It's just that others are cowardly, he won't, he will take the countless iron weapons he has snatched back to kill, and he will dedicate these things to Cao Cao to get credit.

The two generals didn't care, or they didn't take Cao Pi's report seriously, which directly led to their slow movement and thus being surrounded.

Zhang Liao, the commander of the Seventh Army Corps, who was marching towards Hedong, had been looking for Wang Shuang's traces.

The Tianyan Organization had already heard the news that it was this Wang Shuang who killed and returned to the mud, and Zhang Liao made an oath after knowing that he would behead this person under the horse to avenge the killing of the deputy army commander.

Hedong Dongyuan.

Wang Shuang came here with an unhurried speed.

This time into the hinterland of Hedong, Wang Shuang's harvest can be described as not small, just the iron tools robbed a full thirty carriages, and the treasury also has five large carts.

These things are Wang Shuang's harvest, and they are also the material evidence for him to prove his credit. Along the way, they walked carefully, as if they were afraid that they would be lost. Even if Cao Pi sent a document of urgent withdrawal, he didn't leave these things behind, in his opinion, the so-called Zhang Chao's main force is just to scare himself, at best, the soldiers of other prefectures and counties come to help, and these city defense soldiers will not be put in his eyes at all.

The arrogant Wang Shuang did not take the news sent by Cao Pi seriously, and after arriving in Dongyuan, he let the army rest here.

The wind and snow are getting bigger and bigger, Wang Shuang thinks that walking in this kind of weather is very unfavorable to the march, and in addition to carrying so many iron baggage, if one is not good, there will be a carriage accident, so it is better to stay in the city, raise your spirits, and leave when the weather is clear.

Wang Shuang's arrogance deprived him of his best chance to escape. When Zhang Liao learned his information and led the main force of the Seventh Legion outside the city in the snow, what he got was that the enemy who killed his deputy corps commander was still resting in the city.

"General, do you want the brothers to attack the city overnight." Several division commanders of the Seventh Army Corps all asked for battle with indignant expressions on their faces.

"No, everyone is tired all the way here. In this way, set up the tent and rest for the night, and then go to the side of the road at dawn, even if this Wang Shuang killed General Chu by means of ambush, we should retaliate with a tooth for a tooth. Although Zhang Liao was also very resentful in his heart, he still had reason and knew that such a snowy siege was very disadvantageous.

When the generals saw the commander of the corps ordering, although they were resentful, they still agreed. began to look for the roadside, and set up camp by the snow.

By the next morning, the weather had improved considerably, and although there was still a light snowfall, the army could walk. Wang Shuang ordered the soldiers below to prepare to go out of the city, and after eating in the morning, 20,000 troops carried more than 30 carts of baggage out of Dongyuan City.

"Report to the Legion Commander, the target is out." The spies of the Seventh Legion had been waiting outside the city, and when they saw Wang Shuang's army leaving the city, they immediately reported to Zhang Liao.

"Okay, tell the story, get ready to fight." Zhang Liao has also eaten breakfast at this moment, and after a night's rest, he can be said to be full of energy, and now everything is ready.

When the military order was issued, the Seventh Army Corps moved, and one by one they hid in the white tents and took their swords. And under the cover of the snow, it is difficult to spot them from a distance.

"The target has already left the city, and the rear army is also three miles away from Dongyuan City." The spies continued to report.

"Tell the four divisions to rush forward, cut off the enemy's rear route, and launch a general attack after the other legions have a pillar of incense." Zhang Liao held the halberd in his hand, patted the Yi Qunma beside him, and kept issuing military orders.

Light snow was still drifting in the air, and an army of 20,000 men was slowly advancing.

To say that Wang Shuang is really careless in doing things, or it is extremely arrogant, he only sent more than ten spies in front, and unfortunately, as soon as these Cao Jun spies entered the range of bows and arrows, they fell to their horses like hedgehogs one by one.

No one had the ability to run back to report the news. When Wang Shuang, who was behind him, marched out of the city with a large army for more than ten miles, and did not see any spies from his side returning, he felt that the situation was wrong. At this moment, the earth-shattering shouts of killing sounded on both sides of the road, and then countless black-armored soldiers suddenly sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.

First, a burst of bows and arrows broke through the air, shooting at the 20,000 troops under the king's hands.

"Quick, shieldman, shieldman ready." Looking at the arrows coming from the sky, Wang Shuang at this moment finally couldn't calm down. As a veteran on the battlefield, he can judge the enemy's strength from this arrow, this should not be an ordinary city defense soldier.

The shield-bearer heard the shout and stood in front of him with a meter-long iron black shield to fend off the arrows flying in front of him.

While stabilizing the battle ahead, Wang Shuang is also preparing to retreat, and now on the official road, there is no better thing to resist, he needs to withdraw to Dongyuan City, and he needs to resist with the help of the city wall there.

The army began to retreat, and during this period there was inevitably some confusion, seeing that more than thirty wagons of goods were blocking the road, some generals begged Wang Shuang if they could push these things to the side of the road, so that the army could move quickly.

The greedy Wang Shuang did not agree, these are all things that he did not get easily, and they are the capital for him to obtain military merits, how can he say that he gave up and gave up? For this he is a hundred disagree.

Wang Shuang disagreed, and these carriages became an obstacle for the 20,000 troops to retreat, so when the army passed through these carriages, it was impossible to form a complete formation at all, and there was even chaos again and again, so that many soldiers' ranks were disrupted.

The rear army of 20,000 soldiers began to withdraw from the eastern walled city, and when they turned back to kill, they encountered the resistance of the Seventh Army and the Fourth Division, and they were still shooting bows and arrows from the sky, causing an unknown number of soldiers to be killed by random arrows.

With no way out of life to advance and retreat, the morale of the originally chaotic army began to decline.

Zhang Liao looked at the enemy army who had no fighting spirit, and the halberd in his hand was raised high and said: "Brothers, it's time to avenge General Gui Ni and 110,000 soldiers, everyone will kill with me." ”

"Kill!"

Left and right, the Seventh Legion, with a total of 90,000 troops, launched a final attack.

Pity the 20,000 Cao soldiers, after being surrounded on all sides, they already had the feeling that the sky was falling. Now seeing that the main force of the enemy army began to charge, for a time everyone only sought self-preservation, and turned a deaf ear to what the so-called officers said about defense, what to resist, and what not to mess up, and even some smart people began to seek opportunities to flee, and abandoned the master will not be heed.

To say that Cao Cao still has a good set of training soldiers, at least he will not be like the soldiers under Dong Zhuo and Yuan Shao, who surrender when they find that things are not good, as long as the morale is still there, he will still make the last preparations.

The most fearful thing of an army is not that there are few people, nor is it a desperate situation, and it is not that something has happened to the main general, but that there is no morale.

An army without morale is like a tiger without teeth, and it is impossible for people to be feared and feared.

The current Cao soldiers are like this, after feeling surrounded, everyone thinks not about how to resist and kill the enemy, but how to save their lives, so they flee in batches.

Everyone only cares about themselves, which makes the ranks of 20,000 soldiers more and more chaotic, and when Zhang Liao leads the army to kill, many soldiers have already left the team and fled in all directions, which makes Wang Shuang, as a general, quickly exposed.

Wang Shuang, who originally had many soldiers around him, suddenly found that those people were like fallen leaves swept by the wind, and they were all gone, and when there were only more than 100 pro-soldiers left, he had a premonition.

When he saw the soldiers of the Seventh Legion who were coming in a murderous spirit not far away, he shouted loudly, "Quick, rush out with me." ”

"General, where are the supplies?" There was also a pro-soldier who was not long-sighted and asked inappropriate questions at this time.

"It's important to live, what do those things do, quick, hurry up and run away with me." Wang Shuang was really scared at this moment, there were soldiers by his side, and he still had some confidence, but now that they have all fled, do you want to stay here and wait to be a live target?

As for the thirty or so carts of iron, gold and silver, although they are very attractive, they are nothing compared to their own lives.

Looking in a direction, it seemed that the number of enemy troops there was not very large, so Wang Shuang clenched his swords and pointed forward: "Quick, follow me out from there." ”

The 20,000 soldiers were completely confused, which made them have little resistance power, but at the same time, it also brought certain difficulties to Zhang Liao's encirclement and suppression.

20,000 soldiers, breaking through the siege respectively, some teams have thousands of people, some only have hundreds, or even dozens of people, which makes it much more difficult to find Wang Shuang from it.

Zhang Liao was eager for revenge, seeing that the overall situation was decided, he would never allow the murderer to slip away from under his nose, for this reason, he instructed the soldiers around him, "Notify the division commanders and regiment commanders below to encircle and annihilate them separately, but Wang Shuang must not be allowed to escape, if he escapes from anyone, I will punish him." ”

The usual Zhang Liao's impression of the soldiers below is still very good, this person is kind, does things in a measured manner, has a good temper, and knows how to consider problems from the perspective of soldiers.

It can be said that Zhang Liao is a general who is very popular with the military. It's just that at this moment, he was also forced to give a ruthless order. After receiving the order, the soldiers also knew that it was the general who was angry, and immediately turned around one by one to convey the order.

Within a short period of time, all divisions, regiments, and even battalions and companies knew Zhang Liao's military orders, and for a time the 90,000 army was divided into countless units, and began to encircle and pursue the 20,000 Cao soldiers who wanted to escape.
