Who is not Cao Cao?

Chapter 170

Wei Yan?

He Yan narrowed his eyes and observed the situation on the other side of the battlefield.

I saw that the person who shouted loudly just now and claimed to be "Wei Yan" was still a young man with a beard.

At this time, he was covered in blood, and he was deeply surrounded by Cao Jun. Obviously, it was because the surrounding comrades had died in battle, so he yelled that voice out of grief and indignation.

"Xu Hu, bring that person to me, don't hurt his life."

Although Wei Yan is still brave, He Yan can be regarded as a person who has experienced several wars. It can be seen that Wei Yan is still fighting on the battlefield with perseverance.

When the strength brought to him by that roar dissipated, and when the breath in his heart was vented, he should also fall down.

After hearing He Yan's order, Xu Hu exchanged positions with Xu Bao, letting Xu Bao get closer to He Yan in order to protect He Yan, and then rushed over on horseback.

Xu Hu, as a warrior who followed Xu Chu to Cao Cao, may not be as good as some battle-tested generals in battlefield combat, but he is worthy of anyone when it comes to heads-up.

After grinding Wei Yan a few times with Cao Jun soldiers around him, after Wei Yan's energy was exhausted quickly, Xu Hu deftly slipped Wei Yan's arm with the ring knife in his hand.

Wei Yan lost his weapon in pain, Xu Hu immediately stepped forward to hold down Wei Yan, restrained him and brought him in front of He Yan.

"Yes, put him up first."

On the battlefield, He Yan would definitely not put the lives of his soldiers at risk to chat and laugh happily with Wei Yan, a pawn who was just captured.

The most urgent task is to end this war as soon as possible.

In fact, from Wei Yancai's situation, it can be seen that Cao Jun has firmly gained the upper hand.

As Guan Yu was held back by Lu Meng and Xiahou Dun, and no one was in the rear of the Chinese army to supervise the battle, Liu Bei's morale weakened again.

According to He Yan, Liu Beijun should collapse completely if he persists for less than a quarter of an hour at most!

The stable horse in the central battlefield, He Yan turned his attention to the flanks again.

I have to say that Guan Erye is really fierce.

He beat Lu Meng just like he beat a child. If Xiahou Dun hadn't rushed over just now, Lu Meng might have been beheaded by Guan Erye.

However, as Xiahou Dun arrived, and Cao Jun's [-] cavalry were still cutting the formation on the flanks, Guan Yu's defeat would be a matter of time.

Seeing that there is a [-]% probability of victory in this battle, He Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief——

"I'm so good! Another victory!"

……

As time went by, the battlefield situation unsurprisingly slipped towards the trend predicted by He Yan.

Not only that, but Yu Jin, who was behind, also came late, and directly joined the formation to besiege Guan Yu.

The head of the five sons of good generals, Wei Zhiyuan Gong, plus an old sixth governor, such a lineup against Guan Yu can be regarded as Wei Jun giving Guan Yu face.

Moreover, the battles of several people were not a dry fight of one knife and one gun. When Yu Jin realized that the time was almost right, he left the battlefield directly and asked the soldiers to attach themselves with hooks and slash the red rabbit horse's four hooves directly.

"Hiss law law!"

After Chitu howled in pain, he performed a beautiful three-and-a-half-week turn, and by the way, Guan Yu, who was on horseback, fell to the ground.

When Lu Meng saw Guan Yu fell to the ground, he immediately picked up his weapon and rushed towards Guan Yu, vowing to take Guan Yu's head directly!

"Lu Meng!"

"No!"

Both Xiahou Dun and Yu Jin shouted in unison, their attitude to stop Lu Meng was self-evident.

Both of them have a close relationship with Boss Cao, and they know that Guan Yu is Boss Cao's darling.

If Lu Meng really cut off Guan Yu, his kid's future will be lost, do you understand!

Hearing the shouts of the two people behind him, Lu Meng raised his spear after hesitating again and again.

The cold blade of the spear was only a few inches away from Guan Yu's throat. If Lu Meng had raised his hand later, the second master might really have died at the knife of this "junior" Lu Meng.

He Yan also finished cleaning the central battlefield and felt the flanks. The thrilling scene of Lu Meng and Guan Yu just now almost scared He Yan off the fast flight!
"You brat, why do you insist on making things difficult for Guan Yu!"

After He Yan went up to meet Lu Meng's war horse, a smile appeared on his face again: "Okay! Capture Guan Yu alive! This is a great achievement! I will celebrate it for you when I go back!"

Lu Meng said naively: "It's not all my credit, it's mainly General Xiahou and General Yu..."

"Cough cough!"

He Yan hurriedly interrupted Lu Meng, and shouted towards Xiahou Dun and Yu Jin behind him, "Uncle Yuan Rang! General Yu! The main credit for this capture is Lu Meng! Are you all right?"

"No."

"No."

Xiahoudun and Yu Jin have been in Cao Ying for so long, how can they not understand Guan Yu's troubles?
If Xiahou Dun and Yu Jin were credited with capturing Guan Yu alive, Guan Yu would definitely be sent to Boss Cao in a proper manner, and then Boss Cao would get into trouble again...

Judging from Guan Yu's whereabouts before leaving Boss Cao, it is unlikely that he will stay by force.

But if you want to kill him, let's not talk about Boss Cao's reluctance, even if Boss Cao is willing, this kind of "destroy if you can't get it" behavior is still quite prestige.

On the contrary, if Guan Yu was thrown to He Yan, He Yan could completely list Guan Yu as his "private trophy" when reporting.

At that time, even if Cao Cao came to ask for someone, He Yan would have reason to detain Guan Yu and not give it to Cao Cao, so that Cao Cao would not be so embarrassed.

In this way, "filial piety" belongs to "filial piety", and it is indeed a way to prevent Boss Cao and Guan Yu from meeting.So Xiahou Dun and Yu Jin were also happy to see that He Yan was willing to accept Guan Yu's trouble.

As for the so-called credit for "capturing Guan Yu alive"...

Both of them have seen big scenes, and this little military achievement is not enough to make them greedy.

"Xu Hu Xu Bao, take General Guan down, remember to ask a few more soldiers to watch over him, don't let him commit suicide!"

Winning Wei Yan and Guan Yu in the First World War made He Yan happy, but the most important thing right now is Liu Bei.

After a few words of simple settlement, He Yan quietly approached Xiahou Dun and Yu Jin, wanting to hear their plans for the future war.

"I'm afraid Liu Bei has already entered the Xinye territory at this time, and I won't be able to chase him any longer!"

Yu Jin was not dazzled by this victory, but proposed to accept it as soon as it was good, and wanted to go back and improve the defensive system in Nanyang.

"Wen Ze! Since Liu Bei is the first grader, why can't we be the fifteenth grader? Just let him go, what if he continues to harass Nanyang in the future?"

Xiahou Dun had already been aroused by He Yan's words before, and he was particularly excited under the catalysis of victory.

"It's better to take advantage of this opportunity to eliminate Liu Bei directly! If Liu Biao does not have such a good fighter as Liu Bei, he will definitely not attack the Central Plains again due to his character! If this is the case, we can keep Nanyang safe for several years!"

Both Yu Jin and Xiahou Dun are not the kind of short-sighted generals. They understand that the initiation of a war still requires an overview of the overall situation before making a decision.

It is impossible to counterattack Jingzhou now, Cao Cao doesn't have the energy to spare.

But if it's just to kill Liu Bei, let alone Cao Cao's strength, even their current strength is promising!

Yu Jin weighed Xiahou Dun's words, and finally nodded in agreement with Xiahou Dun's statement.

"but……"

When deciding to save up for the pursuit, Yu Jin put another layer of insurance on Xiahou Dun.

"Once Liu Biao sends troops, we will retreat immediately!"

"it is good!"

Xiahou Dun didn't even think about using his strength to steel Liu Biao, his goal was only Liu Bei!

After the two leaders in the army reached an agreement, He Yan, the paddler, naturally had no objections, and expressed his willingness to follow the boss.

After cleaning the battlefield, Guan Yu and the surrendered soldiers including Wei Yan were handed over to Li Dian in the rear. Yu Jin repeatedly told Li Dian to ensure that the army had room to retreat before setting out to pursue Liu Bei again.

Because Liu Bei only had dozens of Qingqi fleeing ahead, Yu Jin asked He Yan and Lu Meng to lead [-] cavalry to pursue him first.

"As ordered!"

This military order can be said to have reached He Yan's heart.

He Yan feels that Liu Bei is like a cutie who is constantly dropping equipment.

Guan Yu and Wei Yan exploded this time, who knows what will explode next?
Zhao Yun?

Zhang Fei?

Or Mrs. Gan?
Wiping the saliva from the corner of his mouth, He Yan swung his spear: "Whoever catches up with Liu Bei will be rewarded with a thousand guan!"

"Here!"

------

Liu Bei in the front didn't know the outcome of the battle in the rear, but when Guan Yu was thrown under the red rabbit horse, he suddenly looked back on a whim.

"Long Yun!"

Looking at the empty wilderness behind him, Liu Bei felt depressed again.

"My lord, let's go!"

Seeing that Liu Bei's horse was slowing down gradually, Zhang Fei quickly waved his whip to whip Liu Bei's horse's ass.

"There are still more than ten miles away from Xinye! My lord must not disappoint Yunchang and Zilong!"

Hearing what Zhang Fei said, Liu Bei nodded immediately and continued to flee south.

The people on both sides are chasing after each other, and no one will let the other go. It can be called life and death.

But because Cao Jun was blocked by Guan Yu for too long, even He Yan ordered all the cavalry to eat fried noodles when they were hungry, and think of sour plums when they were thirsty, but they never caught up with Liu Bei.

It wasn't until He Yan could barely see the city wall of Xinye in a wilderness that He Yan had to let himself accept the fact that he had not caught up with Liu Bei.

Later, Xiahou Dun and Yu Jin came one after another, and when they saw many soldiers holding crossbows, bows and arrows standing on the wall of Xinye City, they all shook their heads, expressing their regret.

"Since Liu Bei fled to Xinye, we have nothing to do with him."

Xinye was selected by Liu Biao as the first line of defense against Cao Cao, not because of how powerful its location is.

In fact, Xinye is located in the center of Nanyang Basin, and the danger of mountains and rivers can be said to be almost non-existent.

But Xinye is a large county in Jingzhou, with complete fortifications, even in the face of an army of tens of thousands of people, it can persist for a period of time.

Now I want to attack Xinye with the strength of chasing Liu Bei... It is undoubtedly difficult for some strongmen.

He Yan stared at the city wall of Xinye, and the scene of chasing Liu Bei with Cao Ren and Man Chong a year ago is still vivid in his mind.

The last time it was because of Wenpin, everyone could only retreat unwillingly.

But this time...

He Yan took a deep breath: "Uncle Yuan Rang! General Yu, we must conquer Xinye!"
