Outside the camp in Zhengrong Valley, Cao Hongzheng led the army to call for battle outside the camp, but saw that the opposite gate was wide open, and Zhang He led 5,000 elite soldiers out of the camp and lined up outside the camp, far away from Cao's army.

"Who was I at that time, it turned out to be the general of the defeated army!" Cao Hong couldn't help laughing when he saw Zhang He's banner, and immediately rode out of the battle, came to the front of the two armies, and shouted in the direction of Zhang He: "I have heard for a long time that Chen Mo has been fighting in the north for many years, and the fierce generals under his command are like clouds, and now he has not only sent a general out, but also a general of the defeated army. ”

Zhang He compared the distance between the two sides, this distance, even if ten thousand arrows were fired, could not hurt Cao Hong, and then rode out of the battle, and said loudly: "It is because I am the general of the defeated army, the lord let me come, Cao Cao was defeated in Guandu first, and then defeated in Suiyang, all the way to Qingzhou, panicking like a lost dog, and now it is difficult to dare to fight with our army, if you send a general out, my lord is afraid that you will not even dare to fight, and you will run directly in a hurry!" ”

Cao Hong smiled: "Zhang Junyi, you can't fight, but you have developed a good tongue, you won't always beg for mercy, right?" ”

"Whether it's okay or not, it depends on who you compare with, my lord has always had the wisdom to know people, and sent me to meet you, Cao Zilian, why is this so, don't you know in your heart?" Zhang Helang laughed.

"I ......" to say that compared to others, Zhang He and Cao Hong who is stronger and who is weak, but if you talk about this kung fu to nourish qi, Zhang He is more humble and unassuming, whether under Yuan Shao or Chen Mo, he can bear it, but who is Cao Hong, Cao Cao's brother of the same clan, although he does not say that he is arrogant, but on weekdays, Cao Cao's generals will let him some, so compared to this patience kung fu, Cao Hong is naturally not as good as Zhang He, was squeezed by Zhang He's words, the anger in his chest was raised, and he pointed the spear in his hand at Zhang He and said: "Zhang Junyi, Hugh is here to take advantage of his tongue, can you dare to fight with me!? ”

"When you come out, it is to teach you to be a man, don't think that you are lucky to win, you think that the world is invincible, today so that you know that there is a sky outside the sky!" Zhang He immediately responded.

"Good, good!" Cao Honglian said three good words, turned the horse's head and said: "I don't compete with you for the benefit of the tongue, you and I are superior on the battlefield!" ”

"Just what I want!" Zhang He snorted coldly, turned his horse's head and returned to the army, looked at the generals and said: "The defeat of Jiwu Mountain, the lord is generous, and he has not held us accountable, but as a general, I can lose anything, but if I lose it, I have no face to wear this armor, I have issued a military order to the lord, if I can't win today, Zhang He will die here, if Zhang dies on the battlefield, please don't care about my body, continue to kill!" ”

His voice was very flat, but in this blandness, there was a force that made people can't help but boil their blood, and the generals said loudly: "I am willing to follow the general to die together!" ”

"Fight!" The Cao army on the opposite side had already moved, Zhang He raised the command flag and waved, personally carrying a big gun at the forefront, but he was ready to go into battle in person.

There was no superfluous nonsense, and the armies of both sides approached as quickly as two torrents.

On the walled city, Chen Mo took the drumstick handed by Dian Wei, glanced at the army outside the camp, and struck the drumstick hard.

"Knock~Knock~Knock~"

The drums echoed on the battlefield with a high-spirited rhythm, the men and horses on both sides began to contact, and the rain of arrows in the rear had stopped shooting.

The soldiers behind him were also inspired by the courage of the main general, and began to attack frantically, the two torrents collided fiercely together, and endless blood splashed on the battlefield, one side was highly morale, intending to completely destroy the morale of the enemy, and the other side was eager to wash away their shame of the defeated army, these two teams were killed in one place, and they had a reason to win, Zhang He was fierce, Cao Hong also did not let go, and the two teams fought outside the camp in this Zhengrong Valley, and the sky was dark, and the blood flowed like a river.

It's comparable!?

The spectators looked at the two teams fighting together with some surprise, Zhang He was brave, but Cao Hong was also fierce, and for a while, no one could help anyone.

Zhang He rushed back and forth twice, failed to defeat the enemy, and knew that this Cao army was tenacious, and immediately changed the way of playing, although it was still killed in the first line, but no longer with its own bravery to drive morale, but began to dispatch all parties, the war was at a stalemate, at this time, in addition to fighting spirit and combat power, more fight is who has stronger endurance, who can hold on to the end, who is the winner.

Therefore, after Zhang He saw that he could not take Cao Hong in a hurry, he changed his style of play, began to pay attention to the reasonableness of the formation, and let the rear soldiers go up in time to replace the soldiers fighting in front.

On the other hand, Cao Hong obviously understood this truth, and after several unsuccessful attempts to break the formation, he also chose the same way to consume the enemy's vital forces.

"Lord, the war is endless, why don't you rest first?" The battle had been fought for an hour, and Chen Mo's body had already begun to be covered with sweat, and several generals on the side couldn't help but persuade when they saw this.

"Since I promised to beat the drum for it, now that the war is not over, how can I lose my trust in the soldiers of the three armies!?" Chen Mo shook his head and continued to beat the drum to cheer, even though his arms had begun to swell.

"Tsk~" Dian Wei watched the battle outside the camp reach a stalemate, a little anxious, and hated to go into battle to kill the enemy in person and help Zhang He break through the enemy formation.

This kind of melee lasted for another hour, and the physical strength of the soldiers on the battlefield began to be exhausted, and it was obvious that the battle was not as fierce as before, but if you look closely, it is not difficult to find that the Guanzhong army still has spare strength, and Cao Jun is beginning to be a little weak, Zhang He is obviously not only reckless, from the beginning failed to quickly break the enemy, he paid attention to maintaining the rear force, although Cao Hong also has this awareness, but obviously, Cao Hong is inferior to Zhang He in this regard.

And as the casualties of the soldiers on both sides gradually became serious, the morale also began to decline, and the Cao army fell faster, and the victory or defeat was about to be decided!

When Chen Mo saw this, his eyes lit up, and he began to beat the drum with all his spare strength, and the drum beat suddenly began to be dense and exciting.

It seems that in order to cater to Chen Mo's drumbeat, on the battlefield, Zhang He saw the opportunity and suddenly ordered the soldiers who had spare strength in the rear to start a fierce attack, which caught Cao Jun off guard, and Cao Jun's morale finally collapsed at this moment.

"Soldiers, kill with me!" Zhang He was overjoyed when he saw this, raised his spear and roared, and personally led his personal guards into the enemy formation, which also became the last straw that broke the camel's back, and Cao's army began to collapse on all fronts.

The defeat is like a mountain, although Cao Hong is angry that he has lost to a defeated general, but he also knows that the general trend has gone, after scolding fiercely, he began to retreat with the defeated army, Zhang He has been chasing out of ten miles, and the corpses of the Cao army that were killed directly are all over the field, and the depression and anger that have been accumulated in the chest during this time are vented out, seeing that the Cao army has been scattered, and then chasing may meet the main force of the Cao army, so he collected the troops and returned to the camp.

When the drumming stopped, Chen Mo threw the drumstick in his hand, shook his shoulders and laughed loudly: "Happy!" ”

"My lord, the last general is fortunate not to be dishonored!" Zhang He returned to the camp, looked at Chen Mo's sweaty bun, took a deep breath, knelt on one knee, and handed over orders to Chen Mo.

"Get up, it's my luck to be able to get the service!" Chen Mo stretched out his hand to help Zhang He up, although he was a little weak, his heart was happy.

The victory or defeat of 5,000 people could not determine the outcome of this battle, but it allowed the Guanzhong army, which had been defeated by the defeat of Keiwu Mountain, to regain confidence and sweep away the previous decline.

At that moment, Chen Mo pulled Zhang He back to the camp to celebrate.

After the Daoists returned to the camp, Xun You looked at Chen Mo with a smile and said, "The lord has no last resort, you admire." ”

"What is this a last resort? If you change an army, you can try to change a general. Chen Mo shook his head, there are not many defeated troops who can regain confidence in a short period of time, many famous generals have been in a slump after the defeat, and since then they have been mediocre and ignorant.

"Zhang He, although he doesn't seem to be outstanding, but his victory is not arrogant, defeat is not discouraged, there is a tenacity that ordinary people do not have, if others encounter this big defeat, their confidence will inevitably be frustrated, but Zhang He will not!" Chen Mo sighed with emotion: "Although this person does not seem to be outstanding now, he will be the pillar of the army one day." ”

Of course, Zhang He's not outstanding also depends on who he compares with, compared with Lu Bu, Tai Shici, Xu Rong, Xu Huang, Ma Chao, Pang De, these generals with distinctive personalities, Zhang He is not bad in any aspect, but he is not the best in any aspect, but there are no shortcomings, compared to ordinary generals, Zhang He is not ordinary at all.

"So the lord knew before the war that General Zhang would win, so he was so excited?" Xun You said with a smile.

"There is no battle in this world that must be won, on the battlefield, it is changing rapidly, until the end, no one can say which battle is sure to win, if it wasn't for Xiahou Yuan's surprise attack, I never thought that the defense line of Keiwu Mountain would be so vulnerable, and even became the key to the defeat of our army." Chen Mo shook his head: "It's just that compared to others, Zhang He has a reason to win, this person, once there is no way out, even he may not know how strong he is!" ”

"This is also the Lord's good use of people's hearts." Xun Yu praised Chen Mo lightly, and this is not a sycophant, Chen Mo's grasp of people's hearts can be compared with him in the world, I am afraid that only Cao Cao is the only one.

"Perhaps." Chen Mo didn't say much about this kind of thing, this is the case, there is no need to keep emphasizing, just smile, but the mood is really good, he looked at Xun You and said: "Although this battle cannot decide the outcome of the battle, it also swept away the decadence of the battle of Jiwu Mountain, and then it is the real big war, I guess Brother Meng De will definitely let people go to intercept the reinforcements in the direction of Yangdu, and order Xu Huang, so that he does not have to rush to the rescue, and defeat the enemy who stands in the way, even if he can't be defeated, he can't let them support Cao Cao." ”

"Whoa!"
