Huang Zhong came from Tangzi Township to escort grain and grass. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

At his age, he is no longer as competitive as a young man. Refusing to accept old age is not the kind of competition. He could roughly guess Liu Hu's thoughts, and he didn't have much opinion on Liu Hu's decision to keep him in Tangzi Township. It's just that Huang Zhong didn't expect that he was escorting grain and grass and was encountering Liu Hu's defeat. So he hurriedly rushed out of the back camp and saw Cao Peng preparing to slash Liu Hu.

Huang Zhong didn't know Cao Peng, but he vaguely guessed Cao Peng's identity.

After saving Liu Hu, Huang Zhong did not retreat immediately, but used the tiger roaring knife snatched from Pang De's hand to point at Cao Peng from afar.

He's fighting against Cao Peng!

The Jingzhou soldiers, who have begun to rout, need to be injected with a heart booster.

And the best heart booster is undoubtedly to kill Cao Peng. If Cao Peng can really be killed, not only can he save the defeat, but he can even end the war quickly. Huang Zhong snorted, roared, and rushed over. At this time, Cao Peng also stabilized his mind, seeing Huang Zhong rushing up, he did not show the slightest fear, facing Huang Zhong, and rushed over. Neither of them spoke, but they knew each other's intentions very well. In the past three years, Cao Peng has comprehended his 'potential'.

Like a ball of flame, it rushed forward, drew a round halberd, turned into a ray of light, and wiped it out obliquely.

Huang Zhong showed a dignified look, the tiger roared and flipped in his hand, even the mountain knife slashed, the knife overflowed, and the painting rod halberd in an instant, more than ten strikes. The two horses pedaled wrongly, and the two turned the horse's head again. Cao Peng's face became extremely ugly.

This old guy is so strong!

Cao Peng couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, worthy of the five tiger generals of Shu Han.

He reined in his horse, clenched his big hand on the halberd, trembling incessantly, and his arm was sore.

Huang Zhong sneered, urging the horse to rush out again. But at this moment, I heard the gong ring behind me, but it was Liu Hu who withdrew his troops after he got out of the battlefield.

Huang Zhong didn't want to retreat like this, but the military order was like a mountain, and since Liu Hu had already made money, he categorically couldn't disobey the order.

"You, but Cao Peng."

Huang Zhong suddenly spoke, and the voice was like a golden stone, revealing a sense of strength.

Cao Peng's arm had regained consciousness, and when he heard it, he smiled proudly: "Yes! ”

"This time, spare your life.

Come on, a certain family will take your head. ”

Huang Zhongsen opened his mouth, and there was a strong killing intent in his words.

Cao Peng's heart trembled, but he couldn't see the slightest expression on his face, and sneered: "I want to do this." ”

Huang Zhong laughed twice, personally pressed the formation, and slowly retreated to the camp. At the same time, Pang De, Li Yan and others also leaned on.

"Childe, why did you collect the troops?"

When Pang De saw Huang Zhong, he was immediately furious.

He was defeated at the hands of Huang Zhong, but to be honest, he was not resentful.

Huang Zhong defeated him, relying on real talent and learning, and did not take any shortcuts. Losing is losing, and Pound can't afford to lose.

But the old man snatched his tiger roaring knife, which made Pound feel ashamed.

The tiger roaring knife was a gift from Cao Peng, and it also represented Cao Peng's trust in him. But now, he has lost that trust, how can he not feel ashamed when he sees Cao Peng?

Cao Peng looked at the Jingzhou soldiers who were slowly gathering together, and under the leadership of Huang Zhong, they slowly retreated to the barracks.

"This old man is not idle, and he should not be underestimated.

You see, he personally pressed the formation, just to prevent pursuit. If you continue to attack, you are afraid that it will backfire. Moreover, everyone had just experienced a tough battle, the losses were huge, and the sergeants were also tired...... Our strength is not as good as the other side, so we should stabilize our position and then make calculations.

Ling Ming, you're okay. ”

Pound's appearance looked very embarrassed.

Cao Peng's concerned inquiry made Pound even more ashamed.

"The last general is incompetent, and he was defeated by an old pawn."

"Hey, you can't say that...... This Huang Hansheng is not an idle person.

Although this man is old, he is extremely brave and should not be underestimated. I fought with him just now, if it weren't for Liu Humingjin's withdrawal of troops, if he continued to fight, I am afraid that he would not be his opponent. Now, let's stabilize our position first. I camped with Zhengfang outside the city, and immediately sent someone to inform Pepin, asking him to send someone to block the wall first, and then come to see me. I'm afraid this battle can't end in a short time, so everyone should be more careful. ”

At this time, Pound no longer had the arrogance he had earlier.

He and Li Yan hurriedly surrendered their orders, and at the same time sent people to clean up the battlefield.

As for Cao Peng, he immediately camped outside Huyang City, and Li Yan's camp, one left and one right, formed an effective protection for Huyang.

The slanting sun, the sunset.

The entire lake was shrouded in blood.

On the battlefield outside Huyang City, the wails of the wounded echoed from time to time. The ownerless war horse wanders, looking for the owner who has no end of life, and it can't help but be heartbroken.

In the first battle of Huyang, there were more than 1,000 casualties among the Jingzhou soldiers.

And the number of dead and wounded in Cao's army was as high as six or seven hundred......

Cao Peng's flying camel soldiers also had losses, about thirty or forty.

Seeing the wounded soldiers being sent into Huyang City one by one, Cao Peng also felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

After the camp was built, Cao Peng sat in the big tent of the Chinese army. After arranging the affairs in the city, Kuai Zheng hurried to meet Cao Peng.

"Childe, you come to Huyang, Wancheng, there will be no accidents."

Li Yan asked a little worriedly, and Pang De on the side also nodded again and again.

Cao Peng smiled, "Liu Bei, don't worry about it for the time being." He was short of food and grass, and it was impossible for him to start a large-scale war, so he could only hold on to Wancheng. Moreover, I let Wen Chang command the soldiers and horses, and I was assisted by Yang Zilu and Lu Ziheng, which was enough to stabilize the situation......

Besides, the Battle of Huyang has begun, and the Battle of Nanyang will also be transferred from Wancheng to Huyang.

Liu Bei is now looking forward to dragging Liu Biao in, so he will be honest for the time being. And once Liu Biao sends troops, I'm afraid we can only hold on to the spot and can't attack without authorization. First, there are not so many troops, and second, Liu Biao is in Nanyang, and he also has prestige. His dispatch of troops will inevitably arouse the watch-and-see of powerful people everywhere. Although those people began to lean towards us, Liu Biao was the lord of Jingzhou. ”

When Cao Peng said this, he couldn't help but show a touch of bitterness and helplessness.

On the way to Huyang, he has been thinking about this problem. The Battle of Huyang broke out suddenly, making Cao Peng's previous plans have to be temporarily shelved. However, is this battle of Huyang really what Liu Biao meant? If it weren't for Liu Biao's intentions, Liu Hu's unauthorized war would inevitably lead to a change in form. The pressure that Cao Peng has to bear will increase countless times compared to before...... How could he not be worried?

However, what Cao Peng is most worried about now is Huang Zhong in front of him.

This veteran is brave and resourceful, and is a very tricky character. It is conceivable that Cao Peng will inevitably face huge pressure from Huang Zhong next. In terms of fighting and killing, Cao Peng is not Huang Zhong's opponent. If Pang De was not injured, the two of them might be able to resist Huang Zhong. But the problem is that Pound is clearly injured now...... When he attacked Tangzi Township before, he was shot and injured by Huang Zhong, and then experienced a hard battle, and he was injured and injured, and it was by no means possible to recover in a short time. On your own...... It's a bit dangerous.

Huang Zhong is fifty-four years old, but he does not look old at all.

In history, when he was sixty years old, he could still fight with Guan Gong, which shows that his force value is amazing.

"Boping, Zhengfang, what can be done about Huang Zhong?"

It can be heard that Cao Peng attaches great importance to Huang Zhong, which also makes Kuai Zheng feel a lot more comfortable in his heart. He had reminded Pang De before that he wanted Pang De to pay attention to Huang Zhong, but Pang De didn't care, and he suffered a big loss. Now Cao Peng's attitude is obviously very interested in Huang Zhong. In this way, Kuai Zheng didn't remind Cao Peng again, after listening to Cao Peng's words, he thought for a while and replied: "In the early years, I heard people say that Huang Zhong has a strong temperament and cannot be defeated. But if there is any countermeasure, I really can't say, maybe the right side can have an idea? ”

Cao Peng noticed that Li Yan had been pondering.

Hearing Kuai Zheng's words, Li Yan hurriedly raised his head and said, "I have discovered one thing in the past two days, but I don't know if it is useful. ”

"Oh?"

"Liu Hu came to Huyang yesterday and launched an attack.

But Huang Zhong never appeared, and he did not appear until today. I think, could it be that there is a contradiction between Liu Hu and Huang Zhong? ”

Pound also said: "Don't say it, I don't notice it yet."

That's right, when I entered the war today, I didn't notice Huang Zhong at first. ”

"Contradictory...... I'm afraid it's a little, but it shouldn't be too big. Kuai Zheng twisted his beard, revealing a thoughtful expression, "However, Huang Zhong has always followed Liu Pan, and it is not Liu Hu's trilogy. And Liu Hu is a person with an excellent face and not very broad-minded. Huang Zhong didn't appear until the end, not necessarily because there was any contradiction between the two. I think it's likely that Liu Hu is suppressing Huang Zhong......

After all, he was the commander of the Battle of Huyang, and if Huang Zhong's credit was too great, he might not feel glorious on his face.

Well, suppress, I think it's likely that Liu Hu is suppressing Huang Hanshen! ”

Can you only outwit you, but can't you beat it?

After Cao Peng listened to Kuai Zheng and others, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"Peping, talk to me about Liu Hu."

"Oh, it's easy...... In the past few years, Fu Bo and I have been making a living in Xiangyang, and we know Liu Hu a little. If you want to know, I should tell you. Speaking of Fu Bo, a touch of sadness suddenly flashed on Kuaizheng's face. Fu Bo, his old butler, lost his life in the city today to protect Kuaizheng. The old housekeeper has followed Kuaizheng for many years and has never given up. It can be said that in the years when Kuaizheng was at its lowest, if it weren't for the old housekeeper, Kuaizheng might not be able to support it......

Come to think of it, when Kuai Zheng was abandoned by his family, he had nothing.

Although he is a concubine, he is also the identity of a son, where does he know how to survive? How to do business, how to make money, he didn't know anything. Fortunately, the old housekeeper was here, and he made careful calculations, which allowed Kuai Zheng to survive the most difficult stage. Now seeing that life is better, but the old housekeeper will not have time to enjoy the blessings in the future, so he lost his life. This makes Kuaizheng's heart, how can he be happy?

Fortunately, he can distinguish between the important and the important.

Hiding the sadness in his heart, Kuai Zheng gushed endlessly, introducing things about Liu Hu to Cao Peng......

Before you know it, it's almost time.

In the barracks, the wind suddenly picked up, which made people feel a lot cooler.

Li Yan stood up suddenly, and arched his hand: "Son, Yan has come up with an idea, maybe it can make Liu Hu and Huang Zhong turn against him." ”

"Oh?"

Cao Peng was overjoyed, and hurriedly leaned over and asked, "Zhengfang, would you like to hear the details?" ”
