Chapter 591 Liangzhou Army decisive battle in Jiangxia (18)
In that way, the gap between the other side and the ones is getting smaller and smaller, and in the end, they even have fewer casualties and more casualties, that is really, that we will follow the footsteps of the Jiangdong Army. Although Xiahou Yuan is yes, he also thinks that he is stronger than the Jiangdong Army, but when facing such a strong enemy, he is not so confident, which is not wrong at all. So this is true. Xiahou Yuan dares not be arrogant in front of a strong enemy, which is certain. After all, the other side is the strongest army today, even though he doesn't know how to speak.
It is easy to admit it, but Xiahou Yuan still thought so in his heart. This must be. After all, no matter how much it is, it is true that it is hostile, but he still recognizes the Liangzhou Army from the bottom of his heart. Anyway, he is very strong and has been dealing with for many years. It is true. It is true that they know each other very well, and they are not wrong at all. Just like others understand themselves, they are also very good at it.
I know their Liangzhou army, and this is really. They are all old drivers. That's right. Xiahou Yuan didn't know what he said, otherwise he would have thought so. Indeed, when Ma Chao said that, he really thought so, he was all old drivers. It's really not only familiar with their Yanzhou army, but also knows a lot about each other. He knows roughly what the other party is.
Just like that, another night passed, and both sides did not have any actions. In fact, it was normal to think about it. Both sides had some concerns about each other, so they would definitely not come out so easily, so this is the same. Now the two sides are in a confrontation, and together with more than 100,000 troops, it is indeed not appropriate to have a night attack or something. In that case, there is no need to have any problems. Both sides must have thought of it. After all, there is a gap in the number of troops on both sides, but there is not much difference in the end.
This is the fundamental. If the gap is particularly large, then you really have to be careful of each other. Yes, this does not mean that if you have fewer people, you have to be careful of those with many people. It doesn’t matter, it’s just that the party with many people. In fact, you also have to be careful of those with fewer people. After all, do you know if the other party has the courage to burn the boat? If you really want to do it, the other party may not be able to gain a big advantage.
But one side may not have had small casualties, and maybe it will be a big deal. That's not a difficult thing, really. Therefore, that situation is indeed the same, but isn't it still the same now, or it has never been like that, so... Therefore, the Liangzhou Army and the Yanzhou Army are not like that now. At least for Jiang Xia, they probably won't basically go to that point.
This is really not that level. The key is that the two armies don’t easily do that. This is the fundamental reason. After all, the Liangzhou army was led by Ma Chao himself, and although the Yanzhou army was not Cao Cao, it was also led by Xiahou Yuan. In fact, if Cao Cao had no problem, he could come here himself. After all, Ma Chao and Sun Ce came here in Jiangxia, which was not his own. Speaking of which, Cao Cao absolutely did not think he was worse than them, so this was certain. Of course, the two of them were younger than him.
I definitely admit it, the facts, so... Cao Cao felt that his martial arts skills were not as good as the two, so this must be. After all, Ma Chao and Sun Ce were both long-time generals on the battlefield and had first-class martial arts, but Cao Cao was still not, which was good. As for other aspects, Cao Cao was not convinced. He didn't think he would surpass Ma Chao and Sun Ce, but he definitely didn't.
It will be bad, that's it. In many aspects, he is still very confident in this. Looking at the entire Three Kingdoms, Cao Cao is generally better than Liu Bei and Sun Quan. The latter two are also good at having good abilities. One starts from scratch and takes a lot of effort to finally make the world three points. The other is considered to have a father and brother foundation. With such a foundation, he also makes the world three points, but they and Cao Cao are still a little close. After all, it is Cao Cao's side to fight against the Sun and Liu alliance, which is indeed not easy.
No matter how strong his strength in the north was, the last three points were returned to Jindu in 280, so this is true. If you have to say that Cao* was a little earlier, this is also a little bit of a reason, but Cao Cao was over 60 years old. In that era, living time was not short, and it was definitely a long life. After all, there were even fewer people who lived to be seventy like Sun Quan. The ancients said that life was rare in seventy years, which was not wrong at all. However, Sun Quan lived more than Cao Cao and Liu Bei, and that was indeed better than him.
We are stronger, in this regard. Of course, it is true that Sun Quan is the more confused he is getting older, and that is not wrong at all. Liu Bei's words are also considered one, but Sun Quan is the same. Cao Cao's words are almost there, that's it. However, Cao Cao is older than them and he is more open-minded, so this is definitely the case. And his biggest wish in his life is not fulfilled.
I have always wanted to destroy Liu Bei and Sun Quan, but unfortunately I didn't succeed, and I had a regret in my lifetime. But this is the same. It's not easy to destroy Liu Bei and Sun Quan. Indeed, this is not the first time. When they were Cao **, they were already full of wings, and it was not the average time at all. Cao Cao couldn't destroy them.
Indeed, there is a conflict between Liu Bei and Sun Quan, but as long as Cao Cao attacked one of their sides, the two sides must unite and deal with Cao Cao together. This is the strategy of both sides. It can be said that even if their relationship is not good, there is still a unity. This is indeed a headache for Cao Cao. But he has no choice. Who makes one of them the strongest? It is a great threat to both sides. Liu Bei and Sun Quan both know clearly what it means to lose their lips and cold teeth. As long as one side is destroyed, the other side cannot stand up.
It's too long, this is true. In history, Shu was destroyed in 263 years, while Wu was destroyed in 280. Although there were still seventeen years between them, to be honest, the princes fought for many years and decades during the Three Kingdoms period. If we start from the Yellow Turban Uprising to the destruction of Shu, how many years it took, eighty years, and after Shu was destroyed to Wu, it only took seventeen years.
It is indeed too few. Of course, from the Three Kingdoms period in history, it is from 220 to 263, which is still more than 40 years, so yes, this is true. If Shu Kingdom was destroyed later, then Wu must have been destroyed later. That's about that. Of course, history is not easy to assume, but history is like that, the last three points of the Three Kingdoms
After returning to Jin, the Western and Eastern Jin Dynasty were not as good as the other, so there was no need to say more. Anyway, Cao Cao didn't think he was worse than Ma Chao and Sun Ce. Yes, he admitted that he was not as good as two people in some places. This is normal. The so-called "there is a shorter ruler and a shorter inch strength" is actually like this. But there are not many places where he surpassed two people, and there are several, which is indeed true. So Cao Cao always thought this way, in fact, even Ma Chao and Sun Ce, they both themselves,
I know that I have a place that is not as good as Cao Cao, which is certain. If I don’t say anything else, I just say that he is a treacherous hero. At least in some places, Ma Chao thinks he is not as good as Sun Ce’s words, let alone Sun Ce’s words. It must be admitted that Cao Cao is indeed a person with real skills, otherwise, he would not be said to be a prince second only to Ma Chao.
He has a status and status in history. During the Three Kingdoms period, he was really good. However, Cao Cao could not come now, and he could only handle things in Xudu and could not be separated. But despite this, he was really concerned about the situation in Jiangxia. He almost heard the horses coming to report the latest situation every day. He was still satisfied with Guo Huai before. Speaking of which, Guo Huai did that, and three thousand troops went to attack Xiyang. He still expected that.
And in the end, he couldn't succeed, and he thought of it the same. If you can't go over and attack, it's really necessary, at least Cao Cao thinks it's the same. After all, it doesn't mean that you have fewer people and your side will not attack. This is not Cao Cao's character. For him, it's not a terrible defeat. What's scary is that you don't have the courage to step forward and fight the Liangzhou army to the death. To say that you lose less than 3,000 people, for the Yanzhou army, it's just a drop in the bucket and nothing unacceptable, so this is true. Guo
Huai was very easy to do, and it was satisfying Cao Cao, and this was very good. So when he asked someone to come here, he also considered himself. This must be the case. Cao Cao couldn't guarantee that everyone else could be like Guo Huai, but he knew that it would be fine to send Guo Huai, and it turned out to be the case. It was true that if someone else was talking about it, then not everyone would be
If you can do that, for example, Xu Huang, a general who cherishes his soldiers, he will never be like Guo Huai. This is definitely true. Several others will not do that, but there are also people like him, which is normal. For example, Xiahou Dun will definitely be fine. He is very cruel to himself, let alone to the soldiers. This is really, not at all.
Wrong. But that's the case, Cao Cao would not let Xiahou Dun come. Even if there were only ten thousand people before, he didn't want them to come. Compared with that, Cao Cao naturally thought that Guo Huai was more suitable, at least suitable than Xiahou Dun. This was his idea. Even if the latter was a general, and Guo Huai could only be said to be a second-rate general now, but this is not the biggest problem. At least Cao Cao didn't think so. So in the end, Guo Huai came with his men, not Xiahou Dun. Now his younger brother has led his troops.
It was not him who came. Indeed, Cao Cao asked him to lead the troops alone, and he was a little worried. If he led the troops himself, he would have to take Xiahou Dun with him and let him be by his side. Cao Cao felt that he could feel relieved a lot. Therefore, in this Yanzhou army, Cao Cao generally did not let Xiahou Dun lead the troops alone, and it would be even more impossible if there were too many troops. But he himself
If you lead the army, Xiahou Dun basically follows Cao Cao as long as there is nothing wrong. This shows that Cao Cao respects him. It is really Cao Cao who is not relieved to not let him lead the army, and it is not that he is uneasy and defeated. To be honest, it is all a trivial matter. But as a general like Xiahou Dun, the key is his relatives, and this is indeed impossible to afford to lose. Cao Cao was very worried.
It is clear. On the third day, when the two sides were fighting, the two armies did not fight in front of the formation, and both sides directly fought. For them, this is really, and it must be admitted that after yesterday's battle, both sides had other strategies today. The Liangzhou Army was like Ma Chao said, Cui An tried to free up his hands. If it really doesn't work, Xu Huangteng would not take action. In this way, the Yanzhou Army naturally still had to continue everything yesterday. Of course, they would not let the Liangzhou Army succeed so easily, and they all knew
It's different today than yesterday. If the Liangzhou Army had no reaction, it would not be their style. It was really not Ma Chao and the other persons. This is normal. But in the end, although Cui An still didn't make any moves and the Yanzhou Army did not give them a chance, Xu Huang was also entangled by the Liangzhou Army. I have to say that since the Yanzhou Army can all hold Cui An, then
To be honest, why can't the Liangzhou army drag Xu Huang? In fact, they are all the same. Even though the Yanzhou army is more than the Liangzhou army, Xu Huang is not as good as Cui An, really. Therefore, the final situation is like this. The Yanzhou army still drags Cui An, but their Xu Huang also lets the Liangzhou army drag it down. This is really, the former is what they want, but
The latter was not what they wanted to see. But now that things have come to this point, the Yanzhou Army and the others have no good idea, but the result is not the worst. After all, Cui An was also restricted. Of course, this is naturally not good for his soldiers. After all, they are all the casualties. But this is indeed pros and cons, gains and losses. For the Yanzhou Army, Cui An was restricted and he would not fight with Xu Huang, while the latter was also dragged by the Liangzhou Army. Even if he took the initiative to look for it.
Cui An, there is no chance... But it is impossible no matter how you say it. Don't say that he doesn't have a chance. If he has a chance, Xu Huang doesn't want to find abuse. Although he is the same, he really wants to improve himself, or surpass him. Cui An must be a good opponent, at least it's good, and this is definitely correct. But to be honest, Xu Huang knows that he is still not as good as others, so in the end
