Chapter 688

~7 min read 1,250 words

A large number of Yellow Turban troops on the east bank of the Xun River have begun to go ashore and run back.

Although there are pursuers behind.

But as long as you are lucky, you won't necessarily be caught up by the pursuers.

But it's different here; the river channel has been blocked, unless you find a place to go ashore again upstream or downstream.

When Sun Jian leads five hundred cavalry, charging and arriving at the east bank, seeing the scene of fighting on the opposite bank, he is completely stunned.

Where did this army come from?

How could it suddenly appear here?

Sun Jian is full of question marks.

Looking along the opposite bank, Sun Jian's eyes fall on the battle flag of the army on the opposite bank.

Gao?

Qu?

Vaguely, it seems there is also a Cao character.

"Cavalry Commandant Cao Cao?" A person flashes in Sun Jian's mind.

Of course, Sun Jian has not seen Cao Cao, but learned from Zhu Jun that Cao Cao was appointed as Cavalry Commandant and led troops to Yingchuan.

Of course, these are not the most important for Sun Jian.

The most important thing is that Sun Jian sees Bo Cai.

At this time, Bo Cai is commanding the Yellow Turban Army to impact the Han army on the west bank of the Xun River.

But in Sun Jian's view, the Yellow Turban Army has begun to flee in large areas.

Failure is only a matter of time.

Sun Jian, who sees Bo Cai, is suddenly anxious.

Why did they pursue tirelessly all the way from Changshe?

Isn't it for a full victory in one battle, to completely defeat Bo Cai, or directly behead Bo Cai.

Now that the war of pacification has just begun, whoever can take the first achievement is equivalent to winning the first prize.

Bo Cai is the leader of the largest group of thief soldiers in the eastern theater.

Taking Bo Cai, this achievement is enough to be enfeoffed.

But if they worked hard to defeat Bo Cai in Changshe, but in the end, it benefited others, letting others take Bo Cai, then it is not only losing the first achievement, but also losing a great achievement.

So Sun Jian is anxious.

"Han Dang, go immediately to notify the Left General of the Household and the Right General of the Household, and say that Bo Cai has fled to the Xun River."

"But there is an army fighting with Bo Cai."

Sun Jian looks at the Vanguard Camp and Trap-Breaking Camp on the opposite bank and says: "Bo Cai is about to be defeated and may be captured by the other side. Let the two generals come quickly and don't delay on the way."

After hearing this, Han Dang, the deputy general behind Sun Jian, immediately turns his horse and runs wildly towards the rear direction.

Just when Sun Jian discovers Gao Shun and Qu Yi.

Cao Cao also discovers Sun Jian on the opposite bank of the river.

"Big Brother, look, a team of troops seems to have come there."

Cao Ren, who is riding a horse side by side with Cao Cao, points to Sun Jian's direction.

Cao Cao on the horse reaches out to make a sunshade and squints his small eyes to look.

At a distance of a hundred meters, although he cannot see the faces clearly, he can see the flags of that cavalry.

A "Sun" character is embroidered on the fluttering red battle flag.

"Sun?"

Cao Cao squints his eyes and thinks, suddenly remembering a person.

"It should be the Army Supervisor Sun Jian under Zhu Jun."

"Zhu Jun's army has caught up?" Cao Ren asks with raised eyebrows.

Cao Cao nods immediately. It is clear that Sun Jian brought the vanguard, and Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song's army should be behind.

"No, must let them be faster."

Saying that, Cao Cao looks at Cao Ren and says: "You command here, I will go."

After Cao Cao finishes speaking, he whips his horse and walks out of the forest, heading straight to the direction where Gao Shun and Qu Yi are commanding.

"General Gao, General Qu." After Cao Cao comes to the two, he points to the direction of the east bank of the Xun River.

"Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song's vanguard has come, which means the main army is not far behind."

"Their goal must also be Bo Cai!"

"If we want to achieve full success, we must snatch Bo Cai before Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun." Cao Cao says.

Gao Shun and Qu Yi look in the direction Cao Cao points, and sure enough, they see the cavalry led by Sun Jian.

At this time, Sun Jian has not made a move on the east bank.

Gao Shun and Qu Yi look at each other.

Then the two nod together.

"Then I will leave this to General Cao. We two will each lead a team of troops, directly surround Bo Cai below, so he cannot escape."

"Good!" Cao Cao nods and agrees: "The two generals just go, leave this to me."

After speaking, Gao Shun and Qu Yi don't talk nonsense.

They directly gather the 1,600 people who have not been used.

Each leads 800 people.

These 1,600 people, 800 per camp.

This is the real Trap-Breaking Camp and Vanguard Camp.

800 Vanguard Camp soldiers each hold a large halberd and carry a strong crossbow on their backs.

Qu Yi walks in the forefront holding a large halberd.

And on the other side, 800 Trap-Breaking Camp soldiers are all wearing iron armor, holding a knife in one hand and a shield in the other.

Gao Shun is also dressed the same.

The two lead the 800 people under their respective commands to bypass the frontal battlefield, and then directly kill from the left and right sides into the river channel, heading straight to Bo Cai's left, right, and rear.

Sun Jian, standing on the east bank, also sees this scene and infers the intention of the two.

This is clearly to snatch the achievement.

To solve Bo Cai before their main army arrives.

No, cannot sit and wait for death like this.

Sun Jian grinds his teeth and hardens his heart.

"The whole army dismount and fight."

The anxious Sun Jian shouts loudly.

Below is the river channel, the warhorses cannot pass at all.

Only by dismounting and fighting can it work.

After Sun Jian's order, the five hundred cavalry dismount one after another, and then hold long spears and kill towards the river channel.

For a time, the roads on Bo Cai's left, right, and rear are all blocked.

It's just that Bo Cai, who is in the chaotic army, does not notice this.

Still commanding his subordinates to impact the battlefield on the frontal riverbed.

Several miles away from the Xun River.

Han Dang leads several riders and runs out for several miles before meeting Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun coming head-on.

"Two generals, my Sima sent me to inform the two generals."

"At this time, Bo Cai's army is crossing the river at the Xun River."

"But I don't know where an army came from on the west bank of the Xun River, blocking the road for Bo Cai to go ashore, and is currently fighting with Bo Cai's army."

"My Sima said, please ask the two generals to go to support quickly, I am afraid that delay will lead to changes."
