Three Kingdoms: I, the eldest son of Cao, a loving father of a great man!

Chapter 252 Yuan Benchu, You Are Really Improper! 【Please subscribe and ask for a monthly ticket】

The morning light is slightly bright, and the sky is getting brighter.

It was only dawn at this time.

It stands to reason that, except for those soldiers who stand guard at night or get up early to handle chores, most of the other soldiers should still be in a restful sleep and continue to fall asleep.

However, it is located in the south of Nangong County at the moment.

Under the cover of the sky, Cao Jun's camp was already busy and noisy.

Under the command of generals and schools at all levels, the soldiers in the army were busy with division of labor, and all kinds of equipment and facilities were moved outside from the tents.

"Is the refusal horse over there ready?"

"Reporting to the general, all the horses have been placed properly. According to your instructions, the other three sides are well-distributed, only the north side is quite loose and sparse!"

"Very well, what about the caltrops?"

"It has been spread, and the location is just a few days ago. In front of the trenches I dug, we can ensure that the enemy's horses will step on these barbed wire before they arrive!"

"Okay! Let the brothers hurry up and deal with some breakfast, and you will have the strength to kill the enemy later!"

Sounds like these came and went one after another in the barracks. Generals and soldiers could be seen running around non-stop.

In short, both are preparing for war.

At this moment, Cao Ang is located at the high platform of the Chinese army.

Looking around at the scene like a big construction site, he couldn't help showing a look of relief on his face.

After intelligence came from the front yesterday, saying that Gongsun Zan's rear army had arrived, Cao Ang made urgent deployment and mobilization.

Considering that Gongsun Zan's army had come all the way from afar, it must have been galloping all the way, and it was a tired army anyway. It was impossible to launch an attack on his side as soon as it arrived in Nangong County.

At the same time, this is a huge war with tens of thousands of people. If you want to play night raids, you have to pay attention to the elite rather than the number of troops.

After considering the above, Cao Ang decided that Gongsun Zan would launch a full-scale attack on the second day, that is, before noon today.

So last night, Cao Ang ordered the whole army to rest early, and got up early today, and started to prepare for the battle in a spirited manner.

……

"General, news has come from Han Zhoumu and Yuan Taishou, saying that they have arranged their troops and are ready to fight."

"Once a war breaks out, they will be able to enter the battlefield as quickly as possible!"

Cao Ang nodded immediately when he heard the words.

I already know this.

To put it bluntly, the strategic goal of this battle is for the three parties to work together to contend and even defeat Gongsun Zan.

But Cao Ang can't guarantee how effective the other two parties will be.

He didn't place too many chips on Yuan Shao and the others, he just hoped that the two parties could help him share the pressure a little bit, even if they each diverted some of the cavalry, it would be a great help to Cao Ang.

Didn't say much on the matter.

Cao Ang just pointed to the horse-repelling array that had been set up ahead, as well as the barbed caltrops that had been laid in front of the trench, and then gave Cao Ren instructions.

"Zixiao, your task will be the most important later on. I deliberately set up such a refusal formation to lure the enemy to attack from the north."

"The caltrops are also used to slow down the enemy army, but these are only used routinely. It is absolutely impossible to use these to fight against tens of thousands of cavalry. The real killer must be our shield light mirror."

"Your task is to find the best time to strike. You can't be too far apart, and you can't let the enemy rush in front of you. Just moderate. Order the soldiers to flip their shields and catch the enemy by surprise!"

Although this task was mentioned last night.

But Cao Ren, who was neatly dressed in armor, nodded solemnly.

"General, don't worry, the general will save!"

After explaining to Cao Ren.

For Zhang Liao, Cao Chun and others on the left and right, Cao Ang only made a slight gesture, and after a little gesture, he didn't say anything more.

The reason why I especially told Cao Ren.

It was entirely because the mission he shouldered was so important, it was related to the victory or defeat of this war.

Compared with Cao Ren's heavy responsibilities, the other generals and even Cao Ang himself did not have so much to do.

……

When the sun is three poles.

Located in the north of Nangong County, on a wasteland on the south bank of Jiangshui, Gongsun's army has gathered here impressively.

While Cao Ang and the others were busy preparing, Gongsun Zan did not rest, but also let the soldiers cross the river early, and set off directly from here later, without any obstacles in between.

At this moment, Gongsun Zan was riding on a tall horse with a golden helmet on his head and a solemn expression on his face.

In front of him were several major generals and the spies who galloped back just now.

"What is the current situation of Cao Jun and Gongsun Jun's camps, have you ever found out?"

Facing the inquiry of his own marshal.

The spy hurriedly bowed and replied: "Report to the general, according to our investigation, the three camps in the south have all made moves."

"Yuan Shao's army and Han Fu's army seem to have frequently mobilized troops, while Cao's army even gathered soldiers and placed many repelling horses around the camp in a panic."

Hear this.

Not only was Gongsun Zan not surprised, but he was overjoyed.

There was a bit of a smile on his face, as if he was in control and confident.

"What a Cao Zixiu, he really is a young hero. I knew that the arrival of the cavalry could not be hidden from him."

"It's just that even if he knows, what can he do? How well can he prepare in such a hurry in half a morning?"

"Reject the horse, hey!"

"If only this thing can withstand the sharpness of the cavalry, then the cavalry should have withdrawn from the battlefield long ago, and they have been galloping so far!"

……

In Gongsun Zan's thoughts.

It should be yesterday that Cao Ang knew that he had an army coming. After all, at that time, there was indeed a lot of noise.

As long as Cao Ang, Yuan Shao and others keep an eye on themselves, it is basically impossible to hide this matter from the past, and Cao Jun's movements today just prove this point.

But Gongsun Zan was right.

At best, it only took half a day, and he was still in this wilderness, no matter how great his supernatural powers were, it was impossible to conjure up a strategy to deal with the cavalry for nothing.

Engage in some small tricks and tricks.

It's nothing more than delaying defeat.

Today's battle, I, Gongsun Zan, will definitely win!
The arrogance in his chest was dry, and the aura of the whole person became straight into the sky for a while.

He glanced at the generals under his command, and then said in a loud voice.

"Yan Gang!"

"The end is here!"

"For this battle, I will hand over all the [-] cavalry under my command to your command. You don't need to pay attention to Yuan Shao and Han Fu, just lead your troops to charge directly to the camp where Cao Jun is."

"Cao Zixiu is the core figure of Yuan Shao and other three-party alliances. As long as he withdraws from the battlefield, the alliance against our army will naturally be broken without attack!"

"I will grant you the right to make decisions on the fly. What tactics to adopt depends on the specific situation on the battlefield. You don't need to send someone to ask me for instructions!"

"I only ask for one thing, and that is to use the cavalry to break through Cao Jun's defenses and trample them fiercely. It is necessary to fight to break Cao Jun's morale!"

Gongsun Zan's tone was impassioned.

Even the generals under his command were deeply infected.

As the commander of the cavalry, Yan Gang even bowed down and replied in a loud voice.

"Don't worry, general, the last general will fulfill his mission, and promise to make Cao's army collapse and flee. From now on, he will never dare to be an enemy of our army again!"

Get the assurance of your generals.

A smile appeared on Gongsun Zan's serious face, and he immediately waved his hand.

"In that case, let's go!"

……

Its sound is booming, and its shadow is flickering.

The mighty running of a full [-] cavalry can be described as earth-shattering, like the toppling of mountains and rivers, and the churning of the four seas.

A few miles around Nangong County as the center.

The ground tremors were felt strongly.

Whether they were in the city or on the wasteland, all the people around Nangong County felt the might of the sky falling apart.

If you stand on the tower of Nangong City and watch.

It can be seen from north to south.

A billow of smoke and dust swept in.

Covering the sky and the sun, and covering one side, you can only vaguely see the black shadows in the smoke and dust, but you can't see the specific ones clearly.

Since Cao's army was located in the south of Nangong County, it was the farthest distance from Gongsun Zan's camp.

And as early as a few days ago, Cao Ang had strengthened the training of the soldiers under his command regarding the cavalry charge, and it was more or less effective.

Therefore, for this overwhelming power, the feelings are a little lighter, and the faces of the soldiers are at most just a little anxious.

But Yuan Shao and others were in the army.

The situation is a little less good.

A veteran who has experienced many wars all year round, his psychological quality is still passable, and he can cope with such a situation a little bit, so that he will not behave too much.

But those newcomers who have only experienced one or two wars and have very little experience in fighting cavalry can really only be described as "unbearable".

All of them were pale.

Even under the vibration of the ground, his footsteps were a little stilted, as if he was stepping on clouds and fog.

……

At this moment, Yuan Shao was also dressed in armor, surrounded by a large group of people.

Looking at the situation in my own army.

His complexion was rather ugly.

Fortunately, he had just found out the news not long ago, knowing that the Youzhou iron cavalry under Gongsun Zan was going straight to Cao Ang, and did not divert them to him.

Otherwise, it would be really hard for Yuan Shao to imagine how he would deal with Gongsun Zan's fine cavalry with the quality of his soldiers.

But at the same time as this idea came up.

Yuan Shao also made up his mind.

That is, we must take advantage of this opportunity to destroy Gongsun Zan's cavalry system.

Even if he can't be broken, his cavalry regiment must be severely damaged.

After all, Gongsun Zan's threat is too great!
If he doesn't stop it, even if he becomes a Jizhou shepherd in the future, as long as Gongsun Zan stays safely in the Youzhou area, he will not live in peace!
On the side of the couch, how can you allow others to sleep soundly.

Not to mention such a tough neighbor.

Who is left, who is not in a panic?

Think about it here.

Yuan Shao immediately said to his general Yan Liang: "Wen Shan, you are now leading [-] soldiers and horses, go to support Cao Zixiu immediately."

"If you can see General Cao, you can just listen to his command. If the battlefield is chaotic and you can't get close, you can decide how to play."

"In short, ensuring that Cao's army is not crushed by Gongsun Zan's cavalry is also a delay for our army!"

Yuan Shao now has a total of [-] soldiers and horses.

This is basically the pressure on his entire family.

In the face of Gongsun Zan's threat, he was able to send out [-] troops to support Cao Ang, which was already a wise move after he understood the gains and losses.

It's just that Yan Liang just agreed.

Haven't had time to act yet.

Feng Ji took a few people and ran over in a hurry from outside the camp, with a look of haste on his face.

"Your Majesty, something is wrong. More than [-] people under Gongsun Zan's command have come to us!"

……

"How many did you say?"

Yuan Shao thought he heard it wrong.

However, Feng Ji once again conveyed the news to his ears with great certainty.

"General, there are indeed more than 2 people. I don't know the exact number of [-]."

"But according to Han Fu's side, only a few thousand Gongsun soldiers came to testify, and our army is facing more than [-] people at least!"

Yuan Shao's mouth twitched violently twice.

Then he couldn't help but curse inwardly.

"Han Fu had an army of more than 1, and Gongsun Zan only sent more than 5000 people to deal with it. On the other hand, here, he overwhelmed all the remaining infantry."

"You really think highly of me!"

The last sentence was said through gritted teeth.

Just after his voice fell.

If there is one matter, we have to discuss it before making another decision.

"Your Majesty, in the opinion of my subordinates, I am afraid that you will let General Yan lead an army of [-] to support Cao Zixiu for now."

"If these more than ten thousand people are removed, then the gap between our army and Gongsun's army will not be widened. Once Gongsun Zan finds out about the situation."

"Reversing the direction of the main attack and attacking our army, it may be a catastrophe for our army!"

"Even if Gongsun Zan didn't realize the truth, but after losing our superiority in strength over Gongsun's army, our army will fall into a head-to-head battle with the enemy. This loss is too great!"

Feng Ji took the lead in putting forward his own suggestion.

That is to sell Cao Ang.

Instead of protecting your allies, you might as well take care of yourself first, and talk about the rest later.

……

However, some people hold positive views, and some people will come up with opposing opinions.

Under Yuan Shao's command, Xu You, who had always been close to the Cao family, categorically opposed it.

"Your Majesty, your lips are dead and your teeth are cold!"

"[-] cavalry, what an earth-shattering force, if there is no support from the army, Cao's army will probably be defeated in an instant."

"And once Cao Jun's support is lost, how can our army deal with Gongsun Zan?"

"This is nothing more than the difference between dying first and dying later. How can you put yourself in danger for the sake of safety for a while!"

Although Yuan Shao has not occupied Jizhou at the moment.

But there are already many counselors under him.

Everyone insisted on their own opinions and talked at one another.

Yuan Shao was directly quarreled and collapsed.

As we all know, once the number of counselors expressing opinions is greater than two, they hold opposite opinions.

Then Yuan Shao could not make up his mind.

He felt that both sides were right.

After thinking twice.

Yuan Shao could only hesitate and said: "Stop arguing, Wen Shan, you lead the army and wait on the left, don't leave our camp for now."

"It depends on the situation at that time!"

……

Yuan Shao's strategy of peace and mud.

It is equivalent to selling Cao Ang.

In fact, he himself knew that what he did was really quite dishonest, especially before the war, when Cao Ang specifically approached him and told him about mutual assistance between the two armies.

But for the safety of his army.

Yuan Shao chose to wait and see for a while.

At this moment, he was staring at the direction of Cao Jun's camp, feeling the vibration of getting closer.

Can't help but let out a long sigh.

Cao Zixiu, ask yourself how lucky you are!
With less than 5000 soldiers and horses, they dealt with [-] cavalry charging strongly.

Even gods can't fight this battle!
The gods have to kneel even when they descend to earth!
What's more, Cao Ang has a mortal body, can he turn the world around and win in one fell swoop?

Yuan Shao didn't believe it!
He could only hope that after a wave of cavalry charges, Cao Jun would not be completely disintegrated.

Otherwise, I would really be able to deal with Gongsun Zan's dangerous situation alone.

Yuan Shao didn't know.

After half a day.

The record shown by Cao Jun.

He will be horrified!
