Chapter 211: Self-Severed Arm

Xu Huang has been taking refuge in Cao Cao for two or three years, and with the Eastern Expedition and the Western Expedition, the official worships General Fenwei, which is considered to be a little famous. Yan Liang had also heard his name, although he didn't dare to underestimate it too much, but he didn't take it seriously.

The iron knife in his hand pointed at Xu Huang and sneered: "Are you Xu Huang who followed Yang Feng and was born in Caokou?" It's a pity that you have no eyes, abandoned the grass Kou Yang Feng, and followed the traitor Cao Cao, you are really ashamed of your parents, ashamed of your ancestors and ancestors, let me cut down your unworthy descendants for your ancestors! ”

"Hugh the benefits of your tongue, and see a real chapter under your hands!" Xu Huang didn't quarrel with Yan Liang either, slapped the horse with an axe, and killed it.

Yan Liang roared, and the iron knife in his hand was unfolded, like a storm crashing on the shore, wave after wave, Xu Huang saw the move, saw the dismantling, and calmly responded to the battle. The two knives and axes went back and forth, like butterflies wearing flowers and butterflies, and the battle lasted twenty-seven or eight rounds.

"Where will the thief go, leave the head!"

Yan Liang lost two generals in a row, and the more he fought, the more courageous he became, and he chased after him. However, the horse under Xu Huang's crotch is a good horse in the world, and his foot strength is better than Yan Liang's Dawan horse, although the horse is in hot pursuit, he can only watch Xu Huang return to his own battle.

"Yan Liangxiu goes, let Xiahoudun come and ask for advice!"

Seeing Yan Liang showing off his might in front of the battle, the one-eyed Xiahou couldn't hold back the anger in his heart, urged the horse out of the battle, brandished the mace in his hand, and fought with Yan Liang.

Yan Liang fought two battles in a row, a little tired, facing the famous fierce general Xiahou Yuanrang in Cao Ying, he didn't dare to be careless, concentrated his spirit, and went all out to face the battle.

When conquering Lu Bu. Xiahoudun was appointed as a pioneer, and was shot in the left eye by Cao Xing in the Battle of Pengcheng, and since then he has been blind in one eye, and is known as "Blind Xiahou". Although his eyesight was affected, Xiahoudun's fighting spirit was not diminished at all, and whenever there was a battle, he would always take the lead in charging into battle, and among the generals of the Wei army, he existed like a wolf.

Cao Cao's generals are like forests, but in terms of status. The first to none are Cao Ren and Xiahoudun. The two of them are equal in command ability, and in terms of martial arts, Xiahou is superior in skills, but lacks strategy. It is slightly inferior to Cao Ren in terms of stability.

In the middle of the battlefield. The two generals are fighting non-stop like a marquee. The shouts were like thunder and fury, and the sound of gold and iron was deafening, and there were fifty or sixty rounds of battle. Xiahoudun couldn't resist it, and secretly said in his heart: "This Yan Liang really deserves to be a famous general in Hebei, his martial arts are indeed good, I am not an opponent, so I should retreat quickly!" ”

After making up his mind, Xiahoudun made a false move, deceived Yan Liang, and turned his horse back to the battle. Yan Liang was about to chase after him, but he had already escaped more than a dozen zhang, and it was too late, so he had to scold angrily: "Incompetent rats, one by one, they are faster than mice!" ”

"Kill me, let Cao Jun's blood flow like a river!" Yan Liang did not chase either, and with a wave of the big knife in his hand, he ordered the whole army to cover up and kill.

Seeing that the main general won three games in a row, the morale of the Yuan army was greatly shaken, the drums shook the heavens and the earth, and more than 20,000 Yuan troops rushed to the Cao army overwhelmingly. Lu Weihuang and Yang Yu on both sides also took the opportunity to assault, and more than 40,000 Yuan troops rushed up, and the dust they trampled on covered the sky and the sun, and the momentum was huge.

Cao Ren waved his army to meet the battle, but due to low morale and a disadvantage in numbers, he couldn't resist it, leaving behind more than 3,000 corpses and retreating in panic. Yuan's army followed the pursuit and took the opportunity to capture the fortifications that Cao Ren had painstakingly managed, and the White Horse defense line collapsed instantly.

Yan Liang left a part of his men and horses to dismantle the fortifications built by Cao Ren, and while chasing after him relentlessly, he chased Cao's army out of more than 20 miles, and killed more than 2,000 Cao soldiers, and chased them straight to the front of Cao Ren's camp. Fortunately, the left-behind general Shi Jian led 3,000 crossbowmen and shot desperately to hold the position, and then killed Yuan's army.

After the battle, the number of people counted, Cao's army suffered more than 5,000 casualties, lost a number of grain and grass, lost one general and several captains, and more importantly, the defense line that Cao Ren spent two months building was destroyed, so that Puyang, the seat of Dongjun, was not in danger to defend, and if Yuan's army drove straight in, it could go straight to the city.

On the one hand, Cao Ren stuck to the camp, divided his troops with 10,000 troops in Xiahoudun, and ordered him to go to Puyang to sit in the town, so as not to prevent Yuan's army from besieging the city. He also sent an envoy to the south, to the Changyuan base camp fifty miles away to ask Cao Cao for help.

After receiving the news of the victory of the White Horse, Yuan Shao finally took out a breath of evil anger in his heart, ordered to reward Yan Liang and his partial generals, reward the three armies, and ordered Yan Liang to take advantage of the situation to pursue, strive to defeat Cao Ren in one go, and then attack the city of Puyang.

Fu Zhu once again issued a strong admonition: "Lord, although Yan Liang is brave, he lacks strategy, is stubborn and self-serving, and is so conceited. It is not easy to break through the White Horse defense line this time, and if you march forward again, you will go deep alone. In the opinion of the grant, send a general or a master to assist ......"

Yuan Shao impatiently interrupted his words: "Yan Liang is my number one general in Hebei, he can be ten at once, how can he be comparable to Cao Ren and Xiahou Dun?" How can you be allowed to despise and slander, demoralize our army, and strengthen the prestige of the Cao family? Besides, I have already sent Lu Weihuang and Yang Yuer to assist, and there will be no mistakes! ”

"Lu Weihuang and Yang Yu are only the talents of a school captain, not enough to assist Yan Liang, please send another general to assist General Yan, or let Yuan Shanggongzi and General Wen Chou march in two ways, echo Yan Liangyao, so that you can be safe!" Ignoring the anger on Yuan Shao's face, he bowed down again.

Yuan Shao's face was gloomy and terrifying, and he said: "Frustrated, you have repeatedly contradicted me, belittled our army, and praised Cao Thief, don't you have two hearts?" When I first entered Jizhou, you made great contributions, so I promoted you, and you should not rely on the old and sell the old! ”

After listening to Yuan Shao's reprimand, he was sweating profusely, and knelt down and said: "Lord, teach one heart to plan for the lord, for fear of failure, how dare you have two hearts!" ”

Yuan Shao snorted coldly, thought for a moment and said: "Since you and I have different opinions and are afraid of the war, it is useless to keep you here, you should immediately return to your hometown in Yecheng to recuperate, and when my staff is short of people, I will send someone to summon you!" ”

Yuan Shao wanted to drive himself to the rhythm, and he couldn't help but burst into tears when he heard it, and kowtowed: "The lord forgives me, the grant is just for fear of failure, and it is by no means afraid of war, please don't misunderstand the sincere heart of the grant!" ”

Yuan Shao's eyes closed slightly, and he said irritably: "Leave quickly, Hugh will make noise in front of me again, if you annoy me, the military stick will wait, Hugh said that I don't miss the old feelings!" ”

Seeing that Yuan Shao's heart was like a rock and insisted on driving him home, he pleaded again: "Since the lord no longer needs to give you advice, please allow me to go to Bingzhou to assist Yuan Maigongzi." He was newly in charge of the state, surrounded by enemies on three sides, the Huns in the west, the black mountain thieves in the east, Xiahou Yuan in Chang'an, and the Liang Ma Teng in the west. And there is no one available under the command of the buyer, and he is young, I am afraid that he will not be able to control such a big stall, so please allow the lord to go to assist! ”

"It's okay, then you can go to Bingzhou to assist Xianyong!" Yuan Shao felt that this was a good arrangement, so he nodded and agreed.

Tian Feng and Fu Zhi both have some skills, but they often make themselves angry, which is really annoying, and it is a pity to discard them. It is good to let them go to the state to assist their sons, not only can they give full play to their talents, but also will not make themselves angry, out of sight and out of mind, it can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone!

"In that case, I'm leaving, please take care!"

Frustrated on his knees, he bowed three times to Yuan Shaoji, who was sitting on it, and said goodbye sincerely.

And Yuan Shao didn't want to look at Fu Zhi anymore, so he waved his hand impatiently: "Go quickly, it's better not to bring up your cowardly strategies when you arrive in Bingzhou, so as not to affect the morale of the army." If you are idle, you can help Xianyong take care of the political affairs of the state! ”

Frustrated, he got up and said goodbye to Feng Ji, Xu You, Chen Zhen, Xun Chen, Chen Lin and other staff: "I will go to merge the state, the battlefield is ever-changing, and I am cheating, after I leave, I hope that you will worry a lot and plan a perfect plan for the lord!" ”

Xu Yu stroked his beard and smiled: "It's okay to go with the public, Liyang has me, and it must be foolproof!" ”

Feng Ji ignored the answer and said: "If there is no one in the army, everyone will turn the same, even if you go, it is our duty to wait for the Lord to bother, don't bother with teaching!" ”

Since everyone didn't want to see him, he had no choice but to shake his head and sigh, step out of the big tent of the Chinese army, take a dozen personal retinues, quietly leave the barracks, and run west to the state.

Changyuan, Cao Jun's camp.

After Cao Cao received Cao Ren's distress letter, he hurriedly convened all his staff to discuss countermeasures: "Yan Liang is brave and brave, Yuan Rang and Gongming are not his opponents, what are your best plans?" ”

Guo Jia came out and said: "Have you forgotten that there is still a tiger in Xuchang's house? ”

Cao Cao frowned, thought for a moment and said, "It seems that we still have to invite Lu Bu to fight!" However, from Xuchang to Baima, it took at least three or two days, and Yan Liang was very anxious to attack Zixiao, so he sent rescue troops all the way to delay the rapid attack of Yuan's army! ”

"Where's Zhongkang?" Cao Cao looked back at the tiger general Xu Chu under his command and asked sharply.

"Xu Chu listens to orders!" Xu Chu, who is eight and a half feet tall and has a strong physique, responded to the voice, and his voice was like a bell.

Cao Cao stroked his beard under his chin and ordered: "You go to the forbidden army to give an order, let him lead his troops to the vicinity of Baimajin to rescue Zixiao and Yuan Rang, you also go with you, and wait for Lu Bu to come to fight Yan Liang." ”

Xu Chu said angrily: "Although the lord is relieved, why do you need a knife to kill chickens, I will meet this Yan Liang, maybe I can take his head!" ”

Cao Cao nodded approvingly: "If this is the best, if you can do without Lu Bu, you won't need Lu Bu!" However, this Yan Liang is the number one fierce general in Hebei, outstanding in martial arts, fierce, and good at using soldiers, Zhongkang must not underestimate the enemy, and the enemy can pass the enemy, but the enemy will help Zixiao to hold on, waiting for Lu Bu to come to help. In the battle of Wancheng, I lost Dian Wei, if you make another mistake, where do I go to find a fierce general who is loyal to me and has great force to protect me? ”

"No!"

Xu Chu surrendered his orders, left Cao Cao's base camp, and came to the army of Yu Ban and Lejin, and conveyed Cao Cao's military orders. The three of them immediately led 20,000 horses to the north and went to the vicinity of Baimajin to support Cao Ren. (To be continued......)
