Imperial Power Of Han Dynasty

Chapter 894: Defensive Counterattack

After Cao Cao refused Cao Chun's request, he looked at the opposite side and frowned.

Although Xia Houyuan led the Cao Jun as the vanguard to constantly attack the Yanzhou Army's army, but the Yanzhou Army under the control of the ban was like an iron bucket, and it was impossible to attack it alive or dead.

The Yanzhou Army was very calm under the command of the ban, divided into battle formations, relying on each other. Even if Cao Jun broke a layer of battle formation with his sharp aura, the retreating Yanzhou army's military spirit was not distracted. Under the command of the ban, it regrouped into a new battle formation and turned into a copper wall and iron wall.

"People say that Liu Yuqing has four generals under his command." Cao Cao sighed: "Xiliang Ma Chao, the iron cavalry is omnipotent; the river swayed slowly, and it was difficult to resist the long drive; the river opened his jaw with ingenuity, not constrained by the terrain; and this Yu Jin is the most adept at defending, and he has been Liu Yuqing's shield since he defeated the Yellow Turban thieves, and it is true."

Among the five great generals of Cao Wei, most were good at offensive warfare. For example, when Zhang Liao and Sun Quan were besieging Xiaoyaojin, Zhang Liao instead of defending Hefei, instead led eight thousand soldiers in the battle. As a result, he almost captured Sun Quan and forced a defensive battle. Fought into an offensive battle.

Xu Huang, Le Jin, Zhang Jai and others were all Jiangling who tended to attack. Xu Huang led his troops to advance in the battle of Xiangfan and broke through Guan Yu's ten antlers. Le Jin has always been known for his bravery first, and Zhang Jai is mostly Offense, but less defense.

Yu Jin's style is completely different from the four of them, and he has always been known for his good defensiveness. During the Battle of Guandu, Liu Bei appeared behind Cao's army. Cao Cao hurriedly led his troops to counter the rebellion in person, leaving Guandu to defend Yuan Shao.

Moreover, it turns out that Cao Cao ordered Yu Jin to lead the seven armies to attack Guan Yu and rescue Cao Ren. As a result, the entire army defeated by Guan Yu was wiped out.

Although the offense was unfavorable, the scene in front of him proved that Yu ban was indeed a good defense.

"Offensive, offensive, rewards for those who break into the enemy line!"

Xia Houyuan yelled out loudly, while at the same time he led troops to assault. Xiahou Yuangui is a general of the Cao Wei clan and a general in the west of Zhenxi. At this moment, he is personally leading an assault. Seeing this, Cao Jun's morale is naturally boosted, and they attacked forward, but the battle formation of Yanzhou Army is stacked on top of each other. , Just like the same wall, standing still.

"Miaocai is brave, but it is too reckless. How can you rely on courage when you are cowardly and weak?" Cao Cao frowned when he saw Xia Houyuan personally lead his troops to burst into battle.

"Sun Li, you led two thousand sharp pawns behind the battle. After a while, Ben will order the front line to open a hole. You will immediately lead your troops to counterattack. You must defeat Cao Jun's spirit, understand?" Yu Jin ordered Sun Li.

Sun Li was extremely guilty of losing Taishan County, and after hearing Yu Jin's order, he naturally agreed. Immediately led two thousand sharp soldiers to hide in the formation, motionless.

"According to the order, the front army retreated to the left and right, made an opening, and let Cao Jun in." Yu Jin ordered.

The Chinese flag soldiers naturally waved their battle flags when they heard this. Although the former commander saw Yu Jin's order, although he was a little strange, he did not question Yu Jin's order, but retreated left and right.

Seeing the enemy suddenly let go, Xia Houyuan, who had worked hard for a long time, couldn't help being overjoyed: "Great, the whole army listened to the order and attacked the enemy!"

It has been a long time since the 20,000 Cao army has violently attacked the forbidden army, but they have been unable to attack from beginning to end. They have accumulated a lot of anger. At this moment, seeing the enemy army let go of a hole, naturally it was overjoyed, and they roared forward and rushed forward .

"Kill!"

Cao Cao in the distance frowned, "Not good."

"The prime minister, why is it bad?" Cao Xiu frowned.

"Wenlie, look."

Cao Cao pointed to the formation facing the ban, and pointed out: "Although the front army retreated to the left and right, it was not a collapse, but an orderly retreat. Obviously, the ban was premeditated."

"Prime Minister, Tiger Leopard Cavalry has endured for a long time, how about the attack?" Cao Xiu couldn't wait.

"Well... order the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry to prepare, and when you see the actual order later, prepare to attack." Cao Cao nodded slowly.

At this time, Xia Houyuan had already led Cao Jun’s forward and entered the Yanzhou Army formation "like a broken bamboo" with high morale.

"Haha, Xiahouyuan made a plan, everyone will kill with me and repel the enemy!"

At this moment, Sun Li suddenly burst into laughter. With a wave of his arm, the two thousand sharp soldiers shot out.

"Kill!"

These two thousand sharp pawns had been hidden in the Chinese army. At this moment, they suddenly swept out of the army. They were really replenishing their energy, and a burst of vigor was suddenly revealed.

The front-line formation formed by two thousand sharp soldiers was like a sharp knife flying into the forward of Cao Jun, and it was easy to make a hole in Cao Jun.

This group of Cao soldiers had already attacked the Yanzhou army for a long time. In fact, their strength had already been exhausted. Now they suddenly met Sun Li, who led the Yanzhou soldiers to kill. Of course, the momentum of Cao Jun's offensive was defeated in one fell swoop. Just like the battle of Qilu Changshao, the Qi army's fierce attack consumed its spirit, and the result was defeated by the weak Lu army.

"Damn it, don't retreat, the enemy army is only two thousand people, our army is ten times as many as the enemy army, what are you afraid of? Kill!"

Xia Houyuan was furious, he was already red eyes, and led more than 10,000 Cao Jun to launch a fierce attack on the enemy.

However, despite the large number of Cao's army, the spirit was not enough. Under the impact of the two thousand elite soldiers of the Central Army, they began to retreat steadily, and the entire army seemed to be pierced by the enemy in one fell swoop, and there was a tendency to split in two.

Upon seeing this, Yu Jin laughed and turned to Xu Shu and said, "Military officer, this Xia Houyuan is really brave and innocent. He was defeated by our army so quickly, hahaha."

Xu Shu nodded and smiled: "General, although Xiahouyuan's army is strong now, but the momentum has been defeated by our army, you can order the Chinese army to press on, and the front and rear armies will encircle the army to block Xiahouyuan's army and besiege it."

"Xiahouyuan fell into the siege of our army. Cao Cao must send an army to rescue. Our army can send a partial division to block the invasion of Cao army, and then eliminate Xiahouyuan's tribe as soon as possible!"

Xu Shu's eyes revealed brightly and said: "Xia Houyuan is a general of Cao Cao's clan. He has a unique position and is proficient in strategy. If he can capture Xia Houyuan in one fell swoop, then the Cao army will be weak! Even if he can't capture Xia Houyuan, as long as he can wipe out most of the Cao army, The strategic goal of this battle has also been achieved, and Cao Jun’s momentum has defeated our army!

Yu Jin nodded and solemnly said: "The military teacher said well!"

"According to my order, the Chinese army stepped forward to assault the enemy! The left and right armies re-enclose Xiahouyuan and order the 5,000 sergeants of the former army to line up to resist Cao!
