Inside the Zhou army camp.

Zhou Cheng was in the camp, watching the news from the scouts.

Sun Jian set out from several counties in Dongping State, and then gathered in Jishui.

More than 20,000 people gave up defending the city

"What a Jiangdong Tiger, I underestimated him."

Zhou Cheng snorted coldly, and then said:"Jun Yi!"

Zhang He stood up and stood up.

Zhou Cheng said:"Lead the 3,000 Dawn Cavalry and 10,000 Xianbei Cavalry. Chase them quickly!"

"Here!"After Zhang He received the order, he immediately left the camp.

Counting Zhao Yun's troops who were already pursuing, they have now sent more than 20,000 cavalry.

Sun Jian's troops were mainly infantry.

And Sun Jian was also very smart. He did not take the main road. Instead, he specifically chose the direction of the mountains and forests and used the terrain to deal with Zhou Cheng's cavalry.

Guo Jia stood up and said:"My lord, Sun Wentai is a very human being. If we can't stop him in Henan, he will threaten us when he goes north." The rear of the army."

Zhou Cheng also knew the seriousness of the matter.

Li Ru stood up and said,"My lord, you can order Yecheng to organize a garrison, set up defenses on the north bank of the Yellow River, and patrol the river bank day and night. Jia

Xu also stood up and said:"My lord, Sun Wentai wants to imitate my lord and go north, disrupting my lord's roots. If he crosses the river and goes north, he will definitely go to Zhenliao.""

Zhenliao City is Zhou Cheng's largest granary.

If something happens to Zhenliao City, the north will fall into a food crisis.

Once there is a shortage of food, the north will be in chaos.

Zhou Cheng said:"Wenyuan!"

Zhang Liao also stood up.

Zhou Cheng said:"You quickly lead the Huben camp of 3,000 and the Xianbei cavalry of 10,000 to pursue Sun Wentai!"

In order to intercept Sun Jian, Zhou Cheng mobilized 30,000 cavalry.

From a strategic perspective, Sun Jian has succeeded.

At least he has successfully contained Zhou Cheng's 30,000 cavalry.

……

January 201 AD.

In the mountain forest under the wind and snow, Sergeant Jiangdong held his arms tightly and marched hard in the snow.

Sun Jian was riding on his horse, watching the soldiers in the rear.

It was freezing cold, and the children of Jiangdong had only thin clothes.

Moreover, Sun Jian knew that Zhou Cheng would definitely send heavy troops.

Therefore, there is no stopping.

Sun Jian got off the horse and handed the horse to the guard. Then he shouted to the soldiers:"Run with me!" He started running to warm up his body.

You won’t feel cold when you’re hot!

Moreover, Sun Jian set an example, and Jiangdong soldiers naturally followed.

In the snow, facing the cold wind in the mountains and forests, Jiang Dongjun seemed to have forgotten the cold

……

At the same time, Zhao Yun led the cavalry and was chasing Sun Jian from behind.

The mountains and forests are not conducive to cavalry maneuvers, and there is also the worry of Sun Jian setting up an ambush. Therefore, Zhao Yun appears to be particularly cautious.

In this regard, Pang Tong had no better way.

However, the footprints in the snow told Zhao Yun and others that Sun Jianjun had not gone far.

In the mountains and forests, the scouts from the Qingqi Battalion were also tracking Sun Jian.

However, they did not dare to get too close, lest they be discovered by the scouts sent by Sun Jian.

……

January 201 AD.

Cao Cao braved the wind and snow and led more than 6,000 cavalry from Chenliu. As soon as the cavalry left the city, they were discovered by the scouts of the Qingqi Battalion.

The scouts rushed back quickly to report Zhou Cheng.

Zhou Cheng personally led 20,000 cavalry out of the camp.

Strategically, defeat Sun Jian first, which would damage the morale of the coalition forces.

In terms of personal wishes, Zhou Cheng is more willing to destroy Cao Cao first.

Cao Cao was also very cautious. When he left the city this time, he also sent out scouts to search for the location of the Zhou army to avoid a surprise attack and being intercepted by the Zhou army.

This time of caution, Cao Cao learned that a large group of Zhou army cavalry was running towards him.

Moreover, among them were Zhou Wu soldiers, the most elite soldiers of the Zhou army.

According to the reports from the scouts, this group of Zhou soldiers was quite numerous.

Such a large number can only prove one thing.

It was Zhou Cheng who personally led this cavalry.

"My lord, it is not appropriate to confront the Zhou thief head-on."

"Lord, avoid its sharp edges!"

"Lord, move quickly."

Before the encounter, Cao Hong and others were persuading Cao Cao to retreat as soon as possible.

Six thousand against twenty thousand meant that they were at an absolute disadvantage in terms of numbers.

Moreover, the Zhou army's cavalry were very elite, and the Zhou soldiers were even more elite among the elite.

And with Zhou Cheng personally commanding him, with the morale so high, it would be impossible to defeat him.

"Come with me!"

Cao Cao was not so reckless. He knew he could not defeat Zhou Cheng, but he had his own purpose in leaving the city this time.

Xiahou Dun and Xia Houyuan had already led their troops and horses and quietly left the city. Cao Cao's purpose was to attract Zhou Cheng's attention.

Although he didn't know why Zhou Cheng was targeting him so much, Cao Cao knew that as soon as he appeared, Zhou Cheng would pounce on him and try to kill him.

Cao Cao's army quickly turned around.

This scene was also discovered by the Zhou army's scouts, and they quickly reported to Zhou become

"What? No return trip?"

Zhou Cheng frowned. Cao Cao didn't return to the city. Where was he going?

Jia Xu hurriedly said:"My lord, it is not appropriate to pursue rashly, and do not underestimate Cao Mengde."

"Explore again."Zhou Cheng really didn't underestimate Cao Cao, so he continued to send out scouts.
