Cao Cao's chef

Chapter 851 Sun Quan Crosses the River and Guangling

"Report, Yuan Shao's army is moving westward, and the target has not yet been determined." The next day, the spies came to report, saying that the main force of Yuan Shao's army began to move westward, and the purpose was unknown.

"Go west..." Cao Cao looked at the map. If Yuan Shao continued to go west, he would go to the Zhongmou area, but before that, there was a place that she was more concerned about. "Could it be that he plans to camp at Guandu?"

It has the same meaning as Yanjinkou. It is an important ferry to go north. Compared with Yanjinkou, the water flow is more gentle and it is the best place to cross the river.Most importantly, it is also very suitable for erecting pontoon bridges!

After the pontoon bridge was built, Yuan Shaojun had a steady stream of energy, transporting goods and soldiers from the north bank.At the same time, it is not far from Hanoi County, and it was very convenient to support in the past.It is also far away from Yanjinkou, and you can come to support at any time.

"If it's there, it's very close for Jing Zhongmu to go south to Xuchang..." Xun You looked at the map and probably knew Yuan Shao's intentions.

If Cao Cao dared to send troops from other places, then Yuan Shao would take the opportunity to go south to Xuchang. As long as the emperor was in her hands, the title of righteousness would naturally fall into her hands.If there is no righteousness, the shortcomings of the current imperial court will be highlighted.

Cao Cao's full power has the advantage of being in full power, that is, even if the emperor falls into the opponent's hands, she still has enough troops, and even if she loses the name of righteousness, she can control all places.

Not now, if the justice is lost, it is hard to say whether the county guards and county magistrates in various places can still obey her orders, especially now that there are many generals who are not directly related to her in the various legions.When the time comes, it's hard to say whether these generals will listen to the 'court' or her.

So Cao Cao absolutely must protect Xu Chang, because Xu Chang, especially His Majesty, has become her biggest weakness now!

"Yuan Shao really knows where to choose the decisive battle..." Cao Cao felt a headache, "The key is we have to accommodate her..."

"General, why don't I send troops to harass Yuan Shao's army!" Ma Chao said, the Qiang cavalry under her command are all good at speed.

"Our Baima Yicong can also do this!" Zhao Yun came out, not only to let them from the Youzhou Army gain a firm foothold in the military, but also to allow Gongsun Zan to get the imperial court's favor. reuse.

After all, when people talk about Baima Yicong, the first thing that comes to mind is that this army was once an elite army under Gongsun Zan's command.

"You can try it, but remember not to rush in!" Cao Cao thought for a while, and thought that it could be considered if it was just harassment after all, then it would not be a big problem.The key is not to make Wen Chou's mistake, otherwise it is estimated that the same mistakes will be repeated.

"Yes!" The two naturally knew what Cao Cao meant, and immediately replied solemnly.

On the other hand, it was not easy for Yuan Shao. After two days of discussion, the four military divisions finally finished the discussion and decided to transfer the decisive battle to Guandu.At the same time, a pontoon bridge is set up here to build a camp.On the one hand, it facilitates the transportation of materials, and on the other hand, it can better resist Cao Cao.

At the same time, just as Cao Cao worried, after setting up the formation here, Cao Cao can't move around casually, otherwise Xuchang will have problems.Guo Tu also analyzed that Cao Cao's military rations may not be enough, especially since Sun Quan also started to go north.

Now that the war has started on this side, there has been no movement there for a long time. If you want to reap the benefits of the fisherman, you can't cheapen the opponent so much.In other words, Yuan Shaojun is currently in a state of confrontation with Cao Jun.Until, Sun Quan crossed the river and went north.

Taking advantage of this time, a group of soldiers can be recruited, about 5 to [-] people, trained in advance, and sent to the battlefield when necessary.

The stage of confrontation is actually really good, it can be used for training, and it won't suddenly come to a decisive battle or something.In the case of relying on the defense of the walled city, it is not easy for the opponent to attack.

The only concern is the new type of catapult, which has a range half higher than that of ordinary catapults.Tian Feng believes that Cao Jun may be thrown into the battlefield.But it doesn't matter. From Guo Tu's point of view, no matter how powerful this catapult is, it needs to be built and used. During this time, it is enough to send elite soldiers to destroy it.

"Report, there are two cavalrymen following us!" Just as the army was moving, a scout came to report.

"Do you know who is leading the army?" Yuan Shao asked casually.

"The banner says Zhao and horses, and the horses used by the two cavalry are all white horses!" the scout replied.

"One should be Baima Yicong under Gongsun Zan's command before, and the general surnamed Zhao should be Zhao Yun, who also caused us a lot of trouble before." Feng Ji immediately reacted, "As for the other one, I don't know. , Cao Cao's relatively well-known general surnamed Ma, it seems that there is no..."

"But go to Liangzhou!" Tian Feng thought for a while, "In today's world, one of the more famous white horse cavalry is Gongsun Zan's white horse righteous follower, and the other is Ma Teng's Qiang cavalry. These cavalry are all white horses. Qiang, but the ruler...is Ma Chao, Ma Teng's eldest daughter!"

"Ma Chao is under Cao Cao's command?" Yuan Shao frowned immediately when he heard the words, "Since this is the case, can it be said that Ma Teng has already belonged to Cao Cao? In this way, in the battle of Hanoi, don't we have to face Ma Teng's troops?"

"I need to write a letter to Governor Gao, telling him to be careful!" Guo Tu immediately came out.

"Indeed... well, let's not talk about that, give orders, be careful of the enemy's attack! At the same time, let the crossbowmen drive away these annoying flies!" Yuan Shao waved his hand, and then gave the order.

She doesn't have many cavalry now, at most three to five thousand, but there are many crossbowmen, six thousand.Scattering them everywhere, and preparing two thousand crossbowmen in each place is enough to make the opponent fearful.It's just that, I'm afraid I have to stop and go to get to Guandu.

"My lord, why don't I go out and meet them?" Zhang Yun stepped out, and Gao Lan followed suit.

"Yan Liang, Wen Chou, was defeated by him, and if you go out again, do you want to provide the opponent with a record?" Yuan Shao does not intend to take the initiative to fight now.Gao Lan currently has [-] cavalry under her command. As for Zhang He, she has [-] infantry under her command.

Thinking of the pawns under her command, Yuan Shao thought for a while: "Save the trump card for use when necessary!"

"Yes!" The two of them were still a little dissatisfied with Yuan Shao's words, but after listening to her supplement, they felt a little better.

Ma Chao and Zhao Yun came to harass them, but the opponents continued to counterattack with crossbow arrows, and their own army could not take advantage of it. In the end, they had no choice but to keep harassing, but they couldn't get close, and they returned in vain.

"It doesn't matter, at least we know that Yuan Shao still has a lot of crossbowmen under his command. This is a good result!" Cao Cao was not surprised by this, and was even a little surprised.The more they know about the enemy, the more likely they are to win.

After two days like this, Yuan Shao finally arrived at Guandu, where he began to set up his formation. At the same time, the remaining Hebei navy also came to set up camp here, and at the same time helped build the pontoon bridge.

During the period, the Han Navy also harassed, but Gan Ning was not there, so there was no way to cause effective damage.After all, Cao Cao still lacks excellent naval generals.

At this time, a military newspaper came to Cao Cao's camp: Sun Quan led his army northward and entered Guangling County!
