Prime Minister's Mansion, South Study.

A slight sound of footsteps woke Cao Ying from his contemplation, Huo Ran turned around, and Guo Jia had quietly entered.

"Lord, General Guan Yu has already set off with five hundred school swordsmen?"

Cao Ying's thin body trembled imperceptibly, and a trace of pain faintly flashed in his eyes, but it was soon replaced by indifferent determination. He said that Yuan let Quanxia know, and he should forgive the decision of today.

Taking a deep breath, Cao Ying asked, "Which path did Yun Chang take?" ”

"Don't worry, my lord." Guo Jia said, "General Guan Yu took the North Yellow Road, so he can avoid the horse butcher's horse exploration and ranger. ”

"Well, that's great." Cao Ying pondered for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "There is another thing to remember in the service of filial piety, the horse butcher is cunning and unusual, and our army must prepare for the worst. ”

"Don't worry, my lord." Guo Jia said, "If the horse butcher is lucky enough to escape the doom of flooding, he will go to Guandu Port in a panic, escape back to Guanzhong with the help of the navy, and under the command of the two generals of Zangba and Yu Ban to lead the army to attack Guandu Port in a starry night!" This time, the horse butcher will let him shed his skin even if he doesn't die. ”

"Alas~~" Cao Ying sighed lightly and said to Guo Jia, "Fengxiao, after this battle, you can send someone to bring Yuan Rang's eldest son Nan from his hometown in Qiaojun to Xuchang, which is quite regarded as his own and carefully raised." ”

Guo Jia said: "Jia takes orders." ”

……

Ten miles to the north of Bishui Pass, on the south bank of the Yellow River.

The Yellow River embankment has been carved a large gap, only the last thin layer of embankment remains, and the turbidity waves inside the dam are monstrous, and wave after wave of flood peaks violently hit the embankment, knocking the wooden piles supporting outside the dam to shake slightly, and it seems that it may collapse at any time.

Wang Fang's five hundred Liangzhou soldiers guarded not far from the gap, just waiting for Ma Yue's order to burst the embankment and discharge the flood!

The night is like ink, and I can't see my fingers.

Wang Fangzheng led dozens of Liangzhou light horsemen to patrol along the embankment on the south bank, the roar of the river covering up all the sounds in the world, and the burning mutton fat torches could only illuminate the space around a dozen paces away.

"Whoa~~"

The waves of the Yellow River crashed against the embankment on the south bank in waves, making a rhythmic beating sound.

"That's not right!" Although he couldn't hear anything, he couldn't see anything, but the vigilant Wang Fang still heard a trace of something strange from the sound of the waves crashing on the embankment, and rode his horse back to the two soldiers behind him and said, "You two, get off your horse and take a look, the sound of the waves hitting the embankment is a little wrong." ”

"Yes, General."

The two soldiers dismounted and walked towards the embankment with torches.

Before they reached the inner edge of the embankment, two soldiers suddenly shouted: "What man...... Uhh ”

"Woohoo!"

Two sharp arrows swept under the night sky, and instantly shot through the throats of the two soldiers, and the terrible howl stopped abruptly, and the torches in the hands of the two Liangzhou soldiers fell, hitting the ground and bursting into a shining spark, through the firelight, Wang Fang was horrified to find that countless black figures were rushing from the river to the south bank embankment.

"Not good, enemy attack!" Wang Fang was taken aback, and let out a long howl, "You two immediately go to report to the lord, and the rest of the brothers, come with this general, and drive these despicable sneak attackers into the river to feed the fish~~ Kill!" ”

"Kill, kill, kill~~"

Dozens of Liangzhou cavalry followed behind Wang Fang, fearlessly facing the unknown enemy army in front of the black pressure, not far from the camp next to the gap, and more than 400 Liangzhou soldiers also woke up from their sleep, and the soldiers who had never taken off their armor quickly turned over and rode their horses to help the battle.

In the blink of an eye, dozens of Liangzhou cavalry led by Wang Fang rushed into the middle of the black oppressive enemy army.

"Drink!"

Wang Fang shouted, and with a knife in his hand, he split a black shadow in front of him in half, and the hot blood splashed Wang Fang's face in an instant, and when the heavy smell of blood penetrated his nose, Wang Fang's expression immediately became hideous, and his bright black eyes had become red under the light of the fire.

"Hoho!"

The cold light flickered, and the two long knives flew close to the ground, cutting the horse's feet, Wang Fang's eyes were like splits, and he suddenly pulled the reins of the horse, and the mount under the crotch suddenly stood up, which was able to avoid the fatal slash, and when the two enemy soldiers fell into the air and were about to dodge back, the two iron hooves of the war horse had already stepped in the air, and kicked on their heads viciously.

"Poof!"

There were two muffled sounds, and the skull and blood were spilling out, and the attacker's head had been shattered like a watermelon.

"Sigh Rhythm ~~"

The mournful neighing of the war horse sounded endlessly from behind him, Wang Fang looked back in shock, only to see that the Liangzhou cavalry following behind him had fallen down continuously, although these soldiers were also veterans of a hundred battles, but their riding skills could not be as clever as Wang Fang, after all, they could not avoid the slashing of Guan Yu's school swordsman.

"Lao Tzu fought with you!" The long knife in Wang Fang's hand was raised high, and a majestic figure rushed towards him, and he shouted and slashed down, "Go die~~"

"Boom!"

"The light of the fireflies is also worthy of competing with the bright moon?"

A fierce sound of gold and iron sounded, Wang Fang suddenly felt that his arms were sore, the long knife in his hand could not hold it anymore and had already flown away, and then an indifferent voice sounded in his ears, and the next moment, a faint cold light swept across his neck, and Wang Fang felt that he was floating up completely~~ Suddenly, Wang Fang was horrified to find that his body was still on the ground, the body that had lost its head, and the blood gushed out from the broken neck like a fountain, and the next moment, the suffocating cold accompanied the heavy darkness, completely devouring Wang Fang's consciousness.

"Woo-ha!"

Guan Yu slashed Wang Fang with a knife, and then roared again, and the whole person turned into a green dragon and rolled over the embankment. Seeing that the main general was so brave, the morale of the five hundred school swordsmen was greatly boosted, but the Liangzhou cavalry was demoralized because of Wang Fang's death.

In less than a meal, the Liangzhou soldiers were defeated like a mountain and fell from the embankment of the Yellow River.

"Stop the pursuit!" Under the night sky, Guan Yu Huo Ran raised the Qinglong Yanyue Knife and said sharply, "Break the embankment and release the water!" ”

……

Bishui Pass.

Xiahoudun's 8,000 army has been trapped here for more than ten days, but there is still no movement in the direction of Xuchang! Jutu's Tanma would send the movement of the entire Yingchuan Plain to Ma Yue every half an hour, and at least so far, there has been no movement from Yingchuan's Cao army.

Ma Yue gradually became impatient.

"Wenhe." Ma Yue set his eyes on Jia Xu and said in a deep voice, "Calculating the time, Cao Ying's army should have returned to Xuchang, and the envoy sent by Xiahoudun to Xuchang for help has also been released, why has Cao's army not moved so far?" Could it be that Cao Ying is not ready to rescue Xiahoudun? ”

"Lord, I have a very bad premonition." Jia Xu said, "Cao Ying is probably brewing some conspiracy!" ”

"Conspiracy?" Ma Yue said coldly, "What conspiracy can Cao Ying have?" ”

Li Su suddenly said: "Lord, will Cao Ying send troops to break the embankment and flood us and Xiahoudun together?" ”

"It's possible!" Ma Yue said coldly, "Cao Yingxin is ruthless and can do everything, but the entire Yingchuan Plain is full of our army's exploration horses, and there are Wang Fang's cavalry patrolling along the Yellow River. Can't you become a birdman and fly from the sky? ”

"That~~" Li Su rolled his eyes, and then said, "Could it be that Cao Ying is transferring troops to punish generals and preparing to attack Guandu Port?" Guandu Port is the only way for our army to retreat to Guanzhong, if it is conquered by Cao's army, even if our army can eliminate Xiahoudun, it will not be able to return to Guanzhong. ”

"Attack Guandu Port?" Ma Yue said coldly, "If Cao Ying really dares to attack Guandu, this general really can't ask for it!" ”

Li Su said: "Why is this? ”

Ma Yue said: "If Cao Ying really dares to attack Guandu Port, General Ben can just release water to flood Xiahoudun, and then return to Shiguandu Port and attack Gan Ning inside and outside, can Cao Junyan be undefeated?" ”

"Report~~" Ma Yue's voice fell, and suddenly the Liangzhou cavalry galloped from under the night sky, and said sharply, "General Wang Fang's urgent report!" ”

"Huh, Wang Fang?" Ma Yue's heart jumped, exchanged glances with Jia Xu, and said in a deep voice, "Speak quickly!" ”

"When our army was patrolling on the embankment of the Yellow River, it was suddenly attacked by the enemy, and General Wang Fang ordered the villain to come quickly to report to the lord!"

"Enemy attack! How many enemy troops are there? ”

"I don't know!"

"Is it Cao Jun?"

"I don't know."

"You should know where you came from, right? It can't really fall from the sky! ”

"It seems to have crossed the river from Hebei."

"What, from Hebei?" Ma Yue was taken aback and lost his voice, "Could it be Yuan Shao's army?" Why did Yuan Shao get involved with Cao Ying? Cao Ying just slaughtered his brother. ”

"Ahh

Jia Xu suddenly shouted.

Ma Yue asked awe-inspiringly, "Wenhe, what's wrong?" ”

"Lord, it's dangerous here!" Jia Xu hurriedly said, "You can quickly gather the army, leave here immediately, and move to the high ground on both sides of the official road as soon as possible, quickly!" ”

"You mean~~" Ma Yue was shocked when he heard this, Huo Ran jumped up and shouted, "Dian Wei, where is Dian Wei?" ”

"The end will be here." Dian Wei's figure Huo Ran appeared, and said sharply, "What does the lord command?" ”

Ma Yue said sharply: "Order the three armies to immediately move to the high ground on both sides of the official road, hurry~~"

"Boom Boom~~"

Ma Yue's voice fell, and a huge roar suddenly came under the dark night sky in the north, and suddenly, even the ground under his feet began to tremble violently, Ma Yue's figure slammed suddenly, the whole person was like being devoured by thunder, and his face turned pale in an instant, damn Wang Fang, he couldn't even hold a section of the embankment, and the general would definitely peel you off!

……

Bishui Pass, inside the abandoned walled city.

Xiahoudun was awakened by the huge sound of scratching, Huo Ran turned over and sat up, and asked sharply, "What's the matter?" What's wrong? ”

"Look, General!" A pro-soldier pointed his finger forward and said loudly, "The Liangzhou soldiers have been messed up, as if they have been attacked!" ”

"Oh?" Xiahoudun's expression moved, and he said in a condensed voice, "Could it be that the lord's reinforcements have arrived?" ”

But soon, Xiahoudun found that the situation was a little wrong, by the light of the fire, Xiahoudun found that although the Liangzhou soldiers had been in chaos, they were rushing towards the mountains on both sides of the official road, but they did not hear the sound of killing, in other words, the Liangzhou soldiers did not seem to be in chaos because of a sneak attack, so what was it for?

"Wow~~"

A pile of stones piled up in front of Xiahoudun suddenly scattered without warning, and then the ground under his feet also began to tremble slightly, Xiahoudun's face changed, and suddenly realized something, and shouted: "It's not good, it's a flood, damn horse butcher dug the embankment of the Yellow River!" ”

"General, what now?"

"What should I do?"

Xiahoudun swept around and found that the city where Cao Jun was located was the lowest, and the terrain in front and back was slightly higher, but the front was already occupied by the Liangzhou soldiers, and the flood was also coming from this direction, and the back was a canyon, and there were cliffs on both sides, even if you escaped into it, it was inevitable that you would be caught up by the flood and drowned.

After such a delay, the raging flood had already cracked the ground, and Xiahou turned his head in shock, only to see a huge wave smashing down viciously towards the abandoned walled city.

"Quick!" Xiahoudun shouted loudly, "Find a place to hide, quickly~~"

Cao Jun shouted and fled.

"Wow~~"

The seemingly impregnable city was easily destroyed by the surging flood, and a broken piece of wood knocked Xiahoudun to the ground heavily, and before Xiahoudun could get up, the monstrous turbidity wave had been viciously smashed down with the momentum of destroying the world, and in an instant, Xiahoudun and more than 100 personal soldiers around him were drowned.

……

Guandu Port.

This morning, when Gan Ning was drinking in the Dazhai of the Navy Army, he suddenly saw the Jiangxia thief Chen Hu hurriedly entering the Dazhai and said urgently: "General, Cao Jun has been found twenty miles south of Guandu Port!" ”

"Huh?" Gan Ning Huo Ran sat up straight and said in a deep voice, "How many Cao Jun are there?" ”

Chen Hu said: "About 3,000 people. ”

Gan Ning said: "Only three thousand? ”

Chen Hu said: "General, do you divide your troops to meet the enemy?" ”

"Nope." Gan Ning said categorically, "The lord had an order before leaving, Guandu Port is related to the life and death of the five thousand Xiliang Iron Cavalry, and the stakes are very important and there is no room for failure. Repelled the three thousand Cao military forces, in case of falling into Cao Ying's trick and losing Guandu Port, so that the lord's five thousand Xiliang iron horses have no way to escape, then it will be a big mistake. ”

Chen Hu said: "Understood." ”

Gan Ning said: "Order the whole army to strengthen vigilance, oh, by the way, at the same time, we must also strengthen the patrol of the Yellow River, and don't let the Cao army escape from behind." ”

"Yes."

Chen Hu clenched his fists and took the order.

……

Twenty miles south of Guandu Port

Yu Ban and Zangba are leading 3,000 Cao troops to the north, with iron armor rolling and smoke and dust.

"Newspaper~~"

Suddenly, a fast horse galloped back from the front.

Yu Ban and Zangba's expressions perked up, and they hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Is there any change in Guandu Port?" ”

"Back to the two generals, there is no change in Guandu Port!"

"Huh." Yu Ban and Zangba looked at each other and smiled, and said loudly, "As expected, the Ganning Navy only held out." ”

……

Outside the Bishui Pass.

"He~~ Yawn! Yawn, yawn!! ”

Ma Yue sneezed three times in a row to meet the rising sun, and wrapped the cloak on his body tightly, but he still felt a trace of chill, Ma Yue's heart couldn't help sinking, and his heart was finished, he choked a few mouthfuls of Yellow River water last night, this time it must be a swing!

This disease was not a serious illness at all in the original world, but at the end of the Han Dynasty, it was a fatal Hades.

What's even worse is that Liu Yan is far away in Chang'an, more than a thousand miles away from here.

"Ah~~"

Sighing, Ma Yue looked behind him, only Dian Wei and more than a hundred personal soldiers followed behind him.

Looking around, the original location of the Bishui Pass has become a vast ocean, there are countless wooden stakes and weeds floating on the turbid water, as well as the severed limbs of the Cao army soldiers and Liangzhou soldiers, and there is a Liangzhou war horse that has not yet lost its breath is struggling in the water, desperately trying to climb the cliff, but in the end it was tragically destroyed.

Ma Yue shuddered, Huo Ran stood up and shouted loudly, "Where is Wen He?" Where is Ziyan? ”

"Lord!"

Ma Yue's voice fell, and a faint shout sounded not far behind him, and he turned his head in shock, only to see Jia Xu desperately holding a dead tree with both hands, carrying a load and floating in the turbid water, the hair bun on his head was scattered, the Confucian shirt on his body was torn, and his face was also scratched, how embarrassed and embarrassed he looked.

Meeting Ma Yue's gaze, Jia Xu was still in the mood to laugh, and gasped: "Lord, Jia Xu is here." ”

"Lord, Li Su is here."

As soon as Jia Xu finished speaking, Li Su's voice suddenly sounded on another "small island" not far away, and Ma Yue looked up and saw Li Su, Li Meng and more than 300 Liangzhou cavalry basking in the sun.

"Quick." Ma Yue hurriedly said to Dian Wei, "Quickly find a way to get the military division out of the water." ”

"Yes."

Dian Wei agreed, and quickly led more than a dozen soldiers to cut down some trees, built a raft and propped it into the water to rescue Jia Xu, until Jia Xu's feet landed, Ma Yue took two steps forward and grabbed Jia Xu's hands and looked up to the sky with a long smile: "Hahaha, Wenhe, you and I have escaped death again!" ”

Jia Xu also smiled and said: "Congratulations to the lord, congratulations to the lord." ”

This is the horse butcher, this is the Jia Poisoner!

If someone else is replaced, the four thousand iron horsemen under his command will die to only more than 300 horsemen, and he will also be infected with the wind and cold disease, but he is afraid that he will have the heart to commit suicide, but the horse butcher can laugh, as a great thing, because he escaped death again, as the saying goes, if you don't die, there will be a blessing in the future.

This is the surname of Xiao Xiong's heart!

Looking at the world, perhaps only Cao Ying can laugh when faced with a difficult situation, like the horse butcher.

Jia Xu took off the Confucian shirt on his body, wrung out the water, and then gasped and said to Ma Yue: "Lord, this place should not stay for a long time, whether it is the embankment of Cao Jundu, or Yuan Shao, there will inevitably be a follow-up, our army should leave as soon as possible, the top priority is to get on the land as soon as possible, and then disturb the five hundred rangers of General Jutu, and hurry back to Guandu Port." ”

"Hmm." Ma Yue nodded heavily, and said in a deep voice, "Let's talk about it when I go back to Guanzhong now." ”

"General Dian Wei." Jia Xu said this, then raised his head and shouted to Li Meng on another "small island" not far ahead, "General Li Meng, you can quickly order the soldiers to cut down wood and build a raft and leave this place as soon as possible." ”

After a busy day, more than 30 rafts were finally set up, but the robes on the more than 300 Liangzhou soldiers were all torn into strips of cloth, and even the horse butcher was only left with a bare body of gold armor, which was also cool, since the raft had been built, the horse butcher did not stop again, and led the remaining more than 300 Liangzhou soldiers to support the raft and march in the direction of Xingyang.

However, before the horse butcher landed on land, he ran into the five hundred school swordsmen led by Guan Yu, who were also coming on a raft, and the so-called enemies were extremely red when they saw each other, Guan Yufeng's eyes were wide, his face was full of murderous intentions, and he raised his knife and shouted: "Horse butcher, your death time has come!" ”
