Chapter 363 Lure the enemy deep, the yellow scarf takes the bait
There are tens of thousands of Yellow Turbans outside the circle, and Guan Hai has no intention of giving up.
"Brother, now that we are splitting the formation, aren't we afraid that the army will chase us in?"
Guan Cheng disagreed with Guan Hai's opinion. After all, it was wartime now. Breaking the formation rashly would be equivalent to opening the door to meet the enemy.
"Guan Cheng, your strategy is too small. Now the enemy only has 30,000 to 40,000 people, but we have more than 300,000 main force. Now open the door to let them in, and then close the door to beat the dogs and surround and annihilate them."
Guan Hai smiled slightly. At this moment, he chose to open the door to meet the enemy. The reason was very simple. He had too much capital. As long as Xun Yu dared to rush into his army, he would be sure to keep them all.
"Okay, so that's what you had in mind. I understand. Let's start the formation."
The Yellow Turban formation split open instantly, allowing Zhang Li's defeated troops to rush into the battle formation. Cao Hong saw how he could miss the opportunity in front of him, and rushed in first.
Cao Hong entered the formation, but Le Jin did not stop and rushed in with nearly 30,000 Cao troops.
"The fish is hooked. Let's go down and close the formation. I'm going to close the door and beat the dogs and annihilate them all."
Guan Hai saw all Cao's troops marching into battle from a distance, and he couldn't help but smile.
"promise."
Guan Hai's army gave an order, and the Yellow Turban army's formation, which had originally split, slowly closed, as if a huge beast from the sky had swallowed up Cao's army entirely.
"Military advisor, is General Cao in danger?"
Xun Yu did not enter the battle, but was guarded in the distance by three thousand cavalry.
"Dangerous? A general will inevitably die in battle. There is nothing dangerous about marching and fighting."
Xun Yu smiled softly and gave such an explanation.
"Although it is said that General Cao rushed into the Yellow Turban Army formation, why do I feel like a sheep falling into a tiger's mouth?"
Xun Yu's words did not make the captain worry, but made him even more worried.
"Sheep in the tiger's mouth? Maybe Guan Hai thought the same way, but Cao Hong, Le Jin and the 25,000 elite Cao family under their command were not sheep, but real man-loving tigers who swallowed them up.
Guan Hai is the one who should feel uncomfortable."
"I see."
Xun Yu calmed down the nervous three thousand elite knights with such a light word. This is the ability that a top commander should have. Every word and deed can have the greatest impact on his soldiers.
Although Xun Yu said this, his eyes kept staring at the battlefield, which was enough to show that he was nervous at this moment.
Cao Cao's army entered the country, but the process was different from what Guan Hai and others thought.
They originally imagined that Cao's army would be easy to deal with if they were surrounded, but Cao's army ran rampant in their formation, and their own troops could not capture them. Although the number of Cao's troops was getting smaller and smaller, their own casualties were dramatic.
Increase.
"Brother Guan Hai, these officers and soldiers are really difficult to deal with."
Xu He frowned and approached Guan Hai, his face full of depression.
"They are difficult to deal with and we must capture them at all costs. If they escape, we will be in trouble."
Although Guan Hai also frowned, the situation in front of him was still acceptable.
"knew."
Guan Hai said this, and Xu He had nothing else to say. The arrow had to be fired when it was on the string, and that was all it could do.
"General Cao Hong, we can't charge anymore."
Le Jin estimated the distance, killed two Yellow Turbans, and then approached Cao Hong.
"Um?"
As Le Jin spoke, Cao Hong raised his eyes and looked at the distance. The killing just now was too crazy, and it was indeed a bit too far.
"How about we turn around and go back now?"
Le Jin shot the approaching Yellow Turban to death, then turned to Cao Hong for advice.
Cao Hong chopped down the two yellow scarves with one blow, and looked at Le Jin without wiping the blood.
"We can't turn around now, because the military advisor's order hasn't come yet, which proves that we haven't killed enough. We can order the troops to postpone their advance and form formations to kill the enemy on the spot."
Hearing Cao Hong's words, Le Jin nodded. Indeed, if Xun Yu's signal did not come, they could not turn around, otherwise they would not be able to take away the main force of the Yellow Turbans, and all the arrangements would be in vain.
Cao Hong and Le Jin slowed down their progress, and the entire Cao army also slowed down and began to form formations to kill the Yellow Turbans coming from all directions.
"Brother, the officers and soldiers have stopped moving and have begun to defend."
Guan Cheng watched Cao's army huddled in defense in the distance, and couldn't help laughing excitedly.
"Well, they can't attack anymore. It proves that they are exhausted. We ordered an all-out encirclement and suppression."
Guan Hai also nodded. At first, the momentum of Cao's army was too great, and they couldn't resist it. But as long as it slows down, it will be easier to handle. After all, it will be difficult for two to thirty thousand people to face an enemy ten times their size.
.
"Military advisor, can't you do it?"
When the cavalry captain saw Cao Hong and the others stopped, the tension in his heart soared again.
"Well, that's almost it. It's estimated that 10,000 or 20,000 Yellow Turbans have died at the hands of Zi Lian now. The Yellow Turbans also know how powerful we are and will never let them go so easily. Ming Jin withdraws his troops."
Xun Yu nodded, and Cao Hong stopped the car. Although he knew that he was just rushing too fast and needed to slow down, he couldn't help but tighten the string. If he was exhausted, he would be in trouble.
"promise."
"Dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang-dang."
The sound of ringing gold was clear and sweet, and instantly penetrated the entire battlefield.
When Cao Hong and Le Jin heard the sound of Ming Jin, the corners of their mouths couldn't help but curl up, and they each smiled.
"Brothers, fight back."
"Kill back."
The two men turned their horses and fired with swords and shots, which was inhumane. The Yellow Turbans had no enemy at all. The elite Cao army behind them also opened fire with full firepower, killing the Yellow Turbans until they howled like wolves.
"Commander, I can't stop you."
Seeing his men fall one by one, Cao Jun also started to move from the center to the edge.
"If you can't stop them, you have to stop them. There are only more than 20,000 people. We must keep them."
Guan Hai was about to explode with anger. He was exhausted as promised, but he suddenly became lively again in the blink of an eye. Isn't this kidding himself?
"promise."
Although Guan Hai's military orders arrived, the weak Yellow Turban Army was still unable to resist the hungry tiger-like Cao Army.
After fighting for a while, the Cao army led by Cao Hong finally broke through the siege and escaped to the outskirts of the Yellow Turban.
"Let's go to Jishui."
Seeing Cao Hong break out of the siege, Xun Yu said nothing and retreated towards Jishui with 3,000 cavalry.
After fighting out, Cao Hong did not hesitate and led his troops straight to Jishui.
"Guan Hai, the officers and soldiers want to run away."
When Xu He saw Cao Hong leading his troops to evacuate, he couldn't help but feel anxious.
"Order the entire army to pursue us. We must not let this group of enemies escape."
How could Guan Hai let the ducks he obtained run away? Besides, if he didn't kill them, it would be difficult to attack Lu County by himself, so he directly ordered the entire army to pursue them.
"promise."
The 300,000-strong Yellow Turban army spread out and stepped on the yellow sand in the sky, chasing Cao Hong and the others at full speed.
"Tell brothers, don't rush too fast, just hang at the back of the team."
Xu Huang was also paying attention to the dynamics of the battlefield. When he saw Cao Hong retreating and Guan Hai couldn't hold back the whole army's pursuit, he knew that the real drama was about to begin. Next was the time to test himself. Whether he could turn the tide would depend on the truth.
