Chapter 837: Yan Liang is about to arrive at the White Horse
"General, it seems that Cao's navy has become smaller......" After successfully crossing the river, the deputy general Jiang Qi came to Yan Liang's side. I thought it would take a lot of twists and turns to go south, but it turned out to be unexpectedly smooth.
During this period, there was some harassment, but on the whole, the fleet successfully transported the 10,000 elite soldiers to the other side. In addition to the 10,000 elite soldiers, there are 40,000 auxiliary soldiers, and the baggage supplies have all been in place.
At least, in the absence of replenishment in the rear, a war of twenty days to a month or so can be fought.
"Whatever the reason is!" Yan Liang said disappreciably, "We have come here, then what follows is Cao Jun's nightmare!" By the way, have you mastered Cao Jun's movements?! ”
"It has been confirmed that Cao's army is twenty miles outside Baima County." Jiang Qi replied, after all, the scouts were in his charge.
"Bring the map!" Yan Liang thought for a moment, and then shouted. After a while, the map was brought over, he looked at it carefully, and according to the marks on the map, if they wanted to go south, then this white horse would not be able to get around, and other counties would be far away, but whether it was Yan County or Lihu County, the white horse side could support it as soon as possible......
"It seems that we have to have a fight with Cao Jun head-on!" Although Yan Liang is more impulsive and reckless, it does not mean that he has no brains. After confirming the map, he decisively ordered, "All the army marches!" ”
The strength of the Yanzhou Army on the side of Dong County is 5,000 soldiers, and if the main force considers that it will also support Hanoi County, and at the same time it will join the Cao Army headquarters, then it is impossible to come to support.
The Xuzhou army is too far away from here, and the war has ended here, and Yuan Tan is also dragging the other party.
"Five thousand against ten thousand, I want to see how Cao Jun blocks my troops!" Yan Liang clenched his fists and looked in the direction of the white horse.
At the same time, Zhang Fei, who was in the White Horse Formation, was also preparing intensively. Since Li Dian and Le Jin were transferred to the Yongzhou Army, the defense of Dongjun was even in the hands of her, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Wang Ling and Xiahou Ba.
Yes, Wang Ling was transferred to serve in the Yanzhou Legion, and at the same time, Xiahou Ba was also transferred to become a general. In the end, it was Xiahou Yuan's son, born with good genes, Zhang Fei only exercised him a little at first, but found that he had a very good talent in martial arts, so he began to teach him personally, and at the same time arranged for him to serve in the army, which was regarded as the captain of her personal guard.
Of course, in three or five years, he is not expected to have strong combat effectiveness...... In fact, what really drove Zhang Fei crazy was that after training for more than half a year, this guy's temperament and appearance had not changed much, but he cried more movingly, and the look of grievances and resentment made Zhang Fei feel a strong sense of guilt every time he saw it......
"I can't even bother to train him!" Zhang Fei didn't know how many times he said something like this.
If you want to say that Xu Shu is the most suitable woman for men's clothing, then probably Xiahou Ba is the most suitable man for women's clothing. In this regard, Zhang Liao and others all admit it.
"General, fifty miles away, Yuan Shao's army is marching towards our side." The scout came to report, "Did you tell the stockades along the way to volley?" ”
"Shrink the defensive line, and all the stockades on the front are withdrawn!" Zhang Fei immediately ordered that the stockade was not set up to block the other party, but to investigate. Otherwise, if the enemy makes a detour, it will be difficult to know the opponent's movements without these stockades as eyeliners.
For example, it is difficult to judge whether the opponent suddenly divided his forces or fought in a roundabout way, and these are just relying on scouts.
"Yes!" The scout received the order and immediately returned to report it.
"Five thousand against ten thousand, it's really ......" Zhang Liao smiled faintly, if there is no pressure, it is a joke. Yuan Shao's subordinates have just finished the battle of Youzhou, and the soldiers under his command are all elite on the battlefield, and they want to rely on training to win more with less, which is impossible, and what can be compared in the end is nothing more than the restraint of the troops, the use of tactics and strategies.
"General rest assured, at least we still have a chance to win!" Zhao Yun stepped forward slowly, "We still have a lot of cavalry. ”
There were 5,000 soldiers, including 2,000 wolf riders from Bingzhou, 1,000 people from the trap camp, 1,000 people from the White Horse Righteous Servants, and 1,000 crossbowmen. Zhang Liao and Wang Ling commanded two thousand wolf riders, Gao Shun commanded one thousand trapping camps, Zhao Yun commanded one thousand white horse righteous servants, and Zhang Fei and Xiahou Ba commanded one thousand crossbowmen. Excluding the crossbowmen, there are four thousand soldiers left, all of whom are truly elite.
"The key is that Yuan Shao's side is also short of food, and no matter how elite the soldiers are, they will also practice every five days and a big practice every ten days. There is still a gap in the level of training, whether it is in the strength of the soldiers, or in the endurance! Zhang Fei added.
High-intensity training requires more military rations, and it would be fine if Yuan Shao promoted high-yield crops, but since she didn't promote it, then the grain and grass in the army would have to be supplied to so many people to eat, even if some of the auxiliaries were exploited, it would not be enough for ordinary soldiers to eat three meals a day.
Fortunately in wartime, during the daily training stage, it is estimated that only on training days, you can only eat three meals a day, and at other times, it is great to be able to maintain two meals a day. The nutrition can't keep up, the training can't keep up, and even in terms of experience, in fact, the Yanzhou army is not worse than the other party...... In the end, as long as there are no problems with the tactical strategy, then you can basically withstand the opponent's attack. Even, look for a chance to defeat it!
"The key is to be careful of Yan Liang!" Liu Ye stepped forward, she served as a military advisor on the side of the Yanzhou Legion, and now she is mainly responsible for the clerical work of Zhang Fei's department, and there are also a few people who have joined the army or something.
After a pause, he continued: "Although he is a man, under Yuan Shao, he is second only to Wen Chou. As far as the male generals of our army are concerned, it is estimated that only Huang Zhong can compare with him...... Of course, I mean generals......"
If you don't consider the generals, the strength of a chef who is not doing his job is also very terrifying.
"So in the eyes of the military advisor, am I so unbearable?" Zhang Liao pointed to himself.
"General Zhang's talent is slightly inferior in wisdom and command, and it doesn't hurt that his martial arts are slightly inferior. As far as I know, Yan Liang is a reckless man, and it is estimated that he will lead the army to charge the battle in person, and this is also our chance! Liu Ye replied.
"Report!" At this time, a fast horse came over, took out a military order, and handed it over, "Report to the general, the general has an order, so that we can fight, and if we can't, we will hold on, Ma Chao and Guan Yu have come to support!" ”
"Second sister is coming over?" Hearing the news, Zhang Fei was overjoyed, he hadn't seen him for a while, and he missed it very much. Especially when I heard that she gave birth to a daughter, I was unfortunately not able to meet her.
Having said that, among the three sisters, it was the second sister who got married and gave birth first, I really didn't expect it...... As for themselves...... Thinking of this, Zhang Fei looked at Xiahouba, this little guy has at least more than a year to reach the crown, and then the two can get married.
"If you can fight, you will fight......" Zhang Liao took the military order and looked at it, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, "We are underestimated?" ”
"Who still sighed about 5,000 to 10,000 ...... just now" Gao Shun dismantled the stage very unceremoniously.
"Objective analysis is objective analysis, but if you are looked down upon as a martial artist, you are still a little unhappy." Zhang Liao smiled, and then looked at Gao Shun, "Do you want to do a big job?" ”
"If it's an enemy army, then it doesn't matter...... If it's anything else, I suspect you're tired of it. Gao Shun replied slowly.
