Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Cao Cao was full of dissatisfaction with Chen Sheng's repeated misdeeds about him.  ¡ù¡ùThe addition of Chen Sheng made the battle of Xuzhou, which was originally simple, clear and confident, fall into a state of chaos, which made Cao Cao even more unhappy.     what can we do about it?  Cao Cao was thinking in his mind.  From Cao Cao¡¯s own perspective, the current situation is very unfavorable.  Because Cao Cao's military strength is only 50,000 infantry and cavalry, Liu Bei's 5,000 elite soldiers, and Guangling Chen Deng's 5,000 elite soldiers.  Cao Cao's side has a total of 60,000 troops.  " On Chen Sheng's side, Yuan Shu had 20,000 troops, Chen Sheng had 9,000 infantry and cavalry, Zang Ba had 4,000 elite troops, and Lu Bu had 20,000 elite infantry and cavalry troops.  The strength of Chen Sheng's side is 53,000.  Among them, on Chen Sheng's side, although Lu Bu's soldiers were brave, they were discouraged because they were defeated by Cao Cao many times.  As for Yuan Shu's elite troops, they had just been built and had average combat effectiveness.  Comparatively speaking, no matter how many troops Cao Cao has, their level of eliteness is far greater than that of Chen Sheng.  But in fact, it was Cao Cao who was at a disadvantage.  First of all, the news of Chen Sheng's rescue will definitely reach Pengcheng, which will greatly boost the momentum of Lu Bu's army, and the lost courage may be replenished.  In addition, Lu Bu is on the defensive side and has a huge city to rely on, which is a huge advantage.  According to the two-to-one casualty ratio between attacking and defending the city, Lu Bu's strength can be regarded as 40,000.  Therefore, Cao Jun's entire force did not have much advantage.  Finally, the war has progressed to this point, and Chen Sheng's side has a great advantage in layout.  First of all, Cao Cao's military deployment, Liu Bei, Cao Cao's own 55,000 troops besieged Pengcheng, and Chen Deng sent 5,000 elite troops to guard the Huaihe River.  Liu Bei.  Cao Cao's military advantage is huge, and it can be said to be more than enough against Lu Bu in Pengcheng.  But it seems impossible to invade Pengcheng in the short term.  But Chen Sheng and Yuan Shu had 29,000 troops. This batch of troops was enough to swallow up the entire Chen Deng.  Using the big to eat the small means destroying the enemy and strengthening oneself.  If Chen Deng fails, Cao Cao will lose some of his troops.  In addition, there was the Taishan bandit Zang Ba who led his troops to attack Cao Cao's grain road on Chen Sheng's order.  Even though Zang Ba¡¯s troops are sparse, he can still defend himself by finding ways.  But I got news every now and then.  It was said that Zang Ba attacked the rear, which was such a demoralizing thing.  Anyway, generally speaking, Cao Cao currently has a lot of troops and generals that can be used.  But it happens to have a disadvantage.  After thinking for a long time, Cao Cao sighed solemnly.  Said: "I am already at a disadvantage. If I lose Chen Deng, it will be even more disadvantageous. Therefore, the top priority is to rescue Chen Deng." After listening to Cao Cao's order, Xun You and Cheng Yu did not speak, because they all knew  There is nothing wrong with this decision.  Now Chen Deng is the key.  "It's a thousand miles to the Huaihe River, but Chen Sheng has a large number of troops, Chen Deng is outnumbered, and it takes a lot of time to get here quickly. The time for rescue is no longer enough. We have to get there quickly. The general recommends, Tiger and Leopard Cavalry  Go on an expedition." Cao Ren had no objection to this, but he also recommended his own candidates.  Tiger and leopard riding.  "Tiger and Leopard Cavalry." These three words changed the atmosphere in the Chinese army's tent.  The generals looked excited again.  "Hubao Cavalry, okay. As long as we send this cavalry out, we can not only rescue Chen Yuanlong. As long as Chen Sheng dares to take a step out of the Huaihe River, we will annihilate him." "Hubao Cavalry? In this way, Chen Sheng has nothing to worry about.  "Hahaha, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are going out. Chen Sheng is only good at defense, but not good at attacking. In the wilderness, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry is invincible. If Chen Sheng doesn't have a city, he will definitely die." The generals expressed their feelings.  Excited, he said loudly.  But the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are really powerful. This cavalry was already established when Cao Cao started his army.  But at that time, the scale was very small, with only 300 people, and it was not as famous as it is now.  But as Cao Cao grew, this cavalry also began to stand out, and its number reached 6,000.  Conquer Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shu, and Lu Bu, and circle the Central Plains.  This cavalry made great achievements and eventually became an elite cavalry that shocked the whole world.  Cao Cao also spared no effort in cultivating this cavalry. Not only did he give the best treatment, but the soldiers were also selected from hundreds of generals.  It can be said that the configuration and personnel composition of this cavalry are already the best in the world.  It is the most outstanding cavalry of this era, bar none. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ??In the wilderness, whether it is a frontal battle, a sneak attack, or a night attack, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are invincible.  But because of this, the generals have unparalleled confidence in the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. Now after hearing Cao Ren's words, they were naturally shocked and inspired.  "Tiger and leopard cavalry." Cao Cao pondered for a moment after hearing this. This cavalry Cao Cao actually has a use, that is, to guard against Lu Bu's Bingzhou cavalry.  The cavalry needs cavalry to restrain them. In addition, it also prevents Lu Bu from leading the Bingzhou cavalry to break through and escape.  But now it seems that Lu Bu is no longer the most important thing. The threat from Chen Sheng is the most important thing.  After careful consideration, Cao Cao looked up at Xun You and Cheng Yu.  "Yeah." Xun You saw Cao Cao's eyes and nodded without hesitation.  "It's feasible." Cheng Yu said.  Having made his own decision, coupled with the affirmation of his advisers, Cao Cao also made up his mind.  "Okay, let's send the tigers and leopards south to fight against Chen Sheng." Cao Cao said.  "Zihe." After taking the case, Cao Cao turned to look at the generals, found a general among the seats, and said.  "The general is here." The general saluted.  He has a slender figure, fair and clean body, and exudes a delicate and delicate aura.  It seems that a Confucian scholar put on armor by mistake and sat here.  However, it would be a big mistake to underestimate this general.  The reason why the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry is what it is today is inseparable from the ability of this general.  Because this general is the commander-in-chief of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, Cao Chun, General Cao, one of Cao Cao's Xiahou clan and Cao clan's generals.  "Immediately lead your six thousand tiger and leopard cavalry and go south to support Chen Deng. Chen Sheng must be blocked on the south bank of the Huaihe River. If Chen Sheng does not know the current situation, kill him immediately." Cao Cao shouted angrily.  "Promise." Cao Chun agreed.  "As soon as General Cao Chun goes out, Chen Sheng will definitely die without a burial place." Seeing that Cao Chun was about to leave, the generals laughed one after another.  "Hahahaha." Suddenly, the entire Cao Jun tent was filled with joy.
