Liu Ke also finally arrived at Beiyuan under the cover of the army.
Ling Tong and others hurried over to see him.
"Gongji, you and I have been separated for some time. I didn't expect that we made great achievements as soon as we met!"
Liu Xiaoxiao said with a smile, but Ling Tong was flattered and quickly said: "All this is due to your Majesty's good leadership.
"Wei Chen is just implementing His Majesty's arrangements. Don't you dare to take credit for yourself?" "
Ling Tong was humble, and Liu Ke valued him more and more.
At this time, Lu Bu on the side reported all the situation here. After hearing this, Liu Ke couldn't help but become cautious.
Originally, everything was within Liu Ke's expectation, and he thought he could finally catch Cao Cao.
Who would have expected that this time Cao Cao anticipated failure in advance and fled into the mountains early.
This also makes Liu Ke a little regretful.
However, all of Cao Cao's main forces are surrounded by him here. This time he escaped in time, and he will definitely not make a comeback like last time.
At the same time, Liu Ke predicted that even if Cao Cao returns, he will probably face a struggle without gunpowder.
For Liu Ke, what he needs to face now is how to deal with the remaining 20,000 Cao troops who are stubbornly resisting.
Liu Ke did not adopt other people's opinions and kill these people completely.
Instead, prepare to capture them alive. Anyway, there is no external threat now, and you have enough time to deal with them.
Therefore, a tragic siege was staged in Beiyuan.
The surrounded Cao army thought about breaking out every day, but was repelled by Liu Ke's army time and time again.
?? If this continues, the enemy's consumption will become greater and greater, and one day they will eventually run out of food and water, and they will surrender without a fight.
So Liu Ke was more worried about Dian Wei who was chasing him out.
Because Cao Cao was so cunning and cunning, even in the process of escaping, he would inevitably use some tricks.
Dian Wei pursues with all his heart, but he will be fooled if he is not careful.
Therefore, Liu Ke sent Pang De to lead an army of 10,000 to the mountains to support him.
After Liu Ke made arrangements, he was about to leave when Zhuge Liang suddenly exclaimed.
"Your Majesty, my subordinates finally know Cao Cao's movements. Chasing him into the mountains at this moment has no effect."
Hearing this, Liu Ke asked with some confusion: "Kong Ming, in your opinion, where should we go?"
Liu Ke has great trust in Zhuge Liang. Since he said it was invalid, Liu Ke no longer doubted it at all, but directly asked about the purpose of the next step.
Zhuge Liang pondered for a moment, waved his feather fan and said: "From what I can see, Cao Cao's escape direction must be Pengyang!"
"Pengyang? Kong Ming, are you talking about Pengyang County, which is sixty miles north of Linjing?"
"Yes, because although Pengyang and Linjing are not far apart, there are mountains in between, so they are still in Cao Cao's hands.
In addition, Cao Cao escaped, so he must not have carried much food and baggage. Even if you go deep into the mountains, you always have to come out for supplies.
Then Pengyang must be his only way, so as long as he rushes to Pengyang in advance, he will definitely be able to stop Cao Cao there. "
Hearing this, Liu Ke was overjoyed and said, "Who can rush to Pengyang to intercept Cao Cao?"
"The general is willing to go!" Everyone came out in unison.
Finally, Liu Ke's eyes looked around and stopped on Le Jin's face.
"Wen Qian, you will lead the troops personally this time! Mancheng, you will serve as the deputy general. The two of us will work together to block Cao Cao at Pengyang City!"
Le Jin and Li Dian accepted the order in unison, and then immediately rushed towards Pengyang.
Although it is hundreds of miles away from Pengyang, the mountain road is rugged and difficult to travel, and you can only travel more than ten miles a day.
But Le Jin was not worried, because the main road was so difficult, and it would be even more difficult for Cao's army traveling through the mountain trails.
The situation is similar to what Le Jin expected.
At this time, Cao Jun was indeed in a very embarrassed state. They had been in the mountain for three full days.
Every day, I walk through thorn bushes and climb on the edge of steep cliffs, coupled with the occasional sound of pursuing soldiers behind me.
Cao Jun lived in a state of mental stress all day long.
Therefore, attrition can be found when the daily headcount is taken.
These people must have sneaked away at night.
But at this moment, Cao Cao no longer cares about so much. He just wants to reach Pengyang as soon as possible and return to Wuwei after repairing.At this time, Cao Zhang couldn't bear it anymore.
"Father, it's not a problem for the opponent to pursue you with his troops. My son is willing to lead two thousand troops, set an ambush on the road, and teach the opponent a severe lesson!"
Facing Cao Zhang¡¯s invitation to fight, Cao Cao wanted to refuse.
But thinking that the other party is always hanging behind you and may chase you at any time is really not an option.
So, he nodded in agreement.
Cao Zhang took action immediately, leading two thousand ambush troops to quietly ambush on a mountain.
Dian Wei's situation is not very good at the moment. The opponent is overcoming all obstacles, so why is he not doing the same?
"And another point is that Cao Jun knew the route, but Dian Wei didn't even know the route.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?? ? ? ? ? ? Fr erpa, that he often goes wrong and has to go back and find his way again.
¡°That is to say, Dian Wei¡¯s will is firm and he never gives up.
If it were an ordinary general, he would have had no choice but to retreat long ago.
However, as the other party gradually became tired, the number of clues left behind gradually increased, and Dian Wei finally did not get lost again.
By Dianwei's estimation, he was probably only a few hours away from Cao Jun.
Therefore, he decided to sneak up under the cover of darkness tonight and eliminate the opponent in one fell swoop early tomorrow morning.
The idea was good, but Dian Wei didn't know that the other party was also thinking about him.
The sun is about to set. According to past progress, the camp should have been set up and ready to cook.
But Dian Wei never gave the order and continued to pursue with his army.
The deputy general beside him had no choice but to step forward and persuade him: "General, we have been traveling for a day, why don't we set up camp.
It¡¯s getting late now, and it¡¯s even more dangerous to walk. "
Hearing this, Dian Wei glared at the other person unceremoniously, so frightened that the person quickly shrank his neck and retreated.
How could he not know that the darker the sky, the greater the danger.
"But if we don't compete for time, when can we catch up with Cao Jun?"
Even if there is danger, Dian Wei will not hesitate.
The sky was getting darker and darker, and the trees in the mountains were dense and shadowy, so I had to light a torch to illuminate it.
At this moment, the army came to a valley with steep stone walls on both sides, which looked very dangerous.
Dian Wei also noticed something unusual in the air.
But in order to hunt down Cao Cao, he no longer cared about so much. After a moment of consideration, he took the lead and rushed into the valley.
Just after the army entered one after another, there was a sudden loud noise, which alarmed everyone.
"Hahahaha, you common man, you have fallen into my trap!"
A roar of laughter echoed in the valley, and with the soldiers cheering, the voices gathered together, and it was impossible to tell how many people there were. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
