Cao Cao's commanding ability and strategy are no worse than Ye Zhao's, and it stands to reason that there should have been a dragon and tiger battle between the two sides.

However, this decisive battle did not last long, although it was short, but the excitement and intensity of it were quite eye-catching.

When Hua Xiong led the cavalry to rush into a phalanx of archers, although the archers phalanx were destroyed, Hua Xiong's cavalry fell down in pieces without warning at the moment of rushing into the phalanx.

"Trapped!?" Beside Ye Zhao, several generals showed strange expressions on their faces, this trap was a sharp weapon that Ye Zhao used to deal with the Hu people, but he didn't expect it to be used on his own body now.

Hua Xiong's 5,000 cavalry, after a tough battle with Cao Chun, could not escape the destruction after all, Hua Xiong fell off his horse, was trapped in the archer phalanx, and took the fallen cavalry to fight with the swarming Cao army around him.

And at this time, the Cao army in front began to rout.

Needless to say, Ye Zhaojun's shield array is strong, Ye Zhaojun's average quality of soldiers is also cultivated through professional training and diet, and the combat quality and physical strength far exceed the elite of this era.

After the strength of the Guanzhong soldiers and the loss of their own archers to suppress them, the arrows of the Guanzhong soldiers fell unscrupulously, and every moment there were patches of Cao army being harvested like leeks in the field.

Some soldiers began to flee in all directions, and some began to flee to the city, when the commanders of the two sides were similar, what was tested on the battlefield was the ability and quality of the soldiers, and in this regard, the Cao army, which had lost its elite, was obviously unable to compare with the well-trained and experienced Guanzhong soldiers.

Not long after the fall of Huaxiong's cavalry, the battlefield completely collapsed.

"Lord, withdraw!" Xun Yu looked at the battle situation in front of him, sighed weakly, bowed to Cao Cao and said, "The minister is willing to judge the Lord!" ”

When Cao Cao heard this, he said astringently: "Where can you withdraw?" ”

"General Cao Hong!" Xun You looked at Cao Hong on the side.

Cao Hong nodded, couldn't help but say, pulled Cao Cao and left, Xun Yu glanced at Xun Yu, did not speak, Xun Yu nodded silently, turned around and walked towards the city, while Xun You retreated into the city and organized the rout army to defend layer by layer.

The whole Suiyang City has been in chaos, this Suiyang, back then Ye Zhao was able to govern the place, Ye Zhao's official reputation in Suiyang was good, whether it was the gentry in the city or the people, Ye Zhao was quite recognized, although it has been more than 20 years now, if it were not for Ye Zhao's soldiers coming to the city, perhaps, these things would be selectively forgotten by these people, but now, Ye Zhao came, and he came with the general trend, the gentry in this city naturally quickly recalled the friendship with Ye Zhao back then, and changed their flags one after another. took the servants to the streets, intercepted Cao Jun everywhere, robbed the treasury, and even killed people directly towards the palace, wanting to capture Liu Xieli and make a great contribution.

Some people saw Xun Yu coming back, and they led their troops to come, wanting to capture Xun Yu, but although the Cao army was defeated, the Cao army soldiers were by no means humiliated by this rabble, and they couldn't beat Ye Zhaojun, but it was no problem to deal with a group of family guards who had never even been on the battlefield, and they just vented the resentment in their chests.

Xun Yu didn't pay attention to these people, didn't go home, but went straight to the palace.

In the palace, Liu Xie had already heard the chaos outside the palace, and when he was in a hurry, when he saw Xun Yu coming in, he hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Xun Yu and said, "Aiqing, how is the battle going." ”

Xun Yu took a deep breath and sighed at Liu Xie, "Defeated." ”

When Liu Xie heard this, he was slightly stunned, and then his face became pale, and he sat on the ground with a pop, and only after a long time did he look at Xun Yu and said astringently: "Sikong...... It's not ......"

"The generals in Guanzhong are too strong, and the lord is difficult to resist." Xun Yu smiled bitterly.

"Aiqing, what should I do? I don't want to go to Chang'an! Liu Xie pulled Xun Yu's sleeve and said in a hurry.

"Your Majesty, please change into these clothes." Xun Yu asked people to send up a soldier's armor prepared in advance and said: "For today's plan, Your Majesty will change into ordinary soldiers' clothes, and the minister has sent his henchmen to send His Majesty to a safe place, as for the rest of the ......"

In the future, Xun Yu has no idea, and can only hope that Liu Xie can spend the rest of his life in peace.

"The Queen Mother and the Empress have ordered someone to go and invite each other, after Your Majesty leaves Suiyang, you can be incognito, and don't reveal your identity, otherwise, you will be killed at that time!" Xun Yu looked at Liu Xie and said seriously.

"Okay, everything depends on Aiqing." Liu Xie nodded hurriedly, changed his robe at the moment, and under the escort of the family arranged by Xun Yu, he went out of the palace with Empress He and Concubine Tang and went to the outside of Suiyang City.

Xun Yu looked at the empty palace, sighed, ordered someone to block the palace, and then poured the fire oil prepared in advance on the various buildings of the palace, and after dispersing the palace people and soldiers, a person changed into Liu Xie's robe, and some of them came to the temple dedicated to the ancestors of the Han Dynasty, knelt down in front of the ranking of the twenty-four emperors of the Han Dynasty, bowed three times, and then lit a torch and began to burn the palace.

When Ye Zhao led the people into the city, what he saw was that the palace was shrouded in a fire.

"Lord, these are the eunuchs and palace maids who have just escaped from the palace, according to these people, a quarter of an hour ago, Xun Yu spread the palace with fire oil, and then dispersed the palace people and guards...... "Guan Hai came over with a group of men and horses and pressed a group of prisoners, and bowed to Ye Zhao.

When Ye Zhao heard this, he looked in the direction of the palace, shook his head and sighed: "Why bother?" ”

Xun Yu and Ye Zhao, although they do not have a deep friendship, but for Xun Yu's character and ability, Ye Zhao is still quite admired, turned his head to look at Xun Yu, with a pale face, and said in a deep voice: "Puppet Emperor Liu Xie, unwilling to fail, self-immolated in the palace, report this letter to Pegasus to Chang'an, let Your Majesty know." ”

This is probably Xun Yu's last wish, as for Liu Xie, as long as this news spreads, even if Liu Xie wants to make a comeback in the future, he will have no chance, just let him go this time, I hope this kid will be more interesting.

"Thank you, Lord." Xun Yu knelt down and bowed to Ye Zhao.

After Xun You determined that Cao Cao had fled, he completely gave up resistance, surrendered to Ye Zhao, and helped Ye Zhao persuade him to surrender to Yu Ban.

Ye Zhao stretched out his hand, helped Xun You up and said with a smile: "This is Wen Ruo's wish, Lone and Wen Ruo, there is also a bit of friendship, Wen Ruo's character and talent, Lone is deeply admired, it's a pity...... If you fail to get Wenruo, it is a lonely loss, and the loss of the community! ”

"Order someone to extinguish the fire as soon as possible, and Zhang Bang will calm the people!" With Xun You and Yu Ban's surrender, Suiyang's resistance was not too fierce, and as for Cao Cao and Xun Yu's families, Ye Zhao was not embarrassed, and the lost person was imprisoned.

As soon as Suiyang broke, Ye Zhao did not let Cao Cao go, and after a little stability, he gathered men and horses and continued to pursue Cao Cao, this is the last battle, the old friend is leaving, Ye Zhao wants to give Cao Cao a ride at the end!

It's just that before Ye Zhao left the city, a Cao army came in, and when he saw Ye Zhao, he hurriedly bowed down and surrendered, and said that he had a heavy gift.

Ye Zhao didn't pay much attention to it originally, but now that Suiyang has fallen, there are Cao Jun who surrendered everywhere, but when he saw the bloody package held by Cao Jun above his head, Ye Zhao paused and asked people to present their heads.

When the bloody package was opened, what was presented in front of Ye Zhao was a bloody human head, with angry and crazy looks in his eyes, none of this was important, the important thing was that this human head belonged to Liu Xie.

"Your Majesty!" Seeing this, Xun You's complexion changed greatly, and he fell to his knees on the ground, looking at the human head tremblingly.

Ye Zhao's face turned blue in an instant, looking at these people, he said coldly: "Where are the Queen Mother and Concubine Tang!" ”

Cao Jun, who was the leader, saw that Ye Zhao's face was wrong, and he was too frightened to speak, but Cao Jun, who wanted to invite merit on the side, didn't know how to observe words and looks, so he hurriedly took Ye Zhao to the outside of the city, and in a deserted village outside the city, Ye Zhao saw the disgraced corpses of Empress He and Concubine Tang, who had obviously been treated inhumanely before they died.

"Lord!" Xun You looked at Ye Zhao and cried bitterly.

"Wen Ruo has died in exchange for life, but he has lost at the hands of these villains!" Ye Zhao turned his head and looked at those pale Cao Jun, his eyes flashed with a chill, and he said sharply: "Kill the royal family, insult the queen mother and princess, kill me!" ”

"Prime Minister, I'm waiting for merit!" Several unknown Cao Jun struggled frantically, but which was the opponent of the Guanzhong soldiers, and in an instant, more than 20 heads fell to the ground.

Ye Zhao took a deep breath, took off the cloak from his shoulder, covered it with the corpses of He Hou and Concubine Tang, ordered someone to bury him properly, and after appeasing Xun You, let Xun You go back to the city to rest first, and continue to pursue Cao Cao with his own soldiers and horses.

On the other side, Cao Cao, under the escort of Cao Hong, Xiahoudun and others, escaped from Liang State, and went all the way to Shanyang, day and night, but when Cao Cao arrived at Shanyang, what he saw was Ye Zhao's banner, and it turned out that Shanyang had been broken by Xu Rong and Ji Ling.

Cao Cao now, there are only more than 500 people left around him, not to mention the big city, even some small cities are difficult to break, and Ye Zhao's pursuers are pressing step by step, Cao Cao can only flee again, along the way, bad news keeps coming, Jibei was broken, Taishan County was also obtained by Guo Jia, all of a sudden, Cao Cao was ruled by Ye Zhaojun in all directions.

"Don't run away!" Five days later, when Cao Cao arrived at Fuyang Pavilion, he finally sighed, at this time there were only more than 300 people left around him, and everyone was injured, Ye Zhao's pursuers were pressing step by step, there were people who were proficient in tracking Cao Cao's traces, and the cities on all sides were also rounded up, in this case, Cao Cao had no way to escape, Cao Cao was ready to end up with Ye Zhao in this Fuyang Pavilion.

"Lord!" Xu Chu helped Cao Cao down from his horse, looked at Cao Cao and said: "I still have a chance, Qingzhou is now a wasteland, as long as we escape into Qingzhou and throw ourselves from the sea to Jiangdong, there may not be no way to live." ”

"What can you do if you flee to Koto?" Cao Cao licked his chapped lips and looked at the smoke-filled horizon in the distance, Ye Zhao's pursuers had already arrived, and Cao Cao said abruptly: "Zhongkang, I'm tired." ”

When Xu Chu heard this, he was silent, he was a rough man and couldn't understand Cao Cao's heart at this moment.

A moment later, the black-pressed Guanzhong Army appeared outside the Fuyang Pavilion and surrounded the Fuyang Pavilion.

Just as he was in advance, a team of men and horses came out of the crowd and came to Cao Cao's army, as the first general, straddled the dark clouds and stepped on the moon horse, wore a sword at his waist, and smiled at Cao Cao: "Brother Meng De, don't come unharmed." ”

"I'm very sick, you thief, you are really ruthless enough, you don't have a chance at all!" Cao Cao looked at Ye Zhao and scolded with a smile.

"Don't dare to stay." Ye Zhao turned over and dismounted, and walked straight towards Cao Cao, Xu Chu beside him wanted to stop him, but Cao Cao waved his hand to block him, and walked straight towards Ye Zhao.

"I know that you can, over the years, you have begun to follow my Guanzhong system, build industry and agriculture, if you are given time to solve the internal troubles, it will not be easy to break you when the time comes." Ye Zhao sat on the ground with Cao Cao, looked at the soldiers behind Cao Cao, turned his head to look at Cao Cao and said, "Liu Xie is dead, Wen Ruo is also dead, Gongda voted for me." ”

"You are killing the king, be careful of being crusaded by the people of the world." When Cao Cao heard this, a touch of sadness flashed in his eyes, and then he said casually.

"I didn't kill it, Wen Ruo wanted to protect Liu Xie, let him escape from Suiyang disguised as a soldier, and burned the palace to commit suicide, as for Liu Xie, it was your people who killed him, I was ready to let him die, but I blamed him for his bad life." Ye Zhao shook his head: "I don't carry this pot." ”

"Behind the pot?" Cao Cao was curious: "What do you say?" ”

"Generations have received it, referred to as carrying the blame." Ye Zhao said with a smile: "Back in Luoyang, I didn't take the blame for you. ”

"Nonsense, don't insult my innocence." Cao Cao rolled his eyes and said.

"Innocence?" Ye Zhao glanced at Cao Cao up and down a few times, and said with a smile: "Every time you go to the Drunken Immortal Mansion without money, I pay for you, and you dare to order the most expensive wine, the best woman, do you have any misunderstanding of these two words?" ”

"Joke, don't think I don't know, the drunken immortal building is clearly opened by you." Cao Cao glared at Ye Zhao and retorted: "Since you regard me as a chess piece, you should always spend some price to serve me as a chess piece so that I can die for you." ”

"Remember that?" When Ye Zhao heard this, he was slightly stunned and looked at Cao Cao.

"I will never forget it in the next life, I regard you as a friend, but you regard me as a chess piece, Yuan Benchu, the fourth and third princes, don't have such a big breath!" Cao Cao said angrily.

"Primordial?" Ye Zhao sighed: "So you killed him?" ”

"He was angry with himself, what does it have to do with me?" Cao Cao said disdainfully: "The original heart is arrogant, how can you accept being defeated by me?" ”

"What about you?" Ye Zhao looked at Cao Cao and said, "Have you ever thought of mixing with me and making you the general of the expedition to the west, isn't this your long-cherished wish?" ”

"It's useless, the Huns and Xianbei are no longer played with by you, and the Western Regions are crippled by you, what is the use of me wanting to conquer the Western General? Besides, I can't imagine me groveling to you. Cao Cao glared at Ye Zhao fiercely: "Now my greatest wish is to defeat you." ”

"It's impossible in this life." Ye Zhao looked at the remaining Cao Jun in the distance and said, "Surrender now, mix with me, in the next life, how about I mix with you?" ”

"never believe in this, defeat is defeat, what's there to say, it's just my wife and children's little ......"

"Your wife, I raise her!" Ye Zhao said directly: "If these people are willing to surrender, I can reuse them!" ”

"Thanks." Cao Cao nodded: "With your words, after I die, I can also leave with some peace of mind." ”

"Really?" Looking at Cao Cao, who stood up and walked back and forth, Ye Zhao couldn't help but shout.

"Ye Xiuming is a hero in the world, when did he become such a mother-in-law?" Cao Cao waved his hand casually and said, "After I die, bury me in Qian County." ”

"Good!" Ye Zhao stood up, watched Cao Cao return to the main formation, slowly drew his sword, and then killed himself with a horizontal sword, sighed silently in his heart, and said to the remaining Xu Chu and the others: "I have promised Meng De that as long as you are willing to surrender, the official title will not change!" ”

Xu Chu, Xiahoudun, and Cao Hong silently turned over their horses, and after sorting out their armor, they raised the weapons in their hands high and roared: "Sons, kill with me!" ”

"Kill~"

Three hundred soldiers frantically launched the final charge against Ye Zhaojun.

Ye Zhao sighed, waved his hand, and behind him, a rain of arrows swept the ground, overwhelmingly falling towards the last Cao army......
