Chapter 85: Depressed Cao Cao

The battle ahead is fierce.

Lejin and full of pets naturally also got the signal.

They did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly led the army, but the traps on the road were one after another, which made people panic.

Moreover, Huang Zhong sent archers in front.

The rain of arrows came in a hurry, leaving them in a dilemma.

On the frontal battlefield.

Cao Cao was flanked by Huang Zhong, and the army panicked.

Especially Xu Huang and Cao Ren, they couldn't stop Shamoke, which further caused the situation to collapse.

Huang Zhong is fighting with Xu Chu.

By Cao Cao's side, Xun You carefully reminded:

"Prime Minister, the situation is not good, let's withdraw first!"

As soon as his thoughts turned, Cao Cao's eyes fell on the camp, and he also heard sporadic rushing and killing.

However, the Jingzhou army was not afraid at all, and it had already expected it.

Just like Xu Huang's attack, it is full of traps, I am afraid that it is almost the same as Lejin and full of favors.

If it goes on like this, it's really not a thing.

The soldiers' fighting spirit was damaged, and if they continued to fight, it would only increase casualties.

That's when it happened.

Cheng Yu said in astonishment:

"Prime Minister, something is wrong, something happened in the camp."

Hearing this, a cold sweat broke out on Cao Cao's forehead.

Looking in the direction, there was a puff of smoke pouring out of his own camp, of course this would not have been sent by Cao Chun, and he was not stupid, how could he set fire to his own camp.

Almost instantly, Cao Cao guessed the truth.

"Liu Bei!"

Cao Cao gritted his teeth, and his heart was even more annoyed.

It's been a long time since he's been so aggrieved.

Since Yuan Shao's death, Cao Cao's unification of the north can be said to have been done in one go, without any hindrance.

In such a situation, there is really no way to fight it.

Cao Cao said slowly:

"Tell the order to retreat!"

There was a crisp sound, and it was Mingjin who had withdrawn his troops.

Cao Cao and others evacuated first.

Xu Chu and Huang Zhong fought, although they were not obviously at a disadvantage, but he himself could feel that the enemy general in front of him looked gray, but his strength was terrifying.

Seeing that Cao *** had withdrawn, Xu Chu didn't do much entanglement.

It's also a false trick to evacuate.

Huang Zhong led the troops to chase and kill for a while, and Cao Jun fled in embarrassment, losing his armor and gaining a lot.

After the camp.

Le Jin and Man Pet have not yet killed the Jingzhou military camp.

I heard the sound of gold.

"What's going on? The prime minister is retreating? ”

Full Pet said in surprise.

In this regard, Le Jin's face was a little solemn and said:

"I'm afraid that the battle ahead is unfavorable, and the prime minister has no choice but to choose Mingjin, and we can't stay here for a long time, if the enemy army turns back at this moment, we won't be able to leave."

Full Pet hurriedly agreed:

"Okay, let's withdraw first!"

Cao Jun camp in the village.

After judging that Cao Cao had led the main force to leave, Liu Bei sent Zhang Fei to lead a group of soldiers and horses to call for battle.

Cao Chun led the troops into battle.

At this time, Liu Bei sent Zhao Yun to lead people to raid and set fire from the rear. Not to mention the complete defeat of Cao Jun, as long as it can cause certain losses, this wave is also a sure win.

After Cao's military camp, it was already thick smoke.

Cao Chun couldn't take care of Zhang Fei, turned around and led people to fight the fire, Zhang Fei rushed to kill for a while, but he didn't delay too much, and then led the troops to evacuate.

Seeing the battlefield on land, Wen Ping also sent people to join in the fun.

Another wave of harassment made Cao Chun tired of it.

Standing on the city tower, Liu Bei looked at the camp outside the city and couldn't help laughing:

"Cao Cao really led the troops to leave, and now Cao's army camp is in a mess, and I don't know what the battle situation is on Cao Cao's side?"

Xu Shu looked into the distance, and then affirmed:

"Don't worry, the lord, I'm afraid Cao Cao has already lost, and look over there, it should be Cao Cao's army."

Liu Bei then looked at it, and sure enough, a large army attacked.

He couldn't help laughing and said:

"Okay, you Cao Cao, you even have today!"

Now that Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun have returned to the city, Liu Bei can't help but think about it, how should it be arranged later?

Soon, Liu Bei's eyes fell on Xu Shu:

"Now that Cao Cao is still stationed outside Xinye City, what should he do next? Please also ask the military advisor to teach me. ”

Hearing Liu Bei's words, Xu Shu slowly shook his head and said:

"Don't worry, the lord doesn't have to worry, Cao Cao may have to withdraw next."

"Retirement?"

When he heard this, Liu Bei was obviously stunned.

Somewhat incredulously, he said:

"Although Cao Cao has a small defeat, the main force is still there, how can he retreat?"

In this regard, Xu Shu did not sell the guanzi, and said calmly:

"Although Cao Cao's main force is still there, it is not good to attack Xinye for a long time, plus Jingzhou is sandwiched by three parties, if he continues to be stationed here, he will be cut off from the grain route, and Cao Cao will not be able to leave if he wants to.

However, Cao Cao may not stop his army, and it is more likely that he will go straight to Jingbei Yingzhai. As long as the current deadlock is broken, he still has a chance to conquer the city in Jingzhou. ”

Liu Bei suddenly realized that what Xu Shu said was not unreasonable.

Now Cao Cao looks very fierce, in fact, his mentality has collapsed, and the army is stuck in Xinye City.

Although there is not much loss, the low morale cannot be changed.

Immediately, Liu Bei said with some emotion:

"It's a good thing if Cao Cao really retreats, but it's a pity that he can't defeat Cao Jun, and he will be in trouble in the future."

Hearing Liu Bei's words, Xu Shu said with a wry smile:

"It is very difficult to defeat the Cao army now, and the best way is to fight with it, with the elite of the Cao army's land battle, it is extremely difficult to win a big victory.

But with Cao Cao's current situation, he would never rush across the river, so he could only figure it out slowly. ”

Liu Bei also nodded.

The army retreated.

Cao Cao and his entourage quickly rushed to the camp.

Looking at the somewhat chaotic camp, Cao Cao's heart was extremely angry.

Obviously his strength is stronger, why is he so aggrieved, it's really uncomfortable!

At this moment, Cao Chun rushed to report and said with a look of shame on his face:

"It is not good for the last general to defend the village, please punish the prime minister."

Cao Cao looked around, shook his head and said:

"Liu Bei is too a woman to cheat, you can't be blamed for this."

Cao Chun sighed, and he had nothing to say.

At this moment, Xu Huang was hit by the thistle terrestris, his face was bruised, and he obviously looked like he was dying.

Cao Cao asked a military doctor to be treated.

This is clearly an internal injury that has been hammered out.

When the military doctors saw this scene, they all felt incredible, but with such an injury, it was not so quick to recover.

Previously, Xue Li's bow and arrow were just ordinary bows and arrows, and they did not cause magic damage. So Xu Huang recovered quickly, and this almost shattered Xu Du, so he naturally needed to recuperate.

Xu Huang was extremely ashamed of his injury again.

Cao Cao patiently comforted:

"Gongming, I can't blame you for this battle, it's really Liu Qi's children who are deceitful and insidious, and they even colluded with the barbarians, which our army didn't expect. You must recuperate and recover fully before you try to fight. ”

Facing the benevolent Cao Cao, Xu Huang spat blood and said:

"Prime Minister Ende, the last general will be unforgettable."

Cao Cao sighed, a little at a loss for a while, but he knew that he couldn't continue like this.

He had to think differently, and it would be unwise to stumble here.
