Xiahou Lan hurriedly led his subordinates to follow behind Cao Ren, and when Zhao Yun ambushed the troops in front, he would attack from behind.

Zhang He saw that Cao Ren had abandoned Wanxian and fled, and hurriedly led his troops into the city.

The county officials and people of Wanxian County were treated violently by Cao Ren, and some people had already secretly discussed wanting to secretly welcome Li Xie's army to seize Wan, but before the plan was decided, Cao Ren ran away by himself.

Everyone had already heard that Li Xie's army was benevolent and righteous and did not harm the people, so after Cao Ren left, they stood at the gate of the city, waiting for Li Xie's men to come and occupy Wan County.

When Zhang He led his men and horses, he first saw many people outside the city and on the city wall, and thought that they were defending the city to meet the battle, and ordered the soldiers to prepare for battle.

When they came to the city, they realized that they were being greeted by the people outside the city gates.

After Zhang He led his troops into the city, he strictly ordered the soldiers not to infringe on the people, and sent people to Luyang to inform Zang Hong and ask him to lead the men and horses and the families of the army to Wanxian.

Cao Ren had abandoned Wanxian and left, and Luyang no longer needed to defend it, so Zang Hong led 3,000 men and horses and his family to Wanxian.

It is said that when Cao Ren crossed the river, he was afraid that he would be attacked by ambush soldiers while he was halfway crossing, so he first sent a small team to cross the river to investigate, and made sure that there were no ambushes nearby, so he crossed the river with all his men and horses.

After crossing the river, Niu Jin said to Cao Ren: "General, Li Xiezhi is trying to capture Wan County and attack Ye County, they definitely didn't expect the general to turn to Wuyin, when we kill Ye County, let General Zilian kill from the city again, and attack inside and outside, just rely on Li Xian's bandits, they can easily be defeated." Such a general is not only without fault, but may also be able to make great contributions. ”

Cao Ren didn't see it like Niu Jin: "Li Xian is not a mediocre talent, he didn't set up an ambush on the way to Wuyin, probably because they didn't have many troops, and they were scattered everywhere, and they didn't have troops to ambush us." Otherwise, with his stratagem, he will set up an ambush here, and we will surely be defeated. ”

"If Zhang Liao doesn't surrender, the general doesn't have to abandon Wanxian now, just wait for the army led by Duke Cao to come, and he can completely destroy Li Xian."

"Zhang Liao surrendered to Cao Gong so quickly, Cao Gong should have known that he was not loyal enough, and even let him command the troops to defend the county. Alas, let the brothers go faster and rush to Ye County early. ”

Niu Jin instructed the herald, "Let the teams march faster." ”

After crossing the river for about thirty miles, Cao Ren was basically sure that there would be no more ambushes, so he urged the march to be faster.

Zhao Yun said that it was an ambush, but in fact, he was just waiting for Cao Ren on the road.

This area is all plains, not only are there no mountains, but there is not even a large wood, and there is nowhere to hide if you want to ambush.

That's why he waited thirty miles away from the Shushui River, just to wait for work.

And when Cao Ren relaxed his vigilance, he suddenly appeared in front of him, which was a threat to them in itself.

When the cavalry reported that Cao Ren's men were coming, Zhao Yun ordered his men to prepare and crush the enemy with a single blow.

Zhao Yun also prepared more flags and war drums, making the illusion that there were tens of thousands of horses and horses, and gave the enemy a psychological deterrent.

When Cao Ren's men and horses appeared, Zhao Yun immediately ordered the war drums to sound in unison, and three thousand people shouted in unison, and the flag fluttered and attacked Cao Ren.

Cao Ren and Niu Jin were hurrying away, and when they were completely defenseless, suddenly the soldiers in front of them said that there were enemy troops in front of them. Cao Ren knew that Li Xian must have sent troops to intercept here, and said hurriedly: "Everyone rushes over, only by rushing over can there be a way to live." ”

However, the soldiers in front of them were already frightened by the enemy's position, and they retreated one after another, and also disrupted Cao Ren's Chinese soldiers and horses.

Cao Ren and Niu Jin couldn't stop drinking, so they could only slap their horses and rush forward.

When the soldiers saw that the general had already rushed forward, they had no choice but to rush forward as well.

Cao Ren shouted and rushed towards Zhao Yun with a big knife.

Zhao Yun took the lead, and also rushed to meet him, catching Cao Ren and fighting together.

The soldiers of the two armies also rushed to kill together, and in terms of morale, Zhao Yun's men and horses were ready to fight. Cao Ren's men and horses fled in a hurry, and relaxed that there were no ambushes, and because of the large number of Zhao Yun's banners and war drums, they couldn't figure out how many people and horses the enemy army had, and they were afraid in their hearts, and many people fled backwards.

Therefore, Zhao Yun's men and horses seemed to be chasing and killing Cao Jun, and Cao Ren's men ran backwards for less than a few miles before they met Xiahou Lan who was chasing after them.

There were enemy soldiers in front and behind, and the soldiers of Cao's army did not dare to fight anymore, thinking that they would definitely be defeated, and many of them abandoned their weapons and surrendered.

Cao Ren was not Zhao Yun's opponent in the first place, but he was stabbed in the left shoulder after more than ten rounds, and Niu Jin, who was fighting next to him, hurriedly slapped his horse and came to the rescue.

However, Niu Jingang slapped the horse closely, and was stabbed off the horse by Zhao Yun, and Zhao Yun's sergeant took advantage of the situation to behead him.

Cao Ren was frightened, and wanted to escape, but where could Zhao Yun allow him to escape, and at this moment, Cao Ren was surrounded by many Zhao Yun's soldiers, and he couldn't escape if he wanted to.

Zhao Yun stabbed Cao Ren with another shot, Cao Ren hurriedly blocked it with a knife, but Zhao Yun suddenly pulled back the gun and stabbed it again.

Cao Ren didn't have time to return to the knife to block, Zhao Yun's gun was too fast, he couldn't dodge even if he wanted to, he could only watch Zhao Yun's gun pierce into his chest.

He was still sitting firmly on his horse, staring at Zhao Yun with his eyes wide open, he didn't believe that he had been stabbed so quickly, but when he wanted to raise his knife and slash at Zhao Yun again, he found that he was no longer able to lift the knife.

Zhao Yun slammed his strength, poked forward again, and then forcefully pulled the gun back.

When the spear head was pulled out of Cao Ren's chest, blood gushed out with the spear head, and Cao Ren still stared wide-eyed and fell off the horse.

At this time, a soldier next to him rushed forward with an arrow, raised his knife and fell, cut off Cao Ren's head, and handed it to Zhao Yun.

Cao Ren and Niu Jin were both killed in battle, and those of the Cao army who were still resisting stubbornly at this time also threw down their weapons and surrendered on the ground.

After quickly cleaning up the battlefield, he counted the results of the battle, killed more than 1,800 enemies, captured more than 1,000 people, and suffered more than 300 casualties.

Zhao Yun asked Xiahou Lan to escort the captives back to Wanxian County, and he led his subordinates to carry the heads of Cao Ren and Niu Jin to Ye County.

When they arrived at Li Xian's camp outside Yexian County, the camp gate guard reported to the big tent, and Li Xian hurriedly led everyone out of the camp to greet him.

Zhao Yun saw that Li Xian personally came out of the camp to greet him, and hurriedly knelt down on one leg and said: "General, Yun has lived up to his mission, he has beheaded Cao Ren and completely destroyed Cao Ren's people." ”

The sergeant next to him handed over the head of Cao Ren wrapped in cloth, and Li Xian untied the cloth and glanced at it, confirming that it was Cao Ren.

His face was sad, and he seemed to be a little choked and said: "Cao Zixiao, I once fought against the bandits, fought the yellow scarf together, and fought side by side. It's a pity that he was brutal, slaughtered excessively, and killed many people in vain, which can be regarded as the retribution he deserves. ”

Fu Zhu said with some concern: "The general should give the head to Cao Hong at this time, so that he can retire early." It's just that...... Cao Ren's death, Cao Cao is afraid that he will come with a large army, and the general must be prepared for the enemy. ”

"Yes, Cao Ren is Cao Cao's younger brother and a general under Cao Cao, and his death will definitely attract Cao Cao's army." Zhang Liao also said beside him.

"Let's let Cao Hong withdraw first."

Li Xian sent people to send Cao Ren and Niu Jin's head to the gate of Ye County, and Cao Hong sent people into the city, and when he saw that it was Cao Ren's head, he cried loudly.

Yu Ban persuaded on the side: "General Zixiao is dead, we have to retreat to Kunyang first, wait for the army led by Duke Cao to conquer, and then avenge Zixiao." ”

Cao Hong felt that it was the same, so he led all the soldiers to retreat to Kunyang to garrison, and sent someone to send Cao Ren's head back to Xudu, begging Cao Cao to quickly raise troops to avenge Cao Ren's revenge.
