Chapter 488: Ambush

"Cao Mengde, you have become a lost dog, don't get off the horse and surrender quickly!" Lu Bu shouted while leading the troops to chase and kill.

Cao Cao rode the shadow, galloping all the way away, hearing the constant shouts and horses' hooves behind him, his eyes were not surprised and happy, and the corners of his mouth even showed a hint of sarcasm.

Using his body as bait, he finally caught Lu Bu's tiger!

Although he tempted Lu Bu to be in the scheme, he was indeed in danger at this time. Although the shadow under the crotch is said to be one in a million peerless horses, it is still a little different from the king of horses, Chitu. Cao Cao frantically urged the horse under his crotch, but Lu Bu still rode the red rabbit and approached little by little. The two sides chased and fled for half an hour and came to the edge of a dense forest.

Cao Cao passed straight through the path in the dense forest, and Lu Bugang, who was following him, was about to pass through the dense forest as well, but saw a team of men and horses suddenly rushing out from both sides of the dense forest and killing him directly.

"Three family slaves! A certain Zang Ba has been waiting for you here for a long time! An angry curse rushed out from the mouth of Zang Ba, who was the first to rank in front of the army.

Looking at the team of soldiers and horses in front of him who quickly formed an army, Lu Bu's face was extremely ugly.

Damn Cao Mengde! Somebody has been tricked again!

The number of soldiers and horses in the forest is obviously not a few, and there are more than 10,000 of these soldiers who rushed out alone, and they all seem to be elite. I don't know how many armies are hidden in the forest, and there are faintly countless soldiers.

Lu Bu looked at Cao Cao, who was behind the army with a sneering face, and shouted angrily: "Cao Mengde! ”

Cao Cao laughed loudly when he heard this: "Haha! Lu Fengxian, do you think my Cao Mengde's head is so easy to take? Those soldiers in your rear were not led by your flying general, and they should have been slaughtered by a certain army by now! ”

When Lu Bu heard this, his back was cold, and he was immediately furious: "Cao Mengde, Ru Jing uses these conspiracies and tricks to have the ability to fight a certain head-on!" ”

"Soldiers are not tired of cheating, don't you even understand this truth?" Cao Cao said sarcastically: "It was you who gave up the army and wanted to attack and kill You, and now you are complaining that you are using tricks to earn you, which is ridiculous!" ”

Cao Cao was very confident that Lu Bu would catch up, and the weight of he, the overlord of the Central Plains, was far from being comparable to that of the tens of thousands of troops. With such a good opportunity to take him directly, Lu Bu will definitely take the bait, and the result is exactly as he thought.

Zang Ba quickly completed the army, and led an army of 20,000 to kill Lu Bu directly. Because Lu Bu had been chasing Cao Cao frantically, and the iron cavalry of Bingzhou was far behind him, he had not yet arrived. Facing the neat 20,000 troops led by Zang Ba in front of him, he hurriedly rode his horse back.

"Hugh has left Lu Bu, and whoever takes his head will be rewarded with a thousand gold, and the official will be promoted to three levels!" Cao Cao's narrow and mocking voice of encouragement sounded. How Lu Bu chased and killed him just now, how did he deal with Lu Bu in turn at this time.

Zang Ba's army shouted and killed Lu Bu. But Lu Bu's crotch is a red rabbit horse, how can they catch up, and easily ask Zang Ba's army to retreat and make peace with the Xiliang Iron Cavalry in the rear.

"Lord, are you alright?" Zang Ba saw that Lu Bu did not pursue after fleeing, and hurriedly rushed to Cao Cao's side and said with concern. He is truly convinced of Cao Cao's courage, and dares to use his example as a bait to seduce Lu Bu, how can he not be admired for his courage? If he had the slightest dissent, Cao Cao would have to worry about his life in an instant, and he entrusted this heavy responsibility to himself, and Cao Cao's trust moved Zang Ba very much.

"What can happen to me with you?" Cao Cao said with a smile.

"It's the last general who is incompetent, in order to defeat Lu Bu, you need to let the lord personally take the risk, and the last general deserves death!" Zang Ba knelt down on one knee and said sincerely.

Cao Cao gently helped him up: "It's not your fault, Lu Fengxian is the number one military general in the world, and the iron cavalry under his command is also brave in the world, if you don't take some risks, how can you quickly eliminate this tiger?" Okay, quickly reorganize the troops and horses to catch up, if it's too late, Miaocai can't stop it, I'm afraid our arrangement will fall short. ”

"Yes! The last general commands! "Zang Ba hugged his fists.

Then Zang Ba reorganized his troops and horses to escort Cao Cao, and continued to pursue along the path of Lu Bu's departure.

On the other side, the Bingzhou cavalry that pursued Cao Cao with Lu Bu was far behind and did not stop pursuing, but before it could catch up with Lu Bu, a group of more than 10,000 elite cavalry suddenly appeared in the path on the oblique side, and a banner with the word Xiahou was erected.

Seeing this, Chen Gong, who was accompanied by the Bingzhou cavalry, said anxiously: "Not good! I waited for Cao Mengde's plan. ”

Cao Xuan and the others hurriedly asked, "Strategist, what should we do?" ”

Chen Gong thought for a while, recalled the surrounding terrain, and shouted: "Let's break through to the east!" ”

"What about the lord?" Cao Xuan asked.

"The lord's martial arts are unparalleled in the world, and there are red rabbit horses accompanying him, and the other party can't take the lord's. Wait for the lord, whether the lord kills or not, Cao Cao will come back and make peace with me. Chen Gong said affirmatively.

Having said that, Chen Gong was no longer hopeful that Lu Bu would be able to kill Cao Cao. The ambush here did not move when Cao Cao and Lu Bu passed by before, obviously coming at himself and others, Cao Cao must not have a back hand to deal with Xiliang Iron Cavalry, but there is no hole card to protect his safety.

In fact, these thousands of Bingzhou Iron Cavalry are not invincible to Xiahou Yuan's more than 10,000 elite cavalry, but at this time, the Bingzhou Iron Cavalry is already a lone army, and there are Cao Cao's reinforcements all around, in case Cao Cao's reinforcements arrive during the battle, the Bingzhou Iron Cavalry will definitely be dangerous.

Xiahou Yuan did not lead the army to rush and kill, but just hung far behind the iron cavalry of Bingzhou, which was quite a bit of a cat and mouse. He didn't intend to destroy this Merge State Iron Horse, because he couldn't fight at all, but he just had to keep an eye on the Merge State Iron Horse. Relying on Xiahou Yuan's legion talent, the enemy advances and I retreat, and the enemy retreats and I advance, which can completely drag the Bingzhou iron cavalry or even exhaust to death, and it is simple to wait until Cao Cao's army arrives and then come to encircle and suppress.

Chen Gong quickly figured out Xiahou Yuan's thoughts, but he couldn't do anything, who knew when Cao Cao's reinforcements would arrive, at this time he could only lead the Bingzhou Iron Cavalry to break through in one direction. Soon, Lu Bu chased after him along the path of the army and came to the Bingzhou Iron Cavalry.

"Lord, how is it?" Chen Gong asked. In fact, seeing that Lu Buzi was alone, there was no corpse or head of Cao Cao, and Fang Tian's halberd was not stained with blood, he knew the result, but he still couldn't help asking.

Lu Bu, who had a hideous face, said in a low voice: "Cao Mengde had an ambush in the mountains and forests, and he couldn't be chased and killed, so he escaped." ”

As soon as Lu Bu's words came out, Chen Gong and the generals sank in their hearts. The sacrifice of tens of thousands of troops and thousands of iron horsemen in the state was exchanged for such a result. At this time, the remaining army around Lu Bu was only seven or eight thousand iron cavalry.

"How's it going on your side?" Lu Bu looked at Xiahou Yuan, who had been hanging unhurriedly behind him, and asked in a low voice.

Chen Gong frowned slightly: "Cao Mengde doesn't know what reinforcements there are, we only have thousands of elite cavalry now, and we are not able to fight with them at all, although the cavalry pursuing in the rear is average, but if it is entangled, when Cao Cao's reinforcements arrive, I am afraid that all the thousands of iron cavalry will be buried here." ”

"But it's not okay to be hung by the other party all the time! Our army has experienced fighting and rushing, and its physical strength is already exhausted, and if it continues like this, it will greatly reduce its combat strength even if it is not exhausted to death, and I am afraid that the situation will be even worse at that time. Lu Bu said anxiously.

"Don't disturb the lord, a certain person has been prepared." A gleam flashed in Chen Gong's eyes, and he said in a low voice.
