If the reinforcements stopped and returned to pursue Huo Qubing's light cavalry, Zhao Yun, who was in front, would turn around and lead many cavalry to attack fiercely.

If they follow Zhao Yun all the way, the light cavalry will chase the reinforcements and continue to harass the harvest with bows and arrows...

Such a rogue style of play, that reinforcement general has never seen before.He had heard that there was a light cavalry unit under Liu Rui's tent that was good at bowing horses, but he didn't expect that he would be lucky enough to encounter it.

That's how it was. Originally, the [-] reinforcements still wanted to hunt down Zhao Yunhuo Qubing with confidence, but after the troops were constantly being worn away, they could only ignore them and flee all the way, wanting to escape into Cao's camp as soon as possible.

Just how could Zhao Yun and Huo Qubing make them wishful?

The [-] reinforcements, just like Yuan Shu chasing Ma Teng at the beginning, relied on the blood of human life to pave the way, and fled to the Cao army camp in embarrassment.

By this time, more than half of the [-] reinforcements had been killed or wounded, and only the remaining [-] troops still maintained their fighting power.

And after the news reached Cao Cao's ears, he saw that Cao Cao's condition that had improved, instantly had a tendency to aggravate. , , .

361: Xuzhou soldiers arrive

Speaking of which, the casualties of Huo Qubing and Zhao Yun were almost negligible. After intercepting Cao Cao's reinforcements, the two rushed back to the camp overnight.

These days, they were hiding behind enemy lines, sleeping in the open air, and with the weather getting colder, many soldiers began to be overwhelmed, and in desperation, they had to return to the main camp.

"My lord, more than [-] Cao's reinforcements were eliminated in this battle. In addition, Cao Cao's army was injured and lost his combat power, so that Cao Cao can receive [-] troops, which is already very good." Guo Jia looked at Huo Qubing and Zhao Yun's battle report, Happy Road.

Liu Rui also laughed and praised: "Thanks to Fengxiao's clever trick! Then Cao Mengde must be regretting to death now."

Speaking of which, this time Huo Qubing led more light knights than last time, but the damage caused was not as good as the one that chased Yuan Shu.

The main reason for this was that although the reinforcement general was helpless, he also had a lot of cleverness.

Zhao Yun and Huo Qubing didn't have as many troops as each other, so they chose to fight in a narrow valley, causing the Cao army reinforcements to be unable to care for each other.

But the leader of the reinforcements was also a smart man. Seeing that Huo Qubing's light cavalry was doing too much damage to his army, he ordered the soldiers in the back row to spread out. In this way, the damage caused by Huo Qubing's light cavalry was much lower.

It was also thanks to Zhao Yun's repeated attacks that the reinforcements were almost defeated, and they were no longer willing to fight, and there was no way to maintain a loose formation. At this time, Huo Qubing's light cavalry played its greatest role.

Thinking of this, Liu Rui couldn't help but said: "I'm afraid the role of light cavalry will not be so great in the future. Now that Cao Mengde knows how to deal with it, if he uses the same tricks in the future, there may be countermeasures."

Guo Jia also pondered: "Yes, but this time the interception, the mutual cooperation between General Zhao Yun and General Huo Qubing, made the subordinates think of a new idea."

Liu Rui nodded and said with a smile: "Feng Xiaomo is going to betray you, hurry up and listen."

Guo Jia whispered: "The mutual cooperation between the light cavalry and the heavy cavalry can play a greater role. However, this still needs to be verified in the future. However, the defense of the light cavalry is too weak. Besieged or blocked, the fate is basically doomed, so in the future, at least the light cavalry should be equipped with a team to protect and break the back."

Liu Rui also said solemnly: "The key issue is speed. If the speed can't keep up with the light cavalry, then there is no way."

Guo Jia smiled and said, "Double horses! The soldiers sent to protect can have two horses each, so that they can solve the problem of carrying weight and maintain their speed."

Liu Rui nodded. Although his current horses are not in short supply, they are not luxurious enough to be equipped with one person and two horses. Moreover, this is only a way of thinking for the future, and wars will be needed to verify it in the future.

While the two were talking, they saw Huo Qubing and Zhao Yun walk in with their heads down.

Liu Rui asked suspiciously: "Two generals, are you not happy after winning the battle?"

Zhao Yun said in a low voice, "I met the general who was chasing the order just now, and he sent me the battle report of Cao Jun, please take a look, my lord!"

Guo Jia took the battle report, glanced at it, then raised his head and said in surprise: "Liu Bei transferred [-] horses from Xuzhou?"

Liu Rui also looked at the battle report carefully, and then said regretfully: "It's okay! You two are also thinking of the soldiers, so you don't have to blame yourself."

Huo Qubing lowered his head and said, "I'm not reconciled. If General Zhao and I stayed for an extra day and a half, maybe this kind of thing would not have happened."

Liu Rui laughed and said: "It is said that Liu Xuande is born with a good life, but I hit him to defeat Liu Xuande, not to mention that he has [-] reinforcements, even if he comes with [-] and [-] troops, we still have a way to defeat him."

Zhao Yunhuo raised his head only after Qubing.

Liu Rui said solemnly: "The opportunity on the battlefield is fleeting. Since we haven't seized it now, we will lead the army to crush it in an upright manner in the future. How can the generals be distracted for the sake of temporary gains and losses?"

Zhao Yunhuo came to his senses when he was sick, and said in unison, "Thank you, my lord, for your guidance."

Guo Jia also smiled and looked at the two of them, and said, "Next time we have a decisive battle with Cao Jun, the two generals will kill more enemy troops, won't they earn back the credit they lost today?"

Both of them nodded hurriedly, and Zhao Yun said even more anxiously: "My lord, you will miss the opportunity at the end, and you are already guilty. When the next war starts, you must make me take the blame and make a contribution!"

Liu Rui laughed, clicked Zhao Yun, and said, "Okay, next time you will be the vanguard. If you can't beat Cao Jun, I will punish you!"

Zhao Yun was overjoyed at this, and left the military tent in a happy mood.On the other hand, Huo Qubing, when he was in a decisive battle, could only swipe on the sidelines, unable to participate in a dignified duel. Seeing that Zhao Yun had accepted the promise, he couldn't help but envy.

Besides, in Cao Jun's camp, when Liu Bei heard the news of the arrival of reinforcements, he instantly felt a little more confident.

He put on his clothes, went to find Lv Bu, and the two came to Cao Cao's Chinese army tent again.

Cao Ren happened to be by Cao Cao's side, listening to Cao Cao's whispered explanation. Seeing Liu Bei and Lu Bu, Cao Ren couldn't help but look a little disgusted, but he still said, "My lord, Xuande and Fengxian are here."

Cao Cao was still lying on the bed, and when he heard Cao Ren's words, he hurriedly raised his head, but slammed his forehead, his face uncomfortable.

"Meng De, you should rest assured." Liu Bei hurried forward and grabbed Cao Cao's hand.

Cao Ren's lips moved, and he was about to speak, but when he saw Xi Zhicai staring at him, he could only helplessly shut up.

"Xuande, the reinforcements were intercepted last time, alas..." Cao Cao sighed, his expression languid.

"Brother Meng De, please rest assured, my reinforcements from Xuzhou have arrived!" Liu Bei smiled.

"What?" Cao Ren on the side couldn't help but be surprised. Cao's reinforcements were intercepted halfway. What about Liu Bei's reinforcements? , , .

Cao Ren was surprised, and Xi Zhicai, who was next to him, shivered.
