However, it was not so easy for Cao Cao to retreat, because a second wave of crossbow arrows immediately flew from behind, although because it was fired from behind, the casualties caused were relatively small, but it still caused Cao Cao to suffer another five or six thousand casualties.

After Cao Cao's army rushed in, he didn't even see the other party's face, and he actually suffered nearly a quarter of the casualties.

"Damn Liu He, doesn't he say that he can't see through our plan at all? But why was an ambush laid here, and so well prepared? How many soldiers and horses should he ambush here? ”

Because Liu He's soldiers are lurking in a large circular trench with Liu He's big tent as the center and a diameter of 100 steps away, Cao Cao can't see how many men and horses are lurking on the other side at all, and can only make a rough judgment based on the density of crossbow arrows and the casualties of his own soldiers, in his opinion, the other party has ambushed at least 50,000 or 60,000 horses in the camp, and 50,000 or 60,000 people fired crossbow arrows at the same time.

However, Cao Cao was also a little relieved, because this meant that Liu He would not ambush people and horses behind them, even if it was an ambush, because there were so many crossbowmen in the camp, there would never be too many people and horses in the rear, and they would not be able to prevent their own breakthrough at all.

However, the development of events was again beyond Cao Cao's expectations, because not long after he ordered Mingjin, he saw a dense number of crossbow arrows coming from outside the camp, although the density of crossbow arrows was still a certain gap compared to that inside the camp, but this round of crossbow arrows also caused more than 3,000 casualties on his side.

"Damn! I really didn't expect that the thieves would have an ambush outside, and once the thieves caused a situation of internal and external attack, we would be in danger, so now we have to fight desperately no matter what. ”

Cao Cao thought of this, and then ordered to rush out at all costs.

However, at this moment, a feather arrow flew out of nowhere and grazed the tip of Cao Cao's nose, which frightened Cao Cao into a cold sweat.

"Lord, I'm here to protect you." At the critical moment, Cao Hong stepped forward bravely, protected Cao Cao, and then kept Cao Cao to continue to rush forward to kill.

However, at this moment, a general suddenly walked in front of him, this person didn't know Cao Cao, but he recognized Cao Hong, and laughed loudly: "Cao Hong, where to go?" Your grandfather Zhou Cang is here! The last time you attacked my camp, I lost thousands of brothers, your grandfather Zhou Cang has long wanted to find you for revenge, I don't want to meet you today, it's better to meet by chance, I will take the opportunity to ask you for some interest today, haha, Cao Hong, take your life. ”

Zhou Cang said as he slashed at Cao Hong with the long knife in his hand, Cao Hong on the one hand was to protect Cao Cao from escaping, and on the other hand, he also wanted to kill Zhou Cang Liwei, so he did not flee, but brandished a spear to block.

However, he almost ran out of strength because he fell into the horse pit and protected Cao Cao, and he couldn't block Zhou Cang's knife at all, plus he only had an ordinary wooden spear in his hand, not the iron gun he was used to, so in the process of resisting, the knife in Zhou Cang's hand cut off Cao Hong's gun without any resistance, and then as if there was no obstruction, it directly slashed into Cao Hong's shoulder, splitting Cao Hong diagonally in half from his left shoulder to his right waist.

“.…..” Cao Hong didn't even say a word, his eyes widened, with an unbelievable gaze, he was slashed to death by Zhou Cang like this.

"Zi Lian, Zi Lian ......" Seeing his cousin Cao Hong being stabbed to death by Zhou Cang, Cao Cao was grief-stricken and burst into tears, but at this time, under the protection of another cousin, Cao Chun, he continued to break through.

Zhou Cang slashed Cao Hong with a knife, and he was very proud in his heart, and laughed loudly: "Brothers, your great revenge has finally been avenged, and it is really in vain that I exchanged defense areas with General Zhang Ren today." ”

At this time, he saw Chen Zhi who came from not far away and snorted coldly: "You idiot, you are so proud of just killing a Cao Hong, do you know who you just missed?" The one who rode a white horse, wore a red robe, and had a long beard was Cao Cao, you killed Cao Hong, but let Cao Cao go, it's just because of a small loss, and you are still smug here! ”

"Huh? What the? I missed Cao Cao? Ahhhh Zhou Cang hated to slap himself a few times, and let Cao Cao slip away from under his nose like this, this is really a pity, too hateful, it is definitely the first regret in his life!

So Zhou Cang was no longer proud at this time, dragged the long knife, spread the girl and ran to Cao Cao, wanting to capture Cao Cao alive.

However, there are many people between Cao Cao and Zhou Cang, and Cao Cao is also a famous horse in the world when he sits on the horse, called Claw Huang Feidian, who can travel 1,200 miles a day, which is faster than Zhou Cang, so not only can he not catch up, but the distance between him and the other party is getting farther and farther.

Zhou Cang was very impatient when he saw this scene, and at this time he suddenly thought of an idea, and shouted loudly while running: "It's Cao Cao in the red robe, don't let him run." ”

Zhou Cang's voice was very rough, and the soldiers in the distance heard it, they hurriedly raised their eyes, and sure enough, they found that there was a person in a red robe running away, so they all ran towards Cao Cao, wanting to catch Cao Cao and make an immortal feat.

Cao Cao also heard Zhou Cang's shout, and saw that many people were rushing towards him, so he decisively untied his battle robe, threw it to the ground, and then rode his horse again.

At this time, Zhou Cang shouted again: "It's Cao Cao who has a long beard, don't let him run away." ”

Zhou Cang's shouts once again alarmed many people, and they all surrounded Cao Cao, who had a long beard, and wanted to capture Cao Cao alive.

Seeing this, Cao Cao, who was on the horse, was ruthless, took out his sword from his waist, cut off his long beard with a sword, and then continued to escape.

Although Zhou Cang was not close, a pair of eyes were staring at Cao Cao, so Cao Cao's series of actions could not hide from him at all, so he shouted loudly again: "It is Cao Cao who has a short beard, don't let him go." ”

“.…..” Cao Cao used to be able to cut his beard and abandon his robe, but now his beard has been cut very short, which has become the main feature, and the beard can not grow longer if it is cut off, so Cao Cao's goal has become particularly obvious again, and he has once again become the object of everyone's pursuit and interception.

"My life is on hold", seeing that he gradually fell into the encirclement, and Zhou Cang gradually caught up, Cao Cao couldn't help but sigh secretly: "I cut my beard and abandoned my robe today, I was extremely embarrassed, and I still couldn't escape this catastrophe after all, Sima Zhongda, why did you win a big victory in the last battle, but this time you let me be defeated?" Could it be that you are deliberately trying to frame me? Because I trust you so much, and entrust Xu Du to you temporarily, do you repay me like this? ”
