Cao Cao reined in his horse and stopped, pointing to the woods on both sides with his hand, and said with a smile: "There are woods on both sides, and the middle is narrow, which is the easiest to set up an ambush. If he sets up a cavalry here, it doesn't need to be many, as long as more than a thousand fine cavalry are enough." .”

"More than a thousand cavalry came out from both sides and swarmed forward. Our army is pursued by soldiers behind and blocked in front. Our army is already in low morale. How can we be our opponent?"

"Not to mention the entire army was wiped out, at least seven to eight people were lost."

"so."

Before he finished speaking, he heard a burst of hearty laughter: "Cao Cao, don't be arrogant, Yue Fei has been ordered to wait here for a long time."

"My Lord once said that there are many smart people under Cao Mengde. Even if they encounter setbacks, they always think of ways to survive in defeat. And now Huang Zu of Jiangxia has surrendered to you a long time ago, so moving closer to Jiangling is naturally the best strategy."

"I was doubtful at first, but now it seems that my lord is much wiser than me!"

"Carry the Wei army and shoot arrows!"

"shoot!!"

"whoosh whoosh"

Countless arrows shot out like raindrops. The Beiwei army who had been ambushing in the woods did not take aim at all, and several rounds of arrows flew out.

Although I didn't take aim, it was so densely packed and surrounded by robes, how could I escape?

"Ahhhhh!!"

Continuous screams rang out, and more than a thousand people fell to the ground, either dead or injured.

"kill!!"

"Capture Cao Cao alive!!"

As the order was issued, six hundred Beiwei troops rushed out from both sides.

"kill!!"

Yue Fei held a spear and took the lead in attacking Cao's army.

The spear in his hand is as fast as lightning and moves like thunder.

The spear flashed a silver light in the air, and several Cao soldiers in front of them felt a silver light flash before their eyes, their throats went cold, and blood spurted out.

Then his vision went black and his body fell heavily to the ground.

Yue Fei is so brave that the Beiwei army behind him will naturally not hold back.

One by one, all the anger that had been waiting for more than half an hour was vented.

How could Cao Jun, who had been panicking for a long time, be able to stop him?

Just like Cao Cao's own analysis just now, there are chasing troops behind, obstacles in front, and the terrain is narrow, how can he stop them?

Seeing the soldiers fall to the ground one by one, there was nothing they could do to deal with these 600 people.

The Beiwei Army's combat effectiveness is super strong and their speed is very fast. They often change places before the encirclement is formed.

In just one cup of tea, more than two thousand people fell to the iron cavalry carrying the Wei army.

Even though Cao Cao screamed desperately, he still couldn't change the situation.

Behind, the cavalry led by Yuwen Chengdu and Zhao Yun caught up and attacked Yue Fei the moment he launched his surprise attack. Under attack from two sides, Cao Jun's 30,000 to 40,000 men were completely defeated.

Xiahou Dun, Cao Ren, and Cao Zhen's eyes were red, and their eyes were full of anger. They raised their weapons and shouted: "Let's go, let's fight a bloody path."

"I don't believe that Bei Weijun is so powerful and can't be killed?"

"go!"

"I don't want this life anymore!"

The three of them looked at each other and were about to rush forward. Xun You on the side stopped them directly: "Generals, don't be impulsive."

"Although our army has a numerical advantage, its morale has collapsed and it is no match for us."

"It is impossible to surround and kill the Beiwei army."

"There are five thousand cavalry in the rear and even countless Jingzhou soldiers. If we are surrounded by them, will we be able to escape?"

"You don't want your life, but what about the Prime Minister's life?"

"The world can be without anyone else, but it cannot be without the Prime Minister."

Xun Yu nodded slightly: "Yes, now is not the time to kill, but the time to break out."

Cao Ren calmed down first and breathed a long sigh of relief: "That's right."

"We can't be impulsive."

"We must lead the prime minister out of the siege."

"The three of us charge forward with our soldiers, fight our way out, and open the way to Jiangling City."

Xun Yu shook his head: "No!"

"If we go to Jiangling at this time, who knows if there will be an ambush?" "It's a distance of three to four hundred miles, and there are many dangerous places."

"If there are two more ambushes, how can we get to Jiangling alive?"

"What Yue Fei said just now is clear. Lin Fan is really good at predicting what's going to happen. He knows that we are unwilling to give up and will not give up the opportunity because of this rudeness. He gave up his escape from Fancheng and instead ambushed on the official road to Jiangling."

"This man's intelligence and bravery should not be underestimated."

Cao Cao thought of what he had just laughed at, and a flash of embarrassment flashed across his face.

I really want to say a few words, but I really don’t know how.

Cao Ren and others deliberately did not mention this matter, and directly changed the subject: "Mr. Wen Ruo, now is not the time to boost others' ambitions and destroy your own prestige."

"How do we break out of the encirclement now? Sir, please clarify."

Xun Yu pointed to the south: "Go back to Fancheng."

"Go back to Fancheng?"

"What if an ambush is also arranged there?"

"If we encounter an ambush on the water, how can we still be opponents?"

"Our people are not sailors at all."

"The combat effectiveness on the water is negligible!"

Xun Yu said calmly: "The most dangerous road may be the safest road."

"It may be dangerous to go south to Fancheng, but it's definitely not as dangerous as imagined."

"Don't forget that Lin Fan doesn't have any naval forces. He will never occupy Xiangyang for more than three days."

"The Xiangjiang River may be dangerous, but it is definitely not as dangerous as Jiangling."

Cao Cao finally couldn't help but speak again: "I agree with Wen Ruo's opinion."

"We have fought against these two forces, Yanyun Eighteen Cavalry and Beiwei Army, no less than three times. We should all know how strong their pursuit capabilities are."

"Even if we encounter an ambush on the water, if we are not good at it, how can they be good at it?"

"Isn't this easier than facing these gods of death?"

"Look at these two small armies. Tens of thousands of us were not in good formation and were slaughtered like pigs and dogs."

"Where do you think the way out is?"

Cao Ren, Xia Houyuan, and Cao Zhen sighed softly. Although they didn't want to admit it, they knew it was true.

"Prime Minister, it's just us."

"How could we"

"Even if we want to leave, how can we have enough ships?"

"Where to go?"

Cao Cao looked at Xun Yu: "Wen Ruo, now I really admire you."

"If it weren't for this way of life you left, I'm afraid we would have died here tonight."

"what happened?"

"Prime Minister, what do you mean?"

Xun Yu said: "It's very simple. Before the war started, I arranged in advance 300 small boats less than twenty miles away from here."

"The purpose is to have a glimmer of hope at a critical moment."

"Now it seems that everything was really right."

"It's always right to leave a way to survive."

Cao Ren, Xia Houyuan, and Cao Zhen's eyes flashed: "That's it!"

"Then let's break out to the north?"

Cao Cao nodded: "Send the order to the entire army to retreat northward!"

"Close to Xiangjiang!"

"Zixiao, Miaocai, if you two are separated, even if you fight to the last person, you can't disturb us from boarding the boat."
