But when the war is in a tug-of-war, it is not so easy. Not to mention the transfer of soldiers and food, even if it is just the transfer of soldiers and horses for hundreds of miles or thousands of miles, it is extremely hard. Therefore, the battle formations of the Han Dynasty are easy to make people nostalgic for the wars of the Spring and Autumn Dynasty, when people thought that strategy was shameful, and that the real nobles should deal with the enemy with a dignified array, and even if the enemy army was defeated and scattered, it should not be pursued.

A win is a victory, and a defeat is a defeat.

However, people like Yanbei will never miss that era, and let him go back to that time, unless a soldier who may become a high-ranking civil lord by virtue of his military merits after the Qin State changes the law, and finally dies on the battlefield, if he is in other countries, most of them will not die well.

Not to mention being a king, it's a fool's dream!

Zhang Liao chased the north and Li Dianle fled eastward without stopping, and their two armies did not have the opportunity to fight a big battle head-on for a short time, and they just chased me for several days, leaving at most a few hundred soldiers to shoot each other with bows and crossbows, and then continued to flee. Li Dian's plan was to flee all the way north to Liang and then join forces with the local garrison to defeat Zhang Liao, but unexpectedly, the main force of Cao's army had already been mobilized to the south of Liang and entered the direction of Peiguo, and the defenders who remained in the country were not enough to resist Zhang Liao.

Fortunately, there is no derogatory term for '-stirring stick' in this era, otherwise it would definitely be crowned on Zhang Liao's head by the generals of Zhu Cao. This Yan general almost single-handedly combined with Liu Bei, Zhang Xiu and others to make Cao Cao, who was in Erzhou, into an exiled soldier like him...... In fact, this is Zhang Liao's greatest achievement, as for defeating Xiahou Yuan one after another, it is not worth mentioning compared to this!

Bringing a group of soldiers and horses into the hinterland of the enemy army and stirring up a earth-shaking situation, this is like Cao Cao suddenly sent someone to the northern border of Youji to move and jump for half a year without being defeated, cutting off the two counties from contact, how powerful is this?

There was no other way, on the way to pursue, Li Dian and Le Jin lost more than 1,000 soldiers and horses, and there were not many troops left in their hands, so they could only flee north again, this time their target was Jiyin County, Cao Ren who was left behind in Jiyin County.

This is a coincidence, Zhang Liao also thinks so. The only force of the Cao army that was exposed to the ears and eyes of the Yan clan was Cao Ren's department. Zhang Liao had not participated in Yanbei's military discussion in Jiyin County at the beginning of the year, and everything he knew was an order assigned to him by Yanbei, and he did not know that Yanbei did not want to defeat Cao Ren...... On the contrary, Zhang Liao thought that the war in Jiyin County was in full swing, and it was a good time for him to go north!

In fact, it is almost the same, Cao Ren of Yanbei did not fight Jiyin County because he gathered superior forces to suppress Cao Cao on the whole line, and he would not seek a breakthrough until the last time was right, and what Zhang Liao was thinking about at the moment was to create the right time.

What's more, Zhang Liao must defeat Cao Ren, he has a lot of troops, but the grain and grass he carries is not sufficient, he needs to let Bei Yan, who stayed in Changyi, Shanyang County, transport the grain and grass in the process of confrontation with Cao Ren, otherwise even if he loots some grain in Liang State, it will be difficult to survive ten days and a half months.

Zhang Liao and Li Dianle entered aside, on the second day after they left Peiguo, the two armies entered the border of Peiguo almost simultaneously. Xiahoudun and Cao Hong led the troops into Qiaoxian, passed through Xiahouyuan's last battlefield at noon, the corpses of Cao's army everywhere were being buried by the people of Qiaoxian, after asking about the situation, Xiahoudun heard the news that Xiahouyuan was beheaded, and he sent a message to Cao Cao to report his funeral.

Immediately following Cao's army, more than 10,000 troops marched eastward, searching for traces of Zhang Liaobu.

On the other hand, the Wuhuan kings such as Su Fuyan and Gujin led Wuhuan to ride 20,000 troops from Pengchengguo into the direction of Peiguo Xiangxian, and heard that the Xiangxian soldiers had galloped west to help Zhang Liaobu, so they hurriedly led troops to continue to the west, in order to lend a helping hand to them. Yanbei sent them here to prepare for Zhang Liao's war, but now that they have not arrived, Zhang Liao has already started a war with Cao's army, which is not good news for them.

This brings clarity to the situation. Neither side has the wisdom and strategy of Zhang Liao and Chen Gong to cooperate and complement each other, nor do they intend to use power to win. In order to find the murderer of the clan brother, and two generals who were secretly anxious to delay the war due to the delay of the soldiers and horses in the army, led two teams of soldiers and horses to collide in one place without exception.

In the vast and long plains of Peiguo, a huge war is about to break out.

Xiahoudun's strategy is average, and there are unstoppable bravery on the battlefield, but this is not actually his strength, his strength lies in political strategy, if it weren't for the mess of the situation by Zhang Liao, he, the general of Tuntian, would not have led his troops out to fight. But now that the fields are gone, where is Xiahoudun still in the field? We can only clear the states and counties first, and then reorganize the political affairs.

And Cao Hong, who was with Xiahoudun, was also in a similar situation, he was a veteran general who followed Cao Cao in the early years of his southern expedition to the north, but even so, he still showed a worried look at the place where the battle was going on, "Yuan Rang, our opponent is the Wuhuan soldiers?" ”

At present, the spring breeze is blowing, but the Central Plains region still carries the slight chill of the middle of winter last year, but looking at the boundless enemy formation on the battlefield, Cao Hong only feels hot and dry. Most of the Wuhuan soldiers wore fur armor or fur armor, and at first glance, in addition to the eye-catching leopard-tailed long flags, there were patches of fluffy enemies riding on horses, which looked extremely alarming.

People are afraid of the unknown, even famous generals.

Because Yanbei has always been isolated in the north, none of the generals of the Cao clan has really fought with the Wuhuan soldiers except Cao Ren, and Cao Ren, as the only Cao general who fought with the Wuhuan cavalry, was defeated miserably in the battle that occurred in Puyang, and the 60,000 people were almost exhausted.

Even if he knew that the battle was an accident, it made people inevitably ask themselves, if it was he who was guarding Puyang at that time, could he win?

The answer is mostly no.

The Wuhuan soldiers in Puyang at that time were 5,000 Wuhuan cavalry under the captain Yan Zhi. And now, the huge army array in front of Cao Hong and Xiahoudun has a total of 20,000 Wuhuan soldiers, and it is really impossible to see the edge. During the march, he suddenly got a report from the scouts in front of him and found the enemy situation in front of him, and when he came back to his senses, he found that the mountains were full of Wuhuan soldiers, not to mention how frustrating this mood was.

There was an eerie silence on the battlefield, and the Wuhuan army was about the same, and he suddenly raised the king's whip and pointed westward, his face full of surprise, "There is no trace of General Zhang ahead, we have met the enemy, Cao Mengde's subordinates?" ”

Zhang Liao, Zhang Liao let people die?

"It's going to happen." Su Fuyan straddled and rubbed a pair of big hands on the horse, he was already old, no longer had the spirit of his earlier prime, and his once resolute face was full of philistine, "General Zhang's invincible spirit was broken by Cao Jun, just rely on us, can we do it?" Or run, they won't be able to catch up! ”

The hemp rod beats the wolf, and the two ends are afraid!
