Volume 1 Chapter 122 Defeat Lu Bu!

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    When Cao Ang saw that the camp gate was breached, he knew that things would not go well today.  Lu Bu hadn't even taken the field yet, but he had only sent a few generals to force him to use up all his cards. If Lu Bu took action, it would be difficult for Cao Ying to win with Fang Yue's 200 men alone, and he would have to find another way.

    Thinking of this, he couldn't help but complain in his heart, Lu Bu, you said you quietly evacuated from Hulao Pass, you should be on your way, why did you launch a strong attack on my camp?  The road is so wide, so everyone can go their own way. With so many cavalry, are you still afraid that we will harass you and make a surprise attack?

    Thinking of this, Cao Ang suddenly felt something in his heart. Lu Bu's army is not afraid of harassment and following, but this does not mean that his logistics troops are not afraid of attack!  At present, each of Lu Bu's subordinates will launch an attack on the camp, and Lu Bu's main formation also has a tendency to move forward, and there are not many troops on standby outside the camp. This means that Lu Bu is here mainly to command the combat troops, and his baggage troops should still be there.  Fall behind!

    Thinking of this, Cao Ang roughly understood Lu Bu's thoughts.  This guy must have found out about Dong Zhuo's move to the capital. He was afraid that his Bingzhou troops would be betrayed, so he set out lightly and immediately withdrew all the combat troops from Hulao Pass and retreated to Luoyang.  These days, if you have soldiers, you have capital, and if you have soldiers, you have status.

    But Lu Bu was used to being poor, and he couldn't bear to part with the supplies and food he had collected and accumulated with great difficulty, so he also ordered the withdrawal of the baggage troops.  In this way, the baggage troops were easily attacked by the Allied troops, so Lu Bu went against the norm and attacked all the troops he encountered along the way, such as Huang Gai and Cao Ang.  His purpose is to allow logistics troops to pass more safely!

    Thinking of this, Cao Ang immediately ordered the two men around him: "L¨¹ Bu's troops and horses are limited after all. It is impossible to completely blockade our army camp. There must be loopholes. You two immediately mount your fast horses and slip out of the camp.  Go to the direction of Hulao Pass and see if there are a large number of baggage troops behind the official road. If you find the enemy's baggage troops, blow the horn to call the police!"

    The two men nodded, immediately rode their horses and slipped out of the camp, rushing towards the distance.  The horns they wore were bought from Sun Jian's camp. They were all made of buffalo horns from the south. There were certain differences from the horns of land buffaloes in the north. Experienced people could easily hear them.

    After arranging the two people, Cao Ang ordered the guards around him to quickly gather people in the camp. When there were about sixty or seventy people gathered, he happened to hear the sound of buffalo horns coming from the distance.

    Cao Ang was overjoyed and immediately led his guards to the village wall and found Liao Hua, who was organizing a defensive operation.

    Cao Ang whispered to Liao Hua: "Yuanjian, I will take command here on your behalf. You immediately lead my newly assembled soldiers out of the camp to perform a special mission!"

    Liao Hua was very surprised, and Cao Ang gave him a general summary of his speculations, and finally said in a deep voice: "The situation of our army is not very good now. The camp gate has been lost, and Shi Huan is trying his best to set up a new line of defense.  . But Lu Bu has not yet gone into battle in person, and the pressure we will face may be greater and stronger. Whether we can scare away the enemy troops and give everyone a chance to breathe, it all depends on you!"

    Liao Hua nodded vigorously: "Lord, don't worry, the general will do his best! It's just"

    He lowered his voice and took a step forward: "Master, can you accompany the general out of the camp? If nothing happens, you can get out as soon as possible!"

    Cao Ang shook his head, "Yuanjian, I trust everyone, and everyone trusts me; everyone will not betray me casually, and I will not betray everyone to escape alone! If nothing can be done tonight, I will only gather the troops to fight, and the last batch  Get away! I value your ability, but don¡¯t let me underestimate you!"

    Liao Hua's face turned red and he said no more. He just saluted Cao Ang solemnly and took advantage of the gap between enemy attacks to quietly lead his troops out of the camp.

    Cao Ang didn't pay much attention to Liao Hua. He just ordered everyone to report the situation immediately.  Soon, various military lords from Quzhou sent people to report, and Cao Ang soon had a general understanding of the defense on the wall.

    It seems that Lu Bu sent Hao Meng, Wei Xu, and Cheng Lian to attack the wall at the same time. However, Hao Meng was always slippery. Although he had many troops and horses, he did not send elite troops into battle, and the attack always seemed weak; while Wei Xu  Believing that he was Lu Bu's in-law, he was not afraid of Lu Bu's scolding and was afraid of losing his strength, so he did not attack with all his strength. Only Cheng Lian, who had neither Hao Meng's strength nor Wei Xu's support, would only obey Lu Bu's orders, so  Attack the hardest!  According to the current statistics of the battle results, Cheng Lian's troops have lost at least more than 500 people. You must know that the total number of troops in his hands does not exceed 2,000!

    Cao Ang frowned. He didn¡¯t fight the lazy ones or the greedy ones, but only the ones who didn¡¯t have a good eye!  He immediately ordered to deploy troops to prepare for a counterattack based on the enemy's situation in each song!

    About half a momentAfterwards, the counterattack personnel from all walks of life came to Cao Ang's side. According to a rough count, there were about three hundred people.  Cao Ang immediately adjusted the organization and roughly formed three tuns and six teams.

    So Cao Ang summoned the uncles from these six teams and said in a deep voice: "Brothers, I will not hide it from you. Now the camp gate has been lost, and Shi Huan is leading the reserve team to organize the next line of defense! If the enemy army increases again,  Due to the scale of the attack, General Shi Huan is unable to assist us, and we can only rely on ourselves to resist! In this case, it is better to launch a counterattack now to disrupt the enemy's offensive pace and gain an opportunity for our army to turn defeat into victory!

    My plan is this. After the enemy¡¯s next charge, we launch an attack on Wei Xu¡¯s headquarters.  Wei Xu is Lu Bu's in-law, so even if he is temporarily defeated, he will not be sanctioned by Lu Bu.  Therefore, when he faced the furious attack of our army, his first reaction should not be to resist, but to lead his army to retreat!  Let's take advantage of this opportunity to repel their troops and defeat them!

    "Once Wei Xu's troops are defeated, the enemy Hao Meng and the soldiers of Cheng Lian's troops will definitely feel panic, so we will take this opportunity to attack Cheng Lian's troops."

    Although Cheng Lian was the one with the strongest sense of war, his troops were also the most severely damaged and the weakest among the three armies.  Although the general has a strong fighting spirit, his soldiers are likely to follow our example after seeing Wei Xu's troops retreat without punishment; even if they resist vigorously, their strength is seriously damaged, and they should not be able to withstand our attack.  , it is very likely to be repelled by our army.

    At this time, let¡¯s take advantage of the situation and attack Hao Meng¡¯s headquarters!  With Wei Xu taking the lead in retreating as an excuse, and Youcheng being outnumbered as a lesson, Hao Meng, whose top priority is to preserve his strength, should also take the initiative to retreat!

    In this way, we can defeat the enemy's three-armed siege in one fell swoop and break into the enemy's main line.  Liao Hua has been sent by me to sneak attack Lu Bu's food and supplies troops, and he should be able to get it soon!  Even if he can't succeed, he can still set fire to create momentum.  In this way, when the other party sees the fire coming from the baggage troop, they will definitely be shocked!  They probably wouldn't have thought that we still had the strength to launch a surprise attack. They would have thought that Hulao Pass had been broken and the main force of the Allied forces was advancing!

    In this case, do they still have the courage to resist?  When the news that Hao Meng's three armies were defeated and Lu Bu's own formation was damaged reached the Chinese army, and when the news that the main force of the Kwantung Allied Forces was about to arrive spread throughout the army, would the enemy's assault troops still have the courage to continue fighting?  They will definitely retreat, and our army will seize the opportunity and pursue it to a certain extent, and we can defeat Lu Bu's troops in one fell swoop!  "

    Originally, the captains of each team were still a little skeptical, but now they heard Cao Ang explain it in such detail, and they suddenly felt confident.  Everyone said in unison: "Don't worry, lord, we will fight hard to repay lord for his great kindness!"

    Cao Ang smiled slightly and said in a deep voice: "The soldiers are all fighting hard, so how can I just sit back and watch! This time I will personally participate in the fight and I must get the enemy general's head!"

    Everyone was shocked and wanted to dissuade him, but looking at Cao Ang's dark eyes, they couldn't even say a word.

    One of them was a servant of the Cao Mansion. He took half a step forward, bowed respectfully, and said in a deep voice: "General, I am honored to be able to witness the young master charging into the battle in person! Young Master, don't worry. Before the general dies in battle,  , we will never allow a thief to harm the young master!"

    Cao Ang said in a deep voice: "Old Zhou, I remember you. This time we will move forward hand in hand. Let's see who is the first to cut off Cheng Lian's battle flag!"

    Lao Zhou nodded happily. The rest of the team looked at it with envy. Someone said quickly: "Lord, I will cut down the battle flag for you!"

    Everyone expressed their opinions one after another. Cao Ang was overjoyed and said in a deep voice: "With this determination, who does Lu Bu mean to a seller seeking glory? Gentlemen, I, Cao Zixiu, am deeply honored to fight alongside you!"

    ¡­¡­

    Soon, another enemy charge was defeated due to the vigorous counterattack of Cao's archers and soldiers guarding the fortress.  Just as they were retreating dejectedly, hundreds of Cao's soldiers and horses suddenly rushed down from the wall along the slope paved by Lu Bu's army.

    Originally, the morale of Wei Xu's troops was not high, but when Cao Ying's troops concentrated their strength, they couldn't hold back and were defeated!  Seeing the fierce expressions and shining swords of Cao Ying's soldiers, Wei Xu's first reaction was to ride away on horseback!

    After Wei Xu's troops were defeated, Cao Jun immediately launched an attack on Cheng Lian's troops.  Cheng Lian personally went into battle to resist bravely, but the number of his troops was too small, and the morale of the troops was low. They were quickly driven away by Cao Ang and his army, and Cheng Lian's battle flag fell into the hands of Lao Zhou!

    Seeing that Wei Xu and Cheng Lian's troops were all defeated, Hao Meng immediately gathered his troops and retreated without waiting for Cao Ying to attack!  At this moment, a large fire flashed in the distance!  All the soldiers in Lu Bu's army couldn't help but jump up - how could the baggage troops be attacked? Could it be that Hulao Pass has been broken and the Kwantung Allied Forces have entered??Pursued?  !

    Thinking of this, Lu Bujun's morale became even lower.  Cao Ang saw the opportunity and immediately ordered a counterattack across the board.  Lu Bu was trapped in Cao's camp and had no time to return to command. There was no well-known general in the Chinese army. Without Lu Bu's command, the Chinese army quickly collapsed!  Immediately afterwards, the entire Bingzhou Army collapsed!
