Demon of the Three Kingdoms

"Bufan, what do you think of the Xiliang Army?" After hearing Guo Jia's opinion, Cao Cao wanted to hear Lu Rui's suggestion.

"My lord, the strength of the Xiliang army's tactics lies in their cavalry. If you want to defeat the Xiliang army, you must first defeat its cavalry."

"Well, Bufan's words are reasonable. The Xiliang army of the Ma family has strange tactics, which I have never heard of. Do you know the source?"

"This...?" Cao Jun's civil and military skills were stunned. Everyone had never seen such a strange way of fighting.

"My lord, Rui can solve my lord's doubts."

"Oh? Bufan is coming quickly."

"My lord, have you ever heard of Chen Gong soup?"

"Chen Gong Soup?"

"Bufan mean Chen Tang, the captain of the Protectorate of the Western Regions back then?"

"Teacher Xun is indeed a learned man, and Mr. Chen is indeed Chen Tang, the school captain of the Protectorate of the Western Regions."

"Gongda, is Chen Tang...?"

"My lord, Chen Tang was the school lieutenant of the Protectorate of the Western Regions during the period of Emperor Han and Yuan. From the time of Xuan Zhongxing of my great Han Dynasty to the period of Emperor Yuan, the power of the country has gradually weakened, and the Xiongnu gradually had the intention of invading south. Back then, Chen Tang led an army to defeat the Xiongnu Shanyu who went south. Conspiracy, famous for a while, but this feat is counted as under Gan Yanshou, the governor of the Western Regions, so the Lord may not know this person."

"It turned out to be Gan Duhu's subordinate." Although Cao Cao is also familiar with group books, some books are always controlled by the gentry, and Cao Cao will sometimes have incomplete information. After all, not everyone can read Hanshu of.

"Bufan, why do you know so much about Mr. Chen's deeds? You also learned about Mr. Chen from the remnants of Mr. Ban in the hands of your ancestors." Xun You smiled and glanced at Lu Rui.

The control of books in the Han Dynasty was very strict, and only the royal family could read history books like Hanshu.The reason why the gentry can control the power of the big man is that they rely on the collection of books at home to control culture and education.The so-called famous family refers to the cultural heritage of the family.Among them, the collection of books accounts for a large part.

Grandma's.Xun You is also a greedy person. Book exchange in the Han Dynasty was a very important means of communication for the ruling class. Any family wanted to copy books that were not in their own family from other families to strengthen the power of the family.Xun You is a book-loving person, and when he heard Chen Tang mentioned by Lu Rui, his eyes naturally lit up.

"Extraordinary?" Cao Cao also glanced at Lu Rui. Lu Rui had already left the Cao family, and Lu Rui had copies of all the books in the Cao family.In addition to the collection of books in the family of Lu Rui's masters, Lu Ruihou's mansion has basically become a copy warehouse of the Dahan library.The Cao family has paid so much, shouldn't Lu Rui pay back a little?

Cao Cao is also a book addict, so naturally he will not miss this opportunity.

"My lord, Rui only found out about this matter when he got the fragment of Chen Gong's handwriting by chance. If the lord wants a copy of the fragment, Rui will definitely order someone to give it to him after he returns to Xudu."

"A fluke?" Cao Cao froze for a moment, then stroked his beard.smiled.He knew what Lu Rui's fragments meant.

"Bufan, Mr. Chen is my great hero. You have to be careful in your actions!" Xun You understood the conversation between the father and son, and it was Lu Rui's tomb robbery that was a fluke.Cao Cao's refusal to rob the tomb due to the status of Lord Sikong doesn't mean that Lu Rui can't, at worst, he will give Lu Rui the name of a dude.

"Yes, Master Xun, Rui knows it!" Lu Rui breathed a sigh of relief. What kind of fragments are these? It is Lu Rui's memory of reading Han books in later generations. Of course, this cannot be discussed with Cao Cao and Xun You, and can only be covered by tomb robbery. up.

"Gongda, don't get too far, Bufan, so what is the relationship between Chen Gong and the cavalry of the Xiliang Army?" Cao Cao rescued Lu Rui, and it is still a top priority to discuss against the Xiliang Army.

"My lord, according to Chen Gong's records, the Xiongnu Shanyu had an elite foreign army in his hands. Their tactics were quite similar to those of the Xiliang army. The cavalrymen held sharp spears and threw them to kill the enemy. Their combat power was extremely strong."

"Oh?"

"The cavalry of other tribes came from the far western countries. The sharp spears held by the Roman country are called javelins, so the Xiliang cavalry is also called javelin cavalry."

"Then the strange wooden pile formation of the Xiliang army also came to the country of Rome?"

"Reporting to my lord, the wooden stakes in the Xiliang Army should have come from the Roman kingdom, called fences, but the wooden stakes that General Cao fell into may not be so simple."

"My lord, Jia agrees with Bufan's statement. According to Gongda's description, the formation of the Xiliang army may be derived from the formation of the Warring States military strategists."

"Gongda?"

"My subordinates also believe that the formation of the Xiliang Army was changed from the formation of the Warring States Period. As for the formation, the subordinates have to observe carefully before they can judge." Because the height of the wooden pile formation is as high as that of the Western Romans Half of them were riding horses in the distance, and Xun You couldn't see what was going on inside the formation.

"The javelin cavalry of the Western Regions combined with the formations of our Warring States Period, it seems that there are experts in the Xiliang Army to guide them." Cao Cao smiled, showing his eyes longing for talents.

"Bufan, in your opinion, how should we deal with the Xiliang army?"

"Wait!"

"Wait?"

"That's right, my lord, the reason why the Xiliang Army's javelin cavalry are so powerful is because they take advantage of the running speed of Xiliang's steeds. In another month, it will be winter, and there will be heavy snowfall in Guanzhong. At that time, the Xiliang Army's cavalry will surely If we can't use its speed, our army can seek opportunities to defeat the Xiliang army."

The reason why the javelins of the Xiliang cavalry are so powerful is that they take advantage of the fast running of the horses. The javelins released during the fast running, coupled with the effect of potential energy, can definitely penetrate the city walls of the current Han Dynasty. How can humans be able to stop them?

To deal with Xiliang cavalry, we must first break his speed!

"Well, what Bufan said is reasonable. Every time the Xiliang cavalry attack, they must make their horses run faster before releasing their javelins. If it's cold winter, the Xiliang army's horses will definitely be caught in heavy snow."

"Okay! Order the generals to guard Tongguan to the death. When the heavy snow falls in winter, our army will attack again and take back Chang'an."

"Yes, my lord!"

"My lord, Chun is still worried. Our army has not yet figured out the secret of the yellow turban warriors in the formation. If our army encounters the yellow turban warriors again, it may damage morale." Cao Chun cupped his hands and suggested to Cao Cao that the yellow turban Cao Chun was so impressed by the wrestlers that a wrestler who had already seen his bones could kill Cao Jun's elite.If there were yellow turban warriors among the yellow turbans in Qingzhou back then, I am afraid there would be no Cao Jun now.

"Zihe is right to worry, Fengxiao, you need to send someone to figure out the mystery of the Yellow Turban Warrior, and our army must come up with countermeasures in time, just in case."

"promise!"

After the Xiliang army captured Chang'an, they opened the treasury of Chang'an. The Xiliang army cultivated in Chang'an and did not advance eastward.Cao Cao's army also reorganized its armaments in Tongguan, preparing to recapture Chang'an.At the beginning of October, it really snowed heavily in Guanzhong.
