Back to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

Chapter 295
Feng Yao galloped up to catch up, the jade sword in his hand pierced fiercely, like a piece of leather, there was only a tiny sound of "Pu Chi", and the jade sword came out from Niu Jin's chest.

"How is this possible?" Niu Jin's eyes widened, he looked at the tip of the sword protruding from his chest in surprise, his body softened, and he fell down.

"Niu Jin! It's a pity, although you are also a famous general, but there is no place for you in my camp! No matter whether you are really like the legend, it's better to be careful!!" Feng Yao looked at Niu Jin's fallen body The corpse said silently in his heart.

After pulling out the jade sword, with a light flick, all the blood on the sword fell off!

The followers behind him all showed surprise when they saw it, and they were even more in awe of Feng Yao.

On the east bank of the Zishui River, Chang Diao saw that Cao Ren was defeated and the situation was imminent. He no longer cared about attacking Xu Chu. Rush down from the mountain, killing Chang Diao's rear.

Chang Diao was in a hurry, and shouted from a distance: "General Cao, move closer to the last general!!"

Cao Ren, under the protection of several Qingzhou soldiers, retreated back and forth. Although there were Qingzhou soldiers who came forward and cut off, but at this time, after Xiong Wei killed the other Qingzhou soldiers, they besieged them one after another. The Qingzhou soldiers who broke the enemy were killed.

Dai Ling strode like flying, one step equal to more than one and a half steps of ordinary soldiers, and soon caught up with Cao Ren, shouting: "Cao Ren! Where are you going!"

Cao Ren didn't have much strength at this time, and after fighting with Dai Ling for a few rounds, Dai Ling hit his armor with a stick, his body was shaken violently, and then he sprayed a mouthful of blood, sat down on the ground, staring at him. All thoughts are lost.

"Meng De! I've tried my best!" Cao Ren knew that he was doomed. Before he died, he turned his head and looked in the direction of Cao Cao's garrison in Linzi.

Dai Ling's mace was held in the air, a bit pity for his talents, but when he thought of the lord's instructions, his eyes shot out murderously, and before Cao Ren could turn his head, he swung the stick at Cao Ren's head.

A generation of famous generals, one of Cao Cao's most powerful generals, Cao Ren Cao Zixiao, died immediately!
Cao Ren was also wearing Mingguang armor and a Mingguang helmet on his head, but under Dai Ling's 120-jin steel mace, the Mingguang helmet also shattered into several pieces...

Feng Yao rode a horse and led his cavalry over slowly, just in time to see the scene of Cao Ren being killed by Dai Ling, he couldn't bear it, and ordered: "Cao Ren is indeed a loyal general, Even if such a general is an enemy, he still deserves my respect, come and carry his body back to the city, and give him a proper burial!"

Seeing this scene, Chang Diao in the distance was shocked. He didn't expect that Cao Ren, who was as brave as Cao Ren, would be so vulnerable under Dai Ling's hands!
"Let's retreat quickly!!" Chang Diao roared, no longer caring whether the rear army could keep up, and led dozens of cronies to flee quickly.

At this time, the more than a thousand defeated troops under him no longer had a leader, and they all scattered and fled!
Feng Yao led the cavalry to catch up and shouted: "The one who surrenders will not die!!!"

The Qingzhou soldiers had to throw down their weapons and surrender. Feng Yao led Yang Wu and others to recruit the fleeing Qingzhou soldiers separately. A total of more than [-] surrendered soldiers were recruited!
Zishui has long since returned to calm, but the rebels trampled on both sides of the river to be extremely muddy. Blood flowed in the weeds, small stones, and fragments of corpses, dragging the already muddy river bank into a terrifying scene!There are many unbroken enemies still moaning and struggling on the ground.

"Give those seriously injured enemy soldiers a good time, and those who are slightly injured and can be cured can be recruited and brought back for treatment!" Feng Yao ordered.

The war was all over, and the strong men who shouted on the mountain showed a fanatical look and cheered loudly: "Victory! We have won!!"

After half an hour.

The strong men basically collected the useful supplies on the battlefield, and the Xiong Wei and the county soldiers also dragged back their fallen companions.

"Qingzhou soldiers are really a tough enemy!! Unexpectedly, we have such an advantage in terrain, superior numbers, coupled with tactics, 56 Xiongwei and Huwei still died in battle, more than [-] were seriously injured, and more than [-] were slightly injured name!" Looking at the corpses of the Xiongwei and Huwei who died in battle, Feng Yao was not excited by these victories.

Those severely injured Xiongwei and Huwei, even if they are cured, their bodies will be much worse than before. The best ending for them is to return to Runan, return to the rear, and engage in other duties!

It is difficult to fill the nearly [-] vacancies!

However, to Feng Yao's relief, in this battle, more than [-] elite soldiers were killed, which is of great significance. This is Cao Cao's most elite soldier at present!Even though Cao Cao has hundreds of thousands of Qingzhou soldiers, most of them are miscellaneous soldiers, and even women are counted among them.

Even if all Qingzhou soldiers who can really go to the battlefield are recruited and trained, there are only 20 at most.

During the battle with Lu Bu this year, tens of thousands of soldiers have been lost, so even if Cao Cao is forced to conscript now, he can only reach [-] soldiers at most, and only one-third of the elite soldiers are at most one-third, that is, elite soldiers. There are about [-] soldiers in Qingzhou!

These [-] elite Qingzhou soldiers were commanded by three generals, Xiahou Dun, Xiahouyuan, and Cao Ren.

In this battle, due to Cao Ren's death, it can be said that Cao Ren's strength has disappeared. Cao Ren had five generals, and now only Lu Chang has [-] soldiers. Chang Diao led dozens of people to flee, and Chun Yu died in the fire. In the middle, Niu Jin was beheaded!

After collecting all available arrows, armor, and weapons, Feng Yao ordered the entire army to retreat to Laiwu City.

"My lord, what about the corpses of those enemies?" Yang Wu asked.

Feng Yao glanced at the corpses of the enemy soldiers strewn all over the mountain, and then at those Qingzhou soldiers who surrendered, but their hands were still tied, their eyes showed pleading expressions.

"Qingzhou soldiers are indeed an opponent worthy of our respect! Untie their ropes, let them dig a hole for their brothers who died in battle, and bury them all under this mountain." Feng Yao said.

If it wasn't for the sake of these Qingzhou soldiers who surrendered, Feng Yao planned to throw these corpses here. I believe that in two or three days, Cao Cao will lead the army through this place. It caused a big blow to the morale of Qingzhou soldiers!
And out of helplessness, Cao Cao had to order the army to stop and bury it!After two or three days, these corpses will decompose disgustingly and emit a smoky stench! !Maybe it will make Cao Cao's army not want to eat for a day! !
Another reason is that although these corpses can bring a blow to Cao Cao, they will also bring plagues to this area and the lower reaches of the Zishui River. After all, this will be the territory of his ally Zang Ba in the future!Indirectly, it can be regarded as his own territory. Feng Yao doesn't want to see the plague happening and causing disasters to the people.

After Qingzhou soldiers heard Feng Yao's order, they all knelt down, thanked Feng Yao for his kindness, and their hatred towards Feng Yao also slightly improved.

After untying the rope, they each took their tools and carried piles of corpses along the hillside with tears in their eyes.

Some Qingzhou soldiers have already started digging big pits at the original trap locations, while the other part spread out, transporting corpses back and forth across the entire battlefield!
