Chapter 752: Decisive Battle against Cao Ren
Zhao Yun's cavalry stopped the horse's hooves not far away, and the soldiers reined in the horses, allowing the horses to breathe for a while to recover their strength, ready to launch a decisive charge. The soldiers regained their strength on their horses, panting and preparing for the final decisive battle.
Zhao Yun lifted the war horse, walked to the front of the two armies, and said loudly to Cao Ren and Cao Zhen: "Fighting all the way, your soldiers have proved to me their strength and excellence, and my soldiers have also proved their excellence and loyalty to you." Now this cat-and-mouse game should come to an end, the victory and defeat have been divided, and the goals of both you and me have been achieved, so I propose, there is no need to let the soldiers of both you and me be innocent, worthless and die here, this is originally the war between Cao Cao and my third brother, this is originally a war between you and me, so I propose that the three of us fight to the death here. ”
Cao Ren couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "Sure enough, it is a loyal four generals, and if you can have such a heart, it is what I can't ask for, then you and I will fight to the death." ”
Zhao Yun said: "General Cao is already old, I can't bear to fight alone with you, let you two fight with me now." ”
Cao Zhen mentioned the war horse: "I have fought many times, but I have no chance to compare with the four generals, I can give me this opportunity, of course, I can't ask for it." ”
Then there was no nonsense, the two of them glanced at each other, and together they raised their guns to kill Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun raised his gun to meet him, and the three of them had a duel of true heroes here.
The invincible Zhao Zilong's silver spear in the world is really superb, although the Cao family and the two cannot be compared, they have already fought for their lives, but they attack and never defend, and for a time the two sides are inseparable.
At this time, there was a sudden roar among the four thousand Cao family cavalry: "Die with General Cao." ”
With a loud roar, the four thousand cornered iron hooves let out a shout, rushing towards Zhao Yun's large array like a flood, and in the face of the enemy with a superiority of fifteen thousand, they carried out a decisive charge like a moth to a fire.
This is definitely a duel of life and death, and I feel that it is not only the three main generals, but also the soldiers of both sides.
Zhao Yun assassinated Cao Ren after being shot by Cao Zhen solidly, and when Cao Zhen desperately pounced, he was killed by a single shot.
The 4,000 cavalry of the Cao family also died on the battlefield when the sun was setting.
Looking at the soldiers on both sides who died heroically all over the ground, Zhao Yun walked on the battlefield with a gun, his heart was extremely heavy, they were all loyal and brave soldiers, and they could be respected and admired, although, in their final decisive battle, they caused themselves four thousand brothers to die, but even the enemy got the necessary awe because of this loyalty.
The task of pursuing Cao Ren is over, counting the losses, Zhao Yun's heart is dripping blood, because this time the Cao army has a mortal heart, so the Cao army's 12,000 cavalry, just in the middle of your chase and me, fought out their 8,000 brothers, which has such a battle loss ratio in the case of unequal equipment and unequal numbers, which shows the huge role played by the fighting spirit.
The mission was over, the soldiers who died on both sides were buried, it was already dark, although Zhao Yun was anxious, but he still decided to rest here for a day and then return to the east.
As a result, before dawn, a patrol came in in a hurry and reported to Zhao Yunyu: "Fourth general, someone asks to see you." ”
Zhao Yun wondered, in this unfamiliar place, how could anyone ask to see him? Especially here, I am in the barracks, waiting for idlers to avoid it.
Who is this person?
When someone came in, Zhao Yun was taken aback at that time, it turned out to be Liu Chu.
"Why did you come here, weren't you sent to lobby Ma Chao?"
The embarrassed Liu Chu's eyes were bloodshot, and he was rushing overnight at first glance, and he didn't answer Zhao Yun's question at this time, and asked Zhao Yun to immediately prepare some food and drink for himself, and prepare the best war horse for himself, and then gobbled it up while introducing his mission to Zhao Yun.
Liu Chu was urgently sent to Xiliang, ready to stop Ma Chao from being coerced by Cao Cao at all costs, but he traveled all the way west, and when he arrived at Ma Chao, he was told that Ma Chao had taken his men out of Tongguan, killed Si Li, and directly attacked Xu Du.
In fact, this is good news, but fortunately, from this point of view, Ma Chao will never surrender to Cao Cao.
But before Liu Chu could be happy, Ma Teng's sworn brother Han Sui suddenly mutinied, and wiped out the descendants of the Ma family father and son left in Xiliang, completely monopolizing Xiliang.
Ma Teng and Han Sui are nominally sworn brothers, but in fact, they are two hearts at all, when Ma Teng was in Xiliang, the two sides fought many times over who was the boss of Xiliang, fighting for whether you were alive or dead, or Zhong Xuan mediated in the middle, and temporarily quelled the infighting on the condition that Ma Teng entered the court as an official.
But Ma Teng's son Ma Chao was not convinced by Han Sui, and always made a mistake with Han Sui, this time Ma Chao proposed to lead troops to rescue his father back to Xiliang, Han Sui was not happy at that time, an old one just drove away, this little one gave him a headache, you get the old one back, then do you still have the status of your boss? So, he simply didn't do anything, agreed to Ma Chao's request, and then directly mutinied, broke the foundation of the Ma family, and completely solved the troubles of Xiliang.
This change was simply too unexpected for Liu. Because according to common sense, Ma Chao and Cao Cao did not deal with each other, and Han Sui suddenly betrayed the Ma family's father and son, so of course he was on Cao Cao's side.
Liu Chu was about to convey this great change to Lu Peng, but in Xiliang, his Jinyi Wei did not spy at all, so there was no carrier pigeon, so Liu Chu was suspicious, left his entourage, and came to a golden cicada to escape from Tongguan, wanting to convey this great change back.
As a result, I ran into Zhao Yun halfway through.
Of course, this is the first half of Ma Chao's news that Liu knows, and there is no second half.
When Zhao Yun heard this, he was overjoyed, because he could rest assured that Ma Chao's 60,000 horses were his disguised allies rather than enemies.
As a result, Liu Chu, who was too smart, said to Zhao Yun: "Although Ma Chao raided Xu Du, Han Sui cut off Ma Chao's back road, so Ma Chao became a lost dog, and what if Ma Chao surrendered to Cao Cao at this time?" ”
Zhao Yun was also in trouble at that time, this is right, if Ma Chao surrenders to Cao Cao, it will not be good.
"Again, Han Sui has already occupied Xiliang, what if he and Cao Cao form an alliance to the east?"
"So what to do?" Zhao Yun is an honest person, he is definitely a good hand at fighting and killing, but in terms of this person's deceit, he is definitely the mentally retarded side. was said by Liu Chu, and he was blindfolded at that time.
"Therefore, now the team of the four generals must not return to the east, it must be nailed here, and it must be guarded against the messenger from Han Suidong, in case he joins Cao Cao's camp to our detriment."
Liu's request is also normal.
"I will go back immediately, and ask to persuade Ma Chao again, and take advantage of his desperate situation to win him to join us." This is the key, when Ma Chao is cornered, it is easiest to fight.
Zhao Yun thought about it for a while, thinking that he was less than 8,000 soldiers, and even if he returned to the battlefield, it would not have much impact on the entire battle situation, and if he could block Han Sui's messenger and let him get in touch with Cao Cao a few days later in the evening, this was the key. At that time, the third brother will have plenty of time to deal with this matter that may affect the situation of the battle.
As a result, Liu Chu ran away non-stop, and Zhao Yun began to implement the blockade of Han Sui's messenger to the east and block the contact between Han Sui and Cao Cao.
