Chapter 377 A Glimmer of Hope

Cao Cao suffered repeated ambushes, and his massive army of fifty thousand was left scattered and broken, fleeing for their lives in disarray.

Just as Jia Xu had estimated, Guo Jia, Li Youu, and Liu Ye each seized the best chance to ambush without any intel, nearly routing the Cao Army every time.

Unfortunately, for all of Jia Xu's calculations, he had not accounted for Cheng Yu's spiritual talent, which bolstered resistance, endurance, and adaptability. Despite the continuous ambushes, the Cao Army barely maintained its organization under the support of Cheng Yu's spiritual talent.

After Taishi Ci and Gan Ning were held by the Xiahou Brothers, Cao Cao, together with Xun Youi and Cheng Yu, fought desperately towards the direction of Pengcheng.

"Lord, I'm afraid it won't be easy for us to return to Yanzhou this time." After successive ambushes, the entire troop was exhausted, but under extreme pressure, Xun Youi's mind became clear instead of descending into panic and confusion.
