Chapter 39: The Heroes Meet

Cao Cao was in doubt, and in the sound of hurried footsteps, a scout junior ran into the dense forest like a scud.

"Lord, something is wrong."

The scout colonel knelt on the ground and said quickly: "Our army scouts found out the news this morning, after the Xiliang rebels passed through Xuchang last night, they collected a large number of fishing boats in Shouping Town, crossed Dongping Lake overnight, and went to Fan County. ”

"What?"

Cao Cao was taken aback and asked sharply, "Is this true?" ”

The scout colonel hurriedly said: "There is no lie, the last general has already found out." ”

"Damn, damn it."

Cao Cao waved his arms vigorously, and said unwillingly: "What a cunning recruit, let my 5,000 army wait here for most of the day." Hey, if this thief is not removed, he will become my confidant in the future! ”

Speaking of this, suddenly his face changed again, and he lost his voice: "It's not good, Qiao Mao is in danger!" ”

Cao Ren also changed color and said: "If Qiao Mao is lost, then the Xiliang rebels will no longer have anything to do with the south. Although there are still 8,000 troops of Bao Daren in Juyang, but after Pushui, the Central Plains is a horse Pingchuan, and the Xiliang rebels are all cavalry, and there is no baggage, so they can abandon the official road and go south, at that time, our army wants to block it again, it will be difficult to climb to the sky. ”

Cao Cao choked his wrist and said: "Dongping Avenue is a horse Pingchuan, there is no danger along the way, I thought that Luo Zheng Xiao'er would go south to Yuzhou from here, but I hated Qiao Mao's incompetent, and was led by Luo Zheng'er by the nose, so that my plan could not be successful." ”

Xiahoudun said: "There are Gongsun Zhan and Lord Bao on the north bank of Pushui, and Luo Zheng'er wants to take the trail to cross Pushui to the south, I'm afraid it will not be so easy." It's better to rush to Fan County with a large army, maybe the situation is not bad enough, and there is still a chance. ”

Cao Cao said: "What Yuan Rang said is very true, and that's all. ”

In Fan County, the fire soared into the sky, and the mourning was everywhere.

Qiao Mao was ambushed and defeated, and the Xiliang army took advantage of the situation to seize Fan County and plundered the city.

Last night, they forcibly crossed Dongping Lake and returned to Fan County, 4,000 soldiers only slept for less than an hour, and fought for half a day.

Luo Zheng only slept for less than two hours before he was woken up by Xu Chu.

At this time, it was getting late, and after the soldiers brought cold water, they hurriedly washed their faces, and went to the county hall to convene the military academy to discuss the matter.

Although Qiao Mao was killed and there was not much left of the 8,000 army, the situation was still not to be taken lightly.

Since the Kwantung princes retreated from the Tiger Pass, according to Cao Cao's plan to divide troops and intercept them, the armies of the princes from all walks of life were soon embellished with 4,000 Xiliang cavalry who were burning and killing and looting in Yanzhou, and according to Cao Cao's plan, the middle army guarded the pass and did not fight hard with the Xiliang army, so as not to be broken by each one, and then gather a large army to encircle and suppress it.

If it weren't for Li Meng and Wang Fang leading 3,000 cavalry far away in Xuzhou, Luo Zheng would have led his army to cross the river to the north and enter Jizhou.

In Yanzhou, he circled with various princes, in order to buy time for Li Meng and Wang Fangdi's 3,000 troops to go north.

Fortunately, the Kwantung princes lacked cavalry, and the only cavalry, the 3,000 personal guards of Gongsun Zhandi, was broken by Luo Zheng in Qiaoxian with ironclad chain horses, so although the Kwantung rebels were numerous, they were always unable to block the 4,000 Xiliang iron cavalry.

While munching on steaming donkey meat, Luo Zheng asked, "Where is Cao Cao's army today?" ”

The captain of the scout replied, "We have reached twenty miles south of Fan County, and we can reach it before dark." ”

Luo Zheng asked again, "Where are Yuan Shao, Bao Xin, Gongsun Zhan, and Liu Dai's army?" ”

The captain of the scout replied: "The army of Bao Xin and Sun Gongzan is still on the north bank of Pushui, the army of Yuan Shao is in Snake Hill, and the army of Liu Dai is stationed in Wangcheng, ten miles east of Puyang. ”

Luo Zheng swallowed the last bite of donkey meat, wiped his mouth, and then laughed: "Cao Apu wants to ambush General Ben in Dongping, how can General Ben do what he wants." Presumably, after Cao Apu received that our army killed a horse pistol, he would definitely scold his mother angrily, hahaha! ”

All the military academies also laughed, and they all felt that their hearts were full of joy and excitement.

Although he was proud of Xiliang General School before, he had never fought such a hearty battle.

Since Luo Zheng commanded the army, he has won every battle, and the victory is hearty, how can he not excite the military schools.

A junior colonel said: "General, Cao Cao's army is tired from afar, why not take advantage of the situation to send troops to break it?" ”

Luo Zheng said in a deep voice: "Cao A's tricks are tricky, but it's not comparable to Qiao Mao's waste. Since our army entered Yanzhou and fought with the princes from all walks of life, although Cao Apu suffered a few losses, how could he really beat Cao Apu's fight? ”

"This ......"

Xiao Xiao Xiao scratched his head and was speechless.

Cao Apu is indeed difficult to deal with, and it is not comparable to Qiao Mao and others.

Since committing suicide in Yanzhou, the Xiliang army has also clashed with Cao's army twice. Every time the Xiliang army raided and killed, Cao Cao chose a high place to camp and defend himself, and set up more antlers around the camp, and used heavy vehicles to form a formation to defend himself.

If the Xiliang Iron Cavalry wants to attack strongly, even if they can defeat the Cao army, they will definitely pay a heavy price.

Luo Zheng said coldly: "Keep an eye on General Ben, as soon as Cao Apu's army arrives, he will report immediately." ”

"Yes."

The captain of the scout hurriedly agreed and retreated into the train.

Luo Zheng asked again, "Is there any news about Li Meng and Wang Fang's army?" ”

The captain of the scout had no choice but to get up again and replied, "No news has come yet." ”

The voice fell, and there were scouts outside the hall who rushed in, knelt on the ground and said: "General Qiyu, the villain met the scouts sent by the two generals Li Meng and Wang Fang near Gucheng, and the army of the two generals has passed Ningyang. ”

Luo Zheng immediately perked up and said excitedly: "Okay, send a quick horse to order Li Meng and Wang Fang to lead the army to Cangting before sunset tomorrow, join forces with the general's army, and cross the river to Jizhou." ”

"Yes."

The scout said yes, and immediately got up and retreated.

Luo Zheng shouted: "Where is Chen Tong? ”

Chen Tong hurriedly turned out from behind and said loudly: "What does the general command?" ”

Luo Zheng clenched his fists and clapped his hands lightly, and said: "I order you to take five hundred horsemen to escort Mr. Xun Yu and his wife and children, and rush to Cangting Ferry tonight to cross the river to the north, and collect large and small boats for the army to cross the river, there must be no mistake." ”

"The villain obeys."

Chen Tong hurriedly received the general's order and went to the camp to order troops.

Luo Zheng waved his hand and shouted: "Everyone disperses and prepares, and they will start to go north early tomorrow morning." ”

"Yes."

All the military academies responded in unison and got up to leave.

When the sun was about to set, Cao Cao finally led an army of 5,000 to Fan County.

However, the final result made this peerless hero want to vomit blood in frustration.

Qiao Mao was defeated and disappeared, and even Fan County was lost.

The gate lords of the Dishi clan in the city suffered heavy casualties under the butcher's knife of the Xiliang soldiers, and mourned all over the field.

Cao Cao sent scouts to explore a radius of twenty miles in order to prevent being attacked by the Xiliang army, and at the same time ordered the army to choose a high place to set up camp, so he took Xiahoudun, Cao Ren and other clan generals to Fanxian to personally check the enemy's situation.

The sun is setting, and the sunset is like fire.

Cao Cao, under the escort of more than ten horsemen such as Xiahoudun, Cao Ren, and Cao Hong, stopped at the south gate of Fan County, looked carefully, and saw that on a big banner at the head of the city, the word "Luo" was particularly eye-catching.

"Luo Zheng'er."

When Cao Cao saw the word 'Luo', he immediately gritted his teeth with hatred, and his eyes almost wanted to breathe fire.

Although they had met with Xiliangjun several times before, Luo Zheng and Cao Cao had never met.

Cao Cao's clan was wiped out, only a group of women and children remained, and the old father was also slaughtered by Luo Zheng. The rest of Xiahoudun, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Cao Chun, etc. are also murderous.

"Where is Luo Zheng'er?"

Cao Cao slowly took a few steps forward and shouted loudly.

The Xiliang soldiers in the head of Fan County immediately became agitated, and the scolding was endless.

Not long after, a majestic Xiliang military general ascended to the top of the city, it was Luo Zheng.

"Cao Apu!"

Luo Zheng recognized Cao Cao at a glance and shouted.

Since coming to the troubled times at the end of the Han Dynasty, I have had several confrontations, and today I finally met Cao Cao, a peerless hero, face to face.

Luo Zheng's mood was quite complicated, and he didn't know what kind of mood it was, some were excited, some were hearty, but there was no slightest fear, there was just an indescribable pride, and an inexplicable burning fighting spirit.

is the so-called prince and general, rather there is a kind!

Born in this troubled era, everyone has the power to strive for the upper reaches and compete for the land.

Although Cao Cao is eloquent, he is not a three-headed and six-armed monster, so why can't he be defeated?

Even if there are a hundred battles on the battlefield, how can you regret your death?

Luo Zheng has already died once, so why is he afraid of life and death.

Being able to compete with a peerless hero like Cao Cao on the stage is exciting to think about.

"Luo Zheng Xiaoer!"

Cao Cao gritted his teeth and scolded: "Destroy my clan, kill my old father, this kind of blood feud is not shared, I will definitely devour your child alive, punish your nine clans, dig your ancestral grave, in order to vent the hatred in my heart." ”

Xiahoudun, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Cao Chun and others also shouted and scolded, murderous.

Luo Zheng laughed, "Cao Agui, you are a chaotic minister and thief, you eat the king, but you don't want to serve the country, but instead gather people to rebel against the court, it is simply everyone who gets and is punished, and the national law is intolerable." This general destroyed your clan and punished your father, but he really got rid of the traitor for the country. If you don't repent, this general will punish all those surnamed Cao in the world, so that you will have no sons and grandsons of the Cao family. ”

"Piff, I will not rest with you."

Cao Cao scolded angrily, and his lungs were about to explode.

When Xiahoudun, Cao Ren and others were scolding, they heard a cannon sound, and saw the south gate of Fan County open, and a vote of Xiliang Iron Cavalry surged out, and the first member of the tower-like military generals crossed the sword and rode straight to Cao Cao.

This person is none other than Xu Chu, who is known as a tiger idiot.

Xiahoudun had fought with this person, and knew that Xu Chu's courage was invincible.
