Early the next morning, Yuan Shao's scouts reported that Cao Cao's troops were transporting food to the east of Guandu.
Yuan Shao and Yuan Shang were overjoyed.
The best outcome was to be able to subdue the enemy without fighting.
However, Yuan Shao did not lower his guard either. After all, they were old friends for many years.
Cao Cao was reliable?
Even a sow can climb a tree!
He, Yuan Shao, thought that he was smart and would not make such a low-level mistake.
The 400,000 strong army was still in formation. The vanguard, left and right wings surrounded them while the middle army advanced slowly.
Compared to Yuan Shao's army, Cao Cao's side was much weaker.
In the west of Guandu, Cao Cao stood on the Beacon Tower and looked at the people moving forward. It was a spectacular scene!
Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Jia Xu, and the other strategists were by Cao Cao's side, while Xu Chu stood guard below the Beacon Tower. Everyone's eyes were focused on the route that Yuan Shao's army was taking. They held their breaths and focused their attention.
Even Cao Cao couldn't relax in this life and death battle.
Guo Yun was probably the only person in the entire military camp who was relatively calm. It was really confusing that he had not arrived at the Beacon Tower yet.
"Is the abstruse immortal still sleeping?”
Cao Cao looked around, but he did not see Guo Yun on the two-mile road from the Beacon Tower.
"Mystic Immortals are really ambitious!"
"How can he still sleep in such an intense battle?" Jia Xu sighed.”
"I think abstruse immortals are confident in their strategies!”
Xun Yu thought for a moment and looked up at the position of the sun, which gradually moved to the middle of the sky. He smiled and said,"According to the speed of Yuan Shao's army, when we reach the plains east of Guandu, it will be close to 11:00. Xuan immortal is really a divine foresight!”
"Zhongkang, be honest. Did Mystic Immortal drink with you last night?”
Guo Jia frowned. It was almost noon. How could he still be asleep?
"I can't say."
Xu Chu kept his mouth shut.
Cao Cao was speechless.
Jia Xu was speechless.⊙)”
Xun Yu was speechless.
Guo Jia,"Convex!"
How could the four of them not know the reason behind his words?
He was afraid that Guo Yun would play some tricks again.
"My lord, look! Isn't that General Guo?”
Yang Xiu had sharp eyes and hurriedly pointed at a small hill on the outskirts of the plains. Guo Yun was currently leading five hundred iron cavalry to ambush there.
"How audacious!"
Guo Jia was extremely worried, but there was nothing he could do to stop it.
Cao Cao was also worried. Guo Yun was his favorite strategist. The Battle of Guandu was only the beginning. Cao Mengde's goal was to unify the world. If Guo Yun had some melon tofu, he would be heartbroken.
"Nonsense!"
"This is nonsense!"
Cao Cao scolded.
"That's right!"
"The abstruse immortal is too reckless, I can't stop him!”
Even Xu Chu was complaining.
" Huh?!"
Cao Cao glanced over,"You stopped him?"”
"That's right, my lord. Who doesn't wear armor on the battlefield?”
"Mystic Immortals aren't like me," Xu Chu complained to himself."They have thick skin and thick flesh…"
Before Xu Chu could finish speaking, Cao Cao exploded."Get down!"
"I'm not leaving. I have to protect my lord!”
This time, Xu Chu was not so obedient.
Cao Cao was stunned when he heard that. He was quite touched, but he shook his head and did not say anything more about Xu Chu.
Xu Chu added,"If it weren't for the fact that I wanted to protect my lord, I would be charging into the enemy's line with the Mystic Immortal!"”
"Why don't you go now?" Cao Cao praised.”
What the f * ck did this mean?
So it was me who dragged you down?
"Really?"
Xu Chu's eyes lit up when he heard that. He looked as if he was going to charge into the battle alone. Cao Cao almost exploded on the spot.
Guo Jia was speechless.
Xun Yu: "??"
Jia Xu: "???"
Yang Xiu was speechless.
Cao Cao was not in the mood to pay attention to Xu Chu.
Time flew by, and Yuan Shao's army had already advanced to the plains east of Guandu.
At this moment, a deafening horn sounded.
"Shoot!"
In the distance, Cao Ren led the army, and ten thousand archers came out from the hill behind them. They took advantage of the hill's height and shot at Yuan Shao's left flank.
In an instant, the ballista bolts rained down like a storm. Under the sunlight, Yuan Shao's left wing army couldn't even raise their heads to distinguish their direction.
Merely three rounds of arrows disrupted Yuan Shao's left wing army formation.
Chaos immediately appeared.
"Counterattack!"
Yuan Shao roared, and the war drums shook.
After Yuan Shao's archers drew their bows and nocked their arrows, they were also hit by the direct sunlight. They could barely open their eyes and counterattacked based on their senses.
"The Mystic Immortal's strategy has succeeded!"
On the Beacon Tower, Cao Cao was excited. After seeing the arrows of the left archers reach the far end, he laughed loudly,""Open up the gap on the left flank. If the Tiger Leopard Battalion charges again, Yuan Shao will be in chaos!”
"The right wing is also in chaos!"
Guo Jia's eyes narrowed as a smile appeared on his lips."The left and right wings are in chaos, the Tiger Battalion is about to attack!”
The casualties caused by the arrows on both sides were actually not many, but right now, Yuan Shao's army had at least twenty thousand casualties, most of which were caused by the stampede of the soldiers.
Even if Yuan Shao had close to four hundred thousand soldiers, he would not be able to withstand the loss of twenty thousand soldiers before the cavalry could charge in!
At this moment, the second horn sounded.
Guan Yu and Xu Huang led the Tiger Leopard Battalion to charge from the left flank, while Xiahou Dun and Zhang Liao led the Tiger Troop to charge from the right flank. Xiahou Yuan, Yue Jin, Li Dian, and Yu Jin led the remaining 80,000 infantry to charge forward.
A triangular formation was instantly formed.
Even though Yuan Shao had lost close to thirty thousand elite soldiers, he still had three hundred and fifty thousand soldiers, enough to suppress Cao Cao's army.
But the problem was that Xi Zhao's eyes were too glaring. Even if the 80,000 cavalry charged into the middle formation, it would be useless. The people could open their eyes, but the horses could not. Before they could even charge into the Cao infantry formation, Yuan Shao's 100,000 cavalry had already thrown their formation into disarray, causing them to suffer numerous horse disasters.
On the other hand, Cao Cao's two elites, under the leadership of the fierce generals, were like indestructible spears. In the blink of an eye, they pierced through the two wings and entered the center, cutting apart the formation of Yuan Shao's army.
Seeing this scene, everyone's hearts almost jumped out of their chests.
Yang Xiu was dumbstruck. He had never seen such a shocking scene before. He jumped up excitedly and almost fell off the Beacon Tower.
Looking at the scene of Yuan army being reaped and blood flowing like a river, Cao Cao clenched his fists tightly. His eyes were red, and even ripples appeared in his eyes.
He knew that he was about to win!
This battle could almost determine the balance of victory and defeat between Yuan Shao and himself!
Even Guo Jia, Xun Yu, and Jia Xu, the top strategists in the world, were speechless. This battle of defeating many with fewer people was destined to be remembered in history, and they were all participants.
I'll definitely leave my name in history!
And all of this was due to one person!
Guo Yun!
Guo Xuanxian!
"Xu Chu, go and help the Mystic Immortal immediately. No matter what, we can't let anything happen to him!”
Cao Cao's pupils constricted as he ordered.
At this moment, the 500 cavalrymen lying in ambush on the hill also moved!
On the Beacon Tower, everyone's hearts instantly rose to their throats!
The five hundred cavalrymen were like sailboats in a torrent, sweeping through the wind and waves.
Guo Yunling was in the front, riding his horse and diving down. He held a long halberd in his hand, like a peerless god of war. He suddenly shouted,"Brothers, let's fight for the kill!"
Zhao Yun was speechless.
