The remaining training party

Fa He summarized his experience, and then obtained some of their military training experience from Cao Ren and Xiahou Dun. He also reorganized the resources at his disposal through various relationships, and then began to form the army.

On the whole, this thousand-man Guards Cavalry inherited the characteristics of the Black Armor Cavalry built by Cao Chun for Xujiabao, but its personnel composition was obviously more complicated than that of Xujiabao - except for Xu Ding.

Zeng brought from Xujiapu

After the private soldiers belonging to Xujiabao and the Jianghu rangers attached to Xujiabao, as well as various experts selected from other grassroots units of Cao Cao's army, and the introduction of Cao Ren and Xiahou Dun, they defected and came from an "innocent" family background.

"The Ranger."

The ingredients are so complex that it is naturally not easy to manage.

It's a pity that Xu Ding doesn't have the talent of his younger brother Xu Chu, nor does he have Cao Chun's outstanding skills and the golden signature of the Cao family, so he has been very tired in the past few years, both physically and mentally. If not

Cao Cao gave him absolute support, and Xu Ding felt that he would either choose to live in seclusion or use three feet of white silk to keep his body intact.

But now, at least it seems that this army still has terrifying power. In several battles with low intensity, it has also shown that it is far stronger than Xujiabao's black armor cavalry. As long as it passes through a high-intensity battle,

The test of war will lead to the final and most fundamental transformation, and by that time, Xu Ding feels that he may have become famous.

Compared to Cao Cao's black armor cavalry, which is a mixture of the Tiger Leopard Cavalry and the Tiger Guard from another dimension, the other ace unit in Cao Cao's hands sounds much more reliable - I don't know.

Was it because Li Shushi personally went to Puyang to stimulate him, or was it because Yuan Shao thought that the battle against Gongsun Zan seemed to have reached its final stage?

Moreover, Gongsun Zan could no longer come up with any tricks, so he could adjust his troops and support his good friends. No matter what the reason was, the support troops sent by Yuan Shao were temporarily replaced by the most elite troops he had.

A unit - the powerful land warriors from Youzhou who returned from the northwest battlefield and then moved across Jizhou and Youzhou, the Euphorbia warriors.

Although because of the existence of the butterfly Li Shushi, without Qu Yi, there would naturally be no Xiandenshi soldiers who were familiar with Qiang fighting and were good at bows and crossbows. Yuan Shaojun was most famous for his Euphorbia soldiers. In the powerful Han Dynasty,

Under the leadership of the old general, they came to support Cao Cao.

Old General Han was naturally one of Cao Cao's trump cards when he asked for support against Sun Ce. Although the Euphorbia was also somewhat beyond Cao Cao's expectations, it did not prevent the black-skinned dwarf from taking the command in his hands unceremoniously.

Yuan Shao probably had given instructions before, but these three thousand Euphorbia soldiers showed no resistance. The handover was very smooth.

As for the remaining 6,000, they are probably Yuan Shao's new recruits and the nearly 1,000-strong cavalry unit that does not seem to be very elite. They are given to Li Dian, Zhu Ling, Shi Huan, and Yan Ming and Lu Kuang of Yuan Shao's army.

Lu Xiang and others took the lead.

Several generals of Yuan Shao's army were cavalry commanders, and they seemed unwilling to let Cao Cao's army get involved in this cavalry unit. Perhaps Yuan Shao had made up his mind to use this war to sharpen his cavalry and the generals who commanded the cavalry.

Coupled with the mixed force of 5,000 light infantry and archers commanded by Xia Houlian and Yang Qun from Liu Beifang, Cao Cao's right wing was stronger than the left wing in terms of the number of soldiers alone, and the 3,000 euphorbia soldiers alone were more powerful than the left wing.

In terms of reputation, it surpasses the coalition forces of Cao and Yuan. In addition, Xu Ding spent all his efforts to build the black armor cavalry. At least in theory, Cao Cao's right wing also has a strong offensive power.

In addition, Cao Cao also left two thousand soldiers as a reserve force in the base camp. The person leading this force was one of the most relied-upon counselors around Cao Cao. The genius who was recommended to Cao Cao by Xun Yu - Xi Chou Xi Zhicai

.

Although it is said to be a reserve force, in fact, this force is also reserved by Cao Cao, because the core of this force is not the generals, but the civilian officials in Cao Cao's camp - including the Taoist priests commanded by Xi Chou.

Man Dou Man Boning and Mao Jie Mao Xiaoxian

The Feng Shui warriors he commanded, as well as Cao Cao's younger brother Cao De, who also wore sackcloth and filial piety and wore plain white, and the strategist troop led by Liang Mao, the prefect of Mount Tai. Although these civil servants were not large in number, if they were allowed to exert their power, they would be powerful.

The most difficult group of people.

The total strength of Cao Cao's side is about 33,000, which is slightly more than that of Yuan Shu's army on the opposite side. However, considering the unstable factor of Sun Ce, Cao Cao's side will never dare to be careless. After all, they have suffered too many losses.

too much.

It is also worth mentioning that no matter whether it is Cao Cao's army in Li Shushi's direction or Cao Cao's army in this direction, the names of the former Chenliu prefect Zhang Miao and his subordinates cannot be found in any battle sequence.

There have been rumors that Yuan Shao was very dissatisfied with Zhang Miao for fleeing without a fight, and even wrote to Cao Cao many times asking Cao Cao to kill Zhang Miao to improve the morale of the army.

Although Cao Cao was also very disdainful of Zhang Miao's pustules, considering the relationship between the two people, he seemed to have no intention of taking action, but he also excluded Zhang Miao from the battle order of Cao Cao's army, and even Zhang Miao

Miao's confidant Zhao Chong was also just given an idle position and stayed in Puyang doing nothing.

Even if Zhang Miao felt worried because of this, it wouldn't be an unusual thing.

After the two armies were arrayed, Cao Cao could climb a mountain and have a look, and Zhou Yu could also temporarily climb to the tower of Sheqiu City to look at the enemy formation. Although he could not accurately grasp the enemy's movements, he could basically have an idea of ​​most of the enemy's arrangements.

General grasp.

What I have to say is that Cao Cao and Zhou Yu are somewhat in tune with each other and have similar views on heroes. Although Zhou Yu displayed three armies on the left, center and right, while Cao Cao only displayed two armies on the left and right, in general comparison, both sides have different views.

The right wing is slightly stronger than the left wing, but the only difference is that Cao Cao actually placed his attack direction on the slightly weaker left wing, while Zhou Yu placed his attack completely on the right wing. And this will also determine this.

The battle on the other side will be extremely brutal.

Zhou Yu's move was somewhat helpless, because in such an open terrain, Cao Cao's army, which had better cavalry in terms of quantity and quality, obviously had an advantage, which forced him to adopt a "bet on one side" method of arranging troops.

Set up the formation.

And what about Cao Cao, on the other hand? He could have played a two-wing attack, even if his left wing was slightly weaker, but in such hilly and plain terrain, the infantry and cavalry were almost at odds with each other.

Therefore, the key to this battle is how Cao Cao's army can limit Sun Ce's performance, and how Yuan Shu's army can use Sun Ce more effectively while resisting the surprise attack of Cao Cao's powerful cavalry troops. (To be continued, please search Gone with the Wind.
