Three Kingdoms: Do you call this a weak counselor? !

Chapter 66 Liu Guan and Zhang go to battle! (Please subscribe)

The leading general is Xiahou Dun!
Cao Bao and Xu Dan saw that it was Xiahou Dun and led their troops to block the way.

When I saw the soldiers led by Xiahou Dun, they were all elite, and I was immediately shocked.

There was a bad premonition that came to mind.

But after thinking about the information I got about what happened to Yanzhou.

These uneasiness in my heart were quickly suppressed.

They felt that what they were seeing was just a trapped beast fight arranged by Cao Cao.

These people look calm, but in fact they are already panicking, so there is nothing to be afraid of!

At that moment, the two men mustered up their courage and commanded their troops to fight Xiahou Dun.

As a result, there was no real battle with Xiahou Dun.

Only the sounds of gongs and drums were heard in the mountains and forests on both sides of the rear.

Three groups of soldiers and horses came to attack!

Le Jin is on the left, Cao Ren is on the right, and Xia Houyuan is on the rear.

Four soldiers and horses directly surrounded them and started fighting!

Cao Bao and Xu Dan, who had just summoned up the courage, were shocked when they saw this scene.

At this time, no matter how stupid they are, they still know that they have fallen into Cao Cao's trick!

As the generals, they were in such a panic, let alone the many soldiers under their command.

All of a sudden they were all in a mess, with no fighting spirit at all.

Faced with the fighting between Xiahou Dun, Xia Houyuan, Lejin Cao Ren and others, they quickly began to flee in all directions.

Xu Dan and Cao Bao also fought hard in fear, and with the soldiers around them, they began to break out of the encirclement.

At this time, they no longer wanted to accomplish any extraordinary feats.

I just want to lead the soldiers and horses to charge out as quickly as possible and escape with my life.

At this time, they really regretted why they and others wanted to take credit!
I want to come and pursue Cao Cao and make great achievements.

If Liu Bei and Liu Xuande from outside were allowed to lead troops to pursue Cao Cao, wouldn't it be Liu Bei who was defeated this time?

On Cao Cao's side, he calculated with his mind but not with care, and was well prepared.

Even more advantage in numbers.

How easy would it be for Cao Bao and Xu Dan to rush out under such circumstances?

After a lot of fighting, Xu Dan ran into Le Jin head-on.

Le Jin summoned his might and came at him with a sword. Xu Dan had no time to dodge and was cut off by Le Jin with his sword!

Kill the soldiers around him...

Cao Bao finally escaped with his troops in a very thrilling way.

When he escaped, only 23 people were left with him.

This battle.Cao Bao was frightened to death and didn't dare to stop any longer.

Along the way, like a lost dog or a fish that slipped through the net, he tried his best to escape forward.

He was afraid that if he ran too slowly, he would be intercepted and killed by Cao Cao's men again, and his life would be lost.

After the fight, Xiahou Dun, Xia Houyuan, Le Jin and others all looked happy.

This battle was really enjoyable!

Previously, most of Tao Qian's soldiers were huddled in the city and refused to come out to fight.

Attacking a city is too laborious, how could it be as enjoyable as killing now?

"My lord, the last general has requested a battle and is willing to lead the army immediately to fight back to Tancheng.

At this time, Tao Qian's two great generals, one dead and the other fled.

Most of the Danyang soldiers he relied on suffered heavy casualties, and Tancheng was very empty.

If you lead your troops to attack at this time, you will definitely achieve miraculous results! "

Xiahou Dun faced Cao Cao, clasped his fists and saluted, and asked for battle, his voice passionate.

After Xiahou Dun spoke out, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren and others also spoke out to ask Cao Cao for a fight.

They all want to take advantage of the victory just now and take down Tancheng in one go.

It would be best to deal with Tao Qian!

However, to their surprise, Cao Cao shook his head and refused.

“There are still many soldiers and horses in Tancheng.

I heard that Liu Bei also led troops to garrison in Tancheng.

Liu Bei should not be underestimated, especially the red-faced and long-bearded Guan Yu who is led by him, and he is even more powerful.

Although Xu Dan and Cao Bao were defeated at this time.

But with Liu Bei and others guarding Tancheng, it was unlikely that they would take the opportunity to capture Tancheng. "

Xiahou Dun said:

“Lord, if we don’t take the opportunity to capture Tancheng at this time.

If Tao Qian is allowed to react and gather his strength, it will be even more difficult for us to take Tancheng next. "

Cao Cao smiled and said:
“Don’t be in a hurry, just wait a moment.

I think if we wait a little longer, it will be easier for us to take Tancheng next. "

After Cao Cao said these words, Xiahou Dun and others were confused for a moment.

I wonder what Cao Cao meant by this?
Only Xi Zhicai and Guo Jia, who were standing next to Cao Cao, looked calm.

Obviously, it was a countermeasure that the two of them discussed with Cao Cao before this.

Cao Cao didn't think about what he was trying to do, so he immediately said to Xiahou Dun and others:

“There was turmoil in Yanzhou, and Mr. Gao Jiu tried to turn the tide.

We had to rush eight hundred miles to get the news.

Tao Qian must have not received the news yet.

And even if you get it, I'm afraid you won't believe it.

Then they must have concluded that we will lead the army back to Yanzhou this time.

At this time, the soldiers and horses who came to pursue us had already been severely defeated by us.

You must feel that next, our side will mobilize elite troops and horses to rush to Yanzhou with all our strength, and will not take more precautions behind.

So if they attack at this time, they will definitely be able to take advantage of it.

Caught us off guard.

However, the real situation is that the situation in Yanzhou is no longer in danger.

We might as well do the opposite, continue to ambush here, and give the other party a big surprise.

As a result, Xuzhou will have fewer soldiers and horses to fight!
There must be emptiness over there in Tancheng.

Going to get Tancheng again, it can be said that it is at your fingertips and easy! "

After hearing what Cao Cao said, Xiahou Dun thought for a while and said:
"Lord, is this...this kind of thing really possible?
Cao Bao and Xu Dan were defeated so miserably.

Among them, Xu Dan was even beheaded.

They have suffered such a big loss, will they fall for the same trick again? "

Cao Cao laughed and said:

"If the person who came to chase him for the first time was Liu Bei, he would have been beaten so miserably by us.

Next, Cao Bao and Xu Dan would definitely not dare to lead their troops out to pursue them.

But now it is Liu Bei who remains in Tancheng, and things will inevitably be very different.

Although Liu Bei has always been depressed, he is a man with great ambitions and should not be underestimated.

I think there is a high possibility that he will make this choice. "

When everyone saw that Cao Cao had made a decision, they stopped talking.

According to Cao Cao's order, preparations began, waiting for Liu Bei to surrender.

But compared to the last time when they were full of confidence, this time Xiahou Dun and many others had doubts about Cao Cao's arrangement...

……

On the Tancheng side, Cao Bao hurried back with some of his defeated troops.

After learning that he had been ambushed and suffered heavy losses, General Xu Dan even died.

Tao Qian couldn't help being shocked, and he couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of blood!

Unlike Tao Qian, Liu Bei's heart was filled with joy.

While Liu Bei was happy, he was also greatly shocked.

Chen Deng’s view has become even more different.Originally, he felt that Chen Deng was a very talented person.

If he could get Chen Deng, many things would be different for him in the future.

Now, Chen Deng had predicted the direction of the battle before the war, which made his view of Chen Deng different.

At the same time, he also agreed more and more with the plan that Chen Deng proposed when he met him before.

I feel that I can indeed go after Cao Cao as Chen Deng said.

This is a golden opportunity for him!

Here in Tancheng, Xuzhou, people are now in panic.

Tao Qian once again lay on the hospital bed, looking very anxious.

He was so angry that he wanted to kill Cao Bao.

But if Cao Bao is killed, there will be no one available to him.

So I had no choice but to endure this thought.

Many people were trying to persuade Tao Qian to leave Tancheng as soon as possible, abandon Tancheng, and withdraw his troops to Xiapi and other places farther south.

Because Cao Cao won such a big victory.

Next, there is a great possibility that troops and horses will be sent to attack Tan Cheng.

As a result, it is basically impossible for them to defend Tancheng.

As a result, at this time of panic, Liu Bei stood up.

He expressed to Tao Qian that he was willing to lead his troops again to pursue Cao Cao.

Cao Cao must be defeated to resolve the crisis in Tancheng.

Tao Qian really didn't expect that Liu Bei would take the initiative to take on the important responsibility at this time.

He was very excited and supported his body, sat up from the hospital bed, took Liu Bei's hand and said:
"Xuande, this trip is too dangerous.

Cao Cao's thieves used their troops cunningly and unpredictable.

The two generals, Cao and Xu, had just experienced a major defeat.

If you lead the troops at this time, I'm afraid... I'm afraid it will be too dangerous. "

Tao Qian said seriously.

"At the invitation of Tao Gong, I led troops to Xuzhou to help Tao Gong resist Cao Cao.

Before that, there had been no effort.

Now that we are at a critical moment, you should step forward! "

Tao Qian was deeply moved when he heard Liu Bei's words.

Cao Bao, who had narrowly escaped death, sneered in his heart when faced with Liu Bei's invitation to fight.

I feel that Liu Bei is simply looking for death.

He and Xu Dan had already proved to him through personal experience that Cao Cao's traitors were pretending to withdraw their troops.

I have already suffered such a big failure.

But at this time, he led his troops to pursue Cao Cao. He was really stupid!
However, he didn't say anything out loud.

With Liu Bei leading his troops to chase Cao Cao, Tancheng would be much more relaxed regardless of victory or defeat.

Liu Bei's actions at this time caused many people to change their perception of him.

If nothing else, his courage is very commendable.

After Liu Bei asked for battle, he quickly organized his troops and led Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun with thousands of troops under his command.

More than 1000 soldiers and horses supported by Tao Qian left the city and chased in the direction of Cao Cao's retreat...

……

"Brother, are we a little hasty in pursuing Cao Cao at this time?"

During the march, Guan Yu couldn't help but look at Liu Bei and ask.

After Guan Yu spoke, Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun also turned their attention to Liu Bei, waiting for Liu Bei's explanation.

The two of them also seemed very puzzled by this.

They all felt that Liu Bei's consideration this time was somewhat inappropriate.

Liu Bei heard this and said:
“I have my own concerns about this matter.

Cao Cao is used to using troops, even if the situation in Yanzhou is very critical.

He could also predict that there would be a large number of soldiers and horses chasing him in Xuzhou.

Therefore, he will definitely leave behind elite men to deal with the troops coming from Xuzhou in the rear.

Now, he has won such a big victory.

Cao Cao will definitely feel that we dare not pursue any more.

The situation in Yanzhou appears to be very critical.

Therefore, they will transfer the elite troops and horses left behind and speed up to Yanzhou to solve the situation in Yanzhou.

Those who stayed behind were the old and weak and those who had not fought.

At this time, if we lead the troops to pursue them, we will definitely be able to catch the opponent off guard.

After all, no matter what, they never imagined that we would dare to use troops against them under such circumstances. "

After saying that, Liu Bei said again:
“And, judging from the news we’ve got now.

After Cao Cao defeated Xu Dan and Cao Bao, he did not organize his troops and took advantage of the situation to counterattack Tancheng and other places.

This proves from another aspect that the situation in Yanzhou is indeed critical.

Cao Cao has led more elite troops back to Yanzhou to rescue.

Otherwise, he would never give up this golden opportunity. "

After hearing Liu Bei's words, Guan Yu and Zhao Yun couldn't help but nod along with them, and were greatly impressed in their hearts.

Guan Yu said:
"Big brother is indeed a big brother, he thinks so comprehensively, it really makes sense.

This pursuit of Cao Cao can be said to be a surprise, and we will definitely win. "

Zhao Yun also praised Liu Bei and expressed his admiration for Liu Bei's wisdom.

Liu Bei said:

"There are quite a few of these, Mr. Yuan Long told me."

Zhang Fei next to him reacted slowly. For a moment, he didn't understand what Liu Bei said.

However, when they saw Guan Yu and Zhao Yun both starting to praise their eldest brother, they acted as if they were very understanding.

Then he said:

"Me too!"

After Liu Bei's explanation, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun and others were full of confidence in their next actions.

They were all waiting to give Cao Cao a hard time.

certainly.Zhao Yun's thoughts are very different from those of Zhang Fei and Guan Yu.

In fact, at this time, Zhao Yun no longer wanted to fight Cao Cao.

Because after coming to Xuzhou, he learned more and more about Cao Cao.

Everyone knows what Cao Cao did in Xuzhou?

To be honest, Zhao Yun admired Cao Cao very much for what he had done.

I think Cao Cao is a very good person.

Only this time, he was ordered by Gongsun Zan to lead troops to help Liu Bei rescue Xuzhou.

So even if you feel unwilling to do so, you can only hold it back.

With troops and horses, he worked with Liu Bei, Guan Yu and others.

The army moved forward, and Liu Bei and others were very fast.

Two days later, they pursued for nearly 150 miles.

Looking ahead, some soldiers and horses under Cao Cao appeared.

And it seems that they are indeed old, weak, sick and disabled.

Liu Bei, Guan Yu and others couldn't help but feel overjoyed.

Liu Bei did not hesitate and immediately said:

"Pass my order to my men to speed up the pursuit and prepare to reap the rewards of war!"

As a result, after chasing for another mile or two, we only heard the sound of gongs and drums.

In the mountains and forests on both sides, there were soldiers and horses charging out of each other!
