Chapter 93: Accepting Xu Yu
He Yi sent the deputy marshal to fight, and the two did not fight for more than three rounds before they were assassinated under the horse.
Cao Cao led his people to pursue the victory, and soon rushed to Yangshan to set up a camp.
In the center of the formation, a person looked very strange, he was wrapped in a yellow scarf, wearing a green jacket, holding an iron rod, and shouted: "I am Yaksha He Man, I am invincible, which of you dares to fight with me?" ”
When Cao Hong heard this, he felt funny, flew over, came out with a knife, and the two fought in front of the battle, fighting for forty or fifty rounds, but they still couldn't tell the winner. So Cao Hong pretended that he couldn't fight, his strength was exhausted, and he ran behind, and He Man hurriedly chased after him. Cao Hong dragged the knife on the ground, turned around and slashed, He Man did not expect it, he was slashed, and after being injured, before he could escape, he was hacked to death by Cao Hong's other knife.
Li Dian also took advantage of the situation at this time to ride a horse directly into the enemy Rao camp, and Huang Shao didn't have time to guard for a while, so he was captured alive by Li Diansheng. Cao Cao's troops further covered up, the leader of the enemy general was captured, and the group of dragons had no leader, so they fled in all directions, and in this battle, they won a lot of gold, silver, and food, and He Yi's power became less and less, and he fled in the direction of Gepi with a hundred cavalry, and halfway through, suddenly some troops appeared behind the mountain, led by a strong man, eight feet long, with a thick waistline, and a machete in his hand, blocking his way.
He Yi thought that some miscellaneous soldiers were blocking the road, so he went out to fight directly, but he was captured alive by the other party with weapons and people in one round.
The other people saw the power of the fat man, and they rushed to be afraid, so they surrendered directly, and the others were also driven to Gepiwu Zheng
At this time, Dian Wei and Cao Bing also chased over, saw this person, the troops were stopped by him, Dian Wei asked: "Are you also a Yellow Turban thief?" ”
The strong man said: "The Yellow Turban Thief has hundreds of cavalry, all of whom have been captured and locked up by me. ”
Dian Wei felt that this person should not be an enemy when he caught the Yellow Turban Thief, so he said: "Since this is the case, why not sacrifice them." ”
The strong man said: "You have such a big breath, look at your appearance, you are also a person with strong martial arts, so let's do it, if you can win the treasure knife in my hand, I will sacrifice the captured Yellow Turban Thief without missing any of your requirements." ”
In the face of contempt, Dian Wei arrived very angry, and came out to fight with a double halberd, and the two of them fought from noon to night, but they didn't know whether they won or lost, and they were a little tired when they arrived, so they agreed to rest first. After a while, the strong man came out to find Dian Wei to fight alone, and Dian Wei was naturally aroused to be competitive, and the fight did not end until midnight, and the people on both sides were sleepy and tired, so they could only stop temporarily.
Dian Wei knew that he had encountered an opponent of equal strength, so he asked his sergeants to report the situation to Cao Cao.
Cao Cao felt both excited and happy after hearing this, and hurriedly took all the generals to the scene to see, to the neighbor two, the strong man came out to challenge again, Cao Cao personally saw the competition between this person and Dian Wei, almost comparable, and he was majestic, so that Cao Cao gave birth to some willingness to recover, he was very happy, and told Dian Wei, and then go to the single-handedly defeat.
So Dian Wei obeyed this order, and after more than 30 rounds of one-on-one confrontation with the strong man, he was defeated and walked back, and the strong man also rushed to the formation and was shot back by the bow and arrow inside.
Cao Cao also hurriedly retreated five miles back with his troops, sent people to dig some big pits on the road he had to pass, and then used some means. Second, he ordered Dian Wei to come out with more than a hundred cavalry.
Because Dian Wei failed to escape the previous time, this made the strong man feel very funny and looked down on him, and said: "I was defeated yesterday, and I dare to challenge it again today?" ”
So Dian Wei went to fight with the other party as before, and after a few rounds, he showed his flaws, and then went back, and the strong man fought up, where would he escape, and hurriedly chased after him, and did not think about what to beware of, rushed halfway and fell into the pit dug by Cao Cao with people and horses, and was captured alive by the enemy with a net, and tied up to see Cao Cao.
When Cao Cao saw this, he hurriedly reprimanded the sergeant and said, "Why are you so rude." Then he went and untied him himself, and then brought him his clothes and put them on him, and sat him down, and asked for his name, and some other things.
Seeing that the other party was very polite, the anger in his heart was not easy to release, and he replied: "I am a native of Qian County, surnamed Xu, named Chu, and known as Zhongkang. When the thieves came, I sent for them to take a lot of stones, and I myself attacked them with stones, and when none of them missed, the thieves were afraid, and they all fled. Another day, the grain reserves in the dock were gone, so I negotiated the conditions with the thieves, and agreed to exchange the cultivated land for rice, and the rice was used, and the thieves drove the cattle to the vicinity, and the cattle fled because they were frightened, and I grabbed the tail of the cow with both hands, and walked more than 100 steps backwards, and the others were very surprised when they saw it, and they did not dare to fight the idea of the cow again, so I made sure that nothing happened to this place. ”
Cao Cao naturally couldn't judge whether the other party's matter was true or false, but it didn't matter, the important thing was that the other party used it for himself, and that was enough, so he deliberately showed a very admiring expression, and said: "Actually, I've been listening to your name for a long time, I hope you can come to assist me, my team just lacks talents like you." ”
Xu Chu said: "This is also my wish, I hope to let my clan come over." ”
So Xu Chu brought a hundred people to surrender, Cao Cao worshiped Xu Chu as the captain, and the reward for him was very generous, and then beheaded all the remnants of some Yellow Turban thieves, and pacified Runan and Yingchuan.
After Cao Cao's squad returned, Cao Ren and Xiahoudun came to see him, understood the recent situation, and said: "The two generals of Yanzhou, Xue Lan and Li Feng, have been taking their sergeants outside to loot supplies for a long time, and the city is empty, so they can take advantage of the victorious army to attack and take Yanzhou in one fell swoop." ”
Cao Cao also thought that this was a very good opportunity, so he led his army straight in the direction of Shangzhou. Xue Lan and Li Feng had no choice but to go out of the city to meet them
It just so happened that Xu Chu felt that he should do something for Cao Cao and get further recognition, so he took the initiative to say: "I am willing to be a pioneer and offer two heads to express my meeting gift." ”
Cao Cao smiled and ordered him to go to battle.
Li Feng naturally didn't know Xu Chu, and the weapon he used was a halberd, relying on his own martial arts, and he didn't take others in his eyes, and said to Xu Chu: "Where did you get the miscellaneous pieces, you should go back obediently, so as not to give your own life." ”
Xu Chu didn't answer, he directly lifted the big knife, and rushed forward with the horses, after a few rounds of intersecting between the two, Li Feng found that he was not an opponent at all, and wanted to escape, but unfortunately the difference in strength was too great, Xu Chu directly followed with a knife and killed him under the horse.
