Chapter 535 - The Focus of the Battlefield

In July of the 25th year of Jian'an, Xu Huang, a famous general of the Han Dynasty, suddenly sent troops to Shangyong, intending to directly destroy the embankment in the upper reaches of the Han River, so as to flood Jingzhou to "relieve the difficulty" of Guan Yu.

However, the destiny of heaven was innocent, and he was stopped by Zhu Ling in the middle of the march!

And both sides didn't want to talk nonsense, just in this mountain road, a big war broke out directly, although Xu Huang is now quite famous in Xichuan, under Liu Xie's command and even in the world, he is a veteran, a general, and even a famous general!

But he has not really entered the battlefield of this world for so many years!

And this time he finally had a chance, and he also met a Zhu Ling who was waiting for work.

His person was originally a general under Yuan Shao, and he was not unqualified to impact the existence of the five good generals in history, and now the two sides met here.

Xu Huang, who was running all the way, was indeed a little unable to show at this time.

After a big battle, although Xu Huang has good ability, his soldiers and horses seem to be lacking in strength.

After several kills, he failed to break through Zhu Ling's defense, so naturally he couldn't complete his task.

Fortunately, he was quite strategic, and after finding that it was difficult to break through, he immediately pretended to be defeated and retreated, as if he wanted to lure Zhu Ling into the pursuit.

Xu Huang originally thought that this Zhu Lingnai was returning to the battlefield again, and he definitely wanted to show his ability.

But what surprised him was that he had already begun to pretend that he was powerless to evacuate, but Zhu Ling, who was supposed to be chasing and killing behind, did not move at this time and didn't give him this chance at all.

After Xu Huang found out that his plan had failed, he could only sigh helplessly.

And then use the trick again!

On the one hand, he asked his soldiers and horses to put up more flags, pretending to be defeated and retreating, and continued to tempt Zhu Ling, hoping that Zhu Ling could take the bait.

On the other hand, he directly led some soldiers and horses to bypass Zhu Ling and break through from another direction.

And this technique is not very clever, it was also discovered by Zhu Ling, this time he directly used an ambush to personally drive back Xu Huang who rushed over.

This time, Zhu Ling didn't plan to give up on the other party, and directly followed all the way to kill Xu Huang.

Until.... He saw Xu Huang's ambush soldiers on the Two Mountains Road!

Arrows flew in, and ambushes abounded.... Xu Huang, who killed three birds with one stone, finally gave Zhu Ling a "surprise" at this time.

But it's a pity that Xu Huang's ability is not bad, but this time he still failed... Zhu Ling is no longer under him now.

"Hey!"

When the ambush appeared, Zhu Ling did not have the panic and fear he imagined, he just looked at all this in front of him very indifferently.

Then he used a sigh to express his inner emotions that he didn't know.

"Evacuate! Ben will personally cut off the queen. ”

Looking at the soldiers who were already getting more and more flustered, Zhu Ling did not hesitate for a moment, and immediately chose to evacuate, and at the same time personally led the soldiers and horses to break the rear.

By Zhu Ling's side, the sword and shield hands who had already prepared for a long time directly crowded in front of him, and then escorted the many soldiers and horses behind Zhu Ling to leave...

In the end, he escorted Zhu Ling away, and fought to the death with Xu Huang, who rushed up again.

Looking at Zhu Ling's department, which was slowly retreating, although there was damage but it was not serious, Xu Huang also understood that Zhu Ling was probably not as simple as he looked.

After so many years of precipitation, this old guy has finally grown a little, and now this soldier is becoming more and more calm.

But for Xu Huang now, even so, it's not enough!

He has to speed up, and the fight with Zhu Ling here can't be satisfied with Xu Huang's heart, and after you chase me everywhere, Xu Huang didn't slow down his pace.

The weather is now in mid-to-late July.

The rain began to increase and the rainy season was about to reach its climax.

If he hadn't destroyed the embankment as soon as possible, in a few days, at the peak of the rainy season, even if he had found it at that time, it would have been too late...

Xu Huang didn't hesitate anymore when he thought of this, and hurriedly rushed towards the set goal, and this time... He did really lose.

"Under the command of Duke Wei, Xiahou said that here, the thief will come and die!"

"Under the command of Duke Wei, Hu Zhen is here, and the thief will not leave!"

"Under the command of King Wei, Wang Ling of Taiyuan, I am here to take your head today!"

"Taiyuan Wang Chang ....."

"Boy Cao Zhang, I've been waiting for a long time...."

Just when the general Xu Huang finally saw the location of the embankment, the soldiers and horses of the Cao army that appeared in all directions directly surrounded him.

And this time, it is also Cao Mengde's military training!

The appearance of this group of people really scared Xu Huang a lot.

In this group of people, the young general Xiahou said that he was also an "old" person who participated in the First Nanyang War, and Hu Zhen was an old celebrity who was as famous as Jiang Ji in the Jianghuai land.

There is also Wang Yun's nephew Wang Ling Wang Chang, as well as the rising star in the Wei Wang's mansion, plus Cao Cao's son Cao Zhang...

Which of these people was not a handsome man for a while, and all the old and young gathered and rushed to the army of Zhang Ren.

And at this moment, even if the veteran Xu Huang wanted to break his head, he couldn't understand how he Cao Mengde could arrange his troops like this.

Let Zhu Ling, a famous general who has long been known all over the world, fight him first, and then he will be ambushed by these guys after defeating Zhu Ling...

"Did Cao Mengde calculate that this Zhu Ling can't beat me, a veteran who is not famous at the slightest bit around His Majesty, or do you think these guys are better than that Zhu Ling... Damn it! ”

An ambush made Xu Huang, who had just relaxed, have to retreat temporarily, and this time he didn't have any ambush backhand, so he could only retreat and retreat.... In the end, he directly returned to Shangyong City, an important town in the land of mediocrity!

And he hasn't passed it by himself, and he's still forced to get over it.

If it weren't for Zhao Rong, who is now stationed in Shangyong, to send troops and horses to support and pick it up in time, then Xu Huang's head would probably appear on Cao Mengde's desk in the next moment...

This feeling really gave Xu Huang a headache.

And the most unacceptable thing for Xu Huang, who is the general next to Liu Xie, is that when he asked why Zhao Rong appeared, the result was.

"Before, after the Zhuge military division conquered the Wuguan, he asked people to give us an order and let me wait to prepare.

If General Xu Huang really sent troops from Yizhou, he would definitely not stop it, but he needed to start gathering soldiers, horses, food and grass immediately, and go to the rescue at a critical moment. ”

“..... Rescue? Xu Huang looked at Zhao Rong in front of him, and then looked at the fierce and vicious generals Cao Jun opposite him, and finally his lips squirmed for a long time, and he still didn't say a word.

He suddenly wanted to go back to Xichuan, or go to Chang'an, here... These damn guys, they don't take him personally...

In these days, fighting a war does not rely on the art of war, and all of them rely on fortune-telling, right?

After that, when he goes out on the expedition, does he have to tie that guy Zhou Qun to his side and calculate it for himself?

What the hell is this!

At this time, Xu Huang's anger was useless, and he didn't know whether this was his own failure, or if everything he did was in Zhuge Liang's calculations.

Or was it also calculated by Cao Mengde's strategists?

His chaotic thoughts made him think for a moment that he should just say goodbye to his hometown after this war.

But here he is confused and confused, but on the other side he is excited.

When the news of his defeat and departure came back to Xuchang, Cao Jun was jubilant.

"I'll know later, that Xu Huang is just a vain person.

If he really has the ability, how can he be hidden by that Liu Xie'er for many years?

That is, it is just a blessing in that Xichuan, in the end, it is just a group of frogs at the bottom of the well boasting!

Now that he has seen the handsome man in my generation, he has no way out, since he has returned to Shangyong, let him take a good look at Shangyong.

Watch how we exterminate the traitors and seize Jingzhou! ”

Listening to everyone's wild laughter, Cao Mengde also felt that he could finally laugh out loud at this time, and after this battle, his cloud chief no longer had the power to turn the sky.

Liu Bei was held back by Cao Ren and Zang Ba Zhang Liao, and Guan Yu lost reinforcements, all of which proved his situation... Good!

Even if he Liu Bei has the elite of Jingzhou, what can he do? Now that the forces under Liu Bei's command are not what they used to be, there is enough food and grass, and there are many generals, what can they do?

They were separated from various battlefields, even if the rebellion in the rear did not trigger the consequences they wanted, once they lost Jingzhou and Guan Yu's partial division, even if he wanted a strong man to break his wrist, it would be useless!

Then the rest of the matter, he, Liu Bei, don't think about reopening the situation in this world.

In the end, if they want to survive, Sun Liu will definitely find a way to fight each other, even fight to the death.

Liu Xie'er doesn't have the arms of these two allies, even if there is a lot of grain and grass in Yizhou, dragging him can drag Chang'an to death!

Cao Mengde thinks..... He was finally able to settle down.

When everyone saw Cao Mengde's relief and smile, they also echoed loudly, and even Guo Jia on the side couldn't help but bow his hand to Cao Mengde.

It's just that he is still a little uneasy in his heart.

"It's really that simple... But in this case, it is also a little too much to look down on Liu Bei and these people.

Compared with the battle of Nanyang back then, he was too much worse....

Besides, if this Guan Yu is really just such a means, it seems to be too risky.

Even if he wants to take Yuzhou now, his personality is a little proud.

But since he put his son in Jingzhou, it means that he is sure to take the Jiangdong Army in Jingzhou.

Even if it doesn't work, you can't really transfer all the soldiers and horses, and make it so easy for Jiangdong.

And if that's the case, just use Liu Xie's people to destroy the dam.....

The ploy looks good, and it feels a little unexpected.

But this is not the means of Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong...

Such an important matter, handed over to Liu Xie as an outsider? ”
