Han counter current

"Unexpectedly, Lu Bu gave birth to a good son, and he has learned all his skills. Not bad, not bad, but I want to see how much of Lu Bu's skills you wolf have. .”

Seeing such a familiar scene, Cao Cao couldn't help but think of the brave and invincible figure back then. Back then, if Lu Bu hadn't been too arrogant and confident to put aside the advantage of wolf cavalry to go head-to-head with the newly formed tiger and leopard cavalry, I'm afraid , that peerless warrior will not retreat so quickly.

On the battlefield, the [-] elite soldiers around Commander Lu Xiao kept running around Cao Chunwei's periphery. Once Cao Chun seemed to charge towards him, he would immediately run away.

As for the other five teams of wolf cavalry, they used tactics such as cavalry shooting and throwing guns to harass the flanks and rear of Cao Jun's tiger and leopard cavalry.

The battle was stalemate for more than an hour, and Cao Cao and Chen Feng also watched for more than an hour. The soldiers rushed back and forth in the arena, showing their strengths. This battle was really shocking.

The tiger and leopard cavalry commanded by Cao Chun chased Lu Xiao with that indomitable posture, but Lu Xiao seemed to be more mobile. After all, they were not heavy cavalry, and the wolf cavalry officers were skilled in riding, so the stalemate It has not been engulfed by Cao Chun for so long.

"Split, attack separately,,,,,,"

Suddenly, Cao Chun gave the order to divide the troops, and the remaining more than 4000 tiger and leopard cavalry soldiers were immediately divided into two teams. Only then did those with sharp eyes realize that the so-called tiger and leopard cavalry had different attires.

In the middle of the team, there were more than 1000 cavalry in armor. They were covered by the cavalry on the outside, and outsiders couldn't see them at all. In other words, Cao Chun had always wanted to plot against the opponent, but Lu Xiao didn't give him this chance.

The so-called tiger and leopard cavalry are actually the general term for tiger cavalry and leopard cavalry. Leopard cavalry is responsible for tracking, entanglement, arrogance, and tearing apart formations, while tiger cavalry is responsible for rushing, piercing, destroying elite enemies, and breaking enemy formations. Such a combination, Only then can it be regarded as the real tiger and leopard elite.

"Fortunately, I've been on guard against you for a long time. Hmph, Uncle Cao Xing and the others said back then that tiger and leopard cavalry are a combination of light and heavy cavalry. If I hadn't been prepared in advance, I might have been tricked by you this time."

Lu Xiao's face showed a dignified expression. It has to be said that Cao Chun's ability to command the tiger and leopard cavalry is really remarkable. Can play out.

It's not like Cao Chun, who has been using leopard riders to confuse Lu Xiao, and let tiger riders hide in the middle of the team to look for opportunities, so that he can hit a sure hit. Such an opponent is quite difficult to deal with.

"Wooooow,,,,,,"

Lu Xiao blew the horn for assembly. He wanted to call other wolf cavalry officers to move closer to him, but Cao Chun was a step faster and completed the encirclement of a wolf cavalry. Under such circumstances, Lu Xiao Unable to wait any longer, he directly led the elite around him into the encirclement.

After a fierce fight, Lu Xiao broke out of the siege with the support of the surrounding wolf riders. By the way, he also brought out more than [-] wolf riders.

As for the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, although they surrounded the Wolf Cavalry, they could not stop the endless harassment and biting of the surrounding Wolf Cavalry. More importantly, the [-] elite troops led by Lu Xiao charged into battle. The ability is not inferior to that of Tiger Cavalry.

Chapter 710 Difficult stalemate 1

"It's a difficult opponent..."

"Among my peers, this guy is really perverted, he really deserves to be Lu Bu's son..."

After the battle was over, both Lu Xiao and Cao Chun looked back at each other at the same time, and they both spoke highly of each other, feeling like a hero cherishing a hero.

However, if they still meet on the battlefield, I am afraid that they will still act according to death. After all, the two sides are in a state of confrontation, and coupled with the hatred between the Lu family and the Cao family, it cannot be resolved by saying that heroes cherish heroes.

The wolf riders trained by Lu Xiao didn't get any advantage from the tiger and leopard riders, but they didn't suffer too much.At this point, Lu Xiao seemed to have discovered the shortcomings of the wolf riders again, and then trained them again.

In the ensuing confrontation, Zhao Yun, Zhang He and others will each lead their elites to fight against Cao Jun's tiger and leopard cavalry. The battles have tempered their respective elites.

So much so that after two months, the combat effectiveness of most of the soldiers and horses under Chen Feng's command has been raised to a higher level. It seems that actual combat is the fastest way to improve the combat effectiveness of the army.

In the early spring, the confrontation between the two sides was not over yet. Chen Feng was still stationed on the border of the Central Plains, and Cao Cao was unable to withdraw his troops. Both sides had to consume a lot of food and supplies every day, but they could not end the war in a short time.

It wasn't that Cao Cao wanted to spend so much time. During this period, he also organized several large-scale attacks, and even beat the northern army back.

It's just that Chen Feng's subordinates are not so easy to defeat. In addition, the Northern Army's logistics system is complete, and the rear is its own territory. Even if they are defeated by Cao Jun, they can gather quickly.

Time and time again, Cao Jun was miserable. The food and grass brought in from the rear became less and less, and the supplies were not as rich as before. The generals on the front line were worried when they saw it.

The most depressing thing is Cao Cao himself. Xun Yu has sent urgent reports from the rear many times, and the food stocks in various places are basically exhausted. If this continues, I am afraid that even if the frontline soldiers do not suffer defeat, they will easily collapse.

Chen Feng was also depressed like Cao Cao. Although he could loot supplies from the grasslands and transport grain and grass from Liaodong, Youzhou, Bingzhou and other places, the consumption was too great.

You must know that most of Chen Feng's rear is a bitter, cold and barren land. If it hadn't been well developed over the years, coupled with the benefits brought by trade, Chen Feng might have collapsed long ago.

Even so, Chen Feng had to rely on such a large territory to support the front-line war, while Cao Cao only used up half of the Central Plains' grain reserves, so it can be seen how strong Cao Cao's background is.

In this stalemate, Chen Feng had to fight if he didn't want to. As far as the current situation is concerned, he can at least pull Cao Jun to the same level, and then compete in logistical strength.

Moreover, this time Chen Feng took advantage of the disaster in the Central Plains and launched the war when food and grass were in short supply. This kind of opportunity was once in a thousand years. Once Cao Cao was relieved, Chen Feng would never have the chance to take the initiative again.

"Spring plowing is about to start again. The northern part of Jizhou has recovered its ability to cultivate, the southern part of Jizhou has also recovered more than half, and the vitality of northern Qingzhou has recovered more than half.

This is good news for our army. On the other hand, Cao Cao occupies a rich and densely populated area in the Central Plains. If we let him seize this opportunity to store grain in the fields, our previous plan will come to nothing.

Pass on my order, all ministries maintain their formations and move forward, we will bring the battle to the Central Plains, and we must not let Cao Cao slow down.In addition, it is worthwhile to send envoys to Jiangdong to buy grain, no matter how high the price is.

Let's fight with Cao Cao, and it depends on who can't hold on first. Everyone, the decisive battle will come soon. At that time, I hope that you can fight the enemy bravely on the battlefield and defeat Cao's army. "

"We will live up to the lord's orders,,,,,,"

Inside the big tent, Zhao Yun, Zhang Xiu, Zhang He and others looked dignified, and they could appreciate how much their lord attached to this battle.

Since the stalemate last year, people in Hetao have hoarded food and grass, and the generals of all ministries felt the atmosphere of the imminent war, but no one expected that this war would last for so long, so that the fertile land in Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Yanzhou and other places would be destroyed. A lot wasted.

Fortunately, before launching this stalemate, Chen Feng had already eliminated the uneasy factors in the north of his territory. The Southern Huns were completely removed, and the Northern Huns were also defeated.

The Jie clan was directly killed by Zhao Yun, and most of the other Hu people became slaves of the northern border army. In addition, there was Zhang Liao guarding Mobei, and the Yongliang camp was watching over Xiliang.

It can be said that in a short period of time, there will be no uneasy factors in Chen Feng's territory, so he dared to go south to start a war so boldly.

In Xuchang, somewhere in a dark dungeon, a handsome young man is resting his eyes with his eyes closed. He has been imprisoned for more than a year, and he spends it like this every day.

When Cao Cao put him in prison, he ordered that no outsiders be allowed to approach him, and he was not allowed to be given anything other than food, not even a book.

After staying in such an environment for so long, without even having a single person to talk to, this young man can still calmly close his eyes and rest his mind. This skill in self-cultivation is really amazing.

"Hey, it's time to eat."

A yamen servant came over with a food box, and at the same time scolded the young man for coming to eat. In the distance, there were guards standing guard. It seemed that Cao Cao was very strict with this man.

"Master eat well,,,,,,"

Before leaving, the yamen servant said such words in an inaudible voice, the young man must have heard it, but there was no strange look on his face.

"Is it finally here..."

This person is Sima Yi who was imprisoned by Cao Cao. After hearing the words of the yamen servant just now, he knew that the power of his Sima family had penetrated into this prison. , it can be said that it is not easy.

To be honest, Sima Yi is indeed very pitiful. The formerly powerful Sima family is now in ruins, and the strength of the Sima family has also plummeted. If there are not some hidden threads controlling the Sima family, I am afraid that Sima Yi will never have a chance to stand up.

At the beginning, he wanted to encourage Cao Pi to support his troops to stand on his own, but Cao Cao's strong return made all the generals frightened, and then they all led their troops northward to wait for Cao Cao's dispatch.

Even though Sima Yi was confident that he could control Xuchang at that time, he didn't dare to get angry. He could only try his best to push all the suspicions on Cao Pi, and then wait for Cao Cao's punishment.

However, this punishment was too harsh for him. For more than a year, Sima Yi hadn't spoken to anyone else. If it was an ordinary person, he would have collapsed long ago.

Chapter 711 Difficult stalemate 2

At the end of spring, the stalemate in the north was not over yet, and Chen Feng even transferred [-] slaves from the rear after the end of the spring plowing. In this way, the advantage of the northern army in terms of strength became more obvious.
