Shouchun.
Su Ran led the 5,000 Bei Wei Army and waited quietly three miles outside the city for less than an hour. They saw the enemy cavalry charging out with a loud bang. The general in the lead was burly and looked somewhat heroic.
"Who is the thief? I'm happy to be under my knife and won't kill nameless people.”
Su Ran was still far away when she heard the thief general's shout. She was instantly amused.
This line sounded familiar.
However, in order to play along, he did not announce his name. Instead, he went to fight Le Jiu alone.
Le Jiu, who was standing in the distance, was overjoyed. He pressed his legs against the horse's belly and rushed out."Good! Watch me kill you!"
The saber in his hand slashed down fiercely.
Su Ran blocked it effortlessly with her spear.
Originally, he could have taken advantage of the situation to stab Le Jiu to death, but he pretended to be no match for him. After exchanging more than ten moves with Le Jiu, he could not hold on any longer and retreated.
"You can't even withstand a single blow. Are you worthy of coming here to challenge me and fight with me?”
Le Jiu looked at Su Ran's fleeing figure and laughed loudly.
He stood proudly in front of the formation.
He had some of Guan Yu's glory.
"General is invincible!"
The personal guards behind him immediately echoed loudly.
The voice spread far away, and the twenty thousand elite cavalry followed suit.
The Yuan army on the city wall immediately chased away the enemy generals as soon as they saw the music. Their morale was greatly boosted as they sounded the war drums beside them.
The drumbeats sounded, and everyone was excited. They wanted to kill the rebel army in order to make contributions.
Le Jiu was also greatly encouraged. A sense of pride rose in his chest as he shouted angrily,"Follow me to kill the enemy, annihilate the enemy, and raise the prestige of my army!”
After saying that.
He grabbed his broadsword and charged forward.
The 20,000 elite cavalrymen behind him saw their commander take the lead and immediately charged forward.
"Thief general, don't run!"
"Leave your life behind!"
Le shouted as he chased after her.
Su Ran looked back calmly and waved his hand, causing the 5,000 soldiers to retreat.
After running for seven to eight miles, Su Ran saw that he was getting further and further away from Shouchun. He only stopped when he reached the ambush of Cao Chun's Tiger Leopard Cavalry.
"Run!"
"Why aren't you running anymore?"
Le Jiu chased after them. When he saw that the five thousand Cao soldiers had stopped, he immediately sneered and shouted.
"Idiot."
Su Ran cursed, and Le immediately flew into a rage.
"You're about to die. How dare you do this?”
"Give me your life."
Le Jiu raised the saber in his hand and charged at Su Ran.
It was aggressive.
Seeing that the saber was about to cut off Su Ran's head, he said with a happy expression,"Kill the enemy before the battle! I'm happy to be famous today!"
However…
Before the saber in his hand could slash down, he felt a blur in front of his eyes, and then a sharp pain came from his chest.
A strong sense of powerlessness followed.
Le Jiu looked at Su Ran blankly and slowly lowered his head.
He did not know when, but Su Ran's spear had already pierced through his chest, leaving a hole.
"Why…"
"It will be like this…"
Le Jiu murmured, his eyes rolled back and he fell off his horse.
He didn't know if he was unlucky or something else.
Le Jiu's corpse had just fallen to the ground when it was trampled by a frightened warhorse. It was really miserable.
"Not good, the general is dead."
With the death of their commander, Yuan Zhou's cavalry fell into chaos.
Cao Chun, who was lying in ambush in the distance, saw that the time had come. He immediately led thirty thousand tiger leopard cavalry to charge out from both sides and pincer attack from both sides.
Su Ran was not idle either.
He led the 5,000 Bei Wei Army and charged in.
This battle.
The killing lasted for two hours.
The 20,000 cavalrymen of Yuan Dynasty were almost completely wiped out, with more than 10,000 of them dead. Two to three thousand of them surrendered, and the rest who were still alive could only flee back to the city.
"Zihe, later you will box up Le Jiu's head and send it to Shouchun City. Say that it is a gift from the lord to Yuan Shu.”
"There is another sentence. Order someone to write it and shoot it into the city.”
When Cao Chun was cleaning up the battlefield and gathering the surrendered soldiers, Su Ran rode over and gave an order.
Cao Chun nodded thoughtfully and said,"Advisor Jun wants to use this to intimidate the officials of Shouchun?”
"Yes."
"Yuan Shu is afraid of death, but the aristocratic families and officials under him are even more afraid of death.”
"Now that Yuan Shu has lost seventy to eighty thousand soldiers, the people in the city are already in a state of panic. If we send back Le Jiu's head now, in less than ten days, the aristocratic families and officials in the city will secretly send a letter of surrender to the lord.”
Su Ran said lightly.
"A brilliant plan, counselor." Cao Chun was overjoyed.
Su Ran nodded and whispered a few words into Cao Chun's ear. Then, he led the Bei Wei Army back to the camp.
"Come and take a look. Our great hero has returned.”
Cao Cao had already brought Guo Jia and Dian Wei to wait at the camp gate. When he saw Su Ran, he immediately smiled and teased her.
"How dare I trouble my lord to wait outside the camp?”
Su Ran immediately dismounted and ordered the Bei Wei Army to return to the camp.
"Yi An, in this battle, you wiped out twenty thousand elite cavalry of the Yuan army and cut off one of Yuan Shu's arms. With such great merit, why can't the lord wait for you?”Guo Jia said with a smile.
"Not bad."
Cao Cao walked forward with a gratified expression and grabbed Su Ran's arm.""Yi 'an has the talent to command. If I had Yi' an, it would be like if King Wen had Jiang Shang, or if Gaozu had Han Xin.”
"Now that the emperor is in the capital, the Great Han Empire is about to fall. With Yi An's help, I can help the Han family and support the emperor.”
"From the perspective of the world, not to mention waiting for a moment, even if I wait for a day, a month, or even a year, what's the harm!”
Su Ran was touched.
Cao Cao thought too highly of him.
This was something he had never felt in the past few years.
Whether it was the aristocratic families or the other dukes, they all looked down on him because he was of the Humble Class.
Only Cao Cao, regardless of his background, did not care about Sima Wei and Xu Shao's evaluation and treated him sincerely!
"My lord is so kind, I will definitely repay you wholeheartedly!”
Su Ran bowed deeply.
This bow was a respect for Cao Cao's talent and sincerity.
"There's no need for such a bow."
Cao Cao helped Su Ran up and smiled." Come, follow me into the camp."”
"I've already prepared the celebratory wine. I'm just waiting for you to come back.”
"War needs to be fought, wine needs to be drunk. As for women…" Guo Jia was also drunk.
Cao Cao laughed." Hehehe…No rush, no rush. We'll talk about it when we get back to Xuchang!"”
As he spoke, he glanced at Su Ran, thinking of some bad idea.
Su Ran smiled helplessly when she saw the two of them making eyes at each other.
Unofficial historical records.
Cao Cao and Guo Jia both liked beautiful women, so they often followed them in and out of the restaurant.
They were two people who could wield swords together. It was no wonder that Cao Cao treated Guo Jia as a close friend.
