Soon after Xiahoudun led the army into the plain, he spotted a large army in the distance blocking their path, and immediately ordered the army to stop its advance.

"What does Zhang Liao mean by this, he didn't defend the city, could it be that there was fraud in it?"

Xiahoudun was very puzzled in his heart.

Zhang Liao knew that he was determined to win Runan, but he actually led the army out of the city? This doesn't make sense!

Most likely, there are traps waiting for him to jump into.

Cao Chun rode his horse and stood up, looked at the army that had already formed in the distance, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said:

"Looking at the scale of the enemy's army, it is far more than the 5,000 people guarding Runan, it should be Lu Bu who sent troops from Danyang County to reinforce it.

If I guessed correctly, the reason why Zhang Liao went out of the city was because he was afraid that we would not be able to attack the city and retreat.

What a big appetite he must! He wanted to annihilate us in one battle, and he did it in one battle! ”

"Ignorant child, so arrogant!" Xiahoudun snorted coldly, and didn't take Zhang Liao in his eyes, "I don't know if Lu Bu is here or not, if he comes, I will definitely cut off his head." ”

Cao Chun rode on horseback and looked around, looking for a place where he could hide his troops.

"Yuan Rang, Zhang Liao went out of the city to fight, I thought there was fraud in it, don't be careless about the enemy."

Xiahoudun nodded and agreed, "Zihe, are we fighting or withdrawing now?" ”

Although he was the commander of the attack on Runan this time, Cao Chun only rode over with a tiger and leopard to support him halfway.

But he admired Cao Chun's military talent very much, so he was willing to listen to his opinion.

"Why not fight?"

Cao Chun clenched the reins, a cold light flashing in his eyes, "I brought five hundred tigers and leopards to support you, and this place is a plain, just right for cavalry to charge!" ”

"Besides, we have to take Runan County, so why should we avoid war?"

"Taking this opportunity, I also want to see if Gao Shun's trapped camp can withstand the charge of my tiger and leopard rider!"

If it was a different place, Cao Chun really didn't dare to rush into battle.

But this place is a plain, and there are tigers and leopards riding in his hands, so he has no reason to be afraid.

What's more, Cao Cao issued a death order to take Runan at any cost.

Runan and Yuzhou are adjacent to each other, and if they can take this place, they can attack and retreat and defend, which is extremely critical to the overall situation of encroaching on Yangzhou.

"The son and the tiger and leopard riders are all sharp in the world, or they will be made up for by a hundred people. Can it be compared to the trapped camp? ”

Xiahoudun said, agreeing with Cao Chun's opinion.

"I led the army in front, and Zihe waited for an opportunity to dispatch in the rear."

The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry is a heavy cavalry, and all men and horses are heavily armoured.

In this kind of plain battlefield, it is an invincible existence!

Five hundred tigers and leopards, as long as they enter the field at the right time, can completely chisel through the military formation of thousands or even tens of thousands of people, and lay the foundation for the victory of a war!

"Yuan let me go with confidence!" Cao Chun nodded heavily, with a fierce battle intent in his eyes, "If Lu Bu comes, I will resist his Bingzhou Iron Cavalry together!" ”

He had already heard that Lu Bu not only had a trapped camp under his command, but also a thousand iron cavalry of the state, which specially rushed to kill the enemy with Lu Bu, and captured the flag among the ten thousand troops, which can be described as invincible.

I don't know which one is stronger compared to his tiger and leopard ride?

……

Zhang Liao saw that Xiahoudun's army had changed its formation, and continued to move forward, killing towards his own side, and made various arrangements and commands as soon as possible.

The big war broke out, and before the two sides had even come into close contact, they each shot several rounds of arrows.

The decisive battle on the plain, without any fancy, is the collision of the strength of the two armies, and it is the simplest and most direct fighting melee!

The competition is whose equipment is better, whose generals are braver, and whose soldiers are more elite and not afraid of death!

"Formation ——!"

Gao Shun led the 700 trapping camp to the front of the army, and collided with the oncoming Cao army!

Then a shocking scene appeared, under the onslaught of the enemy army several times their size, the phalanx that had fallen into the camp was not dispersed.

It's like a reef in a turbulent river, blocking the footsteps of Cao's army's attack!

After all, there are only 700 people in the trapped camp, and they can't resist the entire battle line, so while dividing the Cao army's formation, they also let themselves fall into the encirclement of the Cao army, just like the name of the trapped camp!

The ambition of the battle, there is death and no life!

The soldiers of the 700 trapping camp are all elites of a hundred battles, even if they are surrounded by Cao troops, their formation is not chaotic at all.

"Kill ——!"

The trapping camp at the forefront was really invincible, and a large number of enemies were killed in an instant.

They advanced and retreated in an orderly manner, cooperated tacitly, and the seven hundred people were like one under the command of Gao Shun!

Swing your sword and kill the enemy.

Swing your sword and kill the enemy.

They methodically and even calmly repeat the action of swinging their swords to kill the enemy.

That's right, it's just to take it in stride.

It is hard to imagine that an army can be described on the battlefield in the words "unhurried".

Elite soldiers, sophisticated armor and weapons, combined with generals who can command them like arms, the burst of combat effectiveness is extremely amazing!

Gao Shun led 700 traps in the enemy camp and wantonly slaughtered Cao's army, which was really invincible!

"Is this a trap? Sure enough, it lives up to its name! ”

After seeing the dominance of the trapped camp on the battlefield with his own eyes, Xiahoudun suddenly showed a look of shock.

"All the soldiers, follow the generals to rush and kill, and annihilate the trapped camp!"

Xiahoudun roared angrily and personally led a cavalry to charge the trapped camp.

The cavalry is already restrained by the infantry, and even the elite hoplites like the trap camp can use the car to hang the formation to consume them alive and dead!

The mobility of the cavalry is completely incomparable to that of the infantry, and Xiahoudun led a strange army to circulate around the outside of the trapping camp, looking for flaws and then attacking.

This is exactly the usual tactic of cavalry against infantry.

The trapping camp is obviously not an ordinary infantry, and Gao Shun is an experienced general.

After identifying Xiahoudun's strategy, he immediately ordered the formation to be contracted.

At the same time, Zhang Liao saw Cao Jun Daxu rushing towards Gao Shun's trapped camp, and immediately asked the standard-bearer to play the flag.

"The enemy general has moved, and the general should be dispatched!"

On a hill outside the battlefield.

When Lu Bu saw the flag, he waved his halberd and roared at the Bingzhou wolf rider behind him: "Rush into battle with Ben!" Defeat Cao's army and kill Xiahoudun! Kill ——! ”

"Kill ——!"

A thousand wolf riders followed behind Lu Bu and roared out like thunder!

Lu Bu's best tactics are charging and slashing.

As he and the Bingzhou wolf cavalry joined the battlefield, Cao's flank was suddenly chiseled.

After breaking up the Cao army's camp, Lu Bu descended like a demon god and rushed to kill in the enemy's formation.

The Fang Tian painting halberd, which the ordinary strong man struggled to pick up, seemed to have no weight in his hand.

He was like entering a no-man's land, and every time he waved Fang Tian's halberd, he could take away a group of Cao Jun soldiers.

Stumps and severed arms were splashed everywhere, and the scene was extremely bloody.

The terrifying and shocking aesthetics of violence are perfectly displayed on this battlefield!

On the battlefield, the bravery of the generals can drive the morale of the whole army.

Lu Bu killed people like mowing grass, which made Cao Jun frightened, and the morale of his own army soared!

"Xiahoudun!"

In the chaotic battlefield, Lu Bu finally saw where Xiahou Dun's Daxu was, and immediately grinned and rushed over!

His mission on the battlefield is to kill the main generals of the enemy army, and kill as many generals as possible.

The Cao army was leaderless and finally fell into defeat.

Xiahoudun noticed Lu Bu who was rushing towards him, and instantly knew his intentions, and immediately became furious!

"Lu Bu child! I can't kill it! ”

He is also a peerless fierce general, how can he tolerate Lu Bu treating him as a prey that can be slaughtered wantonly?

Without hesitation, he raised his spear and killed Lu Bu.

"I can't help myself!"

When Lu Bu saw Xiahoudun rushing over, he was very disdainful.

In his opinion, this person's martial arts are just acceptable.

At most fifty rounds, you will be able to slash it under your horse.

Suddenly, and the state wolf rider and Xiahoudun's iron rider staggered!

The sword light and sword shadow, the iron armor is sonorous!

Lu Bu also fought with Xiahoudun to one place!

Xiahoudun's force was quite good, but as soon as he fought with Lu Bu, he fell directly behind.

"Why are these three slaves so brave?!"

After more than a dozen rounds, Xiahoudun was horrified and did not dare to continue to fight with Lu Bu.

If you love to fight, you will definitely be beheaded!

After struggling to block Lu Bu's halberd, Xiahoudun rode away under the cover of eight personal guards.

"The traitor is gone!"

Lu Bu was greatly annoyed when he saw Xiahoudun fleeing from the battle.

Immediately turned the horse's head, and led the state iron cavalry to pursue.

At this moment, he suddenly felt the earth tremble faintly.

When I looked up, my eyes were straight.

I saw that on the right side of the battlefield, there was a cavalry of hundreds of Miao Miao rushing towards the battlefield.

These cavalrymen were heavily armoured, and even the horses under their crotches were also clothed in battle armor.

There were clearly only about 500 people, but the power of the rush made the earth shake, as if the sky was falling apart.

"Haw Par Rides !!"

Lu Bu recognized the roots of the army in front of him at a glance, and his heart was extremely red!

Before seeing the tiger and leopard riding, he was still lucky, thinking that his iron horse would not be worse than the tiger and leopard riding.

Now this idea has been directly dispelled.

There are about 500 horsemen, and the men and horses are all wearing heavy armor, how can Cao Thief be so rich!

"Three family slaves, take your life!"

In an instant, Cao Chun led the tiger and leopard to the battlefield.

There seemed to be a flame burning in his eyes, and he went straight to Lu Bu.

Lu Bu wanted to behead Xiahoudun, and his purpose was also to behead the enemy's commander.

"Trapped, Mi!"

Gao Shun roared and ordered to trap the camp to resist the charge of the tiger and leopard riders.

The tiger and leopard rode and charged, and the sound was terrifying.

If the trapped camp does not rise to the top, the army will definitely suffer heavy losses.

Maybe one charge will kill thousands of people.

Seven hundred against five hundred, trapped camp against tiger and leopard riding.

Originally, Cao Jun, who faced several times his size on the battlefield, had different camps, but this time he was scattered in formation.

"Kill ——!"

Cao Chun, who chiseled through the formation of the trapped camp, now only wants to take Lu Bu's head!

"Look for death!"

Seeing Cao Chun, who was coming straight to him, Lu Bu was furious, and Fang Tian's halberd slashed over.

"Qiang ——!"

The guns and halberds intersected, bursting into dazzling fire.

Cao Chun's tiger mouth instantly cracked, blood flowed out, and his arms were numb, and he could barely hold the weapon!

"It's so strong!"

After only one wrong fight, Cao Chun realized that he was not Lu Bu's opponent at all!

"Zihe, retreat!"

Xiahoudun, who was in the distance, saw that the tiger and leopard cavalry only chiseled through the military formation of the fallen camp, but did not cause the imaginary one-sided massacre, and immediately asked Cao Chun to retreat.

The role of heavy cavalry is to charge into battle, the kind that rushes directly out of the battlefield.

If he didn't succeed once, it would be impossible for Cao Chun to continue to kill Lu Bu with the might of the tiger and leopard cavalry.

On the contrary, there is a risk of being beheaded by Lu Bu.

Xiahou was startled when he saw that Cao Chun's tiger mouth was cracked and full of blood.

"Lu Bu is so brave, he actually made my mouth crack with one blow!" Cao Chuntie's face was blue, the hand holding the gun was still trembling slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "There is no match in the world, and it deserves its name." With Lu Bu and the trap camp here, we are afraid that it will be difficult for us to win this battle. ”

Xiahoudun's face turned blue and white for a while, and the tiger and leopard riding with high hopes did not bear fruit!

Seeing that Lu Bu was covered in blood and killed like a demon god, his own army was a little scattered, so he could only order the withdrawal of the army.

Not far away, Lu Bu heard the sound of gold coming from Cao Jun, where would he let them go?

"Gutsless rats!"

The decapitation tactic failed, and he could not accept it.

He can't annihilate Cao Jun, and he can't leave the tiger and leopard ride that makes him red-eyed, and he can't accept it.

He immediately shouted, "Fetch a bow and arrow!" ”

The guards on the side hurriedly took down the bows and arrows placed next to their horses and handed them over.

Lu Bu bent his bow and arrows and aimed them at Xiahoudun.

Cao Chun was wearing heavy armor, he couldn't kill Cao Chun with this arrow, but he was confident that he could shoot Xiahoudun to death!

The fingers loosened slightly, and the arrow suddenly flew towards Xiahoudun like a meteor!

Xiahoudun, who was retreating, suddenly felt a burst of panic and tightness, and when he turned his head, a feather arrow flew straight towards the door in front of him!

Xiahoudun was shocked, and subconsciously reached out to grab it, but he really caught the arrow.

However, the speed of the feather arrow was too fast, and the force contained in it was too strong, and although he was lucky enough to catch the arrow, the arrow still disappeared into his left eye!

"Ah——!h

Xiahoudun let out a scream of pain and fell off his horse.

When Cao Chun heard the sound, he saw Xiahou Dun being hit by an arrow in the door, and his eyes were split, and he shouted eagerly: "Yuan Rang!! ”

Regardless of whether there was any danger or not, Cao Chun directly forcibly reined in the horse and checked Xiahoudun's situation.

I saw that Xiahoudun's face was bleeding like a torrent, his face was extremely pale at this time, his painful forehead was sweating, and his whole body was trembling.

"Yuan Jean! How are you! ”

Cao Chun was extremely anxious.

This battle can be lost, but Xiahoudun must not die! Otherwise, not to mention his brother Cao Cao, the eldest brother Cao Ren, even he himself can't forgive himself.

Xiahoudun only felt that his eyes were black, he gasped, he didn't faint because of the pain, and gritted his teeth and said, "I'm fine!" Keep retreating! ”

"Your eyes ......"

Without waiting for Cao Chun to finish speaking, Xiahoudun pulled out the sharp arrow inserted in his left eye, and then regardless of the blood flow and boundless pain, he directly stretched out two fingers and inserted them into his left eye, tearing out the eyes that had been shot out and throwing them into his mouth!

"Parents and blood, don't abandon it!" Xiahoudun's face was hideous, and he chewed and roared lowly.

This bloody scene made Cao Chun's eyes widen in shock!

Even the soldiers around him were extremely shocked!

For a while, morale turned around!

Xiahoudun's face did not change, he cut off a cloak and tied up the hollow left eye socket, stopped the blood, and then turned over and got on the horse again.

He glanced back at Lu Bu fiercely, and withdrew from the battlefield with Cao Chun with boundless anger.

Lu Bu in the distance took in all the things Xiahoudun had just done, and he couldn't help but feel a burst of shock.

"This Xiahoudun is so strong? It's a good man. ”

It was rare for Lu Bu not to ridicule his opponent, but to admire it.

After being shot blind in the eye, he dug it out and ate it! Is this something that ordinary people can do?

At this time, Gao Shun also gathered over with the trap camp and asked, "General, there is a flag from Wenyuan, don't chase it deeply." ”

When Lu Bu heard this, he retracted his gaze and nodded: "Just follow Wenyuan, and the poor Kou Mo chase." ”

Zhang Liao asked him not to chase deeply, he naturally would not be good at making claims.

This time it was already a big victory to be able to repel Xiahoudun's army, not to mention that he also blinded Xiahoudun's eyes.

"Lead the people to clean up the battlefield and collect the heavy armor of the tiger and leopard rider."

In Lu Bu's heart, he never forgot about the tiger and leopard riding, and his heart was extremely hot.

Secretly said: "If the Zhen family can provide funding and spend a lot of money to build a 5,000-person tiger and leopard ride for me, can the people of the world stop me?" ”

……

At the same time, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu took advantage of the remaining months of the battle between Lü Bu and Cao Jun to capture Lujiang County.

A holy decree was also sent from Yecheng to the Qiaojia in Anhui County under the rule of Lujiang County.
