Chapter 109: Hunt and Kill! Hunt down again!
The rout of the army is like beans scattered, sparse and sprinkled;
Yuan Shu was defeated, he rode his mount and fled in embarrassment, and there were less than 10,000 people following him behind him, thinking about the majestic scene of the previous army of more than 100,000 people, Yuan Shu felt bitter in his heart, and now he still doesn't understand why he was defeated!
Is there not many soldiers and horses? Is the tactics wrong? Neither! It's that their hearts are not strong enough!
Yuan Shu sent a letter to Ji Ling, who was stationed in Nanyang County and fighting Liu Biao, and ran towards his territory in a hurry;
In the Sealed Hill City···
Li Yu almost collapsed to the ground, "Hey, hey~~~!" After laughing nervously, Li Yu: "Good at learning!" Help me up! ”
"Yes! Mr! Qu Jiang's personal guard is really good, he followed Li Yu all the way to the city wall, blocking in front of Li Yu, very brave; Holding up the fatigue on his body, Qu Jiang helped Li Yu up with difficulty;
"Alas! Call! Li Yu stood up and panted repeatedly: "Hahaha! Yuan Shu is defeated! Yanzhou saved! ”
"Whoa! Haha~~~", Xiahoudun trotted all the way to Li Yu and gasped: "Sir! Yuan Shu's army has been defeated by us, and there is no longer their army in the city, what should we do next? ”
In the end, it is a military general with superior force, and after a little rest, Xiahoudun will become energetic, and he will discuss the next move with Li Yu without waist pain or panting!
"You're the chief general in the army, can't you handle this thing?" , Li Yu seems to be a little annoyed, but he has always been optimistic about Xiahoudun, and is committed to cultivating him as a coach and making him a handsome talent, not this kind of military general who can only use his hands and not his brains!
"Tell me about it! What's next for us? Li Yu eased his tone and said;
"Hmmm... Yuan Shubing has many generals, sufficient food and grass, he will reconvene the men and horses to come back again if he is defeated this time, we should use Fengqiu as a pillbox, stick to the city, and wait for rear support! Xiahoudun thought for a while, and said cautiously, as soon as he looked at Li Yu's frowning eyebrows, he knew that his trick didn't seem to work;
Sure enough, Li Yu shook his head again and again: "Since you know that Yuan Shu will come back if he doesn't die, you have to chase and kill him in one go, and he won't dare to come again!" Don't give him time to get his hands on it! Drive him out of the land of Yuzhou in one fell swoop! ”
"But... Now the soldiers and horses are tired, and they are not suitable for marching! Xiahoudun said hesitantly;
"We are tired, they are even more tired! I can't do it, I don't have that strength, you personally select 5,000 soldiers and horses, and chase down Yuan Shu as fast as possible! Tell the brethren! The key to victory or defeat is already in their hands, and let them figure out for themselves what to do! Li Yu patted Xiahoudun on the shoulder: "Yuan Rang!" If you win this battle, you will be the first to win! Hey, hey, hey! ”
"Got it! Mr! Xiahou dun arched his hand, and left from here, selecting soldiers and chasing Yuan Shu!
·········· Dividing line
Sour jujube··· Cao Jun Battalion···
"My lord! General Xu has been gone for two days, and I think this matter is enough to choke! Zang Hong, who woke up, walked back and forth impatiently;
Cao Cao's heart was also troubled, "Dangdang!" There was a knock on the table, and the other people in the big tent also had serious faces and a dull atmosphere...
After a long time, Cao Cao stood up: "Time waits for no one!" Send someone to find General Xu! If it doesn't work, then come hard! Kill them and return to Xuchang! Rescue the Xiahoudun Ministry! The congregation will obey the order! ”
Cao Cao's order was interrupted as soon as it was halfway through, and the soldiers in the camp seemed to be in some commotion, and there was a faint sound of cheers, and Cao Cao shouted: "What happened? Why the commotion? ”
Brother Hua Xiong stood up: "I'll take a look!" Before the words fell, the cheers outside became louder, and they could hear clearly what was being shouted;
"Good news! Good news! Yuan Shu is defeated! Yuan Shu is defeated! ”
"Boom!" , Cao Cao suddenly felt as if his head had been smashed by a sledgehammer, not only him, but all the generals in the tent were the same; stayed for a long time, and then Cao Cao shouted like crazy: "Where did the news come from?" Get someone for me, I'm going to ask me face to face! ”
That's the elite of the 100,000 Yuan Shu army that held on to the city, twice as much as their own! Xiahoudun and Li Yu won?
"General! Yuan Shutun's army was in Fengqiu, and General Xiahoudun listened to Mr. Huaide's strategy, seized the opportunity, and took advantage of Yuan Shu's unpreparedness to attack Fengqiu City, and fought fiercely with it for a day and a night, breaking through the city! Yuan Shu fled in the wilderness! Our army beheaded more than 20,000 people, captured more than 30,000 prisoners, and captured countless soldiers, horses, grain and grass! A herald under the tent told about the attack and defense of Fengqiu, which seemed to be a few words, but it could make Cao Cao think of the danger;
"After! Mr. Huaide suggested that the soldiers and horses should not rest and rush to chase Yuan Shu, and General Xiahoudun led the army to chase after him in the starry night, and fought with him in Kuangting, and Yuan Shu was defeated again. Yuan Shu retired to Yongqiu, and returned to Shouchun in the south! General Xiahoudun withdrew his troops! Yuan Shu, who was killed in this battle, lost his armor and even lost the sword on his body! We've picked it up! Just in time for the general! ”
The herald pulled out a long strip of linen wrapped in linen from behind his back, raised his hands above the top, Cao Cao rolled up his sleeves, reached out and grabbed Yuan Shu's saber, and laughed: "Okay! Good! Good! He couldn't think of any adjectives to vent his excitement except admiration;
"I'm a good girl! Are you sure it's a siege? Brother Hua Xiong was stunned, if Xiahoudun and Li Yu defeated Yuan Shujun in the field battle, they would not be so gaffe, but it was a siege battle!
What is Siege Warfare? With the graves of dead soldiers, giant meat grinders, and no three or five times the strength of the enemy, how easy is it to take the city? What's more, the number of soldiers and horses is even less than that of the other party! Could it be that Yuan Shu is a pig? Or has our army become heavenly soldiers?
The herald was a little annoyed, and his face turned red: "The general Hugh wants to question!" There is also Yuan Shuzhongjun Daxu we brought outside, what did this matter do? ”
"Hey, hey!" , Brother Hua Xiong scratched his hair: "Aren't I too surprised!" How can I doubt General Yuan Rang and Mr. Huaide! ”
Only then did the herald change his face and salute: "Don't blame the general, our army has been fighting fiercely for several days in this battle, and more than half of the brothers have suffered casualties... Even Mr. Wynder personally participated in the siege... That's how I won...", choking sadly, the herald's eyes were red;
Cao Cao also recovered from the great joy, which in itself was an unequal battle, and he had thought of the worst outcome, but he had not thought of the best outcome—they had won; While winning, the price is also heavy!
Cao Cao said solemnly to the heralds: "You take a rest first, and then go back and tell your brothers that I, Cao Cao, have nothing to give them now, but please remember that today's achievements, Cao Cao will remember for the rest of his life, definitely!" Certain! Will definitely remember! ”
