"Woo ......"

The desolate sound of the horn echoed in the mountains and rivers, meant to demonstrate against the enemy and boost morale, but in this situation, it sounded more like an elegy.

Que Xuan was late.

Que Xuan was dumbfounded.

Cao Bao guessed correctly, he was good at hiding himself, and Chen Deng, who was wise enough to protect himself, did leave before the war. was preempted by Cao Bao, and Que Xuan was indeed very popular.

But he can't help it, it's true that the Que family is a local tyrant, but compared with Cao Bao, a powerful man with an official background, his army is still insufficient. Cao Bao's army has many ships and a high degree of organization, and when the two armies march together, they don't feel anything, and when they suddenly exert their strength, Que Xuan can only reach the dust.

Since he couldn't win, he simply didn't even run, followed behind slowly, made up his mind to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and then go to pick up a bargain.

According to his prediction, Wang Yu should not have a head-on confrontation with Cao Bao, and even if he did, he would soon be defeated. When Wang Yu was defeated, he accelerated forward to capture Tancheng.

Therefore, he changed the route of his march, crossed the river at the shallows, moved from the east bank of Shushui to the west bank, and sent a large number of scouts to reconnoiter the situation on the battlefield.

At the beginning, when he heard the news that the Qingzhou Army was fighting fiercely with Cao Bao, he was so happy that he almost didn't fall off the soft sedan chair. Although the Buddhists pay attention to not being angry or angry, but he has never been able to let go of the fact that Cao Bao was one step ahead, and when he heard Cao Bao and Wang Yu beat you to death, he couldn't close his mouth with a smile.

Fight, fight, fight until the sky is dark, and the blood will flow like a river! It's best if both of them die together, so that I can wake up smiling in my dreams for years to come.

Que Xuan immediately ordered to slow down the march, thinking about waiting until the two sides were almost done. Let's clean up the mess again. If it is said that the marching speed of Que Xuanjun before hearing the news was already about the same as that of a turtle, after hearing the news, the marching speed of Que Xuanjun's army can only be compared with a snail.

But Que Xuan's leisurely didn't last long, and soon, as a strange arrow from somewhere on the east coast exploded in the sky, the battle situation ahead changed drastically!

When he heard the latest information that Zhao Yun's light cavalry was prominent, and Cao Bao's army could not raise its head with the cavalry and archery method, Que Xuan's face became iron-blue;

After getting the news that there was a large-scale rout of Cao Bao's army. Que Xuan's face gradually darkened;

Before he could change his strategy, the Iron Cavalry of the Hidden Mist Army cameo was also killed...... At that time, Que Xuan, the son of heaven, began to turn purple, and his eyes became even greener.

Throughout the ages, there have been many brilliant men who have fought with their allies. Turning his lips and teeth shuddering. Dead Daoists do not die in poor Dao, and by the way, they will receive the wealth and land of Daoist friends together, which is the highest expectation of wise men, including Que Xuan, for their allies.

The vast majority of them have failed, and have become a lesson for future generations to learn from, and few have succeeded. But people are self-centered, while laughing at losers. They are often more willing to put themselves in the position of successful people, and Que Xuan is like this.

It is conceivable when he realizes that his trajectory. When you start to coincide with the loser, how hard the blow will be.

Of course, Que Xuan is not an ordinary person after all. After an initial discouragement, he quickly picked himself up again. Immediately gave a decisive order, abandoned the baggage, marched with all his strength, and went straight to the battlefield of Maling Mountain!

The situation was chaotic, but his train of thought was not chaotic.

After all, Cao Bao's army is not made of mud, and even if the Qingzhou army wins, it is impossible to be unscathed. What's more, in order to completely eliminate the threat of Cao Bao, the Qingzhou army had to launch at least a certain scale of pursuit.

This is his chance!

After the hard battle, the physical strength of the Qingzhou army should be almost exhausted, and if the formation is chaotic in the pursuit, it will definitely not be the opponent of its long-standing army of five thousand.

Since he was a child, he has been cultivated by his family as a future star, and Que Xuan's insight is not bad, and his grasp of opportunities is also very sophisticated. But the problem is that he chose the wrong opponent, and he met Wang Yu, who is more sophisticated, or should be described as a demon.

In fact, as early as the beginning of the war, Wang Yu took Que Xuan into consideration. To be precise, the premise for Wang Yu to dare to face the battle is that the two armies look like each other and cannot work together.

If Que and Cao really worked together to attack the city first and then fight a decisive battle according to Chen Jue's plan, then Wang Yu could only choose to retreat. Courage comes first in battle, but courage is not omnipotent, with 4,000 soldiers and horses facing off against an army of 20,000 and winning? Unless the enemy is a rabble like the Yellow Turbans.

The ringing arrow was sent by the scout after seeing Que Xuan crossing the river. After crossing the river, it was difficult for Que Xuan to join the war group in time, even if he rushed to Tancheng and wanted to launch an attack on the Qingzhou army, he had to cross the river again. And there are no shoals near Tancheng, just how to find the ferry boat is enough for Que Xuan to have a headache.

After deciding the winner, Wang Yu ordered to stop the pursuit and surrender with all his might, also out of this consideration.

So, when Que Xuan arrived at the battlefield, what he saw was a scene that made him stunned and regretful.

The allies were completely defeated, lost their weapons, and the soldiers lying on the ground were in pieces, while the Qingzhou army only divided hundreds of men and horses to collect the soldiers, and they didn't even take weapons in their hands, so they shouted and shouted, gathering hundreds of soldiers into a team and leaving the battlefield.

The main force of Qingzhou, less than 2,000 foot soldiers, plus more than 1,000 cavalry, was waiting for a serious battle, and they didn't look at the soldiers behind them, but just watched Que Xuanjun's every move.

And between the two armies, it is the water that flows southward......

"Your Majesty, what should I do?" Que Si, who used to be a housekeeper and a host for a while, and now a general in the army, raised questions about the future.

"......" Que Xuan was at a loss and couldn't answer.

What to do? Cold!

There is a big river blocking the way, and there are not enough ferries, and there are even more tiger and wolf armies waiting to cross the road......

If you don't change your route, it's okay, even if you can't catch up with the surprise attack, you can still collect a lot of routs, now? can only watch, there is no chance to pick up a cheap one.

There is still a city to fight on this side of the river, which is exactly what Que Xuan had previously targeted.

But at this time and that time, if Wang Yu is defeated, Tancheng can be won without much effort, but now, under the influence of Wang Yu's crazy victory over Cao Bao, the morale of the defenders of Tancheng must have exploded. Que Xuan's 5,000 soldiers were reluctant to launch a strong attack on two city walls at the same time, how could they be able to capture this big city? What's more, the Qingzhou Army is still there, and they have a lot of ships......

If you don't fight, you can only go, but the problem is that it's not so easy to go.

Just now, for the sake of the rapid march, he threw all the extra baggage on the road, and now he only brought a few days of dry food, which is not enough to eat on the road. The bigger problem is still in the Qingzhou Army, Que Xuan is not stupid, he doesn't think Wang Yu is a fool, the other party will definitely not watch him retreat.

The Qingzhou army has cavalry and a naval army, and it may be a little difficult to swallow yourself in one bite, but as long as you harass along the way and delays the trip, it won't take a few days, and the army will run out of food, so you can only let it be slaughtered......

The more Que Xuan thought about it, the more scared he became, how could he not have thought that he rushed to pick up the bargain, why did he suddenly crash into a dead end? That's too much of a contrast, isn't it?

Sweat trickled down, thinking about it, Que Xuan couldn't think of a foolproof ...... It should be said that there is a little hope of getting out of trouble.

"Your Majesty, why don't you send some people first, so that you can pick up some of the lost baggage?" At a glance, the Son of Heaven was dumbfounded, and he had no choice but to make a plan.

"Yes, good way! Uncle Si, you have made meritorious service! Like a drowning man who has grabbed a life-saving straw, Que Xuan smiled happily: "There are so many burdens, and they will not all ......."

Only halfway through speaking, Que Xuan felt like someone had pinched his neck, his laughter stopped abruptly, and the Qingzhou army on the other side moved.

First, a fast horse came from the south and went straight into the Chinese army, and then the Chinese army waved the flag, and half of the cavalry was ordered to unload their armor and dismount, and then, in full view of everyone, these five hundred cavalry turned into a naval army!

Lightly armed, the cavalry-transformed navy skillfully fiddled with the ship's belongings, some rocked, some sailed, some rowed, and in no moment, fifty swift ships set sail, straight down the river, faster than galloping horses, better than lightning. Que Xuan was only stunned for a moment, and he could only vaguely see the shadows of the sails at the end of the water and sky.

Stunned, he exclaimed in shock: "Not good! My baggage! ”

If there was no reminder from Que Si, he might not have reacted so quickly, but Que Si's idea was like explaining the other party's actions, and the timing was just right.

Que Xuan was in a hurry, he even forgot the title of the self-proclaimed Son of Heaven, he flipped down from the soft sedan chair, stared at the south, and there was already a cry in his voice: "Quick, send someone quickly, go...... Anyway, think of a way! ”

It must be too late to send people, not to mention the infantry, even the cavalry may not be able to catch up with the fleet in Qingzhou. Even the sky is not beautiful, and the southeast wind has been blowing all the time today, and at this moment the wind direction suddenly changed, and the northeast wind blew. With the wind and the water going smoothly, plus there are two rows of oars on the boat, how can the speed be described by a fast word?

Not to mention that Que Xuan was dumbfounded, even Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong on the top of the mountain had shocked expressions.

The predecessor of the Hidden Mist Army, the special combat team, first exterminated the bandits under Tai Shici, and was later used by Xu Shu as a killer group, and since then the positioning has been ambush and assassination.

After the expansion of the army and the replacement of the main general with Wei Yan, Wang Yu adjusted the training plan of the Hidden Mist Army. This adjustment, even in Qingzhou, once caused a lot of doubts.

Most people agree that the original tactics are good and effective, and it seems that there is no need to change them. But in the end, Wang Yu still insisted on doing it, and while riding south, he also took Wei Yan and his 500 new army with him.

Pang Tong and the others witnessed the new combat methods of the Hidden Mist Army throughout the whole process, and they finally began to understand what was going on with this army.

They can't make the most accurate evaluation, but what is certain is that this all-round class of troops is not just for the sake of appearance, this is a new way of fighting, and it is an army that completely nullifies the old standard of judging strength by the class of troops, and shocks the world.
