~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

At the end of August of the second year of Jian'an, the imperial court officially sent Dong Zhao, a counselor, to Hanoi to mediate between the Hanoi army and the Yanzhou army. However, Dong Zhao had just crossed the Yellow River, the shooting dog (Zhang Yangtun Military Department) changed, and Yang Chou, the lieutenant of Hanoi, led the army to attack and kill Zhang Yang, and the whole county was in chaos.

A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, let alone Dong Zhao, who has an extremely sensitive sense of smell. As a result, as soon as Dong Zhao stepped on the north shore, he immediately spun his heels and boarded the boat, and returned directly to Luoyang, and died before the mediation began.

In detail, Zhang Yangzhizhi was inferior to Lu Bu, and he was not Cao Cao's opponent at all, and as a result, Hanoi fell into civil strife with only a little trick. And Zhang Yang was finally really stabbed in both ribs for his friend.

After Yang Chou killed Zhang Yang, he wanted to surrender his subordinates to Cao Cao, but Cao Cao was still in Chenliu, and it was Cao Hong who commanded Cao's army to attack Hanoi. Yang Chou waited for the price to sell, only Cao Cao, not Cao Hong, so Cao Cao, who heard the news, immediately traveled day and night and rushed to Hanoi.

At this time, the regeneration waves. Hanoi Governor Shi Xue Hong, the new Taishou Miao Shang, was determined to Yuan Shao, and urgently sent a messenger north to ask Yuan Shao for help. At this time, Cao Hong, who was stationed under the Shooting Dog City, didn't know it, otherwise he would have withdrawn his troops to cross the river as soon as possible.

In early September, Cao Cao arrived to shoot dogs. Ready to accept Yang Chou's surrender. The reason why Cao Cao was willing to put down his body and put himself in danger was that in fact, the drunkard's intention was not Yang Chou, but the horse on the other side of the river - he seemed to be declaring, I, Cao Cao, am here. Ma Han, come here if you want to catch me, hurry up!

At this moment, Cao Cao made a fatal mistake, and he focused all his attention on the south - according to the news from Luoyang, the Son of Heaven had approved Ma Han to use the Dragon Wolf Army to intervene in the war in Hanoi. Other words. The plan is about to be completed.

On the fifth day of the ninth month, Sima Ma Chao and Sima Pang De of the Dragon and Wolf Troops were ordered to lead the whole battalion of 1,500 men and horses out of Luoyang and stationed in Aocang; At the same time, Chelang will be Zhoucang. He also led a school dragon wolf army, Chen Bing Pingyin, echoing with Ma Chao's other departments. That frame, no one who sees it will not doubt that the next step is to cross the river to attack Cao.

Just as Ma Han attached too much importance to Cao Cao, Cao Cao had regarded Ma Han as his first enemy since the defeat of Xia Pi. Under the menacing gaze of the vicious wolf on the other side of the river, he had to deal with it with all his might, and he did not dare to be distracted. And Yuan Shao's side. Only Xun Chen was sent as an envoy to mediate. Similarly, Xun Chen after learning the news of Zhang Yang's death. When he came to Xiuwu, he no longer wanted to send a messenger to reprimand him.

Yuan Shao's reaction was expected by Cao Cao and Xun Yu, and at the same time, they also knew that such a situation would not last long. It is necessary to speed up the progress and boil this piece of fat meat in Hanoi to the fullest. Attract the dragon and wolf army to swallow it.

The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind. In this world, there are not only Cao Cao and Ma Han who have top strategists. Yuan Shao also has no shortage of talents. When Cao Cao's eyes were fixed on Luoyang and he opened his net, Yuan Shao launched.

On the ninth day of the ninth month of September, Cao Cao received an urgent letter from the rear, opened it and saw that it was written by Xun Yu, there were only a few sentences on the letter, and the central meaning was only one: beware of Hebei and withdraw the troops as much as possible.

Cao Cao was frightened and shocked, and immediately sent a messenger to shoot the dog, in response to Yang Chouyi's request.

Yang Chou, who had his requirements satisfied, was proud, in order to show his sincerity and to dispel Cao Cao's concerns, Yang Chou was ready to personally lead his troops out of the city to meet Cao Cao.

Yang Chou was furious, and immediately led the troops to counterattack, but just pulled out the camp and wanted to go, suddenly from the northeast to kill a group of people, as many as more than 10,000 people, the first two generals played the banner is actually Yuan's banner, and the flag is written on the two black characters of Dou Da "Yan" and "Gao".

Yan Liang, Gao Ran, and the two generals of the Yuan family attacked together.

Yang Chou was caught off guard, fell into a siege, and was beheaded in the chaos.

Cao Cao's sense of smell is also not under Dong Zhao, as soon as he heard that Taishou and Changshi were troubled, he knew that the other party must find a new backer, no matter whether this backer is Yuan Shao or Ma Han, he has only one thing to do - withdraw.

Therefore, before Yang Chou was raided, Cao Jun had already pulled out the camp and retreated sharply to avoid confronting Yuan's army. And Yan Liang and Gao Ran were also anxious to besiege and kill Yang Chou, and they couldn't take care of him for the time being, so Cao Cao was able to retreat safely.

When the army retreated to the Yellow River, Cao Hong said depressedly: "I thought that this time I could fit a Liaodong wolf, but I didn't expect it to attract a Hebei tiger...... This trip was in vain. ”

Cao Cao stood on the high bank, looking at the turbid waves surging under the hundred-foot deep ravine, without too much frustration on his face, and smiled: "It's not in vain." Although we failed to drag the Liaodong wolf in, at least one tiger was introduced to the place, and the tiger and wolf are neighbors, and there will be a fight in the future. ”

Cao Hong realized at this time, turned his worries into joy, and high-fived: "Great, in this way, there will be a good show." ”

Cao Cao smiled and sighed. That's right, there will be a good show next, but unfortunately, it is he who stands on the stage.

Whether it is Yuan Shaozhan Hanoi or Ma Han stationed in Yewang, a battle with each other is inevitable, but that is a matter of the future. At present, for the Yanzhou forces, only Ma Huan's entry into Hanoi can attract Yuan Shao's hatred and keep them out of the way, so as to get a respite in order to recover. As for Yuan Shaozhan Hanoi, the situation will be completely different, and the target of the war will be them.

This time, it was really burned.

On September 12, 5,000 Cao's troops retreated to Jixian in one go, and then began to cross the river. On the other side of the river is Yan County, which was originally the territory of Cao Jun, and later belonged to Yuan Shao, and later, Yuan Shao used it in exchange for Le'an, so it is now the land of Ma Han. However, Ma Han's original purpose in taking Yan County was only to protect the safety of the grain road, not because it was a strategic location. After Yuan Shao's demise of Gongsun Zhan, bilateral relations have undergone subtle changes. The common enemy is gone, and the covenant is dead in name only, and it is neither friend nor foe. Perhaps, in the near future, friend or foe. As a result, the grain replacement agreement, which had been in place for nearly a year, automatically expired.

There is no food to protect, and Yan County has lost the significance of stationing heavy troops. Therefore, as early as half a year ago, Ma Han had transferred Yan Ying back and used Yan County as a buffer zone with Cao Cao's forces. And this time Cao Cao sent troops to Hanoi, and it was from this that he crossed the river, so he had to take this road when he came back.

When crossing the river, Cao Cao and Cao Hong were always worried that Yuan Shao would send a large army to raid from behind. Then they will have to shed their skin if they don't die. Thankfully, this worrying situation didn't happen.

In fact, there were indeed people on Yuan Shao's side who proposed to attack Cao Cao, but Yuan Shao remembered that the two sides were still allies, so he made such a surprise attack. If you do not declare war, you will lose your trust in the world, and you will also damage your reputation. He didn't take Cao Cao in his eyes, but now Cao is even more severely injured by Ma Han, and his strength has shrunk dramatically, and his Jizhou Group is unprecedentedly strong. Since you can defeat the enemy with dignity. And why use such a defilementous method? Because Cao Cao was able to escape.

After the army was halfway crossed, Cao Cao and Cao Hong finally breathed a sigh of relief—but they did so too soon.

Yuan Shao wants fame and demeanor. Don't do a half-cross attack, but Ma Han doesn't care about this.

As soon as more than 1,000 Cao soldiers landed on the shore, they saw more than a dozen horsemen who had crossed the river to patrol the sentry steam and fled with all their might, and a few miles behind them, the smoke was smoking, churning and surging. Experienced veterans could see at a glance that a large force of cavalry was rapidly approaching.

The soldiers who crossed the river in advance were tasked with arranging and defending. In order to ensure the safety of the army crossing the river later, it is necessary to have soldiers with certain combat experience. And these soldiers are some veterans and Huainan soldiers brought back by Cao Hong from Xuzhou. However, in the face of such a large cavalry charge, even veterans, they must change color, especially the Huainan soldiers, who have just been "turned positive" from prisoners, and their will to resist is very poor, and the enemy army is still a few miles away, so they are in chaos.

The cavalry galloped extremely fast, miles away, but it was only in a moment before the sight. In the mist of smoke, hundreds of iron horsemen rushed to roar, faintly visible the light of the blade and spear blade flashing, the armor light reflected the sun, the iron hooves broke the ground, looking from a distance, like a yellow dragon with a long tail of dust.

This momentum is really amazing, and Sergeant Cao exploded with a bang. What kind of soldiers are still lined up, what kind of formations are lined up, such a wild riding formation, how can the flesh and blood be able to stop it?

After the cavalry array rushed nearly 300 paces, it split into two, like a goshawk spreading its wings, and chiseled the Cao army's chaotic formation from the left and right sides.

When the banner of the dragon and wolf army appeared on the other side of the river, as well as the hunting and fluttering "horse" and "pang" banners, Er Cao's face was extremely ugly. It turned out that the real purpose of the dragon and wolf other troops stationed in Aocang was not to cross the river at all, but to ambush. At this point, not to mention Cao Cao, even Cao Hong understood that Ma Han didn't hit the plan at all, they moved stones and shot themselves in the foot.

The dragon and wolf other divisions are the original Xiliang Army, the fierceness of the Xiliang Army, and the three auxiliaries are famous, especially the other division of Ma Chao, which has been vigorously supported by the old Ma family, with sufficient horses and cavalry accounting for one-third of the strong. On the other hand, Cao Cao's cavalry was not more than 100, and most of the army was recruits, and he was fighting against the water, and the battle was lost before it started.

Ma Chao's dragon and wolf cavalry, and the dragon and wolf cavalry is very different, there are few bow horses, most of them are semi-heavy horses, and the battle focuses on tearing the enemy formation from the flanks with strong impact force, just like a cheetah tearing a sheep, this is the horse super heavy cavalry combat method.

On September 12, on the south bank of the Yellow River, the dragon and wolf fought for the first time, breaking Cao with one blow, and the number of people who fell into the river and died is unknown.

Cao Cao and Cao Hong were lucky that they were still on the north bank and did not cross the river. Cao Cao, who was blocked, led the remnants of his army to defeat the general, and bravely marched all the way east, reaching the Liyang camp. At this time, Jiang Qi, the commander of the Liyang battalion, had a good relationship with Cao Cao, turned a blind eye, and allowed Cao's army to cross the river from under his nose and arrive at Baimajin on the south bank.

When Cao Cao stepped on the land on the south bank of the Yellow River, it felt like he had gone around the Ghost Gate.

Cao Cao didn't know that at the moment when he stepped on the white horse, on the north bank of the Yellow River, there was a team of men and horses galloping into the Liyang camp, led by Jizhou Don't Drive Frustrated, when he learned that Cao Jun had crossed the river and returned to the south, he couldn't help but sigh: "It's a pity!" Let the tiger return to the mountain, he will fight again in the future, I don't know how many sons will be killed in battle! ”

The words of frustration revealed a strong fighting spirit. Guandu is about to begin. (To be continued)
