Chapter 870: Momentum Like a Rainbow
The combined forces of Cao Cao and Lü Bu were defeated, and the direction they went to was on the west side of the battlefield, which was the direction of Xiangxian within the Peiguo region.
When Yang Rui returned to Qingzhou and Yanzhou to block Yuan Shao before, Cao Cao's troops tested Yang Rui's camp on the one hand, but they were not idle on the other hand, and had already deployed a small number of troops in Xiangxian County to control the entire county as a way back in case.
At this time, Cao Cao and Lü Bu's armies were really defeated, so after Cao and Lü's armies were defeated and retreated, they invariably chose to flee to the west.
"My lord, there are only thirty or forty thousand soldiers left in our army at this time, and all the generals are wounded, and although Cao Cao's troops have also suffered a lot of losses, they have retained most of their troops.
At this time, if the remnants of our soldiers rashly enter the city, it is difficult to ensure that they will not suffer in the hands of Cao Cao, and please think about it carefully!
In Chen Gong's opinion, it is advisable for us to quickly return to the land of Hanoi at this time, exert great efforts to govern the country, accumulate strength, and then slowly try to merge the surrounding states and Guannai land, so that it is not impossible for most of the rivers and mountains.
At this time, Cao Cao happened to be left in the county seat of Xiangxian County to deal with the soldiers of Qingzhou and Yanzhou, so that the two tigers could fight, thinking that it was the best policy for us to buy time, and I also asked the lord to decide......"
Because Cao Cao retreated one step earlier, when Lu Bu's army reached the county seat of Xiangxian, Cao Cao's vanguard troops had already entered the county seat of Xiangxian, and the remaining troops were also entering the city in a big way.
However, when Lu Bu was about to enter the county seat of Xiangxian County, his general Chen Gong dissuaded him.
"Gongtai was surprised that Cao Cao and I had reached an agreement to advance and retreat together. If we are now gone. It's treachery. It is unkind for us to leave Cao Cao alone here to fight against the scorching sun......"
Lu Bu didn't seem to listen to Chen Gong's persuasion, and was about to lead the remnants into the county seat of Xiangxian County as he spoke.
"Please think twice! Think twice! When we were ambushed before, Cao Cao fled alone, did he ever be benevolent to us?
The lord is the hero of the world, Cao Cao must be extremely jealous, but at this time Qingzhou, Yanzhou is strong, only to temporarily cooperate with the lord between trade-offs. Don't believe it!
Therefore, even if the lord and Cao Cao join forces to defeat the sun, it may not be a good thing, and when he can't say it, Cao Cao will point the finger at the lord!
Moreover, the land of Xuzhou is far away from the land of Hanoi and Bingzhou, and even if the land of Xuzhou is snatched in his hands, it is surrounded by jackals, tigers and leopards.
What's more, at present, the lord and Cao Cao have almost lost the qualification to compete in Xuzhou, with the participation of Lieyang, Cao Cao, Yuan Shu, Sun Jian, Liu Bei and many princes, how sure can the lord be able to take and control Xuzhou in one fell swoop?
Therefore, it is only in vain that the lord continues to stay here that he will only increase his troubles, efforts, and futile efforts, so please think twice before acting......"
Chen Gong naturally firmly insisted on his point of view. He thought that he had this kind of temperament, and his understanding of the situation in Xuzhou at this time was indeed reasonable.
However, Chen Gong tried to persuade Lu Bu. There were naturally a lot of emotional words in his tone, so before Chen Gong finished speaking, Lu Bu snorted coldly, and missed out to stop listening to what Chen Gong said.
It's just that Lu Bu didn't insist on entering Xiangxian City in the end, but directly staggered through the city 30 miles outside the west gate of Xiangxian County, and took his remaining 30,000 or 40,000 soldiers and horses towards Hanoi and Bingzhou.
I don't know if Lu Bu had a plan from the beginning, just to show benevolence and righteousness, or if Chen Gong's persuasion played a role, and Lu Bu finally changed his mind.
However, it was said that Yang Rui was hit by an arrow from Xiahou Yuan, and although the injury was not too serious, it was a little inconvenient for action.
After Cao Cao and Lu Bu's army retreated, Yang Rui wanted to immediately use Sky City to collect troops, and then chased and defeated Cao Cao and Lu Bu's rout, but was stopped by Guo Jia.
"My lord, Guo Jia also thought that when Cao and Lü were defeated, they should give full play to the advantages of the Sky City to transfer troops and block the rout of Cao Cao and Lü Bu along the line.
However, at this time, the lord was hit by an arrow and there were many inconveniences, and Cao Cao did not show a rout when he withdrew his troops, so he must have a backhand to deal with it, so Guo Jia thought that it was not appropriate to force it too much at this time, but should slowly try to do it.
Moreover, the Dragon Soul and other Inhuman forces are at a time when their morale is high, and their main goal is to weaken Lu Bu's strength, and at this time, hundreds of thousands of Inhumans have already followed the pursuit, so we can just wait and see what happens......"
For Guo Jia's statement, Yang Rui has nothing, although he has plenty of troops in his hands, but there are also a lot of losses in the previous battles, no matter how abundant, it has taken a lot of hard work to train, and he can use the strength of others to preserve his own strength, of course Yang Rui has no opinion.
"The military advisor ordered Dian Wei to recover his strength before, why didn't he chase after Cao Cao and Lu Bu at this time?"
However, among the generals in the main account of the camp, Dian Wei had an opinion, and he had been suppressed by Lu Bu before, and Guo Jia let him recover his strength and prepare to pursue, which made Dian Wei quiet.
However, Guo Jia now suggested not to pursue it for the time being, which made Dian Wei feel a little backsliding.
"General Dian Wei is beyond his reach, the so-called time and that time, I think that Lu Bu's life is strong, and the likes of non-generals are unmatched, and Lu Bu is not exhausted at this time, so it is impossible to say that the general needs to take it down in person ......in the end."
Guo Jia's words made everyone laugh, but Yang Rui knew very well in his heart that the most important reason why Guo Jia changed his previous attitude was because he was injured and could not effectively coordinate the troops.
In historical facts and romances, Guo Jia can be said to be an active attacker, and at this time, because of his own reasons, Guo Jia made this choice, and Yang Rui could only smile bitterly in his heart.
Not to mention that Yang Rui's troops did not move, tidying up the battlefield around the Thousand Machines Xuanjia Battalion, and at the same time, Zhang Ning, Han Dai, and Ding Yao took care of Yang Rui's injuries, but only said that the hundreds of thousands of players led by the Dragon Soul closely chased Lu Bu away.
During the period, the dragon soul and other players also caught up with some of Cao Cao's soldiers and horses, and the player group that was in full swing naturally would not let go of this opportunity, after all, Cao Cao was still occupying the Tiger Prison Pass at this time, and he was the prince who posed the greatest threat to him except for Hanoi Lu Bu.
can have the opportunity to weaken Cao Cao's strength, and can also obtain the completion of the plot, and the player group is naturally happy to do it.
Moreover, even if the dragon soul and others do not make a move, in the case of a two-phase encounter, Cao Cao's subordinates will take the initiative to attack the player, rather than waiting until then, it is better to directly push over after the encounter.
That's what the player group does, and it's like a rainbow! (To be continued.) )
