Survival Three Kingdoms

Chapter 598
3000 people killed [-] Cao Jun and turned them on their backs, thinking that the opponent had tens of thousands of people.In the snowy night, Dong Chao and Dong Heng were unable to reorganize the army, and they dared not retreat due to the power of the ban. Cao Ying was like a huge meat grinder, but the blade was in Ding Feng's hands. superior.

These 3000 people are old people from Xuzhou, and they were trained by Wei Xu. Wei Xu trained them completely according to Gao Shun's method. Although they were far from the camp, they had indeed undergone formal training.

Another fight passed, and nearly half of Ding Feng's men had lost, and the rest gradually lost their strength. Deng Ai's brigade arrived in time to encircle Cao Ying. Seeing that there was nowhere to go, Dong Chao and Dong Heng had to surrender. The camp was captured.

Seeing that all of Ding Feng's men were wounded, Ding Feng was wounded in more than ten places, luckily none of them were seriously injured, Deng Ai hurriedly took off his robe and put it on Ding Feng: "General Ding is also a god!"

Order the medical officer to heal the wounded soldiers. Every soldier in Xuzhou has a small first-aid kit in his arms, which contains Baiyao, and the soldiers apply the medicine to each other.Xu Shu once talked with Zhang Jai and others, saying that Zhou Cang's actions reduced the battle damage by at least [-]%, otherwise, how many soldiers died because of injuries and sores that were not rescued in time, and those who survived the war can be called old soldiers , Every veteran is a valuable asset in the army.

At dawn, Lu Xun and Sun Li crossed the river, and everyone praised Ding Feng, counting a great merit, and according to the authority, he could be awarded a first-class iron medal.Deng Ai offered prisoners, Dong Chao and Dong Heng paid homage to the ground and asked to surrender.

Lu Xun questioned carefully, and the two explained the reason why they withdrew from Pingyuan and Leling, and explained Yu Jin's deployment of troops. "General, the main force of Yujin is about 4 people on the front line of Shouguang and Yidu. The [-] guarding on the south bank have been wiped out, leaving only [-] people in Chen Zuo, the governor of Jinan."

Lu Xun and Deng Ai looked at each other and said they were lucky. They almost missed the battle of Qingzhou. Yu Jin's [-] soldiers were enough for Zhou Cang. And the way of governing the army, and said that Yu Jin is a rare military training genius after Ju Yi and Gao Shun, and he is ashamed of himself.There are only three or five people in Cao Ying who can be praised by Zhang Jaw, Cao Ren, Zhang Liao, and Yu Jin, while Le Jin, Li Tong, and Wen Pin can only be counted as half each, which can be seen in Yu Jin's ability.

Wen Qin's grain and grass were still on the way, and Lu Xun sent someone to urge him again.Dong Chao and Dong Heng exchanged glances, cupped their hands and said, "General, to show our sincerity, the two of us are willing to offer Jinan."

"Tell me, how to get Jinan?"

"The two of us can lead the remnants to retreat to Jinan, and Chen Zuo will not be suspicious. We can take Chen Zuo down and open the city to welcome the general into the city."

"The plan is a good plan, how can you make me believe it?"

Dong Chao said anxiously: "Although we are not brothers, we are like brothers and sisters. I am willing to stay as a hostage!"

The two of them knew very well that if they lost ground, they would never forgive Yu Jin according to his temper. Instead of facing Jin, it would be better to surrender completely, so as to win Lu Xun's favor and gain fame and fortune.

"Since that's the case, I will trust you. If this plan works, I will recommend you in front of Marquis Liao. If you have a different intention, I will go to heaven and escape to earth, and I will not bypass you."

Immediately, Dong Heng led five thousand remnants and was defeated to Jinan.Chen Zuo is very knowledgeable, has a good reputation as a scholar, and is good at politics, but he is far behind his brother Chen Qun in military affairs.Seeing that Dong Heng was defeated, he hurriedly asked why. Dong Heng said that Lu Xun crossed the river in white clothes in the heavy snow at night. tears.

Chen Zuo comforted Dong Heng, handed over the power of guarding the city to Dong Heng, and urgently sent someone to report to Yu Jin.That night, Dong Heng's soldiers besieged the governor's mansion, Chen Zuo regretted it, scolded Dong Heng for being ungrateful, and committed suicide by hanging himself after Cheng Yu. At dawn, Dong Heng opened the city to welcome Lu Xun into Jinan County.The soldiers in the city didn't understand what was going on, so they became prisoners in a daze.

Lu Xun ordered a two-day rest. Among the captives, those who were willing to surrender were sent to the camps, and those who did not want to surrender were put under centralized supervision.The people in Jinan learned that Xuzhou soldiers had arrived, and there was no commotion. The life of the people in Xuzhou was the happy life they had longed for.

On the 29th, Wen Qin arrived to transport food. Lu Xunliu Ding Feng and Wen Qin led 2 people to defend the city. Enter Linzi, Qi County.

Zhou Cang was really uncomfortable in Shouguang. Yu Jin couldn't hold on, and his defenses were not leaking. Qu A and Xu Gai organized several strong attacks but failed, and turned back 3000 people.Wu Gang launched a night attack, and Yu Jin's defenses were tighter at night. Soldiers threw torches from behind the barrier, exposing the Xuzhou army to the fire, and were shot and killed.

Blocked by strong walls and moats, Huang Zhong wanted to charge the Lightning Battalion several times, but Zhou Cang insisted on refusing to do so, worried that the losses would be too heavy.Wu Gang wanted to dig a tunnel again, but the weather was freezing, and the progress of digging was slow for three days. Seeing that the ground was completely frozen, he had to give up.Qu'a suggested building a catapult, and built a lookout post on a high place in Yujin. When they saw a catapult throwing stones, they would beat the gong. Qingzhou soldiers hid in the hollow behind the barrier. When Xuzhou soldiers went out to fight, they beat the war drum again. .

Zhou Cang sighed: "Qingzhou soldiers are not afraid of suffering, and they are not afraid of death. They are as stubborn as a rock, and they are hard to shake."

The two armies confronted each other for more than 20 days, regardless of the timing and location, Zhou Cang had nothing to do for a while, and had a faint heart to retreat.Wu Gang once again offered a plan, imitating Tian Dan's strategy of breaking Yan in the Huoxen formation, which was rejected by Zhou Cang. It would be bad to counterattack our own camp.

On the thirtieth day of the first lunar month, just as Zhou Cang was thinking hard about how to defeat the enemy, Wu Gang came to report that Cao's army had changed.Zhou Cang led the crowd to climb up and have a look.

"My lord, I have observed Cao Ying here for three consecutive days, and today I found that the cooking smoke in Cao Ying is much less than the previous few days." Wu Gang pointed to Cao Ying and said. "Looking at it from this point of view, Cao Jun's camp has not decreased, but the smoke from the cooking is obviously sparse."

Standing on the top of the hill, Cao Ying is not clear from a distance, only the camps and flags are densely packed, and the lack of cooking smoke means that there is less cooking.

Xu Gai asked, "Could it be that this is a trick to lure the enemy?"

Wu Gang shook his head: "Why does Yu Jin need to lure the enemy? It snowed heavily in the past few days, and the water in the army must be burned to melt the snow. The lack of cooking smoke only shows that Yu Jin must have divided his troops. I guess something happened in Qingzhou, or he went to rescue Jizhou , but once again set up suspicious soldiers to block the advance."

Zhou Cang is also more and more optimistic about Wu Gang. The general must not only be decisive and have ingenuity, but also be patient, careful, and bear his temper.On such a cold day, Wu Gang was able to continuously observe the enemy's situation here and discover subtle changes.
