Frustrated and died, for the Great Yuan Sangong died. However, the danger of the Great Yuan Sangong has not passed, the Yuan army is still continuing to rout, and the Cao army is still rushing and killing on the battlefield, looking for the whereabouts of the Great Yuan Sangong. Seeing that the situation was extremely critical, Tao Sheng could only forcibly pull up Da Yuan Sangong, and hurriedly carried Da Yuan Sangong onto the war horse, Da Yuan Sangong did not struggle, but cried bitterly on the war horse, just regretted that he did not listen to the advice of frustration, and also hated some of his previous actions.

Helping Da Yuan Sangong onto the horse, Tao Sheng grabbed a guard casually, and pointed to the clothes and armor that Da Yuan Sangong had just taken off, "You, put on the clothes and armor of the lord!" Hurry, right away! ”

The guard who was caught by Tao Sheng didn't say a word, but quickly put on the conspicuous golden helmet and gold armor of the Great Yuan Sangong, and then put on the big red brocade robe, Tao Sheng quickly divided the guard team into two, personally led a team, and instructed the other team: "I protect the lord to break through to the west, you protect the fake lord to break through to the east, and when you meet our team on the way, call them to come over to protect the lord and attract the attention of the Cao thief team, please, brothers." ”

No one refused Tao Sheng's order to send him to death, and the guards responsible for protecting the fake Yuan Shao's breakthrough just saluted to the Great Yuan Sangong, and then surrounded the fake Yuan Shao and immediately went west to kill, and the Great Yuan Sangong also came to his senses at this time, and hurriedly shouted: "Soldiers, don't worry, as long as I can return to Jizhou alive, your parents and family, I will raise them for a lifetime!" ”

After changing into the clothes of ordinary soldiers, the resistance encountered by Da Yuan Sangong when he broke through was really much smaller, even if he encountered a large force of Cao Jun when breaking through, Cao Jun's team was not very interested in the more than 20 horsemen around Da Yuan Sangong, but sent a small team to come up to slash and snatch war horses, Tao Sheng and other guards also had the opportunity to protect Da Yuan Sangong and fight and retreat, and fled in the dark place with few people, no longer going there as before to be chased and intercepted by a large force of Cao Jun, and the hope of escape increased greatly.

At this time, the fake Yuan Shao also successfully attracted the attention of the Cao army's team, in the melee under the dark night, I saw the golden helmet brocade robe worn by the fake Yuan Shao, the remnants of the Yuan army were defeated and moved closer to the fake Yuan Shao team, not to mention, Cao Jun also pounced like a fly smelling blood, and kept shouting that Yuan Shao was here, seducing more Cao Jun tigers, leopards and jackals to rush to the east, to fight for the miracle of capturing the Great Yuan Sangong, the real Great Yuan Sangong took the opportunity to desperately escape in the opposite direction, and soon disappeared into the depths of the night, finally escaped from the fierce battle battlefield with the most soldiers and horses of the Cao army.

Da Yuan Sangong was embarrassed and ran away with mud and blood, running away with tears, suffering the leaderless Yuan army soldiers, and even more suffering the fake Yuan Shao wearing his clothes and armor, the Cao army team shouted and shook the sky, and all the departments rushed to kill like dragons, slashing guns and picking axes, frantically harvesting the surnames of the Yuan army soldiers, Yuan Shao's army was so defeated that it could no longer be defeated, and the whole army was running away with their heads and rats, running away, like a group of panicked rabbits, being ruthlessly chased by wolves, the corpses were almost all over the battlefield, blood flowed down the ditch, floating up the remnants of the flag and broken guns, When you step on it, you immediately splattered with blood.

After being chased and intercepted by no less than ten Cao army teams, it was estimated that the Great Yuan Sangong had successfully escaped from the battlefield, and the guard surnamed Suo, who pretended to be Yuan Shao, stopped, and fought bloodily with his companions and the Yuan soldiers who did not know the truth, desperately fighting for more escapes for the Great Yuan Sangong, but the Cao army team rushed too fiercely, in less than ten minutes, the team around the fake Yuan Shao was rushed to pieces, and the fake Yuan Shao himself was also surrounded by countless elated Cao soldiers, and the fake Yuan Shao wanted to kill himself. But he was pulled by the last companion beside him, and said in a low voice: "Surrender, buy more time for the lord." ”

Listening to the advice of his companions, the fake Yuan Shao decisively threw down the weapons in his hands with his companions, raised his hands and surrendered, the Cao soldiers roared excitedly, and hurriedly rushed up, holding down the fake Yuan Shao and the last guard, and tied them with ropes as if they were tying zongzi, and then cheered and escorted the fake Yuan Shao to the position of Cao Boss's handsome banner, and heard the news that the big Yuan Sangong was captured alive, and the Cao army was even more demoralized, and the slashing was even more fierce, but when the fake Yuan Shao was covered in blood and was escorted to the young friend of the big Yuan Sangong, Cao Lao, Cao Jun was dumbfounded again and again.

"Who are you?" After working hard to catch a fake Yuan Shao, Boss Cao, who had also been killed covered in blood, was not angry, but asked the fake Yuan Shao and his companions lightly: "Where did Yuan Shao go?" Say it, and I'll spare you both from dying. ”

"Phew!" The fake Yuan Shao's companion spat heavily on a mouthful of bloody saliva.

"Phew!" The fake Yuan Shao directly spit out the bloody thick phlegm on Boss Cao.

"Piff! Look for death! ”

Xiahou Yuan, who was already full of anger next to him, was furious, pulled out a knife and slashed him to death, hacking the fake Yuan Shao and his companions to death, the two of them fell to the ground, and they didn't say a word until they died, and Boss Cao didn't blame Xiahou Yuan for being impulsive, but just sighed: "Hebei Duoyishi, two pawns, can be so loyal, if Yuan Shao can make good use of it, Wu'an dares to peep into Hebei's half eye?" Can you have the victory you have today? ”

After sighing, Boss Cao pulled out the Heavenly Annihilation Sword again, pointed to the north with the sword, and shouted: "Order the whole army, enter the Yuan army camp, encounter the Yuan army's team, no matter who it is, kill!" ”

The surrounding Cao soldiers agreed together, the war drums beat wildly, the heralds rushed to give orders, Cao Lao's handsome flag fluttered in the wind, and more than 30,000 Cao soldiers were like a rainbow, following Cao Lao's handsome banner to charge north, like a wild float, sweeping away the living beings.

Half an hour later, the Cao army team met the slow Yuan army Cen Bi team, it only took less than ten minutes, the unstoppable Cao army team broke Cen Bi's team, the Yuan army soldiers brought by Cen Bi were cut down in pieces, and thousands of Yuan soldiers were harvested like cutting melons and vegetables, and the Cen Bi team collapsed and began to retreat towards the big camp.

After more than a quarter of an hour, Cen Bi's defeated army and the main force of the Cao army led by Cao Boss encountered the team led by Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang brothers, seeing that the main force rushed to reinforcements, Zhang Liao and Cao Hong's team, which was attacking the Yuan brothers, was thunderous and morale, and the team of the Yuan brothers was frightened, and was disrupted by Cen Bi's defeated army, and was forced to flee in the direction of the camp.

It was also at this time that Cao Lao Da sent Le Jin and Li Dian's two generals, and explained to Ji Yi in person: "Yuan Shao personally led the elite soldiers to attack Xuchang, and he must arrange ambushes on both wings of the camp to prevent our army from taking the opportunity to attack the camp. Li Dian and Le Jin hugged their fists and sang a promise, and hurriedly took the order to lead the army to attack.

More than halfway through the fifth watch, the Cao army expelled the defeated soldiers of the Yuan army to the front of the Yuan army camp, and the panicked Yuan Tan and Guo Tu and others opened the camp gate to let the defeated soldiers return to the camp, while strengthening the camp guards, and at the same time ordered the ambush soldiers on both wings to kill, delaying the attack speed of the Cao army. However, the defeated soldiers of the Yuan army were too many, the narrow camp gate did not allow so many soldiers to pass through quickly, and the front of the large camp was quickly crowded by the defeated soldiers, trampling on each other, the dead were full of roads, and the defeated soldiers who were chased and killed by the Cao army were desperate in order to survive, and had to flee to both sides of the camp gate full of trenches and antlers to resist horses, trying to escape over the fence, but not only did they fight the vanguard for the Cao army for free, filled the trench with corpses, and used their bodies and weapons to break down the camp fortifications such as the antlers and horses, but also made the defenders in the camp unable to release arrows to stop the Cao army from charging.

"Kill!" The four Yuan army ambushes on both flanks of the camp finally came out and outflanked the two wings of the Cao army, but the Cao army team had already prepared, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Xiahou Yuan, Zhang Liao and Zhang He The four teams stepped forward and struggled to block the four Yuan army ambushes, Li Dian and Le Jin's two teams also killed from behind, and the Yuan army ambush soldiers, who were already frightened, also suddenly collapsed psychologically, completely forgetting that their own army was waiting for work at ease and taking advantage of physical strength, but they were scattered one by one in a moment, and Han Meng and Han Ding's second generals were also beheaded by Zhang Liao and Xiahou Yuan on the battlefield, The team completely collapsed and began to flee for their lives towards the camp.

With a loud bang, the tall Yuan army was crushed by their own defeated soldiers, and the Yuan army archers on the arrow tower screamed and fell into the defeated soldiers with the gate, crushing and crushing countless Yuan soldiers, and these archers never had a chance to get up and run for their lives, and were immediately trampled into meat sauce by countless human feet and horses' hooves. A large area of the fence was uprooted by the defeated soldiers, and countless defeated soldiers of the Yuan army and soldiers of the Cao army swarmed in, fleeing and killing to the depths of the Yuan army's camp. Seeing that Cao's army flocked into the camp, the soldiers of the Yuan army on the rest of the wall section also began to collapse rapidly, and fled to the rear of the camp one after another, and the hard-built frontal fortifications became completely furnishings.

At the critical moment, just like what Fu Yu commented when he was dying, Yuan Tan Gongzi, who was not useless, also organized a group of troops to intercept it, trying to drive the Cao army out of the camp, but the first thing they faced was thousands of frightened defeated soldiers, and the neat team was quickly washed away. It was also at this time that Yuan Tan Gongzi finally really understood a sentence, and understood the sentence that the army was defeated like a mountain.

Under the impact of these defeated soldiers, the interception efforts of Yuan Tan Gongzi and all the generals of the Yuan army who had not lost their confidence became a waste of strength, and the defeated troops of the Yuan army, who were panicked to the extreme, overwhelmed all their own teams in front of them, and the Cao army team that followed took the opportunity to kill, set fire everywhere, one after another military tents were ignited by the flames, one after another the camp fortifications were flooded by the defeated soldiers, the campfires were trampled on, the baggage vehicles were overturned, the camp tents were torn down, people trampled on people, people pressed people, and more Yuan army teams fell into collapse. More Yuan soldiers joined the fleeing team, and the Yuan army camp was completely chaotic, with raging fires everywhere and fleeing soldiers everywhere, and it was a foregone conclusion that the loss of the army was lost.

Yuan Tan and some generals of the Yuan army did not want to give up, and after hurriedly organizing some soldiers and horses, they chose to line up in the middle of the camp to intercept on the most open terrain of the military academy, and did not hesitate to order the soldiers to shoot arrows at their own defeated soldiers who tried to rush to the team, and finally encountered the main force of the Cao army that was killed head-on, but Yuan Tan and other generals quickly found in despair that the soldiers in the self-army team had already softened their hands and feet in the face of the despair of the fiasco, panicked, and the Cao army team only used one charge, and the Yuan army interception formation was smashed to pieces. Killed the panicked Yuan soldiers to the ground.

What made Yuan Tan and other Yuan army generals even more frightened was the indomitable murderous spirit on the Cao army soldiers, after repeated fierce battles, most of these Cao army soldiers were already wounded, covered with blood, and they were all exhausted, gasping for breath, but after encountering the Yuan soldiers, these Cao soldiers who were so tired that they couldn't even lift their arms were like hundreds of chicken blood, roaring and shouting like crazy and fighting with the Yuan soldiers, one knife slashed harder than the other, and one shot stabbed fiercer than the other. Even in the face of the weapons stabbed and cut by the soldiers of the Yuan army, they did not dodge, but struggled to fight back at the enemy with the weapons in their hands, and even if they died, they would pull the enemy on the opposite side to die together. In the face of such a crazy enemy, not to mention that the legs of the Yuan soldiers trembled, even Yuan Tan and other Yuan army generals also had cold vests.

The interception team also quickly began to collapse, although Yuan Tan and other generals tried their best to restrain the team, but they said that they could not stop the soldiers from fleeing one after another, and they could not stop the Cao army soldiers from constantly advancing and advancing, and when Dian Wei, who was carrying a double halberd, also led the army to rush, the team around Yuan Tan collapsed faster, and Dian Wei, whose face was already splashed with blood, had the same hell demon god, and went crazy to a tiger, rampage in the Yuan army's ranks, invincible, and several Yuan army generals tried to step forward to intercept, They were all cut off their horses by him with a halberd, Yuan Jun was horrified, and they turned around and fled for their lives, and Yuan Tan Gongzi still rushed to the front.

The camp of the Yuan army is broken, completely broken, the Cao army team is divided into many ways, rushing back and forth in the Yuan army camp, such as entering no man's land, everywhere you go, there is a sea of fire and blood, the desperate Yuan army soldiers in order to survive, scrambling to just flee to the back camp, the Yuan army team of the rear camp opened the camp gate early, the first to flee to the north of the wilderness, the Cao army team continued to advance, turning more Yuan army camps into a sea of fire and blood, the Yuan army departments rushed to abandon the baggage camp tent, and fled to the north for their lives, the fire in the camp was fierce, and the corpses were all over the ground, Boss Cao himself did not give up, and continued to order the army to pursue, saying that he would drive out the Yuan army's troops.

Cao Boss also has no way, although this battle is a great victory, and he also took advantage of the situation to break through the main camp of the Yuan army, but after the main camp of the Yuan army, there are still four Yuan army villages, as well as the team arranged by the Yuan army in Yanling to protect the granary, and at the same time, the whereabouts of the big Yuan Sangong himself are unknown, if the Cao army can't completely defeat the Yuan army in one go, as long as Yuan Shaojun eases up, he can still pose a huge threat to the Cao army, so although he knows that the team is exhausted to the extreme, the casualties of the team are also expanding rapidly, But Boss Cao still did not hesitate to order the pursuit, not for anything else, just to not give Yuan Shaojun on the battlefield of Xuchang a chance to make a comeback.

In the face of the crazy pursuit of the main force of the Cao army, although the defeated soldiers of the Yuan army are still roughly equal to the chasing soldiers of the Cao army in terms of strength, including the interim commander Yuan Tan, they have no courage to stop and fight to the death with the Cao army, up and down are desperately fleeing north, the Cao army is like a wild dragon, driving straight forward, shouting to kill the sky, the axe continues to rise and fall, the soldiers of the Yuan army continue to fall to the ground, the road is full of corpses of Yuan soldiers and horses, blood flows all over the ground, and the blood-colored road is soon several miles long, And it continues to expand rapidly to the north.

As the sky grew brighter, countless exhausted Yuan soldiers gave up fleeing and knelt on the ground and shouted surrender, but the even more exhausted Cao army refused to accept the prisoners at all.

Every time he encounters a battle with the team of the Great Yuan Sangong, Cao Boss's luck is always surprisingly good, originally Cao Boss was also very worried that the four Yuan Army Villages would be difficult to break, but in the face of the impact of tens of thousands of their own defeated soldiers, the first Yuan Army Fortress was completely crushed in less than half an hour, and the Yuan Army team guarding the Farewell Village also joined the fleeing team. The second Yuan army village, after receiving the news of the defeat of the main force, simply did not wait for the defeated soldiers to rush to the front, the defender Wang Mo had already led the army to abandon the camp and left, the third village was the same, until the fourth farewell village close to the Yanling city, the Cao army team encountered the stubborn resistance of the defenders, and because there was a safer Yanling city next to it, the defeated soldiers of the Yuan army no longer played the vanguard for the Cao army for free, and almost all chose to bypass the camp and flee directly to Yanling City. Cao's army, which had severely reduced its physical strength, also had to rely on its own strength to attack the last partial division camp of Yuan Shaojun, whose work was almost intact.

Cao Boss, who has always liked to fight other people's grain and grass ideas, once spent his efforts to study Yuan Shaojun in this area of Yanling, knew that the Yuan army commander who guarded the granary of Yanling would be the eldest son of Fu Zhu, and also knew that the guard general who guarded Yuan Jun's last partial division camp was surnamed Hao Mingzhao, the word Bodao, and a native of Taiyuan, a young general who came to Yanzhou to participate in the war with Shi Gaogan, who was a young general who came to Yanzhou to participate in the war with the Zhou Assassin Shi Gaogan. He was arranged by the Great Yuan Sangong to lead the army to be stationed here to protect the Yanling granary.

In the face of such a young general, Boss Cao didn't take Hao Zhao in his eyes at first, but after launching the camp attack, Boss Cao immediately found that he underestimated this Hao Zhao too much, this guy simply built the camp he was responsible for into a thorny turtle shell, there were three trenches, and temporary fortifications such as antlers and horses were built very strongly, Cao Jun couldn't get close to the fence twice, but was shot by the archers arranged by this guy and suffered heavy casualties, and forcibly attacked the Cao soldiers in front of the gate of the camp of the other village. It was even more because the Faliang Bridge built by this guy suddenly overturned on its side and fell into the trench one after another, and was buried in the trench with sharp wooden stakes tied into strings of human flesh candy gourds, and died a miserable death.

Seeing this scene, Boss Cao, whose physical strength had dropped to a critical point, immediately made a decision and immediately ordered the troops to be withdrawn and no longer attack this turtle shell full of thorns. Seeing that the Cao army was gathering the team and preparing to collect the troops, the young and vigorous Hao Zhao originally wanted to lead the army to attack, but Cui Yan, who had fled here not long ago, grabbed Hao Zhao and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, let the Cao thief team rest for a while, the Cao thief's morale is not exhausted at this time, and it is difficult to win now when he rushes out, and when the Cao thief team begins to retreat, the morale is exhausted, and the body feels physically exhausted after relaxing, and then attack, it will win a big victory." ”

Unfortunately, after Cui Yan's crow began to retreat, the soldiers of the Cao Army, whose morale had been in a high state, relaxed a little, and immediately found that they were so tired that they couldn't even walk, and the large and small wounds on their bodies also began to suffer from severe pain, and the moaning in the team continued, after seeing this at the height of the arrow tower, Cui Yan also decisively rushed down and shouted: "General Bodao, you can attack and avenge our fallen soldiers!" ”

The war drums sounded, Hao Zhao led three thousand infantry out of the camp, roaring and killing ten times his own Cao army, once thought that Hao Zhao did not dare to pursue Cao Lao was furious, and decisively sent Li Dian to lead the army to meet the attack, although Li Dian's team, which was already tired of leg cramps, also followed the order, but said that nothing could stop the impact of Hao Zhaosheng's army, in the melee, Hao Zhao also stabbed Li Dian with a shot, Li Dian's team collapsed immediately after being shocked, Cao Lao Da was shocked and angry when he heard the news, and quickly ordered the army to stop, turned back to face Hao Zhao's 3,000 daring infantry team.

The unlucky Cao Boss soon regretted that he did not order the army to flee immediately, in the battle, Hao Zhao's 3,000 raw troops relied on their physical strength, almost pressing more than 30,000 Cao army to fight, Hao Zhao himself was in conflict in the 10,000 horse army, such as entering no man's land, if it were not for Dian Wei, Zhang Liao and Zhang He and other generals to fight hard, Hao Zhao almost rushed to Cao Boss, but even so, even if the Cao army generals who were almost exhausted of physical strength finally retreated Hao Zhao's team, almost all of them were wounded, Nearly 2,000 Cao soldiers who had killed the enemy last night and made countless contributions fell on the road to victory.

discovered the weakness of Cao's army's physical strength was almost exhausted, not only Hao Zhao rotated three thousand new forces to kill again, but Frustrated Hu also led a new force to kill the granary, Cao Boss did not dare to fight again this time, commanded the army to retreat to the south, fortunately, Cao Boss's brother-in-law Ren Jun also led a new force to arrive in time to catch the chasing troops of Frustrated Hu and Hao Zhao, which covered the safe retreat of the main force. But even so, the exhausted main force of the Cao army still spent most of the day to withdraw to Xuchang City, which was more than 40 miles away, and countless soldiers still lay on the ground as soon as they entered the city, and they were lying crookedly all over the streets of Xuchang City.

"Both lose, lose!"

A day later, when the casualties of the battle were counted, Cao Boss couldn't help but wail loudly, it was a battle, although Cao Boss's team defeated Yuan Shaojun's team, broke through and completely destroyed the main camp of Yuan's army and the camp of the three partial divisions, but after a series of hard battles, the losses of Cao's army team still reached a shocking point, the general Li Dian was killed, Dian Wei, Xiahou Yuan, Zhang Liao and Zhang He and other main generals were all wounded, and the dead soldiers reached more than 14,000 people who stunned Cao Laoda, and most of the remaining soldiers were also wounded, More than 3,000 soldiers were seriously injured and lost their combat effectiveness, and the overall strength of Cao's army was also weakened to an extremely dangerous point.

"Fortunately, Yuan Shao's team suffered greater casualties than mine, and they definitely don't have the strength to fight again." Faced with huge casualties and dangerous situations, Boss Cao could only quietly comfort himself: "On the side of Xiliang Ma Teng, it doesn't matter if Zhong Miao and Pei Mao lose Chang'an, as long as they hold Tongguan, our army can gain time to rest." As for Liu Biao, Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu in Jingzhou, even if these wall grasses take the northern part of Nanyang, they may not have the courage to continue to attack Xuchang, even if they kill Xuchang, our army has a city to defend, and there is no need to be afraid of these rabble in Jizhou. ”

"Tao Ying ......." Self-comforting here, Boss Cao is a little worried no matter how optimistic he is, and he doesn't dare to comfort himself, he only dares to pray secretly, "God bless, I hope this thief is right to bet again, he is not ready to attack Xuchang, he needs to temporarily transfer troops and mobilize grain and grass to have the strength to attack Xuchang, give me a little more time, and give my army a little more time." ”

Suddenly, Boss Cao suddenly hoped that Che Zhou's original report was correct, and Deputy Director Tao was indeed seriously injured by the stray arrows of Che Zhou's team during the attack on Wuyan.
