When Cao Jun rushed to Dazhai, seeing Li Jun's shield blocking his way, he used his shield to protect his body and rushed forward.
But Li Jun was also smart. When Cao Jun hit and was about to withdraw, the spearmen stabbed wildly.
Seeing that the army's attack was blocked, Xu Huang's face turned cold, and he shouted loudly: "The drummer obeys the order, beat all the battle drums, and the army's morale has been lifted."
After Xu Huang finished speaking, he turned his head and said to the guards on the side: "Go and inform, as long as the first person who breaks through Li Jun's defense line, regardless of life or death, will be rewarded with ten acres of fertile land, promoted to three ranks, and whoever kills three enemies will be rewarded." An acre of fertile land."
"Yes!" The guards got the order and patted their horses to inform. Cao Jun heard such a high reward, and heard the sound of the attack drum, as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, he rushed into Li Jun's defense without fear of death. Forward by leaps and bounds.
Seeing such a scene, Xu Huang nodded in satisfaction. As long as he wins Yangwu in this battle, no matter how much he loses, it will be worth it.
With Yang Wu, Yuan Wu can't do anything alone, and Cao Jun can advance to Yizhou and gain complete dominance.
But not long after, Xu Huang frowned, because the attacking Cao Jun was completely defeated by the burning oil poured by Li Jun.
Cao Jun, who was covered with burning fire oil, kept rolling, trying to extinguish the fire on his body, but all this was in vain, and he could only lose his breath amid howling and screaming.
Heart-piercing screams rang out, and Cao Jun, who had been dazzled by the temptation, was so frightened that he woke up and didn't dare to approach him for a while.
The attack was frustrated, and the army was afraid to fight. Xu Huang's face darkened, and he thought for a while and shouted: "Get out of the way, I will personally lead the attack, who dares to retreat, kill!"
Xu Huang patted his horse and rushed forward, shouting along the way, conveying the order to everyone's ears.
Seeing that Xu Huang took the lead in person and issued an attack and death order, these Cao troops had no choice but to follow behind and rush to kill.
Chapter 648 Xu Huang's Great Defeat
Although Xu Huang took the lead and played a role, Li Jun, under the command of Hao Zhao, resisted Cao Jun in accordance with the order in danger, making Cao Jun pay a heavy price for every advance.
Xu Huang took the lead in the sudden attack for half an hour, but only reached less than [-] meters. This made him very anxious, worried that Li Jun would return to help.
But it's useless to be anxious. Li Jun has prepared for defense for a long time, and he has a good general who is good at defense. Even if he attacks for half an hour, an hour or even several hours, the result is almost the same.
Seeing the time passing by, Xu Huang's intention to retreat became more and more serious, but he felt unwilling to retreat like this. It would be better to besiege and kill Huang Zhong, and he would gain something.
Two hours later, seeing that the progress was far from what was expected, Xu Huang knew that if he did not withdraw his troops, he would only be surrounded, so he forbearance ordered the entire army to retreat.
But when Xu Huang and his army hadn't completely withdrawn from Dazhai, suddenly a soldier came rushing in panic. "Report! There are a large number of Li troops behind our army, and they are encircling and advancing."
"Huh?" Xu Huang's heart trembled, he thought quickly and asked, "How far is Li Jun from here?"
The soldier replied, "It's less than five miles."
"So fast?" Xu Huang thought for a while and said, "The army is preparing for battle, speed up and charge back towards the surrounding Li army."
In the current situation, Cao Jun can only hope to break out if Li Jun is caught off guard, and Xu Huang thinks exactly like this.
But Guo Jia is such a wise man, how could he not have thought of this point, he let the army advance slowly, because of this, he was afraid of being counterattacked by Cao Jun.
The two armies collided, and Li Jun advanced steadily. Cao Jun's plan to break through the siege quickly had not achieved any results, so he was forced to fight hand-to-hand.
Under Guo Jia's order, Li Jun surrounded Cao Jun in one direction like herding sheep. Although Xu Huang led his troops to resist desperately, it was of no avail.
Seeing that the space was getting smaller and smaller, Xu Huang was extremely anxious. If he died here, it would be bad news for Cao Cao, and the situation in Guandu would also change.
This is nothing, the most important point is that Liu Xie will no longer have military power, and the words in the court will be weakened a lot. If it is not done well, it will be taken over by Cao Cao alone.
No, you can't die here, Xu Huang shouted in his heart, his eyes quickly swept to the surrounding Li Jun, ready to find a weak position.
After observing for a long time, seeing that Li Jun had no flaws, Xu Huang couldn't help feeling sad, and shouted: "Now it has become a battle of trapped beasts, and it is all the fault of this general."
"But we are all His Majesty's imperial guards, how can we stand still, not afraid of death, we will break out of the siege!"
After Xu Huang's words fell, he slapped the panting horse with the back of the axe, and charged towards Li Jun. Seeing this, most of the remaining soldiers and horses galloped behind him.
Guo Jia, who was watching the battle situation on a high slope in the distance, saw that Xu Huang was fighting for his life, with a pensive expression on his face, and said to the guarding soldiers after a long time:
"Go and order the two generals Tai Shici and Huang Zhong to let Xu Huang survive, but these Cao troops must try their best to stay."
The guards were puzzled and said: "Master Jijiu, you can kill all Cao's troops, why do you want to let the net go."
Guo Jia smiled and said: "Although Xu Huang is an enemy general, he can be regarded as the son of heaven in Cao Ying. If he is surrounded and killed here, Cao Cao will have no one to restrain him."
Hearing this, the personal guard seemed to understand but said: "Master Jijiu is wise, but the villain's head is hard to beat, so let's go and inform."
"Go." Regarding the flattery, Guo Jia smiled and waved the guards to leave.
After Guo Jia's personal guards conveyed the order, although Tai Shici, Huang Zhong and others were puzzled, they still strictly implemented it, and ordered the army to reveal a hole and let Xu Huang leave.
Xu Huang, who was fighting, was already heartbroken, but Li Jun suddenly relaxed at this moment, allowing him to see a way out of despair, and rushed forward desperately.
After a desperate fight, Xu Huang broke out of the siege, seeing that there were less than a hundred people left beside him, he felt extremely painful, but he still endured and led the army to retreat in an emergency.
Xu Huang was defeated and returned, so he immediately found Ma Chao and asked him to stop attacking temporarily, and wait for the arrival of Cao Jun's follow-up army, so as not to repeat the same mistakes.
In fact, Xu Huang didn't need to say that Ma Chao would not take the initiative to attack in the near future, because Huang Xu shot an arrow and fought for a long time, hurting his arm muscles and bones, and it may not be more than a month before he can recover his strength.
After explaining to Ma Chao, Xu Huang hurriedly set off to Cao Cao Dazhai without taking a rest, intending to inform the news and ask for punishment along the way.
As for Guo Jia, when Xu Huang retreated, he stepped up his siege. In less than two hours, he wiped out all the Cao troops who were still resisting, and captured more than ten thousand people.
This battle can be described as a great victory, but Guo Jia did not get carried away with complacency. Instead, he asked Tai Shici to escort the prisoners away, and then ordered the soldiers to build fortifications to prepare for the follow-up Cao Cao's army.
Tai Shici escorted the captives back to Dazhai, and immediately reported the matter to Chen Gong. Chen Gong was overjoyed when he heard about it. His body was aggravated by the wind and cold, and he also felt a little bit of strength regained.
After winning such a battle, Chen Gong also had the face to see Li Huiyi who was coming, but in order to avoid Cao Jun's counterattack, Chen Gong still carefully ordered Tai Shici to patrol three times a day, not to take the initiative to attack, and to maintain the situation until Li Huiyi's arrival.
Both sides had no intention of fighting, and Guandu, which had been vigorous for a while, had regained its former calm, but behind this calm, there was a man-eating atmosphere hidden.
Cao Cao's Dazhai was discussing the matter of pulling out the camp at this time. Calculated according to the time, even if Xu Huang and Ma Chao's troops did not capture any of Yuanwu and Yangwu, they should have a firm foothold and can accept the follow-up army.
At this time Cao Cao was arranging the order of departure for the army, when suddenly a personal guard broke into the tent and interrupted his words, making his face a little angry.
"Report!!! Prime Minister, General Xu Huang asked to see him outside the tent, saying it was urgent!"
The soldier glanced at Cao Cao and saw that his face was angry, so he hurriedly said it out to avoid punishment.
"What?" When Cao Cao heard this, he was puzzled at first, then his heart trembled, and he couldn't help but exclaim.
Xu Huang appeared here at this time, so there is only one possibility, he returned in a big defeat, and the situation has undergone earth-shaking changes.
After a brief absence, Cao Cao quickly shouted, "Let General Xu in!"
As the voice fell, the travel-worn Xu Huang entered the tent, kneeling down with shame on his face and saying: "I have not seen the prime minister, and I have not committed any crimes. Please punish the prime minister severely."
These words came out of Xu Huang's mouth, shattering Cao Cao's last remaining hope, he couldn't help leaning back a little, and asked feebly, "Tell me, how much is left in the army?"
Xu Huang's face turned ugly, and he replied: "Returning to the Prime Minister, all the soldiers and horses in the headquarters have been damaged in battle. Less than a hundred people came back with Huang, and the rest were all surrounded by Li Jun. Their lives and deaths are unknown."
