"Lord, there is something strange happening in Cao's camp!" Dian Wei's voice sounded outside the tent late at night.

Chen Mo didn't fall asleep. He figured that if Cao Cao wanted to leave, he could only do it tonight, so that night, he sent almost all his scouts to closely monitor the movements of Cao Cao's army. At this moment, the first news finally came back. Chen Mo, who was kneeling behind the commander's case, carried

Liao raised his head and said: "Instruct all the generals to attack and stop Cao's army!"

"Here!"

Chen Mo stood up, stretched his muscles, took the cloak handed by his bodyguard and put it on his shoulders. Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night. Chen Mo led his bodyguard out of the camp. Looking at the dark night, Chen Mo suddenly felt melancholy.

After the Central Plains is pacified, how many people in the world still know me?

"Woo~"

The melodious sound of the horn echoed around the fields. This was the sound of Chen Mo's army heading out for battle. A group of generals under Chen Mo began to lead their troops out of the camp. As for how to send out troops, they had already made it clear during the day that this battle was going to be done.

It was not Cao Cao who was in charge, but the one who kept killing Cao's army and captured the city.

As for the troops that Cao Cao left behind, they might be able to block some of them, but there are no necessary places or strategic points on this plain for Cao Cao to block the conquest of the Guanzhong army. The next step is the battle to conquer the city. Although

It's a bit more difficult, but now the general trend has come to Chen Mo's side. Not all cities will continue to resist desperately. It is estimated that many cities will directly switch sides and surrender. And as long as there are no problems on Chen Mo's side, the war will become smoother. At this time, Cao Cao

Even if you have the power to reach heaven, it will be difficult to reverse the decline.

But I don’t know how Brother Meng De will respond?

Chen Mo looked at the pitch-black night as troops came out of the camp holding torches high, like fire dragons rushing into the night, dispersing the night and breaking the silence of the night, but he felt extremely peaceful in his heart.

At this point in the battle, as the coach, what he has to do is to make fewer or no mistakes. Although he can't think of any chance for Cao Cao to come back, things are unpredictable, and what Chen Mo has to do is try to avoid making mistakes.

"Dong dong dong~"

The rumbling war drums sounded from Cao's camp. Chen Mo, who was standing on the camp gate, frowned and looked in the direction of Cao's camp. The two sides were only two arrows apart. The sound of drums on the opposite side meant that Cao Cao also chose to go to war at this time.

Want to counterattack?

Chen Mo stood on the camp gate, looking in the direction of Cao Jun's camp. The night limited people's vision. Chen Mo could not clearly see the changes in Cao Jun. If Cao Cao had calculated his own movements and did the opposite, he chose to concentrate his troops at this time.

Attacking the camp is indeed an opportunity to make a comeback.

Chen Mo was a little surprised and doubtful. He frowned and looked at the Cao army camp in the distance. Han Qiong came to Chen Mo on flying horse. He didn't even bother to dismount and said loudly: "My lord, Cao Jun has sent out troops. Do you want to gather all the troops and horses for a decisive battle with Cao Jun?"

"

"No need!" After pondering for a moment, Chen Mo shook his head. He found that the moment he thought of withdrawing his troops to fight against the enemy, his luck did not change much. This was Cao Cao's bluff. Although this judgment may not be accurate, Chen Mo had

I am confident that even if Cao Cao does this, he can still hold the camp. Moreover, if the troops leaving the camp fail to find the main force of Cao's army and just return to outflank the enemy, it will also be a great victory!

At that moment, Chen Mo lowered his head and looked at Han Qiong and said, "Inform all the ministries and march in according to the original plan. There will naturally be people stationed here, so there is no need to worry!"

"Here!" Han Qiong agreed, rode back to the army, and continued to command the troops to attack.

On the other side, Le Jin led his troops out of the camp, but saw that Chen Mo's troops did not return to support the camp as he expected. He couldn't help but panic, and did not bother to attack Chen Mo's camp, but ordered the troops to start going crazy.

Intercept Chen Mo's various troops.

Seeing this scene, Chen Mo was completely sure that Cao Cao had begun to withdraw his troops, and immediately ordered: "Dian Wei!"

"The end is here!" Dian Wei said loudly.

"Instruct all the remaining troops in the camp to attack and take the enemy's camp directly!" Chen Mo shouted.

"Here!"

The next moment, all three armies from Chen Mo's camp came out and headed straight for Cao's camp.

Le Jin was frantically intercepting various troops with his troops, and many troops were intercepted by Le Jin. At this time, Chen Mo suddenly led an army to join the battlefield, making the already chaotic battlefield even more chaotic. Le Jin no longer had the energy to intercept other troops.

The night provided great protection for Cao's army. Although Chen Mo's army fought fiercely, in the melee, even Chen Mo's eyesight could not clearly see the entire battle situation. Therefore, the battlefield was basically fought by generals as units. Chen Mo

His commanding ability was not fully utilized in this night battle.

The fighting lasted from midnight to sunrise, and both sides' troops were somewhat exhausted. When Le Jin saw that the sky was starting to get brighter, he knew that if he continued to fight with Chen Mo, not only would he not be able to break Cao Cao's rear, but he would also have to explain what he was doing.

Here, the camp was set on fire, and the remaining troops headed east, chasing Chen Mo's troops and fighting all the way. If they encountered many troops, they would harass them, and if they encountered those with few, they would pounce on them like hungry wolves.

wipe out.

Le Jin risked his life to hold Chen Mo back. Crazy attackers appeared on all the enemies in his sight, but they were not completely mindless. The opponent used such a knives-style attack, even Chen Mo would have done it.

I have a headache, and what I fear most is this kind of enemy who doesn’t care about life and brains.

"Lord, this Le Jin is too arrogant!" Chen Mo walked all the way from Zhongmu to Yongqiu. Most of the cities along the way had been captured. When he arrived at Yongqiu, he met Cui Geng who was repairing here and looked at Chen Mo with a troubled face.

, Cui Geng's troops had 6,000 men. They had encountered Le Jin once before. They were defeated by Le Jin and had to retreat to repair. They met Chen Mo who was coming with his army.

"How many people does Le Jin have under his command?" Dian Wei was a little confused. Le Jin had been fighting for two days, so he probably didn't have many people under his command, right?

"Less than 4,000 people." Cui Geng's face brightened when he heard this. Six thousand people were defeated by more than 3,000 people, which made him feel a little embarrassed.

Le Jin initially left 20,000 people with him. Along the way, many died, ran away, and some secretly surrendered. Up to now, there are less than 4,000 people still attacking, but this kind of high-intensity combat

, it should not be able to hold on for long, and it should be at the end of the war now. Cui Geng thought the same way at the time, so he chose to join the enemy without hesitation. As a result, he was almost killed by Le Jin in the army, and the army was defeated by Le Jin.

Already.

"You are a desperado." Chen Mo sighed after hearing this. He really is a general who is desperate and invincible.

"Where is Cao Cao's main force now?" After sighing, Chen Mo asked.

"Cao Cao used a trick of doubting his troops. In addition to Le Jin, there were at least three troops pretending to be Cao Cao's main force to attract our pursuers." Cui Geng said distressedly. In the past two days, there seemed to be news about Cao's army everywhere.

It makes it difficult for them to judge where Cao Cao is.

"Yongqiu is less than two hundred miles away from Suiyang. At this moment, Cao Cao is probably close to Suiyang." Xu Shu on the side smiled and said, but he did not expect that Cao Cao would eventually escape back to Suiyang.

"So what?" Speaking of Suiyang, Dian Wei grinned and said, "There are no dangers to defend Suiyang on all sides. Once my army arrives, Suiyang will be defeated."

Dian Wei may not know about other places, but this is the area around Chenliu and Liang. Dian Wei spent time in this area when he was a ranger in his early years, and he is quite familiar with the terrain here. The place in Suiyang is really

It's not easy to defend.

"You can't tell, but you also understand this." Chen Mo heard this and glanced at Dian Wei with a smile.

"Hey, I have been following my lord for a long time. Lao Dian also knows which areas are easy to fight and which areas are difficult to fight." Dian Wei said with a smile.

"So, I'm afraid Cao Cao won't stay in Suiyang for a long time!" Chen Mo nodded. Suiyang is easy to attack and difficult to defend. Dian Wei knows it, but does Cao Cao know? I chose Suiyang before because it is the hinterland of Cao's army, so there is no need to worry.

But it is different now. After the defeat of Guandu, Cao Jun no longer has the ability to confront Chen Mo. If he continues to defend Suiyang at this time, he is seeking death.

"My lord is right. We cannot defend Suiyang for a long time. You thought that Cao Cao would use Suiyang to block our army and at the same time take this opportunity to move his center of gravity eastward." Xun You nodded.

"Where does Gongda think Cao Cao will retreat to?" Chen Mo asked.

"In the Central Plains, there is no place to defend. Now that Cao Cao's army has been defeated, he is no longer able to compete with our army. He will definitely choose a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack as a barrier. To the east of Suiyang, the place that Cao Cao can choose is already

Not much. Although Xuzhou has mountains and rivers around Xiaoguan that can be defended, most places are still plains, and our army can choose the Jianghuai area to attack, which is not advisable. I think that Cao Cao will retreat to Qingzhou and rely on the Taishan Mountains to defend, and then

Connect with Jiangdong to resist our army!" Xun You bowed.

"Qingzhou!" Chen Mo nodded. If he were Cao Cao, he would also choose this place. Not only because Cao Cao still has a large number of soldiers and horses competing with Wu Yi in the plains, but more importantly, Qingzhou is mountainous. In addition to Mount Tai,

In addition, there are Yanggu, Yuanshan, etc., and if they match the terrain, they can indeed block Chen Mo.

But it won't last long.

After a long time, Chen Mo looked up at the crowd with a smile and said: "Then let's leave Qingzhou alone and do our best to bring all the land occupied by Cao's army outside Qingzhou into our army's bag!"

As for why he didn't occupy Qingzhou before Cao Cao retreated to Qingzhou, that's because Qingzhou not only has Cao Jun's troops there, but according to the information Chen Mo knows, Cao Cao has a lot of troops stationed in Mount Tai, and Chen Mo's troops have now been scattered.

Even if he wanted to attack Qingzhou at this time, he might not be able to capture it if he changed his strategy. Instead, Sun Ce might take the opportunity to cross the Yangtze River, Huaihe River, and even Runan. It would be better to take advantage of Cao Cao's retreat and take what he can get now.

As for Cao Cao, there is only Qingzhou left, and there is no terrain as dangerous as the Yangtze River or Shushan. Chen Mo believes that after he has completely conquered the three states of Yanzhou, Yuzhou and Xuzhou and formed a double-team on Qingzhou, he can then attack
