Beast King Three Kingdoms

() (The collection is about to break through, come on!)

"Report!... General! A large number of Yuan troops have sneaked into our rear."

"Report? Report what a fart! Break through the siege quickly, or you will die!" Cao Hong cursed angrily, and then hurriedly ordered the army to break out of the siege.

It was Mao Jie who was attacking from the rear. Cao Hong led his troops, Mao Jie had already noticed, but he ignored him, let him go, and slowly fell behind.

After Xu Chu attacked, Mao Jie saw that Xuzhou's army had stopped advancing, so he immediately led his troops to raid the rear.

After such a flanking attack, the Xuzhou army was defeated, and countless people fled in all directions.

Xu Chu and Mao Jie naturally refused to give up, and led their troops to pursue them vigorously.

In a great battle, the Xuzhou army killed more than [-] people, and more than [-] were captured.

Satisfied with the brilliant results, Xu Chu and Mao Jie ordered the army to clean up the battlefield, and then escorted the surrendered troops to the camp.

It is said that Cao Hong broke out of the encirclement and led the remnant soldiers to Xuyi City in a hurry.

Not long after, another group of people appeared in front of them.

Cao Hong was heartbroken, thinking it was the same as last time, he glanced at the rear cautiously, and then commanded the army to rush forward desperately.

This group of people is actually the army led by Dian Wei and Chen Ji.

The two were ordered to lie in ambush here, and wait for the soldiers and horses from Xuyi City to arrive, and fight out together.

Because Chen Deng didn't send many soldiers and horses to support them, Dian Wei and Chen Ji easily defeated these supporting soldiers without any effort, almost none of them were spared.

Afterwards, Dian Wei and Chen Ji led the troops to rest again, waiting for Xu Chu and Mao Jie to return to the camp together.

But he didn't want to wait for Xu Chu and Mao Jie, but ushered in Cao Hong's defeated army.

Chen Deng sent less than [-] troops to support them. Dian Wei and Chen Ji were happy to kill them, and they were depressed. Seeing Cao Hong's defeated army arrive, they were immediately overjoyed.

Immediately, Dian Wei and Chen Ji didn't care about anything else, and led their troops to charge over.

"The thieves will stop leaving! Your master Dian is here." Dian Wei went straight to Cao Hong, riding alone.

Now Cao Hong just wanted to reach Xuyi City as soon as possible, and he didn't even have the intention to laugh at Chen Deng, so naturally he wouldn't go to fight Dian Wei.

Under the protection of his own soldiers, Cao Hong struggled to break through and charged forward.

Although he was defeated by Xu Chu and Mao Jie, Cao Hong still brought out more than 1 horses, while the Dianwei and Chen Ji armies combined only had 1. He wanted to completely swallow Cao Hong's [-] people , is obviously impossible.

However, Cao Hong didn't know the details, and thought Yuan Jun wanted to attack back and forth again, so he was very nervous, so he led his own soldiers out of the encirclement regardless of the army, and fled on his own.

Dian Wei and Chen Ji were dumbfounded, and thought strangely: "Is this too straightforward?"

Seeing Cao Hong fleeing, the remaining ten thousand Xuzhou troops lost all morale.

The main generals ran away, and Dian Wei and Chen Ji didn't bother to fight any more, so they forced Xuzhou's army to lay down their weapons and surrender.

Naturally, they would not seek death if they had a chance to survive. All the soldiers threw down their weapons and knelt down to beg for surrender.

The dramatic battle can't even be called a battle. Yuan Jun won a big victory, and Dian Wei and Chen Ji ordered people to confiscate the Xuzhou Army's soldiers and weapons.

Not long after, Xu Chu and Mao Jie led the army to arrive. The four of them joined forces and came to the camp.

It is said that Cao Hong broke through the encirclement, and there were only less than three thousand soldiers around him.

The [-] army lost [-]% of the damage, but Cao Hong didn't care. To him, saving his life was more important than anything else.

Deeply afraid of Yuan Jun's pursuit, Cao Hong ordered the army to move quickly.

In the evening, I finally arrived at Xuyi City.

At this time, Yuan Shu's army had already withdrawn, so Cao Hong's three thousand troops easily entered the city.

Chen Deng couldn't believe his eyes when he saw that Cao Hong only brought three thousand remnants and defeated generals.

"General Cao! Why..."

Before Chen Deng could finish his question, Cao Hong rushed to say: "I didn't expect Yuan Jun to ambush twice, so that he was defeated."

"Does General Cao know how much Yuan Jun has?" Chen Deng frowned. Although he had already made preparations for Cao Hong's reinforcements to lose troops and generals, this was too exaggerated. Thirty thousand to three thousand was simply not proportional.

"I don't know, there are about [-] to [-], or even more." Cao Hong also knew that his performance was too frustrating, but in order not to lose face in front of Chen Deng, he deliberately exaggerated the number of Yuan Jun.

Chen Deng was speechless. Yuan Shu only had [-] soldiers in this expedition. The detectives had already found out the matter. Cao Hong said that Yuan Jun had [-] to [-] people, or even more.

"Could it be that what I saw today was a ghost?" After glaring at Cao Hong, Chen Deng was too lazy to talk to him.

Now the reinforcements have arrived, but [-] soldiers are really a drop in the bucket, and it is impossible to relieve the danger of Xuyi City.

"It seems that the only way left is to abandon the city!" Xuyi City was bombarded by catapults all day long, and the hearts of all the troops were shrouded in an indescribable fear. If it goes on for a long time, the soldiers may completely collapse, and may even mutiny.

Considering these, Chen Deng became even more determined.

"Xuyi can't hold it anymore! Now I can only rush to Jiangdu to join Cao Hong!" Thinking of this, Chen Deng hurriedly ordered his people to go down to prepare, only prepare food and grass, and flee to Jiangdu lightly.

Of course Chen Deng wanted to take away all the belongings in Xuyi City, but he didn't dare. If he took too many things, marched too slowly, and was caught up by Yuan Jun, it would not be a joke.

As for the burning of Xuyi City with one fire, think about it or forget it. Dong Feifei burned Luoyang and shocked the world. Chen Deng didn't want Chen Yuanlong to burn Xuyi. At that time, everyone would compare him with Dong Zhuo. But there is no future.

Cao Hong was very dissatisfied when he heard that Chen Deng wanted to abandon the city and run away. It was not that Cao Hong wanted to stick to Xuyi, but that he had just arrived in Xuyi, and before he had time to rest, he was going back to Jiangdu. Monkey playing?

In the end, Cao Hong's dissatisfaction was forcefully 'suppressed' by Chen Deng.

These days, Yuan Jun continued to bombard with catapults, and lost more than 5000 horses in the city. Now there are less than 1 troops left. Together with Cao Hong's [-] remnants, there are more than [-] horses in total.

However, many of them were wounded. Chen Deng felt ruthless and abandoned them all. He only brought 1 horses and prepared enough food and grass.

Dian Wei, Chen Ji, Xu Chu, and Mao Jie returned victorious to Yuan's camp outside the city.Not only defeated Cao Hong, but also surrendered [-] Xuzhou troops.

Yuan Shu was overjoyed and set up a banquet to celebrate.

During the banquet, Feng Ji said: "My lord! Cao Hong escaped with only [-] soldiers, and the three soldiers are just a drop in the bucket for Xuyi City. With Chen Deng's experience, he can definitely see that Xuyi City can no longer be defended." Living."

Yuan Shu nodded and said, "Yuan Tu means that Chen Deng wants to abandon the city and go away?"

"My lord is wise!" Feng Ji complimented.

"When does Yuantu think Chen Deng will leave?" Yuan Shu asked.

Feng Ji and Xun You exchanged glances, and then replied: "According to Ji's opinion, the Xuzhou army fought a big battle today, and there were many wounded soldiers. It should be tomorrow at the earliest, otherwise the army will be difficult to move, and our army will definitely be chased." superior."

Xun You nodded slightly, obviously agreeing with Feng Ji's words.

"Okay!" Yuan Shu said loudly: "If Chen Deng wants to leave, he will definitely throw himself into Jiangdu. So we will strengthen the defense of Ximen starting from tomorrow, and we will definitely capture Chen Deng alive."

"No!" The generals responded loudly.

After a drink, everyone is happy, and then they all go back to their tents to rest, recharge their batteries, and wait for the siege tomorrow.

The next day, Yuan Jun marched to Xuyi in a mighty way.

When I came to the bottom of the city, I saw the city gate was wide open. Looking up, the city was sparsely populated, which was very different from the past.

Yuan Shu was puzzled, frowned and looked at the scene in the city, guessing secretly.

Seeing this, Xun You and Feng Ji looked at each other, seeing the helplessness in each other's eyes.

"My lord! It's Ji's fault. Unexpectedly, Chen Deng abandoned the city overnight." Feng Ji pleaded guilty.

"Yuan Tu is saying that Chen Deng has escaped?" Yuan Shu was taken aback.

"Exactly!" Feng Ji nodded helplessly.

Xun You also sighed.

"How is it possible? In the battle yesterday, the Xuzhou army was full of wounded soldiers, and the army was even more exhausted. Abandoning the city overnight, isn't it afraid of our army's pursuit?" Yuan Shu felt a little unbelievable. Such an obvious mistake.

"If you expected it right, Chen Deng should have abandoned all those wounded soldiers." Xun You shook his head and said.

Yuan Shu's face was uncertain, and he sighed for a long time: "Chen Deng is really ruthless!"

Shaking his head, Yuan Shu adjusted his mood and said confidently, "Forget it! I'll let Chen Deng go this time, but he won't be so lucky next time!"

Immediately, Yuan Shu ordered the army to enter the city.

Most of the soldiers and horses in the city were taken away by Chen Deng and Cao Hong, only some old, weak and disabled remained. The people were also afraid of Yuan Jun, and most of them stayed behind closed doors.

The troops were dispatched in April, and now it is mid-June, nearly two months later, Yuan Shu finally took control of Xuyi City.
