"Quick! Get back!" Zhang Xun saw that Cao Jun did not catch up in time, so he ran towards Runan, for fear that something would happen on the road!
"General, Cao Jun seems to be in civil strife!" Chen Lan caught up with Zhang Xun and said!
"Huh? Cheng Yu is as treacherous as Cao Cao. This may be Cao Jun's trick to lure the enemy. Don't turn back easily. It's better to go back to Runan now!" Zhang Xun thought for a while and said
"But what if this is really a civil strife! This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!" Lei Bo said
"It's better to be more cautious!" Zhang Xun thought for a while and said, although killing him back might have miraculous effects, he still shouldn't take risks. He can't make mistakes with his hundreds of thousands of horses!
"Okay!" Lei Bo said with some pity.
"Take advantage of this rare opportunity and withdraw quickly!" Chen Landao said
Zhang Xun and several others led their soldiers in front, and a large number of Yuan Jun followed slowly. The dark figures made the originally not very bright earth darker. The moon in the sky did not know when it secretly hid in the sky. Into the clouds!
"Kill!" Cheng Feng saw Yuan Jun slowly entering the attack range, so he didn't say any nonsense, just shouted loudly, and then carried out the Flame Dragon Halberd and killed him!
"Kill!" The God of War Legion was like a wild horse that had escaped the reins, killing them in one breath and launching an ice-breaking operation!
"What's going on? Where did this person come from?" Zhang Xun was so shocked that he almost fell off his horse!
The Red Flame Horse itself is a unique good horse, and Cheng Feng is also a peerless warrior. It is really the man who takes advantage of the horse's power, and the horse strengthens the man's power! They saw Cheng Feng plunge into the crowd like a tiger descending from the mountain. With the wave of his halberd, Yuan Jun fell to the ground one after another, and he cut a bloody path in an instant!
"Kill him! Capture Zhang Xun alive!" Cheng Feng roared. The God of War army was like the scorching sun, and Yuan Jun was like ice and snow. After a short fight, Yuan Jun couldn't hold on any longer and began to run away, regardless of formation!
"Block! Follow me and fight out!" Zhang Xun was furious. He didn't care what happened to Lei Bo and the other two. When he saw the person on the other side heading straight for his handsome flag, he knew that he was going to be beheaded!
"Put away the battle flag! Everyone fight back with me!" Seeing that the road ahead was blocked, Zhang Xun also became ruthless and killed Cao Jun who was in civil strife behind him!
"Commander! Why did you come back again?" Chen Lan was a little confused.
"The way forward is blocked. I don't know who came to kill us. Our army can't resist it! We need to fight back and then use the civil strife in Cao's army to escape!" Zhang Xundao said
"Okay!" Chen Lan didn't waste any time, and directly joined Lei Bo and Zhang Xun to kill Cao Jun!
"Kill! Chase after me!" Cheng Feng narrowed his eyes and said with murderous intent.
"Master Marquis, don't panic! Yuan's army is in chaos and hastily surrendered to where Yu Jin and Xiahou Dun are stationed. This shows that the time has come!" Cao Cao rushed over at this time and said with a smile.
"Haha, fortunately Prime Minister Cao's reinforcements arrived in time!" Cheng Feng said with a smile. After saying this, the two led their troops forward step by step, harvesting Yuan Jun's soldiers along the way. Anyone who dared to resist would be killed without mercy!
"Kill!" Zhang Xun left as quickly as he came. The two armies of Yu Jin and Xiahou Dun were fighting, and the Qingzhou soldiers were retreating steadily. Suddenly, the Yuan army came from behind and killed Xiahou Dun!
"How dare you rebel!" Xiahou Dun was furious. Seeing the Qingzhou soldiers falling down one after another, Xiahou Dun's heart was bleeding!
Zhang Xun and his men fought all the way with their men and horses without stopping. They charged with the cavalry and then marched away towards the hinterland of Cao's army!
"Yu Jin, this matter is not over yet, you have to bear the main responsibility!" Xiahou Dun said anxiously
"Hmph!" Yu Jin snorted coldly without any response, but he squeezed the spear in his hand tighter!
"What's going on? Why did you let Zhang Xun run over?" Just when Xiahou Dun was about to get angry, Cao Cao and others came from behind!
"Prime Minister, Yu Jin rebelled and strangled my Qingzhou soldiers! As a result, Zhang Xun ran over!" Xiahou Dun glared at Yu Jin and said
"Huh? Why?" Cao Cao was not angry and proud. Although he was not tall, he was very powerful!
"I am reporting to the Prime Minister that Xiahou Dun was not strict in his military management and was not successful in the encirclement and suppression of Yuan's army. Instead, he sent troops to rob the people. That's why I launched the army to encircle and suppress the people. Otherwise, the people will lose their trust in my imperial army!" Yu Jin said calmly!
"You!" Xiahou Dun wanted to retort, but when he saw Cao Cao's stern eyes, he couldn't help but keep those words in his stomach!
"Haha! Make the Marquis laugh!" Cao Cao turned to Cheng Feng and smiled.
"It doesn't matter! The war is urgent! Let's chase Yuan Jun first. As for the Prime Minister's military discipline and regulations, it's better for the Prime Minister to go back and get the regulations himself!" Cheng Bao said expressionlessly. After letting these guys mess up the matter, Zhang Xun and others took a detour and ran back to Runan. Although they left a lot of soldiers behind, it was still unsatisfactory!
"You guys, let's not mention this matter for the time being. We will talk about it after Yuan Jun is defeated. Yuan Rang should take the blame first and make meritorious service!" Cao Cao said, and then rewarded Yu Jin heavily, which made both of them very satisfied. Although this matter is not big, Xiahou Dun and Yu Jin will never be together again. From then on, there was a gap!
There was no words all night. Although Cao Cao didn't say much, it was obvious that something was wrong with the atmosphere in Cao's army. Yu Jin's elite was Cao Cao's trump card, and Xiahou Dun was a new force. The most important thing was that they were a group of Yellow Turbans. The army has been reformed, but its banditry is still there!
Cao Cao looked at the 300,000 troops in his hand, and he felt a little confused. In addition, Cao Ren, who arrived later, was really exhausted. If Yuan Shu could not be defeated as soon as possible, I am afraid that Ma Chao from Xiliang would attack Chang'an. Cao Cao can figure out the character of everyone else, but there is only one Ma Chao. He is a real animal. He is not afraid of cold or cold food, and he can eat meat or vegetables!
Cheng Feng looked coldly at the generals under Cao Cao. Xiahou Dun was one of them. Yu Jin had also seen him yesterday. That strong and powerful man must be the famous Cheng Yu. Cheng Feng was still very afraid of this talent. Wen Ke He is an enemy of Xu Shu and can defeat Zhang Xun in martial arts. He is a rare talent. The most important thing is that he is ruthless and will do anything to achieve his goals. This is a dangerous person!
"Cheng Yu is the governor of grain and grass, Xiahou Dun is the vanguard, and Yu Jin is commanding the army. We will go all out to capture Runan and destroy Zhang Xun's tribe!" Cao Cao shouted. He was no longer qualified to delay time. The war was about money and grain, and now he was almost there. We can no longer supply food and fodder for the army!
"promise!"
"Master Hou, you still have something to say!" Cao Cao laughed.
"When the army goes out on an expedition, they must not rob the people's property at will, and they must not damage the crops!" Cheng Feng said loudly
"Yes! Anyone who dares to damage the crops will be beheaded on the spot!" Cao Cao said loudly. As for robbing people's property, he naturally ignored it. After all, when you conquer a city, robbing is indispensable. This matter is prohibited even if it is prohibited. I can't help it, I can only say this to calm the people's hearts and my own conscience. After all, in war, there is no one who doesn't steal things!
"Set off!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!" The army's momentum and morale were high, making Cao Cao look happier and his face was no longer so dark!
Cao Cao and Cheng Feng walked side by side at the front of the team, chatting one after another. Although they seemed very harmonious, as for their inner thoughts, they were probably not so calm. Maybe it was like what Lao Zhang said in later generations, The chat between opponents is like an old duck swimming in the water. The surface of the water is very calm, but the two claws under the water are clawing at each other desperately!
"I heard that Prime Minister Cao's ideal is to be a general of the Han Dynasty and guard the Western Regions Protectorate, right?" Cheng Feng said with a smile.
"That's right! This is indeed my lifelong wish. It's just that things are unpredictable, but I didn't expect that I would become the mainstay of the Han Dynasty!" Cao Cao sighed.
"What's so difficult about this! When the world is peaceful, I will personally declare to the emperor that you and I will go outside the Pass together. You will guard the Western Regions, and I will open up and expand the territory!" Cheng Feng said with a smile.
"That's a great feeling! Haha!" Cao Cao laughed. As for his inner thoughts, I'm afraid only ghosts know!
"Are you telling the truth? Are there really so many places and countries outside?" Cao Cao asked with some uncertainty. After all, what Cheng Feng said was too shocking to people's minds!
"It's absolutely true! It's not just the Han Dynasty that has a vast land and abundant resources. There are many other countries besides the Han Dynasty, but the distance is long!" Cheng Feng said with a smile. For a hero like Cao Cao, the exploration of unknown areas is the most important thing. pleasure!
"Okay! It's settled. After Yuan Shu is defeated, I will go to guard the Western Regions and see if there are so many wonderful things!" Cao Cao said with a smile. Although he thought well, how could this world follow the rules of one or two? Personal development of ideas!
Just when Cao Cao's brain was running rapidly, suddenly a pheasant flew up from the roadside, and by chance, it hit Cao Cao's crotch and his paws turned yellow. This time it was a hornet's nest, and Cao Cao's war horse Frightened, he snorted and ran out in a hurry. When Cao Cao realized that he was under control, he had already run into the fields and trampled many wheat fields!
"This!" Cheng Feng was speechless for a while. Could it be that such a bloody thing happened to him again?
"Quick! See if the Prime Minister is injured!" Cheng Yu shouted. The faces of the group of people were not very good. Boss Cao had just issued an order yesterday that no one was allowed to damage farmland. In the blink of an eye, he was slapped in the face. It’s really frustrating and speechless!
Cao frowned, said nothing, and suddenly pulled out the Yitian Sword from his waist and placed it across his neck!
"Prime Minister, wait!" This frightened Cheng Yu, Cao Hong and others. Xiahou Dun quickly ran over and hugged Cao Cao, fearing that if he was too late, Cao Cao would commit suicide. However, when he caught Cao Cao, he was also trembling in his heart. This The guy had no intention of committing suicide at all!
"My generals, the army can't do anything without orders, and the law is unknown if it is not used. I, Cao Mengde, have made the regulations, and even I cannot violate them. Now my horses are trampling on the fertile fields, as if I are destroying them. Therefore, Cao Cao is willing to abide by the law for the rest of his life, but this is to quell Yuan Shu. The rebellion and the protection of the Han family will be left to you. I hope you will work together to support the emperor and don't let others look down on us!" Cao Cao said with tears in his eyes!
"Please also ask the Marquis to save the Prime Minister!" When Cao Hong saw that Cao Cao was really going to commit suicide, he didn't care what he said and kowtowed his head in front of the cover. Cao Hong was still young and didn't understand these conspiracies and thought that Boss Cao was playing it real. of!
"Zi Lian, stand up! A true man means what he says!" Cao Cao said
"No! Prime Minister, the world must not be free from injustice, nor can it be unjust! I am willing to die on behalf of the Prime Minister!" Cao Hong cried, and at the same time kept kowtowing to Cheng Feng, which made Cheng Feng depressed. It was not his fault that he had to do it. Kill Cao Cao!
"Zi Lian, please get up and let me have a try!" Cheng Feng smiled at Cao Hong, then raised his hands to the sky and said to Cao Cao!
"Since ancient times, officials have not been punished. The prime minister is the commander-in-chief of an army. His safety is related to the life and death of the entire army. How can he be arrogant? To help the Han Dynasty, Meng De is still needed to calm the world. How can you lose a big thing for a small amount! Isn't it true that committing suicide in vain is like this? Regardless of the importance, you will abandon the world for your own private reputation!" Cheng Feng is also a famous actor, and these high-sounding words came easily!
"This!" After hearing this, Cao Cao pondered for a long time, and suddenly cut off a strand of long hair from his face, "You can avoid the death penalty, but you cannot escape the punishment of living! Today, Cao Cao disobeyed the military order and should have been beheaded. However, the army still needs to be in command, so he cut off his hair to act as the head. !Cheng Yu, please order the three armies not to disobey orders again, otherwise they will be executed without mercy!" Cao Cao said loudly
"Yes!" Cheng Yu passed this strand of hair to the three armies. Everyone was shocked. Cao's army's military appearance and morale were greatly improved instantly, and the marching speed was also much faster!
"Thank you, Lord Marquis!" Cao Cao smiled at Cheng Feng.
"Haha! It's just a little effort, the Prime Minister is so resourceful!" Cheng Feng exclaimed, he is indeed a capable person, and he is a shining stone everywhere!
"Time is also destiny! On the cusp of the storm, extraordinary measures are indeed needed!" Cao Cao laughed.
The two of them stopped talking a lot. It was good for them to know some things. Talking too much would be bad. After all, everyone is smart, but the people need to be fooled!
"General! Now Cao Cao's army is attacking, how should we respond?" Lei Bo looked at the unhappy Zhang Xun and asked
"I'm wondering who the troops we encountered last night were? Cao's army didn't have that much fighting power at all. Even the armor was different. I saw with my own eyes that our swords couldn't even leave a trace on the local armor!" Zhang Xunchen vocal tract
"This? Impossible! Our troops didn't have many casualties. They were just rushing in a hurry and accidentally injured a lot of them!" Chen Landao said, he was behind and basically did not fight with Cheng Feng's army.
"It should be Xiaoyao Hou Chengfeng!" Lei Bo said, "I saw a general carrying a halberd. If it's not Chengfeng, it's Lu Bu!"
"It's Chengfeng, that's right. Lu Bu shouldn't dare to leave Xuzhou at this time. Only Chengfeng's troops have such sophisticated armor and strong combat effectiveness!" Zhang Xun sighed. Although he knew who his opponent was, but this The pressure is greater.
"Hiss! Xiaoyao Hou Chengfeng, this is a ruthless character. I'm afraid we are all in danger this time!" Chen Landao
"When the soldiers come to cover up the water and earth, a man will return as a corpse wrapped in horse leather!" Lei Bo said,
"That's right! We rely on the city to consume them for a period of time, then send orders to the army, rest and reorganize the city, and organize supplies. We must be fully prepared!" Zhang Xundao said
"Yes! General! There's just one thing I don't understand. Why didn't Cao Cao and others attack my lord's Shouchun and instead went to Runan?" Lei Bo said.
"Haha! I'm afraid General Ji Ling is guarding the city. The walls of Shouchun are tall. Cao Cao and others plan to capture us first, and then join forces to fight against His Majesty again!" Zhang Xun said. Zhang Xun's personal force value may not be outstanding, but as Yuan Shu The only handsome guy under my command is more or less genuine!
"Try not to go out of the city to fight. With our 100,000 troops, we can withstand three months. This is the time we buy for Your Majesty!" Zhang Xundao said
"Yes! General"
"Hmph! What a great plan for Li Daitao to attack Runan secretly. Fortunately, Zhang Xun was smart and didn't fall into Cao Cao's siege!" Yuan Shu looked at the letter in his hand and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. If Ru was If Nan's 200,000 troops were killed, then he would have no choice but to wait for death!
"Your Majesty is so blessed!" Yan Xiang said, "The plan now is to have Grand Sima Ji Ling go out to attack Liu Bei and Lu Bu. Taking advantage of their lack of troops, we can defeat them first and prepare for the decisive battle!"
"Huh! Go out to fight in the city? Are you a vanguard? Which one is easier to deal with, Lu Bu, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Yanliang?" Hearing this, Ji Ling couldn't help but snorted coldly. His injury has just healed a little, but it's not comprehensive yet. After recovering, every time he thought of being knocked away by Lu Bu, his heart skipped a beat. Now he had a natural fear of Lu Bu!
"You! Wen Dang will fight to the death, Wudang will fight to the death, you are so timid and fearful of trouble!" Yan Xiang felt that he had grabbed Ji Ling's braid, and immediately began to refute!
"Shut up!" Yuan Shu was furious. This group of people from the aristocratic family knew how to fight for power every day. If they were really used, they would probably run faster than rabbits!
"Just follow Grand Sima's orders for the war. Be strict in everything. If you have the opportunity, you can go out of the city to fight! The supplies in this city must be well stocked, and the soldiers cannot be hungry!" Yuan Shu said
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
That night Ji Ling personally selected 2,000 strong men and organized them into a commando force to attack Liu Bei's camp. A fire burned most of the coalition's food and grass, and took advantage of the chaos to let go of many of Yan Liang's horses, causing the coalition to retreat ten miles. Zhang Fei patrolled and found many war horses, but did not return them to Yan Liang. For this reason, the two fought for fifty rounds without deciding the winner. In the end, Lu Bu came out to speak. Liu Bei reprimanded Zhang Fei for the sake of the overall situation, but Zhang Fei found However, the two hundred horses were never returned, which made Yan Liang very unhappy. In anger, he directly led his troops to withdraw and helped Lu Bu escort the grain and grass! When this news reached Cheng Feng and others, it was already three days later. It is said that after Cao Cao saw it, he just breathed a sigh of relief and said, "There is no way to make a plan!" As for Cheng Feng, he was silent for a long time. Finally let it go!
