The Three Kingdoms are invincible

Chapter 24 Attacking Xuzhou

In the end, Cao Cao did not follow Guo Jia's advice and decided to send troops to Xuzhou.

Gao Shun was left in Dongjun City in Yanzhou. When his camp was first established, it had a force of [-] troops. After this period of development, it now has a total of [-] soldiers.Although the newly recruited [-] soldiers are not as good as the old soldiers in quality, they have also undergone hell-like rigorous training, so their combat effectiveness is also first-class and powerful.This time when they attacked Xuzhou, Cao Cao mobilized all the veterans of the [-] trapped camps and put them under the command of Xia Houyuan, leaving only the [-] new recruits for Gao Shun to continue to practice.

Cao Cao has been serving as the shepherd of Yanzhou since then, and he has continued to mobilize his troops. At this time, he has a total of 2 troops.In this attack on Xuzhou, Cao Cao mobilized an army of 2 in one fell swoop, with Xia Houyuan, Zhao Yun, and Le Jin commanding 1 troops as the front, Cao Ren and Cao Hong leading [-] troops as the central army, and Xu Rong, Li Dian, and Yu Jin commanding [-] troops as the rear. In the army, Guo Jia, Xi Zhicai, Liu Ye, Man Chong, Lu Qian and other advisers all joined the army.

As for the rear of Yanzhou, Xiahoudun and Cheng Yu led [-] soldiers to guard Puyang, Gao Shun and Xun Yu led [-] soldiers to guard Dongjun, Mao Jie and Xun You led [-] soldiers to guard Chenliu, and the remaining troops were composed of unknown people. The dragon set commander, scattered guards in the rest of the county towns in Yanzhou.

Gao Shun was upset at first because Cao Cao didn't take him to Xuzhou, but he was relieved immediately.Because he quickly figured it out, staying in Yanzhou might also have military exploits to gain.You know, Lu Bu took advantage of Cao Cao's attack on Xuzhou and the defense was empty, and with the help of Chen Gong and Zhang Miao, he launched a sudden attack.If we can defend Lu Bu's offensive at that time, the credit will be no less than the bloody battle on the front line of Xuzhou.It's just that the trap camp that I worked so hard to bring out is so easily assigned to someone else's command. Although this is only a temporary secondment and will be returned to her sooner or later, this is still unacceptable to Gao Shun.

In fact, Cao Cao really wanted to take Gao Shun with him on this expedition, after all, the combat power of his subordinate camp should not be underestimated.Although a thousand veterans were transferred to Xia Houyuan, Gao Shun had single-handedly brought them into the camp, so a sudden change of generals could not guarantee that there would be no inconvenience in command, which would cause a loss in combat power.

This time, Gao Shun was not allowed to go out with the army, largely because of his sister.Since Cao Cao agreed to Cao Ming to help match her and Gao Shun, he had to give Gao Shun a chance.The so-called opportunity does not mean giving him a chance to get close to Cao Ming, but giving him a chance to get close to his father Cao Song.Although he is the shepherd of Yanzhou, he is the supreme ruler of the state, and the father of Yanzhou cannot intervene in the political affairs.But in my own family, the head of the family is still Cao Song, and Cao Ming's marriage is a family matter, which is completely decided by Cao Song.Only when Gao Shun is truly approved by Cao Song can there be a relationship between the two.Otherwise, no matter how much you love the younger sister, if the father refuses to agree to it, I can't make a marriage for my younger sister on the charge of being unfilial.

Therefore, it is only good to let Gao Shun and Cao Song get acquainted.Take Gao Shun to Xuzhou, even if he is the number one in the army, I can't promote him to a particularly high position at once, so his military exploits are just a superficial in Cao Song's eyes. It's just a concept, and it doesn't have any impetus for this marriage.Instead of this, it is better to let Gao Shun stay in Yanzhou, so that he can have more opportunities to interact with Cao Song, and let him accumulate more and more impressions in Cao Song's mind, so the effect is more practical.As for attacking Xuzhou, Cao Cao had super confidence in his military strength.Although the combat strength of the trapped camp has been somewhat compromised, its number is only one thousand, and it is unknown how effective it will be in terms of an army of [-]. Furthermore, even if the strength of the trapped camp has declined, the extent of the decline It won't be too big, at least it can definitely be called the name of the elite.Cao Cao firmly believed that with the army under his command, he would be able to conquer the entire Xuzhou.

Therefore, no matter from which aspect, Cao Cao can safely keep Gao Shun in Yanzhou.What's more, Yanzhou really needs someone to stay behind. I didn't see that besides Gao Shun, Xiahou Dun, the most prestigious Cao Jun, also stayed to serve as the guard.

Before leaving, Cao Cao hinted at Gao Shun: "Visit my father more often."

It's just that Gao Shun had the previous misunderstanding, and there was a strange meaning to Cao Cao's words, and he had a lot of resentment. On the surface, he agreed respectfully, but Cao Cao just walked away. By the way, Gao immediately ignored this sentence.The big deal is that visiting Cao Song every few days is considered coping. When Cao Cao asks about it afterwards, he can just say that he is busy with training. Presumably he will not be too obsessed with this kind of thing.

—————————————————————————————————— Tao Qianwen Cao Cao led an army of [-] to attack Xuzhou, and the counties and towns fell one after another on the way. Without fear.On the one hand, Tao Qian hurriedly sent Chen Gui to negotiate a peace, and on the other hand, he ordered Sun Qian to immediately go to Beihai to ask for help.

Chen Gui looked forward to Cao Ying, but he returned in vain.And Beihai Kong Rong had just wiped out the bandit army led by Guan Hai, the remaining Yellow Turban Party, with the help of Liu Bei recently, and he didn't have much spare energy to support Xuzhou, but under Sun Qian's begging, Kong Rong finally joined forces with Liu Bei 5000 people were dispatched to rescue Xuzhou.

Outside the city of Xiapi, the sound of war drums rang out. Cao Jun entered Xuzhou and was invincible. Xiahouyuan's [-] former troops have now reached the city of Xiapi.As long as Xiapi City is breached, Xuzhou will completely become Cao Cao's pocket.

Tao Qian did not adopt the strategy of defending the city at the beginning, but chose to fight with Cao Jun outside Xiapi City for a while.On the one hand, it is because he has confidence in the combat power of the Danyang soldiers, and more because he saw that Cao Cao's army has not arrived at this moment, and now only [-] Xiahouyuan's former army appeared outside Xiapi City, thus creating The mind to fight with it.As long as you defeat Cao Cao's former army for a while, you can greatly reduce the morale of the opponent, and when Cao Cao's army joins the former army, your situation can also improve slightly.

Under the urging of the drums, the soldiers of the two armies strangled together violently.On the battlefield, human life is as cheap as ants.Maybe you just chopped off the head of an enemy soldier a moment ago, and a wooden gun will pierce your chest at this moment.

Now that the matter has come to this point, how dare Tao Qian have any reservations, Danyang soldiers have all been thrown into the battlefield to resist Cao Jun's flood-like offensive.

Kong Rong and Liu Bei's reinforcements had already arrived, and Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, the two tiger generals, took the lead and rushed into the chaos.Where the horse passed by, there was only Cao Jun's body left in a mess.

With the support of Danyang soldiers and Beihai reinforcements, the situation on the battlefield was barely stalemate and did not fall to one side of Cao Jun.

Xia Houyuan naturally knew the two generals who rushed to kill in the chaotic formation, and he had killed the enemy together as a friendly army before, so he was deeply impressed by their bravery.

"Archers, shoot!" Xia Houyuan pointed his right hand in the direction of Guan and Zhang, and gave an order to the archers behind him.

Xia Houyuan knew very well that he must curb the momentum of these two people as soon as possible, otherwise, once he was overwhelmed by these two people, the next battle would be difficult.

The archers were ordered to shoot a volley at Guan and Zhang.

Seeing this, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei didn't care about killing the enemy, they hurriedly waved the Qinglong Yanyue Saber and Zhangba Snake Spear in front of them, knocking down the flying arrows one after another.

On the battlefield, bows and arrows are undoubtedly the most effective weapons of destruction.Especially for an enemy like Guanzhang, the effect of sending fifty soldiers to besiege them is not as good as sending fifteen archers to shoot them from a distance.

When chasing Dong Zhuo last time, it was fortunate that the other party also set up an ambush hastily and didn't have all the equipment ready.If the Xiliang army had been equipped with crossbows, wood, and rolling stones at that time, the losses of the coalition forces would have increased significantly, and perhaps there would have been losses among the generals.

But now there are hundreds of archers shooting arrows at Guan and Zhang. No matter how high their martial arts skills are, they can't cope with the arrows coming from the sky. They can only retreat while waving the weapons in their hands to block the arrows.
