The weather is cold, the cold north wind blows on the people's faces, Liao Hua with his 10,000 horses, gradually approached the Yanling territory, the army has been marching for three days and three nights, really tired, Liao Hua did not know that whether it was Zhou Cang or Cao Ren's men and horses have left the Changshe, he also considered to keep his men and horses able to fight quickly before arriving at the Changshe, so it is necessary to have a proper rest.

"Brother, why don't we go into the city to rest, in that case, even if we encounter an enemy attack, we won't mess up?" Liao Qing let out a long sigh of white air, stomped his feet to warm himself, and asked Liao Hua for some reason.

Why not use the wooden kite to rescue the trapped Lu Bu from Xiapi!

And the only one who can successfully carry out this task is Chen Dao, the elite of Hawkeye is in Chen Zhi's hands, if the strength of these Hawkeye elites is gathered, it should be possible to rescue Lu Bu and more people.

It's just that in this way, the newly formed Hawkeye troops are likely to be lost, and is it worth exchanging so many men and horses for Lu Bu's life?

Looking at the letterhead in front of him, Gao Yi was trembling slightly with a brush dipped in ink.

"Someone, quickly send this letter to General Chen Zhi, there must be no mistake!"

At this time, the Changshe, Zhou Cang's army was fighting with Cao Ren's army, and now in the entire western part of Yanzhou, only Cao Ren was left with a resistance force, Chen Liu and Chen Guo's successive falls, which greatly hit the morale of Cao Ren's army, Cao Ren knew that he couldn't last long, but he knew that once he gave up resistance, Xu Du behind him would fall into the hands of the Gao family's army, so he would never allow this to happen.

"General, Zhou Cangjun has withdrawn!"

Tanma rushed to report to Cao Ren, but Cao Ren was a little surprised: "Zhou Cang's army didn't fall behind at all just now, why did they choose to retreat? Could it be that there is some conspiracy that cannot be achieved?"

As soon as the words fell, another Tanma hurriedly came: "General Qiyu, I just got reliable information, the enemy Liao Hua and Li Tong have completely captured the southern part of Chen Liu and the western part of Chen Guo, each with 10,000 horses and horses to Changshe, the northern part of Chen Liu was also captured by Gao Yi himself, and the nearly 10,000 people left behind by our army and Yuan Shao's 20,000 reinforcements were all defeated, Lord Cheng Yu was forced to give up Pingqiu, withdraw his troops to Dingtao, he asked someone to bring a secret letter to the general, let the general open it again when he had to do so!"

Cao Ren took the secret letter and wanted to open it now, but after thinking about it, he put it away again, and said to the people around him: "Zhou Cang's retreat is probably because Liao Hua and Li Tong want to come to Changshe, they want to fight three to one, lure me to attack, I am not so stupid, but Liao Hua, I heard that Zihe died at his hands, I must personally kill him to avenge Zihe!"

As he spoke, Cao Ren sonorously, pulled out the dagger on his waist, and planted it on the flag of Liaohua's army on the map.

"Click", Liao Hua, who was marching towards Changshe quickly, was attracted by the sound of the flag breaking behind him, he looked back, and saw that his flag had fallen to the ground and was trampled by several war horses, so he stopped the army's advance, ordered his soldiers to pick up the flag, stroked it distressedly, and said strangely: "It's really strange, obviously there is no strong wind, but the flag is broken, will something bad happen?"

This is Liao Qing also riding a horse over, seeing this scene and smiled: "Didn't my brother never believe in these nonsense? Why did you suddenly believe it today?"

Liao Hua smiled: "How can I say that I believe this, as far as you talk the most, we rushed to kill all the way, which time was not the ghost gate pass Huangquan Road rolling, not unharmed, now there is only one Cao Ren left, and there are two ways of Zhou Cang and Li Tong to attack, plus Xu has our own internal response, it is not easy to take Cao Ren's life?"

After saying that, Liao Hua beckoned: "Continue to march, before dark, you must rush to Changshe!"

At this time, Zhou Cang had ordered the army to withdraw to the north of Changshe, and seeing that Cao Renjun did not follow him, he couldn't help but be a little strange, so he ordered Tan Ma to go to investigate, and after a while, Tan Ma returned to report that Cao Ren only ordered people to strengthen the camp defense, and there was no intention of retreating without marching, which made Zhou Cang more suspicious.

"Didn't Cao Ren receive the news that we already have two reinforcements on the way?" Zhou Cang took the water bag from the soldier's hand and took a few sips, his Adam's apple shaking up and down rapidly.

Deputy generals Huang Shao and He Yi shook their heads: "This is impossible, our people personally watched the news spread into Cao Ren's army, and they didn't think that it didn't seem to have any effect at all, maybe Cao Ren guessed that this was fake news that we were walking!"

Zhou Cang walked around a little anxiously: "But he will definitely send a detective horse to confirm, it is impossible for him to be indifferent!"

"Are those generals sure they weren't confused by Cao Ren?"

Suddenly, a voice came from afar, Zhou Cang and others followed the reputation, only to see outside the gate, galloping and riding a few horses, the leader was Xu Rong, who was ordered to guard the defense of Xinzheng City.

"General Xu Rong, why are you here?" Zhou Cang looked at Xu Rong in front of him very unexpectedly, with a little embarrassment on his face, after all, in the few years that Xu Rong had been imprisoned in Songshan before, he had made Xu Rong suffer.

Xu Rong was completely ignorant of Zhou Cang's embarrassment, and stepped forward to answer everyone's doubts: "Cao Ren's current situation, if he moves, he will live, and if he doesn't move, he will die, so he must have moved, but he just deceived us!"

Huang Shao and He Yi glanced at each other together: "I don't understand, General Xu Rong, if you have something to say, just say it!"

Xu Rong smiled mysteriously, and pulled out his sword with a sonorous sound, everyone was taken aback, but they didn't expect that Xu Rong just drew a simple schematic diagram on the ground with the tip of his sword: "This is where we are, this is where Cao Ren is, we are semi-surrounded by Liao Hua and Li Tong to attack Cao Ren, if the generals are Cao Ren himself, how will they act?"

Zhou Cang didn't think about it, so he blurted out: "Outnumbered, or retreat to Xudu, or flee to Runan, and join Cao Cao's main force through Peiguo!"

Huang Shao and He Yi followed: "However, Cao Ren must not know, Mr. Xun Yu is our biggest internal response, if he really retreats into Xudu, he will definitely be killed by random arrows at the city gate, if he flees to Runan, we also have time to inform General Chen Zhi, who is in Huainan at this time, to lead his troops to block the border with Huainan and Peiguo!"

Xu Rong shook his head: "It's not that simple, since the lord arranged for General Li Tong to attack Chen State first, and General Chen Zhi to attack Huainan next, the intention must be to let General Li Tong go west to surround Xudu after they complete this combat mission, and General Chen Zhi will go north to meet Xuzhou, there is absolutely no reason to remobilize our army in the Huainan region to the west of Daoxi, so as to give Chen Deng in Guangling and Cao Cao's army in Xuzhou besieging Lu Bu an opportunity, even if it is to annihilate Cao Cao's general Cao Ren!"

Huang Shao and He Yi were a little confused: "It's as if the lord has discussed everything with you, you are so powerful, will you be defeated in the hands of the lord?"

"Ahem-" Zhou Cang coughed heavily a few times and glared at the two, and Huang Shao and He Yi immediately shut up.

"Hehe, now that we are all comrades-in-arms in the same camp, we won't mention anything before!" A trace of unnaturalness flashed on Xu Rong's face, which quickly disappeared, he cleared his throat and said seriously, "The topic is a bit far, I mean to say, haven't the generals thought that in the face of our army's flanking attack, if Cao Ren does not choose to retreat but advances, then who will he attack the most?"

Zhou Cang immediately came to his senses: "Calculating the distance, only Liao Hua and Cao Ren are close, can it be said-"

"Report-" Before Zhou Cang finished speaking, he was interrupted by the sound of a galloping horse, "General Qiqi, it turns out that Cao Ren's camp in Changshe is just a false flag, and the main force is gone!"

"What!" Zhou Cang was taken aback and glanced at Xu Rong incredulously, "It seems that it was a mistake to attack Cao Ren this time and not let General Xu Rong come with him!"

Xu Rong smiled slightly: "It's not too late to bring it now!"

Huang Shao and He Yi were still confused: "Cao Ren is gone, how can he fight?"

"Stupid!" Zhou Cang glared at the two of them angrily, Xu Rong had been talking in vain for a long time, it was really incorrigible, "Cao Ren is going to Liao Huajun, just find Liao Huajun!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Huang Shao and He Yi smiled embarrassedly, but they both secretly gave Xu Rong a thumbs up.

Xu Rong turned a blind eye, and with a sonorous sound, he pointed the tip of his sword at the location of Yan Ling on the ground: "According to the speed of the march, General Liao Hua's men and horses should have arrived at Yan Ling!"

Zhou Cang will no longer have any doubts about Xu Rong's ability and loyalty: "Okay, let's go to Yanling!"

Sure enough, Cao Ren took all the 30,000 horses of Changshe at this moment, and marched towards Yanling in a hurry, he understood that Zhou Cang's retreat from Changshe was to lead himself out of the favorable terrain, and Li Tong's 10,000 horses Although the combat effectiveness was not very good, but Cao Ren went to attack a little reluctant, counting only Liaohua 10,000 people, Cao Ren was close and had a numerical advantage.

The most important thing is that Cao Ren wants to avenge the dead Cao Chun!

"I heard that Zhou Cang left the very powerful Xu Rong in Xinzheng Shoucheng this time, fortunately, our plan, if Xu Rong is here, it will definitely be discovered, I guess it must be because Xu Rong has just defected to the Gao family army and is not trusted by the generals of the Gao family army!"

Cao Ren rode on top of the galloping mount, thinking with some luck that this Xu Rong had made the Cao Jun soldiers suffer a lot a few years ago, it was like a nightmare.

And now, he, Cao Ren, is also going to create a nightmare for Gao Jiajun!
