This is equivalent to twice Bo Cai's.

And his and Zhu Jun's troops together are only 30,000.

"Pursue, absolutely cannot let Bo Cai escape so easily."

"As long as he wants to flee west, he must cross the Xun River."

"As long as we catch up with him when he is crossing the river, and attack him halfway, we will definitely be able to defeat him completely!"

Huangfu Song says with sword-like eyebrows.

Zhu Jun also expresses agreement.

Attacking halfway across the river is definitely a good way.

"By the way."

After deciding to pursue Bo Cai to the Xun River, Huangfu Song looks at Zhu Jun and asks: "On your way here, did you not encounter Duan Yu's army?"

Zhu Jun shakes his head to indicate no.

"Before setting out from Yangdi, Zishi and I sent out many scouts, but none of them found where Duan Yu's army was."

Huangfu Song frowns.

This is strange.

Where exactly did Duan Yu go?

Clearly, he was ordered to lead the army to suppress the rebellion, but the army has been out of Luoyang for so long, yet it seems to have disappeared.

Is there any plan, or is it really as his nephew Huangfu Li said, deliberately delaying, waiting for them to be defeated.

Zhu Jun raises his head to look at Huangfu Song and says: "I estimate... Duan Yu should be delaying his advance."

"Before he came from Luoyang, our situation was not good. If he didn't have any other plans, he was waiting for us to be defeated."

Huangfu Song and Wang Yun both look at Zhu Jun.

There is no one else here.

Zhu Jun's words are not hidden either.

These three.

Zhu Jun was recommended by Yuan Kui, and Wang Yun was also recommended by Yuan Kui.

Huangfu Song was recommended by Yang Ci.

Each camp is very clear.

Duan Yu is obviously not on the same path as them.

Duan Yu helping them win has no benefits.

This is certain.

And if they are defeated by the Yellow Turban thief soldiers, then for Duan Yu, it is actually beneficial.

On this point, the three understand better than anyone.

Wang Yun frowns, his eyes slightly narrowed, and he snorts coldly: "Humph, if he is really stationing troops and not advancing, this time we will also submit a memorial to impeach him for the crime of delaying the war."

Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song both nod.

The siege of Changshe has been lifted.

The rest is to pursue Bo Cai.

As long as Bo Cai is completely annihilated, they will have a certain right to speak in the court.

At that time, submit another memorial to impeach Duan Yu, even if Duan Yu is protected by the Son of Heaven and the eunuchs, he will still have to suffer the consequences.

"At present, we must quickly solve Bo Cai, absolutely cannot let Duan Yu pick up a bargain."

Zhu Jun says: "In case Duan Yu comes out to pick up a bargain at this time, we will be passive."

Huangfu Song nods and says: "That's right, let the army rest for half an hour, and then we will gather all the cavalry first, pursue Bo Cai first, and absolutely cannot let him cross the Xun River."

"Delay him on the east bank of the Xun River, Zishi, you lead the army in the rear, as long as the army arrives, you can completely annihilate him!"

West of the Xun River.

A team of thousands of people is still moving along the west bank of the Xun River.

Cao Cao is still leading the army in front.

In the scorching noon, Cao Cao feels like he is about to be roasted and oozing oil.

In the distance ahead of Cao Cao, a fast horse quickly comes to Cao Cao.

"Big Brother, Big Brother!"

Cao Ren on the horse says excitedly: "Big Brother, the scouts ahead sent news that before dawn today, the Yellow Turban thief soldiers outside Changshe were pincer-attacked by Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song's two armies and have been routed."

"Now tens of thousands of Yellow Turban thief soldiers are coming in our direction, looking like they are preparing to retreat to the west."

"The scouts said that a great general of the Yellow Turban thief soldiers is also among them, estimated to be Bo Cai!"

Cao Cao, who was a bit wilted from the sun, immediately became spirited.

"How far is it from us?" Cao Cao asks hurriedly.

"Twenty or thirty miles away." Cao Ren replies.

"Great!"

Cao Cao punches his fist and says: "Quick, quick, order the whole army to dismount on the spot, then prepare to ambush Bo Cai, and send out more scouts, must determine the location where Bo Cai crosses the river."

Cao Ren immediately takes the order and leaves.

Cao Cao, riding on the horse, has an excited expression: "Ziyi is truly a god-man. He must have calculated this, which is why he let us march like this."

"If we can capture Bo Cai first, that would really be snatching a great achievement!"
