The Super Summoning System of the Three Kingdoms
Chapter 142 Burning Xingyang
Chapter 142 Burning Xingyang
Cao Cao excitedly patted Lin Yu's shoulder and said, "Your words are right, this time you first rescued the princess, and then discovered the Xiliang army's ambush. You really did a great job!"
"The plan of the Xiliang army was to lure our army into the depths, so he threw away his helmet and armor to lure us to continue the pursuit, and then he returned to the army to fight with us, while the Xiliang army hidden on both sides of the mountain threw dry firewood on the official road, Rolling Stone, when the time comes, we will set the fire, and then we will have no way out, we can only be burned alive!"
After Cao Cao thought about it for a while, he revealed the intention of the Xiliang Army.
"It's such a vicious strategy. If it wasn't for Lin Yu, if we walked over in a daze, I'm afraid we would be buried in the sea of fire!" Xia Houdun said with lingering fear.
"Haha, now that I know the intentions of the Xiliang soldiers in advance, I'm afraid it's not us, but them who were buried in the flames!" Cao Cao laughed loudly.
"General Cao has a plan to deal with Xiliang soldiers?" Lin Yu immediately asked excitedly.
"That's right, but you can't participate anymore. Now that the princess is here, you have to escort her back!" Cao Cao looked at Lin Yu and smiled.
"Ah? Why me? Aren't there many soldiers here?" Lin Yu suddenly said displeased.
Lin Yu was quite loved and valued by Liu Bian. Cao Cao knew that Liu Bian had a crush on Lin Yu, not to mention that Princess Wannian was also here. Cao Cao did not dare to let the two of them take risks, so he asked Lin Yu to escort Princess Wannian back to Luoyang.
"Cao Mengde, do you look down on me? I have been learning swordsmanship from Master Wang since I was a child. When it comes to kung fu, you are no match for me. What's more, I beheaded most of the Xiliang soldiers who chased me along the way! Going into battle to kill the enemy is nothing more than a trivial matter! I don’t need to go back, I want to kill Xiliang soldiers with you!” Princess Wannian shouted softly while playing with her sword.
Cao Cao suddenly had a headache. A Liu Bian, who was always on the imperial conquest, although he had to do it, made Cao Cao fearful. Now there is another Wannian princess, who is actually another heroine.
However, while having a headache, Cao Cao was a little relieved that Liu Bian dared to fight in all directions, unlike the previous emperor Liu Hong who was weak and incompetent, he must be the next great ancestor Guangwu.And Princess Wannian is not left behind, and the Han Dynasty has produced a large number of talents. It seems that ZTE has hope.
However, even if Princess Wannian is as brave as Yang Miaozhen, Cao Cao would not dare to put her in danger. He immediately shook his head and said, "Princess, don't get angry. You are a body of ten thousand gold. Swords and guns have no eyes on the battlefield. I dare not use them." The princess's safety is just a joke! However, His Majesty's army is behind Luoyang. They rested last night. They should start their journey now, and they will arrive in less than two hours! The princess can go to see her majesty first. There are many soldiers around her, so she can protect her from any danger! "
"Lin Yu, escort the princess back to Luoyang to meet His Majesty!" Cao Cao said with a straight face.
"This..." Lin Yu's expression turned bitter.
"Hmph, I can go back without you sending me!" Princess Wannian snorted coldly, snatched Lin Yu's horse beside her, got on the horse, and rode eastward.
"You guys, hurry up and escort the princess back to Luoyang!" Cao Cao hurriedly pointed at several Han cavalrymen.
Dozens of cavalrymen from the Han army rode out immediately, chasing Princess Wannian.
"And you..." Cao Cao pointed at Lin Yu again, wanting him to go back.
"General Cao, master, I can't go there. The mountain road over there is rugged, and I have to show you the way!" Lin Yu immediately thought of an excuse.
"Well, okay!" Cao Cao nodded, agreeing that Lin Yu would stay. Lin Yu's martial arts skills are already extraordinary, no worse than ordinary school captains, not to mention that his plan requires the cooperation of people who are familiar with the terrain.
"Brother, you have been going around for a long time, how are you going to deal with Xiliang soldiers?" Xiahou Dun who was next to him asked anxiously.
"The soldiers from Xiliang intend to set us on fire, so let's do whatever we can, and deal with them in the same way!" Cao Cao sneered.
"How to fight, please tell the general!" Yang Zaixing cupped his hands.
"Ha, good! Since you are familiar with the terrain, Lin Yu, take Yuan Rang and Miaocai and lead 5000 people to the previous place, and set a fire in the forest for me! And I will lead two generals, Yang Zaixing and Yang Yansi, Leading [-] cavalry still follow the official path and go to lure the enemy!" Cao Cao said in a deep voice.
"But there are tens of thousands of Zhang Liao's Xiliang army in Xingyang. What if they find out that there is a fire here and come back to help?" Xia Houyuan frowned.
"Fighting on the battlefield is ever-changing. If everything goes according to the plan, how can we fight? Let's plunder Xu Rong's 2 men who are in ambush first, and then play by ear!" Cao Cao said in a deep voice.
Cao Cao's use of troops lies in a deceitful word, and the soldiers are deceitful. Cao Cao's use of troops has never been done step by step, so few people can understand Cao Cao's meaning.
Since Xu Rong's 2 soldiers and horses are ambushing in the valleys on both sides of Xingyang, as long as they are caught by surprise, they can be wiped out, so the [-] soldiers and horses will be wiped out first.And Zhang Liao's [-] troops are invincible, so avoid their edge first!
"Okay! That's it!" Yang Zaixing and the others, all of them with bold personalities, immediately agreed.
"Well, Yuanrang Miaocai, you guys go ahead! A certain family walks slowly on the main road!" Cao Cao nodded.
"It's brother! Come with me!" Brothers Xiahouyuan and Xiahoudun got off their horses and led 5000 horses, led by Lin Yu, to the high mountains outside Xingyang.
The group of people concentrated their spirits, and not long after they walked, Lin Yu pointed to a place and said: "General Miaocai, I just saw that you can go around to the other side of the mountain from here, but Xiliang soldiers are ambushing you on both sides of the mountain! You can take a detour from here to Lingyibian, and then we will set fire on both sides at the same time!"
"Okay!" Xia Houyuan looked at the terrain, nodded, and separated the general Han army to detour to the other side of the mountain.
Cao Cao, who was on the official road, looked at the remaining Han cavalry around him and said, "Our three thousand cavalry are not very aggressive. Cut down a lot of bushes on both sides and tie them to the horse's tail, creating a scene of tens of thousands of cavalry galloping!"
Cao Cao used this trick in the battle between Li Xianzhong and Lu Bu, but he is not afraid to use it more than a good strategy.Cao Cao used these strategies again.
Not long after, three thousand Han troops felled the bushes and tied more than 8000 horses to the bushes.
Cao Cao got on his horse and brought three thousand cavalry with him, and the five thousand horses galloped forward. After a while, smoke and dust filled the sky, as if there were tens of thousands of cavalry.
Here Xiahouyuan and Xiahoudun each led more than 2000 horses, and detoured from the mountain road to the mountains on both sides.
"General Yuan Rang, look, the Xiliang army is ambushing there!" Lin Yu said softly, pointing to the Xiliang army ambushing in the mountain below.
Because the Xiliang soldiers who were ambushing were all looking at the official road below calmly, and the Han army walked in the hidden mountains and forests, they didn't find it at all.
"Good guy, if it wasn't for you, they would have taken it all at once!" Xiahou Dun said in a deep voice, looking at the densely packed Xiliang army in the valley.
"Look over there, it's General Meng De coming!" Lin Yu said, pointing to the sky full of smoke and dust rising in front of the official road.
Xiahou Dun followed Lin Yu's direction and saw Cao Cao leading three thousand cavalry emerging from the official road, followed by dust flying all over the sky.
"Come on, let me set the fire! Burn these Xiliang thieves to death!" Xia Houdun immediately led the Han army, and went down quietly, preparing to set fire to the mountain.
Looking around below, Cao Cao saw that the surrounding area was full of bushy valleys, and upwards, there were relatively steep peaks.
Cao Cao nodded and said secretly: "This is indeed an excellent place to ambush."
Seeing this scene, Cao Cao stopped on purpose, whispered a few times to the scouts, and then saw several scouts galloping out, as if to detect news.
In the mountain depression, a Xiliang captain next to Xu Rong frowned and said, "General, they sent scouts over here, what should we do?"
Xu Rong sneered and said: "The leader still knows the art of war, but there are overgrown bushes here, the scouts come in and out, just tell the brothers to hide!"
Sure enough, as if to verify what Xu Rong said, the dozens of scouts patrolled the official road at random, and then returned to the formation.
"General Zaixing, when the fire breaks out on the mountain, you will lead a thousand cavalry to guard the road on the left, and don't let the Xiliang soldiers go down to the road. General Yansi, you will lead a thousand soldiers to guard the valley on the right!" Cao Cao said in a low voice. ordered.
"Understood!" Yang Yansi said with a smirk.
This strategy is also quite vicious, if you keep your hands on the official road, the Xiliang soldiers will only be trapped in the sea of flames alive.And if Xiliang soldiers fled to the mountains, but the fire was originally set off from the mountains, and when the fire in the depression decreased, the mountains would burn up. If Xiliang soldiers entered the mountains, they would only be burned to death by the fire.
"General, why don't they come over?" The school lieutenant next to Xu Rong asked urgently when he saw that Cao Cao was not marching.
"I'm afraid he's weighing things up! Don't worry!" Xu Rong said in a deep voice.
While Xu Rong was waiting, Xiahouyuan and Xiahoudun touched the depressions on both sides and set fire to them.
"The general is not good, there is a fire on the opposite side!" The school lieutenant next to Xu Rong suddenly found a fire in the opposite mountain depression.
"What are you doing? How did you expose yourself?" Xu Rong asked in confusion.
"No, there's a fire behind us!"
"what happened?"
"Who set the fire?"
At this time, the weather was dry, the bushes were overgrown, and there was a lot of withered grass. In order to deal with the Han army, Xiliang soldiers accumulated a lot of dry firewood in the mountain depression.With the fire together, the mountain depressions on both sides suddenly burned.On the contrary, most of the mountain peaks are towering ancient trees, which cannot be burned for a while.
"Kill me!"
Yang Zaixing and Yang Yansi, each leading a thousand Han troops, charged towards the cols on both sides.
But after a while, raging fires ignited in the cols on both sides.On both sides, [-] Xiliang soldiers were engulfed in flames.
Before the battle, many Xiliang soldiers were burned by the fire, and the Xiliang soldiers suddenly became chaotic, screaming and shouting.
"General, what should we do?" The lieutenant next to Xu Rong waved his spear, desperately flying the dry wood and bushes around him, and looked anxiously at Xu Rong.
"Rush to the official road!" Xu Rong saw that there were still only 3000 troops including Cao Cao below him, and guessed that there were so many people on his side, as long as he rushed down the official road, he could still escape.
"Follow me!" Xu Rong held a spear, and was about to rush down the official road with the Xiliang soldiers who were deeply engulfed in flames behind him.
In the mountain forest, Lin Yu saw that Xu Rong was about to break through, and was about to rush down to fight with a spear in his hand, but was stopped by Lin Yu.
"General Yuan Rang, why are you dragging me?" Lin Yu looked at Xiahou Dun suspiciously.
"You're dying, kid?" Xiahou Dun scolded.
"Charging downward at this time, we can cooperate with General Cao internally and externally, and wipe out the Xiliang traitors in one fell swoop!" Lin Yu was puzzled.
"As the saying goes, fire and water are ruthless. Even if there are many soldiers and horses, they can't resist these two things! Didn't you see the bushes in the mountain depression? Although they are fierce at this time, they will disappear after a while. It will burn on the mountain, if you go down to fight, once you are entangled in the fire, how will you get out?" Xiahou Dun explained.
"Now we should go down the mountain quickly and avoid the fire on the official road! Mengde has already guarded the official road below, these Xiliang soldiers deserve to be burned to death by the fire!"
Lin Yu looked towards the col, and saw that the fire was fierce and tight, and the dry wood was burning, like fire dragons, sweeping over the Xiliang army, causing the Xiliang army to scream again and again.
Lin Yu couldn't help shivering. If he attacked at this time, once he was entangled by Xiliang soldiers, his army might also be buried in the flames.
"Quick, let's withdraw then!" Lin Yu said hastily.
"Let's go, brothers, retreat!" Xiahou Dun waved his big hand, leading the Han army to detour and retreat down the mountain.At the same time, on the other side of the mountain, Xia Houyuan, who set fire to the fire, also led the Han army to withdraw to the official road by detour.
Below, Xu Rong led the Xiliang army to rush down the official road.
Where Xu Rong is located is the col on the right, above the official road, guarded by Yang Yansi.Xu Rong didn't know Yang Yansi, and thought he was an unknown person. Although Xu Rong had no horses, he had been in the Xiliang army for a long time, and he had cultivated the Xiliang general's confidence in his bravery.
"Die me!" Xu Rong stabbed Yang Yansi with a gun, trying to kill the Han general who blocked the way.
"Hmph!" Yang Yansi sneered, and without speaking, the tiger-headed black golden spear moved and stabbed directly at Xu Rong's heart.With just one shot, it pierced Xu Rong's heart.
"Ah!" Xu Rong screamed and fell down.
"General!"
The Xiliang soldiers beside Xu Rong suddenly turned pale with shock.
"Revenge for the general! Go for me!" The Xiliang military academy lieutenant took over Xu Rong's command and ordered the Xiliang army to rush down the official road.
But Yang Yansi was extremely brave and had a thousand cavalry beside him, no matter how the Xiliang army charged, they could only be suppressed in the mountain depression.On the other hand, Yang Zaixing's official path on the left is also guarded by one man, and no one can open it.
"What should I do if I can't rush down?" Xiliang soldiers were anxious like ants on a hot pot.
The school lieutenant looked back and saw that the fire in the mountain depression was gradually getting smaller, but seeing the lush greenery on the mountain, he had an idea: "Don't rush, go up the mountain!"
A group of Xiliang soldiers turned around one after another and rushed up the mountain.Seeing this, the Xiliang army on the other side also rushed up the mountain.
"Don't run away!" Yang Yansi wanted to chase after him with his horse.
"General Xiaoqi, don't chase after him, they won't be able to escape when the fire burns into the forest!" Cao Cao hurriedly called out to stop Yang Yansi.
People are always irresistible in the face of natural disasters, not to mention how can people run past a roaring fire dragon in a fire?The Xiliang army fled to the mountains and forests, but they found their own way of death.
Sure enough, the Xiliang army rushed past the fire in the mountain depression and fled to the mountain forest. The fire in the mountain depression gradually decreased, and a series of flames gradually spread behind the Xiliang army and burned up the mountain.
And Xiahouyuan and Xiahoudun also detoured down the official road from the mountains and forests, and returned to Cao Cao with their troops.
"Brother, it's really fun to set the fire. The Xiliang army wanted to burn us to death, but we roasted us instead!" Xiahou Dun laughed loudly.
"Yuan Rang, don't be too happy. Zhang Liao in front must have noticed the movement here. When their army arrives, we will not be their opponents. It is better to prepare early!" Cao Cao said in a deep voice.
"Anyway, we have taken advantage of it. I am afraid that the [-] Xiliang troops will not be able to escape the sea of flames! Why don't we withdraw our troops!" Xia Houyuan suggested.
Sure enough, as soon as Cao Cao finished speaking, there was a sound of horseshoes in the west.
Cao Cao glanced around, the fire in the mountain depression had already started, revealing the rolling stones prepared by the Xiliang army inside.Dry wood shrubs can only burn for a while, but they don't burn as long as trees.
"Ha, I'm waiting for a big victory, and it's time to show off my power, how can I retreat so easily!" Cao Cao said with a smirk.
"What is General Cao going to do?" Yang Yansi saw that the burning Xiliang army was terrified, so he retreated in desperation without thinking.
"There are rolling stones on both sides of the col. Push all the rolling stones down to block the official road!" Cao Cao said calmly while sitting on his horseback.
"Haha, well, the Xiliang army will be mad at them!" Xiahou Dun laughed.
As soon as he said it, Xiahou Dun immediately ran up the col, picked up the rolling stone and threw it down.
"Hey, I'm scalding to death!" Xiahoudun picked up the rolling stone, and immediately dropped it, but the fire just now burned the rolling stone in the mountain depression red.
"Haha, Yuan Rang didn't move this, can't it just be kicked?" Yang Yansi also climbed up the mountain col, and kicked a rolling stone of about [-] catties down the official road with one kick.
Yang Zaixing and Xia Houyuan also climbed up the other side of the mountain and kicked the rolling stones down the official road one by one.
Although the Han army was not as capable as Yang Zaixing and the others, they worked together to pry the rolling stones off the official road one by one with long spears.
After a while, a man-high stone wall was piled up on the official road, and only when riding on a war horse could one see the situation on the opposite side.
Yang Zaixing and the others had just descended from the mountain pass and got on their horses when they saw Zhang Liao, Xue Andu and others leading the cavalry galloping towards them.
"Hey, this is so satisfying, killing the Xiliang dog thief, but they have nothing to do!" Lin Yu laughed while sitting on the horse.
I have something to do at night, the two chapters are combined into one, about [-] words.
(End of this chapter)
Cao Cao excitedly patted Lin Yu's shoulder and said, "Your words are right, this time you first rescued the princess, and then discovered the Xiliang army's ambush. You really did a great job!"
"The plan of the Xiliang army was to lure our army into the depths, so he threw away his helmet and armor to lure us to continue the pursuit, and then he returned to the army to fight with us, while the Xiliang army hidden on both sides of the mountain threw dry firewood on the official road, Rolling Stone, when the time comes, we will set the fire, and then we will have no way out, we can only be burned alive!"
After Cao Cao thought about it for a while, he revealed the intention of the Xiliang Army.
"It's such a vicious strategy. If it wasn't for Lin Yu, if we walked over in a daze, I'm afraid we would be buried in the sea of fire!" Xia Houdun said with lingering fear.
"Haha, now that I know the intentions of the Xiliang soldiers in advance, I'm afraid it's not us, but them who were buried in the flames!" Cao Cao laughed loudly.
"General Cao has a plan to deal with Xiliang soldiers?" Lin Yu immediately asked excitedly.
"That's right, but you can't participate anymore. Now that the princess is here, you have to escort her back!" Cao Cao looked at Lin Yu and smiled.

Lin Yu was quite loved and valued by Liu Bian. Cao Cao knew that Liu Bian had a crush on Lin Yu, not to mention that Princess Wannian was also here. Cao Cao did not dare to let the two of them take risks, so he asked Lin Yu to escort Princess Wannian back to Luoyang.
"Cao Mengde, do you look down on me? I have been learning swordsmanship from Master Wang since I was a child. When it comes to kung fu, you are no match for me.

"But there are tens of thousands of Zhang Liao's Xiliang army in Xingyang. What if they find out that there is a fire here and come back to help?" Xia Houyuan frowned.
"Fighting on the battlefield is ever-changing. If everything goes according to the plan, how can we fight? Let's plunder Xu Rong's 2 men who are in ambush first, and then play by ear!" Cao Cao said in a deep voice.

"Look over there, it's General Meng De coming!" Lin Yu said, pointing to the sky full of smoke and dust rising in front of the official road.
Xiahou Dun followed Lin Yu's direction and saw Cao Cao leading three thousand cavalry emerging from the official road, followed by dust flying all over the sky.
"Come on, let me set the fire! Burn these Xiliang thieves to death!" Xia Houdun immediately led the Han army, and went down quietly, preparing to set fire to the mountain.

"No, there's a fire behind us!"
"what happened?"
"Who set the fire?"
At this time, the weather was dry, the bushes were overgrown, and there was a lot of withered grass. In order to deal with the Han army, Xiliang soldiers accumulated a lot of dry firewood in the mountain depression.With the fire together, the mountain depressions on both sides suddenly burned.On the contrary, most of the mountain peaks are towering ancient trees, which cannot be burned for a while.
"Kill me!"
Yang Zaixing and Yang Yansi, each leading a thousand Han troops, charged towards the cols on both sides.
But after a while, raging fires ignited in the cols on both sides.On both sides, [-] Xiliang soldiers were engulfed in flames.
Before the battle, many Xiliang soldiers were burned by the fire, and the Xiliang soldiers suddenly became chaotic, screaming and shouting.
"General, what should we do?" The lieutenant next to Xu Rong waved his spear, desperately flying the dry wood and bushes around him, and looked anxiously at Xu Rong.

"Follow me!" Xu Rong held a spear, and was about to rush down the official road with the Xiliang soldiers who were deeply engulfed in flames behind him.
In the mountain forest, Lin Yu saw that Xu Rong was about to break through, and was about to rush down to fight with a spear in his hand, but was stopped by Lin Yu.
"General Yuan Rang, why are you dragging me?" Lin Yu looked at Xiahou Dun suspiciously.
"You're dying, kid?" Xiahou Dun scolded.
"Charging downward at this time, we can cooperate with General Cao internally and externally, and wipe out the Xiliang traitors in one fell swoop!" Lin Yu was puzzled.
"As the saying goes, fire and water are ruthless. Even if there are many soldiers and horses, they can't resist these two things! Didn't you see the bushes in the mountain depression?

Xiahou Dun explained.
"Now we should go down the mountain quickly and avoid the fire on the official road! Mengde has already guarded the official road below, these Xiliang soldiers deserve to be burned to death by the fire!"
Lin Yu looked towards the col, and saw that the fire was fierce and tight, and the dry wood was burning, like fire dragons, sweeping over the Xiliang army, causing the Xiliang army to scream again and again.
Lin Yu couldn't help shivering. If he attacked at this time, once he was entangled by Xiliang soldiers, his army might also be buried in the flames.
"Quick, let's withdraw then!" Lin Yu said hastily.
"Let's go, brothers, retreat!" Xiahou Dun waved his big hand, leading the Han army to detour and retreat down the mountain.At the same time, on the other side of the mountain, Xia Houyuan, who set fire to the fire, also led the Han army to withdraw to the official road by detour.
Below, Xu Rong led the Xiliang army to rush down the official road.
Where Xu Rong is located is the col on the right, above the official road, guarded by Yang Yansi.Xu Rong didn't know Yang Yansi, and thought he was an unknown person. Although Xu Rong had no horses, he had been in the Xiliang army for a long time, and he had cultivated the Xiliang general's confidence in his bravery.
"Die me!" Xu Rong stabbed Yang Yansi with a gun, trying to kill the Han general who blocked the way.
"Hmph!" Yang Yansi sneered, and without speaking, the tiger-headed black golden spear moved and stabbed directly at Xu Rong's heart.With just one shot, it pierced Xu Rong's heart.
"Ah!" Xu Rong screamed and fell down.
"General!"
The Xiliang soldiers beside Xu Rong suddenly turned pale with shock.
"Revenge for the general! Go for me!" The Xiliang military academy lieutenant took over Xu Rong's command and ordered the Xiliang army to rush down the official road.
But Yang Yansi was extremely brave and had a thousand cavalry beside him, no matter how the Xiliang army charged, they could only be suppressed in the mountain depression.On the other hand, Yang Zaixing's official path on the left is also guarded by one man, and no one can open it.
"What should I do if I can't rush down?" Xiliang soldiers were anxious like ants on a hot pot.
The school lieutenant looked back and saw that the fire in the mountain depression was gradually getting smaller, but seeing the lush greenery on the mountain, he had an idea: "Don't rush, go up the mountain!"
A group of Xiliang soldiers turned around one after another and rushed up the mountain.Seeing this, the Xiliang army on the other side also rushed up the mountain.
"Don't run away!" Yang Yansi wanted to chase after him with his horse.
"General Xiaoqi, don't chase after him, they won't be able to escape when the fire burns into the forest!" Cao Cao hurriedly called out to stop Yang Yansi.
People are always irresistible in the face of natural disasters, not to mention how can people run past a roaring fire dragon in a fire?The Xiliang army fled to the mountains and forests, but they found their own way of death.
Sure enough, the Xiliang army rushed past the fire in the mountain depression and fled to the mountain forest. The fire in the mountain depression gradually decreased, and a series of flames gradually spread behind the Xiliang army and burned up the mountain.
And Xiahouyuan and Xiahoudun also detoured down the official road from the mountains and forests, and returned to Cao Cao with their troops.
"Brother, it's really fun to set the fire. The Xiliang army wanted to burn us to death, but we roasted us instead!" Xiahou Dun laughed loudly.
"Yuan Rang, don't be too happy. Zhang Liao in front must have noticed the movement here. When their army arrives, we will not be their opponents. It is better to prepare early!" Cao Cao said in a deep voice.
"Anyway, we have taken advantage of it. I am afraid that the [-] Xiliang troops will not be able to escape the sea of flames! Why don't we withdraw our troops!" Xia Houyuan suggested.
Sure enough, as soon as Cao Cao finished speaking, there was a sound of horseshoes in the west.
Cao Cao glanced around, the fire in the mountain depression had already started, revealing the rolling stones prepared by the Xiliang army inside.Dry wood shrubs can only burn for a while, but they don't burn as long as trees.
"Ha, I'm waiting for a big victory, and it's time to show off my power, how can I retreat so easily!" Cao Cao said with a smirk.
"What is General Cao going to do?" Yang Yansi saw that the burning Xiliang army was terrified, so he retreated in desperation without thinking.
"There are rolling stones on both sides of the col. Push all the rolling stones down to block the official road!" Cao Cao said calmly while sitting on his horseback.
"Haha, well, the Xiliang army will be mad at them!" Xiahou Dun laughed.
As soon as he said it, Xiahou Dun immediately ran up the col, picked up the rolling stone and threw it down.
"Hey, I'm scalding to death!" Xiahoudun picked up the rolling stone, and immediately dropped it, but the fire just now burned the rolling stone in the mountain depression red.
"Haha, Yuan Rang didn't move this, can't it just be kicked?" Yang Yansi also climbed up the mountain col, and kicked a rolling stone of about [-] catties down the official road with one kick.
Yang Zaixing and Xia Houyuan also climbed up the other side of the mountain and kicked the rolling stones down the official road one by one.
Although the Han army was not as capable as Yang Zaixing and the others, they worked together to pry the rolling stones off the official road one by one with long spears.
After a while, a man-high stone wall was piled up on the official road, and only when riding on a war horse could one see the situation on the opposite side.
Yang Zaixing and the others had just descended from the mountain pass and got on their horses when they saw Zhang Liao, Xue Andu and others leading the cavalry galloping towards them.
"Hey, this is so satisfying, killing the Xiliang dog thief, but they have nothing to do!" Lin Yu laughed while sitting on the horse.
I have something to do at night, the two chapters are combined into one, about [-] words.
