Chapter 679: Zhang and Lu Centrifugal (II)
"Good!" When Cao Xiu heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked, so he accepted the order.
After a while, Cao Xiu led hundreds of fast horsemen to rush out of the north gate and pursued. After a period of time, I haven't seen the figure of Huang Zhong's father and son, who knows that at this time, there was a sudden fire in the distance, Cao Xiu couldn't help but change color, and before he could react, he suddenly killed in the Zhang Xiu camp in the east. Cao Xiudun's complexion changed drastically, and he soon guessed that the fire of Shicai was caused by Huang Zhong, in order to attract Zhang Xiu's deployment and take the opportunity to escape!
"Uncle Huang! With this mere measure, you want me Cao Wenlie to be helpless, and you can't help but underestimate me! Cao Xiu's eyes lit up, and he immediately ordered a soldier, transferred half of the soldiers and horses, and went around to the east to attract Zhang Xiu's deployment. The soldier listened to the order, and did not slack off, and quickly bypassed the soldiers. As for Cao Xiu, he continued to whip Pegasus, leading the troops to rush to the place where the fire started.
At the same time, in the darkness of the night ahead, a carriage full of dry wood was galloping at a high speed. The man who drove the horse was also very good, he could drive with the moonlight in the sky alone, and the torch in Huang Xu's hand had long been extinguished by him with water.
Suddenly, Huang Xu heard the sound of hooves behind him, and couldn't help frowning and said, "Dad!" It seems that someone is still chasing after him. ”
"Oh? Our father and son have already attracted Zhang Xiu's deployment, but the general not only did not panic, but also knew how to divide the troops, one team led away, and the other team came to chase, such a good general who is good at using soldiers, I am afraid that there are only two in the Cao army in Kuicheng. Huang Zhong smiled when he heard this, and said unhurriedly.
Huang Xu listened, raised his eyebrows, and answered: "Kwai City is empty, Xiahou Xuan will not dare to leave lightly." It seems that it is Cao Wenlie who came! ”
"Well, this son is young, but he is scheming, and he is proficient in the way of soldiers, and he will definitely not be a thing in the pool in the future!" Huang Zhong nodded heavily and said with admiration. In history, Cao Xiu was in the Cao Wei Dynasty, and he was the official to the position of the Great Sima, and was even called the Cao family's 'Thousand Miles Horse' by Cao Cao!
"Humph! Daddy inevitably thinks too highly of this person! I think that Cao Wenlie is just a diagram! But the child is cured, and within three years, he must compete with him!! Huang Xu snorted coldly, and then drank it vigorously. Huang Zhong heard that Huang Xu had a bit of a desire to win, and couldn't help but be secretly happy, and his heart was full of relief. Speaking of which, since Huang Xu saw Cao Xiu, perhaps because the two were of the same age, Cao Xiu captured Huang Xu again that day. Therefore, Huang Xu unknowingly regarded Cao Xiu as a competitor, and later saw that his father appreciated Cao Xiu quite a lot. Huang Xu was even more angry. Unbeknownst to him, Huang Xu was inspired by this, and his condition improved a lot.
"Hahaha! Naturally, Wu'er will not be inferior to a small clan member of the Cao family! Don't worry, when you are cured, your father will be strict with you, so be ready! Huang Zhong said with a laugh.
Huang Xu's eyes immediately widened, and he shouted: "Daddy, don't worry!" The baby will not let you down!! ”
But just as Huang Xu's words fell, he suddenly heard a sound of hooves approaching suddenly, Huang Zhong's eyes suddenly shot a cold light, turned over and took the bow and crossbow, and didn't look at it, but with the sound of hooves, he pulled the bow and shot.
only heard the sound of the bowstring 'pop', it was Cao Xiu who came in a hurry, and was startled in an instant, and when he fixed his eyes, he saw a flying arrow flying towards him, and hurriedly turned his head to dodge. In an instant, the flying arrow swept by, and Cao Xiu was frightened for a while, but he didn't get angry, because he knew that if Huang Zhong had the intention to shoot him, he wouldn't even have a chance to dodge just now!
"Cao Zilie! I have repeatedly blocked Lu Bu for Cao Jun, and the grievances have been cleared! The so-called road is facing the sky, each going to one side, you come to chase my father and son again, don't blame Huang for not blaming the affection!! I only heard Mr. Huang's shouting suddenly.
When Cao Xiu heard this, he hurriedly shook his color, and in order to show his sincerity, he hurriedly reined in his horse, and then drank a group of soldiers who had caught up from behind.
"Uncle Huang!! Listen to me, my lord is eloquent and wise, and he is a hero of the world. With your skills, if you are in my Cao army, you will definitely be able to be reused! Here, not only General Xiahou dares to guarantee with the head of the neck, but the kid Cao Wenlie is also willing to use this head to guarantee!! And General Xiahou has sent someone to Wancheng to summon Zhang Ji, as short as seven or eight days, as fast as half a month, Zhang Ji will be able to arrive!! Cao Xiu shouted fiercely.
As soon as these words came out, Huang Zhong couldn't help but change color secretly, his heart fluttered for a while, and he hesitated a little. How do you know that Huang Xu remembered the shame of being captured by Cao Xiu that day, and he didn't want to think about it, so he immediately scolded loudly: "What is the difference between you and the evil traitor Dong Zhuo when the Cao family holds the Son of Heaven hostage and wants to control the dynasty!? Our father and son will never be in contact with you again!! Cao Wenlie will go back quickly, one day, I will be ashamed of Huang Xu~~!! ”
Listening to Huang Xu's voice full of young man's blood and strength, Cao Xiu couldn't help but change color when he heard it, he didn't expect Huang Xu to have such a big grudge against himself, but he already regretted it, and he didn't know how to answer.
"Hahahaha~~!! Wu'er is right!! Although my Huang family is not a general, it is also based on loyalty!! Cao Cao's ambition is majestic, and he wants to coerce the Son of Heaven to make the princes, and the world knows it!! How could my Huang family father and son take refuge!! Wudi, only to hear Huang Zhong laugh happily and excitedly. When Cao Xiu heard this, he was shocked and angry, and shouted loudly, when he was about to ride his horse to chase after him, he heard the bowstring again, and he was so frightened that Lian was holding the horse, but Huang Zhong just pulled the bow and shook the string. When Cao Xiu reacted, he heard the sound of killing behind him, but there was a light horse under Zhang Xiu who was killing.
"Damn!!" Cao Xiuji scolded angrily, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly dragged the horse and ordered to withdraw.
At the fifth watch in the night, the sky was just dawning, Xiahou waited in the enemy tower for a long time, although he saw Zhang Xiujun go to pursue, but he did not dare to raise troops lightly, he was so anxious that he suddenly heard the soldiers come to report, Cao Xiu and others rushed back, and hurriedly rushed to the city to visit, but saw Cao Xiu and a man waiting for the wolf to return. Xiahoudun knew that it was not good, shook his head and sighed lightly.
However, it was said that at the same time that the Huang father and son left Kwai City, on the border between Runan and Chen, on a plain, Cao Ren's more than 10,000 troops were confronting Yuan Shu's tens of thousands of troops. However, Yuan Shu's strength is twice that of Cao Ren, but in the arrangement of troops, Cao Ren is superior, although the number is not as good as Yuan Shu's army, but the formation is strict and neat, and the deployment of each army is also energetic and imposing.
At this time, Yuan Shu was watching Cao Ren's army formation in the front army's large array, and he couldn't help but be secretly surprised.
"This Cao Zixiao can serve as the chief general under the command of Cao Agui, and he is really not an ordinary person. This is a tight army of 10,000,000 troops, but it has put on the power of tens of thousands of troops, which is even better than our army! Yuan Shu flicked his earrings with one finger and said coldly with his eyes. When Yuan Yi next to him heard this, he immediately looked shocked, and said in a condensed voice: "As the lord said, this Cao Zixiao is good at marching and arranging troops, deploying contingencies, and has the style of Han Xin, who was known as 'unparalleled national warriors' back then. I think we still don't have to act rashly! It's good to wait and see what happens! ”
Hearing this, Yuan Shu raised his eyebrows, but he was a little skeptical: "Is this Cao Zixiao really so good?" It can be known that Han Xin is victorious, and the attack must be won, even Gaozu sighs to himself. I'll also try how much skill this Cao Zixiao has! ”
When Yuan Yi heard this, he couldn't help but change color secretly, knowing that the arrogant Yuan Shu had committed a temper again, and hurriedly explained the benefits: "The lord is slow!" These two armies are facing each other, and the enemy has a master in charge, and a battle for a while is extremely important, but if there is a mistake, it is likely that it has not affected the entire battle situation! I thought that the lord might as well stand still first, wait for Zhang Xun and Qiao Rui to work together to defeat the Sun family, and then join forces to encircle and annihilate him, wouldn't it be good!? "As soon as Yuan's last words came out, Yuan Shu was not an ignorant person, but he also heard the truth, and was about to agree, when suddenly an urgent report came from the meteor horse, saying that Nanyang had been broken by Cao Cao not long ago, and at this time Cao Cao had already divided his army, and he personally led the army to Yingchuan to rescue, and ordered the first fierce general under his command 'Ancient Evil Come' Dian Wei, to come to Runan to rescue!"
"What Nanyang has been breached!? Wow~~!! Yuan Yin, you are a waste who has more than enough success and more than failure!! When Yuan Shu heard this, he couldn't help but be angry, and his whole face instantly turned red with anger. At this time, I heard someone report that Cao Cao had announced that Yuan Yin was wearing a dragon robe that day, and he was dying, but he still wanted to call the emperor a rebellion, and he taught him to secretly send a message, saying that the Yuan family had the heart to be the emperor, Yuan Yin was just a puppet, and he Yuan Shu was the real mastermind behind the scenes. As soon as this news came out, all parts of the world were furious, and it is said that Liu Biao in Jingzhou and Liu Miao in Yangzhou had the momentum to send troops, and began to garrison troops at the border with Yuan Shu's jurisdiction.
"Fuck!! Liu Biao and Liu Xuan, the two cunning thieves, have always been safe with me at the beginning, and Liu Biao even intended to ally with me several times, but now I was attacked by Cao Cao, but they all came to fall into the well!! Wow~~!! When I solve Cao Cao, I will take Yangzhou first, and then Jingzhou, and take the opportunity to dominate the land of Jiangnan and Jiangdong!! At that time, even if I Yuan Shu wants to be the emperor, what can the people of the world do to me~!? As soon as Yuan Shu's words came out, Yuan Yu suddenly changed color, but the soldiers around him listened to it, but they were all excited, after all, once Yuan Shu became the emperor, it means that each of them can soar and rise step by step, and may even become a founding meritorious service, a celebrity!
But Yuan Yi didn't think like this, and hurriedly persuaded Yuan Shu: "Lord! Now that the Han family is still there, the time has not yet come, if the right person is called the emperor, it must no longer be said lightly, otherwise it will inevitably lead to annihilation!! ”
Yuan Yi persuaded bitterly, which caused Yuan Shu's displeasure. When Yuan Shu heard this, he immediately glared at him and shouted coldly: "Shut up!" I Yuan Highway is the son of the Mandate of Heaven, carried by heaven, will become the emperor to dominate the industry, whoever dares to go against me, will be punished by God!! Today I will show you the real skills of my Yuan Highway!! ”
Yuan Shu's temperament was together, and there was a bit of madness in his eyes, Yuan Yi saw it clearly, but when he thought of his own words, it had the opposite effect. At this time, Yuan Shuying shouted again: "Can the generals dare to fight with the Cao thief!? With the cowardice of the rats in the world, teach them to know that my Yuan Shu Department is the army of the king, invincible and invincible!! ”
"Battle~!!" "Battle~!!" "Battle~!!" "Battle~!!" "Battle~!!" "Battle~!!" "Battle~!!" "Battle~!!" "Battle~!!"
Sure enough, as soon as Yuan Shu's voice fell, all his soldiers were eager to express themselves, and they raised their weapons one after another, raised their arms and shouted, and their fighting spirit was also surging and exciting!
"Hahahaha~~!! Have you seen it, this is the army of the king of my Yuan Highway, there are such soldiers and horses, don't say Jiangnan and Jiangdong, even if it is the whole world, even if you take it, it is like a treasure in your pocket!! I saw Yuan Shu excited and laughing. Yuan Yu saw it, but his face turned blue, and he couldn't say half a sentence for a while.
At the same time, in the Cao army's array, the generals saw that Yuan Shujun's momentum was suddenly shocked, and the sound of killing was like a tide, and their faces all changed. However, Cao Ren was still as steady as Mount Tai, his eyes were terrifying, and he said to the generals: "The morale of the enemy army has risen, and cowardice will only mess up the formation, but it is better to be just a bluff, prepare for it, and when it is eager to kill, then give a thunderous blow, when the head is drunk, just when its sharp spirit is frustrated, our army will counterattack, which is the way to attack the strong with the weak." ”
