Chapter 331 [Wargaming]
(Thank you for the Alliance! Thank you Zhao Wuxiu for the rice dumplings of 2014, s0514024. To be honest, I really ate rice dumplings. With Xie Guanghui's charter, you are not me, listen quietly to the blossoming and falling of flowers, Timilren's Eagle, Purple Shadow Moon Soul, Zuoqiu Khanru, Peterlin. I didn't expect that I could receive so many monthly tickets during this period, unexpectedly, surprises!)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The first thing to do is to deploy troops in the military chess, that is, to arrange the troops before the start according to the actual distribution of troops and horses between Yuan and Cao at this time.
In this regard, compared with history, Cao Cao actually had an advantage - his territory was smaller, but his defensive pressure was greatly reduced, and he could draw more troops to fight north. This can be seen from Cao Cao's subordinates in all directions.
Let’s talk about the east first. In history, Cao Cao surrendered Zang Ba, Sun Guan and other Taishan forces. This army resisted Yuan Tan in Qingzhou for him. In this time and space, Zang Ba had no relationship with Cao Cao, but there was a person more powerful than Zang Ba who suppressed Yuan Tan for Cao Cao, making it impossible for him to look south - Taishi Ci.
Of course, Taishici would not take the initiative, but Yuan Tan did not dare to take this risk. The Beihai Battle was defeated too badly and his memory was still fresh. In any case, he did not dare to give the leopard behind Taishici, and go south to assist.
In the southeast, Yuan Shao had already joined forces with Sun Ce to attack Cao Cao, but because Sun Ce was assassinated, the joint attack was left unresolved. In this time and space, Sun Ce had not yet become a climate, and Yuan Shu was not dead yet, so he could not join forces at all.
On the south side, Liu Biao was like in history, and lacked interest in the battle between Yuan and Cao. Moreover, because Cao Cao did not conquer Wancheng, the relationship between Liu Biao and Cao Cao was far less severe than that in history, so it was even more impossible to drag Cao Cao down.
In addition, in the Battle of Guandu in history, Liu Bei stood on Yuan Shao's side, but this time, Liu Bei belonged to Cao Cao's side.
The most important point is that Cao Cao's rear was the Marhan Yuzhou forces. As the two sides reached a secret agreement, Cao Cao was able to almost completely withdraw defense and gathered a large number of generals and troops originally used to defend the east and south in Chenliu to focus on dealing with Yuan Shao.
On the other hand, Yuan Shao had to take out at least 10,000 troops and patrol the river with Hanoi troops. In name, it was to prevent Cao's army from attacking, but in fact it was to prevent horses!
In this way, Cao Cao's advantages are more obvious as one rises and the other falls.
From a comprehensive perspective, Cao Cao, who is in this time and space, is the so-called loss of the east corner and the harvest of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of the muddle of
After the two sides made a plan, it was naturally the start of "Yuan Shao". The start of Ma Han was very simple, and he left Yecheng and stationed Liyang. Then he rode two sons in one step, crossed the Yellow River, placed it in the position of a white horse, and inserted a triangular small flag marked 5,000 on the head of the clay man infantry, and then picked out a flag marked with the character "Yan" from the flag and inserted it on the small tube with the collar collar of the clay man.
Xun You smiled and said, "The lord started with Yan Liang. It's just a matter of course."
Ma Han shook his head: "It's not that I'm Yan Liang, but that Yuan Shao will definitely be Yan Liang."
All the generals were strange. Ma Chao asked directly, but Ma Han smiled but said nothing. He really couldn't explain. This was the most beautiful battle in the Battle of Guandu. Even though he was not familiar with the history of the Three Kingdoms, few people didn't know this part.
The White Horse was stationed at this time with a 2,000 infantryman. The defender was Liu Yan, the prefect of Dongjun. Five thousand Yuan troops fought against two thousand Cao troops, and there were 500 cavalry among them. The attacking side was Yan Liang, who had become famous for his recent attack on Hanoi. Whether on the chessboard or in actual combat, Liu Yan could not resist it.
Xun You showed his eyes to Jin and said, "You two think, will Cao Gong rescue him?"
Yu Jin nodded without thinking, Man Chong became even more straightforward, and directly reached out to pick up the two clay figures, pushed forward, and inserted two flags, namely the "Three Thousand" representing the troops and the "Xiahou" representing the main general. At present, there is only one Xiahou in Cao's camp - Xiahou Yuan, the prefect of Chenliu.
Xun You smiled and shook his head slightly, adding two more schools, namely Liu Bei and Cao Ang. In this way, the troops reached 5,000, plus Liu Yan and 2,000, which exceeded Yan Liang.
Next, Xun You rushed to Yanjin with Cao Ang's army and attacked the white horse with Liu Bei's army.
At this time, due to the movement distance, Ma Han was no longer able to use the troops in Yecheng, so he could only divide Yan Liang's troops to block Cao Ang, and at the same time he used his main force to fight against Liu Bei. After a few rounds, he was finally able to retreat to Hebei with the reinforcements of Li Yang and Jiang Qi, and his offensive momentum was suppressed.
Xun You started with a victory.
The Ma Han attack case praised: "The public is good at evading the real and attacking the virtual, lure the enemy into division of troops, gather and annihilate them."
The generals also nodded in praise, and everyone understood that this was a war chess after all, and their steps were vivid in their minds. If Yuan Shao's side might not have time to react and rescue in actual combat, Yan Liang would probably be eaten by Liu Bei and Liu Yan.
Ma Han didn't know that in history, Xun You made this beautiful white horse annihilation battle that Xun You offered Cao Cao this plan.
Next, Guo Jia replaced Ma Han and fought against Xun You. While walking chess, the two asked the generals of each side about the characteristics of infantry and cavalry, how to cooperate, and the route of transportation of baggage.
During the fierce "fight", the Xiahou Yuan army commanded by Xu Huang raided the Yuan army's transportation route and "burned" a large amount of food and grass; Chen Dao also cut off a transportation route of Cao's army; Ma Chao used cavalry, Le Zheng's generals, and successively pulled out white horses, Puyang, annihilated many Cao's troops, and finally approached Guandu.
Guo Jia commanded his superior forces and confronted Xun You, and fought a war of attrition.
The entire battle situation was exciting, and when the generals looked at it, it seemed like a narrowing war was present in front of them, and they were all very excited. After a war game, even the generals who had no strategic concepts, such as Zhou Cang, Wu Zhui, and Han Xi, had the overall trend of the future battle between Yuan and Cao. It can be said that if they came on the stage, their grasp of the trends of Yuan's army and their tactics were not worse than those of famous generals such as Xiahou Yuan, Cao Hong, and Liu Bei.
Three months after Jia Xu moved the roulette representing the date, Xun You tried all the tricks and was cracked by Guo Jia. Although the Yuan army represented by Guo Jia also suffered a lot of losses, he eventually surrounded "Cao Cao" in Chenliu with his absolute superior force.
At this point, there seems to be no suspense in the war.
Guo Jia let out a long sigh, threw a small flag in his hand, and smiled and said, "Brother Gongda. Don't fight again, right?"
Xun You rubbed his eyebrows, held a chess piece tightly in his hand, and wanted to hit it several times, but finally gave up. Finally, he sighed: "Okay. This game is a reconciliation."
What? Calculate the sum?
Ma Chao almost jumped up, and his troops were all at the city. Is this a good deal?
Pang De laughed and said, "When the war reaches this point, Cao Gong is indeed able to seek peace. Mr. Gongda has really been deeply involved."
Only Guo Jia's eyes flashed and he frowned slightly and said, "Does Gong Da still have a backup plan? Isn't it time to use it yet?"
Xun You smiled and slowly spread his hands that had been tightly clenched, but he saw a red clay man who was neither white nor black in the palm of his hand. The clay man was a cavalry, and the small flag on his back was marked with the word "Dragon Wolf".
Now even Ma Chao kept his mouth shut, and everyone present turned their eyes to their lord, Ma Han.
Ma Han smiled at the arbitrator Jia Xu: "What do you think sir?"
Jia Xu vomited slightly with thin lips: "Harmony."
That's right, Xun You held an ace in his hand, but he did not have a specific number of troops, nor the number of infantry and cavalry, and he didn't even know where to attack. Even if he was a Ma Han, he still didn't know how to play this move. But it is undeniable that this is a force that can reverse the entire battle situation.
If you attract but do not fire, you will roar and gather wind and thunder. Once you attack, you will turn the whole situation around.
So, only count the sum.
...
At the end of February of the third year of Jian'an, the spring was chilly and the river was thundering.
The first thunder was Chen Lin's "Edict on Yanzhou" by Jizhou, who was engaged in Chen Lin's "Edict on Yanzhou" and scolded Cao Cao, who was in a predecessor, and of course, because this time and space have changed too much, even the name of the manifesto was changed (the original text is "Edict on Yuzhou"). Cao Cao's crimes are naturally very different. However, as the saying goes, there is no retribution for the crime. Cao Cao has been in trouble in the world for many years, and he has long wanted to find a crime to catch a lot of crimes.
Finally, the reward has also changed. "The one who has the title of the head of the army is granted a thousand-hunhou Marquis and a reward of tens of millions of yuan. The subordinate generals and officials of the army have surrendered, so don't ask about it..." In history, Cao Cao's reward of "5,000-hunhou Marquis and a reward of 50 million yuan" has lost its price in time and space. This is not surprising, because Cao Cao's own identity has also been reduced, and now he is just a governor of Yanzhou, not a central boss.
The second thunder was that Yuan Shao sent 80,000 troops, claiming to be 300,000. He attacked from Yecheng and vowed to destroy Cao, officially kicking off the Battle of Guandu.
The third thunder sound was the pioneer general Yan Liang, who led 5,000 troops from Yanjin to cross the Yellow River, surrounded the white horse, and shot out the first arrow of the Battle of Guandu.
Yuan's army was coming in full force, and Cao's army was shocked from top to bottom, and there was panic.
In view of this, in early March, Xun Yu offered Cao Cao a proposal, saying "Four Victories and Four Defeats".
At this moment, Ma Han was holding Xun Yu's "Four Victories and Four Defeats Theory".
"...Shao's appearance is lenient on the outside but timid on the inside, and he is wise and unrestrained, but only his talent is suitable. This is the victory. Shao Chi is serious and has little decisions, and he loses his chances. He can make a decision and fails to respond to changes. This is the victory. Shao's imperial army is lenient and slow, and the laws are not established. Although there are many soldiers, it is actually difficult to use. When the laws are clear, rewards and punishments must be carried out. Although the soldiers are few, they all fight to kill. This is the victory of martial arts. Shao relies on the world's talent, calmly pretends to be wise and gains reputation. Therefore, the few scholars who are interested in asking are often given. The public is very kind to treat others, and he is sincere and not to be beautiful, and he is cautious and frugal, and has no stinginess with those who have made contributions. Therefore, all loyal and righteous people in the world are willing to use it. This is the victory of virtue..."
This strategy, no matter how you look at this article, it seems that you are afraid that Cao Cao will admit defeat in front of Yuan Shao's army, and cheer him up: "Lord, you are so wise! You see how good your behavior is, you deserve to be famous for your reputation; Yuan Shao is not good, and he is no match for you, that is a scum..." The whole article analyzes the personalities of both sides, without any specific combat, nor any strategy or tactics, which is a bit of a talk from the Jin Dynasty later.
No one is perfect, and advantages and disadvantages coexist, which is a common truth. In these four victories and four losses, Xun Yu used a microscope to look at Cao Cao's advantages and magnifying glass to find Yuan Shao's shortcomings. If Yuan Shao was really so unbearable, then how bad would all the opponents he defeated, such as Gongsun Zan, Han Fu, and others?
Ma Han General Ce Lun handed him to his subordinates: "What do you think?"
Jia Xu and Guo Jia both praised him for being good, but Xun You, who did not know whether to avoid suspicion or to think that his uncle's argument was too empty, lacked specific and feasible content, did not say anything.
Ma Han didn't know that Jia Xu and Guo Jia in history have proposed similar "win and defeat theory", and the contents are similar, so he just shook his head: "I don't want you to mention such victory and defeat theory to me. If you have to mention it, you have to mention such..."
Ma Han smiled and said, "The army starts a war and wins good luck, but don't say defeat. I will give Cao Gong four victories: take the initiative and cross the river to attack Yuan, this is the victory of momentum; fight against tit and destroy the enemy's attack, this is the victory of qi; cut off the enemy's food route and prevent the enemy's conquering, this is the victory of victory; be careful of urgent and endure, and you will be able to win."
The word "must win" of the horse general is very serious. Jia Xu, Guo Jia and Xun You all know that their intentions are pointed, and they all laughed with heart.
Five days later, Cao Cao got the "Four Victory Theory" from Ma Han. After reading it, he directly called the record room: "Copy ten copies and distribute them to the leader of the lieutenant or above."
