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

You just need to take good care of yourself.”

Lu Bu nodded, he knew that what Cao Ang said made sense.

"The time is almost up. Pass the order and set off!" Cao Ang decisively gave the order to attack.

Afterwards, Cao Ang's five thousand elite soldiers were divided into four groups and rushed in all directions.

In the woods three miles away from Xiangyang City, Lu Bu hid behind a huge rock, quietly waiting for news from Cao Ang.

Next to him was a young man named Chen Gong, who was a counselor appointed by Cao Ang to assist Lü Bu in battle.

"My lord, you have sent cavalry to attack Xiangyang City. I wonder whether your cavalry can successfully capture Xiangyang City." Chen Gong asked.

Lu Bu said, "Don't worry, Lord Xuande is a man of both wisdom and courage, and there will be no mistakes.

But for you, Gongtai, I'm afraid this mission is not easy.

Xiangyang City is heavily fortified and is also a granary, with strong garrison. I am worried that it will be difficult for Lord Xuande's cavalry to break into Xiangyang City."

"Don't worry, my lord. Gongtai is confident that we can capture Xiangyang City within the time of an incense stick." Chen Gong said with a smile.

The old fox Chen Gong had anticipated this situation long ago, because he knew that Jingzhou had huge reserves of grain and fodder.

Lu Bu asked in confusion, "What are your plans?"

Chen Gong said mysteriously: "My lord, please be patient, you will know soon."

Seeing this, Lu Bu could only wait patiently.

Led by Cao Ang, his cavalry quickly arrived at the city of Xiangyang.

Cao Cao in Xiangyang City had already received the intelligence from Huang Zhong and Gan Ning and had made preparations, even ambushing a large number of scouts around Xiangyang.

When Cao Ang's cavalry appeared, they were discovered by scouts from Xiangyang City.

"Enemy attack!!"

"Quickly notify the archers in the city to shoot the enemies!!"

Alarms sounded in the city one after another, and Cao Cao immediately knew that his chance had come.

"Pass the order down and prepare to attack!" Cao Cao shouted excitedly.

Soon, Cao Cao personally climbed onto the city wall and commanded the archers to attack.

Since Cao Ang's cavalry was larger in number and had an extremely fast speed, Cao Cao's archers simply could not catch up with them.

"Damn it! It's cavalry!" Cao Cao cursed. Cao Ang's cavalry was too fast. Cao Cao's archers could only follow from a distance. It was impossible to get close.

Cao Ang's cavalry rushed towards Xiangyang City.

"Shield soldiers, push forward!" Cao Cao roared.

Suddenly, a shield appeared in front, forming a solid barrier.

Cao Ang's cavalry charged into Cao Cao's shield soldiers without hesitation, and the shield soldiers collapsed instantly.

Cao Cao's shield soldiers were completely unable to withstand the cavalry charge and were soon killed.

Cao Ang's cavalry continued to advance.

Cao Cao angrily yelled, "Asshole! Hurry up and organize troops to intercept them!"

The generals under Cao Cao were all panicked. They had never encountered such a scene before and for a moment they forgot to give orders.

Cao Ang took the opportunity to lead his cavalry into Cao Cao's army, and Cao's army suffered heavy losses again.

Cao Ang continued charging until he reached the city of Xiangyang before stopping.

"Haha! Cao Mengde! Your doomsday has come!" Cao Ang's arrogant laughter came from his warhorse.

When Cao Cao heard Cao Ang's voice, he felt sick all over.

"How could this be?!" Cao Cao was extremely surprised. Cao Cao couldn't believe what was happening before his eyes. Cao Ang's cavalry actually charged into the city.

Cao Ang was even more proud when he saw Cao Cao's dumbfounded look. He knew that his cavalry had defeated Cao Cao's cavalry.

Cao Cao came back to his senses, looked at Cao Ang coldly, and asked loudly: "Cao Ang! How did you do it?"

"Haha, do you think I would really be so stupid as to attack with infantry?" Cao Ang showed a sarcastic smile.

"Are you showing weakness on purpose? You treacherous guy! Despicable and shameless!" Cao Cao said angrily.

Cao Ang shook his head and said, "I really wanted to test Cao Mengde's reaction. Yes, I did not let the infantry attack."

"Hmph, so your performance just now was a lie to me?" Cao Cao asked unhappily.

Cao Ang shook his head and said, "Of course not. I performed that just now to paralyze the enemy so that my troops could sneak up on Xiangyang in secret."

Cao Cao understood. It turned out that Cao Ang was deceiving him. Damn it! Cao Cao's expression changed unpredictably.

When Cao Ang saw Cao Cao's expression, he said even more arrogantly, "Cao Mengde, you are very courageous.

I'll tell you right now, my target is not just Xiangyang City. Didn't you, Cao Mengde, occupy Yanzhou, Xuzhou and Yangzhou?
I will destroy your hometown Yanzhou. Then you will be left alone! Haha."

Cao Ang's outrageous words irritated Cao Cao, who flew into a rage and roared, "Cao Ang! Don't even think about it! I will never allow this to happen!"

"You don't allow it? But I want it to happen? I don't believe that a mere Yanzhou can stop my iron hoof." Cao Ang said arrogantly.

"You." Cao Cao was so angry that he felt like a huge stone was blocking his throat and he felt extremely uncomfortable.

Cao Cao took a few deep breaths to calm himself. He knew that Cao Ang's cavalry was powerful, and his own cavalry was also elite.

But they definitely could not defeat Cao Ang's cavalry, so they had to rely on other forces.

Cao Cao looked at the guards around him and shouted, "Come here! Gather all the civil officials and military officers to discuss how to resist the enemy!!"

"Yes!" Some guards hurried away to carry out the order.

Cao Ang's cavalry quickly rushed into the south gate of Xiangyang City and fought with the guards at the gate.

Cao Cao's guards fought desperately to defend Xiangyang, but unfortunately the strength gap between the two sides was so great that they could not resist at all.

In the end, all the guards at the gate of Xiangyang City were killed by Cao Ang's cavalry.

"Haha! Kill! Don't leave any one alive!" Cao Ang roared madly.

The cavalry began to slaughter the defenders of Xiangyang City.

This was the last defensive section of Cao's army. The guarding soldiers were all the most elite troops under Cao Cao, and Cao Ang's cavalry could not kill them all in a short time.

Cao Ang frowned when he saw this scene. He knew that if he didn't destroy Xiangyang City today, he would have to pay a huge price to capture Xiangyang City.

"Break through the city gate! Don't leave anyone behind!" Cao Ang decided to use the air force.

Cao Ang sent out 5,000 Flying Bear troops and 20,000 cavalry to launch a fierce attack on the north gate of Xiangyang.

The north gate of Xiangyang was the weakest link. Under the joint attack of the air force and cavalry, the defenders of the north gate were defeated.

Cao Ang rode his Snow-Treading Cloud Horse to the north gate and fired a shot at the defenders.

Cao Ang's powerful momentum frightened Cao Cao's soldiers and caused them to flee, while Cao Ang's cavalry took the opportunity to attack them.

When Cao Cao saw that Cao Ang had actually entered Xiangyang alone, he quickly issued an order: "Order the soldiers in each camp to follow me to fight Cao Ang!"

The east gate of Xiangyang was also attacked by Cao Ang's cavalry. Cao Cao's reinforcements had only more than 100 people and were quickly defeated by Cao Ang's attack.

Cao Ang took advantage of the victory and pursued the enemy straight to the east gate.

Cao Cao retreated into Xiangyang City with the remaining troops.

Cao Ang led his cavalry into Xiangyang City in a very majestic manner.

The people in Xiangyang were overjoyed to see Cao Ang had actually entered Xiangyang. (End of this chapter)
