After Bu Ji's Yellow Turban Army set up camp at Cang Ting, they would occasionally send scouts to Dong 'a County to check. However, Yang Rui's troops and Dong' a County's soldiers were all holed up in the city according to Cheng Yu's arrangements and did not reveal any of their strength. When the scouts saw that the four gates of Dong 'a County were closed, they thought that they were afraid of the Yellow Turban Army. After reporting the situation to Bu Ji, Bu Ji naturally did not pay much attention to it.
After a day, the Yellow Turban Army and the soldiers stationed on both sides of the river did not make any moves. After Left Lieutenant General Huangfu Song led his troops to set up camp at the west bank of the river, he did not make any moves. He did not even send a single soldier to cross the river to check. Bu Ji was naturally happy to maintain the status quo. He sent people to the area around Cang Ting to search for food and men to recover his strength.
Yang Rui could not help but feel puzzled by the actions of the two sides. On the other hand, Cheng Yu was very calm and did not make any moves. He even chose to ignore the Yellow Turban Army's rampage around Cang Ting to steal food and men.
"Now that Bu Ji has neglected his defenses to the east, why don't Sir Cheng take the opportunity to attack and catch Bu Ji off guard? You will definitely win! At that time, the Han army on the other side of the river will definitely respond. With the two armies working together, it will be easy to defeat Bu Ji's Yellow Turban Army! "
County Magistrate Chen was also anxious. In any case, he was the local official of Dong 'a County. Seeing Bu Ji's Yellow Turban Army plundering in his territory, he was naturally annoyed.
"Don't worry, County Magistrate. Left Lieutenant General Huangfu Song is an intelligent and courageous general. Yu Guang's actions must have been carefully planned. We will see the results in a day or two. If Cheng Yu's expectations are wrong. If General Huangfu Song does not make any moves tonight, Yu Guang also has a plan. Don't worry, County Magistrate Chen. "
Cheng Yu frowned slightly. In truth, he had also noticed the Yellow Turban Army's actions. He just needed the best opportunity. After all, the difference in military strength was too great. Acting rashly would cause a lot of losses.
Hearing Cheng Yu's words, County Magistrate Chen knew that the battle would probably not drag on past tonight. They also quieted down. Based on his understanding of Dong Ah County, County Magistrate Chen was very confident in Cheng Yu. Since Cheng Yu already had a plan, there should be no problem!
"Mr. Cheng, when do you plan to make your move tonight?"
"We only need to wait for the other side of the Ji River to make a move!
If General Huangfu's troops take the initiative to attack before the Shen hour, it is very likely that they will cross the Ji River from the north and attack Bu Ji. We can arrange cavalry to cooperate with surprise attack from the south toward Bu Ji's camp. At that time, Bu Ji's troops will be in chaos. Bu Ji's defeated troops will flee to the east, we can set up an ambush in advance in the southeast and northeast directions of Cang Ting. Raise the fire and make a ruckus, with bows and arrows as support, Bu Ji certainly won't dare to advance! When Bu Ji escaped to the front line of Dong Ah County, he was probably already exhausted. They could capture him in one fell swoop!
If Zuo Zhonglang General's troops have not made their move by yinshi, we can take the initiative to launch a surprise attack on Bu Ji's camp, lure the enemy out, and then fight! At that time, the Han Ting army on the other side of the Ji River would notice the strange movements on this side, and it is very likely that they would want to respond to the situation from afar. If General Huangfu is not in a hurry to set up an ambush on the two sides, there is no need to rush out, just wait for us to defend the city. With Zuo Zhonglang General's troops restraining him from the side, Bu Ji won't dare to launch a large-scale attack!
No matter what the situation is, Cheng Yu and General Blazing Sun will break into Bu Ji's army together. At that time, they will assess the situation and adjust according to the changes in the situation. County Magistrate Chen will defend Dong Ah City and wait for an opportunity to capture Bu Ji! County Magistrate Chen, General Blazing Sun, do you agree? "
Cheng Yu explained his plan, and Yang Rui and County Magistrate Chen both nodded repeatedly, agreeing with Cheng Yu's arrangements.
"Naturally, we will act according to Mister Cheng's plan!"
Yang Rui and County Magistrate Chen agreed to Cheng Yu's plan in unison. After agreeing on the steps and time of the night operation, Yang Rui and County Magistrate Chen each went to arrange for their troops to rest first and recover their energy for the night operation.
Not long after night fell, Yang Rui arranged for Li Dong and ten other beginner generals to lead two groups of eight hundred Fourth Grade archers and four hundred Third Grade infantrymen to lie in ambush in the southeast and northeast directions of Cang Ting. Yang Rui and Cheng Yu led the remaining five beginner generals and twelve hundred Fourth Grade riders out of the south gate, quietly circling a few dozen kilometers south of Cang Ting. County Magistrate Chen led all the soldiers of Dong Ah City to guard Dong Ah City and await the arrival of Bu Ji's defeated army.
"Kill!"
"Kill …"
Just as Cheng Yu expected, just after midnight, flames rose to the north of Cang Ting, and battle cries shook the sky! Left Lieutenant General Huangfu Song had indeed arranged for most of the soldiers to cross the river from the north of Cang Ting, a distance of over a hundred kilometers!
Bu Ji didn't have many soldiers defending the north of Cang Ting in the first place. They were instantly thrown into chaos by Huangfu Song's troops. How could they possibly stop the Han Ting soldiers crossing the river?! When Bu Ji heard this, he hastily mobilized the soldiers defending the east of Cang Ting and personally led them north to plug the gap!
Before Bu Ji could see where the north was attacked, a group of Han Ting cavalry had broken into his camp from the south of Cang Ting. They easily cut down large groups of Yellow Turban soldiers like they were chopping vegetables, catching Bu Ji's troops off guard once again! In comparison, the Han Ting cavalry to the south was much more ferocious!
The group to the south of Cang Ting was led by Yang Rui and Cheng Yu, two hundred and twelve Fourth Grade riders! After Huangfu Song's troops launched their attack, Yang Rui and Cheng Yu also responded and charged out! With the help of Cheng Yu's' Battle of the Mind ', Yang Rui and his junior generals and Fourth Grade riders all doubled in strength. On the other hand, the Yellow Turban soldiers were greatly suppressed by Cheng Yu's skill. With one side increasing and one side decreasing, the battle was completely one-sided!
"Kill!"
"Kill …"
Both the north and south of Cang Ting were under attack, and Bu Ji could be said to be under attack from both sides. The camp was already in chaos, and the Yellow Turban soldiers were running around randomly. No one knew which side they were going to defend! At this moment, the west of Cang Ting, where Bu Ji had originally deployed a large number of troops, was also filled with people. Huangfu Song's troops took advantage of the fact that Bu Ji had deployed a large number of defensive forces to attack!
Three sides joined forces. The Yellow Turban camp was even more chaotic. Defeat was only a matter of time! While Bu Ji himself was leading his troops to the north of Cang Ting, by the shore of Cang Ting's river. The soldiers of the Han Court had already spread out. The one at the front was seven feet tall and was dressed in black armor. He was extremely well-built and was riding on a tall horse. How could any of the Yellow Turban soldiers be a match for him?!
Seeing this person's skill, Bu Ji felt a little unconfident! After the previous few battles, Bu Ji had already recognized this person. It was the Great Han Spirit Emperor's personally appointed cavalry captain, Cao Cao! It was rumored that Peng Tuo was killed by Cao Cao in one move. It was obvious how strong Cao Cao was!
Of course, Bu Ji had also heard of this, and he admitted that he was not as strong as Peng Tuo! Therefore, every time he saw Cao Cao, he would feel a little apprehensive. Now that he saw this person again in the midst of chaos, Bu Ji had the urge to turn around and leave!
However, he was the commander of this Yellow Turban army. If he left, this battle would be lost without a doubt! Therefore, Bu Ji could only brace himself and not retreat. However, he only ordered more soldiers to charge at Cao Cao. He tried to use numbers to bury him! As for Bu Ji himself, he hid far away. While fighting, he vigilantly maintained a distance from Cao Cao.
Since he was afraid before the battle, Bu Ji's efforts to stop him were not very effective! When Bu Ji learned that a large number of Han Court troops were charging over from the western front, he knew that it would be difficult to resist and decided to escape!
"Ha!"
After calculating the situation, Bu Ji prepared to retreat. However, he saw that Cao Cao had revealed an opening while fighting a large group of Yellow Turban soldiers alone. Therefore, Bu Ji stabbed his spear!
Bu Ji's stab was very fierce, and the timing was also very accurate. He wanted to get rid of Cao Cao before he left! However, when the spear was two feet away from Cao Cao, Bu Ji felt as if the spear had stabbed into a pile of cotton. Every inch of progress took a lot of effort!
What kind of skill was this?! Bu Ji knew that it would be difficult for this spear to be effective. Just as he reacted and was about to retreat … He felt the spear become heavy, and Cao Cao had already grabbed the spear shaft with his bare hands. At the same time, a green rainbow shot towards Bu Ji!
"Uh …"
Bu Ji only had time to let go of the long spear in his hand and slightly tilted his body. That green rainbow had already whipped onto his back like a waterfall! Bu Ji groaned in pain and almost fell off his horse. He felt a burning sensation on his back from top to bottom, as if it had been split into two! However, Bu Ji did not have the time to care about the pain on his skin. He secretly rejoiced that he had saved his life. At the same time, he clamped his legs on the horse's abdomen and leaped several feet away …
"Bu Ji is dead! Hurry up and descend! "
Looking at Bu Ji's figure galloping away on horseback, Cao Cao frowned slightly. His sword had only missed by a hair's breadth!
"Bu Ji is dead! Hurry up and descend! "
Although Bu Ji had run away, it did not affect the effect of Cao Cao's shout! Perhaps it was a tacit understanding formed over a long period of time, but when Cao Cao shouted, his soldiers also shouted loudly! At first, the surrounding Yellow Turban Soldiers still understood the situation. However, after the shouts, the Yellow Turban Soldiers in the distance did not understand the situation!
The situation in the Yellow Turban Camp was already very difficult. Now that Cao Cao's troops had launched a psychological attack, many of the Yellow Turban Soldiers in the camp had already begun to flee! The power of an example was immense. The moment someone took the lead, this trend of fleeing quickly engulfed the entire Yellow Turban Camp!
"Kill!"
"Kill …"
The Yellow Turban Soldiers were utterly defeated, and the Han Court's soldiers were filled with killing intent. A one-sided pursuit immediately began!
As expected, it was as Cheng Yu had predicted. After Bu Ji was injured and abandoned his spear, he ran towards the east, the only place where the Han Court's army had not appeared. He only brought along 200 personal guards! However, he did not expect that just after Bu Ji had fled for 20-30 li, another group of Han Court's soldiers would appear from the north and south. Torches lit up the sky, and their momentum shook the heavens! How could Bu Ji have the strength or courage to continue fighting? He could only urge his personal guards to increase the speed of their horses and escape towards the east!
Not long later, Bu Ji had galloped tens of li away. The Han Court's soldiers continued to chase after him, and in the end, a large group of cavalry soldiers appeared behind him, slowly closing the distance between them and Bu Ji!
When he reached the vicinity of Dong Ah City, Bu Ji realized that there was a large group of Han Court's soldiers blocking his path. After running for such a long time, he had actually plunged into a large pocket!
"Bu Ji, why are you still not giving up?!"
