The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms

Weiguo County and Puyang County correspond diagonally.

Weiguo County is in the northwest of the north bank of the Yellow River, and Puyang County is in the southeast of the south bank of the Yellow River.

But they said that after Pan Zhang led his troops out of Puyang County, they first went to the south bank of the Yellow River and took out the boat that Tian's family had hidden on the bank.

Then, under the leadership of the soldiers who were familiar with the situation on both sides of the Yellow River, they traveled eastward along the south bank of the Yellow River, and began to cross the river at the pre-determined section of the river where it was easy to cross the river and there was no crossing on the other side.

Although Cao Cao ordered Cao Ren to strictly guard the river section, Cao Ren knew that it was a big deal, and he was very concerned about it, and he urged the soldiers strictly. Dongjun, going west to Jizhou, the morale is not high, the army is in chaos; secondly, Pan Zhang marched very fast, defeated Puyang, and the guards and soldiers who escaped from Puyang have not been able to escape to the other side of the Yellow River to tell Cao Ren, Cao Ren doesn't know about this yet. Thirdly, it's dawn again, when people's spirits are the most sleepy, and it's still raining and snowing. Zhang's crossing the river was silent and smooth.

The Cao army on the opposite side, including the cavalry squad patrolling the north bank, didn't notice it at all.

In this way, Pan Zhang's department crossed the river.

After crossing the river, the sky was slightly bright, and in the rain and snow, and in the dawn, Pan Zhang called a scout and asked the location of Cao Ren's barracks, and ordered the soldiers of the whole army: "Follow me, and destroy Cao Ren first!"

One of the officers under Pan Zhang's tent said, "Cao Ren, even if Cao Ren's troops are few, there are probably one or two thousand men, and our troops only have two thousand. If we go to fight Cao Ren now, I'm afraid it is not appropriate to win a quick victory. , Once Weiguo County finds out, then Cao Cao may abandon the county and flee, why not go to besiege Weiguo County now? Weiguo County also has our internal officers, so it shouldn't be difficult to conquer this county."

Pan Zhang said: "It's already dawn, and Cao Ren will definitely know about the news that our army has crossed the river and Puyang has been lost. If we go to Weiguo now, Cao Ren will definitely chase after our troops. In this way, even if My department went to Weiguo County, all fronts and backs

Even if there is an enemy, even if there is an internal response, attacking a city will not be easy. The immediate strategy should be to defeat Cao Ren first, and then attack and defend the country!

"As for Cao Ren's troops, he may have one or two thousand troops, but his troops are now scattered at various ferry crossings on the north bank of the river. Cao Ren's own garrison must have few troops and horses in his battalion, and our army can break them in one go.

"As long as Cao Ren is captured alive, then the remaining enemy troops scattered at the ferry on the north bank of the river, no matter how many, are not a concern."

When the officers under his tent heard it, they all agreed, and they stopped talking.

Cao Ren's barracks was several miles west of where Pan Zhang and others crossed the river.

Cao Ren then led his troops along the north bank of the Yellow River and headed for Cao Ren's barracks.

At this time, Cao Ren didn't know the news that Pan Zhang's group had successfully crossed the river.

Cao Rennai didn't know until the scouts from outside the camp rushed back to the camp to report.

After hearing the news, Cao Ren was shocked.

"But how...?" Cao Ren said, "How did Pan Zhang cross the river?"

But now is not the time to think about it. Cao Ren hurriedly beat the drums and gathered the soldiers and horses in the camp to prepare for the camp. Pan Zhang really made a surprise attack. Boycott outside the camp.

On the one hand, the camp was not completed, and on the other hand, he came prepared.

A battle of the camp, the victory or defeat is self-evident.

Cao Ren, under the protection of one or twenty personal guards, desperately broke out of the encirclement and fled in the direction of Wei.

——There were about a thousand soldiers in Cao Ren’s camp. After the camp was broken, the battlefield was quite chaotic. There were Cao’s camp soldiers fleeing and defeating everywhere, and Cao Ren’s escape would definitely not carry his flag again. The scale was not large, and it was dark, so Pan Zhang did not notice it for a while.

When all the divisions attacking the camp came to report the results, they knew that Cao Ren had not been captured.

Cao Ren had nowhere else to go, he only had Wei Guo now to escape.

Pan Zhang immediately ordered that the whole army set off immediately and attacked Wei.

The Lihu County that went out yesterday morning has been marching for more than 100 miles since the battle.

After crossing a Yellow River and fighting two battles, the soldiers were quite tired.

An officer under Pan Zhang's tent said, "Cao Ren has already escaped, so he rushed to report to Cao Cao. Cao Cao knew about the fall of Puyang and the ferry on the north bank of the river, and he would definitely strengthen his guard. There are only 2,000 people in our army~www.wuxiaspot. com~ Even if it is under the Weiguo city, it will inevitably be disadvantageous for our troops to attack the city. It is better to rest here for the time being, wait for General Le's troops to arrive, and then join forces to attack, it seems more appropriate."

Pan Zhang said: "Cao's army has no will to fight, but now it is suddenly reported that Puyang has fallen and Hedu has fallen, and our army is approaching. It is expected that the morale of the soldiers in the city will be low and they will never stand firm. Although the soldiers of our army are relatively tired, However, our morale is high, and at this time, we rushed to attack the Weiguo, and it was easy to spit at the palm of your hand!"

But this Pan Zhang was indeed a fierce general, and he just let the soldiers rest for a quarter of an hour, then set off, continued to attack, and killed the Wei Kingdom.

This place is only more than 50 miles away from Weiguo County.

In order to prevent Cao Cao from escaping, Pan Zhang gathered the captured warhorses and the warhorses of the headquarters together and obtained more than 300 horses. He personally selected more than 300 elite warriors and personally led the charge. Around noon, we arrived at the south of Weiguo City.

After Cao Ren was defeated, as expected by Pan Zhang, he fled to Weiguo County.

At this time, not long after he arrived in the county, he reported to Cao Cao the military report of Pan Zhang's army crossing the river.

Cao Cao was very shocked. He asked Cao Ren: "How many enemies are coming? Is it only Pan Zhang's or Le Jin's?"

Cao Ren's camp was captured too quickly, and his vision was unclear at the time. After the camp was broken, Cao Ren fled north in a hurry. He really didn't know how many people attacked his camp. , I heard the sound of shouting and killing everywhere outside, the number of thieves is probably quite large."

Cao Cao hurriedly summoned Cheng Li and others, and while ordering Cao Chun to guard the city, he began to deploy a plan to evacuate from the city.

The entire temporary county house was a mess, with people coming in and out, and it was a mess.

Just as Cheng Li and others arrived one after another and entered the hall, when Cao Cao was discussing with them, the guards outside came to report that it was Li Xiang who asked to see him.
