Chapter 407: The War of Merging States Begins

After a rain of arrows, seeing that the three people had not been killed, Cao Chun cursed secretly, and led the army to rush in the direction of the mountain at the end of the village.

Seeing this, Yan Sansan and the three abandoned the pursuit and began to treat the surviving people.

It didn't take long for several trapped camps to arrive one after another, and after a brief inquiry, they launched a pursuit.

The groups of Yanyun Eighteen Cavalry who arrived stayed in the village and settled the soldiers and civilians.

After some treatment and inventory, more than 100 villagers were killed and injured, and almost all of them had relatives who died tragically.

Under the mask, Yan Ba was expressionless, sorting out the corpses one by one.

Originally, with an extremely excited heart, I was ready to relieve my longing for my family, thinking that they would suffer this catastrophe.

Yan Ba regretted in his heart, he didn't propose to come to Li Village if he knew it, maybe Cao Jun stayed for a few days, and then retreated.

Yan Da communicated with Yan San, knowing the ins and outs, and he was also embarrassed in his heart.

Just when the atmosphere was dull, the sixty-year-old village chief, accompanied by a young man, came to the leader Yan Da and said respectfully:

"The old man is the head of this village, and today thanks to the generals, otherwise Li Village will be a catastrophe."

Yan Da politely replied: "The village chief doesn't need to be polite, those who join the army are just to calm the people and eliminate violence and resist foreign enemies." ”

The village chief nodded and said: "What the general said is reasonable, but the enemy is in front, and we can't make trouble for the general, so let me wait for myself to get it, the general will rest for one night, and quickly chase and kill those enemy troops, so as not to harm others again." ”

Yan Da nodded and said, "The village chief is reasonable, but there is one person, let him stay and help." ”

"Huh?" The village chief asked suspiciously, "Who does the general want to leave to help?" ”

Yan Da pointed to Yan Ba and said, "That's the person." ”

The village chief glanced at it and said thoughtfully: "Okay, thank you to the general." ”

The two exchanged a few polite words, and the village chief walked towards Yan Ba, his eyes kept looking.

Seeing this, Yan Da shook his head helplessly and summoned his subordinates to rest outside the village.

As the villagers gradually thinned out, the village chief said to Yan Ba, who knelt down to worship the corpses one by one: "General, don't worship, they know it, and they will definitely be very pleased." ”

Hearing this, Yan Ba already knew that the village chief recognized him, but he couldn't admit it, so he could only continue to bow silently.

Seeing that Yan Ba was like this, as the head of a village, how could he not understand, so he chattered to the side and talked about the changes over the years.

"There are also people in our village who are under the command of Liaodong Hou, he is our pride, and the children in the village all regard him as ......."

……

The sky was slightly bright, and Yan Ba's figure appeared in front of everyone, and it seemed that his mood had recovered a lot.

Seeing this, Yan Da didn't ask, because he knew that none of them would reveal the secret of Yan Yun's eighteen horses.

The people had arrived, and Yan Da did not stay much, so he immediately gathered his men and began to launch a pursuit, never letting Cao Jun hide again.

When Cao Chun escaped from the village, he encountered the trapped camp that came from the encirclement, and immediately ordered a frontal battle.

I thought that it would be easy to defeat the trapped camp, but I think they are also a group of well-equipped elites.

The camp cooperates tacitly, the division of labor is clear, and there is a degree of advance and retreat, as if everything is under control.

The tiger and leopard riders, who had been fighting fiercely for a long time, could not bargain at all against the trapped camp, but suffered heavy casualties.

There was an obstacle to the enemy in front and a chasing soldier in the rear, Cao Chun made a quick decision, gathered troops to break through desperately, and finally reluctantly took dozens of people and fled to the mountains and forests.

But even so, he didn't get rid of the spies who were trapped in the camp, and his whereabouts were clearly grasped all the way.

Defeating most of Cao Chun's troops, the pursuing trapping camp did not immediately besiege them, but prepared to wait for Cao's troops and horses to gather and clear them in one fell swoop.

After all, Cao Jun is scattered all over the place, and it is also troublesome to search, so it is better to put a long line of fishing.

Here, Cao Chun was killed and fled in all directions, and Cao Cao had already led a large army to the border of Bingzhou.

Upon learning the news, Gao Shun did not defend the city, but personally ordered the army to stop the war outside the state.

Dazhai chose the main road to build, and Gao Shun waited for the arrival of Cao Jun.

This time, there were only 15,000 soldiers and horses in Gao Shun, and there were only 2,000 soldiers in the camp, and the rest were all in the territory, besieging and killing tigers and leopards.

The soldiers and horses do not have an advantage, and Gao Shun does not intend to take the initiative to attack, although the state has slowly recovered after the last catastrophe, but it is still just improving, in case of defeat, I am afraid that the previous efforts will be in vain.

Cao Cao learned that Gao Shun had sent the army to the main road to block it, and immediately ordered the army to speed up, for fear that Gao Shun would suddenly retreat.

After all, in a diplomatic war, it is much better than attacking a city with human lives.

Cao Jun traveled all the way, arrived in one day, and camped ten miles away from Gaoshun Dazhai.

After a day of hurrying, Cao Cao did not rush to attack, but ordered to rest, and personally led his subordinates and others to check the deployment of Gaoshun Dazhai.

Standing on the hillside, Cao Cao fixed his eyes and took a closer look, with a slight worry in his heart, and said slowly: "This Gao Shun can be reused by Li Huiyi, it seems that he is not a wasted person." ”

Xun Yu agreed on the side: "Yes, this village is down the road, hanging on both sides, guarding both sides, it can be said that a lot of troops are saved, if the village is not out, I am afraid that it will take some time." ”

Cheng Yu looked at it carefully for a while and said: "Lord, this place is quite close to Gaoshun Dazhai, presumably he has learned the news, so he should go back to the camp first and then discuss." ”

Cao Cao smiled and said: "Haha, Zhongde is too worried, if Gao Shun really comes out, Ben Hou will be even more relieved." ”

Cheng Yu was puzzled and asked, "Why did the lord say this?" ”

Cao Cao explained: "If Gao Shun comes out, it shows that he can't calm down, and when the time comes, even if this big village is good, it is also an ornament." ”

Pretending to be slapped in the face, Cao Cao's words just fell, only to see the gate of the village below wide open, and a general led thousands of cavalry troops to rush over.

Seeing this scene, Cheng Yu hurriedly said: "The lord retreats quickly, and the enemy general has already killed." ”

Cao Cao waved his hand expressionlessly: "Wait, go and ask who is coming?" ”

Hearing Cao Cao's words, everyone was puzzled, but there was still a general who went to shout.

"Who is coming, can you know the name?"

The person who led the army to kill was none other than Gao Shun.

Hearing the shouting, Gao Shun didn't pay attention, but continued to rush forward.

Seeing this scene, Cao Cao's subordinates hurriedly held Cao Cao and wanted to retreat.

But Na wanted Gao Shun to rush to a hundred meters away from the hillside, so he stopped his horse.

Regardless of whether Cao Cao saw it or not, Gao Shun clasped his fists and saluted, and shouted loudly: "Gao Shun, the general of the town army, has seen Cao Houye!" ”

Cao Cao, who was being held up, heard the shouting, and immediately broke free, and glanced at everyone under his command with angry eyes.

Returning to the mountain, Cao Cao smiled and said: "Dare to ask General Gao, can you get the edict of Your Majesty?" ”

Gao Shun replied to the question: "Gao was ordered by my lord to guard and merge the state, why didn't Cao Houye come uninvited?" ”

Cao Cao smiled and said: "Edict to suppress thieves, why come uninvited?" ”

Gao Shun shouted back: "At the beginning, Bingzhou was trampled by the Huns' iron cavalry, but there was an edict to eliminate the thief?" ”

Cao Cao said: "Your Majesty was in the hands of traitors at that time, and he was powerless if he had the heart, and now he is back in power, and he will clear all the people in the world who are not subservient." ”

Gao Shun said: "In this case, I don't know if my lord can be disobedient?" ”
