Chapter 557: Heading North

"Wolf smoke?" Yuan Yao walked out of hiding, Cao Ren was completely caught in his Yuan Yao's trap, it was not easy to go back, at least more than half of the 20,000 troops would be lost here. The rest of the people would be half-crippled, if they were able to go back.

However, Yuan Yao was still not satisfied, what he wanted was to open the passage between Shanyang County and the Juye Army, and Cao Ren's army was only the first step.

Originally, Yuan Yao's plan was to let his soldiers and horses ride Cao Ren's defeat and follow Cao Ren into Juye County.

But now with these wolf smoke, it's different.

Yuan Yao had a better idea.

"Come on, pass the order, and let Zhang Xun's Modao battalion all change into Cao Renjun's clothes!" Yuan Yao shouted to the soldiers and horses under his hands.

"Light the wolf smoke!" Waiting for Zhang Xun to wear the clothes with his soldiers and horses, Yuan Yao asked his subordinates to light up all the wolf smoke left by Cao Ren.

Yuan Yao already knew the effect of Cao Ren leaving wolf smoke.

"What about General Cao Ren?" Li Tong asked

"The general is still behind, this time we not only won a big victory, but also captured Yuan Yao'er alive, and the general is watching Yuan Yao'er from behind!"

"Good, good, good!" Cheng Yu laughed and said three good words in a row, as long as Yuan Yao got it, the stalemate in the entire Yanzhou would be lifted, so that not only Yanzhou would not be hindered, but the battle situation in Hebei would suddenly become clearer from the Yanzhou battle situation.

"Isn't that right?" Li Tong was still uneasy.

"General Li Tong, General Cao Ren is right, you are still too cautious, it is a good thing to be cautious, too much, that is to mislead others and yourself!" Even Cheng Yu also had an opinion on Li Tong, "You see that the wolf smoke has been lit, if it weren't for General Cao Ren's victorious return, this wolf smoke would not have been lit!" ”

Cheng Yu has his own plans, originally the purpose of wolf smoke is to inform the enemy, generally speaking, the plan fails to use wolf smoke, but Cheng Yu is different, he uses it the opposite, if he doesn't know, he will only hide the wolf smoke, how can he set him on fire?

Isn't this telling the enemy that you're coming?

Now Cao Ren lit the wolf smoke. That means that Cao Ren won on Jiuli Mountain.

Li Tong also rubbed his brain, maybe he was really too careful, he was too careful, he thought there was a conspiracy when he saw everything, Li Tong laughed at himself, if Cao Ren really won, he Li Tong, as Cao Ren's deputy general, naturally has to have a share of credit, why not do it.

Thinking so, Li Tong also let go, "Come and open the city gate, and welcome our Wang Shi to return victorious!" ”

Li Tong and Cheng Yu didn't know, but a sneer appeared on the corner of the little school's mouth below.

"Click!" The gates of Sanyo-gun slowly opened.

Li Tong was just about to go to greet Cao Ren's victorious return, but he heard a voice from the city: "Brothers, the gate of Shanyang City has been opened, follow me to kill!" ”

"Kill, kill, kill!" All of a sudden, Cheng Yu and Li Tong were dumbfounded.

……

Li Tong and Cheng Yu were dumbfounded, and Cao Ren over there was even more dumbfounded.

He wanted to die, and he fell for Yuan Yao'er's tricks, so he finally rushed out of Yuan Yao'er's camp with the soldiers and horses under his hand, but he didn't expect that a chasing soldier was pasted on the back like a dog's skin plaster.

The soldiers and horses under Cao Ren's hands are all elite, even if they are dumplings by the enemy, they are not so easy to annihilate easily, so there are no less than 5,000 people who follow Cao Ren to fight their way out of the encirclement.

But what about these 5,000 people, they all fell on the road, either by these ghosts behind them with bows and arrows, or they couldn't help but charge towards the Yulinwei over there.

One is a foot soldier and the other is a cavalry, and the outcome of the counter-charge can be imagined.

Slowly, there were dozens of people left around him, Cao Ren.

"Is my Cao Ren going to be defeated here?" Cao Ren is very unwilling in his heart, since he Cao Ren followed Cao Cao to conquer the world, that time was not invincible, Cao Cao escaped from danger every time he ascended to heaven, he Cao Ren's credit was his Cao Ren, without him Cao Ren in the rear to help him Cao Cao looked at Xu Du, Cao Cao would have been defeated a long time ago.

But I didn't expect him Cao Ren to be pecked by the geese all day long and frightened his eyes today, he Cao Ren is still too greedy, or he has been held back for a long time, and wants to find an opportunity to show that he Cao Ren is not just a good defender, he is also good at attacking, but unfortunately he was defeated in a battle, and now he is forced to this point by Yu Linwei.

"There, there! Catch them, where to run! Yu Linwei's voice was getting closer and closer.

Cao Ren gritted his teeth, and there was a hint of determination in his eyes, even if he Cao Ren committed suicide, he would not be Yuan Yao'er's prisoner.

"General, there is salvation, there is salvation, general, look over there, look over there!" The guard on the side said and pointed to a place and shouted at Cao Ren.

"Huh?" Cao Ren turned his head and looked at the place where his guards were pointing.

Cao Ren looked at it fixedly, and it turned out to be a wild dog cave.

"No, the husband can be killed, not humiliated!" Cao Ren shouted loudly.

"General, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, if you are caught by Yuan Yaoxiao'er now, how can you take revenge?"

"Yes, General, Han Xin endured the humiliation of his crotch, General, you can go in!"

Gritted his teeth, in order to take revenge, Cao Ren finally turned into the begging of his subordinates, this dog hole is not big, it can only fit three or two people, and the rest of the people can only leave to buy time for Cao Ren to get out.

"Dog Cave, Cao Ren is there in Dog Cave, catch him!" Yu Linwei, who had just chased out, turned back again, grabbed the guards and knocked out Cao Ren's hiding place from the mouths of some of them.

"General go quickly, the Huainan army is killing again!"

Cao Ren could only crawl out of the dog hole and enter the escape again.

"Over there, general, as long as you hide there, Yuan Yao's soldiers and horses won't be able to find you!" The guards said to Cao Ren excitedly again.

Black and white, emitting a foul smell.

It's a pile of guano, or it's accumulated over the years where flocks of birds live.

"The big man can be killed!" Cao Ren also called out again.

This time, the guards were not as consoled as last time, but directly pressed Cao Ren's head and stuffed it into the bird droppings, "The general is offended!" ”

"You, you, woo woo!" A large amount of mud-like objects suddenly poured into Cao Ren's mouth, and of course he Cao Ren knew what it was, and in a fit of anger, he passed out.

The remaining two guards are really loyal to Cao Ren, and even if they are killed, they are unwilling to reveal the slightest news of Cao Ren.

"Haha, I'm finally, finally in Shanyang City! Yuan Yao'er didn't expect it, not only was my Cao Ren not captured by you, but I also survived! Cao Ren thought that he was chased by those Yu Lin Guards, first hid in bird feces, and then bricked a wild dog hole, and now Cao Ren is full of hatred for Yuan Yao Xiao'er.

Now it's okay, he, Cao Ren is back, he has returned to Shanyang City, "Yuan Yao, Xiao'er, you wait for me, even if I have 20,000 troops left, I will definitely let you knock out your front teeth outside Shanyang County!" "Cao Ren is full of confidence, who made Cao Ren a good general.

Cao Ren was about to regain his morale and prepare to settle accounts with Yuan Yao Xiao'er outside Shanyang County, when he suddenly saw the flag flashing above the city, and was dumbfounded.

He was trembling all over, stretched out his finger and pointed to the banner on the head of the city, and only after a long time did a few words come out: "Yuan Yao, Xiao'er!" Burst! Cao Ren couldn't hold back the blood in one breath, and he fainted on the spot.

Above the city, the banner of the Huainan Army is shining.

Not only Shanyang County, but also Juye County is also looking at the wind, and the Taishou of Juye County over there can be regarded as a person who knows the times, and when he saw that Shanyang County, which was heavily guarded, had fallen, and Cao Ren was gone, Juye County Taishou surrendered without thinking about it.

You Cao Ren can't even stand Shanyang County, how can my Juye County resist so many Huainan troops from Yuan Yao.

Shanyang County and Juye County, the thorns in the flesh in front of the two Huainan Army, were finally removed. The entire hinterland of Yanzhou was exposed in front of Yuan Yao's Huainan army.

Li Tong deserved to be a person valued by Cao Ren, and as soon as he saw that Shanyang County was difficult to guard, he immediately led his soldiers and horses to break through to the West Gate.

However, no matter how Li Tong broke through, it was in vain in front of Yuan Yaojun's several times the troops, not only did he fail to leave Huainan with his vital strength, but he almost put himself in.

In the end, Li Tong had no choice but to take off his armor and sword with Cheng Yu, disguised himself as a common man, and hid among the homeless people and went in the direction of Xu Du.

In the battle of Shanyang, Yuan Yao successfully used bait to welcome Cao Ren out of the turtle-like Shanyang County, gathered his main forces to fight an ambush on Jiuli Mountain, and completely buried Cao Ren's 20,000 field troops.

The two cities of Shanyang and Juye were broken by Yuan Yao, which was regarded as a complete opening of the road to Xuchang in the hinterland of Yanzhou.

At the same time, this victory once again boosted the morale of the soldiers and horses under his command.

Cao Cao's soldiers and horses had been repelled in Huainan before, but that time had been a long time.

Now Yuan Yao's army has won a new victory, so after Shanyang County won the first battle, Yuan Yao's subordinates are all proposing that Yuan Yao strike while the iron is hot, take advantage of the victory to pursue, immediately go north, take Yanzhou East County, cross the Yellow River from Baima and directly block the back road of Cao Cao's main force in Hebei, so that he can retaliate against Cao Cao's repeated attacks on Huainan and serve the purpose of eliminating Cao Cao's occupation of Yanzhou.

As the saying goes, one drum and then three times exhausted, looking at these civil and military generals under his hands, they are shouting to send troops to the main battle.

Yuan Yao can't chill the hearts of his subordinates.

Immediately, Yuan Yao took a group of dogs with his subordinates, except for one or two left to arrange the affairs and defense of Shanyang and Juye, the rest of the soldiers and horses were directly taken north by Yuan Yao to continue to attack Cao.

Yuan Yao himself went north, and sent a letter to Puyang, teaching Yuan Shang, who was stumbling to attack the city, to stimulate Yuan Shang, so that Yuan Shang could consume more of the living force of Cao Cao's army.

Yuan Yao also planned to write a letter and send it to Hebei, but then stopped writing.

Cao's army was defeated in Shanyang County and Juye County, and Lao Cao would inevitably block the news of the entire Yanzhou, so that the news of Yanzhou would not be transmitted to Hebei, and Yuan Yao didn't know when he would be able to send letters to Puyang from here, let alone send them to Hebei.

Waiting for the messenger to arrive, I'm afraid I don't know the Year of the Monkey.
