Chapter 301: Doubts

As the saying goes: either the east wind overpowers the west wind, or the west wind overpowers the east wind. Cao Cao originally wanted to take advantage of the east wind to go to the next city, but he didn't expect that this time it was not the east wind but the west wind. So, he was defeated, and he was completely defeated.

As soon as the servants of the two armies clashed, Zhang Yan's Black Mountain Army, Yuan Shu's Praetorian Guard, and the soldiers and horses under the command of Ji Ling and other generals burst out with invincible momentum.

Although Yuan Shu's military horses are all from different camps, at this moment, they are brothers and sisters, brothers and sisters of life and death who are twisted into a rope.

It doesn't matter whether it's for the revenge of the brothers who died on the battlefield, or for the Pope of Taiping Dao, or for the royal expedition of Yuan Shu, a puppet monarch, the only thing they have to do now is to kick away the stepping stones in front of them, expel Cao Cao from Qian County, and even cut off his head.

Zhen Chang strategy and Yu Yu, insist on simplicity and shock the world.

When the narrow road meets, the brave wins, and the two armies don't need a long-term strategy when they meet, what they need is to make Pu, and the weapons in the hands of Zhang Yan, Ji Ling and all the soldiers under their command are their Pu. They clenched the "Naopo" in their hands and whipped, beaten, and slashed the enemy in front of them.

Flags are raining, arrows are raining, soldiers are raining, and tens of millions of soldiers and horses are also raining. In an instant, all the raindrops converged into the Yellow River rushing down from the source of Jiuqu, carrying a monstrous killing intent, annihilating Cao's army in the Bifeng Gorge.

"Lao Dian, take the lord away!" Xu Zhu, Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Yuan shouted angrily, not retreating, but advancing, like a clear stream rushing into the crowd in reverse. It's a pity that although Xu Zhu and the three of them are as fierce as tigers, Yuan Shu's soldiers and horses are not lambs but groups of African hyenas. As the old saying goes, ants bite elephants to death, ants can bite elephants, not to mention countless African hyenas?

Zhang Yan and his generals Sun Qing, Wang Dang, Yu Yigen, Li Damu, Yang Feng, Zuo Zhangba, Zuo Xiao, Fuyun and other more than ten people Xu Zhu and the three of them surrounded them, and let Xu Zhu and the three of them move left and right in the crowd to not get out, while Bai Huan, Tao Sheng, Wulu and Yu Poison and Liu Shi and others continued to rush towards Cao Cao's army.

A snake can't fly without a head, and a bird can't fly without wings. Without the generals leading the army, how could Cao Cao's left and right armies with only a few lieutenants and lieutenants be their opponents in vain? Bai Huan and Yu Poison waved long and short spears, as if no one was in a no-man's land, only to kill the two armies one after another, and the blood flowed like a river.

"Xiahou, go!"

Xu Zhuchao roared angrily at the two Xiahou Yuan brothers, stood on horseback and jumped up, fighting

With a knife, Zhang Yan's double axe jumped out of the formation, took out a handful of stones from his arms and threw them into the field, the stone bullets broke through the air, and everyone dodged one after another.

Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Yuan took advantage of the situation to pull the reins out of the encirclement, turned their horses' heads and fled in a panic in the direction of the city father with Xu Zhu.

……

The moon gradually fell, but the sky became brighter and brighter, and in addition to the corpses and blades all over the ground in Bifeng Gorge, there was only a whistling cold wind, but the county seat of the city father, which had just fallen asleep in the middle of the night, was lively again.

"You can't be too anxious to tie the tiger, this defeat in Bifengxia is all Cao's fault, Cao's is too impatient, and he underestimates him Yuan Highway." Cao Cao dragged his tired body to stand at the head of the city, looked at Xu Zhu, Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Yuan who returned with injuries, and Yu Ban generals, and sighed, "How many capable warriors are there under your command?" ”

Yu Ban hugged his fists towards Cao Cao: "Lord Qi, because the last general will take the lead in escorting the lord back to the city father, there are still about sixty percent of the athletes under his command." However, the left and right armies shouldered the heavy responsibility of resisting the pursuit of the enemy, and the troops of Miaocai, Yuan Rang and Zhongkang were less than fifty percent of their combat strength.

The last general, Miaocai and others were still able to support it for a few days, but the soldiers fought and killed overnight, but they were afraid that their physical strength was not enough, and they were no longer able to support it. Moreover, General Zixiao was seriously injured, and the deputy generals and captains under the accounts of the lord and Miaocai and others also lost more than a dozen people, and it is estimated that it is a little difficult to continue in the face of the upcoming Yuan Shu army! ”

Cao Cao nodded and was about to give an order to Cao Hong beside him, but when he saw Cheng Yu on the side, he frowned slightly, and his heart immediately hung up: "Zhongde, do you think there is anything wrong with our arrangement?" ”

Cheng Yu shook his head and took a long breath: "Lord, one piece and one relaxation, the way of civil and martial arts, and Zilian guards the city, your arrangement is very reasonable." In today's battle, the sons and daughters suffered heavy casualties and were physically and mentally exhausted, and the athletes should indeed be allowed to rest a little during the day.

Otherwise, under the weight of fiasco and fatigue, the subordinates are only afraid that the sons and daughters will be dissatisfied and produce a series of adverse reactions! However, what the subordinates are worried about now is not the arrangement of the city father, nor how Zilian will defend the city father, but another matter! ”

Cao Cao was stunned in his heart, as if something was lingering in his mind, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't catch a trace, and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Cheng Yu turned to the northwest, looked at the distant Guan Mountain in the northeast direction and sighed: "Lord, Zhang Yan is in Jizhou Black Mountain, and it is said that he should be joining forces with Youzhou Gongsun Bogui to fight against Yuan Benchu, and he will definitely not be able to distinguish between them."

Get started. So, where did Zhang Yan's army come from? Do you really want to think that Wang Deyu said that he jumped out of the crack in the stone? ”

"Zhongde, are you saying that Yuan Highway not only colluded with Zhang Yan, but also reached some kind of agreement with Yuan Benchu? Are you worried that Yuan Benchu will be disadvantageous to our army? Cao Cao's face was suspicious, and his expression gradually became heavier.

"If Yuan Benchu is just simply colluding with Yuan Highway, his subordinates don't have to worry too much, after all, Yuan Benchu is now fighting with Gongsun Bogui in the north, and the war is extremely stalemate, and he won't be able to cut down my Yanzhou for a while."

Cheng Yu shook his head, and Yu Ban also asked, "Zhongde, since you are not worried about Yuan Benchu, then what are you worried about?" ”

Cheng Yu smiled bitterly and explained to everyone: "Lord, don't you forget that Zhang Yan's Black Mountain Army lives far away in the north, and although it is separated from Yuan Benchu's sphere of influence from us, it is also separated from the entire Yanzhou.

Yanzhou is the territory of the lord, how did Zhang Yan's tens of thousands of troops sneak to the hinterland of Yuzhou under the nose of the lord unconsciously? My lord, Wen Ze and the generals, don't you think there is a problem here? ”

Cao Cao gasped and looked at Cheng Yu in surprise, Yu Ban, Xiahou Yuan and the others also showed shock: "Are you saying that there are also people from Yuan Highway in our army, or that they are originally Yuan Highway's party?" ”

"Exactly!"

"Do you have any suspicions?"

Cheng Yu shook his chin, stroked his beard, pointed to the northeast and asked, "Lord, do you know what kind of place it is?" ”

"Where?" Cao Cao looked at the northeast direction suspiciously, where there were only faint green hills and faint city outlines, and he couldn't see anything.

Cheng Yu smiled bitterly: "My lord, Yuzhou is adjacent to Xuzhou in the east, and Xuzhou is hundreds of miles northeast of the city father, and there is a big lake named Weishan Lake in its territory, but north of Weishan Lake is Taishan County under the rule of the lord.

And the county guard Zang Ba of Taishan County and his generals Sun Guan, Wu Dun and Yin Li are not generals who have been fighting with the lord for many years, they are different from everyone here, they are the lord who only joined after falling out with Tao Gongzu! ”

"But what does that mean?"

"It's true that I can't explain anything, but you don't have to forget that they themselves are Taishan Kou, and they are inextricably linked to the Taiping Dao Yellow Turban Thief!"
