Chapter 86: Xu Chu VS Cao Hong

"Listen to Cao Jun, you must retreat to the south bank immediately, otherwise, this array of bows and arrows will not be as simple as falling at your feet!"

A junior colonel jumped forward and shouted loudly at Cao Jun's people. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

There was a noise among the soldiers of the Cao army, Cao Hong looked up, and saw that the other party had a large number of people, forming a semicircle to surround them inside, the number of people was estimated to be two thousand, and they were all cavalry, although his subordinates had five thousand people, but only five hundred people crossed the river at this time, and the previous five hundred people were only afraid that the other party had been controlled by the other party at this time.

Cao Hong knew in his heart that if it was a battle, they were not opponents, even if they waited for two more hours, when the third batch of troops crossed the river, they were still not opponents, and the other party obviously would not give them such a long time, so he had no choice but to retreat.

"Give a signal to the north bank, cancel the river crossing, and let the ferry come and pick up people!"

Cao Hong instructed the sergeant beside him, and the sergeant immediately blew the horn and sent a signal to the troops on the other side.

Cao Hongti immediately stepped forward and asked loudly, "Who is Your Excellency?" Where are my five hundred sergeants? Can you let it go back to the team? ”

Xu Chu nodded, and the junior colonel said: "My general is Xu Chu, the general of Runan, and my general said that the five hundred people of the Cao army should be released, but some items must be left as a souvenir!" ”

Cao Hong asked, "What items do you leave behind?" ”

Xiao Xiao said: "And armor, nothing else!" ”

Cao Hong rose in his heart with a wave of anger and left his armor, this is clearly a policy to deal with prisoners of war, the other party is insulting him, Cao Hong has a tyrannical temperament, if he didn't have too many scruples today, he would have waved his army to kill him, but at this time, the other party has repeatedly forced each other, how can he endure it.

"Humph! General Runan, the name is loud, I don't know if I have the ability, tell your general, if he can win against me, my 500 sergeants' weapons and armor are for you to take, if you can't defeat me, don't touch my 500 people! ”

Xu Chu moved his neck, he hadn't been with anyone for a while, he had been practicing with Dian Wei recently, Dian Wei's strength was greater than him, he was not an opponent in foot combat, but Dian Wei was not very good at riding battles, so he didn't have a satisfactory opponent in riding battles, although Zhang Xiu's martial arts were good, but after all, there was still a lot of gap with Xu Chu, and today there was a rider who wanted to compete with him, that was the best, Xu Chu wanted to see what the other party was capable of.

The two of them stepped forward immediately, and they didn't talk, they started directly, both of them are generals who are good at strength, and their weapons are exactly the same, they are both long knives, but Xu Chu's big knife has increased to seventy catties at this time, and Cao Hong's knife is sixty catties, and the difference between the two sides is ten catties.

This competition was very intense, both sides were blindly attacking, and every collision would stir up a burst of sparks, which made the soldiers on both sides dumbfounded, and they didn't dare to take a breath for fear of missing any wonderful links.

The two have already played more than 30 moves after a while, although in the eyes of outsiders, the two chess opponents will meet good talents, and the big ones are equal, but in fact, only the two themselves know which is better and which is inferior.

Cao Hong's chest was annoyed at this time, his arms were numb, and he had completely fallen into the defensive, but Xu Chu was still fighting fiercely, his knife was rigorous, his strength was fierce, a knife was faster than a knife, the knife wind covered Cao Hong's front, forcing Cao Hong to only defend, there was no room for counterattack, Cao Hong's heart was not good, he knew that if he continued to fight hard like this, he was not an opponent, so he sold a flaw, pretending to be defeated, dragging the knife with his right hand, turning the horse's head and turning his head to walk, he used his famous stunt - dragging the knife!

Cao Hong used a knife gauge when he faced He Man, the general of the Yellow Turban Army not long ago, when the two fought more than 30 times, Cao Hong had nothing to do with He Man, so he had a plan, so he pretended to be defeated, attracting He Man to chase, and then suddenly returned the saber, and suddenly cut He Man under the horse, but although Cao Hong used it earlier, but in the Three Kingdoms, the most powerful drag knife was not him, but Guan Yu.

The generals fight, it is inconvenient to turn back on the horse, and the target is very large, so if the other party successfully uses the drag knife meter, then the result is either death or injury, because the power of the drag knife meter is that the user is a surprise, and the second is a big knife to pick a circle, its strength is simply unmatched, the general military general can only sit and wait for death without preparation, and even if he is prepared, he can only barely use the weapon to resist, and in the face of the fierce force, the weapon is also easy to be cut directly, He Man died in this way, And Cai Yang, who passed five levels and cut six generals, died of the former.

Although Xu Chu didn't know that the other party was using a drag knife trick, he didn't chase it, he thought that he had won, since the other party was defeated, then why bother chasing.

And Cao Hong looked back and saw that Xu Chu was not fooled, knowing that his strategy had failed, and he pretended to be defeated, but in the eyes of the soldiers on both sides, he was really defeated, and the soldiers didn't know the strategy in his heart.

"Cao Hong is willing to gamble and lose, you can take the armor of the five hundred soldiers! Let's go, let's withdraw! ”

After saying that, he boarded the ferry without looking back, and thirty or forty large and small ferries began to go north, and after a while, they disappeared without a trace.

Xu Chu was also unceremonious, ordered all the prisoners of war of the Cao army to be stripped away, and still turned around on the beach and left, with the ability of the Cao army to cross the river, even if he was given half a day, it was impossible for him to transport all the troops over, so there was no need to defend here.

At the same time, on the outskirts of Luoyang, I heard that Liu Zhi, the Taishou of Runan, personally led the army to greet him, and the Han Dynasty Emperor and the Manchu Dynasty civil and military officials rushed to meet outside the city.

After asking, I learned that in the process of their escape all the way east, they were chased and killed by Li Dao and Xu Rong several times, and the civil and military officials suffered heavy losses, almost one out of ten, and there was no provision on the way to Luoyang, so there were many people who starved to death and were lost, so there were only so few people left.

Liu Zhi immediately learned Cao Cao's practice in history, first he was thoughtful to the Son of Heaven and the hundred officials, giving them the feeling that I am a good person and a loyal minister, and then asked the soldiers to boil the pot to cook rice, began to cook the broth, steamed steamed buns, and even the little emperor himself drooled, looking at the cauldron one by one, smelling the aroma of meat, and almost shedding tears.

After the things were cooked, one by one, they completely disregarded the face, and began to gobble up, Liu Zhi saw this situation, and sighed in his heart, the four-hundred-year-old Han had reached such a point, no wonder Cao Cao saw the court like this, and his ambition would grow, and he had the idea of replacing it.
