Xuan Nang Formation, this is a false formation to confuse the enemy. The formations are very spaced, the majority of flags, the continuous sound of drums, the sound of imitating the marching of military vehicles, and the noise of infantry, as if the number of troops is huge, and various methods are used to deceive the enemy.

"Mysterious bag array?"

Yuan Shao was stunned for a moment, but he had never heard of this formation, and his face was inevitably a little ashamed, and he didn't know what to say.

Seeing Yuan Shao's appearance, Gu Nan knew that he didn't know, so he didn't want to embarrass him, so he didn't ask any more, and answered himself.

"The Xuannang formation is one of Sun Bin's ten formations. The outer army is closely arranged to cover the inner army. The inner army arrays are scattered and staggered to expand the army formation. The chariot drums are set inside to simulate the sound of heavy troops marching. Soldiers make noise to confuse the enemy and make them believe that there is a large army."

Sun Tzu's Art of War was not so widely circulated in this era. The books at this time were cherished, and the book was hidden in everyone's study.

After explaining, under Yuan Shao's thankful eyes, Gu Nan continued.

"Yuan Gong can lead a small army in the Xuanpang formation, led by a group of princes, so that Hua Xiong thinks that a heavy army is coming to attack. After Hua Xiong breaks through the Xuanpang formation, the army is defeated, and then the soldiers throw away their helmets and armor, and gather the crowd to flee. Make the army The formation is reduced, and the mess everywhere looks like a rout of an army."

"So, Hua Xiong will definitely come after him. I heard that General Gongsun has an army who is good at riding and shooting?"

As he spoke, the white-clothed man in the hall turned around to look at a white-faced general sitting on the right, which was Gongsun Zan of Youzhou.

A smile appeared on Gongsun Zan's face, he knew what it meant, it was to take his share.

Although breaking Huaxiong is not a great achievement, no matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat, so why not take it easily?

"Yes, my subordinate Baima Yiconglun's riding and shooting will never lose to the Liangzhou army."

"Okay, then please ask General Gongsun to lead the army to stop Hua Xiong from fleeing."

"Leave it to me." Gongsun Zan said with a smile, anyone would accept such an errand.

"As for the encircling and suppressing armies on both sides, I ask Mr. Yuan to make a decision." Gu Nan bowed to Yuan Shao, as if about to leave.

But she didn't move, and she didn't seem to plan to leave yet. Yuan Shao would definitely keep her, because there was one thing he didn't say.

"Sir." Yuan Shao stopped Gu Nan as expected, with a hesitant expression on his face: "Sir, there is one more thing, please give me your advice."

Gu Nan stopped in his tracks, and asked pretending to be puzzled: "Mr. Yuan, please tell me."

"Sir, which one do you think can be used as an army to lure the enemy?" Yuan Shao said with a perplexed look.

The Xiliang cavalry army is good at chasing, and the speed when chasing the enemy is so fast that people have nowhere to escape.

Under such circumstances, the part of the army that lures the enemy must suffer great losses, and the life of the leader is also in danger. No one wants to be part of this army.

No matter who Yuan Shao appoints, he will offend the princes. He doesn't want to be a villain, so naturally he has to let Gu Nan decide.

"This." Gu Nan seemed to be deliberating for a while, looked at himself, and then at the crowd. After a long time, he gritted his teeth and said generously.

"It's the righteousness of the world to hunt down the Dong bandits, so what if I dedicate myself to them? Yuan Gong, I can pretend to be a prince to lead the army, so why not die?"

The faces of the four people changed, some of them were stunned and some admired. Cao Cao's face turned pale, and he was about to stand up to stop him, but he saw that Gu Nan seemed to be gesturing for him to be calm and not to be impatient. Endure and continue to sit.

"This person is really a great talent, and he has a high righteousness in his heart. If I can, I really want to have a talk with him."

A man in ordinary clothes sitting behind the crowd looked at the man in white with reverence on his face. He looked a little ordinary, the only thing that stood out was his pair of lop ears.

However, the two people standing beside this person are both very handsome, one is nine feet tall, with a red face and long beard.

A black-faced thick-browed man with a rough beard.

The black-faced man heard what the people around him said, and said in a muffled voice: "Since elder brother said so, I will remember this person's appearance, and I will catch you to speak when the time comes."

"Third brother, don't do this, isn't this disturbing sir!"

······

"Okay! Then sir will lead the army!"

Yuan Shao was stunned for a moment when he heard Gu Nan's words, and then he looked ashamed, and the way he looked at Gu Nan changed a little.

People are selfish, and there are very few people who give up their lives for righteousness, but because they can't do it themselves, people will always admire such people.

"But." Gu Nan who was standing in the hall said hesitantly.

"What's the matter, Mister? Just tell me if you have something to do, and Shaoding will give you an answer." Yuan Shao's tone unconsciously carried a bit of concern.

"Yuan Gong, I am under the command of General Cao. General Cao has only five thousand troops in his hands, so it is really difficult to carry out a black bag formation."

As Gu Nan said, he bowed down: "I hope that Yuan Gong will borrow troops to defeat Hua Xiong!"

This is Gu Nan's purpose, to use the troops of the princes to gain momentum and take Cao Cao's strength in the first battle.

The plot is a bit slow, but it is not easy to shorten, so I wrote some more to catch up with the progress, I hope everyone can accept it, sorry, today's update is relatively late.sweat

Chapter 3 Seventeen: Yangmou is sometimes more useful than a conspiracy

Borrowing soldiers?

When Yuan Shao heard this word, his eyes slightly narrowed.

And those present here, those who can be ranked among the princes, are naturally good at observing words and demeanor, let alone such a sensitive word as borrowing soldiers.

Now there is some understanding.

Their gazes fell on the Mr. in white, and some people showed a bit of understanding in their eyes, and they sat in their seats and kept silent.

This gentleman is very calculating, thinking about it, when she came up, what she was thinking about was not breaking Huaxiong and borrowing troops, but what this person really thought about.

Not only Hua Xiong was included in the strategy of defeating the army, but all the princes present were also included in the strategy by her.

None of the princes along the way wanted to confront Hua Xiong head-on, resulting in the loss of their own troops.

But to defeat Huaxiong's Xiliang army, no one is sure that they can easily win without a large number of casualties.

In contrast, it would not be so unacceptable if only the princes of each route borrowed some soldiers to go out.

After apportioning it, each army only needs about a thousand people, which is quite a number, but it is only a drop in the bucket for the tens of thousands of troops of various princes.

With more than a thousand troops to avoid unnecessary losses, but also to win a good name for justice, most of the princes will not refuse.

But if this is the case, these scattered forces will be gathered in the hands of Cao Cao, so that the combat power of Cao Cao's army will not be weaker than that of any princes along the way.

Several people among the princes from all walks of life looked at each other with deep meaning in their eyes, and they all looked at Cao Cao who was sitting in the back seat.

The General Cao that Mr. Bai Yi was talking about should be that Cao Mengde.

I don't know what kind of luck this Cao Cao has had, to be able to call such a thoughtful person, so put in so much effort to help him become popular.

Cao Cao sat there, not paying attention to the eyes of the princes, but looked at the figure standing in the hall.
