"The courage of the generals is commendable, but the enemy is strong and we are weak. At this time, the decisive battle has not come yet... let's find a better strategy!"

Cao Cao was also very angry, and wished he could rush out of the city and fight with real swords and guns, but he couldn't do it. As the commander of the army, he couldn't raise his troops out of a moment of anger, or he would only fall into the enemy's trap!

All the people in charge of the army understand a truth. If you want to attack the opponent's camp, you must have more than three times the strength and attack in turn. This is the only way to have a chance of winning. Moreover, the casualties of the attacking side are several times that of the defending side. The white horse just now In the battle, didn't Cao's army rely on Jiancheng to kill and wound Yuan's army in large numbers?

Yuan Jun's camp has been built for more than a month. There are many ditches, dense antlers, and barriers one after another. Those who have passed through the battlefield are among the "Four Generals of Hebei"!

To deal with such a strong enemy camp, 10,000+ Cao troops must come out and attack with all their strength. The victory or defeat is only between five and five.

Even if you win by luck, you will have to pay a huge price. Cao Jun's strength is already at a disadvantage. If he loses a large number of fresh troops, Baima City will still be unable to defend. Therefore, no matter what the outcome after the war, Cao Jun will inevitably collapse. What will happen to me!

The offense was defeated, and the defense was also defeated. In a dilemma, Cao Cao was also frowning, so he had to turn his attention to Guo Jia... Wushuang ghost, a man who can create miracles!

"It's as clever as it is clumsy. Yuan Jun takes every step at every step, and Wanquan wins with strength. There is indeed no way to crack such a simple strategy, but we can't win if we can't win, can't we avoid it..."

In the face of absolute strength, any strategy is useless, and Guo Jia, who is extremely smart, is also helpless. However, "Sun Tzu's Art of War" said well, if you can fight, you will fight, if you can't fight, you will defend, and if you can't fight, follow the rules. If you can't win, then go away!

However, under the strict surveillance of the enemy, it is not an easy task to withdraw 10,000+ troops. Guo Jia smiled faintly, stuck it in Cao Cao's ear, and whispered...

"Feng Xiao is a 'ghost', and his tricks are exquisite. Let me take a step back for the time being, to be proud of the enemy, what happens next... Ha ha!"

After listening to the strategy, Cao Cao nodded frequently. Masters play chess without worrying about a city or a place. What is lost today will be regained a hundred times tomorrow!

......................................................................................................

"Hoo!...Hoo! Hoo!"

After more than ten days of being useless, Cao Jun finally wanted to fight back. Their method was: light a bonfire on the city wall, and when the flames were strong, they threw some wet grass on them. In an instant, thick smoke billowed like a dance. Flood Dragon quickly enveloped Baima City...

Setting fire on the top of the city will naturally not burn Yuan Jun on the wall. As for the billowing smoke, at most the other party will cough a few times, but it will not be lethal. All become blind!

"Damn Cao Jun, it's okay to release some smoke, it choked me to death...The brothers continued to shoot arrows, day and night, killing them alive!"

"Swoosh!... Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Facing the thick smoke, Yuan Jun didn't care. On the battlefield, arrows were fired randomly. Aiming is not important, as long as the density is enough. Anyway, Baima City is there, and everyone can shoot randomly with their eyes closed. Go to some 'blind house sparrows'!

Therefore, Yuan Jun was divided into three shifts, beating drums, sounding horns, shooting arrows, insulting, booing day and night... As long as you persevere, Cao Jun will be tortured crazy sooner or later!

Three days later, a gust of north wind suddenly struck, blowing away the thick smoke. After Yuan Jun observed carefully, he found that Baima City had not changed. Cao Jun was still hiding in the bunker, motionless, like a wooden sculpture made of clay!

Since Cao Jun is still standing firm, let's continue to beat drums, sound horns, shoot arrows, insult, boo...especially drink more water, so that we can urinate far and more!

After another three days, Yuan Jun felt that something was wrong. Even if Cao Jun was determined and would not retreat, they were human after all, so they had to eat, drink, and sleep. However, after a few days of observation, the opposing soldiers did not move at all. , not to mention the normal patrols, there is not even a 'shush', they are all lying in the bunker, motionless!

Under so many doubts, Yuan Jun couldn't sit still anymore, and sent several dead soldiers to climb up the city wall with ropes under the cover of night, and sneaked into Baima City to check Cao Jun's situation at close range...

"Cao's army has all fled, and no one is left behind. Baima City is ours!"

"The enemy fled, but our army won a big victory... Tell the lord quickly, and there will be a lot of rewards!"

......................................................

The dead men were quickly selected, and after drinking the strong wine, they set off without hesitation. Next, they took advantage of the night to climb up the city wall, sneak in, and opened the city gate smoothly, announcing A shocking news... Cao Jun has all fled, and the city is empty!

It turned out that during the few days covered by thick smoke, 10,000+ Cao troops withdrew from Baima City by taking advantage of the blind spot in the opponent's line of sight. The retreat was calm and unbreakable, and the walk was extremely chic!

As for the figures seen by the archers, they were nothing more than scarecrows, dressed in Cao Jun's costumes, placed in the trench to confuse their eyes. The real Cao Jun brigade has successfully retreated to Guandu, where they will regroup and make a comeback!

Chapter 841 The army crossed the Yellow River, how many people are still home?

The major events in the world are a game of chess, and the winners and losers are kept in mind.

Even if there is overwhelming power, the lion will not underestimate the enemy against the rabbit!

"Haha! Bandit Cao had no choice but to abandon the city and flee. This really made the old man very angry... Order the three armies to cross the Yellow River and approach Guandu. Bandit Cao must be captured alive and humiliated!"

After receiving the battle report, Yuan Shao was ecstatic, and his whole body was in high spirits. Cao Jun was defeated across the board, and Baima and Yanjin were all in his hands. The land of the Central Plains!

Yuan Shao has already made up his mind. After conquering Xuchang, he will hold a grand entrance ceremony. The emperor will come out of the palace to greet him, and all the officials will be waiting at the gate of the city. As for Cao Cao, let him lead the horse for himself, and let the world see it Look, who is the unrivaled hero... Hehe!

"Cao thief abandoned the city and left, but his strength was not damaged. There are still 10,000+ troops. My lord, don't underestimate the enemy. At this time, the time is not yet ripe to cross the river. It is better to stay on the north bank of the Yellow River and send a team to test it out. no!"

Tian Feng stood up and spoke bluntly again. Based on his understanding of Cao Cao's character, this traitor would not give up easily. Abandoning the White Horse and Yanjin lines was just a trick of "retreating into advance" to lure the enemy Go deep!

From the perspective of the overall strategy, Yuan Jun was stationed on the north bank of the Yellow River. He was able to move forward and retreat freely, and was flexible. Take the initiative in war!

Conversely, once tens of thousands of people cross the Yellow River, the strategic advantage will no longer exist. There is a natural barrier at Guandu in the front, and the Yellow River in the back. Jishui is on the left, and the chasm is on the right. The terrain is surrounded by water, which is equivalent to entering a natural Encirclement, if there is an unexpected situation, even if you want to run, you can't find your way!

Besides, the entire army crossed the Yellow River, which also lengthened the supply line. The ordnance, food and grass in the rear had to be transported across the Yellow River by boats to supply tens of thousands of horses. Once the food road is cut off, the army will be defeated without fighting!

It was precisely in consideration of the above two points that Tian Feng opposed the massive southward march. It was best to send a vanguard to attack the Guandu defense line and test Cao's strength. It won't hurt the root, and the whole army can continue to fight, consuming the opponent alive!

"Mr. Yuan Hao, don't worry too much. Cao's army has been defeated and has no power to fight back. If we don't take advantage of the victory and pursue it at this time, will Cao thief cultivate his strength and make a comeback?"

If it was a few days ago, Yuan Shao could still listen to some suggestions, but now, with the army conquering the two cities of Baima and Yanjin, it is inevitable that he would feel proud, and he would listen to different opinions there!

At the same time, Yuan Shao began to feel dissatisfied. Tian Feng is loyal and good at strategy. In the past, for the sake of the overall situation, I reluctantly tolerated it. Now that Cao Jun has collapsed across the board, and I am sure of winning, I don't have to bear it anymore, right?

However, it is not easy to drive away a meritorious person, at least an excuse is needed. Thinking of this, Yuan Shao turned his eyes, looking for the person who can best figure out his own mind and has the least moral bottom line... Xu You!

"My lord is wise and powerful, and he is begging for thieves for the country. Now that the war has been won, how can he linger? As long as the army crosses the Yellow River to show the situation of the world, all the officials in the court and the princes from all walks of life will surely respond. Cao's thief is worried Under foreign aggression, is there any reason to be invincible?

As for the logistics, there is no need to worry too much. It is already the middle of winter, and the Yellow River is about to freeze. At that time, thousands of miles of waves will make the road smooth, and people, horses, and vehicles can come and go freely. Why worry about the supply of food and grass? Well, if Mr. Yuan Hao is worried, how about sitting in Liyang City and supervising the logistical affairs? "

Xu You is greedy, he only loves yellow and white things, and his character is even worse. However, he is also considered a resourceful man, and what he said is quite reasonable. Attitude, those wait-and-see princes will definitely respond, especially Jiangdong-Sun Ce, as long as he sends troops to Jianghuai, under the attack from the north and the south, Cao Jun will undoubtedly be defeated!

"Liyang is the base of our army, and it must be guarded by important ministers. Among all the advisers, there is no one more suitable than Mr. Yuan Hao. Please go there immediately!"

According to Xu You's suggestion, with a wave of his hand, Yuan Shao assigned Tian Fengfa to Liyang directly, and placed him under the command of his second son, Yuan Xi. Without this 'fly' in front of him, he could live a few days of peace!

"Your subordinates obey!... Immediately go to Liyang to supervise the matter of food, grass and ordnance!"

Now, it is impossible to leave, Tian Feng's face is ashamed, since ancient times, the king doubts the minister, and the minister must die, the master has such an attitude, I am afraid that his life is in danger?

After the order was issued, Yuan Shao turned around and left the big tent in order to avoid accidents, and the rest of the civil and military officials also retreated one after another... There were only two people left in the big tent. !

"Brother Yuan Hao doesn't need to worry. Let's go to Liyang to rest for a few days. Once you find an opportunity, brother Yu will persuade the lord to let you return to the camp and participate in the military aircraft. Today's matter, I really wronged you!"

Jushou took a few steps forward and slowly helped Tian Feng up. The two have similar personalities and are both loyal people. After getting along for many years, they have long been brothers in love!

"Hehe!...It's not a big deal to bend my heart alone. It's a pity that there are hundreds of thousands of athletes in Hebei. After crossing the Yellow River this time, how many of them can survive back to their hometown?"

Tian Feng smiled wryly and shook his head. He was loyal, suspicious, full of strategy, and could not be reused. How sad his life is now...Comparing Guo Jia, Cheng Yu, Xun Yu and others, maybe he chose the wrong lord?

..................................................................................................................

The Yellow River is thousands of miles away, with nine turns and rough waves. Yuan's army has hundreds of thousands of horses, plus the accompanying auxiliary soldiers and civilian husbands, the total number exceeds one million. As for vehicles, horses, grain, grass, and weapons... there are countless people. How easy is it to cross over?
