Chapter 12 Cao Cao's army was defeated, and Li dared to apprentice

Just when Li Dang and Xu Huang were fighting under Hangu Pass, another big battle was kicking off. Cao Cao used Tian Jing's strategy www.biquge.info let Xiahou Yuan attack Chen Liu and lure Lu Bu away, and then concentrated 50,000 soldiers and horses to quickly break through the defense line of Gao Shun and others, and trapped Puyang.

Guo Jia has already made contact with Neiying in the city, and tonight the city is on fire, on the one hand, it is set on fire everywhere to create chaos, and on the other hand, nearly 100 people from the Haoqiang family are gathered to seize the east gate and let Cao's army enter the city.

For the plan that Tian Jing and Guo Jia discussed together, everything has gone smoothly so far. Cao Cao is ready for a full-scale attack, and tonight he will personally lead all the troops and horses to attack the east gate. In addition, soldiers and horses were sent to besiege the other three gates, so that not a single soldier could escape from Puyang. He wants to recapture the lost Puyang in person, and he wants to break it into pieces in Chen Palace.

At the second watch in the evening, a fire suddenly broke out in the city, and then people were heard shouting everywhere in the city, "Run, Cao Jun has entered the city!" Cao Cao knew that the time had come, and brought soldiers and horses to wait anxiously outside the east gate. In a few moments, the gates opened, and the people inside shook their torches three times. Cao Cao knew that it was a signal to enter the city, so he rushed into the city with 3,000 cavalry and 5,000 infantry.

After Cao Cao entered the city, he ordered people to go up to capture the city wall, and on the other hand, he prepared to lead his troops to Taishou Mansion to capture Chen Gong alive. Suddenly, I found that there were Yanzhou soldiers and horses in front, and these soldiers and horses were in a neat formation, and they were not in the chaos of the city. The leader of the generals was looking at himself and laughing, as if he was looking at a dying prey, only to see that the man was holding Fang Tian's halberd, and the red rabbit horse under his seat, how could he look familiar, this was not Lu Bu, how could there be anyone else?

Cao Cao shouted, "Oh no, I've been tricked!" "Turn the horse's head and run back. But LΓΌ Bu would not give him a chance, arrows rained down on the city, and LΓΌ Bu launched the Bingzhou Iron Cavalry and launched a one-sided massacre of Cao's army.

Cao Xiu, who was beside Cao Cao, knew that it would definitely not work like this, so he took his two thousand soldiers and horses to meet Lu Bu's cavalry, while Cao Hong took two thousand to block it, and their purpose was only one, that is, to win time for Cao Cao's retreat. Dian Wei was responsible for protecting Cao Cao and led his own soldiers to protect Cao Cao

Quickly retreat. Their only hope was that the gates were not closed.

But the inner response that opened the city just now suddenly turned into Lu Bu's soldiers and horses, the two huge city gates were closing, and the drawbridge of the moat outside the city gate was also being retracted.

Dian Wei immediately ordered people to go over and seize the city gate, while Li Dian and Le Jin led the infantry to forcibly capture the city wall, on the one hand, to stop the archers' design, and on the other hand, to cut the rope of the drawbridge and let the army retreat.

After all, the defenders at the city gate were not enough in number, and they were killed and dispersed by Dian Wei after a while, and just as Dian Wei led people to push open the city gate, Lu Bu behind him was killed. Lu Bu didn't want to waste time killing those miscellaneous soldiers, what he wanted was Cao Cao's head.

Therefore, when Cao Xiu and Cao Hong blocked Lu Bu, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Hou Cheng, Wei Xu and others had already stopped Cao Cao's generals, and Lu Bu rode a red rabbit horse and brandished Fang Tian's halberd to kill a bloody road, which is the so-called ability to take the head of the general in the Ten Thousand Horse Army. There are a hundred more steps to kill Cao Cao, and Lu Bu knows that Cao Cao can't escape his palm today. But when he wanted to kill again, he found that Dian Wei pushed open the city gate, and Cao Cao was about to escape, so Lu Bu immediately took off his bow and arrow from behind and shot an arrow at Cao Cao. Cao Cao was so frightened that his soul was not possessed, and Dian Wei quickly pushed Cao Cao away, but the arrow passed through Dian Wei's right shoulder, and then flew out and inserted it on the city gate, and the feather arrow did not enter the city gate half a foot deep, which shows the strength of Lu Bu. But it was this Dian Wei's kung fu that Cao Cao had already shot out of the city gate. And Li Dian and Le Jin on the city wall have also succeeded, the drawbridge fell in response, and Cao Cao fled.

Lu Bu hated it so much that he was only one step away from taking the life of Cao Thief, which was really hateful, and Lu Bu turned to the slaughter of Cao Jun who was still in the city.

Cao Cao escaped from the east gate and fled in the direction of Zhencheng without stopping, while the soldiers and horses who had besieged the other three gates had realized their plan and hurried back to the division. When Cao Cao counted the number of people on the second day, he found that more than 5,000 horses had been broken in Puyang City, Dian Wei and Cao Xiu were seriously injured, and other generals Cao Hong, Li Dian, and Le Jin were also all hung up.

Cao Cao was so angry in his heart that he almost lost his life at the hands of Lu Bu. This Lu Bu obviously went to support Chen Liu, how could he be in Puyang City, and our army should be very secret, how can he leak information, needless to say, Tian Jing's kid betrayed himself. Cao Cao naturally credited all this account to Tian Jing.

In fact, Chen Gong was able to discover Cao Cao's plan by chance, a grain merchant's man secretly entered the city the day after Tian Jing left and was arrested. Chen Gongben wanted to try a case of stealing the owner's property, but the heinous case was dismissed. Chen Gong quickly sent someone to write to Lu Bu, and at the same time did not move, paying attention to the every move of the big clans, and then used the plan to let Cao Cao enter the city. This battle can be said to be a complete victory, but it is a pity that Cao Cao ran away.

And how deeply Tian Jing's side is involved in this matter, Chen Gong doesn't know yet, he only hopes that Tian Jing won't kidnap Miss and never come back, otherwise although this matter was arranged by Lu Bu, he will still vent his anger on himself.

However, at this time, Tian Jing's life under Hangu City was not easy.

In yesterday's battle, Li dared to face Xu Huang, and he was defeated in less than three moves. Tian Jing just wanted to go up to help, but Leping had already greeted him with a big knife in his hand, and the two fought against Xu Huang, but they were still not opponents. Tian Jing thought to himself, now is not the time to talk about fairness one-on-one, so he patted the horse and joined the battle group.

Xu Huang laughed, "Finally, there is a helper, you two are too poor, it is better to worship me as a teacher and learn kung fu for a few more days." This Xuzhou Tao Qian is really strange, such a big event as meeting the Son of Heaven actually sent a bunch of teenage dolls to come. Could it be that there are no generals in Xuzhou? ”

Tian Jing didn't answer, but just used what he had learned in his life to deal with it carefully. But Xu Huang is very smart, and always makes killing moves against Li Kang and Leping, Tian Jing raised his gun to protect the two, and was in a hurry. At this time, Li Kang and Leping were no longer helping, but burdensome, and Tian Jing asked the two to step back and monopolize Xu Huang. But Tian Jing was not proficient in martial arts after all, and his strength was not good, so he was knocked off the horse by Xu Huang with an axe in fifteen moves. Tian Jing said secretly, "My life is at stake!" ”

As a result, Xu Huang didn't hurt him, but put away the big axe and said to Tian Jing, "Doll kung fu is good, but you still have to practice hard." Just because I don't take your life today doesn't mean I won't kill you tomorrow. And thou shalt lead thy men back ten miles and encamp. If my general replies, Xu will notify you to clear the customs. "Then he collected the troops and went back to the pass.

Li Kang and Leping helped Tian Jing up, and were about to scold Xu Huang, but were stopped by Tian Jing. Tian Jing led the soldiers and horses back ten miles to the village, and in his military tent, he didn't sleep well all night. On the one hand, because of Miss Lu Wen's injury, I don't know when I will be trapped in Hanguguan today? On the other hand, it was because he felt that Xu Huang was a little incomprehensible. It seems unreasonable, but he defeated himself without hurting himself, and he doesn't know what kind of person he is.

Early this morning, Tian Jing woke up and decided that he still had to see Xu Huang. Otherwise, Miss Lu Wen will be in danger if she waits for one more day. Even if you can't pass the customs, you have to inquire about the news of Hongnong and Guanzhong.

Tian Jing thought of this and asked people to call Li Kang. The two of them changed their battle robes, put on civilian clothes, and brought two jars of tribute wine to see Xu Huang.

Xu Huang heard that the young general came again yesterday, and said in his heart that he really didn't know whether he was alive or dead, didn't he have to kill Xu to be willing to die? As a result, when I came out to take a look, I saw Tian Jing leading Li Dang to wear civilian clothes and bring two jars of wine, and I didn't know what idea I had to fight.

Xu Huang came out of the city gate and saw Tian Jing and asked, "I already said yesterday that even if you don't bring weapons and horses, I won't let you pass, so why are you here again today?" ”

"What the general said, we naturally take it to heart, and this time we came to see the general, not to pass the test. Rather to come for apprenticeship? Tian Jing said.

"Apprentice, who to worship?" Xu Huang was confused.

Tian Jing continued, "Yesterday, the general said that my two brothers are not good at martial arts, so it is better to worship you as a teacher. Tian Jing went back and thought about it, since the general's good intentions were really hard to refuse, so he took my fourth brother Li Dare to come over to worship the general as a teacher. ”

After Tian Jing finished speaking, Xu Huang and Li Dang said at the same time: "Huh? ”

Xu Huangxin said, those were the words that humiliated the two boys on the battlefield yesterday, but now this Tian Jing is regarded as a good thing, and what else is said "The general's good intentions are really hard to shirk" is really shameless, but when it comes to this, I really have no choice? This kid named Tian Jing is not simple, this is to see through my character, this trick is really good at climbing the pole.

Li dared to do it, "Second brother, you can't be like this, when did I say that I want to worship a big man as a teacher?" I don't worship this teacher, I want to worship you, I would not have come if I knew this. ”

Tian Jingxin said, if I told you in advance, would you be able to come. Pretending to be angry, "Presumptuous! I am your second brother and the commander of the first army, if you dare not listen to my military orders, be careful of military law. You like to use axes, haven't you always wanted to learn from a master who is good at using axes? Back then, in Xu Wushan, my fifth uncle taught you axe techniques, and he was also half of your master, and the fifth uncle of Xia Mountain asked me to help you find a famous teacher in the future. Now that the famous teacher is in front of you, why don't you hurry up and kneel down and bow to the teacher? ”

Li Dang was also a little hesitant when he heard this, "Fifth Uncle said such a thing back then? ”

"That's nature!" Tian Jing said.

Although Li Dang must have been reluctant, he still knelt down and saluted Xu Huang, "Master is on the top and please accept the apprentice's worship." ”

Xu Huang was almost angry watching Tian Jing and Li Kang's performances on the side, did the apprentice worship like this? I have the heart to refuse, but I did say something like that on the battlefield, and many people heard it, and if I broke my promise, it seemed that my words didn't count. And I look at thirty years old, there is really no suitable mantle heir for this axe method, Li Dang's doll is not bad, the physical foundation is not bad, and the understanding is okay, the key is that he is still young, but he has some prospects for training.

Xu Huang looked at Tian Jing, thinking that this guy had a good idea, and wanted me to open up through the apprentice net. "Then I have to say it in front, I will accept this apprentice, but he must study art with me for a year before he can leave, otherwise he will lose the battle everywhere and ruin my reputation Xu Huang."

Li Dang stopped doing it as soon as he heard it, "Huh? I just wanted to say no, but was stopped by Tian Jing, "This is natural, Li dare he can't ask for it, and the general can rest assured." ”

Xu Huang continued, "There is also the fact that accepting apprentices is accepting apprentices, and customs clearance is customs clearance, and I won't break the rules because I accept Li Kang." I have already sent someone to report the news of your arrival at Hangu Pass, and after General Yang Feng has asked General Li Dao, he will arrange it, so don't you want to play any tricks? ”

Tian Jing smiled: "This is natural! ”

"Then I'll take this apprentice." Xu Huang helped Li Dang up, "Then said to Tian Jing, since we are a family, and follow me to the mansion to drink, we will not get drunk today." ”

Tian Jing promised to say yes, and said in his heart, I have to wait for you to let me enter the city.
