It will take about four or five days to get from Xiangyang to Runan no matter how fast it is, not to mention that Liu Zhang is just on precaution and doesn't really think that Cao Cao will definitely attack Runan. Therefore, Liu Zhang's speed of leading the troops is not fast, and it can even be said that it is a little slower. In this way, you can also get the news from the south, if the south is really suffering heavy losses, Liu Zhang can only withdraw to Jiangxia, and then it will depend on the situation. After all, there are weaknesses in one's own forces, and there is no shame in being soft when it is time to be soft.

Regarding the battlefield in Runan, Liu Zhang only met the messenger when he was about to arrive in Wancheng. Looking at the letter in his hand, Gao Shun suffered a fiasco at Ruyin, killing and wounding more than 4,000 people, and then Cao's army attacked Shangcai in a big way, and the siege battle had been fought for several days. Wu Yi, the Taishou of Nanyang, led the army to support, and the current situation is unknown.

After reading it, Li Ru said: "The lord can order Meng Qi and Gongyi to march quickly to support, and Shang Cai's Wen Ping and Gao Shun who went later should be able to hold on." Li Ru was also surprised in his heart, this Cao Cao is worthy of being a hero, and he is really powerful in using soldiers.

Liu Zhang nodded and said to the people on the side: "Meng Qi and Gongyi led the two cavalry to rush to Shangcai quickly, and act when the time comes." Watching Ma Chao and Zhang Ren gallop all the way, Liu Zhang also sighed in his heart. It is no wonder that the ancients often stationed a large number of troops on the border, and finally made the border sit large. If you don't garrison a large number of troops, you will attract the enemy to attack. In the absence of an unobstructed road, this kind of thing is always difficult to deal with.

After that, Liu Zhang and the others continued to move steadily towards Runan, and the rest of them were foot soldiers, but they could not march quickly. I believe that with the support of Wu Yi and others, Wen Ping will never lose Shang Cai, after all, Wen Ping is also a famous general. In this way, Liu Zhang does not have to be so eager......

By the afternoon, Shang Cai's battle was already white-hot, and at this time, Dian Wei had already occupied the city wall, and one person was carrying a double halberd to kill all sides, and no one was his opponent at this moment. Cao Ang in the distance couldn't help nodding and watching, it seemed that he could take down Shang Cai at night.

But by this time, the flames above the tower had already burned. The black smoke filled the entire sky, and Wen Ping in the distance immediately noticed it, and a large force of cavalry immediately prepared to charge. Of course, Wu Yi in the distance also saw the black fireworks, he didn't understand whether this was a signal or something ignited by the enemy, but he had already seen in the telescope that Shang Cai couldn't hold on.

Suddenly, Wu Yi found a gust of wind and dust floating in the distance, and vaguely saw a cavalry rushing over. Looking closely, it is that Wen Ping, this time Wu Yi understands, it must be Han Song or Wen Ping's strategy, when will it not attack at this time? Seeing this, Wu Yi also blew his whistle, and the cavalry mounted their horses and rushed towards Shang Cai's city.

Cao Ang watched Dian Wei stabilize step by step, and his heart was really happy, but at this moment he also saw the black flames on the city wall, and at this moment Cao Ang chuckled in his heart, and then heard the galloping sound of horses in the distance. The sound of the earth shaking was enough to prove that there were definitely a lot of cavalry, and then another group of cavalry rushed out from the west, with a huge Wu character hanging on the banner......

"Cao Ang Xiao'er, where to go." Wen Ping took the lead, and the long knife in his hand pointed directly at Cao Ang.

Guo Jia and Cao Ang were really out of soul at this moment, Guo Jia glanced around and immediately said: "Gongzi immediately Mingjin withdraws the army, we have been tricked." "Although I don't know where these two groups of cavalry came from, the current situation is really a dilemma. Thousands of soldiers had already rushed into the walls, tens of thousands more were climbing, and countless more were waiting below.

At this time, the city gate suddenly opened, and Gao Shun led a team of cavalry to rush out. As for the city, as long as it doesn't fall completely, then Cao Ang must be caught. A lot of soldiers rushed out of the small buildings in the city, fighting the soldiers rushing up one by one.

Na Dian Wei killed and suddenly found that something was wrong, and two cavalry rushed over in the distance. Seeing that the number of people adds up to more than 10,000, so Cao Ang under the city is in danger? But at this time, the surrounding soldiers all surrounded them, holding the kind of shield that I don't know what kind of shield it was, and it looked very dark. I knocked down the halberd, and I almost rebounded back to hit myself, although the opponent also stumbled, but this is absolutely incorrect. Reasoning with one's own strength can definitely knock out the enemy, but what shield will actually bounce?

Han Song has already let all the thousands of elites in the city go to the city wall, and at this time, it is up to him to see who is faster. These elites are definitely carefully selected, both in terms of equipment and food. Of course, this is a basic benefit, and as for the death in battle, there is no need to worry, so these soldiers are definitely the elite of the elite.

Dian Wei was surrounded by more than a dozen soldiers who were also strong men, surrounded by soldiers with that kind of pitch-black shield, and the soldiers around him seemed to be all dead? In a fit of rage, Dian Wei frantically beat the soldiers around him with the halberds in his hands, but these soldiers train every day, it is really the training of being hired by Wen, and it is definitely intimate cooperation.

No matter how strong Dian Wei is at this moment, how strong his strength is, he is really powerless in the face of this rubber shield. That feeling of rebound made him dare not even exert himself. Slowly, several soldiers surrounded one by one, and there were those shields in front and back, which made Dian Wei very weak.

Frantically beating the shield beside him, Dian Wei believed that even if it was a bronze shield, he could beat it to pieces, but he didn't even dare to use this black shield, what was this? With the unwillingness, Dian Wei was put on his arm, neck, and foot with a noose by the soldiers behind, and finally Dian Wei was tied up with hemp rope.

Dian Wei watched the soldiers around him being slaughtered one by one, and the sound of Mingjin under the city had already sounded, but he never had a chance to escape. The cavalry in the distance had already begun to charge, their formation scattered, and in the face of two groups of cavalry, they were left with nothing but death. Dian Wei regrets it in his heart now, he knew that he wouldn't come up, and he could also leave with Gongzi and Guo Jia, I'm afraid they will all die in battle this time, right?

Guo Jia under the city said to Cao Ang: "Son, let's go quickly, if we don't leave, it's too late!" Hundreds of soldiers surrounded him, covering Cao Ang and Guo Jia one by one.

Looking at Wu Yi and Wen Ping who rushed over in the distance, Guo Jiayi gritted his teeth: "Son, you go, I will organize soldiers to intercept it." The soldiers in the distance had already withdrawn, and after a while, more than 10,000 people had gathered around Guo Jia.

Cao Ang was already a little stunned at this time, which was too big a blow to him. Victory was on the verge of victory, but defeat followed. Dian Wei didn't have to think much about being arrested, and other generals also organized soldiers to fight back. Cao Ang was taken away and fled all the way to Ruyin.

Wen Ping also saw that Guo Jia, but a sour Confucian was not worth his arrest, and at this time, Cao Ang could not be let go no matter what, and he must arrest the main general. Looking at Guo Jia, who organized soldiers to counterattack in the distance, Wen Ping and the others directly bypassed and rushed towards Cao Ang. This scene made Guo Jia look very powerless, and the surrounding soldiers retreated towards the back while organizing.

After Wu Yi chased after him, he was neither in a hurry to chase Cao Ang nor rush into the city to rescue, but kept circling Cao Cao's infantry, making the cavalry shout to lay down their weapons and not kill while blocking the attack. What he Wu Yi saw was this vast number of soldiers, these are all excellent laborers.

Chase all the way, slaughter the captains who are trying to organize, constantly chase the fleeing soldiers, and as long as they drop their weapons and stand in place, they will let them go. Wu Yi was very satisfied with these soldiers, and one by one he lost his weapons and sat down on the spot. With so much labor, Wu Yi's eyes lit up.

Their Wu family now has a lot of workshops, but they are extremely short of labor. Liu Zhang is very demanding at this point, especially those close to them, and they will never allow any acts of adultery and criminality. At this point, Liu Zhang would let people inspect it every time, and occasionally he would inspect it himself. Once, there was a foreman in Wang Si's workshop who just embezzled a few people's wages, but Liu Zhang knew about it and hung up the principal at that time, and then fined Wang Si a lot of money.

These soldiers in front of him are good laborers in Wu Yi's eyes, which Wu Yi feels is much more important than Cao Ang. If he can capture these tens of thousands of soldiers, how can Liu Zhang share a little bit of him at that time? The thousands of cavalry brought in him pursued as long as they saw soldiers running, but Cao's army was too much, and in the end he still ran dozens of squads, which can be regarded as more than 20,000 people.

The 150,000 soldiers attacked Shangcai, of which nearly 50,000 died, and nearly 20,000 or 30,000 ran away, and now there are still 60,000 or 70,000 left, all of which were rushed out of Gao Shun, and Wu Yi firmly watched. After many days of rushing and onslaught, the soldiers were already exhausted.

At this moment, they were ambushed by the enemy, and they all looked very depressed, and their morale dropped to the freezing point, what else did they have to resist? This is actually not surprising, Cao Cao defeated the strong with the weak, I don't know how many Yuan Shao's soldiers were killed, and it was not surprising that when morale fell to the lowest, he captured several times more people than himself.

Wen Ping only wanted to catch Cao Ang, but Guo Jia was led by the soldiers towards the path. In short, many lieutenants know how to run separately, so as not to be pursued by the enemy. Guo Jia knew that Wen Ping didn't chase him, and when he passed by the side, Wen Ping didn't even look at him, and pointed straight towards Cao Ang.

Defeated, this is still a fiasco. Guo Jia can be sure that Cao Ang can't run away, other people's cavalry is very fast, Cao Ang has only dozens of iron horsemen around him, why run away? What's more, others are waiting for work, and they suffered heavy losses in this attack on Runan.
