Cao Ren led the army away, and Le Jin turned around and asked the soldiers around him, "Is there any news from the lord?" ”

The soldiers surrendered, "The news just came that the lord and the army have just arrived in Xinzheng." ”

Just arrived in Xinzheng? Hearing this, Le Jin frowned and walked towards the gate, muttering in his mouth, "What's the matter, my lord, why is this march so slow?" ”

Cao Ren led the army to leave the Tiger Prison Pass, and Yang Shuo's side immediately got the news, so he ordered Qin Qiong and Yang Zaixing to wait for an opportunity to intercept and kill Cao Ren in the Chenggao area. Calculating the time, the naval army under the command of Li Changgeng should have reached Guangwu City downstream, and ordered Yang Zaixing to get in touch with Li Changgeng outside the pass, and wait for Qin Qiong to entangle Cao Ren to capture the Tiger Prison Pass as quickly as possible.

Guangwu City is located on the south bank of the Yellow River, in the territory of Xingyang, Luoyang has been in a state of no one before, and there is no garrison at such an important ferry. Li Changgeng commanded 3,000 sailors from Mengjin Port downstream, after more than two days of drifting arrived at Guangwu City in the evening, on the way 3,000 sailors saw Li Changgeng's methods, and after more than 20 people died, the rest of the people arrived at Guangwu City smoothly.

The water of the Yellow River is still flowing endlessly, looking back at the thrilling past two days, Li Changgeng still has palpitations, if there is a next time, he will definitely not take this risk.

After the Tiger Pass, and then go forward about forty or fifty miles is Chenggao County, Chenggao County is adjacent to the Yellow River in the north, close to Songshan Mountain in the south, is the narrowest place in Henan, two days without seeing Cao ** to the news, and along the way did also find the traces left by Cao Hong's army, I can't help but be a little anxious, from time to time urge the soldiers and horses behind me to speed up the march.

On this day, Cao Ren's army had just passed Chenggao County, and suddenly a shocking sound of horses' hooves came, and without waiting for Cao Ren to react, the cavalry had rushed to his eyes, headed by the general in white clothes and white armor, and a snow-white war horse in his crotch, which was the most eye-catching in the entire cavalry team, and a spear in his hand danced impermeable, and there was no enemy in front of him.

Large-scale cavalry can appear in Luoyang, and the only force that can rush directly at them without meeting is Yang Shuo, who occupies Hongnong and Hedong, presumably they are going to capture Chang'an Yang Shuo has already gotten the news, and quietly ambushed here, waiting for his arrival Cao Ren.

Since he, Cao Ren, encountered Yang Shuo's ambush, thinking that Cao Hong was likely to have an accident, Cao Ren figured everything out in an instant. While ordering the army to stop the cavalry attack with all its might, he ordered people to quickly organize a battle formation, in the plains, the cavalry is a nightmare for foot soldiers, there is no effective battle formation as protection, only a few cavalry charges, defeat is a matter of early food.

Cao Ren waved the command flag and commanded his sword and shield men to surround the cavalry commanded by Zhao Yun without their lives, and at the same time ordered people to establish a circle formation in the north by the favorable terrain.

Zhao Yun is brave, the cavalry of the commander is even braver, under his leadership the four thousand cavalry is like a sharp arrow, quickly penetrating the Cao soldiers to the opposite side, and when he leads the army to turn around, the Cao army has formed a huge circle under the orderly command of Cao Ren, the sword and shield hands are outside, the spearmen are in the center, and the crossbowmen are in the center.

is worthy of being a famous commander of the army in Cao Cao's family, and he only gave Zhao Yun a chance to charge, and he finished the formation, this composure, this ability all made Zhao Yun admire.

The large formation of Cao soldiers had been formed, and it was quite unwise to continue to charge, so Zhao Yun had to stare at Cao Ren to prevent him from evacuating to the Tiger Prison Pass.

The big array on this side was about to break out, and on the other side, the nearly 20,000 foot soldiers of Commander Yang Shuo came in a hurry, and the cavalry was extremely fast, so they could catch Cao Ren off guard, and if they pulled up the foot soldiers, there was no chance to frustrate Cao Ren's spirit.

Yang Shuo came to the front of the formation surrounded by Qin Qiong, Master Father Yan, Liu Ji, and Shi Jin, looking at Cao Ren, who had completed the formation and commanded in the center, he was embarrassed, Cao Cao was able to rise rapidly in the early stage to benefit from these relatives around him, whether it was Xiahou Xuan, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, or Cao Chun, Cao Xiu, Xiahou Shang, etc. in the later stage, who made great contributions to Cao Wei Jiangshan, but unfortunately the tiger father and dog son, and when Cao Zhen died, no one in the huge Cao clan could resist Sima Yi who looked at the wolf Gu .

A huge "Yang" banner fluttering in the wind, and under the young age and many generals into the guard, presumably that person must be Yang Shuo, thinking of Cao Hong's safety, Cao Ren hurriedly asked: "You are Yang Shuo, Yang Defang?" ”

"Exactly so!" Yang Shuo nodded, and then said with a smile: "Cao Zixiao, don't come unharmed!" ”

As soon as his identity was revealed, it seemed that Yang Shuo had already seen through the decision of the eldest brother to attack Hongnong, and sighed and said in a deep voice: "My brother Cao Hong can wait for the others? ”

"Isn't it ridiculous that you invaded Luoyang for no reason, but came to inquire about me?" Regarding Cao Hong's whereabouts, Yang Shuo neither said that he knew, nor did he say that he didn't know, he had a grudge with Cao Cao, Cao Hong must have an ability above 80, and he would not let it go, and if he killed him, he could have a chance to draw an item.

Yang Shuo didn't say that it was okay, but when he said it, he reminded Cao Ren and shouted, "We will be ordered by the Son of Heaven to enter Luoyang, and you will lead the army to block it, but you want to rebel?" ”

Depend on! Yang Shuo secretly pinched his thighs, and got carried away for a while, how could he forget this, Cao Cao coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, no matter how big the excuse in the world can be bigger than the Son of Heaven?

"Lord, you can't let Cao Ren talk anymore, otherwise the army's morale will be weakened, and the situation will be worrying, so it's better to attack quickly!" Liu Ji made a suggestion.

In ancient times, the first thing to do was to find a name for the expedition, which is why Cao Cao wanted to welcome the Son of Heaven into Xudu, and Zhuge Liang scolded Wang Lang to death before the battle, Yang Shuo also knew that he didn't notice it for a while, so Cao Ren took the lead, and quickly ordered Qin Qiong to command the attack on Cao Ren.

Qin Qiong took over the order flag, and then the earth-shattering horn sounded, and a team of men and horses lined up in an offensive formation according to Qin Qiong's command. Soon, 20,000 soldiers finished lining up according to the requirements, and shouted in unison: "Drink, drink, drink"

Qin Qiong stood in the middle and back of the array, and he looked around left and right. At this time, a huge array of arrows had been laid around him. The front arrow formation is like an unfolding arrow, and the main forces are assembled in the center, which belongs to a relatively conventional offensive formation, and the attack and defense are relatively average, but the victory is at will. Arrange the troops, between the soldiers and the soldiers, between the ranks and the ranks can not be too dense, you need to leave a certain distance between the distance, all kinds of weapons can be used, the formation can change.

After the entire front and arrow formation was completed, all the sergeants shouted in unison, "kill, kill, kill" three times. There was a bang bang from the Central Military Department, and the entire front arrow formation was immediately silent, and all the sergeants were waiting for the battle, without making a sound.

Zhao Yun on the other side received the order and was also ready to attack, it was also a sharp arrow formation, but instead of opening its wings like Qin Qiong's infantry phalanx, the two wings were tightly closed, in the shape of an awl, and the penetration was stronger.
