Xiapi, Xuzhou Prefecture.

Xiapi City is thick and towering, surrounded by water on three sides, controlling the north and south. Although it has a geographical advantage, it is surrounded by water systems and cannot be alone.

At this moment, inside Xiapi City.

Chu Feng had just arrived in Xiapi not long ago. Looking at the old subordinates, it had been quite a while since they had left. Lu Meng and others also chatted with Chu Feng with sighs on their faces.

For a time, the house was filled with laughter and laughter.

Chu Feng was in the first place. While chatting, he looked at the generals in the hall and couldn't help but sigh. It was not easy for him to develop into a strong army in a few years.

The military generals under the hall include Lu Su, Lu Meng, Xu Chu, Tai Shi Ci, Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, Zhang Xiu, Wei Yan, etc., all of whom are the first-class generals in the world.

In addition to these people, there are also Zhao Fan, Gan Ning, Wenpin, Huo Jun, Zhu Huan, He Qi, etc. who are responsible for guarding various places and are also generals.

As for the civil servants, Jia Xu and Lu Xun who are accompanying the army, or Yan Xiang who is in Xiapi, including Lu Su among the generals, that is to say, the four military aircraft battalions are here.

It can be seen that Chu Feng is fully prepared for this battle.

While chatting, Chu Feng looked at everyone and asked: "Everyone, Yuan Shao did not hesitate to collude with foreign races in order to win this battle. This behavior is intolerable."

"Do you have any good strategies to defeat the enemy?"

After the words fell, everyone looked at each other, and Lu Meng immediately strode out: "Lord, our army has been mainly on the defensive during this period, but the terrain of Xiapi City is low and cannot be maintained for a long time, otherwise it will inevitably happen again when Cao Cao defeated Lu Bu.

"

"The final general believes that the decisive battle should be fought as soon as possible. The decisive battle should be fought quickly!"

After Lu Meng finished speaking, Lu Xun also said: "My lord, what General Lu said is true, but there is one thing. The Northern Army has recently arrived and is full of vigor. How can we talk about a quick victory in the field?"

"At the end of the day, I thought that I should wait for work, wait for the Northern Army's vigor to wane, and then go all out to annihilate it. What's more, Yuan Shao's army has tens of thousands of horses, and the logistics pressure is extremely heavy!"

"Even if our army confronts him, the pressure will be on Yuan Shao's side, not our army."

Listening to the words of the two men, everyone pondered, because what they said was both reasonable. One was to fight quickly, and the other was to wait for work.

Jia Xu also looked at Chu Feng.

Because there are still about two months until Xia Yu explodes, which means that sticking to it will most likely put Xiapi in danger.

Chu Feng said at this moment: "What the two generals said is not unreasonable, but there is one point. Wuhuan is a nomadic people. Although our army wants to hold on and wait for the enemy's energy to weaken,"

"But if he crosses Xiapi and harasses him, what will happen to the people everywhere? Therefore, this battle aims to take the initiative and beat Wuhuan severely and cripple him."

"We should let Wu Huan know that the Han Dynasty's land is not for him to come and leave whenever he wants. Now that he is here, he can stay in peace and contentment."

Chu Feng's voice was cold and filled with murderous intent.

"This" all the generals were shocked by Chu Feng's determination.

"My lord is right. The foreigner Xiaoxiao is worthy of setting foot in the Central Plains. Now that you are here, don't even think about leaving. The last general invites you to fight. He is the vanguard for your lord to kill the enemy."

Zhang Liao spoke immediately, with anger in his chest.

He is from the frontier. The people in the North have been oppressed by foreigners all year round. Especially in recent years, the weakness of the Han Dynasty has made the foreigners unscrupulous. Now these people dare to invade the Central Plains, so they must be beaten and hurt.

"My lord, I am willing to work with General Zhang to defeat the enemy!" Zhao Yun also clasped his fists and said. He knew that Chu Feng's cavalry now had thousands of people in addition to the Central Army.

It's him and Zhang Liao, it's up to them to defeat the enemy.

Chu Feng glanced at the two of them. Their faces were solemn. They thought that the Hu people's cavalry would put a lot of pressure on them. After all, these cavalry were elite cavalry.

"The two cavalrymen under your command have been newly formed not long ago. They can be used to defeat the infantry." Chu Feng raised his hand. He had no intention of letting his cavalrymen and Wuhuan cavalry compete against each other.

"My lord, don't you think that we are no match for the Wuhuan cavalry?" Zhang Liao said angrily, "The soldiers have stirrups, saddles, etc. to help them, which is like divine help."

"Everyone trains hard, and they all want to kill that group of aliens to prove themselves and let the world know who is the strongest cavalry."

"My lord, although we have just recruited our troops, none of the men from Jiujiang are cowards. They are all passionate and will certainly drive away the barbarians for our lord and exalt his heavenly power."

Zhao Yun also clasped his fists and looked solemn.

"Haha, it's a good thing to have such an ambition. I have the ambition to eat the meat of barbarians when I'm hungry, and drink the blood of foreigners when I'm thirsty for laughter. My big men are not cowards, and I'm not afraid of powerful enemies."

Chu Feng felt very little and said boldly.

Zhang Liao and others also echoed this passage, each with high blood and high ambition, hungry for the meat of barbarians, laughing and talking about thirsty for drinking the blood of foreigners, what a heroic statement.

Zhang Liao is extremely yearning!

"But it's not time to kill the foreigners now. Of course, I have a way to destroy the tens of thousands of Wuhuan's iron cavalry. When the time comes, you can just lead your troops to kill them."

Chu Feng waved his hands and had an idea in his mind.

"But this" Zhang Liao and others were anxious and a little confused.

Jia Xu hesitated for a moment, then immediately asked: "My lord, I don't know what your specific plans are for this battle? And how are you going to win?"

Hearing this, everyone looked at Chu Feng.

At this moment, the general guarding the city rushed over and shouted loudly: "To inform my lord, Sergeant Yuan's soldiers outside the city called for formation, saying that Yuan Shao has invited my lord to form a formation for a decisive battle in five days."

"Oh haha, formation battle?"

Chu Feng chuckled, with a bit of surprise.

"Just as I was about to doze off, Yuan Shao handed me a pillow. I was still worried that he would contain me head-on and use the mobility of the Wuhuan cavalry to fight. If that were the case, it would be a headache."

Chu Feng smiled, he was really not afraid of frontal combat.

What he was afraid of was that Yuan Shao would avoid the battle, because there was no way to contain Chu Feng with his cavalry, and at a certain point Xuzhou would have no choice but to let him go without any reason.

"Go and tell Yuan Shao's subordinates that he will accept the challenge and let him wash his neck and wait." Chu Feng looked at Ya Jiang and said.

"No!" Yajiang immediately retreated.

"Lord, is it too risky to accept the challenge? Our army has only half the enemy's troops, and the enemy's cavalry is at least 40,000, including 30,000 Wuhuan Jingqi."

"Once such a plain battle falls into a dogfight, and the cavalry is used to flank the enemy from both sides, it is very likely that our army will not be able to protect the central army and will be defeated."

Lu Xun said with a bit of worry.

Yan Xiang also nodded, thinking that it was inappropriate to fight head-on. It was not a good thing to fight when neither foot nor cavalry had the advantage.

"Haha, you are right."

"If there is no way to contain the enemy's cavalry, it will be difficult to fight this battle. But if the enemy's cavalry can be eliminated in one fell swoop, then the enemy's army can be decimated."

Chu Feng clenched his fists and was slightly excited.

Yuan Shao has a profound foundation, but it is not easy to recover from such a defeat. Of course, with his foundation, it is not impossible to start another war.

After all, in history, it took Cao Cao seven or eight years to completely annex Hebei after he defeated Guandu. This was because Yuan Shao's sons were fighting among themselves.

If the sons don't fight among themselves, there will probably still be fights. This is also the foundation of the Yuan family in Hebei. The foundation is too solid.

"Abolish the enemy's cavalry?" Everyone looked at Chu Feng, all lost in thought, because Chu Feng emphasized several times that he was sure to kill the enemy's cavalry.

You know, these tens of thousands of cavalry cannot be defeated just by talking.

Seeing everyone's doubts, Chu Feng went straight to the sand table and said solemnly: "The decisive battle on the plains must be based on infantry, with cavalry as the supplement to penetrate the two wings."

"Infantry Yuan Shao's army is not a worry. The Central Army can crush it head-on. The only thing to worry about is the cavalry. His cavalry will definitely be deployed on both wings."

"If our army shows weakness from the front, Yuan Shao will definitely be very happy to have his cavalry penetrate our army from both wings. At that time, it will be an opportunity to defeat the enemy's cavalry."

"I have recently developed a thing that can shoot from a long distance and make strange noises. It can frighten war horses. Once the cavalry crosses it, it can directly make the enemy's cavalry retreat in fear and be destroyed."

"At that time, our army's cavalry will fight out from both sides, and at the same time, the front will be handed over to the Central Army to take over and launch a counterattack. In short, we will first lure the enemy deep and then counterattack his army."

Chu Feng pushed those war games and showed them to everyone.

Chu Feng's military career over the past few years has given him a strong commanding insight, and the layout of these battle formations is also concise and easy to understand.

"My lord, is there any way to defeat the cavalry?" Everyone exclaimed, shocked in their hearts.

Because cavalry has been a powerful weapon in plain warfare since ancient times and is extremely difficult to deal with. Lu Bu had more than a thousand wolf cavalry and killed Cao Cao and fled.

As long as this thing exists, it is a murder weapon!

"Haha, if my lord can defeat the enemy's cavalry in one fell swoop, then this battle may not be difficult to win. I guess Yuan Shao also pinned his hopes of victory on the cavalry."

"When the time comes, he won't be able to predict the changes that will occur." Jia Xu stroked his beard. He was still a little worried just now, but after hearing what Chu Feng said, he felt relieved.

Obviously, Chu Feng had already prepared.

"Lord, I wonder what can defeat the enemy's cavalry?" Lu Meng asked excitedly. He should know this kind of thing, and it is related to the victory of this battle.

"Xu Chu, please order the tiger guards to seal off the entire general's residence and bring a few more war horses over, just in time to show the effect of this thing." Chu Feng pondered slightly.

He had test-fired a box of fifty-gun anti-aircraft fireworks before. The range was about 80-100 meters, which was quite far, and the deterrent to war horses was extremely terrifying.

"Promise!" Xu Chu nodded.

Everyone was excited and looking forward to it.

"Let's go, let's take you to the backyard shooting range to try." Chu Feng chuckled.

Immediately, everyone rushed over.

Chu Feng also took the opportunity to go to the room and get a box of fireworks, and carried them directly to the shooting range in the backyard.

Seeing Chu Feng coming over, all the generals looked puzzled, because what Chu Feng was holding was just a square box, which didn't look unusual.
