    The Seventh Army compiled and trained by Yu Jin had practiced many times in the past to launch counterattacks against the menacing Xiliang Army in the territory, but now it was useless. As the commander-in-chief, Yu Jin was naturally very anxious.

    The Xiliang army commanded by Jia Xu may not be as aggressive as Yan Xing, but it is no less difficult to deal with.

    Two days later, Yu Jin received military news that the Jingzhou army in Ye County was defeated.

    For persimmons, pick the soft ones first.

    Although Jia Xu had not fully discovered the true location of the main force of the imperial army in the enemy territory, he would never use troops according to Yu Jin's expectations. The Yan Xing and Zhang Liao troops dispatched from Xingyang and Yangzhai were just suspects in a feint attack, and their role was only  Contain and mobilize Cao's troops in Chen Liu and Yingchuan.

    The real attacker was the Jingzhou Army who was watching at the Nanyang border.

    Facing the crisis of the Guanxi army's pressure, Cao Jun chose to cut off his warriors and reached an agreement with Jingzhou Liu Biao. He gave up Nanyang County, which he had repeatedly fought with Liu Biao's army, in exchange for Jingzhou soldiers and horses stationed in Ye County as a flanking ally to contain the enemy.  and threatened the Xiliang Army who intended to attack Yingchuan.

    The Jingzhou soldiers and horses under Liu Biao did not dare to confront Yan Xing's Xiliang army head-on, but they were also unwilling to give up the important strategic buffer of the northern border of Nanyang. Therefore, they stationed troops on the border with an ambiguous attitude, made tentative moves, and continued to wait and see.  The development of the war situation in the Central Plains.

    Jia Xu's Guanluo army wanted to fight Yu Jin's army in enemy territory. The army was stationed in the northern border of Nanyang. The Jingzhou army that threatened the army's flanks had to be eliminated.

    Therefore, under the cover of two powerful groups of suspected soldiers, Bao Chu led the Guanxi cavalry to take the Sanya Road, deep into the territory of Nanyang, detoured behind the Jingzhou Army, and launched a surprise attack on the Jingzhou Army stationed in Ye County.

    In the Battle of Ye County, the entire Jingzhou garrison was defeated and general Wang Wei was killed.

    After this battle, the Jingzhou army was frightened.  Cai Mao's commanded the Jingzhou troops to withdraw southward and did not dare to go north to confront the Xiliang army.

    Of course, the actual situation is that Liu Biao, the leader of Jingzhou, is seriously ill. Cai Mao, the leader of the front line, intends to support Liu Biao's son Liu Cong to take the throne. He needs to rush back to Xiangyang City before Liu Qi to make preparations. At this time, seeing the Xiliang Army's troops in full swing, he has no intention of doing so.  To seize chestnuts from the fire of Cao's army, he hurriedly made excuses and covered up the defeat in Ye County as Wang Wei rushing in and being killed, and then hurriedly withdrew his troops and returned to Xiangyang.

    Yu Jin had no way of knowing the inside story, but he thought of the chain reaction after this battle.

    With the enemy flank threat in Guanluo removed, Jia Xu was able to use his superior strength to advance in multiple directions, launch a massive attack, break through his own defense line, and surround and annihilate the weak Cao army.

    Before the war, he boasted about Haikou, his face was gloomy and his heart was wavering.

    The situation has taken a turn for the worse and the defense line in the west is in danger. Do you want to ask Juancheng for help?

    ¡€¡€¡€

    On the south bank of the river, Cao Jun¡¯s position.

    "Beat, beat Nai Gong hard, and drive these thieves into the river to feed the fish and turtles."

    After escaping back to the south bank, Cao Hong, who was stripped of his military power, still stood arrogantly in the ranks of Cao's army, pointing at the Hedong warships cruising on the river and shouting.

    Naturally, Cao Jun's trebuchets did not act according to Cao Hong's shouts, but then, amidst the command of the military officials, they threw stone projectiles one after another, drawing long arcs in the air, and crashed into the water of the river like falling meteors, stirring up a storm.  There were huge waves.

    The Hedong warships on the water were a probing attack. After witnessing the dense rain of artillery shells and arrows from Cao's army and the tight defense of their positions, the walking boats, wooden rafts and the men and horses crossing the river ashore would be easily overturned and shot, they gave up the forced attack.  After cruising for a while, under the threat of Cao Jun's trebuchets, they all turned around and sailed back to the north bank.

    "Haha, good fighting, Nai Gong defeated these Western thieves."

    Cao Hong let out a sigh of relief in his chest and laughed proudly, as if he had just repelled a wave of attacks by the Xiliang Army under his command.

    Knowing that there were warships cruising east of the river to attack, he did not dare to take it lightly. General Xiahou Dun, who came in person, dismounted and witnessed this scene. He frowned slightly and led his soldiers straight to Cao Hong's back.

    "Zi Lian!"

    Hearing the familiar voice behind him, Cao Hong's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly turned around and ran over with saliva on his face.

    "Brother Yuan Rang, you are here."

    "No noise in the army! You are now a guilty person, but you are no longer the general of the army before. Don't let your temper run wild. Next time, be careful and handle it according to the military law."

    Xiahou Dun didn't care at all about Cao Hong's flattery, his face was stern, and his single eye revealed a sharp edge.

    Cao Hong did not dare to resist verbally, but Nuonuo kept saying it, and his behavior was completely different from before.

    He abandoned Beicheng and its defenders.The forward troops of the Liang army used this victory to boost their morale and reverse the situation?  "

    Cao Hong asked.

    "That's right." Xiahou Dun nodded, "Although the Qinting area can ferry people and horses, there is no ferry trestle before. It is impossible for the army to cross the river in just a few days. Therefore, if the Xiliang army sneaks across here, they will have to select only a small number of elites.  The men and horses are crossing the river to attack Juandu, or they are rushing to build a new Hejin ferry for the army to cross the river, and this will take a lot of time."

    "If we can seize this opportunity and knock out the elite forwards of the Xiliang Army, we can greatly dampen the morale of Yan Xing's army on the other side and restore the current unfavorable situation for our army."

    "What do you need me to do?"

    Cao Hong asked again.  Xiahou Dun glanced at him with a solemn expression.

    "I am determined to personally lead the main force and sneak to Qinting to encircle and suppress the Xiliang army's forward. The camp here must be guarded by generals. I want you to stay and act as if the main force of the army is still there and guard the Nancheng camp!" (Note  Please visit our website: www.hlnovel.com
