Three Kingdoms: Starting War Strategy System

The news that Yizhou Liu Zhang chose to surrender and sent envoy Zhang Song to Hanzhong soon reached the Chibi front line via communication pigeons.

When Liu Chen saw Liu Zhang's letter asking for surrender, a smile appeared on his face, and there was a sense of relief that his goal was about to be achieved.

Now Hanzhong, the throat of Yizhou, is already in the hands of the Liangzhou Army, and the land in Yizhou's belly that is under the control of Liu Zhang will soon be in the hands of Liu Chen, just waiting for the Changshan Army to take over.

On the Jingzhou side, Huang Zhong, Zhang Jia and other generals were unstoppable and had captured all the land in Changsha County and Wuling County.

Lingling County and Guiyang County in the south of Jingzhou are already in danger.

After seeing Liu Zhang's letter asking for surrender, Liu Chen directly ordered Huang Zhong, Zhang Jia and other generals to temporarily put down the attack on Lingling and Guiyang counties and surround Yizhou Bajun on his side.

Zhang Xiu, Xu Rong, Hua Xiong and other generals also led an army of 100,000 people and set out from Hanzhong to pursue Cao's army from Lizhi Road.

With this move, Liu Chen wanted to surround Cao's army!

Even though Cao Cao was at the end of his rope, Liu Chen still did not take it lightly.

Liu Chen still fully recognized Cao Cao, a man of great talent and strategy, who deserved to be treated with such attention!

Liu Chen's order was quickly conveyed via communication pigeon.

After receiving the order, Huang Zhong, Zhang Jia and other generals did not hesitate to give up the option of continuing southward and instead surrounded Bajun.

According to the intelligence of their Changshan Army, Cao's army was stationed in Bajun and stationed troops in Fuling, Jiangzhou and other places.

This place is easy to defend but difficult to attack, but Huang Zhong, Zhang Jia and other generals did not back down and led their troops to overcome many obstacles, climb mountains and ridges, and cross surging rivers.

Finally, half a month later, they came into contact with Cao Jun's frontline scouts.

Relying on the early warning of the scouting pigeons and the excellent personal strength of the soldiers, the Changshan Army eliminated the scouts one by one and gradually launched a surprise attack towards Fuling, where Cao's army was stationed.

However, Cao Jun's defense was also very tight. After Huang Zhong and other generals advanced ten miles, they were finally warned by Cao Jun's sentry.

Behind Huang Zhong, Zhang Jia and other generals were an army of 150,000 men. Even if they marched carefully and mobilized so intensively, they could not hide their presence for long.

On Cao Jun's side, he quickly dispatched generals such as Yu Jin and Qu Yi to lead an army of 100,000 to meet the enemy. The two sides fought at Yanshan, twenty miles away from Fuling.

Yanshan is the barrier on the east side of Fuling County and must be guarded to the death. Otherwise, if Changshan's army is allowed to cross the Yanshan, it will only take twenty miles to reach the city!

Cao's army occupies a favorable location and is condescending. There are also generals such as Yu Jin and Qu Yi to defend the area. The elite soldiers such as the dead soldiers first climbed up to defend the surrounding areas, guarding the rocky mountains like a copper wall and an iron wall.

Huang Zhong, Zhang Jia and other generals' offensive, which had been unstoppable, finally stalled!

At the foot of the mountain.

Looking at the dense mountains all around, Huang Zhong looked a little serious:

"According to the message sent by the scout pigeon, it is surrounded by mountains and mountains for hundreds of miles in all directions. It seems that there is no way around it.

In a short period of time, it will be difficult to explore the mountain trails and break out.

However, if it is a forceful attack, and the enemy is in a commanding position and has defensive preparations such as rolling logs, rocks, and kerosene, our army will definitely suffer some damage."

The generals nodded repeatedly.

They opened their jaws and agreed:"Although Cao's army is a defeated army, it is still hanging on.

But it is undeniable that these generals have excellent marching and combat capabilities, and the first to die is true to their name, and they are not afraid of death.

The enemy has no way to retreat. It is a last-ditch battle. If you fight for your life, the gain outweighs the loss!"

They want to break through the defense lines of Yu Jin and Qu Yi, then go straight to Huanglong, march towards Fuling, and capture Cao Cao alive to take credit. But they don't want too many casualties. They are all brothers who followed them in the north and south, so death in battle is not terrible. , the terrible thing is meaningless death!

"In this case, the soldiers were ordered to set up camp and rest. Now in December, the daytime is fine, but the temperature drops sharply at night, which is extremely harmful to the enemy! Huang

Zhong suggested:"Also, Zhang Xiu and Xu Rong are chasing Cao's army from the Lychee Road. We can wait for them to approach, encircle the two armies, and attack from both front and rear. Unexpected effects are bound to occur!""

He opened his jaw and nodded in agreement:

"If the enemy doesn't move, I won't move. Our army is not in a hurry. On the contrary, Cao's army has reached a critical moment of life and death. Every moment is a torment!"

Zang Ba, Gao Shun and other generals also nodded repeatedly.

It is the twelfth lunar month of winter in December. Although it is not as exaggerated as three feet of ice and snow, the temperature difference between day and night is huge, which still poses a great challenge to the warmth of the soldiers.

The Changshan Army's equipment lineup was luxurious and complete, and Liu Chen's various inventions created great convenience and assistance for the soldiers' march.

They did not believe that Cao Jun also had such complete equipment. The

Changshan Army soldiers quickly set up camp, preparing to fight with The enemy troops faced off, waiting for Zhang Xiu and other Liangzhou troops to pursue and approach. The two armies attacked Cao Jun in front and back.

On the rock mountain,

Yu Jin and Qu Yi were waiting in a tight formation.

However, when they saw the Changshan army below, they did not launch a strong attack, but instead set up camp. Their faces became serious

"They actually plan to confront us and consume us!"

Yu Jin looked a little sad:

"Now we are surrounded in Bajun. Although we still have food surplus, with the consumption of more than 200,000 troops, we will soon be stretched to the point of being stretched. At that time, it will be dangerous!

Moreover, in the face of the Changshan Army's attack, our army's morale has been shaken. If it continues to be delayed, one will ebb and the other will go up, and the morale will fall and it will be difficult to recover!"

Cao's army was running around, and Hanzhong, the place where it had developed for a long time, was also occupied by the Liangzhou Army not long ago.

If they continue to be consumed, they really can't defeat the Changshan Army.

What's more, they also got the news that Hanzhong Liang Zhang Xiu and Xu Rong led their troops to pursue them. Cao Jun's Bao Xin, Zhang Yan, Cao Ren, Cao Chun and other generals struggled to resist them.

If the delay continues and the Changshan Army and Liangzhou Army encircle and attack from both front and rear, Cao Jun can It’s dangerous!

"Take the opportunity to attack while they are setting up camp! Qu Yi said coldly and solemnly:"I will take the lead in the attack with the dead soldiers, and General Yu will raid the formation for me to help defend!""

"good!" Yu Jin thought for a moment and then agreed.

This plan is not daring, and the enemy even deliberately lured them to attack.

But now the situation is stronger than the others, and Cao's army has no time. It is a life-or-death moment. Changshan's army has a steady stream of logistics. As stable as Mount Tai.

In this desperate situation, they must take risks and fight an exciting victory.

In addition to blocking the Changshan Army, this is also to restore the precarious morale of the army!

Yu Jin and Qu Yi conspired for a long time, and finally took the lead in front of the dead man.

It was a pity that the reconnaissance pigeons in the sky sent the news back, and Huang Zhong, Zhang Jia and other generals were also prepared for it. Qu

Yi's first-death warriors were not afraid of death and were still unable to break through the Changshan Army's defense line. Instead, they were counterattacked were defeated and retreated steadily.

If not for Yu Jin's strong rescue, the entire army of the dead soldiers would have been lost at the foot of the mountain.

However, this sneak attack also suffered heavy losses, leaving three to four thousand casualties. Qu Yi was even killed by Huang Zhongyi The arrow hit the arm and the blood flowed endlessly!

During this battle, the Changshan Army camp gave out cheers that resounded throughout the sky, obviously celebrating the victory of the counterattack.

On the other hand, Cao's army who attacked in a sneak attack suffered heavy casualties among the first casualties, and thousands of ordinary soldiers were also injured. It's really Stealing the chicken will lose the rice.

Cao's army had just retreated to the mountain. Huang Zhong and Zhang Jia did not miss this opportunity. Taking advantage of the victory, they pursued and attacked the mountain. Yu Jin was shocked and turned pale. He hurriedly ordered his soldiers to take care of Qu Yi and went to the front line to command and dispatch in person. , to block the Changshan Army's attack on the mountain.

This battle lasted for more than two hours, and Changshan Army retreated as soon as it was good, and finally chose to retreat. The defensive battle was barely a small victory, but Yu Jin couldn't be happy no matter what, and came back in embarrassment and injured. To the rear.

Looking at Qu Yi, whose arms were simply bandaged, Yu Jin sighed and said,"If this continues, Changshan's army will be able to break through Yanshan in less than three days!"

Qu Yi also sighed and looked up at the darkening sky. He was even more worried:"It's going to be difficult tonight... cough cough……"

"General Qu, why don't I send soldiers to take you back to Fuling." Yu Jin said with concern.

Although there is no fear of wound infection in winter, fighting with injuries will not help. Qu Yi's condition is not good either.

Qu Yi shook his head and said with a wry smile:"If I go back, I'm afraid the Lord will be even more discouraged. With their hearts cold, all the generals and soldiers will become even more desperate!"

Qu Yi made a sneak attack and wanted to win a victory, not only for himself, but also for the soldiers and generals such as Cao Cao in the rear!

Yu Jin did not persuade him again.

They also set up camp on the mountain, even more because Yanshan was Fuling's barrier. They have been prepared for a long time and have complete logistics and other facilities.

However, there is still a slight gap compared to the Changshan Army.

This is not a problem of insufficient preparation.

It is a matter of the Changshan Army's lineup, the material and craftsmanship of the tents, the warm and cold-proof equipment of the soldiers, and diet. , there is a huge gap!

Liu Chen came with the inventions and creations of later generations, which is not comparable to Cao Jun's embarrassing situation! The wind on the mountain is even colder, and as the night darkens, the temperature drops sharply. Fighting in the day Many of the injured soldiers suffered from frostbite after their immunity declined. It was as if they were not wearing any warm clothes. Wind was leaking everywhere, and they felt magical damage. Protection from the cold depended on shaking their bodies.

They were eating hard dry food, and their faces and hands were numb. Their lips were cracked, and the cold weather made their hands and feet inconvenient.

The military morale fell to the bottom with the desperate situation of no way out and the successive defeats during this period.

On the other hand, in the Changshan military tent at the bottom of the mountain, briquettes were burning for warmth. After heating, the soldiers drank high-quality alcohol to keep away the cold, and ate potatoes and sweet potatoes to satisfy their hunger. Changshan Army soldiers had sufficient clothing to keep out the cold. Ordinary soldiers wore cotton-padded jackets, and high-ranking generals all used duck down to keep out the cold. Their hands and faces were protected by creams and lipsticks. To avoid frostbite and cracks, which would weaken the combat effectiveness.

The most important thing is that the morale of the Changshan Army soldiers is high and their mentality is excellent. The comparison between the two is simply a world of difference.

If this vicious cycle continues, there will be no need for the Changshan Army to attack the mountain, but In a few days, Cao's army will collapse on its own, and the deserters will rout!

Naturally, Huang Zhong, Zhang Jia and other generals also noticed this situation. This was all intelligence collected by the reconnaissance pigeons returning from the cruise.

"After getting used to this kind of life, I thought the life of the enemy soldiers was also so beautiful. Sure enough, only our Changshan Army is special."

Huang Zhong learned the information from the animal trainer and understood that the situation of Cao's soldiers was not easy.

"This is why not eat minced meat, right?"

Zhang Jia smiled and joked that they were all old acquaintances, so he didn't care, and then offered advice and said:"In this case, we should take advantage of the enemy's weakness!"

"Night attack!"

The generals had the same idea, and then they laughed knowingly.

Night attack!

The main purpose is not to attack the mountain, but to consume the enemy's energy.

Facing their repeated attacks, Cao's army must have no intention of resting, and will be trembling and worried about gains and losses. At the same time, we are ready to prepare.

Without rest, the condition of the soldiers must be extremely poor. After the physical fitness declines, the ability to withstand the cold becomes worse. Over time, it can range from typhoid and cold to severe illness.

Wait until a certain amount of enemy troops are consumed. After that, it’s time for them to launch a general attack!

As for whether it will affect their own army...

They are the attackers, so they can divide their forces to attack and take turns to rest. The enemy is the defender and they don’t dare to be careless. Naturally, they have to be on alert to avoid appearing. Loopholes.

Not to mention that the physical fitness of their Changshan Army has been increased, and their defense power also includes the ability to withstand cold, recovery, vitality, etc., which makes their physical fitness extremely strong.

Their Changshan Army can afford it!

It only takes a few days for them to lose their strength. , can cause the enemy army to collapse and disintegrate.

Just do it.

Zhang Jia Gao Lan led more than 20,000 troops to attack, and attacked the mountain with great momentum.

This time it really scared Cao Jun. All the soldiers of Cao Jun who were resting did not need to patrol to warn them. , he was immediately awakened.

One by one, they stood ready, armed with weapons, and headed to various defensive positions.

Yu Jin took the lead, commanding and dispatching on the front line.

There was some helplessness in his eyes, and he had already expected that the enemy would use this trick to consume The energy of his own soldiers.

However, even if Yu Jin guessed it, he did not dare to bet that the enemy was just testing the attack and not attacking with all his strength.

If the Changshan Army grasped Yu Jin's mentality and took this opportunity to really attack with all their strength, they would really be The army was defeated like a mountain.

Zhang Jaw and Gao Lan led their troops to attack. It was not just a show at the beginning. They also hoped that they could successfully wait and take the lead. This is a great military achievement.

Of course, Yu Jin is not a weak general, occupying the Due to the favorable geographical location and the impregnable defense, Zhang Jia Gao Lan gave up and focused on harassment.

The battle lasted for more than two hours, and the battle was so virtual and real that Cao Jun did not dare to divide his troops to rest, and was dragged down alive.

After Zhang Jia Gao Lan withdrew his troops , they finally breathed a sigh of relief and sat down one by one, exhausted.

After Cao's army had been in full formation for more than half an hour and no enemy soldiers were seen, they were ready to go back in batches to rest.

However.

An hour later, Chang Shan's army attacked Zang Ba Under the leadership of He Gao Shun, they launched another attack.

This time there were more than 30,000 soldiers, and the momentum was even greater. The frightened soldiers of Cao's army who had just rested woke up from their nightmares.

Another offensive and defensive battle broke out!

More than two dozen After an hour, Chang Shan's army retreated again.

All the officers and soldiers of Cao's army, including the fierce general Yu Jin, fell to the ground exhausted, exhausted. Many of the officers were even exhausted and looked pale with excessive fright. It was dim. Light gradually appeared in the night, and the dawn came, letting the soldiers of Cao's army understand that they had not slept all night and fought all night!

Even if they guessed the conspiracy of Changshan army and gritted their teeth with anger, there was nothing they could do.

At the foot of the mountain.

Changshan The army opened its jaws and went to rest with Gao Lan, Zang Ba and Gao Shun. Huang Zhong commanded the troops and waited until all the soldiers had had enough wine and food before launching an attack again!

Seeing this scene, Yu Jin was so angry that he vomited out a mouthful of blood and wanted to kill him. Teeth clenched. Chang Shanjun was really prepared to exhaust them to death.

With this constant attack day and night, even an iron-clad body cannot withstand this kind of harassment and attack.

Yu Jin looked around. It had only been one night, and all the soldiers looked depressed and exhausted. Military morale fell to rock bottom.

It doesn't take many days at all, just two or three days, and their 100,000-strong garrison in Yanshan will collapse!

While Yu Jin was preparing for the battle, he sent messengers to rush back to report the news, so that the soldiers in Fuling could be mentally prepared.

But with this kind of bad news, Yu Jin could already imagine Cao Cao's disappointed face and the despair of all the soldiers!
