Peek at my diary, Cao Cao dominates the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 284 Defeating Ji Ling, Breaking Xiaopei

After repairing for a day, Lu Yan moved out more than 20 trebuchets. Before dawn, he began to throw stones into Ji Ling's camp.

Who can stand such a thing!
Many soldiers were awakened from sleep.

A big rock fell from the sky and collapsed the tent, killing a few unlucky ghosts. Then the whole camp began to commotion again.

Ji Ling's soldiers, who were already resentful because they didn't have enough to eat, almost bombed the camp now!
Food had been out for almost five days, and now Ji Ling only had a bowl of porridge, not to mention the soldiers.

Coupled with the harassment of Cao Jun's trebuchets, although their lethality is actually not great, the pressure on people's hearts is extremely huge.

Seeing that his soldiers had lost their morale and had no fighting spirit, Ji Ling had no choice but to order the army to retreat.

There has been no news of the soldiers sent to check the grain road. Ji Ling is sure that the grain road has been cut off by Cao Jun. He no longer has any expectations, and finally announces: "Withdraw, withdraw to Xiaopei!"

The soldiers who finally got the order to retreat finally calmed down some of the resentment in their hearts.

But I haven't eaten enough in the past few days, and my feet feel so weak when I run.

The scouts sent by Lu Yan to monitor Ji Lingjun's movement had already seen their retreat clearly.

How could Lu Yan and the others let go of such a good opportunity?

As a result, four thousand Cao's troops mobilized and stabbed at the back of Ji Ling's army, which was so flimsy even in escaping!

After charging for a while overnight, Ji Lingjun had no fighting spirit and a lack of morale, and finally could not escape the fate of being defeated.

However, Ji Ling and the others escaped for less than fifty miles, and met Zhao Yun's cavalry to commit crimes!
Zhao Yun and Xia Houlan, a group of four-legged cavalry, chased and killed the two-legged soft-footed shrimps inhumanely.

One day later, Ji Ling's remaining [-] soldiers finally fled in all directions like birds and beasts, and barely escaped the fate of being wiped out by Zhao Yun's cavalry.

Seeing the soldiers of the Yuan army fleeing all over the mountains and plains, Xia Houlan gave a "TUI" and said to herself: "A group of soft-legged shrimps are really boring. It's more interesting to fight the Huns. Playing with these people, I almost dozed off "

Zhao Yun shook his head, and said: "Ji Ling's subordinates are actually not that bad. It's just that they were cut off by the master. This group of people must have been hungry for several days. How can they fight? Ziheng, don't underestimate the enemy! "

Xia Houlan seemed to have remembered something terrible, and nodded with a serious face and replied: "Of course, I dare not forget the teacher's teaching."

"Is it because you dare not forget the pain of copying books? Hahahaha" Zhao Yun rarely teased Xia Houlan, which immediately elicited a burst of good-natured laughter from the people around him.

"Don't laugh!" Xia Houlan roared angrily.

But everyone is a life-and-death brother, how could he miss this opportunity to moles his general?

"Hahaha! General Xiahou, what is the posture of your pen?"

"I'm curious, you are so fast at juggling guns, why is it so slow to copy books?"

Xia Houlan's face turned red and then pale, and finally couldn't help but burst out: "Whoever talks too much, next time I want to copy the book again, I will definitely tell my husband, 'Bring him'!"

This move was too ruthless, and the noisy atmosphere just now became audible in an instant!

Thinking of the fear of being dominated by the teacher, many people couldn't help but grinned.
When Ji Ling returned to Xiaopei, he was unlucky, and happened to meet Zhao Yun's cavalry and was defeated again.

Of the [-] soldiers, less than [-] could be gathered in the end. Ji Ling had no time to grieve, so he led the remnant soldiers and continued to flee in panic in the direction of Xiaopei.

On the way to escape in a hurry, Ji Ling was also thinking about the gains and losses of this battle.

Why was this defeat so miserable?

After much deliberation, he still felt that this battle was not his fault, but purely because he was ruthlessly crushed by Cao Jun's new weapons.

Although there have been trebuchets for a long time, but the throwing range of the trebuchets at that time was short, and the stones thrown could only reach the size of watermelons, and they were not durable, which was very tasteless.

However, the trebuchet used by Cao Jun this time can throw a huge boulder weighing a hundred catties to a distance of two hundred steps, and the lethality has also doubled.

Wei Yan cut off Ji Ling's army's food supply, and the soldiers couldn't even fill their stomachs. Coupled with Yuan Jun's lack of faith, most of the [-]% of his combat effectiveness was lost in the end.

Zhao Yun delayed Xiao Pei's reinforcements. Although it was only delayed for two days, it was enough for Lu Yan to take advantage of the time difference to defeat Ji Ling.

"I didn't expect that in addition to a cavalry soldier who cut off our army's food road, there was also a cavalry soldier who cut off the connection between our army and Xiaopei. But the opponent is the invincible Lu Yan after all! I am not too big if I lose to him." Shame on you?" Ji Ling shook his head, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that his defeat was reasonable, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was a bit hasty for his lord to proclaim himself emperor so hastily.

"No!" Ji Ling thought about it, and suddenly shuddered, "After Lu Yan defeats me, he will definitely march to capture Xiaopei to seek alliance with Cao Cao. If I go to Xiaopei City now, it won't be another wolf jaws of death?"

Thinking of this, Ji Ling couldn't help breaking out in a layer of cold sweat. After a long time, he murmured to himself: "I should go to Pengcheng to join the army. At least Pengcheng is high and deep, and it's relatively easy to defend."

After making a decision, Ji Ling secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then shouted loudly: "Brothers, follow me to the south, let's make a detour to join the army!"

After meeting Zhao Yun, Lu Yan went straight to Xiaopei.

A few days later, when Lu Yan led his army to Xiaopei City, the spies reported that there were only [-] defenders in Xiaopei City.

Apart from anything else, the trebuchet fired at Xiaopei for two rounds, and the generals who stayed in the city abandoned the city and fled.

In the past few days, reinforcements dispatched from Wancheng and Xuchang also arrived at the border of Xuzhou one after another.

After Lu Yan left, they filled in the gaps, and when they gradually gained a firm foothold in Xuzhou, they began to slowly encroach and annex Xuzhou.

Just as Ji Ling fled south,
Yuan Shu recently dispatched Zhang Xun, Li Feng, and Le Jiu to join Chen Ji's four armies, about [-] people, and launched an attack on Pengcheng.

However, what this group of arrogant warriors did not expect was that Chen Deng, the prefect of Pengcheng, relied on [-] regular troops and tens of thousands of civilians in the city to defend him abruptly!

When Lu Yan and others arrived at Thirty Li from Pengcheng, they were all amazed at Chen Deng's talent when they heard that Pengcheng was supporting Yuan Shu's [-] troops with [-] defenders.

But there was one exception, and that was Lu Yan, who already knew how powerful Chen Deng was.

"Changsheng, what should we do next?" Xiahou Dun asked Lu Yan.

Ever since the trebuchet and the Liannu appeared and Ji Ling was defeated, Xiahou Dun used to ask Lu Yan first no matter what he did, so that the military adviser was not Xun You but Lu Yan.
Lu Yan took a telescope to observe the situation of the enemy, and said: "The enemy army is powerful, and we only have more than [-] people, and it is basically nothing if we go there."

"Then we're going to watch it like this?"

"Observe and observe the situation first."

"But what about big brother? He must be under a lot of pressure, right?!"

Xiahou Dun was a little impatient and unwilling, but Lu Yan trusted Lao Cao's ability to resist pressure, "Yuan Shu's four-way army besieged Pengcheng, although Yuan Shu might send additional reinforcements, but I believe Cao Gong can still withstand it. "

"Ah..." In desperation, Xiahou Dun could only sigh and retreat.
