Peek at my diary, Cao Cao dominates the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 396 Cao Ren robbed the camp
Yuan Shao currently has two relatively stable grain roads, one is from Baima to the south via Yanjin to Guandu; the other is directly from Yanjin to the south.

The name Yanjin does not only represent a ferry, but starts from Yanjin County in the south of the Yellow River North River, and goes all the way to the ferry in Huaxian County in the northeast. This area is collectively called Yanjin.

Cao Ren, Xu Huang, Le Jin and others in Hanoi County have been secretly coveting the Yanjin ferry on the north bank of the Yellow River for a long time.

Cao Ren needed to leave troops for Shi Huan to guard Hanoi, so he only brought [-] soldiers with him on this trip, not many troops.

Yuan Shao didn't attack Hanoi County, but he wanted to go straight to Cao Cao and make a quick decision, but he didn't expect to lose two generals when he first arrived in Baima Yanjin, and now his main force was dragged into the quagmire of the war of attrition by Cao Cao middle.

Yuan Shao left [-] defenders at Yanjin Ferry and Baima Ferry respectively.

Among them, the Yanjin Ferry was guarded by General Jiang Qi.

Jiang Qi has been strengthening the fortifications of the Yanjin Ferry during this time, and the scouts are active day and night, and the defense is impeccable, so Cao Ren and others have never been able to find a chance to attack.

However, Cao Jun's scouts detected a very important piece of news today, which made Cao Ren finally make up his mind to send troops.

In a forest, Cao Ren's army was taking a short rest.

Taking advantage of the rest time, Cao Ren called Le Jin and Xu Huang together, and expressed his thoughts, "Yuan Jun will have 10,000+ stone grain and grass passing through Yanjin tonight, so I decided to send troops to attack and destroy their grain and grass !"

Xu Huang was the most stable. After thinking for a while, he replied: "Yuan Jun's defense is tight, with so much food and grass. Will they take precautions?"

"I think this is a god-given opportunity, Gongming, are you being too cautious?" Le Jin said disapprovingly.

Cao Ren was the main general, and finally he made up his mind: "If we can destroy hundreds of thousands of stones and grains, Yuan Jun's pressure will increase sharply, and the pressure on my lord will decrease accordingly. We must act tonight, and we must take advantage of the grain to return." Destroy them before crossing the Yellow River!"

"Here!" Seeing that Cao Ren had made up his mind, Xu Huang and Le Jin clasped their fists together to accept the order, turned around and left and got ready.

Night is coming soon.

In the woods, more than [-] soldiers had already had their fill, and they were waiting quietly in the woods, sharpening their knives.

Cao Ren stood on the edge of the forest, looking at the direction of Yanjin Ferry from a distance, his face as calm as water, there was a trace of murderous intent quietly gathering.

Time passed slowly, and before you knew it, it was late at night.

There is no moon tonight, which is a good day for murder and arson.

It was almost time, and Cao Ren immediately heard the sound of footsteps behind him.

He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "The time has come, brothers, act according to plan!"

Behind Xu Huang Lejin and 1 soldiers followed closely. The [-] people did not make the slightest sound except for the sound of footsteps. They were as quiet as an army of ghosts.

Cao Jun quickly marched towards the ferry ten miles away, and the night was their best cover.

When he was more than one mile away, Cao Ren saw the flames of the ferry in the distance.

"They're delivering food overnight!"

Seeing this, Cao Ren no longer hesitated, pointed his long knife forward, and shouted sharply: "Brothers, attack!"

Le Jin raised the spear, stretched out his scarlet tongue and licked his chapped lips, showing a slightly crazy smile, "Brothers, charge with me!"

Xu Huang was carrying the great axe, without any expression on his face, he just yelled one word concisely: "Go!"

Ten thousand soldiers began to accelerate, and then sprinted at full speed!
The distance of 500 meters is only two to three minutes under the soldiers sprinting at full speed.

After Yuan Jun heard the shocking cry of killing and reacted, Cao Jun's soldiers had already begun to climb over the trench outside the camp.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

"It's Cao Jun! It's Cao Jun who killed him!"

It was hard to see how many enemies there were in the dark, and Yuan Jun was already in a mess in a panic, running around and screaming indiscriminately.

However, when Cao Ren and others led their soldiers into Yuan Jun's camp and overturned several tents in a row, they found that there was no one in the tents, only piles of dry firewood!

Cao Ren looked around again, and saw that there were only a few dozen people running around and shouting for the enemy to attack.

Cao Ren's scalp tingled immediately, and he reacted and shouted: "No! It's a trap!"

Before Cao Ren could yell to retreat, there was a sound of clappers, and Yuan Jun's shouts of killing came from outside the camp!
"Kill!"

"Kill the thief!"

"Wu Na Cao, if you don't get off your horse and kneel down, when will you wait?!"

In the night, Cao Jun was ambushed, and there were shouts of killing from all directions, and the soldiers were unavoidably panicked and panicked.

Three generals, Jiang Qi, Zhang Nan, and Jiao Touch, came out of the darkness from three directions respectively!
Xu Huang and Le Jin led the troops to gather around Cao Ren. Cao Ren suddenly said to Xu Huang with some guilt: "I regret not listening to what General Xu said. Yuan Jun really set up an ambush. Now there are shouts of killing from all directions in the southeast, northwest, and we don't know the enemy." Reality, what should we do now?"

Seeing the growing flames around him, Xu Huang turned his head and said to Cao Ren, "General, we'd better find a direction and try our best to break through immediately. The longer we delay, the worse it will be for our army!"

Cao Ren continued to ask: "In your opinion, which direction should we break out of?"

"We will attack from the west, and the enemy will definitely prevent us from going back the same way. I am afraid they will gather heavy troops at the west gate." Speaking of this, Xu Huang pointed to the front and said: "We will attack towards the east!"

"Okay!" Cao Ren chose to follow Xu Huang's suggestion this time, raised his sword and shouted again, "Brothers, follow me to break out of the encirclement!"

Just as Xu Huang expected, Yuan Jun's three armies all converged towards the west gate, which is the gate through which Cao Jun entered.

Under normal circumstances, after being frightened, people will subconsciously avoid unknown situations; after the army is ambushed, most of them will choose the same way to retreat.

However, Cao Jun was shocked and not chaotic this time. Under Xu Huang's suggestion, he rushed in another direction, which made Yuan Jun's wishful thinking come to nothing.

After rushing out of the fire and out of the east gate of the camp, Cao Ren found that there were only a few hundred soldiers of Yuan Jun outside the gate clamoring with all their might.

After killing them, Cao Ren said fearfully: "Fortunately, I have listened to Xu Huang's suggestion this time. If I go back the same way, I might really be surrounded by Yuan Jun."

After Cao Ren led the army out of the ambush, he fled towards the east, that is, the lower reaches of the Yellow River, without looking back.

Yuan Jun couldn't catch up, and finally had to retreat angrily.

In the camp, Yuan Jun's soldiers quickly extinguished the fire.

Zhang Nan and Jiao Touch surrounded Jiang Qi, and said with a little excitement and a little regret in their tone: "The general has a clever plan, and Cao Jun really came to rob the camp. It's just a pity that General Cao also had some courage and rushed from the east. go out."

Although Jiang Qi also had some regrets in his heart, he quickly calmed down and said, "Everyone, although Cao Jun escaped, he had to guard against it."

Then Jiang Qi looked at Zhang Nan and said: "General Zhang, General Jiao, I need to trouble you two to continue to supervise the transportation of the grain and grass. The sooner the grain is delivered to the Lord, the sooner we can feel at ease."

"Here!"

After Jiang Qi made arrangements, he led his soldiers to pack up the camp.

But what Jiang Qi, Cao Ren and others could not have imagined was that during the short half an hour of their confrontation,
There is also a group of people hidden in the dark, who saw their whole process clearly!

"Jie the camp, you still have to look at me, Gan Xingba!"
