Three Kingdoms: My Strategy Simulator

A good dream?

This is probably just the beginning, and it doesn't even give Cao Jun a chance to dream.

Cao Cao endured the throbbing pain in his head, thinking about the current situation and pondering how to defeat the enemy.

This is undoubtedly a plan to exhaust the enemy, but it is extremely difficult to crack it in a short time.

Previously, Cao Cao judged that Li Ji would steal the camp, so he did not set up traps outside the camp to avoid alarming the enemy.

In addition, Cao Cao had just lost 90% of his cavalry, and even if he wanted to send cavalry to drive away and encircle the harassing small groups of cavalry, there was no one available.

More importantly, Cao Cao could not and dared not order the entire army to completely ignore this harassment and sleep peacefully, otherwise, Li Ji might really pretend to attack and directly trample the camp.

Once defenses are neglected, thousands of cavalry are enough to trample the camp.

Facing Li Ji, Cao Cao didn't dare to reveal such a major flaw.

And at midnight, even if Cao Cao wanted to change the horn sound representing the enemy's attack, it would be difficult to convey it to the Cao army.

The bloodshot in Cao Cao's eyes was even worse, and the throbbing pain was still deepening, so he just sat at the entrance of the tent in a daze.

After about two quarters of an hour, the chaotic Cao army camp slowly calmed down again, and when the Cao army soldiers were preparing to rest again.

The short horn sound representing the enemy's attack sounded again from all directions of the Cao army camp, once again waking up large swaths of Cao army soldiers.

'As expected!'

Cao Cao closed his eyelids slightly, couldn't help but take a deep breath, and the last bit of luck completely died out.

After confirming the destruction of the Cao army's cavalry, Li Ji really didn't have any intention of stopping when things were good, but was preparing to carry out this plan of exhausting the enemy to the end, sure that the Cao army would not be able to counter it for a while.

This was harassment that lasted all night.

It was not until dawn, when the figures of the White Horse Cavalry outside the Cao army camp could be gradually seen.

In order to avoid unnecessary casualties caused by the Cao army's counterattack with arrows, the White Horse Cavalry, which had been tormenting the Cao army all night, quickly dispersed like clouds and moved away.

As the sky brightened, the entire Cao army camp was quiet to an excessive degree.

Without the torment of the horn sound that lasted all night, almost all the Cao army soldiers were immersed in dreams, and only the sound of snoring was constantly echoing in the Cao army camp.

Cao Cao, who had also stayed up all night in the central army tent, still dared not fall asleep at this time, but after dawn, he quickly sent scouts to investigate the situation of Liu Bei's camp.

The serious loss of cavalry made every scout particularly important.

Before dawn, when the White Horse Cavalry was hovering around the Cao army camp, Cao Cao did not dare to send out scouts, for fear of being shot to death by the White Horse Cavalry.

Once even the scouts were gone, then even if Cao Cao had 100,000 elite soldiers, he would just be blind.

After thinking for a night, Cao Cao's biggest worry was that Li Ji would lead a large army to attack his camp at this moment.

The Cao army was exhausted, and even if they had the advantage of the camp, it would be by no means easy to defend the camp.

Moreover, once Li Ji continued to attack fiercely during the day, completely preventing Cao Cao from setting up traps outside the camp, at night, he would continue to fall into the cycle of being harassed by the White Horse Cavalry.

How long can the Cao army soldiers' will last under such high pressure day and night without collapsing?

Three days?

Or five days?

At the thought of this, Cao Cao frowned, sweating profusely, and only felt the mountain-like pressure suddenly pressing on his heart.

One mistake, and he would be completely caught in Li Ji's rhythm, with little chance of turning over.

If Li Ji really does this, how should he break the situation?

This is almost a conspiracy relying on the advantage of troops and the advantage of cavalry, and Cao Cao could not think of how to crack it for a while.

Cao Cao's eyes were full of bloodshot, but at this moment, he didn't even have a trace of sleepiness.

……

At the same time, in Liu Bei's camp.

After personally confirming the destruction of Cao Cao's cavalry last night, Li Ji left the corresponding orders for the White Horse Cavalry to exhaust the enemy, and returned to the camp with Liu Bei early to rest.

Although he only rested for two and a half hours in a hurry, and was still sleepy-eyed, at least he had slept for a while. After Xu Chu brought a basin of cold water to wash his face, Li Ji was basically awake.

It was already Mao Shi (5-7 AM) at this moment, and the soldiers in the camp had already gotten up to make a fire and cook, and a special smoke was permeating the camp.

As early as last night, when Liu Bei and Li Ji decided to personally lead the cavalry out to exhaust the enemy, it was decided to hold a military meeting at Mao Shi.

Therefore, after washing his face, Li Ji hurriedly went to the central army tent to meet Liu Bei, and then participated in the military meeting together.

In the military meeting, Zhang Fei, Huang Zhong, Tian Yu and other generals successively reported the specific process and results of last night.

Although Liu Bei and Li Ji had both personally witnessed the destruction of Cao Cao's cavalry, the details were not clear, not to mention that Tian Yu subsequently led three thousand White Horse Cavalry to exhaust the enemy, and the results needed to be known.

Among them, when he heard Huang Zhong report that he had shot a Cao general in the eye, and that Cao general pulled out the arrow and ate his eyeball on the spot.

Li Ji's fingers, which were originally tapping the fan bone casually, paused, and a hint of strangeness appeared in his eyes.

Could that unlucky guy be Xiahou Dun by chance?

It's just that the battlefield was chaotic at the time, and it was dark, and Huang Zhong couldn't distinguish the identity of the enemy general. In addition, the Xiahou brothers didn't dare to report their names to avoid attracting enemy attacks.

Therefore, Huang Zhong still doesn't know the specific identity of the Xiahou brothers, and only distinguishes from the armor that they are Cao generals with a not low status.

Huang Zhong's tone could not hide his regret for not being able to kill the enemy general, so Liu Bei comforted him and said.

"The night was dark, and the battlefield was chaotic. It is not a crime of war that the two of them escaped. Hansheng doesn't need to worry about it. If you meet again in the future, it will not be too late for Hansheng to kill them."

"Yes, Lord."

Huang Zhong was not necessarily receptive to care, but he was very grateful for Liu Bei's trust, and responded in a deep voice.

As for Zhang Fei and Zhou Tai, they didn't get any big fish either.

Especially Zhang Fei, with his loud voice and reckless charge, the Cao army almost retreated upon hearing the sound in the case of unclear sight, so Zhang Fei charged back and forth several times, but the results were few, far less than Zhou Tai.

When Tian Yu stepped forward to report, this man, who was usually quite taciturn, also briefly opened his mouth and said.

"Following the Marquis's order, starting from Chou Shi (1-3 AM), the last general harassed the Cao army every two quarters of an hour, and stopped at the beginning of Mao Shi. The Cao army never dared to leave the village to drive them away, and countless people in the Cao army camp could not fall asleep."

"Oh?"

After hearing this, Li Ji was shocked and asked several questions about the Cao army camp's reaction, confirming that there were few who could really fall asleep for a moment in the entire Cao army camp last night.

Under normal circumstances, staying up all night is nothing.

However, the Cao army first fought for a long time during the day, and then tossed back and forth at night, which is a great burden on both physiology and spirit.

A smile appeared on Li Ji's face and said.

"At this moment, I'm afraid that more than 90% of the Cao army generals are sleeping soundly."
