Survival Three Kingdoms

Chapter 597
On the sixth day of the first lunar month, news came that Cao Pi had withdrawn from Hebei. Lu Chang felt great hatred in his heart. This situation would never have happened if it hadn't been for Yu Jin's refusal to send troops. Cheng He negotiated.

"It's an illusion that Xu Huang stationed troops in Pi. Zhou Cang will come in person, and he must go to Beihai. Cheng He and I will go to Shouguang to defend, and Lu Chang can set up defenses in Yidu."

The discussion has been decided, and the two divisions will take 3 people to Shouguang in the ban, and Lu Chang will lead 30 people to guard Yidu.Yu Jin has [-] Qingzhou soldiers selected from the [-] Yellow Turban Army, all of whom are fierce and invincible; The unruly and brave men have been honed by Yu Jin for these years, and the military discipline is strict and well-trained.

Deng Ai arrived at Zaoqiang on the seventh day to join Sun Li, and on the eighth day he went east to the plains. Unfortunately, Sun Li's Xuanjia cavalry did not come in handy. Dong Chao emptied the treasury, leaving Deng Ai an empty city. Leaving the old, young, sick and disabled waiting to be fed, Deng Ai had no choice but to distribute part of the military rations to reassure the people.

On the ninth day of the lunar new year, Lu Xun led the troops to arrive.Deng Ai continued eastward to Leling, and met the same treatment as Pingyuan. He gathered all his strength and had nowhere to punch, and smoked Deng Ai's seven orifices, so he had to retreat to Pingyuan.

"Yu Wenze is a good one." Lu Xun said with a chuckle. "It's a pity that he only has the courage of a strong man to cut his wrists, but he doesn't have the courage to risk his life. If he had sent troops from the plains early, he wouldn't have abandoned the two counties."

"General Boyan, the war in Hebei is over, I don't know how to use the troops next?"

"According to the discussion with Governor Xu, one is to stabilize Jizhou, and the other is to defend against Cao Cao's counterattack." Lu Xun unfolded the map. "It's a pity that there is no communication with the lord. There has been no reply since the last time I wrote to the lord."

Deng Ai said with a wry smile, "Xuzhou and I communicate entirely by sea. In the middle of winter, the coast is frozen, and it is a blessing to send the letter. The teacher will never take the risk of sending someone to deliver the letter from the land. I am afraid that it will be the messenger of Xu Dudu to deliver the letter to the teacher." We can only wait on the shore."

What Deng Ai said is correct, Xu Shu's follow-up letters to Zhou Cang were all blocked on the shore, which is called pros and cons.Xu Shu asked Zhou Chong to go south, maybe he wanted to see if there was a way to deliver the letter through Jinyiwei.

Lu Xun pointed to the map and said: "I am most worried that the lord will send troops to Qingzhou. The Yellow River freezes is a good time for me to cross the river. If the two sides attack, Qingzhou can be won. If we wait another month, before the ice melts, Cao Cao will go to the Qingzhou. have returned..."

Deng Ai thought for a while: "Based on my understanding of the teacher, it is very possible to send troops to Qingzhou."

Confused, such a big matter cannot be based on guesswork. If you guess wrong, you will lose your troops. It is a pity that the Cao army on the south bank is very well-prepared and cannot send out scouts.

The two were tangled, Ding Feng couldn't help, and Sun Li made it clear: "General Lu, why did Yu Jin abandon Pingyuan and Leling?"

Lu Xun slapped the table: "If it wasn't for Deda's reminder, I would almost have made a mistake."

"The authorities are fans." Deng Ai blushed. "It must be that the teacher wants to take Qingzhou, but Yu Jin knows that the two counties are no longer defendable, so he shrinks his troops and refuses me to be equal to the north bank!"

Lu Xun was completely convinced by Xu Shu, and recruited two young generals, both civil and military.Xu Yuanzhi not only used his soldiers like a magic pen, but also had a unique eye for choosing people.

Ding Feng was puzzled: "Why is this not necessarily Yu Jin's trick to lure the enemy?"

Deng Ai laughed and said: "Using the two armies to lure the enemy, Yu Jin is not so bold. The river is frozen and our army has a retreat. What's the use of luring me?"

"Immediately send someone to send a letter to Yuanzhi, telling him that I have taken two counties, and I am going to take Jiyang from the Shang River across the Yellow River, and ask him to transport food and grass for me." There are quite a few, what is lacking is food and grass, and there is no shortage of food in Yedu.

"General Lu, when I was in Liaodong, I saw that people in Liaodong often used sleds and skateboards to walk on ice and snow in winter, and the speed was extremely fast. It is said that this was developed by Ge Jun. I also learned a thing or two. Make a skateboard, practice using it and prepare it for crossing the river."

"I've heard of it too, but Ge Jun said it was the Lord's instruction." Lu Xun couldn't help feeling that Zhou Cang was really knowledgeable. "I will prepare more white clothes and white robes to cover up."

Deng Ai and Ding Feng hurried to make skateboards overnight, and selected 3000 elites for training.However, on the [-]th, the messenger reported back that Xu Shu agreed with Lu Xun's judgment on the situation and supported sending troops. He sent Wenqin with [-] people to escort food and grass to help the battle. He also said that Wenqin could stay in the army and serve him. Lu Xun please don't worry about adjusting Ma Tie to lead a battalion to the south.

24 On this day it was snowing heavily. Ding Feng led three thousand elite soldiers holding shields in their left hand and short knives in their right hands. They wore white clothes with a knife tied behind the white clothes and white robes. They set out from the north bank on skateboards under the cover of night and heavy snow. Deng Ai led ten thousand people to follow up.

Dong Chao and Dong Heng retreated to the south bank, and the old army and the original garrison gathered about 2 people to set up camp, and sent people to patrol every day without slack.

"General Yu is too careful." Dong Chao pointed at Huang He. "From now on, I can see everything at a glance, even if there are enemy troops, how can they escape my eyes and ears."

Dong Heng said with a smile: "I left two empty cities, and Lu Xun has no food. How can we march without raising food and grass? Hahaha. But you have to be careful, don't frown on General Yu." Yu Jin's army was strict, and he found out It's not a joke that I was slightly negligent, and it's not that beheadings have never happened.

It snowed heavily on the 24th, and the two of them went back to the camp for a drink after a round of inspections to get rid of the cold.The main general was not there, and the soldiers began to relax. It was impossible to walk in such a heavy snow, and it was impossible for the other side to choose such a broken sky to attack.

On a snowy night, the visibility was not high, and the patrolling soldiers hid to avoid the snow, leaving only a few soldiers in charge of looking out standing there as usual.

With the help of skateboards, Ding Feng moved extremely fast, like a team of ghosts crossing the Yellow River in less than one shift. The soldiers removed the skateboards and took off their robes. Brothers, go!" He rushed to Cao Ying first.

In the wind and snow, Cao Jun, who was on the lookout, vaguely heard the cry of killing, and hurriedly asked people to check, but was chopped down one by one by Ding Feng's leader, and rushed into Cao camp before the gate of the camp was closed. Only then did Cao Jun realize that he was attacked , Watchmen desperately sounded the alarm.

When the alarm bell rang, Cao Jun climbed out of the camp one after another, and saw a group of men in white slashing and killing wantonly in the camp like wolves and tigers. Dong Chao and Dong Heng were shocked, how could Lu Xun cross the river so quickly, and hurriedly mobilized soldiers to resist.

The sound of killing in Cao Ying was loud, and Ding Feng used white clothes as a mark, killing anyone who was not in white. Snowflakes and blood were mixed together, and three thousand white-clothed men quickly turned into blood-clothed men.Cao Jun has never encountered such a situation, hand-to-hand combat with short soldiers, and the archers are useless. The Xuzhou army with swords and shields has an advantage in weapons. Pull out the machete and continue hacking.
