Cao Thief

Chapter 313 Hebei Four Court Columns (13)

The wind and snow stopped, and the sky and the earth were white and vast.

The sun in the depths of winter may seem bright, but in fact, it exudes a deep chill.This is also Yan Dong's last ravages in Jian'an for four years, but it is horribly cold, so cold that people feel uncomfortable, so cold that people... can't explain, don't understand.

On the official road from Puyang to Baima, a group of sergeants was marching fast.

The hot breath exhaled from the war horse's mouth was especially clear in the freezing temperature.Exhaling into ice does not seem to be an adjective.

Xu Huang kept urging the soldiers and horses to move faster, feeling even more restless in his heart.

Yuan Shaojun's sudden attack at the end of the year was beyond everyone's expectations.Before Yuan Shao stood still and even retreated a hundred miles, many people thought that Yuan Shao would not attack at least a few years ago.Among these people, Xu Huang is also one of them... No one expected that Yuan Shao's strategy of retreating into advance would confuse many people.Just when everyone was unprepared, they crossed the river by force.

Yuan Shao's move was quite thunderous.

At least in Xu Huang's view, there is a huge change from Yuan Shao's previous behavior.

Brilliant!
Xu Huang couldn't help feeling sincerely, and at the same time felt strange, who made such a plan for Yuan Shao?

"How far is it from Baima?"

"Go back to the general. At this speed, we can reach Baima before noon."

"I don't know if Taishou Liu can hold on."

Xu Huang took a deep breath, looked back at the marching soldiers and horses behind him, and said in a deep voice, "Order the three armies to speed up the march and make sure to reach the white horse before noon."

"Here!"

The messenger galloped away, but Xu Huang felt even more uneasy in his heart.

But he couldn't tell exactly what went wrong, so he could only urge the soldiers and horses to speed up and retake the white horse as soon as possible.

From Puyang to Baima, you must pass through a dry river beach.

During the Warring States period, Lian Po, the general of the State of Zhao, stationed troops here, so it was named Zhao Ying.

The terrain of the river beach is flat and there is no dangerous terrain.In addition, the river bed dried up, making a wilderness with a radius of tens of miles outside the city extremely deserted.

Zhaoying is 36 miles away from Baima and [-] miles away from Puyang, right in the middle of the two places.

Walking to this place, Xu Huang took a deep breath and was about to order to speed up.Suddenly, a scout came flying and stopped in front of him.

"General, there is a group of people ahead, blocking our way."

"Oh?"

Xu Huang was startled, and shouted in a deep voice, "Where are the soldiers?"

"Looking at the banner, it seems to be Yuan Shao's general, Yan Liang's troops."

Yan Liang?

Xu Huang took a deep breath in his heart, showing vigilance.

As early as when Yang Feng was working under Yang Feng's account, he had heard of Yuan Shao's powerful general Ruyun.Among them, the four are the most prominent, named Hebei Sitingzhu.These four people are Zhang He Gaolan from Hejian and Yan Liangwenchou from Yecheng.Among them, Yan Liangwen Chou is the most brave, known as Hebei Double Arms.It means that these two people are like Yuan Shao's right-hand men, with prominent positions.

Back then, the princes of the 22nd Route attacked Dong Zhuo.

He was blocked by Hua Xiong at Sishui Pass, and even killed more than a dozen generals of the Guandong Allied Forces.

Yuan Shao once said: If my general Yan Liangwen is ugly, how can Hua Xiong be arrogant?Later, this Huaxiong was planned by Sun Jian and beheaded in Guanxia, ​​and Sun Jian became famous because of this, becoming a leader among the princes.But because of this, Sun Jian and Yuan Shu formed a grudge...

Xu Huang is a very steady person. Hearing that Yan Liang led his troops to block the way, he knew that something was wrong.

Could it be that the white horse has been broken?

Thinking of this, he immediately ordered, "The three armies stop and line up to meet the enemy."

At this time, Xu Huang could not retreat, but could only move forward.

If he withdrew his troops, Yan Liang would definitely take advantage of the situation to cover up and kill him... If that happens, his side is bound to be defeated.So, stabilize your position first, and then make plans.

Just as Xu Huang ordered the formation, Yan Liang led the soldiers and horses, and they were already approaching.

That Yan Liang jumped off the horse. He was eight feet tall, with broad arms and round waist, majestic and majestic.There is a black horse under the crotch, with a big knife in the palm, majestic and murderous.

The two armies lined up to face each other, Yan Liang urged his horse and rushed out of the flag gate.

"A certain Yan Liang, is Xu Gongming here?"

At this time, Xu Huang naturally couldn't show the slightest timidity, so he urged his horse to the front of the formation.

"Yan Liang, Xu Huang is here."

"Xu Gongming, I don't want to talk nonsense with you. Today, my lord is following the emperor's edict to send troops to fight against rebellion. He wants to clear the emperor's side and revitalize the court. The white horse has been captured by me now, and Liu Yan has become the soul of a certain family. If you Be smart, get off your horse and surrender immediately, I can speak well for you in front of the lord, and protect you from a high position and rich salary... But if you are stubborn, then don't blame a certain family and send you to be with Liu Yan as a companion."

Liu Yan was indeed killed!

Xu Huang's heart trembled, and he suddenly yelled, "Yan Liangxiu is going to be insane... Mr. Cao obeyed the emperor's order to refuse to be a minister, which is what everyone expects. Your old man Yuan Shao came from the family of four generations and three princes, and he was favored by the court, but he didn't know Serve the imperial court, support the soldiers and respect yourself, then you are the real national traitor. A certain family is loved by Cao Gong, how can you be the vicious dog in front of Yuan Benchu? Yan Liang, wait for me to kill you and avenge Liu Taishou."

After finishing speaking, Xu Huang took off the iron box, urged the horse and rushed towards Yan Liang.

Yan Liang was also furious, and Lun Dao went to meet him.The iron hooves trampled on the river beach, and ice shards flew up... Although they had never fought against each other, Xu Huang felt something was wrong with the charge of the two.Yan Liang's man and horse united as one, like a tiger descending the mountain, with an astonishing momentum.

This kind of confrontation before the battle, the momentum is particularly important.

As soon as Yan Liang's sword came out, Xu Huang knew that this guy was better than himself.

However, he was unable to retreat, because at this point, he had no way out... If he retreated, a defeat would inevitably ensue.All he can rely on now is the BMW under his crotch.But I don't know, with Cao Ji's three treasures in the horse, can he deal with Yan Liang?At this time, the saddles, stirrups and horseshoes presented by Cao Ji were only used in a small area.In addition to tiger and leopard cavalry, those confidant generals under Cao Cao's command, or super-class generals can be equipped with such equipment.Xu Huang is also one of them.

The two war horses neighed and met each other in an instant.

Xu Huang didn't say anything, just stabbed when he was distracted.

This stab came out, and Tiekong brought a howl, as fast as lightning.

But that Yan Liang chuckled, turned the big knife outwards, and was chopping on the ridge of the iron basket.The huge force caused Xu Huang to sway involuntarily on the horse, and his arm suddenly went numb.The iron basket sank downward and lost its direction.While the two horses continued to charge, Yan Liang's broadsword pressed Xu Huang's iron basket, flipped over, pushed upward along the pole of the basket, and wiped out horizontally.Xu Huang felt extremely uncomfortable switching from dignified to light and agile.I just felt the iron scorpion in my hand loosen, followed by the big knife and wiped it over.He was so frightened that he hastily erected the iron scorpion, and with an iron door bolt, it cracked open with Yan Liang's lightning-like blow... Afterwards, the two horses kicked off and separated.

Hands trembling slightly, Xu Huang swallowed.

He turned the horse's head, gritted his teeth, and charged out again.

But Yan Liang laughed and said: "Xu Gongming, his skills are not weak, but it's a pity that he is not a certain opponent."

In terms of strength, Yan Liang is much stronger than Xu Huang.Although both of them belonged to that kind of super-class fierce generals, but within the super-class, they also had a share in enthronement.Like Yan Liang, who is almost above the middle level, but Xu Huang is only above the bottom.Although there is only such a small gap, it is enough to kill a person in a confrontation.If it weren't for the three treasures of the horse, Xu Huang might have lost his life just now.Relying on the load-bearing force of the stirrups, he sat firmly on the horse.This time, he no longer dared to keep any strength to fight with Yan Liang.

Fighting generals is a method of warfare that can greatly improve morale.

Although formation and tactics have been emphasized since the beginning of the Han Dynasty, fighting generals is still the most important part of the confrontation between the two armies.

Relying on the three treasures of the horse, Xu Huang and Yan Liang fought for more than [-] rounds, but they were still tied.Yan Liang's broadsword is suddenly as fast as lightning, and sometimes it is as solemn as a mountain, and its speed is unpredictable... Xu Huang gritted his teeth, and an iron basket flew up and down, whistling.

After the two fought for thirty rounds, Xu Huang suddenly heard that there was chaos in the rear of the formation.

He quickly flinched and jumped out of the battle ring.

Looking up at the formation, I saw an iron cavalry, about a thousand people, rushing into the formation roaring.

The leading general, with a black helmet and black armor, a horse with a green mane under his crotch, and a Zhangba Snake Spear in his palm...

"Xu Gongming will leave, and Zhang Fei from Yan is here."

It's Zhang Fei!
Xu Huang was shocked, and hurriedly pulled on his horse to rescue him.

But how could Yan Liang allow him to escape, so he urged the horse to stop him.

"Xu Gongming, your opponent is me, where are you going?"

The big ring knife whistled, and there was the sound of wind and thunder, and the knife cloud rolled.Xu Huang was already two points weaker than Yan Liang, and it was a tie with his equipment.But now, with a fierce tiger appearing behind him, Xu Huang didn't have the heart to fight fiercely. After only seven or eight rounds, he was killed by Yan Liang, sweating profusely and embarrassed.

On the other side, Zhang Fei's snake spear flew, and the spear saw blood.

Yan Liang's trilogy also launched a charge, killing Cao Jun to the point of defeat.

Zhang Fei smiled grimly, and charged at Xu Huang with his spear, "Xu Gongming, take your life."

A Yan Liang, already made Xu Huang almost unable to resist, if adding Zhang Fei...

Xu Huang was not a person who didn't know how to advance and retreat. He suddenly exerted force on the iron box in his hand, and the gun and the horse were fast. After forcing Yan Liang back with three shots in a row, he pulled the horse and left.

As soon as he left, Cao Jun was leaderless, and he was defeated in an instant.

Yan Liang and Zhang Fei joined forces, without saying a word, they chased for ten li before giving up.

Xu Huang's defeat was really miserable.

When he set off from Puyang, he brought nearly 4000 people with him, but after breaking out of the siege, there were only 700 people around him...

Since the white horse has been lost, it is necessary to return to Puyang as soon as possible and report to Xu Du.

Thinking of this, Xu Huang didn't dare to stay, and retreated towards Puyang with the defeated soldiers.

By evening, Puyang City was already in sight.

Xu Huang breathed a sigh of relief, immediately whipped his whip, came outside the city gate, and shouted sharply: "Who is on duty in the city, open the city quickly!"

The soldiers on the top of the city took a look with their heads.

"Ah, it's General Xu, open the city gate, open the city gate."

With a series of shouts, the city gate creaked and opened a crack.Xu Huang was about to enter the city, but saw a fast horse coming from the city gate like a stroke.Immediately, the general was nine feet tall, wearing a parrot-green war robe, and held a nine-foot-five-inch long sword in his palm.

"Xu Huang, Guan Yu has been waiting for you for a long time, watch the knife!"

Before the words finished, the visitor had already arrived in front of Xu Huang.

The machete in his palm fell with a whimper, and an afterimage was seen passing by, and the machete had already arrived in front of him.

Fortunately, the moment Xu Huang opened the city gate, he instinctively felt something was wrong, so he reined in his horse and took a step back.When Guan Yu rushed to the front, he quickly raised his hand to block it.Hearing the sound of a clang, Ma Xiyuyu hissed and stepped back again and again...

A huge force came from the iron basket, which made Xu Huang unable to bear it.

A mouthful of blood spurted out, and Xu Huang pulled his horse away.

"There is an ambush, go quickly!"

Xu Huang leaned on the horse's back and urged the horse to gallop away.

Seeing that Xu Huang's life could not be killed with a single blow, Guan Yu was furious and urged his horse to give chase.

Dozens of Cao Jun swarmed up and stopped Guan Yu.Guan Yu became even more angry, and his sword flew in the air like snowflakes, whistling.

At this time, a group of soldiers and horses also rushed out from the city, and together with Guan Yu, they quickly chopped dozens of Cao Jun into pieces.

Xu Huang has already run away...

Guan Yu urged his horse to chase him, but he heard someone on the tower say: "Second brother, don't chase after poor bandits... I just need to occupy Puyang."

Looking up, I saw a middle-aged man appearing on the top of the wall, it was Liu Bei and Liu Xuande.

Guan Yu was really obedient to Liu Bei.He reined in his horse, twirled his long beard and smiled, "Since brother has ordered, let Xu Gongming go for once."

The two looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

Liu Bei's eyes were burning, revealing a touch of joy: Now, finally, I will get back a game from that thief Cao!

--------------------------

"Puyang fell?"

In Zhijinwu's Yamen, Cao Peng looked at Jia Xu in astonishment.

Today he came to submit the inspection documents to the Northern Army, but he didn't want to be held back by Jia Xu, who told him that the White Horse had fallen and that Puyang had fallen into Yuan Shao's hands.

Slow down, something is wrong!

Cao Peng desperately recalled the Battle of Guandu in his memory.

Historically, the early battles of the Battle of Guandu did include the Battle of the White Horse.

However, in the Battle of the White Horse, Cao Cao seemed to have only lost the White Horse, not Puyang.But this time, why did Puyang even fall?

History, it seems, has undergone some minor changes.

Don't underestimate this small change, but it made Cao Cao's situation even more sinister.

In history, Yuan Shao captured Baima to ensure the smooth movement of the army south; but now, the loss of Puyang is equivalent to the separation of Cao Cao's east barrier.Cao Cao had some troubles in Yanzhou.Beheading Bian Rang at the beginning made the relationship between him and Yanzhou scholars tense.

So when Cao Cao attacked Xuzhou, Lu Bu occupied Puyang without any effort and caused chaos in Yanzhou.

Today, the situation in Yanzhou has improved a lot, but it does not mean that the relationship between Cao Cao and the scholars in Yanzhou has been restored.If Yanzhou is in turmoil...

Cao Peng couldn't help but gasp!
"The fall of Puyang disrupted Duke Cao's deployment in Qingzhou.

Although Zang Xuangao is capable, but this person's eyelids are sharp, so he should not be trusted.Previously, with Puyang in hand, and Yu Wenze's military restraint, Zang Ba might not have any ideas.But now, Puyang was lost, and Yu Jin's flank was already threatened, so he probably couldn't take care of himself. "

After Jia Xu finished speaking, she looked at Cao Peng with a smile.

"Youxue, do you have an idea?"
