However, the horns of the Yangzhou Army continued to sound, with ups and downs.
"As expected of the Marquis of Dongyang, he was already prepared for the night battle, and the sound of the horn is probably the way they communicate," Xi Zhicai said.
Now don't talk about passing orders on the banner, even verbal orders can't be done.
However, Liu Ke was ingenious and used the sound of the horn to command the troops, and gradually gained the advantage.
There is not much time left for Cao Cao to consider.
"How long has it been since Yu Jin's troops set off?" Cao Cao asked suddenly.
"Back to my lord, it's been an hour." Xi Zhicai said.
Cao Cao closed his eyes and calculated the itinerary. He felt that it was almost there. When he opened his eyes, he was no longer confused. Flames were dancing in his eyes, and he said, "Are you afraid?"
"Don't be afraid! Don't be afraid!" The [-] new troops said in unison. Seeing their comrades fighting desperately, they were already ready to move.
Cao Cao was very excited. The new army he spent a lot of money on built did not disappoint him.
"The Yangzhou army has been fighting hard for an hour, and it is time to be exhausted. Do you have the confidence to defeat them?" Cao Cao drew out his sword and pointed at the battle group whose flames were gradually extinguished.
At this moment, the soldiers on both sides are fighting desperately, who is in the mood to hold the torch.
"Yes! Yes!"
Cao Cao was very satisfied with this answer, and told Xi Zhicai, "I will lead a new army of [-] to attack later, and you will lead an army of [-]. Hold the torches and gather the army. Don't be defeated one by one."
In this way, Cao Cao's army can resume small-scale operations, so that there will be no distinction between the enemy and the enemy.
"No!" Xi Zhicai cupped his hands, his expression firm.
It was a matter of life and death for Cao Cao's army, Xi Zhicai did not dissuade Cao Cao from charging in person.Cao Cao's martial arts are not bad, although he is not as good as a peerless warrior, there is still no problem in protecting himself on the battlefield.
"All soldiers, attack with me!" Cao Cao raised his sword.
Cao Cao led the final reserve team to join the battle, raising the curtain of the decisive battle.
Due to the joining of the new army, Cao Cao's army immediately rejuvenated and stabilized the situation.
When Liu Ke saw this scene, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion.Originally, he wanted to take advantage of Cao Cao's suspicion and kill more Cao Cao's troops.He has not charged into the battle, just to prove to Cao Cao that he still has power in his hands at this moment.
In fact, Liu Ke only had a battalion of [-] guards around him, and the whole army had already overwhelmed him, so he was able to gain the advantage so quickly.
However, with the entry of Cao Cao's new army, this little advantage gradually disappeared.
There is no point in waiting any longer.
"Follow me to fight the enemy!" Liu Kehan said in a voice.
"Life and death go hand in hand, serve the lord!" The soldiers of the Three Thousand Guards Battalion said as if they were dead.
Chapter 290
In the dim moonlight, Ji Ling led the army towards Cao Cao's barracks, cautiously.
As soon as he arrived at the camp, Liu Ye knew that there was no one there.
"General Ji, go straight up and light the fire." Liu Ye suggested.
But, where is Ji Ling willing?
He held the elite of Yuan Shu's army in his hand, if all of them were lost, Yuan Shu would definitely kill him.
Ji Ling didn't dare to take risks, and said perfunctorily, "No rush, wait for the scout to report."
The next moment, the scouts came to report, saying: "There are many soldiers and horses in the camp, and the guards are heavily guarded. It may be difficult to succeed."
Liu Ye looked from a distance and judged: "There is no one in the camp, it's just some straw people."
Ji Ling didn't believe it, and gave Liu Ye a blank look. You said that a grass man is a grass man, if not, what should you do?
Liu Ye was helpless, these were not Yangzhou soldiers and horses, his words had no weight, so he could only say: "General Ji can observe for a while, these figures will not move at all."
Ji Ling waited for a while to see if Cao Cao's army would move.
"Mr. came from Yangzhou and has a wide range of knowledge. I'm a rough person, so don't trick me." Ji Ling said.
Liu Ye saw that Ji Ling was hesitant and tried to evade in every possible way, so he said forcefully: "Military orders are like mountains, and General Ji has received military orders. If a certain deduction is wrong, General Ji can still evade in front of Yuan Shu. Blame it."
Ji Ling's brain is a muscle, but what Liu Ye said was easy to understand, and he understood it all at once.
Someone is responsible, but he still fights for a reason.
"Sir, would you like to issue a military order?"
What's not to dare?
Liu Ye promised in front of everyone on the spot that if Cao Cao had more than [-] troops in the camp, he would be willing to deal with it by military law.
"Someone will send troops here." Ji Ling said.
During this waiting time, Ji Ling didn't do anything, such as preparing fire starters.
Liu Ye made some calculations and asked Ji Lingbing to divide into three groups and light the fire from three directions to directly expand the fire.Ji Ling quickly agreed to this point.
Ji Ling led an army of [-] sneakily approaching the camp, right under the eyes of the "guards".When I walked in, I saw that it was all straw.
"ignition!"
