Chapter 894

After Cao Cao refused Cao Chun's request, he looked at him and frowned.

Although Xia Houyuan led Cao's army as the vanguard, he constantly attacked the Yanzhou army, but the Yanzhou army under the command of Yu ban was like an iron bucket, which could not be attacked dead or alive.

Under the command of the ban, the Yanzhou army was very calm. It was divided into many battle lines and depended on each other. Even though Cao's army broke the battle line with a sharp spirit, the retreating Yanzhou army was not lax. Under the command of the ban, it was reorganized into a new battle array and turned into an iron wall.

"It is said that Liu Yuqing had four generals under his command." Cao Cao sighed: "in Xiliang, Ma Chao, the iron horse breaks through everything; the east of the river flows slowly, and it's hard to resist it; the soldiers between the two rivers are skillfully used, and they are not rigidly attached to the terrain; and this is the best defense. From the time of attacking the Yellow turban thieves, it is Liu Yuqing's shield, which is true."

Most of the five excellent generals of the Wei Dynasty were good at offensive warfare, such as Zhang Liao. When Sun Quan besieged Xiaoyaojin, Zhang Liao not only did not stick to Hefei, but led 8000 soldiers to fight. As a result, Sun Quan was nearly captured and a defensive battle was turned into an offensive war.

Xu Huang, lejin, Zhang jaw and others were all inclined to attack Jiangling. Xu Huang led his troops into the battle of Xiangfan and broke through Guan Yu's ten layers of antlers. Lejin was famous for his bravery first. Zhang jaw was also more offensive than defensive.

Yu Jin's style is quite different from the four of them, and has always been famous for his good defense. During the war of Guandu, Liu Bei appeared behind Cao's army. Cao Cao quickly led his troops to fight against the rebellion, but it was Yu Jin who left the guard of Guandu to defend Yuan Shao.

Moreover, it turns out that Cao Cao ordered Yu Jin to lead seven armies to attack Guan Yu and rescue Cao Ren. As a result, Guan Yu's whole army was destroyed.

Although the attack was unfavorable, the scene before us proved that Yu ban was indeed good at defending.

"Attack, attack, those who break into the enemy's array will be rewarded with great rewards!"

Xia Houyuan yelled and drank, while he personally led the troops to attack. Xiahou Yuangui was a general of the imperial family of Cao Wei and a general of Zhenxi. At the moment, he personally led his troops to attack. Seeing this, Cao's army naturally had a great morale and rushed forward one after another. However, the battle lines of Yanzhou army were stacked together, just like a city wall, standing still.

"If you are clever and brave, you will be brave, but you will be too reckless. When you are timid, how can you rely on courage?" Cao Cao could not help frowning when he saw Xia Houyuan leading his troops in front of him.

"Sun Li, you led two thousand sharp soldiers to take them after the battle. Later, the general ordered the front formation to open a hole. You immediately led the troops to fight back, and you must defeat the spirit of Cao army. Do you understand?" Yu Jin ordered Sun Li.

Sun Li felt very guilty about losing Taishan county. After hearing Yu Ban's order, he naturally agreed. Immediately led two thousand sharp soldiers to hide in the array, motionless.

"By order, the front army retreated to the left and right to make way for Cao's army to come in." Yu ban ordered.

The flag soldiers of the Chinese Army naturally waved and waved the flag when they heard this. Although it was strange that the former commander saw the order of Yu ban, he did not question the order but retreated to the left and right.

Seeing that the enemy suddenly got out of the way, Xia Houyuan, who had worked hard for a long time, couldn't help but be overjoyed: "great, the whole army obeys the orders and pounces on the enemy!"

Twenty thousand Cao troops stormed the forbidden army for a long time, but they were unable to attack from the beginning to the end. They had accumulated a lot of anger. At the moment, they saw that the enemy had let go of a hole. Naturally, they were overjoyed and roared forward.

"Kill!"

Cao Cao in the distance frowned: "not good."

"Prime minister, why not say it well?" Cao Xiu on one side frowned.

"Wenlie, look."

Cao Cao pointed to the formation of Yu ban and pointed out: "although the former army retreated to the left and right, it was not a collapse, but an orderly retreat. It is obvious that Yu ban had been premeditated."

"Prime minister, tiger and leopard have been riding for a long time. How about attacking?" Cao Xiu couldn't wait for the way.

"Well... Order the tiger and leopard to ride and prepare. When you see the order of the prime minister, prepare to attack." Cao Cao nodded slowly.

At this time, Xia Houyuan had led the Cao army's vanguard, "overwhelming force" into the Yanzhou army, high morale.

"Ha ha, Xia Houyuan has a plan. Let's kill them with me and fight back the enemy!"

At this time, Sun Li suddenly burst out laughing. With a wave of his arm, two thousand sharp soldiers suddenly killed him.

"Kill!"

These two thousand soldiers had been hiding in the central army. At the moment, they suddenly sent out their troops. They really kept their strength and energy, and their spirit suddenly revealed.

The array formed by two thousand sharp soldiers was like a sharp knife flying into the front of the Cao army. It was easy to make a cut in the Cao army.

This group of Cao soldiers had already stormed the Yanzhou army for a long time. In fact, their spirit had been consumed for a long time. Now they suddenly met Sun Li, who led Yanzhou soldiers to kill them. Under the confrontation between the two armies, the momentum of Cao's attack was certainly defeated at one stroke. Just like the battle of the long spoon of Qilu, the Qi army's fierce attack consumed the spirit, and was defeated by the weak Lu army."Damn it, don't retreat. The enemy is only two thousand. Our army is ten times as much as the enemy. What are we afraid of? Kill

Xia Hou yuan was very angry. He had already killed red eyes and led more than ten thousand Cao troops to launch a fierce attack on the enemy.

However, although the number of Cao's troops was large, their spirit was not enough. Under the impact of 2000 elite troops of the central army, they began to retreat gradually. It seemed that the whole army array was going to be cut through by the enemy at one fell swoop, and there was a trend that one was divided into two.

Yu Jin laughed and turned to Xu Shu and said, "military master, Xia Houyuan is brave and resourceless. He was defeated by our army so quickly. Ha ha ha."

Xu Shu nodded and said with a smile: "general, although XiaHouYuan's military strength is large, its momentum has been defeated by our army. You can order the central army to crush it and surround the front and rear armies to block and kill Xia Houyuan's army."

"Xia Houyuan is trapped in our army's siege, Cao Cao must send troops to rescue him. Our army can send a partial division to block Cao's invasion, and then destroy XiaHouYuan as soon as possible!"

"Xia Houyuan is a general of Cao Cao's clan. He has a different position and is proficient in military strategy. If he can capture Xia Houyuan at one stroke, his army will be weak! Even if Xia Houyuan could not be captured and killed, as long as most of Cao's army could be wiped out, the strategic purpose of the war would have been achieved, and the momentum of Cao's army would have been defeated by our army! "

Yu Jin nodded and solemnly said, "well said the military master!"

"Give me an order. The Chinese army will attack the enemy! The left and right armies again encircle Xiahou yuan and order the front army 5000 soldiers to line up to resist the Cao army
