Three Kingdoms: Opening War Strategy System

The other side.

Zhang Xiu, Xu Rong, Hua Xiong and other generals, leading the 100,000 Liangzhou army, were also overwhelming, pushing all the way from Hanzhong, defeating the Cao army one after another.

However, while in Pingdu County, Zhang Xiu and other Liangzhou troops encountered fierce resistance from the Cao army.

Because the commanders were the main generals of the Cao army such as Bao Xin, Zhang Yan, Cao Ren and Cao Chun.

Faced with the pursuit of the Liangzhou army, Cao Cao had to send his capable generals to lead an army of 100,000 to meet the attack.

If the Liangzhou army is allowed to attack Pingdu County, then they will directly attack Fuling County.

Cao Cao and other main forces of the Cao army are now stationed in Fuling, allowing the enemy troops to come to the city, and under the siege, they really have no way to retreat.

The momentum of the Liangzhou army's onslaught slowed down, and Zhang Xiu, Xu Rong and other generals were not anxious, and ordered all the generals to set up camp.

Inside the tent.

Xu Rong looked around, analyzed the battle situation and said:

"According to intelligence, the total strength of the Cao army is only more than 200,000. Now there are more than 100,000 generals Huang Zhong and Zhang Jaw who are under the leadership of Forbidden and Qi Yi to block Yanshan's attack.

One hundred thousand, under the command of Bao Xin, Cao Ren and other generals, came to block our pursuit.

Today, in the Fuling base camp, there are only 30,000 or 40,000 officers and men of the Cao army, most of them are logistics troops.

As long as any of us breaks through the Cao army's defense line, Cao Cao is in danger! "

Xu Rong's words caused the generals to bow their heads.

Zhang Xiu put forward his own idea and said, "Now in Pingdu County, Bao Xin, Zhang Yan, Cao Ren and other generals are guarding, and it is difficult to break through in a short time.

Can we find a way to bypass Pingdu and smash the Yellow Dragon directly, and after taking Fuling, whether Cao Cao lives or dies, the Cao army will not attack itself! "

Zhang Xiu's proposal was opposed by everyone.

Xu Rong shook his head and said, "Never do! If we bypass Pingdu County, the enemy forces wait for us to pass, and then attack us from behind, then we will be attacked in the abdomen. "

In ancient times, when marching and fighting, when attacking cities and plundering fortresses, they often did not choose to detour, but riveted to knock down the blocked city first.

It is to avoid being attacked from behind by enemy troops after the detour, suffering from the enemy in the abdomen and suffering heavy losses.

Therefore, there are often cases where the siege of the city is for several months, or even years, and finally the attack cannot be taken and the army is withdrawn.

It is not that these commanders are pedantic and stupid, and do not understand tactfully, but to avoid this situation.

Zhang Xiu obviously understood this truth, and added: "It is not a detour for the whole army, but a detour for the whole army. With the strength of our Liangzhou army, 50,000 dragged down the Cao army by 100,000, which is more than enough. "

Hua Xiong's head said: "If this is the case, you can consider it."

I heard that when Ma Teng and them attacked from the slope, it was Ma Chao who led the elite troops to attack from the trail. Finally, he captured the three generals Xu Chu, Xia Hou Wei and Xia Hou Yuan, and made great military achievements! "

For Ma Chao's promotion to general, other generals of the Liangzhou Army were extremely envious. But it is undeniable that entering the battle of Hanzhong, Ma Chao did a lot of credit.

Xu Rong bowed.

Zhang Xiu continued: "In addition to the detour, we can also contact Liu Zhang in Yizhou.

When Hanzhong sent a message, Liu Zhang sent an envoy Zhang Song to surrender, and Ma Chao had already led his army into the belly of Yizhou, so that they could attack the Cao army from behind. "

This plan was good, Ma Chao led the army to drive straight in from behind, attacking Jiangzhou, Fuling and other places, and by then the front line of the Cao army would be self-defeating!

Even Cao Jun did not know that Liu Zhang had surrendered to Changshan Army. They will certainly be able to surprise them.

At that time, the three roads join forces to encircle, and the Cao army will definitely lose!

It's just that.

Let Ma Chao lead their army to sneak attack the Cao army... Isn't this giving up the battle exploits?!

Although they are all subordinates of the Changshan King and one of the Liangzhou Legion, it is undeniable that they are also competitive.

Ma Chao, Pound and other generals, because of the excellent performance in the battle of Hanzhong, official positions were promoted and promoted by leaps and bounds, Zhang Xiu Xu Rong and them, also want to use this battle to save the situation!

Thinking of this, Zhang Xiu and they looked at each other, tacitly, and gave up this plan by coincidence.

"It's better to find a way to divide the troops and detour!"

Xu Rong, as a second-class general of the armed forces commander, faintly belongs to the existence of advice among several people, and Zhang Xiuhuaxiong also recognized his decision.

"According to what Zhang Xiu said, we divided 50,000 troops, one to bypass Pingdu County and attack Fuling from behind, and one to storm Pingdu County to drag down the pace of the Cao army."

Hua Xiong's head said: "It's just, I don't know who led the army to sneak attack?" "

"I'll come!"

Zhang Xiu said solemnly and solemnly: "You guys are trying to storm Pingdu County and drag the enemy's sight, I take this opportunity to detour behind!"

Don't use 50,000, just give me 30,000 soldiers!" "

The generals bowed their heads and agreed to Zhang Xiu's proposal.

Then they continue to fill in the gaps, fill in the details, and after making a decision, they immediately start to act.

The school ordered troops, Zhang Xiu divided 30,000 troops, found a detour from the topographic map, traveled lightly, and set off directly.

Xu Rong, Hua Xiong and other generals were not idle, and directly ordered 50,000 horses, stayed behind 20,000 Gongwei camps, and launched a strong attack on Pingdu County.

In addition to putting pressure on Cao Jun in Pingdu County, so that they could not be distracted from pursuing Zhang Xiu, this move was also to create time and opportunities for Zhang Xiu.

Woo hoo -

The trumpets sounded in the company camp, and the drums sounded in the sky.

The Liangzhou army directly launched a strong attack on Pingdu County.

Above the county tower.

Bao Xin, Zhang Yan, Cao Ren and other generals looked at this scene with serious faces, and asked all the soldiers to prepare for the defense of the city such as rolling wood, barrier stones, and fire oil.

It's just that.

Even if they have a strong city garrison, there are still 100,000 troops in the city guard, and they will not be easily broken in a short time.

But the faces of the generals were still full of sadness.

Because Cao Ren and other generals got information from scouting spies, a Liangzhou army detoured through Pingdu County and wanted to launch a strong attack on Fuling directly.

This made the guards of Pingdu County shake it!

"We must send troops to block the attack, and we can't let them lead the army to make a successful detour!" Otherwise, Fuling would be dangerous! Bao Xin said solemnly.

Zhang Yan watched the Liangzhou army lead the army to attack, and said worriedly: "But if we divide the army, we will not even be able to hold Pingdu County!" "

Although there are 100,000 troops, front-line defense and logistics unit dispatch all need manpower. It is also necessary to take turns to defend so that casualties and exhausted soldiers can rest.

An army of 100,000 looks a little stretched!

Cao Chun said eagerly: "No matter what, 20,000 soldiers must be divided, and I will lead my army to pursue the Liangzhou army, and I can't let them approach Fuling." "

After the generals sighed, they could only bow their heads!

Fuling is their base camp, and the family members of the official family, the lord Cao Cao, and others are all here.

However, now the strength of the army is only 30,000 or 40,000, and the other large armies are on the front line to guard against the attack of Zhang Xiu and other Liangzhou troops, as well as Huang Zhong and other Changshan troops.

If they were given a successful detour, Cao Cao would be in danger!

I have to say that now it has come to the crisis of the survival of their Cao Army.

After receiving the consent of the generals, Cao Chun left directly and hurriedly: "We must prevent the enemy from attacking!" "

"General Cao must also stop the enemy troops from detouring to attack the troops!"

Not long after Cao Chun left, the siege force of the Liangzhou army came to the city, and the Cao army on the city wall was waiting for the battle, but everyone was extremely nervous.

If you walked in, you could still see that the faces of all the soldiers were a little pale, their foreheads showed cold sweat in the cold winter, and their bodies were a little trembling!

"Defend!"

The soldiers immediately held their shields.

Meanwhile.

The dense rain of arrows fell like a torrential rain, which was the fire suppression tactics of the Changshan army, and they had been fighting with it for a long time, and they were already very familiar with each other.

Snap Snap -

The sound of arrows hitting the shield was heard, and the sound of rain hitting plantains was heard, and occasionally a loophole appeared that penetrated through the past, hitting the soldier's body, and making a scream.

At the same time as the fire suppression, the siege force of the Liangzhou army also relied on the ** capital city and wanted to storm to the top.

While Cao Jun asked the soldiers to raise their shields to defend, they also asked the soldiers to throw down rolling logs and stones, and smashed and knocked down the Liangzhou army personnel who were attacking the city.

The oil was poured down, the flames ignited, and the raging fire burned, and the scene seemed somewhat tragic and bloody.

Xu Rong saw that Cao Jun was stubbornly resisting, and now he had the momentum of a backwater battle, knowing that nothing could be done, and immediately asked all the soldiers to withdraw.

Then use the rain of arrows to suppress, as long as the enemy army retreats slightly, he will let the Liangzhou army press up again.

The siege battle fell into a state of stagnation for a while.

The other side.

Zhang Xiu led an army of 30,000 and detoured from the sheep's intestine trail on the side of Pingdu County, wanting to attack Fuling County directly from behind.

This division of troops is not unbelievable, but the Liangzhou Legion is also helped by Liu Chen's 'ability bonus', and all the soldiers have a 6 times bonus.

From the high-ranking generals to the ordinary soldiers, the physical fitness of the Liangzhou Army has become extremely strong, not to mention one enemy ten, at least one enemy five.

Absolute Tiger and Wolf Master!

This is the source of their confidence that they dare to divide the troops.

Zhang Xiu led the army all the way forward silently, bypassing Pingdu County, crossing mountains and rivers, and there were no dangers along the way.

However, halfway through the march, when he reached the canyon area, looked at the mountains on both sides, and only a sheep's intestine path in the middle passed, he directly ordered the soldiers to stop.

It is easy to ambush here, and Zhang Xiu must be careful. And with Zhang Xiu's current strength, his intuition made him feel dangerous.

Sure enough.

The scout pigeon soon arrived, and after being translated by the tamer, tens of thousands of enemy troops were ambushed around.

This made Zhang Xiu break out in a cold sweat behind his back!

If it weren't for his intuitive vigilance, as well as artifacts such as this reconnaissance pigeon, he might have been ambushed by the enemy army, suffered heavy losses, or even wiped out the entire army!

After all, who would have thought that in the face of Xu Rong's 50,000 strong attack, the Cao army would still have the spare strength to ambush him.

With the intelligence information of the reconnaissance pigeon, Zhang Xiu immediately launched a reverse ambush. The praying mantis catches the yellow finch, which is a scheme for the fisherman's profit.

It's just that.

After all, the Cao army was in ambush at a high place, and the leader of the army was Cao Chun, who was once the governor of the tiger and leopard horse, and his marching combat ability was very excellent.

After condescendingly seeing Zhang Xiu's vigilance and change formation, Cao Chun realized that the ambush leaked and decisively launched an attack.

Boom boom -

A lot of rolling stones and rolling logs prepared in advance were directly pushed down, it did not matter whether they could hit the enemy, as long as they could block the enemy's advance, they would be considered successful.

Zhang Xiu immediately led the army to attack, the archers shot from a long distance, the fire suppressed, and the infantry crossed the mountain, wanting to kill the mountain.

After Cao Chun threw the hastily prepared defensive props, he directly ordered the attack. Archers fired, and infantry defended various climbing arteries to avoid close combat with the Liangzhou army.

They are old opponents with the Liangzhou Army, they can be said to know the roots, naturally know that the Liangzhou Army is extremely physical, and they need many people to join forces to resist.

This makes them prefer a long-range attack to a hand-to-hand combat.

There was a fierce fighting sound in the valley, and as the valley echoed, it gradually echoed between the surrounding mountains and forests.

In Pingdu County in the rear, Xu Rong and Hua Xiong led the army to attack, Bao Xin and Cao Ren led the army to defend, and the sound of fighting, trumpets, and drums fighting between the two armies was actually heard from afar.

In both battlefields, the battles are very fierce!

The physical fitness of the Liangzhou army was extremely strong, but the Cao army occupied a favorable position to defend, and it was difficult to capture it for a while.

Zhang Xiu's Yuguang swept away, but he directly chose to withdraw his troops, and he was ready to abandon the raid on Fuling and attack Pingdu County instead, attacking the county town back and forth.

At the same time, it is possible to use the withdrawal of troops to lure down the Cao army on the mountain.

Battlefield operations are changing rapidly, and sometimes the situation is unfavorable, and it is necessary to retreat decisively. Sometimes you have an advantage, you can use it to chase while you win.

Zhang Xiu's command ability is not as good as Xu Rong, but he is also an excellent general, and his marching combat ability is also very good!

Zhang Xiu led the army and fought and retreated, which made Cao Chun, who was ambushed on the mountain, hesitate.

It is very likely that the enemy army is just retreating, trying to lure them down when they are in a favorable position, and then engage in hand-to-hand combat that the Liangzhou army is good at.

It is also possible that there is no way forward and chooses to retreat to besiege Pingdu County.

This made Cao Chun a little uncomfortable.

If he went down to pursue Zhang Xiu, and waited until the enemy army counterattacked, the Cao army was not the opponent of the Liangzhou army in close combat.

But if they sit and watch Zhang Xiu retreat and attack Pingdu County back and forth, Bao Xin, Zhang Yan, and Cao Ren will definitely not be able to defend!

Cao Chun sighed in his heart, and Zhang Xiu's retreat caused the initiative of the battlefield to be transferred to the hands of the Liangzhou army.

For the safety of the 100,000 soldiers of Pingdu County, even if it is a trap, Cao Chun must pursue and drag Zhang Xiu.

It's just that.

This battle is dangerous for their Cao Army!

Cao Chun sent his own soldiers to send a message to Fuling, so that Cao Cao could prepare early, if he could retreat into the belly of Yizhou, it would be best, even if he was attached to Liu Zhang, he could make a comeback.

Then he ordered a pursuit, and the Cao army on the ambush mountain immediately left the geographical advantage and pursued Zhang Xiu.

Zhang Xiu kept retreating, always retreating, just when Cao Jun thought that Zhang Xiu wanted to besiege Pingdu County, Zhang Xiu immediately ordered a counterattack on Cao Chun and hit a horse gun!

The Cao army was caught off guard and could only engage the Liangzhou army in close combat.

On one side was Cao Chun's 20,000 army sergeants, and on the other was Zhang Xiu's 30,000 Liangzhou army with one enemy and five enemies.

It is conceivable what the outcome of this battle will be.

Within an hour of the two armies, the Cao army was defeated, with those killed in battle, surrendered those who surrendered, and fled those who fled.

Even the leading general Cao Chun was captured by Zhang Xiusheng.

After Zhang Xiu looked at the thousands of surrendered troops, the prisoners of the general Cao Chun, and the corpses everywhere, he glanced at Fuling, which could not be seen far away, and chose to return to attack Pingdu County.

Zhang Xiu did not be greedy for merit, nor did he want to monopolize the credit, but prepared to assist Xu Rong and Hua Xiong to take Pingdu County first, and let the army come to Fuling.

Leaving 10,000 soldiers to defend the enemy army and clean up the battlefield, Zhang Xiu directly led an army of 20,000 back to attack Pingdu County.

In Pingdu County, Bao Xin and Zhang Yan were resisting the strong attack led by Xu Rong, but suddenly there were the sounds of fighting and trumpets behind them, as well as the sound of warning drums.

"What's going on?!"

Bao Xin and other generals were shocked, they guessed something, but they seemed a little unbelievable!

Cao Chun lost?!

That's too fast, right?

Cao Chun led an army of 20,000 to ambush the Liangzhou army raiding force, even if the enemy army was tens of thousands, it was impossible to lose so quickly, right?

If it weren't for Cao Chun's defeat, how could the enemy army make a detour behind and storm Pingdu County? Let them suffer from the enemy in the belly, left and right?

Cao Ren could only lead his army to the back.

Even if Pingdu County is a military important city, it was attacked by the Liangzhou army back and forth, and it seemed to be a little careless.

What's more, after letting Cao Chun take away the 20,000 soldiers, they looked even more clumsy and exhausted.

After two hours of attack by the Liangzhou army, it was finally torn open by a rift, and then the rift expanded, engulfing Pingdu County.

Three hours later, the Liangzhou army invaded the county town of Pingdu, destroyed the decay, and soon occupied Pingdu County.

Bao Xin, Zhang Yan, Cao Ren and other generals were defeated and captured, and tens of thousands of Cao troops were either killed or surrendered, and the city could be described as a mountain of corpses and rivers of blood!

After Zhang Xiu, Xu Rong, and Hua Xiong met, there was a lingering surprise on their faces. After the fall of Pingdu County, they could point directly to Fuling County.

Capture Cao Cao alive, they have made great contributions in this battle, and it is no longer a problem to wait for worship.
