Three Kingdoms: Opening War Strategy System

"Cao Jun tun troops in Nanyang County and Runan County counties, with an army of more than 400,000 people. Even if the battle is lost for many years, there are at least more than 300,000 troops.

"This time the whole army is dispatched, and we have no way of knowing how many troops the so-called whole army has. However, we can speculate on the marching intentions of the Cao army.

"Cao Jun suddenly made a sharp move, and the intention must be an opportunity to enter Sichuan. The edge of the King of Changshan has already pressed the southern princes to breathe.

"If Cao Cao wants to develop steadily, only Jing Yangyi Sanzhou. This opportunity to enter Sichuan is likely to mobilize the entire army of Nanyang and Runan, trying to attack with all their might!

"Nanyang borders Yizhou Hanzhong, but is hindered by lofty mountains.

"Above there are Wudang Mountain, Danjiang River, Shennongjia and other natural dangers. This place is a dangerous pass in Hanzhong, and a husband should be a pass.

"Further above it borders Si Subordinate, now this is the place controlled by the Changshan Army, Cao Cao must not dare to contact it, lest he avoid it!"

"What's more, entering Sichuan from the border of the division is extremely long, and it is very likely to be intercepted by the Changshan army, and the food and grass are consumed by the march, which is difficult to maintain long-term operations.

"Below Nanyang, there are natural obstacles such as Jingshan and Nanhe. Liu Biao's army was stationed in Fancheng and Xiangyang.

"The only way left for Cao Cao to enter the river is from between Wudang Mountain and Jingshan Mountain. Among them, only Zhuyang, Shandu, Deng County, Fancheng and other places can serve as a springboard to Sichuan.

"In order to avoid Liu Biao's obstruction, Cao Cao must divide his troops to suppress it, defend the flanks, and let the army pass smoothly.

"Therefore, the strength of the Cao army attacking Fancheng must be very strong. And Xinye is located between Fancheng and Nanyang City, and our army bears the brunt of the need to face the impact of the Cao army. "

Xu Shu's detailed analysis made Liu Bei and other generals below listen very seriously, but they also showed great eagerness.

Now that the entire Cao army has been dispatched, how should they send troops?

Soldiers are fast!

A cup of tea and a waste of time can change the direction of a battlefield!

But.

None of them disturbed Xu Shu, and the past few months of getting along had already made them very familiar with Xu Shu's marching style.

"So..."

Xu Shu looked at the generals below and Liu Bei, and said decisively: "We withdraw our troops to Fancheng and Xiangyang and join forces with Liu Biao!" "

"What?!"

Guan Zhang and other generals couldn't believe their ears.

Zhang Fei asked puzzled: "Military master, now that the entire Cao army is dispatched, we will not block it, but still withdraw the army?"

"Shinye is a place where we have been developing for a long time, so do you just give it away?"

Guan Yu felt a pity in his heart, and he was even more disdainful of Cao Jun:

"Even if the Cao army has more than 300,000 troops, what if the whole army is dispatched? Our strength of more than 200,000 troops is enough to compete with it!

"And this withdrawal will leave the enemy behind, which is also a taboo on the march, right?!"

Generals such as Tai Shici and Guan Hai were also the heads of Lianlian.

In this life, Liu Bei has a strong foundation, more than 200,000 yellow turban army arch guards, and also about Zhang Taishi and other generals, has huge confidence!

Xu Shu shook his head and said, "Even if our army can compete with the Cao army. But Cao Jun's entry into Sichuan is now inevitable, and Cao Cao must not hit the southern wall and never look back.

"These two armies hedged, and the losses were all our soldiers. However, what can we gain even if we stop Cao Jun?

"Just take this opportunity, justifiably stay in Fancheng and defend together with Liu Biao, Xinye is just a small city after all!"

Xu Shu's words made Guan Zhang and other generals suddenly realize, and they completely accepted it in their hearts!

They were stationed in Xinye for a long time, serving as the vanguard for Liu Biao, blocking the repeated attacks of the Cao army, and even counterattacking the Cao army.

However.

What did you get?!

Liu Biao's praise? Food and grass heavy funding?

These they don't care!

What they need is a place to thrive!

Since Liu Bei is unwilling to enter Sichuan, he is unwilling to take advantage of the deceased Liu Yan.

Now it is just an opportunity to enter Fan Cheng and join forces with Liu Biao to resist Cao!

If Liu Biao refused, they would have to leave Jingzhou and let Liu Biao face Cao Cao's tiger and wolf division alone!

Liu Bei thought deeply for a long time, and this time said firmly: "Just as the military master said!" The officers and men of our army have done this step, and they have already exhausted their benevolence and righteousness! "

Liu Bei is also ready to withdraw his troops!

Xu Shu bowed his head, his face softened, fortunately Liu Bei was not the kind of foolish loyalty, he chuckled and said jokingly:

"We can't just evacuate and at least teach Cao Jun a big lesson."

Looking at Xu Shu's confident look, everyone's confidence was boosted!

Liu Bei even threw up his hands and said, "But listen to the military master's orders!" "

"Good!"

After Xu Shu bowed his head, he said to the generals and advisers below:

"Sun Qian, Jian Yong, you immediately lead an army of 50,000 to guard the people of Xinye, and all the officials and families will go to Fancheng first."

Liu Bei bowed solemnly to them, and Sun Qian Jianyong bowed his hand and retreated: "We will do it immediately." "

Xu Shu continued: "Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, order you to immediately lead an army of 100,000 to face the battle, block the speed of the Cao army's march, and avoid the enemy behind us.

"Remember not to fight to the death, as long as you hold out until dusk, and fight and retreat, lead an army to Quewei Slope, I will lead the army to ambush in advance."

"Tai Shi Ci, let you fill Shinno City with fire oil, straw, and everything else combustible.

"If in the middle of the night, Cao Jun enters Xinye City, he must light the lamp, this is a plan to set himself on fire..."

This made everyone's eyes light up, and their hearts were looking forward to it more and more!

Xu Shuzi's careful arrangement of troops made everyone on Liu Bei's side feel confident! He was also full of more confidence in the withdrawal of troops to Fancheng.

After the arrangements were made, Liu Bei's side immediately ordered the soldiers and horses to set off separately.

......

Nanyang City.

Cao Cao transferred all of Cao Cao's army, which had been preparing to enter the battlefield of Runan and attack Yuan Shu with all his might, back to Nanyang City.

Even the soldiers in Yanzhou Tuntian, Yanzhou's resources, grain, grass, and other important materials were all transferred to Nanyang City.

Then he divided his troops into three roads and marched towards Yizhou Hanzhong.

Cao Cao's entry into Sichuan this time is bound to win, and if he does not succeed, he will become a benevolent, this is his determination!

The upper route led the army of Xiandeng Death Soldier of Qi Yi, followed by generals such as Cao Chun and Cao Xiu, leading an army of 100,000 pawns, preparing to make a surprise attack from Wudang Mountain and other dangerous passes.

This bold strategic arrangement was modeled on Liu Chen's strategy of sending Xu Huang to climb the Taihang Mountain and make a detour to Luoyang to ambush and attack Dong Zhuo's army.

Although Xu Shu sent spies to explore Wudang Mountain, Wudang Mountain was extremely vast, and it was estimated that it would be difficult to obtain accurate information in a short time.

Cao Cao prepared to let Qi Yi's Xiandeng Death Warriors raid, but by surprise, he could support them from behind to attack Hanzhong after entering Sichuan.

The lower group led an army of 300,000 troops such as Xu Chu, Xiahou Wei, Cao Ren, and Cao Hong, and the tiger and leopard rode to defend it, and marched towards Fancheng.

Arch guard the flank and suppress enemy forces such as Liu Biao and Liu Bei. At the same time, post-cut-off arrangements are carried out.

There are also 100,000 troops on the middle road, and important materials such as the families of the officials and families of the guards, which go directly to Shandu County from the middle road, using this as a springboard to enter Sichuan.

Xu Shu and Liu Bei guessed a little wrong, in fact, the total strength of the Cao army was more than 500,000.

The losses of these years of conquest were huge, but Cao Cao occupied rich places such as Nanyang and Runan, and Yanzhou was developing in Tuntian, and strong conscription also filled many vacancies!

After the formation was in place, Cao Cao immediately ordered the three armies to advance together.

Qi Yi, who was on the road, and others boarded the dead soldiers first, and immediately headed towards Wudang Mountain, and then from the mountain path, over the mountains and mountains, raided Hanzhong.

The army in the middle and the army on the lower road go hand in hand.

However, twenty miles away from Xinye, Xu Chu, Xiahou Wei and other generals led the army and met Guan Zhang's army who came to block.

In this battle, Guan Zhang and the two were a little shocked!

The number of Cao Jun's generals made them all a little stunned. Although Guan Zhang and the two were brave, they faced an army of more than 300,000 people, it was of no help at all!

What's more, Xu Chu and Xia Hou Wei are not idle people!

In this life, due to Liu Chen's birth, Xiahou Wei was not shot down in the eye, and the allusion to pulling out the eye-catching eye did not appear, which also represented that Xia Hou Wei's combat power was stronger!

Plus Cao Ren, Cao Hong and other generals, as well as tigers and leopards riding arch guards.

The moment the two armies collided, Guan Zhang and the other soldiers were defeated!

"Fortunately, the military master is like a god, and he has already prepared!"

Zhang Fei said in shock: "If we stick to Xinye, we will definitely be besieged by the Cao army and killed!" "

"The military division told us to hold out until dusk, when the time came to lead the troops to Quewei Slope. This battle is very difficult! "

Guan Yu solemnly instructed, "Third brother, don't be careless! You and I join forces to attack, don't scatter! "

"Second brother, I know!"

They needed to break off to provide time for Sun Qian and Jian Yong to evacuate the people's families, and they also needed to make Xu Shu's plan completely arranged.

Even if they were defeated and retreated, Guan Zhang and the two still needed to hold on and continue to charge, and the 100,000 troops behind them were also in this kind of battle, quickly depleting.

......

Guan Zhang led an army of 100,000, although it was very arduous and defeated, but it temporarily slowed down the march of the Cao army.

Cao Cao, who was guarding the rear army, learned of the battle report at the front for the first time.

Cao Cao looked at the topographic map and said directly and decisively: "Let Zhongkang suppress Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and let Miocai in the middle detour to Fancheng." "

"Yes."

Xia Houyuan immediately led the troops from the middle and separated and directly and quickly killed Fan Cheng.

Their primary goal was to enter Sichuan, not to increase losses with Liu Bei.

Xia Houyuan led the cavalry to march forward in a hurry, and just happened to meet Sun Qian, Jian Yong and other families who were moving forward.

Fortunately, Guan Hai led the army to defend it, and the two sides began to fight.

Between Nanyang City-Xinye-Fancheng, several battlefields were opened, and the war was fierce, and every moment soldiers fell, and blood flowed like rivers!

It can be described as the most tragic battle since the confrontation between Cao Jun and Liu Bei!

Over time.

Guan Zhang felt that dusk was approaching, and directly fought and retreated, and the two generals joined forces to lure Xu Chu and the other soldiers towards the Quewei slope.

Cao Ren, Cao Hong and other generals took this opportunity to go directly to Xinye, preparing to storm Xinye and avoid being attacked behind them when they attacked Fancheng!

......

Magpie tail slope aspect.

Xu Shu and Liu Bei watched from the top of the mountain.

Just as Xu Chu and other generals were lured here, his eyes lit up after seeing Liu Bei's big ear thief.

As a tiger marquis, Xu Chu is strong in martial arts and full of courage, so naturally he will not be afraid to fight. Directly lead the army to find the way uphill.

But who knew that when Xu Chu was halfway up the mountain, logs and boulders rolled down the mountain, which not only made him unable to advance, but also made him lose his troops.

"Withdraw!"

Xu Chu decisively ordered the withdrawal of troops, and Cao Cao told him that entering Sichuan was the first priority, and Xu Chu did not forget it.

Xu Shu on the mountain had some regret: "It's a pity." If they insist on a blaze of incense, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei will be able to surround them! "

Liu Bei laughed, already very satisfied with the results of the battle: "Military master, this victory is quite fruitful, greed is not enough to swallow elephants!" "

"That's it!"

Xu Shu shook his head and smiled: "Master, we need to retreat."

"I didn't expect that the Cao army's background and offensive were so strong, and his subordinates felt that Fan Cheng was also very dangerous! We need to prepare early! "

Liu Bei bowed.

They have always misestimated the total strength of the Cao army, and now they are in a passive situation, and it is a fluke that they can win a few small games!

Of course, Xu Shu's arrangement of troops and strategic arrangements are also of great merit.

......

Shinno aspect.

Cao Ren and other generals led their troops to Xinye City.

It's just that just when they were preparing to storm, Xinye City was wide open, and there was not a single soldier guarding the city tower.

Cao Ren was also cautious, sent troops into the city to investigate, and after finding that there was no one in the city, he relaxed and led the army into the city to station.

It's just that.

As the night deepened, after the soldiers lit torches and lamps, there were always negligent people who let the torches fall to the ground.

Originally, it was just a harmless little thing, just put out a small fire.

But who knew that Xu Shu ordered people to be full of fire oil and straw, and this was out of control!

Under the night breeze, this fire was surging, and in the blink of an eye, with the help of fire oil and straw, the entire Xinye City suddenly burst into flames!

Cao Ren and other soldiers rushed from Nanyang City to Xinye during the day, just when they were physically and mentally exhausted to repair.

This burning did not make them react immediately.

Until the defenders yelled "Gone water!" Gone with water! Many sleeping soldiers woke up and fled towards the fireless area in panic.

However, the fire oil and straw fueled the fire, causing a raging fire, and the smoke choked the nose, and the soldiers panicked, like headless flies, and it was difficult to find a way out.

Many soldiers were burned alive and trampled on each other, which can be described as countless deaths and injuries, which is miserable!

Cao Ren and other generals were also in a hurry, seeing that they were about to be besieged to death, but fortunately, some soldiers roared: "There is no fire at the east gate!" No fire at the east gate! "

The survivors hurried to the east gate before they were out of danger!

Just right now.

Tai Shici led the army to kill, and how could Cao Ren and other remnants of the defeated army resist these enemy troops who were waiting for labor, and immediately fled in all directions.

Tai Shici also ignored the soldiers and went straight to Cao Ren.

But right now.

Xu Chu and other generals who fled in a hurry finally led their army to Xinye, and when they saw the burning Xinye, they knew that Cao Ren and other soldiers were fierce.

When the hurried march arrived, he happened to encounter Tai Shici chasing and killing Cao Ren, and Xu Chu was full of courage and directly faced the battle.

Tai Shici was logically invincible to Xu Chu, but Xu Chu and Guan Zhang fought and consumed, and later lost troops at Quewei Slope, which was huge.

The two sides actually fought back and forth!

Tai Shici also did not love the battle, and after fighting each other for twenty or thirty rounds, he directly chose to withdraw his troops and leave!

Xu Chu and other Cao Army generals did not pursue and kill, they suffered major disasters one after another, lost their troops and generals, and consumed a huge amount.

Now is the moment when it needs to be repaired, otherwise they will not be able to enter Fancheng at all. Not to mention Irikawa in the back.

"What a shame!"

Cao Ren came to Xu Chu's side, with a look of fireworks, gray face, and embarrassment: "It's really unfavorable to be a teacher!" Liu Bei's big eared thief is really hateful! "

"Alas, it is necessary to send troops to inform the general!"

Xu Chu sighed and said, "It seems that we are going to be like Xiahou and them, and we are going to plead guilty!" "

Not long ago, Xiahou was forbidden and had just been burned in Bowangpo. They were defeated by fire attack in Xinye City again!

Really fell twice in the same place!

......

The Cao army was temporarily stationed near Xinye City for repairs.

Tai Shici led his army towards Fancheng.

Guan Zhang in the back also led his army to round with Liu Bei and Xu Shu, and the group made a detour to Fancheng.

In this battle, although they also suffered some losses, it could be described as a great victory, which taught the Cao army a great lesson.

If it weren't for Xu Chu's support too quickly, Cao Ren and the other soldiers might have folded in the new wild!

Now that Liu Bei and the others went to Xiangyang to meet Liu Biao, it can be regarded as leaving with battle merits, so they will not be turned away at this time, right?!

......
