Chapter 152: A dilemma

"Ding, the sound of the east and west skills are used successfully, and the experience value is +2000."

In fact, this is the biggest reason why Wang Chong dares to take risks.

Because he used 3 skill points to upgrade the 'Upper House Ladder' to level 3 before, Wang Chong, who only had 2 skill points left, could only barely point the 'Sound East and West' to level 2.

Originally, the success rate of this operation was only 40%, but with the 15% additional layer of 'Sound East and West', the success rate of more than five layers was enough for Wang Chong to gamble.

When Wei Yan and the three of them collected their troops and returned to the camp, the sky had already dawned, and the Jinfan soldiers who had been fighting all night were already physically and mentally exhausted, and Wang Chong, who was sympathetic to the soldiers, did not immediately set up the troops on the road, but prepared to let everyone rest until noon and then set off again, anyway, the situation on Cao Cao's side should be even more unbearable than his own side, at least half of the soldiers on Jinfan's side did not participate in last night's battle, and the fire he set in Cao's camp was enough to make their entire army unable to sleep.

In this battle, Jin Fan killed more than 6,000 enemies, and his own losses were about 3,000, not a big victory, but it also greatly boosted the morale of the army, making this newly surrendered Nanyang soldier more cohesive than before.

At the same time, Wang Chong, who had gained a lot of experience points, also upgraded his level by one level, reaching level 32.

Cao Ying, in the big tent, the atmosphere is particularly solemn.

Cao Cao said nothing with a gloomy face, and the breakfast in front of the table did not even move a single chopstick.

After last night's fierce battle, it would be absolutely a lie to say that Cao Cao did not regret it in his heart.

Wang Chong is too difficult, it is more difficult than he imagined, he knew this, he should have listened to Guo Jia's persuasion before, and after receiving Nanyang, he prepared for Yuan Shao safely and steadily, and let Wang Chong lead the army back to Huainan, and things would not have developed into such a field as they are now.

In several confrontations with Wang Chong, Cao Cao did not take any advantage at all, and the generals under his command were also injured one after another, Li Dian, Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Dan, Xu Huang, Zhang Liao, all suffered a lot of injuries, the veteran Cai Yang was killed, the general Le Jin was captured, and now the grain and grass were burned clean by Wang Chong's fire, which is simply worse for them who are already short of food, he can't learn from Wang Chong to destroy the family to fill his own treasury, right?

There is no doubt that Cao Cao has been riding a tiger and it is difficult to get down, if he just lets Wang Chong go, then wouldn't the soldiers who died before die unjustly? This will obviously seriously shake the morale of the army, but if he continues to chase Wang Chong to the death, first, he is not sure that he will be able to keep Wang Chong, and second, he may have to pay a greater price in the follow-up.

Cao Cao subconsciously glanced at Guo Jia, because at this moment, I am afraid that Guo Jia will be able to solve his doubts.

Guo Jia, who was already weak and hadn't slept all night, his face was a little scary at the moment, he coughed lightly and said: "Lord, now it's chasing or retreating, the main thing is not to see whether we wait, but whether they can intercept Wang Chong's retreat, if they really block the impact of Jinfan, we will wait for the two phases to attack, Wang Chong will be defeated, on the contrary, we can't stop even if we want to!" ”

Cao Cao said worriedly: "Wang Chong is a scheming person, I'm afraid that Bo Ning will not be his opponent!" ”

Guo Jia reminded: "So the lord should quickly send someone to inform Berning, it is best to only defend and not attack, otherwise it is very likely that Wang Chong will peep into the flaws and be led by him to break through in one fell swoop!" ”

Cao Cao nodded thoughtfully: "Good!" ”

———————————————

At noon, the Jinfan soldiers, who had rested for a morning, finally recovered some of their spirits.

After lunch, Wang Chong set off again as a whole army.

Heading all the way to the southeast, Wang Chong's next stop was Yichun, but if he wanted to reach Yichun, he had to go through Yang'an first.

Yang'an is just a small city, Wang Chong didn't care much at first, but who would have thought that when he led his army to the vicinity of Yang'an, he was suddenly ambushed by Cao's army.

With a dense rain of arrows, thousands of Cao soldiers slaughtered out of the dense forest with great momentum, which really startled Wang Chong.

This is obviously a lesson, a lesson Wang Chong must not relax his vigilance at any time, under Cao Cao's command, there are countless good ministers and fierce generals, maybe you can be a light enemy, you may not recover.

In the face of the ambush of the Cao army, the unsuspecting Jinfan formation was in chaos, Wang Chong's eyes were about to split, he thought that he was about to reap a defeat, but at this critical moment, he didn't know if the enemy's main general was in the water, so he actually slapped his horse and went straight to fight himself.

This made Wang Chong, who wanted to order the withdrawal of the army, change his mind, since everyone took the initiative to send it to the door, how could Wang Chong not laugh at it? The two fought for more than 20 times, and the enemy general was pierced through the throat by Wang Chong with a shot.

The death of the main general made the morale of the Cao army collapse for thousands of miles, and they were completely in chaos without knowing whether to fight or retreat, and as a result, they were killed by Jinfan, who had been relieved, and almost the entire army was wiped out.

By the skin of one's teeth!

Wang Chong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, this ambush by Cao Jun was enough to ring his alarm bell and make him more cautious in his next actions.

From the mouth of the captive, Wang Chong learned that the general of the Cao Army who was killed by himself was named Li Tong Li Wenda, who was the commander of this Yang'an.

Li Tong? Wang Chong had vaguely heard this name in his previous life, which showed that this person still had some ability under Cao Cao, and it was no wonder that he was able to survive twenty moves under his full attack, but it was a pity that he didn't think so much about it before in a hurry, if he could take it for his own use, he would be a good general.

In addition, Wang Chong also learned a news from the captives that made him frown, that is, Runan Taishou Manzhong and two Yellow Turban generals Liu Bigong had led an army of 6,000 to set up camp on their own way, looking at this, it was obvious that they wanted to block themselves here and wait for Cao Cao's army to arrive.

Wang Chong fell into a dilemma, advancing, there was a full favor to lead the army to intercept, retreat, I am afraid that he will immediately run into Cao Cao's army.

Wang Chong did not think that he could easily break through the camp he guarded, and if he could not break it in one go, the arrival of Cao Cao's main force would inevitably deal a devastating blow to them.

Fortunately, Wang Chong did not mess up because of this, he ordered the army to camp on the spot and began to arrange layers of defense.

On the surface, Wang Chong's move seems to be just drinking to quench his thirst, at most he can live a few more days.

But in fact, it is impossible for Wang Chong to sit still, and although Runan is Cao Cao's territory, it does not mean that they must be alone......
