Three Kingdoms Bandits

Chapter 563 See Through
Qu'a left Hulao Pass and ran straight towards the direction the army was chasing.He took half of the guard battalion.

After Cao Jun was defeated and retreated, generals Wei Yan, Ma Chao, and Zhao Yun of the Wuling Army reacted the fastest, because they led the cavalry and chased them in the most timely manner.

The cavalry officers and soldiers bit Cao Jun's tail tightly and followed him to kill him.

I don't know why, this time Cao Jun didn't send a trilogy to break the rear, but let the soldiers run so chaotically.

After chasing for ten miles, Wei Yan, Ma Chao, and Zhao Yun gathered together.

"Two generals, Cao Jun is in such a mess, I'm afraid there is fraud!"

Zhao Yun said.

"Yes, Cao Jun's reaction today is completely different from the past, we have to be careful."

Wei Yan felt that what Zhao Yun said was very reasonable.He was cheated by Cao Jun because of his greed for meritorious deeds.

Once bitten, twice shy!
Wei Yan was also scared.

"Are you no longer chasing?"

Ma Chao asked.

Now Cao Jun is running all over the mountains and plains, it doesn't look like there is an ambush.Ma Chao didn't want to lose the opportunity to make contributions.Yizhou is getting stronger and stronger, and their Xiliang army needs to have enough credit if they want to gain a foothold in Yizhou.

"Slow down the pursuit speed and see Cao Jun's reaction."

Zhao Yun said.

As General Qilin, Zhao Yun is very cautious.Cao Cao is not a mediocre master, and he is not so easy to deal with.

"Just according to Zilong's words!"

"Okay, let's do it!"

Because Wei Yan was afraid of being ambushed, he directly chose to act on Zhao Yun's suggestion.Although Ma Chao wanted to make meritorious service, the Qinglong cavalry and Qilin cavalry were the direct descendants of Yizhou.

Both Wei Yan and Zhao Yun said so, so he had no choice but to follow.

With the order, the pursuit speed of the Wuling cavalry slowly slowed down.Cao Jun's soldiers found that their two legs could run faster than four-legged war horses.

The lord has an order to attract the Wuling army to pursue, but why are they running so slowly?Isn't there a war horse?
How to do?
Run slowly, let the Wuling army have hope of pursuing.

Cao Jun soldiers can only think so.

"There is indeed a problem!"

Wei Yan felt a little lucky.Fortunately, he listened to Zhao Yun's suggestion, otherwise he would be ambushed again.

"There must be an ambush ahead, how should we deal with it?"

Ma Chao asked.

From his point of view, no matter what ambush he is, just rush over and break through!In the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies and tricks are just clouds.

"Suspend the pursuit and rest in place!"

Zhao Yun said.

"it is good!"

Resting in place, Wei Yan and Ma Chao also agreed.Going forward, you can't tell when you will be stalked.

Go ahead to dangers.This is the belief of the brave.Leading troops to fight, you can't show your enthusiasm for a while.

If the entire Wuling army is here, they can directly break Cao Jun's formation.It's just that only the cavalry has chased here.

Because the horses were fast, there was already a long distance between them and the White Tiger Army.

One mile away from the place where the cavalry of the Wuling Army rested, Cao Jun set up a pocket formation.As long as the cavalry drilled in, it would be difficult to get out.

"What? It was discovered!"

The news from the scouts made Cao Cao furious.

"My lord, the Wuling army didn't notice it. It's just that their cavalry and infantry kept a distance, and they stopped in place as if they were waiting."

Seeing that Cao Cao was angry, the scout said hastily.

"Explore and report again!"

It was good that he hadn't been discovered, and Cao Cao was in a slightly better mood.He used his soldiers to lure the Wuling army to pursue him, and he paid a lot.If it is discovered, the previous efforts will be in vain.

When Qu A found Zhao Yun and the others, the three were discussing whether to continue the pursuit or return to the Hulao Pass.

"Three generals, the lord has an order, don't chase too far!"

Qu A told Wu Shun what he meant.

"That is to say, the lord has an order, then go back to the army."

Zhao Yun said.

"Alright."

Wei Yan and Ma Chao had no objections.

In this way, the pursuit of the Wuling cavalry ended.They withdrew their troops and returned to Hulao Pass.

Cao Cao was very mad when he got the news. Seeing that he was about to succeed, he retreated!The arrangement was in vain like this.

"My lord, the Wuling army has experienced being ambushed, so there is nothing wrong with being cautious."

Xun You persuaded.

"I don't know who is leading the Wuling army!"

"The cavalry generals of the Wuling Army are nothing more than Wei Yan, Ma Chao and other generals. By the way, there are cavalry in the Qilin Army of the Wuling Army, which are under the command of Zhao Yun."

When Xun You mentioned Zhao Yun, Cao Cao had an impression.

"Zhao Yun, brave and resourceful, handsome and talented!"

Cao Cao sighed.

He didn't understand how, with Wu Shun's identity, he could gather so many capable men.

If the ambush failed, Cao Cao could only withdraw his troops and return to the camp, and choose another day to fight against the Wuling army!
Zhao Yun and others returned to Hulao Pass and told Wu Shun what happened when Cao Jun retreated. Wu Shun called it a fluke.

Fortunately, the three of Zhao Yun were cautious and did not continue to catch up.Otherwise, it is easy to be ambushed by Cao Jun.

"Everyone, Cao Cao was defeated and retreated today, and the ambush ended in failure. He will definitely find another way to break through Hulao Pass. Therefore, everyone must pay more attention when fighting Cao's army. Don't be fooled by Cao Cao."

Wu Shun confessed.

"The last general will wait and remember!"

The generals bowed their hands.

After this battle, Hulao Pass was quiet for a few days.Cao Jun lost two battles in a row, and his morale was inevitably low.Cao Cao can't attack every day either.

But on the fifth night, a young man Cao Jun began to harass Hulao Pass!One of them had a larger number of people, and once killed Hulao Pass.Fortunately, Zhao Yun was in charge of the patrol that night and wiped out Cao Jun in time.

The news of Cao Jun's night attack came from the Wuling Army.Wu Shun was worried that his morale would be affected, but he didn't expect that the soldiers of the Wuling Army didn't take the night attack seriously at all.

Many soldiers have also applied to be transferred to patrol at night.Because there is a chance to fight Cao Jun.

Military merits are earned by killing the enemy, whether you can get a job as an official, whether you can honor your ancestors, all depends on your performance on the battlefield.

In order to understand Cao Jun's purpose, Wu Shun summoned the three major military divisions to discuss together.

"What is the purpose of Cao Cao's night attack?"

Wu Shun asked.This is what he knows best so far.

After all, if the enemy attacked at night, if one didn't pay attention, he wouldn't know when Hulaoguan would be captured.

"My lord, in Liang's opinion, this is Cao Cao's plan to exhaust the army!"

“How come you see?”

Wu Shun said.

"Cao Jun attacked twice, but was repelled by our Wuling Army officers and soldiers. If we don't tire our army, Cao Cao has no chance."

Zhuge Liang explained.

"That's the reason, but it doesn't rule out the possibility of Cao Jun sending out a large army to attack at night."

Xu Shu continued.

The previous night raids can be regarded as Cao Cao's temptation.Once the number of night raids increased and the Wuling army's defenses weakened, then it was time for Cao Cao to really attack.

"What Yuan Zhi said makes sense. How should our army deal with these two tactics?"

Wu Shun asked.

If it is a strategy to exhaust the soldiers, then it is easy to handle. As long as it is not as good as the opportunity, Cao Jun will not dare to attack easily if the number of patrols is increased.

Therefore, Wu Shun Cao Jun's tactics are not very effective.He was more inclined towards what Xu Shu added, Cao Jun was testing.
