"How could it be!" Xu You was completely dumbfounded. He never thought that such a blessing would happen, that is, the 30,000 elite troops of the Jizhou Army under him were retreating steadily. , yes, it is retreating.
To be honest, Xu You didn't care about Yuan Shao's two sons at all, and Yuan Tan was a waste, and Yuan Shang was not much better than Yuan Tan. Yuan Shao's second son, Yuan Xi, was the one Xu Yougao could take a look at. Unfortunately, Yuan Shao didn't really like this second son, let alone the eldest son, so even if Yuan Xi wanted to, he was powerless.
This made Xu You very confident, even if the Guo family asked him to write down the military order, he would write it down without wrinkling his head.
From the beginning, Xu You tore open the gap in Yuan's army, and then the army marched in. He thought that as long as he broke into it, Yuan's army would be finished.
Responding from the inside to the outside, he, Xu You, had already penetrated into Yuan Jiajun's interior, even if he was swallowed in one gulp, Xu You didn't worry at all.
But it's different now, the elite under him are no longer the opponents of Yuan Jiajun's peasants, the miscellaneous army.
When Jizhou was destroyed, Xu You took most of the credit, because Xu You persuaded most of the elite Jizhou army to surrender, and the two brothers Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan took away only a quarter or even less. Even so, Xu You still found that his subordinates were no match for the Yuan brothers.
"Why is that!" Xu You didn't believe the scene in front of him, it was a hallucination, hallucination, but those miserable screams and those bodies lying on the ground wouldn't lie to him. On Xu You's face, blood spattered Xu You's face after a personal guard was beheaded. Xu You finally woke up.
"My lord, hurry up, hurry up! Those are not human, they are invincible!" A guard shouted miserably at Xu You.
The weapons in their hands can't break through the enemy's armor at all, but their armor is more like a piece of paper in front of the opponent's weapon. The weapon collides with the enemy's weapon and shatters directly. Come on, this is farting, it is simply bullying.
"No. I'm not leaving!" Xu You's eyes were also red. He can lose to anyone but not to the Yuan brothers. Two people who Xu You regarded as trash won him Xu You Where do you let Xu You face
"Haha, haha!" The brothers of the Yuan family on the top of the city laughed loudly as they watched the scenes below, to relieve their anger and hatred, you must know that they have always been suppressed and beaten by Cao Cao's army, but now they are How can you not be relieved to fight against the enemy, not to mention that Xu You has always regarded himself as their elder. Now watching his army being swallowed up by Yuan Jiajun, this is a naked slap in the face.
"Xu You is a waste!" Cao Cao was also angry. The 30,000 vanguard army was directly swallowed by the enemy. It would be fine if all the 30,000 were lightly armed or miscellaneous, but those were all the elite of the Jizhou army, because the first battle was about the army The morale of Xu You also has his own plan for letting Xu You play against Cao Cao. At least Xu You has elites in his hands, so it shouldn't be a big problem to win the first round.
But now all of this has completely exceeded Cao Cao's plan.
"My lord, it's not Xu You's fault!" Guo Jia shook his head, because he is also someone who understands soldiers. Over there, Xu You's army was fighting the enemy, and Guo Jia also saw the bursting fighting power. Yes, but it is in vain for these Jizhou troops to go forward and succeed. It is not because they are not good but because the enemy is too strong.
"Strong? If the Yuan family brothers are so strong? Then how can I win Jizhou and Bingzhou Qingzhou!" Cao Cao was unreasonable in anger.
Guo Jia glanced at Cao Cao. There are two prerequisites for winning the Yuan brothers. One is that the Yuan brothers have internal strife. If nothing happened to Yuan Shao, it might be Cao Cao who was unlucky. Another reason is that a group of people like Xu You in Hebei persuaded him to surrender, which made Hebei so easily accepted by Cao Cao.
And now the Yuan family army seems to have changed their equipment, yes it is weapons and armor!
Guo Jia also saw Xu You's soldiers and horses over there. Even if the elite heavy armored footsteps came into contact with the heavy armored footsteps of the Yuan family army, they would be defeated on the whole line, with no power to parry.
"Those weapons and armor?" Cao Cao was taken aback for a moment.
"My lord, how do you think the soldiers and horses in the hands of the Yuan brothers compare with Xu You's?" Guo Jia asked Cao Cao back.
"Why not!" Cao Cao said to Guo Jia, Xu You had Jizhou elites in his hands, while only half of Yuan's army were former veterans, and the rest were newly recruited in Youzhou.
"What about morale?" Guo Jia asked again.
"Our army's morale is booming!" Cao Cao said to Guo Jia, Cao Cao's army has been suppressing Yuan's army to fight, so morale can't be good. There is a kind of psychological advantage in beating him, that is, this guy is not as good as me, no. Cao Cao's army now has such an idea.
"The morale, strength, and elite are not as good as mine, and they can still break up Xu You's army. Then it's the role of those weapons and armor." Guo Jia explained to Cao Cao.
"What weapons and armor have this ability?" Cao Cao asked puzzled.
"My lord, just look at it." Guo Jia also couldn't figure out what kind of armor and weapon could have such an ability.
"My lord, go, if you don't leave, you won't be able to leave!" Xu You's personal guards are protecting Xu You to the death, but they promise to protect, and the elite of Yuan's army over there will know where Xu You is, because Xu You is a general. The armor is very obvious, and the flag of the general behind him is also very obvious. The heavy armored footsteps of Yuan's army wanted to kill Xu You first so that the enemy would be leaderless.
Also, the head of Xu You is worth a lot. Yuan Shang has already offered a reward. As long as someone can kill Xu You in the army, he will be rewarded with two thousand gold.
Who doesn't like such a big credit.
Xu You still wanted to struggle, but he also knew that there was nothing he could do. He had no choice but to remain silent and passively protected by his personal guards, hoping to break out of the siege.
"Shao Qi, throw down the military flag!" The head of the bodyguard shouted to the soldiers carrying the flag over there.
"Put down the military flag?" The soldier named Shao Qi was stunned for a moment. The military flag is the soul of an army. Generally, soldiers on the battlefield will look at where the general flag is, because it will make them feel at ease. If the handsome flag or the general flag is gone, then it means that their general or coach is finished, even the head is gone, and what a fart.
This means that the whole army is broken. But the current scene is no different from the collapse of the whole army.
"Run!" As soon as the general flag was thrown down, all Xu You's subordinates breathed a sigh of relief, and they stopped fighting like that, but started to run desperately.
The flag of the main general is gone, which means they can retreat, not deserters. (to be continued..)
