"Zi Yuan, we're not far from Cao Cao's army.”
"Looking at the Cao army's slow appearance, it seems like they don't intend to pursue the Jing state soldiers.”
Pan Feng and Xu You were in charge of the situation at the back, analyzing the information sent by the scouts.
"My lord, Cao Cao's army might have other motives, or they might be afraid that the Jingzhou soldiers might have some tricks up their sleeves. As the saying goes, don't pursue a desperate enemy, so it's normal for Cao Cao's army to have concerns.”
Pan Feng spread her hands.
"Then what should we do?"
"The Cao army wouldn't be prepared to surrender, right?”
Pan Feng stared at Xu You." You came up with the idea, you solve it."
Xu You chuckled." Don't worry, my lord. The Cao army will eat meat that is delivered to their doorstep."”
Pan Feng was also a little uncertain now. After all, Cao Ah Man was famous for being suspicious.
……
The twenty thousand soldiers of Jizhou in disguise rested for a moment before entering Cao Cao's line of sight.
The rest of the Jizhou Army surrounded the Cao Army from both sides.
Although the Cao army was puzzled as to why these Jing state soldiers had run for so long and only managed to cover so little distance.
However, when he heard the scouts report that the Jing state soldiers had fled with the wounded and had turned back after reaching a dead end, he understood.
Cao Cao sat in the middle of the army, frowning as he pondered for a moment.
"Who is the general of the Jing state? Why was he so useless? He can't even escape?"
"Reporting to my lord, the general of Jing State is Zhang Hu.”The scout lowered his head, his tone full of disdain.
"This person was originally a bandit, but later surrendered to Liu Biao.”
Cao Cao's brows relaxed.
"I see. Perhaps this person wants to pick up his old business.”
"Otherwise, why would they leave the river plain and specially drill through the mountain?”
"It seems that Fengxiao's plan cannot be implemented. Zhang Hu doesn't want to return to Hanshou and wants to bring the defeated soldiers to the grass. He won't be able to take advantage of the Jingzhou defeated soldiers to attack the city.”
"Since that's the case, eat this Jing state army!”
Cao Cao ordered the army to attack at full speed and pursue the Jingzhou soldiers.
Pan Feng heaved a sigh of relief when she received the news that Cao Cao's army was speeding up their pursuit.
However, Xu You didn't show any change in expression, as if this was already within his expectations.
The disguised Jing state soldiers quickly discovered the rapidly approaching Cao army, and in their panic, they were disorganized.
Everyone ran in all directions without any intention of fighting.
Even though the commander, Zhang Hu, tried his best to restrain them, most of the soldiers still ran away.
Soon, the Jing state soldiers who were fleeing like headless flies were surrounded by the Cao army.
The Jing state soldiers who had just run away ran back to their original positions. Under the moonlight, they were all extremely frightened.
Cao Cao General Li Dian loudly urged them to surrender.
"Jing state soldiers, listen up. We won't kill those who surrender. If you resist, this will be your burial ground!”
After Li Dian finished speaking, he didn't care whether the Jing State soldiers surrendered or not and charged over.
At the same time, he shouted again,"If you don't want to die, drop your weapons and lie down!"”
No one expected that Li Dian's words would cause the Jing State soldiers, who were running around like headless flies, to throw away their weapons and lie on the ground.
Pan Feng closed her eyes and couldn't bear to look at him.
How embarrassing! No one could know about what happened today.
It was too f * cking embarrassing.
Li Dian, who was charging over, was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out of his head and he almost fell off his horse.
"D * mn, what kind of operation is this? Are the Jingzhou soldiers so weak?"
However, when he thought about how the other party's commander was originally a mountain bandit, he felt relieved and even more disdainful.
"This Zhang Hu has to be killed, and we can't recruit bandits in the future.”
Cao Cao shook his head and made up his mind.
Cao Cao's army captured the Jingzhou soldiers effortlessly.
"What about Zhang Hu?"
Cao Cao heaved a sigh of relief and asked with doubt.
"Zhang Hu is dead."
"Dead? What happened?"
"When I was crawling on the ground, I was lying on a large knife and my stomach was cut open.”
……
"Have you verified his identity?"
"It's confirmed to be Zhang Hu."
Cao Cao nodded. He had some doubts in his heart, but since everything was normal, he didn't think too much about it.
The army rested on the spot.
Pan Feng and Xu You heaved a sigh of relief when they received the news that Cao Cao had successfully subdued them.
At this point, Xu You's plan was already half successful.
"Zi Yuan, if we win this battle, you will be the one to take the credit.”
Xu You waved his hand and said he didn't dare.
"If it wasn't for my lord's order to bring Zhang Hu's corpse, I'm afraid we would have been exposed long ago.”
The armored guard at the side did not look away.
It was not the first time that the military counselor and the lord had flattered each other, so they were already used to it.
The sky gradually brightened, and the moonlight disappeared into the darkness before dawn.
Suddenly, the Cao army camp was engulfed in flames!
"Not good, the Jing state soldiers have burned the rations!”
"Quick, report to the lord!"
···
Cao Cao hurriedly put on his armor and ran out of the tent to take a look.
The entire camp was in chaos. At some point, the Jing State soldiers had formed a battle formation and were fighting in the camp.
The heavily guarded provisions had turned into a huge torch, illuminating the entire camp!
Cao Cao glared at him. How could he not know that he had been tricked?
He immediately burst into laughter!
"Order the entire army to gather in the main tent!”
The panicked Cao Cao army gradually calmed down and quickly gathered in the main tent.
A moment later, Guo Jia, Guo Fengxiao, Li Dian, Yu Jin, and Yue Jin surrounded Cao Cao.
"What happened? How did the Jingzhou soldiers break free?”
Cao Cao asked.
"My lord, perhaps we have been fooled.”
Guo Jia sighed.
"You mean feigning surrender?"
"Who in Jingzhou has the guts to do so?" Cao Cao asked. Is there such a strategy?"
Everyone shook their heads.
"Li Dian, lead the army and kill all of these Jingzhou soldiers!”
Cao Cao was furious. He had wanted to capture and strengthen his army.
However, they were not obedient and even burned their rations. They were sentenced to death!
Cao Cao's heart was bleeding. For a long journey, the supply of rations was the most important. Now that the rations had been burned, it could be said that half of his attack on Jingzhou had failed!
Although Cao Cao was furious, he did not panic.
With 100,000 soldiers, it would be quite troublesome for a mere 20,000 soldiers to riot in the barracks.
If he wanted to kill Cao Cao's army, hmph, it was just a fool's dream.
The Cao army quickly gathered and attacked.
At this moment, the sound of ten thousand horses galloping could be heard from all directions.
"Kill the Cao thief and help the country!"
Their chants echoed in the sky.
Cao Cao was shocked. There were reinforcements?
Trash! What were scouts for? The enemy had already rushed into the house and still hadn't discovered it!
The camp was surrounded by people and horses. At the same time, a figure that looked like a reincarnated god of death was charging over.
The chants sounded like thunder in winter.
"Not good, these are the soldiers of Jizhou!"
The soldiers on the outer perimeter finally saw the appearance of the incoming enemy. They shouted in fear and ran towards the center of the army.
However, before these soldiers could even take two steps, they were pinned to the ground by an arrow, and blood splattered everywhere.
At the same time, a rain of arrows descended from the sky!
It was airtight.
Of course, the enemy foolishly gathered together. What was the point of keeping them if they didn't use the rain of arrows to cover them?
