Survival Three Kingdoms

Chapter 333
Surprised, the two did not lose their positions. Pei Yuanshao immediately ordered to withdraw his troops. Zhou Cai led 3000 men to meet the soldiers who had retreated from the siege, and then ordered the Thunder Battalion to intercept them.

In the first battle of returning to Xuzhou, Guan Hai couldn't hold back for a long time, he swung his banmen knife and led his men to charge straight there.Xuzhou's retreat was very consciously divided into left and right, giving way to the middle.The mounts of the Thunder Camp were all good horses sent by Yuan Tan, equipped with stirrups and saddles, which took advantage of the Liaodong cavalry.Guan Hai is different from Hua Xiong and Dian Wei. His martial arts skills may be a bit worse, but he is like a lunatic when fighting.

In front of the lunatic, Xu Qian chose to give in. Seeing that the situation was not good, the Liaodong cavalry dropped more than a hundred corpses and fled back to the city. Guan Hai wanted to chase after him into the city, but he saw that the gate was closed and arrows rained down from the top of the city. Pei Yuanshao ordered to call gold again. , Guan Hai had no choice but to retreat back to the main formation slowly.

After Pei Yuanshao counted, nearly 2000 people were lost!Fortunately, the brigade did not enter the city. If they entered the city, they would be trapped in the urn, and the loss would be immeasurable.Fortunately, Zhou Cai responded in a timely manner, so he quickly withdrew his troops and sent Guan Hai, otherwise Pei Yuanshao would not have dared to think about it.

Pei Yuanshao was anxious about what was going on in the city.After a brief discussion with Zhou Cai, Pei Yuanshao ordered the siege to stop, and continued to throw stones into the city with catapults, and waited for Zhou Cang to come before making plans.Originally, Pei Yuanshao wanted to capture Xiangping at all costs before Zhou Cang arrived, but Zhou Cai, who had experienced the defeat of the Changshe, persuaded him that the more responsibility he had at this time, the more prudent he was, and he must not take risks.

Inside the city, Yang Yi was watching the battle from the top of the city. When the cavalry returned to the city, he said to the person beside him: "Thanks to the sir, otherwise the city would not be safe. You and I will be paid a lot when we see the lord!"

Only a few hundred people were lost in the city, more than a hundred riders were lost outside the city, 2000 people were captured in Xuzhou, the traitor was killed, and the spirit of the Xuzhou army was wiped out, which can be regarded as a great victory.What's more, Yang Yi already knew that the general in the city was Dian Wei. Even if he was far away in Liaodong, Yang Yi had heard of Dian Wei's name, just because Han Meng died under Dian Wei's hands, and Han Meng was a vicious man in Liaodong. The Liaodong Army is famously fearful.

The man said: "Why didn't the general lure Xuzhou soldiers and horses into the city as agreed, surround and wipe them out?"

Chen Dao heard it clearly not far away, and hated him in his heart, this person has such a cruel heart, and his mind is so poisonous!

Yang Yi smiled slightly: "Why don't I want to." He pointed to Dian Wei who was kneeling there. "This man is so brave that no one in our army can stop him. I don't know how many people are like this in Zhou Cang's army? If he lures into the city and is defeated by him, then the city is in danger. You saw it just now, the man with the knife Thieves and generals are like fierce spirits, how many people can stop them? The soldiers and horses in my city are not dominant, so prudence is the top priority."

The man gritted his teeth and said: "I can't wait to dismember Zhou Cang's body with a random blade to relieve my hatred!"

Yang Yi laughed again and said: "I'm afraid this will disappoint Mr. Zhou, I have found out that there is no Zhou Cang outside the city, and the general flag with Zhou character is Zhou Cang's clan brother, named Zhou Cai."

"Ah? I've never heard of this person. How could it be Zhou Cai? I've already persuaded Zhou Cang to lead the army himself..."

At this moment, Chen Dao couldn't tell who it was, he was really stupid. From the moment he appeared, Chen Dao suspected that it was Tian Guang. Dian Wei led the men to seize the city gate, but a killer appeared on the way.Then half of the people turned their backs, it must have been done by the Tian family, Chen Dao just wasn't sure whether it was Tian Guang himself or his clan who betrayed Dian Wei, so Tian Guang was definitely the one.I don't know why Tian Guang would do this.

"Sir, I don't know that Zhou Cang came from the south of Liaoning. He was on his way at this time, and he will arrive in a few days. Liu Yi has already sent people to Xuantu and Le Lang to defend Xiangping. Xuantu is his younger brother Liu Zhi." Keep guard, it is expected that he will arrive first. Zhou Cang Laoshi's expedition, after this defeat, has lost his spirit, we just need to stick to it, he will inevitably be in a dilemma, and when he can't hold on and retreat, we will chase and wipe him out."

Although he was resentful in his heart, Chen Dao had to admire Yang Yi's ability to lead the army. His strategy went straight to Zhou Cang's weakness, and more than a year of planning was in vain.It is necessary to report Tian Guang as a traitor and Yang Yi's conspiracy to Zhou Cang as soon as possible.

"Good advice, general. But have you ever noticed that Xuzhou soldiers threw stones before attacking the city? If they kept throwing stones into the city, the soldiers would be injured and morale would drop, which would be bad for the defenders. The most feared thing would be that they would break through the city gate. And how to stick to it?"

Yang Yi's face changed when he heard the words, the accuracy of these stones was not very good, it was almost a blind cast, if they were not even and lucky to break open the city gate, it would be a big trouble. "I don't know what the master plan is?"

"When the army was defeated outside the city, they only knew that they should fail inside, but they didn't know the situation inside the city, let alone Dian Wei's life and death. As for me, hehe, they still thought I was with them." Tian Guang sneered, making people shudder. "I have a plan to make Xiangping the burial place of Xuzhou's entire army."

Speaking of this, Tian Guang looked around, and Yang Yi said: "Sir, please speak. Surrounded by my personal guards who have followed me for many years, they are all my clansmen, but it doesn't matter." After winning the battle, Yang Yi was careless.He didn't notice Chen Dao who was hiding behind Yang Hu, but Chen Dao carefully observed Yang Yi's every move and listened to every word of Yang Yi and Tian Guang.

"I can enter the Xuzhou camp again to lure Pei Yuanshao to attack the city. I set fire and poison in his camp to cause chaos in the camp. The general can lead the army to fight and wipe out the enemies outside the city before Zhou Cang arrives. Zhou Cang's presence in person is also powerless. If Pei Yuanshao does not attack the city, when Zhou Cang arrives, I will find an opportunity to assassinate the thief. If Zhou Cang dies, the army's morale will be disturbed, and the general can lead the army to fight. Now that Zhou Cang has moved north, the general can order the Liaodong Navy to intercept his return by sea, as Cao Cao used this strategy to intercept the Yellow River in order to defeat Yuan Shao."

Tian Guang said hesitantly: "Hey, if we use it on Zhou Cang this time, wouldn't he be dead without a place to bury him!"

"Great! Wonderful! Just according to Mr.'s words." Yang Yi was happy in his heart. It was his business that Tian Guang was willing to take the risk alone. If he succeeded, Tian Guang would undoubtedly die, and the credit was his own.If it fails, Tian Guang will die alone, and he has no loss at all, so why not do it?Elder brother Yang Li has always been tepid in the navy. If he can make great achievements, then the Yang brothers will become great heroes in Liaodong.

"I will prepare the dagger and poison for sir."

"General, please apply poison to the knife."

"Excellent! Mister is as tragic and heroic as Jing Ke was back then. May you accomplish what Jing Ke couldn't do!"

"Hey, I'm not Jing Ke, and Zhou Cang is not Ying Zheng, I want to do what I want to do, and I want to leave."
