Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 732 Yuan Jun's Tactics

When the news of the reunion of the Han Dynasty army and Cao Cao spread to the Quartet, everyone in the world was looking forward to a dreadful decisive battle, waiting to see if the Han Dynasty would completely rejuvenate and move towards the great road of unification in this world.It was Yuan Shao, the Hebei giant, who once again dealt a heavy blow to the Han Dynasty with his powerful advantages.

But this problem is not a problem at all for the real parties.Even from the perspective of Liu Xie, who is still a bystander, this question is very funny: war is not a game, and when 10,000+ troops come to the bank of the Yellow River, will they do nothing and directly come to an overwhelming battle? Showdown?
That's the way those barbarians in the West would do it. We smart people of the Han Dynasty have long mastered a lot of wisdom in the art of war.Know how to use all the advantages to dominate the overall situation.

For example, Comrade Cao Cao, he knew that although he killed Yan Liang and Wen Chou, he won the battle and boosted morale.But he also knew that Yuan Shao's strength was still far superior to his own, so Cao Cao, who was dormant in Baima City, did not get excited and turned from defense to offense.Instead, he took over the means he had used in Guandu back then, and actively retreated to lay out defenses.

In Liu Xie's view, Cao Cao was like a very wronged little daughter-in-law who, after being yelled at and threatened by her husband, suddenly went crazy and scratched her husband twice.But after being scratched, I remembered that my husband had big fists and thick arms after all, and he crouched in the corner frightenedly protecting his vitals.

And Yuan Shao, after being harassed by Cao Cao, seemed to have given up the idea of ​​coaxing his daughter-in-law to get up and teaching her a lesson.He deployed all the main forces outside Baima City, surrounded Baima City, and then launched attacks one after another.Although most of these attacks ended in failure, Yuan Shao, the husband, had endless strength, as if he was determined to annoy his wife.

Xiahou Dun stood on the watchtower, staring at the defense line in front of him with a stern face, and issued decisive and cold orders one after another.At this time, between Cao Ying and Yuan Ying's high walls and deep fortifications, soldiers dressed in black and ochre, like ants whose nests have exploded, fell into the cruelest close combat in a narrow area stretching for dozens of miles. The front of the army is constantly changing, presenting a chaotic situation of canine teeth.

At present, Cao Jun's [-] troops are stationed in Baima City.If you just rely on Baima Yicheng, it is obviously not a good strategy.As a result, Cao Cao divided [-] Qingzhou soldiers and set up another battalion in front of Baima City.In this way, the horns of the city camps look at each other and have both offense and defense, which is the best way to relieve the pressure of Yuan Jun's wanton siege.

Such an important position cannot be taken by anyone who is not trusted and capable.There is no doubt that Xiahou Dun, who is the second person in the Cao family system, is the most suitable candidate.

"Report! The three pavilions on the right wing retreat fifty steps!" An orderly rushed over and shouted all the way.Upon hearing this, Xiahou Dun pointed his index finger in that direction without hesitation: "Command, the seven teams of archers behind the right flank will shoot two arrows in a lob and three arrows in a flat line." A lob is a projectile, which is to stop the enemy from attacking.There is no need to explain the flat shot, it is naturally used to kill the enemy.In such a battle, only in this way can the pawns usher in a moment of opportunity, so that the pawns can quickly fill the gap.

Following Xiahoudun's order, the captain on the right wing roared immediately, and hundreds of archers immediately fired deadly bows and arrows, causing blood to splatter in the chaotic battlefield.But then Yuan Jun with a rattan card rushed out, roaring and fighting with Cao Jun who came to fill the gap.

Such small changes are constantly happening in every part of the battlefield.The generals, school lieutenant, Qu Chang, Tuen Chang and even the lowest-level ordinary soldiers on both sides are desperately fighting for their own positions, hoping to have a little impact on the battle situation with their own wisdom or bravery. If you accumulate less, you can gradually accumulate victories.But on the battlefield at this time, no one can say for sure who Sun Wu will smile at Jishou.

Just as Xiahou Dun was concentrating on watching the entire battlefield, there was a noise behind him.This made Xiahou Dun very impatient, but before he turned his head to check, a young and cynical voice came to his ears: "General Xiahou, Yuan Shao seems to be working hard this time..."

Xiahou Dun was suddenly furious, but when he turned around and was about to scold the man, he could only stand aside in embarrassment: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty...the battle here is dangerous, and I hope your Majesty will forgive me for not being able to salute because of the armor."

It's not that Xiahou Dun can't salute, it's because he doesn't want to salute at all.Liu Xie is the emperor of the Han Dynasty. Although he came to help the war as a guest army, his status is too respectful.If he has too much courtesy, it will inevitably make his soldiers have some wrong ideas; in addition, Liu Xie has taken in the general Lu Bu who caused Xiahou Dun to be crippled. Xiahou Dun can endure this hatred for the sake of the overall situation, but he will never let it What kind of affection does he have for Liu Xie?

"It's okay, the general is away, and the military orders are not granted, let alone these red tapes." Liu Xie is very tolerant of this, and it can even be said that he doesn't care.He walked to the front of the watchtower, took a strong sniff of the tragic and bloody battlefield, and felt the throbbing fighting spirit in his chest.

Xiahoudun looked at Liu Xie's actions in a strange way, and couldn't help turning his tiger's eyes around, and immediately had a preliminary understanding of the emperor of the Han Dynasty: this emperor seems to be yearning for this kind of war...

But no matter what Liu Xie yearned for, Xiahoudun still couldn't let Liu Xie stay in such a dangerous place: "Your Majesty, this is an important front line, and it is extremely dangerous. Your Majesty's body is rich in gold, so you must not stay here for long."

But Liu Xie seemed very dissatisfied with Xiahoudun's suggestion, instead he turned his head and smiled, and asked an interesting question: "After fighting for so long, you still come and go, is this really interesting?"

Xiahou Dun couldn't help getting angry. He felt that the emperor of the Han Dynasty was too hopeless: it's just that the royal family had personally conquered a few times and won a few big battles by luck. Do you really think you know everything?Just like the chaotic battle situation in front of him, is it what Xiahou Dun wants?
He didn't even know what Yuan Shao's intentions were, so he just said that this war was meaningless, it was the extreme of arrogance and ignorance!
But when Liu Xie saw Xiahou Dun's angry face, he suddenly couldn't help laughing.At this moment, a arrow shot right at the watchtower, but Liu Xie did not avoid it, still smiling brightly with his back to the arrow, as if... a pure idiot.

"Your Majesty, be careful!" Although Xiahou Dun really wanted that arrow to kill Liu Xie, he also knew that Cao Jun must not lose a Han emperor at this time.With a thought, Xiahoudun was about to rush towards Liu Xie to rescue him.

But at this moment, the weak-looking soldier next to Liu Xie, whom Xia Houdun had been ignoring all this time, suddenly swung the halberd in his hand.After twisting the incoming cold arrow into a ball, and standing up with the halberd, Xiahou Dun caught the fierce and domineering aura of the man just now.

"According to the law of war, if you want to break through the joint defense line of General Xiahou, you should gather superior forces to attack the enemy. But judging from the current situation, Yuan Shao's army is attacking across the board, and the entire defense line against Cao's army is overwhelmed. All the camps have been attacked by force. Although this attack is grand, the actual effect is questionable."

Liu Xie's words shocked Xiahou Dun even more than the handsome bodyguard's halberd just now.In fact, Xiahou Dun has been thinking about it in his heart.Since Yuan Shao's army besieged Baima City, their offensive was obviously different from the regular siege method. Not only did they gather a large number of private soldiers from various ethnic groups in the north, but they even brought in the elite halberdiers and strong crossbowmen of the Chinese army. Out of a desperate posture.

But in fact, Yuan Jun attacked and Cao Jun defended.Yuan Shao's losses were far greater than Cao Jun's in this fight, but Yuan Shao had no intention of retreating at all, and he fought non-stop from sunrise to now.This kind of strangeness really made Xia Houdun very puzzled.

Xiahou Dun frowned slightly, and finally moved his eyes from the battlefield to Liu Xie: "I hope Your Majesty can clarify."

"The truth is actually quite simple. Although Yuan Shao's method is brutal, it is still a choice. To be honest, none of Yuan Shao's subordinates can compare with Guo Fengxiao, so it is better to directly fight for consumption. In this way, all strategies will be useless. Anyway, Hebei There are many soldiers and generals, and if three of you are replaced by one of you, the chances of winning are still very high. Now Cao Jun is completely sucked into the white horse, unable to move. As long as Yuan Shao is willing to bear the loss and does not relax the attack, you will be the ones who can't hold on first."

"This!..." Liu Xie pointed out the key point, and couldn't help but turn pale with shock: "If this is the case, what can I do?"

"So what?" Liu Xie suddenly couldn't help but smiled wryly, looked back at the White Horse City, and said meaningfully: "You think that your lord sent a daughter and gave him such a generous dowry?" Is it really Tuzhen's six thousand tigers? My father-in-law wants his son-in-law to stand in for him!..."
