Chapter 140: Back to Camp (I)
At such a time, how can there be reinforcements? Zhao Yun once wondered if he was suffering from auditory hallucinations due to his injuries.
It stands to reason that no reinforcements should appear in this case. The so-called palace army is an abandoned army, since it has been abandoned, how can the commander send troops to help, adding to the casualties of his own army, not to mention the extremely precious cavalry that was dispatched.
But the sound of horses' hooves from the south became clearer and clearer.
This is not an illusion, there is indeed a cavalry unit rushing to the battlefield.
Looking back to the south, Zhao Yun saw a lot of knights in Cao Jun's battle armor galloping over, led by Xiahou Yuan.
Cao Cao carried 1,000 cavalry on this trip and was under the command of Xiahou Yuan. Looking at this situation, Xiahou Yuan brought all these thousand people, obviously to rescue Guan Yu and Zhao Yun.
There was no reason, seeing the thousand knights quickly approaching the battlefield, Zhao Yun couldn't help but wonder. Cao Cao didn't have many cavalry, and these thousand cavalry could be regarded as his treasures, how could he throw them into this Jedi to die so easily?
But now is not the time to think too much, although this thousand-man cavalry team will not play a role in changing the situation, but if they rush into the battlefield, the possibility of Zhao Yun and Guan Yu escaping may be so great.
This made Zhao Yun feel overjoyed.
"Yun Chang, reinforcements are coming, there is still hope for our lives!" I could only hear Zhao Yun shouting to Guan Yu in a loud voice. In a desperate situation, there is suddenly hope, and anyone will be unable to help themselves.
At this time, Guan Yu's spirit was already in a daze, and he almost relied on his body's instinctive reaction to kill the enemy, and he didn't really hear the rumbling horses' hooves from behind. At this time, he was drunk by Zhao Yun like this, and his mind suddenly sobered up a little, and when he saw the cavalry of his own army killing from the south, Guan Yu's heart was also cold.
Although these thousand cavalry basically have no effect, if they rush into Yuan Shao's army, it is estimated that they will be annihilated quickly, but at least with the disturbance of these thousand cavalry, it is unknown that they may be able to escape from this desperate situation.
Even if the possibility of Mr. Hara is still zero, this cavalry team will only raise this possibility to one after breaking in, but the ants are still surviving, and since there is hope, they must go all out to fight for it.
I didn't want Cao Cao to be so affectionate and righteous, and sent his cavalry to help us who were in death. Suddenly in a desperate situation, Guan Yu's subconscious perception of Cao Cao couldn't help but improve.
"Whewββ!" Although Guan Yu is close to exhaustion now, the eighty-two-pound Qinglong Yanyue Knife seems to weigh eight hundred pounds in his hand at this time, but as long as Guan Yu does not completely lose his strength for a moment, he will always be the Guan Yunchang who deters the three armies, and he can continue to kill!
Yuan Shao saw that General Cao led the cavalry team into the battlefield again, and his face also showed a look of surprise. What the hell is Cao Apu doing, it was not easy to successfully evacuate with the army, why is he now asking someone to lead such a force to send him to death? There shouldn't be too many cavalry under him, such a cavalry team of about 1,000 people is also a lot of wealth for him Cao Cao. What was Cao Cao's intention in rushing this cavalry team into the battlefield? With Cao Cao's prudence, he would never do such a foolish act.
Yuan Shao thought about it and couldn't figure it out.
In fact, Cao Cao didn't want to sacrifice these thousand people in vain, so it can be said that he made this decision completely with gritted teeth.
The so-called thousands of troops are easy to obtain, and one general is hard to find, if it is just Guan Yu who has not been able to completely subdue his heart, it is okay, but the problem is that Zhao Yun is righteous, and he is also trapped in the Jedi with Guan Yu.
Zhao Yunqi was loyal and brave without lack of calmness and resourcefulness, and was deeply loved by Cao Cao, and if he was allowed to die on the battlefield, Cao Cao would be greatly grieved.
Zhao Yun can be said to be the same as Gao Shun, a pillar figure among the generals with foreign surnames, and Cao Cao is really reluctant to die because of this.
But his own liking alone was not enough to make Cao Cao make up his mind and give the order to send troops to rescue him. After all, Cao Cao, as the commander of an army, must focus on the overall situation. If you drive your troops to death with your own willfulness, then it is very likely to attract the dissatisfaction of other generals, and now that we are in the midst of a great war, we must not cause internal displeasure at such a critical moment.
Therefore, if there is really no way, you can only watch Zhao Yun suffer misfortune.
Fortunately, Zhao Yun has a kind personality, although his martial arts are extremely high, he has no shelf, he is quite easy to get close to people, and he is very popular on weekdays. In Cao Ying, whether it is a general surnamed Cao surnamed Xiahou or a general with a foreign surname, most of them have a deep friendship with Zhao Yun. After learning that he was in danger, all the generals of Cao Ying expressed their willingness to send troops to rescue him.
The Xiahou brothers, Zhang Liao, and Huang Zhong all said that they would go to the rescue, and Gao Shun was not far behind and asked Cao Cao to send troops.
Seeing that the generals were surging and they were all muttering about going to save Zhao Yun, Cao Cao felt a little relieved. As long as everyone wants, then it is logical to send troops to rescue Zhao Yun, and there is nothing to be embarrassed about.
As for which troops to send to the rescue, although Cao Cao hesitated, he quickly made a decision.
Let Xiahou Yuan lead the 1,000 cavalry and go to the rescue!
Even when Cao Cao gave the order, he could feel his heart dripping blood.
A thousand cavalrymen, after being put into battle, it is estimated that all of them will be sent to death.
But the problem is, this cavalry team is the best option at the moment. The number of reinforcements sent to rescue Zhao Yun is destined to be too many, so if only ordinary foot soldiers are sent forward, I am afraid that they will be wiped out without any chance of approaching Zhao Yun in front of Yuan Shao's army.
The cavalry has strong speech power and a certain impact, and may be able to break into the enemy formation in the chaos and find an opportunity to rescue Zhao Yun.
Although this cavalry suffered all casualties, it would be a great loss for itself, but after today's defeat, the Cao army will inevitably have to fight against the Yuan army in a defensive posture for a long time in the future, and this thousand cavalry may not be able to play a big role in this Guandu battlefield. In this case, it is better to let them rescue Zhao Yun.
Although the cavalry is damaged, it can still be made up, if Zhao Yun is broken, who can replace him!
As for Guan Yu, Cao Cao really didn't have any ideas. After all, the other party is just a general who has no return, and it is good if he can rescue him, but if he can't, then there is no need to act reluctantly.
"Miaocai, be careful in everything, it is best to be able to rescue Zilong, but if you can't do it, everything is to save your life. Seeing that nothing can be done, you should immediately retreat. Before Xiahou Yuan set off, Cao Cao carefully admonished him. Xiahou Yuan and Cao Cao have a brotherhood, although Zhao Yun is certainly loved by Cao Cao, but in order to save Zhao Yun, Xiahou Yuan was folded in, which is obviously a scene that Cao Cao does not want to see.
