Chapter 316 Yanjin Retreat (10) 2/2(1/2)
Cao *** made a miscalculation!
To be precise, his strategy of setting up an ambush and preparing for an ambush halfway was seen through. Generally speaking, the biggest problem with this kind of ambush strategy is that it is seen through. Because once seen through, the initiative will instantly transfer to the enemy's hands.
, the risk increases accordingly.
It is impossible for Cao Cao to wait for Yuan Jun's pursuit. After all, he is preparing to retreat.
But once he withdraws from the ambush circle, when the enemy pursues him, he will inevitably suffer heavy losses...
Cao Cao knew that if Yuan Shao learned the news, he would definitely send troops to pursue him. So he set up an ambush, preparing to severely damage Yuan's army and then withdraw.
However, after waiting left and right, Yuan Jun's pursuers did not arrive.
Seeing that the time was passing by, Cao Cao did not dare to stay any longer. If Yuan Shao's army arrived, the few soldiers and horses in his hands would not be enough to compete. Therefore, Cao Cao decided to retreat slowly and ordered Yue Jin to lead his troops to Feng Feng.
Qiu retreated, and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry took the lead in leaving the battlefield.
In the middle of the day, Cao Cao saw that Yuan's army was still motionless, so he led his troops to retreat.
But who would have thought that as soon as he retreated, Yuan Shao's pursuers would arrive!
Moreover, the leader of the army was Zhang He, one of the Four Court Pillars of Hebei, which put Cao Cao into a dilemma.
Zhang He commanded the Euphorbia soldiers and launched a direct attack. Cao Jun was caught off guard and was quickly defeated. Fortunately, the Huben army, under the command of Dian Wei, resisted Zhang He's troops and horses, which temporarily delayed Yuan Jun's footsteps.
. But even so, Cao Cao's father-in-law was lost in the chaos. When Dian Wei found out that Cao Cao's son-in-law was missing, he was shocked... He tried to look for him again, but the battlefield was already overcrowded and in chaos.
.
Yuan Shao led his troops and pursued them...
——————————————————————————
This is a 'time difference' tactic.
If Cao Cao retreats, there must be an ambush.
Jushou knew that Cao Cao was cunning, so when Zhang He led his troops to pursue, he ran out of the Chinese army's tent and stopped Zhang He.
"Jun Yi Ke knows, how to pursue?"
Zhang He thought for a while and replied without hesitation: "Of course we will pursue with all our strength."
"If Jun Yi is like this, he will definitely lose."
"What did the Governor say?"
Ju said: "The thief Cao is cunning and full of tricks. Since he has evacuated the city, how can he be unprepared? I can be sure that the thief Cao will definitely set up an ambush in the middle. As soon as Junyi's pursuers arrive, ambushes will appear everywhere...
At that time, Junyi, you will be in danger."
Zhang He couldn't help but take a breath of cold air and asked quickly: "Please supervise me."
"I have given the Eight Characters to Jun Yi. As long as Jun Yi follows these Eight Characters, he will definitely defeat Cao Cao's thieves."
"What eight words can I ask?"
"Cao's thieves will not retreat, and his pursuers will not come out."
In other words, if you drag Mr. Cao along, don't move if he doesn't move.
Everyone was hiding in the dark, but Zhang He had a more advantageous situation than Cao Cao. Cao Cao wanted to retreat, and he couldn't stay there forever. Otherwise, he would have no choice but to capture Yuan Shao's army as soon as it arrived; therefore, Ju Shou
His strategy was to let Zhang He and Cao Cao compete in a patience competition.
Zhang He couldn't help but hesitate: "What if Cao Cao's thieves didn't set up an ambush?"
Jushou laughed and said: "Junyi doesn't know Cao Cao's death, so Cao Mengde must have set up an ambush, and he will personally break up the rear to stabilize the morale of the army..."
This person has great talents and strategies, knows how to stabilize the situation, and is very courageous.
At this time, if he doesn't stay behind, who else will be there? So I calculated that Cao Mengde will definitely stay and wait for the arrival of the pursuers."
Zhang He had always respected Ju Shou.
Jushou can be said to be an excellent strategist and a master of all strategies.
If Yuan Shao was willing to listen to Jushu's words, he might have gained the upper hand long ago instead of being in this stalemate now.
After Zhang He hesitated for a while, he decisively followed Jushu's plan. Jushu was right: Zhang He could afford it, but Cao Cao couldn't. In fact, this was indeed the case. When Cao Cao started to act,
After that, Zhang He immediately ordered the Euphorbia soldiers to attack.
Yuan Shao had more than ten thousand cavalry under his command.
Among them, the Euphorbias are all equipped with cavalry equipment, and there are more than 5,000 people.
While the two sides were delaying, Yuan Shao also ordered his troops and horses and quickly rushed towards Duting. Cao's army suffered heavy losses and was almost completely defeated!
Cao Peng was shocked when he heard this.
On the banks of the Duting River, the people of Jujube were also in panic.
"Ziyou, let me know, we will release 1,500 people at a time and speed up the passage.
All the baggage vehicles were abandoned and burned, and the soldiers passed quickly with only their weapons...I will take some people to investigate the situation."
The situation suddenly became serious.
What Cao Peng feared most happened.
The most troublesome thing is that Mr. Cao has disappeared. If something goes wrong with Mr. Cao, then all that Cao Peng has done before will be in vain.
At the same time, Cao Peng felt guilty.
If not for his persistence, how could Cao Cao have suffered a disastrous defeat?
Historically, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao had a long-term confrontation in Yanjin. However, there is no record in the history books as to how they retreated at that time. In other words, the defeat they are facing today did not originally exist.
Things have happened now...could it be said that the trajectory of history has once again deviated? Mr. Cao was very kind to Cao Peng, and could even be said to be doting on him. His life and death were more related to Cao Peng's future, so no matter what
, Cao Peng must figure out the situation, find Mr. Cao, and bring him back safely.
"Don't panic, don't panic!"
Cao Peng urged his horse to gallop, shouting loudly as he walked.
"I am Duting Colonel Cao Peng. I will stay here. As long as there is one person who has not crossed the river, I will never evacuate... Don't panic, please hurry up and cross the river. Abandon all vehicles and other debris. After crossing the river,
The imperial court will make compensation, and now everyone is crossing the river lightly."
The loud voice echoed in the night sky, but was quickly drowned out by the cries.
Fortunately, the bridgehead had received the news and began to order to speed up the crossing of the river.
Xia Houshang ran over from the river and said loudly: "Ah Fu, what is going on?"
"Yuan Jun is about to catch up. I will lead people to stop him. You tell Zidan that we must speed up the crossing of the river and deal with whatever we don't want on the spot."
After saying this, Cao Peng led Fei Qi and galloped away.
Xia Houshang was also anxious and shouted sharply on his horse: "Yuan Jun has not arrived yet. Don't panic, everyone, follow the arrangements and speed up to cross the river!"
The soldiers shouted loudly at the same time, and the people gradually stabilized.
At the same time, Cao Peng led his troops to rush eastward. The further eastward, the clearer the shouts of killing became clearer. Along the way, Cao Peng's troops were seen retreating from time to time, and they were all in a miserable state.
"Don't panic, there are still troops stationed at the bridge, so don't panic."
Cao Peng also knew that it was impossible for him to stop these broken troops. But he hoped to use this method to stabilize the broken troops. Otherwise, if they ran back in such a panic, it would inevitably make the situation on the river bank even more chaotic, which would not be good.
There will be a danger of the entire army being annihilated.
I believe Xun You and the others will respond correctly.
For Cao Peng, he must find Mr. Cao as soon as possible.
Eighteen miles eastward, you will reach Xiaotan. At this time, Xiaotan has turned into a battlefield, and you can see Yuan soldiers galloping on the battlefield chasing Cao's army everywhere. Cao Peng gritted his teeth, knocked his horse's belly with his feet, and raised his hand with his hands.
Holding a painted pole and halberd, he shouted sternly: "Fei Qi, follow me to attack."
Zhao Yebai roared loudly and ran wildly.
One hundred flying beasts followed closely behind Cao Peng, all armed with swords and spears, and burst into the Xiaotan battlefield with a rumble.
"I am Cao Peng, the captain of Duting School. My men, please hurry up and get closer to me."
Cao Peng roared, and the halberd in his hand was like a dragon emerging from the water, roaring and tearing a path of blood. The halberd flew up and down, and the clouds of the halberd rolled. Wherever it went, Yuan's army fell off their horses one after another, and only the blood was stained on the robes. The white belt illuminated the night.
With a huge impact, Yuan Jun who was blocking the way was hit with broken bones and tendons. Cao Peng's halberd turned around and slashed fiercely, and dozens of euphorbia soldiers were thrown into a pool of blood by him.
Behind Cao Peng, flying beasts roared towards him.
The iron spear stabbed fiercely, the long knife tore the armor...
In the blink of an eye, Cao Peng led his troops into the battlefield. Along the way, Cao Peng's soldiers came closer from time to time, and followed Cao Peng's rampage in the chaos.
It’s been a year!
After self-study of the Seven Changes of ***, Cao Peng found a new direction after entering the marrow cleansing stage.
His cheap master Zuo Ci, whom he had never met before, was really interested in the previous owner of this body. The *** he created was almost entirely based on the physical condition of Cao Peng's predecessor, so
It is also particularly suitable for Cao Peng. ***, the ancient holy beast. The Seven Transformations of *** were created based on the Taoist classic "The Seven Transformations of ***". For this purpose, Zuo Ci went to the mountains to observe the tigers.
