Three miles away, the dust soared into the sky. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Cao Ren rode his horse and galloped, urging the army of 5,000 to march in the direction of Dongjin City, all the way to the east.

As soon as the horses were overthrown, the scouts rushed from the front, "General, three miles ahead, there are enemy troops blocking the road. ”

Cao Ren raised his eyebrows and shouted: "How many enemy troops are there, and who is the one who commands the troops?" ”

"General Hui, the enemy army only has 700 cavalry, and under the banner of the word 'Tao', it should be the pottery merchant himself who led the troops to block it."

Potters get in the way!

Cao Ren's expression changed slightly, his expression was a little surprised, and he seemed to can't believe that the pottery merchant dared to come to stop him in person, and only brought seven hundred cavalry.

"This little thief is treacherous, he should know that it is difficult to stop my advance with seven hundred cavalry alone, and there must be another mystery in this......"

Cao Ren's thoughts were racing, and he soon guessed that there must be a conspiracy in the appearance of the potter.

After pondering for a moment, a sneer rose at the corner of Cao Ren's mouth: "You only brought seven hundred cavalry, just to let me light the enemy, let me crack the formation and boldly rush to kill, carving insect skills, do you think I, Cao Ren, will let me." ”

After figuring out the mystery, Cao Ren immediately ordered the whole army to change its formation, changing the long snake formation of the rapid march to the opening of the military formation, and steadily advancing.

When the order was passed, the five thousand elite Cao troops immediately stopped running, and quickly formed a military formation, like an iron wall, towards the location of the Tao army.

Half an hour later, Cao's army was in a huge formation, approaching a distance of six hundred paces.

On the hillside, the potter saw the formation of Cao's army clearly.

At the front of the enemy formation, shieldmen and halberders opened the way, spearmen and crossbowmen were hidden in the formation, and more than 100 cavalry were protected by the flanks and rear.

Whether from the front or from the flank, the potter, with only 700 cavalry, could not break through the enemy formation.

"Cao Renguo is worthy of being the first general of the Cao family, and the magic of this formation is the essence of foot control." Even as an opponent, the potter couldn't help but applaud Cao Ren.

The veteran Lian Po has already frowned, "Cao Ren's formation is very orderly, my army may not be able to make a detour from the flank, and it is even more impossible to break through from the front." ”

"Mingjin, the whole army retreats." The potter didn't say anything, only this sentence.

Lian Po was stunned again, but he didn't expect that just now, the potter was still full of confidence, but he didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, he would retreat without a fight.

Could it be that the lord of his own family was so frightened by Cao Ren's military formation that he couldn't shrink into fear?

This is not in line with the style of the potter.

When Lian Po was still suspicious, the potter had already beaten his horse and left first, so Lian Po had to press the guess and lead 700 cavalry to retreat with the potter to the east.

As soon as the Tao army withdrew, the enemy troops hundreds of paces away immediately saw it clearly.

The corners of Cao Ren's mouth raised a little proudly, and he sneered: "Pottery thief, you really saw that my big array was invulnerable, and you had to withdraw your troops, hmph, I will kill you in one go and relieve the siege of Dongyi." ”

Cao Ren immediately ordered the army to continue to advance in formation, following behind the Tao Shang army. All the way to the east of the city to kill.

The potter and Lian Po led 700 soldiers and horses and retreated all the way east.

Suddenly, on the road ahead, nearly 100 mule carts, grain, grass, and cloth were scattered all over the place.

The potter reined in his horse, and pointed his sword at the small slope to the north, "All of them retreat with me to the dirt slope and hide behind the slope." ”

The cavalry quickly changed direction, bypassed the convoy blocking the avenue, climbed the small slope pointed by the potter, and hid behind it.

The potter stood at the head of the slope, his eagle eyes shining directly to the west, and there was a fierce sneer on his heroic face.

Lian Po looked confused.

He couldn't figure out why there were more than 100 discarded mule carts on this avenue, and they were also full of military supplies.

"Could it be ......" Suddenly, Lian Po's expression moved, as if he had guessed something.

At this moment, in the direction of the West Avenue, Cao Ren's 5,000 elite soldiers had already advanced in formation.

A group of Cao Jun were like chicken blood, with the heart of meritorious service, frantically pursuing, but suddenly, they were blocked by the same convoy.

The 5,000 soldiers of the Cao Army, who were born in Qingzhou, were so excited that their eyes lit up and their faces were greedy when they saw the horses and mules and carts.

Cao Ren's face also changed slightly, and he didn't know how a group of mule carts suddenly appeared on this avenue, blocking the way.

Just when he was still suspicious, those greedy Qingzhou soldiers rushed out of the military formation without Cao Ren's permission and went to snatch the mule carts that blocked the road.

In the blink of an eye, the originally solid military array collapsed in an instant, and thousands of Cao soldiers rushed up, fighting for the grain, grass and cloth in front of you, where to care about any military orders.

Cao Ren was furious and scolded again and again, but he couldn't suppress this group of greedy Qingzhou soldiers, so he could only watch them, like crazy, pushing and shoving, scrambling for the materials blocking the road.

The potter smiled.

Lian Po beside him, seeing such a picture, finally suddenly realized, and looked at the potter anxiously with amazed eyes, "It turns out that the lord has already set a trap, waiting for Cao Ren to take the bait?" ”

The potter smiled but said nothing.

These more than 100 carts of materials were indeed placed here in advance by the potter's subordinates, just to lure Cao Ren's soldiers to rob them greedily and make his army break without a fight.

When he learned that Cao Ren's army was based on the Qingzhou soldiers from the Yellow Turban Army, he expected that although this army of soldiers and horses was strong in combat, they could never change their-eating nature and could not restrain their robbing nature.

Cao Cao still can't fully control the Qingzhou soldiers, let alone Cao Ren.

It was this Achilles' heel of him that the potter seized on and used 700 cavalry as bait to lure Cao Ren into the trap he had laid.

"I didn't expect that the old man had guarded Xiaopei for a long time, and he was not as good as the main man's opponent temperament......" Lian Po shook his head and sighed.

"Old general, don't sigh, now is the moment for you to truly show your might."

The potter laughed, pointed his sword at the chaotic enemy army, and shouted: "Kill the whole army, kill the enemy army for me!" ”

The thunderous order was issued, and the whole army was boiling.

Lian Po shook his spirits, danced his sword on the horse, and killed like a storm of wind first.

Yingbu was also unequivocal, rushing all the way down.

Seven hundred iron horsemen jumped out from the dark side behind the slope, and slammed into the enemy like a torrent.

On the road, the Qingzhou soldiers who were scrambling changed color in shock, and fell into a panic in a blink of an eye.

Cao Ren, who was frowning, turned his face blue in an instant.

At this moment, he suddenly realized that he had fallen for the trick of the potter.

In fact, the pottery merchant besieged the city of Dongqi but did not attack, not because he could not attack it, but because he was implementing the strategy of encircling the point to send reinforcements, deliberately trying to lure him to raise troops to come to the rescue.

And the potter came to stop him with 700 cavalry, and he saw through the greedy nature of the group of Qingzhou soldiers under his command, and had already laid the bait in advance to make his military orders chaotic.

The potter's appetite was beyond his imagination, not just to capture Dongyi City at all, but to destroy his five thousand elite soldiers in one fell swoop, and take it together with Changyi City!

"Pottery thief ......" Cao Ren was extremely angry, gritted his teeth, and fell into a situation of helplessness for a while.

To the north, the raging iron cavalry torrent has swept in.
