Chapter 282: Dingyan (II)
Cao Cao's order, according to the scout's warning, most of the Cao camp turned around again.
In the deep night, in the light of the full moon, a long line of soldiers, holding torches, marched one after another.
Just as Cao Jun was in front of him, getting closer and closer to Liu Qibu's ambush, all the Qingzhou soldiers held their breath.
However, with the increase of Cao's scouts, the risk of exposure to the ambushes on both sides gradually increased.
Seeing that most of the Cao army had entered the ambush, although they had not entered the core area, the distance was about the same, Liu Qi gave an order, and the Qingzhou soldiers acted quickly.
First, he ignited a thunderbolt and threw it down from a high place to confuse the cavalry of the Cao army.
Immediately afterwards, the archers on both sides, with bows and crossbows in their hands, lowered the torches in front of them and kept shooting.
Wails echoed in the valley.
"Hit the mark!"
Cao Cao led his own soldiers to guard Xu Chu, and when he saw the shocking changes in the valley, he immediately realized what had happened!
And before that, that series of discoveries, there is no doubt, is still the Qingzhou soldiers' strategy to lure the enemy. As for now, under the darkness of the night, under the chaos of Cao's army, the combat power is not only greatly reduced. Coupled with the early ambush of the Qingzhou soldiers, the enemy took advantage of the right time and place!
It was also at this moment that Cao Cao somewhat understood the source of his panic today.
"Kill!"
In the further direction, the killing shouts of the Qingzhou soldiers came, making Cao Cao, who was in the center, turn around.
In today's situation, there is no way to avoid it, there is only one battle!
"Man Cheng, coordinate all departments to fight back, and you must not continue to panic!"
After shouting an order for Li Dian, Cao Cao looked at Xu Chu, who was guarding him tightly, he drew his long sword, and said, "Zhong Kang, you wait for everyone, follow me!" ”
"No!"
After Xu Chu and the others responded, Cao Cao did not pause, raised his long sword and slashed into the gap in front of him.
Although others are short, they are extraordinary in their force and mounted archery. In the past, when the Yellow Turban Army was exterminated, Cao Cao also relied on his bravery and command to make great achievements.
Just as Cao Cao was entering the army, Liu Qi also pulled out his long sword, rode over the war horse hiding in the rear, led Chen Liang and others, and said loudly: "Kill Cao Jun and restore me to Jiyin!" ”
"Kill!"
The two sides fought together, and they were divided into more than a dozen battle groups at once.
That is, under the banner of Cao Jun, after Liu Qi stabbed an enemy down, he inadvertently looked at it, looked at it again and again, and was sure that he was not wrong.
The person in this is not Cao Cao!
Xu is fate, the Qingzhou soldiers who came to ambush Cao Jun were personally led by him, and the Cao Jun who rescued Cao Hong was actually led by Cao Cao himself!
After seeing Cao Cao's side, the brave and fighting generals, Liu Qi recognized at a glance that this was Xu Chu, the general who had been following Cao Cao before and after the battle at Revolving Gate Pass.
Xu Chu is a world-class general, and his combat power is extraordinary. But two hands are difficult to reach four fists, like the guards accompanying him, all of them are brave warriors.
"Follow me to the front, Cao Cao is in front!"
Liu Qi ordered again, and when the soldiers heard the name "Cao Cao", they were all excited.
Under the initiative of the Lord General Liu Qi to open the way, he moved forward.
Soon, Cao Jun, who resisted, was torn open.
In this way, Cao Cao also discovered it for the first time.
When Cao Cao squinted at the enemy generals who were coming to fight, Liu Qi's loud and bold voice happened to come from the darkness.
"Mengde, I've been waiting for a long time!
Today is a meeting, and I will use your head to comfort the soldiers who died on the front line of our army! ”
Liu Qi's voice was mixed with the sound of the wind, and Cao Cao quickly remembered after a few breaths.
Knowing that it was Liu Qi in front of him, he was equally happy, and said loudly: "It turned out that it was Sid who personally came to stop it, so I said that the tactics here, why are you so round." so too, and ask Sid to stay! ”
After the two finished saying this, the troops of both sides were instructed to kill all parties at the same time.
The closer he was to Cao Cao, Liu Qi looked at the distance, and he decisively took off the longbow on his back, that is, in the moonlight battle group, he shot three arrows in a row.
Over the years, he has never fallen behind in swordsmanship and archery.
It was in this archery technique that it was in the dark, but following the feeling of more than ten years, it quickly flew to both sides of Cao Cao.
The two pro-soldiers fell to the ground one after another, and they were right in front of him, which made Cao Cao instantly excited.
Liu Qi did not stop, at the time of the fifth arrow, directly took Cao Cao himself, the arrow was flying, Hugh broke through the air, Xu Chu felt the danger, and at the last moment, he actually pushed Cao Cao to the side. And this flying arrow was shot at Cao Cao's helmet.
Peng's moment, Cao Cao himself even felt a huge impact, he said in his heart: This Liu Xide, it should be a really powerful archery, if it weren't for Zhongkang, I was afraid that if it was shot at my neck, I would die!
Noticing that Cao's army was rushing forward and there was no chance to test fire, Liu Qi put down his bow and arrows, brandished his long sword, and continued in the direction of Cao Cao.
In the other warbands, Chen Liang learned that Cao Cao was in the middle of it, and with the help of the panic of Cao's army before and after, he quickly mobilized most of the troops to help Liu Qi kill Cao Cao.
As long as Cao Cao dies, there will be no one in Cao's camp who can coordinate all parties, and it will inevitably split, and the end of the Yanzhou war will not be far away.
Seeing that there were more and more enemies surrounded by them, not only Li Dian, who was fighting fiercely outside, but also Xu Chu, who was always guarding Cao Cao's side, was also a little panicked.
Compared with the victory of the war, the safety of Cao Cao, the Duke of Ming, was even better.
"Ming Gong, withdraw!
The enemy army has the advantage, but with this battle, Ming Gongju can't fall into it! ”
After Xu Chu killed an enemy, he approached Cao Cao and said in a low voice.
Cao Cao's helmet was a little tilted, and he didn't have time to straighten it, even the armor on his body was also stained with blood.
raised his head again and looked at Liu Qi, who was dozens of feet tall, with a sad and indignant look on his face, unwilling to wait. But at the same time, I also know the facts of what Xu Chu said!
There was not much difference between the men and horses of the two sides, the Cao army marched overnight, and the Qingzhou soldiers were led by Liu Qi to wait for work.
If he continues to fight like this, he Cao Cao will not be able to hold on first!
"Withdraw!"
Cao Cao sent the byte almost out of his throat.
Liu Qi sensed slightly, he looked up, and saw Cao Jun's sudden movement, and then, his face looked solemn and said: "Cao Jun is about to break through!"
With the left and right parts, quickly adjust, block it back and forth, don't let go of Cao Cao! ”
Under the order here, the Qingzhou soldiers moved their direction again and went away with a more fierce fight.
However, after Cao Jun had the heart to break through, they came desperately one by one, causing the Qingzhou soldiers to slow down the speed of killing Cao Cao.
Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, Cao Cao did not dare to stay, even if the helmet was lost and the armor was messed up, he did not look back.
Under the cover of Xu Chu, his people went straight to another road. Li Dian gathered his subordinates and followed closely behind, so as to break the rear.
There was no need for Liu Qi's orders, Chen Liang saw this, and led his troops to chase away!
