Three Kingdoms: Heir of Wolong, my father-in-law is Guan Gong

Chapter 264: Killing the Wei general Guan Yu, defeating Cao Ren and capturing four cities in a row (more updates on weekends, please seek monthly tickets)
Outside Tuoyang.

Cao Ren's stronghold is full of antlers.

The soldiers' armor is shining brightly, and the flags are moving in the clouds.

Inside the antlers, in the village.

The walking and riding formations are arranged in a circular formation, with three layers inside and three layers outside, which are strictly airtight.

Cao Ren, who spent half his life in the army, worked hard on setting up camp.

Soldiers and horses, grain and grass, baggage, antlers, stockade fences, flags, etc. are all in order.

Facing Guan Yu, Cao Ren did not dare to be careless.

Li Zhen, Le Wei, Shi Jing, Han Rong and other generals were patrolling the Dazhai in shifts, and Xiahou Shang led his cavalry to set up a separate village to support them.

Even so, Cao Ren was still worried about the safety of the camp.

"Although Wenyuan and Mancheng have passed away, their reputations still attract the spirit of thieves. They can be called the minions of the country."

This is why most of the civil and military descendants who followed Liu Bei in Jingzhou in the early days were very young.

After inspecting the camp, Cao Ren returned to the commander's tent with peace of mind.

It is common to march and fight for thirty to fifty days.

Although the confrontation with Guan Yu is now at a deadlock, Cao Ren also understands: the more important it is at such a critical moment, the less impatient he can be.

For example, Xu Shu, who was jealous of talents that day, was forced to part ways with Liu Bei because his mother was captured.

Those who hate Liu always think that Liu Bei is making excuses for the common people, but they don't know that the number of soldiers, horses and family members Liu Bei lost in this battle far exceeded ordinary people's estimates.

Guan Xing nodded: "It's gone."

Li Zhen responded solemnly: "General, don't worry, I will never slack off during the night patrol."

In the past, during the Changbanpo disaster, Liu Bei's civil and military forces lost most of their family members.

On the water.

There is both public hatred and private hatred.

On the way, he bumped into Li Zhen who was on patrol at night. Cao Ren warned carefully: "Guan Yu's warships are lying across the Feishui River, and they may land for a surprise attack at any time."

Although people joke that Zhao Yun only married in his forties, the real situation is often cruel and heartbreaking.

Cao Ren wore Zhongjia and inspected all parts of the camp with his sword in hand.

In short: Cao Ren's camp cannot be robbed; if you want to break the camp, you can only attack by force!
While pondering.

"If Guan Yu doesn't come, forget it. If he dares to rob the camp, he must know how powerful the general is."

"Don't slack off in the night patrol; if you slack off, the lives of more than 10,000 soldiers in this camp will be half-stepped into death."

The night frog crowed and time flew by.

As long as Wan Luo can be captured, anyone who can come back can be brought back!
For those who cannot come back, the inscription of the Luoyang Festival will have the name of the deceased!

In addition to completing Liu Bei's great cause, he also hopes to find survivors of the civil and military officials and their families who followed Liu Bei in his lifetime.

"As Mancheng's son, you must not lose the prestige of the Li family."

Some died, some were captured, and some got lost.

Guan Xing said in a lonely tone: "I don't know if I will see you again in this life. As long as I am not dead, I have to bring him back."

It’s gradually getting hotter in May in Juiyang.

Guan Yu wanted to capture Wanluo.

Liu Bei entered Jingzhou in 201, and Zhao Yun was unmarried in 208, which is unreasonable in itself.

"In the past, Wenyuan and Mancheng defeated hundreds of thousands of thieves with only 800 infantry. This has never been done since ancient times."

Guan Yu looked forward, and his tone was a bit colder: "As long as we can capture Wanluo, we can bring back anyone who can come back!"

Cao Ren praised without hesitation: "Very good!"

Feeling Guan Yu's determination, Guan Xing also clenched his fists.

Guan Xing came in light steps: "General, the military order has been conveyed; at the fourth watch, the troops will land in the south."

The night breeze is gentle.

Guan Yu stood on the warship, carefully scanning the firelight of Cao Ren's camp, silently observing and deducing the weaknesses of Cao Ren's camp.

Zhao Yun's sentence in the unofficial history, "A real man only worries about his fame and lack of success, so why worry about not having a wife?" is not the determination of a man who lost his wife.

The shame of Changbanpo will never be forgotten!
Wenwu, who joined Liu Bei's forces in the early stages, had strong sentiments for the Northern Expedition.

Li Zhen said excitedly: "Thank you for your love from the general! How can the last general fall into the legacy of my late father!"

Guan Yu, who had experienced many battles, could also see the power of Cao Ren's camp.

Guan Yu didn't answer but asked: "Has your anger subsided?"

Guan Yu sighed softly: "That's all right. The words of thieves and generals are meant to provoke anger; no one can tell whether they are true or false."

"The general is so stupid, why do you want to attack Cao Ren's camp tonight?"

Four updates.

The Jingzhou soldiers on the Feishui warship quietly landed on the south bank.

Guan Yu divided his troops into ten groups, commanded by ten men: Guan Xing, Fu Xu, Zong Xu, Fukuang, Mi Zhao, Zhuge Wang, Su Fei, Liao Hua, Wang Fu, and Shamoke.

Ten Jingzhou soldiers stormed Cao Ren's Nanzhai Gate and Dongzhai Gate.

Guan Yu led five hundred swordsmen to the other camp where Xia Hou was still there.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

The sudden cry of killing rang out in the night sky.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The rapid sound of war drums sounded in the camp.

Although the Han soldiers arrived suddenly, Li Zhen, who was on patrol at night, was not panicked.

While organizing the soldiers on night watch to fight back, they also beat the war drums to call out the troops in the camp.

Stay calm and orderly in times of crisis.

Young players like Guan Xing are growing up, and young players like Li Zhen are also growing up.

In the handsome tent.

Cao Ren stood up and cursed while wearing his clothes: "Guan Yu, a common man, I guessed that you would come to rob the camp; my camp cannot be robbed!"

Xia Houshang from another village heard the shouts of killing and led two thousand horsemen from the village to fight out.

As soon as he left the camp, he met Guan Yu.

"Xia Houshang, is your martial arts comparable to Yan Liang?" A cold voice sounded in the night.

Xiahou Shang humiliated Liu Bei. Although Guan Yu did not show his anger on his face, in his heart he had already listed Xiahou Shang on his must-kill list.

tonight.

The main general who stormed Cao Ren's camp was Guan Xing, not Guan Yu. In addition to defeating Cao Ren's cavalry in another camp, it was also because Xiahou was still in another camp!
Xiahou Shang clenched the Changshan in his hand, anger growing.

Guan Yu's words, "You, Xiahou Shang, are neither good at literature nor martial arts. You are a common man and a mediocre person, yet you bark in front of Guan. Guan has only seen such a shameless person in his life." Xiahou Shang was very angry.

Xiahou Shang waved and shouted: "I am in my prime, and I have two thousand horses; you, an old man, only have five hundred horses!"

"Tonight, I will kill you and let the world know that Guan Yu is just a sick tiger in his old age. What should he fear?"

Guan Yu's muscles and bones rang loudly, and the steel spear in his hand was bright and sharp: "Two thousand native chickens and tile dogs cannot save your life."

"Although Guan is old, it doesn't take much strength to kill a mediocrity like you."

Anger, contempt.

The two cavalry are on the verge of breaking out!
As soon as the battle began, Xiahou Shang felt the pressure from Guan Yu.

Guan Yu's five hundred cavalry charged directly towards Xiahou Shang's flag in an arrow formation.

The fierce style was completely different from what Xia Houshang had seen last time.

Last time, Guan Yu was determined to sharpen the four generals Guan Xing.

When facing Xiahou Shang's two thousand cavalry, they only adopted the most common roundabout tactics, focusing on containment.

This time, Guan Yu didn't think about containing him, he only wanted to defeat him.

For the cavalry, five hundred versus two thousand is not a military disadvantage.

The battle between highly mobile units is not about standing still and fighting in a small space.

Break out, make detours, break out again, and make detours again.

Who can master the rhythm of the battlefield will be the cavalry king on the battlefield!
Before Xiahou Shang could use the numerical advantage of the cavalry to control the rhythm of the battlefield, Guan Yu had already taken the lead.

Xiahou Shang's 2,000 cavalry faced Guan Yu's 500 cavalry, and it was impossible to form a situation of using more to defeat fewer.

On the contrary, due to Guan Yu's division and interruption, Xiahou Shang's cavalry had the disadvantage of being able to defeat more with less.

A large stream of Han water came from the corner of Xia Houshang's forehead, and he heard the sound of heavy breathing.

Xia Houshang's sense of direction was confused.

Dim moonlight, dim firelight.

Night fighting in such a harsh environment places extremely high demands on the overall quality of the cavalry.

The most critical of these is the sense of direction.

If you lose your sense of direction, you will not be able to remember the familiar path. If you cannot remember the path, you will run around like a headless fly.

The general is running around, and the cavalry under his command can only drift with the tide.

"General, Guan Yu is about to break out again!" the deputy general shouted urgently.

Xiahou Shang's cavalry has not yet formed its formation, but Guan Yu's cavalry has already completed its formation.

at this time.

There are less than three hundred cavalry around Xiahou Shang!

Xiahou Shang, who originally had two thousand cavalry, could mobilize less than three hundred at the moment!

After learning this data, Xia Houshang's eyelids jumped in shock: "Meet to the left!"

Xiahou Shang didn't dare to confront Guan Yu so stupidly. Seeing his own cavalry on the left, he quickly ordered to join up with the left.

Before Xiahou Shang could join up with the cavalry on the left, Guan Yu turned a corner and defeated Xiahou Shang's cavalry on the left first!
In Guan Yu's eyes, although Xiahou Shang's cavalry has strong horses and strong sergeants, their cooperation with each other is no different from that of chickens and dogs!
"General, Guan Yu is about to break out again!" the deputy general shouted again.

Xia Houshang yelled angrily: "Stop shouting, I can see it!"

Looking at Guan Yu's fierce cavalry, Xiahou Shang was even more frightened: My cavalry was scattered and unable to defeat them!
My mind was racing.

Xiahou Shang led his troops directly to the village gate.

Since you can't fight head-on, let's take advantage of the camp's location!
Guan Yu snorted coldly and led his cavalry to arrive at the village gate first.

next moment.

The school swordsman took out the short bow from his back and fired a round at Xia Houshang.

Xiahou Shang, who was caught off guard, could only barely avoid the oncoming arrows.

But the cavalry on the left and right were not so lucky.

The speed of the war horse is very fast, and the arrows thrown easily break through the light armor of the cavalry.

Being too fast can sometimes be the talisman of the King of Hell.

This wave of arrows left Xiahou Shang with less than a hundred riders!

Under normal circumstances, a wave of arrows would not cause so much damage.

Just because Xiahou Shang was anxious to enter the stronghold, Guan Yu took the lead.

Without enough time to stop, and with the darkness of the night, this group of Wei cavalry was no different than running directly into the rain of arrows!
This is Guan Yu's all-round crushing of Xiahou Shang in terms of battlefield experience and cavalry command!

"escape!"

The frightened Xia Houshang only had this thought in his mind!
In panic, Xiahou Shang was shot in the arm by a stray arrow.

When the long tree fell to the ground, Xiahou Shang let out a cry of pain, folded his saddle and walked away.

"Chase!" Guan Yu also rushed after him from his saddle, and shouted to the riders: "The one with the red scarf on the helmet is Xia Houshang, life or death!"

Shouts came and went.

Xia Houshang quickly threw down his helmet, tore off his conspicuous shirt, and took the opportunity to turn to the side road to let his guards attract attention on the main road.

Xiahou Shang, who thought he could escape with his life, didn't know that Guan Yu just did it on purpose.

The purpose is to make Xiahou Shang think he has a plan.

"Xia Houshang!"

Under the moonlit night, Guan Yu shouted like a tiger, making Xiahou Shang turn around subconsciously.

Xiahou Shang was so frightened that he almost lost his soul. Just when he was about to bend his bow and shoot back, his arm felt a sharp pain and he couldn't use any strength.

When he turned around to pat his horse, Guan Yu had already caught up.

"You are not as good as Yan Liang!"

A cold voice sounded in my ears.

Xia Houshang felt as if his whole body was flying off the horse. Before Xiahou Shang could stand up and struggle, Guan Yu's steel spear mercilessly stabbed Xiahou Shang in the neck.

"Anyone who insults a certain brother will die!"

When Guan Yu stabbed Xiahou Shang to death, the moonlight turned out to be much brighter at this moment.

The power of a tiger that cuts down thousands of armies is still there even in his twilight years.

After glancing at the lifeless Xia Houshang, Guan Yu snorted coldly, drew his horse and left.

Guan Yu didn't even bother to behead someone of Xiahou Shang's level to record his merits.

the other side.

The ten generals of Guan Xing were still attacking Cao Ren's camp.

Although Cao Ren's camp was well-defended, the ten generals of Guan Xing were not afraid of death.

"With such disregard for life and death, does Guan Yu want to completely defeat me tonight?" Cao Ren frowned.

The Han soldiers' offensive was somewhat beyond Cao Ren's expectations.

Under normal circumstances, when hijacking a camp at night and encountering the opponent's tight defense, they will almost always choose to temporarily withdraw their troops and fight another day.

It's just a hijacking of the camp, not a desperate attempt.

however.

The Han soldiers tonight are fighting Cao Ren desperately!

In shock and doubt.

Le Wei hurriedly came to report: "General, there are Chinese dogs appearing in the north."

"North?" Cao Ren was shocked: "Where did the Han dogs come from in the north?"

Further north of Tuoyang and up the Tuo River is Wancheng. This area is Cao Ren's control area.

Han soldiers appeared in Cao Ren's control area, so it would be better to just say that Wancheng surrendered.

"Did you see the flag clearly?" Cao Ren suppressed his shock and asked calmly.

Han soldiers appeared in the north, it is also possible that Guan Yu landed in the north.

Le Wei had a bitter look on his face: "They are Han Dog's unworthy flying army!"

Cao Ren was so shocked that he could barely hold the knife in his hand: "How come Han Dog's useless flying army came from the north?"

"Did Wancheng fall?"

"No, it's impossible!"

"Jiang Ji is cautious and well versed in military matters. It is impossible for him to lose Wancheng."

"In recent intelligence, there has been no trace of the Wudang Feijun."

Cao Ren was shocked and suspicious, so he quickly sent troops to the north of the camp to resist.

Before Cao Ren came to his senses, another person from the west came to report: "General, there is an army of Han dogs appearing in the west, about five thousand people. There are many flags and I don't know who is the leader."

Cao Ren felt his eyes go dark and staggered back two steps.

"Fell into a trap!"

"To the north is the Wudang flying army, and to the west is the Han dog army that wants to surprise Wancheng."

"Han Gou's target is not Wancheng, but me!"

"Guan Yu will confront me here, and the Han dogs will risk their lives tonight, all because Zhuge Qiao has mobilized all the soldiers and horses from Rang County here!"

"What a useless flying army! He was able to walk around Rang County and circle around Wancheng to surround and kill me!"

"This marching speed is even worse than Miao Cai!"

"What a Zhuge Qiao! He used rumors to force me out of the city and set up an ambush here, but I failed to see through it!"

Even a veteran like Cao Ren found it hard to accept being defeated by Zhuge Qiao twice in a row.

"Gather the generals and prepare to break out!"

Cao Ren calmed down and issued the military order with difficulty.

It is impossible for the Han army to be merciful when it mobilizes its troops in such a way.

As long as Cao Ren is still in this camp, the Han soldiers will not retreat.

But Cao Ren has no reinforcements!
In the nearest city of Anzhong, Cao Kaizheng strictly followed the military orders not to leave the city; although Wancheng had 20,000 soldiers, they could not come to Huoyang in a hurry.

Only by breaking out can we have a chance to survive.

If Cao Ren were killed here, Nanyang County and even the entire Cao Wei would be shaken!
Killing General Cao Ren will have no less influence than capturing Wan Luo!

Li Zhen, Le Wei, Shi Jing, Han Rong and other generals came one after another.

Cao Ren's words were concise and to the point: "I need a general to cut off the queen, who is willing to take on this important task?"

The generals were silent.

Cutting off means there is no way out!
After a while.

Li Zhen came out to ask for orders: "Li Zhen, the last general, is willing to cut off the throne for the general! The Li family in Chengxian County is not afraid of death!"

Li Dian died early, unlike the five sons who could live long after becoming famous.

As Li Dian's son, Li Zhen didn't want to fall into Li Dian's legacy.

Cao Ren looked at Li Zhen who was asking for orders and couldn't help but sigh.

A few hours ago, Cao Ren praised Li Zhen, but he never thought that a few hours later, Li Zhen would fight to the death to cut off the rear.

"I will report your achievements to Your Majesty." Cao Ren promised.

Li Zhen laughed: "General, take care!"

Le Wei, Shi Jing and Han Rong all said goodbye to Li Zhen.

It's not that the three of them are afraid of death, but the current situation means they can't all die here.

Cao Ren left two thousand soldiers with Li Zhen and led the generals to break out of the encirclement to the west.

The Wudang Feijun in the north is truly an elite force.

The west flags are messy and relatively weak.

Deng Kai's troops to the west were shocked when they saw Cao Ren leading his troops to break through.

Deng Kai's troops, such as Deng Kai, Wen Bu, Fan You, Wu Dang and Zeng Xia, were not good generals, and their soldiers and horses were not elite.

Facing Cao Ren's strong breakthrough, Fan You bore the brunt and was defeated by Cao Ren's powerful soldiers.

Deng Kai and Wen Bu both stepped forward and were entangled by Le Wei and Shi Jing.

Wu Dang and Zeng Xia are slightly more powerful, but they are not as good as Cao Ren.

A moment.

Cao Ren defeated the Han troops in the west. The force was so strong that Deng Kai and other generals were frightened: Cao Ren had already been defeated and broke through, how could he still be so brave?

Seeing that the Han army was about to fall apart, a cavalry roared in. It was Guan Yu who killed Xiahou Shang.

"Cao Renxiu, leave, Guan Yu is here!"

A person's name, the shadow of a tree.

The appearance of Guan Yu allowed the defeated Han soldiers to find their backbone.

Although Deng Kai and other generals are just ordinary generals, as long as Guan Yu appears, these ordinary generals can unleash extraordinary force.

A general will be brave as a soldier, and a general will be brave as well.

"The general is here! Capture Cao Ren!"

"Capture Cao Ren!"

"Capture Cao Ren!"

Suddenly, the morale of the Han soldiers was as high as flames.

Even Fan You, who was defeated first, was following Guan Yu with a knife.

Hearing Guan Yu's roar, Cao Ren's heart suddenly went cold.

If Guan Yu didn't show up just now, he must have gone to intercept Xiahou Shang.

Xiahou has not yet arrived but Guan Yu arrives first, which means that Xiahou Shang is very likely to be defeated!
"Don't be obsessed with fighting, hurry to Anzhong!"

Cao Ren did not dare to fight Guan Yu head-on, so he fled to Anzhong with his remaining soldiers.

An Zhong still has Cao Kai's 5,000 soldiers. If they join forces with Cao Kai, Cao Ren will be able to fight again.

rear.

The ten tribes of Guanxing and Wudang Feijun rushed into the camp.

Seeing that Li Zhen was stubbornly resisting, the ten tribes of Guanxing gathered together with Wudang Feijun to forcibly kill the resisting Wei soldiers.

Although Li Zhen was brave, how could two thousand soldiers withstand six or seven times the number of Han soldiers?

Guan Xing chopped down Li Zhen with one blow.

After the Han soldiers killed the recalcitrant Wei soldiers, they chased Cao Ren westward.

Cao Ren led the remaining soldiers and ran in a hurry through the woods. He was followed by only a few hundred horsemen, and the rest of the soldiers either fell behind or were separated.

even so.

Guan Yu behind him is also chasing after him!
"Am I going to die here?" Cao Ren couldn't help crying.

between crises.

But Cao Kai led his troops to fight out: "General, don't worry, Cao Kai is here!"

Cao Ren was overjoyed when he saw this. He quickly joined forces with Cao Kai and asked, "Cao Kai, why are you here?"

Seeing that Cao Ren was fine, Cao Kai breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I was stationed at Anzhong City, but a man came to the city last night. He said that the general had been trapped by a trap, and asked me to quickly lead troops to rescue him."

"I was worried about being deceived and couldn't believe it, so I sent another scout to look for the general in Tuoyang. I found that the general was fighting with the Han soldiers."

"So I mobilized all my troops to come to the rescue."

Cao Ren frowned: "Do you know who that person is?"

Cao Kai shook his head: "I don't know! When the man saw that I didn't believe it, he left."

Cao Ren pondered for a moment, then his expression changed drastically: "No! You are missing out on An Zhong, go to An Zhong quickly!"

This was not the first time Cao Ren encountered this trick.

When Guan Yu went to Duoyang, he left a sign for Cao Ren: Cao Ren, I am going to fight against Duoyang.

As soon as Cao Ren was attacked by surprise last night, someone went to notify Cao Kai for reinforcements. This was for fear that Cao Kai would not know that Cao Ren was attacked!

Cao Kai's expression also changed and he quickly led his troops back to Anzhong City.

As soon as he arrived at Anzhong City, he saw random arrows being shot down from the city.

One general stands in the middle, it is Zhuge Qiao!
Zhuge Qiao shook his fan and laughed: "Cao Ren, I will accept this Anzhong City."

"You have to thank me, otherwise your stupid son Cao Kai wouldn't even know to send troops to rescue you."

Cao Kai was furious and wanted to lead troops to attack the city.

Cao Ren ordered: "Don't be reluctant to fight, hurry to Wancheng!"

Although defeated, Cao Ren knew very well that Zhuge Qiao's deployment would not be so simple!
Seeing that Cao Ren was about to flee, the rapid beating of war drums sounded from the top of the city.

The two ambushes who came out were Zhang Bao, Wei Chang, Huo Yi, Zhao Tong and others.

Most of the troops and horses that Zhuge Qiao could mobilize were used to besiege Cao Ren. Only the new army from Jiangwu Hall had not yet entered the battlefield.

Although the new army's combat effectiveness is not strong, it is enough to bluff people!
"go!"

When Cao Ren saw the ambush troops coming out, he did not dare to stay and entangle them.

If you wait for Guan Yu to lead his army, you won't be able to leave!
Seeing Cao Ren escaping, Zhuge Qiao looked solemn: "Send the order, don't pursue the poor bandits! Take the three cities of Nieyang, Juiyang and Jiyang quickly!"

The most taboo thing in a military war is greed for power and rash advancement.

After failing to capture and kill Cao Ren outside Tuoyang, there was no point in continuing to let the troops pursue Cao Ren.

After capturing the three cities of Niyang, Juiyang and Jiyang, Cao Ren no longer had any city to defend to the south of Wancheng!
Zhuge Qiao's military order quickly spread throughout the army.

Guan Yu, who was under the city, immediately decided and divided his troops into three groups to capture the three cities of Niyang, Juiyang and Jiyang.

Within one day.

The three cities of Nieyang, Juiyang and Jiyang were all captured by Han soldiers.

The people of Nanyang County south of Wancheng heard the news and descended.

Cao Ren only led hundreds of cavalry and fled back to Wancheng in panic.

The losses in this battle are difficult to estimate.

Except for Cao Ren and several hundred cavalry who fled back to Wancheng, the number of defeated troops who escaped within three days was less than 5,000!
He also learned that the three cities of Nieyang, Chuoyang and Jiyang were lost. Cao Ren was so ashamed and angry that he vomited blood and fell down.

"Zhuge Villager!"
