As the saying goes: 'The soldiers are fast and fast, and the decisive victory is thousands of miles', when the two armies face each other, who is faster, who has more chances of winning, Cao Cao is proficient in Tao strategy, and naturally understands this truth, after the flag ceremony, the team of people and horses day and night, rolling and walking, it only took four days, and they rushed to the northern town - Guandu!

Guandu is located in the north of Xuchang 200 miles, this place is connected to the chasm in the east, Jishui in the west, Pushui in the north, extending in all directions, transportation is very convenient, in terms of topography, surrounded by three waters, easy to defend and difficult to attack, it is a place where soldiers must fight, and it is also the main battlefield of Cao Cao's preset!

Set Guandu as the main battlefield, but also a last resort, open the map to check, and I understand in my heart, Cao and Yuan two families face each other in the north and south, separated by a rolling Yellow River, the most important ferry is the upstream Yanjin, the downstream Baima, the two places are like iron cables, locked the traffic arteries, and they are also the focus of competition between the two sides!

However, the decisive battle on the first line of Baima and Yanjin, in terms of terrain, is extremely unfavorable to Cao's army, the two places are more than 400 miles away from the base camp - Xuchang, not to mention the long distance, there is also a chasm, Jishui, Pushui in the middle, the river is wide, the water is turbulent, the boats are difficult to cross, it is extremely inconvenient to transport ordnance, grain and grass, once there is a problem in logistics, hundreds of thousands of horses will fall into the Jedi!

On the contrary, the base camp of the Yuan army is in Liyang City, only fifty miles away from Baima, and more than a hundred miles to Yanjin, with a horse and a flat river in the middle, the road is smooth, the transportation is convenient, and the grain and grass are continuously sent up.

It is with this in mind that two years ago, Cao Cao sent a large number of men and horses to build a barrier in Guandu, dig a trench, and set up a strong battalion.

In addition to the unfavorable terrain, strength is also a problem, this expedition, Cao Cao mobilized 170,000 elite men, plus the Xiliang soldiers brought by Zhang Xiu, as well as the garrisons near Baima, Yanjin, and Guandu, the total strength is about 250,000, as for the grain and grass, it can only be said that it can barely be supported, and it can last for a few months!

Looking at Yuan's side again, there were 100,000 defenders along the Yellow River, plus the main force brought by Yuan Shao, the total strength was as high as 500,000, more than twice the strength of Cao's army, and the equipment was excellent, the grain and grass were sufficient, and there was no problem with transportation, which can be described as strong!

The terrain is unfavorable, the troops are small, and the food and grass are insufficient, this battle is really difficult to fight, Cao Cao can rely on: first, his own Wen Tao Wu strategy, far better than the opponent; The second is that the whole army is united, forgetting life and fighting bravely!

"Hey! …… If Xiao Lang is here, leading the last partial division, rushing left and right, echoing each other, the old man will be much more at ease! ”

When the war came, Cao Cao remembered that his son-in-law was coming, and when he went out to fight in the past, he always sat in the Chinese army by himself, Xiao Yi charged into battle, and the two worked closely together to conquer everything and be invincible!

It's a pity, Xiao Yi is still in the prison, and his generals have also advised, release Da Sima, let him make meritorious service on the battlefield, and win the battle victory, all of which were rejected by Cao Cao, this decisive battle is a matter of life and death, there must be many variables, until the critical moment, the 'Peerless Divine Sword' must not be unsheathed, once it is unsheathed, it must be killed with one blow!

"Report! - Tens of thousands of Yuan troops crossed the Yellow River and are attacking White Horse City, and the two sides have already begun to fight! ”

"Report! - Traces of enemy troops were found on the other side of Yanjin, with dense banners, swords and guns, and the number of soldiers and horses is difficult to estimate, and it is suspected that it is the Yuan army! ”

"Report! -The white horse is in a hurry, the Yuan army is attacking fiercely, the defenders have suffered heavy casualties, and Liu Yan can't support it, so he asks the prime minister to send reinforcements quickly! ”

…………………………………………………………………………

As soon as the team arrived in Guandu, the reconnaissance rangers came, connected before and after, in an endless stream, all asking for reinforcements, Yuan Jun was storming Baima, and the other party was the first to strike strong!

As the saying goes, a battle is a victory, a battle is a defeat, a battle is a defeat, the two armies are opposed, the first battle is extremely important, this is related to the morale of the whole army, don't forget, husband war, courage also, one blow, then decline, three and exhaustion, whose morale is high, who will have the upper hand!

"Quickly invite Mr. Fengxiao and Zhongde to discuss the matter in the big tent of the Chinese army, and the Central Plains War has begun!"

Cao Cao immediately sent someone to invite two strategists, and at the same time hung a giant cowhide map, stared at Baima and Yanjin, and thought about it repeatedly, what kind of routine is Yuan Shao playing?

Send an army to storm Baima, and then send an army to lurk in Yanjin, on the surface, this is a typical 'sound east and west', so, Cao's countermeasure is that a partial division rescues Baima, and the main force goes to Yanjin, sets up a pocket for Yuan's army, and hits it halfway, and fights a beautiful victory!

Such a troop arrangement is not only reasonable and reasonable, but also in line with the battlefield situation, but there is a good saying: "Too normal things must be abnormal", Yuan Shao has no great wisdom, but he has some cleverness, and he is quite cunning in fighting. ’

On the surface, 'feint to attack the white horse and attack Yanjin', so as to divert the main force of the Cao army, and then the elite of the Yuan army crossed the river, taking advantage of the unpreparedness of the defenders, first taking the white horse, and then occupying the official crossing, and finally smashing Xuchang, locking the battle in one fell swoop, what a cunning tactic!

This strategy is in line with Yuan Shao's self-made smart character, and it is also the best offensive route for Hebei people, their base camp is in Liyang City, very close to Baima, far away from Yanjin, the combat operation of the large army is laborious, no one will be willing to seek far, this is human nature!

"Yuan Jun's name is to attack the west, but in fact he is bluffing, the target is still a white horse, and the prime minister needs to deal with it carefully!"

"It's better to plan the plan, just under the White Horse City, hit the main force of the Yuan army, and fight a big victory, so as to boost the morale of the three armies!"

……………………………………………………

After a while, Guo Jia and Cheng Yu came to the big tent, and the two strategists also received the news, and after consulting with each other, they reached a consensus, this is Yuan Shao's trick, Yanjin is a false shot, and the main direction of attack is in Baima!

"Huh! …… Sent an order to General Zhang Xiu, led the people of the headquarters, and supported Yanjin with great fanfare, Xiahou Tang and Xiahou Yuan commanded 100,000 troops, stationed in Guandu, and the rest of the men and horses, covering their whereabouts, and went with the old man to support Baima! ”

The opinions of the three were completely unanimous, Cao Cao was finally relieved, and immediately dispatched troops and generals, ready to set a trap on the white horse, annihilate Yuan's soldiers and horses, and get off to a good start!

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………

"Kill! --Forge ahead, conquer the white horse, and go straight to Xuchang! ”

"Rush! --Those who ascend to the city first will receive a bounty of 1,000 taels and an official promotion of three levels! ”

………………………………

Under the White Horse City, tens of thousands of Yuan troops carried ladders, waved their blades, and under the cover of a large number of archers, they fiercely attacked the city wall, like a surging river, endlessly!

The two who are in charge of the command are Ma Yan and Zhang Kai, who are not very famous in Hebei and can only be regarded as third-rate generals, therefore, their command level is also limited, the most traditional wave attack, the soldiers repeatedly charge, like adding lamp oil, the consumption is extremely heavy!

Baima is an important town along the Yellow River, the city is high and deep, the walls are strong, and there are tens of thousands of elite soldiers to guard, with the skills of Ma Yan and Zhang Kai, as well as the combat effectiveness of his subordinates, it is almost impossible to conquer the city, but they have their own reasons for the onslaught regardless of casualties!

Cao Cao's guess was right, they were feints, the real killer was behind, the generals Zhang Jaw and Gao Ran commanded 50,000 iron armor elites, and they were ambushed on the other side of the river, as long as they received the news, they would immediately kill them, conquer the white horse in one fell swoop, and then use this as a pedal to take Guandu, march to Xuchang, and completely defeat Cao's army!

It is said that it was opposed by the strategists Tian Feng and Fu Zhu, and the two thought that Cao Cao was treacherous by nature and would not be easily fooled.

As for whether to send troops to Baima, the two sides quarreled in the big tent for a while, and finally Yuan Shao overwhelmed people with power and forcibly passed the plan.

"Report! --Cao Jun more than 100,000 horses, all of them supported Yanjin, near Baima, not a single soldier came to the rescue! ”

The battle lasted for two days and two nights, and the Yuan army killed and wounded tens of thousands of soldiers, and finally waited for a good news, the reconnaissance rangers came to report that there were no enemy troops nearby, and Cao Cao seemed to be fooled!

"Great, this plan is successful, after conquering the white horse, we all have credit, after all, it took two days to play a big show...... Come on, hurry up and send a signal! ”

Hearing the report, Ma Yan and Zhang Kai were overjoyed, and immediately sent people to raise three fires, and when the fire was in full swing, they put on some wet firewood and grass, and in an instant, the smoke was billowing and going straight to the sky!

"Whew! …… Call! …… Call! ”

……………………………………………

"Hebei sons, the time has come for you to make contributions, cross the Yellow River, capture the white horse, win glory and wealth, and fight today...... Kill! “

On the north bank of the Yellow River, Zhang Jaw and Gao Ran had long been looking forward to it, and after seeing the smoke rising, they immediately led 50,000 elites to cross the Yellow River.
