As the front line of the army, he should have been on the front line of killing the enemy, killing enemy generals, catching enemy flags, killing enemy soldiers, breaking enemy formations, and smashing enemy spirit. Facing the Ji River, which is not wide on the river, Zhang He dispatched the engineer troops in the Hebei army after careful investigation and preparation. When the sky was dawn, he snatched the floating bridge with lightning speed and lightning. At the same time, he used two thousand archers to press the formation, all of which were strong bows and hard crossbows. The range of feather arrows could reach dozens of steps south of the south bank to prevent the Zhou army's raid.

When the Zhou army discovered the movements of Yuan's army, it was too late to send troops out of the camp to counterattack and demolish the floating bridge. He could only monitor Yuan's army with scouts and cavalry, while quickly gathering soldiers and preparing to go out of the camp to fight. The Yuan army soldiers in the brigade quickly passed through the floating bridge on the Ji River with weapons and formed a formation on the south bank. The Zhou army had already opened the gate of the village, and the Ruizhes with helmets and armor were pouring out continuously from the self-operated operation.

Half an hour later, the two armies were completed. The first face-to-face formal battle between the two armies in Hebei and Jiangdong is about to begin.

This day was the first day of the sixth month of the first year of the Han Tianyou year. Tens of thousands of healthy men fought for their respective ambitions to unify China.

In order to facilitate command of the more than 100,000 troops, Zhou Yu divided the battalions of the army stationed in Guandu into three parts. The central army was originally located in Zhou Yu's tent, and the main troops included Xinyi Camp, Yuzhou Camp, Wancheng Camp, and the personal guards.

The left army was led by Lu Su, and all the troops were withdrawn from the Baima, including nearly 40,000 people including Dongcheng Camp, Niuzhu Camp, Bag Camp, Hurricane Camp, Scout Camp, and other scout camps, including 5,000 cavalry, and the remaining 4,000 cavalry were led by Zang Ba, Zhao Yun, Xue Lan and Li Feng, and attacked the food routes in the rear of Yuan's army. The main cavalry general was not there, and Zhou Yu temporarily appointed the commander of the army's young general, Lu Meng, with the deputy captain Yuan Xiong.

Although Lu Meng was born in Jiangdong and was skilled in boats, he was quite good at horseback. During the White Horse garrison, Lu Meng often practiced with the soldiers of the Hurricane Camp and the Scout Camp. His control of the war horses and horse riding and shooting skills also made the elite knights in the camp admire him. Especially Lu Meng's height of nearly eight feet and his majestic physique were suitable for the heavy cavalry that replaced Zhao Yun to command the Hurricane Camp.

The central army was in the middle, the left army was lined up west, and Liu Bei's camp was located between the central army and the right army. The vanguard of Zhang He chose to build a floating bridge. After crossing the river, he directly faced the right army of Zhou Yu's army.

The strength of the Zhou army's Right Army cannot be underestimated. It has more than 50,000 troops in the camp, including Zhongyi Camp, Changsha Camp, Nanchang Camp, etc. Needless to say, Gao Shun, even the generals such as Huang Zhong, Wei Yan, Dong Xi, and Zhu Zhi all have the courage to be inappropriate.

Gao Shunzhi's army was purged and was serious. With its ambition to "emble the generals and defeat each attack", its camp has long become famous in China, especially the 800 warriors who are the most capable of fighting, repeatedly hitting the enemy with a heavy blow at the critical moment of the battle.

Huang Zhong made a great reputation in Jingzhou with a big sword in his palm and his loyalty and righteousness. In the battle between Zhou Yu and his army to attack Jiangxia, he was defeated repeatedly and was captured by Zhou Yu alive. He was suspicious by Huang Zu and seized military power. Later, he was re-activated by Liu Biao and fought with Zhou Yu's general Taishi Ci and Gao Shun for several days, but was suspicious by commander Han Xuan and was sent to prison. At this point, Huang Zhong's side suddenly woke up and opened the city gate to welcome Zhou's army into the city with his personal guards, and officially joined Zhou Yu's subjugation. Zhou Yu selected 5,000 Jingzhou soldiers and organized them into Zhongyi camp, which was led by Huang Zhong and stationed in Jingnan.

To show his favor, Zhou Yu presented the precious sword "Red Shadow" that he seized from Huang Zu to Huang Zhong. This sword was cast by Xiang Yan, a general of Chu State during the Warring States Period. The blade was extremely sharp and cut iron like mud. Later, Qin general Wang Jian defeated the Chu army. When the Qin army attacked Qinan, Xiang Yan committed suicide. During his suicide, Xiang Yan's blood sprayed on the "Red Shadow" sword, making the knife even more sharp.

Huang Zhong loved "Red Shadow". This time, when Shangguandu was on the north, Huang Zhong swore to the knife and did not drink the blood of the five generals of Yuan's army, and was ashamed of the knife.

Wei Yan, the commander of Changsha Camp, was young and promising, brave and good at fighting. He was originally a general of Changsha Prefect Han Xuan. When the Zhou army attacked Changsha, he led his troops to fight to the death and surrendered to the rear. Zhou Yu cherished his courage and selected 5,000 troops to surrender in Changsha to form the Changsha Camp, and handed over to Wei Yan to command Changsha.

Wei Yan's ability to command troops was even better than Huang Zhong. In history, he was once assigned by Liu Bei with important tasks and promoted to the position of governor, and was appointed as general of Zhenyuan, guarding Hanzhong. At that time, it was unexpected that everyone thought that Zhang Fei was able to take this position. The facts proved that Liu Bei's ability to use people was accurate. Just when Liu Bei's army was burned by Lu Xun, the general of Eastern Wu in Yiling, Bashu was shocked, and Cao Wei took advantage of the situation to attack. Wei Yan had good governance and proper guards, which made Cao Wei not dare to act rashly, and it was difficult for him to peek at Hanzhong for a long time.

Dong Xi is now the deputy general of the camp. He is eight feet long, square in front of him and wide in his mouth. He is extremely powerful. He once fell into the mountains of Shunyi. When Zhou Yu led his army across the river to the south and swept across Jiangdong, Dong Xi was subdued by Gao Shun. Since then, he has charged under Zhou Yu's tent and made great contributions.

Zhu Zhi's name was Junli, and was a former native of Jian in Danyang. He first became a county official and then worked as a prefecture. At that time, the Han Dynasty was in name only and fell, and many heroes rose up, so he joined Sun Jian's command to plan a future. After Sun Jian and Sun Ce died one after another, Sun Quan led his troops to join Zhou Yu. Zhu Zhi and Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang and other generals also went south together. At first, they were unified into the Yuzhou camp. Later, Zhu Zhi was transferred by Zhou Yu as the lieutenant of the military camp. He recruited 20,000 troops near Nanchang to farm and train while farming. Those with skilled martial arts were supplemented into the Jiangdong army. When there were too many vacancies, they recruited new recruits. This was repeated.

In this battle of Guandu, Zhou Yu mobilized Zhu Zhi's military farming soldiers of Nanchang Camp and Chen Wu's 30,000 people of Wancheng Camp to the front line. On the one hand, it was used as a reserve force to enrich its military strength, and on the other hand, it was used to allow these soldiers who had been engaged in a long-term military farming to participate in formal battles, experience cruel battles, and see blood at first sight, hoping that they will grow rapidly.

After receiving a report of Yuan's army's attack, Gao Shun immediately ordered the entire army to welcome the enemy and keep Dong attack. Zhu Zhi led his troops to guard the camp and led Huang Zhong and Wei Yan out of the camp.

After the two armies formed the formation, Gao Shun stood under the main general's head, and saw Yuan's army listing the "Yanxing Formation" from afar. The main general was in the center and the two wings were spread diagonally. Once the war started, he could encircle his army from both sides, which was an attacking formation.

There were ten thousand people, boundless, and nearly 50,000 Yuan troops gathered into a formation, and the momentum was naturally amazing. Yuan troops were all wearing bronze armor, and looking at the distance, the sun was clear and clear. At this time, the morning sun was about to rise, and the sun shone slanted on the bronze armor of Yuan soldiers, shining brightly.
