Chapter 1294: Attacking various commanderies and counties

"Report! My lord, we just scouted that Cao Cao has dispatched many troops to various commanderies and counties in Jingzhou, seemingly preparing to attack them!"

"What? Cao Cao actually dares to take the initiative to attack various commanderies and counties?"

Cao Cao's eyes flashed with cold, sharp light upon hearing the soldier's report.

He did not expect Cao Cao to be so stupid as to dispatch people to various commanderies and counties; it was simply seeking death!

However, a cold sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth; this time he would take the opportunity to wipe out all of Gu Yi's men and then kill them all.

"Good, since Cao Cao has delivered himself to our door, we will wipe him out completely!" Cao Cao said: "Have all the troops get ready, prepared to launch an attack at any time."

"Obey!" the soldier said, cupping his hands.

"Also, are our grain and supplies ready?" Cao Cao asked.

"My lord, please rest assured, all supplies are ready, and we are just waiting for your order!" the soldier said.

Cao Cao nodded and then ordered: "Then let's start the attack!"

"Yes!"

"Pass the order down: have all generals lead troops to attack various commanderies and counties!"

"Yes!" the soldier responded, cupping his hands.

"Remember! Our goal is to execute all the garrison troops in various commanderies and counties, not to break through their city walls!" Cao Cao said: "If anyone wants to block you, tell them I am the lord, and they must obey my command!"

"Obey!" the soldier responded, cupping his hands.

"Pass the order to various commanderies and counties: prepare to welcome Cao Cao's army's attack!"

Just as Cao Cao was preparing to launch an attack on various commanderies and counties, Gu Yi was leading his army to raid Cao Cao's main base.

Because Gu Yi's army encountered Cao Cao's army on the way, the two sides engaged in fierce slaughter, and both sides suffered very serious damage, losing over five thousand troops.

But Cao Cao's troop strength was far from Gu Yi's. Although Gu Yi's army suffered heavy losses, nearly two million troops survived.

Cao Cao was furious when he saw his army suffering heavy losses.

"Bastards!"

"To have such powerful strength!"

"This time I will absolutely not forgive you!"

"Pass the order down: the entire army is to head north at full speed, prepared to fight a decisive battle with this group of bandits!"

"Yes!"

Cao Cao's order was quickly delivered to the ears of various generals, and they were all very shocked.

Cao Cao actually wanted to launch an attack on Gu Yi's army?

"How is this possible!"

"Hasn't Cao Cao already surrendered? Why did he go back on his word?"

"I don't know! Could it be because Cao Cao knew we were going to launch an attack, so he wanted to run away?"

"Regardless, let's take action quickly and end the battle as soon as possible!"

Just as the various generals were discussing countermeasures, a report suddenly came from a soldier.

"Report! My lord, Cao Cao's army has arrived, and they are getting closer and closer. Now they are only fifty li away from us!"

"What!"

"Cao Cao's army has arrived at our rear!"

The expressions of the various generals turned iron-blue, and they reported the situation to Cao Cao one after another.

Cao Cao's expression became very ugly upon hearing the reports, his eyes full of anger.

"Damn it! They actually came!"

"I said it, that greedy and fearful Cao Cao certainly wouldn't dare to confront us head-on; it turns out he was afraid of our attack."

"Hmph! Now I want to see how you can withstand my attack!" ===== CHAPTER 1295 =====
