This time, Cao Cao did not cut off the enemy's head, but was blocked by the big axe in the enemy's hand.

The general held the ladder with one hand, and with the other hand, swept Cao Cao and the surrounding soldiers back with an axe, and then fell steadily on the city wall with his arms and feet.

"My lord, be careful, this man will be dealt with in the future." A general next to Cao Cao said, he saw that the person was not weak, and those who dared to use the big axe as a weapon were generally fierce people, Cao Cao was not good at martial arts, and he must not be his opponent, and how could he let the lord meet the enemy's subordinates and watch from the side?

The appearance of his life is short, shorter than ordinary soldiers, holding a long knife standing on Cao Cao's side, looking a little funny, this person is Cao Cao issued a recruitment order after admiring Lejin.

"My lord? I think you are that Cao Cao, the general is dedicated to the country, a certain respect, I didn't want to be your enemy, but Dong Zhuo had to repay me for knowing the kindness, remember that the person who killed you was Hedong Xu Huang. Xu Huang sighed.

Xu Huang was originally a small official in Hedong County, and one day Dong Zhuo, who was the Taishou of Hedong at that time, happened to find his bravery, Dong Zhuo was rough by nature and loved brave people, so he let Xu Huang join his own Xiliang Army as a partial general under Guo Yan, and then Xu Huang was gradually promoted because of his military merits, and now the official position has reached the rank of Captain of the Cavalry.

Xu Huang is loyal, because Dong Zhuo has the grace of knowing him and Dong Zhuo does not have many bad deeds, so he did not rise up after Dong Zhuo's death, but wanted to avenge Dong Zhuo to repay the kindness of the encounter, but he Xu Huang was against what the Xiliang generals said about slaughtering hundreds of officials, but what can others do with their words, at this time he is also contradictory in his heart.

He had heard of Cao Cao's name, and what he did also won Xu Huang's heart, he was a master, but Xu Huang could only say that the two hated to see each other too late.

After Xu Huang finished speaking, he snatched a few steps and slashed towards Cao Cao with an axe, and the big axe fell towards Cao Cao with the momentum of splitting Huashan.

Cao Cao saw that his offensive was fierce, and he didn't dare to take it strongly, so he hurriedly took a few steps back, and Le Jin naturally wouldn't sit idly by.

Le Jin, who was standing there, was a little funny, but after the long knife was wielded, there was no sense of disobedience, and the long knife in his hand was like a flash of lightning that quickly slashed towards the big axe in Xu Huang's hand.

The knife and axe collided, Xu Huang took two steps back, Le Jin took five steps back, and Le Jin was far inferior to Xu Huang in terms of strength.

Cao Cao was a little surprised, he had never heard of Xu Huang's name, he had never thought that there were such brave people in the Xiliang army.

He Cao Cao knew how Lejin's force was, in fact, Cao Cao didn't pay much attention to him when he first came in to join him, after all, his appearance was really not very pleasing, but after Lejin defected to Cao Cao, he was ordered to return to his county to recruit troops, and he recruited as many as 1,000 people, so Cao Cao promoted him to the commander of Chen Du and commanded the thousand people.

Which thought that Le Jin gave him a surprise after that, although his appearance was not good, but he was very brave, every time he fought in a battle, his thousands of people were driven by Le Jin's combat effectiveness was also very strong, Cao Cao was able to escape after being killed by Lu Bu, a large part of the reason is that Le Jin led his troops to resist Lu Bu's pursuers.

In a word, this Lejin is very tiger, and he dares to fight and rush against anyone, and his martial arts are indeed not weak, so he is now deeply used by Cao Cao.

Le Jin is not nervous when he sees that his strength is lost to Xu Huang, he dares to fight and dare to rush, and naturally he has the ability, otherwise he would have died early, his strength lies in flexibility.

Xu Huang stabbed at Le Jin with the tip of the axe, Le Jin no longer fought hard with him and flashed sideways, Xu Huang was unforgiving, and he wanted to cut Le Jin into two pieces.

Le Jin kicked hard with both feet, jumped back half a meter and escaped from Xu Huang's attack range, and then took advantage of Xu Huang's pre-performance to grab a few steps forward, and the long knife in his hand turned into a white horse and slashed at Xu Huang's face.

Xu Huang didn't expect the enemy general to be so agile, he is a powerful general, and the most annoying thing is the agile opponent, it is true that one force will drop ten, but the opponent's strength is not too weak, and he can't completely crush it.

Hurriedly retracted the big axe and lifted it up, blocking the fatal blow with the handle of the axe.

When Le Jin saw that he couldn't make a hit, he retreated a little and waited for the opportunity to move.

Just when the two wanted to fight again, there was a sound of gold from the city, and it turned out that Guo Yan and others saw that it was too late, and the soldiers were also exhausted and withdrew their troops.

Xu Huang didn't attack anymore, but he slowly returned to the city along the ladder with the soldiers around him, and only slowly retreated after the soldiers retreated, and the last one climbed down the city wall.

Cao Cao did not order the pursuit, because the defenders on the city wall were also very exhausted.

Cao Cao breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at the Xiliang army commander who was receding like a tide.

Later, Cao Cao and Lü Bu ordered people to count the battle losses, and their own army suffered more than 3,000 casualties in one day.

"Wen Hou, the Xiliang Army is very well equipped, and our defense advantage is not very big." Cao Cao sighed.

The situation faced by the four city walls was similar, and Lu Bu also had a deep headache.

"Does General Cao have a strategy to break the enemy?" Lu Bu asked.

"I want to attack the local camp at night, the focus is not to kill the opponent's soldiers, but to burn the enemy's siege equipment, as long as the enemy army does not have these siege equipment, the pressure on us to defend the city will be greatly reduced." Cao Cao said.

"Guo Yan and the others are quite capable of commanding troops, and they must be prepared at night." Lu Bu was a little hesitant when he heard this.

"We will only burn the enemy's siege equipment this time, and we will not fight with it, as long as Wen Hou leads the light cavalry to pretend to attack the camp to attract the enemy's attention, I will lead the army to attack and burn the equipment to retreat."

"Okay, according to what the general said, you and I will go out of the city and attack the camp tonight."

That night, Lu Bu led 5,000 cavalry to pretend to be a sneak attack on the Xiliang army camp, the Xiliang army was indeed heavily guarded, Lu Bu did not get any results, but he did attract most of the enemy's attention, Cao Cao took advantage of the situation to lead the army to raid, burning countless siege equipment.

Cao Cao's strategy was also a coincidence, Lu Bu was the first enemy of the Xiliang army, how could everyone let go when they saw Lu Bu attacking Xiliang? If it is reversed, Cao Cao will lure the enemy, I am afraid that this strategy will not work.

Lu Bu luring the enemy is also dangerous, and there are a lot of cavalry in the Xiliang Army, he also wonders why the Xiliang Army is like a chicken blood when he sees him, and a lure to the enemy makes him lose nearly 2,000 cavalry, if it is not for Cao Cao's timely arson that the Xiliang Army has to return to the army in order to fight the fire, he really doesn't know if he can run.

Fortunately, the strategy was also a success, the Xiliang army lost the siege equipment after the quiet for a short time, besieged but not attacked, just cut down trees every day to make ladders, they knew that Liu Meng was going to come back, and time did not allow them to build a well and rush the car.

Although there is no advantage of Jing Qi rushing to the car, but the bravery of the Xiliang army still makes Cao Cao and Lu Bu soldiers and horses lose a lot, at this time the morale of the two soldiers and horses has fluctuated a little, although there is no danger of losing for the time being, but I don't know how long it can last.

Half a month later, Liu Meng finally arrived at the outskirts of Luoyang.
