Ten miles east of Gaoyang Pavilion, under a small mound, there were human figures, mixed with the snorting of war horses and the impact of weapons when they collided. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Cao Cāo's brows furrowed, and he stared intently at the sweaty scout in front of him, waving his hand from time to time to drive away the mosquitoes that had been buzzing in his ears. Although it was late at night, wisps of sweat still flowed down his sideburns from time to time. Although the midsummer has passed, the autumn tigers are still raging, even at night, wearing armor is still a difficult thing to bear.

However, Cao Cāo didn't care about these now, he had just received the news that the camp of the Wuhuan people and the Xianbei people was now in chaos, the fire was blazing, and the fighting was fierce.

Cao Cāo was surprised.

After rushing to Chenliu, Cao Cāo expected that Yuan Shao would go all out to recapture Chenliu and save his lifeline, and the best way was to use cavalry to raid, especially the Wuhuan and Xianbei cavalry, it didn't matter how many of these subordinate soldiers died, anyway, when the time came, just give some money, and these people were much easier to use than Yuan Shao's own cavalry.

Therefore, Cao Cāo was ready, he didn't want to sit and wait in Yongqiu, but as Lu Yi thought, he recognized Gaoyang Pavilion, the place where these Hu cavalry had to stop and rest, and it was more advantageous to carry out a sneak attack in this place than to wait for them to come to a decisive battle in Yongqiu tomorrow.

As early as when he sent out the army, he transferred Cao Ren, who was stationed in Qingzhou, back, and now, he has 10,000 Jing cavalry and 20,000 Jing Rui foot soldiers by his side. Cao Ren, Shi Lian, Le Jin, Wei Zi and other generals were all present, and Xiahoudun led 20,000 foot soldiers to wait in Yongqiu. Always ready to support.

He originally planned to surprise until the early hours of the morning, because that was the time when people slept deepest, and Jing Ring was of course the weakest. In order to conceal his whereabouts, he marched in the dark after nightfall, just to avoid being discovered by the other party's scouts.

But he didn't wait for him to launch. Someone else actually killed him and grabbed him first.

Cao Cāo knew that if this was true, those people must be Xia Yu. Xia Yu led more than 10,000 Jing horses to ambush in Langtang Shuixi, he already knew, but he didn't expect Xia Yu to dare to attack 20,000 people with 10,000 people. Although it is a sneak attack, the risk is not small, and once it cannot be solved quickly. If you are entangled by the other side, the superiority in strength is likely to turn the tide of the battle.

"Xia Yu wants to make meritorious contributions, but he wants to go crazy?" Cao cāo couldn't cry or laugh. In order to achieve this victory, he went all out, and was ready for a hard battle, Xia Yu didn't have reinforcements, no matter how bold Liu Xiu was, it was impossible to put Yuan Shao's main force unguarded. ran to the back of Yuan Shao to make trouble.

"It's just trying to steal credit." Cao Ren said lightly. He was just twenty-one years old this year, but he had been in charge of the army for four or five years, and the faint mustache on his lips made him a little more mature and steady, and he didn't look like a young man who had just performed the crown salute.

Cao Cāo shook his head with a wry smile and spat on it. Xia Yu wants to fight for merit. He also wanted to compete for merit, which was why he knew that he was not absolutely sure of the troops, and he didn't want to join forces with Xia Yu. Winning this battle and annihilating these 20,000 Hu cavalry, he can not only get a large number of war horses, but also have enough credit to fight against Liu Xiu to make up for the accidental loss of Puyang. In the next battle, he can choose, and he doesn't need to fight desperately at any cost.

"What now?" Weitz asked a little anxiously.

"What do you guys think?"

Cao Ren said without thinking: "Of course, if you kill them, you can join forces to kill all these Hu people, and you can share a little credit." ”

Cao Cāo narrowed his eyes, hesitated for a moment, and turned his gaze to Chen Deng: "Yuanlong, do you think this is feasible?" ”

Chen Dengzi Yuanlong is a native of Xiapi. His uncle Chen Qiuguan Zhitingwei was killed by Cao Jie because he and Yang Qiu failed to get rid of the eunuch Cao Jie. Because of his dislike of eunuchs, Cao Cāo presided over the affairs of Xuzhou for many years, and he refused to enter the curtain until recently, when Cao Cāo and Liu Xiu joined forces and swept the world, and he had no choice but to enter Cao Cāo's shogunate as an official. Personal preferences must be subordinated to the interests of the family after all, and as soon as Yuan Shao is destroyed, there is no doubt that Xuzhou will become Cao Cāo's sphere of influence, and then holding a shelf, it will not be beneficial to the Chen family in the future. Now he is a Sima under Cao Cāo, leading a tribe of about 1,000 people. Cao Cāo valued his talent very much, and often consulted him on some matters, otherwise it would not have been possible for him to have such an opportunity to speak on occasions like this.

However, Chen Deng didn't have any surprises, he just groaned for a while, and then shook his head: "It's not appropriate." ”

"Why?" Cao Ren's eyes narrowed unhappily: "Could it be that they just watched them kill all the Hu people?" ”

Chen Deng didn't look at Cao Ren, just looked at Cao Cāo quietly, Cao Cāo's eyes flashed, and he glanced at Cao Ren, and Cao Ren immediately closed his mouth. Chen Deng said unhurriedly: "Now is not the time to fight for merit, although Yuan Shao said that he delayed the fighter, but after all, he has an army of 80,000, and the trapped beasts are still fighting, so they should not be taken lightly." Xia Yu, Tian Yan and the like are just a martial artist, where do they know what the overall situation is, in order to grab merit, they do not hesitate to pay a heavy price, and they will definitely be punished by the hussar generals in the future. General Wei, why do you have to meet them in general? ”

Cao Cāo was comfortable listening to it, although he knew that Chen Deng might not really think so in his heart, but from ignoring him at the beginning, to being able to flatter him now, this is a kind of progress in itself. He didn't want to fall out with Liu Xiu at this time, after all, there was still a tough battle to fight next, not to mention that it was not Liu Xiu who was fighting with him now, but only his generals.

Xia Yu and Tian Yan, alas, forget it, they have also fought for many years, and they have made great contributions to stabilizing the Luoyang defense line, but they have not been promoted, so this time it will be for them.

"So what should we do now?"

"Give them a hand." As soon as Chen Deng's words came out, Cao Ren's eyes widened again, and Cao Cāo waved his hand silently, signaling Cao Ren to be restless. Chen Deng continued, now that we retreat, Xia Yu's casualties will definitely be very large, and Liu Xiu will definitely be unhappy when he finds out about it in the future. But it's not good for us to rush up, first, there is a suspicion of stealing merit, and second, Xia Yu is not prepared, and they may be disrupted, but dangerous. We rushed to the side of the battlefield and stood up to cheer, firstly, it might boost the morale of the Han army and hit the arrogance of the Hu people, and secondly, if Xia Yu and them were in danger, we could also rescue them in time. At that time, Xia Yu must only be grateful to the general, and will have no other thoughts.

Cao Cāo nodded repeatedly, and then ordered Cao Ren to lead the cavalry to set off first, and he himself led the infantry to follow. Cao Ren saw that Cao Cāo had already made a decision, and although he was angry, he was not easy to attack, so he immediately ordered to set off.

Under an order, the soldiers lit torches, thousands of torches were like a sea of stars that suddenly appeared, illuminating a huge flat ground as bright as day, 30,000 troops showed their majestic military appearance, and 10,000 Jing cavalry immediately rushed out of the big formation and galloped towards Gaoyang Pavilion.

Gaoyang Pavilion, fierce battle is in full swing.

Micah took advantage of the time when Xia Yu and the others stormed the camp of Badun to gather men and horses, although there was not enough time to speed up, and could only barely form a formation, but it also played a big role. The Xianbei people tied their war horses together to form a blocking formation, the archers crouched behind, desperately shè arrows, and Mica personally led 10,000 Jing horsemen to withdraw from the camp, giving up space for acceleration.

Xia Yujing was in the battle array, and he knew what they wanted to do as soon as he saw the movements of the Xianbei people. He immediately issued an order, ordering Tian Yan's infantry battalion to dismount and fight on foot, using the infantry formation they were good at and blocking the Xianbei attack, and ordered Lu Yi to lead the knights of the Liangzhou Han Seventh Battalion to immediately break away from the main formation and attack the Xianbei cavalry who were assembling.

The rapid sound of war drums spread the order, and Lu Yi was overjoyed, he knew that Xia Yu was repaying the favor, and handed over the task of the main attack to the Hanqi Battalion in Liangzhou, and he and Tian Yan went to clean up the Xianbei people who abandoned their horses and fought on foot. The master will be the partial teacher who is restrained by himself, Xia Yu is really interesting.

Lu Yi raised the bow in his hand and shouted: "Change formation!" Change formations! ”

The soldiers of the seventh battalion of the Han Dynasty heard the drums of the changing formation, immediately left the battlefield, and made a circle to the right, the original wide formation became longer and longer, and gradually turned into a wild goose marching array, Lu Yi took the lead, that is, the sharpest goose beak, behind him, Duan Xuan, Jiang Wu and others turned into unfolded wings, and swept towards the Xianbei people.

The horse's hooves fluttered and trampled in dust, the dew that had not yet had time to condense was kicked into mist by the jumble of horses' hooves, and the green weeds were trampled into grass juice, staining the horses' hooves and the land green. The tremors of tens of thousands of war horses trampled like bursts of ripples, and the earth trembled, as if a huge dragon was lurking, and now the dragon woke up and burst out with a thunderous roar.

Lu Yi drew his bow and arrows, and the cloth wrapped around the shaft of the arrow lit on the torches of the guards next to him, and suddenly lit up, illuminating his face that was a little red with excitement. He let go of his strings, and the rockets rushed away, and the flames were blown by the strong wind, like a brilliant meteor.

"Pounce!" An arrow struck one of the humble knights in the chest, and the fire immediately licked his beard, and he screamed, reached out to grasp the shaft of the arrow, and pulled it out with all his might. The barb on the arrow hooked a large piece of flesh, and he screamed in pain, and reached out to cover his chest, but the whiskers that were lit were curled and soon scurled up in his hair, and his face creaked. The knight scrambled and staggered, turning and falling from his horse.

"Kill!" Koji Yi let out a long laugh, and Tima crashed in.

The soldiers of the Jincheng battalion roared loudly and smashed into the left flank of the Xianbei people.

Micah couldn't help but gasp as he looked at the Han army that was changing smoothly, he didn't expect that there was such a jingzhan riding skill in the Han army, which was much more clever than the Han cavalry he usually encountered. So far, the most fierce knight in the Han army he knows is Gongsun Zhan's White Horse Yicong, in the first battle of the northern frontier, Gongsun Zhan escaped from Tan Shihuai's men, although defeated, but left a deep impression on Mika. For a long time, Micah thought that the White Horse Yicong was the pinnacle of the knights of the Han army.

Today, he saw a knight of the Han army who was by no means weaker than Bai Ma Yicong, or even a few points stronger.

Mika's heart sank to the bottom. He desperately wanted to buy a little time, but the opponent didn't give him time at all, but instead used the battle formation in front of him to block his vision, went around in a circle, and hit his left rib at once.

The reaction is fast enough, the shot is ruthless enough, and it is more like a wolf than the wolf on the grassland.
