"When will the cavalry cross the river?" Zhuge Liang asked as he sat down to write orders. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Order Yue Yun and Yan Rou to immediately lead the cavalry along the line of Suozao, Yanjin, and Yancheng, and gallop back and forth along the embankment of the Yellow River, so that the rebels can see our cavalry, and make a gesture to prevent them from crossing the river. Tell Zhao Yun again, and ask him to immediately follow the predetermined plan, and Lady Zhai Ya and Zhai Yu lead the Hu cavalry to cross the river from Qishuikou, and station troops on the front line of Montenegro and Chaoge City to block the rebels' attack on Wei County. ”

Xu Maogong turned his head to look at Zhuge Liang, and said with a smile: "Tell Zhao Yun not to take the initiative to attack the rebels for the time being, just let a small group of cavalry take turns to attack and prevent the rebels from crossing the river to attack." ”

"Before the lord left, he was very worried about these Hu cavalry, and now let Zhao Yun take it to the Black Mountain area, the lord should be relieved." Jia Xu sat behind the desk, took a sip of water slowly, and said with a smile, "Do you want Zhang Yan to cross the chasm water immediately and make way for the rebels to attack Junyi?" After a long time, the casualties of the Fifth Army may be too great. ”

"We must first tell Mrs. Li E and Gao Shun about the situation on the Guandu battlefield, and ask them to immediately retreat to the front line of Chenliu." Xu Maogong said, "If you give up Junyi and Kaifeng too early, Gao Shun may be caught off guard." ”

"Two days, give them two days." Jia Xu stretched out two fingers and shook them, and said lightly, "Let Junyi and Kaifeng's defenders hold on a little longer." ”

"Okay, Feige sent a message to Zhang Yan and Bian Xi, immediately cross the chasm water, withdraw to the east bank of the chasm water, join the armies of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and attack Yuan Shao from the frontal of the Guandu battlefield." Xu Maogong waved his hand and said, "The flying pigeon has sent a message to the defenders of Junyi and Kaifeng, and the time to abandon the city is delayed as much as possible, so as to buy a little more time for Mrs. Li E and Gao Shun to retreat." The defenders in Junyi City withdrew directly to the Guandu battlefield, and the defenders in Kaifeng City withdrew to Chenliu to meet Gaoshun. ”

"The flying pigeon passed the word Gao Shun, the rebels have counterattacked on all fronts, and the moment of decisive battle is approaching. In order to attract more rebels to the Guandu battlefield for a decisive battle, we decided to abandon the line of Xiangyi and Yongqiu, and retreat all the infantry and cavalry troops to Chenliu, so as to make a situation of being divided and surrounded by the rebels, so as to induce the rebels on the southern battlefield to move north at full speed. ”

"Order Lu Wenlong and Yuwen Chengdu to lead the cavalry to hold on both sides of Suishui and Bishui to ensure the safety of the retreat of the army."

"Tell Mrs. Li E and Lu Bu to send 5,000 cavalry to secretly rush to the west bank of the Langtang Canal to hide, and when the rebels' army on the southern battlefield is all attracted to Chenliu, they will immediately run to Xuchang for a long distance, and stab the rebels in the back, forcing Yuan Shao to immediately move his little emperor to Luoyang, forcing Liu Biao to lead his army north to Guandu to participate in the battle. We need to get more rebels to rush to the Guandu battlefield to fight a decisive battle. ”

"It would be nice if we could catch the little emperor of Xuchang." Sima Yi said happily.

"How can there be such a good thing? There are a lot of garrisons around Xuchang, and they are also very strong, so we just went to sneak attack. Jia Xu said with a smile, "The main purpose of our sneak attack on Xuchang is to force Yuan Shao to move the little emperor to Luoyang. Once the coalition army is defeated and the whole line retreats, Liu Biao is very likely to take advantage of Yuan Shao's self-care to kidnap the little emperor to Jingzhou. ”

"In the past few years, we need to recover our strength, we need to do our best to take Guan and Luoquan to take the Central Plains, there is no time to attack Liu Biao in the south, and Liu Biao can use the time of these years to restore and enhance his own strength with the help of the little emperor to order the world, and unite other states and counties to compete with us. When we stabilize the Central Plains in the future, it will be very difficult to calm the world in one go. ”

"Mr. Wenhe is sure that Yuan Shao will take the little emperor to Luoyang?" Zhuge Liang asked worriedly.

Jia Xu looked at Xu Maogong and shook his head, he didn't have any confidence in this, so he said, "We can't be sure either." Although Fu Zhu is now in Xuchang, and Liu Biao does not dare to break with Yuan Shao for the time being, it is difficult for Yuan Shao to figure out, who knows if he will think about usurping the Han Dynasty and becoming self-reliant when the situation on the battlefield in Guandu is very good, and he is unwilling to move the little emperor to Luoyang. ”

"In the past few years, we have to fight Guan and Luo, if the little emperor is in Luoyang, we can solve it by taking advantage of the situation." Xu Maogong said, "Without the little emperor, it will be a big blow to Liu Biao and Liu Bei, and in the future, when the situation is more and more favorable to us, they may give up re-establishing the imperial system, and instead be appeased and return to the imperial court, so that the time for us to calm the world will be greatly reduced, otherwise it will ......"

"Unless they're dead, don't even think about it." Jia Xu sneered, "If these people were willing to respect the imperial court, how could there be a crusade against Dong Zhuo and the chaos of the society back then?" If these people are not killed, the world will never be at peace. ”

Xu Maogong looked at Jia Xu with an angry face, thinking of the plight of Dong Zhuo and those Xiliang people under him back then, and sighed secretly. Although Jia Xu followed the lord early, he was from Xiliang after all, and he also had some friendship with Dong Zhuo in his early years.

It is a fact that Dong Zhuo has a monopoly on power, and it is also a fact that Yuan Shao formed an alliance to fight against Dong, whether it was Dong Zhuo's monopoly on power that caused chaos in the society, or Yuan Shao's alliance against Dong and caused chaos in the society, who can say?

Sima Yi looked at Jia Xu in surprise. Jia Xu has always been very gentle, like a kind elder who has no temper, and it is the first time he has seen him speak with such a gritted teeth and murderous voice like today.

"Mr. Mao Gong, when will we give up on Chen Liu?" Zhuge Liang asked suddenly.

"Wait for the cavalry that rushed to Xuchang to return to the west bank of the Suishui River." Xu Maogong said, "Evacuating too early will put the cavalry attacking Xuchang in danger, and I don't want to make the slightest mistake at this time." ”

"In addition, tell Xun Yu of Changyi City, Chen Gong of Rencheng that the decisive battle is taking shape, please be careful to guard against the Xuzhou army in the south, and don't have an accident at this critical time."

"Okay, the decisive battle has begun, and the moment of the great Han Zhongxing has come......" Xu Maogong suddenly opened his arms and roared, "Come on, fight, raise our swords, and kill ......"

………………

In the blink of an eye, the time had come to the beginning of August in the fourth year of Jian'an in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the battlefields were in full swing, and the battle was extremely fierce.

On the battlefield of Guandu, the two sides fought back and forth on both sides of the chasm water, and the chasm water was full of floating corpses, and blood stained the river red.

Yuan Shao and Cao Cao went to the front line to supervise the battle. At present, every effort must be made to contain the main force of the Northern Xinjiang Army in the chasm, otherwise the attacks on the eastern and western flanks may fall short.

Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Tai Shici, Xu Huang, Lu Yi and others also stood on the front line of the chasm water and commanded the soldiers to fight. Tai Shici even disregarded the dissuasion, and personally worked with Xu Huang to forcibly break through the chasm with three thousand soldiers and kill the enemy directly.

………………

On the battlefield of Hanoi, Sima Ju held on to Huaicheng for two days and quickly retreated 200 li. Gao Gan and Zhang Nan took the lead and led the army to chase wildly.

Most of Sima Ju's men were newly recruited soldiers, and after two days of bloody fierce fighting, they were already exhausted, and their bodies and minds were on the verge of collapse. Under the frantic pursuit of the rebels, many soldiers could not hold on and fell behind, and were brutally killed by the rebels.

Sima Ju was angry and scolded non-stop. He didn't scold the rebels, but Xu Maogong.

In the past, when he was in Qingzhou, he fought a lot of defeats, and he was accustomed to defeating battles. But since the surrender of Li Yi, he has always won battles, and they have all won big battles. Now that more than ten years have passed, how could he have fought such a wretched war?

The Guandu battlefield is only more than 200 miles away from Yanjindu, and the river is full of large ships transporting grain, as long as Xu Maogong casually sends a cavalry to support Hanoi, and now he has arrived, so that he will not let himself be so embarrassed, let alone let many innocent soldiers lose their lives in vain.

It's just that he can only scold Xu Maogong behind his back, except to vent his resentment, it can't play any role at all. After scolding, he could only continue to run away with his subordinates.

Sima Ju had just arrived at Huojia, and Gao Gan arrived with hundreds of cavalry.

Since the Northern Xinjiang Army began to attack Henan, the senior cadres have been repeatedly frustrated, Puyang, Baima, Pingyang, Yancheng, successive defeats, 20,000 troops have been fought until now. Gao Gan gritted his teeth with hatred for the Northern Xinjiang Army, and this time he finally seized the opportunity, how could he let it go? Therefore, the Overseers are in hot pursuit.

Sima Ju stood on the city tower, scolded the eight generations of the ancestors of the high cadres, and then shouted helplessly in a hoarse voice: "Withdraw ......"

He can't even see the shadow of reinforcements, what if he doesn't withdraw?

Sima Ju and his men ran for more than 300 miles in a row, and finally retreated into Chaoge City.

After Liu Bei entered Ji County, he stopped. He ordered Gao Gan to continue the pursuit with 10,000 men, and the troops came to the city of Song. He ordered Gao Rou and Zhang Nan to Yanjin to cross, make a gesture of crossing the river, and forced the Northern Xinjiang Army on the Guandu battlefield to return to help. He rushed to Qingshuikou with 10,000 people.

Standing on the ferry, looking at the surging Yellow River, Liu Bei couldn't help but look up to the sky and howl, sweeping away the depression and pain of the past few months.

"As long as we reach the other side, we can cut off the retreat of the Northern Xinjiang Army and encircle them in the area of the Gulf Water and the Jishui River." Sun Gan pointed to the other side, and he was also in high spirits, "We regained Hanoi in only five days, and it seems that the Northern Xinjiang Army is tired of fighting, and it doesn't even want its own flanks." ”

"Urgently tell the general Yuan Shao, ask him to write to Luoyang, and immediately transfer ships to the line of Yanjindu and Qingshuikou, we will cross the Yellow River." Liu Bei raised his horsewhip and said with a laugh.

At this moment, a puff of smoke and dust suddenly rolled up from the sky, and then the thunderous sound of horses' hooves jumped across the Yellow River with the wind, rushing straight in, and an iron horse descended from the sky like a divine soldier, Huo Ran appeared in front of Liu Bei's eyes.

"Northern Cavalry ......," the soldiers on the embankment exclaimed.

"They're finally here." Liu Bei pulled out a volley and shouted excitedly, "They have finally left the Guandu battlefield." (To be continued.) )
