"How's it going? Have the Han troops arrived?" Chi You looked straight ahead and his calm voice suddenly sounded.
"Don't worry, second brother, the scouts have already come to report that the Han army is only a few miles away from here. This time, these Han soldiers will definitely fall into a big fight." Zhang Dingbian said with a slight smile.
replied.
…
"Brother Dong, Brother Sun, as long as we pass through this valley again, we will see a smooth plain. By then, our army's marching speed will be greatly increased, and it will not be difficult to catch up with the Yellow Turbans." Seeing the hope of successfully catching up with the Yellow Turbans again,
Cao Cao finally showed a smile.
"Send the order and quickly investigate this place." This was the last dangerous place before catching up with the Yellow Turbans. Cao Cao still cautiously sent out a group of troops to investigate first.
"Hahaha, brother Meng De really has the demeanor of a general." Dong Zhuo and Sun Jian'er were obviously in a good mood at this time, so they complimented each other on Cao Cao.
It didn't take long. After some investigation by the soldiers, the valley had been roughly explored. However, no trace of an ambush was found.
"Hahaha, Brother Mengde, it seems that you are worrying too much this time. This yellow scarf has been hidden twice in a row. What's more, I'm afraid they may still think that we are still blocked in front of the fire." Seeing people in the valley.
There was no ambush, Dong Zhuo said with a hint of joking.
"Hahaha, it's not just right, it saves us the trouble. Let's go, let's go." Cao Cao also replied with a smile.
This valley is not that big, and it only took less than half an hour for Cao, Sun, and Dong's army to pass through.
After successfully passing through the valley, Cao, Sun, and Dong were all overjoyed. This valley was already the last dangerous place, and the road ahead was flat. Then they only had to lead their troops and drive away quickly. Finally, they no longer had to face the danger.
I was as careful as before.
"kill……"
Cao, Sun, and Dong had just breathed a sigh of relief, but then, deafening shouts of death and war drums sounded from the left and right at the same time.
Cao, Sun, and Dong hurriedly looked around, and saw countless armies on the left and right coming toward them in the darkness. Looking at it like this, it was conservatively estimated that there would be as many as hundreds of thousands of troops.
When the situation has developed to this point, it is obvious that Chi You's plan has been revealed.
There were two ambushes before. The first time was just to buy time for Chi You to lead his troops to this place and set up an ambush.
The second time, it was just to force Cao Cao and the others to take the path arranged by Chi You. Of course, it would have been easier if Cao Cao and the others had really fallen directly to the second wave of ambush.
However, it is obvious that neither Chi You, nor Zhang Dingbian nor Li Yan directly put their hope in the second wave of ambush. This third wave of ambush is the trump card that the Yellow Turbans really prepared for the Han army.
At the same time, the two ambushes before and after also served some other purposes. After the two ambushes, the Han army would be nervous when passing through some dangerous areas suitable for ambush, thus increasing the exploration of these dangerous areas.
Of course, the nervous Han army did intensify their exploration of these dangerous areas. Just like this time, they first cautiously explored the valley before the Han army dared to pass through cautiously.
Unfortunately, after carefully exploring the valley, the Han army ignored the situation outside the valley. Just like Li Xiang ambushed Chi You last time, Chi You did not ambush in an easy place this time, but in a difficult place.
An ambush was laid on the ground.
Therefore, even with Cao Cao's shrewdness, he directly suffered a big loss this time.
This time, Chi You went to great lengths to set up an ambush. In fact, the main force of the Yellow Turbans that Cao Cao and the others had detected before did indeed exist, but there were not as many as they had detected.
Chi You directly divided the remaining nearly 400,000 troops into two halves. One half continued to move forward normally to attract the attention of the Han army, while the other half lurked here.
Although the morale of the Yellow Turban Army plummeted and their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced at this time, because they were the ambush side and their numerical advantage, they could easily overwhelm the Han Army.
In order to end the battle as soon as possible before the reinforcements of the Han army arrived, Chi You directly dispatched all the generals he could send. Chi You himself, Zhang Dingbian, Zhang Liang, Li Jin, Yue Xi, Feng Tai, Yuan Lang, Liu Yuan, Pan Zhong,
Mi Sheng, Liao Hua, Li Guo, etc., these yellow turban generals, each led an army, and rushed down towards the Han army like tigers descending from the mountain.
Especially the strongest ones, Chi You, Zhang Dingbian, Li Jin, and Yue Xi, went directly towards the central position where Cao, Sun, and Dong were, and killed them.
"Quick, the soldiers with swords and shields are in front, and the soldiers with spears are behind, form a defensive formation." Suddenly encountered an ambush, Cao Cao forced himself to calm down and worked hard to direct the army to counterattack.
"Ding, Cao Cao's loyal traitor skill is activated.
Loyal and traitor, a capable minister in times of trouble, a traitor in troubled times, Cao Cao's unique skills,
Note, this skill changes depending on whether Cao Cao is loyal or traitorous. Currently, Cao Cao's stance is loyal.
Effect 1: When commanding troops, making plans or governing politics, increase one's corresponding fourth dimension by 2 points.
The second effect is to greatly increase the combat power, morale and speed of one's own army.
Effect 3: After becoming the king, all five dimensions will be 1, and the skill Wei Wu will be awakened.
Note: Effect 3 can only be awakened after the loyalty and traitor skills have changed.
Once the effect of Cao Cao's loyal traitor skill is activated, the commander will be 2, the basic commander will be 92, and the current commander will be raised to 94."
"Ding, the second effect of Cao Cao's loyal traitor skill is activated. The combat power, morale and speed of the entire army will be greatly increased."
The situation was so urgent that Cao Cao had no time to think about it. He had to stabilize the army first and block the Yellow Turbans' offensive, and then find another way to break through.
"Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Xia Houdun, Xia Houyuan... you guys quickly step forward to block the enemy generals' charge." Cao Cao's eyes were solemn, looking at the Yellow Turban generals who were charging wantonly in the chaos, and he immediately ordered.
Cao Cao understood that these Yellow Turban generals were like sharp arrows, about to rush into the Han army's formation unstoppably. If they could not stop these Yellow Turban generals, they would definitely lose this battle.
As for the two generals Yan Liang and Wen Chou, Cao Cao borrowed them from Yuan Shao before the battle. There were figures like Chi You and Xiang Yu among the enemy troops, so Cao Cao naturally had to bring more powerful generals.
In fact, Cao Cao's first idea was Xing Tian or Jiang Song. Unfortunately, Li Xiang did not agree to Cao Cao's request, so Cao Cao retreated and asked Yuan Shao to borrow Yan Liang and Wen Chou.
However, fortunately, he knew that when the Yellow Turbans were about to retreat, Xiang Yu felt that it was useless to stay in the Yellow Turbans, so he left the Yellow Turbans after writing a letter.
Therefore, Cao Cao only needs to face Chi You alone today. Otherwise, Cao Cao and other generals will really be in vain today.
