Rebirth of the Three Kingdoms: The New Biography of Guan Ping

Cao Ren's tiger and leopard cavalry rushed up, and immediately sank in with both men and horses. Cao Ren had no choice but to have the current situation. Only when the whole army rushed back desperately could the losses be minimized; in this way, the elite tiger and leopard knights Soldiers had no choice but to rush forward without hesitation under strict discipline to pave the way for the comrades behind. txt>

Guan Ping, who had escaped from the swamp a long time ago, immediately rode his horse to the ambush ground on both sides, and then immediately ordered Wei Yan and Qu Yi to lead the troops out of the swamp on the pre-paved path, made a detour, and blocked the road directly. Cao Jun's retreat was blocked.

When Cao Jun rushed into the entrance of the swamp, Qu Yi had already set up his formation, with swordsmen in front and crossbowmen with strong bows and crossbows in the back.

When Cao Ren led with heavy losses and rushed back to the field with the corpses of his comrades and horses, what greeted them was another round of arrows from the camp first.

Cao's soldiers were panicked and had no intention of fighting again. Cao Ren had no choice but to order the cavalry not to cause trouble for going to the camp first. Nearly [-] corpses were withdrawn hastily to Jiangling. [

Three thousand tiger and leopard cavalry and Xu Huang's two thousand elite cavalry are almost the absolute main force of Cao Cao's cavalry. Pursuit ability.

Guan Ping finally felt the shame of being almost wiped out by Cao Ren's entire army in Shangcai. At the cost of [-] ordinary soldiers, he defeated Cao Jun's [-] elite cavalry and won the time to retreat. It can be described as: a big victory!

After the great victory, Liu Bei and Guan Ping were able to retreat to Jiangxia in a leisurely manner, and Guan Ping set aside a place in Fankou for Liu Bei to garrison.

And during this period, despite the great victory, Guan Ping never dared to go to Zhang Fei, and Zhang Fei also hid in Liu Bei's army dully, not saying a word all day long. For him, if three thousand soldiers died in battle, It doesn't matter, the man's body shrouded in horse leather is the best destination. However, Guan Ping regarded his three thousand brothers as grass to pave the way for Cao Jun, and was buried alive in the mud. The [-] soldiers were chosen by Zhang Fei himself and Guan Ping, Zhang Fei's mood, but Guan Ping didn't use his own soldiers, but only Zhang Fei's soldiers. The intention was clear at a glance, and Zhang Fei was very disappointed.

A few days later, under the support of Jiang Qin, Guan Yu's navy also rushed to Jiangxia, because Guan Yu had fought with Cao Cao's navy in Xiangjiang before. Guan Yu, who was not good at water warfare, was defeated. Liu Bei fled from Xiangyang to Jiangling. , There were more than [-] naval divisions following along the road, and when they arrived in Jiangxia, there were less than [-]. This is the result of Jiang Qin's response, otherwise, the entire army may be wiped out.

On the second day after Liu Bei and Guan Ping's army gathered in Jiangxia, Zhou Yu, who was well prepared, led two thousand sailors up the river and arrived at Xiakou.

Guan Ping, Liu Bei, and Zhou Yu, the three main generals of the Anti-Cao Alliance, were all present. Immediately, in Jiangxia City, in the prefect's mansion of the host Guan Ping, the three held their first meeting to discuss the next countermeasures.

Liu Bei and Zhou Yu also saw for the first time Guan Ping's hidden strength for many years. The incomparably repaired city walls, the elite soldiers and horses, and the talented and united civil and military officials all told everyone about Jiang Xia's strength.

Guan Ping gave up the main seat to Liu Bei, and sat on the left by himself, while Zhou Yu and others sat on the right.

"Everyone, Bei fought two hard battles with Cao Thief in Fancheng and Jiangling, and lost both. Now, the three of us gathered in Jiangxia, and we are invincible. Otherwise, everyone here will be prisoners. '

Everyone's expressions were serious, and they raised their glasses to each other: "The three families have strong forces, and they will surely defeat Cao Cao." '

"Now, Cao Cao's water and land troops have come together. I, Guan Taishou, and Zhou Dudu all think that Cao Cao must use the Yangtze River waterway boat division as the main force, and the shore cavalry as a supplement, and the Xiangjiang water and land boat division as a check. How do you think differently? '

The Cai Mao and Zhang Yun naval forces had nearly [-] Jingzhou naval forces stationed in the Yangtze River. According to Cao Cao's deployment, which always favored the surrendered troops first and the main force later, Cao Cao's next main attack direction was almost clear at a glance, and no one had any objection.

"Then Xiangyang all the way, who can resist the enemy?" '

'Brother, younger brother is willing to go. But Guan Yu took up the battle, and seeing him said: "I have fought with the Xiangjiang navy a few times, and I am familiar with it. It is best for me to go." '

Liu Bei was about to nod, but Guan Ping stood up and said, "Uncle, I can send a water division to assist my father." '

'Then it's settled, Gongjin, do you have any objections? '

"I have no objection. Since the Xiangjiang River Road is handed over to Guan Yunchang, then the Yangtze River Road Road will be done by me." '

This is what everyone expects. Among the three, if anyone is said to be the best boat master, it is naturally Jiangdong. [

'Gong Jin, I ask Gan Ning, the commander of the Jiangxia Navy, to help you with five thousand boat masters. '

'So, thank you Dingguo. '

The three families finalized the matters on the water, and when it came to deployment on the road, they were all from Liu Bei and Guan Ping. The Jiangdong cavalry were assembled by Sun Quan and came to Jiangxia one after another.

Liu Bei first said: "My subordinates still have fifteen thousand soldiers and horses, which can be stationed in Lushan." '

Guan Ping said: "To the north of Lushan Mountain, there is a city. I have been running it for a long time and it is quite strong. It is named Hanyang. I stationed more than ten thousand men and women there, echoing my uncle from afar." '

Soon, the three families finalized the specific defense matters. After all, Cao Cao had a knife hanging over his head, so who could be in a hurry.

After the arrangement was completed, Guan Ping secretly compared the current situation with the original Battle of Chibi in history.

Relatively speaking, the three anti-Cao families were inferior in terms of naval forces, but on land, because of Liu Bei's strength, Guan Ping's sudden rise, and Cao Cao stormed Fancheng and Jiangling for a few months, and suffered losses. It was quite heavy, and it was defeated by Guan Ping's design in Huarong Swamp, and the elite cavalry suffered heavy losses. Therefore, on land, the three anti-Cao families had an advantage compared to before.

However, the key to defeating Cao Cao lies in the water, and a large part of the reason why Cao Cao was defeated in history was because of the plague at that time. The non-combat attrition of Cao's army was very serious.

But this time, can the anti-Cao family still have such good luck?
