Chapter 283: Defeated
In addition to Chen Liang, Liu Qi also sent the other two troops to accompany him, and he himself stayed here to clean up the battlefield in the rear.
In addition, there are also believers in Daoming for Sun Guan.
Three hours later,
Breaking through the siege and leaving the ambush of the Qingzhou soldiers, Cao Cao, under the escort of Xu Chu, continued to run along the road.
But the further I went, the more I found that there was no road ahead!
"Ming Gong, let's go from here!"
After the scouts probed, they could only turn again and go to another path.
But Chen Liang didn't give Cao Cao's troops much time, and the soldiers he led pursued them relentlessly. Especially when Li Dian's ambush was seen through and broken, Li Dian and Cao Cao were separated, and the distance between his people and Cao Cao became closer and closer.
The time has reached the second half of the night, and everyone from all sides is actually a little difficult.
And thinking of the pursuers in the rear, Cao Cao, who still lost his armor, messed his hair, looked at the more precipitous path ahead through the light of the torches, and sighed helplessly: "Could it be that the will of heaven is so much?" Dead yes? ”
In this encounter tonight, the troops under his command were killed and wounded.
It is difficult to support Dingtao, and Cao Renbu on the other side, although there is news, it is difficult to turn around.
And if he can set up an ambush on this road, then in other ways, Liu Qi must also be on guard.
As soon as he thought of this, Cao Cao's heart became even more sad and angry.
This defeat was also a rare embarrassing battle for him.
As a result, the defeat in Yanzhou will be difficult to reverse. And with the place of Yanzhou, I am afraid that it will completely fall into the hands of Liu Qizhi.
As soon as he thought of this, as well as the arrangements for the war in these days, Cao Cao felt a breath of blood and rushed straight up.
He was originally riding on a horse, but he also spit out a mouthful of blood directly.
Such an abrupt thing surprised many people, Xu Chu hurriedly approached, very worried: "Ming Gong, your body!" ”
Cao Cao shook his head: "I'm fine, I'd better find the direction as soon as possible, so as to break through, and I hope that our people can arrive as soon as possible to help Zilian break through!" ”
After saying these things, Cao Cao's luck was not bad, and he used scouts to investigate, and sure enough, a few miles ahead, he found the avenue.
It was just a few miles away from Cao Cao that Zhao Yun, who had received news from Liu Qi, had already led his troops to the front after studying the map, preparing to intercept in this direction.
As for the situation of Dingtao, he presided over it as a deputy general, and the purpose was to besiege Cao Hong, so as to lead the enemy outside, so as to slowly break the city.
As for the military report from the front, Zhao Yun knew that compared with Dingtao, Cao Cao was the big one.
As long as Cao Cao can be obtained, as the Qingzhou generals expected, the Yanzhou War will be over for the most part.
As time passed, the dawn was not far away, but seeing that Cao Jun did not pass by here, Zhao Yun gave up a little, and at this time, he saw the scouts who were probing in front of him, and returned abruptly.
"General, as expected, in the southwest of Mao'er Slope, there is indeed a group of people and horses, coming from the mountain path, but the torches are lit in it, and some people are probing, but they can't get closer, and it is difficult to judge whether they are friends or enemies!"
With this military report, Zhao Yun opened the map again, and under the faint torch light, he looked at it carefully, and kept thinking in his mind.
He quickly ordered: "Now several hours have passed since the battle of Maoerpo, and the dawn is approaching.
We were on the march when we received news from the envoy, so we judged the enemy's situation.
The part of this road, it is likely to be Cao Jun, give the order to go down!
The troops of all sides extinguished the torches and laid an ambush with the help of dry grass.
Once it is found that it is friend or foe, but according to my command, it should be broken! ”
"No!"
Zhao Yun gave these orders, and he looked at the sky that had begun to slowly light up. In fact, there is not much hope.
After receiving the news from the envoy Liu Qi, he, who was supposed to support him halfway, quickly reversed his direction and was determined to block the road where Cao's army might break through.
However, the geographical environment around Dingtao is very complicated. Between the mountains and fields, the roads are even denser.
But with this, it is difficult to determine whether Cao Cao, who escaped, would go from other directions. However, with the avenue he chose to squat, it was also the main road to the west, and he thought that Cao Cao was the most likely place to travel.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I arrived at the reserved place, I found something strange.
……
Cao Cao, who was in the army, had not yet noticed that he had just escaped the pursuit of Chen Liangxing, the general of Qingzhou, and encountered another crisis. Gain's inquiries from the scouts were very limited in the darkness of the day.
When returning to the main road from the winding mountain path, Xu Chu quickly gathered the surrounding parts to do a good job of guarding.
When I left, there were only two or three hundred people.
Even if Li Dian can successfully break through from the other side, how much is left of Cao Jun who came to help Dingtao this time?
Looking at the soldiers around him, his eyes were somewhat dim, and Cao Cao sighed.
Just then, scouts came running from the west side. Hearing such a sound, Cao Jun, who had been fleeing all night, immediately tensed his nerves.
Could it be that there are enemy forces in front of you?
"Report, the headquarters of our army, led by Chen Xijiu, is ten miles ahead, and is coming to greet Ming Gong!"
After receiving this military report, everyone breathed a sigh of relief in an instant.
The so-called Chen sacrificial wine is not Chen Qun.
And the reason why Chen Qun was able to arrive in such a timely manner was that after he received the news that Cao Renzhi's troops had been attacked by Qingzhou soldiers, he waited to discuss it with Xu You, and quickly judged that this time the crisis of Dingtao was a plan for Qingzhou soldiers to lure the snake out of the hole.
At this point, then Ming Duke Cao Cao, Xu Jiang fell into danger, thinking of this, Chen Qun sent a letter to Cheng Yu, who transferred troops on the other side, and divided labor with Xu You, and let Lejin's department also move in the direction of Dingtao, that is, no longer to assist the direction of Dongjun, and respond with all his might.
On the way to the arrival, by encountering some scattered rout deserters, Chen Qun knew the correctness of the judgment, so after analyzing and judging Cao Cao's possible breakthrough direction, he quickly turned around and rushed over.
"The Ministry of Long Texts is here! I'll go to the Confluence! ”
In such a desperate situation, he suddenly got reinforcements, Cao Cao's inner feelings, it can be imagined, he quickly ordered.
Under Cao Cao's order, the remaining less than 300 people took cover alternately in front and back, preparing to move closer to Chen Qun's troops in front.
In the other direction, only five miles away, seeing the already bright sky, and having to report to the scout, Zhao Yun was surprised.
It can be sure that it was indeed the Cao army that broke through from the other side, but with the oncoming Cao army reinforcements, it came so quickly!
This retired Cao Jun, Cao Cao is much more likely to be inside!
Judging from the situation, and then getting the news of Cao's army's turn, Zhao Yun almost did not hesitate, he no longer let his own troops hide his whereabouts, and pursued them with the cooperation of various cavalry units.
