Chapter 314: The Hou Army is burned
Jiang Yiqu led his troops to attack the defense line of Cao's army.
Cao Jun opened the gap at this time, let the enemy in, and immediately made a gesture of feint, retreating in the direction of the Chinese army, resisting while retreating, according to Chen Zhou's arrangement, the enemy must not be allowed to enter the Chinese army.
The rear army gave up for the time being, but the Chinese army had to hold on.
"Kill!"
Jiang Yiqu shouted loudly to boost morale.
Seeing that Cao's army was beginning to retreat, the soldiers of the Yuan army felt that their opportunity had come, and they rushed forward one after another, and finally let them enter the rear army.
"Half of the people, pursue Cao Jun."
"Half more, set fire to me!"
After Jiang Yiqu came in, he saw all kinds of tents where Cao Jun's rear army stored grain and grass, as well as straw stacked on the ground.
They don't know if it's grain and grass, the light is not good at night, and the scene is too chaotic, but in their inherent cognition, what can be stored here must only be grain and grass, and after Jiang Yiqu's order, soldiers immediately set the dead grass and tents on fire.
The fire began to appear in the rear army, and it was spreading.
Tongues of fire rolled wildly, as if devouring everything.
Seeing Cao Ying on fire, Jiang Yiqu's eyes flashed with excitement, the great achievement of burning Cao Jun's grain and grass fell on him like this, and they could finally turn defeat into victory, shouting: "Keep killing, don't give Cao Jun a chance to fight the fire." ”
The fight continues.
The killing is getting more and more intense.
Chen Zhou had retreated to the edge of the Chinese army, looked outside at this time, and saw that the firelight began to appear, and sure enough, as he thought, Yuan Shao would not let go of Cao Cao's grain and grass, and in his own way, he also gave him back, and shouted: "Let people pretend to put out the fire, and when the fire is almost burned, then counterattack in an all-round way, kill them, use bed crossbows to kill, and gather the other bed crossbows of the Chinese army." ”
The soldiers were given orders and methodically followed Chen Zhou's orders.
They pretended to put out the fire, and pretended to be killed by Yuan Jun, and they couldn't save the fire.
As the fire spread, the degree of burning became stronger and stronger, and the tents of half of the rear army gradually fell into the sea of fire, and this level of fire was basically impossible to extinguish in ancient times.
"Fight back in full swing, do it!"
Chen Zhou shouted again.
Commanding such a battle is actually quite stressful, for fear that even the Chinese army will be burned in an accident.
The bed crossbows that could be used now were quickly gathered by them, pushed out from the Chinese army, and shot at the Yuan army together.
With the sound of a loud bowstring, the bed crossbow broke through the air and broke into the enemy, the soldiers of the Cao army had retreated, and the soldiers of the Yuan army were about to chase after them, just in time to meet the arrow shaft of the bed crossbow, and fell into a piece of people.
The sound of wailing, continuous.
Wait until the bed crossbow is fired, and the soldiers quickly load the arrows.
"Archer!"
Chen Zhou shouted.
The archer stepped forward and drew his bow to shoot at the Yuan soldiers.
Among the Yuan army, another group of people fell.
Jiang Yiqu also wanted to take advantage of the situation to kill the Chinese army, attacking the Cao camp before and after, seeing this, he mistakenly thought that the Cao army's support for the rear army camp was coming, and he didn't dare to kill it again, for fear that he would not be able to leave it again, and saw that the camp was in a sea of fire, and the plan was perfectly completed, and shouted: "Retreat!" ”
Under his orders, Yuan Jun quickly retreated.
It is really difficult to extinguish this level of fire, Jiang Yiqu is confident that he has burned Cao Jun's grain and grass, but he doesn't know that Chen Zhou predicted their prediction, and transferred the grain and grass in advance, so he decisively retreated at this time and went back to the north.
"Sir, the enemy has retreated!"
Wang Yuan said with a grim face: "Fortunately, Mr. had the foresight to move the grain and grass in advance. ”
Chen Zhou saw Yuan Jun retreating, and ordered: "Half of the people continue to defend to prevent the enemy from coming back, and half of them are ready to find a way to put out the fire, and they can save as much as they can." ”
"Yes!"
They went to action right away.
No one paid attention to Jiang Yiqu, who had retreated outside, and Chen Zhou did not plan to pursue.
Jiang Yiqu left in a hurry, returned to Yuan Shaojun, and said excitedly: "My lord, it has been successful." ”
"Really?"
Yuan Shao said, looking in the direction of Cao Ying, and sure enough, he could see the rising fire, and laughed: "Well done!" Ha ha...... Cao Cao, I see how you can win me this time! ”
In his opinion, Cao Cao was very fast and would definitely be defeated.
What else can you take to fight yourself?
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and then he burst out laughing, laughing very presumptuously and arrogantly.
——
Cao Ying, former army.
Cao Cao was directing a counterattack, beating back the soldiers who had come over Yuan Shao again and again.
Tonight, the Yuan army attacked the camp, in their surprise, no one expected this, but fortunately, the quality of the soldiers of the Cao army is good enough, even at night, the defense and vigilance are very high, the moment they are attacked, they immediately get up and counterattack, which does not cause too many problems.
It's just that the stalemate between the two sides has entered the most intense time.
"Lord, it's not good!"
Liu Ye exclaimed: "The rear army is on fire!" ”
The rear army is where their food and grass are.
Cao Cao immediately looked back, and when he saw the firelight, he exclaimed, "It's not good, it's ...... to cross."
Chen Zhou has been staying in the rear army, at this time it was on fire, he was worried that Chen Zhou was in danger, afraid that he would be caught in the fire, and hurriedly shouted: "Youwei, you take 5,000 people back, find Duzhi, protect Duzhi." ”
Youwei is Zhang Xiu's character, and when he got the order, he immediately led his troops to the rear.
"Damn Yuan Shao!"
Cao Cao roared angrily, the camp was actually on fire, but the big deal was that the grain and grass were burned.
But Chen Zhou can't have an accident, not at all.
"All the troops are attacking!"
Cao Cao roared angrily: "Zilian, you are here to command, I don't worry, I will also go to the rear army to have a look." ”
"Yes!"
Cao Hong responded.
Xun You and they were also worried about Chen Zhou, and they went back to the rear army with Cao Cao.
When the grain and grass are gone, they can collect them again.
But Chen Zhou is gone, and the losses are very serious.
Cao Cao's focus is not on grain and grass, but on Chen Zhou.
"Kill!"
Cao Hong took over the command, led the troops to attack the enemy fiercely, and rushed out in an all-round way, Yuan Shao's soldiers saw Cao's army counterattack in an all-round way, and were quickly suppressed and retreated continuously.
Yuan Shao got the news of Cao's counterattack and sneered: "Cao Apu must have known that his military camp was on fire, so he hurriedly went back to put out the fire, and wanted to concentrate his forces to fight us back first." ”
Guo Tu suggested: "Lord, we might as well retreat first, Cao Cao's grain and grass are gone, he must be desperate, and he can only retreat next." Let's come back, recuperate enough energy, wait until Cao's army retreats and then pursue, and kill Cao Cao by surprise! ”
"This plan works!"
Yuan Shao let out a sigh of relief, now he was extremely confident, and his mood was also very happy, and he ordered: "Mingjin! I'm going to play with Cao Ah slowly and torture him to the point that he regrets being my enemy, haha......"
He laughed arrogantly again.
I feel like I'm doing it again.
When Yuan Jun heard Mingjin's voice, he retreated in full force and no longer attacked.
Seeing this, Cao Hong did not chase out, but asked the soldiers to strengthen the protection of the camp, and then constantly sent scouts to keep an eye on the movements of Yuan's army.
