"Xiahou Yuan ......." Yuan Shang suddenly realized when he heard this: "It turned out to be him." ”

Seeing this, Zhang Jaw said curiously: "The third prince also knows about this person?" ”

"Just a little bit of it." Yuan Shang stood up, said hello and said goodbye to a few old farmers, and then walked towards the direction of the official road with Zhang Jaw: "I only heard that he is a family and a favorite general under Cao Cao, I don't know what the specific skills are, I hope General Zhang can give me a lesson or two?" ”

"Don't dare to advise." Zhang Jaw raised his hand and stroked the beard on his chin, and thought carefully: "The last general has just heard about it, Xiahou Yuan raised troops with Cao Cao in his early years, and now lives in the position of Yingchuan Taishou, this person is extremely experienced, his temperament is like fire, and his temperament is strong, but these are not the main points......"

Yuan Shang said in surprise: "What is the point?" ”

Zhang Jaw sighed loudly: "The point is that this person is the best at thousands of miles of running tactics, the speed of the march, few in the world can be compared, if he leads the army to follow our army after chasing, even if our army is a cavalry department, I am afraid it will be extremely difficult to get rid of it....."

"A Thousand Miles Away....... I see. Yuan Shang lowered his head and pondered when he heard this, Zhang Jaw's worry was not unreasonable, their purpose at the moment was to quickly withdraw the army back to Hebei, but what Xiahou Yuan was good at was the method of long-distance running, just like the five elements restraining each other, Xiahou Yuan's tactics could be described as impartial, just to restrain his current retreat intentions.

It's a nuisance.

"General Zhangjaw, if in your opinion, what strategy should be used to deal with a person like Xiahou Yuan, who is good at sudden attacks, in order to seal his advantage?"

Zhang Jaw seemed to have already been in his chest, and when he heard this, his eyes suddenly opened, revealing a little bit of fine light, and said in a cold voice: "Garrison soldiers and horses, set up formations and plains, and face off with Xiahou Yuan who came from the impact, and fight it out!" ”

Yuan Shang nodded suddenly when he heard this: "I see, the soldiers will cover the water and the earth, right?" It's also a good way, so dare to ask General Zhang, how sure are you of victory in a head-to-head battle with Xiahou Yuan? ”

Almost without hesitation, he saw Zhang Jaw proudly said: "Although Xiahou Yuan is a famous general of the Cao family, if you want to defeat him, the last general is ten percent sure." ”

Ten percent sure, this sentence is not just a casual talk, we must have absolute confidence and self-confidence, as well as a comprehensive understanding of both sides of the enemy, with an open jaw, dare to say this sentence, I believe that it is not without a purpose.

"General Zhang is really a hero! It's not an ordinary person. Yuan Shang gave a thumbs up to Zhang Jaw appreciatively, and then suddenly his face froze, and said, "But after defeating Xiahou Yuan, how many men does General Zhang think our army can still have left?" ”

A sentence immediately stopped the jaw from opening his jaw.

Yes, he is confident that he will completely defeat Xiahou Yuan's pursuers, but how many of his five thousand iron cavalry will be left after the defeat? Now they are on Cao Cao's land, and the number of people in their hands is counted, just 5,000 people, and if one dies, there will be one less, but Cao's army can replenish the troops without limit, and gradually devour them bit by bit........

And if they want to successfully go north and return to Hebei, the soldiers and horses are very important, and without soldiers as a basis, why should they go back with a few light generals?

Thinking of this, Zhang Jaw couldn't help but be silent.

"Really?" Yuan Shang smiled understandingly, shook his head and said: "So, even if we can defeat Xiahou Yuan's army head-on, it is completely unnecessary for us, we are now playing with fire in Cao Cao's backyard, and we must save our only five thousand people, even if we cut off Xiahou Yuan's head, it will not be of any use to us, and in the end, because of this wrong move, we will be buried with him, it is not worth it!" ”

"Childe, what should we do if you think so? Xiahou Yuan is good at running, let's compare the speed with him, which is very disadvantageous. There was a hint of sorrow on his face, obviously annoyed by the current situation.

Yuan Shang smiled when he heard this, and said, "It's okay, I have a combat method that can crack Xiahou Yuan's rushing technique." ”

Zhang Jaw's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he hurriedly asked, "Dare to ask Gongzi what tactics he has to defeat the enemy?" ”

"Xiahou Yuan is chasing us and biting the tail, let's fight guerrilla with him, the enemy advances and I retreat, the enemy retreats and I chase, and the enemy chases and bites...... Anyway, it's just two words, run around! ”

"Running around?" Zhang Jaw was dumbfounded when he heard this, what kind of statement is this? Isn't the third son joking again?

Yuan Shang touched his chin and nodded affirmatively: "General Zhang, don't worry, I have a basis for this method, although Xiahou Yuan is good at running thousands of miles, but first of all, there must be a clear goal, we have retreated from Xudu for a long time, but he can still go straight to the east to chase after us, which shows that there are masters in Cao's army who have guessed our retreat route, and now I am afraid that it is impossible to go to Xuzhou, where there must have been an ambush of heavy troops to cut off our retreat to Qingzhou." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Jaw's face changed suddenly, and his brows furrowed deeply: "So...... How should I live? ”

Yuan Shang looked up at the sky and said slowly: "Since the retreat path has been blocked, the only way to do it now is ..... Don't go back to Hebei! ”

"Don't go back to Hebei? Where are we going if we don't go back to Hebei? Zhang Jaw was shocked when he heard this, and he didn't expect Yuan Shang to say such a sentence.

"Go south, or Yingchuan, or Yuzhou, you can ...... Just now I chatted with those old peasants in Yanzhou, and learned that Cao Cao's elite troops are basically all deployed in the north, and I am far away from Hebei, and Yuzhou and other places in the south are relatively weak, and there are many robbers...... It's time for the spring outing in two sections. ”

"Spring outing?"

Zhang Jaw couldn't cry or laugh when he heard this, there are still people in the world who actually go to the territory of life and death to go on a spring outing? It's the first time I've heard of it...............

"Where are the third sons going?" Zhang Jaw pondered for a long time, but after all, he didn't come up with any other way, so he could only ask helplessly.

Yuan Shang looked up at the sky when he heard this, and his eyes rolled and said, "In all fairness, I want to go to Runan." ”

"Runan?" Hearing this, Zhang Jaw muttered for a while, and said suspiciously: "Runan, Runan..... Third son, do we have a way to survive when we get to Runan? ”

"I just heard the old peasant say, because Cao Cao has been fighting against our army, there is no time to take care of it, so part of the city in Runan has now fallen into the hands of Liu Bei, such as today everyone knows that Liu Bei is wearing a cloth and belt edict, and Cao Cao is an enemy who does not share the sky, and there are also a lot of elite military horses under his command, and there are also fierce generals such as Zhang Zuo, and now Cao Cao's troops are mainly against my father, who knows if Liu Bei has other thoughts in the south? Maybe it's just a mistake with this fire, if I have the opportunity to meet Liu Bei, maybe I can say that he will raise troops to attack Xuchang, and when Yanzhou changes, we can take the opportunity to find a way north and return to Hebei. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Jaw sighed, shook his head, and said, "This ..... Alas, the third son, when Liu Bei lived under the lord's account in the past, the lord had almost killed Liu Bei several times because of Yan Liang and Wen Chou, and later Liu Bei went to Jingzhou under the pretext of persuading Liu Biao and our army, but he never returned, and the lord hated it deeply...... On the surface, although we have an ally with Liu Bei, but this Liang Zi is actually not shallow, we are going to Runan, what if Liu Bei attacks us in turn? ”

Yuan Shang's brows tightened when he heard this, he lowered his head and pondered for a while, before shaking his head and saying, "Don't worry, it won't!" Liu Bei is also the respect of the emperor's uncle, this kind of cheap thing that is disgusted by the world, he can't do it, and Liu Bei and Cao Cao are already enemies of life and death, if they attack us again, the two most powerful princes in the world will all let him offend him, this kind of thing will not be done unless it is a pig, I think Liu Bei can mix up to now, it must be smarter than a pig. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Jaw immediately wiped his sweat, this metaphor ..... What should one say?

Yuan Shang didn't care, waved his big hand, and said to Zhang Jaw: "General Zhang, send an order to the three armies, let's stop going to Xuzhou, turn to the south, and march to Runan!" ”
