After a failed attempt, Cao Ren began to ponder in his heart.

What the hell is next?!

Retreating, that's impossible, it's only a slight setback on your side, and it won't hurt your vitality, if you retreat, it will be a big demoralization thing.

Therefore, Li Dian persuaded him to return to Fancheng's suggestion, but Cao Ren refused without thinking.

After some observation, Cao Ren also understood that the soldiers on the opposite side were not "farmers" holding bamboo poles, but a group of well-trained elite soldiers.

If that's the case...... Then come, who's afraid of whom.

Cao Ren also has his own pride, and the reason why he dared to take 5,000 soldiers to attack the fortified Fancheng was also because he trained an army with multiple arms to cooperate in combat.

Cao Ren called the formation of the army under his command the "Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation".

Let this "Eight Golden Lock Array" teach Liu Bei to be a man today.

Cao Ren waved his hand, and his sergeants began to change formations.

Cao Ren's "Eight Gates Golden Lock Array" is not as mysterious and mysterious as it is written in the romance, what is divided into eight doors or something. It's not as stupid as the TV series, a group of soldiers holding flags and going around in circles...... The so-called "Eight Gates Golden Lock Array" is actually just a coordinated operation of various arms.

The formation is divided into eight parts, and the soldiers of each part are holding different weapons, and then with the change of formation, the enemy who breaks into this military formation will form a numerical disadvantage in a short period of time, plus the change of weapons, one second you are still facing pikemen, and the next second may be a short soldier in hand-to-hand combat, so switch back and forth, and people who do not have enough experience in dealing with the battlefield will be killed.

Cao Ren felt that his "Eight Gates Golden Lock Array" was very remarkable, and no one else could understand it, but in fact, it was just bullying the few people who had really read military books in those years.

There are three people in Liu Bei's array who can understand.

Xu Shu, Zhang Xi, Zhang Fei.

Because Cao Ren's "Eight Gates Golden Lock Array" is the same as the one described in the "Soldier's Chapter", it's just that Cao Ren has some of his own understanding and application.

People who don't understand it at the beginning can easily fall in and not be able to get out, but once they understand it...... Even Zhang Fei knows how to break it.

However, Zhang Fei is not the kind of person with low emotional intelligence, and the timing is a little late, so he simply asked Xu Dajun to pretend to be forced.

I saw that Xu Dajun smiled slightly and called Zhao Yunlai....... After that, things are exactly the same as in the romance.

Cao Ren's Eight Gates Golden Lock Array was completely broken by Zhao Yun in accordance with Xu Shu's request.

With infantry against Zhao Yun's rangers, although the Cao army had a large number, the arms were too powerful, and they were seen through the formation operation doorway, Zhao Yun directly cut the stiff place where Cao Ren's formation was running as soon as he entered the formation, and turned the formation that should have more people to deal with fewer people into fighting separately.

As a result, Cao Renjun's infantry suffered heavy casualties.

Cao Ren was also angry to death, but he did not lose his cool in the end.

Thinking that his position had been cracked by the enemy, but he couldn't crack the enemy's elite formation, and if he continued to fight like this, he would only lose his own troops, so he hurriedly collected his troops and packed up the remnants of the army and returned to the camp.

But forced by his own face problem, Cao Ren once again rejected Li Dian's suggestion to withdraw from the army, and decided to make the last struggle - to rob the camp tonight.

Again, because of the problem of night blindness, the night movement of the army in these years is a very dangerous thing.

Cao Ren's soldiers don't know how much meat they eat on weekdays, so that the soldiers are strong and can see at night...... He didn't believe that Liu Beijun's people could do the same.

It is true that Liu Beijun can't do everyone with night vision, but in Zhang Fei's battalion, there are still many people who can see things clearly.

Again, Xu Shu is not a fool, can he still guess that Cao Ren is unwilling to give up?!

Even if Xu Shu can't guess it, can Zhang Xi still not know...... "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" has been watched so many times in vain.

Cao Ren wanted to rob the camp, relying on his army to be able to see at night, but he didn't expect that his little tricks were completely well calculated.

There are few people on Liu Beijun's side who can see at night, but Liu Beijun has been prepared for a long time.

Let the people in, close the door, a little torch, and shoot arrows...... You can see what, it doesn't take long to lose this thing.

Cao Ren made a disgraced face again, and finally relied on the soldiers to fight out, and before he returned to the camp, he saw the flames in his own camp, and he was shocked, knowing that this was Liu Bei's sneak attack on his camp.

Okay, I couldn't sneak attack myself, but I was attacked by someone...... What else can I do, run away.

As long as you run out, gather the remnants of the army, and then go north to join the army led by Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang, it is not without the strength of a battle.

But what Cao Ren could think of, Xu Shu couldn't think of, and let him run to Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang so easily?!

Therefore, Cao Ren ran all the way, which was called a frightened person.

finally ran out for a while, Cao Ren just wanted to collect the defeated soldiers, but was intercepted by Zhao Yun and attacked suddenly.

Cao Ren led his soldiers to fight, but found that his soldiers had not yet come out of the shadow of defeat, and their morale was low, and they had no intention of fighting.

As soon as Cao Ren found that he couldn't beat Zhao Yun, he didn't love fighting, so he turned around and left.

finally got rid of Zhao Yun's pursuit, and before Cao Ren could recover his breath, he met Zhang Fei again.

And this time it was even worse, Zhang Fei took his own subordinates, the power of the high-imitation version of the Mandarin Duck Array, it could simply exert 200% power in the chaotic battle, and the soldiers who killed Cao Ren scattered and fled.

Cao Ren saw that this was not a problem, and if he didn't run, he didn't say anything to collect the remnants of the army, and he didn't know that his life would be explained here, so he hurriedly left his soldiers and fled.

And finally got rid of Zhang Fei, and when he was exhausted, he ran into Kou Feng again...... Kou Feng screamed happily, and this Erha even thought of his majesty of capturing Cao Ren, the general of the Cao army.

Cao Ren didn't look at who the person was at this time, let alone think about what to meet Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang, but didn't dare to turn around and run away, under the cover of his own soldiers, he hurriedly crossed the river in the middle of the night and returned to the north bank of the Han River.

After retreating to the north bank of the Han River, Cao Ren had time to gather his men and horses, but only ran back with less than a thousand people.

Cao Renqi's direct leader retreated to Wancheng.

They all retreated to the north bank, and then crossed the river again to find Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang, so it was better to return directly to Wancheng to the near point.

Fan Cheng didn't have to go at all, and if he went, he was attacked on both sides, whether he was attacked by Guan Yu or not, Cao Ren didn't care at all.

Guan Yu's attack on Fancheng was necessary for Liu Bei, and for Cao Ren, he didn't care at all.

After relying on Xu Shu's strategy to kill Cao Ren, Liu Bei was not idle, and directly waved his army north to meet the suspicious soldiers on the north side of Xinye.

And Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang also got the report of Cao Ren's defeat at this time, and knew that Cao Ren had been defeated and retreated to Wancheng, so they would not fight hard with Liu Bei.

Leaving some of the people behind, the two ran faster than rabbits and evacuated the battlefield in an instant.

It's just that I pity the one who stayed behind after the break, the general of this broken army, called Xiahoulan.

Well, our good buddies of Brother Yun, the kind that grew up together since childhood.

Xia Houlan saw Zhao Yun, don't fight, anyway, he has never won since he was a child...... Directly surrendered Liu Bei.

And Liu Bei also followed Zhao Yun's suggestion, and Feng Xiahou Lan became the military supervisor of the whole army.

That is, the chief officer of the Judge Advocate General's Office.

In the future, Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, Zhao Yun, and the junzheng in these three armies will all be under the jurisdiction of Xiahoulan, and Xiahoulan is indeed a person who is proficient in the law and is upright...... Our Brother Yun is not the kind of person who takes the backdoor relationship.

After this battle, Liu Bei was in a good mood and specially held a celebration banquet, except for Guan Yu and Guan Ping's father and son who were far away in Fancheng, everyone else participated in the celebration banquet and drank together to celebrate.

By the way, Liu Bei also had to be rewarded for meritorious deeds, and everyone was rewarded with some loot or something.

After all, Liu Bei is now under the fence, and there is really not much room for people to be promoted, so he can only give more rewards.

Zhang Xi also got the first military merit in his life, and it was not small.

Cao Ren's military camp was burned by his soldiers.

Originally, Zhang Xi didn't want to go, he was really afraid of death.

Although Cao Ren and Li Dian had already led their troops to attack at night at this time, who knows if there are any capable people left behind in the army, in case they encounter that kind of ruthless character, it doesn't matter if they don't complete the task, don't look back and be seen through the strategy, and they will be clicked directly.

But Liu Bei is really no one, so he can't let Liu Bei burn Cao Ren's camp by himself.

If Cao Ren returned to the camp and saw that Liu Bei was burning the camp, then he would still run a fart, and he would come directly to Liu Bei, and killing Liu Bei would be regarded as the limit of counter-killing.

So he can only go to Zhang Xi, because he is not only a soldier Cao Peng, but also a marching Sima, a proper martial artist.

Zhang Xi was worried along the way, but he was finally lucky and did not meet any high-ranking people who stayed in the camp.

Even Zhang Xi falsely claimed that Cao Ren sent back to transfer troops, and the soldiers guarding the camp did not suspect it, because Zhang Xi really showed that he could see at night, and the people in Cao Ren's camp thought that this was the exclusive sign of Cao Ying's soldiers.

As soon as the camp gate opened, Zhang Xi did not hesitate to call the soldiers in the army to go in and set fire, while he left a few soldiers to protect himself, and waited until the fire was almost up, and then led the soldiers to retreat quickly.

Although there were surprises along the way, he finally completed the task without danger and received a military merit.

In the future, we will be regarded as people with military merits, if we continue to accumulate, we will have a day of feudalism.

After all, in the Han Dynasty, there was no marquis without military merits.

Hawkers, it's a bit far.

Liu Bei repelled Cao Ren, and Guan Yu regained Fancheng...... Guan Yu's recovery of Fancheng is not so easy to leave, it depends on what the outcome of the game between Liu Bei and Liu Biao will be in the end.

Liu Bei was happy at this time, and he frequently laughed at the celebration banquet, what was "joy and anger invisible" in the past, but now he can't see it at all.

defeated Cao Ren this time, showing his ability to Liu Bei, and he will be able to speak a little tougher in front of Liu Mian in the future.

Again, Liu Bei finally tasted what it was like to have the help of military advisors.

You don't have to think about the pain in your brain, just listen to what the military advisor has to say and make your own decisions.

Moreover, Xu Shu, a military division, saw through Cao Ren's military formation in a light manner, and reclaimed Fancheng in advance, so that he could completely connect Xinye and Fancheng into a line, and had a certain strategic depth.

Liu Bei has never fought such an easy and worry-free battle in his life.

Of course, there is also Zhang Xi, and Liu Bei also wrote down Zhang Xi's name...... The current combat effectiveness of Corporal Zhang Fei's pawn has been seen by Liu Bei in actual combat.

To put it mildly, if Zhang Xi had helped him train soldiers in Xuzhou, and Xu Shu had helped him come up with ideas, he was afraid of a woolen Lu Bu, so why should he swallow his anger with a slave with three surnames.

Now Liu Bei can't wait to dance the sword on the spot to express his mentality.

And Zhang Xi, suddenly thought of one thing.

Holding a wine glass, Zhang Xi found Xu Shu.

"Brother Yuan...... Brother Yuan is enjoying himself again, but he doesn't know where Lingtang is?! Zhang Xi asked in a low voice.

defeated Cao Ren, according to Romance, Cheng Yu, a guy who lacks morality, is going to take the water and trick Xu Mu into going to Xudu.

Although this matter is inconsistent with historical facts, Zhang Xi has to guard against it.

And Xu Shu smiled and said to Zhang Xi, "How dare you forget your mother?!" As early as when he took refuge in the envoy, he sent someone to Yingchuan to invite his mother to reunite, and now it's almost there! ”

"......" Zhang Xi nodded and said no more.

Well, it seems that nine times out of ten, this matter is based on historical facts.
