Xun Yu didn't move, and Cheng Yu didn't dare to lead his troops to attack the Yellow Turbans easily. He could only watch the Yellow Turbans escape from his grasp, which was really frustrating.
"It's not that I can't see clearly, it's just a matter of weighing the pros and cons."
The so-called balance of strength means that what you can't get is what others can't get. It's like his second favor. He would rather let the yellow scarf escape than give Cheng Yu an advantage.
Now that the siege of Lu County has been resolved, it will be time to join forces with Bao Xin and several important figures to propose that Cao Cao be the governor of Yanzhou.
The strategy of obtaining Yanzhou's own can be regarded as initially achieved. As for recruiting more troops, it is enough. I am strong but the enemy is not strong. That's enough.
"The vertical pillar is not enough and the strategy is insufficient."
This time Cheng Yu immediately started swearing.
"Each other."
Xun Yu was not angry. Only losers would be angry. He did not think that he had lost.
"Hmph, three generals, gather your troops and return to Pingyin Ferry."
Since Xun Yu is determined to fight with him, there is no point in staying here anymore.
Zhang Fei was also furious, looking at Xun Yu not far away with an angry light in his eyes.
"Let's go, there's no point in talking."
Cheng Yu pulled Zhang Fei, fearing that he would do something reckless.
"Xun Yu, I will kill you."
Zhang Fei also knew that Qi returned to Qi, but it was of no use. He couldn't help but shook his head and went to gather his troops.
In half an hour, Cheng Yu led his soldiers, horses and prisoners towards Pingyin Ferry.
"Commander, do you want to follow me?"
Cao Hong came to Xun Yu's side and looked at Liu Bei's army going away with a burst of fire.
"Now is not the time. The fight between snipe and clam will only benefit the Yellow Turbans, but Liu Bei will fall at the hands of the lord sooner or later."
Xun Yu shook his head.
"Then Military Advisor, aren't you worried that he pretends to be returning to Pingyindu, but actually goes to Lu County to pursue the Yellow Turbans?"
Although Xun Yu said this, Cao Hong was still a little unwilling.
"Zilian, if you were Cheng Yu, would you dare to attack the Yellow Turbans under the current situation? Besides, it would be difficult for Cheng Yu to annihilate hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turbans with his own strength."
Regarding Cao Hong's worries, Xun Yu was not worried at all, while Cheng Yu did not dare or could not.
"Then what should we do now?"
Le Jin looked at the situation in front of him and didn't know what to do.
"Now? Pack up your troops and wait for General Xiahou to return. I hope he can give me a surprise."
Xun Yu smiled slightly, full of longing for the future.
"I see. Although General Xiahou's 10,000 troops are not many, they are more than enough to snatch many prisoners from the defeated Yellow Turbans."
After hearing Xun Yu's words, Le Jin was stunned for a moment, and then started laughing.
"Wen Qian, just see through it without telling it, hahahaha."
Half an hour later, Xiahou Dun came to Jishui with thousands of remaining soldiers to fight with Xun Yu.
"General Xiahou, what is going on?"
Seeing that Xiahou Dun was covered in blood and his soldiers and horses had their heads hanging down, Xun Yu couldn't help but frowned.
"Military Advisor, after I led the Yellow Turbans into Pingyin Crossing, I led my troops to Lu County to set up an ambush. However, they were defeated by the Yellow Turbans and suffered heavy losses. I also ask the Military Advisor to punish them."
Xiahou Dun knelt on one knee, his eyes full of guilt.
"What? Defeated by the Yellow Turban? Tell me more about it."
Xun Yu's brows furrowed even more when he heard Xiahou Dun's words. He never expected that Xiahou Dun would be defeated by the Yellow Turban.
"I led 7,000 troops to fight against 20,000 Yellow Turbans, but this Yellow Turbans are different from the previous Yellow Turbans. Their combat power is still the same, but their fighting will is extremely tenacious. No matter how many times our army breaks through, it will be blocked by the Yellow Turbans. In desperation,
I can only lead my troops to evacuate."
Speaking of this, Xiahou Dun's face was full of helplessness and confusion. It would not be an exaggeration if the Yellow Turbans had such fighting will when Zhang Jue was alive, but since Zhang Jiao's death, there have never been such Yellow Turbans.
"Military advisor, the Yellow Turbans have already been killed. Why are there still such elites?"
Le Jin also frowned, he couldn't figure it out either.
"It is already difficult to organize the defeated Yellow Turbans in a short period of time. To organize such a resilient Yellow Turbans, there are only two possibilities. The first is that Zhang Jiao is reincarnated, and the second is that he has seen through my plan.
We have made preparations in advance, it seems there are capable people in the Yellow Turbans."
When Xiahou Dun was talking, Xun Yu was thinking, this person is definitely not as simple as the Yellow Turbans. What is his plan to get involved in the Yellow Turbans? Is there a third person besides himself and Cheng Yu involved?
Who will this third person be? Is it Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao, Dong Zhuo from Chang'an, or other princes?
"Then what should we do now?"
Li Dian came to Xun Yu.
"The army is temporarily resting. No matter who this person is or what his thoughts are, Jibei Kingdom now has our and Cheng Yu's elites. In any case, this place is already a place of right and wrong. He will definitely choose to leave as soon as possible. Let's see what happens next for the Yellow Turbans.
Action will determine our next move.”
After Xun Yu finished speaking, a ray of light flashed in his eyes. As long as the Yellow Turban made any move, he could basically determine where this person belonged, and the fisherman's identity would be clear.
He dared to plot against himself, and Xun Yu recorded the account.
"Report, Marshal Yuan Ling was intercepted by Cao Cao's Xiahou Dun troops in front. After a fierce battle, Xiahou Dun's troops were driven back."
When Xun Yu was arguing with Cheng Yu, Ji Ling also sent someone to report the news of Xiahou Dun's defeat to Xu Huang.
"Okay, Yuan Ling is really a brave man. The whole army will obey the order, the rear army will be on guard, and the Chinese army will return to Lu County at an even speed."
Hearing that Ji Ling had repelled Xiahou Dun, Xu Huang felt a little relieved. The road back to Lu County was basically clear after leaving Xiahou Dun behind. As long as Xun Yu and Cheng Yu did not reach a reconciliation, he would be confident.
Lead these Yellow Turbans back to Qingzhou.
It was already afternoon and evening when Xu Huang led the remnants of the Yellow Turban army back outside Lu County.
"Congratulations to welcome the commander back to camp."
Ji Ling had been waiting outside for a long time. When he saw Xu Huang returning, he immediately greeted him with a smile.
"Shuai Yuan Ling, you have done a good job and deserve a reward. How about giving you ten beauties?"
Looking at Ji Ling's thief-like smile, Xu Huang's face fell.
"Forget it, I don't have the luxury to bear it."
Ji Ling shook his head, his face full of depression.
"The armies will take a temporary rest and gather all the commanders to discuss matters in the big tent."
After settling down the defeated Yellow Turban soldiers for dinner, Xu Huang came to Guan Hai and his group's original tent and summoned all the commanders to discuss matters.
After nearly half an hour, the eight young commanders came to the big tent.
Looking at the two or three kittens in front of me, I knew how badly Huang Jin was beaten this time.
Logically speaking, the main force of the 400,000 Yellow Turbans should have forty marshals, but so far only a few of them have come. It can be seen that the Yellow Turbans are really in trouble this time.
But there are advantages and disadvantages. The fewer these handsome men are, the less resistance there will be to your actions next.
