The war was raging, and the flames burned the entire camp, which was clearly visible within dozens of miles. Xun Gang listened to Lu Xun's suggestion, and used a little trick to lure Cao Ren into battle, not wanting to only surround Niu Jin, but to leave Cao Ren behind.

The 5,000 soldiers and horses rushed left and right in the encirclement network of tens of thousands of people, but it did not necessarily have the slightest wavering in the encirclement network, but because the impact was slowly locked, they were waiting to crush all the 5,000 soldiers and horses and use them as fertilizer for the weeds in the coming year.

Niu Jin looked at the increasingly unstoppable enemy army, knowing that he had to pay for his recklessness today, but he still had to try his best to protect more soldiers to break through and ensure that Cao Ren defended the city, and hurriedly ordered: "All the troops will form a front and arrow, and concentrate their firepower to break through to the east!" ”

In the end, the five thousand people were still well-trained, and they immediately formed a formation after listening to Niu Jinfa's orders, even though Xun Gang's army fired thousands of arrows, but they still did not panic, and used rattan cards to protect their bodies, like arrows, and frantically broke through to the east like arrows.

"The enemy army is about to break through, the front army has formed a defensive formation, and Hugh is going to leave the thieves! The left and right armies encircled and exerted pressure, if the enemy army cannot break through, it must be captured by our army! ”

Zhang Liao saw that Niu Jin was about to break through, so he was quick and quickly issued an order to ensure that tonight's action would not fall short. He still thought that Cao Ren was still in the besieged army, and if he stopped the troops here, he would buy time for the Lu Bu army who attacked Wancheng.

Xun Gang divided the army into two groups today, one wave was led by Zhang Liao, and set up an ambush in the camp to wait for Cao Ren to attack the army; The other wave was the siege generals led by Lu Bu, taking advantage of Cao Ren's absence to sneak attack Wancheng.

He had already heard that there were many main surrender factions in Wancheng, and with the prestige of Lu Bu, they used the slogan "Cao Ren is dead" to intimidate, and he was not afraid that these people would not surrender. At the beginning, Zhou Yu lured Cao Ren to attack Yiling and defeated him, but he did not attack Jiangling first-hand, and almost put himself in danger. Xun Gang thought about it this time, he didn't plan to give Cao Ren a chance to withdraw to Wancheng at all.

(In the romance, it was true that Zhou Yu was sick and repelled Cao Ren, but Zhuge Liang did not take the opportunity to take Jiangling, and Jiangling was still taken by Zhou Yu.) After that, Liu Bei took the four counties of Jingnan and asked Sun Quan for Jiangling again and again, so that he could get the five counties of Jingnan. ）

But I saw a few young generals standing out from the Xun Gang army, holding spears in their hands, shouting loudly in their mouths, and rushing towards the center of the Niu Jin array. Another whistle was heard, and the charging army composed of nearly a hundred soldiers circled around the western flank of Niu Jin, and was about to charge when the order was given.

Niu Jin broke through in the east, and the west naturally became his rear flank, and the weak point of the front arrow formation was the tail wing, if the enemy broke through, the formation would be completely defeated, and the army would be scattered and had no strength to fight.

It's a pity that Niu Jin has long been distracted and weak, just breaking through the siege has made him exhausted, and two more armies will attack the middle, and one army will sneak attack the tail, and he will no longer have any resistance.

"General, the western army of our army can't resist anymore!"

"General, the northern defense line has collapsed, and the enemy army has broken through our defensive circle!"

"General, the enemy army in the east is well defended, and our army can't rush through!"

One bad news after another is like a slap in the head, directly crushing Niu Jin's hope of survival; Facing an enemy like a pack of wolves, Niu Jin realized for the first time what a powerful enemy he was facing—that was someone who could even kill the previous king!

"Can't escape...... Can't escape! ”

Niu Jin shouted in despair, and suddenly heard someone outside the circle shouting: "Cao Ren, don't be stubborn!" If you are willing to put down your war at this moment, I will not hold you accountable for your previous rudeness; If not, I will behead you as an example." ”

Niu Jin naturally knew that this was Xun Gang's voice, and Xun Gang thought that he was Cao Ren, since he was going to die, then he would die happily! Lie to him!

"Xun thief, if you kill the first king, how can I spare you? Now that I am in prison, life and death are in your hands, why should I ask you for sincerity? Even if you kill me, what can you do if you take Wancheng? Can you still integrate these fragmented mountains and rivers one by one? ”

Although Niu Jin was illiterate, he often heard Cao Ren muttering and learned some of Cao Ren's words; There was a commotion outside the formation, and Xun Gang couldn't hear the person's voice clearly, but he judged whether it was Cao Ren from between his words.

"Integrate the world? Why should I? ”

Xun Gang smiled coldly, and said in his heart that you are still arrogant, and when you are exhausted, I will capture you, so that you can't survive or die!

He can't be merciful, and sometimes the means of killing chickens and monkeys are necessary.

"Lord, there is an accident!"

Xun Gang was proud, and suddenly saw Tian Yu coming to report and asked, "Could it be that Fengxian attacked the city and encountered obstacles?" ”

Tian Yu shook his head and said: "That's not the case, there is no news from General Lu's place yet, it's just that our army scouts have found a small force in the south, which is less than two miles away from our army, I don't know what to do with the lord?" ”

Xun Gang said disapprerovingly: "Why should the small force be bothered? It can't be said that they are local bandits in Nanyang, and those who heard about the prestige of our army came to surrender to Cheng, don't take it to heart! ”

Tian Yu Nuonuo responded, but he felt uneasy about Xun Gang's underestimation in his heart.

Not long after, another message was reported: "Lord, there is a person from the east rushing from outside the formation, our army did not expect it, I wanted to encircle and kill him, but I didn't want this person to be extraordinary, kill many people in our army, and almost break through the encirclement!" General Zhang Liao has already fought with that man, and he also asks the lord to support! ”

Xun Gang lost his color instantly when he heard this, as far as he knew, there were only two generals in Wancheng who could compete with Zhang Liao slightly, and that was Cao Ren and Niu Jin. Now that the two of them are behind bars in his eyes, who else can disrupt the formation?

"Who is that man? Hurry up and find out! ”

The soldier promised, and after a while, he replied and said, "Lord, it has been found out clearly, that person is Cao Ren!" ”

"! Cao Ren is under siege, how can he rush out and come back to die? ”

"My subordinates don't know!"

Without waiting for Xun Gang to get angry, Tian Yu said: "Lord, it may be that Cao Ren didn't rush into the encirclement at all, and Fang Cai's voice was faked. Now this Cao Ren is unwilling, and he is back to die, God really helps me! ”

After Tian Yu dialed it like this, Xun Gang instantly understood, and said in his heart: "Cao Zixiao, Cao Zixiao, why do you want to wade through this troubled water again?" That's good, I'm going to find you if you save it! He ordered hundreds of people to surround Cao Ren and not let him go.

"Report! ——”

There was another series of announcements, Xun Gang heard that his ears were calloused, and he shouted: "If there is a fart, release it!" ”

The man was startled, but he still hurriedly said: "My lord, it is inevitable that a hundred-man army will approach our army, and it seems that it has come to fight our army!" ”

"Can't these people find death?"

Xun Gang obviously didn't believe it, he had tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, how could a few hundred people scare him? Let the man guard the south gate, and let them not come in. Not long after, there was another round of notification: "Lord, the south gate has been breached!" ”

Xun Gang was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't hear clearly: "What did you say?" ”

The man was afraid of Xun Gang's anger, and said timidly: "Lord, those hundreds of people were originally Cao Cao's elite tiger and leopard cavalry in Jingbei, and they were found by Cao Xiu, Cao Chun and others, and our army was too light on the enemy, so they ......."

"Cao Xiu, Cao Chun, aren't they locked up in Gangneung?"

This time, Tian Yu was nervous, looked at Xun Gang and said in a low voice: "Lord, I got a report some time ago that the Cao family cooperated with Dong Xian to escape from Jiangling Prison, but they were busy dealing with Cao Ren at the time, so they ......."

"Seeing that Cao Ren is about to be taken, how can there be so many changes!"

Xun Gang does not blame Tian Yu, although he delayed the military plane, but it is not dealt with now. After that, he got on the war horse and led the troops to fight Cao Chun's family. As soon as he raised his gun and got on his horse, he heard a burst of shouts, and Cao Chun had already led hundreds of people to quickly break through the defense line, like a death squad, ignoring the surrounding attacks at all, and just rushing towards the innermost part of the encirclement.

"Block them!"

Seeing that Cao Chun and the others directly ignored their existence, Xun Gang was very annoyed in his heart, and hurriedly commanded the army to surround them. But such a move allowed the surrounded Niujin army to find an opportunity, and they actually found a breakthrough and fled directly.

Cao Chun saw that Niu Jin's danger had been solved, and hurriedly led troops to rescue Cao Ren; Cao Ren and Zhang Liao were in the middle of a battle, and the two of them came and went without knowing whether they won or lost, and suddenly rushed into an army, and the leader of the group was a horizontal split towards Zhang Liao's head. Zhang Liao snorted coldly and raised his gun to meet the enemy, not wanting that person not to entangle with him, so he directly led the troops to rescue Cao Ren.

The tiger and leopard rider was originally as powerful as a tiger and as fast as a leopard, and this rescue operation was very fast, and all the people were rescued from the camp in less than five minutes. Xun Gang saw that the comer was not good, and hurriedly commanded the army to pursue, and Cao Ren and the others did not have time to celebrate the old days, and quickly retreated towards Wancheng.

"Cao Renxiu go!"

Xun Gang's horse was fast, and when he boarded, he rushed to the front and broke away from the large army; Cao Ren chuckled when he saw this, and said in his heart that this guy was really too tender, so he raised his bow and shook an arrow, Xun Gang turned his head when he heard the sound, but he didn't see the bow and arrow, and then there was the sound of the bowstring, and Xun Gang was biased again, and he still didn't see the bow and arrow.

Xun Gang didn't have time to think about the false bowstrings in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", so he said that Cao Ren had no arrows and tried his best to catch up. Cao Ren saw that the time was ripe, and turned around with a real arrow, Xun Gang was unexpected, he was shot by an arrow in the center, and the pain was unbearable, and he fell off the horse.

"It's a pity ......"

Cao Ren sighed lightly, but unfortunately he didn't know if he could directly take Xun Gang's life with this arrow, otherwise today's war would be over. He also had no time to turn back and cut off Xun Gang's head, so he could only retreat in a hurry.

"Lord!"

"Protect the lord!"

"Medic, Medic!"

When the army saw Xun Gang fall off the horse, they hurriedly helped, but Xun Gang had already fainted in pain, and Xun Gang's life and death were uncertain, if he could not be treated in time, he was afraid that he would be confessed here. Zhang Liao and the others did not dare to pursue, so they could only go home.

Before Cao Ren returned to complete, Lu Xun Lu Bu's troops had already persuaded the guards of Wancheng to take Wancheng without bloodshed. Cao Ren and others saw that Wancheng had been lost, so they could only go to Wuguan to enter Chang'an and defect to Cao Pi.

As soon as the fireworks went out, it was another dull morning......
