830, Cao Mengde retreated from Anguo, Zhou Dewei fought Zhang Xutuo
"Lord, General Cheng only has 2,000 soldiers and horses, and he must not be able to support it for long, and the grain and grass are afraid that they are no longer guaranteed! At this time, if you chase after you, you will have to fight hard with Xue Li, and it is better to stay in the city more securely. ”
At this time, it was Xun You who spoke, Cao Cao glanced at him, shook his head and said: "Gongda, there is no food in the city, and staying here is tantamount to sitting and waiting to die!" Do you want me to go to people's homes to grab food? Besides, Zhongde has known me for many years, how can I bear to abandon him? Zhong De has a lot of tricks, maybe he has a way to get out. ”
Everyone knew that Cao Cao's words were nothing short of whimsical, but now they really didn't have any more options; Staying in the city can indeed be worry-free for a while; But when the enemy army besieges the city on a large scale, then the city is equivalent to a tomb.
At this moment, I saw the direction of Cao Jun's camp blazing into the sky, Cao Cao sighed, he already knew the result, but he still had to stubbornly continue to move forward, just a few miles away, there were surviving soldiers of Cao Jun who came to report: Cheng Yu killed himself!
This news was already expected by Cao Cao, at this time Cao Cao's mood was difficult to fluctuate, he just slowly closed his eyes, looking at the sky-rushing fire, at this time he was very much like a moth, wanting to rush towards the firelight.
"Lord, General Cheng was killed in battle, the grain and grass were destroyed, it is useless for me to go back later, it is better to retreat to Le'an first, there may be some military rations collected from the people's homes, and they can even be used, with Zhongde's original plan, as long as we hold on until the wheat is ripe, our army can be relieved!"
Guo Jia's words are naturally the best way now, but Cao Cao's heart can't stir up the slightest wave.
Cao Cao still didn't say a word, didn't move, just stared straight into the distance, and after a while, another spy came to report quickly: "Lord, Xue Li's army is twenty miles away, and it is killing our army!" ”
Cao Xiu, who was beside Cao Cao, was also very anxious, and asked loudly: "Lord, come up with an idea!" Whether to fight or retreat, give the soldiers an order first! ”
Cao Cao sighed and said, "That's it! Retreat to Le'an first! Wait for me to re-recruit troops, and then compete with him Wu Ming! ”
With Cao Cao's order, Cao Cao's army began to retreat towards Le'anguo, but before he had taken a few steps, he suddenly heard a shout of killing, Dian Wei and Cao Xiu hurriedly guarded Cao Cao's side, looking around vigilantly.
"Where is Cao Cao's child! Zhou Zhen is here, don't get off the horse and surrender quickly! ”
This person is Zhou Dewei, who came to Dongpingling to support Yuan Shang a few days ago, and the army under his command suddenly came out, so that Cao Cao's soldiers and horses instantly fell into a panic, Cao Cao ordered loudly, and all the generals under his command also commanded together, which stabilized the formation.
"Lord, you go first, and you will stop him in the future!"
Cao Cao looked up and saw that it was Zhang Xutuo. Since Zhang Xutuo and Xiahoudun attacked Jia Fu and were killed by Wang Shouren's army, he brought the remnants of his army to Cao Cao to plead guilty. It's just that Cao Cao knew that Xiahoudun's death and the defeat of the army were beyond Zhang Xutuo's control, so he didn't punish him. Now, Zhang Xutuo took the initiative to ask for a break, and Cao Cao had no choice but to nod, if it was postponed any longer, as soon as Xue Rengui's army arrived, they would never be able to leave.
Zhang Xutuo directly led 3,000 soldiers and horses to meet Zhou Dewei's 5,000 army, but Zhou Dewei's army was still a new recruit, and it didn't go through any big battles, if it weren't for Zhou Dewei's hard training for a long time, it would not be the opponent of Zhang Xutuo's 3,000 Cao army at this time.
Zhou Dewei and Zhang Xutuo joined together, Zhang Xutuo had a strong spotted axe in his hand, and Zhou Dewei fought quite hard. But Zhang Xutuo didn't want to fight, he just wanted to quickly repel Zhou Dewei so that he could get out and join Cao Cao.
"Drop! Detected that Zhang Xutuo's skill is triggered, the forces to which he is loyal are threatened to be overturned, Force +4, Spotted Axe Force +1, and the current Zhang Xutuo Force is increased to 106."
Zhang Xutuo looked at it with an axe, Zhou Dewei couldn't eat it, and immediately fled in defeat, Zhang Xutu took the opportunity to lead the troops to retreat, but Zhou Dewei knew that this was a great opportunity to eliminate Cao Cao, and he couldn't just give up, so he continued to lead the troops to tightly entangle Zhang Xutuo's army.
"Drop! Zhou Dewei's skill insight trigger is detected - Zhou Dewei veteran, insight into the troops, when he commands the army, his own force +2, intelligence +2, command +3, the current Zhou Dewei's force is increased to 100, intelligence is increased to 91, and the command is increased to 102."
Zhou Dewei's skill trigger suddenly made Wu Liren couldn't help but exclaim, one skill, two attributes broke 100, if the system is not updated, then wouldn't it be now to explode six talents, and one must be his own.
Zhou Dewei's tight entanglement, Zhang Xutuo had no choice but to turn around and fight with Zhou Dewei again, Zhou Dewei knew that he couldn't fight Zhang Xutuo alone, so he didn't fight him head-on, but just carefully wandered in the battlefield, commanding the soldiers to besiege and kill Cao Jun, and at the same time he was constantly looking for opportunities to make trouble for Zhang Xutuo.
And Cao Cao was leading the troops at full speed at this time, and fled for more than ten miles in embarrassment, and the soldiers slowed down, at this time the sky was already slightly clear, Cao Cao looked at the surrounding environment, and suddenly laughed, which made everyone couldn't help but be curious, Dian Wei asked in confusion: "Why is the lord laughing?" ”
Cao Cao stopped smiling for a long time, pointed to the jungle above the valley and said, "I laugh at that Pang Tong is unplanned, and Tian Yu is unwise." If they plant another ambush here, our army will be rested! ”
Just as everyone was thinking about Cao Cao's words, they suddenly only heard a shout all around, and then they saw countless round stones and trees rolling down from the mountain, making Cao Cao's army suddenly cry and run around. Everyone didn't have time to think about it, and immediately escorted Cao Cao and rushed over. At this moment, I saw a group of soldiers and horses blocking the way, and the person at the head was the general under Yuan Shang.
"Where to go, stay alive!"
With an order, he rushed for a while with thousands of soldiers and horses, and at this time, Cao Xiu took the only two thousand tigers and leopards to temporarily take on the task of interception.
Cao Cao walked more than ten miles, looking at the soldiers under his command all with embarrassed faces, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, but after taking a look here, he couldn't help laughing, which caused everyone to be inexplicably frightened.
"Why is the lord laughing this time?" This time it was Li Dian who asked.
Cao Cao let out a long sigh of relief, and then pointed to the forest and said, "I laugh at Yuan Shang and Xue Li who don't know the location." If they hide the things that cause fire here in advance, once our army passes by here and ignites it, then this summer is windy, and the wind fuels the fire, and our army will have a way to live? ”
Thinking of what happened just now, Li Dian couldn't help but sigh at this time: "The lord just laughed and attracted an ambush, this time he laughed again, will it be ......?"
