Chapter One Hundred and Seven

readx;

On the edge of the Xiangjiang River, an unusually tragic fight is being staged. The screams, shouts, and shouts of killing filled almost all the space within a radius www.biquge.info of tens of miles. Guan Yu used 80,000 foot soldiers and cooperated with 20,000 Fengyun cavalry to encircle and suppress Xu Huang, a partial division of less than 40,000.

When Guan Yu marched forward, he found that Xu Huang's lone army went deep to attack Xincheng a little rashly, and at the moment he led a group of men and horses, ready to swallow this lone army first, but handed over the army to Zhang Liao and Li Yan to command. Now that they meet on a narrow road, Xu Huang has fallen behind in terms of both the total number of troops and the number of cavalry. If you really want to fight, even if Xu Huang is determined to fight to the death, the outcome will be more than lucky.

"Kill me!" In the military formation, Xu Huang took the lead with a big axe, and wherever the axe went, many enemy soldiers were chopped off by him. Under Xu Huang's encouragement, Cao Jun, who was in a desperate situation, also fought desperately. The Jingzhou army that surrounded them couldn't start for a while.

"Dang!" With a loud bang, Xu Huang felt that his axe was blocked by a person, but this time he failed to chop the other party to death. At this moment, the wind swished behind him, and a spear pierced the back of his heart.

"Hey!" Xu Huang crossed the axe, and with a sweep, he blocked all the blades that came from front and back. "That's a lot of energy!" Chen Wu and Dong Xi intersected with him, and their arms were sore. At this time, Chen Wu blocked head-on, and Dong attacked behind the back, but Xu Huang easily cracked it.

"Let's get on it!" Both of them knew that they were far from Xu Huang's opponents when they fought alone, and they were surnamed Suo together. Not only them, but Zhou Tai on the side also intervened horizontally, and the three of them surrounded Xu Huang at the core, and the three blades could not leave Xu Huang's vital point. Xu Huang took the move concentratingly, preparing that whoever among the three had a flaw would immediately solve it with an axe.

It's not that Xu Huang doesn't want to escape, it's just that he knows in his heart that most of his subordinates are now foot soldiers, and it's a little unrealistic to run away directly if he wants to escape, didn't he see the graceful cavalry beside Guan Yu? Xu Huang is sure that once he hastily withdraws his troops, it will definitely be a dead end. You can only fight with each other first, and then see if there is a turnaround.

"Lord Wang, Xu Huang's commander is really powerful, he has fallen into a desperate situation, and he can still resist!" Seeing that Xu Huang, who was surrounded at the core, was still brave, Cao Jun was also fighting bloody under his inspiration, and Zhuge Jin, who came with the army, also sighed. Although the number of Jingzhou troops in the field is more than doubled, it is difficult to crush the opponent for a while, and the authentic victory is invincible.

"But that's pretty much the end of it!" Guan Yu sighed lightly, and then ordered the Fengyun Cavalry to also join the battle group. With the help of the cavalry, Cao's army, which was originally only in danger, was soon completely crushed. Xu Huang shouted and fought fiercely, but he himself was surrounded and entangled by Zhou Tai and the other three, and it was difficult to get out for a while, let alone command the army.

"Hey!" Desperately using an axe to open the blades of the three people, when Xu Huang found that the enemy army had all been thrown into battle, he hurriedly gritted his teeth and shouted: "Withdraw!" "Then he took the lead and went north to kill. He has been fighting to the death, because once he retreats rashly, he will inevitably be tracked and surrounded and annihilated by Guan Yu's cavalry. Now that the opposing cavalry has fallen into the quagmire of positional warfare, he can retreat calmly. To the north, there is Jingshan Mountain, and after withdrawing to the mountains, the other side's cavalry army is no longer capable of pursuing it like this, and he can slowly go to Nanxiang along the mountain road to join the Cao army there. As for Fancheng, if he had defended Fancheng with all his might from the beginning and did not mobilize most of his men to attack Xincheng, he might be safe. Now, I really can't keep it.

"It's a pity that Xu Huang ran away!" Zhuge Jin regretted the authenticity. Under Xu Huang's desperate rush, thousands of remnants broke away from the main battlefield with him and retreated all the way to Jingshan. The Fengyun cavalry were all trapped in positional battles and could not pursue for a while.

"He can't run!" Guan Yu looked at Xu Huang's side, but there were only thousands of people around him, but he was full of confidence. Zhuge Jin and Xu Huang didn't know that above Jing Mountain, Shamoke's 10,000 Wudang Flying Army was waiting for these thousands of people. With the strength of the Wudang Flying Army's mountain warfare, isn't it easy to deal with these thousands of remnants who are like frightened birds?

Xu Huang's retreat, the enemy troops in the field immediately lost most of their fighting spirit. Except for a few die-hard loyalists, the rest surrendered. Nearly 40,000 Cao troops, after the war, counted, except for more than 4,000 people who followed Xu Huang and escaped temporarily, the remaining 30,000 people, more than 11,000 were annihilated, and the rest were either captured or surrendered. In addition, the 10,000 defenders in Fancheng have also been resolved. In a word, Xu Huang, a partial division of 50,000 people, has been completely solved.

The next day, news came from Shamoke that after Xu Huang's remnants escaped into Jingshan, they were ambushed by the Wudang Fei Army. Thousands of people have been almost completely annihilated, and more than 1,000 people have been taken prisoner and are being taken to Xiangyang. Xu Huang himself was captured after falling into a trap, and he was also escorted along with the captives. Guan Yu was overjoyed when he heard this, and asked Xu Huang to be imprisoned in Xiangyang Prison first. After he destroyed Cao Hong, he came to persuade him to surrender.

At this time, Cao Hong, who was in Nanyang, was already as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, Xu Huang was annihilated, and Zhang Liao's troops entered Yanzhou, these two news were like two slaps of sticks, which caught Cao Hong off guard. At the same time, the back road was cut off, and Bingzhou and Youzhou were taken advantage of by Liu Bei, and these two news made Cao Hong feel like he had been slapped twice in a row, and he almost couldn't react. Now that Xu Huang is defeated and doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, Cao Hong simply feels like he has nowhere to start. By this time, he had fully understood that the reason why he would go so smoothly was that he went down to Nanyang and Yanzhou in more than ten days, but he was afraid that Guan Yu deliberately gave it to him, in order to induce his main force to go south. Although the main force has not all gone south, it is obvious that the garrison in Hebei is empty, and as a result, now Youzhou and Bingzhou will ask people to copy the back road.

Barely composed, Cao Hong still said abruptly: "Now, Hebei has been attacked, we still follow His Majesty's suggestion, break the army into pieces, cross the Yellow River, and then regroup in Hebei, and then recover Merge and Youzhou." ”

"This plan is very good, but what should be done in the land of Yanzhou and Nanyang now?" Cheng Yu frowned and asked. Now the situation in Hebei is critical, but the territory that Henan has worked so hard to fight for here cannot be said not to be. Cao Hong thought about it, but finally set his eyes on Zhang Jaw's body.

"Junyi, it's up to you to stay in Wancheng; On the Xuchang side, there is Boren stationed. Cao Hong arranged, and his face suddenly darkened when he heard this: Staying in Henan doesn't seem like a promising task.

"In the past, Zhang Xiu was still able to divide one side in Wancheng, but now he is staying in Wancheng, cooperating with Hongnong and the garrison of Henan, and the Boren of Xuchang, which can keep the foundation of Henan. When I return to the army and relieve the siege of Hebei, I will lead the army to the south again! Cao Hong tried to comfort him. Zhang Jaw nodded silently when he heard this, and at this time he couldn't help but agree. At that moment, Cao Hong announced that Zhang Jaw would lead an army of 20,000 to stay in Wancheng, and Xiahou Shang would lead an army of 30,000 to stay in Xuchang.

"Your Majesty, the king of Xiangyang has come to report that Xu Huang's group has been annihilated on the shore of sweat. Now Cao Hong's army stranded in Henan has retreated north one after another, leaving only Zhang Jaw and Xiahou Shang and others, leading the army to stay in Wancheng and Xuchang. "Above Tongguan, the guard general Wang Ping reported to Liu Beiyu, the Zhaolie Emperor who had just arrived here.

"Hehe, just with Xiahou Shang and Zhang Jaw, you also want to defend the land of Henan? After passing the order, the army immediately marched eastward, cooperated with Yun Chang, and wiped out all the Cao troops in Henan. In addition, tell Xingba to try to intercept Cao's army from crossing the river. In addition, inform the defenders of Yangzhou that they can act! Liu Bei finished arranging these in one breath in a good mood, and then he couldn't stop talking.

"Kong Ming, now that Cao Hong has been made by your clever plan, it seems that this year, Cao Wei's country will be taken by me. In this battle, you have made great contributions! After being a little excited, Liu Bei also did not hesitate to praise Zhuge Liang, who did not even dare to say it. Just when the two monarchs and ministers were touting each other, Chen Cangshou sent Hao Zhao to send someone to send an urgent military information.

"Oh? Sima Yibing went out of Chen Cangdao and prepared to march into Guanzhong? Liu Bei said with some surprise. With Sima Yi's current strength, it is indeed a bit surprising that he dares to continue to be arrogant with himself.

"Sima Yi also has to do it as a last resort, if he waits for us to destroy Cao Wei, he will not be able to capture him when he is entrenched in Hanzhong, so he will take the initiative to attack and want to deal with Cao Wei." Zhuge Liang was not so surprised.

"Sima Yi is very yin, since he is leading the army to attack, he needs to be careful!" The great Si Nong Mi Zhu, who was traveling with the army, was also cautious, and Liu Bei said disapprehantly: "Sima Yi has only tens of thousands of horses under his command, except for Lu Boyan and Uncle Zhang, who stayed in Hanzhong to guard against Lu Boyan and Uncle Zhang, the rest will never be more than 30,000." Chen Cang Hao Zhao has 10,000 defenders, and there are defenders from all over Tianshui to respond, Sima Yi's advance this time is bound to be in vain. If we hadn't been busy cleaning up Cao Pi, we would have annihilated him in one fell swoop. ”

"Exactly!" Zhuge Liang said with a smile. Seeing that the two of them were so confident, Mi Zhu was also relieved. As they expected, at this time under Chen Cang City, Sima Yi was being blocked by Hao Zhao and could not advance an inch.

"Hao Zhao, you are ruthless enough!" Looking at the corpses stacked under Chen Cangcheng and almost reaching the head of the city, Sima Yi also gritted his teeth and cursed. I thought that this Hao Zhao was a soft persimmon, but I didn't expect that I would kick the iron plate again.

"My lord, why do we want to march into Guanzhong at this time?" Wang Shuang on the side waited for Sima Yi to have a seizure, and then asked cautiously.

"If you don't march into Guanzhong, how can you only rely on the land of Hanzhong?" Sima Yi said a little helplessly. At this time, he already had a vague premonition in his heart: his dream of dominating the world was about to be completely shattered. At this moment, an urgent military information was sent to Sima Yi, who opened it and looked at it, his brows furrowed even deeper.
