It's getting brighter, but it's still not very transparent.

West of Puyang City, on the command vehicle of the West Road of the Coalition Army.

Yuan Shao saw that the battle in the camp of the Southern Route Army was becoming more and more erosive, and finally made up his mind to send 10,000 horses to support, preparing to intercept the rear road of Sun Guan's army and annihilate it in one fell swoop.

Fu Zhu and Guo Tu were silent, but the reason for their silence was unknown.

Yuan Shao didn't pay attention to the two of them, and went straight to his own little abacus. The Southern Route Army has 20,000 horses under the command of Kong Ling, although the combat strength is average, but there are a lot of them, and the terrain of Yuzhou is abnormally rich, with sufficient grain and grass, and dense population, which is a big threat to Yuan Shao! Therefore, it is also a good choice to borrow Zhuang Shaoyou's hand to hit Kong Ling's strength hard, not to mention that when Yuan Shu went to Shouzhang, he also left 5,000 people on the South Road, if it was eaten by Zhuang Shaoyou, it would be great!

Zhuang Shaoyou waited under the west gate for an hour, and after receiving the scout's report, he immediately got up and ordered:

"It's almost time to fight in the south, it's time for us to go! Get out of the city and line up! ”

The reinforcements sent by Yuan Shao to the south of the city had just set off, and the west gate of Puyang suddenly opened, and the men and horses of the first infantry division rushed out, advancing towards Yuan Shao's camp without stopping for a moment. The sword and shield men were followed by the crossbowmen, and then the ballistae, marching and marching. In less than a quarter of an hour, the three phalanxes were combined, and the striker had advanced more than a thousand paces.

Yuan Shao, who was in the command car, looked solemn when he saw this, and hurriedly ordered:

"Quick, prepare the shield array! Reinforcements are withdrawn, no need to go! ”

"Send a signal to the east, order it to strengthen its vigilance, be careful, and don't let go of Zhuang Shaoyou's cavalry!"

"Master Wei, let your sailor attack the pier in the north of the city, you don't have to storm it, just drag Zhuang Shao's sailor and put pressure on it!"

"Gather 10,000 sword and shield men and 10,000 pikemen, and get ready to attack! Who can be a pioneer? ”

Yuan Shao's sharp gaze swept around, and everyone was silent.

"My coalition army is a wide range of soldiers, are they all a group of guts rats who have lost their reputation?!"

Chen Liutaishou Zhang Miao glanced at Cao Cao beside him when he heard this, Cao Cao hesitated for a moment, then shook his head categorically, obviously not preparing to send someone there, Zhang Miao had to sigh and stop talking.

When Yuan Shao saw this scene, he glared at Cao Cao fiercely, but Cao Cao pretended not to see him and remained silent.

Yuan Shao turned back hatefully, and then looked at Jizhou Mu Han Fu, Han Fu gritted his teeth, stepped forward and said: "Alliance leader, Wenjie Baoju is a person, he can be a pioneer!" ”

Yuan Shao's expression was slightly dark, and he asked in a soothing tone, "Who can be the pioneer?" Hurry up! ”

Han Fu immediately ordered: "Someone! Chuan will Zhang He come! ”

After a while, he hurriedly boarded the car and knelt down on one knee neatly and saluted: "The last general, Zhang He, see the leader of the alliance!" ”

Yuan Shao looked at Zhang He carefully, this Zhang He is more than eight feet tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, born with a strong force, at first glance he is a tiger general, Yuan Shao nodded with satisfaction, and said: "Sure enough, the name is well deserved!" Zhang He listens to orders! Order you to lead the vanguard to assault the position of Zhuang Shao's guerrillas! ”

"The last general commands!"

After saying that, he got out of the car without hesitation and left.

With the issuance of Yuan Shao's orders, the coalition forces began to move rapidly, nervous but not panicked, and in an orderly manner, Yuan Shao was also quite satisfied with it, and nodded frequently. At the same time, he sighed: If he could have such a man in hand when he was in Luoyang, he would definitely not have lost to Zhuang Shaoyou again and again, at least not so badly!

Whenever he recalled the past, Yuan Shao became angry, and the green tendons on his face jumped. Luoyang City was defeated three times in three battles, and was finally chased and killed by Zhuang Shaoyou's men and horses, fortunately, there is no endless road, otherwise there is no place to die now!

Shame, shame, shame!

The more Yuan Shao thought about it, the more angry he became, and the evil aura in his body unconsciously emanated, and everyone in the command car was silent.

Frustrated with courage, he stepped forward and said: "Alliance leader, if it is an assault, 20,000 horses may not be enough to defeat it!" ”

Guo Tu snorted coldly: "Jizhou's elite is invincible in the world, not to mention three times the enemy!" Don't be alarmist, destroy the morale of our army, and increase the prestige of others, what is your intention? ”

Yuan Shao waved his hand to stop the quarrel between the two, and said, "Lord Wang, when you attack later, press your bow battalion to respond to the forward assault!" ”

Hanoi Taishou Wang Kuang immediately stepped forward and responded: "The alliance leader has a life, dare not serve his life!" ”

Yuan Shao nodded with satisfaction, obviously very pleased with Wang Kuang's obedient attitude.

Zhuang Shaoyou was neatly draped and rode on a horse, and behind him were the generals and the cavalry battalion of three hundred personal guards. Looking at the movement of Yuan Shaojun's camp opposite, his expression gradually became solemn, and after thinking for a moment, he ordered: "Pass on my military order, the whole army will shrink the formation, the three formations will be combined, and the three formations will be slowed down!" General Huang, Ximen left a battalion to defend, and the rest of the men and horses also pulled over! Also, order the entire fire crossbow battalion to concentrate on this general as quickly as possible! ”

"Subordinates take orders!"

After receiving the military order, the three phalanxes of the 1st Division quickly moved, regrouped again, and became a large phalanx. The fire crossbow battalion in Puyang City was also ordered to dispatch urgently, gather in a tense and orderly manner, and then follow the phalanx from the west gate.

The sky gradually brightened, and a colorful glow rose on the horizon, Zhuang Shaoyou was very shocked when he saw this, the morning glow rained, and looking at this situation, the rain must not be small!

After thinking for a moment, Zhuang Shaoyou then ordered: "Come on!" Ordered Tai Shi Ci to prepare for the rain and leave the city in half an hour! After leaving the city, you must not fall in love with the battle, and the first brigade of the sailor division is ordered to fully cooperate with the cavalry to break through! ”

"Yes!"

After receiving the order, the scout hurried to deliver the military order, and did not dare to delay for a moment.

Zhuang Shaoyou looked up at the sky and sighed, "I hope it's time!" ”

After another quarter of an hour, Zhuang Shaoyou's phalanx gradually approached the location of Yuan Shao's camp, and the eighty rocket ballistae of the fire crossbow battalion also reached the rear flank of the phalanx.

"The whole army stops advancing! Ballista Array Forward! ”

The 1st Infantry Division was equipped with 400 ballistas, which was twice as many as the other infantry divisions! And the crossbow machine is also a new type of crossbow machine, four shots at a time, the lethality is twice as strong as the original crossbow machine, plus the first division is the elite of a hundred battles, so its combat effectiveness is definitely twice as much as that of other infantry divisions, or even more.

With the movement of Zhuang Shaoyou's phalanx, the atmosphere in the west of Puyang City became more and more tense, seeing Zhuang Shaoyou's desperate posture, all the soldiers put away their relaxed attitudes, because everyone had a hunch that what was coming was not a harassment war, but a bloody battle!

"Happy to obey!"

Le Jin immediately stepped forward and knelt down on one knee and saluted: "The last general!" ”

"Order you to lead the Fourth Brigade of the First Division to press the formation on the rear flank, and you must not go into battle without a military order!"

"The last general commands!"

After speaking, Zhuang Shaoyou stepped forward immediately, took over Huang Zhong's command without saying anything, and prepared to personally command this battle! Half of the officers and men of the First Division are veterans who have followed Zhuang Shaoyou since Luoyang, which can be described as having deep feelings. Now seeing that Zhuang Shaoyou was ready to command in person, his morale suddenly rose again, and they were both nervous and excited, ready to try.
