Chapter 83: Exhaustion
In the night, the sound of killing shook the sky, and it could be heard more than ten miles away. Qingfeng Ridge is fighting, and the mountain people who hear the fight in Qingfeng Ridge are holding their wives and children and praying in trembling, and maybe there are also the ancestors of Tai Chi Grandmaster.
Three thousand wolves rode to wait for work, and the Cao army who killed them was bleeding, and they only hated the lack of two legs.
The Cao army in the dark night, after being defeated and retreating for a mile, was completely chaotic, and the organization was also chaotic.
And Cao Cao was deeply trapped in his own chaotic army, and the horse was robbed and rode away by that bastard, which shows that the chaos at that time even dared to rob Cao Gong's horse.
Cao Cao watched left and right, and Xiahoudun, Xu Chu and other generals couldn't see it, only soldiers he didn't know.
Suddenly, he couldn't take a step forward, and the figure of the cavalry behind him was getting closer and closer, and a large number of his own soldiers fell, which made Boss Cao even more heartbroken, and shouted: "I'm Cao Cao, who will save me!" ”
The soldiers around him were already panicking, and no one responded to him, but found out that it was the lord, and they fled in all directions for fear of being implicated and losing their lives.
"Cao Cao seems to be there!" Someone in the wolf rider shouted.
Cao Cao's face changed greatly, he only thought that he was going to die this time, the hatred in his heart, hating himself, hating Gao Yuan.
At the critical juncture, a horse arrived and shouted: "Don't worry, my lord, Xu Chu is here!" ”
Cao Cao flew on his horse, hugged Xu Chu's waist, and shouted: "Retreat, retreat!" ”
"Protect the lord!" Xu Chu's voice is loud and distinctive, and it spreads far away in the chaotic army. After a while, like Xiahoudun, Cao Hong, and Cao Renquan came.
The generals began to collect the defeated troops, but in the night the soldiers and horses were completely chaotic, and they could not be contained at all. And Cao Cao felt the wolf riders chasing behind him, each of them could be Gao Mengyan, thinking of the power of the Fang Tian painting halberd, Cao Cao was cold on all fours, and shouted: "Leave the soldiers alone, send me back to the camp!" ”
So, the generals only gathered two or three thousand people and escorted Cao Cao all the way back to the camp. And in the night behind them, the killing continued.
It is said that when Cao Cao returned to the camp, it was already midnight.
Guo Jia and other scribes have been waiting at the gate since Cao Cao's army led the army to catch up. When they saw Cao Cao, they said happily: "Lord, you can catch Gao Mengyan!" ”
"Gao Mengyan!" As soon as Cao Cao heard this name, he suddenly broke out with a "fear of heights", and he had already lost his strength.
Guo Jia and the others trembled for a while, and hurriedly rushed up to help. Their IQ is on the high ground. Immediately understood everything, didn't say anything, and was defeated again.
Guo Jia smashed the back of his right hand into the palm of his left hand, and after a snap, he lost his voice and said, "How is this possible?" Didn't Gao Mengyan fall into an ambush, our army has 20,000 people, although he did not surround him, but he chased and killed all the way, and he would not be defeated! ”
Xu Chu stretched out his hand for Cao Cao's back, and Cao Hong for Cao Cao's chest. And Xiahoudun looked panicked and described the scene at that time.
Only then did the strategists of the Cao Cao Group know that it was Gao Mengyan who saw through the strategy of cheating death and came up with an anti-ambush.
Guo Jia, Xun You, Cheng Yu, and Jia Xu looked at each other, and couldn't believe what kind of person they were, and they saw through Cao Cao's plan again and again.
Lao Jia Xu touched his beard and said secretly: "It seems that the rise of this person is already unstoppable!" He felt that the situation in the north, which was becoming clearer and clearer, had become unpredictable because of the emergence of Gao Yuan, and it was unknown who could dominate the north and sweep the world.
The shouting of killing was getting closer and closer, and Cao Cao, who was angry, pushed Xu Chu and Cao Hong away and got on the horse again. Thinking of Gao Yuan, he trembled, he was unwilling, but he still shouted: "Order the whole army to retreat, retreat!" ”
Guo Jia and others found that Cao Gong's fear of heights broke out again. However, they also understood the correctness of Cao Cao's current decision. Now there are only 3,000 soldiers and horses left, and when the wolf riders of the state come, it will definitely die. If you don't run now, when?
Therefore, Cao Cao did not collect the defeated troops, retreated overnight, and retreated to the end. The next morning, I galloped thirty miles and came to the Mengjin Ferry.
"Get on board!"
"Get out of the boat! Fast! Cao Cao swarmed aboard with his defeated army.
When Gao Yuan's army chased after him, he saw all the people retreating.
The wolf rider who repelled almost ten times the enemy, looked at the enemy in the distance, raised his weapon, and burst into deafening cheers.
"Gao Mengyan, I will definitely come back!" Cao Cao looked at the figure on the red war horse on the shore and said fiercely.
After this battle, Gao Yuan gathered Cao's army and reduced his troops to 5,000, and his strength increased instead of decreasing, and captured Cao's generals Xiahou Yuan, Xu Huang, and Yu Ban. The victory strengthened his rule in the northern part of the state and the division.
40,000 Cao troops were defeated by 5,000 wolf riders.
As soon as the news came out, the world was shaken. From this moment on, the talents of the world really began to recognize Gao Yuan's status and regarded him as a prince who could compete with Cao Cao and Yuan Shao.
However, although Gao Yuan successfully held the foundation, he was already emaciated.
At noon on this day, Gao Yuan sat in the hall, looking through some letters.
Under the tent, Zhang Liao said carefully: "My lord, these letters are all from the officials of the counties and counties of Bingzhou, Hanoi, Hedong, and Pingyang. ”
Zhao Yun said indignantly: "Lord, how to deal with these people? ”
After Cao Cao's complete defeat and retreat, Gao Yuan seized the letters of Cao Cao secretly communicated with officials in various parts of his rule. He took a closer look, and there were no letters from Zhang Liao, Zhao Yun, and Chen Lin. Feeling relieved, he waved his hand and said, "It's all burned, you all forget about it, nothing like this has ever happened." ”
Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun were stunned for a moment, but they were also very intelligent, and they immediately grasped the key point, and the two of them admired Gao Yuan's generosity and foresight.
However, there is no impermeable wall in the world, and the news that the lord has burned many letters has come out, and only the officials who corresponded know what is going on. When they heard the news, they were ashamed. They sent letters expressing their allegiance and began to really manage the place for Takato. Gao Yuan's move completely consolidated his rule in the state.
Subsequently, Gao Yuan returned to his base camp in Hanoi.
Three days later, after Gao Yuan came out of the council hall after asking for an invitation from Mrs. Diao Chan, he came to the council hall and recruited Zhang Liao.
When Zhang Liao entered the hall, he saw Gao Yuan holding his forehead with his hands on his forehead, looking sluggish. In his opinion, the lord who had just won a big victory, had enough money and food, and had 10,000 soldiers and horses should be happy, and he was concerned: "Lord, why are you worried? ”
Gao Yuan has been very tired these days, not physically exhausted, but mentally tired. This time the victory over Cao Cao is already a super level of performance, perhaps, the next time it will not be such an ending, and Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are strong, it is an indisputable fact.
He raised his eyes and said, "Wenyuan, you go to Sima Yi's mansion and see if this kid is still crazy." This time, take a doctor with you. ”
Zhang Liao was very puzzled when he heard this, and said in his heart that this madness would not be cured for a while, but he still said: "Lord, I'll go now." ”
