Reborn in the Three Kingdoms

Thousands of remnants of Cao's army retreated towards Jiyin.After defeating Li Dian's troops, Lu Bu immediately turned east and headed straight for Yanzhou.At this time, Yanzhou had less than [-] defenders, and they were unaware of the arrival of Lu Bu's troops.

Just when Lu Bu was rushing towards Yanzhou, Chen Chu personally led 2 elite cavalry to fight Cao Jun three times under the city of Yecheng, and Cao Jun had retreated to the village 5 miles south of Yecheng.The siege of Yecheng has been lifted.At this moment, there are less than [-] Beibei troops in Yecheng who can fight again, but Cao Jun also paid a heavy price for this. Nearly [-] people fell on the city wall of Yecheng.

Although it was difficult for the Zhengbei Army to defeat Cao Jun, it was also difficult for Cao Jun to escape. The [-] troops led by Chen Chu were all cavalry. If Cao Jun retreated hastily, he would most likely be chased and killed by the Zhengbei Army on the road, and eventually collapsed.

Surrounded by all the generals, Chen Chu entered Yecheng.Looking around, there are ruins and ruins everywhere, and the streets and alleys are filled with the remains of wounded soldiers and fallen soldiers of the Northern Army. [

"My lord..." Where Chen Chu passed by, wounded soldiers with scars all bowed down to Chen Chu.

Chen Chu quickly jumped off the horse and helped a sergeant in front of him with a wounded left shoulder.The sergeant raised his head, his eyes were exhausted, but he still did not lose his military qualities.

Chen Chu nodded heavily, "Okay!" Then he turned his head to look at the wounded soldiers and said loudly, "You are all good! You are worthy of being soldiers of the Northern Army!" The eyes of the wounded soldiers suddenly showed excitement color.

Chen Chu said to Yang Feng who was beside him: "We must ensure that all the wounded are treated! I don't want to hear the news that some soldiers died because they could not receive timely treatment!"

"My lord, please rest assured!" Yang Feng immediately agreed.

When a group of people came to the government office, Chen Chu sat down on the main seat, the generals lined up on both sides, and Zhou Yu, who was a military adviser, stood beside Chen Chu.

Chen Chu glanced at everyone, and finally fell on Gao Lan and Gao Shun who were covered in blood.He smiled and said, "The two generals really worked hard!"

The second general hurriedly came out and said: "Serve the lord, don't dare to speak hard!"

Chen Chu said with a smile: "In my expedition to the Northern Army, rewards were given for meritorious deeds, and punishments were given for demerits. The two generals held on to Yecheng for half a month, which severely frustrated the Cao army. General of the army, Gao Shun is the general of the central defender!"

The generals of the guard army and the generals of the central defender are one level lower than Lu Bu, Zhang Fei, Zhang Liao, etc., but this is a positive general, which is quite different from the previous deputy generals.

The two generals showed surprise and hurriedly bowed down, "Thank you, my lord!"

Chen Chu chuckled, "Get up."

The two generals stood up and returned respectfully to the ranks, and everyone immediately congratulated them.

Chen Chu smiled, and then asked Zhou Yu, "Gongjin, now that Cao Jun has retreated to the camp thirty miles away, what should our army do next?"

Zhou Yu replied: "It is not appropriate to rush forward at present. We only need to entangle Cao Cao with cavalry and sweep up his food roads. After General Zhang Liao's Tiger Roaring Cavalry and the First Army arrive, we can launch a fatal blow to Cao Cao's army!"

Chen Chu nodded, and then asked, "General Zhang Jaw's 4 troops are in Liyang at the moment, do you want him to do something?"

Zhou Yu said with emotion: "General Zhang Jaw is worthy of being a wise and brave general. Returning to Liyang in time not only found a support for the defense, but also laid a big nail in the rear of Cao Jun! Now, General Zhang Jaw is only required to wait for orders in Li Yang immediately. Make him do anything!"

"Baima is currently besieged by tens of thousands of Cao's troops, the situation is not optimistic!"

Zhou Yu chuckled and said, "My lord, you don't have to worry about the white horse! Regardless of whether Cao's army can capture the white horse in a short period of time, under the current circumstances, Cao Cao will not spend his troops to attack the white horse, which is of little use to the overall situation of the battle." !” [

After thinking for a while, Chen Chu figured out the joints.

Chen Chu stopped for a while in Yecheng, and then led [-] cavalry to approach Cao Jun's camp and Xiazhai.At the same time, wounded soldiers and prisoners in Yecheng were continuously transported to Weijun.

Cao Cao was very annoyed and lost his temper in the handsome tent.

"Yecheng is about to be taken, but Chen Chu would lead an army here! Isn't Chen Chu in a hurry? How could he gather so quickly?

The army goes south?Xun Yu! "

Xun Yu immediately replied: "There is indeed a problem with the grain and grass of the North Army. Some time ago, Chen Chu had already arrived at Huguan but did not continue south, which shows this."

"Then what's going on in this situation now?" Cao Cao asked angrily.

Xun Yu shook his head slowly, with a puzzled look on his face.At this moment, Cao Jun didn't know that the Zhengbei Army had already raided Yuan Shao's Wei County.

At this time, Guo Jia said: "After breaking the siege of Yecheng, Chen Chu personally led the cavalry to approach our army's camp. This is obviously trying to hold back our army!"

Cao Cao frowned.Guo Jia continued: "There are two possibilities for Chen Chu to do this. One is that Chen Chu's main force is coming from Bingzhou, and Chen Chu intends to hold back our army, and then gather and annihilate them; the other possibility is that Chen Chu It's a bluff, but it's unlikely!"

Everyone started talking immediately.Cao Cao frowned tightly, with his hands behind his back, showing a thoughtful expression.

He raised his head suddenly and asked, "As far as the current situation is concerned, does Feng Xiao have any countermeasures?"

Guo Jia pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said: "There are still many doubts about the situation of the Northern Conscript Army, and the few conscript troops in Yanzhou are like tarsal caries, I don't know how to deal with it for the time being!"

Cao Cao became silent, and after a while he said: "Could it be that we gave up the whole Yanzhou in exchange for Yuan Shao's strike, but we ended up doing nothing?!"

Everyone couldn't help but feel ashamed.Xu Chu suddenly came out and bowed with fists folded, "My lord, the last general is willing to be the vanguard and defeat the Northern Zheng army in front of him. I invite Chen Chu!" Then all the generals came out to fight.

Cao Cao couldn't help but feel deeply moved.

In the end, Cao Cao did not order to fight as the generals wished.Although Cao Cao also really wanted to crush the cavalry of the Beibei Army in front of him, it was impossible for Cao Cao's [-] troops to fight against Chen Chu's [-] elite cavalry in the wilderness.

Cao Cao ordered the generals of all ministries not to go out of the camp to fight without authorization.The generals couldn't help being very discouraged.

That night, a spy brought the latest news about the Northern Army.Only now did Cao Cao understand where Chen Chu got the food and grass.

"Unexpectedly, Chen Chu unexpectedly attacked Yuan Shao's Wei County!" Cao Cao seemed quite surprised.Guo Jia also said with emotion: "This trick of surprise soldiers is really wonderful!"

"Feng Xiao, how much food and grass does Wei County have?" Cao Cao asked.This question is critical.

Guo Jia thought for a while and replied: "Wei County is an important transshipment hub from Jizhou to Luoyang. The wheat harvest season has just passed, and Wei County may have hundreds of thousands of tons of grain!" [

"What?! How many?!" Cao Cao was so shocked that his voice changed.Guo Jia nodded.

"However, even if there are hundreds of thousands of dans of food, if the Northern Conscript Army comes with a large army, it won't last long?" Le Jin was the one who spoke.

Guo Jia explained: "These grains are only for transitional use. I think Chen Chu must have ordered the three states under his jurisdiction to step up preparations for grain. It won't take long for the grain and grass raised from the three states to be transported to the Yanzhou battlefield in a steady stream. "

Then he turned to Cao Cao and said, "Master, our army must retreat as soon as possible! Otherwise..." Guo Jia didn't finish his sentence, but Cao Cao understood what he meant.

Cao Cao was silent for a long time, and finally asked unwillingly: "Are we really going to give up Yanzhou?"

Guo Jia sighed, "There is no other way!"

"Why retreat?! I don't believe we can't defeat the Northern Army!", Xu Chu was the one who spoke angrily.

"If you fight to the end now, even if you finally repel the North Army, you will only benefit Yuan Shao, who is on the sidelines! Our army retreats to Qingzhou, with Qingzhou as the base, the whole army waits for the opportunity, and we will surely make a comeback!"

Everyone is silent.All watched Cao Cao, waiting for Cao Cao's decision.

Cao Cao frowned, pursed his lips, clenched his fists, and his expression was inexplicable.Everyone didn't dare to vent their anger, and felt inexplicably nervous.Only Guo Jia seemed calm and composed, and he seemed to have a plan in mind.Needle drop can be heard in the big tent.

After a long and short while, Cao Cao suddenly raised his head, glanced at everyone in the hall, and said in a low voice: "Our army left Yanzhou today, and we will make a comeback in the future!".Cao Cao has made his decision

Heart.

The counselors didn't say anything, but the generals showed a look of astonishment. "My lord, please think again! Even if I, Xu Chu, risk my life, I will defeat Chen Chu!".Xu Chu knelt on the ground with a mighty aura.

Cao Cao hurriedly came to Xu Chu, helped Xu Chu up, and said with emotion: "The general is loyal and brave, I am very relieved! However, I have made up my mind, so you don't need to say any more!"

Xu Chu showed pain on his face, and finally clasped his fists with difficulty to agree.Cao Cao patted Xu Chu's fist hard.

Returning to the main position, Cao Cao immediately ordered, "Order Xiahou Dun to closely monitor Liyang's Northern Expedition Army, and there must be no slack in the slightest!".Xiahou Dun is currently leading an army of [-] troops stationed ten miles north of Liyang. He was going to lead an army to seize Liyang, but Zhang He took the lead, so he had to station at the main throat north of Liyang to block Zhang He's troops. The passage to the north to ensure the smooth progress of the battle of Yecheng.

"Order Cao Ren to immediately abandon the siege of Baima and turn to Puyang to meet the army."

"Order Cheng Yu to stand firm in Yanzhou and wait for orders. Order Li Dian to join Cheng Yu and stand firm in Yanzhou." At this moment, Cao Cao did not know that Li Dian had been defeated and died.

"Order Xun You to abandon Jiyin, Dingtao, and Liang Commanderies and retreat to Yanzhou."

Cao Cao obviously still didn't want to give up Yanzhou City.

Then he turned his head to Guo Jia and said, "The current problem is how to get rid of the Northern Conscript Army in front of us and retreat to Puyang."

Guo Jia smiled lightly and said, "It's not that difficult!"

Cao Cao couldn't help being overjoyed, and quickly asked, "What should I do?"

Guo Jia whispered in Cao Cao's ear for a moment.Cao Cao's face suddenly became a little dignified.

Guo Jia knew why Cao Cao was hesitating, and persuaded him, "My lord, don't stop, you will definitely suffer from chaos!"

Cao Cao's heart shuddered, his face showed a determined look, and he nodded slowly. ! ~!
