When the sound of war and sword light gradually subsided, it was already the moon in the sky, Ma Chao did not continue to fight after learning that the main general Zang Ba and the deputy general Zong Yuan were all killed, and the battalion quickly took control of the city wall.

"General, the Cao army in the city has been cleared." A school lieutenant came to the Wu'an County Ya, found Ma Chao who was looking through the accounts, and bowed down.

"Got it, let's go down." Ma Chao nodded, and then seemed to remember something, raised his head and called the captain, the corners of his mouth grinned, and said with a smile: "Send someone to the plain and report the news to General Zhao, the commander of the White Horse Battalion." ”

The captain glanced up at Ma Chao suspiciously, nodded and said, "Huh! After seeing that Ma Chao had no other instructions, he bowed and retreated.

In fact, this time Zhang Liao, Ma Chao, Zhao Yun, and Gan Ning worked together, and in terms of strategic deployment, there was already a clear plan, unless there was an obstacle to ask for help from friendly forces, each of them had an attack target at the moment, even if the main force of the Cao army was broken, it was only necessary to report to Zhang Liao and Luoyang, and the other three departments were all at the same level in this campaign, and there was no need to inform each other at all, so why should Zhao Yun be specifically notified?

This has to say that the competition between the five departments of Chang'an.

Ma Chao surrendered earlier, and he was also a general that Lu Bu attached great importance to, when he was in Xiliang, he began to intentionally cultivate, hone Ma Chao's temperament, and personally instruct the art of war, Lu Bu commanded many fierce generals, but if it is said that cavalry warfare, before Zhao Yun arrived, Ma Chao has always been the first person under Lu Bu, whether it is personal bravery or the command of cavalry, among the many cavalry generals under Lu Bu, Ma Chao can be called the first, until Zhao Yun appeared.

Zhao Yun's martial arts are not weaker than Ma Chao at all, or even stronger, Ma Chao followed Lu Bu early, and Lu Bu also paid attention to it, but Zhao Yun was Lu Bu's son-in-law, and the first battle of Liaodong, although some people said that it was a blessing that dragged Lu Bu, but Ma Chao, who was with Lu Bu at that time, was very clear that the battle pacified Liaodong, Lu Bu did not provide Zhao Yun with any help except for 5,000 cavalry, and even the weapons at that time were not like now, they could override the princes, but Zhao Yun relied on 5,000 people, not only overturned Gongsun Du, but also almost wiped out the Wuhuan people who came to help, Fight to fame.

Later, Lu Bu established five departments, the hussar battalion is Lu Bu's guard, the majestic sea martial arts did not say, but it is too mediocre above the commander, it has always been the role of Lu Bu's personal guard, the hussar battalion basically will not leave Lu Bu's side, and among the remaining four, Pang De's shooting battalion is mainly infantry, and most of the Tiger Roar battalion in Beigongli are Qiang Hu naturalized Han people, although Lu Bu does not agree with discrimination, but in his bones, Ma Chao does not look up to the Tiger Roar Battalion, among the elite of the five departments, The real elite of the cavalry is Ma Chao's day-chasing battalion and Zhao Yun's white horse battalion.

The relationship between the two is not bad, but when it comes to strength and weakness, naturally they can't give in, this is a matter of the dignity of martial artists, especially Ma Chao and Zhao Yun are both star generals under Lu Bu, handsome and capable, even if it is a bow competition, it is also a mutual victory, people are also used to discussing these two together, and after a long time, this competitive relationship naturally appeared.

Ma Chao was holding back a force in his heart and wanted to overshadow Zhao Yun, although he also admitted that Zhao Yun's ability was no worse than him, but between the generals, unless the gap is really big, they will not easily serve another general, this is a kind of goodwill demonstration, and it is not uncommon in the past, but this time, but Lu Bu's first battle to the Central Plains, both Zhao Yun and Ma Chao have enough strength, this battle, it is undoubtedly Ma Chao who took the lead first, and overturned Zang Ba with a slight injury, this is the character who blocked Lu Bu back then, died at his own hands like this, so naturally he had to show off to this opponent.

Some are unhappy, I'm afraid it's just that Zang Ba was not killed by his own hands, although Lu Bu does not advocate fighting generals now, and pays more attention to the overall strength of the army, but the battle before the battle is the honor of the generals, and it is also a concept of this era.

But then again, Zang Ba actually died under the siege of several soldiers, and his martial arts were not very good.

In fact, it is not that Zang Ba is too weak, the daily battalion is one of the five most elite soldiers and horses under Lu Bu, every soldier is selected under Lu Bu's elite soldier policy, level by level, each of them is an elite, plus Guanzhong has vigorously improved weapons in the past five years, and the new weapon is naturally the priority equipment of the five departments, if it is replaced by the soldiers and horses under Zhang Liao, although it is also elite, but the weapons and armor can't keep up, and it is impossible for a few small soldiers to besiege and kill a general like Zang Ba, among the five departments, an ordinary soldier in any one of them comes out, If it is placed in the ordinary regular army, it is at least at the level of the commander, if it is placed among the princes, the individual force can even catch up with the level of generals and colonels, not to mention Zang Ba, it is Ma Chao and other figures, dozens of them come up to besiege and beat, if there is no good weapon armor, they have to rest.

Xiahou Yuan's main force in Jizhou was defeated, and now the Wu'an reinforcements have been wiped out, and Cao Cao's forces in the entire southern Hebei region are now only supported by Yu Ban in the plains.

The plain is a small county, the city wall is less than two zhang, and it cannot accommodate tens of thousands of soldiers and horses stationed, so Yu Ban took his headquarters near the plain, on the bank of the Yellow River, and found an open place to camp, originally to avoid a surprise attack, but this time it was indeed miscalculated, and was surrounded by Gan Ning and Zhao Yun.

The first to attack was not Zhao Yun, but the Henghai Division who went upstream.

The cold arrow rain ruthlessly shot from the military camp of Wang Yuban, who had become a line of boats, the arrow rain was not intensive, often after a wave of arrow rain, Cao Jun thought that the other party had stopped shooting, Gan Ning would give him another wave, and beat the Cao Jun who had just emerged back, and the damage caused was more serious.

Gan Ning likes this style of play very much, Baekje has been beaten by him with this style of play in recent years, and he has given up a large area of fertile land by the sea, and now this style of play is used to deal with Cao Jun, it still works, but after being cleaned up for a few waves, Yu Ban also saw Gan Ning's treachery, but unfortunately there is no effective means to deal with Gan Ning, the range of the Thunderbolt is enough, but the miserable hit rate can't pose much threat to Gan Ning, who is proficient in water warfare, even if the warship is unfortunately overturned, The people on the boat can quickly climb onto the surrounding boats and continue shooting, as for the bow crossbows, except for a few two-stone rhubarb crossbows, the other crossbows are not as long as the repeater crossbows, and can only be beaten.

"General, if you continue to fight like this, you will be consumed by them sooner or later!" The deputy general came to Yu Ban's side and said astringently.

The thunderbolt hit is low, and the bow and arrow are not as powerful as others, even if these Cao troops are the elite of the Cao army who have experienced a hundred battles, and they can't fight back just by being beaten, the more they fight, the more aggrieved they become.

"Retreat ten miles to the village!" Yu Ban was a little helpless, except for avoidance, he couldn't think of a good way to clean up these damn Bohai Sea Masters, the north usually pays little attention to the navy.

What makes Yu Ban even more upset is that Lu Bu's sailors will not come here for no reason, you must know that although southern Hebei borders with Lu Bu the most, Qinghe County is the farthest place from Lu Bu, does the appearance of Gan Ning mean that Lu Bu wants to make a move on southern Hebei and fulfill his promise?

The damn thought was soon confirmed.

Just opened the gate of the village, the Cao army, which was about to move the camp, was forced back by the dense rain of arrows, and hundreds of Cao soldiers who had not had time to return to the barracks fell at the gate of the camp.

"Who?" The worry in Yu Ban's heart was confirmed, and Gan Ningshuishi, who didn't care about the arrows in the rear, hurriedly got on a bucket and looked into the distance, and at the same time ordered someone to close the gate.

"White Horse Righteous Servant?" Looking at the outside of the barracks, the white war horse, Yu Ban lost his voice, back then, the white horse Yicong was very prosperous in the north, but with the fall of Gongsun Zhan, the white horse Yicong has also become history, but I didn't expect that today, I would see such a force again, all white horses, but the attack was more sharp.

On the fluttering banner, a big Zhao character made Yu Ban understand the identity of the person who came, the general under Lu Bu who swept Liaodong and stepped on Wuhuan, Zhao Yun!

This is a more difficult character to deal with than Gongsun Zhan, Yu Ban saw that the soldiers who closed the gate were shot by the other party, and the dense arrow clusters were almost uninterrupted towards the barracks, not as cunning as Gan Ning, but Cao Jun was overwhelmed, watching the other party approach, Yu Ban sadly found that whether it was Gan Ning's style of play or Zhao Yun's style of play, for himself, he had no way, and what was even more sad was that he seemed to be surrounded.

The White Horse Battalion stopped archery, and at the same time someone blew the horn, and Gan Ning, who came from the riverbank, stopped shooting at the same time.

"General, are they out of arrows?" The deputy general looked at Yu Ban who came down from Diao Dou, and said with some expectations.

Yu Ban shook his head, obviously, this was a beautiful misunderstanding, he really hoped that the other party's arrow cluster was running out, but he had seen clearly in Diao Dou before, the white horse was on the horseback, but there was a large bag of quivers, not to mention on the river, Gan Ning used a boat to transport the arrow clusters, how could he shoot all the arrows in such a little time?

In the White Horse camp, I saw a general galloping to the gate of the Yuan, connecting the silver spears in his hands, knocking all the flying arrows into the air, looking inside and saying: "Zhao Zilong in Xia Changshan, dare to ask where General Yu Ban is?" Can you come and talk? ”

Yu Ban waved his hand to stop the indiscriminate attacks of the archers around him, and after hesitating for a moment, he came out of the crowd and took a deep breath: "Below is Yu Ban, who has long admired the general's name, dare to ask the general, why did Lu Hussar tear up the covenant and attack each other rashly?" ”

"Cao Mengde sent someone to assassinate my master, is this reason enough?" Zhao Yun waved his hand, stopped what Yu Ban wanted to say, and looked at Yu Ban seriously: "The lord once said that among the Cao army, General Yu can be described as a general, and Yun also doesn't want to talk nonsense with the general, that's a matter of literati. ”

Yu Ban frowned: "If I don't come down, what will I do?" (To be continued.) )
