There was a little trouble in the pursuit of Cao Cao.
After Qin Feng and Fang Yue discussed for a while, they divided the more than 3,000 cavalry into more than 20 teams of 100 people and a team of 500 people. The former was cast out like a net to comprehensively pursue Cao Cao's defeated troops, while the latter, under the leadership of Qin Feng, pursued Cao Cao in a targeted manner.
According to their predictions, the only direction Cao Cao could choose to escape was to the west. The two armies of Yu Jin and Zhou Cang who advanced by water started a little slowly, but they were full of momentum. Although they could not keep up with the battle in Xiaoxiuwu, they still posed a great threat.
According to common sense, Cao Cao should try to avoid such dangers, use the remaining forces of Dong Zhao and Yu Du in Hanoi to connect and break up, and look for opportunities to cross the river southward in the Mengjin and Xiaopingjin areas.
Of course Wang Yu knew that Cao Cao would not give in easily, but at that time he was worried about Lu Bu's safety and had no time to think about it. What happened was an accident. After Cao Cao withdrew his defeated army for a distance to the west, he suddenly turned south and headed south at a speed that can be described as desperate.
The staff who could not keep up with the team were all abandoned by him ruthlessly. Among the famous people Qin Feng caught along the way, the names of which Wang Yu had heard included Liang Xi, Zheng Hun, Yang Xiu, Liang Mao and more than ten people. Those were nothing. There are countless famous ones.
Cao Cao changed directions quickly and walked in a hurry. He also chose mountains and hills to travel. Qin Feng was caught off guard and was thrown away for a distance. By the time he reconnected with Fang Yue, who was familiar with the terrain of Hanoi, analyzed Cao Cao's movements, and caught up in circles, it was already a little too late.
The great luck among the misfortunes was that Cao Cao also encountered an accident.
School Captain Li Shiyi is also a local. During this period, he has been leading the Hidden Mist Army to fight guerrillas near Xiaoxiuwu. Because the hundreds of people were spread too far apart, the more than a hundred people he had managed to gather were insignificant and did not have time to catch up with the previous battle. It is extremely threatening in pursuit.
Cao Cao walked on the mountain road and temporarily got rid of Qin Feng, but he collided with Li Shiyi. In a head-to-head encounter, Li Shiyi's more than 100 people are definitely no match for the more than 200 guards led by Dian Wei and Xu Chu, but with their familiarity with the terrain and special tactics. He caused great trouble to Cao Cao.
If Dian Wei had not generously asked for his life, Cao Cao would have made a prompt decision and asked Dian Wei to lead more than a hundred dead soldiers to defend the rear at a mountain pass. Perhaps Cao Cao would have been blocked in this way.
"One man is trying his best to defeat a hundred people, but a fierce man like Dian Wei has the consciousness of death." When you risk your life to fight, the power can only be described as terrifying.
Li Shiyi was unable to defeat Dian Wei, but paid the price of dozens of lives. When Qin Feng and Fang Yue arrived, they were unable to defeat him.
Hearing this, Wang Yu vaguely recalled the scene of the Wancheng Incident in history. Zhang Xiu used Jia Xu's strategy. On the surface, he was deceived by being submissive, and unexpectedly attacked Cao Cao at night. The latter was completely unprepared and his life was hanging by a thread. At that time, it was Dian Wei who guarded the gate and fought to the death, blocking Zhang Xiu's troops from the camp, and Lao Cao escaped.
The historical description is that Dian Wei fought to the death alone. He was covered in dozens of wounds, but he still stood tall when he died. Zhang Xiujun was so frightened that he did not dare to step forward. With such majesty, he is worthy of being rated as a fierce man by Lu Bu and Zhao Yun.
Of course, this does not mean that Dian Wei is invincible. If Qin Feng and Li Shiyi attack fiercely at all costs, Dian Wei's hundreds of people will not be able to stop them after all. Qin Feng asked for help, but he probably still wasn't willing to kill too many people.
This is not a bad thing. When the war reaches this point, there is really no need to create too tragic a situation. In fact. Wang Yu also didn't want to take Dian Wei's life. If possible, he would also like to conquer this fierce general.
Considering Dian Wei¡¯s temperament, this is of course difficult, but you have to try. My father-in-law may not like to see him now. Rather than being embarrassed, it's better to go to the front lines and have a look.
With this in mind, Wang Yu ordered Zhao Yun to stay behind, and then called Tai Shi Ci to join Dian Wei with five hundred Qingqi.
Hanoi is located between mountains and rivers, and the terrain is originally dominated by mountains and hills. In order to raid Lu Bu, Cao Cao put a lot of effort into geography, which can be seen from the escape route he chose.
The place where Dianwei set up the defense line happened to be between two hills. The terrain was not considered dangerous, but if the large group of troops wanted to pass, they could only choose between rushing the defense line or making a big circle.
Qingzhou Qingqi attacked after a long distance, and then fought fiercely for several hours. They didn't have much energy left. They might not have time to take a long detour, and they might not be able to run halfway.
For the same reason, Qin Feng was reluctant to let his brothers rush into the enemy's defense line. More than 90% of the battle has been won. The Lord said that it doesn't matter even if Cao Cao escapes. Is there any need to let the exhausted brothers fight the stubborn enemy?
It can also be seen from the tragic scenes in front of the two armies that Qin Feng made the decision to avoid fighting and wait for reinforcements only after his attack was frustrated.??.
When Wang Yu's general's flag appeared on the battlefield, the Qingzhou soldiers gave out loud cheers. Cao Jun on the opposite side did not react much. Anyway, he had already realized that he was going to die. No matter whether he faced more or less enemies, how could he be prepared? What's the difference? On the contrary, Qin Feng and Fang Yue had a bit of shame on their faces.
Seeing Qin Feng¡¯s dejected look, Taishi Ci chuckled and said with a wink: ¡°Crazy man, you told me you couldn¡¯t do it without me, right? You just slap your chest to show off, what do you think, are you feeling deflated now?¡±
"It may not work if you ask more," Qin Feng knew that Taishi Ci was hinting to him that the lord was not here to ask questions, so it was no big deal. However, he and Taishi Ci were used to bickering, so he still hummed and retorted: "Ask no one." Ji and Shiyi already know that the black guy has been fighting like crazy, even if you take action, you have to be prepared to die together."
Qin Feng's martial arts skills are not very high, but he is absolutely fierce in fighting. Looking at his frightened appearance, it can only be said that Dian Wei's ferocity when fighting desperately is probably more terrifying than imagined.
Wang Yu looked up and felt that Dian Wei's black iron tower-like figure was really shocking, so he nodded and said: "Don't chase after the poor enemy. The decision you made was the right one. There is no need to let the brothers and the enemy die together."
Qin Feng breathed a sigh of relief and pointed to the hills on both sides of the road: "Eleven took the people around and they should be in place after a while. Then we will surround him from all sides. We can greet him with bows and arrows. Look at the black guy. Why are you trying to be so cruel!"
Wang Yu then discovered that there were many empty-saddled horses in the crowd. Look at Qin Feng's angry look. He divided his troops to outflank him, and he did not do anything to cover up. He did it in front of the enemy. Seeing this, Dian Wei still stood firm and refused to retreat. All I can say is that I have to trade my life for time.
After thinking about it, he simply got off his horse and walked slowly towards the opposite side.
"Lord?" Qin Feng was startled and was about to persuade him to stop him, but Tai Shici held his shoulders. Taishi Ci nodded to Qin Feng and whispered: "Madman. You and Wuji are holding the battle at the back. I will go forward with my lord. It will be fine. Just don't worry." As he said that, he hurried a few steps and chased after him. Behind Wang Yu.
I saw Wang Yu coming. There was also a commotion among the dead soldiers of Cao's army. Nearly half of the initial hundred or so people had been killed and wounded, and the number of those who still maintained fighting strength was only about sixty at most, and basically all of them were wounded.
The one who suffered the most injuries was Dian Wei. His fish scale armor was in tatters and could barely hang on his body. Where the nail leaves are broken, you can probably see bloody wounds. He was not unscathed in the battle with Lu Bu, and the subsequent escape and deadly battle left him even more scarred.
??According to common sense, hurting such a person is no longer a question of whether they have fighting ability, but that they may fall at any time. But obviously, it may be a certain characteristic, or it may be a strong spiritual power, in short. Dian Wei is still terrible now.
He raised his hand to signal the dead soldiers to be quiet. His eyes first turned to Tai Shici, and when they looked at each other, sparks came out. Then he stared at Wang Yu with a fierce look as if he wanted to kill someone.
"Are you Wang Pengju?" he asked angrily, "What are you doing here?"
"Exactly." Wang Yu nodded and replied, "I just feel that enough blood has been left, and I don't want to take General Dian's life anymore."
"You want to persuade us to surrender?" Dian Wei snorted coldly and said decisively: "There are only beheaded generals in our army and no surrendering generals. You have made the wrong idea!"
"Is that so?" Dian Wei's attitude and tone were very rude, but Wang Yu still looked calm.
"Otherwise, what else do you think?" Dian Wei looked over sideways, estimating the distance between them, and wondering if, with his own physical strength, it would be possible for them to rush forward and die together.
Wang Yu chuckled and said: "I just feel that General Dian doesn't have any confidence in his heart. Otherwise, why would he just talk and not practice? He has been sizing me up for so long and just hesitated to take action?"
"That's because you are standing too far away. If you have the ability, would you like to take a few steps closer to see?" Dian Wei's intention of sneak attack was seen through, and Dian Wei simply stopped hiding and grasped the handle of the halberd with both hands.
Wang Yu seemed not to have seen it, and just said to himself: "How about this? You and I will fight. It's up to you to choose between horse and foot. If the general loses, the situation of the battle will naturally reverse. If the general loses, , just put down your weapons as soon as possible and surrender as soon as possible What do you think, General Dian, dare to accept the challenge?"
"What's the matter" Dian Wei subconsciously wanted to answer the challenge, but as he spoke, seeing Wang Yu's leisurely and confident look, he suddenly felt guilty and couldn't continue.
Wang Yu used to lead armies in battles. He often took the lead and beheaded generals and enemies with real deeds. Even if it were a fair fight, I wouldn't dare to claim a guaranteed victory. Now that I'm so injured and exhausted, there's basically no chance of winning. At most?We can only try and die together.
Based on the identities of both parties, Dian Wei must have taken advantage of him to be able to fight in a one-on-one match. The problem is that these are not normal times. If he really loses, who will take the lead?
"I, General Guandian, are here. I have put my life and death at risk. The purpose of insisting is just to delay time. Brother Meng De must have been prepared for a long time and arranged for the boat to be disembarked at the ferry"
As he spoke, Wang Yu observed Dian Wei's expression, and he almost had an idea in his mind, so he immediately made another suggestion: "How about this? I will give up the pursuit. As for you, General Dian, from today on, Treat yourself as a dead person"
"As a dead person?" Dian Wei was stunned.
"Just treat yourself as dead and come back to life after there is an outcome between me and Brother Meng De."
"This" Dian Wei was confused.
"Our army has already been outflanked by hundreds of people, plus the 800 cavalry here. General Dian, do you really think you can withstand it? Since you want to delay, then I will grant your wish, but similarly, since you You are already dead. I will not force you to surrender to me, at least you can't continue to oppose me, right? Or, would you rather drag so many good brothers to die together in order to achieve your own reputation? "
Wang Yu is so slippery, he got Dian Wei in after three twists and turns.
Dian Wei just thought that he would rather die than surrender, but he never thought about the situation Wang Yu mentioned. If he doesn't surrender, he won't be killed, and he can't return to his lord. What kind of situation is this? However, it sounds reasonable
He turned around and saw that the eyes of the brothers behind him were still firm, but he always felt that something was different from before. Yes, ants still live in vain, let alone humans? There is really no need for him to force everyone to die for the sake of his reputation, he might as well become a living dead.
"A word from a gentleman?" He relaxed his hands and let go of the iron halberd.
"Hurry up and whip the horse!" Wang Yu smiled slightly, and the murderous calamity was finally resolved.
