When the smoke and dust appeared this time, Rao is Cao Cao and others have experienced a hundred battles, and they are not as calm as before.

Now even the total number of guards is only ten, and if there is a strong enemy, it will not be possible to do it even after the break.

Jia Xu sighed in his heart, thinking that he should have retreated to Lishi City to find Shi Liang Xi, but now that he had fled dozens of miles south, it was impossible to go back, and there was no point in mentioning this matter again.

The most important thing is that this ambush army came from the south to the north, and to the north, there was still the wave of ambush soldiers resisted by Yuan Jian and others, and they could not advance or retreat.

Cao Cao said angrily: "After Gao Gan's death, it has been three years since the annexation of the state, how can I expect that there are still so many thieves in the territory!" ”

Cheng Yu said solemnly: "In this case, it will be cut off by me, the main stallion is fast, and there must be a glimmer of life." ”

Cao Cao shook his head and said: "No, Qing and Lonely, like a fish in water, how can you discard it!" ”

So far, there is only one headlong into the Luliang Mountain to see if there is a glimmer of life.

Xu You was calm, looking at the direction of the enemy, and suddenly said: "Lord, look, that's ......"

The crowd followed his fingers and rejoiced.

I saw that on the banner of the enemy, there was a word "Cao" written on it.

Cao Cao threw his horsewhip on the ground and laughed, "It's a lonely tiger and leopard rider!" The lone tiger and leopard rode to help! ”

At this time, everyone noticed that the cavalry team was lightly armoured, but the momentum was strong, and there was a murderous atmosphere when marching, and the first member of the general was more than thirty years old, with a cold expression, and it was the prime minister military and Lang Cao Chun who led the tiger and leopard to ride!

After Cao Cao decided to go north alone that day, Xiahou Yuan led the knights of the Three Rivers, and Cao Chun led the tigers and leopards to ride, and then also set off to respond.

The march of the army was not as small as Cao Cao's, and the journey was much slower, always behind, among which the Three Rivers Knights were slower than the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, and they were a few days away from Cao Cao.

But even the tiger and leopard rider with the strongest power in the world, after galloping thousands of miles to the south, and thousands of miles to the north, he was already tired, and he was still a day away from Cao Cao and the others.

Therefore, Cao Cao and others never expected that the tiger and leopard ride would appear here.

Cao Chun had also discovered them, and hurriedly beat his horse and accelerated to the river.

In his impression, Cao Cao's clan brother has always been dignified, but this time, Da Xu is not there, Xu Chu is not there, and Cao Cao is only ten people here, which is extremely embarrassing.

Cao Chun turned over and dismounted, and said, "Lord, it's too late to come to the rescue!" ”

Cao Cao hurriedly dismounted, supported him and said, "It's just right, it's just right!" ”

Cao Chun got up, and Cao Cao immediately said, "Zihe, how many people have you brought?" ”

"The number of two battalions."

The number of one battalion is around 1,000 people, and the five battalions are one army.

The tiger and leopard cavalry gathered the elite of Cao Ying, and they were all fierce warriors who were one in a hundred.

The Battle of Chibi was a water battle, but the tiger and leopard cavalry were cavalry, and they did not make any efforts, but in the early stage, they traveled 300 miles in one day and one night, intercepted Liu Bei at Changban Slope in Dangyang, and broke Liu Bei's plan to go south to take over Jiangling, but they made a miraculous achievement.

The entire tiger and leopard cavalry is less than three battalions in total, and Cao Chun brought out the second battalion this time, which can basically be regarded as pouring out of the nest.

Cao Cao was overjoyed and said: "Quickly return to the north and rescue Zhongkang and them!" ”

"Whoa!"

With the tiger and leopard riding behind, Cao Cao and others swept away the malaise and marched north.

On the way, the three major military divisions wanted to ask Cao Chun several times why he came so quickly, but seeing that Cao Cao was preoccupied, Cao Chun was by his side, so he didn't ask.

didn't walk for long, and saw Xu Chu, Yuan Lian, and Du Xi coming over with more than a dozen cavalry, except for Xu Chu, all of whom were injured.

Xu Youqi said: "Zhongkang, has the enemy run away?" ”

Xu Chu and the others were also overjoyed to see the tiger and leopard riding over, and when they talked about what happened just now, the three of them were puzzled.

It turned out that more than 100 enemy horsemen without banners came out of the mountains, and the cavalry leader and Xu Chu made more than a dozen moves against the enemy, sold a flaw, and led the army back to the mountains, as if they were very afraid of them.

Xu Chu touched his head and said: "That enemy defender is really powerful, I fight with him, regardless of victory or defeat, in my opinion, he is not better, well, no worse than Lu Bu." But if it's an infantry fight, I should be able to overwhelm him. ”

The generals were terrified, Lu Bu's invincible reputation in the world was too loud, if others said that Lu Bu was not inferior, everyone might not believe it, but here are all Cao Cao's descendants, knowing that Xu Chu's strength was extraordinary, and Cao Cao and Lu Bu competed for power back then, Xu Chu had seen Lu Bu, and it must be true when he said this.

Cao Cao thought about it and sighed: "It turns out that there is such a fierce general in the world, but I don't know his name. ”

Xu Chu opened his mouth and didn't speak, the other party was going to tell him his name, but he was slashed back by him, and he didn't even ask his name for a long time.

After confirming that Xu Chu and the three of them were all fine, Cao Cao relieved his heart and asked Cao Chun the doubts that he had been holding back for a long time.

"Zihe, yesterday your army was encamped, and it is still nearly a hundred miles away from here, even if you hurry up today, you will definitely not be able to get here, how did you come here."

In fact, he had wanted to ask for a long time, but in the face of the great enemy, he had to keep his composure and pretend that everything was under control.

Cao Chun smiled: "Actually, it wasn't my idea, but someone sent me a letter." ”

"Deliver a letter?"

Everyone is puzzled, the Tiger Guard Camp and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are all Cao Cao's Chinese army, Cao Cao is not there, whose letter can mobilize the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry?

Cao Chun took out a letter from his armor and presented it to Cao Cao, who took it and laughed when he saw it.

"It turned out to be Xiao Wu's handiwork!"

"General Beifu?"

Everyone was surprised, and Cao Chun explained: "The staff of the Northern Mansion found out that there might be a traitor in Luliangshan, so they wrote a letter as soon as possible and sent it to our camp. According to the man, there is a bird named carrier pigeon in Beifu, which can travel nearly thousands of miles in one day and one night, and the carrier pigeon can communicate between big cities, Xiao Wu was sent to Jizhou from Beifu first, and then sent to my camp by fast horse, and I led the army to set off overnight, so that we could catch up in time! ”

Only then did everyone understand the ins and outs.

Xun Yu said: "The staff of the Northern Mansion, when it is Zhuge Kongming, this person has the talent to pass through the heavens and latitudes, and this time he has made meritorious achievements." This is exactly the kind of person the lord needs! ”

For this Zhuge Liang, Cao Cao has long been in love with talents, and when he heard Xun Yu say, he said: "Gongda, go back this time, this talent ......"

He thought about it, shook his head again, and said, "Forget it, Xiao Wu's people are Xiao Wu's people, and no one is allowed to ask for them." ”

Xun You was awe-inspiring in his heart, knowing that he had lost his words, and he would not say anything about snatching people from Beifu from now on.

However, Jia Xu has a new understanding of the energy of General Beifu.

He can understand the ability to send letters to the tiger and leopard riders, but he is puzzled by the ability to make Cao Chun believe in the letters sent by a slave.

Cao Chun is only in his thirties, and his reputation among the Xiahou Cao is not obvious, but he is a person who attaches great importance to military discipline, otherwise it would be impossible for him to lead such an elite as the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.

The north shore killed Dong Xian, and Cao Chun didn't say a word of nonsense in the army, and directly responded to the battle, which shows his character.

However, when it came to the general of Beifu, he believed it without saying a word and came to the camp.

Yuan Jian and Du Xi also realized this, and the two looked at each other and guessed in their hearts.

The tiger and leopard rider who only Cao Cao could command actually listened to Cao Wu's words, which was of great symbolic significance to them.

Cao Cao, who was so suspicious of Liang Xi, the assassin of Bingzhou, did not even show any suspicion of Cao Wu because of this matter, and the relationship between the brothers, as well as Cao Wu's influence on the early generals of Cao Jun, far exceeded their imagination.

Cao Cao was accustomed to this, and he was more concerned about the carrier pigeon that Cao Chun said.

He had heard Cao Wu say this thing, but because it was extremely difficult to raise, it was not successful at the time, and now it seems that it can be used.

"Gongda, remember."

Xun You hurriedly leaned over.

"Carrier pigeons, you can always ask for some, let people go to Beifu to learn the art of breeding, and use it on a large scale in the future, which is beneficial to the three armies!"

Several military advisors nodded frequently, each ashamed that they had forgotten such an important matter because they had guessed the Lord's thoughts.

While everyone was talking, there was smoke and dust in the north, Xun You glanced at Cao Cao quietly, and saw that he was not smiling, so he put his mind at ease.

There were 2,000 tigers and leopards to ride, enough to run amok, and they waited for the smoke and dust to approach, but it turned out that Liang Xi, the assassin of Bingzhou, brought troops to help.

Liang Xi was sweating profusely, and when he saw that the prime minister was fine, he said happily: "Liang Xi is late for rescue, please atone for the prime minister!" ”

Cao Cao never mentioned that he would rather go far away than go to Liang Xi just now, and walked over to help him up like Cao Chun and said: "Don't get in the way, don't get in the way, Liang Gong is brave and loyal, and he is very relieved." ”

There were Xiongnu soldiers and Qiang soldiers who disturbed his territory, and he could not escape the blame, but Cao Cao did not blame him for this, but said that the Hu people did not pay attention to the rules.

The two talked a few words, and Liang Xi saw that Cao Cao really didn't blame, so he put his heart down.

Cao Cao asked Liang Xi to rest, and he also sat on the river, and the generals sat around, talking about the danger just now, they were all wondering who the enemy general was.

After talking for a while, Cao Chun patted his head, took out another letter from his arms, and said, "Lord, there is still a letter here, which is from Xiao Wu." ”

"For the lonely?"

Cao Cao took it, and this was the second time in a few days that he had received a letter from Cao Wu.

The last time he was in Bingzhou Lishi City, Cao Wu just briefly introduced what happened in Xudu City, and Cao Cao was very happy, thinking that Cao Wu had plans to go out of the mountain.

This time, Cao Cao's expression was surprised, and he watched it several times before he was sure that he was not mistaken.

He put down the letter, and when he saw that everyone was looking at him, he sighed: "Hanoi Sima Yin raised the dead and rebelled. ”

"What?"

Hanoi Sima is a big family, Sima Bada's grandfather also served as the Yingchuan Taishou, and his prestige is very high, how could they rebel.

Cao Cao also couldn't believe it, at that time, Cao Wu wanted to move Sima Yi, and he didn't do it in the name of Cao Pi's friendship with Sima Yi, and he still had a good sense of Sima Yi at that time.

Unexpectedly, it didn't take long for Sima Yi's father Sima Fang to really rebel.

What he hates most is the person who repeats.

Cao Chun nodded and said: "The servant in Beifu said that Sima Fang took the opportunity of serving as Jing Zhaoyin to raise three thousand Qiang cavalry dead soldiers, and there will be no mistake in this matter." That's why I believed in him and rushed here. ”

"Qiang, isn't that the person who attacked us just now?"

Xu Chu jumped up.

"I'm afraid so."

Xun You and the military divisions looked at each other, and everyone thought at the same time that this matter would never be so simple.

Xun You asked tentatively, "Then lord, how to deal with this matter?" ”

Cao Cao sneered: "The one who sentenced me, the Yi clan!" ”

So, after sending away Liang Xi, the assassin of Bingzhou, the tiger and leopard rode for a short rest and went straight to Wen County, Hanoi.
