Chapter 302: Yi Cheng broke Yuan Cao to fight

When Yuan Shu received Liu Xun's news, he didn't care about letting Liu Xun continue to defend Shu County.

After Liu Xun received the reply, he also continued to stick to Shu County.

Then turn to Yicheng County.

After Cao Cao learned that Sun Ce and Liu Biao had raised troops, he finally attacked Yicheng County.

After half a month of fierce fighting, the 30,000 soldiers under Ji Ling's command were still a little irresistible after all, after all, Cao Cao took Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Le Jin, Cao Chun, Cao Zhen, Cao Xiu, Xiahou Yuan, Zang Ba, Sun Guan this time, plus the resourcefulness of Xun You, Mao Jue and Chen Deng, it was not bad that Ji Ling was able to rely on the terrain for nearly a month.

When Cao Cao saw that Ji Ling was about to lose his grip on Yicheng County, he immediately shouted: "Le Jin listens to the order and orders you to climb the city tower and take down Yicheng." ”

"The last general obeys!"

After receiving the order, Le Jin quickly followed Cao's soldiers across the moat and climbed the tower.

When Ji Ling, who commanded on the city tower, saw that the Cao army was constantly climbing the city tower, he also personally went into battle to block the attack of the Cao army, but unfortunately, the soldiers of Yuan were already exhausted, and the Cao army had an army of 80,000 after all, and they could cultivate at any time.

Besides, after Le Jin took the risk to climb the city tower of Yicheng County, he immediately killed in the Yuan army and covered the Cao army's ascension.

With Lejin taking cover in the city, Cao Jun is also constantly accumulating advantages.

When Ji Ling saw that there were more and more people in Cao Jun's city, he finally failed to hold Yicheng County.

Immediately, Ji Ling immediately ordered to withdraw towards Dangtu County.

Le Jin saw that Yuan's army was beginning to rout, and he immediately sent someone to open the city gate.

Cao Cao saw that the city gate had been opened, and he immediately led his troops into Yicheng County.

After Cao's army completely pacified Yicheng County, Cao Cao immediately gathered his ministers and divided his troops into two routes.

One route was personally led by Cao Cao to attack along the route of Dangtu-Xiquyang-Shouchun; The other road was led by Xiahou Yuan to attack along the route of Ping'a-Xiacai-Shouchun.

When Ji Ling fled to Dangtu County, the soldiers and horses led by Cao Cao himself also chased and killed.

In desperation, Ji Ling had no choice but to continue to flee to Shouchun.

Two days later.

Ji Ling finally fled back to Shouchun and met Yuan Shu in person.

When Yuan Shu saw Ji Ling in the court, he was shocked and asked, "Ji Ling, why did you come back?" What about Yicheng County? ”

"Your Majesty, Yicheng County has been broken by Cao Cao!"

"What?"

Immediately, Ji Ling told the story of the battle.

When Yuan Shu learned that Cao Cao had raised 80,000 troops to attack Shouchun, he immediately said to his ministers: "Ladies and gentlemen, Cao's army is menacing, how should I deal with it next?" ”

At this time, Yang Hong said to Yuan Shu: "Your Majesty, the high walls of Shouchun City are deep and protected by a moat, although the Cao army has 80,000 people but it is difficult to supply, the minister proposes that our army gather all the troops to Shouchun to hold on, and within half a year, the Cao army will retreat." ”

After hearing this, Yuan Shu asked the ministers again if they had any different opinions.

Seeing this, Lu Bu immediately stood up and asked: "Your Majesty, it won't take half a year to repel the Cao army, as long as the Cao army dares to come, the last general will repel the Cao army here." ”

When Yuan Shu saw Lu Bu stand up and ask for help, he also pondered, because Yuan Shu also wanted to fight Cao Cao.

But in the end, Yuan Shu did not agree with Lu Bu's words, because Yuan Shu was still a little suspicious of Lu Bu.

Immediately, Yuan Shu began to gather troops to Shouchun according to Yang Hong's words.

After Yuan Shu gathered 70,000 soldiers and horses in Shouchun, Cao's two soldiers and horses finally killed Shouchun.

Then, Cao Cao and Xiahou Yuan also went down to the village outside the east gate and the north gate of Shouchun respectively.

When Yuan Shu learned that Cao Jun had actually appeared outside the two city gates, he immediately felt that this was a good opportunity, because he had already gathered 70,000 troops in Shouchun.

Immediately after, Yuan Shu immediately summoned the ministers and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, the Cao army actually surrounded Shouchun in two ways, and I plan to go out of the east gate to meet Cao Cao, I don't know what you think?" ”

Hearing this, all the generals were eager to try, but several strategists tried their best to dissuade them, after all, Yuan Shujun's combat effectiveness was obviously weak.

After Yuan Shu glanced at the ministers, he finally decided to send troops to meet the battle, because as long as the Cao army was repulsed, Liu Biao, Sun Ce, and Wang Kai's soldiers and horses would not have to worry.

The generals were quite happy to see that Yuan Shu had made up his mind to fight, but several strategists were sad, because perseverance was the king, after all, in addition to Cao Jun, there were other princes of the three roads that could not be underestimated.

After Yuan Shu made up his mind, he quickly gathered his 50,000 troops and came out of the east gate.

The entourage included Lu Bu, Ji Ling, Xun Zheng, Qiao Rui, Liang Gang, Li Feng, Han Yin, and Le Zhi and Lei Ji stayed in the city to monitor Cao Jun at the north gate.

Besides, when Cao Cao learned that Yuan Shu actually raised troops out of the city, he also quickly took his subordinates Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Cao Chun, Le Jin, Cao Zhen, Cao Xiu, Xun You, and Mao Jue to set up a formation.

After the two armies were arrayed, Cao Cao also took Dian Wei and Xu Chu out on horseback.

Then, Cao Cao shouted at Yuan Shu: "Yuan Highway, you are also a famous family, I never thought that you would be so rebellious and claim to be the emperor in vain!" Today, my army of thieves has arrived, why don't you hurry up and arrest it? ”

After Yuan Shu heard Cao Cao's shout, he immediately replied: "Cao Apu, who in the world doesn't know that you coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, what is the difference between what you do and me?" It's just that I have the guts, but you don't. ”

Cao Cao was furious when he heard this.

Immediately, Cao Cao immediately shouted: "Who is going to take the head of the rebel?" ”

"The last will go!"

As soon as the words fell, Xu Chu rode out.

Xun Zheng on Yuan Shu's side saw that Xu Chu had killed, and he immediately rode out and killed him.

But it's a pity that Xun Zheng is not Xu Chu's enemy at all.

Li Feng saw that his friend Xun Zheng was dead, and he immediately went out to kill Xu Chu.

Seeing this, Xu Zhu still killed Li Feng within one combination.

When Yuan Shu saw that the generals on Cao Jun's side were so powerful, he finally had to call Lu Bu's name.

When Lu Bu saw that Yuan Shu still had to rely on himself, he immediately rode out and killed Xu Chu.

When Xu Chu saw Lu Bu attacking, he immediately fought with him.

After the two fought lily, Cao Cao and Yuan Shu issued a military order to charge the battle at the same time.

As the soldiers of the two armies launched a charge, the Cao army and the Yuan army also fought fiercely.

In the chaotic battle, Han Yin was taken off his head by Dian Wei again.

After Yuan Shu learned that Han Yin had died in battle again, he immediately regretted sending troops to fight a decisive battle.

In the end, Yuan Shu fled back to the city in embarrassment under the cover of Lu Bu.

In the end, there were only more than 30,000 people left of the 50,000 army that Yuan Shu brought out of the city, and Cao's side won a small victory.

After Yuan Shu was defeated by Cao Cao, he immediately ordered the city gate to be closed and no longer to fight.

When Cao Cao saw that Yuan Jun had become a shrunken turtle after entering the city, he also had a headache.

Besides, after Yuan Shu retreated to Shouchun City, he immediately ordered Chen Ji, who was stationed in Lu'an County, to lead an army back to Shouchun.

At the same time, Yuan Shu also sent an order to Yuan Lian, the Taishou of Runan.

Turn to the side of Shu County.

After Wen Ping forcibly attacked Bukeshu County, he immediately sent someone to invite Wang Kai to help.

After Wang Kai received the letter from Wen Ping, he also raised troops and rushed to Shu County after weighing the pros and cons.
