With 7000 men and horses attacking, this bet is equivalent to betting on most of the cavalry in Cao Ying's camp. It is a gamble.

"When will the men and horses leave?"

"Just tonight!"

…………………………………………………………………………

The governor of Yuzhou, Kong Ni, is now very proud of the spring breeze. After receiving Tao Qian's letter of distress, he immediately sent troops to rescue. Now the [-] army has crossed the border and is marching towards Xuzhou in great strength. Wherever the army goes, people shout and neigh , The momentum is like a rainbow, and the dust that rises covers half of the sky. With such a heroic soldier in hand, it should be easy to repel Cao Jun.

Of course, friends belong to friends, and interests belong to interests. This time, sending troops is not for nothing. Tao Qian has already promised to give him 20 hu of military rations, 5 pieces of cloth, [-] army horses, and [-] taels of gold. The cost of sending troops.

In addition, since then, Xuzhou will provide [-] shi of sea salt every year for free. There is no shortage of salt in the prefectures outside Xu, Xu, and Yang, especially in bitter cold places like Xiliang, where a few catties of salt can be exchanged for a fat and strong prairie cow, or a sixteen or seventeen-year-old prairie cow. girl!

"How far is our army from Xuzhou City?" Thinking of these benefits, Kong Ni was full of energy, wishing to fly to Xuzhou City immediately.

"Return to Lord Inspector, our army will reach the city of Xuzhou in four days' journey!"

"Rescuing soldiers is like putting out a fire. Send an order to speed up the march. You must arrive in Xuzhou within three days. Anyone who dares to delay without reason will be killed!"

With an order, the Yuzhou soldiers and horses immediately accelerated their marching pace, and ran forward in a dusty manner. As a result, they ran all the way down. The originally neat marching ranks gradually became chaotic, and the elite soldiers naturally rushed to the front. , Ordinary soldiers ran in the middle, and those Zizhong soldiers driving the grain carts fell far behind. The whole team was like a long snake being pulled, not to mention the front heavy and the back light, and it was difficult to respond from the beginning to the end!

The Yuzhou army, who was busy on their way, naturally did not expect that not far away, a group of "wolves" had secretly followed them!

317. Chapter 317

Thirty miles away in a mountain forest, Xiao Yi's 7000 troops secretly lurked here. In order to maintain absolute silence, the soldiers all carried small wooden sticks in their mouths, the horses' hooves were also wrapped in sackcloth, and the mighty bells around their necks were even earlier. I just unloaded it, and no one would be able to discover the secret here if it wasn't for a closer inspection!

The reconnaissance rangers kept reporting the situation of the Yuzhou army. In fact, one only needs to look at the dust floating in the sky to know that the enemy army is getting closer and closer!

"My lord general, the Yuzhou army is gradually approaching, and the vanguard is less than ten miles away!" The voices of the rangers trembled a little. With the speed of cavalry fighting, this is only the distance of a charge.

"Give the order, the whole army will continue to lurk, and anyone who dares to speak or move will be killed!" Xiao Yi didn't even open his eyes, but just sat quietly on a boulder, meditating according to the Taoist mentality.

"promise!"

Everyone in the Xuanjia Army obeyed orders, and no one had any objections. They always used two words for Xiao Yi's orders --- obey!

But others are not so obedient!

Cao Xiu and Yu Jin, who were ordered to accompany them, sat not far away. Both of them were young heroes, skilled in bow and horse, and extraordinary in martial arts. Naturally, their hearts were full of arrogance!

This is their first time leading troops into battle, and they are extremely eager to kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds. Now the enemy army is close at hand, but the military order sent them to continue to hide. The two looked at each other, their eyes full of impatience And the look of resentment!

I came all the way from the city of Xuzhou, and today is exactly the third day, that is to say, after tonight, all their rations will be eaten up, and everyone will be hungry; Why don't you attack yet?

Unable to hold back the impatience in their hearts anymore, the two plucked up the courage and walked over. They had to ask clearly, if Xiao Yi didn't do anything again, then they would do it themselves!

"Xiao, Xiao, Xiao...General, the enemy is approaching, I...why don't we go out all at once?"

When he got close, he became timid before he could speak, his legs were as soft as noodles. When he came to join the army, Xiao Yi happened to be the examiner, which made him feel an indescribable sense of fear. Cao Xiu mustered up the courage to stammer and speak out.

In addition to being a child of the Cao family, Cao Xiu has another identity-he is Cao Cao's follower, the adopted son!

Cao Xiu lost his father when he was young. Later, when Cao Cao saw that he was smart, he took him to his family to raise him as his own. He was no less emotionally inferior than Cao Pi and Cao Zhi brothers; this is why he dared to stand up and question Xiao Yi.

No matter how strong Xiao Yi is, he is still an outsider, and his surname is Cao.

"Oh? You want to know why?" Xiao Yi slowly opened his eyes, and immediately shot out two faint cold lights, like a wolf staring at its prey!

"I want to..., I want to know!" Although they were afraid, Cao Xiu and Yu Jin still bit the bullet and asked for the answer.

"Very good!... You are brave enough. After this battle, each of you will receive fifty lashes, which is regarded as punishment for questioning the military order!" Xiao Yi smiled lightly, and Cao Cao entrusted these two guys to him to use. In addition to strengthening the strength of the ambush, there is another meaning that they want to take the opportunity to sharpen and get rid of the arrogance in their hearts.

"No!" Although they were dissatisfied in their hearts, the two dared not say anything more, the name of 'Ghost Face Xiao Lang' was too important in Cao Jun!

"Look, I'll explain it again. As for how much you can comprehend, it depends on your good fortune!" Xiao Yi picked up a wooden stick and drew a picture of a cow on the ground, "Yuzhou's army is fifty thousand, just like this cow. Similarly, strength is infinite, and our 7000 men are just a wolf. Although they do their calculations mentally and unintentionally, the difference in strength is too great after all;

If we hit his former army at this time, it would be head-to-head. Even if we could barely win, the soldiers would inevitably suffer heavy casualties.

Therefore, this general gave an order - stand still, let go of the elite of his former army, and not touch his central army, but wait for the large group of troops to pass, and specifically attack his rear army, which are old, weak, sick soldiers escorting food and grass , a charge is to disperse, and then we drive the defeated army to attack his central army, and then drive the central army to attack his front army, forming a chain reaction, allowing the defeated army to trample on each other, so that we can defeat this bull with little effort ! "

Speaking of this, Xiao Yi started from the ox's tail, along the ox's waist and ox's head, and drew a stroke fiercely, like a sharp sword splitting the ox in half!

"Hiss... the final general is convinced!" Looking at the bull-shaped pattern that was divided into two on the ground, Cao Xiu and Yu Jin knelt on one knee, dripping with cold sweat. , It's such a clever tactic, just like a wolf on the grassland digging up an ox, it specifically lays its claws on the vital points, and it's effortless!

"Go down!" Xiao Yi waved his hand, not wanting to say anything more. In fact, this is just a game to hone newcomers. Let him pretend to be a bad face and kill the arrogance of these two guys, so as to save him from suffering big losses in the future. After this battle, Cao Cao will definitely come out to put on a red face and give them official titles as a sign of encouragement.

After such a baptism, their military experience will gradually become mature, and they will become generals who can take charge of the army on their own, and Cao Cao will have two more people who can be used; Why do people have such a bad reputation?

If I remember correctly, Cao Xiu is 21 years old this year, Yu Jin is 25 years old, and I am the only one. Who are we young people?

Just like that, the 7000 men and horses continued to lurk in the forest like wolves, motionless, and only after all the enemies passed by did they slowly come out of the forest and follow them up...

"The whole army is on horseback, ready to attack!" At dusk, Xiao Yi finally gave the order to attack, "Brothers, we have run out of rations, and if we want to survive, we must grab them from the enemy. Can we have meat tonight? It's all up to you if you have wine to drink!"

This is called 'put to death and live later', let the soldiers know that they are on the verge of life and death, so as to stimulate the strongest combat effectiveness!

"Roar! Roar! Roar!..." With three shouts, seven thousand soldiers, led by Xiao Yi, charged towards the enemy's rear like a pack of wolves~~

..................................................................................................................

On both sides of the official road leading to Xuzhou, the Yuzhou soldiers were busy burying pots and making food. After a day of forced marching, everyone was already hungry. Going to grab food, anyway, we have to set out early tomorrow morning, who has the strength to cut down trees, set up camps, and dig trenches...

Just as they were eating deliciously, the ground suddenly trembled slightly, and then countless black armored cavalry roared towards them...

"Run!..."

"It's an enemy attack!...Enemy attack!"

The rear troops were all heavy soldiers escorting food and grass. Their combat effectiveness was not strong, and they attacked suddenly. They immediately dropped the bowls and chopsticks in their hands.

"Kill them!... Cut them all!" The soldiers of the Xuanjia Army had recharged their energy for a long time, and now they were fighting extremely fiercely, with weapons flying in their hands. These Yuzhou soldiers who were killed were crying for their fathers and shouting, they were in a panic.

Some Yuzhou generals wanted to resist, but before they could line up their formation, their own rout soldiers rushed over, no matter how much they yelled and slashed, they couldn't stop them, and finally the soldiers and horses of their headquarters became If the army is defeated, there is no way, even if Sun Wu is resurrected, there is nothing he can do. Let's run together...

No one knows how many people he killed. The sabers of many soldiers of the Xuanjia Army were cut to the point of rolling their blades. In the end, they were too lazy to cut again, and directly urged their horses to trample past the densest enemy group, leaving only The next slices of pink meat puree...

Charge all the way, defeat all the way, trample all the way!

At dawn, the battle finally calmed down. The [-] Yuzhou army was completely defeated, and over [-] were trampled to death by the rebel army. The rest discarded their knives and guns and obediently became prisoners. Among the army, when he found his body, it had already been trampled into a pile of mud, and his identity was proved only by the clothes fragments on his body and a 'Yuzhou Inspector's Great Seal' on his waist.

"General, what should we do next?" Cao Xiu and Yu Jin ran over happily. This battle was really a joy to kill. With 7000 troops, they defeated [-] enemy troops and captured countless supplies. Such a victory Enough to leave a name in history!

"Next step, you immediately return to the city of Xuzhou with the captured food and grass, and order Cao Gonggong!"

"How about you, General?"

"Hehe!... I naturally have a better place to go!" Xiao Yi showed a sinister smile while playing with the 'Yuzhou Inspector's Letter' in his hand.
