As soon as the golden gong sounded, Zhang He's team, who had not been put into the battlefield, immediately protected Cao Lao Da and retreated slowly. The team was tidy and the army was purged. The pioneers were not impatient, and the latter was not afraid. They retreated to the camp in an orderly manner, showing good combat quality and psychological quality, and also prevented Xu Huang, the Xuzhou cavalry team on the opposite side from daring to act rashly.

Seeing that Cao's army finally retreated, Deputy Director Tao wanted to order a general attack on drums, but Jia Lao's poisonous creature on the side grabbed Deputy Director Tao and said quickly: "Lord, there is no need to launch a general attack. This place is only three miles away from the Cao army camp. Even if the general attack is immediately, it will not expand much results, and it will increase the casualties of our soldiers. Instead of doing so, it is better to let Cao Mengde retreat with his right wing, concentrate his superior forces, and eat the left and central army of Cao's thieves who were entangled by our army first."

Deputy Director Tao, who knew Jia Lao's ability to poison, accepted advice and gave up his plan decisively and sent a quick horse to order Xu Huang's team not to pursue Zhang He's team, waiting for subsequent orders. At the same time, he sent a quick horse to send a more flanked Cao Xing team, which was ordered to lead his army to urgently go to the main battlefield to reinforce. When Cao saw that the Xuzhou army's reserve team was still not moving in Zhang He's team, he was shocked and angry, and cursed: "The dog pottery thief who killed the sky is really calm."

At this time, although Dian Wei's team was still trapped in the formation and rushing left and right, it was difficult to break through, Li Dian's team on the flanks had begun to retreat. No matter how they surrounded and blocked the Danyang rogue soldiers, it was difficult to effectively expand the results of the battle. Deputy Director Tao did not discuss with Jia Lao Poison, and decisively ordered Xu Huang's team to divide two thousand cavalry and rush to the right wing of his army to reinforce Wei Yan, and help Danyang rogue soldiers intercept Li Dian's team's return. Seeing that Deputy Director Tao was well-organized, Jia Lao Poison did not object.

After a moment, Xu Huang's deputy Tuo Mian rushed to the right wing of the Xuzhou army and stopped Li Dian's team by detour. Although the exhausted Li Dian's team fought hard, their physical strength had dropped seriously and they could not break through the array of Xuzhou's new forces. The Danyang soldiers who were good at beating the water dogs behind rushed fiercely again. Li Dian's team quickly showed a defeat, and a large number of soldiers fled in all directions without obeying orders. The team gradually collapsed and the collapse speed was getting faster and faster.

At the same time, Dian Wei's team, with a large number of auxiliary soldiers, had already begun to collapse, and the collapse speed was far greater than that of Li Dian's team. The panicked Cao's soldiers rushed to escape to the gaps between the various troops in Xuzhou, trampling and pushing each other, and were in a mess. The Xuzhou army was slaughtered and slaughtered by the Xuzhou army in line. Dian Wei could not restrain himself and had to lead the elite soldiers around him to fight to break through. The Xuzhou central army was cheering loudly, and the rush became more and more fierce.

Although he saw that Dian Wei and Li Dian were doomed to be defeated, Boss Cao was too willing but not enough. The only Zhang He team that maintained the establishment was not only stared at by Xu Huang's cavalry team. Cao Xing's team was also coming here quickly. If Boss Cao dared to act hasty, he might even lose even worse on the entire line. Therefore, Boss Cao, who is good at making choices, could only ignore it without expression and concentrate on leading Zhang He team to retreat to the camp.

In this way, relying on the support of Cao Chun's team, Zhang He's team, where Cao Boss was intact, retreated back to the camp. Dian Wei and Li Dian's team were motherless in the fields of Coptis chinensis, and they were so hard that they could not be more miserable. The organization was chaotic by Xu Huang and Cao Xing's team, and they were completely defeated. Then they were massacred by Xuzhou soldiers who were fighting in line with a complete attack. In the end, when Li Dian's team finally escaped back to the camp, the soldiers had already reached more than 70%, and almost all were injured. Dian Wei's team, which was surrounded and beaten by Xuzhou's heavy troops, was even worse, with less than 800 people fled back to the camp one after another. Dian Wei was hit by two arrows, and the remaining soldiers were either wiped out by the Xuzhou army or became deserters or captured, and the Xuzhou army won a complete victory.

After cleaning the battlefield roughly, it was already dark. Although many Xuzhou generals proposed to attack the battalion overnight, and the rear army also sent torches, turbulent oil and other night battle items, considering that the main force was already very tired, Deputy Director Tao gave up his plan to attack the battalion overnight and ordered to withdraw his troops and return to the battalion, preparing to let the army rest overnight, and at the same time rescue the wounded soldiers as much as possible, and then come to attack the battalion again the next day.

In response to this, some Xuzhou generals also expressed concern that Mr. Cao would escape overnight. Deputy Director Tao replied: "Cao thief will not withdraw his troops. If his elite team is fast enough, they can return to the battlefield to reinforce the day after tomorrow. How could Cao thief suffer such a big loss today?

Deputy Director Tao, who gradually lost the advantage of the prophet, finally miscalculated once. After knowing that it would be difficult for his main force to return to the camp, he immediately ordered to retreat to Changyi. He also decided to lead the army first and arranged for Zhang He to lead the army behind him. Cao Chun led the army five miles away from Zhang He's team to protect the flanks of his own army. If the Xuzhou army directly pursued and fought with Zhang He, Cao Chun would be a surprise soldier to fight; if the Xuzhou army sent cavalry to detour to block the return of Cao's army, then Cao Chun's team could not only fight immediately, but also Zhang He's team could reinforce immediately.

It was halfway through the night, and the Cao army, who had been prepared, suddenly abandoned the camp and retreated to Changyi, two hundred miles away overnight. The fourth correction was made, and the whistle horse sent the news to the Xuzhou camp. Deputy Director Tao hurriedly got up and discussed countermeasures with Jia Lao Poison. Jia Lao Poison suggested sending troops to pursue him overnight to expand the results of the battle. Deputy Director Tao was a little worried and said, "Not to mention the treacherous Cao, you must be prepared to retreat. If the Cao thief was severely damaged and he was unable to compete with Yuan Shao, it would be harmful to our army's interests."

"Lord, don't look forward and miss this great opportunity to win." Jia Lao Poison replied: "Cao Mengde withdraws his troops overnight, because he did not order Xiahou Yuan's elite troops to return to the rescue quickly. He knows that it is useless to support his troops, so he withdraws his troops overnight. If the lord does not take advantage of the victory, he will most likely make a comeback after Cao Mengde meets his elite troops. Only by seizing the opportunity now can he severely damage the main force of Cao's thieves, burning their food, grass and military supplies, so that they can't fight again, so that they can truly repel Cao's thieves' invasion."

After hearing what Jia Lao Poison said, Deputy Director Tao also made up his mind to start a pursuit on the spot. When he was hurriedly promoted to the tent and ordered the troops to pursue him, although all the generals of Xuzhou who had been tired all day asked to lead the army to pursue him, Jia Lao Poison took out a few more cloth strips and said to the generals of Xuzhou: "Don't fight for each other. Cao Cao is cunning. The retreat must be a back of the elite soldiers and fully prepared. Whether our army pursues directly or light cavalry to block the return of Cao's army, they will inevitably be intercepted by the elite soldiers and generals of Cao's army or even ambushed. It is extremely difficult to win!"

The generals of Xuzhou closed their mouths, but Jia Lao Jiu smiled and said, "But there are not many elite troops in the Cao army. After the first pursuer of our army was intercepted and ambushed, the second pursuer could easily catch up with the Cao army brigade and start a massacre. Therefore, our army now needs a general who has lost his battle. It is better to draw lots. Whoever catches one will go to lose his battle. Go to fight hard to get time for friendly troops. Whoever catches two will go to slaughter fat sheep and get the greatest military achievements. I just don't know what the generals mean?"

Jia Lao's poisoning method was very fair, and the generals of Xuzhou naturally accepted it happily, and as a result, they took the lot. Wei Yan became the lucky one to win the battle, and Xu Chu became the unlucky one to lose. Seeing Xu Chu's dejected and frustrated look, Deputy Director Tao laughed with the generals and said, "Zhongkang doesn't have to be discouraged. As long as you can fight to the death and bit Cao's elite soldiers and win time for our rear army, you will be the first contribution in this battle."

The competitive Xu Chu finally smiled a little. After Deputy Director Tao arranged for Xu Chu to lead his army to pursue 10,000, he ordered Wei Yan: "Chang Wen, your headquarters has suffered a lot of casualties today, and the soldiers are very tired, so don't take the headquarters to chase. I asked Tian Xiang and Tuo Mian to lead 5,000 cavalry to accompany you to chase Cao's thieves, and let them obey your command. If you can prove that you can also lead cavalry, then the father-in-law just rewarded me with the five thousand war horses, and I will give it all to you, and upgrade your team to cavalry!"

Wei Yan was overjoyed and hurriedly held his fists and sang the promise. Deputy Director Tao reminded Wei Yan to be careful and listen to the suggestions of two cavalry generals Tian Xiang and Tuo Myanmar. Don’t be greedy for merit and make progress lightly. Then he arranged for Zhao Yun to lead a army to prepare to take Xu Chu to prevent it. Then he waved his hand to disperse the tent, letting the army act separately, patiently waiting for the pursuit of the results, and also to see if Jia Lao Poison's analysis of the enemy situation is as terrifying as the legendary one.

It was just the same as Jia Lao's poisonous substance. When it was dawn, when the team led by Xu Chu caught up with Zhang He's team behind the Cao army, it was indeed hit by Zhang He's team. Cao Chun also came from the flanks and attacked Xu Chu's team on both sides. Xu Chu's army fought hard and suffered heavy casualties. Fortunately, Zhao Yun's rear army arrived in time and caught Cao Chun's team from the flanks. The four armies fought in a melee, and it was difficult to decide the winner.

The news was sent to the boss Cao through the fast horse. Boss Cao, who had already retreated through the lake, laughed and said repeatedly: "It's ridiculous that the pottery thief is not conspiring. Jia Wen and Shaozhi don't know that the reason for withdrawing troops in the last battle is to have the power behind the powerful army? The command Zhang He and Cao Chun to let them fight hard and must kill the pursuing soldiers of the pottery thief!"

Before he finished speaking, Boss Cao's little black face immediately turned into a tiny face, because Boss Cao suddenly heard the sound of thunderous horse hooves from the far south, and the sound of slogans of capturing Cao's alive can be heard. Boss Cao was shocked and angry and cursed, "The Taoist thief Jia Wenhe who killed the heavens, there are still pursuers after the pursuit! Such a shameless tactic, you can use it!"

After cursing, Boss Cao had no choice but to order the generals to fight to the death. Dian Wei, who was injured in the arrow, also gritted his teeth and carried his halberd on his horse to prepare for the fight. Unexpectedly, after the pursuers in Xuzhou approached the Cao army, they refused to directly attack the Cao army's brigade. Instead, they used the tragedy of this area to open up the terrain, bypassed the Cao army's blocking team, and directly killed the baggage team at the waist of the Cao army. The team also spewed out the unique flames of countless flying muskets. Boss Cao was shocked and hurriedly ordered Dian Wei and other generals to lead their troops to rescue.

Dian Wei and other generals led their troops not far away. A new horse-hoof slogan suddenly broke out in the depths of the snowflakes in the south. It turned out that Wei Yan, who was quite wise, knew that Cao must use warriors to block his own army, so he ordered his deputy Tian Xiang and Tuo Mian to lead two thousand cavalry first, and went to the waist of Cao's army. He led a thousand cavalry to ambush the back with the cover of snowflakes. When Cao's army went to rescue the baggage team, he led the army out.

The small tactic that Wei Yan temporarily arranged almost changed the whole world trend, because Cao had sent Dian Wei and other generals to the front for rescue and stayed in the back team to organize the team. When Wei Yan suddenly broke out, he happened to run away with Cao Cao, who was caught off guard. Wei Yan saw Cao Cao riding on the horse from afar. Although he didn't know who it was, he also understood that he must be an important figure in Cao's army. Then, relying on his riding skills and rope-made stirrups, he took out his carry-on bow and arrow in a high-speed charge. Without saying a word, he shot out one arrow, and his character exploded, and he hit the front of the boss Cao in front of him……………………

"Ah!" The poor boss Cao screamed and immediately turned over and fell off the horse. When the guards on both sides rushed to rescue him, they saw the arrowhead hitting the head of the boss Cao. Not only did he shoot Cao into the three-petal mouth of the rabbit, but he also shot two of the front teeth of the boss Cao. Fortunately, these two front teeth were blocked. Otherwise, the arrowhead would have been inserted into Cao's throat and burst into tears.

Seeing that he shot down the important officials of the Hongpao Cao army, Wei Yan, who still did not know the identity of the eldest son Cao, threw his bow and knives over to behead him. The guards quickly picked up the eldest son Cao and retreated quickly and fled deep into the crowd. The soldiers of the Cao army ran around and fled in a mess. Wei Yan could not find the important officials of the Hongpao, and had to give up and instead lead his army to rush to the rear team of Cao army. He slaughtered the back team of Cao army, and Dian Wei and others who were hurriedly returning to the rescue. When they heard that the eldest son Cao was caught in the arrow, they were so scared that they dared not fight with Wei Yan, but they just looked for the whereabouts of Cao's eldest son Cao in the chaos. As a result, Cao's army was completely defeated, and countless people were trampled on each other, and the cattle and horses were abandoned in the row. Wei Yan's team rushed to the fullest and achieved great success.

It was also at this time that Wei Yan finally realized that he had gone great fortune, because Wei Yan vaguely heard a Cao army soldier shouting the slogan that the prime minister was shot. In surprise, Wei Yan quickly led his army to hold a Cao army soldier who shouted this slogan. After asking, he realized that he had left luck and shot Cao boss. Maybe he had shot Cao boss to death! In ecstasy, Wei Yan hurriedly ordered the soldiers to shout the slogan that Cao thief was dead, which further shaking the morale of the Cao army, and then rushed to the Cao army more violently, and Cao army was even more defeated. All the baggage was abandoned and they fled north.

Wei Yan's arrow also helped Xu Chu and Zhao Yun. When the news that Cao might have died was passed on to the battlefield behind the palace, Zhang He and Cao Chun, who had already had a certain advantage, suddenly panicked and hurriedly led their troops back to the rescue. Xu Chu and Zhao Yun took the opportunity to chase and defeated Zhang He and Cao Chun, and annihilated countless enemies.

After a pursuit, the pursuers in Xuzhou seized almost all the supplies of Cao's army. The ones who were not captured were burned and killed more than 10,000 enemies. Of course, 99% of the Cao soldiers were auxiliary soldiers and civilians, and they won a complete victory. The Cao army was completely defeated, and the troops fled separately. In addition to the 25,000 troops who went north to Pingyang, the 70,000 troops who fled back to Changyi City with Cao, were less than 10,000 people who fled back to Changyi City, and most of them were injured. Fortunately, the guards were able to rescue him and rescued Cao in time and went north. The poor Cao was lucky enough not to be the captive of Deputy Director Tao.

In fact, the unstoppable Xuzhou army could have further expanded the results of the battle, and even taking advantage of the situation to attack Changyi City was easy to take advantage of the situation. However, Deputy Director Tao considered that killing Cao Boss at this time would definitely only give up his father-in-law for nothing, so when Wei Yan, Xu Chu and Zhao Yun's team chased Fang Yucheng, which had long been abandoned, Deputy Director Tao decisively ordered the stop of chasing and recalling Wei Yan and other generals to give a heavy reward. At the same time, the Xuzhou army was also moved to Hulu, first to prevent Cao Boss and Xiahou Yuan from making a comeback after joining, and second to prepare for taking advantage of the situation to capture the two counties of Rencheng and Lu, further strengthening the liaison with Qingzhou and consolidate the wings of the territory.

In addition, Deputy Director Tao naturally had to send people to inquire about the movements in Changyi. When he learned that Boss Cao finally fled back to Changyi with injuries, Deputy Director Tao was not only not disappointed, but also overjoyed. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The thief who killed the gods makes me worry for a long time. If you die, I will be in trouble."

"Lord, it's time to ease the relationship with Cao Mengde." Jia Lao Poison next to him said, "In his opinion, the lord might as well send an envoy to Changyi to contact Cao Cao, and ask Cao Ang to exchange for his lord's brother in order to continue the battle. With Cao Cao's talent, he must understand that the lord is unwilling to fight with him, and will quickly withdraw from the northern line and no longer threaten the five counties of Xuzhou."

Deputy Director Tao hesitated for a moment before saying, "Of course I don't want to continue fighting with Cao Zhe, but Cao Zhe just suffered such a big loss. If he was angry and insisted on continuing to fight..."

"It's impossible!" Jia Lao Poison decisively rejected this possibility and said, "If it were Yuan Benchu, then it would be very likely that he would fight to the death with us and would never stop without regaining his face. However, Cao Mengde is different from Yuan Benchu. Cao Mengde only considers interests. Continuing to fight will only damage his interests. Yuan Shao, who is in vain, will never be able to ease his relationship with him. Therefore, Cao Mengde will definitely withdraw his troops!"

Speaking of this, Lao Jia added with a smile, "In terms of the relationship between the Zongli and Lianheng, Cao Mengde and his lord are very similar. No matter how big the hatred is, even if it is a killer of his father, as long as it is profitable to work together, Cao Mengde can work with his lord without blinking."

"Mr. Wenhe's words are bad. How could my character be as despicable as Cao's thief? I just wanted the people of Xuzhou to avoid the war, so I joined hands with Cao's thief against my will." Deputy Director Tao shamelessly boasted and nodded, "Okay, let Jiang Gan work hard. Ziyi is a famous scholar in Jiujiang after all. Even if Cao's thief does not want to truce, he will not kill him casually."

After making this decision, Deputy Director Tao thought for a moment, and in order to be on the safe side, he ordered Chen Ying: "Yuan Fang, write a document to my father-in-law for me, report the news of our army's victory over Cao thieves, and report the detailed process of our army's victory to him. The more detailed the better. Finally, I told him that Cao thieves may have been seriously injured and died. Please do not worry about the war in Xuzhou, just rest and recover, restore military strength, and when the time is ripe, we will join forces with our army to destroy Cao!"

"Master's letter is because he wants to get it?" Chen Ying, who has been led a lot, asked tentatively: "I deliberately advise Yuan Benchu ​​to stop moving, which makes Yuan Benchu ​​suspect that Yanzhou is profitable, and immediately send troops to Yanzhou to take revenge and alleviate the pressure on our army?"

"Yuan Fang has indeed made great progress." Deputy Director Tao laughed and said, "I remember that Cao Zhe once commented on my father-in-law, "I cherish my life when doing big things and lose my life when I see small profits! If I don't say anything right and lure it for profits, how can my father-in-law send troops as soon as possible?"
Chapter completed!
