three days later
On Fan Yangcheng's general ordering platform, Yuan Shao was fully armed and stood in the center of the high platform. Dian Wei was also fully clothed and had a tiger guard standing next to him, ready to go. This general stage is for today's decisive battle. Yuan Shao specially asked Dian Wei and his elite men to prepare it in advance.
On the high platform, a large scroll with the character Yuan fluttering in the wind made a strong sound. The high platform is surrounded by civil servants and generals such as Tian Feng, Xun Chen, Tian Yu, Cui Lin, Zhang He, Wen Chou, Zang Hong, Ji Ling, etc. The 700,000 troops below are ready and waiting for Yuan Shao's order.
Seeing this scene, Yuan Shao was very satisfied, he finally waited. Thinking back to the last time we set out with an army of 700,000 in Yecheng, it was the same scene. It has been more than a year now, and the battlefield in Youzhou can finally come to an end.
But when Yuan Shao was still thinking about it, Tian Feng saw that the auspicious moment had arrived, and the lord did not make the slightest move. He was a little anxious and stood up to remind him.
"Your Majesty, the auspicious time has come. Please give me the order!"
"Okay, very good, thank you for your hard work, sir, I understand!"
After hearing Tian Feng's reminder, Yuan Shao also reacted, agreed, and then prepared to issue the order to attack. But before that, he had to confirm again to avoid any mistakes when the war started.
Thinking of this, Yuan Shao once again confirmed to the civil servants and generals under his command, "I don't know how prepared the Fire Ox Formation, which serves as the vanguard of the army, is. Is there anything else that needs to be supplemented?"
"My lord, more than 2,000 fire bulls have been in place for a long time. The materials required for the fire bull array have been prepared and ready. We are just waiting for my lord's order!" Hearing Yuan Shao's inquiry , Tian Feng responded and responded.
"Okay, very good, thank you for your hard work, sir!" After receiving a positive reply, Yuan Shao nodded with satisfaction.
Then he asked Xun Chen, the military advisor who was responsible for training the Eight Formations of Fenghou, "I wonder how well prepared sir is. Now that we are launching a decisive battle against the Xianbei Allied Forces, will there be any problems with the 300,000-strong army?"
"Please rest assured, my lord, Chen has worked overtime in the past few days to train the army to become familiar with the Eight Formations of Fenghou. Now they have basically mastered it, and they are just waiting for the lord to give orders!" He knew that the lord was very concerned about the army's mastery of the eight formations of Fenghou. , Xun Chen answered immediately without any hesitation at this time.
"Hahaha, very good. This will put Gu Gu at ease. After Xianbei is defeated, Gu will definitely ask for credit for sir!"
Xun Chen's answer made Yuan Shao even more satisfied. Taking advantage of this pride, Yuan Shao asked Zhang He, who seemed to be the leader of the generals, "Jun Yi, I wonder if Gu's 400,000 troops are in place. Can we launch an attack immediately?" A battle of annihilation for the Xianbei Allied Forces!"
"My lord, the 400,000-strong army is ready and can launch a decisive battle at any time. Lord, please rest assured!" Zhang He was very excited when he heard Yuan Shao's questioning and immediately knelt down to report.
"Hahaha, that's right. Now I can rest assured and the decisive battle can begin!"
After receiving Zhang He's affirmative reply, Yuan Shao said with a smile, and then turned his attention to the two counselors Tian Yu and Cui Lin. Just as he was about to speak up and inquire about the movements of the coalition forces, the two of them gave him insight. Before Yuan Shao could speak, the two of them rushed to reply.
"I would like to report to my lord, after receiving my lord's instructions, Yu has intensified his efforts to alienate the coalition forces in the past few days. Now they are incompatible with each other. My lord, don't hesitate, it's time to annihilate these beasts!"
"Please rest assured, my lord, what Mr. Tian Yu said is true, and so is the news Lin received. Now the coalition forces are in disarray. As soon as our army arrives, their coalition forces will be wiped out!"
"Hahaha, thank you gentlemen, thank you for your hard work!"
After receiving this information, Yuan Shao smiled proudly, and then without any hesitation, it could be said that he couldn't wait to give orders.
"Where are everyone?"
"I'm here, please give me your orders, my lord!"
"The general is here, and I can only obey the Lord's orders!"
"Hahaha, very good, I am very satisfied with this!" After receiving a positive reply in his own voice, Yuan Shao smiled happily.
Then he continued to give orders, and ordered to everyone, "Let the three generals Gao Gan, Hao Zhao, and Guo Huai lead an army of 300,000 people who are familiar with the eight formations to set off first and set up an ambush thirty miles away from the coalition camp. Arrange in advance. Eight formations behind the good wind, wait for the defeated coalition forces to arrive!"
"Hahaha, thank you so much, lord. The last general will take your orders. Please rest assured, lord!" When they heard that they were selected first and such an important task was given to them, the three generals were very excited and immediately knelt down. He took the order.
Yuan Shao thought highly of the three generals, Gao Gan, and wanted to train them more, otherwise he would not reuse them. After the three generals received the order, Yuan Shao nodded with satisfaction and gave another order.
"Order Zhang He, Wen Chou, Zang Hong, Ji Ling, and Ma Dai, each leading an army of 60,000, to immediately launch an attack on the coalition camp after Yang Wei in the Fire Ox Formation. Without giving them a chance to breathe, they will continue to fight until the end of the war. Until Gao Gan and the others meet up!"
"It's your lord, we obey your order!" Zhang He and other five generals also knelt down happily to receive the order.
Seeing that Dian Wei was impatient, Yuan Shao was amused and ordered him, "Instruct Dian Wei to personally lead an army of 50,000 people and drive the fire ox as the vanguard to help the generals defeat the enemy. Remember to wait for Yang Wei after the fire ox formation. General, please remember not to rush forward. You only need to keep an eye on the Liaodong army. The other armies will kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds!" Updated fastest Qiqi /
"It's my lord, I Dianwei understands!" Although he couldn't join the generals in killing him, which was not satisfying, Dianwei was still very interested in dealing with this group of rubbish from Liaodong and immediately accepted the order.
"Hahaha!" Dian Wei's response made Yuan Shao smile unconsciously, and then he said to the civil servants under his command in a pleasant manner, "I'll trouble you four military advisors to defend Fanyang City with Gu. Stand high on the tower. Wait, sit back and watch the generals kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds!" Qiqi first published on the whole website
"Hahaha, my lord is wise, and I will accept my orders!" After Yuan Shao finished speaking, he received a collective response from all the counselors below.
This made Yuan Shao even more proud. Seeing that the tasks of the civil servants and generals had been arranged, the next step was to issue the order for a decisive battle.
So Yuan Shao cheered up, took out his sword, walked towards the edge of the high platform, and came to his own big banner. He also reached a position where all the 700,000 troops below could be seen, and then stopped.
Under the watchful eyes of the 700,000-strong army, Yuan Shao made a swipe sound and slashed his left arm with a sharp sword. The bright red blood flowed out immediately.
"My lord, no!"
"My lord, no!"
"My lord, no!"
"Prime Minister, no!"
"Prime Minister, no!"
"Prime Minister, no!"
Under the exclamation and astonishment of the army, Yuan Shao endured the severe pain and sprinkled his own blood on the banner to sacrifice the flag. Then he dipped his finger into the blood on the sword, wiped it on his forehead, and shouted to the army below.
"Sirs, Xianbei killed our people and humiliated our wives and children. The crime is so heinous that it is unbearable. I personally raised a large army to punish the people and punished them. Now success or failure depends on this battle. I hope the soldiers will fight bravely to kill the enemy. Please reward me for your meritorious service!"
"Please prime minister, we are all willing to kill the enemy and perform meritorious service!"
"Your Majesty, Prime Minister, just give the order, we dare not obey it!"
Seeing that the morale of the 700,000-strong army was good, they all screamed and urged him to order the dispatch of troops. This made Yuan Shao very satisfied, and finally added a fire method.
"Brothers all know that my son Yuan Xi died tragically at the hands of the Xianbei Allied Forces. Gu is incompetent and has not been able to avenge his shame until now, so that he cannot smile under Jiuquan. Now the time is ripe, Gu, as a father, asks everyone , avenge me. At the same time, I want to avenge my fellow villagers who died tragically at the hands of these beasts like Xianbei!"
After saying that, Yuan Shao really lowered his head, bowed his hands to the soldiers, and saluted, hoping to get help from the soldiers and avenge his shame.
The soldiers had been holding back a lot of anger in their hearts, but now they saw the Prime Minister of the dynasty treating them with such courtesy and calling them brothers. This made them unable to bear it any longer, and the morale of the army suddenly exploded, and everyone was shouting and boiling.
"Kill all the beasts and take revenge!"
"Kill all the beasts and take revenge!"
"Kill all the beasts and take revenge!"
"Okay, okay, very good, pass the order, the army sets off, let the decisive battle begin!" Seeing that the goal was achieved, the crowd was furious, Yuan Shao pointed his sword in the direction of the Xianbei coalition camp and ordered.
"As you command!"
"As you command!"
"As you command!"
Following Yuan Shao's order, the 700,000-strong army, led by the generals, followed their lord's instructions and headed straight for the Xianbei camp to begin the final battle in Youzhou!
