Chapter XXXIV; Change of policy
Not long after Cao Ren led his army forward, he received information from the scouts.
Zhang Liao led the wolf cavalry to rush over, and a stick of incense arrived in about time.
This is still Cao Jun's scouts desperately trying to deliver the news through the letter flag, otherwise, Zhang Liaodu led the wolf to ride, and Cao Ren would not have received the information.
When Cao Ren heard this, he immediately ordered the army to stop.
Then he looked at the battlefield and quickly made a decision.
After all, the situation is now dangerous, and he can't be allowed to continue to delay, otherwise their ten thousand troops will be in danger.
Cao Ren immediately ordered to transfer 1,000 people to support Xiahoudun and Le Jin, while he himself led the remaining 3,000 people to line up on the spot to prevent Zhang Liaowolf from riding on the formation.
On the battlefield, after Zang Ba and others led 3,000 people to initially kill nearly 1,000 Cao troops, the formation of the Cao army gradually stabilized.
Zang Ba, Xu Sheng, Wei Xu and the others were not in a hurry, now that they had dragged Cao Jun, the rest only had to wait for Zhang Liao's army to arrive. In this battle, Cao's army will inevitably lose.
However, Zang Ba and the others were not in a hurry, but Xiahoudun and Le Jin were very impatient.
Le Jin left 2,000 people to guard against the wolf riders who would rush at any time, and he joined the battle, but he was entangled by Xu Sheng, so that he could not break away from half a point.
Le Jin was very anxious in his heart, originally they did not have an advantage in the strength here, plus they were attacked by a sneak attack, losing hundreds of nearly a thousand people, even if they stabilized the formation now, they would not be able to launch a counterattack against Zang Ba and others.
Le Jin looked at Xu Sheng in front of him, and tried his best to kill Xu Sheng here.
Although Xu Sheng is still young, he is also full of fear, Le Jin wants to kill him, and he also wants to capture Le Jin.
"Lejin, now you have nowhere to escape, what is the situation now, you know very well, it is better to surrender directly, why bother to resist."
Although Xu Sheng and Le Jin fought anxiously, they did not stop.
After listening to it, there was no anger in his heart, and he was extremely sober, and at the same time a little frightened.
Xu Sheng in front of him, including Zang Ba who was fighting against Xiahoudun, Le Jin dared to guarantee that when he fought with Lu Bu in Yanzhou, there were absolutely no such two.
It's only been a long time now, and Lu Bu has added two more generals, and this discovery makes Le Jin's heart very heavy.
Xu Sheng saw that Le Jin did not respond, but he also focused and concentrated on fighting with Le Jin.
And Zang Ba on the other side, although he is also on par with Xiahoudun, it seems that this is the only way.
And with the passage of time, Zang Ba began to lose to Xiahoudun for a while, and when Xiahoudun saw this, he increased his offensive against Zang Ba, and Zang Ba was also miserable.
But Zang Ba still dragged Xiahoudun to death.
"Xiahoudun, now you can't run away, don't catch it yet!"
Zang Ba's words seemed to stimulate Xiahoudun, and Xiahoudun's offensive became more and more fierce.
"Lu Bu didn't personally lead the army to come, just by relying on you, you can't get into the eyes of a certain person, and you will die!"
Xiahoudun, who launched an angry attack, regardless of the defense, and attacked with all his might, made Zang Ba almost unable to parry.
Seeing this, Wei Xu on the other side came over to help Zang Ba, and the two dealt with Xiahoudun together, and Xiahoudun looked crazy and was also fearless.
Zang Ba watched Wei Xu arrive, and his heart was anxious.
"You go and lead the army and try to kill the Cao army, if Cao Ren leads the army to come, we will be in danger, you go quickly!"
When Wei Xu heard this, he was a little hesitant.
"If I go, what will I do here?"
After Zang Ba heard this, he laughed.
"If you go, he Xiahoudun wants to kill me, and it's not so easy!
You go quickly, find a way to kill the Cao army formation that is doing some precautions on the side, and when Wen Yuan arrives with the army, he can also drive straight in. ”
Xiahoudun listened to the words of the two, and his heart was furious, these two people didn't seem to take him in their eyes.
"But all of them are defeated, today, none of you want to leave!"
Xiahoudun killed Wei Xu, intending to kill Wei Xu first, and then fight Zang Ba, because Xiahoudun knew that Wei Xu's strength was not as strong as Zang Ba, and it was easier to kill some.
Seeing this, Zang Ba on the side immediately caught Xiahoudun's blow.
"Xiahoudun, the two of us haven't finished the battle yet, let's continue to fight!"
Wei Xu immediately withdrew from the battle circle, and when Xiahou saw this, he had to vent all his anger on Zang Ba.
Zang Ba gritted his teeth and struggled to support, he only hoped that Zhang Liao could come soon, otherwise, he would really have to die here today.
After Wei Xu withdrew, he immediately led a thousand people to arrange for Le Jin to kill Zhang Liao's 2,000 people.
And Sun Guan and Chang Feng also constantly led the army to break through the defense line of the Cao army and harvest the lives of the Cao army.
When Le Jin saw Wei Xu's movements, he slashed horizontally, pushed Xu Sheng away hard, and was about to go to stop Wei Xu, but Xu Sheng rushed up again, quickly slashed the rushing Cao Jun, and rushed towards Le Jin again.
Le Jin had no choice but to fight Xu Sheng again.
Under the impact of Wei Xu, Sun Guan, and Chang Xuan, the formation of Cao Jun was broken again, as if it was a rout.
Fortunately, the arrival of a thousand troops sent by Cao Ren was able to stop the rout and begin to regain the formation again.
Wei Xu led a thousand people and went straight to the two thousand troops left by Lejin, and when the Cao army saw this, he had to send a thousand people to meet Wei Xu.
Cao Ren commanded the deployment of the army, and looked at the situation on the battlefield, his heart was very heavy.
Cao Ren dared to say that if Zhang Liao had not attacked like this, with the people he left, Zhang Liao would have been defeated in a frontal battle.
However, it was precisely because of the attack that Xiahoudun and Le Jin suffered heavy losses for a while, and they had to leave some people to guard against wolf riding, so they had the current situation.
In Cao Ren's heart, he only hoped that Cao Cao's reinforcements could arrive as soon as possible, otherwise, they would be really dangerous.
Cao Ren also didn't think about evacuating. But now that Xiahoudun and Le Jin are all entangled, even if he evacuates alone, he will be pursued by the wolf rider.
Without a military formation, a cavalry charge against them, once formed, was a massacre.
Even if Cao Ren knew that Zhang Liao would not chase deeply, he couldn't stop the cavalry from stepping on the formation for such a stretch of road.
And Xiahoudun and Le Jin are still here, and he has no way to escape alone.
In Cao Ren's view, now the only way to block Zhang Liao's attack is to wait for reinforcements to arrive, and then he can defeat Zhang Liao.
And he stayed here, not only to guard against Zhang Liao, but also because Xiahoudun and Le Jin were really unable to support, and when they evacuated, he could not only respond here, but also become a line of defense again.
Zhang Liao on the other side was charging at full speed with the wolf horseman, and he was about to reach the battlefield, but there was information coming.
Cao Ren did not join the battlefield, but led the army to form a military formation.
Similarly, on the battlefield, there are also Cao troops guarding against their wolf riders.
After Zhang Liao knew, he quickly looked at Song Xian.
"Song Xian, later you lead two thousand wolf horsemen, rush into the battlefield, and kill Cao Jun.
I led a thousand wolf horsemen to march against that Cao Ren! ”
