What is Cao Zhang's situation?

It was not better than Cao Peng expected, and there was no situation as Cao Peng imagined.

Because Liu Chuang didn't have the time to pay attention to Cao Zhang, after the end of the battle that night, he received news that Gao Shun commanded 10,000 troops and arrived on the north bank of the Yellow River.

At the same time, with the emergence of Sima Fu, the situation in Hanoi gradually stabilized.

The resistance of the three counties of Shanyang, Huojia and Xiuwu weakened, and it was believed that it would not be long before the three counties would surrender to Liu Chuang. The soldiers and horses of the three counties, to put it bluntly, are the private soldiers of the gentry of the three counties. They hoped to gain some benefits from Liu Chuang, so they resisted vigorously.

Now, Liu Chuang's focus has shifted from Hanoi to Tiger Prison, and the three counties continue to toss, which has no practical significance. The most important thing is that Sima Fu may not be famous, but the name of Sima's children is also of great significance to the Hanoi gentry.

With Sima Fu coming forward, there are only some side matters left, and there is no need for Liu Chuang to come out at all......

The pressure on Gao Shun was relieved.

After Sima Fu arrived in Huaixian, he immediately raised his troops and horses and went straight to the Tiger Pass.

At the same time, Guo Yi, the Taishou of Yanmen, also dispatched troops and horses from Yanmen and quickly approached in the direction of Hanoi. Liu Chuang was going to meet Gao Shun, so he couldn't take care of Cao Zhang's affairs for the time being. In fact, even if he saw Cao Zhang now, he didn't know what to say.

Could it be that he can't tell Cao Zhang, let him serve himself, and Cao Zhang's operation?

It is estimated that if he dares to say this, Cao Zhang will immediately turn against Liu Chuang. Don't look at Cao Zhang's young age, but he is a person with great ideas. Liu Chuang didn't think about saying that he would descend Cao Zhang, so he asked him to calm down first. Then make a plan. Anyway. He wouldn't really embarrass Cao Zhang.

Gao Shun stayed in Pingao for a day. Visited Cao Xing.

Previously, at the Dahe crossing, Cao Xing attacked Cao Zhang and was seriously injured.

Fortunately, the rescue was timely, and Cao Xing did not worry about his life. After being rescued by the military doctors, he soon woke up......

It's just that Shulong felt shameless to face the lord, and he was actually planted in the hands of a group of children. Hehe, when I saw him in Pinggao, he was very ashamed. ”

After Gao Shun met Liu Chuang at the ferry. talked about Cao Xing with a smile.

In fact, Liu Chuang could hear that Gao Shun was actually probing his own tone...... He was worried that Cao Xing's defeat this time would affect his status in Liu Chuang's mind in the future. Speaking of which, Cao Xing has been smooth sailing in northern Xinjiang in recent years, and he has had the upper hand in several confrontations with the Xianbei people. Returning to the Central Plains this time, Cao Xing is ambitious and wants to build a career. Who knew that as soon as he appeared, he was beaten by Cao Zhang and other boys. In the end, he almost lost his life at the crossing of the Yellow River.

If you change people, you will also feel worried.

Liu Chuang laughed. "Shulong thinks too much, there is a way that victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, and who can really win a hundred battles? He was just careless this time, so he fell into Cao Jun's ambush, if he really fought face-to-face, I was afraid that Cao Jun might not be able to bargain in his hands.

I've had a lot of business lately, and I don't have time to visit.

Xiao Gong turned around and sent someone to tell Uncle Sù, saying that I will wait for him to return to the battlefield after he recovers from his injury, and now that we are chasing the Central Plains, there must be a series of battles, and I also hope that he will get better soon, don't think about it anymore. ”

Speaking of which, the relationship between Liu Chuang and Gao Shuncao is also very close.

I think that when he first arrived in Liaodong, Gao Shun and Cao Xing, these old generals of Lu Bu, did Liu Chuang a lot of favors.

Without these people, it would not be easy for Liu Chuang to quickly gain a foothold in Liaodong. Now, Liu Chuang has risen in Hebei, with fierce generals and many strategists, but his feelings for Gao Shun and these old people have not changed in any way.

Don't forget each other!

These six words seem easy to say, but it doesn't seem to be easy to do.

Of course, Liu Chuang couldn't have underestimated Cao Xing because of a few failures...... To be honest, Cao Jun's previous sneak attack was also due to Cao Xing's carelessness. Otherwise, Cao Zhang, they may not be able to bargain. In terms of force, the top ten generals under Liu Chuang's command are brave and good at fighting, and there are even fierce generals such as Ma Chao. But if it is said that the army is marching and fighting, the talents of Gao Shuncao and these people may not really be inferior to the top ten generals.

The reason why Liu Chuang brought Gao Shun and Cao Xing from Northern Xinjiang and Shangdang this time was precisely to use their experience.

Gao Shun was also relieved when he heard Liu Chuang's words.

"Shulong is also guilty, and now he can't wait to recover his body and worry about the lord."

The two stayed at the Han army camp at the ferry that night.

Gao Shun asked about the battle situation in the Tiger Prison, and the smile on Liu Chuang's face disappeared suddenly.

"In today's battle, Cao Jun is indeed at a disadvantage.

However, its strength still exists, and Xun Yu will inevitably continue to send more troops and horses to the tiger prison. And Cao Cao has begun to withdraw from Qinghe, thinking that he will return to Xudu in the near future. If you can't break through the tiger prison before Cao Cao returns, I'm afraid that you will return in vain...... Fortunately, the situation on Xiliang's side has been reversed. Zhang Lu returned to Hanzhong, and Yuan Zhi no longer had any worries. As long as the battle of Guanzhong is fought, our pressure will inevitably weaken a lot...... Filial piety, the battle of the Tiger Prison will inevitably be extremely tragic, and I have to rely on filial piety to share my worries. ”

Gao Shun heard this and immediately smiled.

"The lord just rest assured, and he will help the lord."

+++++++++++++++++++++++

There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, Liu Chuang and Gao Shun led their troops back to the outside of the Tiger Prison Pass.

I saw that the wall of the Tiger Prison Pass was strong, and the Cao army on the gate was waiting for it, and it had put on a posture of stubborn defense.

Liu Chuang was not afraid of Cao Peng and him facing him head-on, but he had an extreme headache for Cao Jun's posture of strict defense. In this way, the battle of the Tiger Prison will inevitably turn into a tragic offensive and defensive battle. Even if Liu Chuang was prepared in his heart, he was a little worried in his heart.

After this battle, God knows how many soldiers will be killed and wounded......

If possible, Liu Chuang really didn't want to fight like Cao Jun.

Killing and killing, in the final analysis, it is the people of the big Han who kill each other. Historically, why did the Wuhu Chaos appear? There may be many reasons for this, but the most critical point is that after a hundred years of conquest, Hermes-Epitek's population plummeted and its vitality was greatly damaged.

However, in order to avoid the occurrence of such a chaotic situation, this war is inevitable.

Liu Chuang took Fa Zheng and Gao Shun to investigate the defense of the Tiger Prison Pass, and couldn't help but complain secretly......

Even if he had two weapons in his hands, the Heavenly Thunder Fire and the Winch Crossbow, if he wanted to break through the Tiger Prison, he would have to pay a great price. After Liu Chuang and the others explored outside the city, they returned to the Han army camp. It's just that as soon as he walked into the big tent of the Chinese army, he saw Zhang He coming in a hurry.

"Lord, the third son of the Cao family is clamoring to meet you."

When Liu Chuang heard this, his brows couldn't help frowning.

After hesitating for a moment, he said softly, "In that case, bring him here." ”

Fa Zheng and Gao Shun immediately bowed down and retired, because the two of them also knew that this was already Liu Chuang's family matter, and it was not suitable for the two of them to stay here.

After a while, Cao Zhang strode into the Chinese army's tent.

This kid didn't have the slightest attitude of being a captive, and after seeing Liu Chuang, he said sharply: "Brother-in-law, today I will become a prisoner of your subordinates, and if you want to kill it, you can do whatever you want." But if you want me to surrender to you, it's a fantasy! ”

Liu Chuangyi frowned, looked at Cao Zhang, and shook his head with a wry smile after a while.

"Ziwen, you sit down first."

"I'm not sitting!"

Cao Zhang's neck was stiffened, he looked at Liu Chuang without fear, and said loudly: "For the sake of the second sister's face, I will call you brother-in-law." But now, I represent my father, and you are his enemy. You don't want to instigate, what are you going to do with me, give me a good time. ”

Liu Chuang was also angry, "If it weren't for your sister's affection, Lao Tzu picked up the human head sacrifice flag last night, how could you be allowed to make noise here?" ”

He took a deep breath and smiled bitterly after a while.

"Ziwen, just rest assured, I will never harm your life.

As I told you, there is no personal grudge between me and my father-in-law, and the situation we have today is really a last resort. Your father can't retreat, and neither can I. You must also know that the ideal of one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers, and between me and him, someone must bow his head to achieve.

To be honest, I didn't expect you to appear on the battlefield, and you made me suffer two losses in a row, and even almost lost one of my generals. I won't kill you, but you don't want me to let you go. It's not that I don't understand the truth of letting the tiger return to the mountain...... So, I thought about it and decided to send you to Yanjing. I will send a letter to my father-in-law to inform him of this. ”

"I'm not going to Yanjing."

"It's up to you to decide whether to go or not."

Liu Chuang took the case and said sharply: "What do you think this place is?" Who do you think you can talk to me about?

If it weren't for your second sister's face, how could I allow you to be arrogant here?

If you are wise, give me good advice...... Your second sister now has a body, you can go to Yanjing for me to accompany her to relax. If you still want to play a little temper with me and be a hero, Lao Tzu will break your legs, then strip you naked, tie you up and send you back to Yanjing. ”

Liu Chuang's anger also made Cao Zhang lose his temper suddenly.

Speaking of which, he was quite afraid of Liu Chuang.

Don't look at Liu Chuang, who usually smiles at him, and has a pleasant face. But Cao Zhang heard that his brother-in-law had a killing spree in Liaodong last year, and Liaodong was bloodied. This is a man who will not be merciful in killing people! He also believes that if Liu Chuang can say it, he can do it. Thinking that he is the third son of the Cao family, if he is really stripped of his clothes and sent to Yanjing, it will be a shame.

Therefore, as soon as Liu Chuang became angry, Cao Zhang suddenly became a head shorter.

He waited for a long time before he squeezed out a sentence, "The second sister is pregnant, when did it happen?" ”

"You saw her and asked herself...... Now, get out of here and pack up honestly.

I'll let you keep an eye on you, and if you dare to act rashly, don't blame me for being ruthless. If you make a move, you will be the one who will suffer at that time. ”

When Cao Zhang heard this, his color suddenly changed.
