The big war is imminent, and the coach in front of the battle naturally wants to play the game, according to the fact that the army is arranging the Chinese army to attack, so the two of them will definitely not miss it.

When it was almost noon, Cao Cao had come out of the army alone, and when he went to the front of the two armies, he invited Yuan Shao to come out and talk about it, of course Yuan Shao would not refuse this kind of thing, after all, it must be a battle that will be famous in history, and no one wants to miss it.

I haven't seen him for many years, and when I see each other again today, it's already a thing or a person, Cao Cao urged the horse forward, looked left and right a few times in the distance, as if he was looking at the scenery, Yuan Shao came with a pout, and he was also very generous on horseback, with a proud expression, serious and upright, in short, there was no Cao Cao's relaxed meaning.

Of course he also wanted to relax, but unfortunately he actually hated it to the extreme in his heart, thinking of the beginning, he suddenly sneered, "Hehe, Cao Mengde, you were originally promoted by my Dongjun land, I was kind to you back then, and I didn't want to reciprocate and actually raised troops to attack me, and your family is a man who eats Hanlu, but now he is sitting on the Son of Heaven, coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, disobedient, disrespectful and disrespectful, can you feel a little guilty in your heart?" Now you dare to ask me to come here? ”

Cao Cao laughed, immediately lowered his voice, and said, "Now it's just you and me, why do you need to talk like this?" I just thought that the war was imminent, and you and I should really talk about the old days, at least follow the example of those rangers, cut off their robes, and then go to fight. ”

"Humph!"

Yuan Shao smiled contemptuously, "What other relationship do I have with you?" The love has long been exhausted, Cao Cao, you don't think that if you kill me Yan Liang and Wen Chou, I will still be friends with you, right? ”

"I, Jizhou civil and military, are all people who hate you, the scholars are not with you, I naturally think that the family background is noble, and I will not say much to you, save it!"

"I thought you were here to make peace with me."

"Summation?!"

Cao Cao leaned forward in astonishment, the smile on his face gradually bloomed like a flower, and said contemptuously: "Why do I want to make peace with you? Hehehe, I'm afraid that I'm doing too much of the Spring and Autumn Dream in Jizhou, and he has been defeated one after another, but he is still so arrogant and rude, who do you see that person is?"

He turned around and pointed, Yuan Shao looked in the direction Cao Cao pointed, and saw Guo Jiazheng, who was wearing a black robe and a bun, looking at this side with a cold face, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he already remembered this person in his heart, but he refused to say it, just snorted coldly and shook his head, "I don't know." ”

"You don't know?"

Cao Cao smiled stunned and said, "This is the person who was driven away by you." ”

"Do you know who the minister of internal affairs under my command is, who is the current Han Shang Shuling?"

"Xun Yu, Xun Wenruo."

"Yes, I don't want to be with you, I came to vote when I started in Yanzhou, and I will tell you again, one of the generals who is guarding the white horse now is your old general Zhu Ling."

"Humph!"

The corners of Yuan Shao's mouth twitched, unmoved, and said rather indifferently: "It's just a rebel general, it's not worth mentioning, if I defeat your army, he will come back sooner or later, what's the point?" ”

"Well, that's good."

Cao Cao said a few more people, which made Yuan Shao's face change quite a bit, this scene was seen in the eyes of Yuan Shao's advisers, they were all anxious, Xu You kept walking back and forth in front of the military formation, he didn't know what his lord was doing, since there was already a big war, why bother to go and Cao Cao for a long time?!

"Urge, General! Can you give me a push? ”

Xu You turned his head to look at Ju Yi, "General, you have won the favor of the lord, can you personally urge the lord and not let the lord and Cao Cao say more?" I think he's waiting for something?! This man is scheming, and he will never waste his time chatting with my lord and talking freely about the old things! ”

"This ......"

Ju Yi's beard was sparse, he was wearing a cloth scarf and a crown, he stretched out his hand and put it on his beard and smoothed it slightly, glanced left and right, many generals did not move, and they looked like they had nothing to do with themselves, and immediately smiled bitterly: "Military advisor, don't you have to worry so much, don't you see that Cao Cao is also waiting for the battle, and he has taken off the formation and talked to my lord?" ”

"Hmmm......"

Xu You still felt that something was wrong in his heart, this battle was already tense, Cao Cao couldn't always be peace, if he dragged on for time, only Xu Bowen would be waiting, and Xu Zhen had now won Yanjin, maybe he had to detour from Yanjin and hit the side of the soldiers and horses, thinking of this, he pinched his beard slightly, his expression was quite solemn, he turned his head to look at a general, and said: "Now on the east side of the soldiers and horses, arrange 6,000 volt soldiers, beware of Xu Zhen's surprise attack." ”

"Whoa!"

The general led the troops away, but Xu You's mind was still restless, and he always felt that six thousand was not enough, let alone six thousand, tens of thousands of people went to Yanjin to resist Xu Zhen, and they were not killed by him?

So while Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were still chatting deeply, and the two of them had gradually talked and laughed, they confronted each other, and then said to Ju Yi: "General, it is better to send 10,000 soldiers and horses to the east to garrison, beware of Xu Bowen's surprise attack on the rear of our army." ”

"If Cao Cao delays any longer at this moment, he must be waiting for the surprise attack of soldiers and horses, or ......"

Speaking of which, Xu You looked at Cao Cao's military array, and found that although he had many banners, the soldiers and horses were not visible at a glance, and how many people in the back were basically invisible, and the number of cavalry was not much, as a Chinese army, it was impossible to have only a few thousand war horses, he was famous for riding tigers and leopards, these years the name of benevolence and virtue in his body, and the harvest of farming in the territory could naturally be run by merchant horses, maybe there were not tens of thousands of war horses but also one or two thousand, and the soldiers and horses were not as simple as training soldiers, So Xu You had a new guess.

Cao Cao is likely to attack from the west!

"Be careful of Cao Cao's iron cavalry, I didn't see Cao Zihe's figure, this person is suspicious here, how can he hide it from me, the general will immediately send troops and horses to the east! Garrisoned on both sides and ambushed, he must have taken the opportunity to raid the rear of our army! ”

Ju Yi thought for a moment, and finally smiled helplessly: "Strategist, are you too cautious?" With such a division of troops, what if the frontal battlefield is not enough? ”

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid!" Xu You's heart tightened, and when he looked at the entire battlefield again, he pointed to the spacious plain in front of him, and said loudly: "Look, generals, this place is a plain area, soldiers and horses collide like torrents, and then the torrent flows into the valley, and it will be blocked, I am afraid that only twenty or thirty thousand soldiers and horses can spread out to fight, and it is compared to the reserve of your leading army and the persistence of the Chinese army!" ”

"As long as the Chinese army does not retreat and the reserves continue to attack, how can they be defeated by Cao Cao? He doesn't have a lot of soldiers and horses! And the only thing to guard against is that he has a frontal feint attack, a cavalry raid, once he is so successful, we will be disorganized, and the enemy will be affected on the back, which may affect the military situation of the frontal battlefield, it is my order, General Gao Ran will go to the east to garrison, and General Ju Yi will send the army to deploy and garrison to the west!! ”

"I'll have to ask Childe."

Ju Yi gave a cold answer, as if a basin of cold water was poured on the top of Xu Yu's head, which cooled the back of his heart, making him suddenly stunned.

A good sentence to ask the son, Xu You felt extremely uncomfortable at this time, Ju Yi and Guo Tu were both generals of the eldest prince Yuan Tan, and at this time Yuan Tan had already arrived at the headquarters camp and brought tens of thousands of soldiers and horses from Qingzhou to gather, but Yuan Xi failed to come from Youzhou, because Youzhou still needed a large army to defend at this time.

Xu You's eyes narrowed at this time, and he returned to his rather arrogant and arrogant style in the past, and immediately snorted and laughed, "Hehe! In such a situation, I have to ask Childe, so I don't need to ask. ”

He squinted ahead, watching Cao Cao and Yuan Shao continue to talk, and he didn't know what they were talking about, and muttered, "I hope I'm thinking too much." ”

Catching up is not a sale.

Destroy it.

Xu You's heart was pinched, he understood at this time that he couldn't call these generals with high merits, Yan Liangwen would still listen to him back then, just because those two people were vanguard generals, and now they can only command deputy generals, real generals have their own unique temperament and power, if it weren't for Yuan Shao's personal order, they generally have to judge for themselves, and Xu You also understands that the generals will not leave the frontal battlefield.

Because here the work is the greatest!

When it came to the ambush on both sides, if no enemy troops came, it was just hard work.

Sure enough, after Xu You stopped urging, Ju Yi didn't go to see Gongzi, glanced at him lightly, and didn't say anything more.

Time passed quickly, I don't know how long, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao chatted about the same, nothing happened, and they returned to the camp.

The rest of the generals squinted at Xu You, as if they were laughing at him for being too worried.

Yuan Shao's expression was a little solemn, and he immediately said in a deep voice: "Prepare to send troops!" Cao Mengde refused to surrender, he had to fight me, I really don't know where this person got the confidence to have the courage to march. ”

"Cao Mengde has changed, not only is he cunning and insidious, but now he is also arrogant and rude, kill him!"

Opposite the enemy camp, Cao Cao returned to the camp and glanced at Guo Jia, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

"Lord, what's wrong? What are you talking about? ”

"Before the big war, play with him," Cao Cao tightened his red cloak and looked away for a while, as if he was a little tired from speaking, and said, "Go and send troops." ”

"As I've said before, the longer you can fight here, the better."

"Good!"

Cao Ren got the order, immediately to the front to order the troops, at this time the three armies suddenly moved, the forward soldiers and horses for the tiger and leopard riding, fast forward, the sound of the earth-shattering shouting and killing suddenly came, the valley was shaking, the moment the front army was fighting, under the slightest touch, the Cao army had a momentum, Cao Ren sat in the middle of the army without moving, Cao Hong, Yu Ban, Xu Huang are all fierce generals, led the army to kill and won a lot, the general continued to push Yuan Shao's side, within a few hours, many times to send troops to change formations, on the unknown number of troops.

Yuan Shao's only advantage is that the types and quantities of armaments are indeed numerous, and they can constantly change, constantly meet Cao Cao's soldiers and horses, and tightly hold the formation of the Chinese army, but in the most fierce battle, Xu You's worries still came.

Cao Chun led the tiger and leopard cavalry from the west side of the trail to kill quickly, rushing to the rear side road, disrupting the layout of the Yuan army, when Xu You saw this scene, he could only close his eyes and sigh, this time the first battle is estimated to be lost, and then he has to retreat and defend, I don't know how long I have to defend to continue to wait for the fighter.

"Retreat!"

After Yuan Shao saw Cao Ren's army rushing and killing, he interspersed the Chinese army with the command of his arm, and the cavalry on the other sides was tightly guarded by him, not giving any chance to break through the military formation, and directly gave the order to retreat.

But at this time, as soon as he saw that the Yuan army had a strange movement, Cao Jun immediately pounced again, entangled and did not let him withdraw, interspersed with cavalry, and muddied the water in the melee, Cao Ren himself had an extraordinary bearing, a cold iron general armor, wearing a black tiger stripe cloak, with a serious face in the rain of arrows and fighting, with a calm bearing, walking with a shield, calm and relaxed, never panicked, and the military formation that was almost broken through many times was prevented because of his command.

Cao Cao was on the military platform, and when he saw Cao Ren's bearing, he understood that he had really grown into a general over the years, with both offense and defense.

Although it is not as treacherous and changeable as Bowen, and there is no trace of the march, he knows how to advance with the military momentum, seize the opportunity of the battlefield, and of course, benefit from the continuous push and high morale of the army, so that the soldiers and horses under his command have become victorious troops.

Cao Ren was in the land of the Chinese army, held on and advanced for three hours, and finally broke Yuan Shao's army, and the Yuan army soldiers and horses were finally able to withdraw a lot, after the army retreated, abandoned tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, Yuan Shao and many civil and military under his command, all left first, the main general withdrew, and the rest of the soldiers and horses became abandoned soldiers.

can only be caught up and killed, or surrendered and attached, the combat power collapsed in an instant, and it was difficult to fight back, and in the end, almost all the generals were desperate to kill, chasing the fleeing soldiers and horses, Cao Cao returned to the main camp early, and found a couch to sleep.

Sleeping until midnight, the generals who went out came back one after another, and the good news was that they had won a lot, almost outweighed the losses, and the armaments and horses were comparable to a year's gains, and thousands of war horses entered the camp and replenished an unknown number of armaments.

The bad news is that more than 17,000 people were lost in the battle, and although most of them were wounded and not killed, they were also extremely detrimental.

When Cao Ren came back, he immediately ordered the three armies to arrange patrols, and no one slackened, and arranged thousands of people to settle all the patrol posts within twenty miles, without giving Yuan Shao any chance, and then called Han Hao and Yu Ban to gather all the gains from the war and come to see Cao Cao.

Cao Cao opened his eyes and listened to the situation, showed a pleased smile, and said: "Zixiao has the posture of a general, which makes me more pleased than Bowen. ”

Cao Ren's face was quite surprised, and he smiled with a little emotion, but he quickly held back, but the excitement in his heart came up, his face was a little red, and after thinking for a while, he still said seriously: "If Bowen leads the army, I'm afraid it won't be lost so much." ”

Cao Cao laughed a few times, sat up and stretched, today is actually too much mind, generally speaking, in the second half of the night, there will be a feeling of head and pain, but this time there is not, quite comfortable, I feel happy, refreshed, cheerful and said: "This is not right again, it is precisely because Bowen is not there that the loss is so little, and then I am even happier that I am afraid that we can step into Jizhou with one foot, and next, Yuan Shao will be overwhelmed!" ”

"See if he still has a plan to fight back, as I said back then, all kinds of hidden dangers in Yuan Shao's army will continue to appear with the results of these few days, and our advantages will become bigger and bigger, in fact...... The battle of Cao Yuan is today's battle, we won, and great things can be done! ”

"Huh."

Cao Cao patted Cao Ren's shoulder a few times, and his expression did not hide his approval at all, not only did he rejoice in the victory in this battle, but Cao Cao was really happy that among the generals of the Cao clan, there was finally a general who could be called no less than Bowen.
