Yu Bandao: "Today, I went up the mountain to watch, in the west of Puyang, there is a village in Lu Bu, and there are not many defenders. Tonight, the enemy will learn that our army is defeated, and he will not prepare, but we can lead troops to attack, and we can fight in a battle; If you get the village, Lu Bujun will be afraid, this is the best policy. ”

Cao Cao followed his words, took Cao Hong, Li Dian, Mao Jue, Lu Qian, Yu Ban, and Le Jin six generals, selected 20,000 horses, and marched from the road overnight.

But Lu Bu worked in the village. Chen Gong said: "Xizhai is an important place, if Cao Cao sneaks up, it will inevitably threaten our army?" ”

Lu Budao: "He lost for a while today, how dare he come!" ”

Chen Gong continued to persuade bitterly: "Cao Cao is a person who is extremely capable of using soldiers, and he must be prevented from attacking me." ”

Lu Bu had no choice but to send Gao Shun, Wei Xu, and Hou Cheng to lead troops to guard Xizhai.

At dusk, Cao Cao led his army to Xizhai and broke through from all sides. The soldiers of the village could not resist and scattered in all directions, and Cao Cao seized the village. will and the fourth watch, Gao Shunfang led the army to the army, and the killing will come in. Cao Cao led the army to greet him, just in time for Gao Shun, the three armies were fighting, the general and the Ming, the drums in the west were shocked, and the people reported that Lu Bu had brought the rescue army to come.

Cao Cao abandoned the village and left. Gao Shun, Wei Xu, and Hou Cheng rushed behind him; At the head, Lu Bu personally led the army to come. Yu Ban and Lejin fought against Lu Bu and did not go. Cao Cao looked north and sent an army out of the mountain: Zhang Liao on the left and Zang Ba on the right. Cao Cao sent Lü Qian and Cao Hong to fight. The two were defeated, and Cao Cao looked west and left. Suddenly, there was a loud shout, and a Biao army arrived: Hao Meng, Cao Xing, Cheng Lian, and Song Xian blocked the way.

The generals fought to the death, and Cao Cao rushed into battle first. Where the bangzi rang, arrows shot like a shower. Cao Cao couldn't move forward, he had no way out, and shouted: "Who will save me!" In the horse army, a general came out, it was Zhang Zhen's third brother Tai Shici, who rode out with a double halberd, Zhang Zhen shouted: "Mengde, don't worry!" ”

Tai Shi Ci flew off his horse, inserted the double halberd, took the bow and arrow, and the number of people who died under Tai Shi Ci's arrow in an instant was no more than two hands.

When everyone saw this, they were frightened and rushed to run. Tai Shi Cifei got on his horse, stood up with a pair of halberds, and rushed out. Hao Meng, Cao Xing, Cheng Lian, and Song Xian couldn't resist and fled separately. Tai Shi Ci killed and dispersed the enemy army and rescued Cao Cao. The generals also arrived, looking for their way back to the village.

Looking at the evening, where the shouting behind him began, Lu Bu suddenly came with a halberd and shouted: "the thief and leave!" At this time, people were sleepy and tired, and everyone looked at each other, each wanting to escape.

Cao Cao was panicking, and a horse in the formation came out to block Lu Bu, and when he looked at it, it was Zhang Zhen's second brother Zhao Yun, and Zhao Yun intercepted Lu Bu for hundreds of rounds. At dusk, the rain was pouring down, and they led their troops back.

Cao Cao returned to the village and rewarded Tai Shici and Zhao Yun, but the two of them did not accept it, Cao Cao glanced at Zhang Zhen differently, and his eyes were full of envy.

……

But Lu Bu went to the village and discussed with Chen Gong.

Chen Gong said: "There is a rich Toda clan in Puyang City, with thousands of servants, and it is a huge room in a county; can make Pi Mi send people to Cao Cao's village, saying, 'Lu Wenhou is cruel and unkind, and the people are resentful. If you want to move troops to Liyang today, there will be Gao Shun in the city. I can enter the army overnight, and I will be the internal response'. If Cao Cao came, he lured him into the city, set fire to the four gates, and set up ambushes outside. Even if Cao Cao has the talent of warp and latitude, it will be difficult to get rid of it here? ”

Lu Bu nodded in agreement with his plan, and secretly instructed the Tian clan to send people to Cao Cao's village. Cao Cao was hesitating because of the new defeat, and suddenly reported to Tian Shiran and presented a secret book: "Lu Bu has gone to Liyang, and the city is empty. Hope to come quickly, when it is an internal response. A white flag is planted in the city, and the word 'righteousness' is written in a big book, which is a code. ”

Cao Cao was overjoyed and said: "This is to let me get Puyang!" "Reward the people who came, and pack up the troops.

Liu Ye said: "Although Lu Bu has no plan, Chen Gong has a lot of plans. I am afraid that there is fraud in it, and I must guard against it. If Ming Gong wants to go, he should divide three armies into three teams: two teams will respond outside the city, and one team will enter the city. ”

Cao Cao thought for a moment and followed his words, divided the army into three teams, and came to Puyang City.

Cao Cao looked at it first, and saw that the city was full of flags, and on the corner of the west gate, there was a white flag with the word "righteousness", and he was secretly happy in his heart. It is the noon card of the day, the city gate is opened, and the two members will lead the army to battle: Hou Cheng of the former army and Gao Shun of the rear army. Cao Cao, even if Xiahou Yuan came out, took Hou Cheng directly. Hou Cheng couldn't resist the enemy, so he went back to Mawang City. Xiahou Yuan rushed to the drawbridge, but Gao Shun couldn't stop it, so they all retreated into the city. Hou Cheng's army took advantage of the situation to meet Cao Cao, who was the envoy of the Tian family and presented a secret book.

The book says: "At the beginning of tonight, the gong will be sounded in the city, and you can enter the army, and you should sacrifice the door." ”

Cao Cao assigned Xiahou Yuan to lead the army on the left, Cao Ren to lead the army on the right, and he led Xiahou Yuan, Li Dian, Le Jin, and Xu Chu to lead the troops into the city.

Li Dian said: "The lord is outside the city, Rong and others will enter the city first." ”

Cao Cao shouted: "I don't want to go forward, who is willing to move forward!" So he led his troops straight in.

At the beginning of the day, the moonlight was not on. I could only hear the sound of shells blowing on the west gate, and the shouts suddenly arose, and the torches on the gate were blazing, and the city gate was wide open, and the drawbridge was dropped. Cao Cao scrambled to be the first to enter. Until the state office, there was no one on the road, Cao Cao understood the plan, hurriedly turned back the horse, and shouted: "Retreat!" ”

A cannon rang out in the state office, and four flames burst out; The golden drums sounded in unison, and the shouts were like a river turning over the sea to punish Zhang Liao in the east lane, and Zang Ba in the west lane, attacking and covering the killing. Cao Cao walked through the north gate, and Hao Meng and Cao Xing turned out from the road, and killed for a while.

Cao Cao hurriedly walked to the south gate, but Gao Shun and Hou Cheng stopped him. Xu Chu gritted his teeth angrily and rushed out. Gao Shun and Hou Cheng walked out of the city.

Xu Chu killed to the drawbridge, turned around and disappeared Cao Cao, turned over and entered the city, and bumped into Li Dian under the door. Xu Chu asked, "Where is the lord?" ”

Li Dian said: "I didn't see it. ”

Xu Chu said: "You go outside the city to inform the reinforcements, and I will enter the city to find the lord." ”

Li Dian went. Xu Chu entered the city and couldn't find it; Fight out of the trench again, and hit Lejin. Le Jin said: "Where is the lord? ”

Xu Chu said regretfully: "I went back and forth twice and didn't see the lord." ”

Le Jin said: "Let's go to the Savior!" "By the Liangran Gate, the artillery in the city rolled down, and the Lejin horse could not enter. Xu Chu burst into smoke and fire, and then went in, looking everywhere.

But Cao Cao saw that Xu Chu was killed, and people and horses were intercepted in all directions, and he was not allowed to go out of the south gate; Turning to the north gate again, in the firelight, I saw Lu Bu coming from a halberd prancing horse. Cao Cao covered his face with his hands and whipped his horse.

Lu Bu rushed from behind, hung the halberd on Cao Cao's helmet, and asked, "Where is Cao Cao?" ”

Cao Cao pointed back: "He is the one who rode the yellow horse in front." When Lu Bu heard this, he abandoned Cao Cao and chased after him. Cao Cao turned his horse's head and looked at the east gate and left, just in time for Xu Chu. Xu Chu protected Cao Cao, killed a bloody road, to the city gate, the flames were very strong, the city pushed down the firewood and grass, there was fire everywhere, Xu Chu used a big knife to pull away, Pegasus smoked and burst into flames first. Cao Cao then came out. When he arrived at the doorway, a beam of fire collapsed from the city gate, and he was hitting the crotch of Cao Cao's war horse, and the horse was exposed. Cao Cao pushed the ground with a hand jocket, and his arm was burned. Xu Chu came back to Ma to save him, and it happened that Xiahou Yuan also dared to arrive. The two rescued Cao Cao and burst out of the fire.

Cao Cao rode the Yuan horse and walked with Xu Chu and Xiahou Yuan to kill a bloody road. After the melee until the Ming Dynasty, Cao Cao returned to the village in embarrassment.
