Xu Chu's action of tearing the living people like angry King Kong stunned the Cao soldiers who were crossing the river. A few of the soldiers who were swimming towards the boat quickly turned around and swam towards the other boats.

Although most of the soldiers on both sides of the strait saw Xu Chu Fawei, there were a few unlucky Cao Jun who did not see it. These Cao Jun are the few soldiers who were holding the boat just now. Xu Chu and Cao Cao shook off their hands when they landed on the boat, and when the boat shook up and down, Cao Jun on the side of these boats was all pressed underwater, just missing the scene of Xu Chu's murder.

A few Cao soldiers on the side of the boat choked a few mouthfuls of river water, and their will to survive was stronger. As soon as he surfaced, before his eyes opened, he instinctively grabbed the side of the boat, eager to get on the boat and flee for his life. The number of soldiers clinging to the left and right of the boat was different, liliang was uneven, and it shook from side to side, almost overturning the boat, and Cao Cao almost fell.

Xu Chu saw that there were still dead soldiers who dared to hold the side of the boat and shake it, and his heart was even more angry, so he picked up the phoenix mouth knife in the cabin and slashed indiscriminately, breaking the hand of the boat. Soon there were a few more men on the boat, and the screams and wails under the boat were endless.

The boat was not bound by the soldiers, but instead of going to the north shore, it slowly went down the river. Xu Chu then remembered that the unmanned boat was unmanned, and hurriedly stood at the stern of the boat and supported the boat with a wooden penny. It's a pity that Xu Chu is a good hand at fighting, but he is not good at driving a boat, the boat is swaying and almost about to capsize, and Cao Cao is short at Xu Chu's feet before he is shaken off the boat.

Xu Chu was very embarrassed to see Cao Cao so embarrassed, and suddenly saw a soldier next to the boat swimming across the river, obviously a little watery. Xu Chu stretched out the penny in front of the soldier and said, "Get on the boat!" ”

The sergeant in the river cried in fright when he saw the wooden penny stretched out by Xu Chu, shook his head and said, "General Xu, don't get on the boat, the general doesn't want to kill me!" ”

Xu Chu didn't expect that he would scare the soldiers like this, he was funny in his heart, but he said angrily: "Who wants to kill you?" Come up and steer the boat for me. With that, he waved the penny in his hand and picked it up, and picked the river sergeant onto the boat.

Most of the soldiers in the north don't know how to water, but those who know water grow up by the river, and most of them can drive boats. The soldiers who were brought on the boat by Xu Chu really had two hits, and knew that Xu Chu didn't want to kill himself, so he took the penny and crossed the river.

There were so many changes in the river, Ma Chao saw it in his eyes, and he wanted to kill Cao Cao immediately, but he was stopped by a hundred tiger guards on the shore. Cao Cao's tiger guards were specially trained by the inspiration of Master Nanye's personal guards, and they were not loyal and brave, but they were trained and led by Xu Chu, and each tiger guard had the strength of Dubo and Tun generals, even if it was a grade worse than the mage guards, but it was much stronger than ordinary soldiers.

When Hu Wei saw Ma Chao coming to chase and kill Cao Cao, how could he let him get his wish? Ignoring the huge gap in strength between the two sides, they stopped Ma Chao's vanguard cavalry. These tiger guards have a horse chopping knife in their hands, all of which are modeled after Xu Chu's phoenix mouth knife, seeing people cutting people, seeing horses and horses, they are not afraid of death, and their combat style is eight points similar to the Mo knife team in the Sui and Tang dynasties. By the time Ma Chao's army had killed all of Zuihou's tiger guards, Cao Cao's boat had already crossed half of it.

Ma Chao rushed to the shore and saw that the boat was in the middle of the river, so he shot his bow and arrow. On the boat, Xu Chu saw Ma Chao open his bow and thought that he was going to shoot Cao Cao, so he raised a saddle on the boat to cover it. Unexpectedly, Ma Chao did not shoot at Cao Cao, but the boat's sailors fell into the water and fell into the water with the wooden penny of the boat. The boat lost its support and spun erratically in the current.

Xiliang Tieqi saw that his general's arrows were not in vain, and they applauded, and also took javelins and threw them into the river. It's just that although the javelin is powerful, the range is not far, and it can't reach Cao Cao's boat, but Cao Jun, who was floating and struggling in the river, was shot countless times.

Ma Chao saw that the javelin was useless, so he ordered a few bow-wielding generals to shoot around the river, and the arrows were like rain for a while. Xu Chu was covered by the rain of arrows but had no fear, he rose up on the boat, held the rudder with his legs to stabilize the boat, held the boat with a phoenix mouth knife in his right hand, and raised a saddle in his left hand to protect Cao Cao, like a god descending to earth. Even on the other side, Ma Chao couldn't help but break his heart.

Ding Fei, the commander of Weinan County, knew that Ma Chao and Cao Cao were fighting in his own jurisdiction, so he ordered the people to hide in the Wubao in the mountains, and all the cattle, sheep and horses were driven into the village to prevent the rebels from looting. Today, when he was on the Nanshan Mountain, he saw that Ma Chao was chasing Cao Cao very urgently, and he was afraid that Cao Cao would lose, so he ordered the people under his rule to drive away all the cattle and horses.

The Xiliang army was shooting at Cao Cao in the river, and he heard the neighing of cows and horses behind him, and there were cows and horses breaking into the formation all over the mountains. There are Qiang tribes in the Xiliang army, and the discipline is not strict, and when they see the cattle and horses, they have no intention of chasing Cao Cao, so they go to rob them. The military formation, which was originally scattered by cattle and horses, was even more chaotic at this time, and Cao Cao took the opportunity to cross the river and get out.

The camping generals on the north shore learned that Cao Cao was in distress and rushed to the rescue, but Cao Cao had already landed on the shore. Everyone was shocked when they saw that Xu Chu, who was escorting Cao Cao, was hit by dozens of arrows. Fortunately, Xu Chu was wearing heavy armor and used a saddle to cover the vital point, so he was not seriously injured, most of the arrows were embedded in the armor, and a small number of arrows did not penetrate into the armor.

Cao Cao praised Xu Chu and said: "Zhongkang is a real tiger general!" If it weren't for Zhongkang being trapped by the horses today! ”

Xu Chu heard Cao Cao's praise Although his face was full of red light, he didn't dare to take credit alone, so he said: "If someone hadn't let the horse herd cattle to lure the thief, the thief would have worked hard to cross the river and chase and kill us." ”

Cao Cao asked, "Who is the one who lures the enemy?" ”

An informed general replied: "Weinan County Ling Ding Fei also." ”

When Cao Cao heard this, he summoned him. After a while, Ding Fei entered the account, and Cao Cao thanked: "If it weren't for Ding Gong's good plan, I would have been captured by thieves." After that, Ding Fei was promoted to lieutenant.

Ding Fei said: "Although the horse thief is temporarily gone, he will definitely come back tomorrow." Cheng quite rejected it with a good strategy. ”

Cao Cao said: "I have been prepared! Then he ordered all the battalions to set up camp and erect banners as suspicious soldiers, and dug trenches along the camp, spread branches and dead leaves on them, and then made traps with soil covers.

However, he said that Ma Chao did not capture Cao Cao, but made Cao Jun cross the river and came to Han Sui with a depressed heart: "I almost caught Cao Thief today, but one of them rose up bravely and coerced Cao Thief to get off the boat." This person is very brave, but he has an unknown surname. There are also more than 100 Cao soldiers holding broadswords and fighting to the death. If there were no such elite soldiers, the Cao thief would have died a long time ago. ”

Han Sui said: "I heard that Cao Cao chose a very strong man as the guard in front of the tent, called the Tiger Guard, and led it by Xu Chu, a general. Those who save Cao Cao today will be allowed to defend Chu Hu. Xu Chu's courage is outstanding, and everyone is called a tiger idiot. If a virtuous nephew encounters him, he should not be underestimated. ”

Ma Chao said: "It turned out to be him, and I have heard his name for a long time." ”

Han Sui said: "After Cao Cao crosses the river and attacks me, the virtuous nephew can attack him quickly, and he cannot be ordered to set up a camp. If a stronghold is erected, it will be difficult to destroy it. ”

Although Ma Chao killed a lot of Cao soldiers today, he did not catch Cao Cao, but also let Cao Bing's brigade cross the river, it can be said that although he won or lost, he complained in his heart that Han Sui's strategy was not good, if he followed his own strategy, at least he would not let Cao Cao cross the river. At this time, Han Sui came to offer a plan again, and Ma Chao was a little reluctant to listen, but he was not good at speaking outright, so he said: "Today, a soldier is tired, and he will fight again tomorrow for fear of losing." With the foolishness of his nephew, if he wants to fight quickly, he should change his military horse and go. ”
