Sun Jian listened to Zhu Jun's introduction of his ancestors, and he was very proud in his heart, and said humbly: "Although the ancestors are glorious, they are not filial, and the strongest generation in the family has long been down. ”

The ancients had a good name, no matter when, they would always bring out their ancestors, such as Liu Bei often said that he was a member of the Han family, and after Ma Teng preached that he was a general of the Han Dynasty, Yuan Shao even put the name of his fourth and third princes on his lips, and it is estimated that modern people will die to save face and suffer crimes, which is the development of the false name of the ancients.

When Cao Cao heard Sun Wu, his eyes lit up, and he bowed and said: "I have heard the prestige of Ling Ancestor for a long time, and I am fortunate to see his descendants today." ”

Later, he introduced Sun Jian's four generals to Cao Cao, and when he returned to the banquet, Cao Cao also introduced Liu Bei to Zhu Jun.

The next day, Cao Cao sent out the cavalry, with a team of 500 people, with Nanyang as the center, galloping in four directions, and began to clean up the Yellow Turban stragglers along the way. Cao Cao led the army, hoisted the banner of Zhu Jun, and marched all the way to Nanyang, in order to confuse Zhao Hong and Han Zhong in Nanyang City, he specially used the method of reducing burning during the march to give Zhao Hong and Han Zhong a wrong guidance: Zhu Jun had no soldiers and no generals, and was bluffing.

On the way, Zhu Jun was still frightened by Cao Cao's scheme, not to mention Zhao Hong and Han Zhong, even if he didn't have enough information, he would definitely get into it. "The afterlife is terrifying!" Zhu Jun sighed.

Zhao Hong and Han Zhong were originally just a small peasant, illiterate, if they were not instigated by Zhang Jiao, it is estimated that they would be at the bottom for the rest of their lives, and they would be bullied by the landlords. Such a small person, how far can he see with his eyes, is that when Cao Cao's plan was just used, it had already begun to take effect.

After the two discussed, they sent ordinary soldiers in the city to various places, determined to defend to the death, and prepared to use many wars to consume Zhu Jun's troops. The two had a good idea, but things didn't go as they imagined.

There are such fierce generals as Sun Jian and Zhang Fei in the army of officers and soldiers, and only the county town defended by the Yellow Turban soldiers can withstand it, Kunyang, Luyang, Wuyin, Duyang, Pheasant County, Bowang and other places, which were continuously broken by Cao Cao and his troops, and the army attacked all the way to Nanyang City.

The Nanyang wall is high and the city is big, and there are still more than 100,000 of the most elite Yellow Turban soldiers in the city, although Zhao Hong and Han Zhong were surprised, they were not very afraid, relying on the city, they could not break through Nanyang if they wanted to come.

On this day, Zhao Hong and Han Zhong discussed: "Now that we have been facing each other for two days, the officers and soldiers have not seen the siege of the city, although our soldiers are also elite, but the morale is not high, the officers and soldiers have not besieged the city for a day, and the morale will drop by one point, and it is not a long-term solution to stay in the lonely city!" ”

Han Zhong thought for a while and said, "Let's send someone out to call the battle, no matter if we win or lose, we have to fight a few battles." Zhao Hong nodded in agreement, and the two went to pack up their soldiers and horses, and selected 20,000 elite soldiers, Zhao Hong led the troops, and Han Zhong defended the city.

Outside Nanyang City, the official army camp, Cao Cao was also a headache for the Yellow Turban soldiers in the city at this time, although the official army was brave, all the way down, but there were only more than 20,000 people left, and then the Yellow Turban did not dare to go out of the city, but the official army could not attack Nanyang, so it had to be so deadlocked. When he heard the yellow scarf call for battle, Cao Cao was completely sluggish, this was really what he wanted to do, and after a long time, Cao Cao reacted and hurriedly ordered the drum to send troops.

The two armies faced each other, and Zhao Hong drove forward immediately and shouted: "Zhu Jun'er, don't you suffer enough defeat to dare to lead the troops to come, come out and die quickly." ”

Zhu Jun was so angry that he was about to step forward, but was stopped by Cao Cao, "Why should you be angry with a husband, how long can such a person who ignores current affairs live." Then he opened his mouth and asked, "Who can take this thief with me?" ”

"The last will go!" Everyone looked, but it was Sun Jian, and when Sun Jian's general Huang Gai saw it, he said loudly: "Such a thief, why use the lord to go in person, and wait for the villain to capture him." After that, he rode his horse and rushed to Zhao Hong: "Lingling Huanggai is here, and the anti-thief Zhao Hong has not dismounted and been captured." ”

Behind Zhao Hong, a flying horse rushed out, "Wu Na dog official, how dare you call the general of my family, watch me Li behead your dog." ”

Li Da rode to Huang Gai's side, raised the big knife in his hand and cut it down, and Huang Gai made an iron whip, ignoring the big knife cut by Li Da, and whipped at Li Da. Li Da saw that his face changed greatly, if he didn't dodge or parry, he must have died under the whip first, and hurriedly blocked it with a knife, the whip is a soft weapon, only to see the tail of the Huang Gai whip turned, straight on Li Da's shoulder, "snap ......" The big knife fell to the ground, Li Da mistakenly wanted to return to the battle, but was caught up by Huang Gai, and a whip was slashed on the head, ** burst and died.

Huang Gai laughed, "Zhao Hong'er, sending such characters to fight is just a matter of death, and you will eat a certain whip." With that, his legs clamped the horse's belly and went straight to Zhao Hong.

Zhao Hong was furious when he heard this: "Arrogance, eat grandpa's stick." Zhao Hong shouted, raised the mace in his hand and rushed towards Huang Gai, the sticks and whips intersected, but Huang Gai suffered from the weapon, and blood began to drip from the corners of his mouth. can be pushed by the yellow turbans as the leader, Zhao Hong is also quite brave, but he has not learned martial arts, and the mace is waving wildly, which looks disorganized. Huang Gai suffered a small loss, how could he be willing to collide with Zhao Hong, constantly whipping Zhao Hong, and the whip tail was tricky. For a while, the scene was extremely weird, the two danced wildly, but the weapons did not touch each other, and in the blink of an eye, they fought thirty or forty times, regardless of victory or defeat.

In the formation, Sun Jian and several people knew Huang Gai's ability, and they were not afraid of his losses, Chen Zhi was young, although his strength was extraordinary, but his temperament was not calm, seeing that Huang Gai could not take Zhao Hong, he was anxious and asked Liu Bei for his life. After Liu Bei ordered him to ask Cao Cao, Chen Zhi flew out on a flying horse: "Runan Chen is here, and the thief looks at the gun." ”

In the Yellow Turban Formation, when he saw another general rushing out of the official army, he couldn't help but scold shamelessly. A yellow scarf general rushed out, and when he saw Chen Zhi was young and had a pink face, he couldn't help but laugh and said: "What a handsome little brother, come on, come on, play a few tricks with grandpa first." ”

Chen Zhi laughed angrily when he heard this: "What a guy who doesn't know whether he lives or dies, let someone give you a ride." After that, he stopped rushing towards Zhao Hong, deflected the horse's head, and shot at the general.

Soon, a "bang ......" sounded, and everyone looked and saw Chen Zhi galloping in front of the battle, and the yellow turban general who had just spoken had been picked off his horse by Chen Zhi with a shot, turned over, and was silent again.

Seeing this distraction, Zhao Hong was swept to the shoulder by Huang Gai's iron whip, and with one hand, he threw the mace in his hand at Huang Gai, turned around and fled back to his own formation. Cao Cao saw that he hurriedly ordered the whole army to attack, Zhao Hongbu was very close to the city wall, and he had returned to the city in a short time, and the bow and arrow on the city wall were shot down, blocking the official army. In desperation, Cao Cao had no choice but to order the retreat.
