Chapter 997: 20,000 recruits scattered and fled

It's just that Wang Cai didn't expect that Zhao Hui was not careless because of the 10,000 Cao troops gathered in the west of the city.

He thought that Zhao Hui had not prepared for his sneak attack, but in the barracks, Guo Jia and Pei Yuanshao had already been waiting for him.

The remaining 10,000 Zhao troops had already finished arranging, standing silently in front of the camp, waiting for Wang Cai's 2,000 people to come and send them to death.

"Strategist, the enemy army is out of the city."

Wang Cai went out of the city here, and immediately a detective horse quickly returned to the camp to report to Guo Jiayu.

Since Zhao Hui dared to take Zhao Yundianwei away, he naturally believed that even if Cao Jun attacked the camp, the rest of the people would be able to block it.

In Cao's army, there are not many famous generals left.

Even if Zhao Hui is here, only Pei Yuanshao is left, and Zhao Hui is not worried.

After all, there is already preparation.

10,000 elite soldiers, definitely not 20,000 rabble can sneak attack.

West.

Zhao Hui and Dian Wei Zhao Yun have already appeared outside the city gate.

But the gate on the west side of the city was not opened.

"Cao Apu, don't you dare to come out?" Zhao Hui shouted loudly outside the city.

Although it was separated by the city wall, Xiahoudun inside heard it, and the sound was not blurred at all.

"Zhao Hui, why don't you let people live, why do you have to kill them all?" Xiahoudun replied.

"I don't have to kill them all, as long as you surrender, I promise not to kill a single person." Zhao Hui said.

"Zhao Hui, do you think I will believe you? How many people have died at your hands? Hurry back and go, you're outside the city, and I won't go out. Xiahou said.

At this time, Xiahoudun didn't care whether the morale in the army would be lowered because of his words.

Although these 10,000 people are veterans, there is really no morale anymore.

"If you come out and surrender now, you can save a life, and wait until tomorrow, it's hard to say."

Across the city wall, he shouted a few words to Xiahoudun, and Zhao Hui did not plan to attack at night.

He's guarding here.

"My lord, there are a large number of enemy troops in the north of the city who have left the city and gone straight to the camp." A probe horse rushed in front of Zhao Hui.

"Is it really a plan to divert the tiger from the mountain?"

Zhao Hui did not retreat immediately.

"Send a few men and climb the walls to take a look."

Only on the west side of the city, 10,000 Cao troops are still there, and Zhao Hui will not leave.

It may be that the tiger is transferred from the mountain, it may be transferred from the north of the city to the west of the city, but it is also possible that Zhao Hui is transferred from the west of the city back to the north of the city.

As soon as Zhao Hui's 10,000 people left, the Cao army in the city might rush out immediately.

On the city wall, there is also Cao Jun, but he only came to observe Zhao Hui outside the city, and the number is not large.

Xiahoudun was going out of the city, and the army of 10,000 was now on the streets inside the city gate.

There were not many Cao troops on the city wall, and Zhao Hui's men climbed up at the corner. And then it came down very quickly.

"Cao Jun is still inside."

"Keep watching."

Since Cao Jun was still behind the door, Zhao Hui would keep blocking until dawn.

Even if the other 20,000 Cao troops went to the camp in the north, Zhao Hui was not worried.

Soon, there was news from a horse outside the northern city.

Wang Cai had already led 20,000 Cao troops to fight against Pei Yuanshao, who was left behind.

It's just that Wang Cai's expected momentum did not appear.

He led 20,000 recruits and rushed into the Zhao army camp, and was immediately attacked by Pei Yuanshao.

These recruits, if the sneak attack is really successful, they may be able to rush to kill with high morale.

But now that I look at it, I understand that their sneak attack failed, and Zhao Jun has been prepared for a long time.

Then, it was defeated.

Even if Wang Cai shouted desperately, and even gave orders, he retreated and killed.

He himself even drew his sword and killed several Cao soldiers who were about to escape.

But the situation is getting more and more chaotic.

The 20,000 Cao army was originally a new recruit, and he was not familiar with night battles.

In the dark night, he was shocked by Pei Yuanshao and his people, and he was dizzy, and he didn't know the southeast and northwest.

Even though the king had told them that the enemy was not as numerous as theirs, the recruits were running around like headless flies.

No matter what orders the king gave him, it was of no avail, and no one would listen to his orders at all.

In the dark night, 20,000 Cao troops scattered and fled.

Even Wang Cai, at this moment, he didn't know whether he was using the spear in his hand to kill the fleeing friendly soldiers, or rushing over to kill the enemy army.

One by one, Cao Jun ran past Wang Cai.

The 10,000 people behind him had already turned around and fled.

It's just a stunned god, Pei Yuanshao has already killed in front of him.

In the dark night, Wang Cai had not yet determined whether it was a friendly army or an enemy army that rushed over, and he was beheaded by Pei Yuanshao.

In less than half an hour of fighting, the 20,000 Cao troops who came out with Wang Cai had all been wiped out.

As soon as the battle began, the 20,000 Cao troops fled.

In the dark night, Pei Yuanshao could only follow the pursuit of the enemy's large army, and those who fled in all directions basically picked up a life.

The number of people killed by Zhao Jun was small.

There were only 20,000 people, and less than 5,000 fled back to the city.

There are nearly 10,000 people, and I don't know where to go.

According to the plan, Pei Yuanshao did not chase into the city, worried that Cao Jun would still have an ambush in the city.

When you enter the city, it is not easy to get out.

After this battle, after dawn tomorrow, there will be no more obstacles, and entering the city is already inevitable, and there is no need to venture into it at night.

Inside the city!

Cao Cao and Xun Youmanzhong and others met, some brought their families, and some did not.

Everyone rode on warhorses.

"Go and inform Xiahoudun that you can open the city."

Cao Cao sent a lieutenant general to Xiahoudun, but he himself took the little emperor and headed towards the south of the city, not to the west of the city.

"Cao Gong, this road is to the south of the city." Cheng Yu said.

"I know." Cao Cao nodded.

"There is no way to go west of the city, Zhao Hui's army is now in the west of the city, and when we go out, we are throwing ourselves into the net."

The group quickly ran towards the south of the city.

And at this time, the battle in the north of the city was not over.

In the west of the city, after Xiahoudun received the order, he immediately ordered the city gate to be opened, and then took 10,000 veterans and killed them.

"The gates of the city are opened."

Zhao Hui, who had been guarding outside, kept staring at the city gate, and from time to time he climbed up the city wall to take a look.

"Kill!"

Zhao Hui was a little surprised, he didn't expect that he was already guarding outside, and the people in the city really dared to rush out.

A torch to light up the battlefield.

Zhao Hui and Dian Wei Zhao Yun were three fierce generals, and at the same time they killed the Cao army that rushed out.

And they did not rush into the city, but kept the gates of the city and slew them.

Kill as many people as you come out.

The battlefield on the west side of the city is much more tragic than that in the north of the city.

In just a moment, the casualties were chasing the battlefield north of the city.

At this time, the battle in the north of the city was over, and the remaining Cao army fled to the city.

Neither Xiahoudun nor Cao Cao was giving orders to the recruits who had fled.

Whether they come back or not, they have already been given up by Cao Cao.

Not only those recruits, but also the 10,000 veterans in the west of the city at this moment were also abandoned by Cao Cao.

Zhao Hui was blocked outside, and Cao Cao couldn't rush out with them.

If he wanted to leave Xudu, he could only leave through another city gate.
