Xu Chu went crazy, walking like flying, the big knife slashed ruthlessly in the crowd with a compelling coldness, as soon as he raised the knife, he was stunned, and when he dropped the knife, there was a bang, and every time he swung it, he could bring up a rain of blood.

Xu Du is like a tiger walking on a flock of sheep, the people who kill are on their backs, the yellow scarves are killed, and the wild goose knife is like the sickle of death, and it will die if it touches it, without any suspense.

The Tiger Guard and the Tiger and Leopard Rider were Cao Cao's personal guards, and when they saw them join the battle, the other soldiers were also greatly encouraged, and the fighters were ignited at once.

Zhao Yun quickly glanced around, and he didn't love fighting, so he hurriedly ordered the troops to retreat.

Come fast, go fast, although the tiger and leopard cavalry and tiger guard burst out with amazing power, but after the war, a statistic, or Cao Cao's side suffered more casualties, just found as many as five or six thousand corpses.

After withdrawing for more than ten miles, Tai Shi Ciwu complained to himself, "Zilong, why did you quit the army in a good manner?" ”

Tai Shici and Cao Hong were fighting when they were inseparable, and they couldn't wait to fight Cao Hong to death for a while.

Zhao Yun pointed to the soldiers beside him, "Our soldiers are obviously inferior to Cao Jun's combat strength, you have also seen that when Cao Cao's tiger and leopard cavalry and tiger guards joined the battle, the situation was already a little out of control, and if we continue to fight, I am afraid it will not be so easy to leave." ”

If Yan Yun was brought in, Zhao Yun would never show weakness to Cao Cao.

But right now, it's not wise to keep fighting hard.

Guan Hai was also a little breathless: "Do you just let Cao Cao go?" ”

Zhao Yun explained, "Originally, the purpose of our troops this time was to let Cao Cao withdraw his troops, and he should mainly attack and disturb, so I never thought of a head-on duel with Cao Jun. ”

Now that the goal has been achieved, and even if the team is taken away from Ge Po at this moment, it will not arouse Cao Cao's suspicion.

Cao Cao must have thought that these 'yellow turbans' were so frightened that they didn't dare to stay in Gepo anymore when they saw him, and wandered elsewhere.

…………

As soon as Cao Cao was driven away, Xu Shu received a letter from Jia Xu that night.

After reading the letter in a hurry, Xu Shu immediately burned the letter, and then went to see Zhang Xiu.

Zhang Xiu was drinking with Hu Che'er in the house, and just drove Cao Cao away, Zhang Xiu was in a good mood and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"General, it's really good Yaxing." Xu Shu pushed the door and walked in with a smile.

Zhang Xiu laughed, "I wanted to invite you along, but seeing that you were busy, I didn't bother you." ”

Zhang Xiu beckoned to Xu Shu, "Let's go together, tonight, you and I will rest when we are drunk." ”

Xu Shu sighed, "General, are you happy too early, yes, Cao Cao is gone, it won't be long before Cao Cao will regroup his troops and make a comeback, our situation has not improved, I advise the general to plan well for the future." ”

Zhang Xiuyi frowned and sighed, "What Mr. said, I haven't thought about it, but the current situation, you also know, Liu Biao only gave Wancheng to me, if you take advantage of the situation to seize Nanyang, it will be equivalent to turning your face with Liu Biao, but Liu Biao can't afford to offend, only with the land of Wancheng, the money and food of the soldiers and horses are limited, and it is really difficult for us to stretch." ”

Xu Shu said, "What the general said is true, the current situation is a dead end, Liu Biao wants to use us, but also guards against us, Wancheng is the northern barrier of Jingzhou, if Cao Cao takes it, they can drive straight in, and then threaten Xiangyang, this is by no means what Liu Biao wants to see; Liu Biao did not trust the general, and the grain and grass supplied in peacetime were only enough for three or four thousand soldiers and horses to barely sustain it. ”

Hu Che'er opened his mouth and scolded, "Damn, Liu Biao, this old immortal thing, is really cunning." ”

Zhang Xiu's face was full of sadness, but he was helpless.

Being used and restricted by others is not at all pleasant.

Xu Shu saw that the heat was almost over, and said, "I have a sentence, I don't know whether to say it or not." ”

"Sir has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it, why be so restrained."

Xu Shu said, "If this continues, we will only be tired of responding to orders, and in the end we will either be destroyed by Cao Cao, or by Liu Biao, the general and Cao Cao have resolved their mortal enemies, it is better for us to form an alliance with Jiangdong to help Sun Ce take revenge and seize Jingzhou, Sun Ce values love and righteousness, and is heroic and heroic, and will never treat us badly." ”

"An alliance with Koto?" Zhang Xiu was stunned, he had never considered this.

Hu Che'er muttered: "Then Jiangdong Sun Ce, can you count on it?" I've heard that after Sun Jian's death, Jiangdong was in chaos, and he was still too busy to take care of himself, so I am afraid it would be difficult to compete with Liu Biao. ”

As soon as Hu Che'er's voice fell, a small colonel ran into the door, pointed to the ground with one leg, and said in a loud voice, "General, the little overlord Sun Ce's troops entered the Sanjiangkou, and he captured two cities in a row yesterday, and he will enter Jiangxia in a few days." ”

"Oh?" Zhang Xiu and Hu Che'er were both surprised.

Xu Shu smiled slightly, "If Jiangdong is really chaotic and sluggish, how can it suddenly send troops?" In my opinion, they were just deliberately confusing Liu Biao before, and then, Liu Biao was busy enough. ”

Zhang Xiu was still a little undecided, "Let's take a look first, let's talk about it, maybe how much ability this Sun Ce has." ”

Zhang Xiu is more cautious and doesn't want to bet easily, if Sun Ce is really powerful, Xu Shu's suggestion is worth considering.

"Report ......"

After a while, another reporter came in, Zhang Xiu was a little puzzled, and said in his heart, "What's wrong today?" ”

"What's the matter?"

"General, a group of people from outside the door said that they were yellow turbans in the Gepo area, and they came to defect to the general."

"Oh?"

Zhang Xiuzheng is worried about the lack of major generals around him, and the troops are thin, which is a good thing that fell from the sky.

Busy asked, "How many people are coming?" ”

"One or two thousand!"

"Okay." Zhang Xiu, who was happy, was overjoyed, stopped drinking wine, and rushed to the south gate with Hu Che'er and Xu Shu in person.

The leader of the team was Guan Hai, as soon as he saw Zhang Xiu, Guan Hai clenched his fists, "I'm waiting for the special to defect, and I hope the general can accept it." ”

Xu Shu stood behind Zhang Xiu and looked behind Guan Hai, trying to find Zhao Yun from the crowd, but he didn't see it.

These people wiped their foreheads with yellow scarves, their hair was scattered, their helmets were crooked, they wore everything, and the blades in their hands were also varied, swords, swords, halberds, clubs, hoes, noisy, and messy.

"Are you the Yellow Turban from the Gepo area?"

Zhang Xiu was very happy in her heart, but when she saw these people so embarrassed, she was also a little disappointed.

"Yes, exactly."

"As far as I know, the yellow scarves in the Gepo area have already surrendered to Zhao Yun." Hu Che'er interjected, quite skeptical about the identities of these people.

Guan Hai said, "We came from Xuzhou, and it was precisely because the yellow scarves in the Gepo area defected to Zhao Yun that we wanted to go there and settle down." ”

"I see." Hu Che'er nodded, "Before, you attacked Cao Bing from behind and cut off Cao Cao's grain road, right?" ”

It was precisely because of this that Zhang Xiu's pressure was relieved, forcing Cao Cao to hastily withdraw his troops back to Xudu.
