Chapter 894 Yu Jin Withdraws His Troops

"Although the enemy army forced back the tiger cavalry, it was only at the end of its powerful crossbow." Cao Cao ordered: "I ordered you to advance with Zihe in seconds. Our Chinese army also advanced slowly and completely destroyed Yu Jin!"

"Here!"

The flag soldiers of the Chinese army waved their flags and gave orders to Xia Houyuan and Cao Chun.

Xia Houyuan said with great enthusiasm: "Everyone, listen to me. The enemy army is already vulnerable. This is the time for a man to make great achievements. Come and kill him!"

"kill!"

Nearly 20,000 Cao's troops roared together, and then quickly advanced, with momentum like a flash flood. They had just been besieged by the Yanzhou soldiers, but now they were rescued. Their desire for revenge was high, so they naturally wanted to show these Yanzhou soldiers a little shame.

Although the three hundred tiger cavalry were forced to retreat, the seven hundred leopard cavalry still had energy. They were all masters of the hundred-man general level and were very energetic.

Seven hundred tiger and leopard cavalry and 20,000 Cao Jun, one large and one small, are advancing towards the Yu Forbidden Army, and Cao Jun's 20,000 Chinese Army are also advancing towards the Yu Forbidden Army, preparing to launch the final general attack.

"The situation is not good. If we fight hard, our army will definitely fail." Xu Shu frowned.

Yu Jin nodded, thought for a while, and immediately ordered: "The rear team becomes the front team and retreat to Zhencheng immediately!"

If nothing can be done, they will naturally not continue to fight hard. With Yu Jin's order, more than 10,000 Yanzhou troops immediately retreated towards Zhencheng without engaging in battle.

"Zihe, quickly move your troops to pursue us!"

Seeing that the enemy was about to run away, Xiahou Yuan hurriedly shouted to Cao Chun. The seven hundred leopard cavalry are elite light cavalry, and they ride on fat and strong horses. They will definitely be able to catch up with the enemy!

Cao Chun nodded. He didn't like to talk. Without saying a word, he led Cao Zhen and the seven hundred leopard cavalry to stare at the Yu Forbidden Army and pursue them. As long as the light cavalry could go around in front of the Yu Forbidden Army and restrict the pace of the Yu Forbidden Army, then Let the infantry of Cao's army led by Xia Houyuan encircle them, and they can completely destroy this army!

Yu Jin is the general guarding Yanzhou and Liu Ye's absolute confidant. After this person is eliminated, Yanzhou will be like a smooth road without any barriers. No one can stop Cao Jun's fierce advance.

"Hmph! Without armor and cavalry equipment, we are just hundreds of light cavalry. How dare you act so arrogantly in front of me?"

Yu Jin snorted coldly: "Ma Tie, you lead the Xiliang Qingqi to fight to stop the enemy's cavalry!"

"Here, General Yu."

I saw a group of military horses suddenly detached from the Yanzhou army, about a thousand light cavalry, with the banner of horse on them.

The leader was young, just twenty years old, with fair skin and a high nose. He was a handsome man. This handsome man is none other than Ma Teng, Ma Teng's son and Ma Chao's younger brother. He also inherited the Ma family's martial arts and cavalry tactics.

When Ma Tie grew up, he was very excited and eager to lead the army in the war. Ma Teng was so annoyed by him that he casually gave him two thousand cavalry and ordered him to go to Yanzhou to help Yu Jin defend Yanzhou.

In this battle, Ma Tie also led more than a thousand cavalry to assist Yu Jin in the battle.

"Brothers, let Cao Jun know how powerful our Xiliang cavalry is!" Ma Tie shouted sharply, and more than a thousand Xiliang cavalry behind him broke out from the Yanzhou army formation and headed towards the Leopard Cavalry to fight.

Although the Xiliang Iron Cavalry had 300 more men than the Leopard Cavalry, the morale of the Leopard Cavalry did not drop. So what if the other party is a Xiliang cavalry? They are an elite force composed of hundreds of generals!

"superior!"

Cao Chun waved his hand, and the seven hundred leopard cavalry rushed towards the Xiliang cavalry as fast as lightning, and the two armies began to fight. Although they are all light cavalry, the combat power of the Leopard Cavalry far exceeds that of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry. After all, each of the Leopard Cavalry is a hundred-man general, and the individual quality of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry is indeed far inferior to that of the Leopard Cavalry.

However, the Leopard Cavalry has also begun to suffer losses. After all, unlike the Tiger Cavalry equipped with armor, the Leopard Cavalry does not have full-body armor. Although the Xiliang Cavalry on the opposite side is slightly inferior in individual soldier quality, it is not muddy after all. Damn, under the desperate counterattack, the Leopard Cavalry also began to suffer casualties.

"It's a pity that if there were no light cavalry in the Forbidden Army, they would all be wiped out this time!" Cheng Yu frowned.

"Liu Yuqing occupies Liangzhou and Bingzhou, and most of his subordinates are cavalry. Although Yanzhou is located in the Central Plains, it is normal to have cavalry." Cao Cao sighed.

"It doesn't matter. Since the enemy has escaped, as long as we can trap the enemy in a city, then dig deep ditches to trap the enemy in the city, then our army will select elite troops to raid Luoyang. As long as we can capture the false emperor, we will assassinate The battle will be won!”

Cao Cao ordered: "The whole army attacks, kill them!"

"Kill!"

More than a thousand Xiliang cavalry and leopard cavalry fought hard. Although they had a slight numerical advantage, the losses were much more serious than that of the leopard cavalry. More than three hundred cavalry were lost, while the leopard cavalry only suffered fifty losses. The remaining people. In other words, these 700 tiger and leopard cavalry are equivalent to 4,000 Xiliang cavalry. They are indeed elite soldiers at the level of a hundred-man general!

Cao Jun chased them all the way behind, while Yanzhou Jun ran in front. During this period, there were several battles, causing the Yu Imperial Army to lose more than a thousand people.

In the end, about 13,000 people were left and fled into Zhen City. The tens of thousands of Yanzhou troops could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. Zhencheng is a strong city in Yanzhou. As long as it holds firm, it will be difficult for the enemy to invade.

After escaping into the city, Yu couldn't help but sigh: "Oh, now that we have been defeated and fled into Zhen City, we have lost nearly 10,000 soldiers. We really have failed the great general's trust."

He was ordered to guard Yanzhou, but now he was severely defeated by Cao Cao. How will he explain to Liu Ye in the future?

Xu Shu comforted him and said, "General Yu, don't worry about it. Victory and defeat are common matters for military officers. Although our army is defeated, as long as we lead our troops to stay here and contain Cao's soldiers, the general will definitely get the news and leave Hulao Pass in person." Come to help, when the time comes our army will attack from inside and outside, and we will definitely be able to defeat Cao's army."

After listening to Xu Shu's words, Yu Jin nodded and said: "Well, that's all."

After saying that, Yu Jin perked up and ordered: "Send my military order, immediately organize the young men in the city, prepare a lot of materials to defend the city, and be sure to stop Cao's army here!"

Under Yu Jin's order, the sergeants and young men in the city began to prepare for war, and the mood in the city was high.

At this time, Cao Jun outside the city also began to move.

"In seconds, I will leave you ten thousand people and a thousand cavalry here. You must stop Yu Jin here. Can you do it?"

Xia Houyuan clasped his fists and said with firm eyes: "Prime Minister, please rest assured that the general will be able to seal the place here!"

"good!"

Cao Cao praised and ordered: "Pass my order and the entire army will go out tonight to dig trenches outside the city and set up antlers to intercept the enemy!"
