Cao Cao's harassment made Ji Ling very annoyed, but it was not easy to attack.

Crossing the river is absolutely impossible, crossing the river is equivalent to going deep into the Zhao region, and if we cannot quickly achieve victory and then withdraw to the south of the Yellow River, we will definitely provoke a full-scale war.

Although Yuan Shu attacked Chen Liu, he had no intention of all-out war, his purpose was to "settle the outside must first settle the inside", clean up the traitors such as Zhang Miao, Kong Rong, and Qiao Mao first, and completely control Yan and Qing in their hands.

After a few days of confrontation across the Yellow River, Ji Ling only felt anxious, and every extra day indicated that the Zhao army had one more day of preparation time, and a little more possibility for the Zhao army's large army to go south, and it would be difficult to clean up Chen Liuzhang Miao at that time.

If it weren't for Yuan Shao's indecisiveness, the army would have already arrived in Guandu, and several days have passed, and the Zhao army has not yet come to help, which is already a miracle.

On the south bank of the Yellow River, Ji Ling and Zhang Xun led their subordinates to stand on the edge of the Yellow River, looking at the calm face of the Jinyi Guard Lieutenant beside them, they were so anxious that they jumped to their feet.

"Report!"

The herald crawled towards Ji Ling, shouting as he ran:

"Chen Liu's urgent report!"

Ji Ling stepped forward quickly, snatched the letter, opened it and looked at it, and his face immediately turned white.

The letter was asked by Zhang Xun again, and after the two generals read it, their faces became extremely ugly, and they were about to hand the letter to the commander of Jinyiwei, but they were rejected by the captain.

"I also have this kind of information, looking at the faces of the two, it must be the news that the Qi army besieging Chen Liu has been defeated!"

It's really this news, Chen Gong led Wei Zi, Dian Wei and Zhang Miao's generals Zang Hong, Liu Yi, Dong Wan, and Chen Rong, and Chen Rong raised 10,000 of Chen's remaining garrisons, and feinted to attack the Le Qiang Department outside the city, Chen Lan hurriedly came to help, fell into the trap of Chen Gong, and Chen Lan's troops were defeated.

Chen Gong drove Chen Lan's troops to attack the camp of the Lezhuo Department, and took Weizi and Dian Wei as the vanguard to break through the camp of the Lezhuo Department.

I didn't know that the chase was too fierce, and the foot soldiers led by Chen Gong, who was already running back and forth, fighting with Chen Lan and Le in a row, and were physically exhausted, were left behind, and in turn fell into Le Zhu's ambush.

Hundreds of cavalry were lost.

Without cavalry, everyone is running on their legs, where can the infantry led by Chen Gong, who already consumes more physical strength, catch up, and dare to continue to chase.

More than 10,000 Qi troops escaped outside the city, and more than 5,000 men and horses were lost.

Le is now stationed thirty miles away from Chenliu, monitoring and containing Chenliu's defenders, and it is difficult to form an encirclement situation.

In other words, Ji Ling and they may be attacked at any time.

Why didn't the other party know this news without looking at the intelligence, indicating that the other party already knew about it before meeting by the river, or guessed it.

But there is no time to pursue and lament any more.

"Captain! Now that we are under the enemy, we don't know if there is a good solution? ”

Ji Ling gritted his teeth when he said this, if it weren't for the fact that the general position of Chu officers was not as widespread as the captain, lieutenant, and lieutenant general in previous years, the lieutenant would still remain the second senior military officer in the entire Chu army.

Compared with the Zhonglang General of the Qi Army, Ji Ling, who is a general, has already had a superior status.

The Captain of the Jinyi Guard was not angry:

"Don't worry! Against Cao Cao, you have to calm down, and now there are top masterminds Chen Gong and top general Dian Wei, so you can't be in a hurry, it's easy to make mistakes if you're too anxious. ”

Well, Ji Ling really wanted to strangle him, and then led an army of 90,000 to push Cao Cao's 10,000 people.

It's a pity that there is the Yellow River in the way, and it is easy to be hit by a half-crossing, and it may not be useful if there are many people at that time.

Seeing that Zhang Xun was about to have a seizure, Captain Jinyi Wei no longer pretended to be high, and attached to Ji Ling's ear:

"Let's do it tonight! Cao Cao first, then Chen Palace! We ...... It's ...... like this."

Ji Ling's eyes lit up, causing Zhang Xun and the others, who couldn't hear it, to scratch their hearts.

——

The sunset and the moon rise, the slow glimmer of light illuminating the earth was a nightmare for the Qi army, who were mostly night blind and on the march.

"The one in front of you is a puddle, let's go around!"

"Stay tuned! Don't get lost! ”

Leading the way in front were a small number of Chu troops, and the abundant seafood provided them with endless meat, and night blindness had long been cured.

In addition to 10,000 of the Qi army left behind on the south bank, 80,000 troops were dispatched, but fortunately, the Chu army not only had more people but also more boats, helping them to smuggle across the Yellow River at night, and 10,000 Chu troops led the way and marched at night.

The 90,000 army did not carry torches, and silently touched Cao Cao's camp, thinking that it was well hidden, but it was still discovered.

Cao Cao's camp was isolated and protected by a wooden fence, and horses and ditches were arranged outside the fence, and arrow towers were built inside the fence to be used as fortifications.

"Who!"

On the arrow tower, a Zhao Jun shouted at the shadow in the night.

"Whoosh~"

A shout was exchanged for dozens of feathered arrows shooting at him.

"Uh~ah~"

The sound of Zhao Jun's screams woke up his companions.

"Dangdang~"

"Enemy attack!"

The sound of bangzi resounded in the Zhao army camp, and Cao Cao, who couldn't sleep, turned over and sat up, and rushed out of the camp:

"What's going on with Zilian?"

"Enemy attack!"

Cao Hong, who was guarding outside the tent, reminded him.

"Inform the generals, step up the gathering of troops, and organize the defense!"

"No!"

Saying that, Cao Cao carried the Yitian Sword and rushed in the direction where there was already the sound of fighting.

"Puff~"

It was too dark at night, Xiao was his Cao Cao's brocade clothes and food, there was no night blindness, and he was also tripped over a stone in a hurry.

"Light the torch! Light the campfire! ”

In the camp, Zhao Jun lit a fire, which was full of torches, mixed with a bonfire that had been reserved for emergency lighting, and for a time the north bank of the Yellow River was like daylight.

Rushing to the place of battle, Cao Cao, who climbed the arrow tower, finally saw clearly the people who were attacking the enemy, Zhao Zhijunqi, Ji Zhishuai Qi, as well as Li, Lei and other generals, indicating their identities.

"How did the Qi army suddenly descend on the north shore?"

Xiahoudun, who rushed to the side, suddenly found some different figures in Zhao Junzhong, and pointed over: "Red, yellow, white and blue, inlaid with red, yellow, white and blue, Meng De!" It's the Eight Banners of the Chu Army! ”

"What? Chu Jun! ”

Cao Cao almost didn't sit on the ground, and he didn't expect that he, a small warlord, would actually lead the two armies of Zhao and Chu to jointly dispatch.

Cao Cao deserved to be Cao Cao, but he recovered from his collapsed state in the blink of an eye and reacted quickly.

"Xiahou Xuan, Xiahou Shang, Cao Hong, Cao Chun, Yu Ban, you quickly go to find out the number of enemy troops!"

As if in response to Cao Cao, the camp suddenly Zhao Jun suddenly lit torches, and the torches of heaven and earth told Cao Cao that the number of opponents was so large that even if he climbed high and looked far away, even if it was a flat river, he could not see the end of the torches.

And from the fact that the torches are moving, it can be seen that these are real armies.

"Stop! Don't go! Gathering! What are we going to do! ”

It was not only Cao Cao who found that the number of enemy troops was large, almost all the Zhao troops found that the enemy army ten times their own was still sneak attack at night, just relying on a wooden fence, can they win?
