I didn't expect Ma Chao to have such a secret move! It seems that in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", there are also Zhang Fei and Sun Ce who can do sound wave skills! Sun Ce in the romance directly killed one of Liu Xuan's generals with a roar when he swept Jiangdong, so it seems that Sun Ce's attainments in sonic skills should be a little more powerful than Ma Chao, right? But the best is Zhang Fei, in the romance, he not only killed one or two Cao Cao's generals with his sonic skills, but also directly roared back millions of Cao Cao's troops! However, Liu Yu believes that Zhang Fei in this world definitely does not have the kind of ability that was legendary in later generations!

Maybe it was Ma Chao's understatement of killing that frightened Cao Jun, and the entire battlefield fell silent all of a sudden. Ma Chao casually threw the corpse on the tip of the gun to the ground, and then moved the gun back, and the ironclad heavy cavalry that cooperated with it immediately lined up and rushed over together.

The ironclad heavy cavalry is worthy of being the cavalry unit known as the world's first in attack power, although there are only 2,000 people, but it still messes up the morale of Cao Junchong. Seeing this situation, of course Liu Yu was about to fall into the ground, and with an order, more than 30,000 cavalry immediately followed Liu Yu to charge towards Cao's army.

It is undeniable that the Cao army is also powerful, although the formation was disrupted by the ironclad heavy cavalry, it was still barely able to resist Liu Yujun's attack, and was not defeated with one blow. However, Cao Jun's central-central command system was completely paralyzed, because Ma Chao was rushing towards Cao Cao's Chinese army with iron-armored heavy cavalry.

The horse was super brave and brave, and the ironclad heavy cavalry was fierce, and the Cao soldiers along the way couldn't resist it. Ma Chao was casually harvesting the lives of the enemy soldiers, and at the same time staring at Cao Cao with hateful eyes. shouted in his mouth: "Sons, see clearly, the one in the red robe in front of you is Cao Cao." Everyone is watching. Don't let that thief escape! ”

The iron-clad heavy rider suddenly agreed, and more than 4,000 sharp eyes suddenly focused on Cao Cao's body. Cao Cao, who had previously put on a confident and steady appearance like Mount Tai, finally couldn't sit still, and under the words of his relatives left and right, he retreated and took off the red brocade robe on his body for a personal entourage to take away.

Ma Chao saw Cao Cao's movements from afar, and immediately accelerated his speed, and shouted again: "Sons, pay attention." The person wearing the red robe is not necessarily Cao Cao, but the person with a long hair under the chin and a white horse under the crotch must be him! Let's hurry up, after destroying these local chickens and dogs that are blocking the way. Let's go and catch Cao Cao together. ”

Maybe it was Ma Chao's statement that hurt Cao Jun's self-esteem, or maybe it was Cao Jun who wanted their leader to escape safely, anyway, after Ma Chao finished speaking, the resistance of him and the ironclad heavy cavalry increased greatly. Its progress had to slow down.

Can be both. This Ma Chao's shout also made Cao Cao, who was on the run, even more panicked, and even pulled out a knife to cut off his one-foot-long hair. Not only that, but he also exchanged horses with his retinue, allowing him to escape on his original white horse.

At this time, the ironclad heavy cavalry helped Ma Chao block those Cao soldiers who wanted to entangle him, so that he could get out and chase Cao Cao. It may be that he was busy killing the enemy just now and didn't notice Cao Cao's movements, Ma Chao went directly to chase after the person riding the white horse.

Liu Yu saw it clearly in the back, and immediately shouted: "Cao Cao has changed his face and gone west, and the one with a short beard under his chin and a dark horse under his crotch is a Cao thief." ”

I probably heard that it was Liu Yu's voice. Ma Chao pulled out his horse without hesitation and turned around, galloping in the direction that Liu Yu said. And Liu Yu's roar that resounded throughout the audience naturally made Cao Cao hear it too. He was extremely mentally retarded and tore off a flag horn and wrapped it around his head. His out-of-the-box outfit naturally made Ma Chao notice him quickly, and immediately chased after him.

The Ma family has been based in Liangzhou for more than 200 years, most of the horse sources in Liangzhou are in the hands of the Wanmatang controlled by their family, and those top good horses who "travel thousands of miles in a day and travel eight hundred at night" are also very many in their family, and the war horse called "Dark Cloud Treading Snow" that Ma Chao rode under his crotch at this time is one of them, and its speed is by no means comparable to the war horse after Cao Cao's transfer.

The distance between the two is gradually narrowing, but Ma Chao is still not satisfied. He took out an iron-tired bow and shot it at Cao Cao. Liu Yu didn't know if he was not good at archery, or if he did it intentionally, and the sharp arrow that broke through the air only hit the butt of the horse that Cao Cao was riding. Although Cao Cao was thrown to the ground by a standing horse, he was not injured.

Cao Cao turned around and saw Ma Chao coming with a gun, and immediately panicked, and the relatives around him who had seen Ma Chao's bravery did not dare to stop him, so they all scattered in a hurry and fled for their lives.

At this moment, Liu Yu really felt sad for Cao Cao! As a generation of heroes, there is no loyal servant around him who can die for him, how sad and lamentable! And with his lame martial arts, he didn't leave a few master guards by his side, which is also very puzzling!

Seeing Cao Cao fall off the horse, Ma Chao laughed wildly and said: "Cao thief, you also have today!" As he spoke, he poked Cao Cao's thigh with a gun, and it seemed that he was determined to capture Cao Cao alive.

Although Cao Cao's martial arts are lame in Liu Yu's eyes, he is the double head of the Cao family and the Xiahou family after all, and he always has a skill. At the same time as Ma Chao poked the gun, he waved the horse whip in his hand and rolled it, and how to entangle the steel gun.

Taking advantage of Ma Chao's shock and falling off the whip, Cao Cao ran away. He also knew that two legs couldn't outrun four legs, so he just ran towards a big tree. Ma Chao followed behind him with a sinister smile and poked out a shot. Cao Cao listened to the wind and debated, and flashed sideways. Ma Chao, on the other hand, was unable to retract because of his excessive force, so he was stuck in a tree with one shot, and even the head of the spear was completely embedded in the trunk of the tree.

Just when Ma Chao drew his gun and Cao Cao flashed again, a burly, bearded general of the Cao army galloped over. He also shouted: "Ma boy is not hurting my lord, your grandfather Cao Hong is here!" This person is one of the few masters in the Cao army, Cao Cao's brother, and Cao Hong, the eighth of the top ten swordsmen list.

Cao Cao was overjoyed when he saw this, and immediately rushed towards him. Cao Hong didn't say much after receiving Cao Cao, gave up his mount to him, and let him go first, while he held a knife to meet Ma Chao, who came on horseback.

Cao Hong used a large horse knife that was suitable for horses and steps. He slashed his sword and easily dissolved the nineteen bullet shadows that Ma Chao poked out of the air. Ma Chao glanced at Cao Cao, who had already run away, hatefully, and then shook the steel gun. poured out the essence of the "Wind Marksmanship" towards Cao Hong, a roadblocker.

Cao Hong did not hesitate, dodged in, the knife was like rain, his figure was like the wind, and the attack was as sharp as thunder and lightning. It's only been a few rounds, and Ma Chao has been forced to be a little scrambling.

It seems that Cao Hong has a lot of fighting experience, and he knows that he will suffer some losses in attacking the horse with steps. So he didn't fight Ma Chao head-on at all, and only used his fluttering body and small moves to fight with Ma Chao. However, he obviously underestimated Ma Chao, and also underestimated the Ma family's "wind marksmanship". In the squall. What is there to float freely?

Sure enough, Ma Chao stabilized his position after the initial chaos, and then shot into a torrential rain, bringing a gust of wind to bloom on all sides. Cao Hong, who circled around Ma Chao with a small and labor-saving body, suddenly stumbled. He had just been momentarily surprised. Ma Chao's point steel gun followed closely, and flashed out like a snake!

Cao Hong couldn't dodge, so he had to resist hard, the big horse knife flew and slashed, and in an endless dinging sound, Cao Hong involuntarily took a few steps back, and squirted a mouthful of blood with a "poof".

What's going on? Cao Hongke is also a top general at the top of the human rank, how could he be beaten by the frontal blow of Ma Chao at the bottom of the ground level and vomit blood? Liu Yu was very puzzled by this. But when he saw Ma Chao's pale face and a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth. He naturally knew the reason, and these two people were desperately trying their best just now!

At this time, Xiahou Dun, who was known as the first general under Cao Cao's command and had the strength of the middle rank of the ground level, also arrived there with more than 100 elite horsemen. Liu Yu was afraid that Ma Chao, who had been injured a little, would ride for him, and was about to ride his horse to help, but Ma Chao had already pulled his horse back. It seems that he is still calm and not carried away by hatred.

The commander in charge of the army had fled, and the Cao army, whose morale had plummeted, was naturally defeated and retreated by Liu Yu's army, and finally almost completely annihilated the 20,000 Cao troops who went out to meet the battle. Although the 20,000 troops are not in Liu Yu's eyes, this is already one-tenth of Cao Cao's troops, and they are all elite soldiers, I believe that Cao Cao will definitely suffer for a while!

When he returned to the camp for the celebration, Liu Yu noticed that Ma Chao's face was not very good, which was definitely not the performance after being injured, but the characteristic of depression. He couldn't help but ask with concern, "Meng Qi, what's wrong with you?" If you don't feel well, go back to your tent and rest! On such a formal occasion, of course, Liu Yu can no longer call a "nephew".

Ma Chao shook his head, suddenly stood up and walked to the middle of the big tent, knelt on the ground and said, "Lord Wang, please punish Weichen." His words suddenly calmed down the big tent full of laughter and laughter, and the generals under Liu Yu all looked at him with puzzled faces, and only the faces of individual people had a sudden look.

Liu Yu also understood a little bit where Ma Chao's "sin" came from, but he was silent, and after seeing the expressions of everyone in the tent, he asked lightly: "Oh, what did you do wrong to ask this king to punish you?" ”

Ma Chao raised his head and said bravely: "On the battlefield today, Weichen had the opportunity to put Cao Cao to death, but because Weichen was bent on capturing him alive, he finally let him find an opportunity to run away. Weichen delayed the prince's major affairs for his own selfishness, so he also asked the prince to cure Weichen's crimes! ”

Ma Chao's words made everyone in the tent stunned, they naturally knew how serious this matter was, and they didn't know how to excuse it for a while. Even Ma Dai and the others looked panicked and muttered speechless.

Liu Yu pondered for a while, and the atmosphere in the tent suddenly became depressed. Just when some people were about to sacrifice themselves for Ma Chao to intercede, Liu Yu suddenly laughed: "Why should I blame you? If you want to capture Cao Cao alive, you just want to sacrifice him alive in front of your father's grave. This is your filial piety! As for letting Cao Cao run away, it was also his life. God spared him his life just because he wanted us to defeat him on the battlefield with dignity. Anyway, Cao Cao will die in the end, what does it matter if he dies one day early and dies one day later! ”

Liu Yu This is not only an explanation, but also an encouraging word, which makes the atmosphere in the tent lively again. Everyone said that they would definitely defeat Cao Cao as soon as possible.

Ma Chao seemed to be a little unable to let go, he opened his mouth to speak, but was stopped by Liu Yu: "Meng Qi, your performance today is good, not only played the prestige of our army, but also made Cao Cao flee from the wind, I also made a poem for you here!" ”

Zhuge Jin, who is very fond of poetry, said with a smile: "The song "Gongsun Beauty Dancing Sword Song" made by the prince for Mrs. Ting has spread all over the north and south of the river, inside and outside the Central Plains, and it can be said that everyone praises it. It's a pity that the prince was busy later. There are no more masterpieces in the world, and today the ministers can finally feast their ears again! ”

Zhuge Jin said that Liu Yu was a little embarrassed to speak, but in his eyes full of hope. Liu Yu had no choice but to bite the bullet and say: "Tongguan was defeated and fled in anticipation, and Cao Cao took off his red robe in panic. The knife should be sad to cut the long hair, and the price of horse ultrasound is sky-high. ”

Zhuge Jin frowned imperceptibly, and said: "Although this poem is far inferior to "Gongsun Beauty Dancing Sword Song" in terms of artistic conception and diction, it is also straightforward and popular......"

Zhuge Jin's words made Liu Yu sweat in his heart, "Gongsun Beauty Dancing Sword Song" was made by Liu Yu in imitation of Du Fu's "Watching Gongsun Auntie's Disciples Dance Sword Weapons". Who is Du Fu, that is a famous poet who has been passed down through the ages. How can his masterpiece be compared with the limerick poem written by Luo Guanzhong? !

However, those generals and Zhuge Jin had different opinions, and they admired Liu Yu's poem very much. What's more, because Liu Yu mentioned Ma Chao in the poem, they all showed envy and jealousy towards him. Even Zhao Yun, who was always calm, had a trace of fluctuation in his eyes.

Liu Yu couldn't sit still, not because he was afraid of reciting a few more limerick poems, but because he was afraid that the limerick poems he recited would hit Zhuge Jin, who seemed to admire his poetry very much. So, Liu Yu let everyone take care of themselves. He ran back to his tent as if he were fleeing.

The next few days. Cao Cao stuck to the city pass, and did not fight despite all kinds of insults from Ma Chao, Huang Xu and others. The terrain of Tongguan is long and narrow, and if you want to attack strongly, the casualties will be large, so Liu Yu has never given such an order.

Just when Liu Yu was a little at a loss, Zhao Yun came up with an idea for Liu Yu: "Lord Wang, Weichen heard that there is a ferry sixty miles away from here, called 'Pu Hanjin'. Now Cao's army is all gathered on Tongguan. There will be no defense. Wei Chen was willing to lead an army to cross the Wei River from there and cut off the back road of Cao's army. Make it a lonely danger. ”

Liu Yu thought about it for a while and agreed to his suggestion, being idle anyway, so Zhao Yun led 20,000 horses north to Puhanjin that night.

###########################################################

"Report to the prince, General Zhao was defeated by Cao's army, and is currently leading the remnants of the army to Dazhai." I originally wanted to wait for Zhao Yun's good news, but who knew that it was such an unpleasant result.

"Lord Wang, Weichen is detrimental to the prestige of the prince's army, please punish Weichen." finally waited for Zhao Yun back, but he didn't tell Liu Yu the details, and only blindly asked for guilt.

"Okay, don't be too busy pleading, tell me the details of what happened."

"Yes, lord." Zhao Yun's face was full of self-reproach, and he said in a low tone: "After the criminal minister led the troops to Puhanjin, in order to cross the river and set up a village before Cao Jun made a detailed discovery, he immediately arranged a boat raft to prepare to cross the river. But who knew that Cao's army had already laid an ambush, and as soon as the vanguard of our army landed on the shore, they were immediately hit by arrows......"

Liu Yu frowned and interrupted him: "You are also a person who is familiar with the art of war, why did you forget the key of 'being able to attack in half a cross'?" ”

"Before the army crossed the river, the criminal sent a team of 100 people to cross the river to explore the way, but he didn't want them to be taken down by Cao's army in the woods, and it was too late to signal that there was danger. And after Cao Jun killed this hundred-man team, he also put on their clothes to confuse the criminals, so that the criminals thought that they could cross the river safely......"

"How do you bring the soldiers, do you need to be together to explore the path? I don't know if I left some of it by the river in case something happens! You are really, you should agree with the centurion on a code that only the two of you know, so that if something happens in time, you can also detect it, and you don't have to be so stupid to be deceived! There was a hint of dissatisfaction in Liu Yu's tone.

Zhao Yun's face was covered with a blush of shame, and he was speechless. Liu Yu has always been very satisfied with this apprentice, so he didn't want to blame him more, so he changed the topic and said, "Who is the commander of the Cao army who sniped you this time?" ”

Zhao Yun's handsome face twitched, and a fierce glint flashed in his eyes: "It is Cao Cao himself who commands Cao Jun." ”

Looking at the undisguised hatred on Zhao Yun's face, Liu Yu sighed silently and asked, "How much is the loss of our army?" ”

Zhao Yun buried his head, and his voice revealed grief: "Because of Cao Jun's attack, my army was caught off guard. So nearly two thousand people were shot dead. In addition, the rafts on which our troops were traveling were too small, and many people fell into the river in a panic, and more than 5,000 drowned and went missing. There are less than 13,000 people who can return to Dazhai with the criminals! ”

This number made Liu Yu feel a little heartache. You must know that he has always avoided Liu Yujun's large casualties, otherwise he would not have attacked Tongguan. But now, a battle to cross the river has caused him to lose 7,000 good men for no apparent reason......

Taking a deep breath, Liu Yu asked hopefully, "How much did Cao Jun lose?" ”

Zhao Yun's body was shocked, and he said without raising his head: "The Cao army has not been in close contact with our army, and has been attacking with arrows, and our army has not been able to organize an effective counterattack. Therefore, Cao Jun's losses can be said to be minimal! ”

I didn't expect my 7,000 good men to die in vain, and there were few people who got their books back! Liu Yu closed his eyes and took a deep breath again, then opened his eyes and said slowly: "As the saying goes." 'Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers', and you don't have to worry too much about it. However, you must engrave this hatred in your heart, and if you have the opportunity, you will report it back on Cao Jun! ”

Zhao Yun nodded vigorously. Said word by word: "Please rest assured." The sinner will definitely make Cao Jun pay for this! ”

"Okay, you step back first, don't blame yourself for this matter, you have to learn a lesson in the future, and atone for your sins as soon as possible!"

After Zhao Yun retreated, Liu Yu couldn't help but give an order to urgently transfer the "Baibo Battalion" of the Yellow River Water Army, which had been cultivated in Qingzhou, to participate in the battle here. It is believed that with the trebuchet on their ship, Cao Jun's arrows will be suppressed and inactive.

In the continued stalemate between Liu Yu and Cao Jun. Ren Hongchang gave Liu Yu a piece of information from Jinyiwei, which said that Cao Cao secretly led a part of the army to leave Tongguan.

"How could Cao Cao lead his troops away at such an important moment? Is he so sure that I can't break through the Tong Pass? Will it be held back? Jinyiwei is really, why don't you investigate the details clearly? Liu Yu complained with some dissatisfaction.

Liu Xuan smiled slightly and explained: "It's only been how long Jinyiwei has been established, it's already very good to have the current achievements, husband, don't be too harsh!" ”

Liu Yu still said with some difficulty: "Xu'er, don't you feel strange about Cao Cao's abnormal behavior? If I don't figure this out, I'll have trouble sleeping! ”

"Whether you have this thing or not, you can't sleep!" Cai Yan pouted and said softly: "Whether it's eating or sleeping, have you been honest and quiet?" Either they use obscene language to tease us, or they bully us with their hands......"

Cai Yan's words made Liu Yu and the others blush, and Liu Yu was embarrassed and speechless, so he could only glare at this little woman who didn't care fiercely.

At this time, Liu Yu's most intimate Zou Zhiruo spoke out to relieve Liu Yu: "Husband, although Jinyiwei can't find anything, it doesn't mean that Xingchanglong Trading Company and Xinghua Society can't find anything!" These two organizations have been established for more than ten years, and the breadth and rigor of their intelligence networks are not comparable to Jinyiwei, and I believe they will definitely gain something from this matter! ”

Zou Zhiruo's words made Liu Yumao pause, he happily pulled her into his arms, kissed her fiercely on the pretty face, and then asked: "Hongchang, when you were sorting out the information, did you notice the news related to this matter?" ”

Ren Hongchang thought for a moment before nodding and saying, "Yes." According to the Xinghua News Agency, the battle situation in Hanzhong was very unfavorable to Cao's army, and Xiahou Yuan had no choice but to ask Cao Cao for reinforcements. Maybe Cao Cao led his troops out of Tongguan for this reason, right?! ”

"Even if that's the case, Cao Cao doesn't have to go out in person?" Liu Yu asked suspiciously.

"It is said that Zhang Lu has a very powerful strategist named Yan Pu. This number of calculations made Xiahou Yuan lose his troops and generals, and it was almost impossible to move an inch. Therefore, those who are as conceited as Xiahou Yuan should also ask Cao Cao for a powerful military advisor. Ren Hongchang stretched out his hand to stop Liu Yu, who wanted to speak, and continued: "Cao Cao's army originally had two very powerful military advisors, but the right army division Xu Yu was still in Liangzhou to clear the remnants of the Ma family and beware of the invasion of the Qiang people. And the left military division Xi Zhicai couldn't travel at all because of physical reasons, so he could only stay at home in Chang'an to recuperate. Therefore, Cao Cao, as one of the three wise men of Cao Jun, had to go out in person! (To be continued.) )
