Great Wei Nengchen

The crowd gathered firewood and the flames were high, and the thousands of troops filled the trenches quickly. With the efforts of the generals of Cao Jun, after half an hour, several trenches were filled and leveled.

"Kill! - According to the order to hunt down the thieves, Cao's army will surely win!"

"Come on! - Stick to the line of defense and never retreat!"

………………

The soldiers of the two armies entangled together, wielding their weapons, fighting bravely, cutting with knives, stabbing with spears, chopping with axes, slamming eyes, kicking younger brothers...as long as they can kill the enemy, they will do everything they can, even biting like wild beasts. Corpses piled up, blood flowed like a river...

At this time, I can see the ferocity of Cao Jun. He moved forward bravely, advancing but not retreating. The enemy he killed retreated step by step. It took only an hour to capture the first trench. No matter how unwilling Yuan Jun was, he could only retreat to the second line up!

Next, Cao Jun cleaned up the battlefield and treated the wounded. In just two hours, thousands of soldiers were killed and more than [-] people were injured.

"The enemy army is brave and good at fighting. It is worthy of being the army of tigers and wolves. Cao Mengde is a good soldier. There is also a damn thunderbolt car. It is powerful and frightening. It makes our soldiers panic. I heard that it was designed by Xiao Yi. It is really shameful." To the extreme!"

A ditch was lost, Yuan's army was shaken across the board, and even deserters appeared. Yuan Shao jumped in front of the formation, holding a beheading knife, executed several retreating generals, and hung their heads high for public display, and then he stabilized his position!

"Cao Jun's offensive is vigorous, and our army has suffered heavy casualties. I'm afraid it will be difficult to sustain it. Should we use an ambush to turn the tide of the battle?"

Yuan Shang walked out from the defeated army, covered in blood. He was in charge of guarding a trench. He thought that he could hold on for a day from a commanding position, but in just two hours, Cao Jun took it away. It's really chilling!

"Cao's army is in high spirits, and all the soldiers and horses have not been dispatched. It is still too early to use ambushes. Tell the soldiers, if you stick to the second trench, whoever dares to take half a step back will kill the whole family!"

Yuan Shao pondered for a moment, then shook his head resolutely, the battle has just begun, the situation has not yet been clarified, and he will never use his ultimate move until the last moment!

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

"Kill! -- Go forward bravely, rush through the ditch, and drown Yuan Jun in the river!"

"Hold it! - The general has an order, who dares to take half a step back, kill the whole family, and destroy the nine clans!"

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

After making some adjustments, Cao Jun continued to attack the second ditch. The process was the same. The thunderbolt chariot smashed, the archers shot, and the auxiliary soldiers filled the trench.

Under the harsh military law, Yuan Jun also desperately yelled, relying on the favorable terrain, to kill and injure the opponent's soldiers with all his strength. The third son Yuan Shang personally led and supervised the battle team, killing heads rolling, blood flowing like a river...

One side is bound to win, and the other side will not retreat, so it depends on who is stronger. Cao Jun will take the lead and fight all at the front line, charge repeatedly, fight for every inch of land, and pay more than 1 casualties. Occupied the second trench!

At sunset and dusk, the birds returned to their nests, and the soldiers who killed the real fire did not return to the camp to rest, but chose to fight at night. Compared with fighting during the day, it was undoubtedly more difficult and bloody!

Chapter 969

People in the Qin and Han dynasties used corn as the staple food, seriously lacked vegetables and meat, and lacked vitamins in their bodies. "Night blindness" was very common. In a dark environment, people's vision was extremely poor, and they could not even see things. Therefore, Night battles rarely happen. It's not that I don't want to fight, but it's too difficult to fight, and the chance of accidental injury is too high!

Cao Cao has led the army for many years and has rich experience. He naturally knows the taboo of night battles. However, the trenches dug by Yuan Jun are high on the inside and low on the outside. up!

At this point in the battle situation, you can only advance, not retreat an inch. There is a sea of ​​swords and flames ahead, and you have to bite the bullet. After night fell, instead of retreating, Cao Jun increased his troops, beat the drums desperately, and continued to storm the third trench !

"Kill! - There is no retreat, bloody battle to the end!"

"Come on! - The one who arrives first will be rewarded with a thousand pieces of gold!"

………………

Difficulties are used to conquer. Since it is hard to see at night, then hold up a fire to illuminate. The generals of Cao Jun held weapons in one hand and brandished torches in the other. use!

People are willing to work hard, and God also helps. That night, the bright moon was in the sky, the stars were shining brightly, and the moonlight like water shone on the battlefield, which was more useful than thousands of torches!

In order to boost morale, Cao Cao came to the front line in person, standing on a high slope, beating drums to cheer, and directing the battle. Therefore, all the soldiers marched forward bravely and desperately attacked the third trench. Even so, the progress was very slow. There are three reasons. :

First, Cao Jun soldiers have been fighting for a whole day, not to mention the heavy casualties, the body is also very tired, the fighting spirit is high in the heart, but the body is weak!

Second, Yuan Jun arrayed with his back to the water, there was no way to retreat, the rabbit was in a hurry and bit people, not to mention 10,000+ soldiers, naturally resisted desperately, and the bloody battle would not retreat!

Third, in the night, the vision is extremely poor, and Cao Jun's big killer - Thunderbolt Car, also lost its aim. The third trench is close to the river bank, the ground is muddy, it is difficult for the projectile to roll over, and the lethality has dropped by half!

When it comes to this point, we can only fight recklessly and risk our lives. Cao's army is dispatched, and the troops are divided into four teams to launch fierce attacks in turn. Those who retreat in the face of battle, immediately beheaded to show the public, righteousness does not collect money, kindness does not command soldiers, this is the true meaning of war!

On the battlefield - with little sparks, screaming and killing, Cao Jun is like a huge net, constantly tightening in all directions; Yuan Jun is a big fish, rolling up and down, struggling desperately, whether to catch them all with one net, or to kill the fish and break the net, it depends on their own abilities!

Attack, counterattack, attack again, counterattack again... The two sides saw each other repeatedly, resulting in countless casualties, corpses strewn across the field, blood flowing like rivers, fighting until midnight, both armies were exhausted, at this time, we can see the strength of Cao Jun !

The soldiers charged forward, those with better eyesight brandished weapons, fought desperately, and even exchanged their lives; those with poor eyesight prostrated themselves on the ground and fumbled around with their hands. Cao Jun was well-equipped and wore cowhide boots , Yuan Jun rushed into battle, there were many people with cloth shoes, straw sandals, and bare feet. If they touched any boots that were not cowhide boots, Cao Jun's soldiers swung their knives and chopped them down, endlessly!

The auxiliary soldiers followed behind and were responsible for filling the trenches. In the dark, it was inconvenient to carry them. What was the use? Stones, soil, straw, firewood... and even dead people and horses were all thrown in and filled up with flesh and blood. Several trenches!

"All victories! - all victories! - all victories for Cao Jun!"

After a night of bloody fighting and fighting all night, at dawn, after paying huge casualties, Cao Jun finally occupied the trench. The soldiers faced the rising sun, brandishing their weapons, and the sound of shouting was earth-shattering. At this point, victory is within reach!

On the other hand, Yuan Jun suffered heavy casualties, and the rest retreated to the edge of Weishui, crying and shouting. The formation was chaotic and basically lost their combat effectiveness. As long as the opponent rushed over, they would have to jump into the river to feed the fish!

"Heaven bless you, life and death, victory or defeat, depends on the last fight. Don't be complacent, I still have a hole card for my brother!"

By the Weishui River, Yuan Shao is holding a treasured sword, drenched in blood, looking extremely embarrassed, but in his eyes, there is no frustration of the defeated, but full of hope. As long as the plan goes well, he still has a chance to come back!

In this Battle of Cangting, Yuan Shao's back-to-back formation was not a mistake in using troops, but a great intention. One was to motivate the soldiers to fight bravely, and the other was to imitate Han Xin and try to survive!

In the third year of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, the general Han Xin led more than 1 people and set out from Guanzhong to attack Zhao Guo. He met Jingxing Pass with 20 Zhao soldiers. At this time, the enemy was outnumbered and the terrain was unfavorable.

Han Xin then divided his troops into two groups. One army lined up against the water and fought the Zhao army head-on, and retreated step by step.

At the same time, another Han army with 20 cavalry suddenly rushed into the Zhao army's camp, pulled out the flags inside, and replaced them with the red flags of the Han army. He also became a prisoner, but Han Xin became famous in the first battle and sat on the throne of "Soldier Immortal"!

Yuan Shao is familiar with military books, and has this allusion in mind. Now that the enemy is strong and we are weak, it is difficult to win. He also wants to follow the wisdom of the "Soldier Immortal" and defeat the mighty Cao army. Yes, the real killing move is - Jiang Qi!

The situation in Bingzhou was tense. Jiang Qi led [-] elite supporters, but he was summoned back when he walked halfway. For this new force, Yuan Shao did not enter the Cangting battlefield, but secretly ambushed!

The military order Jiang Qi received was: to lurk near the battlefield, wait until Cao's army is fully dispatched, break through three trenches, and when he is overjoyed, suddenly rush into Cao's camp, burn the grain, tents, and ordnance inside, and then attack inside and outside to wipe out Cao's army in one fell swoop. main force!

This kind of strategy is very superb, very feasible, and it is progressing smoothly, but, Cao Cao can memorize the art of war that Yuan Shao has read, no matter how powerful the military master is, isn't it "Success is also Xiao He, and defeat is also Xiao He"? ?

"Ignite the thick smoke, put out all the ambush soldiers, attack inside and outside, defeat Cao's army, and turn the tide!"

Yuan Shao gave an order, and the soldiers lit three bonfires, and threw on wet firewood. In an instant, three puffs of thick smoke shot up into the sky, like three evil dragons with teeth and claws, which could be seen clearly even tens of miles away!

"Long! -Long! -Long!"

After the signal was sent out, a group of men and horses suddenly surged out from a dense forest on the east side of the battlefield, holding Yuan Jun's flag high, and rushed straight to Cao Jun's camp at an extremely fast speed. It was Jiang Qi's [-] ambush soldiers!

At this time, Cao Jun was mobilized, and the camp was extremely empty, and it was too late to come back for help. Once this army was let in, the retreat would be cut off, and the remnants of Yuan Jun in the encirclement would also come back to life. The Ting war is about to be reversed, and the Northern Expedition will come to naught!

"The general had a clever plan, and the ambush went straight to Cao Ying, and we were brought back to life!"

"The army flanks back and forth, kills everything, and avenges Guandu!"
