Chapter 3341 Generals
Xu Chu's location was about ten miles away from the Cao army camp, and there were not many people around him at the beginning. However, after Xu Chu raised the three-color battle flag on Gaogang, there were many scattered hussar cavalry roaring again, returning to the three-color flag!
Flag lift!
People gather together!
Seeing such a scene, the personal guards beside him were cheering each other, dancing with excitement, and breathing a sigh of relief!
Even Xu Chu's hand holding the sword couldn't help but tremble slightly, and his knuckles turned white!
Ask me how many troops can do this in the world?!
If the cavalry flag is there, the military spirit is there!
For a moment, Xu Chu also wanted to shout loudly and celebrate with these guards that they were in such an army and under such a battle flag!
Xu Chu nodded slightly at the return soldiers, and then turned his gaze to Cao's army.
That maid raises it!
Someone hasn't lost yet!
Seeing that the soldiers and horses began to gather under Gao Gang, the heavy pressure in Xu Chuduidi in his heart disappeared a little!
But that's not enough!
Shame must be cleaned with blood!
It's either the enemy, it's your own!
Xu Chu controlled his fluctuating emotions, straightened his body, and patrolled the battlefield. Although he gave up the command of the cavalry, he was still the leader of the former army. There were Cao's soldiers rushing out in front of him, such a huge Anyi camp, and such a key battle waiting for him!
His own troops were still gathering, while the Li Li flag on the front line was still looming in the dust.
After suffering a loss, how can we recover from the situation now?
...
...
When Xu Chu re-opened the three-color battle flag and the general's surname flag, Cao Hong was staring at the map in Hedong.
The area in Guanzhong is already a large-scale implementation of sand tables and standardized maps, but this matter is still very difficult in Shandong.
It’s not that you don’t understand the new model, but changing the old model will cost the interests of many people, so these people will try their best to prevent the emergence of new things and try every means to pick some bones on new things.
The key is that Cao Cao, Cao Hong, and the people from the Xiahou clan of Cao, do not know how to draw. They can only make these drawings through their subordinates and their subordinates. In this process, a little confusion and deviation will turn into what Cao Hong is seeing now.
Logically speaking, as the main commander of the Anyi Battle, Cao Hong got the most exquisite and detailed map carriage, and it was not bad at all. But in fact, it is a pity that the map carriage in front of Cao Hong can still be described as simple or even simple.
That's right, Cao Hong is the commander, not Cao Cao.
But the map in front of Cao Hong is still a headache.
There is no detailed terrain on the map carriage that is five or six feet square, and there are only simple outlines and some text symbols.
The painting looks like a ingot-shaped "mountain", of course, it represents the soil slopes, hills, high mountains and dangerous peaks. What is the specific difference? Perhaps it is the size of the "mountain" ingot?
"Sichuan" represents a river.
Large square frames and small square frames represent big cities, while small squares represent small cities.
Large circles and small circles represent large camps, and small circles represent small camps or military camps.
In the middle position, there is naturally Anyi City with a large square frame with a small square frame, and on the side is the Cao army camp. Several ink lines with completely uneven thickness outline the connection between each other, but no one knows whether they can follow the direction of the ink lines.
There are some small black dots on the edges of the lines. If you are not careful, you may even think that it is ink accidentally dripping from the map. But in fact, it is a sentry set up to protect the passage...
The entire map has neither terrain marks nor names and locations of each earthen plateau. As for military dynamics such as the march route, tactical goals, maneuvering directions, enemy-to-wealth situations, they can't even see a shadow.
However, Cao Hong was very focused on such a simple map.
He must concentrate because Cao Hong needs to correspond to the plateaus and gullies in his mind one by one with the brief signs on the map and form a whole three-dimensional map battlefield map. From this perspective, if he wants to travel through time and become an ancient general, and then command thousands of troops as soon as he goes on the field, he is basically dreaming.
A footstep was heard quickly, "General! General Bao's troops were still slow! He could not intercept the troops of the cavalry branch!"
『Hmph!』 Cao Hong nodded,『As expected, just keep staring at it!』
"Yi!" The footsteps were gone again.
Cao Hong's confidant stood on one side and asked in a low voice: "General... this Bao Shuyi..."
Cao Hong snorted coldly, "It's more than just Bao Shuyi!"
"Ah?" The confidant reacted and was shocked.
Cao Hong's eyes were still above Tuyu, without even raising his head, "Thinking about when we fought with Yuan Benchu back then... Now it's just a recurrence of the old thing!"
"These people really deserve to be killed!" said his confidant angrily.
『There are endless...』 Cao Hong shook his head, 『What's more, it's hard to say whether these people are enemies or friends before they really do anything... To be honest, I also want to give these guys directly to that person... to save you from being upset...
My confidant was stunned for a moment, then lowered his voice, "Master...that's what it means..."
Cao Hong raised his head and glanced at his confidant.
My confidant suddenly closed his mouth, shrank his head, straightened his chest and belly, as if he was not the one who spoke just now.
Cao Hong snorted coldly, "Get out and see how many catapults have been repaired! Also, the boards at the entrance of the camp can be all... Well, just leave one!"
The confidant quickly answered and then went down happily.
Cao Hong focused his attention again on the map.
On the battlefield, anyone can think that the other party is an idiot and he is the most awesome, but in fact, who is an idiot and who is awesome can only be seen when the dust settles.
...
...
The sun is like a huge fireball, hanging quietly in the sky, embracing the earth passionately with its hot flames. There is no cloud in the sky.
Everything on the earth moaned painfully in the steaming heat wave.
Xu Chu stood under the three-colored flag.
He looks like the point now, but it is not.
The focus became the command of the former cavalry, Li Li.
This counterattack was dominated by Li Li, and Xu Chu placed himself in the auxiliary position.
As for getting rid of humbleness...
It is still somewhat unable to get rid of the characteristics of the nomadic Hu people and go against the wind and waves.
After this battle, we must take this opportunity to dismantle the primitive military bodies formed by the Southern Xiongnu tribes, break up and divide them into various Han army formations!
This is also a "historical issue".
The Hu people broke up and merged them, and it was only after they arrived at the Western Regions of Longxi. So they were first promoted among the Qiang people, but because the Southern Huns surrendered earlier, they did not make much changes. Therefore, although the Debei tribe was considered the Cavalry Army, many of them were Southern Huns.
The current battlefield situation also shows that the old "submission army" system, or the "adapted army" model, cannot be compared with the regular cavalry system.
If you want to annihilate a cavalry in field battles, you can only dispatch cavalry.
Hu Ren is very good at riding, but his tenacity and adaptability are obviously insufficient, so he needs to adjust and supplement. Before, because the rules that cannot be punished are on the side, it is difficult to deal with the low-level branch...
However, before dealing with the resignation of the Ministry of Being, Xu Chu thought that he would make a review first and gave the cavalry a letter to express his apology and demotion.
This is the rule.
If you have merits, you will be rewarded, and if you have any mistakes, you will be punished!
Simple?
But many people, many institutions, and many countries cannot do well.
This was originally a simple rule, but unfortunately, someone would always turn this public rule into a personal rule.
Xu Chu himself must abide by the rules before he can make other people obey the rules.
Xu Chu was not worried about his punishment. He was now more concerned about whether the Cao army would send cavalry to chase him!
Although there are earthen plateaus and gullies here, it is very suitable for cavalry Mercedes-Benz and raids.
If he could take advantage of his defeat to lure the cavalry of Cao's army out and encircle and annihilate him, then his previous losses and casualties of the cavalry and the horse will have higher value.
But Xu Chu was soon disappointed...
The scouts who stayed behind found Xu Chu and reported that although the Cao army sent a considerable number of soldiers to pursue him, there were not many cavalry.
This is a very easy to distinguish on the terrain of the Loess Plateau.
The smoke and dust formed by infantry are low and flat, while the smoke and dust brought out by cavalry are like long dragons, towering into the clouds.
Even if there are cavalry and infantry mixed together, experienced scouts can tell from clues.
Xu Chu frowned.
The news of the enemy's dispatch was not beyond Xu Chu's expectations, but Xu Chu was a little confused about the distribution of Cao Hong's soldiers.
What is Cao Hong doing?
To be continued...
