It was already dark today, so the four of them ordered their troops to set up camp. Then send out scouts to monitor the situation within five miles. Finally, the four of them, feeling that they were still unsatisfied, got into Huangfusong's tent and continued to discuss the specific details of the attack on Yangzhai City tomorrow.
On the second day, 40,000 officers and soldiers formed a formation outside Yangzhai City, shouting and shouting. Bocai was furious and took his 30,000 elite troops, plus Peng Tuo's 25,000 main force. In addition to the main force, 30,000 people were selected from the reserve army. A total of 80,000 men and horses, all wearing yellow turbans, lowered the drawbridge, opened the city gate, and rushed out.
It took more than a quarter of an hour for more than 80,000 Yellow Turban soldiers to run out of the city.
When the Yellow Turban Army ran out of the city, He Huan rode up to Huangfu Song and said loudly: "General, the bandit army came out of the city with an irregular formation and low morale. Our cavalry can just cross over and attack. Please give the order. Cao Cao¡¯s cavalry attacks.¡±
Cao Cao and Xiao Yang were beside Huangfu Song. After hearing He Huan's "ingenious plan", they couldn't help but glare at He Huan.
He Huan thought it was because Cao Cao and the others admired his clever plan. After saying this, he deliberately raised his head and stared at the Yellow Turban Army in the distance without looking at Cao Cao and the others.
Cao Cao and Xiao Yang were amused. The forwards of the Yellow Turban Army in the distance were sword and shield soldiers who could defend and attack. Behind the sword and shield soldiers are archers, and next to the archers are spearmen. Moreover, they attacked when they were halfway across the river, but they were no more than four or five miles away, attacking the elite soldiers who came out of the city to fight.
The distance is too far, although the cavalry can rely on the speed of their horses to attack them all at once. But Cao Cao's cavalry numbered only five hundred. Even if we add the five hundred cavalry each under the names of Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, the total is only fifteen hundred.
1,500 cavalrymen went to attack the 40,000 to 50,000 infantrymen who had just left the city, and the infantrymen were still on guard. When your infantry cannot cooperate, you may end up losing a lot of money and lose the life of the cavalry.
How could Huangfu Song, one of the most outstanding military strategists in the late Han Dynasty, not understand this?
" If Huangfu Song was afraid that Cao Cao and Xiao Yang would be suppressed by He Jin, he reminded them last night not to offend He Jin's nephew He Huan by being too negligent. Today Huangfu Song himself has forgotten this. Huangfu Song said angrily: "Captain He, please return to your position. I don't need your teaching here."
In front of Zhu Jun, Cao Cao, Xiao Yang and the Chinese army, Huangfu Song received such harsh words. He Jin couldn't help but be stunned. He stood on the horse in a daze, motionless.
When he was in Luoyang, He Jin personally sent He Huan to Huangfu Song's residence and asked Huangfu Song to teach his nephew well.
Compared with the eunuch Zhang Rang and others, He Jin's calamity, talent, and courage are as high as those in heaven and earth. Huangfu Song thought about it again and again, and believed that if he wanted to check Zhang Rang and others in the court, he must train a capable person among his relatives. Because of this, He Huan had already held half of the master's ceremony in front of Huangfu Song.
After leaving Luoyang, Huangfu Song tried his best to teach He Huan. He Huan is also considered a leader among the children of the He family. However, he is young and energetic, and hates evil as much as he hates it. Whenever I see Cao Cao in the army, and now Xiao Yang, I think I see the domineering Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong. The anger will come out without blowing up, and the fire will become stronger as soon as it emerges. From this, He Huan just wanted to use the hands of the Yellow Turban Army to get rid of Cao Cao and Xiao Yang and then quickly.
I don¡¯t understand why Huangfu Song, who has always been very kind to me in the past two days, changed his attitude so quickly? Twice, twice already, Lord Huangfu lost his face because Zhang let their people. He Huan blushed and stepped back. The look in his puzzled eyes became even more violent.
Huangfu Song sighed slightly in his heart. He originally wanted to talk to He Huan last night, but he was still observing Cao Cao and Xiao Yang. Afraid that He Huan would reveal the secret that he wanted to recruit the two of them for his relatives, Huangfu Song had no choice but to say nothing. But who knew that He Huan was becoming more and more bold? He actually wanted to avenge his private revenge and came up with this unwise plan.
Huangfu Song¡¯s sigh was seen by Xiao Yang and Cao Cao. The two of them had complicated emotions and it was difficult to say anything.
The main force of the Yellow Turban Army is naturally no better than the offline Yellow Turban Army. Even when leaving the city, it was neater and faster. In particular, Bo Cai's five thousand cronies were comparable to the elite officers and soldiers, or even worse.
As soon as the Yellow Turban Army in front left the city, they quickly formed a formation under the leadership of their respective leaders. When the army was halfway out, Bocai ran out on a horse that was covered in coal black and without a single hair. Behind him, a bearded man carried a flag that was one foot and a half long, with a big "wave" character on it fluttering in the wind.
At the back of the team, Peng Tuo, who was filled with hatred after yesterday's defeat, led a group of confidants and rushed out.
Back in the city, Peng Tuo thought about it for half the night, and finally realized that Xiao Yang had been setting a trap for him since he first met him. Causing him to be careless, luring him not to be on guard. After opening his heart,?He struck with thunder.
Peng Tuo, who originally wanted to call the formation, was overtaken by Bo Cai today.
"Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, you two defeated generals dare to come and die today."
Bocai is definitely an outlier among the Yellow Turban Army. Most generals of the Yellow Turban Army have beards and majestic faces. Only Bo Cai looks gentle and quiet, thin and strong. A pair of eyes, sparkling.
What didn¡¯t match his appearance was his thunderous voice. It is not surprising that when he was scolding, he would expose the shortcomings of Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun and use this to undermine the morale of the officers and soldiers.
Within one month, it was hard for anyone to be defeated by Bo Cai twice. Not to mention the famous generals Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun. As for Cao Cao, he was not well-known in the army at this time, and Bo Cai did not even mention his name. As for the junior Xiao Yang, it is estimated that after yesterday's battle, Peng Tuo still hasn't figured out Xiao Yang's name.
Huangfu Song thought for a moment, then turned from anger to joy and said: "Bo Cai, you are rebellious and unethical. You dare to confuse people's hearts and rebel. Although you had a small victory in the past few days, yesterday's battle was a warning sign that you and others will be destroyed." Bo Cai, Peng Tuo, surrender quickly, and I can spare your life. Otherwise"
Before the two armies fight, it is a common knowledge to curse. Successfully yelling and scolding can not only damage the enemy's morale, but also improve the combat effectiveness of your own team.
"Otherwise what? Otherwise you bite my leader's bird." Beside Bo Cai, Guan Hai grasped the sword tightly and cursed fiercely.
"You are so rude, you dare to fight with your grandpa Xiahou?" Xiahou Dun next to Cao Cao looked at Guan Hai and roared.
In January in Yingchuan, although there were only two battles, Xiahou Dun and Guan Hai were really enemies of life and death. How many times have we fought with each other?
"Xiahou Dun, come as soon as you come." Guan Hai was impatient. He patted the horse's head and jumped out. As if they were familiar with the fight between the two, Bo Cai and Cao Cao just looked at the field and let them warm up before talking about anything else.
