice.
The teacup was slowly put down, and Cao Cao looked at Cao Ren and said, "Have you ever thought of a solution?" Luoyang must exert pressure, otherwise Chu Feng will not make a desperate bet and see the determination of our army. β
"I've thought about it, but most of our army are cavalry pretending to be infantry, and the siege will cause heavy losses." Cao Ren bowed his head in shame, he had followed Cao Cao to fight in the south and north for more than ten years, but at this moment he couldn't think of a better solution.
"Stupid, stupid!"
"You've been following me for more than ten years, and you're still thinking about hitting the enemy's strengths with your own shortcomings. Since our army has a lot of cavalry, we will continue to build momentum until Chu Feng comes with all his strength and strangles Chu Feng. β
Cao Cao narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice.
"Please also inform the Lord!" Cao Ren bowed his head in shame, he didn't know how to do it, which may also be the reason why Cao Ren can only be regarded as a general but it is difficult to become a coach of one side.
Cao Cao has been cultivating for so many years, but he still lacks the realm of vision.
Cao Cao glanced at Cao Ren with hatred of iron and steel, and immediately pondered slightly: "In this way, the battalion is in full swing to build siege equipment, and at the same time, every night the soldiers are arranged to go west, and the next day they return at dawn, pretending to be reinforcements,"
"In this way, pressure Gao Shun and Zhang Liao in the city, and let them urge Chu Feng to act faster."
Cao Cao explained.
"Lord's clever plan!" Cao Ren nodded immediately.
"Hmph, what did Yuan Shao say over there?" Cao Cao picked up the teacup again to keep warm, and asked tentatively.
"Back to the lord, it is said that Yuan Shao gathered a heavy army, and his relatives led the cavalry to Puyang to meet the LΓΌ Meng army, and in addition, the third son Yuan Shang led the army to Gaotang in Qingzhou to fight a decisive battle with Huang Zhong."
"And according to the news of the scout, Yuan Shao has colluded with Wuhuan and the Xiongnu, and wants to lead the two south, and it is estimated that when the weather in the north warms up, the Wuhuan Xiongnu will send troops."
Cao Ren's expression was solemn, and he reported in a deep voice.
Hearing this, Cao Cao's action of drinking tea paused, and the fingers holding the tea cup became white, Yuan Shao really did anything to win, and immediately asked: "Do you know how many troops the two will send?" β
"I don't know for the time being, but with the cooperation between Wuhuan and Yuan Shao earlier, coupled with the current situation of the Xiongnu, the two sides will send at least more than 150,000 troops, or it will form a crushing trend."
Cao Ren also said solemnly.
The dispute in the Central Plains mainly depends on the cavalry, although they have no shortage of war horses after taking Xiliang, but the tens of thousands of cavalry are nearly 100,000 worse than the Wuhuan Huns found by Yuan Shao.
"My lord, if this battle develops to that point, I'm afraid it won't be beneficial to our army." Guo Jia, the military advisor of the army, frowned and said in a deep voice, although Cao Cao's goal was Yizhou, he was also worried about the great change in the situation in the Central Plains in this battle.
"What do you think?" Cao Cao asked rhetorically.
"Lord, there is not much that our army can rely on, if Yuan Shao breaks through Chu Feng head-on, I'm afraid..."Guo Jia was a little worried, and then smiled with relief: "Of course, Chu Feng is not good at stubble. β
"The monsters equipped by the Chu army are enough to deter the enemy's iron cavalry." Guo Jia has always been suspicious of Yuan Jun's combat strength, especially in the earlier battle, Yuan Shao's main elite was almost wiped out.
"Having said that, the monster of the Chu army is also a great threat to our army, have you ever studied how to deal with this thing?" Cao Cao took a deep breath with a little impatience.
He's heard of monsters,
Now he relies on the Xiliang Iron Cavalry in addition to the Qingzhou soldiers, to put it bluntly, he mainly relies on the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, if the Xiliang Iron Cavalry can't play, then he is also not Chu Feng's opponent.
"At present, according to the inference, it can only be used to stuff the war horse with rags before the war to reduce the panic caused by the sound of the explosion, but fortunately, this thing is not lethal, otherwise it will be difficult to win."
Guo Jia analyzed it and also sighed.
Chu Feng didn't mention his other skills, just studying these strange things is indeed a lot, and each of the key ones is extremely amazing, and there are unexpected effects, which is embarrassing.
Cao Cao frowned and did not speak.
This kind of precautionary means is not a kind of helplessness.
At this moment, Ma Chao, who had been silent for a long time, clenched his fists and said: "Lord, why worry so much, as long as Chu Feng dares to come, the last general will lead his troops and horses to behead him under the horse." β
Cao Ren: "!
οΌ β
The corners of Cao Ren's mouth twitched, this young man really didn't know the height of the sky, if he had seen Chu Feng's bravery, he would never dare to say this, when Cao Cao captured Shouchun, Chu Feng was stunned to lead the soldiers and horses to chisel through the army formation, forcing Cao Cao to retreat,
In terms of this bravery, I am afraid that the overlord of the year can be compared with it.
Sun Ce on the side, a little worried,
He glanced at Ma Chao with a strange gaze, he had naturally fought with Ma Chao during this time, and knew that Ma Chao's martial arts were good, and he was even much stronger than himself, but he was still too far behind Chu Feng.
"Meng Qi, Chu Feng is not alone!" Sun Ce said in a dejected tone, thinking that at the beginning, he also thought that Chu Feng was just Erer, but after some contact, he found that he was wrong,
He united with his generals to fight against Chu Feng, but he was killed a lot, and this kind of combat power was far beyond Ma Chao's.
"Bo Fu, it's not the first time you've said this, I'm curious, what did Chu Feng do in the first place to make you so jealous of him, could it be that he is an immortal?"
Ma Chao was reckless and not convinced at all.
Unless he personally defeated Chu Feng's men.
"Huh!" Sun Ce shook his head, Chu Feng was the opponent he hated and feared, this person seemed to him to be like an immortal, and all he had in front of him was a sense of powerlessness.
"Meng Qi, you remember, all those who have not fought with Chu Feng will shout, and all those who have fought with Chu Feng are just afraid, here is not only his personal ability, but also the armor soldiers under his command."
At this point, Cao Ren and other generals nodded one after another.
They are really not false at all when they beat other people, but when they beat Chu Feng, it was like being tied hands, and they were not opponents at all.
"Then when Chu Feng arrives, I'll have to fight him even more." Ma Chao was eager to try, the more awesome he was, the more he looked forward to it, after all, he had no opponent in Xiliang, and he didn't feel anything. γ
Seeing Ma Chao like this, everyone was a little helpless.
In the following time, Cao Cao brushed his presence outside Luoyang City every day, and at the same time, the camp was also hotly building siege equipment, and there were thousands of reinforcements in the direction of Tongguan every day.
This made Zhang Liao and Gao Shun anxious.
ββββ
A few days later, the city of Luoyang.
Early in the morning, Gao Shun and Zhang Liao had already stood at the head of the city, looking at the reinforcements coming from a distance, their faces were solemn, which was also a blow to the morale of the defenders in the city.
"This is the third batch of reinforcements!" Zhang Liao said in a deep voice.
"Well, it seems that Cao Cao's side really wants to move, and according to the news from Lu Meng, Yuan Shao has also gathered nearly 100,000 troops in Puyang, and there is also news that Wuhuan and Xiongnu will send troops."
Gao Shun held the head of the city, and his expression fell into solemnity.
They had already thought about this battle, but now the feeling of the storm was overwhelming them, and the two were united, Yuan Shao even connived at Wuhuan and the Xiongnu to enter the country.
I am afraid that the coalition forces of all parties will gather all their troops and horses, and it will not be less than three or four hundred thousand.
"Bang!"
Zhang Liao hammered down the battlements of the city wall.
"A group of selfish wastes, for their own interests, do not care about the life or death of the Han people, and even collude with foreign races to trample on their own homeland, these princes are in vain!"
Zhang Liao angrily reprimanded, what he hated most was the Huns, but Yuan Shao did not hesitate to collude with these people for the sake of victory.
"Today, in addition to the lord, how many people look at the people in their eyes?" Gao Shun sneered, and also looked at the sky, it was Chu Feng's figure: "It is enough to follow the lord in this life!" β
"Not to mention hundreds of thousands of coalition troops, even if it is millions, I Gao Shun is not afraid, even if I die, I still have no regrets. I just hope to share some more pressure on the lord. Gao Shun's eyes were deep and sonorous.
Zhang Liao nodded, he was born in the bitter cold of the frontier, and I have to say that what Chu Feng did did give them a belief in addition to making meritorious contributions to take care of their wives and daughters.
That responsibility, that sense of honor!
This is something he has never followed Ding Yuan, He Jin, Dong Zhuo, and Lu Bu.
"Haha, Peping, rest assured, you and I will definitely be able to follow the lord until the unification of the Han Dynasty, but the lord said that after the unification of the Han Dynasty, I will expand the territory, I still want to go down in history, how can I fall here!"
Zhang Liao opened his mouth heartily, and suddenly the countless Cao Jun outside the city were not so terrifying, but made them a little more heroic, even if they died in Kang, it was not enough to worry about it.
Immediately, the two pondered the strategy against the enemy, and they kept sending scouts to inform Cao Jun of the situation.
ββββ
On the other side, on the dilapidated road.
Gatoni is returning with a group of personal soldiers with Jiang Gan, and he didn't plan to let Gatoni go over in the original life, but thinking about it later, Gatoni knows about Chu Feng's situation,
Let him go, maybe it will work wonders.
Of course, there are also people who fanned the wind in his ears, after all, Gatony's power is getting heavier and heavier, and naturally it has moved the cake of some people, and it is not a bad thing to be transferred for a while.
"Ahh
"Damn, you have to let me go!" In the carriage, Gatoni kept muttering, he beat 10,000 people who didn't want to come, and he didn't know which villain with a broken mouth admonished him.
He knows that this Cao Cao is not good at stubble.
However, since the first life agreed to let him over, it also means that his role in the first life is weakening now, there is no way, it is true, his advantage is nothing more than cognition and knowledge.
The use of knowledge is becoming more and more limited,
Foresight also became useless as it unfolded everywhere.
It can only be said that whether he can save the dog's life depends on how he communicates with Cao Cao.
ββββ
The sixth year of Jian'an, mid-February.
Spring has arrived, and the snow and ice have already melted.
Everything recovers, but in Yuzhou and even Yanzhou, but it is still depressed, desolate and inhumane, there is no rooster crow for hundreds of miles, sad, lamentable, bones that can be seen everywhere along the way,
And this marching army is the Chu army, and Chu Feng personally led the army.
He didn't plan to come over in person, but Zhang Liao and Gao Shun wrote many times, and Cao Cao also passed, so he had to wonder if he had misjudged, so he had to go out in person.
The marching corps, 20,000 people of the Central Army, 20,000 of Zhang He's corps, 5,000 of Zhao Yun's cavalry corps, 20,000 Lusu corps, and the Tiger Guards, totaling about 70,000 people.
It can be regarded as the vast majority of the soldiers and horses that Chu Feng can dispatch.
Unless the auxiliaries in Jingzhou, Yangzhou and other places are also brought.
At the same time, there are 10,000 boat divisions responsible for logistics, and there are many water systems in the Huaihe River basin that directly lead to the hinterland of the Central Plains, which can relieve the logistical pressure, otherwise it will be difficult for so many soldiers and horses to go on an expedition.
Hefei was handed over to Lu Xun, Tai Shici, and Qiao Rui to stay.
There are many new soldiers under Lu Xun, and there is no way to go to the battlefield, and most of the soldiers and horses under Tai Shici are veterans, and it is more than enough to defend Hefei.
And in this battle, the military division of the army, Jia Xu, and Lu Su are half of them, after all, he also has to lead the army, and the generals of the army, Zhao Yun, Xu Chu, Zhang Xiu, Hu Cheer, Zhang He, Zhu Huan, etc.
On the chariot, Chu Feng slowly opened his eyes,
"Zhao Yun, where is this?" Chu Feng asked.
"Back to the lord, I have already arrived in Yingyang, and it won't be long before I can go out of Yingchuan and arrive in Luoyang, at most one or two hundred miles!" Zhao Yun clenched his fists and said in a deep voice.
"Turn around, to Kaifeng!" Chu Feng pondered slightly, and immediately spoke.
"Lord, why is that? General Gao, they have been asking for help for days, and they are turning to Kaifeng at this moment, isn't it..."Zhao Yun hurriedly asked, with a little doubt.
Jia Xu next to him narrowed the corners of his eyes, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and asked: "Lord, do you want to be stationed in Kaifeng so that you can take care of the entire battle situation?" β
Chu Feng nodded and said in a deep voice: "Even if our army counts the cavalry of the Central Army, it is only eight thousand iron cavalry, and Cao Cao has tens of thousands of iron cavalry in Xiliang, since he is approaching Luoyang this time, there is no need to rush to come." β
When Lu Su heard this, he also nodded and said: "The lord is extremely worried, and he boldly advances to Luoyang but falls into the downwind, and is constrained by the Cao army's iron cavalry everywhere, but if it is stationed in Kaifeng, the Cao army is not only afraid, but also does not dare to attack Luoyang." β
Jia Xu also agrees,
Chu Feng's tactical layout is becoming more and more proficient now.
Exploiting strengths and avoiding weaknesses, this application is definitely stronger than that of the vast majority of military experts.
"In this way, the herald Gao Shun and Zhang Liao said that the reinforcements are in Kaifeng, so that they must be careful and careful, once Cao Cao attacks, our army can arrive in three days and nights."
Chu Feng immediately complained.
"No!" The guards immediately responded.
"In addition, send someone to inform Lu Meng that my Kaifeng is only a hundred miles away from Puyang, so that he has no scruples, and our army can also support at any time." Chu Feng said in a deep voice.
"No!" The guards are also under the order.
"By the way, I heard that Wuhuan and the Xiongnu are going to send troops south, this news must be sent to find out how many people and horses, this time, I must let this group of aliens bury here!"
Chu Feng's voice was fierce, and he was also even more annoyed by Yuan Shao,
This fool actually communicated with different races one after another for the sake of victory, which is simply a shame for the big man.
"Don't worry, my lord, I have asked the dark department to inquire more, but at present, the Xiongnu Wuhuan may gather more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, which is not optimistic!" Jia Xu answered, and said in a solemn voice.
"Then save me a lot of killing!"
