Great Military Division

Chapter 179 The Battle of Bian Shui!Cao Cao changed his life against the sky!

Outside Sishui Pass.

Xingyang, Bianshui.

Actually.

Bianshui is not a natural river.

It is also called Bianqu, which was dug by Wei State during the Warring States Period, connecting the Yellow River, Jishui, and Huaihe River systems.

In addition, it is also called Guandu Water.

That's right!

It is the Guandu of the Battle of Guandu in history.

The fateful battle between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao took place along this canal.

Today, Cao Cao's march to this point also ushered in a change of fate.

"Report~~~"

Not far away, Yiqi Juechen came.

Cao Cao raised his eyes and saw that the scout Pegasus was coming, bowed his body and cupped his hands: "My lord, there are traces of soldiers from Xiliang on the banks of the Bianshui River, and the strength of the soldiers is unknown."

hiss~~~
Cao Cao was stunned when he heard this, and was very surprised: "The soldiers from Xiliang are not at Sishui Pass, but they appeared in the Bianshui area? Fortunately, they were discovered early, otherwise we would have had to wipe out our entire army in this battle."

Historically, it was Xu Rong who was stationed here, and Xu Rong was cautious by nature, and he grasped every point extremely well. Cao Cao hurried westward, and this plan was defeated.

but at this time
Hu Zhen has been replaced by the arrogant Hu Zhen as the general. He has never taken the princes of the Kanto East seriously, so he is far less cautious than Xu Rong in his style of conduct. This is how he exposed his whereabouts to Cao Cao.

Knowing that there were Xiliang soldiers in front of him, Cao Cao was naturally very careful and did not dare to go deep at will.

After all, these men and horses in his hands are already all his capital, once he loses, his entire army will be wiped out.

Bao Xin nodded slowly: "Yes, Hu Zhen has a garrison in Bianshui, which is beyond our expectation, Meng De, what should we do next? You decide, I'll listen to you."

Cao Cao nodded, "Thank you, Yuncheng."

After pondering for a while, Cao Cao immediately gave an order: "Command! All scouts in the general should be sent out. Be sure to find out the movement, strength, and general situation of Xiliang soldiers in the direction of Bianshui. Once there is news, report it immediately without any mistakes."

The messenger cupped his hands: "No."

"Zixiao."

"exist."

"Quickly call all the battalion leaders over, let's discuss how this battle should go?"

"promise."

All the scouts are dispatched.

The enemy situation in the direction of Bianshui was quickly found out.

After Cao Cao had enough information, his grasp of the battle situation became clearer.

"From the current point of view, the Xiliang soldiers in the direction of Bianshui should have not found any trace of our army."

"If my guess is correct, the opponent's general should be Dong Zhuo's general Hu Zhen."

"I have some understanding of this person. He is definitely a good fighter in war, brave and good at fighting, but his temperament is too arrogant. This is his fatal flaw, and it is also the key to our defeating the enemy."

"."

Cao Cao briefly analyzed the current situation and the intelligence he had.

All the soldiers are looking forward to it, waiting to make contributions, and the fighting spirit is extremely high.

"Lord!"

General Cao Ren became more confident after hearing the current situation: "Just give the order, and we will all follow your arrangements. Although our strength is small, all the brothers believe in your strength."

"That's right!"

General Xia Houdun nodded affirmatively: "My lord, the last general followed you a few years ago. When we crusaded against the Yellow Turbans, we knew your ability. Don't worry about commanding. Even if the enemy is outnumbered, we will have nothing to fear! "

All the soldiers nodded in agreement:
"That's right, we're here to ask for directors. Since we met, it's bad luck for them."

"We are ready, and the lord orders it."

"Yes! My lord ordered it."

"."

Cao Cao took a deep breath and looked at the affirmative faces of all the soldiers. He was very excited: "Okay! Everyone is working together, so why not defeat Hu Zhenpifu."

"I think so!"

Immediately.

Cao Cao's eyes fell on the map, and he calmly analyzed the situation: "Judging from the strength of the troops alone, the gap between the two sides is very large. If you want to defeat Hu Zhen, you must use suspicious tactics!"

"Suspect soldier?"

Cao Ren frowned and asked curiously, "How do you suspect soldiers?"

Cao Cao had long thought about it: "Where is Zixu?"

Weitz nodded: "The end is here."

"You gather the horses that pull the grain, and fix them with dead branches on the tails of the horses. When the battle starts in the direction of Bianshui, you gallop the horses, stirring up dust in the sky, and pretending to be allies to come to support."

"promise."

"also."

Cao Cao turned to glance at the map again: "If you want to defeat the Xiliang Xiaoqi, you must lead them to the Bianshui River, where the muddy land will make the horses get stuck in the quagmire and cannot run fast. This is the key to our army's victory over the enemy. "

"Yuan Rang, Miao Cai."

"The end is here."

"Lead a thousand soldiers and horses as the vanguard and march towards Sishuiguan. If you encounter Xiliang Xiaoqi's interception, immediately feign defeat and flee, and lead them here as quickly as possible."

Cao Cao put his finger on the map, and his eyes were full of murderous intent: "Don't worry, Yuncheng and I will tie up our pockets here in advance, as long as Xiliang Xiaoqi dares to come in, we will guarantee that he will never come back, whether he will die or not live." .”

Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan nodded together: "Don't worry, my lord, I will understand in the end."

"Ah."

Cao Cao responded, and then said, "Zi Xiao, Zi Lian."

"The end is here."

"If you want to limit the mobility of the cavalry, you can't do it only by relying on the wetlands in the direction of Bianshui. The most important thing is to have roadblocks, and you can successfully get stuck here."

Cao Cao continued to deduce the battle situation in his mind, pointing to the forest on the map: "This forest can be used to ambush soldiers. You emptied all the food, and then brought the grain trucks to come here to ambush."

"Remember!"

Cao Cao emphatically reminded: "The strong and strong push the grain cart, and the crossbowmen follow closely behind, attack and kill with arrows, and cover the charge of the grain cart. Once Yuan Rang and Miaocai attract Xiliang Xiaoqi, they must use the shortest Time, clamp it down."

Cao Ren and Cao Hong clasped their hands together and said, "No."

Finally, Cao Cao carefully deduced the battle situation in his mind, and after confirming that there is no problem, he waved his hand and said: "In that case, let's go back and prepare."

All the soldiers saluted again: "No."

This is the first battle since discussing Dong.

It is a battle to prove the strength to the princes!
As long as they can achieve impressive results in this battle, why worry about not having a bright future.

After about two hours.

On the official road leading to Sishui Pass.

Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan led a thousand soldiers and horses, and marched forward slowly.

They walked slowly, always vigilant about their surroundings, guarding against possible dangers.

Outside the Sishui Pass is the Yingtai Highland.

Except for the forest, everything is Hirakawa wilderness.

Such terrain is conducive to cavalry charging, but it is not conducive to cavalry ambush.

Therefore, cavalry raids are often hundreds of feet away, and they have already entered the combat zone.

Under such circumstances, for Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan, the degree of difficulty of guarding against danger will increase significantly.

They can only rely on scouts, distance themselves, and conduct tentative reconnaissance.

as predicted!

It was really stabbed into a hornet's nest by them.

swoosh~~~
Just as Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan rode their horses slowly.

A cloud-piercing arrow suddenly lifted into the sky.

Xia Houyuan looked up.

But I saw a fast horse galloping all the way, shouting at the top of its lungs: "There are Xiliang soldiers, retreat quickly~~~"

At the end of the wilderness as far as the eye can see, a torrent of smoke and dust rolled in, drowning Cao Jun's scouts in an instant, roaring towards it with overwhelming momentum.

"Quick retreat~~~"

Xiahou Dun shouted at the top of his voice.

All the soldiers had been prepared for a long time, and immediately threw away their helmets and armor, and fled in despair.

"Hahaha!"

The fierce Xiliang general who was chasing him looked up to the sky and laughed wildly. Ma Qian pointed forward angrily, and taunted: "See? This is the team of the Kanto princes!"

"They're all cowards, nothing to be afraid of!"

"brothers!"

The Xiliang fierce general bared his teeth and roared like a bell, "Follow me and kill this gang of Kanto rats. Take their heads and ask for credit from the general. You will get a reward from both of them. Go drink!"

"Hoo~~Hoo~~Hoo~~"

"Hoohoo~~"

Xiliang Xiaoqi galloped wildly, brandishing a saber, let out a mocking growl, and with a murderous aura, chased after the defeated army fleeing in the desert.

A group of timid infantry, in front of Xiliang Xiaoqi, was almost no different from a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. They only needed to charge and kill them all.

"Quick~~"

Xia Houyuan shouted sharply: "Retreat towards Bianshui, Xiliang thieves will not dare to chase!"

Xiahou Dun also echoed with a loud voice: "Quickly retreat to Bianshui, quickly retreat~~"

"Bian Shui?"

The leading Xiliang fierce general was somewhat surprised when he heard these two words.

Forests, wetlands, swamps, etc., are all known as dead cavalry.

but
This is under the premise that the opponent has an ambush.

But now, he was chasing and killing a group of rout soldiers. Even if it was by the Bianshui River, no matter how slow a four-legged horse was, it would definitely be faster than a two-legged man. This was obvious.

"Humph!"

The Xiliang fierce general snorted softly, dismissing this: "Do you really think that such and such can scare my vanguard commander, Hua Xiong? Today I will show you the true strength of Xiliang Xiaoqi."

"brothers!"

Hua Xiong was full of fighting spirit, he waved his hand fiercely: "Follow me to kill~~~"

All the soldiers shouted together: "Kill~~~"

Boom~~
The sound of hoofs rolled away.

After a while, Hua Xiong led his troops in pursuit to the banks of the Bianshui River.

as predicted!

This is just a wetland, no ambushes.

Hua Xiong was triumphant, he thought he was sure of his opponent, let alone cared about it, and continued to pursue and kill him.

but
When the war horse fell into the wetland, its speed dropped sharply.

Suddenly, the rout in front stopped fleeing.

The leading generals Xia Houdun and Xia Houyuan attacked from left to right.

clang!clang!
Hua Xiong made a bold move, knocking away one side's weapon and at the same time blocked the other side's attack: "Hmph! This time I know I can't run away, do you want to fight to the death?"

"Humph!"

Xiahou Dun snorted softly, with a smile on his face.

He tried his best to dislodge Hua Xiong's weapon, and the iron spear in his hand twirled around his waist, and from another direction, he went straight to Hua Xiong's weak defense ribs: "Die to me!"

clang~~
Unfortunately, Hua Xiong's reaction was extremely fast.

He pulled back his horse sharply, placed the pole across his side, and accurately blocked Xiahou Dun's attack: "Hmph! With your martial arts, you still want to kill me, Hua Xiong?"

"Unbelievable!"

As soon as the words fell, a voice suddenly sounded: "And me?"

huh~~
In oblique thorns.

Like a spirit snake, the big iron spear protruded, aimed straight at Hua Xiong's huge head, and stabbed straight: "Xilian offal, take a shot at me, Xia Houyuan."

The wind blows.

Hua Xiong could clearly feel the power contained in the opponent's spear.

However, Hua Xiong, who has experienced many battles, has already developed resistance to this, and even knows how to resolve it at a glance.

His body twisted slightly on the horse, and the horse lance in his palm swung in an arc. While sweeping away Xiahou Dun's weapon, he placed the horse lance in front of him.

Leng Leng Leng ~~
The point of the gun was close to the horse, drawing a distance, accompanied by sparks flickering.

Hua Xiong was quite confident in his martial arts, he raised his head and said mockingly: "With your ability alone, you are still far away from wanting Hua Xiong's life!"

The voice just fell.

swoosh~~
Another cloud-piercing arrow took off into the sky.

Hua Xiong was stunned, he looked up at the sky, his heart was not good.

"Kill it~~~"

In the next second, a strong shout of killing sounded.

In the forest not far from the Bianshui River, Wu Yangyang killed dozens of grain trucks.

Grain carts were piled with withered grass, which was burning fiercely.

Two strong men on the left and right were pushing the grain cart, rushing towards the river frantically.

"Is this enough?"

Xia Houyuan grinned, full of confidence.

Hua Xiong was so frightened that his face turned green, his eyes stared like bells, and his hair stood on end.

He knew the real purpose of the other party's move at a glance.

present.

Without hesitation, Hua Xiong gave an order: "Stop the grain carts, stop the grain~~~"

However, just as Xiliang Xiao rode his horse and turned around.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
Another wave of arrow rain struck from behind the grain truck.

Immediately afterwards, the grain cart carrying raging fire rushed towards the rear of Xiliang Xiaoqi, like a huge pair of pliers, clamping down on Xiliang Xiaoqi's team.

"Kill~~~"

Cao Cao gave an order.

Without hesitation, all the soldiers made a bold move.

The situation was reversed in an instant, and the arrogant Xiliang Xiaoqi was being ruthlessly crushed by Cao Cao.

Clang!Clang!Clang!
Jin Ming exploded, sparks splashed.

In the blink of an eye.

Hua Xiong fought Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan for twenty rounds.

but
His heart has long been affected by the battlefield situation, and it is impossible to devote himself to the battlefield.

Hua Xiong braced Xiahou Dun's weapon and was about to pull his horse and turn around.

In oblique thorns.

Xia Houyuan's iron spear struck again.

puff~~
The tip of the spear pierced through the armor and went straight into Hua Xiong's shoulder blade.

"Ah~~~"

Hua Xiong was in pain, his voice was hoarse.

But at this moment, Xiahou Dun's iron spear struck again.

puff~~
The sound of piercing flesh sounded.

The cold and sharp iron spear pierced Hua Xiong's weak defense ribs, pierced through half of his body, and came out from the direction of his spine. The blood-stained spear head was filled with awe-inspiring aura, which completely wiped out Hua Xiong's last trace of resistance. will.

"The thief general is dead~~"

"The thief general is dead~~"

"."

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Cao Cao shouted hoarsely, boosting morale, and at the same time launched the final siege of Xiliang Xiaoqi: "Brothers, kill the Xiliang thieves!"

"Kill~~~"

Cao Jun's morale soared, and he rushed to kill with his guns, desperate.

However.
Cao Cao turned his head and stared at Xiliang Xiaoqi who came to support him, his heart beating wildly.

If the strategy of suspicious soldiers cannot succeed, then no matter how well they played before, it will not have the slightest effect.

This is the ultimate duel of scheming!

Pfft!
Pfft!
Pfft!
Cao Cao's heart was beating wildly, his body was trembling slightly, and he was sweating suddenly. The small eyes under his eyebrows were also staring like copper bells, staring at the enemy in front of him.

slowly.

Xiliang Xiaoqi in the distance stopped.

At this moment, Cao Cao knew that the strategy of suspicious soldiers had worked.

Without hesitation, he pointed his sword at the sky, hysterical:
"Brothers, reinforcements are behind us."

"Fight to the death with Xiliang Xiaoqi!"

"Kill~~~"

The sound was like a bell, and it sounded like a thunder.

Although there were only a few thousand Cao Jun, they shouted with the momentum of tens of thousands.

Wherever he looked, Xiliang Xiaoqi retreated slowly and disappeared without a trace in an instant.

huh~~~
Cao Cao breathed a sigh of relief, and his heart was finally relieved.

He greeted, "Where is Zixiao?"

Cao Ren rushed over: "My lord!"

"Quickly send someone to send a message to the allied army, saying that I, Cao Cao, defeated Xiliang's Xiaoqi vanguard in Bianshui, Xingyang, and killed his vanguard general Hua Xiong. .”

"what?"

Cao Ren was stunned, puzzled: "My lord, in this case, wouldn't the jujube princes rush to attack?"

Cao Cao rolled his eyes at Cao Ren: "Nonsense! Do you really think that we can take Sishui Pass? I just let them attack, otherwise how can we take Sishui Pass!"

Among the princes stationed in Yanjin, Cao Cao is the weakest one.

Now, even he can defeat Xiliang Xiaoqi's vanguard. Doesn't it prove that Sishuiguan is empty and Xiliang Xiaoqi is nothing to fear?

Discussing Dong's military exploits is right in front of his eyes, how can these guys turn a blind eye?
hehe~~~
Cao Cao was secretly happy.

Kuangfu Han Dynasty is now!
"Yuan Rang, Miao Cai."

"exist."

"Clean the battlefield quickly and change the equipment for the brothers."

"promise!"

Bao Xin pinched a short beard under his jaw, and looked at Cao Cao with great interest: "Meng De, I did not misread you."

Cao Cao replied with a light smile: "It is a great honor to be trusted by Yuncheng!"

　It's long overdue, but I hope you won't be disappointed
