Volume 2 Conquest of Jiangdong] Chapter 144

Chapter 144

Xiahou Dun sat firmly on the horse that was already exhausted, stabbing the heavy steel gun in his hand fiercely.

The sharp and sharp spear tips were already killed countless times, faithfully following the owner's intentions, and made a slight sound. The face penetrated into his eyes smoothly and twisted. The chest of Yuan Shujunjun rushed up.

But before Natun Chang died, he had red eyes. He used all the power of death to throw the big sword in his hand at Xiahou Dun's face. At such a close distance, the blade arrived instantly, and Xiahou Dun had only time to dodge his head to the side and avoid the vital points of the face.

The swirling sword whistled heavily on his shoulder armor.

The gilded tiger head on the shoulder armor burst into pieces, but it finally blocked the arrival of the big sword. Although it did not really cut into the shoulder, it caused a severe pain on Xiahou Dun's right half of his body, which turned, but followed by numbness and weakness.

Seeing that his desperate efforts could only bring such a result, the originally shining eyes instantly lost their luster. The powerful body no longer had any strength and softened. Xiahou Dun swung his gun like a rag.

Xiahou Dun was shocked: "If they had fought so fiercely from the beginning, they would not have the ability to advance such a long distance, and they would have been able to completely destroy this square of time.

Alas! Damn Ji Ling, it would be a shame if he came back a little later!”

However, the battle situation of tens of thousands of people will not be only shifted by personal will.

The three deputy generals of the Yangzhou Army were relieved when they saw Ji Ling coming back.

Seeing that the soldiers in the first formation were like they were resurrected, they were vaguely blocking the enemy's assault.

While everyone sighed that General Ji had a strong influence, they immediately ordered that the 20,000 soldiers behind him immediately entered the battlefield and began a fierce counterattack against Cao's army, which had been blocked from moving forward.

The battle situation instantly went from one-sided massacre to a stalemate.

The Cao army's casualties were originally minor, and they immediately expanded rapidly. Even if the Cao army could fight, the enemy was not a mud. There was a fundamental difference between a team of 10,000 people and a team of 10,000 people, which was that 10,000 people did not resist and stretched their necks to wait for chopping, but they were afraid they would have to chop for a long time.

He originally planned to defeat the ten thousand Yuan Shu's army and could also take advantage of the victory to attack Xiahou Dun and Dian Wei, who were in the back two formations. Seeing that Yuan Shu's left-wing rear army also began to mobilize, he knew that the best fighter plane had passed.

However, mobilizing the entire enemy has achieved the basic tactical purpose of this attack, which is the lord and military advisor repeatedly explain to lure the enemy. It is time to retreat, otherwise even if the 30,000 Yangzhou troops in front of him would be defeated, there would be only a few people left on his side.

～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～

Cao cāo and Xi Zhicai looked at the changes in the battle situation, and at first he looked happy.

Surprise the achievements of the two brave generals on his side: "It's a good fight, so I really take advantage of his illness and kill him! In this way, it seems that you can defeat the enemy's left wing without having to dispatch an ambush!"

When Ji Ling returned to the formation and the situation of the battle changed, he sighed deeply and said intimately. Seeing that his archers who supported the attack could no longer shoot arrows to support him after his army broke into the enemy formation, they had already turned back to their own formation and re-arranged the formation.

Cao cāo sighed helplessly: "Zhicai Ming Jin, let Yuan Rang, Jun Ming and the others withdraw!"

Xi Zhicai nodded and shook his head quickly: "Lord! Our first formation is completely entangled with the enemy. I am afraid that the enemy will take the opportunity to chase after the retreat now, so the soldiers will suffer heavy casualties! It is better to beat the drum and let them rush forward!"

Cao cāo glanced at Xi Zhicai: "Zhicai! You are so smart and you still lack some control over this battle formation! If Ji Ling had not come back just now, with Yuanzhang their attack, the enemy formation could be destroyed with one blow.

Unfortunately, our army's offensive has now stalled and its spirit has been lost! It is impossible for the forward rush to break out of the enemy formation. The enemy's rear formation is ready to move again. If the battle continues, Yuan Rang's ten thousand soldiers will not be able to retreat.

Only by taking advantage of the moment, the enemy's rear formation has not yet been encircled. The first formation is basically destroyed by our army and the resistance is at least, can we succeed. You must remember that our goal is to lure the enemy!

Don’t shake your original purpose for some damage or benefits!”

Xi Zhicai immediately understood and bowed to thank him: "Oh! The lord, Xi Cai, Zhi Cai is reckless! Zhi Cai is taught!"

This wise man who is familiar with military books finally understands that there is still a huge gap between studying military books and skilled in combat formations.

At this time, Cao cāo was like the most stable and accurate machine, and he could also clearly grasp the subtle changes in the battle formation.

His voice was cold but steady, and he ordered: "Rien the green wolf smoke, let Zi Lian's left army attack!"

It turned out that Cao's army commanded the three lurking reinforcements with three straits.

The sound of Cao's withdrawal of troops sounded. But Yuan Shujun, who had just exclaimed, was reluctant.

"As soon as you come up, you can kill us, which caused the first army to suffer heavy casualties and almost collapsed. Now our General Ji is back. If you get the benefits, you want to run away, and there is no door! We want to take revenge! Who can't beat the dog like falling into the water?"

When the Cao army retreated, the soldiers of Yangzhou soldiers who were "pursuing victory" suddenly came, and the generals could no longer restrain their team. Every soldier who was eager to take revenge screamed and rushed towards the retreating team of Cao army, and there was no longer a neat system.

On the huge battlefield where tens of thousands of people were mixed together, smoke and dust rolled, and a fierce melee occurred. Both teams were both sharp and neither of them was willing to suffer a loss easily. It was like two giant dragons entangled together for death, rolling towards Cao cāo's formation.

When Dian Wei and Xiahou Dun each led a thousand people with the support of crossbowmen, he turned around and fought to block Yuan's pursuit. Only less than three thousand soldiers were left behind them alive. On the battlefield where they retreated all the way, nearly ten thousand corpses of people on both sides fell.

Cao's army lost half of the first battle in this battle. The battle was less than a thousand when it attacked. This time, he took advantage of the victory and lost nearly four thousand people. This made the two generals tremble with heartache. These are all the real jingsharp skills in Yanzhou!

～～～～～～～～～～

Yuan Shu frowned with a not-so-tight brow. After the war started this day, there was almost no good news.

"Early in the morning, Zhang Xun sent a report to the death. Liu Jingsheng, who was raised by the bastard, will come to Cao Mengde, and I will definitely bring a strong army to flatten your Jingzhou and ask you to seize the way out for me. Zilu is right. This news must be absolutely blocked, otherwise it will be a disaster for the morale of the army! That guy who reported the news will let him rest forever!"

"Just just now, Fu Yi sent someone to report to him. Be careful of Cao Mengde's ambush! The damn ambush! Alas, just Cao Mengde's cunning xing, he would definitely arrange for the ambush.

But where will his ambush be? When will he be dispatched? Why didn't there be any news from the scout?

But now I have several times more troops than you, so I have set up an ambush. In the end, who ambushed whom is not sure! I am not afraid of you Cao Mengde!"

Seeing the straight blue smoke pillars rising from Cao's camp, Yuan Shu snorted coldly in his nose, "Can you be unable to hold on so quickly? Fu Yi's counterattack is indeed powerful! Haha, I have the powerful general Ji Ling in my hand, even if you Cao Aman's little abacus!

Come and send my cucumber horse to General Ji! Tell him that it doesn’t matter if the horse dies, and I will give it to you again. As long as he beats the thief Cao hard. If Cao cāo is taken down, I will let him be the governor of Yanzhou! Haha...!"

The laughter came to an abrupt end in half. Yuan Shu saw the current governor Jin Shang, who was ashen in front of him, not far away.

Although everyone knows this, everyone abides by the rules and no one will tell it clearly. Yuan Shu was a little embarrassed and made a decision. He seemed to have not seen Jin Shang, and turned around and walked towards his own battle stand.

To facilitate the battle, although Jin Shang was angry, he was naturally tactful and would not come forward to question anything.

Looking at the left-wing army that had lost nearly half of the losses ahead, it was already in chaos for the sake of attack.

Yuan Shu frowned and ordered: "Liang Gang! Twist your 20,000 troops out of the camp and lined up on the left wing to prevent Cao's army from attacking behind!"

"Hehe, Cao Mengde, I have some soldiers. It depends on what tricks you have, just use them!"

In this battle, his subordinates performed much better than the previous battle. They could fight Cao's army for several rounds. At least no one was about to collapse at a touch, which made Yuan Shu's heart full of hope for victory.

"It seems that Fu Yi and the others have indeed practiced these farmers! Putting down their hoes, they are also good at fighting! Hehe! What a good soldier!"

Yuan Shu's order was issued, and the soldiers left behind in the camp were suddenly in chaos. No soldier in the camp was neat and incomplete. There were even many people who were not even wearing light armor, but were just flat.

I wore a Quyou winter clothes when I was resting, and I was wandering around and watching the fun. Especially the army close to the walls of the village, there were less than half of the soldiers in the camp.

But Yuan Shu transferred the nearest army at hand. When they finished the assembly, it was already half a stick of incense. The soldiers who were watching the fun were in a hurry, and some of them forgot to take the weapons in their hands and went on the field empty-handed.

At the end of the team that was advancing outside the camp, Deputy General Liang Gang ignored the soldiers with chaotic equipment under his command.

I thought to myself: "Anyway, General Ji won the game before, so everyone is just going through the motions! It will be noon soon and you can go back to the camp for dinner. I will let these bastards get well equipped in the afternoon!

Now let’s deal with the general’s mission. I think I will be promoted to general as well after taking the opportunity. Haha! What a cheap job.”

It can only be said that the orders of the superiors may not be able to go down in the end. The subordinates' disobedience often distort the orders at the top, and even things will go against their wishes.
