In order to fight against Cao Ang, Yuan Shao took out almost all of his property and even moved his family to Jizhou.

Yuan Shao's wives and children totaled more than a hundred people, and this huge force made Yuan Shao extremely satisfied.

Only with the presence of these people could Yuan Shao have the confidence to fight Cao Ang.

The Wolf Fang Cavalry was extremely well equipped. Each soldier was equipped with a bow and arrow and a pistol. They rode on war horses, looking majestic and awe-inspiring, as if they were ancient fighting machines.

This group of fighting machines was officially provided to Yuan Shao by Cao Cao.

Cao Cao was worried that Yuan Shao would take revenge on him after defeating Cao Ang, so he provided Yuan Shao with this batch of equipment to help him overcome the difficulties.

These cavalrymen are elite soldiers selected by Cao Cao from various legions. They train every day for today's battle.

Their mission was to highlight their role in the war and let Yuan Shao know how aware Cao Cao was of the times.

The Wolf Fang Iron Cavalry had a total of 3,000 men, 1,000 of whom were infantrymen, and the other 2,000 were archers and sword and shield soldiers.

The strength of these people is unquestionable, especially their mounts.

The mount of the Wolf Fang Cavalry is a white horse with long and strong limbs, shiny fur, flowing mane, and four hooves stepping on fire, like a blazing flame rising into the sky.

The name of this horse is Wuhuan Horse. Its speed is comparable to that of a horse in the wind, and its endurance is also very strong. It can run continuously for thirty miles at high speed.

These soldiers were trained by Yuan Shao at great expense, and they were usually responsible for training.

Once an emergency occurs, the war horn will be sounded and the cavalry will charge quickly.

Yuan Shao mobilized all his cavalry here.

These cavalrymen were his last resort.

In Cao Ang's opinion, these cavalrymen were indeed extraordinary. They were indeed the most courageous cavalrymen of the Xiongnu.

Unfortunately, these cavalrymen were defeated by the brave and battle-hardened army under Cao Ang.

Zhang Xiu led three thousand cavalrymen and attacked Yuan’s camp directly.

When Yuan Shao saw Zhang Xiu attacking with his cavalry, a cruel smile appeared on his face.

"Pass the order down and prepare to meet the enemy."

Yuan Shao had been well prepared and had set up many ambushes.

Cao Ang and Yuan Shao stopped about eight miles apart.

"My lord, I am willing to be the vanguard!" Zhang Xiu volunteered first.

"Approved!" Cao Ang agreed to Zhang Xiu's request.

After receiving the order, Zhang Xiu rode out and shouted angrily: "You bandits, prepare to die!"

Yuan Shao snorted coldly, "Zhang Xiu, you dare to break into our army camp at night. Today I will let you know the benefits and disadvantages of my family."

Yuan Shao also rode out on his horse, wanting to capture Zhang Xiu himself to avenge last night's hatred.

When Zhang Xiu saw that Yuan Shao actually went into battle personally, he thought to himself: Yuan Benchu ​​really thinks highly of me!

Zhang Xiu showed no fear and charged forward with his 10-foot-tall snake spear.

"clang clang"

The two generals fought each other for hundreds of moves in the blink of an eye.

Yuan Shao felt Zhang Xiu's terrifying fighting power and was extremely surprised. It was terrifying that such a young general possessed such terrifying strength.

"Zhang Xiu, you little bastard, prepare to die." Yuan Shao shouted, and used all his strength and exerted all his power to chop at Zhang Xiu.

Zhang Xiu was also aroused and shouted, "Well done!"

Zhang Xiu wielded the Zhangba Snake Spear and fought against Yuan Shao.

"Puff!" Zhang Xiu found an opportunity and pierced Yuan Shao's armor with his halberd and stabbed it into Yuan Shao's chest. "You!?" Yuan Shao looked at Zhang Xiu in disbelief. He never expected that Zhang Xiu's attack would be so sharp that he didn't even have a chance to react.

Yuan Shao's blood dyed Zhang Xiu's Zhangba Snake Spear red, but Zhang Xiu did not hesitate at all. He pulled out the Zhangba Snake Spear with force and stabbed it at Yuan Shao again.

Yuan Shao's eyes widened and he fell down.

"Yuan Benchu, you are finally dead!" Zhang Xiu was very excited.

Zhang Xiu took back his Zhangba Snake Spear and ordered his men to clean up the battlefield.

Zhang Xiu's men quickly completed the cleanup work, and Zhang Xiu led his troops to Yuan's camp.

"Release your arrows, shoot Zhang Xiu to death!" Tian Feng, who was watching the battle on the side, shouted when he saw Yuan Shao being killed by Zhang Xiu.

In an instant, a torrential rain of arrows fell from the sky.

Zhang Xiu calmly dodged Yuan Shao's attacks and did not panic.

"Protect the lord and retreat!" Zhang Xiu gave the order.

Liu Xie and his guards jumped off their horses and retreated.

The personal guards of Zhang Xiu and Cao Ang were all veterans of battle. Under the leadership of Zhang Xiu, they quickly escaped from the battlefield.

When Tian Feng saw Liu Xie retreating, he immediately led his men to pursue him. However, Zhang Xiu and his men were not stupid either. They got rid of Tian Feng and his men in time and returned to the camp to rescue them.

Tian Feng was very angry at Zhang Xiu's behavior, and he ordered the archers to continue shooting arrows to stop Zhang Xiu.

Zhang Xiu led his men back again to rescue Liu Xie, but it was too late. Liu Xie had already been captured by Yuan's army.

"My lord!" Zhang Xiu became furious when he saw Liu Xie being captured.

Liu Xie's face was pale and he was trembling with fear facing the ferocious Yuan Shao.

Zhang Xiu immediately took his personal guards to rescue Liu Xie.

Zhang Xiu led his men and charged into Yuan Shao's camp. Yuan's soldiers were unable to stop Zhang Xiu and were quickly killed and dispersed.

Zhang Xiu led his men to rescue Liu Xie and then headed back.

"Zhang Wenyuan, don't run!" Tian Feng and his personal guards surrounded him.

Zhang Xiu snorted coldly: "Since you want to die, then I will grant your wish!"

With a sweeping blow, Zhang Xiu drove away Tian Feng and his personal guards who were surrounding him, and then rushed to his own troops with Emperor Liu Xie.

Zhang Xiu now only has three thousand personal guards left.

Tian Feng spat out a mouthful of blood foam, wiped off the blood, and watched Zhang Xiu's receding back with gritted teeth.

"Yuan Gonglu is such a loser! He can't even do such a simple thing." Tian Feng cursed in a low voice.

"Mr. Yuan Hao, what should we do now? Our lord has fallen into Yuan Shao's hands, and our army must take him back!" Cheng Pu suggested.

"Yuan Shao has 60,000 soldiers and our army has only 3,000 people. A head-on confrontation is hopeless. But our lord is in Yuan Shao's hands, and we must rescue him. I think we need to take a long-term view." Ju Su said.

Ju Su felt that Yuan Shao was too strong and that Zhang Xiu alone could not win.

"Mr. Yuan Hao, do you have any suggestions?" Cheng Pu asked.

Ju Su thought for a long time and said, "Zhang Xiu is a peerless warrior. He is definitely no match for Yuan Shao in a head-on battle, so we can only defeat him through strategizing.

Although Zhang Xiu was an excellent martial artist, he was too young and lacked experience.

As long as we plan carefully, I believe we can trap Zhang Xiu."

Ju Su's idea was similar to Yuan Shao's. He believed that Zhang Xiu was just a fierce general and that his lack of tactical experience led to his failure.

What Zhang Xiu lacked was not only strategic experience, but also the strength to match it. (End of this chapter)
