Crossing the Battle of the Three Kingdoms

After leaving the General's Academy, Wang Teng was assigned to the White Tiger Army, starting directly from the battalion level, and made a lot of military exploits. He was already the head of the regiment at this time.

Closer to home, after hearing the order, Wang Teng hurriedly led the soldiers to collect the food and water they carried.

Seeing Wang Teng leave, Li Huiyi also stepped forward to inspect the soldiers, and when he saw the wounded, he also stepped forward to comfort him, trying to stabilize the low morale of the army.

Not long after the inspection, Dian Wei came in a hurry, Li Huiyi stopped, turned his head and asked, "What's the situation?"

Dian Wei replied: "My lord, Cao's army stopped attacking and deployed heavy troops at the exit."

It seemed that Cao Cao really wanted to trap himself to death as he thought. Li Huiyi frowned slightly and said, "Go and count the soldiers and horses to see how many people are still there, and then send people to look for water sources."

Since we can't break through for a while, all supplies such as clean water and food are the top priority at present.

Cao Cao's siege was nothing more than wanting him to be short of food and water, and it would be a problem to walk when he was hungry, so he could take himself down without losing a single soldier.

After Li Huiyi inspected the army, he will summon all the generals to inquire about the personnel, food and other conditions.

In this battle, Li Jun lost more than half, with less than 4000 men left. There was not much food left, only enough for two or three meals, and even less water, which might not be used for a day.

As for the soldiers who went to search for the abyss, they returned without success.

Li Huiyi was short of everything, and Li Huiyi had no choice but to economize and distribute food and clean water uniformly, with a fixed amount for each person per day.

But even so, they couldn't support it for a few days, and the irritable Dian Wei came to the scene to object. "My lord, it's not an option to go on like this. Evil will lead the army to open the way tonight, and protect the lord to break out of the encirclement."

Li Huiyi waved his hands and said: "Cao Cao can't let our army rush out. Right now, we can only stand firm and wait for reinforcements. The four thousand soldiers and horses can't lose any more."

Dian Wei said anxiously: "But the army has no food and drink, and they can't wait for a few days. I'm afraid it will be difficult to raise weapons."

Li Huiyi thought for a while, and said to Wang Teng beside him, "Yunwu, go and lead the army to search for wild animals in the mountains. Remember to leave the blood of the animals. If the water runs out, drink the blood."

Wang Teng clasped his fists and said, "Yes, he led his troops to go before this."

Hunting wild animals to satisfy hunger will only slow down the predicament a little, and it will not have much effect on the overall situation. It is still necessary to look for opportunities to escape from danger as soon as possible.

Li Huiyi went on to say: "Come on, lead your people to investigate in the mountains to see if there is anything Cao Jun missed."

"Yes." Dian Wei stood up, turned around, summoned dozens of soldiers, and scattered around.

Li Huiyi said to the remaining generals: "Go and appease the soldiers now. If anyone wants to leave, let them go. Don't let the army mess up."

"However, there is one thing, that is to think well first, and not to use force to suppress it, otherwise there will be a catastrophe."

Hearing Li Huiyi's explanation, all the generals kept it in mind, and took orders to stand up and leave.

After arranging everything, Li Huiyi also sat in the same place, recovering his strength, imagining the current battle situation in his mind.

He was besieged, and Guo Jia in Ying County must have gotten the news, but Cao Cao should also send troops to besiege the city, and Guo Jia should be unable to get out.

As for Huang Zhongchu, Cao Cao's vacant camp should be taken down. I don't know if he will send troops to force Feng Gao and let Cao Cao return to aid.

As for Zhang Liao, who was the most promising supporter, I don't know if he had any news, if he did, he would arrive within ten days.

Li Huiyi sat and rested for nearly an hour, and then got up to gather the army, and went forward to find a suitable place to camp.

Li Huiyi couldn't be killed by the siege, Cao Cao was the happiest.

I thought that Li Huiyi would control the overall situation in Ying County, but I didn't expect that he would personally lead the army, which caught Cao Cao by surprise.

But it doesn't hurt the overall situation, as long as Li Huiyi can't help but attack Laiwu, then the plan he arranged will be successful, but with a little change.

Everything went as planned, Cao Jun commanded the tent, and everyone looked happy.

Once Li Huiyi dies, the north will fall into a group of dragons without a leader. At that time, Cao Cao can nibble at every step, sit on the north, and conquer the princes of the world, just around the corner.

Xun You, who has always been known for his joy and anger but not for words, also smiled at this time, cupped his hands and said, "My lord, Li Huiyi is already a lamb waiting to be slaughtered."

"However, just in case, tomorrow we will shrink the encirclement, narrow their turning space, and drive them into a dead end."

Cao Cao nodded and said, "Gongda is right, but we still advance slowly, lest Li Huiyi counterattack and let the protruding encircle."

Chapter 426

Xun You smiled and said, "My lord is still thoughtful, and you are impatient."

Cao Cao waved his hand and said, "Leave this matter to Gongda. You can arrange it tomorrow and tell the ministries to put defense first and advance second. Don't be greedy for merit."

Xun You replied: "My lord, don't worry, You will definitely remember, and you must strictly explain to the leading generals."

"Okay." Cao Cao looked at the crowd and asked, "Where should we send our troops when we take down Li Huiyi?"

Xu You said: "My lord, I don't know if you should make a suggestion or not?"

Cao Cao looked at Xu You, smiled and said, "If Ziyuan has something to say, just say it."

Xu You cupped his hands and said, "Master, have you ever thought that a living Li Huiyi is more useful than a dead one?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the tent frowned and thought.

There are indeed many advantages to keeping Li Huiyi behind, at least it can make the civil servants and generals under his command fearful.

But at the same time, there is also the risk of Li Huiyi fleeing back to the north, so all these arrangements will be in vain.

In front of him, there are two options, one is to kill Li Huiyi, and then defeat his subordinates and others one by one.

In addition, capturing him alive and using him as a threat to force the generals under his command to surrender, or binding him to the front of the army when attacking the city, will surely make Li Jun not dare to act rashly.

One more point, even if he was exchanged for a state, Li Huiyi's subordinates and others would probably agree.

Seeing everyone's pensive faces, Xu You said, "Capturing Li Huiyi is like killing a snake seven inches. The four northern states will surely fall into chaos."

"The Qingzhou army is currently in a stalemate with Liu Bei. If Liu Bei hears the news, he will counterattack and want to gain some benefits. Then Tai Shici and others will not be able to escape."

"My lord will have the opportunity to quickly take down Qingzhou, and then attack Yizhou, but actually transfer the troops to Bingzhou. Gao Shun is a loyal man, and he is a veteran who has followed Li Huiyi for many years."

"At that time, as long as Li Huiyi is bound in front of the army, he will definitely give up resistance. When the time comes to win the two states, and then exchange Li Huiyi for Yizhou, the lord can easily occupy the three states."

This idea is beautiful, it can save a lot of time, but the premise is to capture Li Huiyi alive.

Just as Cao Cao was thinking, a voice sounded outside the tent. "Report! There is an urgent report from Bingzhou."

"Come in!" Cao Cao put away his thoughts and let the soldiers outside the tent enter.

The soldier entered the tent, knelt down and said: "My lord, Xu Huang has returned to Xuchang, Master Cheng Yu ordered the villain to send an urgent report."

Cao Cao waved his hand, stood aside Xu Chu, stepped forward to take the letter from the soldier, and handed it to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao opened it and took a look, his expression turned ugly. "Zhongde really made a mistake. The Bingzhou army was wiped out, even the tiger and leopard cavalry were killed and injured. My son and nephew were all kept in Bingzhou, and their life and death are unknown."
