The Invincible Summoning of the Three Kingdoms

Xi Zhicai was stunned for a moment, but he subconsciously thought of what Liu Rui once said, those who are filial piety can conquer the world. Xi Zhicai and Guo Jia were classmates and friends, and they were both masters, but their situation was huge. Are not the same.

Then Liu Rui's account is not only Huo Qubing, but also Guo Jiamei, Su Zhuge Liang, Zhao Yun, Li Ruohai, Xiang Yu, Li Cunxiao, Li Jing, Xue Rengui, grandson Wu Yuefei and others.Such a strong lineup, coupled with the incomparable strength under Liu Rui's rule, for a time, Xi Zhicai's heart was full of bitterness.

With Cao Cao's current strength, against Liu Rui, I am afraid there is absolutely no chance of winning!

878: Steady Progress

Xi Zhicai's sigh in his heart, Cao Cao is naturally unknown.

It's just that the two of them chatted for a long time, and they couldn't do anything about the current situation.Even though Cao Cao summoned all his strategists and generals, he could not find a way to fight against Liu Rui.

For example, Cheng Yu, Chen Qun, Liu Ye and others were domineering and domineering after their strategy was adopted by Cao Cao, but after this fiasco, they were as listless as eggplants beaten by frost.

"Cheng Yu, just now I told Zhicai about this war... This fiasco is certainly due to your ineffective command, but more than that, it's not because of you!" Cao Cao looked at Cheng who was beside him. Yu, just opened his mouth and smiled reluctantly.

In Cao Cao's heart, he hated Cheng Yu very much, but at this moment, the morale of Cao Cao's army was low. No matter what, this Cheng Yu was someone who had just offered a plan for Cao Cao. If Cao Cao killed him at this moment With this Cheng Yu, it is inevitable that many advisors and generals will feel a sense of sympathy. At that time, many people may betray him Cao Cao.

Even if no one betrayed him, no one would dare to continue to advise Cao Cao when Cao Cao needed everyone to discuss it again.

It is for this reason that Cao Cao and Xi Zhicai discussed for a while, and finally decided to put the punishment of Cheng Yu aside for the time being.After the war with Liu Rui is over in the future, I will make calculations.

It's just that Cao Cao's words heard Cheng Yu's ears, but Cheng Yu gave birth to other ideas.

After Xi Zhicai led his troops to ambush and helped Cao Jun get out of trouble, Cheng Yu was in a panic, for fear that Cao Cao would take anger against him.But now that he heard that Cao Cao didn't care, Cheng Yu was greatly moved.He couldn't help but knelt down in front of Cao Cao, kowtowed like garlic and said, "My lord is so kind and virtuous. The lord is thinking of a good way to get rid of thieves!"

Hearing Cheng Yu's words, Cao Cao waved his hand and didn't say more.It's just that in Cheng Yu's heart, he secretly made up his mind at this moment, and wants to work harder in the future to plan more strategies for Cao Cao.

Seeing Cheng Yu's performance, Xi Zhicai sneered in his heart. Speaking of which, his heart of Xi Zhicai completely convinced Cao Cao.

On the contrary, it was Cheng Yu. Although this person is not narrow-minded, he is not broad-minded. At least until now, Cheng Yu still has an inexplicable hostility towards Xi Zhi.

It's just that now Xi Zhicai has regained Cao Cao's appreciation, even if Cheng Yu is unwilling, he knows that this is not a good time to provoke Xi Zhicai.

After Cao Cao comforted Cheng Yu, he handed over the power of his subordinates back to Xi Zhicai, and the first thing Xi Zhicai did after taking over was to start counting casualties.

Xi Zhicai is doing statistics here, and Liu Rui is doing the same thing.Lazy people listen to the book www.lanren9.com

At this moment, Huo Qubing was standing in front of Liu Rui excitedly, and said with a smile, "My lord, this time we have a big victory!"

Liu Rui nodded, and then he said with a smile: "General Huo, please read out the results of this battle, and let everyone listen!"

"During this battle, our army wiped out a total of more than [-] captured Cao's troops, of which [-] were peasants whom Xi Zhicai forcibly recruited. These people have now been properly arranged by the light cavalry. After Wan Duan, more than half of the troops were killed or wounded, and the rest surrendered, but many of these people were old and weak in Cao's army, and even if they surrendered, they would not be able to become combat power!" Huo Qubing sees him With the battle report in his hand, he said with a smile.

"Also, when Cao's army retreated, [-] cavalry lost the net, and [-] troops were surrounded by us. In addition to the previous losses, in this battle, Cao's army lost a total of about [-] men and horses. The [-] militiamen who have been recruited, all add up to a total of [-]!" Huo Qubing laughed twice, looked at Liu Rui again, and said, "My lord, when I chased Cao Jun, the other party hid. Don't dare to fight in the city, now is the best time for us to attack!"

Liu Rui nodded, and then he said with a smile: "In this battle, General Huo was the first, and the light cavalry under your command also played the most crucial role in this battle, pass on the order and reward The three armies, let the soldiers have a good meal, let's go to find the bad luck of Cao Cao!"

All the generals were overjoyed, and they all thought that this battle could be won, but they did not expect that the results of this battle would be so fruitful.

Guo Jia on the side couldn't help but said: "If it wasn't for General Huo's command, I'm afraid that even if we can win this battle, there will be a lot of losses at that time, but now our losses are compared with Cao Jun's, it is not enough. Worth mentioning!"

"Yeah, in this battle, all the [-] troops of Cao's army can be mobilized only by the movement of the light cavalry army. If not, I am afraid that the lord and I will not have the opportunity to get through the opponent's army!" Zhao Yun on the side couldn't bear it. Zhu Zun opened his mouth to praise, and after a pause, Zhao Yun turned to Huo Qubing and said, "General Huo, when I was at war, Zhao Yun questioned your order many times. Here, I want to apologize to General Huo!"

Huo Qubing waved his hands and said, "What did General Zilong say, I know that everyone was questioning my decision at the time, but no one disobeyed the military order, otherwise, this battle would not have ended so easily! "

Speaking of which, Huo Qubing looked at everyone present, and after a round of hands, he said, "Generals, we all serve the lord, without your hard work, I, Huo Qubing, would not have been able to survive this battle. Destroy Cao Cao's great formation!"

Everyone nodded silently. Although Huo Qubing was the main general under Liu Rui, he often led Qingqi to fight, but compared with many generals, Qingqi could not be alone.

However, after this battle, no one dared to underestimate the light cavalry anymore. After all, in this battle, the role played by the light cavalry was irreplaceable.

Seeing the generals getting along with each other in harmony, Liu Rui laughed and said: "Okay, don't fight anymore, in short, this time thanks to General Huo's efforts, if it wasn't for you, I don't know if you have to wait to understand. Only the year of the monkey and the month of the horse can break Cao Cao's great formation!"

Speaking of which, Liu Rui looked at the people present and said, "Generals, now that Cao Jun has fled back, let's take a rest today, and wait until tomorrow, then lead the army to continue the pursuit!"

Everyone nodded silently. After taking the task for the second day, the entire army moved forward steadily after the rest!

879: Cao Cao panicked

The movements of Liu Rui's army were quickly passed on to Cao Cao.

It's just that Cao Cao now has no way at all.

At this moment, the city where Cao Cao is stationed is called Yan County, which is still some distance away from Dongjun, the capital of Gunzhou.But this place is close to Chenliu County.

This time Liu Rui's army was approaching, and Cao Cao had to slowly withdraw to Chenliu County.

And Liu Rui didn't go after him, but slowly approached the opponent. Wherever he passed, the cities under Cao Cao's command had no resistance at all.

Often, Cao Cao retreated in front of him, leaving behind some soldiers and horses, but when Liu Rui's army arrived, these soldiers and horses couldn't even resist, and Liu Rui quickly broke through them with lightning speed.

Today's Cao Cao is holding the battle report coming from the front and looking at all the advisors and generals in front of him.

"Everyone, if we can't think of a way to come, I'm afraid we will be forced by Liu Rui to have nowhere to escape!" Seeing that everyone was silent, Cao Cao couldn't help but feel a little helpless.

"Master!" Cheng Yu saw that everyone had nothing to do, so he quickly stood up and bowed deeply to Cao Cao before he said: "Master, don't be impatient, Liu Rui's army is now domineering, our army But we have just suffered a setback, both sides are at a disadvantage in terms of military strength and morale, if we start a war rashly now, I am afraid the result will not be optimistic!"

Seeing Cheng Yu, Cao Cao couldn't help clenching his fists. At that time, he chose not to punish Cheng Yu's mistakes, because he was thinking of the overall situation. Now that Cheng Yu jumped out again, Cao Cao's heart suddenly jumped. It was a bit of disgust, but now Cao Cao could only calmly ask: "If we continue to hide, what kind of war will we have with Liu Rui? If we knew today, why did we have to do it in the first place?"

Cao Cao's words made Cheng Yu speechless. At the beginning, Xi Zhicai tried his best to retreat, but he Cheng Yu jumped out and tried his best to provoke Cao Cao to fight, but Liu Rui beat him with heavy casualties and lost more than half.

Thinking of this, Cheng Yu bit his head and said, "My lord, now is not the time to be emotional, our army is now..."

Before Cheng Yu's words were finished, Xi Zhicai, who was on the side, stood up and bowed his hands to Cao Cao, and then he said, "My lord, this subordinate is guilty, and I ask your lord to punish him!"

This time Xi Zhicai interrupted Cheng Yu unceremoniously, but Cheng Yu was extremely dissatisfied, but Cao Cao and others all looked at Xi Zhicai, Cao Cao couldn't help but asked: "Zhi Cai , what are you guilty of?"

"After the last time the lord went to battle, the subordinates were restless in the rear, and they couldn't think of a good idea to help the lord, so the subordinates went to ask Jia Xu for advice. When you lose, you can get out!" Xi Zhicai bowed his hands, and then opened his mouth.
