Eight hundred and fifty-seventh chapters know the wisdom of others, those who know themselves will be clear
"It's really insidious." Xu Sheng looked at these horse traps and said, "How about I order people to fill these holes."
"Stay here, let's defend here and wait until General Liu builds the pontoon bridge before we move." Yu Jin said expressionlessly, "The other party's arrangement is probably to use these two garrison soldiers as bait to lure our cavalry across the river to attack here.
"
"Haha, with the level of people on the other side, how could Chen Hou and the others fall into the trap?" Mi Fang said nonchalantly.
In fact, if Liu Ye hadn't suddenly thought of attacking the ferry on the other side of the river under Chen Xi's unexpected suggestion, the possibility of falling into the trap was very high. And even if he didn't fall into the trap, he would have crossed the Yellow River in batches.
It was enough to turn the cross-river attack into a fueling tactic and disgust Liu Ye until he died.
After clearing the two villages, Yu Jin immediately deployed a defensive offensive on the spot and asked Mi Fang and others to go to the other side of the river to meet the Qingzhou Army to cross the bank to strengthen the defense on the spot. At the same time, he asked him to send a message to Liu Ye to continue building the pontoon bridge and be ready to cross the river at any time.
Without the obstruction of Yuan Shaojun on the other side of the river, Liu Ye's speed of building the pontoon bridge increased significantly, and soon the pontoon bridge that had been built for a length and a half was built to the other side. Then a large number of troops crossed the Yellow River along the pontoon bridge.
It was also at this time that Xun Chen learned that Liu Ye had crossed the Yellow River. He had been waiting here and there before, but before the smoke rose, he felt uneasy and sent scouts to investigate, only to find that Liu Bei's army had crossed the Yellow River in large numbers.
"Commander, what should we do now?" Chunyu Qiong is not the reckless man like Guo Yuan who is eager to try. When he was in Chang'an, he had really seen the power of Liu Ye and Hua Xiong. Although he did not have the upper hand compared to Xun Chen, he was definitely enough to face him.
Kill him.
"Hold the front line of Puyang first. There is no need to fight them head-on. Just wait for help." Xun Chen was not too panicked. He was not surprised that Liu Ye successfully crossed the river. This was only a matter of time, not a decisive factor.
"Military advisor, Guo Yuan invites you to fight." Guo Yuan cupped his fists and saluted Xun Chen and said, "It is human nature for soldiers to come and block them. Let them march in and seriously damage the morale of our army. Even if the battle is over, even if we are not victorious, it is better than this.
It would be too much stronger to retreat without a fight.”
"Okay, then I'll let you order five thousand troops, with Sun Zi as the deputy general, and go out to test the enemy. Don't go deep into the enemy's army. If you have anything to do, discuss it with Sun Zi." Xun Chen glanced at Guo Yuan and nodded slowly.
I didn’t say much else, but I still admire Guo Yuan’s courage.
Guo Yuan waved his cloak and left directly, while Sun Zi also clasped his fists and saluted, preparing to lead the army with Guo Yuan on the expedition.
"Yanlong, be careful when you get to the battlefield. Liu Ye is not an easy person. If you get hurt in the first battle, just retreat." Xun Chen stopped Sun Zi and warned him.
"I will try my best to advise General Guo." Sun Zi said calmly, "I will retreat directly to the west if necessary."
"Okay." Xun Chen nodded and said nothing more. The other party was a very good civil servant. He didn't need too many instructions.
After the two left, Chun Yuqiong sneered, "Just because the two of them want to block Liu Ye and Hua Xiong, I'm afraid they can't even block Yu Jin."
Xun Chen casually glanced at Chunyu Qiong and said, "Be prepared to meet Sili's troops. If they are the Xiahou brothers, let them go to Jiyin. If they are the Xiliang Qiang people, let them come with us."
Chunyu Qiong was a little embarrassed, but didn't say anything else. He admitted that he was indeed banned. Hua Xiong was beaten a little and flinched. As for the things Xun Chen arranged for him this time, he was very satisfied. It was safe and there was a lot of money.
It is very consistent with his abilities.
"What if the Xiahou brothers and the Xiliang Qiang people came at the same time?" Chunyu Qiong said with a roll of his eyes.
"If we come at the same time, you don't have to worry about it. They will naturally make the most correct choice. They are also guest troops, so there is no need to rely on them for the war." Xun Chen said with a casual glance. Then he began to compare
I made the fortification plan myself and ordered the craftsmen and soldiers to build it.
It seems that Xun Chen never thought of simply defeating Liu Bei after he had doubts about Liu Bei, so he chose to defend from the beginning instead of attacking like Ju Shou, Tian Feng and others.
[Take your time, let’s see how confident you are first, and then I’ll make a plan.] Xun Chen pressed a Wen Yu chess piece that he had been playing with for a long time on the Tianyuan position in an illegitimate manner, [Wen Ruo, I’m very worried.
I’m curious, how much have you grown over the years, but don’t let me predict you when the time comes!]
After Chen Xi led his army across the Yellow River, Yuan Shao's army on the opposite side shrank strangely into one place. Instead of launching a crazy attack as Liu Ye expected, he instead shrank his defense line extremely cautiously, as if he was waiting for reinforcements.
If Liu Ye hadn't already learned about the countless small beacon towers on the other side of the Yellow River through the scouts after crossing the Yellow River, he might have doubted his own guess now.
"Report, general, Yuan Shaojun has come to challenge." After Chen Xi's army crossed the river, Yu Jin began to perform his duties as a vanguard and set out on the road first. After only a few dozen miles, he reported from the front that he had encountered Yuan Shaojun.
Immediately, Yu Jin quickly mobilized the team that was originally stretched to facilitate the march into a square formation that was not convenient for the enemy to attack, and then steadily advanced towards the place where the intelligence was transmitted from the reconnaissance cavalry in front, at a neither slow nor urgent speed.
When Yu Jin's legion appeared in front of Guo Yuan in a uniform formation of dense spear array, Guo Yuan was in a daze.
"General, the opponent is extremely calm. It is better for our army to test it out and then withdraw. Their reconnaissance cavalry may have been dispersed for more than thirty miles, and after the news of the attack was sent back, the opponent's general led his troops to rush in, completely out of control.
Unexpected." Sun Zi said with a solemn expression.
Guo Yuan did not answer, but looking at the rigorous and orderly team on the opposite side, Guo Yuan knew that what Sun Zi said was true. Originally, he wanted to ambush Liu Bei's vanguard, but he was first discovered by the scout cavalry, and then encountered this person.
This kind of pioneer is like a hedgehog, which is simply disgusting.
"General, will our army send someone to challenge?" Fan Lin turned to look at Yu Jin and asked. The heads of the two people opposite were all meritorious.
"No need, raise the gun, prepare the archers, just press forward. The opponent seems to be hesitating." Yu Jin made a movement while saying this, and a burst of drumbeats broke out from the rear army, and all the soldiers marched towards the enemy army in unison.
Kill in the direction.
Yu Jin knew what his shortcomings were. He did not have the invincible force of Hua Xiong and Zhang Fei. It was absolutely impossible to charge into the battle. But when he led the troops to fight, he was confident that he would not lose to anyone, so he prepared for himself very early.
A team of five hundred people was formed specifically to kill generals and capture flags! (To be continued.)
