The mountains are undulating and the water is full of meandering. In the wind and snow, Hua Fei led more than 5,000 elite soldiers from the headquarters, crushed the frost on the ground, and finally rushed to the narrow place at the source of the Ru River.

When Hua Fei arrived, Xia Houyuan, the famous Shenxing general of the Cao army, had already led more than 10,000 elite soldiers under his command, using strong shields and spears mixed with cloth to form a moving hedgehog formation.

They shouted "hooh" and shouted neatly, and slowly approached the **** riders led by Chen Zhi and Lu Zhu to the south.

Chen Dao, who was dressed in black armor and black robes, saw the formation laid out by Xia Houyuan, and knew that this was an effective battle formation for infantry to restrain light cavalry. The shields were enough to withstand the rain of arrows fired by the knights; The spears were the sharp weapons that the specialists used to deal with the war horses.

Such a formation, if it is used to deal with those horseback peoples in the north, it will naturally be a tragic battle. However, if it is used to deal with Hua Fei, who is in short supply of horses, it is a very effective method.

Because, Hua Fei and his subordinates knew that the war horse was not easy to come by, and they were reluctant to ride their horses into battle. Therefore, Chen Zhi's face, which was like a knife and axe, rarely showed a trace of hesitation.

However, he knew that he could not allow Cao's army to advance. Otherwise, once the Cao army is allowed to cross the water and set up a formation, their follow-up powerful forces will be able to pour in a steady stream.

This will undoubtedly be an unimaginable consequence for the already army, which is at a disadvantage in terms of troops. After only a moment's hesitation, Chen Zhi made up his mind.

He waved his gun and shouted, "Zizhong! You will command all the elite cavalry, and once the enemy formation is in chaos, you will give me a severe blow to Cao's army. ”

"Uncle Zhi! What do you want to do? Hearing this, Lu Zhu was shocked and stopped, "You must not act recklessly......

Before the sound fell, Chen Zhi had already "Ha!" With a loud roar, he rode his horse like a fly in the sound of 'hunting' in the black robe, raised his gun and rode towards Cao Jun's dense hedgehog formation.

Hua Fei, who led more than 5,000 elite soldiers to arrive later, happened to see the scene of Chen Zhi charging into battle alone. This glance only shocked him and almost lost his soul!

"Uncle and nephew!" Hua Fei let out an urgent voice, tears blurring his eyes in an instant. He knew that Chen Zhi was preparing to use his own strength to disrupt the formation of the enemy's elite soldiers, so as to find an opportunity for the elite cavalry to attack Cao's army.

But it was a formation of more than 10,000 elite soldiers, not an ordinary rabble! Under the stabbing of four or five thousand spears, can Chen Zhiyan have a chance to live?

The elk on the other side shouted helplessly: "Sharp arrows are wound!" Get ready! ”

Xia Houyuan, who was in the middle of the military formation, showed a mocking look at Chen Zhi who was galloping: "The spearmen are ready, as soon as the enemy general approaches, I will stab him and his men and horses into a mess of rotten meat!" ”

At this moment, Chen Dao, who was dressed in a black robe and a black horse, had already rushed to within twenty steps of the enemy formation, and he suddenly said, "Ha!" "The reins of the horse. The galloping war horse then rose up from the ground with four hooves, drawing a beautiful arc in the air, and even the people and horses went straight to Cao Jun's hedgehog array and fell.

In an instant, on the banks of the Rushui River, which was covered with white frost, a black rainbow rose into the sky. Time seemed to freeze at this moment, the biting cold wind drifted white snow, and the indomitable black rainbow jumped towards the hedgehog array that was waiting for it......

Hua Fei stretched out his right hand and opened his mouth, he wanted to shout, he wanted to scream, he wanted to roar angrily, but he couldn't make a sound.

Time is merciless, it will not stop for anyone, anything or anything, just in an instant, Chen Zhi and people and horses arrived in the sky above the hedgehog array.

"Stab him to death!" In Xia Houyuan's angry roar, a thousand spears drilled into the air and hurried towards Chen Dao's horse's belly with the sound of breaking wind.

At this moment, Hua Fei and the others smelled "Bah! With a loud shout, from that black rainbow, countless silver-white shining lights suddenly burst out.

One, two, or even countless silver rays of light bloomed in an instant, and in this instant, it was like a dazzling scorching sun suddenly born in the black clouds, and then turned into thousands of meteors and fell.

"When the ding-bang ......" In the countless chaotic crashing sounds, the silver light dissipated, thousands of spears were chaotic, and black clouds fell. Chen Zhi rushed into the enemy's hedgehog formation without danger, and immediately shot ten thousand snakes and spit letters, horses like dragons and people like tigers clashed back and forth in the enemy formation, and Cao's army was suddenly in chaos.

"Shoot the arrows!" In his hoarse scream, Lu Zhu first let go of the bowstring in his hand, and in an instant, he made a loud 'Xiu Xiu', and more than a thousand sharp arrows turned into rain and went away to Cao Jun in chaos.

"Kill!" Hua Fei, who was almost shocked, woke up when he heard it, and with his order, He Man danced the stick and Wei Yan dragged the knife to lead the five thousand elite soldiers, flying towards Cao Jun.

Xia Houyuan and his subordinates can be regarded as having fallen into blood mold.

There is Chen Zhi in the river and the sea; Affair Wei Yan and He Man, two big insects; In the distance, there are also elk and other arrows to shoot at the point; Suddenly, in the midst of the screams and roars, Cao Jun dragged a gust of bloody wind with bright red blood stains on the ground, and went straight to the north bank of Rushui and routed.

The three generals, Chen Dao, Wei Yan and He Man, took advantage of the situation to lead the infantry army, set up a formation by the river, and held the passage. The front sword and shield, the follow-up spear, the archers put the bow on the string, and the elite cavalry on both sides immediately, guarding the water of Rushui.

After a while, the flag on the north shore was unfurled, and Cao Cao personally led the army to arrive. The two armies are facing each other across the water, and the situation is tense.

At this time, Tai Shici, who had been fighting with Sun Ce for a long time in the south, ushered in an infantry army led by Xu Chu and other generals.

Sun Ce couldn't help but be shocked when he saw Xu Chu leading the army and coming out with a sword! He paid for himself: "A Tai Shi Ci is so difficult to deal with, and now there is a fat man, if you don't know how to advance or retreat, I'm afraid something will not be good." ”

Thinking of this, he struggled to force Tai Shici away, raised his gun and shouted: "Stop!" ”

Tai Shi Ci saw that he was brave and fought with him for hundreds of rounds, but he did not fall behind. So he didn't care about it and immediately put away the gun to see if he had anything to say.

Sun Ce thought to himself: "I had made an appointment to attack from the north and the south, but Cao Jun didn't wait for a long time, and Lao Tzu didn't have to be a spearman for Cao Cao, so he and Hua Fei's elite soldiers were fighting to the death." At that time, it will be me who will lose the strength of the soldiers. ”

Thinking that he ordered the troops to be collected, he slowly walked towards the county town of Baoxin in the south after breaking off with the four generals. Tai Shi Ci saw that his army was in good formation, so he did not pursue.

Turning his head and discussing with Xu Chu, Zhang Demei and others.

"At present, the lord is fighting Cao Cao in the north, and Cao's army is strong and the lord is weak. I intend to lead the fast horsemen to rush north to meet the lord. And you wait for the infantry army to go to the two mountain passes to listen to Lu Gongcao's orders, I don't know what you think? ”

Xu Chu said: "Xu will also go!" ”

"No!" Tai Shi Ci hurriedly waved his hand to stop him, "That Sun Ce is unstoppable, Zhong Kang can match him, you should sit here to deter him." ”

When Xu Chu heard this, he knew that Tai Shici was reasonable, so he had no choice but to raise his knife and remain silent. Tai Shi Ci saw that everyone had no objections, but they acted separately with the others.

Tai Shi Ci drank and ordered the horsemen to rest for a while, and after replenishing the arrows, dried fish, water and other things, he quickly rode his horse north; Xu Chu and others will lead more than 20,000 elite soldiers to form a formation and head towards the two mountain passes in the west.

And the young man in the two mountain passes was saying to Lu Su: "Lu Gongcao! This place is at the junction of Yu and Jing Prefectures, and now that the enemy army is attacking on a large scale, it has threatened the safety of Jingzhou, why don't you send someone to explain this matter to Liu Biao as soon as possible? ”

Lu Su was overjoyed when he heard this, and thought to himself: "Liu Biao's guy is not trying to forge ahead, causing our army to fall to such a field, and now everyone is coming to your doorstep, you can't sit on the wall anymore and watch, right?" ”

At the moment, he followed the policy of youth. Bian led everyone to quickly water and build a wall; Bian sent people to Xiangyang to report the matter at an expedited speed of 800.

The young man also suggested to Lu Su that he could first estimate the time when the ice wall pass would be built, and then delay the time a little, and send someone to explain the situation to Hua Fei, so that he could make arrangements as soon as possible.

Lu Su saw that he was reasonable, and he did it all one by one. So, after a while, a few more horsemen ran away from the two mountain passes and headed towards Rushui on the northern line.

At this time, at the source of Rushui in the north, Cao Cao saw the three strongest generals in the Huafei army, Chen Dao, Wei Yan, and He Man led the sword, shield, and spear elite soldiers, and captured the south bank of Rushui.

It was to lead the crowd to the north of Rushui in person, and ordered the soldiers to call highly: "Yanzhou Mu Cao Cao is here, and I have asked Runan Taishou Huafei to answer." ”

Hua Fei thought about it, I just lack time, and you still have to come to me to talk about it, isn't it just right? Therefore, he also prepared to beat horses to lead the crowd to the south bank of Rushui, opposite Cao Cao across the water.

But suddenly I thought: "No! This thief is very treacherous, and his troops are dozens of times more than mine, but he wants to talk to me here. In this, there must be some conspiracy to trick Lao Tzu. ”

Thinking about it, he turned the Buddha bead in his palm, stared at the black pressure in the north and couldn't see the edge of Cao Jun, and after a little thought, he had a plan.

Then he urgently called Lu Zhu to lead the fine cavalry and inspect the east area. He also ordered the army to prepare for contingencies, and then he beat the horse and led the crowd to see Cao Cao.

Cao Cao saw that in Hua Fei's army, 4,000 elite cavalry were dispatched, and they were still patrolling east of Rushui. An unknown cold glint flashed in his eyes, but he turned his head to the guard beside him and whispered a few words, and the guard nodded and left.

At this moment, Hua Fei was bubbling and blowing in the biting cold wind, across a frozen river, in the flying snow, riding a horse to attract the crowd to see Cao Cao.

When Cao Cao saw Hua Fei coming, he immediately laughed loudly and said, "Peng Zhan! Pengcheng farewell, don't come to the palace unharmed? ”

"you! You brought so many people to fight Lao Tzu, do you say Lao Tzu is sick or unharmed? ”

Hua Fei rolled his eyes at him from afar when he heard the sound, but he also laughed "haha" and said: "Don't hide it from Cao Yuanjun, after I returned from Pengcheng, I have had a wonderful life!" ”

"Oh?" In this era, there was an extreme lack of entertainment, and Cao Cao couldn't help but gossip when he heard it. Nai's eyes lit up and he said to Hua Fei, "I want to hear it in detail!" ”

Hua Fei wanted to delay time, but Cao Cao had other plans. In this way, the two 'old foxes' began to croak, across the water.

Hua Fei pointed to himself, and slowly talked about his experience after Peng Cheng's return, and said it in a subdued and frustrated manner. Cao Cao also listened with bright eyes and relish.

As soon as the two of them talked and listened, when they were talking, not far behind Hua Fei, several horses suddenly rode north, and another rode west. Behind Cao Cao was the frost and dust, and the flags were rolling. (To be continued.) )
