Chapter 708: Crossing the Yellow River

ps: Chapter Anti-theft, correct it later...

Cao Yan led the way and rushed to the front, playing an exemplary role. Under Cao Yan's leadership, the cavalry, with its powerful impact, instantly penetrated the Sima Army's formation, killing the opponent, throwing his armor and fleeing in a panic.

Cao Yan did not pursue him relentlessly, but rushed to the foot of the mountain and stopped attacking and stopped in time.

Just now, the Xiaoqi Camp took advantage of the advantages of the terrain and attacked quickly, and suddenly broke down the Sima Army's defense line. However, after rushing to the foot of the mountain, the advantage on the terrain disappeared, and after rushing out of the mountain pass, it would enter the plains. If the Xiaoqi Camp rushed all the way, it would be great in terms of momentum, but it would be easy to fall into the siege of the enemy cavalry. Once you go deeper, you would be too late to retreat.

Cao Yan has experienced many battles and naturally knows how to advance and retreat. Even with the victory of the Knight Camp, he did not take advantage of the victory to pursue and advance riskyly. Instead, he judged the situation and used the terrain to block the Sima army.

Establishing a formation in the Yamaguchi area is undoubtedly the best choice, especially when the enemy is strong and we are weak, and the enemy is large and we are few, the choice of terrain becomes more important. In the Yamaguchi area, the front is wide and the back is narrow, and there are barriers on both sides. Advance can attack and retreat and defend, which is the best place to block the enemy's attack.

Cao Yan has been watching this place along the way. If he had to go to war, then this place would undoubtedly be the best place.

He suffered a severe blow in the first battle, which was equivalent to giving Sima Jun a wake-up call. During the pursuit, Sima Shi did offer a huge reward. Cao Liang's head alone was worth tens of millions, and the rest of the people all had valuable rewards.

The heavy reward made Sima Jun's blood vessels rush up and his spirits excited. It was not until he encountered this critical hit that he woke up a lot and his momentum became much more restrained.

Sima Shi was in the army at this moment. Seeing the defeat of the Wuwei Army, he couldn't help but be furious and ordered them to revive their strength. He must break through the defense line of Beimang Mountain before dark, and must wipe out the entire Xiaopingjin Ferry to cross the river.

The two sides fought fiercely near the mountain pass, with war horses neighing, killing sounds roaring, and the battle was unprecedentedly fierce. Both sides fought fiercely, and cavalry continued to fall from the horses. In the fierce battle, there were heavy casualties.

However, Cao Yan did not retreat at all because he knew that if his defense line was lost, the entire retreating army would be caught by the Sima army, especially the family team without combat effectiveness, which would be completely reduced to a lamb to be slaughtered.

If you stick here for a moment, you can guarantee the success chance of the army's retreat. Therefore, no matter how difficult the battle situation is, Cao Yan must persist and must not let Sima's army cross this mountain pass easily.

Just when Sima Shi was worried, suddenly the rear team of the Xiaoqi Camp was in chaos. It seemed that an army was rushing to the rear of the Xiaoqi Camp. Sima Shi couldn't help but be overjoyed. The opportunity was not to be missed, and he would never come again. He immediately ordered the Sima army to forcibly encircle the left and right sides, and cooperated with the army to complete the siege of the Xiaoqi Camp.

The one who created riots in the back team of the Cavalry Camp was not someone else, but the former military captain Gao Jun and the rear military captain Xun Hong.

Before Cao Yan attacked Luoyang by the Cavalry Camp, he detained Gao Jun and Xun Hong. Although there was no evidence that Gao Jun and Xun Hong were involved in the Sima family rebellion, in order to prevent problems, Cao Yan still obeyed Cao Liang's words and took the lead in detaining the two of them.

But out of years of friendship with colleagues, Cao Yan did not kill the two of them, but just imprisoned them.

Facts have proved that Cao Liang still has vision. Gao Jun's father Gao Rou later served as the general and became Sima Yi's biggest accomplice. The Xun family also participated in the mutiny. If Cao Yan did not take the lead in seizing these two people, it would cause great losses to the Cavalry Camp.

However, when retreating, Cao Yan obviously could not take care of the two of them, and only sent a few of his confidant soldiers to guard them.

Cao Yan has a confidant, and Gao Xun and the other two naturally have confidants. Cao Yan's current command is the subordinates of Gao Jun and Xun Hong. They have led the front and rear teams for many years, so it is impossible for them to lack a few loyal people.

After Gao Jun and Xun Hong were imprisoned, these were already ready to rescue the two, but whether it was the Knights' barracks or Jinyong City, Cao Yan's personal soldiers were very strict in guarding, and they never succeeded.

However, after entering the retreat, especially after fighting with Sima's army, he naturally had no choice but to care about them. So Gao Jun and Xun Hong's confidants suddenly took action, killed the personal soldiers of the guards, and rescued them.

Although Cao Yan's prestige is unattainable in the cavalry camp, it is impossible to be loyal to everyone. After all, Gao Jun and Xun Hong have been in office for many years. Even if Cao Yan is strong, there will always be a small number of people loyal to them.

After getting out of trouble, Gao Jun and Xun Hong were full of resentment towards Cao Yan, so they immediately summoned their old subordinates who were loyal to them and started a commotion at Cao Yan's back team.

Although the scale of the riot was not too large, it caused damage to the morale of the cavalry camp. Just imagine, the cavalry camp was fighting hard in front and resisting the Sima army forward, but now it is like a knife in the weak spot, causing the rock-solid cavalry camp to split.

During the decisive battle, many things with a slight difference can often influence the progress of the situation. The riots caused by Gao Jun and Xun Hong in the back team eventually affected the overall situation, causing Cao Yan to be surrounded by Sima Jun.

Cao Yan couldn't help but be furious. It was precisely because he was kind-hearted and did not want to harm him, so he just removed his military power and imprisoned them. However, he did not expect that he would not die when he beat the snake and was eaten by the snake. He saved his lives at that time, but it resulted in tragic consequences.

After Cao Yan was trapped in a heavy siege, the situation suddenly became serious, but the cavalry who turned against the enemy was a minority. Most of the cavalry fought to the death, and even if the blood was sprinkled on the battlefield, they refused to surrender.

Although the situation was unfavorable, Cao Yan still fought hard and fought fiercely with the Sima army. After several failures in breakthroughs, Cao Yan knew that today's battle was difficult to escape, but he still gritted his teeth and persevered. Even if he fought one soldier and one soldier, he would never surrender.

If the battle is delayed for a moment, Cao Yan can complete more tasks after the rear. Since he has chosen such a critical task, Cao Yan has long been determined to die.
