Chapter 809: Divide the Troops and Fight

You know, on the battlefield in Yuzhou, Yuan Shu has invested 50,000 elite soldiers. If Ji Ling's 50,000 troops are added to the army, there will be 100,000 elite soldiers and horses alone. If you add in the thousands of defenders in various cities, , it can be said that the military strength has exceeded that of the coalition forces.

Another point is that the coalition forces belong to the offensive side and Yuan Shujun belongs to the defensive side. It can be said that the offense and defense are in different positions.

But if Ji Ling's 50,000 troops were aimed at Cao Cao's Xuzhou battlefield, and if Yuzhou battlefield failed to seize this critical time, then after Ji Ling defeated Cao Cao's army, the war in Yuzhou battlefield would have ended.

After much consideration, Pang Tong still suggested that Huangfu Chaobo divide his troops into three groups. Because there were 10,000 cavalry accompanying the army, these 10,000 cavalry could be used as scouts. Runan is located in Huaibei and belongs to the plain terrain. Although there are many rivers crisscrossing it, they are not as dense as Jiangdong, which is just suitable for cavalry.

According to Pang Tong's arrangement, the Anton Army and the Yuzhou Army were mixed and divided into two armies. Then the lord players mainly composed of Zongheng Tianxia and Huangjin Tianxia formed a third army. The 150,000 troops marched together and echoed each other.

Then Huangfu Chaobo summoned the generals to discuss matters, and the Chinese army camp suddenly sounded the call to gather the generals.

Two quarters of an hour later, the generals of the coalition army captain level and above and the lord players who led more than 2,000 troops all arrived at the Chinese army's tent to participate in the discussion.

The reason why we choose players with a military strength of more than 2,000 is because the maximum population of a large town is 20,000. Calculated by drawing one out of ten, the military strength can reach 2,000. If you add the troops to defend your own territory, it means that At least one of the player's territories has reached the level of a large town, but due to some reasons it has not been upgraded to a small town. The strength of such players is above average among lord players.

Zongheng Tianxia quickly arrived at Huangfu Chaobo's tent. Regarding the dispatch of troops, Huangfu Chaobo first communicated his arrangements with him. He was still hesitant at first, but when he heard that Huangfu Chaobo was willing to lend him After two thousand cavalry, Zongheng Tianxia still agreed to the idea of ​​dividing the troops.

He also considered it very clearly. Although it would be safer to follow the Anton Army and the Yuzhou Army, the credit and gains would definitely be much better. However, if he sent troops with other players, with his 8,000-strong army and Chen With his strength, his voice in the coalition army is definitely not low. Coupled with Huangfu Chaobo's two thousand cavalry, the number of troops under his direct command has reached 10,000.

After everyone arrived, Huangfu Chaobo slowly said: "Everyone, the cavalry has sent back the latest news about Yuan Shu's army. Let's ask the military advisor to explain Yuan Shu's army's troop deployment in detail."

After listening to Huangfu Chaobo's words, Pang Tong stood up, walked to the map of Runan hanging in the middle of the tent, and introduced to everyone in detail the information sent back by the cavalry.

After he explained in detail the deployment of Yuan Shu's army, he explained in detail the strategy of dividing the troops into three groups that he had discussed with Huangfu Chaobo.

After he finished speaking, everyone fell into silence. After thinking for a while, Huangfu Chaobo said: "If you have any ideas, please feel free to speak!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Huangfu Chaobo looked at the players led by Zongheng Tianxia and Huangjin Wudi. The Anton Army and Yuzhou Army could decide on their own, but the player army really needed to ask for their opinions.

Zongheng Tianxia has already agreed to divide the troops. Yellow Turban Invincible is not stupid. He quickly figured out the key. He knows that once the troops are divided, even if he cannot be the boss, he will be second only to Zongheng Tianxia, ​​so he quickly agrees to the division of troops. Thoughts, when he saw Huangfu Chaobo looking towards him, he immediately stood up and said, "I have no objection to Boss Chaobo's arrangement."

On the other hand, the other players totaled nearly 50,000 troops. Not everyone was willing to leave the army and take risks. Soon, the lord players were divided into two parts. About a dozen players were willing to join forces with several Zonghengtianxia players. , sent troops alone, and more than ten others requested to march with the army.

Calculated in this way, Zongheng Tianxia and Yellow Turban Invincible's army totaled more than 30,000 people.

According to some estimates, there should be one or two soldiers among the players who did not participate in the meeting who are willing to join forces with the players. In this case, the total strength of the army along the way will reach about 50,000.

A coalition of players has been formed, but many players are in a dilemma about the direction of their attack. The middle lane is definitely not feasible. Xincai in the middle lane has Huang Yi's 30,000 Yuan Shu Army Yulin Army, which is definitely the strongest in combat power. , and also need to beware of the two-faced Yuan Shujun sending troops to assist.

Then apart from the middle direction, there are only two options, east and west. However, the three cities of Ancheng, Shenyang and North Yichun in the west are too close to each other. If a coalition of 50,000 players attacks one of the cities, the other two cities Once troops are sent to help, it is still unknown whether the coalition of 50,000 players can hold on.

If you can't go to the west, then you have to go to the east. But there is another problem. Ji Ling's 50,000-strong army is missing. If his goal is the Yuzhou battlefield, then whoever encounters this army in the east will The probability should be the highest, so more than a dozen players found that it seemed that this was not a very good goal.

Finally, Yellow Turban Invincible gritted his teeth and said: "The goals of Ji Ling's army may be in two directions. Cao Cao in Xuzhou and us in Yuzhou each occupy half. If we divide our troops into three groups, it will mean that our army will encounter them. The probability is only 16%.”

"In that case, the brave ones will die of their arrogance, and the timid ones will die of their fear. Then let's take a gamble. We also have 2,000 elite cavalrymen of Boss Chaobo. Although we can't use them to block the guns, it is still no problem to discover Ji Ling's army in advance. What do you think? Do you want to gamble?"

Everyone heard that it was indeed the case. The probability of more than 10% was worth a gamble.

A lord player next to him said: "Boss Wudi's words are right. Ji Ling is also an infantry. If we can't beat him, can we not run away? Besides, everyone has some cavalry in their hands. Let's gather these cavalry together. In this way, we can expand the scope of cavalry reconnaissance."

The words of the two were unanimously agreed by the rest of the people, so everyone decided that the player coalition would attack the city in the east.

The attack direction of the player coalition has been determined, and Huangfu Chaobo can arrange other troops. He led Huang Zhong to lead 15,000 Hu Ben troops to attack the west line, and the remaining troops of his personal guards and Zhang He's Shenwu Army and Dong Fang's Bao Tao Army attacked the center line.
