Chapter 294: The two armies face each other

Both sides have defined their own strategies and are implementing them in accordance with the general direction of their strategies.

Yu Ban first sent Xu Chu and ordered him to lead 3,000 cavalry to Guan Yu's camp to challenge.

And Guan Yu had already waited for Cao Jun to come to challenge, and according to Zhang Xi's suggestion, Guan Yu did not directly go out to fight Xu Chu, but sent his son Guan Ping, leading 5,000 foot soldiers, to intercept Xu Chu halfway.

Xu Chu was inexperienced on the battlefield in the end, and when he saw the word "Guan" on Guan Ping's flag, he thought that Guan Yu was coming in person, so he immediately cheered up, snorted, and immediately led the cavalry to charge.

Guan Ping was not stable at that time, and he was originally here to "send", when he saw Xu Chu rushing towards him, he had no intention of fighting, so he quickly led his troops to retreat.

However, Guan Ping lacks experience on the battlefield in the end, and the soldiers have not yet established themselves in the positional battle, and the sudden issuance of a retreat order at this time will cause confusion among the soldiers and soldiers, resulting in the untimely transmission of military orders.

Then, Guan Ping was really defeated.

The deception turned into a real defeat, and less than 3,000 of the 5,000 people who went out came back, nearly half of which were lost.

Guan Yu was angry, and scolded Guan Ping for a long time, and Zhang Xi, who was scolding, listened too much, and hurriedly entered the camp to persuade Guan Yu.

Don't scold, according to the second master's scolding method, Guan Ping's confidence in leading the troops to fight in the future will be scolded.

But Guan Yu really hates iron and steel.

After fighting with yourself for so long, you can still make such a basic mistake. He Xu Chu has already led the cavalry to rush over, even if your task is to lose, at this time, you should let the shield soldiers and pikemen rush forward to build a defensive position, and then lead the other soldiers to slowly retreat.

As soon as someone rushes, you will order to retreat.

This is not a fraud at all, it is really defeated by someone who has been washed away.

Not to mention the loss of two thousand people. We can't compare to the Cao Cao family's great cause, do you know how much money it costs to recruit and train 2,000 people? !

Hawkers, when the second master said this, Zhang Xi was a little difficult to persuade.

Indeed, Guan Ping is also in his thirties this year, and he is not a child anymore.

Zhang Xi can only persuade the second master from another angle, although he is defeated this time, but we are going to lose this time, such a failure also seems real, so that Xu Chu can be fooled.

It's okay not to say this, but as soon as I say this, the second master starts to get angry again.

Indeed, it is an era of war, and the second master also knows the truth that Ci is not in charge of the army.

The two armies are facing each other, and there are casualties among each other, although the second master doesn't want to, but it really happens, and the second master won't deliberately ask for anything.

But this time it was different, this time it was Guan Ping's command error, which caused unnecessary casualties among the soldiers.

In other words, the loss of 2,000 people this time was fundamentally caused by Guan Ping's incompetence, which made Guan Yu not angry.

Although the second master despised the scholars, he was really good to the soldiers, and Guan Ping's misresponse this time was absolutely unforgivable in Guan Yu's opinion.

Yes, the second master had almost trained him, and he was about to end Zhang Xi's persuasion, but the second master scolded him again.

provoked Zhang Xi to look at Guan Ping's resentful eyes, and he was not a person inside and out.

On the other side, in Cao's military camp, there is also a person who was kindly regarded as a donkey's liver and lungs.

This person is forbidden.

During the day, Xu Chu led 3,000 cavalry to battle, but Yu Ban was not at ease, so he personally led 5,000 foot soldiers as a response.

As a result, Xu Chu defeated Guan Ping, the son of Guan Yu, in a battle, beheaded hundreds and captured nearly 1,000 people.

This is a big victory, Yu Ban is also happy for Xu Chu, with this victory at the bottom, after repelling Guan Yu in the future, Cao Cao also said to Xu Chu that the marquis was in the past.

But Xu Chu didn't expect so much at this time, he was killing the rise, and he was rushing all over the field to harvest the enemy soldiers.

Then, Yu Ban looked a little wrong.

In order to make Xu Chu meritorious in the first battle, Yu Ban led Xu Chu with the elite cavalry of the Cao army.

Cavalry is a thing that pays attention to speed and action, and also pays attention to mobility in combat. The cavalry led by Xu Zhu now has no formation at all, and they are all running around on the battlefield in groups of three or two, and some people even dismount to fight on foot in order to grab the flags and other trophies.

What the hell is this cavalry?!

Or, is this a cavalry under the command of Xu Chu?!

Looking at Xu Chu himself, he didn't realize that the cavalry he led had dispersed the formation, nor did he have any intention of commanding the battle, just a person who was happy on the battlefield, relying on his own force to rush and kill, and even as the main general of the first army, he himself had rushed to the front of all the cavalry, and was desperately chasing Guan Ping, who was retreating.

If Guan Yu had an ambush or a team to respond, Xu Chu would not dare to think about the consequences of hitting his head.

In order not to let Xu Chu be in danger, and in order to prevent Xu Chu from turning from a big victory to a big defeat, Yu Ban hurriedly withdrew his troops.

Beating the drum and marching, Mingjin and retreating, it is a military order on the battlefield, and as soon as the ban is sounding gold, the cavalry are also assembled in situ, ready to retreat.

Xu Chu, it can be said that he is quite unhappy, the rise of killing, and he is about to catch up with that "Guan Yu", why is it that at this time, Yu Ban is Mingjin?!

But Xu Chu is a person who has been following Cao Cao all the year round, and he knows the importance of military orders, so he did not continue to spread joy, but followed the war horse and returned to the camp unwillingly.

As soon as he returned to the camp, Xu Chu went to ask Yu Ban, why did Ming Jin suddenly withdraw his troops?!

"Why did Wen Ze suddenly sing gold?! A certain one is waiting to kill and disperse the enemy soldiers, and capture Guan Yu alive to repay the great kindness of the king of Wei. Wen Ze doesn't want a certain family to make this contribution?! ”

Facing Xu Chu's questioning, Yu Ban was very unhappy.

Anyway, I'm the chief general in the army, am I Mingjin, do I need a guard from you to question?!

But the two have always known each other for many years, Yu Ban still endured this breath, patiently explained, and said, "Zhong Kang, don't be annoyed, listen to something." This time, the person who came, it was not Yuye, but Yuzi Guan Pinger. Moreover, this time Zhongkang broke the enemy army, it is already a great achievement, if Guan Yu set up an ambush halfway, will not damage Zhongkang's prestige, so a certain Mingjin to withdraw troops is the name of Zhongkang. ”

It's not easy to ban it, coaxing Xu Chu like a child.

After all, Yu Ban can't say that this is a good thing, just take care of killing yourself, the group of cavalry under your command are all scattered, and there is no formation anymore.

At this time, just come out with an organized army, and you can be easily cleaned up.

Similarly, Yu Ban also understood a truth - Xu Chu really can't command soldiers to fight, whether it is cavalry or infantry, in his eyes, there is no such thing as commanding battles, he will take the lead in rushing.

It's just that Yu Ban still has to use this person as a pioneer, Yu Ban really feels tired.

But Xu Chu couldn't understand Yu Ban's tiredness, but he felt that Yu Ban had a problem.

"You have also been a war general for many years, why are you so timid?!" Xu Chu said to the ban, "A certain ignorant in the past, so he didn't dare to speak, today is about to fight, the enemy army will collapse at the first touch, like such a weak soldier, even if there is an ambush, what is there to fear?!" A certain family only needs to rush and kill, and it will definitely be able to break the enemy and win. So careful and suspicious, how to use soldiers?! ”

Eh, I'll go!!

Yu Ban was so angry, he was actually reprimanded by a guard, saying that he didn't know how to use soldiers?!

No wonder King Wei has never let this Xu Chu go to the battlefield, with his brain, it is a matter of minutes to be played to death.

Yu Ban was really angry and wanted to go back. But forget it after thinking about it, this is King Wei's close attendant, and he came here to mix qualifications and merits, so he can't be in a hurry with this kind of person.

Anyway, with this credit, you can also explain it to King Wei, and it's a big deal to provide it later, so why offend.

Yu Ban said a few good words, which was regarded as coaxing Xu Chu, sending him back to his camp to rest, and then began to think about how to defeat Guan Yu.

But before he could think of a good solution, God began to rain again.

It's not raining, but it's not small, and it's two days at once. In this kind of weather, it is impossible to use troops.

Fortunately, it only rained for two days, and the rain stopped for the time being, and Yu Ban was wondering if he was going to raise troops to attack Guan Yu's camp.

As a result, at this time, Guan Yu led the troops by himself and came to challenge in front of the forbidden military village.

What else can be said then, the two armies lined up and started fighting.

However, before the start of the battle, Yu Ban sent a herald and asked him to go to Fancheng to inform Man Chong, and if possible, let Man Chong in Fancheng send troops to threaten the flank of Guan Yu's army at the right time.

If Guan Yu can be defeated in the field battle, then the siege of Fancheng will naturally be solved, and Man Pet will not have to worry about defending the city.

After that, Yu Banqin led a large army to the plains and confronted Guan Yu.

This time, Yu Ban sat in the Chinese army, and the striker was not Xu Chu, but Zhu Ling, another general brought by Yu Ban.

There is no way, this time the two armies are facing each other, and the opponent is the famous general Guan Yu, Yu Ban doesn't dare to let the disobedient Xu Chu be the pioneer anymore.

Although Zhu Ling is not a good person, after all, he has followed Cao Cao for a long time, and he was also a commander in his early years, at least compared to Xu Chu, it is much more reassuring.

And Guan Yu's side, the Chinese army is naturally Guan Yu himself, the forward is Zhang Wei, the left army is Liaohua, the right army is Guan Ping, and Zhang Xi is in the base camp.

Although the purpose of this battle is also to lose, Guan Yu doesn't want to be like Guan Ping again, from a blit to a real defeat.

Again, Guan Yu also hopes to use his reputation to stimulate Xu Chu and make the contradiction between Xu Chu and Yu Ban even more intense.

But what Guan Yu didn't expect was that this time the vanguard of the forbidden army was not Xu Chu, but his old opponent Zhu Ling. Xu Chu was in the left army, not in the front army.

Guan Yu looked at this situation, then he was not welcome.

With a wave of the military flag, Zhang Wei rushed forward and broke his wrist with Zhu Ling first.

And Zhu Ling, Zhu Ling also commanded the former sergeant to come forward to engage in battle.

In Zhu Ling's opinion, this is just a decent outpost.

It doesn't matter what the front army is like, he just acted on orders, waiting for Yu Ban's next dispatch, and he didn't want to command the front army to make contributions.

After all, Zhu Ling is a person, his life experience is simply well, a little difficult to say.
