On Yuan Shao's side,
"Oh? How could Zhang Jiao and the Yellow Turban Army be so weak? Was he going to lose his temper after being tormented by Lu Yu and Cao Cao? In that case, could this battle decide the outcome?”
Yuan Shao did not really sit in the back and enjoy the cool. He had many spies from the aristocratic families helping him investigate every move on the battlefield.
He had long since grasped the movements of Zhang Jiao's army, Lu Yu, and Cao Cao.
When he found that Zhang Jiao and the Yellow Turban Army were not as powerful as he had imagined, and were on the verge of collapse, his mind became active.
After meeting up with Lu Yu, Cao Cao and the rest, Yuan Shao took on the responsibility of letting them rest at the defense line further back.
Not long after Lu Yu and the others left,
Yuan Shao led his 40,000-strong army out and chose to fight Zhang Jiao head-on.
"Kill! Kill him! Kill Zhang Jiao! Reward a thousand gold and a thousand mu of fertile land!"
Yuan Shao shouted loudly, causing the army to launch an attack on Zhang Jiao's army.
The Yellow Turban Army on the other side was indeed caught off guard at the beginning.
Morale was also a problem, but it really allowed Yuan Shao's army to gain the upper hand.
Zhang Jiao was only commanding the army to respond in an orderly manner while paying attention to the rear of Yuan Shao's army.
When he realized that there was no ambush, Zhang Jiao was stunned for a moment before he was overjoyed."This Yuan Shao's reputation shook the heavens. I didn't expect him to be an idiot? He actually didn't follow the previous routine? The heavens are helping me!"
"Generals, listen up! Destroy this army! Victory is right in front of us!"
Zhang Jiao immediately ordered a counterattack.
The Yellow Turban generals, who had been tortured to the point of suffocation over the past few days, immediately had their eyes turn red. They led their troops to attack Yuan Shao's army in an attempt to surround them and swallow them whole.
At this moment, Lu Yu, Cao Cao, and the others were standing on a hill five kilometers away. They had a panoramic view of the battlefield.
Lu Yu glanced at the battle situation on the enlarged mini-map and looked further back. A trace of confusion flashed in his eyes.
Then, he turned to Cao Cao and said,"Brother Meng De!" Looks like you lost the bet! Yuan Shao did as I guessed! Obviously, he wanted to take all the credit for killing the leader of the bandits and wiping out the main force of Zhang Jiao's army!”
It turned out that on the way here, Lu Yu had already expressed his worries and speculations.
He said that Yuan Shao might do something.
Cao Cao did not believe it at first.
The two of them even made a bet.
The result was obvious.
Lu Yu won.
When Cao Cao heard this, his face darkened slightly,"I didn't expect Yuan Benchu to do this!" For the sake of credit, he really did everything he could!”
He was not only taking Lu Yu's credit, but also Cao Mengde's.
Cao Cao continued,"However, the situation on his side is not good. Brother Ziyi, we should quickly send troops to rescue him!"”
"Although the timing isn't the best, the Yellow Turban army has indeed been tormented to the limit by us. If we charge now, with our 30,000-strong army, we will definitely be able to defeat the main force of the Yellow Turban army and capture and kill Zhang Jiao!”
Time waits for no one!
Yuan Shao wasn't really stupid. He also saw an opportunity.
However, he had overestimated himself and underestimated the faith and endurance of Zhang Jiao, the Yellow Turban generals, and the Yellow Turban strongmen.
"Yes! That's exactly what I'm thinking!"
Lu Yu nodded and waved his hand. He led the 6,000-strong cavalry to the battlefield a few kilometers away.
They directly left Cao Cao's army behind.
"F * ck!"
Seeing this, Cao Cao's face turned green and he quickly ordered the army to speed up and rush towards the battlefield.
He had forgotten that his side was almost full of infantrymen, while Lu Yu's subordinates were all cavalry.
If the speed was slow, he probably wouldn't even be able to drink the soup, right?
If possible, he wanted to kill Zhang Jiao himself and take the credit!
"Damn it! Didn't they say that the Yellow Turban Army was about to collapse? Why was he still so powerful?”
At this time, Yuan Shao was leading the army into a bitter battle. He felt extremely aggrieved in his heart.
He had thought that he would be able to reap the rewards easily, but that was not the case at all.
"General! We're about to be surrounded by the enemy! It was better to break out of the encirclement quickly! There are too many enemies!"
Yuan Shao's deputy general's face was currently covered in blood. He ran to Yuan Shao's side in a very sorry state and persuaded him.
Actually, he didn't really agree with Yuan Shao underestimating the enemy and advancing rashly before.
No matter what, Zhang Jiao's army still had 200,000 soldiers, while they only had 40,000 soldiers. With a difference of six to seven times, any accident could happen.
"Damn it! Good! Then let's break out first! We'll fight again later!"
Yuan Shao's face was flushed red. He gritted his teeth and finally made his decision.
"Kill!"
However, at this moment, a series of earth-shattering sounds came from behind.
It was obviously the movement of a large cavalry army.
Yuan Shao and the vice general immediately turned around to look.
"General! It was Marshal Lu! Shuai Lu had come to increase the number of members! That was great! Perhaps we don't need to retreat!"
The deputy general said excitedly.
With the addition of seven thousand cavalry, he believed that they would be able to turn the tide of the battle.
Moreover, Lu Yu was obviously with Cao Cao.
Lu Yu had already appeared, so how far could Cao Cao and his 30,000-strong army be?
"F * ck! Those who are snatching credit are here!"
Yuan Shao's face darkened as he cursed in his heart. He then hurriedly shouted at the deputy general,""Then what are we waiting for? Kill them! Ding! Zhang Jiao, don't let him escape! We can ignore the others, but Zhang Jiao must die in our hands!”
He was not in a hurry to retreat now, but he also knew that he had to hurry.
"This Lu Ziyi is really sinister! Didn't they suddenly appear when they agreed to evacuate? I think he already had a plan in mind, right?”
Yuan Shao thought angrily as he led his army to attack Zhang Jiao's central army.
