Chapter 180

Following Meng Chen's roar, the soldiers got up and started running wildly. As long as they can save their lives, then there is nothing else to worry about!

Of course, it's not that there are no smart people in Jiangzhong, but their cleverness was quickly driven back by the Xiliang cavalry on both wings.

In the night, Cao Cao, who was already in the back camp, assembled his troops and prepared to fight back!
With 30 coalition troops, it is very difficult to defeat them with one blow. Cao Cao knew this very well.

As long as the Xiliang army continues to attack, Cao Cao is confident of defeating it.

Although the capture of Cao Ren made Cao Cao brood, but the morale of the army has not yet reached the situation where it will collapse without a fight.

As time passed, the ground began to vibrate rhythmically, and the sound of rumbling thunder approached from far away.

At this moment, all Cao Jun soldiers knew that the Xiliang cavalry had arrived.

However, at the next moment, it was not Xiliang cavalry that appeared in the field of vision, but groups of rout soldiers with disheveled clothes and no weapons in their hands.

"My lord, what should I do?" Cao Hong asked solemnly.

Cao Cao's face was ashen. The purpose of the Xiliang cavalry was obvious, which was to use the broken troops to attack Cao's battle formation.Once the battle formation is dispersed, the consequences can be imagined.

"Archer, shoot the arrow!" Cao Cao made a decision in just a few breaths.

Following Cao Cao's general order, a rain of arrows pierced through the air, and the arrows roared towards the target with the sound of piercing the air.

A moment later, the large group of rout soldiers who rushed to the front fell to the ground with arrows, and there were all kinds of wailing sounds. Such a scene made the rout soldiers stand still with their eyes wide open.

"Zhijie, drive away again!" Meng Chen said happily, since the goal has been achieved, Meng Chen doesn't mind adding fire.

"My lord, it's just as good as it looks." Chen Yaojin laughed loudly, and rode his horse forward quickly.

In the back camp, Yuan Shao's heart was bleeding, and he watched his Jizhou soldiers fall one by one under Cao Jun's arrows.

Although angry, Yuan Shao didn't say much, because he knew that Cao Cao's actions were understandable, and once the rear battalion's formation was broken, the cavalry from Xiliang would follow the trend.

Rumble!
There was a deafening sound of horseshoes, and the Xiliang cavalry began to charge again, and the rout had already collapsed in this situation.

There are cavalry in the back and interception in front. In this case, the routs can only compare the two and take the lesser.

After all, the person in front of him is one of his own!

As a result, driven by the Xiliang army, the rout soldiers rushed forward again.

As the saying goes, murder kills one's heart, and Meng Chen's trick of borrowing a knife to kill someone is completely an upright conspiracy.

From this moment on, Yuan Shao's Jizhou soldiers and soldiers of Cao Jun had a gap in their hearts.

"Retreat!" Seeing the scattered soldiers being shot and killed by Cao Cao's subordinates, Meng Chen decisively issued the general order to retreat.

Roaring in, roaring away, the cavalry of the Xiliang Army is so fast, after the night attack on the camp, Meng Chen remained calm.

Wanting to defeat hundreds of thousands of troops in one fell swoop is not as simple as talking about it!
After a beautiful night attack, the Xiliang army led by Meng Chen returned with a big victory.

Although some troops were lost, compared to the record achieved, it was a drop in the bucket.

Especially in the final move to drive away the rout soldiers, according to the news that Yebu received the investigation after the war, only Cao Jun shot and killed more than [-] Jizhou troops in front of the rear camp.

It is impossible to say that Yuan Shao doesn't feel distressed, but Cao Cao had to do this in order to stabilize the overall situation.

But after all, people's hearts are separated from each other. Since that night, there has been distrust between Jizhou Army and Cao Army, and it seems that there is still a strong hostility spreading.

In general, Mengchen's sudden night attack caused the coalition forces to lose nearly 3 people and injured countless people. In addition, two-thirds of the coalition army's food and grass were destroyed, and there were problems with the grain roads. The morale of the coalition forces was low.

Naturally, there was no way to maintain the siege, but Yuan Shao was reluctant to retreat in his heart.

When Meng Chen returned to Hangu Pass, it was already early in the morning. Although he didn't sleep all night, Meng Chen was full of energy.

After winning the battle and burning most of the food and grass of the coalition forces, let alone how happy I was.

"My lord, after this battle, Hangu Pass will be safe!" Li Cunxiao said to Meng Chen with a smile.

But Meng Chen knew that there was something in Li Cunxiao's words, so he changed his mouth and said: "Brother Cunxiao has something to say, just speak up."

"This battle is of great importance, can my lord prepare for it?"

Li Cunxiao said something in a deep voice, but Meng Chen knew in his heart that what Li Cunxiao meant was to remind Meng Chen.

This battle is of great importance. If Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are directly eliminated, the situation in the world will become clearer.

However, judging from the current situation, Mengchen is not yet capable of unifying the north.

"It is certainly a good thing to be able to eliminate Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, but it is nothing more than spending more time and energy. But the current situation does not allow this."

Listening to Meng Chen's words, Li Cunxiao nodded frequently.

Although the Xiliang army currently has the upper hand, it is not yet the time to unify the north.

"Therefore, it is enough to defeat the combined forces of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao in this battle."

Before Li Cunxiao could answer, Meng Chen continued: "After what happened last night, there has been a disagreement between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, at least for the time being, there is no time to take care of the matter of the Son of Heaven."

"My lord is right. We just use this time to develop our own strength, so as to complete the preparations for unifying the north, and even the whole world."

Meng Chen nodded, then walked to a huge map and meditated.

"Is there any new news from the direction of Hanzhong and Bingzhou?" Meng Chen asked after a while.

As soon as the words fell, Jia Xu hurried in, then took out the information she had just received, and read it carefully.

"There was no reward at night. Liu Bei led his troops to attack Shangyong. The guard Xu Huang used a night attack to retreat Liu Bei and beheaded more than [-] people. According to reliable sources, Liu Bei was shot by an arrow in the chaotic army, and his life and death are uncertain."

"Hahaha, Xu Gongming has the demeanor of a general, and this Marquis is right." Meng Chen laughed loudly.

Originally, Mengchen only hoped that Xu Huang would guard Shangyong, but he unexpectedly brought him a surprise!
After Meng Chen finished speaking, Jia Xu continued: "In Bingzhou, General Meng Yan led an army to defeat Xianbei Helian's troops and captured them."

Taking a breath, Jia Xu continued, "General Meng Yan asked how to deal with Helian?"

"Let it go, Helian can't die yet!"

Meng Chen answered without the slightest hesitation, a split Xianbei couldn't be more suitable for the current situation.

"There is one more thing that needs to be decided by the lord. The Zhen family in Jizhou has expressed their intention to contribute."

"Effective? The heart of harming others is necessary, and the heart of defense is indispensable! Let Anbu go and investigate."

"promise."

The battle at Hangu Pass is not over yet, but the pressure Mengchen has brought to Jizhou has become apparent, and internal divisions will do nothing to eliminate Yuan Shao's forces.

But at times like this, Meng Chen needs to be more cautious. Yuan Shao's status today is definitely not something that can be obtained by just talking about it.

Meng Chen still understands the reason why a skinny camel is bigger than a horse!
