Chapter 861 Under the order of the Duke of Chu, Qingzhou must be taken!
"Mengde, Mengde (Cao Cao's cousin)... something bad is going to happen!"
Yanzhou general Cao Hong, dressed in a mighty military uniform, walked into Cao Cao's tent with tiger strides.
Cao Cao was worried about the battle in Guandu, so he frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"
Cao Hong said in a seductive voice: "The 200,000 Hebei Black Mountain bandits have been persuaded by Tian Feng to surrender to Yuan Shao!"
hiss!
Cao Hong's answer was the sound of gasps in the tent.
Cao Cao was obviously a traitor. When he encountered such a shocking turn of events, he was shocked and his face changed drastically!
Two hundred thousand troops!
Not two thousand people, twenty thousand people!
Adding these 200,000 soldiers, the number of Yuan Shao's troops stationed on the north bank of the Yellow River reached a terrifying 500,000 people!
If everyone throws a whip, the Yellow River can be stopped!
The battle of Guandu shows the difference between the strong and the weak!
Xia Houyuan murmured: "Fifty million people... Yuan Shao's strength is even more terrifying than Dong Zhuo's back then..."
Xiahou Dun, who has always been fierce and fierce, said with a solemn expression: "Fuck you! Five hundred thousand people, even if they are arranged in formation and killed by us, they will still cut the blades of the sword, and they will be exhausted!"
Why!
Cao Cao looked up to the sky and sighed, saying: "The Duke of Chu had a secret letter long ago, and what he said is true. If the victory of the Guandu battle cannot be decided within two months, things will change drastically... It is true, it is true.
So..."
"Quickly summon Cheng Yu, Xi Zhicai and other gentlemen, and prepare to discuss important matters!"
Cao Cao looked solemn.
Suddenly he remembered the secret letter Liu Hao had sent him, asserting that Tian Feng would influence the situation of the war.
Cao Cao didn't take it seriously at the time, but now he feels both sad and awe-inspiring:
Liu Hao was sitting thousands of miles away in the imperial capital of Jinling, but he had a clear grasp of the situation!
It's simply terrible!
...
Half a month later, the Battle of Guandu had reached its peak.
Cao Cao was at a huge disadvantage, so he sent his own generals Xia Houyuan and Cao Chun to lead the tiger and leopard cavalry to attack the enemy's rear in a detour!
After a desperate battle, more than half of the tiger and leopard cavalry were killed and injured, and finally burned part of Yuan Shao's army's food and grass, causing Yuan Shao's hundreds of thousands of troops to feel shaken!
And Tian Feng, the leader of Yuan Shao's army, was not a vegetarian either.
He immediately responded in kind, and the elite archers from Hebei formed the Hebei Archery and began to show off their power!
Tens of thousands of sharp archers built high-rise buildings on the north bank of the Yellow River and shot wildly at Cao Cao's camp day and night, with arrows like rain!
In addition, Jizhou's elite Euphorbia soldiers and ferocious Black Mountain bandits joined the battlefield. If Cao Cao's army had not had Wei Wu's halo to suppress the situation, it would have been almost completely suppressed to collapse!
...
Xuzhou, Langya County.
Above the school grounds, a strong wind blows, and the flags blowing cover the sky and block out the sun.
There are more than 60,000 officers and soldiers of the three armies, all wearing clanking iron armor, and mountains of swords and swords stand tall!
Since receiving Zhou Yu's order to mobilize troops, the fierce soldiers, led by the generals of various ministries, were ready to go and stood solemnly in the school field!
Zhou Yu pressed his sword with both hands and stood on the high platform in the school field.
Qin Qiong, the golden-faced heavenly king, and Zhao Yun, the gentian spear god, both stood behind Zhou Yu, with long spears in their hands and red tassels dancing in the air.
"Commanders, listen to the order. I follow the military orders of Duke Chu. The whole army will attack and we will capture Qingzhou!!"
Coach Zhou Yu, with a solemn expression on his face, raised his hand and waved the handsome flag!
All!!!
woo woo woo woo!!!
The three pipes swelled and the horn suddenly sounded.
Huang Zhong, Cheng Yaojin and other generals in the audience looked excited and raised their swords and roared wildly!
"kill!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
The fierce warriors held swords and guns in their left hands and struck the ground hard. They clenched their right hands into fists and pounded their breastplates hard!
The killing sounds gathered together loudly, like a furious wave of the sea, tearing through the sky!
...
"Generals, listen to the order and stop for a moment!!"
Gao Lanting picked up the iron gun with a thick mouth in his hand and shouted to stop the rear army from stopping.
General Lu Weihuang rode forward and asked: "General Gao, why don't you continue to advance? As long as we reach Ju County, our army can calmly deploy and snipe the Chu army in Xuzhou!"
He couldn't understand that this three-point and one-line battle plan to station troops in Ju County was clearly formulated by Hebei General Gao Lan himself. He was about to arrive in Ju County, but he stopped again.
"As the art of war goes, don't enter the woods..."
Gao Lan sat on horseback, surveyed the mountain forest, and said: "This dense forest is lush and dangerous, with many reeds on both sides. It is very suitable for hiding soldiers and ambush. We should send scouts to investigate first and then make a decision!"
"General Gao is worthy of being one of the four pillars of Hebei Province, and the last general will take command!"
Hebei Xiao general Lu Weihuang made a fist with both hands and retreated towards the rear army.
The Four Court Pillars of Hebei are the collective name given to Yuan Shao's four fierce generals in the Hebei army.
There are four people, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhang He and Gao Lan!
Although Gao Lan ranks at the bottom of the list, he is also familiar with the art of war and is relied upon by Yuan Shao as a confidant general!
This time, Wen Chou was transferred to Guandu, and Gao Lan served as a barrier to defend Qingzhou, commanding an army of 100,000!
"Report!"
A spy from Yuan Shaojun suddenly ran out on horseback, shouting as he ran, "There is an ambush in the forest ahead... Uh-huh!"
Before the spy could finish his words, a wolf feather arrow shot from behind pierced his neck!
"There is an enemy ambush!"
Seeing him tumbling off his horse, Gao Lan felt frightened and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Keep the military formation stable, the enemy has an ambush here, prepare to meet the enemy!"
The Qingzhou Army was in an uproar!
Many soldiers began to stand up and hurriedly packed up their armor and weapons.
This 30,000-strong vanguard army, under the command of Gao Lan, did not cause any trouble.
A strong shield was quickly erected, and a defensive formation was formed in twos and threes!
"That's strange! Why didn't the enemy take advantage of the situation to attack after killing the scout?"
After waiting for a while, he didn't notice any movement coming from the direction of the forest. Gao Lan was holding a big iron gun with a confused look on his face...
The officers and soldiers of the three armies of Qingzhou are also in a state of confusion! ..
