The scout came back and reported, saying that the mouth of the Luoli Valley was only half a mile away, and the cliffs on both sides were not high, and there was no Jingzhou soldier ambush, "Out of the valley, there was only the garbage discarded by the Jingzhou soldiers, the rags, and there was nothing left." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Cao Zhang was relieved when he heard this, so he ordered Cao Bing to stop and rest, bury the pot to make food, and instructed the generals: "Stay here tonight, eat and drink enough, and pursue tomorrow for another day, and then arrive at the north bank of the Yellow River, hehehehe, this time, even if you can't capture Liu Cong alive, you have to drive him into the Yellow River and drown him to death!" ”

(Over there, Cao Chang is planning a good thing, preparing to use another day of pursuit, he can drive the Jingzhou soldiers who lost their armor and fled into the Yellow River to drown, here Liu Cong has arranged the pocket, and opened the opening, waiting for Cao Zhang to drill in.)

It turned out that from outside the city of Yanzhou, Liu Cong took 40,000 horses and pretended to escape, while escaping, he also sent Wei Yan, Deng Bao and other generals to lead troops to intercept Cao Bing, Liu Cong pretended to be sick and never showed up, and discarded a barracks every few days, which created an illusion for Cao Zhang, Cao Ren, Cheng Yu and them - Liu Cong drank the dirty water in the cool river, he was not lightly ill, and he was about to die, and most of the Jingzhou soldiers were also sick, and basically had no combat effectiveness.

Therefore, we must continue to pursue until the Jingzhou soldiers are wiped out, and Liu Cong must be captured or killed alive, so that he will disappear from the earth from now on, and he will never be able to come out to compete with Cao Chengxiang for the world.

Under the domination of this illusion, Cao Zhang took 60,000 Cao soldiers, and also transferred Cao Ren's 20,000 from the Dongjun front line to join the pursuit team, 100,000 Cao soldiers, crazy to chase along the route of Jingzhou soldiers' escape, along the way not afraid of Jingzhou soldiers ambush, not afraid of their own attrition, until the time of the Lori Pass, in addition to the attrition and outdated Cao soldiers along the way, there are still 60,000 Cao soldiers left.

When these 60,000 horses arrived at this time, they were almost tired and crotched, and when they heard Cao Zhang's talk about accommodation and eating, they all insisted on cooking and eating a few bites, and fell asleep, and they all sat in the wilderness with the stars in the sky and had a good dream -- tomorrow they would go to the Yellow River to capture Liu Cong alive.

As mentioned earlier, Liu Cong has not shown up all the way in the past few days, and at this time he has become a good pocket in the Yellow River, waiting for Cao Bing to drill in.

It turned out that nine days ago, after Liu Cong arranged for Wei Yan and Deng Bao to retreat and block Cao Bing, he took Liang Zhu'er and more than a dozen of their own soldiers to the north bank of the Yellow River.

After Liu Cong came over, he chose the ground to be the battlefield, and then urgently transferred Zhou Cang Han Daorong to bring 8,000 elite soldiers from Hujiao Pass, Huang Zhong to bring 20,000 elite soldiers from Yuzhou, and Liu Xian to bring 5,000 elite soldiers from Deng County.

In the evening of that day, Wei Yan sent someone to report that his men had passed Lori Mountain, and they were staying in the south of Lori Mountain at this time. The scout also said that Cao Zhang and Cao Bing had chased to the north of Lori Mountain. Please instruct the Lord.

Liu Cong was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately ordered Zhang Liao: "Mobilize three thousand Jingzhou iron cavalry tonight, make preparations early, march tomorrow on the third watch, and arrive at the mouth of the Loli Valley to ambush on the fifth watch, and wait for Wei Yan and Deng Bao to lead their troops to engage Cao Bing, just like this." Zhang Liao was ordered to prepare.

Liu Cong also ordered Huang Zhong, Zhou Cang, Han Daorong, and Liu Xian: "Personally, with his own men and horses, he rushed to the mouth of Loli Valley overnight tonight to ambush." After dawn tomorrow, after watching Wei Yan Deng Bao and Cao Bing fight, it is just like this. The generals took orders and went to prepare.

Liu Cong stood in the tent and sneered: "It's as simple as that, the time has come to recover the Central Plains in one fell swoop!" Saying that, he instructed Liang Zhu'er: "Prepare immediately, after dinner, we will go first, rush to the mouth of Lori Valley, and join Wei Yan's people." ”

At dawn the next day, all the men and horses gathered in front of the mouth of the Lori Valley, Liu Cong instructed Wei Yan and Deng Bao to lead the original team to rest in place, and then issued an order: "The first group of people and horses of our army is the Jingzhou Iron Cavalry, led by Zhang Liao and Liu Feng Guanping as the vanguard, and immediately killed the valley mouth to attack the Cao soldiers, and the follow-up people and horses An echelon followed.

The follow-up troops followed first of all Huang Zhong's 20,000 horses, followed by Zhou Cang, Han Daorong, and Liu Xian's men.

After three days, Wei Yan and Deng Bao's men and horses were enough to rest and recover their strength, and then they followed up as a reserve echelon to take over the recovered counties along the road. ”

After Liu Cong finished speaking, he turned his face to Xu Shu and said: "Mr. Xu is waiting here, and three days later, he will counterattack with Wei Yan and Deng Bao's men, and according to the original agreed plan, he will be responsible for handling the takeover of various counties and counties." Xu Shu agreed.

Liu Cong looked up at the sky, and only heard the sound of roosters crowing on both sides of the Yellow River, so he smiled and said: "From now on, the sky will be bright!" Let's go! Shouting and beating the horse, he rushed forward with Liang Zhuer, Lai Fatzi and hundreds of personal soldiers, passed through the Lori Mountain Canyon, and killed Cao Bing where he was staying.

When Liu Cong led the troops out of the canyon, Cao Zhang was also assembling the team at this time.

At this time, although there were still more than 40,000 horses, but after more than ten days of rapid marching, the Jingzhou soldiers did not catch up, but they were almost tired and crotched, they did not eat well, slept well, and fought from time to time, all wearing straw sandals, and most of them had blood blisters on their feet.

In the past ten days, even the iron man can't bear it.

No, last night I ate some rancid dry food and drank a stomach of cold water, and lay down in the grass nest for a while, and before I woke up, the order to gather was given again, and everyone had to grit their teeth and insist on getting up, ready to eat something.

At this time, Cao Zhang passed down the word, saying that the brothers should hold on, and the critical time has come, as long as you pass through this canyon today, you can capture Liu Cong alive, "We are in the last battle, and the first battle will decide the future." Since then, the world has been at peace. Well, as long as you make a contribution in this battle, the prime minister will definitely have all kinds of rewards, what you like, you can drink as much as you can, you can eat as much as you can, you can eat as much as you can, you just like the girls, and the prime minister will find a way to satisfy you! ”

Cao Bing was as tired as that son, and these words that encouraged them to work hard had long been tired of hearing crookedly.

At this time, they don't want to do anything, needless to say that it's good meat, just give them a beautiful girl, and they don't have much interest in making it! The most urgent need was to have a suitable place to lie down and sleep him for three days and three nights!

However, Cao Zhang's order was passed down from level to level: "All units will eat dry food immediately, and when they are full of food and drink, they will immediately enter the battle, pass through the canyon, and capture Liu Cong alive!" ”

At this time, I only heard the sound of horses' hooves sounding like thunder in the canyon, the sound was getting closer and closer, closer and closer, Cao soldiers panicked, hurriedly threw away dry food and the guy to prepare to fight, only to see a general in the morning light riding a white horse and wielding a steel knife, just like the god Arhat of the day, leading a group of people and horses to rush over.

This Liu Cong led the Jingzhou Iron Horse to gallop too quickly, and there were bursts of dust under the horse, and when Cao Bing saw where he could resist, he didn't need to say anything, run! In this way, the coaxing spread out in all directions, the climbers climbed the mountain, the cliffs jumped the cliffs, and Cao Bing, who didn't have time to jump off the cliffs and climb the mountains, turned around and scattered the ducks and fled the same way.

At this time, Liu Cong's Jingzhou Iron Cavalry had already entered the Cao Bing brigade, just like that group of fierce tigers rushed into the flock of sheep, killing at will, as if entering a no-man's land.

Well, it is said that it is like entering a no-man's land, but in fact, there are Cao soldiers who have escaped everywhere.

Most of Cao's soldiers are infantry, they escape too slowly, and they huddle together like a flock of ducks, where do you move?

When Liu Cong saw it, he put aside Cao Bing and let the cavalry chase and kill, and he patted his horse and raised his sword, looking for Cao General to fight. However, at this time, Cao Zhang, Zhou Xing, and Cheng Yu's strategists had already been stuffed into the deserter team, and they were entangled by the deserters and couldn't help themselves, where could they turn around and fight, so they had to follow the deserters to the original way.

So, Liu Cong slowed down his pace, patrolled left and right to look for Cao Jiang, and when he looked at it, he saw that his three thousand Jingzhou iron cavalry had all rushed out of the canyon and chased after Cao Bing to kill.

Seeing this, Liu Cong instructed Zhang Liao: "Don't relax even a step, keep chasing and killing, and don't give Cao Bing a chance to ease." ”

Watching Zhang Liao lead his troops to chase and kill, when Liu Cong looked back, he saw Huang Zhong leading a large group of infantry out of the valley.

Liu Cong observed the battlefield and instructed Huang Zhong: "The old general doesn't have to follow up for the time being, just settle here for a day, divide the 20,000 horses into ten teams to pursue and kill Cao Bing on all sides, and be sure to chase and kill more than 50 miles, and then return to gather here, waiting to meet the men and horses behind."

Lori Mountain a fight, Liu Cong's Jingzhou soldiers won a complete victory, to the time of dark, the battlefield was cleaned up, Liu Cong took Liang Zhu'er and one hundred and ten personal soldiers to catch up with Zhang Liao's Jingzhou iron cavalry, and then, non-stop, continuous pursuit, five days later rushed to Yanzhou outside the city.

has been chasing here, and has not chased Cao Zhang and Cao Ren. Liu Cong stayed, rested in Yanzhou, waited for the infantry to come up, and marched to Yecheng.

Liu Cong rewarded Fan Dacheng, the assassin of Yanzhou, in Yanzhou. Three days later, he led 50,000 horses and horses to Yecheng.

Yecheng was originally Yuan Shao's old nest, when Yuan Shao occupied Hebei, defeated Gongsun Zhan, and built Yecheng into his own military and political center, and had the strength to fight in the east and west for several years, and finally developed and strengthened his strength here, becoming the most powerful warlord at that time.

Later, he fought with Cao Cao, and everyone knew that after the battle of Guandu, Yuan Shao was defeated and Cao Cao was victorious, but at that time, Yecheng was still in the hands of Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao's strength is still very big in Hebei.

Later, Yuan Shao died of illness, and Cao Cao came over After a few years, he cleaned up Yuan Shao's three unsuccessful sons, and even Yuan Shao's second daughter-in-law, Zhen Mi, also snatched it over and became his daughter-in-law.

In this way, Yuan Shao's lair was occupied by Cao Cao.
