Chapter 169: Yuan Shao's Death
Cao Cao saw that the reinforcements were coming, but at this moment, there were no less than 20,000 troops in Jizhou City, and the combat strength was not less than his own soldiers, it seems that the 20,000 troops were Yuan Shao's last soldiers and horses.
After Cao Cao held a green steel sword in his hand at this moment and watched Yuan Shao's 20,000 horses rush up, Yuan Shao's army morale was greatly shocked, and in Cao Cao's opinion, his soldiers had no strength, if they continued to fight like this, their soldiers and horses would be swallowed up by Yuan Shao, although they could drag the reinforcements in this way, but their soldiers were too dead and wounded.
Cao Cao shouted at this moment: "The whole army and soldiers pushed to the two wings, leaving an opening for Yuan's army, let them go"
The speed of the soldiers quickly pushed to the two wings, and the arrow left a big opening, Yuan Shao and Tian Feng shouted after seeing it, quickly rush out from the middle opening, as soon as the reinforcements of the Cao army arrive, we will definitely die!
The soldiers of the Yuan army quickly escaped from the middle, and Cao Cao watched as the Yuan army fled from the city and went directly to the mountains and forests.
Cao Cao did not order his soldiers to pursue, but sat on the ground, covered in blood and exhausted.
After a while, the sound of horses' hooves shaking the earth and shaking mountains became closer and closer, and a puff of smoke and dust not far away came to the side, Dian Wei and Xiahou Yuan arrived at Cao Cao's side, Cao Cao sat on the ground and said to Dian Wei: "You two take Xiahou Dun and bring your 20,000 cavalry to pursue, and kill when you see reinforcements."
After the two agreed to the promise, they got on their horses directly and led the cavalry to pursue Yuan Shao.
Jia Yu walked up to Cao Cao and said, "Lord, will Yuan Shao *****?"
Cao Cao took over and said: "No, if Yuan Shao can spread it on my territory, I won't be Cao Cao" After saying this, Cao Cao sat on the ground and suddenly leaned back, lay on the ground, looked at the sky and suddenly laughed.
Yuan Shao's army is heading towards Xuzhou, taking the mountain road.
Tian Feng said: "Lord, the soldiers can't run anymore, thousands of people have been dropped, we can't leave the soldiers behind, it's time to rest for a while."
Yuan Shao's face was full of sweat, and he panted and said: "Okay, let's stop and rest for a while, send spies to probe in all directions, we will rest on the spot for a stick of incense, everyone hurry up and eat something."
After the soldiers heard the order, they all straightened up and suddenly spread on the ground, lying on the ground and began to sleep, bursts of snoring came out, Yuan Shao looked at it, now there are less than 40,000 soldiers and horses, it seems that they are really tired.
After half a pillar of incense, a spy who came from behind on a flying horse said: "Report, lord, there is cavalry chasing us behind, more than ten miles away from us. ”
Yuan Shao glanced at Tian Feng, Yuan Shao knew that his soldiers and horses were all foot soldiers, and if the cavalry was ten miles away, he would be able to catch up with them in a short time. Five strategies can be made, so I have to see what Tian Feng has a good strategy.
Tian Feng looked at the map and said: "Lord, we are here now, there is a canyon fifteen miles ahead, called Laohukou, we can set up an ambush again and destroy the cavalry pursued by the Cao army."
Yuan Shao stood up and ordered, and the whole army set off and rushed to the tiger's mouth.
The awake soldiers began to call the sleeping soldiers, and after they all woke up, Yuan Shao began to move forward quickly with the soldiers, Yuan Shao was tired and couldn't do it anymore, so he threw away the armor on his body, in order to reduce the weight and save physical strength.
While running, he asked Tian Feng, where have we been, and how far are we to get there.
Tian Feng has always responded: "Five miles", "three miles", "one mile"
Suddenly, Yuan Shao and the others saw a very spacious valley in front of them, Yuan Shao was overjoyed, and immediately said: "Quick, the archers climb the cliff, hurry up and ambush."
"The spearmen and I rushed to the tiger's mouth, ready to kill the enemy"
As soon as Yuan Shao gave the order, a rain of arrows flew down from both sides of the cliff, and Yuan Shao's horse fell to the ground with arrows, and at this moment Yuan Shao panicked, got up from the ground and shouted, hidden, quickly find something to hide.
The soldiers were lightly armed, and they didn't have any shields with them, so they could only watch the rain of arrows fall on them from above.
Tian Feng did not dodge in the rain of arrows, but knelt on the ground and looked at the rain of arrows in the sky and shouted, "Oh my God" and then laughed and cried like a madman. Tian Feng knew that he was already defeated at this moment, there was no chance, there were chasing soldiers in the back, and there was an ambush in front.
Tian Feng has always blamed himself in his heart, because he didn't think about it comprehensively, and he knew that the tiger mouth could set up an ambush, but he only thought about where he went to ambush Cao Cao, but he didn't expect that Cao Cao would ambush him there. Yongchen misunderstood that what the master said was himself.
A rain of arrows shot at Tian Feng's body, and Tian Feng was about to do this, thinking about death.
Laohukou is less than 100 miles away from Xuzhou, and Lijingzhou is less than 300 miles. Seeing that Yuan Shao escaped from Cao Cao's territory, he never expected that he would be ambushed by Cao's army in the last place.
Tian Feng was already heavy and couldn't survive the arrows, but at this moment, he saw that Yan Liangwen was struggling desperately, and at this moment, the cavalry of the Cao army had arrived, and they were wantonly killing Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses behind.
Yuan Shao looked at it and didn't have any way, braved the rain of arrows and walked to Tian Feng's side, Yuan Shao looked at Tian Feng's side and said: "You have been loyal to me, you go first, Yuan Shao will come to accompany you immediately"
At this moment, an arrow flying from the sky was coming from Yuan Shao's back, only to hear Yuan Shao's voice, Yan Liang and Wen Chou looked at it, and shouted: "Lord!! ”
Yuan Shao did not fall, but used all his strength, stood up, looked at the sky and shouted: "God really helps Cao and doesn't help Yuan."
Whoosh, three arrows were shot at Yuan Shao's back, and at this moment, Yan Liang and Wen Chou ran desperately to Yuan Shao's side, and when Yuan Shao was exhausted and fell backwards, Yan Liang and Wen Chou came to Yuan Shao's side to support Yuan Shao and did not fall. I kept shouting the lord.
At this moment, a rain of arrows flew up from the ground, swishing, and shot directly at Cao Jun above.
Suddenly, a large group of men and horses came up from behind, rushed up, and then came to Yan Liangwen Chou, and directly killed the 20,000 cavalry of Dian Wei and Xiahou Yuan Xiahou Xuan.
Yan Liang and Wen Chou saw it and shouted: "Which hero comes to help" A man in white armor and a white silver spear in his hand said: "As long as it is Cao Cao's enemy, it is our friend"
Yan Liang and Wen Chou said: "You only seem to have more than 10,000 people, and Cao Jun's cavalry has more than 20,000, you are not an opponent, so let's escape."
This person smiled slightly and said: "It's only 20,000 cavalry, and my 10,000 people are enough to destroy it."
