Three Kingdoms: I, the eldest son of Cao, a loving father of a great man!

"Huang Zhong, if you die, I will take care of your family, don't worry." Xia Houyuan said lightly.

"Pfft!"

Xia Houyuan pulled out his spear, and Huang Zhong slowly knelt on the ground.

"Bang!" Huang Zhong's body hit the ground.

Xia Houyuan breathed out and looked at the corpse in front of him, with a smile on his face.

From the moment he agreed to seek refuge with Cao Ang, he had already made plans to die.

Although his condition is very poor now, he can be proud of being able to kill a top general for Cao Ang.

Huang Zhong's body fell to the ground, and blood slowly flowed on the ground.

"Lord! Fortunately, the last general has fulfilled his mission and killed the traitor general Huang Zhong." Xia Houyuan sighed.

Afterwards, Xia Houyuan left with his army.

After Xia Houyuan left, Huang Zhong's soldiers hurriedly came out, looked at the body of their general and cried.

Many defenders looked at the corpse of their general, their eyes were red, and tears could not stop flowing out.

They didn't expect that their general would die because of them.

"General, what should we do, what should we do?" Some soldiers shouted sadly.

"General, you died unjustly. General, we want to avenge you."

"Kill all these sons of bitches! Kill all these sons of bitches!"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Not only the defenders, but also other ordinary people cried, they were frightened.

They had never seen such a horrific scene and they were afraid they would experience it themselves.

On the other side, Cao Cao is commanding the army to continue to attack the city.

Suddenly Cao Cao received a secret letter. After reading the secret letter, Cao Cao's expression changed unexpectedly.

"Prime Minister, what happened?" Guo Jia asked in confusion.

"Fengxiao, how long do you think Huang Zhong can last?" Cao Cao asked. At this time, he didn't know that the other party had been killed.

"Huang Zhong? He is just a martial artist. No matter how powerful he is, it will only last for three or four days at most.

If there is no food supply, he will definitely collapse, and we will easily capture Xiling by then. "Guo Jia said disdainfully.

Cao Cao shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Fengxiao, you are wrong. Huang Zhong is not simple. Do you think he is just a warrior? He is a man of profound strategy."

"A profound strategy?" Guo Jia became even more confused.

Cao Cao sighed: "During this period, I have been sending scouts to monitor Huang Zhong and found that the number of soldiers under Huang Zhong's command continued to increase.

There are thousands of people in each increase, and they are well-trained and more powerful than ordinary elite troops. "

"Isn't this strange? Huang Zhong is a fierce general, so it's natural for his soldiers to be stronger." Guo Jia said speechlessly.

Cao Cao shook his head: "No, Huang Zhong cannot have only these soldiers. I suspect that Huang Zhong secretly recruited many young men to form a new army.

Now his troops have surpassed the cavalry of our Cao family's direct line, reaching about 50,000.

These new troops are well-equipped and well-trained. like"

Hearing Cao Cao's words, Guo Jia was stunned.

He recalled it carefully, and it was indeed the case. The soldiers under Huang Zhong's command give people an elite feeling.

This kind of equipment definitely cannot be formed overnight, unless Huang Zhong has already had this plan.

Guo Jia was silent for a moment and asked: "Prime Minister, what should we do next?"

"Huang Zhong is so desperate, we must stop him. Send an order to all the legions to delay Huang Zhong. At any cost." Cao Cao ordered.

"Yes!" Guo Jia nodded and accepted the order.

Cao Cao looked at Xiling City and murmured: "I want you to understand that this city belongs to me, Cao Cao."

Lu Bu led his army all the way south. Along the way, Cao Cao's scouts were killed by Lu Bu.

Lu Bu's army was so powerful that he captured three counties in one day.

Cao Cao is extremely anxious. Xilingcheng and Xiping counties are already in crisis. If this continues, Cao Cao will definitely be defeated by then. "Father! I invite you to fight." Cao Pi stood up and clasped his fists at Cao Cao.

Cao Cao frowned and said, "Pi'er, where are you going?"

"Father, I want to lead a partial army and take the opportunity to sneak attack Lu Bu's main force." Cao Pi said confidently.

"Oh?" Cao Cao was confused and asked, "Why do you suddenly send troops to attack?"

Cao Pi said: "My son once fought against Lu Bu and found that Lu Bu's strength is not as strong as I thought. As long as we join forces together, we will definitely be able to defeat Lu Bu."

After hearing this, Cao Cao began to think deeply. He knew very well that Lu Bu's strength should not be underestimated, but after thinking about it, he thought about it.

He rejected Cao Pi's proposal: "Lü Bu's main targets this time are Xiling City and Xiping City. If you go out rashly, you will definitely attract Lu Bu's attention.

When the time comes, Lu Bu will turn his gun against you. In this case, our plan will fail.

Moreover, Lu Bu's army has captured Dongping and Le'an, and is now approaching Xuchang. We must resist Lu Bu's attack with all our strength and cannot disperse our forces. "

"Then father, do you mean you don't plan to send troops?" Cao Pi said with some disappointment.

"No, since Lu Bu attacked the city, we can also attack the city, but not from the east gate." Cao Cao said calmly.

"Father, you mean from the west?" Cao Pi's eyes lit up and he said in surprise.

"Not bad." Cao Cao looked at his eldest son with a smile: "I know that you are a brave general, Pi'er. This time I am going to let you command the army to attack the city."

"Thank you, father." Cao Pi suddenly became excited.

"Hahaha."

Cao Cao laughed, and he knew that his eldest son was the most suitable.

After Cao Pi received the order, he immediately summoned his lieutenants to prepare for the expedition.

Soon, Cao Pi gathered 80,000 troops and launched an attack on Xiling City.

Lu Bu also got the news and looked ugly.

"Lord, what should we do now? Cao Cao is determined to destroy us." Pang De said worriedly.

Lu Bu sighed and said, "There is no other way. Send the order and all the troops will be dispatched.

Hurry at full speed and be sure to capture Xiling City first. "

When Pang De heard this, he could only agree reluctantly.

"Boom!"

Just when Lu Bu gave the order, there was an explosion and a loud noise throughout Xiling City.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

The soldiers guarding the city wall shouted.

"Quickly, close the city gate and prepare the archers to meet the enemy."

"The shield-bearers defend, the crossbowmen aim and shoot."

For a moment, the defenders of Xiling City became panicked, and Cao Jun's soldiers on the tower quickly took action.

But just as Cao Jun was getting ready, he encountered Lu Bu's army charging.

"kill!"

Lu Bu roared angrily and led the troops into Cao's army.

The other generals also followed Lu Bu into Cao's army.

Although Cao's army had an advantage, it was weak because of Lu Bu's brutality.

In just a few waves of attacks, many Cao soldiers suffered heavy casualties.

Cao Cao also saw the situation in Xiling City, with a solemn look on his face, and he immediately ordered his soldiers to fire arrows.

"Whoosh." Arrows rained down from the sky, covering the outside of the city.

Seeing this, Lu Bu waved his halberds to deflect the sharp arrows.

"Shield soldiers, raise your shields to defend!" Lu Bu shouted angrily.

Suddenly, hundreds of shield bearers raised their large shields to protect themselves around him. (End of chapter)
