Just when Guan Yu was in a hurry to Luoyang, Cao Cao's army was rectified in the Tiger Prison Pass, and soon sent troops to Luoyang, Cao Cao in the general Cao Hong, Xiahou Yuan, Yu Ban, Zhang Ji, Zhang Xiu, Zang Ba, Cao Xiu, Cao Chun's escort army of 100,000 to attack Luoyang, in Cao Cao's view, this battle is not trivial, it can also be said that this is Cao Cao's third attack on Luoyang, for him this battle is not successful that is to become benevolent, although he is strong but several times the war has not been delayed, if this time fails, The blow to him was undoubtedly fatal! Therefore, Cao Cao attached great importance to this battle, and before attacking Luoyang, he also deliberately transferred a fierce general of the clan from Yanzhou - Cao Chun, this time Cao Cao moved out of his own house as much as possible, so as to be in an advantageous position in this battle!

Although he moved out of all his family, Cao Cao still felt a little bottomless in his heart, after all, his two most powerful front Zhengyin vanguard officers were unable to participate, if these two people could go into battle with him, he would be much more down-to-earth, although there were so many generals at the moment, but it still made him feel insecure, although so Cao Cao had to do this now, but after thinking about it, there was no Guan Yu in the direction of Luoyang, and the resistance would be much smaller, so it was inferred that Cao Cao would be a little more confident

Cao Cao and the generals came to Luoyang City, the news soon spread to Luoyang, Luoyang generals were all frightened after hearing it, the most anxious is the Si Li Lieutenant Wen hired, he as the chief officer of Luoyang has the responsibility and obligation to protect the safety of Luoyang, now the enemy soldiers are in the city, Luoyang is in danger, he must take on this heavy responsibility, Zhang Fei lost the Tiger Prison Pass to help him This is an extra thing, without the Prime Minister's order he did not dare to rashly send troops, and this time is different, the defense of Luoyang is his business. He must assume this responsibility and obligation, if something goes wrong, the prime minister will first ask him, as a senior general for many times, he must achieve a change in power, this understanding is still there.

As the commander of Luoyang's defense, Wen Ping immediately convened an emergency military meeting with the generals Cui Lie, the captain of the city gate, Wang Qi, the captain of Changshui, Xu Huang, the captain of Xiaocai, and Ma Chao, the captain of the military academy. Fubo General Zhang He was summoned together again, and Wen Ping first informed the generals of the military situation, and Wen Ping said to everyone: "The matter is dangerous!" When Luoyang is in the autumn of life and death, the prime minister has not returned to the west, we should take on the important task of guarding Luoyang, Cao Cao's soldiers are ready to send troops to Luoyang, Cao Cao is determined to seize Luoyang, we should not be underestimated, Cao Cao is a great character. It is a strong enemy, we must unite to defeat the enemy to ensure that Luoyang is foolproof, the generals as generals have the responsibility to defend the land, I hope you can start from the overall situation, unite and fight to the death with Cao Cao, if not, Luoyang is lost, the prime minister blames us for not being able to eat and walk! ”

After Wen Ping finished speaking, he saw that several generals present were still looking at each other, and Wen Ping saw that everyone still had concerns, so he said: "I am willing to go out of the city with my Wen Ping to kill the enemy and stand up!" Wen Ping immediately stood up after speaking. Seeing this, Xu Huang immediately stood up, and Ma Chao immediately stood up. Zhang He also stood up, but only Cui Lie, the captain of the city gate, and Wang Qi, the captain of Changshui, did not stand up.

Cui Lie said to everyone: "Everyone, I am very much the captain of the city gate and Fengche, in view of the limitations of my duties, I have a heavy responsibility, and I can't fight the enemy outside the city with you!" ”

"I'm the same as General Cui, so let's take care of the defense of Luoyang City, and a few of you are responsible for the outside of the city, and we should work together to defend against the enemy!" Changshui Captain Wang Qi said.

At that moment, he saw a man striding in from outside. Everyone regarded it as the Tai Lieutenant Zhu Jun, Zhu Jun's arrival really surprised the generals present, Zhu Jun came to the crowd and shouted: "The matter is so urgent, why don't you inform me of such an important military meeting, don't forget that I am still a Tai Lieutenant, and I can still restrain you." Why do you want to put me in the air? ”

Seeing that Zhu Jun was angry, Wen Ping hurriedly explained: "The matter is urgent, Lord Zhu is old and has such a difficult battle, I am not embarrassed to disturb!" ”

"Wenpin, you are getting more and more disagreeable! Can Lian Po still be able to eat? Although I am old and noble enough to fight, besides, you have to discuss with me why you have a meeting! Now Luoyang, I am the biggest military commander, do you understand that you are overstepping? Zhu Jun criticized Wen Ping.

Wen Ping hurriedly apologized: "Lord Taiwei is angry, this matter is my fault, I know that it is a military emergency, so I forgot the rules and hope that my lord will atone for his sins!" ”

"If it weren't for the military emergency, I wouldn't be done with you, so I won't bother with you this time, by the way, how did you decide to hold a meeting?" Zhu Jun then asked.

Wen Ping then made a report to Zhu Jun about the decision to leave, and Zhu Jun said: "It's not bad for you to settle down like this, it's a little inappropriate for the old man to take out the army to build an account, I'll still give you a logistics support, but I have to go out of the city with you to meet Cao Cao in the coming day, I haven't seen him for so many years, I have to talk to him!" ”

"Everything is at the mercy of your lordship!" Wen Ping arched his hand.

Zhu Jun smiled and said, "General Wen is really interesting!" I criticized you in anger, now the military situation is urgent, the old man can't send troops to build accounts, he can only watch the enemy's formation, so the battle ahead is still by your Wenpin General as the commander, such a big battle must have a leader, I don't know if the generals agree? Zhu Jun said and looked around at the other generals.

The rest of the generals were not as good as the civil servants in terms of qualifications and ranks, so they naturally expressed their approval, and in this way, Luoyang also formed a unified will

Zhu Jun and Wen Ping decided to divide 50,000 troops from Luoyang to meet Cao Cao, the two sides set up a position at the boundary of 50 miles outside Luoyang City, this time both sides invested a lot of troops, it can be said that it is a considerable scale of battle, of course, it also means a decisive battle for both sides, so both sides dare not despise each other, both sides have no bottom in their hearts this time, why do you say that, Cao Cao has no bottom in his heart because his right hand is not around, and the generals in Luoyang have no bottom in their hearts because there is no boss to lead such a big battle. However, Wen Ping knew in his heart that his mission was to lead the generals to drag the enemy as much as possible, as for victory, it was extravagant, as long as he could buy enough time for Guan Yu to come back, this was the biggest victory for him, unlike Wen Ping, Cao Cao had to win!

As soon as the two sides opened the formation, they saw the entire Luoyang City outside the banner swaying, swords and guns, and then looking at Cao Cao's army The armor is bright, and the big book under the door is a big Cao character. Flags of various colors fluttered on both sides, the sergeants on the side of Luoyang were also high-spirited, Zhu Jun began to talk to Cao Cao before going out of the battle surrounded by the generals, the two commanders met on the battlefield again, and the difference was that this time the two met as opponents, Zhu Jun first said Cao Cao: "Is the opposite side General Cao Cao Cao?" Forgive me for having armor on my body, and I can't bow down and give full prostration. Immediately bow down and look at Meng Dehaihan! ”

Cao Cao carefully looked at the veteran in front of him, who was older than himself, but saw that this life had a red face and a broad forehead, three wisps of beard, two big brush eyebrows, eyes like stars, wearing gold armor and red robes, and a yellow-maned horse under his crotch. At that time, Cao Cao also carried out the work of conquest of the Yellow Turban under his leadership, but he didn't expect to meet in front of the battle today, and Cao Cao immediately returned the salute and said: "It turned out to be Brother Zhu!" Have you been okay all these years? ”

"I am now the third prince in charge of the position of captain, a very human minister! O Mengde! I think we discussed the yellow scarf together back then, and I still remember it vividly! More than ten years have passed, I am old, and you are not confused, I didn't expect you and I to see you here today! Zhu Jun continued.

Cao Cao continued to return the salute and said, "Dude! We are the people of the army to protect the court, but now we have become chess opponents, what a trick! ”

"Mengde, you are a person who understands. Today, under the leadership of Prime Minister Guan Cheng, the imperial court is thriving in various undertakings, and all kinds of waste are waiting to be revived. The prime minister is reforming under his rule, but you are going against the heavens and raising unrighteous soldiers, why is this? Zhu Jun asked Cao Cao majestically.

Cao Cao sneered when he heard this and replied, "Brother Tai's words are wrong! You and I know best who Guan Yu is, but he once followed Dong Thief and killed Dong Thief to seize military power and then control the imperial court, what is he? It is a true thief of the country, and I will raise up an army against this unrighteous man! How can I say I'm an unrighteous soldier? ”

"Mengde, don't be obsessed anymore, it's not too late to turn back. Why should you have trouble with the court? Your current behavior is a rebellion, why do you want to do such an undesirable thing after your Cao family has been loyal and good for generations? How will I enter the ancestral grave of the Cao family in the future? Zhu Jun continued to persuade.

Cao Cao was furious when he heard this: "Zhu Gong's words are very wrong, I raised the righteous army to save the Han family and turn the tide to eradicate the traitors, and it is you Zhu Gong who should turn back." You see that now our soldiers are coming to the city and are about to go to the edge of the trench, Luoyang is in danger, but you are still obsessed with doing useless resistance, I will not embarrass you in our former friendship, if you are interested, you will obediently get out of the way, so as not to provoke the fire, if not, you will be trampled into powder! ”

When Zhu Jun heard this, he was also furious and said: "Cao Mengde's anti-thief cultivation is rampant!" ”

Cao Cao did not answer and instructed his general Cao Hong to go out of front of the battle, Cao Hong had to order the horse to shake the gun and rush out of the front of the formation, Zhu Jun fixed his eyes to see Cao Cao's camp suddenly killed a general, but saw that the five big and three thick in this life are very strong, wearing a red robe and shoulders wearing bright armor, and a big steel gun in the palm of a big black horse in the crotch, it is really majestic like a god, Zhu Jun saw it secretly surprised, Cao Hong jumped his horse and went out of the battle to take Zhu Jun, Zhu Jun was too old to be able to fight, so he called: "Who can fight?" ”

Before he finished speaking, he saw a general next to him shouting: "I'll descend on him!" "It is the Fubo general Zhang Heye, Zhang He is 25 years old, which is the age of blood and strength, and he is very enthusiastic about this kind of challenge in front of the battle, but he saw a big iron spear in the palm of his crotch, and a white robe and plain armor bright horse silver gun! With the majesty of a hundred steps in front of him and behind him, Cao Cao couldn't help but be secretly surprised when he saw Zhang He being such a hero, thinking that Guan Yu's subordinates were really not lacking in good generals!

Cao Hong saw that Zhang He was a young man like himself before he came out of the battle, so he asked: "Who is coming, who will report his name to fight again!" ”

"Fubo General Zhang He is also! Who are you? Zhang He asked Cao Hongdao.

Cao Hong then said: "General Cao Hong is also!" After that, he urged him to come to fight Zhang He immediately, and Zhang He also danced a steel gun to fight with Cao Hong

Zhang He caught Cao Hong and the two of them fought more than 30 times in a row, the drums on both sides were earth-shattering, and the shouts of the soldiers were one after another. Zhang He's pair of steel guns makes it a magic trick to constantly fly, Cao Hong is not to be outdone, the golden gun catches Zhang He's desperate resistance, a pair of marksmanship is even more incisive, in and out have a unique routine, sometimes like a strange python turning over, sometimes like a dragon crossing the river. Both of them are skilled in marksmanship, and it is difficult to solve for a while.

The two fought to 50 and still won or lost, and the fight between the two also entered a stalemate, the two war horses kept roaring, Zhang He became more and more courageous and his spirit doubled. This gun makes it a whirring wind, Cao Hong's energy is not reduced, this big gun catches Zhang He and fights hard, the marksmanship is not chaotic and the strength is not reduced, Cao Cao saw Zhang He so brave, afraid that Cao Hong would lose, and hurriedly Mingjin withdrew his troops, Cao Hong hit the anhydride, and heard that his camp suddenly Mingjin withdraws his troops. This is equivalent to giving him an order, Cao Hong is a little unsatisfied, but he has to obey the order.

Cao Hong sold a flaw, turned the horse back to the team, saw Cao Cao and asked, "Why did the lord want to Mingjin to withdraw his troops?" ”

Cao Cao replied: "Zhang He's courage is by no means a force that can win, I am afraid that you will lose!" ”

"Huh!" Cao Hong sighed indignantly, he was not angry!

Cao Cao didn't take advantage of this formation, and then the second battle began again, and Zhang He was still shouting in front of the formation, and his majesty was undiminished. Cao Hong was about to fight, but at this moment, he saw a general rushing out of the front of the battle. Seeing it as Xiahou Yuan, he saw Xiahou Yuan's golden helmet and golden armor, wearing a big red robe, holding a tiger-headed golden gun weighing more than 70 catties, and immediately grabbed the horse and came out, Zhang He looked at it fixedly. But I saw that this Xiahou Yuan had a wide mouth, his eyes bulging outward, his face was blue, purple, and green, and his whole face was a watermelon skin, and he was born with a tiger's back and a wolf's waist, which was very strong. After weighing this figure again, the figure was eight feet five inches off the horse, and the big knife in his hand was even more eye-catching, shining with a cold light, which made people shudder when they saw it, Zhang He strangled the war horse and asked: "Who is here!" ”

"General Xiahou Yuan is also!" Xiahou Yuan said.

As soon as Zhang He heard the three names of "Xiahou Yuan", he knew that this was the general who fought against Yan Liang during the Liyang War! was later defeated by Yan Liang, but Xiahou Yuan's name resounded like thunder in the camp! The skill of being able to fight with Yan Liang for 50 years should be good, Zhang He knows that Yan Liang is powerful, as one of the four court pillars in Hebei, there is still a gap between himself and Yan Liang, so this Xiahou Yuan is definitely not an idle person!

"I am the general Xiahou Yuan! I'm here to take your head! Xiahou Yuan waved the golden gun to Zhang He while killing, Zhang He slapped the horse and danced the gun to meet Xiahou Yuan, the two horses intersected and the two big guns immediately sparked, Xiahou Yuan's golden gun weighed 70 pounds plus his own strength was hundreds of pounds, and Zhang He's arms were numb for a while, Zhang He secretly felt: The kid is really powerful! Xiahou Yuan's golden gun swing kept attacking Zhang He, this Xiahou Yuan is an offensive opponent, the so-called offensive opponent is to put the opponent to death within how many moves and not give the opponent a chance to breathe.

Xiahou Yuan's marksmanship is also very distinctive, what are the characteristics? That is a set of "fast, accurate, ruthless" in one, very fierce, fast like the wind, Xiahou Yuan's strength is also extraordinary, two arms shake that is also 800 catties of strength, this kind of strength makes his golden gun like Mount Tai pressing, so that the opponent feels very ruthless, Xiahou Yuan's attack is also very accurate, the tiger head golden gun attack target is not indiscriminate, but a little face-to-face move to kill ah, so that the opponent can not be guarded, so that Xiahou Yuan easily among the fierce generals.

After all, Zhang He is also a first-class general, this steel gun is not in vain, in the face of Xiahou Yuan's aggressive situation, Zhang He can still support, the two of them have dozens of battles in a row, Xiahou Yuan can not defeat Zhang He, Zhang He is young after all, full of energy, but the previous fierce battle with Cao Hong still consumed a lot of physical strength, in the face of Xiahou Yuan's fierce attack, Zhang He is tired of parrying, Xiahou Yuan's voice is strong, brave, this golden gun is even more weighty, but I saw Xiahou Yuan's golden gun pulled, straight to Zhang He's face, Zhang He crossed the iron beam "click" With a bang, the shocked Zhang He war horse couldn't help but take a few steps back

The two fought to more than 60 years, Zhang He couldn't support it in terms of strength, and he didn't have time to dodge in front of him, and his helmet was almost cut off by Xiahou Yuan's golden gun, and Zhang He couldn't help but have a cool breeze on his backbone! Look at Xiahou Yuan is more and more courageous, immediately a golden gun is coming again, Zhang He's eyes are fast and about to make a steel gun, Zhang He gritted his teeth and opened Xiahou Yuan's golden gun, the two horses circled Zhang He couldn't help but take a few steps back, Xiahou Yuan screamed and continued to attack, Zhang He couldn't resist and retreated, Xiahou Yuan continued to attack Zhang He with all his strength, Zhang He gradually weakened, but still did the trapped beast still fighting, but gradually at a disadvantage, this scene aroused the fighting spirit of Ma Chao on the battlefield, but saw Ma Chao shoot the horse dance gun out of the front to help the battle.

But I saw Ma Chao wearing a phoenix fork purple gold helmet, wearing a silver large-leaf chain armor, a gold-swallowing beast and a sea-swallowing beast in the middle, Lou Hai Ribbon embroidered with eight treasures, a phoenix skirt knocking knees, stepping on cloud dragon combat boots and pedaling tiger heads, wearing a white robe, looking like a crown of jade, skin like Fu powder, a pair of sword eyebrows, eyes like meteors, four-character square Haikou, a straight nose, a thin waist and a wide tiger body wolf waist, standing off the horse can have nine feet to hang zero, holding a tiger head Zhan gold gun in his hand, this gun body is made of mixed iron and steel, one foot and three feet long, The head of the spear is a golden tiger head shape, the tiger's mouth swallows the blade, it is made of platinum, it is extremely sharp, and the crotch is a snow horse, but I see that this horse looks like a grape-eyed toad face pig thousand words ear big obediently, a big riding bowl, small hooves broken and the tail of the sect are messy, the front crotch is wide, the back crotch is narrow, the day line is a thousand, the night walk is eight hundred, immediately out of the battle before the scream, there is really a momentum of soaring clouds and fog, Ma Chao's appearance is one to end the extraordinary two to be outstanding. (To be continued......)
