Grassroots Overlord of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 427 Cao Jun's Arrangement of Resistance

When they led the remnants of Cao's army to retreat to Runan City and rely on the city to resist the pursuit of Sun Liu's allied forces, they saved their lives. 100,000 Cao soldiers, only 20,000 of whom succeeded in escaping back to Runan City in the end. At this time, Sun Liu's allied forces did not have siege equipment, so they could only look at the city and sigh.

However, because Liu Bei has been in Runan City for many years, the local people heard that Uncle Liu led the troops back, so they secretly gave Liu Bei a large amount of food and fodder. At the same time, the people of Runan City also did not support Cao's army's defense of the city. They were perfunctory and procrastinating on Cao's army's orders such as food collection.

Two days after the siege of Runan City, Liu Bei led his headquarters to leave Runan City and go to Jingzhou City on the grounds of calming down the chaos in Jingzhou. Subsequently, Jiangdong army generals Gao Shun and Sulman saw that there was no hope of attacking the city, and they also returned the same way.

Another way of pursuit: Because Zhou Yu and Huang Gai, the main generals of the Jiangdong Army, were injured by Cao Zhang, the generals of the Cao army, the command of the Lu Army fell into the hands of Tai Shici. At the beginning, Taishi Ci also wanted to lead the main force to disperse the Cao army in one fell swoop, but because it was Cao Zhang and the "first dead man" who were responsible for the break of the Cao army, Tai Shici could only give up: Cao Zhang's "shadowless broken arrow" was too lethal, and the first dead man was Xiaoqiang who could not be killed! Eight hundred self-injury and one thousand enemies. Tai Shici won't do such a deal.

In case Cao's army reacted from fear and then gathered troops to counterattack, Taishici's side only had 30,000 troops. That result was absolutely not what Taishici could bear, even if the casualties ratio of both sides was one to five!

Seeing that the effect of the pursuit was not great, Tai Shici was afraid that Cao's army would organize troops to counterattack, so he wanted to stop the pursuit and lead the army back. However, there was top-secret news from another army: Cao Cao was in the Cao army he was chasing... At the strong request of Cheng Pu and others, a veteran general in Jiangdong, Taishici had to bravely lead 30,000 Jiangdong soldiers to continue to pursue the retreating Cao army.

Let's talk about Cao Cao. Since Cao Cao witnessed the fire burning from the warship to the camp on land, Cao Cao Cao fell into a state of hysterical madness. Although he was forcibly taken away from the battlefield by the bodyguard Xu Zhu, Cao Cao has been roaring like a shrew. When Cao Cao was exhausted, Cao Cao's physical strength was gone, but his reason was restored. From early morning to noon, he didn't say a word, but his eyes were dull and stunned.

At this time, Changshi Xunyu came over and said to Cao Cao in a low voice, "King of Wei, don't pay attention to the victory or defeat for a while... Leave the green mountain without worrying about firewood..."

Cao Cao slowly turned his head and looked at Xun Yu, and then nodded with tears in his eyes.

"The king of Wei, my subordinates have ordered the troops in Jiankang City and the southern battlefield of Qingzhou to retreat..." Xun Yu also looked at Cao Cao with wet eyes and said in a slightly trembling voice, "King of Wei, Cao Zhang, the commander in charge of the break, shot Zhou Yu and Huang Gai, the chief general of the Jiangdong Army... Congratulations to the King of Wei, Ling Lang's arrow skills have entered. To the realm of the divine archer..."

When Cao Cao heard this, he took a breath and slowly reversed his mind. He asked Xun Yu softly, "Xun Changshi, where have we been at this time? Who will command the pursuers behind? ..."

"To the king of Wei, we have entered the boundary of Lujiang at this time. If we continue to march for a hundred miles, we will successfully reach Lujiang County..." Xun Yu felt that Cao Cao's mood had returned to normal, and he was very gratified, "King of Wei, the general of the Jiangdong army who chased us at this time is Donglai Taishi Ci!"

"Well, Donglai Taishi Ci is a difficult character, a rare bow-horse skilled fierce general..." Cao Cao's eyes flashed and said slowly.

At this time, 100,000 soldiers of Cao's army were retreating neatly in an open plain area. Cao Cao looked around the environment, and then said thoughtfully, "Xun Changshi, if Tai Shici doesn't know whether it's good or not, and continues to pursue us, we can use the powerful terrain and the advantages of many soldiers to stop the pursuit of Tai Shici here..."

"Ouch!" Xun Yuton ordered the leader, and then he rode his horse away from Cao Cao's side to arrange a blocking battle. At this time, Jia Xu, the military division, rushed over and drove side by side with Cao Cao.

Cao Cao took a look at Jia Xu, and then said to himself, "Jia Jijiu, I never thought that the Battle of Red Cliff was the result!" Hey, why did I become Yuan Shao in the end?! ..."

Jia Xu didn't know how to respond when he heard Cao Cao's remarks. He just looked at Cao Cao sadly. After the two were silent for a while, Jia Xu pretended to be bold and said, "King of Wei, our enemies are too sinister and cunning. Their plots are endless and can't be prevented... If it weren't for Wolong Zhuge Liang, how could Sun Liu's allied army be our opponent?! King Wei, as far as I know, no one can change the wind direction of the season in this world, but there are master people in this world who can use spells to instantly increase the wind speed... Obviously, Wolong Zhuge Liang has this ability..."

"Uh-huh..." Cao Cao finally accepted the reality of failure at this time: if it weren't for the sudden change in the wind direction, if it weren't for the instantaneous intensification of the wind speed, it wouldn't make the brave Cao army at fighting at a loss... With the help of the wind, it's really can't be resisted by manpower. As the saying goes, there is no water and fire. Love!

Cao Cao felt that he was not defeated by the enemy, but by God and Zhuge Liang alone! Just in Cao Cao's meditation, Xia Houshang personally drove a carriage over.

Jia Xu glanced over and knew that the carriage was collected by Xia Houshang from a nearby market town. Although the carriage is shabby, it can still cover the cold wind. Finally, Cao Cao transferred from the BMW to the carriage, and then Xia Houshang personally set up the carriage and continued to travel.

At this time, Changshi Xunyu had arranged a blocking battle. Da Xiahou and Zhang Kui were responsible for the blocking battle. Zhang Liao could not participate in the war at this time because he was shot by Taishi Ci. The task of blocking the battle was conveyed, and the formation of 100,000 Cao's army began to change in the march: half of the cavalry slowed down the speed of marching, and the spear battalion that restrained the cavalry was separated from the marching team...

At this time, according to the information held by the senior officials of Cao's army, the pursuers behind are only 30,000, and only the main general Tai Shici is a super general. And the powerful Cao army, even in the case of defeat, can still arrange three super generals to fight with 50,000 elite soldiers and strong generals... The strength of the two sides is so different that the morale of the Cao army participating in the war has gradually improved: they can't fight the fire, can't they beat people? Fight in the plain and look at the world. Who is the opponent of Cao's army at this time?!

Cao Jun's tiger and leopard rider, Qingzhou Iron Gun Battalion, its combat effectiveness is not boasted.

Cao Zhang, who was in charge of the break, heard that his father Cao Cao had arranged a blocking battle, so he ordered the thousands of tigers and leopards who accompanied him to slow down their retreat. In the march, he ate dry food and drank water on the back of the horse to restore his physical strength, and then suddenly hit the enemy... An hour later, Cao Zhang could see the large army in front of him, and he could see it in the back. To the pursuers.

At this time, Tai Shici also saw the tiger and leopard riding of Cao's army. Because of his excellent eyesight, he also saw the main force of Cao's army farther away. He was afraid of falling into the resistance of Cao's army, and he also ordered his subordinates to slow down. Of course, his order made the veteran Cheng Pu and others unhappy: the enemy was close in front of him. Why didn't Taishici let go, but hesitated? ... If you wait for the frightened Cao Jun to come to his senses, isn't it asking for trouble? At this time, Cao Jun is a falling dog...

Of course, Tai Shici can feel the dissatisfaction of the veteran Cheng Pu. He didn't explain too much to Cheng Pu. However, after the team continued to move forward for two miles, Cheng Pu himself saw the main force of Cao's army. At this time, Cao Zhang, who was responsible for the break, had led thousands of tigers and leopards to ride around the whole horse and stood quietly in the distance and looked at them coldly.

"Taishi Dudu, the enemy seems to have arranged the blocking battle..." The veteran Cheng Pu pointed to the dark Cao army formation in his sight and reminded Tai Shici in time.

"Well, I have seen it..." Tai Shici looked calmly at the main force of Cao's army surging towards the tide. Just as he was about to order his troops to retreat, he suddenly felt a black dot move quickly from the northeast of the vast plain. At the same time, a kind of affection with blood thicker than water was born in his heart, getting heavier and heavier.

Oh, it turned out that Zhao Yun also led the "Wodang Flying Army" to come here... Tai Shici knew that the black spot was the Wudang Flying Army led by Zhao Yun. Since Zhao Yun dares to lead 2,000 cavalry to rush into the main force of the Cao army, and if he leads 30,000 elite soldiers and strong generals to retreat, it will be too lost... If Zhao Yun is surrounded by Cao's army, whose morale and fighting spirit are gradually restored, can he turn a blind eye to it and die? ...Maybe Zhuge Liang's special training of the "no flying army" is the same as the "falling camp", with extraordinary combat ability...

Between the lightning and flints, Tai Shici made up his mind. He summoned his true anger and ordered the soldiers behind him, "All the children obey the order, advance at full speed, and attack the enemy!" Don't die!"

The veteran listened to Tai Shici's order and muttered in his heart: It was you who slowed down the attack before, but now it is clear that the enemy has set up a formation to deal with it, and it is you who ordered the forced attack... At this time, Cheng Pu saw with his own eyes that the main cavalry of Cao's army had come from the two wings...

At this time, if half of the troops of the Jiangdong Army were Taishici's direct troops, Cheng Puzhen had reason to doubt whether Taishici's forced attack would have other ulspeakable purposes. This is obviously a reckless and stupid act of touching stones with eggs!

Cheng Pu didn't know what medicine was sold in Taishici's gourd, but he knew that he could doubt Taishici's intention, but he could not refuse Taishici's order at this time. The military order is like a mountain.

Of course, Cheng Pu also saw a group of 2,000 cavalry coming rapidly in the distance. He thought it was Cao's reinforcements. If it is a friendly army, can they be as bold as Tai Shici to attack tens of thousands of enemies with 2,000 cavalry? That's either a brain water, or a donkey kick...

When Tai Shici led thousands of cavalry to charge the enemy at full speed, Cao Zhang also led thousands of tigers and leopards to rush. Thousands of meters behind Cao Zhang's headquarters camp, tens of thousands of soldiers are rushing. Cao Zhang wondered while charging: The other party knew that he had a support force, why did the other party dare to confront him? This is not brave, but bold...

At this time, if you look down from a high altitude: the two cavalry teams of Tai Shici and Cao Zhang are like two gray clouds floating, and the support force thousands of meters behind Cao Zhang is like a lobster: the two-wing cavalry is the double pliers of the lobster, and the infantry in the middle is the body of the lobster. This lobster is not retreating, but moving forward rapidly.

In the dust, the earth is trembling. Due to the large number of Cao's troops, their killings obviously covered the shouts of the Jiangdong Army.
