Chapter 122 Launching a Counterattack

He Yi drew her saber in her hand and shouted loudly.

"Come and general name!"

Xiahou Dun sneered, borrowing the momentum of the horse, united with the horse, the spear in his hand had already stabbed out like lightning.

"Xiahou Dun is here!"

when!

He Yi has always been conceited and brave, she is the most reckless in the army, and usually goes first to attack the city, so she is quite confident in her martial arts.

However, just now when the spears and knives collided in one place, there was an astonishing sound.

He Yi's eyes widened suddenly, for the knife just now, there was a burst of force from the blade, and she almost couldn't hold the long knife and wanted to throw it out, and she managed to hold the handle of the knife.

A thought flashed through He Yi's mind: this person is invincible.

Xiahou Dun went back and forth, the spear in his hand swept out, He Yi held up his sword to fight, but this time he couldn't hold the spear in his hand no matter what, and just let go.

Swish!

Xiahou Dun shot the long knife in He Yi's hand, and then stabbed He Yi in the heart, and he fell off the horse immediately.

After stabbing He Yi to death, Xiahou Dun drew his sword and cut off the general flag, and the He character flag fell down and covered the ground.

Seeing the flag fall, Cao Cao smiled slightly: "Attack with all your strength!"

"forward!"

More than 5,000 officers and soldiers launched a fierce attack at this moment. He Yi's army, which was already on the verge of collapse, saw that the flag fell, and the morale of the army was already unstable. The officers and soldiers hurriedly chased after them.

Cao Cao frowned: "The whole army stops."

When the generals and schools heard Cao Cao's general order, they immediately restrained their subordinates from pursuing. They watched He Yi's army defeat and left, feeling a little strange in their hearts. Why didn't the captain let me wait to pursue and expand the results of the battle?

"Soldiers are precious and fast, rush to help the Licheng army, hurry up!"

Only then did the five thousand officials understand, and the generals of the Yuzhou Army immediately urged the troops to quickly move towards Changshe City.

When Cao Cao and the Yuzhou Army appeared on the stage, it happened to be the time when the Licheng Army was about to run out of fuel. There were mountains of corpses in front of them, flags, horses and weapons were thrown all over the place, and Licheng Army was surrounded by mountains of corpses and seas of blood. It was simply a purgatory on earth.

Cao Cao saw Bo Cai's general flag from a distance, and at this moment Bo Cai ordered the Chinese army to charge into battle. There were only a few thousand troops left around him, and the guards were unprecedentedly weak.

"Conical formation, straight into the middle army!"

When the officers and soldiers heard Cao Cao's order, they immediately lined up while marching. Xiahou Dun's three hundred cavalry were at the forefront, and Cao Cao was the commander of the central army.

Bo Cai was startled: "Archer, where is the archer?"

Two thousand archers were called in to draw their bows and set their arrows, but the two thousand arrows shot out were soft and only wounded dozens of people. Bo Cai was furious, but when he turned his head, everyone was exhausted , obviously exhausted his strength in the dozen rounds of salvo just now.

"Fix the formation! Tell Bo Qun and Huang Shao not to get entangled with the officers and soldiers, and come to someone's side quickly."

Although Bocai served as the coach of the Yellow Turban Bandits in the direction of Yuzhou, he was more and more reluctant to live in a high position for a long time, so he hurriedly mobilized thousands of troops around him to surround him, and at the same time ordered the subordinates who were besieging the Licheng army to withdraw.

Huang Shao, who was urging his subordinates to besiege the Licheng army, was shocked when he heard this, and grabbed the collar of the messenger with both hands.

"What, withdrawal? How is this possible?"

Seeing that the Licheng army was on the verge of collapse, it only needed a round of onslaught to completely take it down, yet they wanted to withdraw their troops at this time, how could this be possible?

The messenger who was pulled by the collar by Huang Shao struggled and said: "The peripheral officers and soldiers attacked He Shuai's troops and came towards the central army. Bo Shuai asked Huang Shuai to withdraw immediately."

Huang Shao frowned, let go of him, and sighed heavily.

"Brother Ten Thousand, the blood shed today is in vain!"

After all, Huang Shao didn't dare to disobey Bo Cai's order, waved his hand, and ordered the troops to retreat.

The yellow turban bandits who were besieging the Licheng army saw Huang Shao's general flag fluttering. Although they were also puzzled, they did not dare to disobey the military order and had to retreat.

Xia Houyuan shot the Yellow Turban Bandit in front of him to death with all his might, and gasped, "Yellow Turban Bandit, why did you retreat?"

Liu Ye forced a smile: "It must be Brother Meng De who is here?"

Xia Houyuan was overjoyed when he heard the words: "It must be so. It must be that Brother Meng De led the army to defeat the Yellow Turban bandits' outer formation and approached the Chinese army. Bo had no choice but to let us go."

Liu Ye looked at the Licheng army behind him, there were less than 600 soldiers, and everyone was injured.

"Don't get entangled, retreat to the city. Brother Mengde knows that our army is retreating, so he will naturally retreat."

After all, the Licheng Army no longer entangled with the Yellow Turbans, but slowly retreated northward, but the formation was still tight, and they would never give the Yellow Turbans any chance to take advantage of it.

After Bo Qun received Bo Cai's order, he also led his troops to get rid of Sun Duo's entanglement, but Sun Duo took advantage of the situation to pursue him and beheaded more than a hundred people. Only 800 of the thousands of elite soldiers fled. And there are more than 1,200 people in Sun Duo's department.

Seeing Liu Ye covered in blood and bruises all over his body, Sun Duo couldn't help admiring him. He stepped forward to support Liu Ye, but he gently waved his hand.

"I'd better hurry into the city."

But Cao Cao led the army to attack Bocai's central army. There were few people around Bocai, but those who gathered around Cao Cao were the sharp soldiers who had just won, their morale was high, and they easily entered the central army. The officers and soldiers fought bravely, killing the yellow scarf bandits on their backs, seeing that Bocai's general flag was right in front of his eyes.

This time, the officers and soldiers were even more encouraged. If they could kill Bo Cai, wouldn't it be a world-class feat? Therefore, the officers and soldiers fought bravely, but the Yellow Turban bandits also desperately protected the commander. Therefore, although the officers and soldiers had the upper hand, they were unable to obtain Bocai's head for a while.

Xiahou Dun had a staunch nature, so he immediately begged Cao Cao, "Meng De, why don't you lead three hundred cavalry to break into the Chinese army, if you can capture and kill Bo Cai, today."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Cao Cao waving his hand.

"Withdraw!"

Xiahou Dun was taken aback, and looked up, only to see tens of thousands of Yellow Turban bandits who were still besieging the Licheng army before turning back and forth, swarming towards Bocai's army, because they were focused on saving the commander, so they were very fast.

"Quickly retreat, if we get caught in the siege, we won't be able to escape."

Although Bocai's general flag was right in front of him, Cao Cao was not greedy for meritorious deeds at all. Instead, he gave up the possibility of beheading Bocai, just like throwing away his shoes.

Although the officers and soldiers felt sorry for a while, they did not dare to disobey Cao Cao's generals, so they turned and retreated.

I have to say that Cao Cao's decision was very wise. If he forced a surprise attack, once he got entangled with the Yellow Turban Bandits, it would be difficult to get rid of. When the Yellow Turban Bandits' reinforcements arrived, it would be difficult to leave.
