Despite the contrast, Cao Cao was not pretending to be calm. If they chose to retreat at this time, the alliance's forces would probably collapse, which would only make the situation worse.
"Brother Benchu, the loss of our soldiers is unavoidable. It shouldn't be a problem for us to escape unscathed. Brother Benchu only needs to do this and this … All the soldiers will be under Brother Benchu's command …"
After a moment of silence, Cao Cao finally spoke to Yuan Shao.
Cao Cao and Yuan Shao whispered for a while. Their words seemed to be quite reasonable. Yuan Shao nodded, but the serious expression on his face did not change at all.
The reason was naturally that Cao Cao had only arranged an escape route, and at the same time, he had to take a considerable risk. However, he could not reverse the situation. For a moment, Yuan Shao's victory had turned into defeat, and he still could not accept it.
"Pass down my order. All troops continue to block the attacking troops of the King of Donghai with all their strength. Whoever kills a soldier of the King of Donghai will be rewarded with 10 gold coins each time.
At this critical moment, the troops must not slack off. I will temporarily form a law enforcement team. Whoever is found slacking off will be immediately killed on the spot! "
After thinking for a while, Yuan Shao sighed softly and said to the messenger.
In the end, Yuan Shao still adopted Cao Cao's suggestion. First, create a chaotic situation, and then fish in troubled waters and take advantage of the chaos to escape. As for how many troops would be lost, it was not something he could care about at this time.
Moreover, Cao Cao's escape plan was also somewhat similar. They only cared about escaping at all costs. In the end, the troops of the various vassals would have to flee separately and run for their lives.
The reason Yuan Shao agreed was only because at this time, he also felt a trace of pressure from the situation.
Of course, Yuan Shao also intended to wait and see. If the alliance could resist the attack of Qingyan Xu's troops and eventually defend the camp, that would be the best result.
At that time, Yuan Shao naturally did not need to adopt Cao Cao's suggestion to flee separately. Instead, he would further persist in delaying the troops of the King of Donghai until he found a way to achieve the final victory.
In other words, at this time, Yuan Shao still held a trace of hope in his heart. In the case of the same content as Cao Cao's suggestion, he still held his breath and wanted to see how the King of Donghai could defeat the armies of the various vassals.
"Mende, why don't you come out with me and kill for a while. Let's see who dares to start a fight near my main tent.. Mende, I presume you haven't fought on the battlefield for a long time?"
Yuan Shao frowned when he heard the sound of fighting not far outside the tent. He couldn't help but say to Cao Cao. Yuan Shao himself had already pulled out his sword and turned in the direction of the tent's entrance.
Yuan Shao's attitude had already explained everything. He had the intention to force Cao Cao to go with him and did not give Cao Cao much room to refuse.
"Since Brother Benchu has proposed so, I, Cao Cao, will naturally accompany you. Speaking of which, I really haven't moved my muscles and bones for a long time. I don't know if I can still fight …"
Cao Cao looked at Yuan Shao up and down meaningfully, and then said without objection.
In fact, Cao Cao's real thoughts were somewhat contemptuous of Yuan Shao's approach. The situation was already so hopeless, but Yuan Shao, this old man, still held on to hope and hope.
"Kill!"
"Roar! Roar! Roar! "
"Kill …"
“.....”
Not far from the main tent, two women of different heights were hiding in the midst of a group of butterfly swordsmen and reborn samurai. They were constantly dealing damage to the surrounding soldiers. The two women were Huang Wudie and Mogami Yoshihime.
At this time, Zhang Xiu had already fallen into a bitter battle. He had underestimated the agility and flexibility of the butterfly swordsmen, as well as the reborn samurai's sturdiness and undying characteristics. Although there were many butterfly swordsmen and reborn samurai corpses lying around Zhang Xiu, compared to the tens of thousands of soldiers, the two types of soldiers did not lose too much.
"Hah!"
"Kill!"
“.....”
Yuan Shao and Cao Cao did not hesitate when they saw the situation. After a shout, they both charged into the midst of the butterfly swordsmen and reborn samurai. The two's personal guards also charged into the battle. The situation immediately became tense and slowly became unfavorable for Huang Wudie and Mogami Yoshihime.
Originally, Huang Wudie and Mogami Yohime were at the center of the camp, and it was easy to imagine how much pressure they were under.
Huang Wudie was originally a calm person. Yang Rui valued her and Mogami Yoshihime's ability to lead troops. However, seeing the butterfly swordsmen being attacked by Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and their personal guards, Mogami Yoshihime saw through it and grabbed Huang Wudie's back.
Mogami Yoshihime was known as the brave and intelligent Yoshihime. At the same time, her reborn samurai had a different origin from the butterfly swordsmen. Thus, she maintained a calm attitude.
"I am the King of the East Sea, Blazing Sun. I am here. Why don't you surrender?"
At this moment, a loud roar came from the icy surface of the Yellow River to the south. Even in the background of the noisy battlefield, it was still particularly shocking.
Huang Wudie, who was blocked by Mogami Yoshihime, also heard this roar. She calmed down a lot and didn't insist on attacking Yuan Shao and Cao Cao. Instead, she continued to kill the alliance members around her.
Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, who were in the midst of killing each other, paused their movements at the same time. After exchanging glances, their movements slowed down slightly.
Originally, the main tent of Yuan Shaohui's alliance was set up not far from the icy surface of the Yellow River so that they could better grasp the situation of attacking the icy sand walls. At this time, it was extremely normal that Yang Rui's explosive shout could be heard around the main tent.
What's more, Yang Rui had mixed in his inner strength when he shouted, so as to better intimidate Yuan Shao's alliance master. This made the penetrative power of his shout even stronger, and the distance it traveled was also further.
"Neigh neigh neigh …"
"Kill …"
“.....”
Not only Yang Rui's army, the other two armies were also getting closer and closer. Even though Yuan Shao's army camp was quite far from the east and west, it was still possible to hear some of the fighting near Yuan Shao's main tent.
"Report! The General of the East, An Teng, is leading his cavalry to the northwest. They seem to have ulterior motives. My lord, please investigate. "
At this moment, a messenger of Yuan Shao's army reported to Yuan Shao.
