The next day, Cao Ren acted as the vanguard and reorganized his troops to fight and lure the enemy. Cao Cao divided his troops to ambush at Bagong Mountain.
Chen Wu and other generals did not want to compete with Ling Tong for credit, and wanted to motivate the young generals, so they still asked him to take the lead, and all the generals came to watch the battle.
Ling Tong came to the front of the formation and saw Han Ming calling the formation again. He laughed and said, "You black man, I will behead you today!"
Han Ming was eager to show off. He snorted coldly and rode out. Ling Tong came to meet him with his gun drawn. They fought twice and met his opponent. The killing was so smoke and dust that the two armies beat drums and cheered, and the shouts were loud.
Liu Qi, Zhao Yun and others were watching the battle from the rear. They were looking forward to this remaining general with high combat power in the late Soochow. If he could be trained, he might be as good as Gan Ning and Tai Shi Ci.
I don't have much impression of Han Ming and Liu Qi. His spear attack is fierce and aggressive, similar to Ma Chao's style, but he lacks a bit of domineering and his moves are not as flexible as Ling Tong's.
As the generals of Cao's army continue to be killed or captured, there will be more and more strangers in the army. After all, Cao Cao occupied the Central Plains and Hebei, with a vast land and abundant resources, and many talents. I wonder if this new opportunity will bring out another batch of talents.
I heard that what Ling Tong learned was the Overlord Spear left by Sun Ce. Every move was open and closed, crisp and powerful, and had its own power. The two fought for more than thirty moves, and Han Ming's moves gradually became messy, as if he was suppressed by Ling Tong. , began to retreat steadily.
Zhao Yun frowned slightly and was about to comment when he saw Han Ming flinging a shot, turning his horse and running away. Seeing that Han Ming was defeated, Cao Ren hurriedly ordered to retreat.
"You idiot, where are you going?" Ling Tong yelled and chased after him.
When Han Dang saw the commotion in the Wei army's formation, he couldn't help but be overjoyed. He aimed at Cao Ren on his horse and fired three arrows in a row, forcing him to scramble. He and Chen Wu each led an army to cover up the killing.
Liu Qi was about to beat the drums to cheer, but heard Zhao Yun exclaim: "No, this must be a trick to lure the enemy."
Liu Qi asked: "How can you see it?"
Zhao Yun said: "Although Han Ming's moves were chaotic just now, he was still able to deal with them. This is a false defeat!"
Chen Dao also said: "Yesterday, the two of them were fifty-fifty and there was no winner. Cao Ren had his troops in good order. Today there is chaos among the troops. There must be a fraud."
"Cao Ren's command of the army is indeed more than that!" Liu Qi raised his head and looked at the battlefield, frowning.
At this time, the Wu army's vanguard was out, and its morale was at its peak. Ling Tong, who was still in his prime of life, was even more excited. He had already rushed into the enemy's army on horseback, clashing back and forth, as if he was in a deserted land.
Yesterday, Ling Tong showed off his majesty. All Jiangdong generals were delighted. Today, they won another victory. They were all excited. After being suppressed by Cao's army for many years, they finally had a chance to counterattack. They all moved forward bravely.
Cao Ren led the Chinese army to barely resist, and fought with Ling Tong for four or five times. Seeing that the Wu soldiers' morale was as high as a rainbow, he hurriedly retreated under the cover of archers.
Han Dang and Chen Wu at the rear were not weak at all. They charged in from the left and right, and their horses galloped past. They killed the Wei soldiers and turned them upside down. They had to throw away their helmets and armor, making them look like men from Jiangdong like beggars.
Ling Tong pursued all the way into the mountains. Suddenly, an ambush soldier appeared from the mountain col ahead and let Cao Ren pass. Hengdao immediately shouted: "I am Lu Ren, who dares to be so presumptuous?"
Ling Tong didn't even reply. He rushed forward without stopping and knocked the Wei general off his horse with just one move. The ambush soldiers scattered and fled into the mountains.
Cao Ren was furious and took the opportunity to gather the defeated troops to intercept along the way. Ling Tong rushed into the formation and killed Cao Ren in a hurry. Fortunately, Han Ming came to the rescue in time and protected Cao Ren from retreating.
Han Dang and Chen Wuzheng were worried that there was an ambush in the mountains. Seeing that Ling Tong had been killed and dispersed, they no longer had any worries. The Wu army swarmed in and pursued them into the mountains.
On a high ridge to the east of Bagong Mountain, ancient pines stand tall and tall, and the wind blows. Cao Cao is wearing a brocade robe and standing under the tree to watch the battle.
Looking down from here, you can have a panoramic view of all intersections in the mountains. Cao Ren's defeated army is fighting and retreating, while Wu's army has pursued them into the mountains, and there is an ambush not far ahead.
When he arrived at the entrance of the valley, Cao Ren saw reinforcements appearing from the front. He immediately organized his troops to catch Ling Tong and fight. Wu soldiers arrived from behind and rushed forward in left and right directions.
"Beat the drum!" Cao Cao ordered calmly with his eyes narrowed, no emotion or anger visible on his face.
With the sound of a drum, the ambush troops on the left and right rushed out. Cao Zhang and Dianman each led an army to attack the two wings of the Wu army. The two armies fought in a melee, and the sound of killing in the valley was loud.
Cao Chun put up a pergola and looked toward the mountain road. When he saw that no reinforcements were arriving, he frowned and said, "If Liu Qi knew there was an ambush in the mountain, he might not dare to come to the rescue."
"The fish has swallowed the hook, so there is no reason why he won't come!" Cao Cao stroked his beard and smiled: "Even if Liu Qi knows my plan, he will come to rescue him, otherwise he will die at the hands of everyone from Jiangdong."
Cao Chun gritted his teeth and said, "This man has become so powerful that he has humiliated many people in our army. This battle has ruined his reputation."
Cao Cao twisted his beard and looked at the mountain pass. He saw the flag fluttering in the distance and said slowly: "This battle will eliminate future troubles forever."
…
Wu Jun rushed straight into the mountain, and it was too late for Liu Qi to call for gold. At this time, the morale of the whole army was greatly increased. Calling for gold would only make the team inconsistent and put the front army into a dangerous situation.
Zhao Yun said: "The ambush must be at Bagong Mountain. If we can't withdraw our troops in time, it's better to rescue them immediately and counterattack the Wei soldiers."
Chen Daoyan said: "Since Cao's thieves have set up an ambush, they must have expected us to rescue them. I'm afraid they have other tricks."
"We have to do this this time," Liu Qi said helplessly: "If we don't rescue him, people in Jiangdong will definitely hate us. In addition, if we blame Huang Gai for beating him, there will be a mutiny."
Zhao Yun cupped his fists and said, "Don't worry, my lord, Yun will lead an army to defeat the siege and rescue the generals."
Liu Qi said: "Cao's thieves are very good at using troops. Don't put all your efforts into it. General Chen will lead the troops to rescue him first and draw out the ambush. I have my own countermeasures."
"Nuo!" The military situation was urgent, and Chen Dao immediately led his troops to chase the Wu army.
Liu Qi then ordered Zhao Yun: "The general will lead three thousand fine cavalry and enter Bagong Mountain from the western intersection. When the Wei army's ambush is exhausted and the Wu army is surrounded, we will go out to rescue."
"Yes!" Zhao Yun also ordered his troops and left.
In the left camp of the Wu army, Zhu Huan, Quan Cong and other generals were laughing and talking. They even regretted not being the vanguard and missing the opportunity to kill the Wei army. Seeing that Liu Qi had sent Zhao Yun and others to attack again, they were dissatisfied and came to invite troops to fight.
Liu Qi said: "Ling Tong is afraid that he has fallen into Cao Ren's plan, and there must be an ambush ahead. I sent Zhao Zilong to rescue him."
Zhu Huan sneered and said: "I'm afraid the rescue is fake, but taking the credit is real."
Liu Qi said: "Generals, please be patient and calm down. We will find out later. If the situation ahead is urgent, several more generals will be needed to rescue us."
Zhu Huan and other generals all sneered, and they even said that they were taking credit so righteously. Liu Qi was really thick-skinned.
At this moment, as expected, drums rang out from Bagong Mountain, and sounds of killing broke out. In the blink of an eye, smoke and dust filled the air. Everyone was shocked and silently returned to the formation to prepare.
Liu Qi looked at the dust in the sky with a solemn expression. Although Zhao Yun has the ability to enter and exit seven times, the situation this time is different. Cao Cao has the absolute advantage. He naturally loves talents and wants to capture Zhao Yun alive and persuade him to surrender. This is the same mentality as when he dealt with General Wei. .
But now Cao Cao is in a disadvantageous situation and is preparing for a desperate counterattack. He will definitely kill the enemy at all costs. If the order is sent to kill the enemy, Zhao Yun will not be given so many opportunities to rush into the battle.
