To save Cao Ren at such a time is not a sign of scheming and recklessness. It was because Cao Ren was at the head of the military attachés, and he was Cao Cao's clansmen and cronies, so he knew too many things about Wei, including the distribution of military strength, grain and grass, and economic development. Many things can be immediately disadvantaged by Cao Jun after being mastered by the enemy.

Moreover, Cao Ren rescued Cao Cao several times, and it was reasonable for him to order someone to fight for it. It would be fine if there was no one to carry out this task, but after Xiahoudun successfully broke through, his hopes were pinned on him. Xiahoudun and Xu Chu were the two generals second only to Cao Ren, and also had important merits in the Wei army. Seeing Xiahoudun breaking through, Xu Chu had already understood his eastward direction, so he bravely led the cavalry to fight the enemy. Because Cao Cao was located on the south side, he was at the forefront, that is, on the south side, and he rode alone to kill the enemy who had divided Cao's army into several sections. Under its bravery, no one can match it. Seeing this, a general in Zhou Yu's army immediately threw off the enemy soldiers and intercepted them. The big axe swept away, and the long knife in Xu Chu's hand blocked horizontally. The two fought for more than 40 rounds without a victory, at this time Xu Chu's elite cavalry arrived, Xu Huang withdrew with a heavy axe, and Zhou Yu's infantry broke off. Xu Chu stared at his back and said in his heart: "The big axe general, is it Xu Huang of the Pang Army?" ”

At this moment, Xiahoudun had already rushed up the slope of the mountain, but he ordered to divide into two groups when he went up the mountain. The people along the way have been ambushed. And he himself was quickly trapped by the enemy soldiers who rushed towards him. But Xiahoudun was brave and fearless, and Zhou Yu's cavalry placed here was unexpectedly broken through by him, and dozens of people died under his halberd. Xiahoudun became more and more courageous, and at this moment, a person on the mountain rushed straight down. Xiahou looked at it, the man was wearing silver armor and holding a spear, but it was Zhao Yun who had just been on the mountain.

"I am Xiahou Dun, the general of the Wei army!" After more than 30 rounds of fighting back and forth, the archers of Zhou Yu's army who were ambushed here shot a group, and Xiahoudun's cavalry lay down, and Xiahoudun himself was shot in the left eye by an arrow. But he was not afraid of pain, and ran away with a halberd that swept away Zhao Yun's spear and reined in his horse. Zhao Yun stopped moving, and even the soldiers around him looked stupid. Xiahoudun pulled out a sharp arrow, and even brought out his eyeballs, he bit down on his eyeballs and swallowed them directly.

"How can the essence and blood of parents be wasted!"

Yan Bi rushed away from the halberd in his hand, and the offensive continued, killing the infantry to retreat and gallop smoothly to the foot of the mountain.

"This man is very brave." Zhao Yun said indifferently, and then rode down the mountain. He admired the courage of his opponent, and after fighting for a while, he formed an indescribable "friendship", and he was unwilling to kill his opponent after being attacked by a sneak attack, otherwise it would lose his Zhao Yun's martial name. But after he was sure that Xiahoudun had fled, he immediately rode down and led the ambush soldiers to kill him.

Cao Cao's army was divided into several sections, and he was unable to fight under the situation of being trapped. Cao Cao was at the core of the center, Xu Chu led the elite cavalry to escort him, and Zhou Yu's army was unapproachable. Xu Chu killed countless enemies with a long knife in his hand, and the surrounding enemy soldiers were terrified. Xu Huang knew that he was brave, and he also led his troops to raid the past several times, but they were all blocked by Xu Chu's people. In the middle of the unbearable, a team of cavalry rushed over from the north, Zhou Yu saw it and dodged, and Cao Cao's army was directly cut by him, and no one could stop him.

"I am Zhao Zilong, the king of the Southern Heavens!"

Xu Chu turned around when he heard this, and Zhao Yun had already killed, and his momentum was like a rainbow. He struck him with a knife, and the two men tangled together. The cavalry of the two surrounding sides also fought each other. After more than sixty rounds, Xu Chu found that Zhao Yun's marksmanship was becoming more and more aggressive, and his moves were aimed at the key points, and Cao Cao's core corps had obviously been surrounded. In this case, he burst out with courage, and after six rounds of fierce fighting with Zhao Yun, Le Ma turned around and broke through the enemy siege and came to Cao Cao's side. At this time, Xiahou Yuan shot with a bow and arrow, and hundreds of people had already died under his sharp arrows.

"Let's go!"

Xu Chu shouted loudly and broke through to the southeast to cover Cao Cao's retreat. Xiahou Yuan led his elite troops to block the enemy, but Zhou Yu's army chased and fought fiercely, and Zhao Yun rushed over, his momentum was like an angry dragon diving, Xiahou Yuan knew that close combat would not be this person's opponent, so he hurriedly aimed at Zhao Yun's chest and shot an arrow, and Zhao Yun's body slanted away to dodge. Xiahou Yuan had no choice but to pull out his waist sword and lead his troops to rush over, fighting with Zhao Yun, and he was already out of power in less than ten rounds.

"Wei Guole is here!" Suddenly, a person shouted loudly, came with a red tassel spear, and besieged Zhao Yun with Xiahou Yuan. At this time, Xiahou Yuan's descendants of the archers all stood still, turned around and shot, Zhao Yun's cavalry surrounded and killed, the cavalry was difficult to parry, and they abandoned their bows and arrows and raised their swords to resist. But the archers, who were usually accustomed to attacking from afar, were no match for the cavalry at all, and were slowly fed.

Xiahou Yuan and Le Jin besieged Zhao Yun, after more than 20 rounds, the two saw that this person's martial arts were amazing, and there were more and more enemy soldiers, so they had to tacitly attack together and then run away, when Zhao Yun killed from the rear, the war horse was accidentally tripped by a long box thrown by Cao Caojun on the ground, and the whole flew out, rolling really embarrassed. But he immediately found a horse and continued the pursuit. He knew that the baggage had been thrown here, this position was already where the rear army was, and Cao Cao's army had been completely defeated, so it was a good opportunity to pursue and kill at this time. But the road is narrow, and it is really troublesome to chase from the hillside. And the enemy left behind the troops of the palace. I saw a person holding a shining long sword to lead the crowd to resist Zhou Yujun.

Zhao Yun rushed to kill him, and he would know that he was a general, and he also came on horseback.

"I am Xia Houen of Wei State, and the enemy general ......" Before he finished speaking, Zhao Yun was fast, and he was stabbed off the horse with a shot.

"Yellow-mouthed child." Zhao Yun said coldly. And he saw that the hilt of the sword was set with precious stones, and that its blade was as sharp as if it were cold. He turned over and dismounted and raised his weapon to take a look, only to see a few narrow words "Qingyu Sword" at the end of the hilt, so he untied Xia Houen's steel sword knock. At this moment, Xia Houen's subordinates came with revenge, and Zhao Yun turned over and directly cut off the iron sword with a sword, as if cutting wood chips.

"Good sword!" Zhao Yun gasped, changed his scabbard, mounted his horse and galloped, rushing to kill Cao Cao's army's rear troops.

Cao Cao had already been escorted by Xu Chu for more than forty miles, and he was relieved to see that the enemy soldiers were not there.

"Zhou Yu defeated me twice, it's really my nemesis!" Cao Cao was heartbroken.

Guo Jia, who fled with the army on one side, was also out of breath. "Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, but I didn't expect that Zhou Yu would catch the general this time, this kind of thing can be done...... This person is not simple. ”

When they were admiring, they didn't know that Cao Ren's situation was told to Zhou Yu by the Dark Moon Battalion led by Xue Yue, otherwise Zhou Yu would never have noticed Cao Ren's troops. After all, Cao Ren is bold and shrewd, and he can go deep into the hinterland to ambush the food team, let alone find a way to escape.

"It seems that the food of this Pang Tong army is still very sufficient, and we can't enter lightly." Cao Cao said: "After thousands of calculations, in the end, it turned out to be wrong in his own strategy." A good one will be calculated. ”

"O king, please condemn me, this is my mistake." Guo Jia asked calmly.

"Feng Xiao, what are these words, you yourself say that victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, and now this kind of thing is coming again, it's really against your ears!" Cao Cao said angrily: "I will definitely kill it back!" ”

They rested in place, and from time to time deserters came to gather, and Xu Chu led his troops to patrol around. In fact, Zhou Yu's army retreated after pursuing more than 20 miles, and Cao Cao's army had a lot of baggage.

Near dusk, Xiahoudun, who wrapped his left eye diagonally in a rag, arrived. Cao Cao was heartbroken when he saw that he had lost his left eye.

"I, Cao Mengde, how can I make the general lighten up for me. I really shouldn't! ”

The white rag had already been dyed red, and Xiahoudun said indifferently: "Obeying the king's orders is the duty of our military attachés, why do you need to say more?" But I was also careless, I didn't expect Zhao Yun of Renguo to have such martial arts, and it is estimated that he is above General Xu. ”

Cao Cao was in a bad mood, and when he heard this kind of news, he said in a lamented voice: "What kind of blessing has this Pang Tong cultivated, there is such a famous general who is brave and good at fighting." He took a deep breath and said to Guo Jia on the side: "Pass the order, and set Xiahou Dun as the general and Cao Ren as the great Sima." ”

"I'm afraid this will mess up the morale of the army, after all, the general Cao Ren is still in the hands of the enemy. This is a bit of a discarded approach. Xiahoudun said: "I failed to rescue the general this time, and I am already speechless." ”

"Nope. General Xiahou has a very high prestige in the army, and you have participated in many important battles and made many great achievements. This decision was made in order to stabilize the morale of the military. Guo Jia said: "If the commander of our army has been captured, such a situation will shake the courage of the soldiers." Moreover, General Cao Ren is good at defense and water warfare, and if you want to talk about military talent and martial bravery, General Xiahou is slightly better. ”

"Exactly, you don't have to push." Cao Cao said decisively: "Zixiao's life and death are uncertain, and I am ashamed of him." After returning home, he first sent an envoy to talk about the return of people. ”

"Could it be that the king wants to withdraw his troops?" Xiahoudun frowned and said: "The soldiers of our army are unyielding, and we have not yet understood the situation of the Sima military division in the north. ”

"Hey, see for yourself." Cao Cao pointed at the remnants of the defeated generals around him who had no morale. "It is estimated that tens of thousands of people have fled back, how can they continue to fight with Zhou Gongjin in such a situation. I will send an envoy to inform him to withdraw his troops as soon as possible. I only hope that he can hold on and not be plotted by Pang Tong. ”

Cao Cao and others believed that Cao Ren had not burned the grain and grass of Pang Tong's army, so they were also worried about the battle on Sima Yi's side. If the grain burning is successful, Pang Tong's army should be in a state of panic and demoralization. But at the moment, it's hard to predict.
