"There must be capable people in Liu Da'er's army, but my formation was broken ().: Reading the novel, it seems that most of these capable people are the ones that Brother Chun told me before, and they recently joined Liu Bei's command."

After Cao Chun heard this, his expression was a bit dignified, and he had other worries, so he persuaded Cao Ren.

"Liu Da'er's talent is not low, and even the prime minister often said that he is an outstanding person in the world, so he has a lot of fear. What's more, Liu Da'er is good at winning people's hearts, and has won the support of Pan, Zhang, Taishi, Hua and other peerless generals. According to me As you can see, in the past, Liu Daer's successive losses and defeats were all due to the talents of great sages under his command who did not have a certain strategy. Now that he has that tall man, he is like a tiger with wings added to his wings, like a dragon turning into a dragon, and he should not be underestimated.

At present, my elder brother has brought all his soldiers and horses to Xinye, and Fancheng is empty of troops. I am very worried.If that expert taught Liu Daer to attack Fancheng secretly, Fancheng would be in danger! "

After Cao Ren listened, he pondered for a while. Just as he was hesitating, a soldier came to report him.The Huang family, a wealthy family in Xinye, sent people from the clan to meet.When Cao Ren heard this, he immediately showed joy, and hurried to greet him.The Huang family had met Cao Ren from someone, and after paying their respects, he said that Liu Bei had a reputation for benevolence, but he was actually a sycophant. Since he came to Xinye, he tried every means to extract benefits from the wealthy families in Xinye City.The Huang family suffered the most from him. At the moment, they heard that Prime Minister Cao wanted to beg Liu Bei, so they came to help.Cao Ren exclaimed with joy when he heard the words.

"This is why heaven wants to kill Liu Daer!"

Cao Ren rewarded the visitor very much, and as soon as Huang's congregation left the tent, Cao Chun frowned and said ().

"Brother, don't act in a hurry. I often hear that Liu Da'er is very popular in Xinye. I'm afraid there may be fraud, so I have to guard against it."

When Cao Ren heard the words, he laughed and said.

"Brother Chun, don't worry too much. All over the world, wealthy families and ordinary people have always been at odds due to conflicts of interest. If Liu Daer wants to win the hearts of the people, he must use his own interests to appease the people. This will inevitably offend the wealthy families in the city. What's more In recent years, Liu Daer has spent a lot of money and food in recruiting troops and horses in Xinye. If he doesn't get it from the wealthy family, how can he continue. The wealthy Huang family has hundreds of children. It is a rich family in a county. I won't exploit it! It's only natural for Huang to hold a grudge against him and want to get rid of him!"

"But Fancheng is empty of troops, so what?"

Cao Chun's face tightened, and he asked again.Cao Ren squinted his eyes, Fancheng was really empty, so he had to let it go, but Cao Ren would not be reconciled if he retreated like this.Cao Ren thought for a while, then said.

"The so-called opportunity must not be missed, and there is a good opportunity right now, how can I let it go. Tonight I will go to seize the city first, and if I can get it, I will make a plan. If not, I will retreat back to Fancheng!"

How could Cao Chun not know what was going on in Cao Ren's heart, knowing that he was unwilling, so after thinking for a while, he said.

"Brother's attention has already been decided, and it's useless to persuade the younger brother. But if you want to go, the three armies should be divided into three teams. Two teams will go outside the city to meet them, and one team will enter the city to ensure nothing is lost."

When Cao Ren heard the words, he smiled and nodded in response.

"Okay! Just follow Chundi's words."

Following Cao Chunzhi's words, Cao Ren divided his army into three teams, preparing for the night's battle.

At about three o'clock, the moonlight was shining, Cao Ren led an army to the west gate, and taught the soldiers to imitate the crowing of magpies three times. fall().

Cao Ren was overjoyed, and rushed in first, and the soldiers behind him followed Cao Ren to the west gate.Cao Ren was full of murderous intentions, and wanted to seize Liu Bei's head as soon as possible, so he flew all the way to Xinye County Government at high speed.

Suddenly Cao Ren's face changed drastically, recalling that he hadn't seen anyone on the road just now, Cao Ren knew that he had been tricked, and secretly screamed in his heart that he was not good, so he hurriedly turned his horse back and shouted.

"Retreat quickly!"

Unexpectedly, as soon as Cao Ren's words fell, a cannon rang out in the county government office, and the four gates burst into flames.Cao Ren pulled his horse and turned around, only to see Liu Bei turning out of the east alley and Liao Hua turning out of the west alley, attacking and killing.Cao Ren's face changed drastically, he was so frightened that he almost jumped out of his body, and hurriedly fled to the north gate.Cao Ren fled all the way, but before reaching the north gate, Daobang turned out of Taishi Ci, and after a while of killing, Cao Ren was lucky to escape under the desperate resistance of the soldiers.Cao Ren was ambushed twice, most of his soldiers and horses were broken, and he hurried to the south gate. Suddenly, there was a loud roar of tigers, and Hua Xiong brandished his broken dragon knife to block his way.

Cao Ren glared and gritted his teeth, trying to kill him.Hua Xiong ordered his soldiers to stop him, and people from all directions intercepted him. Cao Ren fought to the death, but he was still unable to break through.

Cao Ren fell into death again and again. I am afraid that in case of accident, he ordered a general to change his armor, hide the army and flee to the north gate.Suddenly, there was another shout at the north gate, and Zhang Fei was seen leaping forward with his spear in the light of the fire.Zhang Fei roared angrily, as loud as thunder, and after a frenzy of killing, Cao Ren's cavalry were all scattered. Cao Ren covered his face with his hands, whipped his horse in a panic and escaped.Zhang Fei patted his horse from behind and rushed over. He struck Cao Ren's helmet with a spear, knocked Cao Ren's helmet away, and shouted loudly.

"Where is Cao Zixiao?!!! Tell me quickly!!!"

Cao Ren stopped his fear, and quickly pointed to the general with whom he had exchanged armor just now, and shouted.

"It's the one in the silver armor in front!"

When Zhang Fei heard about it, he looked around and recognized Cao Ren's armor. He quickly abandoned Cao Ren and galloped forward to give chase.Cao Ren turned his horse's head and walked towards the east gate, just as Gao Lan and Cao Chun's rescue soldiers from outside the city arrived.Cao Ren hurriedly shouted, Gao Lan and Cao Chun saw it, hurriedly supported Cao Ren, and killed a bloody road. When they reached the gate, the flames were very strong, firewood was pushed down from the city, and fire was everywhere. Smoke and fire first out().Cao Ren followed suit.When they came to the doorway, a beam of fire fell from the city gate. Cao Chun's eyes were sick, so he hurriedly swept it with his gun, and swept the beam of fire into two parts. Cao Ren fled quickly on horseback.

Liu Bei gathered all the troops and went out of the city to pursue them. Cao Ren had no time to withdraw his troops and return to the village, so he hurriedly looked at Beihe and left.When we were near the river, we tried to find a boat to cross the river, but we were in a panic.Liu Bei's army chased him, and all the generals rushed to kill Cao Ren.Cao Ren saw the situation like this, wildness broke out, and he led the army to fight to the death. Cao Jun's soldiers also fought with their backs.Cao Chun hurriedly protected Cao Ren to disembark and take advantage of the situation to cross the river.Seeing Cao Ren fleeing, Liu Bei ordered his soldiers to attack fiercely. Cao's army was gradually unable to resist, and most of them were drowned in the water.

Cao Ren hurriedly crossed the river, went ashore and headed straight for Fancheng overnight.Cao Ren led the defeated army to Fancheng, and hurriedly ordered the soldiers to open the gate. As soon as the gate opened, Cao Ren's panic calmed down a little, and he was glad that he escaped.Unexpectedly, a general suddenly swung a huge ax from Fancheng to Cao Ren and flew straight to kill him.It is Liu Bei's righteous brother, Pan Wushuang also!

Pan Feng raised the ax on his horse and shouted loudly.

"I have taken Fancheng for a long time!"

Cao Ren was so frightened that his soul flew away, he pulled out his horse and fled in a panic.Pan Feng led his army in pursuit, Cao Ren was ambushed repeatedly, his mind was weakened, his men and horses were exhausted, and he fled slowly.Seeing that Pan Feng was about to rush towards him, a group of men and horses suddenly came out halfway to intercept and kill him.The leading general, with a tiger's head and a tiger's head, and a powerful body, wielding a tiger's head and a big sword, is Xu Chu, the general under Cao Cao's command.

It is said that Xu Chu got Cao Cao's order to fly from Luoyang to Fancheng. When he was about to arrive, the scouts who went to inquire found that Fancheng was being attacked by Pan Feng's army, and it was about to conquer Fancheng.Xu Chu had few soldiers, so he didn't dare to go to the rescue. After thinking for a while, he sent someone to Wang Xinye to report, while he led the army to lie in ambush in a certain place first, and wait and see the situation.Unexpectedly, soon after, Cao Ren's defeated troops rushed back. Xu Chu heard that the scouts were coming to report, so he quickly made preparations and waited for the opportunity to move.

Xu Chu's eyes widened, and he tried his best to chop Pan Feng with his sword.Seeing that it was Xu Chu, Pan Feng's expression changed slightly, and he immediately shook his head to fight with him.Cao Ren, the world-renowned ever-victorious general, suffered repeated setbacks in the past few days, and lost more than half of his [-] soldiers. Cao Ren's stomach was filled with overwhelming anger, and he roared and swung his gun to kill Pan Feng. Go, when Gao Lan and Cao Chun saw this, they hurriedly raised their weapons and came to Panfeng to encircle and kill them.

The four generals Xu Chu, Cao Ren, Cao Chun, and Gao Lan surrounded Pan Feng and attacked non-stop, while the remnants of Cao Ren's army were also rescued by Xu Chu's new force army, regaining the chaos and fighting desperately with Pan Feng's soldiers.Although Pan Feng is a powerful general in the world, there are few people in the world who can stand shoulder to shoulder with him, but at this time he is facing four generals, among which Xu Chu and him are only brothers in martial arts, and Gao Lan is also a super general. Chun is also an extraordinary martial artist, among the ranks of first-class generals.Under the siege of the four generals, Pan Feng couldn't hold back his moves. Pan Feng's thoughts changed, and suddenly he struck Cao Ren with an axe. Xu Chu, Cao Chun, and Gao Lan were shocked and rushed to rescue him.Unexpectedly, this was just a false move, Pan Feng took the opportunity to sway and retreat.The four generals Cao Ren, Xu Chu, Cao Chun, and Gao Lan rushed to chase and kill them wherever they were willing to give up. The soldiers of their army swarmed up and killed Pan Feng's army.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Pan Feng hurried back to Fancheng, but suddenly there was a cannon blast, and another army rushed out.The leading general is Zhang Jai, one of the original Hejian Four Courts.

It turned out that not long after Xu Chu left.Cao Cao had been in a state of mind for days, fearing that something might happen to Fancheng, he quickly taught Zhang Jai to lead [-] tiger and leopard riders to rescue him.Zhang Jai led the Xingye to rush on the road, just happened to meet Pan Feng, and quickly led his army to stop and kill him.

Pan Feng saw an army coming from the front again, thinking that Fancheng is absolutely unacceptable now, so he must be careful, so he hurriedly ordered the soldiers to retreat to Xinye City.Seeing Pan Feng retreat suddenly, Cao Ren hurriedly pursued him from behind. Zhang Jai also led his troops to pursue him until he reached the river.Pan Feng's soldiers were so exhausted that it was difficult to move around. When they were about to be surrounded by Cao Jun's troops, Liu Bei led his pursuers to arrive in time.When Liu Bei saw that Pan Feng was besieged and killed by so many soldiers and horses, he was shocked and turned pale. He quickly ordered the soldiers to go to help in the battle. The two armies fought together overnight, and did not retreat until dawn.

With the rescue of Xu Chu and Zhang Jaw, Cao Ren regained Fancheng.Even so, after a series of defeats, Cao Ren also lost nearly [-] soldiers and horses.Later, if it wasn't for Xu Chu and Zhang Jai's rescue, Cao Ren's remaining [-] remnants would not be seven or eight out of ten.

Later Cao Ren learned that Xu Chu and Zhang Jai would come because Cao Chun sent people back to Luoyang to inform Cao Cao.Afterwards, Cao Chun pleaded guilty to Cao Ren.Not only was Cao Ren not angry, but he bowed again to his brother, saying that if Cao Chun hadn't had the foresight, his entire army might have been wiped out at this time, and it is still unknown whether the head on the item is still there.After Cao Chun heard this, he felt relieved. He thought Cao Ren would hate him because of it.So far, the friendship between Cao Ren and Cao Chun has deepened, which is nothing to worry about.

Cao Ren suffered repeated setbacks in Liu Bei's hands, and he knew how powerful he was, so he didn't dare to offend Xinye again for the time being.Cao Ren then ordered people to inquire, and learned that the person who advised Liu Bei was a man named Xu Shu.After Cao Ren inquired about it, he taught people to pass the report back to Luoyang. One was to plead guilty to Cao Cao, and the other was to explain to Cao Cao how powerful Liu Bei was.

In other words, Liu Bei withdrew his troops that night and rushed back to Xinye.The next day, Pan Feng suddenly brought two people to see him, and one of them was Liu Mi, the county magistrate of Fancheng.

This Liu Mi was from Changsha and was also a clan member of the Han family. After Pan Feng got Fancheng, Liu Mi knew that he was Liu Huangshu's brother-in-law.Later, Pan Feng pursued Cao Ren that night, leaving Liu Mi to guard the city. Later, Liu Mi saw that Pan Feng was besieged and killed. Seeing that the situation was not good, he feared that Cao Ren would settle accounts with him, so he quickly led his troops, abandoned the city and fled to Xinye , and then just met Liu Bei's soldiers and horses.Liu Mi told the soldier that he was an acquaintance of Pan Feng. Pan Feng came to meet him. Seeing that it was Liu Mi, he originally wanted to introduce Liu Bei. Mi first followed him into the city, and then went to see Liu Bei tomorrow.Liu Mi didn't dare to make mistakes, so he promised.

Liu Bei heard that Liu Mi was a relative of the Han family, so he hurriedly received him. After talking with Liu Mi, Liu Bei saw only one person standing beside him.Liu Bei thought that although he was young, he was very handsome, so he asked Liu Midao.

"I don't know who this is?"

Seeing that Liu Bei was quite happy with his nephew, Liu Mi was overjoyed and hurriedly told him.

"This is my nephew Kou Feng, the son of the Marquis Kou of this Luo. Both his parents died, so he is dependent on me. Although this son is young, he is quite skilled in martial arts and understands etiquette and righteousness. I have a lot of respect for him on weekdays. rely."

After Liu Mi finished speaking, Kou Feng was also dexterous. He quickly knelt down on his knees and bowed to Liu Bei again.

"I heard that Uncle Liu Huang is a hero in the world, and seeing him now is indeed the case! Hearing that Uncle Liu defeated Cao Bandit recently, it is really satisfying. Today, seeing Uncle Huang is really a blessing for three lives!"

"Haha, a false name is a false name, my nephew doesn't have to take it seriously. As for the previous war, I didn't want to commit more crimes, but Cao Zixiao was aggressive. To protect the safety of the people in Xinye, I had no choice but to lead my troops to stop it."
