Chapter 2953 dignified
The retreating officers and soldiers of Cao's army looked back and saw the chasing Wolf Cavalry behind them, and their expressions showed fear.
When Xun You learned that another cavalry was coming, he felt a little helpless. If Cao's army could have a cavalry team to entangle the wolf cavalry, the army would not be in the current situation. Facing the enemy's attack, Cao's soldiers could only choose to retreat.
The soldiers who had just stayed to defend the Jin cavalry pursuit were the elites of Cao's army. However, Xun You couldn't bear these soldiers blocking the pursuers, but he had no way to do it. Facing the absolute strength of the Jin army,
Strategies play a very small role.
Thousands of soldiers were left behind to continue to block the enemy army, but Xun You did not let the army stop retreating.
Wolf cavalry, flying cavalry and strong crossbow troops started killing Cao Jun on the battlefield. This battle was unfair to Cao Jun who stayed behind.
"Those who surrender will not be killed!" The uniform shouts of the fighting Jin army echoed above the battlefield.
After hearing these words, many soldiers of Cao's army put down their weapons without hesitation. In such a battle, they could no longer see the hope of survival. Every time they faced a cavalry charge, their moods changed.
It will be extremely heavy.
Under the iron hoof, the so-called elite of Cao's army looked so fragile.
The officers and soldiers of Cao's army were completely at a disadvantage. The most unlucky ones were the ordinary officers and soldiers. At this time, they were ordered to block the enemy's charge and had no way to refuse.
Otherwise, it would be Paoze's sword and spear to greet these Cao Jun soldiers who disobeyed orders.
The soldiers of Cao's army who blocked the enemy army knew that they had been abandoned by the army.
The war gradually came to an end. Teams of soldiers were cleaning the battlefield, and the prisoners were tied up and gathered in one place.
They are also Han people. In fact, Cao Jun's soldiers did not have much objection to surrendering to the Jin army after the defeat. Besides, Cao Jun's soldiers also had a certain understanding of the situation among the Jin army. Even if they were punished, they did not have to worry about it.
Worry about survival.
In the eyes of some soldiers, being a prisoner of the Jin army at this time is more fortunate than becoming a soldier of Cao's army. At least following the Jin army's rear does not have to worry about defeat. This war has made Cao's army
The soldiers deeply realized the bravery of the Jin army, especially the damage caused to Cao's soldiers when the Wolf Cavalry and Flying Cavalry charged.
They believed that the Jin army would definitely do it if they surrendered. This was a soldier's trust in the best general in the world.
After returning to the camp, Xun You counted the troops in the camp and found that there were only more than 5,000 men left. Cao's army originally had 18,000 men. Unexpectedly, after a defeat in a battle, the number dropped by more than half. With more than 5,000 men,
It is impossible to achieve greater achievements on the battlefield in Jizhou.
"Commander, General Xiahou has not returned yet. Do you need to send cavalry to the battlefield to look for him?" a general asked.
Xun You waved his hand and said: "There is no need for this, General Xiahou has already died heroically on the battlefield."
The generals in the army were shocked when they heard this. In fact, after receiving the news that Xiahou Dun died in the battle, the generals in the army were already suspicious. After all, they did not see Xiahou Dun appear later. Otherwise, given Xiahou Dun's temper,
How could you sit back and watch your own army being pursued by the enemy like this?
"Call the generals of the army to come to the central army to discuss matters." Xun You ordered. For the current plan, the most important thing is to make the soldiers in the army feel at ease.
After receiving the order, the generals of each department rushed to the Chinese army's tent. This battle was a big blow to the soldiers in the army, especially the soldiers of Cao's army who had no ability to fight back when faced with the enemy's pursuit.
, could only keep retreating, and even the final retreat, if it were not for the bravery of the soldiers responsible for covering it, more Cao Jun would have died on the battlefield.
The atmosphere in the tent was a bit solemn, and the top position was Xun You. In the past, this position belonged to Xiahou Dun.
"In this battle, our army failed to control the enemy's movements. The scouts failed to detect the surrounding situation clearly. They were not aware of it until the Jin cavalry arrived. As a result, the army's lieutenants suffered serious losses. Among the current army,
There are only more than 5,000 people, and General Xiahou Dun died on the battlefield." Xun You said in a low voice.
The generals in the army were talking after hearing this. The defeat on the battlefield was a shock to them. The fact that Xiahou Dun died in the battle made the officers and men in the army a little incredible. Xiahou Dun was a fierce general in the army and had experienced many such battles.
"General Xiahou Dun met Lu Bu, lost a fight with Lu Bu, and killed him for Lu Bu." Xun You said slowly, instead of letting the soldiers in the army keep guessing, it is better to inform the generals in the army of the true situation on the battlefield, so that they can
They received the news with shock.
"Military advisor, if General Xiahou died in battle today, what should our army do?" asked a general.
The generals in the army all turned their attention to Xun You. Xun You was the military advisor and the highest-ranking person in the army except Xiahou Dun.
"Currently, the main task is to stick to the camp and collect the soldiers in the camp. After the generals return, they should carefully comfort the soldiers in the army. This time the Jin army won. It was because we made a mistake in gathering intelligence. But in
There are 100,000 of our troops in Changshe, but the enemy is at a disadvantage." Xun You said.
After hearing these words, the generals in the army looked better. Cao Jun in Changshe is now the spiritual support of the army officers. It is impossible for Cao Jun to achieve greater achievements in Jizhou. They don't even want to
If they dare to leave the camp easily, who can be sure whether enemy cavalry will appear after they leave the camp.
"Here." The generals in the tent said in unison.
After the general left, Xun You fell into silence. Tens of thousands of soldiers died on the battlefield. If this news reached Cao Jun, what kind of shock would it cause. In this battle, Xun You was
I felt deeply ashamed.
Xun You admitted that he had underestimated the strength of the Jin soldiers, especially the charging ability of the wolf cavalry. In the process of resisting the wolf cavalry charge, Xun You made a lot of efforts, but in his opinion, he could effectively resist.
The wolf rider looked so vulnerable in front of him.
When the Wolf Cavalry charged, their indomitable momentum stimulated Xun You. Compared with the combat effectiveness of the Wolf Cavalry on the battlefield, there was a big gap between Cao Jun's so-called heavy cavalry and the Wolf Cavalry. After observation, Xun You discovered that the main
The reason is that there is a chain connection between the Wolf Cavalry, and the Wolf Cavalry's method of assisting Han is similar to the way it fought with the Jiangdong Army in Bohae County.
